Atif Aslam
Muhammad Atif Aslam is a Pakistani singer and film actor. He made his movie debut in the 2011 social drama Bol, which received critical acclaim and was a box office success in Pakistan. Aslam is widely known for his playback singing in Pakistani and Indian cinema and has won several awards for his contributions... read more
Atif is amazing. He has sung so much for Bollywood that even when his voice is heard in the Pakistani industry, it gives me flashbacks of him singing for Bollywood films. It's a real shame about the attitude of Indian celebrities and Indians who are being harsh about the ban on Pakistani artists in India, when they have Atif's voice on a heck load of songs (also Rahat Fateh Ali Khan).
It's totally harsh. But no one can forget Aadat and Woh Lamhe, these are pure gems of Pakistani music. Hope to see more of Atif in Lollywood.
Hi guys, I'm a British South Asian. I never was a fan of Hindi songs. By chance, my friend was playing one of his songs, and I liked it so much I had to ask about the singer. His voice is so unique.
It has a natural flow of lyrics which carries the emotions attached to inner souls. That's what I've experienced from his songs, which is truly sensational, and the rhythm of love and emotions.

Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan
Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan was a Pakistani singer of qawwali, the devotional music of the Sufis. He was widely regarded as one of the greatest voices ever recorded, with an extraordinary vocal range and the ability to perform with high intensity for several hours. He introduced qawwali to international audiences... read more
In all over the world, no one singer has the ability to achieve the voice or sing the songs like Ustaad Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan. He was a respected person in the world. And the big thing is that after the death of Ustaad, there are so many people in the world who have listened to the songs of Ustaad Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan and appreciated his voice at that time also.
Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan is still one of the world's most respected and revered singers. No one surpasses the glory and fame he received and continues to receive years after his death. It's interesting to see that all other names on this list actually consider NFAK their godfather, and maybe even their god.

Ali Zafar
Ali Zafar, born on May 18, 1980, is a Pakistani singer-songwriter, actor, producer, screenwriter, and painter. He gained popularity with his debut album Huqa Pani in 2003, which was a commercial success. Zafar has also acted in numerous Pakistani and Bollywood films, expanding his career across multiple... read more
Best ever. He is better than Atif, though. The stability in Ali Zafar's voice is much more than any other singer. Ali Zafar for life.
He is one of the best singers ever produced in the world. He has a magical voice. Listen to him in an album or live, it gives the same vibes. He is simply the best of all.
Ali Zafar is the President of Music. He is a music genre himself that gives serenity, joy, and love.
-
Rahat Fateh Ali Khan
The best singer I've ever heard! He sings very smoothly and with full dedication. That's the best part, as other singers take singing for granted.
No words for him. I just can't describe him. He is THE BEST.
Sufi, Pop, Rock, Classic, Duets, whatever the song type is... He is king in all aspects and the Pride of Pakistan.
Best vocals ever. Rahat Sahab is way ahead of others. Atif has a different voice, but Rahat Sahab has the best melody.
-
Farhan Saeed (Jal the Band)
Personally, I find it difficult to rank Pakistani singers, male or female, as they all have a unique singing voice. But Farhan Saeed is a day one for me. His singing voice is so natural.
I think Pakistanis should be appreciative of their own country's singers rather than be overly critical because we are blessed with amazing and natural talent.
His voice has pain and depth, and it matches perfectly with his expressions. He sings right from his heart, not just the throat. God bless him with a successful career and great achievements in his upcoming future.
-
Falak Shabir
His voice and the sound of his music are really good. The way he portrays the song in the video is excellent. He is cool, talented, and really interesting to look at and listen to.
He is an awesome, talented singer from Pakistan. He has a heart-touching voice, and his music is mind-blowing.
Falak's voice is very beautiful, and his lyrics resonate in the heart. This is the glory of Pakistan. I love Falak Shabir. May Allah guide you in this way.
-
Bilal Saeed
Bilal Saeed has a heart-touching voice. He is an amazing artist. I also like Amrinder Gill. The song 2 Number is also very beautiful.
My bro Bilal Saeed is one of the best singers in the universe. And I hate those who comment on the basis of religion because Bilal bro is a universal singer.
He is really very awesome. Love his lyrics as well as the music beat. Awesome.
-
Hadiqa Kiani
She is a legend. No female singer in Pakistan comes even close to her title as the Queen.
She has the best voice amongst all Pakistani singers. God bless her.
Most iconic with more hits than any other singer, with no help from India.
-
Shafqat Amanat Ali
Mr. Amanat Ali has depth, style, projection, perfect rhythm, poise, and the ability to stay in tune. In my opinion, he is simply outstanding. He belongs in the same class as Kishore Kumar, Mohammad Rafi, Mukesh, and Talat Mahmood. Good luck in your career.
He has a soulful voice, and I think he chooses his songs very carefully. Unlike other singers, he doesn't sing every other song on the market, and this is why all of his songs are a pleasure to listen to.
I love Shafqat so much. He is the best ever. He is such an inspiration to me and all my friends. He is my idol. When I grow up, I wish I could be like him.
-
Abida Parveen
Singer of Sindh, Pakistan, and the world, she really is. When she sings, she gets lost in it.
She is the greatest singer in the world!
You can copy every other singer's voice, but you can't copy Abida Parveen.

