India's Nehal Chudasama failed to make it to the Top 20 of the Miss Universe 2018 pageant, where
Catriona Elisa Gray from Philippines pipped 93 contestants from around the world to emerge the
winner -- as chosen by an all-women jury.
India had pinned high hopes on Nehal, 22, to end a long drought for the country at the pageant as
Lara Dutta had last brought back the crown in 2000.
