Both are trying to get a breakthrough in their professions. Abhinav wants to be an actor, and Reva wants to be a choreographer. Both meet, fall in love, and spend some intimate moments together. Abhinav tries to help Reva out. Things get better when he gets his first film offer; however, Reva refuses his help and wants to make it on her own. Abhinav becomes a huge star. She eventually gets her first offer to choreograph, but the director only wants to approach Abhinav through her. Eventually, both of them drift apart and break up. Reva finally gets a genuine offer to choreograph by Diwakar ([Riteish Deshmukh](/source/Riteish_Deshmukh)), who likes her style and work. Reva by now has become a huge star, and soon she is given the offer to work with Abhinav. The rest of the film focuses on whether Abhinav and Reva can put their differences aside and if they get back together. ## Cast - [Abhishek Bachchan](/source/Abhishek_Bachchan) as Abhinav Kalantri - [Antara Mali](/source/Antara_Mali) as Reva - [Ritesh Deshmukh](/source/Ritesh_Deshmukh) as Diwakar Pandit - Rajesh Tandon as Sandesh - [Priya Badlani](/source/Priya_Badlani) as Priya - [Manoj Pahwa](/source/Manoj_Pahwa) as Director - Rajesh Khera as Rajesh Malhotra ## Soundtrack Naach Soundtrack album by Amar Mohile, Shailendra-Swapnil & Nitin Raikwar Released 15 October 2004 (2004-10-15)[1] Genre Feature film soundtrack Length 38:42 Language Hindi Label T-Series The soundtrack of *Naach* consists of 8 songs composed by [Amar Mohile](/source/Amar_Mohile), Shailendra-Swapnil, and Nitin Raikwar; the lyrics of which were written by Nitin Raikwar, Taabish Romani, [Jaideep Sahni](/source/Jaideep_Sahni), and [Makrand Deshpande](/source/Makrand_Deshpande).[2] Tracklist No. Title Lyrics Music Singer(s) Length 1.

The critic gave the film a rating of 3.5 out of 5.[3] Taran Adarsh of [Bollywood Hungama](/source/Bollywood_Hungama) praised the acting performances of Antara Mali and Abhishek Bachchan and gave the film a rating of 1.5 out of 5 saying that, "NAACH lacks in that vital department that’s the lifeline of every film – script."[4] In 2010, Raja Sen of [Rediff.com](/source/Rediff.com) added the film to his list of "75 Landmark Films of the Decade," writing, "Ram Gopal Varma's take on [Ayn Rand](/source/Ayn_Rand)'s [Fountainhead](/source/The_Fountainhead) features a struggling choreographer and a wannabe actor find and lose themselves through impressively improvised naturalism. Great performances, bonafide heart and RGV's quirkiest frames."[5] ## References 1. **[^](#cite_ref-1)** ["Naach (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack)"](https://music.apple.com/in/album/naach-original-motion-picture-soundtrack/1139403668).
