Natasha Noorani has been leading the charge for not just women in Pakistani Music but the entire industry in general. From creating the Lahore Music Meet alongside a close friend and partner Zara Paracha, the seeds had been planted to what has led her to today, where she is not only creating hits after hits such as Choro and Faltu Pyar but also evolving the industry from behind the scenes as well. As she managed Pakistan's arguably most popular band of recent times Strings as well as managing Coke Studio as well, helping the latter become the juggernaut it is today.

In this podcast, Natasha gives some of the greatest insight into not just the present new wave we are witnessing in Pakistani Music today but also highlights the need to preserve its past before it withers away from memory. 

We are assured that you will enjoy this one even more than we did ourselves.

Eman 'Falcon' Khan is one of the very few but significant figures not just in Women's MMA but for Pakistani Sports in general. Alongside names like Anita Karim, Eman Khan has in a short amount of time catapulted herself on everyone's radar since her first victory at the inaugural ARY Warriors, representing Pakistan in a historic moment at the 2021 IMMF Championships and as well another victory at KO1. She also talks about for the first time in detail when she had to pull out of her bout at ARY Warriors 2 when she was attacked by a guard dog in one of the most heartbreaking moments in recent PAKMMA History.

We are so excited to finally have her in the studio as supposed to on a zoom call and we are assured you will enjoy this one a ton!
