When Saif Ali Khan asked for dessert in hospital immediately after angioplasty; celeb nutritionist shares, ‘He was very particular…’

Saif Ali Khan is known to be one of the most physically fit actors within the Bollywood industry. However, it seems he has a strong fondness for sweets. Recalling her time working with him, celebrity nutritionist Khyati Rupani – who previously worked at Mumbai’s Lilavati Hospital – revealed that even after undergoing an angioplasty in the hospital, Saif, famously known as the Race actor, requested dessert right away.

During a conversation with Ronak Kotecha, Khyati Rupani recalled the time when Saif Ali Khan underwent an angioplasty at Lilavati Hospital in Mumbai some years back. She recounted, “He kept insisting, ‘Why isn’t there any dessert?’ I explained, ‘You’ve just had a procedure similar to bypass surgery, sir. I can’t…'”.

To my utter delight, Khyati confided that she took matters into her own hands. She shared with us how she bypassed her usual routine in the kitchen and opted to surprise Saif with something different. Rather than offering him his regular sweet treats, she requested healthier options such as custard and jelly instead.

Back in early 2025, Saif Ali Khan found himself at Lilavati Hospital once more following an incident at his Bandra residence. On January 16th, the actor sustained multiple injuries during a confrontation with an uninvited guest. Subsequently, he was hurried to the hospital for immediate surgery.

In a recent chat with PTI, Soha Ali Khan, Saif’s sister, disclosed details about the incident and provided an update on his health. She expressed that everyone was shaken by it, but reassured us that he was okay, had fully recovered, and is back to work. Their primary worry was just ensuring his wellbeing, which they are grateful to report has been restored. Thankfully, he’s doing well now.

In terms of his professional endeavors, Saif Ali Khan is preparing for the premiere of Jewel Thief – The Heist Commences. This project features Jaideep Ahlawat, Kunal Kapoor, and Nikita Dutta as well. The movie is helmed by directors Kookie Gulati and Robbie Grewal. As a captivating heist drama, it marks Siddharth Anand’s first foray into streaming platforms. Anticipate its release on Netflix on April 25, 2025.

Additionally, Saif Ali Khan is set to rejoin the Race series for its upcoming film, Race 4. Here, he’ll engage in a tense showdown with Sidharth Malhotra in an action-packed thriller. As for the remaining cast members, they have yet to be disclosed.
