Early life
Ansiba was born 18 June 1992, the second daughter of six children born to parents Hassan and Rasiya in the Kozhikode district of Kerala, India. She has an elder brother, Anees, three younger brothers, Ashik, Asib and Afsal, and a younger sister Afsana.
Controversies
In May 2026, Ansiba Hassan resigned from the joint secretary position of Association of Malayalam Movie Artists (AMMA). Hassan alleged that she had been subjected to mental harassment within the association and claimed that actor Tini Tom had spread rumours about her and referred to her using a communal slur. She further stated that these incidents contributed to her decision to resign from her position.
Tini Tom denied the allegations and challenged Hassan to provide evidence for her claims. Hassan also alleged that she received insufficient support from AMMA leadership regarding her complaints. The controversy later expanded after actress Lakshmi Priya stated that she had previously filed a police complaint against Hassan over a personal dispute while rejecting Hassan's allegations against members of the organisation.
Actress Neena Kurup supported Ansiba and later filed a separate complaint against Tini Tom alleging inappropriate behaviour during an association gathering, following which AMMA reportedly initiated internal proceedings and sought explanations from members involved in the dispute.
President of the organisation, Shwetha Menon later declined to comment further on the matter publicly, stating that the issue would be addressed through the organisation's internal mechanisms and upcoming general body meeting.
In June 2026, Hassan reiterated her allegations against AMMA during the association's general body meeting, stating that her complaints had not been adequately addressed and that she had not received justice within the organisation. Following the meeting, the entire governing committee resigned and a temporary committee was appointed to oversee the association's affairs.
