Overview
- Ram Charan, who underwent the operation on Sunday, has been reported to be recovering well after a successful procedure at Ganga Hospital in Coimbatore.
- The surgery was led by Dr. S. Rajasekaran with internationally known hand specialist Dr. Alejandro Badia joining the team because the wrist injury was complex.
- Doctors say the injury was a cartilage tear aggravated during extended wrestling sequences while filming Peddi and that Charan postponed surgery earlier to finish promotional commitments.
- Medical staff have advised at least eight weeks of rest followed by physiotherapy and staged rehabilitation, and producers say his next film, tentatively titled RC17, will wait for medical clearance before filming resumes.
- Family members including his father Chiranjeevi and wife Upasana Konidela stayed with him in Coimbatore, social media circulated hospital photos, and the operation is being reported in the context of multiple recent surgeries in the extended Mega family.
