Superstar Shah Rukh Khan, who is home after his right shoulder surgery, thanks all his fans for their support and prayer and informs them that he will need six weeks to recover.

Talking of his recovery, the actor said, "For minimum six weeks I have to be in a sling. It will take a bit of time to recover (but will be back again)".

He was talking to the reporters after being discharged from Lilavati Hospital Wednesday.

"Thank you everyone. I am better now. Thank you very much for being so kind and thinking so well for me, Inshaallah," said the 47-year-old.

Shah Rukh underwent surgery Monday. Reportedly, the surgery was due for some time as the actor wanted to wrap up shooting for "Chennai Express".

Sources closed to him said that he got pain in his shoulder while shooting, but he refused to use body doubles for "Chennai Express".

He wrapped up "Chennai Express" May 25.

Shah Rukh is married to Gauri Khan and they have two children, Aryan and daughter Suhana. For the surgery, Aryan flew down from London to be with his father.
