Haroon's mother was born in Christchurch, New Zealand where she trained to be an opera singer.

She moved to London where she met Haroon's father.

After living in the UK for several years, Zulfiqar returned to Lahore in the early 1970s with his wife to run the family business.

After graduating in the early 1990s with a degree in business administration from George Washington University in the United States, he formed the band Awaz with a couple of musician friends, Faakhir and Assad Ahmed.

The band gained instant fame because of their catchy tunes, good looks, lavish music videos, and crazy stage performances.
