Shravan Kumar Rathod, of the popular music composer duo Nadeem-Shravan, passed away on Thursday. He was suffering from COVID-19 and was admitted here at Raheja Hospital in Mahim. Soon after the tragic death of the composer, reports of his body being held by the hospital over a Rs 10 lakh bill surfaced on the internet.
Now, in an official statement, an associate of SL Raheja Hospital, Mahim-A Fortis has denied the reports and termed them false. The statement read as, "With profound grief, we share the news of the passing of music composer Shravan Rathod, of the Nadeem-Shravan fame. As we offer our condolences to the bereaved family, we remain in touch with the family to offer support that may be required in these difficult times. In conjunction with the family, we refute all false claims about holding back the deceased for payments; unverified stories based on hearsay further aggravates the pained family. We extend our deepest sympathies to the family."
The ace music composer was admitted to SL Raheja hospital in a 'critical' condition after testing positive for COVID-19 recently. He breathed his last in the hospital.
Shravan was in his late sixties when he breathed his last.
