The attacker first broke Aman's rear side window while he was still preparing for his workout in the car. The actor was quoted as saying, "As soon as I came out of the car without my shoes, he hit me with the axe. I asked him why you are attacking me. Before I could understand anything, he said something in Hindi: Jai Mata Di. I don't want to make it Hindu versus any kind of it."

Dhaliwal soon realized that the assailant was Indian, and he said his intention was to just stop him from doing nonsense. The actor stated, "even if he is a psychopath, he is an Indian.
