Early Life
As per a report, Harnaaz was born in Gurdaspur, Punjab before shifting to the capital, Chandigarh. She’s been raised there and is the pride of the family. Sandhu is the only girl amongst 17 brothers (including extended family), naturally making her the apple of their eyes.
Harnaaz always had her goal set on modelling and found herself living her dream when she was crowned Miss Chandigarh in 2017. She also participated in the Miss Max Emerging Star India pageantry in 2018, held at Infinity Mall in Malad, Mumbai.
Hidden Talents
Harnaaz isn’t just all beauty and brains but she’s a whole lot of fun too! Our very own Miss Universe 2021 can apparently mimic almost anyone, including animals! A report also shares that she can write couplets in her mother tongue, Punjabi.
Social Work
Harnaaz is all about spreading awareness of mental health, hand hygiene, menstrual hygiene, and gender equality. Sourced from a report, we learnt that she recently started her social mission on the ImpactWayv app. This platform operates as an entirely new kind of digital ecosystem, enabling users to effect, engage in and share social impact on a global scale.
