She came, she swayed, she conquered. Annie is the latest teen sensation to hit the local music scene. Most songs aired these days are as easily forgotten as they are heard. However, when the hit single, ‘Mahiya’ began making its rounds on music channels some six months back, you just had to stop and take notice.
Noor–ul–Ain popularly known as Annie, is a Pakistani pop singer. Annie was born in 1985 in Lahore, Punjab, Pakistan. In 1986, her parents moved to London, that is where she has grown up.
Annie started her singing career at the age of fifteen. In 2000, during a summer vacation she was came to Pakistan, and performed first time in live concert for Abrarul Haq’s charity in Sargodha. After experiencing the intoxicating rush of performing live, this adamant 15–year old decided that singing was what she wanted. Her parents were very supportive and got her an ustaad with whom she started vocal exercises, with the harmonium.
Very few new artists are lucky to have their first single to be such a hit. Record companies have approached her, Indian record companies are calling her, asking for demos and she’s getting a lot of television and international shows.
Annie, with her bubbly personality and versatile singing ability has opened doors for more female Pakistani girls to come forth with their talent. And to top it all, Annie is now a proud part of the roster of stars for the Telenor Talkshawk team of brand ambassadors.
