Aisha was the daughter of Niren Chaudhary and Aditi and was a sister to elder brother Ishan Chaudhary. She was born with an immune deficiency disorder and when she was just 6-months old, she had to undergo a bone marrow transplant. The surgery had its own risks and as a side effect, she developed a serious illness called pulmonary fibrosis, a medical condition that causes hardening of the lungs which causes difficulty in breathing.

In January 2010, at the age of 13, Aisha was diagnosed with the fatal medical condition. Her lung capacity was only 35% and faced trouble in walking, lifting things, navigating stairs and has to use a wheelchair to get around.
