SRK recovering, likely to be discharged on Tuesday

Superstar 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 on Tuesday evening, doctors attending on him said.

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 on Monday, 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 on Monday, after which he was admitted to the hospital in the afternoon.

Gauri is with him in the hospital.
