Vishnu Raj Menon’s Road to Success Is a Story of Grit and Greatness

Vishnu Raj Menon’s journey from a civil engineering aspirant to Mr India World 2018 title winner is a story that has resilience and determination written all over it. His triumph over adversity to clinch one of the prestigious is remarkable. He, in a very short span of time, has managed to carve a niche for himself.

Vishnu, who hails from Pattikkad, Thrissur, Kerala, found himself struggling physically and emotionally when a medical setback struck, only to drastically change his life, pushing him to work even harder to reach the limelight.

His pageant win was historic, as he became the first Mr India of Malayali descent to win the prestigious national pageant. It also opened doors to the global stage as he went on to represent India at Mr World in Manila.

Vishnu’s journey was far from easy. Between balancing a demanding engineering course, rigorous fitness training, and modelling lessons, he even overcame early social media trolling over his darker complexion by embracing it and becoming an inspiration for others. In a previous interview, Vishnu described his pageantry experience, saying, “Mr India was difficult, but it truly improved me a lot.”

Vishnu faced his fair share of challenges during his journey to glory and rose above all the obstacles that lay before him. If you believe you have what it takes, you can also create your own path and become the next Mr India. Vishnu found his calling, Mr India 2025 Season 2 can be yours!
