Saif Ali Khan’s HUGE Neck Scar Shocks Fans Amid Public Stunt Claims: “He Could’ve Easily Died…”

Saif Ali Khan’s latest pictures with a visible neck scar have fueled online debates. Is it real or staged? Read on to find out what netizens have to say.

Saif Ali Khan’s latest public appearance at the ‘Next On Netflix 2025’ event has drawn significant attention – not just for his upcoming film titled ‘Jewel Thief: The Heist Begins’ but also for the massive visible scar on his neck. The actor, who was reportedly attacked at his Bandra residence last month, underwent a six-hour surgery and was discharged within 48 hours. His quick recovery and return to work have fueled online discussions with some questioning the authenticity of the incident, while others defended the actor.

At the Netflix event, Saif Ali Khan’s presence was met with praise but what caught everyone’s attention was the huge scar on his neck, visible beneath a bandage. Soon after, close-up images of the scar started circulating on Reddit and other social media platforms. One user shared zoomed-in pictures with the caption, “Doesn’t look like a ‘marketing stunt’ to me.” The post quickly gained traction with mixed reactions flooding the comment section.

One Redditor expressed concern, writing, “Such a dangerous location. Could have easily died.” Another user, acknowledging Saif’s resilience, said, “Hmm, I just said somewhere he’s glowing, but I want to take it back. He’s a tough guy for sure. After all this, actually coming down for movie promotion. Hats off!” Meanwhile, a fan defended him, stating, “I used to get so angry and disheartened, reading all those horrible posts and comments about him and his family on Reddit. Humanity just falls to the lowest of lows on Reddit. I just hope he and his family never have to face this situation again.”

However, skepticism still lingers. One user questioned the injury’s authenticity, saying, “NO, it doesn’t AT ALL look like a marketing stunt. Sorry for the caps on!” In contrast, another asked, “Genuine question: I don’t see any stitches but a healing wound. Then what are those paper bandages for? Like, they’re not even covering the whole wound, so they’re not there to protect it from the environment.”

Despite the speculation, Saif Ali Khan remained composed at the event, where he promoted ‘Jewel Thief: The Heist Begins.’ The heist drama, starring Jaideep Ahlawat, Kunal Kapoor, and Nikita Dutta, marks his reunion with director Siddharth Anand after 17 years. Speaking about the film, he shared, “It feels very nice to be standing here in front of you. And it feels very nice to be here. I’m very excited about this movie. Siddharth and I have been talking about this film for a long time, and I’ve always wanted to do a heist film. I couldn’t have asked for a better co-star.”

Regardless, Saif Ali Khan’s latest appearance has undeniably kept the conversation going.
