Awarded by Bollywood icons and guided by unwavering family support, young model Aayug Swami is already redefining what success looks like for Gen Z.
In a world that often links success with age and experience, 12-year-old Aayug Swami is proving that passion and purpose know no boundaries. A model, child artist, and lifestyle icon, Aayug’s journey is already full of milestones and inspiration. His story isn’t just about fashion—it’s about focus, self-belief, and strong family values.
“I wasn’t inspired by any particular industry or career,” Aayug shares. “I was inspired by the idea of being successful. I believe I would’ve been successful in any field—because it’s a part of who I am.”
This bold mindset became the driving force behind his early accomplishments. A standout moment in his journey was when he was awarded by Bollywood actor Tusshar Kapoor, a recognition that introduced him to a wider audience and marked his formal entry into the world of modeling as a child artist.
His strength and motivation also stem from the incredible support of his family. “My mentor is my Mom Sugandha and my father, Advocate Nitesh, have always supported and encouraged me,” he says. “Their presence in every step of my life has made all the difference.”
Another unforgettable milestone was receiving the Lifestyle Icon of the Year Award from Bollywood actress Aanchal Munjal. Aayug reflects on how that moment shaped his purpose. “It wasn’t just a trophy. It was a message—that what I’m doing matters.”
And now, Aayug has added another prestigious feather to his cap.
