CHENNAI, India – Oscar-winning composer A.R. Rahman was admitted to Apollo Hospital in Chennai early Sunday morning after experiencing chest discomfort. Medical reports confirm that he is currently under observation and is recovering well after undergoing an angioplasty.

Rahman, 58, returned from London on March 15, where he participated in an event aimed at inspiring aspiring musicians. Shortly after his arrival in Chennai, he began experiencing unexpected chest pain, prompting a visit to the hospital in the early hours of March 16.

According to a spokesperson, the hospital confirmed the necessity for an angioplasty procedure following his assessment. “He’s doing fine now,” the spokesperson said, reassuring fans and colleagues about his health. A specialized medical team is closely monitoring his recovery.

Fans and members of the music fraternity have expressed deep concern and are hopeful for his swift recovery, taking to social media to share messages of support. Rahman has a massive global fan base, known for his transformative influence on the Indian music landscape, spanning from Tamil cinema to international projects.

In a previous statement, the renowned composer reflected on a personal milestone, having recently announced his separation from his wife, Saira Banu, after 29 years of marriage. Despite challenging times, Rahman continues to work on various projects, including major releases due later this year.

His remarkable career includes two notable releases this year: the Tamil film “Kadhalikka Neramillai” and the historical drama “Chhaava.” As the world awaits updates on his health, fans remain optimistic for the return of the music maestro whose work has deeply impacted lives globally.
