Shravan Rathod, of music composer Nadeem Shravan duo fame, died of Covid-19 related complications on Thursday. The 66-year old was on ventilator since the past few days and his health worsened yesterday, after Shravan had a multiple organ failure. Now as per a E-Times report, Shravan's son and wife who are also battling COVID-19 illness cannot have his last glimpse. The mother son duo have been admitted in Seven Hills Hospital, Andheri East. Speaking about the same, Senior lyricist Sameer Anjaan said, "What can be worse than this if your nearest and dearest ones cannot be anywhere near you, neither in your last hours nor when you have left the world of living?"
Talking to Bombay Times, composer Nadeem Saifi, the other half of the popular duo, said, "My Shanu is no more. We have seen an entire life together. We saw our highs, we saw our lows. We've grown up with each other in many ways. We never lost touch and no physical distance could ever separate the two of us. I am in deep pain as I say this but my friend and my companion, my partner of so many years is no more. It has left such a vacuum. I spoke to his son who was inconsolable. We had been in touch on a regular basis for the last several days when Shravan complained of ill-health and had to be moved to a hospital. Nadeem-Shravan were among the most popular music composers in the 90s, giving chartbuster soundtracks in films like ‘Aashiqui’ (1990), ‘Saajan’ (1991), Shah Rukh Khan starrer ‘Pardes’ and ‘Raja Hindustani’, headlined by Aamir Khan. After their split in mid 2000s, the duo reunited to compose for David Dhawan’s ‘Do Knot Disturb’ in 2009.
