The city never truly sleeps—and neither do the stories it hides. Filmmaker Anurag Basu, known for weaving magic into everyday chaos, is back with Metro… इन दिनों, the long-awaited continuation of his celebrated anthology style seen in Life in a… Metro and Ludo. The trailer has finally dropped, setting the tone for what promises to be a soul-stirring, emotionally charged journey through the heartbeats of urban life.
Backed by T-Series and Anurag Basu Productions, Metro… इन दिनों boasts a powerhouse ensemble cast—Anupam Kher, Pankaj Tripathi, Konkona Sen Sharma, Aditya Roy Kapur, Sara Ali Khan, Fatima Sana Shaikh, Ali Fazal, and Neena Gupta—all coming together in a tapestry of stories that explore modern love, heartbreak, hope, and human connection.
Trailer Teases Love, Loss, and Life in Motion
The trailer gives a peek into four distinct yet interwoven narratives that reflect the trials and triumphs of relationships in the digital age. True to Basu’s style, it blends realism with poetic flair, offering intense emotional beats alongside subtle, magical moments. The cityscapes of Mumbai, Delhi, Kolkata, and Lucknow serve not just as backdrops, but as silent narrators to these deeply personal tales.
Pritam’s evocative score and the return of the hauntingly beautiful “In Dino” elevate the trailer, promising that music, once again, will be the soul of this urban saga.
A Spiritual Successor to a Cult Classic
Metro… इन दिनों takes its title from the beloved track “In Dino” featured in Basu’s 2007 cult hit Life in a… Metro. While the original film examined urban discontent and secret desires, this new chapter turns its lens on contemporary dilemmas—social media love, second chances, broken homes, and rekindled connections.
With dialogues penned by Samrat Chakraborty, the film captures the vulnerability and resilience of modern relationships. It’s not just about falling in love—it’s about finding your way back to the same person amidst the noise of the city.
Release Date and Production
Officially announced in December 2022, the film wrapped up principal shooting by February 2024 across India’s most vibrant cities. Produced by Bhushan Kumar, Krishan Kumar, Anurag Basu, and Taani Basu, Metro… इन दिनों is set to hit theatres on 4th July, 2025.
As the final chapter in Basu’s trilogy of interconnected tales, Metro… इन दिनों invites viewers to pause, reflect, and perhaps rediscover a part of themselves in the chaos of city life.
Watch the trailer now and let the city speak to your soul.
