Myra who had applied for the event in November 2016, polled the maximum number of ‘LIKES’, ‘MENTIONS’, ‘RETWEETS’ and ‘SHARES’ on her selfies on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram to be the undisputed leader of the pack. Says Myra, “I love clicking selfies. I found a refernce of the online pageant and I just clicked about two dozen selfies and uploaded them. I never expected to win. However, thanks to all my friends, who voted for me, I am the winner of the Miss Pune Selfie Queen and Ms Pune Online 2017. My next step is Miss Maharashtra and Miss Mumbai and I am participating in both the events.”
