Andhra Pradesh Deputy Chief Minister Pawan Kalyan is set to travel to Kerala on August 21 for a 20-day treatment and recovery programme. According to reports, the Jana Sena chief will stay at a nature-cure facility under medical supervision, with the programme designed to help him recover and rejuvenate after a demanding period of political and public commitments. The development comes after Pawan recently underwent shoulder surgery for serious rotator-cuff injuries.
Recovery After July Shoulder Surgery
Pawan underwent right-shoulder surgery in July at Mumbai’s Kokilaben Hospital after doctors diagnosed severe rotator-cuff damage. Following the procedure, he was discharged after successful surgery and advised complete rest, physiotherapy and regular medical supervision as part of his recovery protocol. According to Deccan Chronicle, he requires six to seven months of rehabilitation and is scheduled for a second shoulder operation later this year. His recent health has also drawn attention after he reportedly suffered a high fever earlier this month and was advised rest by doctors. The upcoming 20-day Kerala stay is expected to give him an extended period away from his hectic schedule for treatment and rehabilitation.
Kerala Treatment Programme
Pawan is expected to remain in Kerala for around 20 days before returning to Andhra Pradesh to resume his duties. Kerala has a well-established ecosystem of Ayurveda and naturopathy centres offering structured residential wellness and rehabilitation programmes, making it a preferred destination for such treatments across India. For Pawan, who balances his responsibilities as Deputy Chief Minister with his recovery needs, the break comes at an important time. The focus during the next few weeks is expected to be firmly on his health and complete recovery before he resumes his regular political schedule and official duties.
