Faisal Khan was in the news recently after he alleged that his family forcefully gave him medicines and kept him under house arrest for a year. Speaking about it in an interview, Khan said, "When the family felt that I was depressed and had paranoid schizophrenia, they kept me under house arrest for one year and gave me forceful medication."
Now, in another interview with ETimes, Faisal Khan has opened up about being in brother Aamir Khan's shadow, and wanting to create his own identity. When asked if he received any help from Aamir for his directorial debut Faactory, Faisal said, "No, I didn't get any help from Aamir, he has not even heard the script of the film that I am making. And I didn't need any help as such because I've been through the process. I joined as a third assistant and climbed my way up to the first assistant, then I have acted in a couple of films, I have done TV, theatre. I have gone through the whole grind."
