About Me

Jimmy Asija’s journey from a serial entrepreneur to a filmmaker is inspiring. Starting his career at age 18 with a modest salary, Jimmy Asija has navigated numerous challenges to become a recognized name in the business and film industries.

Jimmy Asija began his professional life by switching multiple jobs with salaries ranging between Rs. 4,500 and Rs. 8,000. During these early years, he married his supportive wife, Siya Asija.

Jimmy’s first business was in gear bearings in Jammu, but due to the turbulent environment, it had to shut down, resulting in a loss of Rs. 22 lakhs. Undeterred, he continued to explore various business opportunities. He moved to Surat to work in the yarn industry with his uncle, where he capitalized on his networking skills to eliminate broker fees and secure better client deals.
