We hope Saif Ali Khan’s health is better and we all are concerned for him, Shahid Kapoor on Friday said about his “Rangoon” co-star who was repeatedly stabbed by an intruder in his highrise apartment.
Khan, 54, received six stab injuries, including in his neck, in the attack around 2.30 am on Thursday. He was out of danger following an emergency surgery at the Lilavati Hospital where he was rushed, according to doctors treating him.
“We hope Saif’s health is better. We hope he is feeling better. We all are shocked with what happened with him in a personal space. It’s difficult to absorb (something like this) in a city like Mumbai. I’m sure the police are trying their best…” Kapoor told reporters at the trailer launch of his new movie “Deva”.
Such incidents normally don’t happen in Mumbai, added Kapoor.
“Mumbai is a very safe city. When a family member or ladies go out at 2 am, it’s still safe. It’s a shocking incident. We are hoping and praying he recovers soon. We are hoping and praying for him all the time,” Kapoor said.
Khan and Kapoor had shared the screen space in Vishal Bhardwaj’s 2017 period movie “Rangoon”, which also starred Kangana Ranaut.
