Aamir Khan's family has issued a statement addressing the recent allegations made by his brother, Faisal Khan, in a recent interview. The family has expressed their distress over Faisal's claims, calling them "hurtful and misleading". The statement, signed by multiple family members, including Aamir Khan, Zeenat Tahir Husain, and others, seeks to clarify their position and reaffirm their solidarity as a family.

Faisal Khan's allegations include claims of being confined to Aamir's Mumbai home for over a year and being labeled mentally ill by the family. He also alleged that he was forcibly medicated and isolated, leading to severe side effects, including significant weight gain. Faisal stated that he felt trapped and that his family was against him, considering him a danger to society. He further claimed that Aamir controlled his finances and legal matters during this period, restricting his movements and access to his father.

The Khan family has denied these allegations, stating that all decisions regarding Faisal's well-being were made with medical advice and compassion. They clarified that their actions were collaborative and medically advised, emphasizing love and compassion as the driving forces behind their decisions. The family highlighted their intention to support Faisal's emotional and psychological health, expressing distress over his current portrayal of events.

The family's statement also addresses Faisal's remarks about his mother, Zeenat Tahir Husain, and sister, Nikhat Hegde, stating they are "distressed by Faisal's hurtful and misleading portrayal" of them. They emphasized that "this is not the first time he has misrepresented these events," feeling it necessary to clarify their intentions and reaffirm their unity.

In their statement, the Khan family has requested the media for empathy and to refrain from turning a private matter into "salacious, inflammatory, and hurtful gossip". They have refrained from publicly discussing the details of a painful and difficult period for their family, emphasizing that every choice regarding Faisal has been taken collectively, in consultation with multiple medical professionals, and based on love, compassion, and a desire to support his emotional and psychological well-being.

Faisal Khan, known for his role in the 2000 film 'Mela' alongside Aamir Khan, has a history of strained relations with his family. The family's statement marks a rare public clarification on the matter, underscoring their commitment to unity and privacy amidst the ongoing public interest in the allegations. The family hopes to put an end to the sensationalizing of their personal matters and requests that the media respect their privacy.
