The first video aired on MTV Pakistan was Duppatta by Hadiqa Kiani. The video starts pop-diva Hadiqa Kiani, singing about her Duppatta (a long scarf wore by Pakistani women) and relating it with her love. The video is portrayed as MTV's step to show that even it is an American channel; it does respect Pakistani values. The first VJs to appear on MTV Pakistan were Wiqar and Mahira.
