The 10th HUM Awards Light Up Houston

When the stars of Pakistan take the stage abroad, it’s never just a show; it’s a statement. On October 11, 2025, the 10th HUM Awards brought that energy to Houston, filling the city with lights, laughter, and the sound of a decade-long legacy coming full circle.

It was a night of showstopping performances, dazzling red-carpet moments, and the familiar faces audiences have loved for years. From the electrifying performance by Mehwish Hayat and Humayun Saeed to Asim Azhar’s powerful opening act, the evening delivered spectacle and star power in equal measure. Each act brought its own spark, turning the stage into a showcase of everything that defines HUM: glamour, talent, and charisma.

The red carpet shimmered with contemporary elegance and the vibrant flair that defines Pakistani fashion. Inside, the performances struck a perfect balance between nostalgia and newness. Tributes to beloved icons met rising stars who represent where the industry is headed next.

This year, Ishq Murshid stole the spotlight, sweeping major awards and reminding everyone why Pakistani storytelling continues to captivate audiences across borders. Beyond the trophies and applause, the night felt bigger. It was a reflection of how far entertainment in Pakistan has come since HUM first began bringing it together.

For over a decade, the HUM Awards have been more than a televised event. They have mirrored the evolution of Pakistani entertainment, celebrating the artists, producers, and viewers who have shaped its journey. Hosting the ceremony outside Pakistan carried a sense of home for the diaspora while marking HUM’s continued growth beyond borders.

In the end, it wasn’t just about who won. It was about pride in the craft, the community, and the creative movement HUM helped build.
