## Carrera

Su primer álbum como solista titulado "Raag Time" o "El tiempo Raag", fue publicado en 1991. Unos años más adelante, en 1994, por primera vez compuso un tema musical para una película titulada, "Sargam". La película de Pakistán, "Adnan", vio el punto de mira con su esposa, Zeba, que fue expresada por el famoso cantante indio Asha Bhosle. Sargam fue un gran éxito, sin embargo, las autoridades excluyeron la voz de Asha de la banda sonora, de manera que Adnan en mala gana, tuvo que volver a entrar a estudios de grabación con Hadiqa Kiani.
