• In an Aug. 16 public notice, Faissal said he had severed all familial and estate ties and would not reside in Aamir Khan’s home or accept financial support.
• He alleges he was forcibly medicated and kept under home confinement between 2005 and 2007, with relatives presenting him as schizophrenic.
• He further claims Aamir had an out-of-wedlock child with British journalist Jessica Hines, a long-rumoured story tied to a 2005 Stardust interview that remains unverified and has been denied by Aamir in past reports.
• Following a Mumbai press conference on Aug. 18, he said he will file a writ petition within a month and will not pursue defamation or damages, while alleging Aamir involved police and a doctor during his confinement.
• A unified family statement called his portrayal hurtful and misleading and said choices about him involved medical professionals, while he says a 2008 court ruling rejected the family’s claims.
