A happy news has come for all the Saif Ali Khan fans. The report has it that the actor will be discharged from the hospital by this evening. After being stabbed by a robber, Saif was quickly taken to the hospital in an auto-rickshaw. While earlier it was said that the rickshaw driver had denied any money to take the bleeding Saif to the hospital, a new update has it that an organization has awarded him Rs 11,000 for his commendable work.


Days after the unfortunate incident happened at Saif Ali Khan's Mumbai residence, News24 has reported that the driver of the auto-rickshaw, who took Saif to the hospital, has been rewarded with Rs 11,000 by an institution.

I have not had any conversation with them," Singh stated.
