Mukhtar said in his post that he had lodged a complaint with the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) regarding harassment, but after a lapse of one and a half year nothing is known. He further added, “My mental health has suffered, my anxiety has been messing with my health because of this person.”

“I had wanted to resolve this quietly, in order to not bring negative attention onto a woman, any woman, but I can’t remain silent in good conscience while my character is constantly being maligned,” he said.

The actor shared a screenshot of the female artist’s message to him but did not mention anything about the woman’s name and identity.

Usman Mukhtar said that he had worked on a music video with a female artist in 2016 and during the entire shoot, there were creative differences regarding his video and they were discussed several times.
