Faissal Khan on constantly being asked about taking brother Aamir Khan's help in his career, says, "Isn't it funny ..."

Aamir Khan’s brother Faissal Khan has opened up about not taking help from his rather famous sibling to get ahead in his career. With the release of his film Faactory approaching, Faissal was asked during an interview by a news agency if he approached Aamir to help restore his career, he said that he is happy to own his success and failures.

“No, I did not ask help to build my career from Aamir. I wanted to do things by myself because whatever it is, my success, my failure is mine. He is my brother, he wishes well for me but I had to go through a dark phase, that is part of my journey. That is my life,” Faissal told IANS during an interview.

The Faactory actor and director further added, “Isn’t it funny that when someone struggles to make something of his own and does not get as much success as other siblings, they are asked why don’t you ask for support and help? But if he takes support and achieves success, it is called nepotism? Yes, I had a hard life but now I really want to get back in acting and directing films. I need the opportunity to grow and I am emotionally and physically ready to make my path."

While Faissal has his own strained history with his family, he was once a part of the Bollywood star’s production company, Aamir Khan Production. They have also done the film Mela together as co-stars.
