Sanghamitra Roy: Where Education, Art, and Leadership Meet

Some women build their lives in one city, one routine, one familiar rhythm.

And then there are women like Sanghamitra Roy—who have lived their story across towns, postings, and constant change… and still managed to bloom in every place they were planted.

She is an English teacher, a dancer, a choreographer, an emcee, a social contributor, and now—wearing her crown with quiet grace -Mrs India Charismatic Queen 2025–2026.

But if you ask her what she truly is, she will tell you something far simpler:

A woman who never stopped working hard.

Sanghamitra’s journey began in classrooms, where she chose not just to teach English—but to teach hope. She started teaching at an Army Welfare School, driven by a heartfelt purpose: to contribute to the dreams of soldiers’ wards. For her, education wasn’t just a profession—it was a responsibility.

Even while juggling family life and frequent relocations, she continued to grow academically and professionally. She completed her graduation, post-graduation, B.Ed, cleared competitive exams, and stepped into teaching with full commitment. Her dedication eventually led her to become a CBSE Resource Person, a role that only comes to those who are trusted not just to teach—but to uplift teaching itself.

While her professional life grew in classrooms, her artistic life grew in quiet practice. As a trained dancer and choreographer, Sanghamitra’s relationship with dance was built not on applause, but on years of silent dedication. And that discipline eventually opened doors that many would only dream of.

She choreographed moments that became part of national memory, including the G20 Summit welcome for the Italian Prime Minister and the grand Kargil Vijay Diwas ceremony, where the Hon’ble Prime Minister of India was the Chief Guest. These were not ordinary stages—these were moments where the entire nation watches, and Sanghamitra delivered each performance with remarkable grace and pride.

 There’s something deeply powerful about watching a shy person grow into a confident speaker. Sanghamitra describes herself as once being a shy, introverted girl. Yet today, she is someone who commands the microphone with poise.

As an emcee and panelist, she anchored and contributed to several meaningful platforms, including the book release “Nation First,” the Army Lit Fest “Abhibyakti,” and a panel discussion at the book release of “Am I Just a Baby Vending Machine?”

Struggles don’t always arrive dramatically. Sometimes they arrive early. Sanghamitra got married at 19, became a mother at 20, and was still in her second year of college. She calls herself a happy mother and a proud Army wife, but she also acknowledges what many women silently carry—the weight of responsibility when life begins early.

Yet she never stopped. She studied. She worked. She built her identity brick by brick—without ever walking away from her roles as a mother, wife, and daughter.

For most people, moving cities is stressful. For an Army wife, it is life. Sanghamitra’s biggest challenge has been the continuous shifting that comes with being married to an Army officer. But instead of letting it disrupt her growth, she made it her strength. In every new city and town, she adapted. She picked up whatever job opportunities were available. She kept studying. She kept moving forward. And she did what very few people can do: She turned instability into evolution.

Her pageantry journey began only a year ago. And like everything else in her life, it wasn’t a shortcut—it was a climb. After crossing multiple rounds, she became a National Finalist, and finally, on 21st December in Jaipur, she won the title of Mrs Charismatic Queen 2025–2026

For her, the crown wasn’t just a symbol of beauty. It was a symbol of years of discipline, resilience, and self-belief.

No strong woman stands alone, and Sanghamitra openly credits her strength to the people and inspirations that stood beside her throughout her journey. She acknowledges the constant support of her husband, Maj Gen Subrata Roy, the encouragement of her son, Soham, and the values instilled in her by her parents, whose upbringing shaped her mindset. Along the way, the poem “Invictus” also remained a powerful source of motivation for her through every phase of life.

Along the way, Sanghamitra’s work has been recognised across multiple fields including education, social welfare, environment, and leadership. Her honours include the title of Mrs India Charismatic Queen 2025–2026, the Teacher’s Award for Exemplary Teaching Skills (ICOSA, 2025), an International Award for Environment, an AWWA Award by the President of AWWA for educating Army wards during Covid, and another AWWA Award by the Regional President, Central Command for her oral health initiatives for children with special needs, including the creation of a handbook for CWSN children. Sanghamitra received the Army Chief s memento in 2024 and the operation sindoor badge from the Chief of Army Staff Gen Upendra Dwivedi PVSM AVSM for sending more than 10 k handmade rakhis for the soldiers on the borders. What truly stands out, however, is that she never chased awards—she chased impact, and the awards simply followed.

Even with a crown on her head, Sanghamitra’s dreams remain beautifully rooted in purpose. She wants to continue her journey as an English teacher, train soldiers’ wards in various ways, and keep touching lives through education. Alongside this, she hopes to begin dance workshops and classes, write more articles, spread more smiles, and continue being the Charismatic Queen—not just by title, but by spirit. Sanghamitra Roy’s story is not a fairytale; it is something far more inspiring—a real woman’s journey built through early responsibilities, constant change, quiet discipline, and unwavering work ethic. She is living proof that you can be many things at once: a mother, a teacher, an artist, a leader, a queen—and above all, a woman who never stopped moving forward.
