Nikita Mirzani was born on 17 March 1983 in Jakarta, Indonesia, as the second child and only daughter of the four children to Mawardi bin Rasyidin (1963 - 2014) and Julaelah (1967 - 2009).

Fia said she was leaving the venue at 2:30 am when a fight started near the entrance, so she curiously approached the melee, only to be punched in the right eye by Nikita Mirzani.
Indonesian media reported that Fia had requested "peace money" of Rp300 million from Nikita Mirzani for the case not to proceed to court.
Judges said she need not serve the sentence in jail, as she is a single mother, so she was placed under city arrest on probation for 12 months, during which time she should not commit any crime.
