The actor who injured himself while shooting an intense action scene, will undergo surgery today
Shah Rukh Khan, who was scheduled to treat his shoulder injury in London, will check into a suburban hospital today for a much-needed surgery. The actor had injured himself while shooting for some intense action scenes for his upcoming film Chennai Express.
Despite the seriousness of the injury and suggestions from his family and doctors to have it attended to at the earliest, SRK had kept stalling the procedure till the shoot wrapped up.
A source close to the star told TOI, "Shah Rukh is getting admitted today and he will be accompanied by his family members and a handful of friends. His shoulder pain had been worsening but he waited till he was free of all his commitments."
How serious is the injury? The source said: "He may appear on television as someone who is always on his feet - dancing and entertaining everyone. But the truth is, every morning he wakes up with an excruciating pain and is unable to move his shoulders till a massage loosens up the muscles. Despite the debilitating pain, he shot an intense action scene in Hyderabad for the film."
Conscious of the money and the time riding on him, over the weekend, SRK completed a photo shoot and made an appearance at the IPL finale as well. "For Chennai Express too, only after director Rohit Shetty assured him that the film is a wrap, did he call his doctor."
TOI has learnt that the surgery will be performed by Dr Sanjay Desai. SRK has already requested him and his team of doctors to allow him to go home and rest and not be confined to the hospital bed. "He hates hospitals and wants to go home as soon as possible," added the source.
Here's wishing the actor a speedy recovery.
SRK's history of injuries
On the sets of Darr, SRK fractured three of his ribs while performing a stunt with Anupam Kher. Kher accidentally lifted his leg, hurting SRK's chest in the process.
In 1993, the actor hurt his right toe forcing him to be in bed for several weeks. The same injury troubled him again in 2010 when he was filming My Name is Khan.
In 1994-95, while shooting a running sequence in Koyla, SRK hurt his left knee. He continued to shoot but wrapped a dupatta around the wound. While shooting for Shakti in 2006, SRK suffered a neck injury while performing a stunt. He was operated in the UK for the same by a renowned surgeon.
In 2008, SRK suffered a major injury on his right shoulder. He ignored the pain, but as it worsened in 2010, he had to undergo a minimal invasive surgery.
In 2010, while doing a cameo in Mudassar Aziz's Dulha Mil Gaya, SRK damaged his shoulder which required him to go through a major surgery. In late 2011, SRK was holidaying in Dubai with his family, when he "overdid the fights and hurt his ribs." The actor had no choice but to stay indoors and play videogames.
