As an English born person of Bangladeshi (South Asian) heritage. I don't understand why Faryal would choose to marry a person like Amir Khan. In South Asian culture, marriage suitability (from the family's point of view) is determined mostly by class, upbringing and money. This line of thinking is even more prevalent in Pakistani culture.
Khan might have a lot of money but he is severely lacking in the class department. He comes from a working class family and has a terrible record when it comes to indecency and womanising. These things are viewed with extreme contempt in traditional Asian culture.
So when a middle class, educated woman from a nice family like Faryal chooses to marry an inarticulate man with little education, a terrible track record on decency and a rather unsophisticated accent; one has to wonder what the motive is.
If it is indeed only for the money then don't be surprised if Faryal let's this one go, even if it is true.
