Chennai: Gopinath, a software engineer by profession, started his passion for modelling during 2017. And now a successful model by hard work, he has won the Mr India Asia Pacific 2020-21 title.
He was honoured with Rubaru Mr India which was a people choice awards voted by the common public.
To come to this position he has crossed many rounds such as fitness round, talent round, styling, attitude and behaviour, designer walk round, swimwear walk round and the final tuxedo round.
It was followed by the personal interview to test the IQ and current affairs to get to the final level.
Gopinath felt that talent round was the most difficult one compared to other rounds, but he was appreciated by the judges for his performance with over six yoga poses for two minutes and also for sword and silambam dance choreographed by him which portrayed Tamilnadu’s heritage.
He felt it was a difficult round since all the contestants performed very well on that day. He also won the fineness round in just 0.5 seconds. This was the 17th Rubaru contest which was held at Goa. There were 34 finalists.
