Bollywood star Shah Rukh Khan, who underwent a surgery to repair the tear in the main muscle of his left shoulder, is recovering well and likely to be discharged this evening, doctors attending on him said on Tuesday.
Shoulder specialist Dr Sanjay Desai, who performed the surgery on the 43-year-old actor-producer said, Shah Rukh had recovered well and had a normal diet. Khan was operated yesterday at south Mumbai's Breach Candy hospital.
"The arthroscopic method of surgery, which was performed on the star does not require opening of the entire joint. The surgery ensure less pain and minimal scar," the doctor said.
The actor had injured his shoulder on the sets of 'Dulha Mil Gaya' in November last. Shah Rukh was in London to promote his latest film 'Billu' during the weekend and returned to Mumbai yesterday after which he was admitted to the hospital in the afternoon. Gauri is with him in the hospital.
