LONDON: A 14-year-old British Pakistani girl who lost sight at the age of 10 has become an instant hit at the popular show – Britain’s Got Talent.
Sirine Jahnagir is the only contestant of Pakistani origin on the show and is the granddaughter of Sahibzada Jahangir, who presently serves as Prime Minister Imran Khan’s spokesperson on Trade & Investment in UK & Europe. She is a niece to Fauzia Kasuri as well as Junaid Jamshed.
Sirine is in the race for finale and has become an instant hit after outperforming her rivals through her amazing music performances.
Born in 2005, she excelled in everything including sports, with dancing being her favourite pastime but she lost her vision totally in one eye by the age of five and lost vision gradually in her remaining eye by the age of 10.
However, the lost vision could not halt her growth and her passion took her, after a gruelling process of selection, to Britain’s Got Talent.
