Puja Gupta faces flak after losing out on Miss Universe crown

With Puja Gupta not winning the Miss Universe crown, many comments such as "She did not deserve the crown" are floating around.

While Sabira Merchant, who helped Puja Gupta with her diction, says that Puja lacked the poise, fashion designer Rohit Bal reportedly said Puja did not deserve the crown, a fact he had known when he judged her at the Miss India event.

Before the Miss Universe all the experts were 100 per cent sure that Puja would bring home the crown, but no sooner than she lost, a different tune is being sung.

Is it a case of sour grapes?
