The reason behind Wajid’s death is not confirmed yet. The news was broken by Wajid’s colleagues from the music industry Sonu Nigam and Salim Merchant who were the firsts to remember their dear friend in tweets. As the rest of the industry woke up to the news, more people started pouring in their condolences.

There has been no official statement from the family of Wajid Khan yet. His brother, Sajid Khan, who used to be his frequent collaborator while composing music, has not spoken out either. Various media reports suggest that the 42-year-old music composer suffered from COVID-19 and was at the hospital for the last few days, while other reports suggest that he died due to kidney failure.

May his soul rest in peace!
