Nimratpal Kaur Khaira (born 8 August 1992), known professionally as Nimrat Khaira, is an Indian singer and actress known for her work in Punjabi-language music and films. She started her singing career with the songs "Rabb Karke" and "SP De Rank Wargi" and debuted as an actor in 2017 with Lahoriye.
Khaira won the third season of the reality television series Voice of Punjab in 2012.
She started her singing career from a duet song "Rab Karke" with Nishawn Bhullar, which was released on 24 September 2015 by record label Punjaab Records. The song received good response from audience, but she received much attention through her next two songs "Ishq Kacheri" and "SP De Rank Wargi", both released in 2016. She gained fame after the release of "Ishq Kacheri". She continued her success with songs like "Salute Wajde" in 2016. In the same year, she performed at Saras Mela, held in Bathinda, and hosted the third edition of Radio Mirchi Music Awards, which were held the following year. In 2017, she launched many hit singles, such as "Rohab Rakhdi", "Dubai Wale Sheikh", "Suit" and "Designer". She also won Best Female Vocalist award for her duo "Dubai Wale Sheikh" from Manje Bistre at Brit Asia Awards and nominated for a Filmfare Punjabi Award. The song also peaked on UK Asian chart. Her single "Suit" entered top 20 in the chart.
Her song "Designer", produced by Deep Jandu, garnered controversy after a foreign composer, Zwirek, claimed the music was plagiarised from his song, which led to the removal of the song from YouTube. Later, the song was re-added to YouTube, after the composition was proved legally original.
She started her film career in 2017 with Lahoriye, wherein she played the role of Kikkar's sister Harleen Kaur. She was nominated for Best Debut Performance and Best Supporting Actress at BritAsia Music & Film Awards.
Her second film, Afsar, released on 5 October 2018. The film marked her debut as a lead actress, where Khaira shared screen with Tarsem Jassar. She played the role of Harman, a teacher in a government school.
She starred alongside Ammy Virk and Sargun Mehta in Amberdeep Singh's Saunkan Saunkne, which released in 2022. Her film Jodi, which was written and directed by Amberdeep Singh, was released in 2023. In the film, she starred opposite Diljit Dosanjh. It was her second collaboration with Singh and Rhythm Boyz Entertainment after Lahoriye (2017).
Khaira faced strong opposition in Punjab over the film ', along with Gippy Grewal. Several Sikh organisations protested against the film, claiming that the film distorted Sikh history and that the film shows several Sikh characters consuming meat and alcohol, which goes against Sikh religious beliefs; several screenings of the film were cancelled at various locations.
In 2025, she appeared in the film Sarbala Ji directed by Mandeep Kumar and in Saunkan Saunkanay 2, directed by Smeep Kang.
