A graduate student from the University of Auckland and marketing and publicity intern at Auckland Council, Setia took part in a contest conducted by T-Series.

She was declared as one of the winners from thousands of entries.

Four years, 3.52 million subscribers and 114 M views later, she has now moved to Mumbai to pursue her dream of making it big in Bollywood.
