Urvashi Rautela Defends Wearing Inspired Tiranga Outfit After Severe Backlash; Says, "I Carry My Country With Me Not Merely As Nationality

Urvashi Rautela defended her tricolour-inspired gown at the Miss Universe India event in Jaipur, calling it a couture tribute and an expression of identity rather than a literal reproduction of the national flag. Designed by Darya Chermashentseva, the outfit drew criticism over Flag Code and related laws that prohibit misuse or disrespect of the flag, which can attract fines or imprisonment.
