Re: Missing actors and Actresses

i heard there was this beautiful lady, Mussarrat Nazir, who happened to be a good singer as well...do you guys know where is she now and what is she doing?

Re: Missing actors and Actresses

Musarrat Nazeer might be in her 80s. She lives in Canada. She started as an actress and did some amazing performances in movies like 'Zehr e Ishq' and 'Shaheed'. She then moved to Canada in 1960s after marrying to a Pakistani - Canadian doctor . She came back in Pakistan during 80s, sung some Punjabi folk songs (which are sung y Surinder Kaur in Indian Punjab) and then disappeared by 90s.

Re: Missing actors and Actresses


thank you for the detailed info...i wish her all the best wherever she is...if she is nearby where i live, i may wish to see her...i heard a lot about her.

Re: Missing actors and Actresses

She sung the then very famous song Mera loang gawacha (میرا لونگ گواچا) in 1986 PTV awards show.

Musarrat Nazir and Sabiha Khanum are from the same era. Sabiha also acted in TV dramas in 90s, but then left. Wonder where she now is?

Re: Missing actors and Actresses

I think she is probably in England with her children.

Re: Missing actors and Actresses

Loved this thread

Re: Missing actors and Actresses

She is sister of tasmina sheikh, i remember her songs used to play in ptv morning transmission at that time. She was also in video of junaid jamshed's ajnabi. I think she only acted in 1/2 dramas (can only remember kashkol).

Re: Missing actors and Actresses

thanks for the info guys. So many memories, not enough time.

Roohi Bano in poor conditions

Re: Missing actors and Actresses

This legendry actress is going through financial crisis. As she appears in this Geo News report, she also seems to be in poor shape both physically and mentally.

Re: Missing actors and Actresses

The late and great journalist Khalid Hasan, an avid fan of both Mussarat Nazir and Madam Noorjehan recounts a very interesting incident in his commemorative essay on the latter. When Mussarat Nazir returned to Pakistan in the 80s having spent 20 plus years in Canada, she created a near sensation with her rendition of tappay and wedding/folk songs. Her popularity reached such dizzying heights that Madam Noorjehan (not known for being particularly large hearted) was forced to release her own album of similar songs which sank without a trace. As per Khalid Hasan madam threatened Ms. Nazir of dire consequences including black magic (in her most colourful truck driver lingo) if she did not return immediately to Canada which she did. never to return to the limelight again. Very amusing no?

Re: Missing actors and Actresses

^Of course very interesting.

I have heard another story relating to Madam Noorjehan. In the 50s, there was a singer Zubaida Khanam. She had a sweet voice and was becoming very popular, bringing Noorjehan market value down. So to get rid of her, Noorjehan put something in her meals/drinks and after that Zubaida's voice got hoarse and she couldn't sing anymore. I don't know if this story is true or not, but one thing is for sure that Noorjehan never let anyone coming in her way.

Re: Missing actors and Actresses

Madam's conflict with singer Mala and actress Firdos is also well known. In that case she was quite justified.

Re: Missing actors and Actresses

lolzzz.... well no doubt she was/is a legend with an exceptional voice but a controversial person, have read many facts in manto's loud speaker.

Re: Missing actors and Actresses

Manto died soon after partition (January 1955). Madam’s personality and controversies related to her continued till 1990s. Do you remember Tahira Syed’s comments about Madam while she compared her with Lata. That was an OMG statement :omg:

Re: Missing actors and Actresses

hahaha that was an awkward moment… actually i mentioned manto’s book to highlight that she was controversial from the beginning. There were many other controversies related to her but i think its better not to mention them :hehe:
