The Czech beauty participated in a media exchange after winning the Miss World crown on the evening of March 9 in India. She told the Indian Express : "I am happy and full of excitement. I can't wait to participate in activities with the Miss World organization, becoming an ambassador to spread meaningful messages."

Pyszková mentioned supporting women, encouraging young girls to take charge of their own lives. "The message I want to send to them is that if you want to achieve anything, you need to believe in yourself. When I was a child, I didn't have confidence. Then I realized that everything in life depends on your thoughts, how you talk to yourself. This helped me develop a winner's mindset, and you can do the same," the beauty queen said.

Previously, in the behavioral round for the top 8, answering the question: "What is one issue related to women's health care that you want to talk about?", Krystyna Pyszková said: "I will talk about the lack of empathy, especially for women from poor areas. They are always hesitant to talk about maternity health or their own health. I want these women to be independent and strong to talk about this issue."
