Analysis
So AR Rahman is an emotional thought provoking, sensitive, quiet but hard working person who has channelized his emotions in a very positive way via his music and has become very successful in it. This as he is an ascendant Pisces with Saturn in his Lagna House and this bodes well to for him to be a commercially successful artistic musician who will carry on with his craft for for his complete life.
Second house has Rahu. So this tells me that there must have been/is turmoil in his family life and also after marriage some amount of complicated life is there; that is his married life.
5th house has Jupiter retrograde and exalted. So on one hand this placement makes him extremely lucky and wealthy; gives him children who would be the source of his happiness but on the other hand he would either not have much time for the children or some amount of complications or clashes are possible with the children and some amount of worry is possible due to the children.
7th house has Mars enemy. This makes him a manglik and this means that marriage is always in the works kind of a situation for him; so this is not somebody who would have been very happy in his married life; it is only for the sake of society and the sake of his children that he would have continued with it. So by no way is it the perfect marriage in fact far from it and the risk of legal problems are always there.
8th house has Moon and Ketu. Now this is a defining house; makes him ultra emotional, sensitive, very shy by nature; also gives him mild Kaal Sarpa Dosha (MKSD). Exalted Jupiter, Mars coming in between his Rahu and Ketu (and Moon) mean that he has to be careful of his family life; so he would always worry about his children and be unhappy around about his marriage and I think the only reason that he has carried on in his married life is due to his worry for the children’s future. I think as soon as the children have grown up and settled; he has decided to break free from the marriage plus he has to be careful of his health.
10th house is excellent. Sun and Mercury. This is what made AR Rahman; apart from his lagna house. So he is very intelligent, sharp, courageous, extremely wealthy, very very polite and humble person; helping for friends and loved ones, lives in luxury and comfort, liked by a lot of people, popular and holds a respected position in the society.
Now his 11th house having Venus is also excellent. He would get married to a lady from a high profile family background.
His chart tells me that he would eventually marry somebody who is very pretty, wealthy, known and high profile. The time is right now because he is going through his 11th house Venus mahadasha till 2038 and hence Mr Rehman has decided to follow his heart and he definitely has a love interest because of who he has decided to end his marriage legally and hopefully he will remarry again once the legal formalities are over because his Venus Mahadasha started in 2018. I am sure there may be many high profile women vying for him and he has found the woman of his dreams.
Now at present till July 2025; it could be a complicated time for him family wise and after that once his present Venus-Mars antardasha finishes; (during which he has decided to end his marriage); I get a feel that after July 2025 the chances of him formalizing another relationship or marriage are very high but there will always be controversy regarding his personal life. Previously it was only limited to the four walls of their house but now it is public.
