The story came to light when a missing report was filed by Aamir’s mother.Faisal insisted that he is alright and blamed Aamir for "forcibly" giving him medicine
though he has "no mental illness."Faisal has been receiving treatment for paranoid schizophrenia for a few years, and Aamir Khan recently told a TV channel that he had stopping taking medicine, which in turn had affected his behaviour.
Faisal however told Mumbai Mirror over the phone: "Nothing is wrong with me. He (Aamir) has been forcibly giving me medicine. I have my father [Tahir Hussain] on my side and I keep in touch with him."
Asked where he was, he replied: "Why should I tell you where I am? Who are you to ask me this question?"
Asked about this, Faisal said: “Yes, he (Aamir) did give me money and has been taking care of the family, but now I have stopped taking money from him. I am a poor person, but I am a graduate and have enough money to sustain myself. I would not mind earning my living doing a waiter’s job. I also intend to buy land and do farming.”
Asked if allegations that he had been threatening Aamir and his doctor over the phone were true, Faisal shot back, saying, “Why should I call anyone and abuse them? Do they have any proof that I have been calling and abusing them?”
Asked if Aamir had tried to get in touch with him, Faisal said: “Why should I talk to him? The law will now decide his fate. He has to go to jail.”
Faisal’s father Tahir Hussain, who has produced films like Caravan and Anamika, supports his younger son and claims he is “healthy and able to make his own decisions”.
Harish Shetty, Faisal’s doctor in Mumbai, said he needed to “resume his medication” at the earliest.
