Parvin Shokoohi Moghadam (born December 1, 1952, in Tabriz) is an actress and singer whose artistic roots trace back to a culturally rich family. She is the daughter of Taj Yozbashi Jahani (1937–1987), one of Tabriz’s most celebrated singers of the 1930s and 1940s, whose powerful voice and influential performances left a lasting imprint on the region’s musical heritage. Growing up surrounded by music, Parvin developed a deep passion for the arts at a young age. Her entry into the world of music came in 1960, when she performed the song “Madager Biaram,” composed by Javad Lashgari, with lyrics by Mahdakht Mokhbar.
The song’s success brought her immediate attention, not only for her vocal talent but also for her captivating presence. Her rising popularity soon attracted filmmakers, and Parvin transitioned into acting as well. In 1975, she appeared in two motion pictures—“Madar Doost Daram” and “Khafb”—which marked her official debut in cinema. Her performances, known for their emotional depth and authenticity, introduced her to a broader national audience and cemented her place among notable actresses of the era.
