Saif Ali Khan attack: Twinkle Khanna SLAMS ridiculous rumours of Kareena Kapoor Khan being intoxicated; says, “Biwis are clearly not considered…”

In her recent column, Twinkle Khanna addressed the unjust tendency to vilify wives during crises, highlighting how baseless rumours about Kareena Kapoor Khan emerged after the attack on her husband, Saif Ali Khan. Khanna’s article focuses on the phenomenon of ‘missus blaming’. Women, especially wives, are unfairly held accountable for the problems faced by men.

In her Times of India column, Khanna pointed out several striking examples of this blame culture. For instance, she noted that Anushka Sharma often receives criticism whenever Virat Kohli performs poorly in cricket. She also referenced the ridiculous rumours that surfaced about Kareena Kapoor Khan following the stabbing incident involving Saif Ali Khan.

In her column, Khanna expressed her feelings of vulnerability in light of recent events, mentioning that she now double-checks the window locks before bed. This sense of insecurity, she noted, has settled in many households since the attack.

Twinkle Khanna on ridiculous theories

Khanna was particularly vocal about the absurd theories circulating regarding Kareena’s absence during the attack, stating, “While Saif was in hospital, ridiculous rumours swirled that his wife hadn’t been at home or had been too intoxicated to help him during the assault.” She emphasized that the lack of evidence did not stop people from enjoying the blame game, illustrating a familiar pattern of shifting responsibility onto women.

To further her argument, Khanna shared historical examples of wives being unjustly blamed. She recalled how Yoko Ono was scapegoated during the Beatles’ breakup. She also pointed out that Victoria Beckham faced similar blame when her husband, David Beckham, struggled in football. Khanna stressed that this issue is not limited to high-profile couples; it permeates society.

‘Star Wife’ label

In a particularly humorous moment, Khanna recounted her frustration during an interview when asked about being a ‘star wife’. She quipped, “I am not sure that an entity like ‘star wife’ exists, unless, in the way that Manglik women marry trees, you end up marrying Sirius or worse, Halley’s Comet.”

Khanna also mentioned that she is often questioned about the political differences between her and her husband, Akshay Kumar. She highlighted the absurdity of people treating her husband as if he were a child.“It’s almost like people believe he isn’t my husband but a toddler who will listen to me when I say, ‘Beta ji, please walk on the left side of the road, and I will give you a Frooti.’”

What happened to Saif Ali Khan?

For those unfamiliar, Saif Ali Khan was attacked by an intruder at his Mumbai home on January 16, 2025. He suffered multiple injuries, including one near his spine and another on his neck. He was quickly rushed to Lilavati Hospital, where he underwent surgery and was discharged after five days.
