Aamir Khan's brother Faisal Khan is back home. He has moved back to his flat at Bella Vista in Pali Hill, in the vicinity of his star brother's house. This appears to be the final step in the reconciliation of the one-time estranged siblings.
Says a source, "Faisal is happy to return to his own pad. He has already moved his stuff back and has even planned to have a housewarming party. The cracks between the two, for now, appear to have healed. They are back to living as beforeu00a0- and being there for each other."
By himself
For the last four years, Faisal had been staying at rented places in Chembur and later at Bandra (E)u00a0- ever since Aamir and father Tahir Hussain were caught in a bitter legal battle over Faisal's custody while he was undergoing medical treatment. Though the court had granted custody of Faisal to the father, he had chosen to live by himself.
The source adds, "Though the two brothers had differences and said a lot of things about each other, they gradually did their own bit for a reconciliation. Faisal being back near Aamir is a sign that both have truly let bygones be bygones."
Getting there
As reported 'Bhai God, I'm back' (Hitlist, June 2) as a step towards rebuilding their relationship, Faisal had begun attending Aamir's production office to learn the various aspects of filmmaking.
Earlier this year, a reconciliation between the brothers was evident when Aamir was shooting for 3 Idiots. Faisal would drop in on the sets to catch up with his elder brother.
