Mrs India North, Deepti Mahat, is a dedicated educationist with almost 15 years of work experience. Known for her contribution in charting success stories of hundreds of students as well as working professionals, she has donned various roles. She is a renowned career counsellor, a corporate trainer, marketing manager, teacher trainer, content developer, communication specialist and soft skills trainer. “My journey has just begun in the glamour world and I’m gearing up for Mrs India finale, which is going to be held in June,” she told The Tribune here today.

Mrs India was the first beauty pageant in which the 37-year-old M.Phil in English Literature from PU participated and emerged winner.

She is married to a police officer, Vishal Mahat, for 10 years and the couple is blessed with two daughters.

Hailing from Indora in Kangra (HP) and settled in Chandigarh, Deepti says: “If a woman decides to take up a task, she can achieve anything. I am thankful to God, my family and friends for believing in me and supporting me.” On her stint with modelling, Deepti says: “I think we all are role models already – as a daughter, mother, wife and friend. I have not done modelling at professional level yet. Juggling between office and work, I thought of reliving my childhood dream of becoming a beauty queen and that’s how I found out about Mrs India.”

“Since I am a corporate trainer, my personal experience proved helpful. Life has changed. Being recognised as Mrs India North and face of today’s women are important responsibilities to shoulder on. Life has become more wonderful and exciting now.”
