"I’m really chilled because acting was always just a hobby. I’ve been boxing since I was a kid. I’m still trying to keep that up. I like running, working out, walking, grabbing a coffee, and speaking to my mum. I’m so boring."

Zain Iqbal Age

Iqbal revealed that he started his acting journey "with student films" before he "caught the bug," and then wanted to do more as he loved "stepping into someone’s shoes" with new role: He said, "I have always had a love for films and acting since childhood. So, I decided to try it out and see where it goes. I started with student films, did classes here and there, and then you can say I caught the bug, I guess. And then I just started doing it more. And then I started to enjoy making characters and stepping into someone’s shoes and feeling like what they’re going through."
Zain Iqbal Parents and Family
The details of Zain Iqbal's parents are not available at the moment. He once said in an interview, "I’ve done loads of short films, some of which I wish weren’t on the Internet. I did a lot of corporate jobs that paid the bills."
"I’ve been watching films for a long time. My dad would play the classics like 'The Godfather' and 'The Good, the Bad and the Ugly' when I was a little kid, so Marlon Brando and Clint Eastwood are the actors I grew up watching. And when I started taking acting seriously, I started looking for people like me. So then, well, there are only a few people doing it, and you can count them on one hand. So then I started to look at people like Riz Ahmed and Dev Patel and how they’re going about in the industry, and I can relate to them the most."
Zain Iqbal Career
Zain Iqbal is an actor and is on the way to build a successful career in acting. He said, "My love for film really began with my dad playing classics around the house when I was a little kid, like 'The Good, the Bad and the Ugly,' 'The Godfather' and 'The Great Escape.' People like Clint Eastwood, Marlon Brando and Steve McQueen quickly became my favourites. When I started getting serious about acting, I naturally started to look at where I wanted to belong in this industry and that led to me discovering Riz Ahmed and Dev Patel. They have both done so much in terms of representation in the industry. I love Riz’s film, The Sound of Metal — it’s such a huge movie for me. I look up to so many, Jack O’Connell, Ben Mendelsohn, Barry Keoghan, Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson. I’m drawn to actors that have very unique, almost odd, approaches to the craft."
