A woman came running shouting “roko, roko, roko<\/em> (stop, stop, stop)”, said the auto driver, Bhajan Singh Rana, who took Bollywood actor Saif Ali Khan to hospital early on Thursday.<\/p>\n

The actor, 54, was repeatedly stabbed in an apparent burglary at his home in Mumbai, his public relations team said.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“I was going via Linkin Road. The building where he (Saif Ali Khan) lives is named Satguru Niwas. A woman comes running shouting rickshaw, rickshaw, rickshaw, roko, roko, roko<\/em> (stop, stop, stop). She then asked to stop the auto near the building gate,” Mr Rana told NDTV. \u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

The auto driver did not know that the injured man he was taking to the hospital was Bollywood actor Saif Ali Khan.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“I did not know he was Saif Ali Khan. It was an emergency. Even I was nervous about who is this passenger that is getting into my auto. I was worried that I might get into trouble. And that is why I was nervous,” said Mr Rana.<\/p>\n

“He (Saif) was wearing a white shirt stained with blood. A child sat with him, a young man also sat with him,” said the auto driver, narrating the sequence of events.<\/p>\n

The driver said that upon asking whether he should drive to Holy Family or Lilavati Hospital, the actor said, “Take me to Lilavati”.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Upon reaching the hospital, a guard was called and the hospital staff assembled, said the auto driver, adding that it was then the passenger introduced himself:” I am Saif Ali Khan”.<\/p>\n

The auto driver realised then that the passenger in his auto was Bollywood actor Saif Ali Khan.<\/p>\n

The actor was “out of danger” following an emergency surgery, said doctors at the Lilavati Hospital where he was rushed following the incident that took place at his house.<\/p>\n

Asked if Kareena Kapoor, Saif’s wife, was present at the time the actor was rushed to the hospital, the auto driver said, “I did not notice.”\u00a0<\/p>\n

Mr Khan is the son of former Indian cricket captain Mansur Ali Khan Pataudi, and Bollywood actor Sharmila Tagore.<\/p>\n

His acting credits include the 2001 hit Dil Chahta Hai, and the popular Netflix crime series Sacred Games.
