Arshiya Parmar is a model who moved around a lot. Born in the capitol city of New Delhi, India, at age six she moved to New Zealand. At age ten she lived in Australia, and at age 12 she finally settled in the United States in California.
What does your name mean?
Well, apparently Arshiya is a Persian boy name, but my parents didn’t know that when they named me. It means a gift from the sky . . . too bad for them it’s a gift you can’t return.
What’s your secret talent?
I can out hula hoop anyone!
Something weird about you . . .
My hazel eyes change color in the sunlight. Indoors they look brown but outdoors they can look green.
Your biggest fear?
Mazes. I’d freak out if i ever got lost in one.
Something embarrassing?
I’m addicted to the History Channel and the Carl Sagan Cosmosseries.
Something you’ve always wanted to try?
I’ve always wanted to ride an elephant. They’re HUGE, but kind of cute, too.
Where do you see yourself in 5 years?
Acting in a soap opera would be amazing. I grew up watching “The Bold and the Beautiful,” and it would be surreal to be a part of that.
How would you describe yourself?
I’m a dork, I’m cheesy, but I love it.
Who’s your secret crush?
It’s not so secret. It’s Jon Stewart because he’s goofy and witty as hell.
Who do you consider the epitome of beauty?
Definitely Catherina Zeta Zones. She’s regal yet sexy AND a brunette!
