His movie will alse o star Rajkumar Kanojia, Roaleey Ryan, Ribbhu Mehra and Sharad Singh. This movie directed by him for the first time will get an OTT platform release.

His debut movie Mela alongside Twinkle Khanna and his brother Aamir Khan is still remembered by audience. In an interview with a entertainment channel recently, he spoke and told that he did not get any help from Aamir. He also said that his brother has not even heard the script of his movie. He said,  “No, I didn’t get any help from Aamir, he has not even heard the script of the film that I am making. And I didn’t need any help as such because I’ve been through the process. I joined as a third assistant and climbed my way up to the first assistant, then I have acted in a couple of films, I have done TV, theatre. I have gone through the whole grind. With Aamir also, when I joined his production house, I was reading scripts. All the experience that I have gained from my initial assistant days till now, I’ve put it all into this film.”

Faisal Khan added, “I didn’t let anyone take the decisions, ultimately, as a director, you’re supposed to take your own decisions. Also, how does one form one’s own identity? I have had my own struggles. How does one break out of that? How does Faisal Khan ever break out of Aamir Khan’s shadow? Why doesn’t one write it as Faisal Khan’s brother Aamir? The whole system needs a big change.”
