The operation was conducted under the supervision of shoulder specialist Dr Sanjay Desai using arthroscopic method. Under this surgical technique, a tube-like instrument is inserted into a joint to inspect, diagnose and repair tissues.

Dr Desai told reporters that the operation lasted for one and-a-half hours.

"All went well. He is out of anesthesia. The situation is under control and he is doing fine," Dr Desai said.

He said Shah Rukh will be discharged in a day or two. But, he will take another four to six weeks to return to work and four-six months to be completely normal, he said.

However, Shah Rukh, who owns Kolkata Knightriders, will be busy with the IPL second season which begins in April.

Khan was admitted in the hospital today around shortly after rushing back from London where he had gone to promote his latest film 'Billu'.

This is the actor's second surgery. He had undergone a surgery in London in 2003 for a back problem.
