Meet Awie’s 7 Children: Names, Ages, and Heartwarming Family Moments

Dato’ Ahmad Azhar bin Othman, better known as Awie, is a legendary Malaysian rock singer, musician, and actor.

Born on November 24, 1968, in Kampung Datuk Keramat, Kuala Lumpur, he grew up in a modest family that fueled his love for music.

His father is Othman bin Maarof, and his mother is Azizah bte Abdul Hamid. Of Malay ethnicity and a practicing Muslim, Awie is one of six siblings, though he has lost a brother and a sister.

Awie began his music career at just 17 years old in 1985, performing at Panggung Anniversary as a backup singer for bands like Search and Sweet Charity.

Soon after, he co-founded the iconic rock band Wings, which became one of the most influential groups in Malaysian rock history. Known for his powerful voice and electrifying stage presence, Awie quickly rose to fame as the band’s lead vocalist.

His success in music later expanded into acting, with roles in films and television series that cemented his reputation as a versatile entertainer.

Standing at 152 cm tall and now 56 years old, Awie has led a life marked by both professional success and personal challenges. His private life has often been in the spotlight, marked by three marriages and the joys of fatherhood.

He first married singer Arni Nazira Anuar in 1998, a union that produced two daughters, Puteri Aleeya Antasha and Puteri Aleefa Antasha, before the couple divorced in 2006.

In 2005, he married Rozana Misbun, with whom he had three children—sons Putra Ahmad Merrah and Putra Ahmad Rezzki, and daughter Putri Qasseh Antasha—before their separation in 2014.

Awie later married his current wife, Datin Sharifah Ladyana Syed Shamsuddin, in a private ceremony in Thailand in 2016. Together, they share two children: a son, Putra Ahmad Andeeka and a daughter born on July 7, 2024. In total, Awie is a proud father of seven.

Awie’s love life once included a high-profile engagement to actress Erra Fazira during the 1990s, though the relationship ended amid reports of infidelity. Despite personal ups and downs, he has consistently highlighted the importance of family, often sharing moments with his children. In recent years, he has expressed a desire to slow down professionally so he can spend more time with them.

From his early rise with Wings to his achievements in acting, Awie remains a cultural icon in Malaysia.
