Responding to a journalist's question about Khan's stabbing, the Jab We Met actor said, "All of us from the fraternity are extremely concerned. We hope that Saif's health gets better. We hope that he is feeling better. We are very shocked about what happened. It is a very difficult thing to absorb that something like this can take place in Mumbai. I am sure, the police are trying their best. Usually, things like this do not happen. Mumbai is an extremely safe place. We proudly say that even if your family member is outside at 2 or 3 am they are safe."
Meanwhile, Saif, who was today shifted out of ICU to a special ward, is recovering well. The actor had a deadly encounter with an intruder on Wednesday night. The doctors had removed a 2.5-inch knife from the actor's back after he was stabbed six times in the wee hours. The actor had to undergo surgery and is now out of danger, despite two deep wounds near his spine.
