Cinemaazi remembers Naseem Akhtar on her death anniversary
11 May 2007
In 1942, Pandit Amarnath introduced the singer Naseem Akhtar to Hindi cinema audience in Nishani. A performer in Lahore Radio, she swiftly shifted to Bombay after her first film and sang for Bhai (1944), Pehli Nazar (1945), Shah Jehan (1945), Keemat (1946) and Ek Roz (1947). However, she moved to Pakistan after the Partition where she had a brief career in the films. Today is her death anniversary.
