Aditya Roy Kapur's Current Mood Is All About Slow Refs And Studio Time In London
Last Updated: Aditya Roy Kapur shares a glimpse into his current creative zone — a London studio, slow playlists, and prep for Metro In Dino, his upcoming musical with Anurag Basu. Metro In Dino actor Aditya Roy Kapur seems to be in no rush — creatively speaking. In his latest Instagram Story, the actor offered fans a quiet, cinematic glimpse into his current mood, and it looks like his vibe is all about slow rhythms, sonic exploration and a bit of self-reflection — all in London. The photo, taken in a dimly lit, aesthetically moody studio, shows a cluttered yet comforting workspace. At the centre is a desktop screen open to a Spotify playlist aptly titled 'Aditya Slow Refs' — suggesting a handpicked curation of reference tracks that are either inspiring him, calming him down, or perhaps, helping shape his latest project. There's also a pair of professional headphones, a Richer Sounds mug, and a mixing console on the desk, setting the scene for serious sound work. A large screen in the background beams serene animated visuals of a coastal landscape, adding to the meditative vibe. The location tag reads: London, United Kingdom. This snapshot comes at a time when Aditya is gearing up for the release of Metro In Dino, his second outing with director Anurag Basu after Ludo. Speaking about the collaboration, Aditya had recently shared, 'With Dada, everything and every day is a discovery, every day is a fun challenge. It is unpredictable, you don't know what new idea he is gonna throw your way and that's the most fun part of the process." He also opened up about the musical nature of the film, revealing how the format challenged him in unexpected ways. 'I think with this project there is a musical element to it, one is trying to blend in music into the scene, in and out of the scene… to go from talking into singing and then back to talking. That was challenging but also rewarding," he said. Backed by a stellar cast including Sara Ali Khan, Konkona Sen Sharma, Pankaj Tripathi, Neena Gupta, and others, Metro In Dino also reunites Anurag Basu with composer Pritam — their first collaboration since Ludo. The film takes its title from the song In Dino featured in Life in a… Metro and is set for release on 4 July 2025. First Published:

‘Best gossip buddy': Sanjana Ganesan's banter about life with Jasprit Bumrah wins hearts on the Internet
Banter between couples – celebrity or not – can make for some of the most charming, relatable content. In a recent podcast appearance, sports journalist and cricket anchor Sanjana Ganesan offered a candid look into her life with cricketer husband Jasprit Bumrah, and the Internet is loving it. Speaking on the podcast Moments of Silence hosted by Instagram influencers Sakshi Shivdasani and Naina Bhan, Ganesan shared how Bumrah is her 'best gossip buddy'. The two, she said, love lounging at home watching Netflix, indulging in chocolates, and catching up on work gossip. The now-viral clip also revealed a fun behind-the-scenes moment from their professional lives. Ganesan, who has interviewed Bumrah during matches, recalled how he often tries to throw her off by winking or smiling during serious segments. 'I try to stay focused and in journalist mode, but he knows exactly how to break that,' she said, laughing. The clip was posted on the podcast's Instagram page, @momentofsilencepod, with the caption, ''Interviewed a true inspiration this week — she's got it all (except your fav cricketer's phone number)! Stream now on Spotify!' The video has amassed 685K views and 42.5K likes on the platform. A post shared by Moment of Silence (@momentofsilencepod) Reacting to the video, a user commented, 'You carry strength with such grace, Sanjana di. Your poise, confidence, and calm presence are truly inspiring. Women like you redefine elegance.' Another user wrote, 'By far THE BEST EPISODE! Love how you highlighted her success and career without making it just about the husband. I knew I was a problem when I got excited thinking all the questions are going to be around cricket and 'the husband'.' One Instagram user said, 'Sanjana you are looking so beautiful.' However, not all feedback was positive. One user criticised the interviewers, saying, 'This was the best guest you had. I love you guys, but this was not your finest moment. Good questions were not put and you were not well prepared.' In the episode, Ganesan also touched upon her Miss India journey, college life, and thoughts on motherhood.
