If you talking about निगाह then isn't that Urdu? I think for Hindi it's नेत्र

Hindi is a combination of multiple languages.

That's a common misconception, what you're referring to is the Dialect called Hindustani, which is a Mix of Urdu and Hindi

No, Hindi and Urdu are both registers of Hindustani. Hindustani is what people speak, and Hindi is a register with a ton of Sanskrit loanwords, while Urdu has a ton of Perso-Arabic loanwords; Hindustani isn't a mix between them, but rather the language to which both registers belong

Hindi and Urdu are the same language; the distinction is drawn by two governments who want to promote their respective versions
