'Returned Home Jumping And Dancing...': Shiv Sena Leader Questions Saif Ali Khan's 'Quick' Recovery
Shiv Sena leader Sanjay Nirupam said that the way Saif Ali Khan walked out of the hospital, it seemed as if nothing had "happened four days ago."
Shiv Sena leader Sanjay Nirupam on Wednesday took a jibe at Bollywood Actor Saif Ali Khan, who was recently discharged from a Mumbai hospital after suffering stab injuries from an intruder.
The Shiv Sena remarked at Khan's recovery saying "the medical sector has progressed so much that Saif Ali Khan comes to his home jumping and dancing."
The 54-year-old actor returned to his Bandra home on Tuesday, five days after an intruder stabbed him inside his apartment with a knife in the neck and spine. Khan had underwent a neurosurgery to treat a spinal injury and a plastic surgery to repair wounds on his neck and hands at Lilavati Hospital after he was stabbed by an intruder in the early hours of Thursday last week in his Bandra apartment.

"The citizens of Mumbai and I have some innocent questions. I have raised those questions. The doctors said that a 2.5-inch knife in his spine and he underwent an operation for six hours. His treatment was so well or I can say the medical sector has progressed so much that Saif Ali Khan comes to his home jumping and dancing (after the attack)," Sanjay Nirupam said.
The Shiv Sena leader questioned if the recovery was so fast because Saif Ali Khan was so fit or there were any other reasons for it. He also questioned the nature of attack and said that the family should come forward and share the details of the attack.
"It should be revealed how deadly the attack was and how badly he was injured. The family should come forward and disclose this because, after this incident, such an atmosphere was created in Mumbai that the law and order of Mumbai has collapsed, the Home Ministry has failed, the Maharashtra government has been ruined, and every citizen in Mumbai is unsafe," he added.
The Shiv Sena leader said that the way Saif Ali Khan walked out of the hospital, it seemed as if nothing had "happened four days ago."
"The way Saif came out (of the hospital), it seems as if nothing happened 4 days ago... I want to ask the doctors, can a person whose operation lasted for 6 hours come out in such good shape within 4 days?" the Shiv Sena leader remarked.
On Tuesday, Khan was seen wearing a white shirt and a pair of blue jeans, waved to waiting cameras after he was discharged from the hospital. The Mumbai police have arrested the intruder who allegedly stabbed the Bollywood actor.
The accused, identified as Shariful Islam Shehzad, a Bangladeshi national, is at present in police custody. The 30-year-old accused, arrested from adjoining Thane city on Sunday, has told the police he stabbed the actor in his back multiple times to free himself from his tight grip.
