Metro…In Dino OTT Release: Where to watch Aditya Roy Kapur and Sara Ali Khan's romantic film after theatres
Metro…In Dino OTT Release: This upcoming saga is one of those rare films that already feels close to the heart even before its release. Directed by Anurag Basu, the movie brings back the emotion and chaos of city life that he captured beautifully in Life in a... Metro back in 2007. This isn't a direct sequel, but it's definitely cut from the same cloth - new stories, new characters, same restless city, and the same questions about love, loneliness, and how people find or lose each other in the middle of all that noise. Where to watch Metro…In Dino on OTT? Netflix has acquired the streaming rights to Metro…In Dino and will be streaming it after the film's theatrical run concludes. The cast is packed with solid talent: Aditya Roy Kapur, Sara Ali Khan, Konkona Sen Sharma, Pankaj Tripathi, Neena Gupta, Anupam Kher, Fatima Sana Shaikh, and Ali Fazal. Each one plays a different kind of city dweller, and their stories are about those moments where you meet someone unexpected in the middle of your routine and everything changes. Not fairy tales, but they're the kind of stories that make you go, 'Yeh toh mere saath bhi hua tha,' or 'Main bhi aisa hi feel karta hoon.' That's the beauty of a film like this: it feels personal. Anurag Basu has always been a filmmaker who sees beauty in a mess. He lets you sit in it, breathe it, and slowly feel what the characters are going through. In Metro… In Dino, he seems to be doing exactly that again. He's taking a bunch of stories and connecting them loosely through the city, most likely Mumbai, just like he did earlier. And then there's the music. You can't talk about Metro… In Dino, without talking about Pritam. He gave us timeless songs in the 2007 film, songs that still hit hard today. This time, too, he's back as the music director, and the title of the film is actually taken from the hit song 'In Dino' from the original. Metro…In Dino is produced by T-Series and Anurag Basu Productions. The chemistry between the characters is another thing to look forward to. Aditya Roy Kapur and Sara Ali Khan are likely playing a younger couple, maybe figuring out if what they have is love or just confusion. Konkona Sen Sharma and Pankaj Tripathi might be the quieter ones, dealing with more mature emotions, regret, maybe even an old love returning. Neena Gupta and Anupam Kher could be showing us that love doesn't end with age. Metro… In Dino, which is releasing on 4th July, 2025, feels like a letter from the city. Messy, emotional, a little broken, but full of heart. And that's exactly why it's worth waiting for.

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 ' 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. Dino is the final chapter of Anurag Basu's trilogy of hyperlinked cinema after Life in a... Metro and Ludo. Backed by producer Bhushan Kumar, the film introduces a world of modern love and relationships. The movie features a stellar cast including Anupam Kher, Pankaj Tripathi, Konkona Sen Sharma, Aditya Roy Kapur, Sara Ali Khan, Fatima Sana Shaikh, Ali Fazal, Neena Gupta and Saswata Chatterjee. The film is set to release on July 4.
