Qazi Touqeer, born June 2, 1985 in Srinagar, Jammu and Kashmir, was one of the three finalists of Fame Gurukul, one of the most watched television shows in India - along with Rex D'Souza and Ruprekha Banerjee. On 20 October 2005, he managed to grab the top prize along with Ruprekha Banerjee.
All through the 4 months spent in Gurukul, Qazi was criticized, being just saved 10 times from being voted out. But ultimately his performing ability along with his singing paid off. He released a new album out along with Ruprekha Banerji at the end of 2005. Qazi had no formal training before Fame Gurukul.
