A total of 400 women from North Bengal participated in Uttar-er Ananya — the hunt for women extraordinaire, organised by MPJ Jewellers in association with Anandabazar Patrika. Out of the 400, 10 were selected for the grand finale hosted on August 20 at the Royal Sarovar Portico, Siliguri. The finalists showcased their confidence, elegance and intelligence on the stage in different categories including the Eastern Wear and Western Wear rounds. A Q&A round also judged their mettle for the coveted pageant. The participants were groomed by supermodel and actress Ushoshi Sengupta.
