Shahid's good wishes to Saif
"We hope Saif's health is better. We hope he is feeling better. We all are shocked with what happened with him in a personal space. It's difficult to absorb (something like this) in a city like Mumbai. I'm sure the police are trying their best..." Shahid Kapoor said at the trailer launch of his new movie Deva.
Kapoor expressed disbelief over the incident, stating, "Mumbai is a very safe city. When a family member or ladies go out at 2 am, it's still safe. It's a shocking incident. We are hoping and praying he recovers soon. We are hoping and praying for him all the time."

Khan and Kapoor had worked together in Vishal Bhardwaj's 2017 period film Rangoon, which also starred Kangana Ranaut.
During the event, a reporter asked Kapoor how he would handle attacks on celebrities if he were a real-life police officer, referencing his role as a cop in Deva. Kapoor responded, "What you are saying is a sad incident. We all are very concerned in the fraternity. You asked me indirectly. Had you asked me directly, I would respect it more."
Khan underwent emergency surgery at Lilavati Hospital after the attack at his Bandra residence. He is now being moved from the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) to a private room, according to the doctors. On Friday morning, Mumbai police detained a suspect in connection with the assault.
