The police are now working diligently to piece together the events and capture the assailant, whose whereabouts were captured on CCTV cameras.

According to police sources, after the attack, the accused was first spotted in the Lucky Junction area of Bandra. The suspect, believed to be in his early 30s, is said to have boarded a local train and traveled to Dadar, a prominent area in central Mumbai. At approximately 9:04 AM, he entered a mobile phone shop called IKRA, near platform 1 of Dadar (West) railway station, where he purchased a phone cover. His movements were recorded on the shop’s CCTV, showing him walking outside the Suvidha showroom before heading toward Kabutarkhana.

The attack took place between 2:00 and 2:30 AM on Thursday when the accused allegedly broke into Saif Ali Khan’s 11th-floor apartment in Bandra. The intruder is said to have demanded Rs 1 crore from Khan, who refused. In the ensuing confrontation, the accused reportedly attacked Khan with a knife, stabbing him six times. The family’s nanny was also injured during the assault.

Despite the serious injuries, Khan was able to make it to a nearby autorickshaw, which rushed him to Lilavati Hospital. Doctors attending to the actor confirmed that he was stable and out of danger after undergoing surgery.
