In an interview with BillboardWorldMusic, singer and composer Ashir shared that his musical journey has been far from easy. Coming from a family without a musical background, his only pillar of support has been his father, Muhammad Saleem, who encouraged him to follow his passion despite challenges. While many took advantage of his talent without giving credit or support, his father quietly stood by him, providing the foundation Ashir needed to keep going.

Ashir is largely self-taught, dedicating himself to music through independent study of composition, recording, and music design. Though he did not follow a conventional formal education path in music, he tried to absorb knowledge from every available source and consistently pushed his creative boundaries. Alongside his musical ambitions, Ashir also completed a degree in Marketing at the University of Galway, Ireland, honoring his father’s wish for a strong educational foundation.

Ashir also enjoys working with different lyricists and music programmers, believing that collaboration helps him grow and allows him to support hidden talents.