Nabeel Shaukat Ali
He is one of the best singers in Pakistan. His voice quality sets him apart from any other singer. If he comes to Bollywood, he will surpass Sonu Nigam and all other singers.
Great singer, watched him on the Surkshetra show and he has great potential as a singer.
I love his voice so much.
-
Noor Jehan
What a stupid poll! What do you know about artists? Please allow me to rectify your foolishness:
Noor Jehan, Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan, Reshma, Abida Parveen, Ghulam Ali, Mehdi Hassan, Salamat Ali Khan, Amanat Ali Khan, Naseem Begum. People like them are legends, not Atif Aslam and Ali Zafar, for crying out loud.
No one can sing like Madam Noor Jehan, even Lata can't sing like Malika-e-Tarannum. Not only was her singing marvelous and excellent, but her dressing and hairstyle were also fabulous.
She is the most prominent singer in the subcontinent. Why is she ranked so low? Great singer.
-
Sajjad Ali
This guy is just fantastic! I really don't know why he isn't at the top. His song "Har Zulm" has superb music and lyrics.
Other songs such as "Soni Lagti" are perfect party musts in almost all of the subcontinent since they have ever come on air.
Sajjad Sahib, the only singer who can speak classical and rock at the same time. Bolo Bolo Kiya Dekha...
This is the only singer who has a great voice!
-
Nazia Hassan
She revolutionized the music industry and should be recognized for it. Beautiful in every way, and nobody can replicate her songs. Just the general aura and vibe is mesmerizing.
What a truly gracious lady, way ahead of her time. May she be in a better place. Much respect to her and her brother Zoheb. I love Pakistan.
I think that Nazia Hassan is one of the most popular women singers in Pakistan. I listen to her songs all the time.
-
Mehdi Hassan
Amazed to see him at 13. I understand time changes the tastes of people, but I love your voice very much, especially the Ghazals. I will...
None can sing like him. A superb classical singer who has no parallel.
-
Mustafa Zahid
To me, you are my best singer, though I am Indian and hear no singer other than K.K. Krishna Kumar Kunnath is the best Indian singer, and Mustafa Zahid and Rahat Fateh Ali Khan are my favorite Pakistani singers.
In a few more years, Mustafa Zahid will be at the number one place. The best voice Bollywood has ever imported.
Best voice of extremely talented Pakistani music. Love from Bangladesh.
-
Sara Raza Khan
She is a very nice ghazal singer and has a nice voice. GOD bless her.
-
Ali Azmat
The best singer of all and overall rocks! Deserves to be number one on this list because he really worked for it and got this far. Better voice than Atif Aslam, I would say, but then again, they share different styles.
Atif isn't in Pakistan and is a traitor to our country. He shouldn't be at the top. Ali Azmat rocks!
Why is he ranked so low? His voice is just amazing!
1st Pakistani Rockstar and has won international best group band in the world in 1998. Ali Azmat is the one who brought Sufi rock to Pakistan. Ali Noor, Ali Atif, Bilal Khan, and many more famous bands and singers are inspired by him.
So Ali Azmat should be the top 1 singer in Pakistan.

Junaid Jamshed
Junaid Jamshed Khan جنید جمشید was a Pakistani recording artist, television personality, fashion designer, occasional actor, singer-songwriter, preacher, and televangelist. He gained fame as the lead vocalist of the band Vital Signs. Later in life, he became known for his Islamic preaching and philanthropy... read more
Well, JJ should be number 1. He and his band revolutionized the music scene. He is more handsome and talented than any of today's singers.
And to have Bilal Saeed, who is not even a national singer but just a Punjabi singer, above the man who sang Dil Dil Pakistan is rubbish! Ali Zafar is not a singer anymore. He hasn't released an album in seven years.
His song Dil Dil Pakistan is drool-worthy, and his voice too. An amazing personality. He hands down deserves to be at number one.
He has given the nation its second anthem, and his voice... WOAH.
-
Qurat-ul-Ain Balouch
Love the way she lifts the song. Amazingly talented. She is the future of the Pakistani music industry and also all over the world. She will be remembered among the legends one day.
Give her an ordinary song, and she will make it extraordinary. Simply amazing. Love from India.
Best singer as she has a very unique voice, which makes her different from others.
-
Asim Azhar
He's a great singer. A new talent with a different style of presenting his music.
Heavenly voice at a very young age. A very humble personality.
Asim is an amazing singer and a very sweet guy.
-
Uzair Jaswal
He is too cute, and his voice is as sexy as he is!
Uzair Jaswal's voice is so beautiful. Uzair Jaswal is the best singer.
-
Bilal Khan
-
Rahim Shah
He is one of the most amazing singers of all time and should be more widely recognized. His voice and lyrics may even top Atif Aslam, or at least be equal to him.
The guy is a natural singer. He sings about life today and is a great inspiration.
Rahim Shah is the best singer of all time. He is my favorite singer, the one and only Rahim Shah.
