Many have been curious about who Alicia Kaur is. Let’s know more about her.

Who is Alicia Kaur?

Alicia Kaur is from Australia and began modelling at the mere age of 3. She has been working at the Lakme Fashion Week for the past 10 years. In an earlier interview with Elle, she revealed how she started modelling in childhood, "I did my first modelling job when I was 3, and was addicted to the idea of becoming a model. I tried my hand at childhood modelling and acting but I wasn’t so successful; I was rejected at least 45 times by agencies in Melbourne, Australia (where I’m from). Finally, by 19 I signed with a reputable agency, but once I was signed it still wasn’t easy, I still had to hustle and work part-time to support myself."

It was only at the age of 23 did Alicia moved to India and life changed. She said, “India is home. I always dreamt of finding the perfect country abroad where my look would suit the best. So I kept on searching and at 23 after visiting multiple destinations like China and Europe, I found India and I’m so grateful! India is home and I love my work and lifestyle here. I’m so glad I never gave up.”
