Metro In Dino movie box office prediction: How much will Anurag Basu's Bollywood comeback earn on release date?
Metro In Dino will be released on July 4. It was earlier planned for November 29, 2024.
The film shares emotional stories of four modern-day couples, based in Mumbai, Delhi, Kolkata and Bengaluru. These stories connect later in the film. The film was shot in Kolkata and Delhi, with some scenes in Himachal Pradesh.
Konkona Sen Sharma returns from the original Life in a Metro. Other lead actors include Pankaj Tripathi, Aditya Roy Kapur, Fatima Sana Shaikh, Sara Ali Khan, Ali Fazal, Anupam Kher and Neena Gupta. Tripathi, Aditya and Fatima also featured in Ludo.
Metro In Dino is expected to earn around ₹ 10–12 crore on its first day, according to Koimoi. The movie will possibly beat Anurag Basu's earlier record set by Kites in 2010. The Hrithik Roshan starrer opened at ₹ 10.40 crore.
The Metro In Dino trailer was released on June 4, with positive reviews. So far, it has gained 27 million views and more than 20,000 comments.
'I want this one to work. Tired of politics, war... just give us some light moments and love on screen,' reacted one viewer.
Another viewer wrote, 'A proper Bollywood movie. Keeping my fingers crossed for this one. Please heal this industry.'
Metro In Dino cost ₹ 100 crore to make and promote, according to Pinkvilla. To be more specific, ₹ 85 crore was spent on production and ₹ 15 crore on advertising. It was originally planned at ₹ 65 crore but went ₹ 20 crore over budget, the publication added.
Director Anurag Basu is also the co-producer and has charged a small fee. Even before release, the film has already earned ₹ 70 crore through non-theatrical sources.
The Bollywood musical has earned ₹ 40 crore from Netflix and ₹ 15 crore from music rights. It is expected to fetch ₹ 15 crore from satellite rights, Pinkvilla added.
Typically, a movie needs to earn double its budget to recover its full cost and break even. This means the film still needs to earn ₹ 130 crore from global theatre collections. Even if the film does decently at the box office, that should not be a tough task.

'Metro… In Dino' box office collections day 1: Anurag Basu's film starring Aditya Roy Kapur, Sara Ali Khan and more off to a decent start, earns Rs 3.35 crore on Friday
The much-anticipated Anurag Basu film 'Metro… In Dino', starring Pankaj Tripathi , Aditya Roy Kapur, Sara Ali Khan , Fatima Ali Sheikh, and others, opened in cinemas on Friday, July 4, and has reported a respectable start. Metro…In Dino Movie Review According to early estimates by Sacnilk, the film collected ₹3.35 crore on its opening day at the domestic box office. Evening shows added to day 1 numbers While the film had a modest turnout in morning and afternoon shows, it picked up a significant pace by evening and night. The Hindi-language drama recorded an overall occupancy of 17.99% on its first day, with night shows leading the surge at 31.09%. Evening shows contributed strongly as well, helping the film close the day with decent figures for a non-action, dialogue-driven ensemble film. The film seems to be connecting with urban audiences, especially those in the metro cities who are drawn to slice-of-life narratives. The cast, which includes Sara Ali Khan, Pankaj Tripathi, Konkona Sen Sharma , and Ali Fazal, adds to its multi-generational appeal. Metro Cities Respond Well Mumbai and the National Capital Region showed healthy numbers, with occupancy crossing 19% in both areas. Pune performed slightly better, clocking in at 20%, while Bengaluru led the chart with an impressive 36% average occupancy across shows—especially strong during evening and night slots. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Play this game for 3 minutes, if you own a mouse Undo The film played on over 1,200 screens nationwide, with the majority of footfall coming from multiplexes in Tier 1 cities. The music, composed by Pritam, has also played a key role in attracting footfall, especially with the title track already trending. What's next? The real test for 'Metro… In Dino' begins now. While the Day 1 number is solid for its genre, sustained growth over the weekend will determine its box office trajectory. With positive word-of-mouth and minimal competition this week, the film stands a fair chance to grow. ETimes review for the film reads, "Despite being largely pleasant, some tracks don't quite add up, feel uneven and don't know where to end. After an engaging build up, the second half feels a tad stretched. You also wish the story scratched the surface a little more, especially for Konkona-Neena Gupta track, where the actors have the potential and gravitas to dig deeper. There has been a scarcity of love stories in Bollywood and Metro In Dino, elevated by some fine performances, fills that gap perfectly. It is a breezy, intimate watch tailor-made for a rainy day."
