Gehra Hua

How to play Gehra Hua by Shashwat Sachdev, Arijit Singh, Irshad Kamil & Armaan Khan on guitar

These are the sounding chords. With a capo on fret 3 you play G, C, Em, D, Am, B and more, the shapes the player above shows.

Gehra Hua is a strong song to learn if you want a moody, flowing progression that sits well at a steady tempo. At about 120 BPM, it feels controlled and expressive, with enough movement to keep your fretting hand busy without becoming overwhelming.

The chart mixes open shapes and barre shapes, so you get a good intermediate workout. The easier shapes are F, D, C, Dm, and G, while A#, D#, Gm, and Cm need more hand strength and clean muting. Watch the move from A# to D# to Gm in the opening progression, since that shift can feel tight at first.

Start by looping the opening progression slowly and making each change clean before worrying about speed. Then practice the barre shapes on their own, add the open shapes back in, and finally play the full sequence with a steady pulse until the changes feel automatic.

Use the play-along above to follow each chord change in time with the music, or learn the shapes first with the chord diagrams below.
