The actor was injured on the sets of 'Bajirao Mastani' in Rajasthan while shooting for an action sequence in February and had been sporting a sling on his right arm since then.
He kept fans updated with live tweets before the medical procedure.
The "Band Baaja Baaraat" actor shared an image of himself on a hospital bed with leads attached to his bare chest. He was live-tweeting from the operation theatre to stay connected with his well wishers.
"Live tweet from the operation theatre," Ranveer tweeted along with a selfie.
After sharing the photograph on micro-blogging website Twitter, the 29-year-old posted two more tweets -- "About to get knocked out!" and "he injected my neck ! Whoa!!".
When he had suffered the injury, he was optimistic about it back then as well.
He had tweeted then: "As for the injury, I'm fine. Mard ko Dard nahi hota....aur badi badi filmon mein aisi chhoti chhoti baatein hoti rehti hain ;) #sh*thappens."
Wishes for a speedy recovery started pouring in from Ranveer's celebrity friends soon after he tweeted his surgery update on Saturday.
