==Career==
{{refimprove section|date=September 2015}}
Born in a Hindu [[Kayastha]] family in [[Jabalpur|Katni]], Shrivastava got his first big break with the film ''Kanyadaan'' in 1993. Among the singers who sang in this movie, there was [[Lata Mangeshkar]] who sang his first song - Oh Sajna Dilbar, a duet with [[Udit Narayan]], which became popular on the radio.{{cn|date=May 2020}} But the film and the rest of the songs went unnoticed. The same thing happened with ''Jaane Tamanna'', but he bounced back with ''[[Aao Pyaar Karen (1994 film)|Aao Pyaar Karen]]''.{{cn|date=May 2020}} One track "Haathon Mein Aa Gaya Jo Kal" was a hit. His other films are ''Salma Pe Dil Aa Gaya'' and ''Shastra''. The song "Kya Ada Kya Jalwe Tere Paro", from the film ''Shastra'' got him in the limelight once again.{{cn|date=May 2020}} In 1995, Shrivastava was a judge on ''[[Sa Re Ga Ma Pa]]''.{{cn|date=May 2020}}

Shrivastava sang a number of hit songs such as "Sona Sona", "Shava Shava", "Gustakhiyaan" and "Gur Nalon Ishq Mitha".
