Shahrukh
Khan
is
preparing
for
yet
another
surgery.
This
time
around,
it's
for
his
shoulder.
which
he
hurt
while
shooting
in
December
last
year.
The
actor
has
previously
been
operated
upon
for
his
back
and
his
knees.
Shahrukh
had
hurt
his
shoulder
during
an
action
scene
during
the
shoot
Dulha
Mil
Gaya
at
Mehboob
Studios.
He
was
undergoing
physiotherapy
sessions
at
Nanavati
hospital
before
leaving
for
Los
Angeles
for
the
shooting
of
My
Name
Is
Khan.
Doctors
had
advised
surgery
for
his
shoulder
even
before
he
left
the
country
but
he
didn't
want
to
delay
Karan
Johar's
schedule,
so
he
didn't
go
ahead
with
it.
The
injury
got
aggravated
during
the
shoot
but
he
completed
the
schedule
and
now
the
pain
is
worse,
and
he
cannot
push
the
surgery
ahead
anymore.
But
now
the
actor
is
facing
another
dilemma.
Red
Chillies'
Billu
Barber
is
releasing
in
February,
and
the
actor
always
keeps
aside
two
weeks
for
aggressive
promotion
of
his
films.
The
source
adds,
"Now
he
has
to
decide
whether
to
go
for
the
surgery
before
or
after
the
release.
Anyway
the
amount
of
pain
he
is
in,
won't
permit
him
to
promote
his
film,
the
way
he
wants
to."
SRK
has
had
his
previous
surgeries
done
in
London
but
this
time
he
is
not
sure
if
he
will
travel
out
of
the
country.
He
says,
"I
am
in
a
lot
of
pain.
I
may
do
the
surgery
in
India
I
haven't
decided
that
as
yet." He
also
confirms
that
he
has
delayed
his
surgery
by
nearly
a
month
to
complete
the
LA
schedule
of
My
Name
Is
Khan,
"I
wanted
to
finish
shooting
for
MNIK
and
also
wait
for
the
release
of
Billu
Barber
(February
13).
But
surgery
is
imminent,
so
I
may
have
to
go
in
for
the
operation
before
the
film
releases,
which
is
sad...
Though
I
do
wish
I
could
have
it
post-13th,
I
may
have
to
do
it
earlier.
The
doctors
feel
that
it
should
be
done
immediately,
so
I
am
not
sure."
Though
Shahrukh
has
been
left
almost
immobile
because
of
the
pain,
he
refuses
to
give
in
to
it,
"I
have
torn
my
tendons
and
it
hurts
only
when
I
laugh.
Insha
Allah,
all
will
be
well
post-surgery
after
a
couple
of
months
of
immobility.
Right
now,
it's
very
painful
to
shoot
or
even
move
around
but
I
have
a
few
promises
and
commitments
to
keep."
While
running
for
an
action
scene
in
Mudassar
Aziz's
Dulha
Mil
Gaya,
SRK
fell
hard
on
his
arm.
He
didn't
make
a
big
deal
of
it
then,
or
even
tell
producer
Viveck
Vaswani
about
his
pain.
He
sought
medical
attention
only
after
he
finished
shooting
for
the
day.
