Udit Narayan, who had worked with Shravan Rathod on many projects, said that the late music composer called him from the Kumbh Mela. The musician had visited the Kumbh Mela with his wife recently.

Veteran music composer Shravan Rathod of Nadeem-Shravan duo died of Covid-19 related complications on April 22. The entire industry has been in shock hearing the composer's untimely death. He had visited the Kumbh Mela in Haridwar before testing positive for coronavirus. Udit Narayan, who collaborated with Nadeem-Shravan on several projects, revealed that the late composer called him from the Kumbh. Talking to The Times of India, Udit Narayan said that Shravan Rathod went to the Kumbh Mela with his wife recently. He said, "Shravan bhai had gone to the Kumbh Mela recently and had called me from there saying, ‘I have come to the Kumbh Mela for the holy bath.’ I told him that he should’ve told me about this earlier and that I could have also gone with him. But after he got off the phone, I thought to myself that during the pandemic, why did he go there? He already had health issues, yet he went there. He did not listen to others and went there, and now he is no longer with us. May his soul rest in peace.”
