Mubarak Begum Hails from , Sabrangpur Darwaza, (Ahmedabad) , Rajasthan before settling in Mumbai. The aspiring singer would imitate her idol Suraiya by singing her songs till she had perfected them. Riyazuddin Khan, nephew of the great Indian Classical vocalist Abdul Karim Khan was her Ustad (teacher). She however learnt only enough classical music to enable her to do riyaaz (practice) so as to not let it hamper her light classical music aspirations.
She started her musical career doing shows for the All India Radio. She got her first break when Rafiq Ghaznavi, who gave the immortal motto for Mehboob Khan Films, 'Muddayi Lakh Bura Chahe Kya Hota Hai, Wohi Hota Hai Jo Manzure Khuda Hota Hai', heard her voice and asked her to sing for his film. On the day of the rehearsal at Film Center, Tardeo, stage fright struck the yet raw and uninitiated singer and she faltered on her big day. This could have unhinged a newcomer, but Mubarak Begum was too young to understand the implications of her early failure.

@moula53 Hey! It is not allah( the imaginary muslim god ) who taught her these songs. Islam itself has nothing to offer in terms of music,song and dance.Who is that GOD who created songs,music,and dance?Why do you have to follow these things. You claim things that do not belong to you as yours. Are you not thieves?

Mubarak begum has exceptional voice. She falls under the gene of Sudha malhotra, Suman kalyanpur, Kamal barot. And Lata always win the game. It is sad game.
I liked her songs in "hamari Yaad Ayegi" the most, seems like Tanuja herself was singing.
