👵 Naseebo Lal Shuts Down Fake News | Clarifies She’s a Proud Dadi — Her Son Welcomed a Baby, Not Her!

In yet another instance of social media misinformation, legendary Pakistani singer Naseebo Lal has publicly clarified that she has become a grandmother, not a mother, following a wave of false reports claiming she gave birth at the age of 56.

Singer Addresses Viral Rumors

The rumors began circulating on Facebook and Instagram earlier this week after Naseebo Lal shared a picture of a newborn baby with a caption in Urdu asking followers to suggest a “beautiful and unique name for my beta (son).” The term “beta” — often used affectionately in Pakistani culture for children — led to widespread confusion, with several pages falsely reporting that the singer had welcomed a baby herself.

However, the Tu Jhoom singer quickly took to social media to shut down the misinformation. Hours later, she posted a clarification that read, “Important announcement: Stay away from fake news.” On Wednesday, Naseebo confirmed the truth through another heartfelt post, writing, “Alhamdulillah, I have become a dadi (grandmother),” and thanked her fans for their warm wishes and love.

Social Media Reacts to Clarification

The false news had spread rapidly across various social platforms, with many fans initially congratulating the artist before realizing the misunderstanding. Supporters later flooded her comment sections with messages of love, praising her humility and expressing happiness for her family’s new addition.

A Voice That Defined Generations

Naseebo Lal, a powerhouse in Pakistan’s music industry, has enjoyed a remarkable career spanning over two decades. Her name appears on film soundtracks dating back to the early 2000s, and she has captivated audiences with her rich and soulful voice in both Urdu and Punjabi songs.

She gained renewed fame with the Coke Studio Season 14 hit ‘Tu Jhoom’, a spiritual duet with the iconic Abida Parveen that was celebrated across South Asia. Naseebo also lent her vocals to ‘Groove Mera’, the official anthem for the Pakistan Super League (PSL) 6, alongside Aima Baig and Young Stunners — though the song stirred mixed reactions from cricket fans online.

The Growing Challenge of Online Misinformation

This incident follows closely after another case of fake news involving Abida Parveen, who had to refute baseless reports claiming she was battling cancer. Both cases underscore the growing problem of unverified “news” spreading unchecked on social media, often causing unnecessary confusion and distress.

As Naseebo Lal celebrates the joy of becoming a grandmother, her experience serves as a reminder of how quickly false information can overshadow genuine moments of happiness — and the importance of verifying facts before sharing online.
