Love stories set in city chaos
'Metro... In Dino' once again takes us into the busy streets and quiet corners of a city, showing how love, trust, heartbreak and fresh starts unfold. Much like 'Life... In A Metro', it weaves together different stories, all tied by the buzz of urban life.

Konkona Sen Sharma is the only actor returning from the original film. She shines with her calm strength. Neena Gupta brings her special charm and weight. Sara Ali Khan, Fatima Sana Shaikh, Ali Fazal and
Aditya
Roy Kapur add a young, breezy feel. Meanwhile, seasoned actors like Anupam Kher and Pankaj Tripathi fill the film with warmth and gentle laughs.
Movie review
'The Times of India' shared a balanced take on the film. The movie review read, "Despite being largely pleasant, some tracks don't quite add up, feel uneven and don't know where to end.
After an engaging build up, the second half feels a tad stretched. You also wish the story scratched the surface a little more, especially for Konkona-Neena Gupta track, where the actors have the potential and gravitas to dig deeper."
Still, it also pointed out why the film clicks in today's times. The review said,'There has been a scarcity of love stories in Bollywood and Metro In Dino, elevated by some fine performances, fills that gap perfectly. It is a breezy, intimate watch tailor-made for a rainy day."
Will it hold up next week?
With new films like 'Aankhon Ki Gustaakhiyan' and 'Maalik' releasing this Friday, all eyes are on how 'Metro... In Dino' holds up at the box office. For now, it has managed to keep a steady run and won hearts with its take on city love stories.

Shekhar Kapur poses a big question on the future of coaching classes in the light of AI

Acclaimed filmmaker Shekhar Kapur has posed a big question on the future of coaching classes in the light of constant advancement in the field of AI. Taking to his X timeline, Shekhar shared that as he was recently driving from Delhi to Mussoorie, he noticed the huge number of signboards for coaching classes. The 'Mr India' maker revealed that the urge to get a certificate in an attempt to procure a nice job has turned the coaching classes into a $ 25 billion industry. Aamir Khan's son, Junaid Khan's 'cool' transformation wows the internet; fans call him 'Indian Henry Cavill' "The informal unregulated education sector in India .. Coaching classes etc is estimated to be worth about $ 25 billion. Spread across both the Urban and rural areas .. parents , middle and lower class, desperately need their kids to have some certificate that proves they have some education ... a certificate ! That enables them to potentially get a job .. potentially be recruited .. but all potentially," he wrote. Shekhar pointed out that AI is also capable of providing the same education in the comfort of one's home, and that too at a much cheaper rate; however, one thing it lacks is a certificate. "Why do you need a certificate .. because any recruitment for a job needs that certificate ... Job? Recruitment ? Certificate ? .. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Redefine Your Future with a Top Online MBA SRM Online Enquire Now Undo AI is soon not only going to change the nature of recruitment... but also the nature of job," he added. Shekhar is of the opinion that AI will soon give every job seeker the ability, and the power of exploring their own abilities - something beyond the coaching class certificate. "We are heading to a time where everyone will be their own CEO," he concluded. On the professional front, Shekhar is currently working on the sequel of his iconic drama "Masoom"- "Masoom, the next generation", which is expected to star Naseeruddin Shah , Manoj Bajpayee , Nithya Menen , Shabana Azmi , and his daughter Kaveri Kapur .
