Zamaana Lage song out: Netizens are in awe as makers drop first ‘magical' track from ‘Metro...In Dino'
Netizens were left in complete awe of the 'magical' first song from 'Metro...In Dino' – Zamaana Lage, and said that the track took them on a bittersweet ride of memories between the old gazal and its new rendition.
Zamaana Lage, the first track of the film's album, was released on Wednesday, May 28.
It combines Pritam Chakraborty's music and Arijit Singh-Shashwat Singh's vocals to craft a song derived from poet Qaisar Ul Jafri's evocative line, 'Tumhaare sheher ka mausam bada suhana lage.' Sandeep Shrivastava has penned additional lyrics.
Pritam said Zamaana Lage was an attempt to revive the ghazal on Jafri's timeless poetry in a non-nostalgic way that was emotionally alive and relevant today.
'With its rich history and timeless depth, we felt it doesn't always have to live in a classical soundscape. A ghazal can be pop -- it can be modern in sound and structure, while still holding on to its poetic soul. That's what we've tried to do with this song: reimagine the ghazal for today's generation,' he added.
Social media users said Zamaana Lage was 'mind-blowing' and lauded the Pritam-Arijit duo for the magic they create.
'Bhai yeh kya bana diya. Magical,' said a user.
'Anurag x Pritam = hearts. Terrific first track lands finally,' added another user.
'Es song ko bhulane me bhi shayad zamana large,' a user said.
An impressed fan said, 'What a song…Ek poorane se evergreen poetry ko itne pyaare gaane mein badal diya. Zamaana lage sunke aisa laga jaise apne dard ki awaaz mil gayi ho.'
'The melody is so enchanting; it's hard not to get lost in its beauty,' added another.
A user said, 'This song is just magical! Arijit's voice and Pritam's music are a perfect combo.'
'Zamaana Lage really touches the heart and feels so relatable. Listening on loop—absolutely loved it!' added another user.
'Arijit Singh's voice in Zamaana Lage is pure magic — soulful and deeply emotional. Every word he sings feels like it's coming straight from the heart,' said a fan.

'Not for money anymore': Why Pankaj Tripathi stepped away from spotlight
Pankaj Tripathi, widely regarded as one of the finest actors in Hindi cinema, has finally opened up about his low profile over the past year. While fans speculated about his absence from red carpets and public events, the actor – last seen in Criminal Justice: A Family Matter on JioCinema – revealed it wasn't due to controversy or setbacks. Instead, it was a personal and reflective journey that reignited his love for the craft of acting. Tripathi disclosed that he did not sign a single film in the previous year and took a one-year break from acting. The actor revealed that he took a deliberate pause and went on an introspective journey, even if he did not disclose it.

Pankaj Tripathi on his one-year break from acting Indian actor Pankaj Tripathi opened up in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter saying he took a year-long break from acting after the death of his father, which had a significant impact on him. He said, 'I took time off to work on myself and heal, physically and mentally,' he revealed. 'That's why I've lost weight. I work out for three hours a day, six days a week. I also travelled — trips that I've been putting off for a long time". This break was intended to help with both physical recovery and a break from the never-ending cycle of the entertainment business. Tripathi made the deliberate decision to avoid the limelight by saying, 'I kept telling everyone that I don't have time. But actually, that time was reserved for introspection.' Why did Pankaj Tripathi take a year-long break from acting? He stated, 'I'm at a point where I'm no longer working for the money. I need to do work that gives me something to look forward to,' he said. Reflecting on his past approach to work, he confessed, 'There was a time when I was counting days on projects, just waiting for them to end. And I thought — this can't be right. I love the profession so much. I've made so many sacrifices to get here, and if I'm spending my days just waiting for shoots to wrap, then something's wrong. That's why I took a break.' In August 2023, Pandit Banaras Tiwari, Pankaj Tripathi's father, passed away. He was 99 years old. In remembrance of his father, Pankaj Tripathi constructed a library at his village high school and dedicated his significant National Award victory to him after his passing.
