Saba Pataudi ask trolls to 'educate' themselves about questioning Saif Ali Khan's quick recovery

Saba Pataudi, Saif Ali Khan's sister, has explained to quell critics who have questioned the actor's 'quick' recovery following surgery. Saif, who was repeatedly stabbed by an assailant at his Bandra home on January 16, was transported to Lilavati Hospital for surgery. He was released from the hospital five days later and was seen walking and waving his hand as he returned home.

Many questioned his quick recovery from surgery, questioning how he could walk so fast.

Saba Pataudi has now uploaded a post where a doctor explains its rationale. She asked others to educate themselves and disregard questions about his healing process.

Saba Pataudi used her Instagram story to re-share a post from The Filmy Official, which said, "Educate yourselves: Doctor explains the reason as people call Saif's recovery 'quick'." She then asked viewers to read the caption of the post, in which a doctor disregarded concerns over Saif's recovery.

The caption of the post read, ¡°Cardiologist Dr Deepak Krishnamurthy dismissed doubts over #SaifAliKhan¡¯s 5-day recovery after surgeries due to multiple stab wounds. Sharing a video of his 78-year-old mother walking after spine surgery, Dr Deepak said, ¡°People who¡¯ve had cardiac bypass surgeries. climb stairs on 3rd/4th day¡­educate yourselves," he added."

Many questioned Saif Ali Khan's quick recovery

After Saif Ali Khan was released from the hospital, several political leaders questioned his speedy recovery. Maharashtra Minister Nitesh Rane questioned the attack on Saif Ali Khan, questioning if the star was indeed stabbed or if he was "acting". Sanjay Nirupam, the Shiv Sena leader, stated that Saif returned home "jumping and dancing" from the hospital. He wanted to know how serious the attack on him was.

However, other people came to his defence. Pooja Bhatt lambasted the "conspiracy theorists" and claimed that the same people who are questioning Saif praised him when he checked himself into the hospital on the night of the incident.

Saif Ali Khan suffered a six-hour operation after a 2.5-inch knife was inserted into his body. The actor had also had an injury near his spine and had to be transferred to the ICU after surgery.
