While most medical graduates look toward a future in clinics and hospitals, Rishbh Tiwari looked inward—and heard a different calling.
The artist behind the soulful hit “Aankhon Ke Darmiya” isn't just another rising voice in India’s independent music scene. He’s a qualified doctor who traded his stethoscope for a studio mic. And when he posted a quiet but powerful photo from his anatomy class—months after launching his music career—fans were floored.
“Yes, I studied medicine. I wore the coat, I dissected, I diagnosed,” Tiwari shared. “But somewhere in that journey, I realized I was healing others—while leaving a part of myself behind. Music brought me back to life.”
In a world obsessed with formulas—whether in science or pop music—Rishbh Tiwari is breaking them all.

His breakout single, “Aankhon Ke Darmiya”, dropped in 2020 and immediately carved a space in India’s indie music landscape. With poetic lyrics, a cinematic soundscape, and vocals dripping with raw emotion, the track didn’t just win hearts—it announced the arrival of an artist who understands both emotional and anatomical intricacies.
“I was deep into medicine when I realized music wasn’t just a passion—it was a purpose,” says Tiwari, reflecting on the shift that surprised even his closest friends. A now-viral photo he posted from an anatomy lab caught fans off-guard, confirming what few knew: this rising romantic voice once studied root canals and restorations before stepping into the studio.

“Dentistry taught me precision, patience, and how to really listen,” he says. “Those skills are just as valuable in music. When I write or record, I’m not chasing trends—I’m studying emotion.”
The Mumbai-based singer-songwriter now blends his medical past with a deeply introspective musical style. His songs don’t just sound beautiful—they feel human. Tender, precise, and disarmingly real.
With more music on the way, and a growing fanbase hungry for authenticity, Rishbh Tiwari is proving that true artistry isn’t about following one path—it’s about knowing when to take a different one.
Born with both scientific curiosity and an artistic soul, Tiwari walked the full path of medical education before turning to music full-time. His decision wasn’t reckless—it was deliberate. And the result? Songs like “Bohot Hi Khoobsurat”, where emotional anatomy meets lyrical precision.
Released in 2023, the track resonated across platforms for its romantic depth and hauntingly beautiful composition. But beneath its elegance lies a mind trained to listen closely—to people, pain, and silence. That duality is what makes Tiwari’s work so compelling.
Today, Rishbh Tiwari stands at the intersection of science and art—not abandoning one, but letting both inform the other. His story is rare, real, and deeply inspiring.
He didn’t quit medicine. He simply found a new way to heal.
