Anurag Basu's 'Metro In Dino' Explores Love in Modern Urban Chaos

Anurag Basu's latest film 'Metro In Dino' hit theaters on July 4 and has made a steady start at the box office. The musical drama features a star-studded ensemble cast including Sara Ali Khan, Aditya Roy Kapur, Neena Gupta, Anupam Kher, Konkona Sen Sharma, Pankaj Tripathi, Ali Fazal, and Fatima Sana Shaikh.

The film explores the complexities of love and relationships in the hustle and bustle of modern urban life. While it had a modest opening, collecting around ₹3.5 crore on its release day, the numbers saw a boost over the weekend, reaching ₹6 crore on Saturday and ₹7.25 crore on Sunday. However, the first weekday did not work in the film's favor, with collections dipping to ₹2.5 crore on the fourth day. This brings the total collection to ₹19.25 crore in its first four days.

The film is being called a perfect monsoon romantic entertainer, with the review praising its setting and ability to "stage emotions" amidst the mundane locations of the city. The beauty of 'Metro In Dino' lies in its ability to find the magical in the ordinary, as love unfurls in the most unexpected urban settings.
