When Farah was born, he was doing well. When I was born, he experienced his first flop! He probably thought that having a son meant he should aim for bigger films.

This led him to become an alcoholic, and eventually, my parents divorced.”Sajid Khan also participated in Bigg Boss 16, where he recounted the harrowing experience of witnessing his father's demise.
