Shravan Rathod, of the popular music composer duo Nadeem-Shravan, passed away on April 22 in Mumbai. He was admitted to Raheja Hospital in Mahim in a ‘critical’ condition after testing positive for COVID-19 and was under observation. Shravan was on a ventilator for 48 hours, but he could not be saved. The news of Shravan’s death was confirmed by his musical partner of many years – composer Nadeem Saifi.
Condolences poured in after the news broke, with members of both music and film fraternity expressing their grief at the loss. Lyricist Sameer Anjaan was his best friend and has done 176 films with him. He told ETimes, “God knows what lies in store, I have been reduced to half. I spent most of my mornings and evening with Shravan.”
Actor Akshay Kumar, music maestro AR Rahman, singers Shreya Ghoshal and Armaan Malik also mourned the loss.
Very sad to know about the passing of music composer Shravan. Nadeem-Shravan created magic for many films in 90s and later, including Dhadkan that has remained legendary in my career. Deepest Condolences to his family. ????????— Akshay Kumar (@akshaykumar) April 23, 2021

After their split in mid 2000s, the duo reunited to compose for David Dhawan’s ‘Do Knot Disturb’ in 2009.
