Early life and family


Shamim Nazli was born in Amritsar, Punjab, British India, in 1940. After the partition of Indian continent in 1947, her family migrated to Pakistan and settled in Faisalabad (then Lyallpur).[1] Nazli had a younger sister Mala who later became a famous playback singer of Pakistani film industry.[2] Nazli's uncle Mirza Sultan Baig (Nizam Din) was a radio artist and worked for many years in the famous Punjabi radio program "Jamhoor Di Awaz" (The Voice of People) at Radio Pakistan Lahore. Nazli and her sister Mala, both had a passion for music. She trained her sister Mala in music at home and later, took her to the senior music director G.A Chishti to groom her as a singer.[5][6]


Career


Shamim Nazli started her career as a music director from the film, "Baharein Phir Bhi Ayen Gi" produced by her sister Mala in 1969.[7] Her music compositions for the movie were widely appreciated. The track, "Piyar Ke naghmay kis ne cherray" became a pop melody in demand.[8] It was a thrilling club song picturized by the actress Rozina. Another song from the movie was, "Khush naseebi hai meri", a romantic duet vocalized by Ahmed Rushdi and Mala. Nazli's second movie was "Night Club" (1971).[9] Though the film didn't go well at the box office, Nazli's music was par excellence. Some notable songs of the movie were "Mila jo piyar tumhara bahar ayi hai" (Rushdi/Mala) and "Sathia o mere sathia kuch keh zara" (Mala). Then Nazli got an opportunity to compose music for a hit movie, "Bin Badal Barsaat" released in 1975. The songs of the movie were very popular; "Sawal Karti Hay Aurat, Jawab Do Mardo, Sada-e-Dard Suno", "Tu Mera Pyar Hay, Tujh Ko Sada Main Chahun Ga", and "Rim Jhim Naina Barsen, Pyasay Hayn Jazbat Tujh Bin, Bin Baadal Barsat". When the actress/director Shamim Ara started her film, "Mera Piyar Yaad Rakhna", she signed Nazli as a music director but that movie never got released in cinemas. Apart from films, Shamim Nazli also worked in a PTV program "Bazm-e-Nagh" and composed songs for Radio Pakistan, Lahore.[6][1]
