You started your career in music at a very, very young age. Qayamat se qayamat happened in the same year that i was born. You know when I was born, my dad wasn’t actually happy because he was struggling then and was going through a lot of pressure. I have seen both the sides his struggle & his success. It was his struggle that I have seen and experienced. Mom, dad & 1 used to live in my mom’s house in Kalina in a 1bhk. We belong to a village in Bihar which still doesn’t have electricity.
Its probably because of our humble roots. In fact I’m fortunate to have a very simple and a loving family who never made me feel like a ‘star kid’. I have always admired and looked up to him. I think I’m very lucky to have him as my father. Udit concluded saying, "I wish he had not gone to the Kumbh Mela.How was it growing up in your father’s shadow?
But it was my personal bonding with Shravan Bhai that was special.” According to me they were among the best composers of Hindi cinema.
Subsequently I sang many beautiful songs for Nadeem-Shravan. I may have sung only one song in Aashiqui. Shravan Bhai was one of the lasting relationships I made in the industry. Why should I? For 40 years it has given me fame and fortune. You will never hear me badmouthing anyone or saying bad things about the film industry. No vices, not a word of malice against anyone. Talking about his association with Shravan, Udit said, "He was a saint in human form. Udit said that his son has been urging him and his wife to get vaccinated but he is afraid to step out of his house because of the current situation. His son Aditya Narayan and wife Deepa are down with Covid. The singer further said added he is yet to take the vaccine. And to think Shravan Bhai’s death could have been avoided.” Also Read - Ekta Kapoor gears up for Daayan Mukti Yagna at the Maha Kumbh mela We spent many evenings together chatting, and not just about music.

And his son Sanjeev (who is one-half of the two composer brothers Sanjeev-Darshan) also has it. I wish he had not taken this huge risk and also put his wife under so much risk.
He suffered from high blood pressure and acute diabetes. Shravan Bhai had a history of chronic illnesses. I found this out by chance when I called him two weeks ago.
