Metro… In Dino Trailer Launch: Anurag Basu, the director who gave Hindi cinema audiences a unique experience of stories woven with emotions, relationships, and urban life through Life in a… Metro (2007), is back with a similar feeling in his upcoming film Metro... In Dino. The trailer launch of this new film was held at the renowned Bal Gandharva Auditorium in Mumbai and was special in many ways — while the actors engaged in light-hearted and interesting conversations with the media, several emotional moments also became a part of the evening.
The entire star cast was present at the event —Sara Ali Khan, Aditya Roy Kapur, Fatima Sana Shaikh, Ali Fazal, Konkona Sen Sharma, Pankaj Tripathi, Neena Gupta, Anupam Kher, along with director Anurag Basu and producer Bhushan Kumar.
Fashion Highlights
At the event, Sara Ali Khan showcased simplicity in style by wearing a plain white short dress. Meanwhile, Fatima Sana Shaikh looked quite elegant in a black outfit. Konkona Sen Sharma stunned in a saree, stealing attention with her graceful presence. Additionally, Aditya Roy Kapur and Ali Fazal’s casual looks appeared to set a trend among the youth.
But the outfit that drew the most attention was Neena Gupta’s. She wore a white 'Ran kaftan' paired with a golden 'biscuit bra'—a bold and stylish combination. The outfit was from her daughter Masaba Gupta’s fashion label, House of Masaba.
A Unique Start to the Event
The event began in a rather unusual way. Before the journalists could start asking questions, the cast members began posing questions to the journalists—particularly about their love lives. The entire session saw a light-hearted exchange between the actors and the press, touching upon aspects of their personal lives in a playful tone.
Stars Share Their Thoughts
Sara Ali Khan said: “I’m very happy to be a part of this film. Sitting here with so many incredible actors is an honor. My look today may not be fashionable in the typical sense, but I really like its simplicity.”
Bhushan Kumar said: “I absolutely love the songs of this film. Anurag Basu’s direction is extraordinary. My entire team and I are truly proud of this project.”
To this, Anurag Basu added:“Pritam kept pushing me to make Metro… In Dino. He’s still working on the songs, which is why he couldn’t be here today.”
Dedicated to KK and Irrfan Khan
During the event, Anurag Basu paid heartfelt tribute to late singer KK and actor Irrfan Khan. He said, “This entire film is a tribute to KK and Irrfan. We miss them deeply. I was talking to Bhushan Kumar about how Pritam’s music becomes even more magical with KK’s voice. His absence is still felt in every note.”
Neena Gupta’s Birthday Celebration
A touching moment came when Neena Gupta celebrated her 66th birthday at the event. A cake-cutting ceremony took place and the entire room sang the birthday song for her. Getting emotional, Neena said: “This is the first time I’ve celebrated my birthday in front of so many people. It feels very special.”
Aditya’s Mischief with Fatima
After the cake-cutting, as Fatima was about to take a piece of cake, Aditya Roy Kapur playfully plucked one of the roses placed on the cake and offered it to her to eat. Fatima looked at him surprised, then burst out laughing at his sweet prank.
Anupam Kher’s Sentimental Connection
Another emotional highlight came when Anupam Kher revealed his connection to the venue —
“I came to this city on June 3, 1981, and on June 9, I got my first job here at this auditorium as a teacher. Back then, it was an open space with cemented seats. I used to conduct group classes here. Coming back today, it feels like my whole life flashed before my eyes. I’m deeply grateful to God.”
Interestingly, both Anupam Kher and Neena Gupta studied at the same drama school.
Sara's Favorite Bollywood Couple
During a media interaction, when Sara was asked to name her favorite married and successful Bollywood couple, she appeared a little uncomfortable and paused. To lighten the mood, Neena Gupta joked with the reporter.
After a moment, Sara answered:“My father and Kareena,” referring to Saif Ali Khan and his wife Kareena Kapoor Khan.
Basu’s Emotional Tribute to His Father
In response to a journalist’s question, Anurag Basu said,“All the stories in this film are real. Even though people may consider me a successful director now, I feel I haven’t even come close to my father Subroto Basu’s legacy.
Metro… In Dino is set to release in theaters on July 4, 2025. The film features ensemble performances by Sara Ali Khan, Aditya Roy Kapur, Ali Fazal, Fatima Sana Shaikh, Konkona Sen Sharma, Pankaj Tripathi, Neena Gupta, and Anupam Kher.
