Britain's Got Talent star Sirine Jahangir's exclusive interview. British Pakistani teenage music sensation Sirine Jahangir, who has become a worldwide star after mesmerising the Britain’s Got Talent judges and the audience, says she’s overwhelmed by the worldwide applause she got for her performance.
In an exclusive interview at her North London home, Sirine shared that her life changed instantly from singing in her living room for her brothers to singing to millions of people live and then getting noticed by more across the world.
Sirine, 14, lost her sight at the age of 10 but says that music is her vision.
"I never ever expected any of this. I started taking music seriously at 10. My friends asked why I didn't perform and now I'm here and it's so incredible. I went to watch BGT last year with my friends and they asked me to give it a go. I thought I only perform for school shows and BGT is such a huge platform. I am happy that I have been able to put smiles on faces of people through my music. It’s incredible," she said.
Sirine is the granddaughter of Sahibzada Jahangir, one of Prime Minister Imran Khan’s oldest friends and his spokesperson on Trade & Investment in UK & Europe.
Sirine said that Imran Khan visited her home near Hyde Park years ago and met her. That time, Sirine could see from one eye and later her parents moved from Central London to North London to get her in a school which offered facilities for children who suffered from blindness.
“I want to follow the footsteps of Imran Khan for charitable work. He has done so much good work in the field of charity. I am not in BGT to become a celebrity but to use the platform to carry out work that could help others and help me shine light on the difficulties faced by people who suffer from disadvantages in life," she added.
Born in 2005 in London, she started losing her vision form the age of 5 but excelled in everything including sports and dancing.
She recalled how music has been her companion throughout her life. "Music has never been a struggle for me because I have done music all my life. When I was a child I used to listen to Prince's music and sing along to it. When I lost my sight I started paying more attention and I started writing music and playing the piano to focus on my hardships and to express myself through music."
Speaking of her uncle Junaid Jamshed, the late pop star of ‘Dil Dil Pakistan' fame, Sirine said: "He was an amazing man. Whenever he would come to London he would visit me. He always advised me never to give up. It's a shame that I wasn’t that much into music at that time as I am now. He was always encouraging."
Overwhelmed by the love and attention Sirine has received from worldwide audiences, she said: "I have been getting a lot of social media inspiration. My father and grandfather told me two things; always be happy, stay grateful and never give up and I have always stuck to those two pieces of advice. It's due to these that I have come this far. My message to all the people in Pakistan is that I am so grateful for all the love and support you have given me. It sums up everything."
Sirine has been watching the hit talent show since she was five. She says her family always encouraged her never to be afraid and try new things in life.
Sirine smiled when talking about the love she has received from Pakistan. Pakistani media picked up her news after The News and Geo first aired that a 14-year-old blind British Pakistani girl has performed at the BGT.
“I wasn’t aware of how much support I was getting from Pakistan until my dad read Pakistani press for me. It’s been crazy. Last week nobody knew me but this week so many know me and have shown support. I am so grateful for all the love that I am receiving from Pakistan. I can say I have become a competition to my grandfather because only he used to get all the press," she said.
Sirine plans to visit Pakistan in the near future. “I haven’t been to Pakistan for a few years but I will be there soon Inshallah.”

Ma sha Allha welldone sister you've got very good voice wise you all the best
I would like to respond, because Sirine Jahangir is a beautiful girl and a great singer .. But that overly irritating advertisement that you have burned in the movie is far too much for me .. Do normal dude ..
She reminds me of Nazia Hassan (May her soul rest in peace). Nazia Hassan was also gifted with beautiful voice and heart but struggled alot in her life.
I hope Pakistani would not declared her another Wester spy
@@uabbasi1293 Pakistani people are great. No one said anything about Nazia Hassan she was also a British national but everyone loves her and still she has a huge respect in people's heart. If you are talking about Malala that is a different case. Otherwise Pakistani people are loving and they love and respect others. Peace 👍
Why you keep repeating same clips for certain answer ... 😑
Have you visit the PHILIPPINES before iloveyou SIRINE💋💋💋💋💋 ....
i think this girl is great and I wish her good fortunes. But advertisement for that Trump guy? Why does he want my country too?
Sirine is exellent!! ..I think I have wached all of Her performances.. She`s great in any way possible!!! As a Singer , and pianoplayer!!! ..but the "Interwiewer" here is horrible.. ..bad questions and accent !! .. I mean : come on(!) , try a little!! ..and I am not even English..
Sirin , Jesus is the Lord! The Creator of the universe will ever reward men with The Lust of the flesh! Allah is Satan !
Be blessed in Jesus name and I don’t see myself in a position to give you any advise ! I am to learn from you!
Love you my feature sister in Christ ❤️
