Nazia Hassan has possibly been one of the biggest losses to the Pakistani entertainment industry
Her charm and beauty took the entire country by storm
And our neighbors instantly fell in love with her, too
Her songs slowly became the anthems of an entire generation
On, what would have been, her 53rd birthday, we take a look at some of the songs that so many of us still know by heart and have on our playlists
1. The innocence of “Aankhein Milaney Wale” still makes our hearts skip a beat
2. And “Disco Deewane” still makes us get up and shake a leg
3. Even when we were younger, “Dil Ki Lagi” hit us straight in the hearts
4. And “Sun Mere Mehboob Sun” made our young hearts flutter
5. Just after watching this video of “Boom Boom”, we were in awe of Nazia’s beauty and the voice it came with
6. She collaborated a few times with her brother, Zoheb Hassan
7. And again on “Dosti”
8. The sister-brother duo used to set the stage on fire every time they got together to sing
9. With “Dum Dum Dee Dee”, Nazia Hassan brought in a whole new wave of music videos, unlike any we had seen before
10. We saw her fiery side with “Aag”, a song that still rings in our minds
11. And with “Lekin Mera Dil” we saw a whole different kind of heartbreak
12. We saw a Nazia unlike we’d ever seen before with “Then He Kissed Me”
13. Lovers from the 80s and 90s found a whole new way to talk to those they loved, with “Telephone Pyaar”
14. “Aap Jesa Koi” made India get up off of their seats, to the point where it was taken in an Indian movie, picturized on the gorgeous Zeenat Aman
15. And of course, possibly one of the biggest songs from Nazia’s career “Taali De Thalle”
We miss Nazia Hassan every single time a new female lead singer comes on the forefront. Hers is a void that will never really be fulfilled. May her soul always rest in peace.
This is Why Nazia Hassan Will Always Be The Queen of Pakistani Pop Music
