During her stay in Mumbai for the shoot, Shreya along with other contestants was trained in different areas of fashion by people well known in their respective fields. Ramp walk training was given by Alison Kanuga- a name that does not require any introduction in the fashion world. Contemporary dance training was given by Akash Karnataki ,a well known Bollywood choreographer. During the pageant several subtitles were given to contestants. Shreya was crowned ‘Miss Beautiful Hair’ for her naturally healthy hair.

The finale was a huge star-studded event held in Mumbai and judged by Diana Hayden, Rocky S, Sangith Sivan- Bollywood and Malayalam film director, Alison Kanuga and Madhu Mantena- the producer of Ghajini. It was telecast Live On Channel 9x. Shreya was among the 5 girls who based on their performances in the talent round were chosen to perform live on the finale. After several rounds of catwalk, interaction with the judges and question and answer round Shreya was declared the first runner up. She thus proved her talent and intelligence and was crowned by Diana Hayden.

Based on her performance Shreya will participate in an International Teen Beauty Pageant to be held in U.S.A next year. Currently Shreya is fortunate to have many offers from the glamour world as a result of winning the pageant. She however gives education more importance and is currently a freshman pursuing an undergraduate degree in Physics and Economics at Tufts University in Boston on scholarship.
