In a rare and emotionally raw interview with journalist Barkha Dutt on Mojo Story, actress Kareena Kapoor Khan opened up about one of the most terrifying experiences of her life — the night an intruder broke into their Mumbai home and physically attacked her husband, Saif Ali Khan.
Kareena Kapoor Khan reveals she couldn’t sleep for months after Saif Ali Khan was attacked; says, “My kids saw blood, they have been so sheltered”
Kareena revealed how the harrowing incident deeply affected her, not just as a wife but as a mother, as both her children — Taimur (8) and Jeh (4) — witnessed the aftermath of the assault.
Recalling the traumatic night, Kareena shared, “I am still kind of struggling with what it does to see someone there in your child’s room. In Mumbai, you never really hear about such incidents. It is very common in the US. In Mumbai, we have never really heard about someone walking in and attacking your husband. We have still not come to terms 100 per cent. At least I haven’t. I was very anxious for the first couple of months. It was very difficult to sleep and get back to the person with that kind of normalcy.”
The actress also reflected on how her children, once so sheltered, were exposed to something no child should have to witness. She said, “With time, I realised that the memory fades more and more. It’s there in your heart. It is like death. When you lose someone, you never really get over it. That’s what I have always perceived – that you never really get over that but the memory fades day by day.”
Kareena also expressed hope that the traumatic incident will ultimately make her sons stronger and more resilient. “Yes, they have seen blood and everything but I am hoping that that experience will make them different kind of men. They have been so sheltered and then they have seen this, so some how I feel that this experience has brought them out of that sheltered life and a little more into reality that this can happen. Of course, they shouldn’t have seen this at 4 and 8 years old, but I have to look at something out of it.”
The incident has left a lasting impact on the Kapoor-Khan family. While Kareena has slowly begun the process of healing, her candidness about the trauma sheds light on the psychological toll fame, vulnerability, and violence can take — even in the most secure corners of celebrity life.
