Saif Ali Khan was stabbed multiple times during an attack by an intruder at his Bandra West home. The actor had to be rushed to Lilavati Hospital, and was taken in auto-rickshaw. The driver’s name was Bhajan Singh Rana, who was earlier interviewed by several news portals.
Now, there are pictures and videos making rounds on social media, which shows Saif meeting Bhajan in the hospital. One of the pictures show, both the actor and driver sitting on the hospital bed, with Saif’s arm around Bhajan. In another photo, both posed for the camera. The reports have also suggested that Bhajan also met the family including Saif’s mother Sharmila Tagore.
ETimes approached the auto driver, wherein he revealed, “Unhone kaha tumne time pe pahuchaya badhiya hai (He told me, you made me reach the hospital on time and thanked me).” Upon being asked, if Saif rewarded him with a cash prize, Bhajan said, “Hum baat nahi kar sakte. Humari koi maang nahi hai. Woh joh de woh theek, na de toh theek. Unhone joh diya humne le liya [It is not my prerogative to talk about it. I just took whatever he gave me and I am happy with it as it was not really about any money].”
However, ETimes, citing a source, reported that the auto driver was given Rs. 50,000 as a token of appreciation.
