Saba reacts to people questioning Saif's recovery
On Tuesday, Saba Pataudi took to Instagram and shared a doctor's post addressing those questioning Saif's rapid recovery. She urged people to educate themselves and understand the recovery process. She re-shared a post on her Story by The Filmy Official, which read, “Educate yourselves: Doctor explains reason as people call Saif’s recovery ‘quick.’” She highlighted "Educate yourself" and wrote, “Click on the image to read the full caption.”
What doctor said on Saif's recovery
Earlier, Dr. Deepak Krishnamurthy had taken to Twitter to share a video of his mother walking after a spine injury. He wrote, “For people doubting if Saif Ali Khan really had a spine surgery (funnily even some doctors!). This is a video of my mother from 2022 at the age of 78, walking with a fractured foot in a cast and after spine surgery on the same evening. A younger, fit person can recover even faster. For doctors doubting Saif's recovery, all I want to say is, get better exposure.”
Doctors at the hospital revealed that one injury was close to Saif’s spine, and a 2.5-inch blade was recovered from the area. However, when Saif returned home from the hospital, he appeared fit and healthy. This led to criticism from some politicians and social media users, who questioned the authenticity of his injuries, suggesting that his recovery was "too fast."
