The daughters informed the people about the lesser-known facts on their mother, saying, “Mother had an older sister, Api Eedat, who was gorgeous, looked like Kate Winslet and was like a mother figure to our mother.”
However, most of the time Huma ji, their aunt used to tend for the daughter’s when their mom was out establishing her singing career.
The daughters shared a fond memory about their mother on how on different occasions Madam Noor Jehan used to make breakfast for her ex-spouse Ejaz.

They also fondly tell that she never saw a fault in her kids. All her days, nights and free moments were reserved for them, and that’s why they have taken so many traits from her. They tell hat we’re all similar mothers to our own kids now.
“She not only had a great voice but also a great personality. Many fans would come, especially at odd times when we were in London, and I’ve never seen her say no to them,” says one of the sisters.
They also tell the fans of Madam Noor Jehan that she was so humble, she never thought of herself as some glorious Madam Noor Jehan.
Her daughters also tell, “She would give a lot of charity, but she would always spot even a beggar or needy woman sitting behind a tree, knowing they need help. She did it all her life.”
This was the larger than life woman who was not only beautiful but charismatic and timeless too.
