Faryal hit back, accusing the husband of lying and coming up with a fabricated story. She snapped back that it was in fact Amir who had been cheating on her and she had been putting up with that.

Faryal had spoken out against her in-laws and domestic abuse she had been facing after her marriage. However, Amir’s family denied the allegations, blaming Faryal’s western lifestyle for the fallout between the couple and the family. The feud also led to Amir ‘firing’ his father as his manager.

Interestingly, Faryal had posted pictures of her with Amir, celebrating her birthday at Atlantis, The Palm in Dubai and having a good time at Cavalli Club's ice lounge just few days ago.
