Over the next several years Nazia and Zoheb continued to rock not just the Pakistani but also the Indian disco scene; Disco Deewane that broke sales records across the subcontinent was followed by four more albums - Boom Boom, Young Tarang, Hotline and Camera Camera - released between 1982 and 1992.

N. Hassan n'a cessé de promouvoir le soutien aux enfants, aux déshérités, aux toxicomanes. Bien qu'elle ait toujours considéré la musique pop comme un passe-temps, son influence artistique s'est révélée considérable."
