The Michael Jackson biopic, released on April 23, received largely negative reviews, but Indian filmmaker Farah Khan has come out in support of the film, urging audiences to ignore critics and watch it in cinemas.
Farah Khan shared a photo of herself with Michael Jackson on Instagram, urging people to watch the film and expressed hope that Jaafar Jackson wins an Oscar next year for his performance.
The biopic, directed by Antoine Fuqua and written by John Logan, stars Jaafar Jackson as his late uncle and has performed well commercially, opening to around $30 million overseas and ₹5.50 crore net in India.
