On ice baths and favourite acting role

Usman Mukhtar hosts Q/A session on IG

Usman Mukhtar initiated a Q/A session on Instagram, where he encouraged his followers to ask away while his fans obliged with fun questions.

One follower shared the possibility of writing a story and reaching out to Usman during the casting period, then wondering aloud if he would agree to it. "Of course! If the script is good then definitely," the 39-year-old actor delightfully answered, flaunting enthusiasm for his work from the get-go.

Another user brought up Usman's fondness for ice baths and asked about its benefits to health, which prompted a lengthy response from the Sabaat actor. "An ice bath can be beneficial for health in certain situations, such as helping reduce muscle soreness and inflammation after intense physical activity. It may also help improve circulation and recovery."

"However, it's important to note that ice baths are not suitable for everyone, especially for individuals with certain medical conditions. Before incorporating ice baths into your routine, it's essential to consult your doctor to ensure it's safe and appropriate for your specific health needs," he further advised.

Although insightful, the suggestion was also subjected to lighthearted wisecracks from followers. "Be honest, Usman bhai, did you endure agony the first time you tried an ice bath?" To this Usman responded with laughing emojis and a simple, "A lot."

Fans from across the border also took this opportunity to express their admiration. "Lots of love from Bangladesh," wrote one user. "You are one of the finest Pakistani actors. I've been a huge fan of your work since Anaa. Take love," wrote another Bangladeshi enthusiast.

He was further asked about a character he portrayed that he still holds very close to his heart. "Sarmad Zaman from Chikkar," he mentioned, maintaining consistency since the last time he was asked this question in the March Q/A session. As a final question, he was asked about upcoming projects, to which he responded, "Fatima Jinnah."
