AR Rahman Hospitalized in Chennai for Chest Pain and Dehydration

The Oscar-winning composer sought medical attention after returning from London, with doctors attributing his condition to dehydration and fasting during Ramzan.

AR Rahman was admitted to Apollo Hospital in Chennai after experiencing chest pain and discomfort late Saturday night.
Doctors have identified dehydration, worsened by fasting for Ramzan, as the primary cause of his condition.
The musician underwent several tests, including ECG and echocardiogram, and is reported to be stable and recovering well.
Rahman had recently returned from London before seeking medical care due to feeling unwell.
This follows a challenging period for Rahman, including his divorce announcement last year after 29 years of marriage to Saira Banu.
