This victory marked her as the most decorated artist at the Silver Jubilee edition of AIM, a feat even more impressive considering her independent status.

The accolades from Aisha, who defeated four other notable works, included Best Local English Song for her song \"O.R.B.I.T.\" The up-and-coming boys' group Alpha made a significant debut, winning Best New Artist for their song \"Mona Lisa\" and Best Pop Song for \"P.Ramlee Saloma.\" Nasyid group Inteam took home Best Group Vocal for their song \"Satukan Kami Di Syurga.\" Other highlights included newcomer Arddley Nicholas winning Best Male Vocal Performance for \"Sandiwara Cinta\" and Marsha Milan's maiden win for Best Ethnic Song with \"Pelangi Pasti.\" Hazama was honored with his first-ever AIM trophy in Best Original Soundtrack for Film/Drama, and Ella Aminuddin received the Lifetime Achievement Award for her contributions to the music industry.",
