Celebrated singer of Pakistan, Afshan Ahmed, who started her singing career in the 1970s and is known for her radio and television songs, was seated for a heart-to-heart tell-all with host Nida Yasir, on ARY Digital\u2019s Ramadan special transmission \u2018Shan e Suhoor\u2019<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Ahmed detailed her early singing career at the young age of 3, given support from her mother, who herself was a singer at All India Radio before her family migrated to Pakistan in 1965.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy father, who worked for Pakistan State Oils, was very liberal and open-minded. He always encouraged all his three kids, me and both my elder brothers to follow our aspirations, along with our studies. We had to make sure that our grades didn\u2019t drop or else no other activity would be allowed,\u201d the singer recalled.<\/p>\n

\u201cSo we did play a lot of sports as well, and all three of us siblings can sing well, we can play different instruments, but my brothers didn\u2019t pursue it as a profession,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n
