She wrote, “What a shame that Mumbai sees another high profile attempt on life, the attack on Saif Ali Khan yet again raises questions on Mumbai Police & the Home Minister. This is after a series of incidents that show there is a deliberate attempt to undermine Mumbai by targeting big names: Baba Siddique ji’s family is still awaiting justice after his shocking murder, Salman Khan forced to live in a bullet proof house. Now it is Saif Ali Khan. All in Bandra. An area which has the highest concentration of celebrities, which is supposed to have adequate security.”
