Rahat Fateh Ali Khan (RFAK) is a Pakistani musician predominantly gained renown in performing Qawwali, a devotional melody of the Muslim Sufis. He is a renowned playback singer in Pakistan as well as Indian cinema.
On 9th December 1974, RFAK was born in a Punjabi family of classical singers and Qawwals in Faisalabad, Punjab, Pakistan. He is the son of Farrukh Fateh Ali Khan, grandson of Fateh Ali Khan and the nephew of legendary Qawwali singer Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan.

Since childhood, RFAK was fond of music and often found to be singing with his uncle and father. At the age of seven, he started learning the art of singing Qawwali by his uncle Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan. RFAK was just 9 when he performed publicly for the first time at his grandfathers’ death anniversary. At 15, he became an important part of Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan’s famous qawwali group and traveled around the UK with his uncle in 1985. Subsequently, he began to present a solo performance at several concerts.

His debut in playback singing in Bollywood began with the song “Mann Ki Lagan” in the movie Paap in 2003. In April 2012, Rahat performed at Wembley Arena and the Manchester Arena at the UK, which created a record of maximum ticket sales to over 20,000 people.

He was the first Pakistani to perform at the Nobel Prize concert in 2014. He had presented an incredible performance on his uncle, Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan’s unforgettable qawwali songs including Tumhe Dillagi, Mast Qalandar, and Aao Parhao.
