Imphal, Nov 8 : Showing her humanitarian side, Miss Kut 2008 Moirangthem Minerva visited the Mahila Kalyan Samiti, the oldest orphanage at Dewlahland today where she distributed sweetmeats and snack items to the inmates.
Incidentally, boxer Ng Dingko who won gold in Bangkok Asian Games grew up here.
Eighteen year old and standing 5′6″, Minerva is not only a beauty but an athlete too.
Before taking up modelling, she was a talented fencer.
She won gold in the Sub-Junior National Fencing Championship held at Patiala in 2003 .
Destined as she was to become a model and an actor, Minerva had to give up sports as her doctor advised not to practice fencing for six months following a problem in her right wrist.
Minerva belonging to Khurai Soibam Leikai is currently doing her pre-university course.
Days after winning the coveted Miss Kut title, Minerva is now flooded with offers for acting in Manipuri feature films.
Talking about the sudden inflow of film offers, Minerva said that she had signed all the contracts so that she could earn enough money to help orphan and destitute children.
“I would love to see them utilise the money I donated for their welfare”, said Minerva adding that she shall donate 50 percent of all her earnings to orphanages.
She is not new to film acting.
Minerva had already acted in some feature films and she would be going to Myanmar next month for shooting a Manipuri film there.
Th fact that Minerva is not a beauty without brain was testified by her witty answer in the final round of the Miss Kut contest.
To a question regarding her preference between her boyfriend and parents, Minerva said, “I prefer my boyfriend for I would live with him for my whole life while my life with my parents would be much shorter”.
