Inherited from Old Hindi भागना (bhāganā), based on the past participle भागा (bhāgā, fled, running), from Apabhramsa भग्गिअ (bhaggia), from Prakrit भग्ग (bhagga, fled, broken), from Sanskrit भग्न (bhagna, broken, defeated, lost), from the root भञ्ज् (bhañj). Cognate with Nepali भाग्नु (bhāgnu), Gujarati ભાગવું (bhāgvũ), as well as Punjabi ਭੱਜਣਾ (bhajjaṇā) from a different derivation.
