Bollywood superstar Saif Ali Khan has been hospitalised early on Thursday morning after getting stabbed six times by an intruder in his Mumbai home.
The actor, husband to Indian A-lister Kareena Kapoor, is going through surgery at Mumbai's Lilavati Hospital to treat the six stab wounds he received during what Indian media has described as a robbery attempt.
Mumbai police have confirmed to the media that the intruder entered Saif's residence around 2:30 am where he got into a confrontation with the actor. Saif was taken to hospital around 3:30 am.
Doctors have assessed that two of the stab wounds are deep, with one near the spine. A neurosurgeon and a cosmetic surgeon are among the team of doctors operating on the Bollywood star.
Earlier , Saif Ali Khan son, Ibrahim Ali Khan, stepped up in a life-or-death situation to get his father the help he urgently needed.
As per reports, Khan suffered multiple stab wounds in the attack and bled heavily. In a moment of panic, Ibrahim realised that there was no car available to transport his injured father to the hospital. Showing a very smart presence of mind, he immediately hailed an auto rickshaw and got his father to Lilavati Hospital, just two kilometres from their Bandra house.
Saif Ali Khan’s team issued a statement regarding his health, confirming that he is stable.
“Saif Ali Khan has come out of surgery and is in recovery. We are monitoring his progress closely. We thank Dr. Niraj Uttamani, Dr. Nitin Dange, Dr. Leena Jain, and the hospital staff for their excellent care. We also appreciate the support from his fans and well-wishers during this challenging time,” the statement said.
