Kareena Kapoor Khan opened up recently about the knife attack on Saif Ali Khan and said that she is still struggling with "fear and anxiety" after the incident. The actor said that she doesn’t want to live with the fear for her children and put stress on them.
Speaking during a session at We The Women, Kareena said, “I am still kind of struggling with what it does to see someone there in your child's room. In Mumbai, you never really hear about such incidents. It is very common in the US. In Mumbai, we have never really heard about such incidents. We have still not come to terms 100 per cent. At least I haven't. I was very anxious for the first couple of months. It was very difficult to sleep and get back to the person with that kind of normalcy”.
She added, “I don't want to live in that fear for my children because that's also wrong to put that stress onto them. So, it's been a tough journey to manoeuvre from fear and anxiety to balancing the fact that I am a mother and I am also a wife. It was a combination of so much understanding that this is what I have to kind of deal with. I am just happy and thank God that we are safe”.
Saif was attacked at his house in Mumbai’s Bandra on January 16 by an intruder, who had entered his sons, Taimur and Jeh’s room. As he tried to tackle the intruder, Saif was attacked with a knife multiple times, causing serious injuries to his spine. He was later rushed to the hospital where he was treated and simultaneously released.
After the attack, Saif was seen in the action-thriller, Jewel Thief—The Heist Begins.
