Last week singer Qurutulain Baloch (who sang the title track for the hit drama serial Humsafar) met with an accident in Lahore. She was severely injured as her spine was hurt in the accident. Initially doctors thought that her injuries were of a mild nature, but when the artist suffered serious pain in her back, doctors checked her again. She remained under treatment for some days and is now recuperating. Those who are close to her say she needs to rest up for a decent stretch of time. We pray that the singer with a big voice and heart recovers soon.
