According to a report, Zia was normally growing child till the age of 10 years. However, a sudden shoot in the growth of his physical frame surprised him as well as everyone around because it was something out beyond normality. He had to take calcium supplements in order to cope up with weakness in his bones.

He further told that “Within a span of just one year I became the tallest member in my family”. Zia despite facing difficulty in dealing with his routine activities feels blessed to be unusually prominent that everyone visits him to specially take selfies with him. The several times invitations from Saudi Arabia and Dubai have made him earn good fame on the international level and now his recent invitation is from Zimbabwe.
