Ayesha Azhar, the social media sensation known for her viral dance video on the classic song “Mera Dil Yeh Pukare Aaja”, has opened up about her difficult academic journey — admitting that she failed her matriculation exams three times before finally passing.
In a recent interview, Ayesha candidly shared that school was never easy for her. She described academics as a major struggle, saying that studying “was not my strong suit” and that she often felt left behind compared to her peers. Despite repeated failures, she persisted, driven by encouragement from friends who urged her to keep trying.
After failing her matric exams twice, Ayesha refused to give up and took the exams a third time — eventually securing a passing grade. However, she confessed that she never felt she had the same academic aptitude as many of her classmates.
Now, Ayesha is shifting her focus away from formal education and dedicating herself to a career in content creation and modeling. Her online fame, she says, has given her a platform to build a future on her own terms.
Ayesha first gained widespread attention when a clip of her dancing to a remixed version of “Mera Dil Yeh Pukare Aaja” went viral on TikTok. The performance struck a chord with the internet, and her energetic style and unapologetic confidence won her a massive following.
Her story is resonating with many young people who face their own academic challenges. By openly discussing her repeated failures, Ayesha is helping to destigmatize educational struggles, showing that success does not always come from a conventional path. Her transparency is being praised as an inspiration for those who feel defined by their academic records — proving that passion and perseverance can lead to unexpected opportunities.
