Shravan Rathod visited Kumbh Mela for holy bath before his COVID-19 illness

Shravan Rathod of famous Nadeem-Shravan fame died on Thursday due to Covid 19 related complications.  Now in a interview with PTI, his son Sanjeev Rathod mentioned that both his mother and father had gone to the ongoing Kumbh Mela a few days back and he started showing symptoms later. Sanjeev was quoted as saying, “Father was admitted last week after he started showing symptoms… He attended Kumbh Mela. But I wouldn’t put my hand on it and say he caught the virus there.

”He added that he would like to rather think that his father Shravan Rathod went to the Kumbh and surrendered himself to the Almighty there. “I don’t know how it happened or where exactly he contracted it. One way to look at it could be that our souls find peace in God after death, but someone at his age got to visit a holy place and then surrendered to God,” he said. Sanjeev and his mom Vimla Rathod are still admitted to the hospital. He said he has mild symptoms and it’s his second day at the hospital. The late musician’s mortal remains were collected by his other son Darshan Rathod who performed the last rites. Nadeem-Shravan composed super hit music in Bollywood during the 90s golden era. From Aashiqui, Saajan, Parde to Raja Hindustani - the duo made some classics. Post their split, Nadeem and Shravan collaborated one more time for David Dhawan's Do Knot Disturb in 2009.
