Maestro Ilayaraja Hospitalized

Maestro Ilayaraja was admitted to a private hospital in Chennai on Saturday after he complained of slight pain in the abdomen. "He was rushed to Apollo hospitals. It looks like some gastric problem and tests are being conducted. He will be discharged soon," a source close to the musician revealed.
However, sources at the hospital said he is stable and there is nothing for fans to panic. Ilayaraja, 72, has composed over 5,000 songs in his career spanning over three decades across multiple languages.
