Khan received a Bafta EE Rising Star nominee for his portrayal of Tyler in County Lines in 2021.
Speaking to Harper’s BAZAAR, he said: “To be nominated for a BAFTA is a lifetime achievement, and for it to come at such a young age, personally it’s really humbling.
“But at the same time, it gives me energy. It’s the reason I get up every day. And just to be talked about among some of the past nominees… I mean, just looking at that list, it amazes me every time.”
He finished by saying: “I’m still coming to terms with it. I’m still pinching myself.”
Khan has also appeared in Black Mirror: Smithereens (2019) and the second series of Baptiste as WIll Chambers (2021).
