Early life
Mustafa was born in Lahore. He is the nephew of Ali Azmat,[4] the former lead vocalist of the famous rock band Junoon, and is also related to the late Sufi kalam singer, actor, director, and producer Inayat Hussain Bhatti.[5] As a child, he never thought he would become a singer. Known for his daring personality from a young age, he once hosted a college event where his professors asked him to sing. Hesitantly, he sang a few lines of "Bheegi Bheegi Raaton Mein," and this experience motivated him to pursue a career in singing.[6]
