once the songs were recorded."

don't want to pursue music as a career. For me, it was hard to make a decision
since I had no references. Maybe after me, people would come out to show their
talent," and explained "I don't think releasing number of albums
defines a musician. I do music for myself and not for the masses. I'm not into
the idea of being a celebrity or having people know or follow me."

life and social work

experience of overcoming depression. In response to the family separation
policy by the U.S President Donald Trump, Mustehsan wrote on twitter:
"Separating children from their families is traumatic and makes them more
vulnerable in every way. This is inhuman. Children are children first; their
immigration status shouldn’t rip them away from their families."
In an online interview, Mustehsan stated that she had
donated all of her earnings of 2016 to make water-wells in the Thar desert of
Sindh. Mustehsan is planning a distant education program for children in rural
Pakistan along with a polio campaign. In a chat show, she said, "I plan
introducing distant education plans for children in rural areas where there are
no schools or a learning environment. We'll introduce learning videos which,
along with projectors, would be provided to the mosques in different areas to
enable children to learn. From making roties [bread] to learning physics,
they'll get it all." In 2017, Mustehsan was a part of the United Nations
Women "Beat Me" campaign that aimed to address the issue of domestic
violence in the country. During the campaign, Mustehsan talked about feminism
in Pakistan, and said:
"Do we hate our women? I don't think so. In fact,
Pakistan has more women representation in government than the U.S., and we have
twice elected a female head of state. Empowering women in Pakistan would mean
raising them equal to boys, providing them the same education, giving them the
same job opportunities, equal wages and equal respect."
In May 2018, Mustehsan (along with Sajal Aly, Ahad Raza Mir,
Ali Rehman Khan, Sonya Hussain, Younis Khan, Ali Sethi and Gul Panra), appeared
