The makers of Metro…In Dino unveiled the film's first track, Zamaana Lage, on Wednesday, which received positive responses from the audience. Sung by Arijit Singh and Shashwat Singh, the track is composed by Pritam and beautifully explores themes of love, loss, and loneliness in urban cities.
Apart from Fatima, other cast members of Metro…In Dino, including Aditya Roy Kapur, Sara Ali Khan, Pankaj Tripathi, Ali Fazal, Neena Gupta, Anupam Kher, Konkona Sen Sharma, producer Bhushan Kumar, composer Pritam, Papon, Raghav Chaitanya and Shashwat Singh among others, also marked their presence.
Helmed by Anurag Basu, the film is an anthology and is scheduled to hit the big screens on July 2, 2025. It is a spiritual sequel to the 2007 drama film Life…In A Metro and aims to carry on the emotional resonance, urban chaos, and musical richness of its predecessor, elements that are still remembered by fans more than a decade later.
Speaking at the song launch, Fatima opened up about how she felt connected to the original film's music. She said, 'When Dada (Anurag Basu) and Pritam collaborate, the magic that they create is unmatched. I was very young at the time, but every time I fell in love or had my heart broken, I turned to the songs from Life in a… Metro. I've written so many letters while listening to those songs. 'This new album captures the same emotional depth."
Besides this, Fatima also has a romantic drama Aap Jaisa Koi, with R Madhavan in her kitty.

Part toy, part fashion, the arrival of the viral Labubu was a long time in the making
HighlightsLabubu, a plush toy designed by artist and illustrator Kasing Lung, has become a viral sensation after its initial release in 2015, with growing popularity fueled by celebrity endorsements and social media trends. Pop Mart, the company behind Labubu, experienced a remarkable increase in revenue, with a 1,200% rise in plush toy sales contributing significantly to its overall revenue growth in 2024. The demand for Labubu has led to supply shortages, causing long lines and even altercations at stores, prompting Pop Mart to temporarily suspend in-store and blind box machine sales in the United Kingdom. Labubu, the plush toy from China's Pop Mart is a social media darling, but the toothy little monsters are far from an overnight success. Having appeared a decade ago, Labubus may have finally cemented their place in the collectible toy market for years to come. The Labubu, by artist and illustrator Kasing Lung , first appeared with pointed ears and pointy teeth, in three picture books inspired by Nordic mythology in 2015. In 2019 Lung struck a deal with Pop Mart, a company that caters to toy connoisseurs and influencers, to sell Labubu figurines. But it wasn't until Pop Mart started selling Labubu plush toys on key rings in 2023 that the toothy monsters suddenly seemed to be everywhere, including in the hands of Rihanna, Kim Kardashian and NBA star Dillon Brooks. K-pop singer Lisa of Blackpink began posting images of hers for her more than 100 million followers on Instagram and on TikTok, where Labubu pandemonium has broken out. There are 1.4 million # Labubu TikTok posts and counting, videos of fans unboxing them, showing styles inspired by them, and of course, Labubu cosplay. Fans have latched on to Labubu's mashup of play and fashion, making them accessories on handbags, backpacks and belts, or hanging them from car mirrors. "The character has evolved into a collectible and style symbol, resonating with fans who connect with its quirky aesthetic and unique backstory," Emily Brough, Popmart's head of IP licensing in the Americas, said. Labubu has been a bonanza for Pop Mart. Its revenue more than doubled in 2024 to 13.04 billion yuan ($1.81 billion), thanks in part to its elvish monster. Revenue from Pop Mart's plush toys soared more than 1,200% in 2024, nearly 22% of its overall revenue, according to the company's annual report. Aside from their ability to pique the interest of toy aficionados and fashionistas, Labubu latched on to the blind box phenomenon , where the purchaser doesn't know exactly which version of the plush toy they'll get. And Pop Mart made sure there is a Labubu for everyone, regardless of income. Most are priced in a wide rage between $20 and $300, with certain collaborations or limited editions priced higher, according to Brough. Unlike many toys, Labubu devotees include a large number of adults. Buyers ages 18 and over drove a year-over-year increase of more than $800 million in the U.S. toy market in 2024, according to market research firm Circana. Adult shoppers, mostly female, bought the toys for themselves. In 2025's first quarter, toy sales for those ages 18 and over rose 12% from the prior-year period. At $1.8 billion, adults also accounted for the highest spending among all age groups in the quarter. Like many retailers, Pop Mart is actively monitoring negotiations between the U.S. and just about every one of its trading partners as prices may be impacted. The situation with China is at the forefront, with President Donald Trump saying on Friday that the country "violated" an agreement with the United States on trade talks. Right now Pop Mart, whose products are manufactured across Asia, says that it is continuously scaling production and expanding distribution across its online shop, retail stores and blind box vending machines to meet increasing demand. Short supply has led to long lines at stores and at least one physical fight at a shopping center in the United Kingdom. Pop Mart said in an Instagram post late last month that it was temporarily suspending all in-store and blind box machine sales in the U.K. Peter Shipman, head of Europe, said in a Facebook post that the company is currently working on a new method to distribute toys to stores. Resellers have become problematic and many Labubu fans are still willing to pay exorbitant price markups. Kena Flynn was at The Grove shopping center in Los Angeles recently when she stumbled upon some Labubus being sold at a kiosk. Flynn said in a TikTok on Sunday that the prices were "really bad," but her boyfriend bought two anyway. "At a certain point, you can't buy them," Flynn said in her video. "I just want a Labubu and I cannot buy one from Pop Mart, so here we are." Looking to keep up with the overwhelming demand, Pop Mart says it's on track for 50 more retail locations in the U.S. by the end of the year. That'll give shoppers more chances to hunt for Labubus, as Pop Mart says it's planning multiple new Labubu releases tied to seasonal moments and holidays throughout the rest of the year.
