The header states she's born in 1979 bur the video shows otherwise

@nandopatoch Sorry, it's a typo error, should be 1979 instead of 1978.

of all Ms. India Universe for me she is the most beautiful and unforgettable her story maybe sad but one thing for sure she said "the biggest injustice in the world is to bring up a child into this world and not be able to offer his or her peace"...i feel that she needs peace especially during the time she is struggling and no one could offer it to her that is why she rather take peace by taking off her own life... truly beauty may it be inner or external will not last in this world.

Why did you put "Rest In Peach"? Now "Rest In Peace"?

[beautyconcious]

Seng1, all those men who treat Nafisa like **** ,they will have to answer some day . God does not sleep . RIP NJ.

Do you people think that a girl like Nafisa had died just because her boyfriend was cheating on her! She was very spiritually enriched girl.She could'nt take such drastic step on these sort of basis.I think the dark story is still unrevealed.

[sdeb3333]

her death was a loss for humanity ..

[sdeb3333]

she was incredibly sweet, smart, intelligent, & up all a true HUMAN BEING! "Woh nafisa kya thi tum .."
