Manzoor Sakhiran (Sindhi: منظور سخيراڻي) (Urdu:منظور سخیرانی), known as Ustad Manzoor Sakhirani, is a Sindhi singer from the Dadu Sindh region. He became a professional singer in 1980.

He performs folk songs and patriotic regional songs; often at literary gatherings.[1][2] He released his first album, Band Darwazo Ta, in 1980, followed by more than 30 others. His work is supplemented via a second singer, Shaman Mirali, who attained prominence in 1990; his music remains notable for his Sindhi identity.
