2008-2011: Career Beginnings
Whilst in highschool, (it is unknown when exactly it happened) Aja decided to drop out in order to pursue drag with full time commitment. It is noted that Aja did have perfect grades while they were enrolled. Once they dropped out, they began to sneak into bars and get gigs in order to gain publicity and an income. Aja managed to trick many bars into letting them perform despite being underage. Aja chose their drag name based on the 1982 Bollywood movie "Disco Dancer", which features a song in it's corresponding soundtrack titled 'Jimmy Jimmy Jimmy Aaja'. Their interest in the song lyric inspired them to use it as their stage name.
