Written by : TNM

Ulaganayagan Kamal Haasan, who fractured his leg nearly two weeks ago due to a fall from his office stairs, is still undergoing treatment in a private hospital in Chennai. Having already undergone a minor surgery for compound fracture, Haasan is said to be kept under observation and he will be required to stay in the hospital for a few more days.

The unfortunate incident, which happened when the 60-year star was on a schedule break on his upcoming trilingual comedy, Sabash Naidu, has resulted in the film’s release. According to a source, Haasan even after he’s discharged from hospital is expected to take complete rest for at least a month. The second schedule of the film, which was completely shot in Los Angeles recently, has been postponed to September from the last week of July, while film’s release has also been shifted to January 2017 from December later this year.

A spin-off based on the popular character Balram Naidu from Dasavatharam, Haasan’s Sabash Naidu also stars his daughter Shruti Haasan, Ramya Krishna, Brahmanandam and Saurabh Shukla. The film has music by maestro Ilayaraja.
