Hyderabad, July 2, 2025 — In a shining example of the global appeal of Indian cuisine, Mrs. India Sowmya, a beauty queen turned food entrepreneur, has taken her culinary brand Rangoon Biryani to international heights. The brand recently received a monumental order of 50,000 biryani meal packets from Saudi Arabia, signaling a new chapter in India’s food export and startup ecosystem.
From Crown to Kitchen: Sowmya’s Inspiring Journey
Sowmya first captured the nation’s attention when she was crowned Mrs. India, a title that recognized not only her grace and confidence but also her ambition and leadership potential. Rather than resting on her laurels, she turned her attention to the world of entrepreneurship — driven by a deep-rooted passion for food and a dream to put Indian biryani on the global culinary map.
Her brainchild, Rangoon Biryani, was launched with the idea of preserving the rich, royal flavors of traditional biryani while making it accessible to modern consumers. The brand quickly rose to prominence for its consistent taste, hygienic preparation, premium ingredients, and affordability.
A Global Milestone for Rangoon Biryani
The bulk order from Saudi Arabia comes as a major breakthrough. The 50,000-packet consignment includes a curated selection of Rangoon Biryani’s signature offerings, including the classic chicken biryani, mutton biryani, and several vegetarian options — all customized to suit regional taste preferences while retaining authentic Indian spices and aromas.
This bulk international order is set to be delivered in phased consignments, packed using advanced food-grade packaging technology to ensure freshness, hygiene, and taste preservation during transit.
Sowmya shared her excitement, stating,
“This is not just a business achievement — it’s a dream come true. From the beginning, our mission with Rangoon Biryani was to take the taste of India to global tables. Receiving this order from Saudi Arabia affirms that our efforts are being recognized and loved beyond borders.”
Boosting India’s Food Export Ecosystem
The deal comes at a time when Middle Eastern nations are showing increased appetite for Indian cuisine, especially regional specialties like biryani, kebabs, and curries. Rangoon Biryani’s success opens the door for more Indian food brands to explore global markets, especially in countries with large Indian diasporas and deep cultural ties to the subcontinent.
The brand is reportedly in talks with multiple distributors and food chains in the UAE, Oman, and Qatar for future collaborations and outlets.
Women Empowerment Through Entrepreneurship
Mrs. Sowmya’s transition from a beauty queen to a business leader is more than a personal success story — it’s a beacon of inspiration for countless women across India. Her journey reflects the power of women-led businesses in shaping India’s economic future.
“If you have a vision and the courage to pursue it, the world will open doors for you,” says Sowmya, who also plans to mentor young women entrepreneurs and expand her brand through franchising models.
What’s Next for Rangoon Biryani?
With this international breakthrough, Rangoon Biryani is all set to explore global franchise opportunities, cloud kitchen tie-ups, and strategic export partnerships. The company is also planning to launch a ready-to-eat biryani product line aimed at NRIs and international consumers, with long shelf life and authentic taste.
