The biography of Bangladeshi artist Ayesha Sultana was incorrectly attributed to Lakshadweep native and film director Aisha Sulthana on social media.Some viral social media posts claimed that Aisha Sultana, an actor, model, and Malayalam film director, was born in Bangladesh's Jessore district and was educated at Beaconhouse National University in Lahore, Pakistan. However, the viral posts are false because Aisha Sultana of Lakshadweep has been misidentified for Bangladeshi artist Ayesha Sultana.

Aisha Sultana is from the Chetlat island of Lakshadweep. She was charged with sedition in Lakshadweep for her comments on bio-weapons in June 2021. Aisha's educational background was missing from her social media pages or news articles. Aisha also clarified that the widespread social media claims that she was born in Bangladesh were untrue in a Facebook post.

We found the same facts as the viral posts by looking up the biography of Ayesha Sultana, a Bangladesh-based artist. She was born in the Bangladeshi region of Jessore in 1984. She obtained her Post-Graduate Diploma in Art Education from Beaconhouse National University in Lahore, Pakistan, in 2008.

Indian Express reports that Aisha was an associate director for a Malayalam film- 'Kettyolaanu Ente Malaakha', and her first debut as a director was a Malayalam movie 'Flush' in 2020.
