Usman Mukhtar is on a roll. The actor, who has amassed a dedicated following after his many fan-favourite stints, is all set to star in the promising spectacle that is Umro Ayyar – A New Beginning.

Being super excited about his upcoming movie, Usman remarked, "It’s the first live-action sci-fi, fantasy film from Pakistan. This movie has already created history by being the first South Asian film presented at WonderCon." The star also added how playing Umro was "truly a dream come true." He shared, "Playing Umro Ayyar is an honour for me, honestly. I could have never imagined in a million years that I would be able to portray Umro Ayyar in my lifetime."

Talking about the impact of such ambitious projects on the landscape of Pakistani cinema, Usman expressed, "I believe it will have a significant impact on the mindset of producers, giving courage to independent producers to create unique content and think outside the box. I hope directors and producers start to experiment more with the sci-fi and fantasy genres."
