Faissal claimed, "They were saying I've got schizophrenia and I'm a mad person. I can harm society. Ye sab baatein ho rahi thi (All this was being talked about). I was looking at myself ki yaar main iss chakravyuh se kaise niklu. Chakravyuh ho gaya tha mere liye. Main usme fass gaya tha kyunki saari family mere khilaaf jaa rahi thi. Mujhe pagal samjh rahe the (How do I get out of this trap? It was a trap for me. I was stuck in it because my family was against me. They were thinking I'm mad).”
Faissal Khan further recalled how he would pray for help, hoping his father would come to his aid. He mentioned that he was married to his second wife at the time.
He shared, “He was away from family politics. Lekin unn tak main pahuchu kaise? Unka number bhi nahi tha mere pass. Aur Aamir ne mujhe qaid kar diya tha ghar me ek saal. Mobile le liya, main bahar nahi jaa sakta (How do I reach him? I didn't have his number. And Aamir had locked me inside the house for a year. My phone was taken, I couldn't go out).”
He continued, “Bodyguard mere room ke bahar. Dawaiyan de rahe hain ( There were bodyguards outside my room. I was given medicine).”
After insisting, Faissal claimed that Aamir let him move to another house after a year.
