Saif was stabbed multiple times by the attacker, including his neck and spine. He was admitted to Lilavati Hospital, following which a surgery was done.

Doctors said Saif, who has been recovering following the surgery, has been shifted out of the ICU. He has been advised bed rest and will be discharged in two or three days.
