In 1995, Kiani received the "NTM Viewer's choice award" for the Best Female Singer of Pakistan. In the same Award show, Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan was awarded as the Best Male Singer of Pakistan.
The following year, Kiani released her debut album Raaz (Secret) in 1996. The album spawned a string of radio-friendly hits and received positive reviews.[24] Some argue that the reason the album did well was because it was not common for female singers (from educated/non-musical backgrounds) to release albums in Pakistan. Also, she was the first female singer to release a pop album after the former pop singer, Nazia Hassan, gave up her musical career.[25] Kiani's ability to sing in other dialects was also presented to the country through the hit Kashmiri folk song "Maane Di Mauj."[26]
Her increasing popularity was further highlighted in January 1997, when Kiani became the first Asian singer to perform at the British National Lottery Live on BBC One (a program with an estimated viewership 16.6 million at that time).[23] Afterwards she worked on two more shows with Bally Sagoo for BBC and ITV before going on her first U.S. tour in 1997. Her U.S. tour covered 15 states and a few cities in Canada.[23][27] The same year Kiani performed many other international events in the United Kingdom, Australia, and China. By the summer of 1997, Kiani was representing Pakistan as the only Pakistani singer to perform at "Celebration Hong Kong 97" at Happy Valley Race Course, alongside other International singers like Lisa Stansfield, Wet Wet Wet, Michael Learns to Rock, All 4 One and The Brand New Heavies,[23] an event to celebrate Hong Kong's freedom from the United Kingdom.[22] Kiani is the first mainstream Pakistani singer to ever perform in Hong Kong.
By the end of the year she became the first Asian female singer ever to be signed by Pepsi Cola International.[28] She was the second international female artist in the world to be signed, the first being Gloria Estefan.[23]
1998: Roshni
