The century hero of Kannada cinema Shivarajakumar who had gone for a medical check up to Paris, is reported to be in the clear, after a small medical procedure was conducted on him. His health problem was discovered a month ago, when he got injured from a placard that fell on his head at the Karnataka Film Workers Association function. He was sent for an expert opinion to Dhirubhai Ambani hospital in Mumbai. After going through the X-Ray reports, the need for a small medical procedure was suggested.

That was why Shivarajakumar went to Paris for further treatment. Shivanna will be returning to Bengaluru on July 6th says the sources.  Shivarajakumar's younger brother, Raghavendra Raj Kumar, on his Facebook account says " hi frens shivanna is fine he had gone to Paris for a vacation n he also had a check up with a leading Doctor they told he is fine can continue all his work like before so cheeeeeers Shivanna u r superb brother with the blessings of ABHIMANI DEVARGALU'."
