Mumbai lit up with cinematic flair as some of Bollywood’s top creative minds—including casting ace Mukesh Chhabra, filmmakers Aanand L Rai, Vikramaditya Motwane, and Anees Bazmee—stepped out for the grand special screening of Metro… In Dino. Hosted a day ahead of its release, the screening turned into a celebration of storytelling, nostalgia, and new beginnings.
Directed by the ever-visionary Anurag Basu, Metro… In Dino is the spiritual sequel to his 2007 cult classic Life in a… Metro. The film weaves together four deeply emotional and relatable stories of love and connection, all unfolding across India’s buzzing metros—Mumbai, Delhi, Kolkata, and Bangalore. As with its predecessor, expect soul-stirring music, layered characters, and a cinematic exploration of modern relationships.
The ensemble cast reads like a who’s who of Bollywood’s finest. From veterans like Anupam Kher and Neena Gupta to indie powerhouses Konkona Sen Sharma and Pankaj Tripathi, and the youth brigade of Aditya Roy Kapur, Sara Ali Khan, Ali Fazal, and Fatima Sana Shaikh—Metro… In Dino promises something for every generation of film lovers. Bonus: the stories, while standalone, cleverly intersect in a way that builds emotional resonance throughout.
Released on July 4, 2025, the film is already generating buzz for its heartfelt moments and Basu’s signature touch of realism-meets-magic. With its mix of romance, pain, humor, and redemption, Metro… In Dino looks set to be the kind of film that lingers long after the credits roll—and maybe, just maybe, leaves you checking train schedules to your own story's next stop.
