He studied at Dipendra Police School and later completed his schooling at Mangloday High School in Thankot. A very good student in school, Aaryan went to Birendra Sainik Awasiya Mahavidyalaya for higher studies in Sallaghari, Bhaktapur, and later moved to Ratna Rajya Lakshmi Campus, Kathmandu. With the desire to become an actor, he started taking acting lessons and could not complete his studies in college. He started taking acting lessons from Pariwartan, Nepal, a theater troupe with whom Aaryan has participated in several street plays as well.

Sigdel married Sapana Bhandari in 19 April 2014. They have one son, who was born in 2019.
Career
Sigdel's first lead role was in Kismat in 2007, opposite Biraj Bhatta and Rekha Thapa. Kismat was the highest-grossing film of the year and won a National Film Award. It was directed by Ujwal Ghimire. His second role was in Mausam, which became an average hit at the box office. In 2009, his third film, Mero Euta Saathi Cha, was released and met with a positive response from critics and the audience. It was the film that made Aaryan Sigdel a household name in Nepal. Later in the year 2010, he made a hat-trick with his biggest hits: Hifajat opposite Rekha Thapa, multi-starrer First Love, and The Flash Back: Farkera Herda opposite superstar Nikhil Upreti and Yuna Upreti.
In 2010, his six films were released. Two of his films, Kohi Mero and Bandhi, did not do well at the box office, while the sixth release, Kasle Choryo Mero Man, opposite Rekha Thapa, broke all the records at the box office and became one of the biggest hits in Nepali cinema. Though the rumours of fallout between the pair (him and Rekha Thapa), is heard quite often but their pair is said to be the best onscreen pair in Nepali films compared to that of Rajesh Hamal and Karishma Manandar and Nikhil Upreti and Arunima Lamsal.
Many of his films have English titles. Many times he has been criticized for being too selective about scripts in a small industry like Nepal.
Regarded as one of the highest-paid actors in the Nepali film industry, his film K Yo Maya Ho successfully made a good opening at the box office. It was directed by Sudarshan Thapa, who also directed Mero Euta Saathi Cha.
In 2013, Aaryan again joined his debut producer, Chhabi Raj Ojha, for the film Loafer, which was a failure. His film Dabaab also hit theaters the same year. Aaryan's next film was the romantic-drama November Rain, which was released in 2014 and was helmed by his I Am Sorry director Dinesh Raut. It became a huge success critically and commercially, reviving his career after a series of flops.
