Hottie of the week: Bilal Khan

Published: July 17, 2012

We first took notice of singer, songwriter and guitar player Bilal Khan on the stage of Coke Studio Season Four.

Who is he?

We first took notice of singer, songwriter and guitar player Bilal Khan on the stage of Coke Studio Season Four. He was unbelievably talented, undeniably gorgeous and absolutely unaware of both of these qualities. As he sang the lyrics to Tou Kia Hua, he seemed introverted, heartbroken and relatable. We wanted to kill the girl who had caused him so much pain. But ever since then, he’s more than just realised his worth and has been cashing in on his good looks and talent. Now he’s busy touring the world, being a brand ambassador for Levis and recording songs for popular dramas.

Why we love him

While he was still studying at LUMS, this hottie would sit underneath a particular tree on campus and pen lyrics and play the guitar for hours. We can only imagine what that would do to the hearts of all girls at LUMS — aren’t we all absolute suckers for a man who can serenade us?

What you might not know

He bought his first guitar when he was still studying for his ‘O’ levels and taught himself the instrument with the help of the internet. Besides his passion for music, he enjoys drawing comic strips and has an interest in graphic designing.

    He better start modeling now!! As his last few songs were a great disappointment. I was a fan of his work, but amateurish display of lyrics & music in Coke Studio 5 has made me think again.

    By the term WE as used in this article, you must mean You and one or two of your friends. So best of luck as the rest of the world neither considers him charming, nor a singer..particularly he has been mocked as singer over the socail media.
    cheers

    Hi all,

    I dont know why we are not make super starts in Pakistan. We should give full support to those people who start something very good. I think Bilal is very talented guy and good thing is that he is still studying. So best of luck Bilal you are Ubharta Sitara in Pakistani POP industry.Recommend

    Please use some other word instead of ‘hottie’. It looks cheap

    Where are hottie chicks of the week? This newspaper seems a bit racist against women.

    I agree “hottie” does not describe good looking Pakistani men – How about “SEXIST MAN THIS WEEK” which describes his looks and other hidden talents!

    How about ET sponsors you a social life entertaining enough to refrain from posting such low-bow comments ?

    @geeko do you have a problem with @ Malika Megan suggestion why are males like you commenting on a feature dedicated to the female gender?
