The entire B-Town was in for a shock on Thursday after actor Saif Ali Khan was stabbed inside his own house in Bandra, Mumbai, during a robbery bid. Kareena Kapoor Khan later issued an official statement stating that the family was still trying to process the incident, and several celebs, including Priyanka Chopra Jonas, Ranveer Singh, Arjun Kapoor and others, sent their prayers to the family.
On Thursday night, Bebo took to her Instagram and wrote, "It has been an incredibly challenging day for our family, and we are still trying to process the events that have unfolded. As we navigate this difficult time, I respectfully and humbly request that the media and paparazzi refrain from the relentless speculation and coverage."
"While we appreciate the concern and support, the constant scrutiny and attention are not only overwhelming but also pose a significant risk to our safety. I kindly request that you respect our boundaries and give us the space we need to heal and cope as a family," she added.
As soon as she shared the note, a number of celebs wished Saif a speedy recovery. Ranveer Singh was among the first ones to comment, "Love and prayers." Priyanka Chopra wrote, "Sending so much love", while Arjun Kapoor wrote, "It's only fair that this is read, heard and respectfully understood by all of us."
"Lots of love and strength to the family," Sonakshi Sinha commented, and Kareena's cousin Riddhima Kapoor Sahni wrote, "Love u my bebo".
In what seems to be a robbery bid, Saif Ali Khan was attacked around 2:30 am on Tuesday while he tried to protect his family from the intruder. As per the statement of one of the staff members of the household, the intruder entered the house from the couple's four-year-old son Jeh's bedroom and demanded a ransom of Rs 1 crore by holding him and his caretaker hostage.
When Saif intervened, the intruder attacked him leaving him with six wounds, and fled the scene. The Mumbai Police has now launched a massive manhunt to nab the culprit.
Meanwhile, Saif underwent a surgery at Lilavati Hospital on Thursday and he will be discharged by the weekend.
