Pakistan is commemorating the 100th birth anniversary of legendary singer Madam Noor Jehan, whose powerful voice and timeless songs continue to inspire generations.

Born in Kasur on September 21, 1926, she became one of South Asia’s most celebrated musical icons. Her patriotic songs during the 1965 Pakistan-India w@r, including “Aye Watan Ke Sajeele Jawano” and “Aye Puttar Hattan Te Nahi Wikde,” became deeply associated with Pakistan’s cultural and national history.

Noor Jehan’s extraordinary musical legacy continues to live on, with her songs remaining popular decades after her de@th in 2000.

The passing of veteran PTV actor Syed Asim Bukhari marks a sad moment for admirers of Pakistan’s classic television era. He was among those dedicated artists who contributed to the golden age of Pakistan Television, bringing life to memorable characters through his natural acting and dignified screen presence.

His departure is a significant loss to the artistic community. May his contributions to Pakistani drama always be remembered and appreciated.

May Allah grant him eternal peace and give patience to his family, friends, and admirers.
