Operating Shah Rukh was no easy task: Dr. Sanjay Desai
Shah Rukh Khan is on the road to recovery after his shoulder surgery at Breach Candy Hospital, Mumbai, but that journey is going to take two months of being out of action at the least.
The 43-year-old actor injured himself at the end of last year on the sets of Dulha Mil Gaya but postponed the needed surgery as he didn’t want to disrupt the shooting for Karan Johar’s My Name Is Khan.
Now, after finally being operated on, shoulder specialist Dr. Sanjay Desai, who is treating Khan, says, “He cannot move his shoulder for at least two months. He has to follow a certain exercise regime but he cannot do weight training as it will put stress on his shoulder. After a certain age, your bones take time to heal.”
Commenting on the delay of the surgery, Dr. Desai says, “He was injured last year and the operation should have ideally taken place earlier but he was busy shooting and didn’t get the time. The operation itself doesn’t take much time but post-surgery , he has to rest. That is why we decided to go ahead with it now. Believe me, operating on Shah Rukh is no easy task.”
The star has been instructed to take utmost care post the operation. “Stars have very busy schedules and it is compulsory for them to look good but he has to rest for a minimum of two months. He must be careful of his shoulder as he has already had injuries to his spine,” says Dr. Desai.
Shah Rukh shifted from the hospital to his home soon after the surgery. Dr. Desai explains, “He wants to stay with his family but we are there to check up on him daily. When he was at the hospital, everyone from his fans to the media gathered to get a glimpse of him. The funny thing is, before Shah Rukh went in for surgery, even the hospital staff were eager to get a look at him and click pictures. This is what happens when you are a star. He is alright now so when he asked, we told him that it was okay if he wanted to be discharged.”
