It’s just that ki I want them to know that I’m very grateful to each and every one. I feel blessed ki har ek insaan ya jitne log hai mere saath khade rehte hai har jagah.Toh mujhe bohot khushi hoti hai and I think ki, itna pyaar laate kaha se ho sab log (All the people who love me, genuinely love me, those who see and understand my pain as their own, it’s just that I want them to know that I’m very grateful to each and every one of them. I feel blessed that every person, or all the people who stand by me everywhere. So, it brings me great joy, and I think, where do all these people bring so much love from)."

Fahmaan Khan's statement
In an interview with Bollywood Bubble, Fahmaan Khan revealed how his friendship with Sumbul got 'screwed' after she was supposed to shoot for a music video with him and singer Tabish. Sharing his side of story, he said, "I have chosen to be silent. Kisi ko neecha dikha ke main apne aap ko upar karne ke liye nahi maanta."
Fahmaan shared that before Sumbul entered the Bigg Boss 16 house, they were shooting together for a music video when a fan account posted a behind-the-scenes video on social media in which they were seen lying on each other’s shoulders. "While we were shooting Imlie, we were all the time together and people have seen that and it was nothing new. In the video, she was lying on my hand and we slept as we had been shooting the whole day and were tired. Someone took that video and put up and I reshared it. Her father didn’t like that." The actor claimed that even though he apologised to Sumbul’s father, the latter refused to forgive him.
