Glad to hear the surgery went well. As someone who follows Indian cinema from abroad, it's impressive to see the massive fan following Jr NTR has. Here's hoping for a quick and full recovery. The 2-3 month timeline seems reasonable for a full comeback.

Good to see the transparency from KIMS Hospitals. Health updates like this are crucial for fans who worry about their favourite stars. I just hope the production houses give him enough time to heal completely instead of rushing him back. Health first, movies later!
