Kunal Kemmu reveals first reaction to knife attack on Saif Ali Khan, says he received call at 6 am: ‘Should we send our daughter to school?’

Speaking to ANI, Kunal recalled that he was informed about the attack at 6 am, and he had to break it to his wife, actor Soha Ali Khan. He shared that they were readying their daughter Innaya Naumi Kemmu for school. “The first thing was, is Saif okay? And once we knew that he was out of danger, none of the chatter made any sense again because that’s the only thing that mattered,” said Kunal, who explained how he informed Soha about the same.

“It’s very weird how fear works. I had to break this to her. We were getting our daughter ready to go to school and you just had this information and nothing else. So, am I supposed to send my daughter to school right now or not? All of those things were kind of playing on my mind,” said Kunal, adding, “So we did send her to school, and then I said we need to go there, and that’s when slowly we started to find out what had kind of transpired.”

Not wanting to add any other layers to the incident, Kunal categorically said that Saif has already explained what happened. “Everything has been accounted for and answered when it comes to that,” said the actor.

Saif, who sustained stab wounds in various parts of his body, including his spine, underwent a couple of surgeries at the Lilavati Hospital in Mumbai, and returned home after a five-day stint at the hospital. In an interaction with The Times of India, Saif recalled that he and Kareena were asleep in their room when, around 2 a.m., a house help rushed in, informing them that an intruder had entered Jeh’s room and was demanding money. Saif described how the masked intruder was armed with two knives. “I saw this guy holding (what I thought were) two sticks over Jeh’s bed – it was actually a hexa blade,” Saif shared. He jumped to confront the attacker, and was stabbed in the ensuing scuffle.
