AR Rahman suffered dehydration and underwent a few tests at a Chennai hospital on Sunday morning. The Oscar-winning music composer was doing fine now, assured his son AR Ameen. Rahman is admitted in Chennai's Apollo Hospital.
Rahman was reportedly taken to the hospital after experiencing discomfort following his return from London.
His spokesperson told NDTV that Rahman felt unwell and went for a check-up on Saturday night, where doctors confirmed that his condition was due to dehydration.
"He returned from London yesterday and felt unwell, so he went to the hospital for a check-up last night. However, according to the doctors, it was due to dehydration, as he has also been fasting for Ramzan," the spokesperson said.
