The attacker reportedly Hid in Saif and Kareena’s Bandra Home before landing 6 stabs at Saif, Leaving Him Hospitalized
In a shocking incident that has left Bollywood, and the country stunned, actor Saif Ali Khan was attacked and hospitalized following a knife assault at his Bandra home in Mumbai. The attack occurred in the early hours of the morning, and what makes the incident even more puzzling is that CCTV footage from the premises shows no one entering the property in the two hours before the attack.
According to police sources, the attack happened around 2:30 AM, but the CCTV cameras did not record any intruder entering the building after midnight. This has led investigators to suspect that the attacker might have entered much earlier and waited inside the house to strike. The actor, 54, reportedly had a scuffle with the assailant before being stabbed six times, with one injury dangerously close to his spine. Saif Ali Khan is currently being operated on at Lilavati Hospital and is said to be in stable condition.
The Mumbai Police are now sifting through hours of CCTV footage and gathering evidence to identify the attacker, who fled the scene immediately after the scuffle. In an official statement, the police revealed, “An unidentified person intruded into the residence of actor Saif Ali Khan. The actor and the intruder had a scuffle. The actor is injured and is being treated. Investigation is ongoing.”
This high-profile attack has raised serious concerns about the safety of even the most prominent individuals in Mumbai.
This isn’t the first time Bandra, an area known for being home to Bollywood celebrities, has made headlines for security breaches. The Shiv Sena (UBT) MP Priyanka Chaturvedi pointed out that this attack adds to a troubling trend, citing the murder of politician Baba Siddique and the recent firing incident outside Salman Khan’s home.
Speaking out against the current state government, Chaturvedi said, “If celebrities living in the heart of Mumbai, in supposedly secure neighborhoods, aren’t safe, then who is?” She also extended her well wishes to Saif Ali Khan for a speedy recovery.
Amid the growing media frenzy, a statement from the actor’s team has urged fans and the media to remain patient. “It’s a police matter. We will keep you updated on the situation,” the statement read.
