AMY AELA – International Stunner Of The Year

Ex : How did your content creation journey kick start?
It organically started when I started making dance videos. This led to opportunities arising in the acting world, and I realised how much I loved acting. So, I decided to move to India and pursue this creative direction. I have focused on acting, but content plays a big part. It’s something you control, which allows you to stand out and showcase your skills.

Ex : What is your most viral reel/short? How did the idea come, and how long did it take to shoot?
My most viral reel in short skits would be the Paytm loading issue. I got the idea because it happens to me all the time when I am trying to pay and that awkward moment of waiting for it to load. My other viral reel would be when I shared the item song I was in with Ranbir Kapoor.

Ex : Any 4 creators you want to collaborate with in the future.
I would like to collaborate with Lilly Singh! She’s a brilliant mind, super funny.

Ex : What piece of tech is your favourite.
My favourite piece of tech would be my AirTags! So I can find all my things!

Ex : Assuming Instagram is shutting down in 24 hours, what will you do?
For me, I suppose nothing. I’ve never kept all my eggs in one basket, so it won’t really impact me. I don’t think, as a creator or actor, you should rely heavily on any one thing.

Ex : Do you have an industry mentor?
No, I don’t – but I’d like to have one!

Ex : Tell us about a project that you are the most proud of.
My proudest project has yet to be released. It is an OTT show opposite some amazing actors in a role, which is my dream.

Ex : Give us one or more hashtags describing you.
#Doer #Resourceful #AgainstTheOdds

Ex : Can you describe a BTS / blooper that happened during a shoot but didn’t make it into the final content piece?
All the time, I have bloopers. I’m either falling or saying the wrong thing, haha.

Ex : What’s the first-ever trend that you hopped on?
I rarely do trends. But when I do… they bust up. I did the Nepalese trend last, which reached 8.5 million views on one reel.

Ex : What will the creator landscape look like in 10 years from now?
This space is constantly evolving, and creators need to as well. They cannot just be creators they need to take their popularity and use it to leverage into something else, such as a business or something that can use their expertise and image to help grow.

Ex : What are the platforms you are active on – how do you decide what goes where?
I have zero strategy with my socials! I just post what I feel.

Ex : What’s the next big thing in the pipeline for you?
My shows for OTT platforms should be released this year.

Ex : What is your dream project?
My dream project would be to do a film with an amazing script! Or a comedy show like Schitt’s Creek.

Ex : Advice you would like to give to budding creators.
Just start. Focus on the creative and less on the likes
