**Mumbai, January 16, 2025** – Bollywood actor Saif Ali Khan is recovering after undergoing surgery for multiple stab wounds sustained during an attempted robbery at his Bandra West residence early Thursday morning. Police confirmed that an unidentified individual entered Khan’s home around 2:30 a.m., resulting in a confrontation where the actor received six stab wounds – two deep, two intermediate, and two minor injuries, one dangerously close to his spine.
Khan’s son, Ibrahim Ali Khan, rushed his father to Lilavati Hospital around 3:30 a.m., where he underwent surgery involving a neurosurgeon and plastic surgeon. A hospital spokesperson confirmed that Khan is now out of danger and recovering. His wife, Kareena Kapoor Khan, released a statement assuring fans that she and their children, Taimur and Jeh, are safe.
Mumbai police are investigating the incident and have collected fingerprints from the scene. Preliminary investigations suggest the attacker may have been inside the building prior to the incident. Police are questioning household staff and suspect the attacker may be known to one of the housekeepers. A statement released by Bandra Police indicated the intruder was found in the bedroom of Khan’s younger son, Jehangir, and that a house helper was also injured.
The attack has sparked concern over safety and security in Mumbai. Several prominent figures, including politicians and fellow actors such as Aam Aadmi Party leader Arvind Kejriwal and Jr. NTR, expressed their shock and wished Khan a speedy recovery. Concerns were also raised about the deteriorating law and order situation in Maharashtra, particularly in light of previous attacks on high-profile individuals.
