Shah Rukh Khan's knee surgery postponed!

Actor Shah Rukh Khan has postponed his operation for a week as he wants to complete pending work for his upcoming superhero film.

"He's aware that the surgery would limit his physical activity. He has requested his physician Dr Ali Irani to postpone the surgery by a week as he wants to complete some shots for his film," says a source close to the star.

Shah Rukh was to undergo an operation in Mumbai tentatively on July 25; a team of doctors led by former Team India resident doctor Ali Irani was to conduct it. The star had previously cancelled his plans to go to the US for his knee surgery and reportedly opted to have it done at Mumbai's Breach Candy Hospital.

Shah Rukh has decided that he will only be meeting people after his surgery, and not engage in any activity that might put stress on his knee. The star has reportedly been asked not to move around for a week post the knee surgery.

"Shah Rukh's physiotherapy team will consist of three specialists which will be led by Andrew Leipus as chief physiotherapist. We are expecting him to recover in a month," says a doctor, who is also expected to be in the team of doctors to operate on the actor.

The primary reason for SRK opting to stay back in India is because his kids are schooling in Mumbai. It would've been difficult for his wife Gauri to manage him in the US and the kids in Mumbai.
