AR Rahman on his health scare 

Speaking to India Today, Rahman, who fell ill during the holy month of Ramadan, said, "I was fasting and had even turned vegetarian. I got a gastric attack and was in the hospital. The next thing I got to know was that they had sent out a press note, and it was all there. It was, however, nice to get so many beautiful messages from people and realising that they do want me to live."
