According to the reports, at about 2:15 am a burglar allegedly got into the actor’s house and attacked their house help. Saif Ali Khan’s sleep was disturbed due to the commotion. When he went inside the room, he saw the culprit arguing with their house help. Saif Ali Khan decided to fight the attacker to save the house help.
