Divya Maiya’s viral videos took off in January of 2021 when her partner took a video of Maiya downhill skiing in her teal and gold Sari at a Minnesota ski resort.
“We go skiing a lot here. I ski at Welsh, and I ski at Afton. Most of the weekends and winters we do that. One such day when we already had plans for skiing, I just packed my Sari along with me and then we just shot it.”
Maiya says creating videos for social media has brought together her love for dance and creating content.
“I have been doing a lot of, you know, dance videos, and I love creating for Tik Tok and Instagram. And I’ve been teaching dance for so long in Twin Cities. So this is like, just a passion of mine just to create content.”
