Sharifah Nor Azean Syed Mahadzir Alyahya (born 30 May 1983), better known by her stage name Scha Alyahya, is a Malaysian actress, model and TV host.[1] She plays the lead character, Dania, a tomboy who struggles to achieve her dream of becoming a flight attendant, in the highly rated TV series Awan Dania which aired on Astro Ria for three seasons that made Scha a household name.[2]

Early life

She quit flying when she started her career after winning the Dewi Remaja beauty pageant organised by Remaja, a local Malay teen magazine in 2006.[5] She then decided to squeeze into the showbiz world after being cast by Azizi 'Chunk' Adnan, the director of Antoofighter and creator/former director of Awan Dania series.
