Their first date lasted for three hours, during which they enjoyed each other’s company and felt a strong connection.

Career

After finishing college, she secured a position at a multinational company in the United Arab Emirates. She spent six months on a project, but then she left the job because she couldn’t stop thinking about choreographing dance moves while working.

Dancer and Choreographer

After leaving her job at the MNC, she began a full-time career in the performing arts. She taught herself how to dance. At the age of 20 in 2016, she posted her first Bollywood-style dance video on YouTube, featuring the song “Kaala Chasma.” It gained widespread popularity with more than 2.9 million views, earning her the nickname “Kaala Chasma” girl. She began sharing her dance videos regularly on various social media platforms, including TikTok, Instagram, and Facebook. In 2017, her dance routine on the song “Mercy” was reshared by Sony Music India on Twitter.

Content Creator

She became a full-time content creator and gained popularity for being the first to share dance videos from the UAE. When she began creating content, social media wasn’t as widespread as it is today, so she had to independently search for information, acquire knowledge, and adapt her work accordingly. Once she mastered the effective use of social media, her fan base grew significantly. With many online students, she recognized the need to open a dance studio. At the age of 25, she established NKD Studio in Dubai.
