Last month, Sajid Khan, the filmmaker, suffered an injury while filming in Mumbai and had surgery the following day. He was recently seen at The Wheel of Fortune shoot site in a wheelchair, showing off his healing journey to fans. He also shared an update on his health.

On-set wheelchair appearance

Sajid rolled onto the The Wheel of Fortune set in a wheelchair—his debut appearance since the operation. Paps queried, "How are you, sir?" He quipped back, "Dikh raha hai teko kaisa hoon (You can see what I’m like)." Adding, "Ye koi puchne ka baat hai kaisa hoon. Accident ho gaya yar, ye tang me surgery hui hai, ye tang fracture ho gaya (This isn’t something to ask how I am. I had an accident, my leg underwent surgery, and it got fractured)."

Accident details and family update

According to a report by Hindustan Times, Sajid met with an accident on the sets of Ekta Kapoor’s set in Mumbai in late December 2025. He underwent a surgery for the same. After his surgery, his sister Farah Khan had updated fans on Instagram, saying, "The surgery is done, he is absolutely fine now."
