Saif Ali Khan getting stabbed in his own posh pad at the start of this year was not the headline we ever expected. But 2025 kicked off with a shocker that left fans, netizens, and literally the entire nation going, “Wait, what just happened?!” After a flood of theories, a whirlwind of drama, and enough social media conspiracies to fuel a season of Indian Crime Files, the police have finally dropped a update that’s raising even more eyebrows.
Update on Saif ali khan stabbing incident
Turns out, the main guy arrested for the crime, Shariful Islam, might not have left his mark where it matters. According to fresh details, forensic fingerprint reports have not linked him to Saif’s home. The dude’s prints didn’t match the ones found on the bathroom door, the bedroom sliding door, or even the cupboard.
The only place where his fingerprints did show up? The eighth floor of the building. Coincidence or clue? You decide.

The Mumbai Police clearly weren’t playing when they dropped a whopping 1000-page in the Metropolitan Magistrate Court. The report apparently has everything from facial recognition tests to forensic findings .
Despite the lack of fingerprint matches, there’s still some heat on Shariful. Why? Because the knife recovered from the crime scene and the one chilling near Saif’s spine matched the one linked to him. So while the prints are shaky, the weapon connection is solid.
One Crime, Too Many Questions: Is The Case Really Closed?
Now, here’s where it gets trickier than a murder mystery dinner party. The police are saying fingerprints aren’t always the golden ticket since multiple people touch surfaces in high-traffic areas like doors and handles. Basically, they’re not ruling Shariful out just yet, and they’re keeping him under the scanner.
Also, in case you missed it, the cops opposed his bail plea, which means they still believe he’s the one with the answers (and possibly, the knife).
Saif’s Recovery Was Quick, But This Case?
Thankfully, our Nawab is doing fine now. After spending some tense days in the hospital, Saif was discharged and is back to his royal routine. But this case? It’s anything but over. With a mismatch of evidence, theories popping like popcorn, and fans demanding clarity – it’s a real-life whodunit playing out in slow-mo.
From the big screen to real life, Saif’s journey this year has been a rollercoaster and this stabbing case is turning out to be the most unexpected twist of all. Whether Shariful is the villain or just a pawn in a bigger game remains to be seen. One thing’s for sure: the tamaasha is far from over.
What’s next for saif?
Saif Ali Khan is all set to star in the film Jewel Thief – The Heist alongside Jaideep Ahlawat, Nikita Dutta, and Kunal Kapoor. It will exclusively premiere on Netflix on April 25.
