Lyricist Sameer, who is Shravan's close friend, told another daily that since the music composer is diabetic, his lungs have been affected. "Shravan is diabetic and with this infection, his lungs have been totally infected. He has also developed heart issues, please pray to God almighty for his speedy recovery," Sameer told. 

In the '90s, Shravan along with Nadeem composed chartbuster songs for films like Aashiqui, Saajan, Dil Hai Ke Maanta Nahin, Sadak and Deewana, among many others.
