Saif Ali Khan was discharged from the hospital last evening following surgery after being attacked by an intruder with the intention of alleged robbery. Yesterday, after being discharged, Saif was snapped outside his Bandra house in the city. While some were happy to see Saif walking and smiling, many questioned how he could recover from a spinal injury so soon. Disappointed by this inhuman debate, a well-wisher has come out in support of Saif.
A Bengaluru-based cardiologist, Dr Deepak Krishnamurthy, stepped in to give his perspective and defend the actor after his remarkable recovery. “For people doubting if Saif Ali Khan really had spine surgery (funnily, even some doctors!), let me remind you that recovery timelines can surprise you,” wrote Krishnamurthy on X.
