About the film Metro In Dino

Metro In Dino, the romantic drama by director Anurag Basu, is set to carry forward the emotional resonance and layered storytelling that turned Life in a… Metro (2007) into a cult classic. Written and directed by Basu, Metro In Dino dives deep into the complexities of urban relationships, reflecting the dynamics of contemporary life in today’s bustling cities.

The film, slated for an early 2025 release, is produced by T-Series Films and Anurag Basu Productions. Touted as a “spiritual sequel” to Life in a Metro, the film is structured as an anthology, weaving together four distinct stories of modern couples. As the narrative unfolds, these stories connect, exploring the nuances and intricacies of love in a fast-paced, ever-evolving world. The film’s title, Metro In Dino, is a nod to the popular song "In Dino" from Life in a Metro, which resonates with the themes of urban solitude and longing.

With dialogue penned by Samrat Chakraborty, Metro In Dino promises to deliver an emotionally charged cinematic experience. Filming took place across major Indian cities—Delhi, Mumbai, Kolkata, and Lucknow—adding an authentic backdrop to its urban tales. The film was officially announced in December 2022, and principal photography wrapped up by February 2024, heightening anticipation for the latest addition to Basu’s unique storytelling universe.
