According to an official statement issued by the party, Pawan underwent a nearly three-and-a-half-hour surgery on his right shoulder at a hospital in Mumbai. The surgery was recommended after doctors found extensive rotator cuff damage and muscle tears in both shoulders during a detailed medical evaluation.

The Jana Sena Party said the procedure was successful and assured supporters that the actor-politician is in stable condition. Doctors have advised him to take adequate rest and follow a rehabilitation programme before resuming his political and professional commitments.

Pawan had reportedly been dealing with persistent shoulder pain and discomfort for quite some time. During a recent medical assessment, specialists concluded that the injuries had worsened and required immediate surgical intervention. Although the surgery had been advised earlier, he chose to complete his scheduled public engagements before undergoing the procedure.

The update prompted an outpouring of wishes from fans and well-wishers across social media, with many praying for the actor's speedy recovery. As one of Telugu cinema's biggest stars and a prominent political leader, Pawan continues to enjoy a massive fan following, and news of his successful surgery quickly became a talking point online.

The actor has been balancing an active political career alongside his film commitments. While there has been no official announcement on when he will return to work, the focus is currently on his recovery, with doctors expected to closely monitor his progress over the coming weeks.

The successful procedure comes after months of recurring shoulder problems that reportedly affected both shoulders. Medical experts recommended surgery to repair the damaged rotator cuff and torn muscles, aiming to relieve the long-standing pain and restore mobility. With the operation now complete, Pawan is expected to spend the next few weeks recuperating before gradually returning to his demanding schedule.
