Early life[edit]

Khan was born in Chittagong, Bangladesh on 1 July 1961. He has 4 brothers and 2 sisters. He attended Saint Placid's High School and University of Chittagong. Khan's childhood memories were filled with carefree days of games, art and music which was cherished in his household. Painting was his first passion, which was appreciated by his family and friends. He spent most of his spare moments in the classroom sketching on every surface he could get his hands on. He regularly participated in inter- and intra-school art competitions winning prices.

Career[edit]

Khan started his journey with Souls in 1980 as Naquib Khan invited him to join the band as a member, mainly to perform English covers, which he gladly accepted. Khan found that though his presence in singing popular English covers in concerts were large and desired by audience, his participation in albums were negligible as he could not perform in Bangla. He was determined to get into the main stream of Bangla rock and cut a solo album signed Naseem Ali Khan in 1989. The album had multiple hits and was appreciated by the mass audience and he could establish himself as vocals in the main stream band musical arena. He then later released his second solo album Kichukhon Age in 2000.
