Mumbai, Jan 16 (NationPress) The iconic actress Mamta Kulkarni has expressed her worries following the recent stabbing of Saif Ali Khan.
Highlighting the urgent need to enhance our security measures, Mamta stated, "I felt immense sorrow upon hearing about Saif's plight. The security in our city raises significant concerns. Why do people disregard the lives of those who employ them? Are they receiving inadequate compensation? It is important that we treat our security personnel with compassion so they value the lives of their employers. This situation extends beyond Saif; similar incidents are occurring in areas like Gujarat, Mumbai, and Rajkot. Security guards often become inattentive, allowing intruders to invade properties. Therefore, we must bolster our security protocols. My thoughts are with Saif, and I pray for his swift recovery."
For those unfamiliar, Saif Ali Khan made his film debut alongside Mamta Kulkarni in Umesh Mehra's 1993 movie, Aashik Awara.
Mamta Kulkarni has recently returned to Mumbai after being away for approximately 25 years, having stepped back from the public eye following her involvement with drug lord Vicky Goswami.
In a related incident, Saif Ali Khan was attacked multiple times while attempting to thwart a burglary in the early hours of January 16, 2025. Reports indicate he was assaulted with a 2.5-inch knife by an intruder who entered his Bandra residence through the room of his youngest son, Jeh. He suffered six injuries but is reportedly stable following surgery.
Dr. Nitin Dange, who assisted in the surgery, stated, "Saif Ali Khan was admitted around 2:00 AM. He endured significant damage to his spinal cord, specifically in the thoracic region, due to the knife lodged in his spine. The procedure involved removing the knife and repairing a leak in the spinal fluid. Additionally, two other deep lacerations on his left hand and neck were addressed by the plastic surgery team. He is currently stable and recuperating well.”
