Rising to fame with the globally-acclaimed anthem ‘Dil Dil Pakistan’, singer-turned-televangelist Junaid Jamshed is being remembered by fans world-over on his 54th birthday.
Born in Karachi on 3rd September, 1964, Junaid Jamshed briefly worked as civilian contractor and engineer for the Pakistan Air Force before turning to music as a potential career option.
He, and his band 'Vital Signs' gained immense popularity during the 80s, with their claim-to-fame songs like 'Aitebaar', 'Hum Tum', ‘Dil Ki Baat’ and various others.
After reigning the pop music industry for almost 15 years, Junaid Jamshed, due to a change of heart, bid farewell to his musical stint in order to serve the humanity by enlightening it with spiritual knowledge and religious guidance.
During his life, he also established a clothing brand with the name “J.”
In a tragic incident, however, Junaid lost his life when the plane (PK-661) he was travelling on from Chitral to Islamabad crashed in Havelian.
