Filmmakers Suneel Darshan and Mahesh Bhatt pay tribute to the late composer Shravan Rathod.

In my mind, Nadeem-Shravan are always there. The audience appreciation for their music has always been tremendous. We were fans of the Nadeem-Shravan decade of remarkable music through the 1990s’. They went through a turbulent time when Nadeem was among the accused, now acquitted, in the Gulshan Kumar murder case. I first worked with the duo in Ek Rishta [2001]. [Post which], we worked in a string of movies - Haan Maine Bhi Pyar Kiya [2002] Mere Jeevan Saathi [2006], Andaaz [2003], Barsaat [2005], among others. While Nadeem handled 100 per cent of the composition from UK, Shravan orchestrated the song, got the vocals prepared and mixed the song in India. My film Dosti: Friends Forever [2005] was their last project together. In Nadeem’s absence, my association started with Shravan. As a creative man, the urge to compose music was always there in him.
I hear echoes of him humming: Mahesh Bhatt
