Ahmad Ali Masoud Ansari is Farah Pahlavi’s cousin


Who suggested changing the imperial calendar? He had a lot of self-confidence and was a nationalist who was stabbed in Alborz High School during the time of Dr. Mossadegh. Even though he was a leftist, he offered to kneel down and kiss the king’s hand whenever he came to the king!! This proposal of his had caused my father great discomfort because he did not like this type of ceremony. The proposal to change the calendar to the Shahshah calendar was made by Reza Qutbi and Mr. Shojauddin Shafa, which led to the dissatisfaction of many people. Qutbi usually did not come to palace parties. At that time, I disagreed with his ways, and as far as I remember, he called me “Gashtapo” because of these objections. Payment of three million and five hundred thousand dollars for the departure of Farah’s comrades from the country After the victory of the revolution, did you have an encounter with Qutbi? Masoud Ansari: After the revolution, I saw him in Cairo after the death of the Shah. The king was very angry with him, and this made him never come to see the king. The departure of Reza Qutbi and Fereydoun Javadi from Homeland was made possible at the cost of three million and five hundred thousand dollars, which was paid by Farah Khanum. I remember that in the last months of the Shah’s life, we were sitting with the Shah in the Dome Palace in Cairo.
