Faraaz Khan’s brother Fahmaan had earlier requested financial assistance amounting to Rs 25 lakh on a fundraising platform. “The doctors have said that there is a chance that Faraaz can get better and go back to his normal life. But this will only be possible if he receives the necessary treatment in the ICU and hospitalization and medical care after that. This shall only be possible with your help and support,” he shared.
