Part-time singer in Peshawar, Pakistan. After giving interviews at Pashto entertainment channels like Shamshad TV and Khaybar she became more noticeable. She has performed in many places throughout her life including Iran. Farzana's most popular concert was in Lashkar Gah, Helmand.[1][2] Twelve thousand people attended the concert and was hailed as a success by local authorities. However, the local Deputy Governor was sacked after tribal leaders got angry, saying he shouldn't have let an Afghan woman without a head scarf sing on stage even though Afghan law does not force women to wear head scarves.[3][4]

After her song, Shamal[5] was released, Farzana was showered with good responses.[6]
