Not yet notable WP:NACTOR or WP:NMODEL. All minor acting roles so far. What's cited here already is all of the reliable sources I could find online in English or Urdu, and all are primary sources: interviews, and an appearance on a TV panel game show. The only secondary coverage I could find was passing mentions in TV articles. Editors wishing to search should note that the first name is sometimes spelled "Osman" in English, and the surname is sometimes spelled "Bhatt". There's a lot of secondary coverage of the unrelated actor Osman Khalid Butt (عثمان خالد بٹ), so I tried to exclude "Khalid" (خالد) from the search, but still couldn't improve on the sources cited.

Keep, WP:Notable actor appeared in mainstream channels on Pakistani television. As far as your search results are concerned, yes since there is Osman Khalid Butt who is a more popular actor, his results overtake Usman Butt search results. If you'll google him mentioning his projects, you'll find his interviews.182.182.57.188 (talk) 08:39, 10 February 2024 (UTC)— 182.182.57.188 (talk) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

Interviews are WP:Primary sources, and don't contribute to notability per WP:BIO. What's needed here is WP:Independent, WP:Secondary, WP:Reliable sources. Wikishovel (talk) 08:42, 10 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. His interview does cover how he started his modeling career and later acting. Usman's interview with The News International is a major newspaper in Pakistan.(2400:ADCC:105:2200:DD7E:47CD:1682:90FC (talk) 12:04, 10 February 2024 (UTC)) — 2400:ADCC:105:2200:DD7E:47CD:1682:90FC (talk) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

Delete: BLP, Fails GNG and NBIO. Sources in article (interviews) and BEFORE found nothing with WP:SIGCOV from WP:IS WP:RS addressing the subject directly and indepth; Source eval:

BEFORE found interviews/promos, name mentions/listings, nothing with SIGCOV. Keep votes provide no sourcing. BLPs require strong sourcing. // Timothy :: talk 02:34, 13 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
