Man Arrested Following Knife Attack on Bollywood Star Saif Ali Khan

Police in Mumbai have apprehended a suspect linked to the stabbing incident involving renowned actor Saif Ali Khan, who is currently recovering from surgery.


In a shocking incident in Mumbai, Bollywood actor Saif Ali Khan has been hospitalized following a violent knife attack. Police have detained a suspect believed to be connected to the attack, which took place during an alleged robbery at Khan's residence. The actor underwent surgery and is reported to be in stable condition.

On Thursday morning, Khan experienced a brutal confrontation at his home, located in the posh Bandra area. Initial reports suggest a theft might have been the motive. The police have gathered CCTV footage from the actor's apartment and are probing the circumstances surrounding the attack. Witness accounts, including a statement from a nurse at the scene, revealed that the assailant confronted Khan’s family demanding a large sum of money.

Eliyama Philip, a nurse who was present during the attack, described how she spotted the assailant armed with a wooden stick and a knife, warning them not to make any noise. A struggle ensued as Khan and his wife, actress Kareena Kapoor, intervened. Khan sustained multiple injuries, including a significant one to his neck. Fortunately, due to rapid medical assistance, doctors successfully removed a knife fragment lodged in his spine, averting potential severe damage.

Dr. Nitin Dange of Lilavati Hospital confirmed Khan's stability, stating he had begun to move around following surgery. Yet, he will need to rest and limit his activities for the coming week. Meanwhile, Mumbai police are continuing their investigation, looking to secure the weapon used in the attack and understand how the intruder entered the property undetected.

Khan, 54, is a celebrated actor and producer with a career spanning several decades, noted for his performances and contributions to Indian cinema.

As the investigation unfolds, many fans and industry members are relieved that Khan is recovering and are keen to see justice served.
