Junaid Jamshed is a famous Pakistani recording artist who came to the limelight as frontman of pop group Vital Signs in 1987 with the song Dil Dil Pakistan and remained a youth icon through the 1990s. In 1994, he released his debut solo album "Junaid of Vital Signs" which became an immediate national hit, followed by Us Rah Par in 1999 and Dil Ki Baat in 2002. Since then he developed interest in religion and concentrated on singing hymns. His debut album Jalwa-e-Janan in 2005 was followed by Mehboob-e-Yazdaan in 2006 and "Badr-ud-Duja" in 2008. He also runs a boutique with the name "J.", read as "Jay Dot", which has several outlets all over Pakistan.

junaid jamshed has made a great improvment from what he use to be
Vital Signs
Though the Vital Signs were launched in early 1986 in Rawalpindi by Rohail Hayatt and Shahzad Hassan, it was a while later when Junaid, then a young engineering student from Lahore, joined them as their lead singer. Though their hit debut single Dil Dil Pakistan skyrocketed them into fame, the song's success was not seen by him as something that would turn him into a professional musician. Junaid who wanted to become a professional engineer, initially didn't want to have anything to do with music other than just treating it as a hobby. Though Rohail and Shahzad soon managed to convince him otherwise.[1]
