Actor Saif Ali Khan appeared on the chat show ‘Two Much with Twinkle and Kajol’, where he recalled the horrifying knife incident that took place earlier this year, after an intruder broke into his home and attacked him.
Saif, who was joined by Akshay Kumar on the show, recounted the terrifying moment in detail. He revealed that he first saw the intruder standing over his younger son Jeh’s bed with a knife, prompting him to act instantly and tackle the man down.
The actor shared, “I barged into Jeh’s room, and in the dark, I saw this guy standing over his bed with a knife. I jumped on him and we started fighting. And then, he went mad.”
Saif added that the altercation left him with severe injuries on his back and neck, making his son worried. “He had these two knives, and he just started slashing all over me. Taimur looked at me upstairs, and he said, ‘Oh, my God! Are you going to die?’ And I said, ‘no, I don’t think so. But I’ve got a pain in the back. I’m not going to die, I’m fine,'” he recounted.
After the incident, Jeh called Saif his “hero”.
During the conversation, Saif also spoke about his early days of dating Kareena Kapoor on the sets of ‘Tashan’, which also starred Akshay Kumar. The actor shared that while shooting in Ladakh, he and Kareena would often go for walks, during which they realised their connection was refreshingly “old-school.”
Recalling their early romance, Saif said, “When I went to Ladakh, we used to go for these long walks, and she’d ask me a lot of questions, which were kind of a test meets interview. Like, what is your view on love? This kind of went on for a while. It was very old-fashioned.”
The third episode of ‘Two Much with Kajol and Twinkle’ will stream exclusively on Prime Video in over 240 countries and territories worldwide this Thursday, with new episodes dropping weekly.
