The intruder broke into the flat owned by Saif Ali Khan and Kareena Kapoor through the emergency fire exit. Doctors at Mumbai's Lilavati Hospital have said that the actor was out of danger following an emergency surgery where he was rushed following the incident.

The intruder gained entry to Saif's home through the emergency fire exit, which was open. The burglar was likely unaware that it was the actors' home. The thief then reached the fire exit through the staircase at the back of the building.
According to senior police officials, the intruder was unaware of the owner of the house and his intention was burglary in a high-end building. However, after entering the building, the alleged attacker entered the maid's room first. The maid then started screaming after which Saif came to her room.
During the chaos, Saif Ali Khan tried to overpower the intruder, leading to a scuffle following which the intruder attacked the actor with a knife. The intruder, who fled after the attack, is yet to be caught.
Khan's domestic help, who raised alarm first, also sustained a minor injury to her hand during the scuffle. She later lodged a police complaint. The attacker has been booked under several sections of the BNS, including Section 311, 312, 331(4), 331(6) and 331(7).
