Sajid Khan's 'Sixth Sense' Saves Him at IPL Match

Music composer Sajid Khan experienced a harrowing moment during a recent Indian Premier League (IPL) match when a powerfully struck cricket ball came dangerously close to hitting him. The incident occurred while he was attending a Punjab Kings (PBKS) game.

Khan, who was seated and wearing a Punjab Kings jersey, described how the ball was hit with such force that it peeled off and headed directly towards him. He instinctively stood up to catch it but became momentarily stuck in his chair, throwing his body off balance. This unexpected movement, however, proved to be his saving grace.

He recounted that his "sixth sense" and a prompt decision to "just jump" allowed him to narrowly evade a severe impact. While he managed to avoid major injury, he sustained minor scratches and swelling on his forearm and leg. The ball ultimately struck a rod above his seat, demonstrating the immense force with which it was traveling.

Sajid Khan, part of the renowned Sajid-Wajid music duo, which composed music for films like Salman Khan's 'Pyar Kiya To Darna Kya' and the IPL 4 theme song, shared the video of his ordeal online. He reassured his fans that he is fine despite the scare and the minor injuries, acknowledging that videos of the incident were circulating.

His brother, Wajid Khan, passed away in 2020. Sajid's close call serves as a stark reminder of the unpredictable nature of live sporting events.
