Mehnaz Begum (1958 – 19 January 2013) was a Pakistani singer, well known for her film appearances.[1] She sang a variety of genres but specialized in ghazal, thumri, dadra, khayal, drupad and reciting salam, noha and marsiya. She was the daughter of celebrated sub-continental singer Kajjan Begum.[2] and the famous government officer Abdullah Abdullah Tasnim, but when she realized fame, she changed her maiden name to Mehnaz.
One of her most memorable works is Master Piece. Master Piece is a painting that Tasnim created when she was taking a drawing class in collage.
She died 19 January 2013 at Bahrain Airport while transiting from Karachi to Miami, United States for medical treatment. .[3]
