Khursheed Bano - Migration To Pakistan

Migration To Pakistan

Her last film in India was Papeeha Re (1948), which was a great hit, prior to her migration to Pakistan, leaving her mark in the Indian film industry. Khursheed migrated to Pakistan after the Partition of India, with her husband where she settled down in Karachi, Sind, Pakistan.

She worked in two films in 1956, Fankar and Mandi. Mandi attracted some attention because of Khursheed, but because of technical shortcomings including poor direction, neither Khursheed as singer nor Rafiq Ghaznavi's musical score were able to produce the hoped-for ticket sales. Fankar was produced by Robert Malik, a physics teacher at Saint Paul's English High, a Christian missionary high school in Karachi. The film also lagged in commercial success.
