Amid concerns regarding Bollywood Actor Saif Ali Khan’s wellbeing, Dr Nitin Dange from Lilavati Hospital on Friday confirmed that the actor was doing “extremely well” and was safe. He said that Saif Ali Khan has been shifted out from the Intensive Care Unit (ICU).
However, his movements remain restricted. While speaking in a press conference, the doctors who operated on the actor said that he was out of danger and there was no issue of paralysis. Dr Niraj Uttamani said that he was the doctor who met Saif Ali Khan within the first hour of his injury. “He had blood all over. But he walked in like a lion with his young child. He is a real hero. He is doing well currently. His parameters have improved. He is being shifted from the ICU to a special room. We will keep visitors in check. We want him to rest,” he added.
Meanwhile, Dange said that they have advised him to take rest given the wounds on the back that can cause infection. Saif Ali Khan is fine and safe from any symptoms, he added.
“He is doing excellent. We made him walk. There was no problem or pain or any other symptoms. Looking at several parameters, including his injuries and wounds, he is safe to be shifted from the ICU. The only thing we have advised him is to take rest for some time, owing to the wounds, especially on his back that can cause an infection,” Dange said.
The doctor further said that the injury to actors’ spine has been repaired and thus, restrictions of movement and restriction on visitor’s movements are recommended for faster recovery.
