Nazir was born in 1904 in a
Punjab, British India.[1][2] He had at least three wives over the years. He was first married to his cousin Sikandara Begum (who was the sister of K.

After their divorce, Sitara Devi married none other than Nazir's cousin K. Asif himself. In other words, she married first the husband and then the brother of Sikandara Begum. Nazir's last wife was film actress Swaran Lata.[1][3]
