Noted music composer Aadesh Shrivastava died of cancer in 2015 at the age of 51. In the course of his career, he composed over 100 songs. He composed songs for films like `Joru Ka Ghulam`, `Kunwara`, `Rehna Hai Tere Dil Mein`, `Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham`, `Baghban`, `Chalte Chalte` among others. In a recent interview, Aadesh`s wife and former actor Vijayta Pandit spoke about her son Avitesh Shrivastava and how he needs help. She said that Avitesh is a singer, music composer, and actor. She requested her husband`s good friend Shah Rukh Khan to support her son like he had promised Aadesh on his deathbed. 

Vijayta Pandit recalls Shah Rukh Khan`s promise to late Aadesh 

In an interview with Lehren Retro, Vijayta said in Hindi, "He (Avitesh) works so hard, he has recorded music with Akon and French Montana, among others. But unfortunately, my son is not getting support or direction in the film industry. People from the industry know that today Aadesh is not there, they should help my son. You won`t believe when Aadesh was in the hospital, Shah Rukh Khan used to come and meet. One day before he died, Aadesh held Shah Rukh`s hand, when he could not even talk, and gestured pointing towards our son that he should look after him. Today, I am just not able to contact Shah Rukh; the number that was given to my son is not working. I just want to remind Shah Rukh that he was a good friend of Aadesh, and this is the time, we need you. I need you for my son because he is my and our family`s future. I am not earning, I am not doing anything."
