Metro.... In Dino

I personally feel this should have never been a correlation of life in a metro. That movie meant so much as it was a new rendition of what small intertwined relationships were fading into a full bloom rose. The songs the actors the story line.... Man!!!! It was the perfect flim that year.

Now they remove contrasting to that flim.

No qualms no regret but the vibe is not vibing, I guess a flim of that power calibre should just be left as it is.... Untouched.

Irfan Sir thank you for that fantastic experience in that movie...and may you rest in peace. The movie metro in dino is a good movie but it's nothing great to what I experienced the first movie ( k.k menon's ) gave me.

Truly relatable and insightful look into diverse married lives. The film skillfully presents various relationship scenarios, making its content highly resonant.

The music was outstanding, featuring beautifully crafted songs with exceptionally good lyrics. While some dialogues transitioned into songs (reminiscent of Jagga Jasoos), the overall musical brilliance significantly enhanced the experience. The movie effectively covers a broad spectrum of marital themes, punctuated by well-placed sprinkles of humor.

Performances were generally strong: Ali Fazal's character was deeply affecting as a broken man, and Fatima Sana Shaikh compellingly portrayed her fight for career, love, and child. Pankaj Tripathi was, as always, phenomenal, alongside Anupam Kher's stressed character and Neena Gupta's perfect portrayal. Konkona's role felt a bit stretched, and Sara Ali Khan was average, while Aditya Roy Kapur's character leaned a bit too "filmy."

Despite minor issues, this segment of "Metro In Dino" is a great movie and definitely warrants a one-time watch for its heart and relatability.

Metro In Dino is a soulful and heartwarming tale of modern relationships, brought alive by Anurag Basu's sensitive direction and a stellar ensemble cast. Pankaj Tripathi, Sara Ali Khan, Aditya Roy Kapur and Konkona Sen Sharma deliver standout performances adding depth to their layered characters. Pritam's music is beautifully woven into the narrative with tracks that truly enhance the emotional beats. While most story arcs resonate deeply but the Ali Fazal-Fatima Sana Shaikh subplot feels slightly underdeveloped and rushed. Still the film offers a moving, relatable experience that captures the chaos and beauty of love in today's urban world.

Did not expect to be hit in the feels like this. Metro... In Dino is that rare film that looks chill on the outside but lowkey punches you in the gut when you're least ready. A mature, layered, emotionally chaotic ride through what love, regret, and timing really mean in today's world.

Anurag Basu is in full control here. The way he juggles multiple stories, characters, moods-it's effortless. The man just gets human complexity. No melodrama, no preachy nonsense-just real people, real pain, and beautifully messy connections.

Konkona Sen Sharma & Pankaj Tripathi are just masterclasses on screen. Quiet brilliance. The rest of the cast also do a brilliant job except for Sara. She for the life of her just cannot act.

Pritam's music is soul touching, haunting, and so well placed that it hurts. It might be one of his most important works. Every note blends effortlessly with the screenplay.

This film isn't trying to impress. It's just honest-and that's what makes it hit. Relationships are messy, people are flawed, and life doesn't always come with closure.

The movie is good in parts only.

But why have the makers portrayed only women-centric sub-stories? Why only women are being shown at the receiving end in a relationship?

Are there no unhappy or dissatisfied men out there?

A more balanced approach would have been to include at least one relationship where the man is the one who needs validation.

The only sub-plot making proper sense is that of Aditya Roy Kapoor and Sara Ali Khan. Rest all are extremely lopsided and sometimes over the top too.

Was hoping to see the magic of 'Life in a Metro' being repeated, but, that movie was at another level.

This one is a one time watch.
