Bollywood actor Saif Ali Khan fell victim to a shocking attack in the early hours of Thursday when an intruder broke into his high-rise apartment in Bandra, a posh locality in Mumbai, and stabbed him multiple times. The brutal assault, which left the 54-year-old actor with a knife embedded in his spine, has sparked serious concerns about the safety of celebrities in India’s financial and entertainment capital. In a similar incident, another celebrity’s safety was compromised recently. 

A similar incident at Shah Rukh Khan's house

Just two to three days ago, an unidentified man attempted to trespass into Shah Ruk Khan’s iconic Mannat bungalow. The intruder climbed the outer wall but was thwarted by the protective netting installed around the property, preventing his entry. 

While the attempt was unsuccessful, the intent behind this intrusion remains unclear. Mumbai police are working to determine whether this was a random act or part of a more sinister plan targeting the superstar. 

Connection between the two incidents

Authorities suspect that the person who attacked Saif Ali Khan might be the same individual who attempted to enter Shah Rukh Khan’s residence. Investigations are ongoing to establish any connection between the two incidents.

The 54-year-old actor, who sustained six stab wounds, including one to the neck, is now out of danger after undergoing emergency surgery at Lilavati Hospital. The attack occurred in the early hours of Thursday, and he remains hospitalised for further care.

CCTV footage from 2:33 a.m. captured the suspect descending the staircase on the sixth floor of the building. The young man, whose face is clearly visible in the video, was wearing a brown collared T-shirt and a red scarf. Saif Ali Khan resides on the 12th floor of the building.

In addition to Khan, a 56-year-old staff nurse, Eliyama Philip, who filed the police complaint, and a domestic help also suffered injuries from the blade during the incident, according to an official statement on Thursday.
