Shakeel Ladakhi punched Iqbal Sharma, not Saif Ali Khan

So far the news has been circulating that Saif Ali Khan punched Iqbal Mir Sharma at the hotel brawl that took place at Wasabi restaurant in Taj hotel on Tuesday evening. But Sharma has now revealed that it was Amrita Arora's husband Shakeel Ladakhi, who hit on his nose and let it bleeding at the incident.

In an interview to an English daily, South Africa-based NRIs Iqbal Sharma, an executive chairman of ISSAR, and his father-in-law Dr Raman Patel claimed that they were manhandled by Saif Ali Khan and his friends during dinner at Hotel Taj on Tuesday night when they asked him to keep it down.

Talking about the nightmarish incident, Iqbal Sharma adds that they complained to the hotel management three times about the noise being raised at the adjacent table. But they decided to shift to the ground floor when the management did not take an action against them. When they were moving away, Saif Ali Khan allegedly walked up to them and began abusing them.

Saif Ali Khan and his friends allegedly beat Raman Patel when he tried to intervene and save his son-in-law. Patel, who recently went through a bypass surgery for his lung problem, says that while they were getting out of the hotel some time later, one of Khan's aides, Shakeel Ladakhi ran down and punched him and left him bleeding.
