fact
- She began singing at the age of 10 and briefly studied classical music.
- During her first year in college, she tried rapping for the first time at an event. Since then she has performed at festivals and various events. Talking about this, she said –
I used to listen to Nicki Minaj and Iggy Azalea talking and think, “Why do they talk so fast?”. I then tried to learn some lyrics and perform them at an event in my college. The response has been amazing: maybe because it works completely out of the box. When I perform, I see a crazy vibe in people that I’ve never seen singing before. “
- One day, a boy in her circle commented that she was always looking for cooperation and never did anything alone. It was then that she considered producing her own single. The single was “Wasted Love.”
- Her single “Wasted Love” took two months to edit because the video editor she found had no experience with acts like rap, which made editing difficult.

- Talking about her stage name “Agsy” and how she chose it for herself, Agsy said Agsy is her alter ego. She further added –
Agsy is a completely new character with a different attitude than Agrita. Rap has helped me gain confidence. Allowed me to reflect and clarify my thoughts. This is not what Agreta used to be. So, this new guy needs a name. Alas, AGSY! “
- Apart from singing, she is also into acting. She acted in AAFT’s Marwa Studios film project film Firki.
