Actor Ranveer Singh who underwent a shoulder surgery at Hinduja Hospital on Saturday morning is expected to be discharged on Sunday, according to a source from the hospital.

The actor was injured on the sets of 'Bajirao Mastani' in Rajasthan while shooting for an action sequence in February and had been sporting a sling on his right arm since then.

He kept fans updated with live tweets before the medical procedure.

The "Band Baaja Baaraat" actor shared an image of himself on a hospital bed with leads attached to his bare chest. He was live-tweeting from the operation theatre to stay connected with his well wishers.
