Asim Azhar voices deep concerns for flood-hit Punjab
Asim Azhar has voiced his deep concerns for the people of Punjab as the province battles the worst flooding in its history.
Taking to Instagram, the pop sensation shared a heartfelt story, writing: “[I’m] praying for all my people in Punjab.”
The singer urged residents to remain indoors and prioritise their safety as heavy rains and overflowing rivers continue to wreak havoc across the region.
"Please stay safe, stay indoors," Azhar stressed.
His message comes at a time when several districts in Punjab have been declared calamity-hit, with thousands displaced and critical infrastructure damaged.
A few days ago, Asim Azhar also showed solidarity with the people of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, where floods claimed hundreds of lives and left behind a trail of devastation.
Taking to Instagram, he urged fans to channel the same passion they showed on Independence Day toward relief efforts.
"Today, our land weeps. The floods have taken homes, dreams, and precious lives in Pakistan," the singer said.
He added, "My heart aches for every mother, father, child, and soul affected. In moments like these, we must become one—one nation, one heart, one hand reaching out to another.
“Please keep them in your prayers, and if you are able, extend your support to trusted relief efforts. Together, we can help heal what has been broken."
Floods remain a recurring nightmare for the country, where weak infrastructure, poor urban planning, and climate change worsen the impact of monsoon rains.
Asim Azhar was often dubbed the ‘Justin Bieber of Pakistan’ in his early years. He first gained recognition through YouTube covers of popular songs before making his mark with original tracks.
His breakthrough came with the Coke Studio performance of Tera Woh Pyar alongside Momina Mustehsan in 2016. Since then, Azhar has consistently delivered chart-topping songs, including Jo Tu Na Mila, Humraah, and Ghalat Fehmi.
