Guyana’s representative at this year’s Miss World competition Ambika Ramraj is one of 20 contestants to have secured a spot in the talent final, bringing her closer to clinching a place in overall pageant final, from among the 120 young women contesting.
For the preliminary talent contest, Ambika did a dance portraying the goddess Durga in her highest elements of strength and power as she battled and conquered the evil in the world. The dance illustrated the battles one deals with daily in overcoming fears and obstacles and shining through in beauty by the strength gained from the struggles of life. The dance genre was classical Indian fusion. To prepare for it, Ambika worked closely with dancer/choreographer Roshini Boodhoo-Persaud and international dancer Zaman Mahamed Amin.
