When Khan discussed balancing directorial duties with clothing brand
Earlier in an interview with GQ magazine, Khan discussed the challenges of balancing his directorial debut with his clothing brand. "They're both creatively stimulating in different ways," he said. "As the creative director of the brand, I shoot the ads, as well as oversee the photoshoots. I'm very involved creatively, but not as much when it comes to logistics." "On the other hand, as a director, I have to look into every detail, every shot, and every angle."
