Introduction
"Naal Nachna" is the dance anthem from the Bollywood film Dhurandhar, sung by Afsana Khan and rapper Reble, with music by Shashwat Sachdev and lyrics by Reble and Irshad Kamil. Featuring Ranveer Singh and Sara Arjun, the song premiered on 31 December 2025 and turned theatres into dance floors, crossing 97 million views on YouTube. Its promise is simple and irresistible: whatever the night brings, "Maine toh tere naal nachna" - I just have to dance with you. On this page you will find the complete Naal Nachna lyrics in Punjabi (Gurmukhi), in Roman Punjabi and in English translation, the full song details, the official video, the meaning of the song, and answers to the questions fans ask most about it.
The Song
"Naal Nachna" is a celebration of youth that refuses to listen to the world. Its Punjabi heart says it plainly: this deaf youth hears nobody, it is drunk on its own fun - "Duniya di sundi na behri jawaani, masti ch mastayi jehri jawaani". Why hide from the intentions of the night? Let the nights be beautiful, because youth must not be allowed to grow old unused. Nobody's control works on youth - "Chalta jawaani pe koi bas na" - so there is only one decision left: dance.
Around that hook, Reble's English verses bring a global party energy - good girls partying like bad ones, running like the city will burn if they slow down, ride or die before the lights come back. Shashwat Sachdev's production, with additional production by Steve Kottoor, fuses the two worlds so smoothly that the song feels like one long, breathless night.
The Artists
Afsana Khan is one of Punjab's most powerful female voices, and her commanding delivery turns the hook of "Naal Nachna" into a command nobody can refuse. Opposite her, Reble - the rapper who also co-wrote the song with Irshad Kamil - brings an international, English-first flow that made younger listeners instantly adopt the track. The combination of a folk-rooted powerhouse and a new-age rapper, held together by Shashwat Sachdev's music direction, is exactly the formula that made this the Dhurandhar album's party starter.
The Music Video
The official video of "Naal Nachna" features Ranveer Singh and Sara Arjun from Aditya Dhar's Dhurandhar in the film's big celebratory dance sequence. The staging matches the lyric's spirit - colour, movement and a crowd that refuses to sit down - and audiences famously turned cinema halls into stadiums when the song played. Its premiere on New Year's Eve made it the soundtrack of the season's parties.
The Music Label
"Naal Nachna" is released by Saregama Music (Saregama India Ltd, an RPSG Group Company), the official music label of Dhurandhar. The film is presented by Jio Studios as a B62 Studios production, written, directed and produced by Aditya Dhar, and produced by Jyoti Deshpande and Lokesh Dhar.

Naal Nachna Lyrics in Punjabi
ਦੁਨੀਆ ਦੀ ਸੁਣਦੀ ਨਾ ਬੇਹਰੀ ਜਵਾਨੀ
ਮਸਤੀ 'ਚ ਮਸਤਾਈ ਜੇਹੜੀ ਜਵਾਨੀ
ਰਾਤਾਂ ਦੇ ਇਰਾਦਿਆਂ ਤੋਂ ਕੀ ਬਚਣਾ
ਮੈਂ ਤਾਂ ਤੇਰੇ ਨਾਲ ਨੱਚਣਾ
ਨੀ ਮੈਂ ਤਾਂ ਤੇਰੇ ਨਾਲ ਨੱਚਣਾ
ਹੋਣ ਦੇ ਹੋਣ ਦੇ ਰਾਤਾਂ ਸੁਹਾਣੀ
ਦੇਖੋ ਪੁਰਾਣੀ ਨਾ ਹੋ ਇਹ ਜਵਾਨੀ
ਚਲਦਾ ਜਵਾਨੀ 'ਤੇ ਕੋਈ ਬੱਸ ਨਾ
Naal Nachna Lyrics in Roman Punjabi
Naal Nachna Lyrics in English
This deaf youth does not listen to the world
The youth that is intoxicated in its own fun
Why escape the intentions of these nights?
I just have to dance with you
Oh, I just have to dance with you
Let the nights be, let the nights be beautiful
Make sure this youth does not grow old
No one has any control over youth
Good girls like to party like the bad ones
She brought her friends, I got all my mans
She be throwing signs, that be great romance
She gave me a chance, I be making plans
I am gonna take that, I be taking a chance
Take that, baby, take that
Naal Nachna Lyrics Meaning
"Naal Nachna" means "to dance with (you)", and the hook - "Maine toh tere naal nachna" - simply means "I just have to dance with you". Around that one decision, the song builds a whole philosophy of youth. This young age is deaf to the world's advice; it is intoxicated with its own fun. Why run away from what the night intends? Let the nights be beautiful, and do not let this youth grow old without living it - because nobody, neither elders nor rules, has any real control over youth: "Chalta jawaani pe koi bas na".
Reble's English verses widen the scene to a city at night: two people looking out for each other after sunset, running like the city will burn if they slow down, stealing a kiss like the lights might not come back - a ride-or-die party romance. Read together, the meaning of "Naal Nachna" is pure permission: the night is short, youth is shorter, and the only correct answer to both is to dance with the one you want.
