Director Mani Ratnam, who was hospitalised in Delhi, is doing fine and will return to Chennai on Thursday, his wife Suhasini Mani Ratnam told The Hindu from New Delhi.
Mr. Mani Ratnam was in Srinagar on Tuesday and was playing golf when he experienced some breathlessness.
Ms. Suhasini said her husband had gone to play golf directly from the airport and had played nine holes when he felt breathless.
Given his past medical history, he decided to go to a hospital there.
It was a government hospital and he was admitted to the ICU, but doctors soon cleared him.
It is believed that the breathlessness was probably because of the altitude, she said.
After he was cleared, he left for Delhi, and went to Apollo Hospital, Indraprastha, for a check-up.
Doctors monitored him overnight and found him to be fine.
