”Sad News: Noted singer Sonu Nigam just confirmed to me that music composer Wajid Khan of Sajid-Wajid passed away a short while back. He was suffering from Covid 19.”

But contrary to this, Khan reportedly died due to heart and Kidney issues – as per FilmiBeat.

Reports also convey that Wajid was admitted to a Mumbai-based hospital in serious condition and the music composer has breathed his last today.
