Bollywood actor Saif Ali Khan is recovering after sustaining multiple stab wounds during an attempted robbery at his Bandra West residence in Mumbai in the early hours of January 16. The actor, who was attacked around 2:30 a.m., was rushed to Lilavati Hospital, where he underwent surgery.

Actress Kareena Kapoor Khan, Saif’s wife, addressed the situation through a statement released by her team, confirming the family’s safety.

““There was an attempted burglary in Saif Ali Khan and Kareena Kapoor Khan’s residence last night. Saif had an injury on his arm for which he is in the hospital, undergoing a procedure. The rest of the family is doing fine. We request media and fans to be patient and not speculate any further as the Police is already doing their due investigations. Thank you all for your concern.””Team Kareena Kapoor Khan

The couple’s children, 8-year-old Taimur and 4-year-old Jeh, were unharmed during the incident.

Dr. Jalil Parkar of Lilavati Hospital confirmed that Saif was stabbed six times, with two deep wounds, one dangerously close to his spine. A specialized team, led by neurosurgeon Dr. Nitin Dange and cosmetic surgeon Dr. Leena Jain, performed the surgery. “Saif is now recovering and under observation,” Dr. Parkar added.

Mumbai Police and the Crime Branch have launched an investigation to identify the intruder. While the motive behind the robbery remains unclear, initial reports suggest a violent confrontation led to Saif’s injuries.

Kareena Kapoor’s social media activity from the previous evening indicates she may not have been home at the time of the attack, as she was attending a dinner with sister Karisma Kapoor and friends Sonam Kapoor and Rhea Kapoor.
