During the Femina Miss India pageant, Suman had opened on her thoughts about gender equality. She was quoted as saying, “I come from a community where gender inequality and other stereotypes are still into existence, so when I saw two primary choices in front of me, to either accept the conditions those were in existence or to take the responsibility for changing the same, I chose the latter one.” Miss World 2019 Winner Toni-Ann Singh of Jamaica Sang a Beautiful Rendition of Whitney Houston's 'I Have Nothing' on Stage.
