Saif Ali Khan's team confirmed that he underwent surgery and is in stable condition. His wife, Kareena Kapoor Khan, and their children were unharmed in the incident.

Indian Bollywood actor Saif Ali Khan has been hospitalized for surgery following multiple stab wounds sustained in what authorities believe was a robbery attempt at his Mumbai residence, according to his public relations team. His wife, Kareena Kapoor Khan, assured the public that she and the couple’s two children were unharmed. A female employee was also injured in the attack and is receiving medical care, police reported.

The 54-year-old actor resides in the upscale Bandra neighborhood of Mumbai with his family. Authorities described the incident as likely a robbery attempt and stated that the perpetrator has been identified, with a search currently underway. Since the attack, there has been a significant police presence at Khan’s residence, and several news outlets have shown footage of officers conducting investigations.

Doctors reported that Khan is on the path to a full recovery following surgery. Dr. Nitin Dange, one of the surgeons, explained that Khan suffered a major injury to the thoracic spinal cord due to a knife lodged in his spine. The operation involved removing the knife and repairing a spinal fluid leak.

The incident has sent shockwaves through the film industry and political circles, prompting an outpouring of support and concern. Actor NT Rama Rao Jr. expressed his shock and sent prayers for Khan’s recovery, while Nationalist Congress Party spokesperson Clyde Crasto raised concerns about the broader implications for public safety, questioning how such an attack could occur in a high-security home.

Khan, a prominent figure in Bollywood, has appeared in approximately 70 films and television series throughout his career, some of which he also produced. He is the son of renowned cricketer Mansur Ali Khan Pataudi and celebrated actress Sharmila Tagore.
