Bollywood Star Saif Ali Khan Stabbed During Shocking Burglary Attempt at Mumbai Home

In a shocking incident, Bollywood actor Saif Ali Khan, 54, was brutally attacked by an intruder at his Bandra (West) residence in Mumbai during the early hours of Thursday, January 16, 2025. The horrifying break-in occurred around 2:30 a.m. when Khan confronted the intruder, leading to a violent scuffle that left the actor with six stab wounds, including a critical injury near his spine.

Khan was rushed to Lilavati Hospital by his family, where Dr. Niraj Uttamani, Chief Operating Officer, confirmed six sharp-incised injuries. Two of the wounds were severe—one dangerously close to his spine with a small foreign object lodged, and another on his left wrist that requires plastic surgery. By 9:00 a.m., Khan was undergoing surgery led by renowned neurosurgeon Dr. Nitin Dange. Doctors have stated that while the injuries are not life-threatening, the full extent will be known post-surgery.

Mumbai Police have launched a full-scale investigation. Deputy Commissioner of Police (Zone X) Dikshit Gedam reported that the assailant fled the scene after the altercation. Authorities are now analyzing CCTV footage and have formed multiple teams to track down the suspect.

This shocking attack has sparked major concerns over the safety of high-profile individuals in Mumbai. Congress spokesperson Clyde Crasto voiced fears over public safety, questioning how such a breach could occur despite tight security. Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Priyanka Chaturvedi also criticized the state government, highlighting the increasing threats faced by celebrities in the Bandra area.

In an official statement, Saif Ali Khan’s team confirmed the attempted burglary and ongoing surgery, urging fans and media to remain patient as the police investigation unfolds.
