Silambarasan, who recently suffered injuries while shooting for ‘Vaanam’, is now ready to undergo a surgery. But nothing to worry about it, as it is to remove foot corns that the actor has developed.

“Doctors have advised STR to remove foot corns with an operation at the earliest. Though the procedure will be over in hours, they have asked him to be on rest for a couple of weeks,” sources say.

This, it is said, will have an impact on the release of ‘Vaanam’, which is scheduled for the Valentine’s Day weekend. “Attempts will however be made to release the film as soon as possible,” they add.

Saying that STR was suffering from foot corns for quite some time now, sources said he however managed to take part in shootings and other functions. “He is now going under the scalpel as per doctors’ recommendations.”
