      <title>In the 'Loving Memory' of our princess singer 'Nazia Hassan'</title>
      <link>https://english.aaj.tv/news/10270990/in-the-loving-memory-of-our-princess-singer-nazia-hassan</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-270992" title="nazia" src="http://www.aaj.tv/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/nazia.jpg" alt="" width="291" height="169" /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The 14th death anniversary of the vibrant, young and charming Pop Singer Nazia Hassan is being commemorated today all over South Asia, especially in Pakistan and India.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Brought up in Karachi and London, Nazia Hassan was born on 3&lt;sup&gt;rd&lt;/sup&gt; April 1965 into a Muslim family in Karachi.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Naziaâ€™s song â€œ&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Aap Jaisa Koi Na&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;i&lt;/em&gt;â€from the Indian film â€œ&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Qurban&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;iâ€ made her a renownedÂ  singer in Pakistan and South Asia in the 80â€™s.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-270996" title="d09snmv4" src="http://www.aaj.tv/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/d09snmv4.jpg" alt="" width="600" height="400" /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Her debut album, &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;â€œDisco Deewane&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;â€ became the best selling Asian Pop record until that time.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Naziaâ€™s youthful good looks, melodic voice and pacey beats caused a sensation and she became the youngest winner of a Film fare Award.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The youthful teenage was the first Pakistani to win a &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Film Fare Award &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;when 15 and still retains the honor of being the youngest winner of Film Fare Award in the category of &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Best Female Playback Singer &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;to date.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The loving sister of two siblings Zohaib Hassan and Zahra Hassan, she was also awarded with &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Pride of Performance, Double Platinum Award &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;and&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt; Gold Discs Award&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Unfortunately, the sub continental princess was not destined to live long and passed away at the age of only 35 on August 13 in the year 2000 after fighting a long battle with the fatal disease of lung cancer. She is buried at Hendon Cemetery London.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-270999" title="nazia1" src="http://www.aaj.tv/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/nazia1.jpg" alt="" width="600" height="400" /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Undoubtedly, Nazia will remain ever young and beautiful in our minds. She is really missed because she wasnâ€™t just a star. In fact, she was a part of peopleâ€™s lives. She was an inspiration, a role model, a person to look up to. She was a magical singer and her songs still retain that magic.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;May Her Soul Rest In Peace.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
