"When I first walked into I-GLAM's Patna center, I was terrified. I had no formal training, no portfolio, and absolutely no idea how pageants actually worked. I just knew I had a dream — and that dream felt impossibly far away."
This is how Disha — I-GLAM Miss Bihar 2022 and now a trainer and team member at I-GLAM — describes her beginning.
Starting from Zero Confidence
Disha's story is one of the most powerful examples of what the right training, the right environment, and the right belief can do for an aspiring model from rural Bihar. Coming from Darbhanga with no industry connections and no prior experience, she represents exactly who I-GLAM was built for.
The Turning Point
"The moment everything changed for me was during my first mock pageant at I-GLAM. I made every mistake imaginable — I stumbled on the ramp, blanked on a Q&A question, and nearly walked off stage. But instead of being made to feel terrible, my trainers sat with me for an hour after and broke down exactly what to work on. That moment of specific, constructive feedback — I knew I was in the right place."
The Training Journey
Over four months at I-GLAM Bihar, Disha's transformation was systematic and deliberate:
- Ramp walk sessions six days a week
- Daily Q&A practice with recorded reviews
- Wardrobe consultations and personal styling guidance
- Skincare and grooming education from certified experts
- Mock interviews with external judges
- A community of fellow students and trainers genuinely invested in her success
"I-GLAM doesn't just train your walk. They train your mind, your presence, and your belief in yourself."
The Competition
"Walking out for the evening gown round, I felt completely ready. Not because I was perfect — but because I knew exactly what I had prepared, I trusted my training, and I had done it all dozens of times in practice. The actual competition felt almost easier than the mock pageants."
Disha won the I-GLAM Miss Bihar 2022 title and went on to represent Bihar at national level competitions — a journey that began with one nervous walk through I-GLAM's Patna door.
What She Wants You to Know
"Where you are from does not limit where you can go. I am from Darbhanga. I had no connections, no industry background, and no money for expensive coaching elsewhere. I-GLAM gave me a genuine chance — and I took it with everything I had. You can do exactly the same."
Disha is now part of the I-GLAM family as a trainer, paying forward the mentorship she received.
