Ali Ersan Duru was born in Ankara on 19 September 1984. His father is in the tourism business, and his mother is a housewife.

He also loved to participate in performances at school when he was in his teens. He dreamed of becoming a pilot so his father sent him to the cadet corps but due to his discipline being lame, the family council made a decision that this job wasn’t suitable for him.
