Introduction
"Gawara Nahi" is a Hindi heartbreak single sung by Ankit Tiwari, composed by Bharat Goel with lyrics by Kunaal Vermaa, presented by Tips Originals. It is the confession of a lover who cannot accept the end: you may not be mine, but I will always be yours — and the thought of you belonging to anyone else is simply "gawara nahi", unacceptable. The official video, directed by Mohammed Nadeem Akhtar, stars Asim Riaz and Himanshi Khurana. On this page you will find the complete Gawara Nahi lyrics in Hindi (Devanagari script), Roman Hindi and English translation, along with the song's meaning, full credits and the official video.
The Song
"Gawara Nahi" is built on a refusal. The hook states the terms plainly: "Kisi aur ke ho sakein, gawara nahi hai; tere hi rahenge, tu bhale hamara nahi hai" — that you could become someone else's is unacceptable; I will remain yours even if you are not mine. Around that vow, the verses collect the evidence of a finished love: her hundred remembered words, all of them false; her watching his ruin like a stranger at a spectacle; the moon that will keep rising and reminding him. The most striking turn comes near the end: he has told everyone he is free of this prison ("hum is qaid se azaad hain") — and immediately admits the lines of her fate are still written on him, and that while love may have lost, his heart has not ("bhale ishq haara, dil magar ye haara nahi hai"). Bharat Goel's brooding production gives Ankit Tiwari's wounded voice all the room it needs.
The Artist
Ankit Tiwari is one of Bollywood's defining heartbreak voices, known for era-defining sad songs, and "Gawara Nahi" plays directly to that strength — a slow, bruised vocal that never raises its voice and never needs to. The song is composed and produced by Bharat Goel, among the busiest music producers in Hindi music, and written by Kunaal Vermaa, the lyricist behind many of the decade's biggest romantic hits.
The Music Video
The official music video of "Gawara Nahi" stars Asim Riaz and Himanshi Khurana, whose real-life pairing made the video an instant favourite with fans. Directed by Mohammed Nadeem Akhtar and produced by Kumar Taurani, it plays the song as a story of a love watched from the wrong side of goodbye — he looks on, like a stranger, at what used to be his.

Gawara Nahi Lyrics Meaning in English
"Gawara Nahi" means "not acceptable", and the song is a one-sided lover drawing the only line he has left. The relationship is over by her decision, not his, and his answer is an asymmetrical vow: "tere hi rahenge, tu bhale hamara nahi hai" — I will remain yours though you are not mine. The verses show the cost of that vow. He has memorised a hundred of her words and discovered they were false; she watches his destruction as if she were a stranger; the moon will keep arriving as a reminder. He claims publicly that he is free of love's prison ("qaid se azaad"), but the song's last admission gives him away — her palm-lines never left him, and his heart, unlike his love, refuses to accept defeat ("dil magar ye haara nahi hai"). The meaning is devotion after the end of hope: loyalty that survives being unwanted.
Conclusion
"Gawara Nahi" is Ankit Tiwari doing what only he does — turning rejection into a pledge. Kunaal Vermaa's hook line is one of the most quoted Hindi heartbreak lines of its year, and the Asim Riaz–Himanshi Khurana video carried it to an enormous audience. A modern one-sided-love anthem, done properly.
