The Benjamin sisters Fauzia, Saba, and Zille Huma, who call their group the Manwa Sister declared to be the first ever qawwali singing female group in Pakistan. They will be soon releasing the video for their qawwali “Allah Janay”.
They are originally from Faisalabad, the ladies have become quite famous. The ladies belong to a well-known family, who produce great talent, all the way from Kerala. Saba, one of the three talented sisters said about the connection to music, “Indian superstar Dilip Kumar would frequently invite our grand uncle Rasheed Faridi at his place to listen to him. After our grandfather’s death, no one was interested in continuing with music.”

She further explained the reason behind choosing this name: “We chose the word Manwa because the literal meaning of the word in Urdu is what we want to do. We want to get our talents recognised.”
They have been singing since a long time, “We have been singing at family events and private functions for a while. It wasn’t until three years ago that we finally decided to start our group and take music up as a profession.”
They have further plans to sing for films and are planning to cover songs of their desired music legends. They were trained under qawwali and classical music maestros.

We wish them all the best for their upcoming songs and future plans. We need such talented people in our country.
