I will continue to be active on social media and will remain in your hearts. People’s love is medicine. I will meet you all in person soon". The actor was admitted to Sri Ramachandra Medical Centre for a follow-up surgery in view of mild infection of his right leg bone. The actor underwent surgery for the removal of the infective focus in the Tibial bone. Earlier, Kamal Haasan’s daughter, Shruti, and Akshara issued a statement on the duo informed that the operation on his leg was successful. They conveyed their gratitude to the team of doctors and staff who operated and fans for their support.

Kamal Haasan in a statement on January 18 informed that his fans that he will be undergoing surgery on his leg. The actor-politician said that it was a follow-up surgery that he had been advised after a surgery post-accident a few years ago. He shared that he had been keeping it on hold for his professional and personal commitments. Back in 2016, the megastar had suffered a serious leg injury with multiple fractures after the 18-feet fall at his Chennai office. The Indian 2 star stated that he was advised by doctors to undergo a follow-up surgery to one he had undergone for an accident some years ago and take rest till then. However, he went ahead with his professional and political responsibilities 'superseding' this medical advice.
