The actor sustained a wrist cartilage tear.

Actor Ram Charan has arrived in Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu, to undergo wrist surgery following an injury sustained during filming.

The actor is scheduled to undergo the procedure at Ganga Hospital on July 28, 2026, under the care of a specialist.

He was accompanied on the journey by his father, Chiranjeevi, mother, Surekha, and wife, Upasana Konidela, from Hyderabad.

Several videos circulating on social media showed the family arriving together in Coimbatore ahead of the scheduled procedure.

Ram Charan was first seen at Hyderabad’s Begumpet Airport before departing for the surgical facility in Coimbatore.

According to reports, the injury occurred while he was filming intense wrestling sequences for his recently released film Peddi.

The actor sustained a wrist cartilage tear during the physically demanding shoot but chose to push through the pain.

Despite the injury, Ram Charan postponed the surgery to honour all of the film’s promotional commitments before seeking treatment.

With the promotional schedule now complete, he is finally ready to undergo the procedure and begin his path to recovery.

Fans across social media have flooded comment sections and timelines with heartfelt wishes for a successful surgery and speedy recovery.

The outpouring of love from the massive fanbase of the actor reflects the deep affection audiences hold for him nationally.

His family is expected to remain by his side throughout the procedure and the initial stages of his recovery in Coimbatore.

Following the surgery, Ram Charan is expected to take a few weeks off before receiving medical clearance.

He is not expected to resume any shooting until his doctors confirm that he has fully and safely recovered from the procedure.

His next project, tentatively titled RC17 and directed by acclaimed filmmaker Sukumar, is set to begin once he has recovered.

The filmmaker has reportedly already completed the script and is currently keeping himself occupied with pre-production work for the project.

Fans of both Ram Charan and Sukumar are eagerly anticipating the announcement of a formal shoot start date for RC17.

Interestingly, Ram Charan is the third member of the celebrated family to undergo surgery during the course of this year alone.

His father Chiranjeevi recently underwent shoulder surgery and his uncle Pawan Kalyan also had rotator cuff surgery in Mumbai earlier.

Ram Charan’s decision to complete his professional commitments before addressing the injury has been widely praised by fans.

Well-wishers from across the film industry and the broader public continue to send messages of support ahead of the surgery.
