Aishwarya to undergo surgery for wrist injury

According to a recent report by HT City, the actor will undergo surgery for the injury soon. A source said, “Aishwarya broke her wrist over the weekend and thus had to get a cast on. However, she was adamant that she wants to keep her Cannes tradition going. Thus, even after the injury, she completed her professional commitments and made it to Cannes.”

The source added that the actor went to France only after discussions with specialists and her doctors and will require surgery on her hand soon. “Her surgery is scheduled for later next week after she returns from Cannes,” the source added.
