Veteran Bollywood actress Zeenat Aman has been taking social media by storm with her posts. Having made a name for herself in the industry for decades, she is known for her bold personality and for sharing in detail about her life experiences. After opening up about her personal and professional struggles, she recently revealed that late filmmaker Feroz Khan has cut her pay on the sets of Qurbani for coming late during the shoot.

Now, reacting to the claim, the late actor’s son Fardeen Khan has reacted to the allegations with a hilarious response. Taking to his Instagram stories, the 49-year-old shared that the filmmaker never even spared his family, adding that his father would have loved her post. Quoted by the Free Press Journal, he added, “@thezeenataman aunty, if it's any consolation, family wasn't spared either. We just received the standard family discount of 25 percent (smiling emoji). Khan Saab would have loved your post. He would have laughed out loud.” ALSO READ: Zeenat Aman Recalls An Embarrassing Moment With Younger Son Zahaan During Their Trip To Mauritius; Actress Says, ‘I Was Horrified, But Zahaan Was Beaming’

A part of Zeenat’s caption, from her throwback post read, “I was quite a diligent worker, but on one occasion my youth got the better of me. Though we had an early call time the next day, I agreed to go out to a party. It was a fantastic night of dance and drink, and unsurprisingly I landed up one hour late to set. Feroz was glowering behind his camera, and before I could offer him my meagre excuse, he cut me down to size. “Begum, you’re late and you’re going to pay for the delay.” No argument, no scolding, but you can be sure that he docked my pay to pay the crew for that one hour delay!” ALSO READ: Zeenat Aman Opens Up About Her Eye Condition, Ptosis; Actress Says, ‘Despite The Gossip And The Questions, I Never Felt Diminished By It’
