Jasmay's first acting role came in 1997 when she was only nine years old in a TV drama called Si Lembik.[citation needed] The story is similar to the Hollywood film The Little Rascals, where little kids play the roles of adults.[citation needed] It was produced and directed by Aznil Hj Nawawi.
Over the years, Jasmay has made herself a household name by acting in numerous TV drama and TV series including Dendam Terlerai, Balqis, Orang Kasar, Cinta Sempadan, Najwa, and Cinta Si Rempit.[citation needed]
She then made her first silver-screen role in a highly promoted film Castello,[5] where she starred alongside Rosyam Nor.[5] The role earned Jasmay her first Malaysian Film Festival 2006 nomination for the Best New Actress Award.[5]
Her career soared and she won a Best Actress Award for Malaysian Film Festival 2009 for her role in the film Papadom and a Best Actress Award for her role in an indie-gone-mainstream film KAMI.[6]
Jasmay directed and produced a telemovie entitled #SoKampung under her production company, Mermaid Studios, thus marking her directorial debut. This was followed by a teen drama The Gadis.[7]
Jasmay married her longtime love, Malaysian businessman Fathuddin Mazlan, on 2 February 2013.[8][9][10] They have two daughters, born in 2014 and 2016.[11]
Liyana's father, Jasmay Md Shah died in December 2021 due to lung cancer.[12][13] This was followed by her mother, Habsah Simpon died in May 2023 due to lymphomal cancer.[14][15]
Following her parents' death, Liyana expresses her concern that due to genetical factors, she would have a risk to get cancer in an interview with Malaysian newspaper, Kosmo!: "What happened to my parents became a lesson for me since both of them died due to cancer [...] So my genetics are indeed at risk for cancer".[16]
In 2012, Jasmay went to Manhattan, New York City, undergoing acting and screenwriting/directing courses in New York Film Academy for six months, accompanied by her mother.[17] She is a graduate of Diploma of Performance Art and Media from Sunway University.[citation needed]
Jasmay was the Malaysian Ambassador for Maybelline in 2009 and held the role for three years. She has been the Ambassador for ASAP Smoke Free Lifestyle Campaign since 2011.
