He has done this by developing a platform to highlight the undiscovered abilities of Kashmiri youth.

His extraordinary talents attracted viewers’ attention and inspired him to enter the famous “Kashmir Got Talent” competition, where he finished as a runner-up.

He finished the show in second place because to his excellent performances, further solidifying his reputation as one of the best illusionists in the nation.
After receiving praise and recognition from several distinguished venues, Aadam decided to give back to his neighbourhood. He established the chat programme “Adams Apple,” which highlights the many talents of Jammu and Kashmir. The programme, which is now in its fifth season and has aired more than 70 episodes, is the longest-running private discussion programme in the area.
The benefits Aadam has provided to Kashmir’s youngsters go beyond magic. He fervently believes in the efficacy of mind-reading and hypnosis as resources for children’s moral development and personal growth. He works to instill self-confidence in the younger generation via his platform, encouraging people to pursue their hobbies without hesitation.
Raja Aadam recently achieved a historic first by organising Kashmir’s first YouTube Festival at Tagore Hall in Srinagar. The main event further promoted the area’s rising talents to a worldwide audience by bringing well-known YouTubers and social media influencers together under one roof.
Raja Aadam gives a straightforward yet powerful message to the Kashmiri youth as we dive inside his mind: “Follow your passion and trust in yourself. Trust your kids and give them the chance to grow up, parents. Without appreciation, criticism is worthless.
