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.
