Actor Saif Ali Khan has purchased a new luxury property at The St. Regis Marsa Arabia Island, The Pearl, Doha—just three months after surviving a violent knife attack at his Mumbai home.
Speaking at an event hosted by Alfardan Group, Saif shared that the decision to invest in the Qatar property was driven by safety, comfort, and accessibility. “It’s very safe and it feels very good to be there,” he said, adding that the location struck a balance between luxury and privacy. “It felt like home away from home,” Saif explained.
The actor recounted staying at the property during a shoot and being impressed by its curated menus, relaxed pace of life, and stunning views. He said he looks forward to bringing his wife Kareena Kapoor Khan and sons Taimur and Jehangir to the island retreat.
This purchase follows a traumatic incident earlier this year. On January 16, Saif was attacked by an intruder inside his Bandra apartment during an attempted robbery. He sustained serious injuries, including damage to his thoracic spine, and spent five days recovering at Lilavati Hospital.
Despite the ordeal, Saif is back in the spotlight. He will next appear in Jewel Thief: The Heist Begins, a Netflix thriller streaming from April 25. Directed by Kookie Gulati and Robbie Grewal, the film stars Jaideep Ahlawat, Kunal Kapoor, and Nikita Dutta alongside Saif, who plays a smooth-talking criminal chasing a priceless diamond.
The actor continues to maintain multiple residences, including his Bandra apartment, the ancestral Pataudi Palace, and homes in London and Gstaad.
