Originally hailing from Tarzoo village of Sopore, Kamran’s journey from a small village to representing his state at the national level exemplifies how sports can break barriers and provide avenues for success.

Coming from a family with a football legacy, Kamran attributes his love for the sport to his father, a renowned footballer, and uncles who also played football.
