When Saif Ali Khan was admitted to Lilavati Hospital, an unexpected name appeared on the medical admission form under the “brought by” section—Afsar. But who is Afsar? If you’re thinking he’s a relative, think again. He’s a close associate and collaborator of Saif Ali Khan, deeply involved in the actor’s professional ventures. Here’s what we’ve uncovered about him.
Afsar’s name featured on the hospital records as the person who brought Saif to Lilavati Hospital. However, in a report by India Today, Afsar clarified that he wasn’t the one who physically took Saif there. According to him, he received a call from the Pataudi family around 3:30 AM, requesting him to reach the hospital to handle the formalities. He arrived at Lilavati around 4 AM and completed the paperwork.
Interestingly, the time of Saif’s admission in the hospital records is noted as 4:11 AM, aligning with Afsar’s statement.
Afsar is not just a name on a medical report; he’s a trusted associate of the Pataudi family. He’s frequently spotted accompanying Kareena Kapoor Khan during her visits to the hospital, which suggests his close involvement in the family’s affairs.
Professionally, Afsar has been a key player in Saif Ali Khan’s brand deals and runs a celebrity management company that also manages Malaika Arora’s work. He is also actively involved in House of Pataudi, the lifestyle and fashion brand founded by Saif.
While Afsar’s presence in Saif’s life is undeniable, his role during this particular hospital visit is more administrative than anything else. His relationship with Saif is professional yet deeply trusted—an example of how modern celebrities often rely on a close-knit team to manage their personal and professional lives seamlessly.
In essence, Afsar may not be a relative, but his presence on the medical form and his involvement in Saif Ali Khan’s ventures speak volumes about the trust and camaraderie shared between the two.
