KK and Shaan had collaborated on several hit songs, such as Koi Kahe, Time To Disco, Dus Bahane, Golmaal, and much more. They last appeared together on Kapil Sharma’s show and shared a great equation. Mourning the death of KK, Shaan had previously shared a video of his stage performance with the late singer. He penned with it, “Life breaks you little by little…And once in a while…It destroys you…KK will always remain that eternal boy, who refused to grow up…He stayed unadulterated, uncorrupted…How he did it through all these years…Kept it simple and straight from the heart.”

KK performed at a concert organised by Gurudas College at Nazrul Mancha in south Kolkata in the evening on May 31. He was “feeling heavy” after reaching his hotel, and soon collapsed, officials said. While he was taken to a hospital, doctors declared him brought dead upon arrival. According to a doctor who conducted KK’s autopsy, the singer died due to cardiac arrest.
