‘Aamir Khan was brainwashed…', Brother Faissal Khan reveals family tried to separate them— EXCLUSIVE
Faissal Khan blames his family for the feud between him and his brother, Aamir Khan
While shedding light on his family issues, he applauded his brother Aamir Khan and revealed that he is the only one who has helped him.
Faissal mentioned that after leaving home and starting to live alone, he realised that no one was offering him work. It was Aamir who made some calls and helped him with a job to make ends meet. 'I know Aamir. He is very kind. Aamir ka ye kaam hi nahi ho sakta ki Aamir aisa soche aur ye sab kare,' said Faissal Khan.
The actor further blamed his close ones for the distance between him and Aamir and even claimed that his brother was brainwashed. Faissal Khan remarked, 'He (Aamir Khan) was brainwashed by the family- some aunts, uncles, and close ones. Kuch logon ko bhaiyon ki closeness bhi achhi nahi lagti. Wo chahte hai ki bhai separate rahe. I've experienced all this over the years.'

Aap logo ne signatory rights lene ki baat ki toh maine ghar chhoda. Warna main kahan ghar chhor raha tha. Jab aapne ek gaal pe thappad mara tab hi maine react kiya. Kuch clarity mili hi nahi hai kaafi cheezon par.'

Why did Aamir Khan spend Rs 122 crore on making Sitaare Zameen Par? Actor reveals being at odds with partner over digital release
Aamir Khan took the internet by storm when he announced that his film Sitaare Zameen Par will be directly released on YouTube, opposed to an OTT deal. Now, the actor has revealed that he had to spend a total of Rs 122 crore for the film, owing to this decision. Why does Sitaare Zameen Par have a budget of Rs 122 crore? In his podcast chat with Matthew Belloni, Aamir Khan said, 'I had to pay a price also because I had a partner with me earlier, and they weren't very keen on this rash idea of mine. They didn't like me turning down money, so they preferred that I buy them out, and so therefore the film has actually cost me about Rs 122 crore.' The filmmaker continued that initially the budget for SZP was Rs 96 crore but the amount to make it available on Pay-Per-View model came out of his own pocket. Aamir added, 'It's doing way beyond what YouTube expected. I'm not allowed to give numbers, so I'm afraid I won't be able to give any numbers right now. I hope that I make the money back, and right now both YouTube and I are separately promoting it on the platform.' About Sitaare Zameen Par Talking about the film, Sitaare Zameen Par is a sports comedy drama featuring Aamir Khan in the lead role. The movie is an official remake of the 2018 Spanish film Champions, focusing on the story of a suspended basketball coach. After getting into an accident, the man is ordered by the court to serve community service. This leads him to help and train a team of players with disabilities in an upcoming tournament, ultimately changing his life too. With Khan in the lead role, the film features an ensemble cast of actors like Genelia D'Souza, Aroush Datta, Gopi Krishnan Varma, Vedant Sharma, Naman Misra, and many more in key roles. Aamir Khan's next Aamir Khan will be appearing in a cameo role for Coolie, starring Rajnikanth. The film is slated to release on August 14, 2025, with stars like Nagarjuna Akkineni and Upendra Rao also being a part of it.
