I am Zunair Khalid. Singing is my passion, it means everything to me. I was inspired by Muhammad Rafi Sahab. His songs are so inspiring. I started my singing after being inspired from him.
How would you describe your work to someone who has never known about it?
Well, I am more into Urdu/Punjabi music frontier. I am into music production as well.

Mainly Muhammad Rafi Sahab. Plus I was very fond of listening to different genre songs, which later on became my inspiration and thus I started singing.

Do you prefer on specific genre of music over any other genre? If so, what genre and why?
I listen every genre but usually it depends on my mood. Sometimes slow, sometimes fast, sometimes sad when you just scroll down, and sometimes joyful when you know you just wanna chill and have fun listening to music.

Weirdest fan? Normally I meet my fans give them autograph and take pictures and selfies, but one day while Punjab College concert, I was just leaving the stage and a girl just came, hugged me and screamed ‘I love you’ in my ear. I was just surprised and startled, that was the first time I experienced something like this. I’ll always remember this first time.
