Metro In Dino Box Office Collection Day 2: Filmmaker Anurag Basu's ensemble film Metro... In Dino witnessed over 50% growth at the box office on Saturday. After a slow start on its opening day, the film has more than doubled its collections, showing promising signs.
According to the early estimates of industry tracker Sacnilk, Metro In Dino earned around ₹ 6 crore on day 2 at the box office.
The website reported about 71.43% growth in business. With this, the total business made by the film is ₹ 9.5 crore. The film will cross ₹ 10 crore most likely.
Metro... In Dino also witnessed an increase in footfall owing to the weekend. It had an overall 32.20% occupancy on Saturday among Hindi audience.
The occupancy was as follows:
Delhi NCR held the maximum number of screenings for the Anurag Basu film, along with the highest occupancy of all regions. Following closely is the Bollywood capital, Mumbai. Pune and Bengaluru also did well among other markets across India.
Metro In Dino is the spiritual sequel of Anurag Basu's hit, Life In A Metro. The new installment, featuring fresh stories in the familiar format, stars Anupam Kher, Neena Gupta, Pankaj Tripathi, Konkona Sen Sharma, Aditya Roy Kapur, and Sara Ali Khan in the lead roles.
The film is racing against Kajol's Maa, Aamir Khan's Sitaare Zameen Par, Brad Pitt's F1 and Scarlett Johansson's Jurassic World: Rebirth at the box office.
Talking about the film, Konkona Sen Sharma told Live Mint, "Different people will be able to relate to different aspects of love. A 40-year-old with a child will be able to relate to me and Pankaj Tripathi's story. Someone who is in their 20s will be able to relate to Sara (Ali Khan) and Aditya (Roy Kapur). It's not really that there's a moral or message to love; it's just relatability. It's just life showing we all go through this; you are not alone.'
According to a report by Pinkvilla, Metro In Dino is made on a budget of ₹ 100 crore. Reportedly, ₹ 85 crore was spent on production and ₹ 15 crore on advertising. However, initial plan was to spend ₹ 65 crore but went ₹ 20 crore over budget, the publication claimed.

‘Slow-paced life rooted in nature, relationships need of the hour'

Lucknow: In an age defined by speed, digital overload, and social disconnection, a thoughtful gathering at the Police Officers' Mess on Sapru Marg offered a rare pause — a chance to reflect on the timeless relevance of slow living and ancient wisdom. Bringing together around a hundred thinkers, writers, civil servants, and community leaders, the session explored the value of traditional knowledge systems and the joys of a simpler life. Hosted by former DG, CRPF, AP Maheshwari, the event was attended by social welfare minister (independent charge) Asim Arun, historian Ravi Bhatt, senior journalist Naveen Joshi, Metaphor LitFest director Kanak Rekha Chauhan, former IAF officer Air Marshal Amit Tiwari, Dr Sandeep Kapoor, Prabha Srivastava, and Captain Paritosh Chauhan. Minister Asim Arun advocated blending of progressive old values with modern democratic tools like social media. Bhatt highlighted the importance of meaningful usage over material possession. Maheshwari introduced the concept of 'manthar gati' — the slow rhythm of life — advocating for a lifestyle grounded in nature, deep relationships, and intentional living. Highlighting the power of memory and value inheritance, Padma Shri Vidya Bindu Singh spoke about how mundane objects — a simple meal, a clay pot, or a piece of cloth — carry profound emotional significance. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 5 Books Warren Buffett Wants You to Read In 2025 Blinkist: Warren Buffett's Reading List Undo She lamented how the younger generation, overwhelmed by speed and screens, often misses the oral traditions and emotional legacy handed down through generations. Naveen Joshi echoed this sentiment, saying, "There was a way of life back then — one of simplicity, laughter, anger, love, and most importantly, acceptance. My father always said that one should seek forgiveness and learn to forgive. That became a guiding principle for us." Kanak Rekha Chauhan remembered the everyday joys that once defined domestic life — shared meals, family conversations, and cooperative tasks. Drawing from the teachings of saints like Kabir, Meera, and Tulsidas, the session gave the message that true fulfilment comes not from speed but from stillness, compassion, and values that span generations. The event also featured traditional Rajasthani cuisine — particularly 'ker sangri' — which underscored the theme of reconnecting with cultural roots. The occasion marked the launch of 'The Kishangarh Boy', co-authored by AP Maheshwari and Vinita Chandak, along with its Hindi counterpart 'Teen Mein Na Terah Mein'.

Box Office: Jurassic World: Rebirth hits the bullseye in India; Scarlett Johansson led dinosaur saga collects Rs 35.25 crore in 3 days

The Scarlett Johansson led Jurassic World: Rebirth has scored very good results at the box office in its opening weekend, as the dinosaur saga has collected Rs 35.25 crore in 3 days in India. The action adventure opened at Rs 8.25 crore on Friday, followed by a jump to Rs 12.50 crore on Saturday, and another spike to Rs 14.50 crore on Sunday. One must note that, the collections reported are not including 3D charges, and if they are also accounted for, the weekend total will fall in the range of Rs 38.75 crore. The film has fared well all across the board – be it the multiplexes or the single screens – and is headed to emerge a clean hit at the Indian box office. These numbers have come despite a no-release on IMAX, and heavy competition in India from films like F1, Metro In Dino, and Sitaare Zameen Par among others. The competition had also hit the showcasing of Jurassic World in India, but the film saw a spike in showcasing over the weekend based on public demand. Jurassic World would be looking to hold around the Rs 5 crore mark on Monday, and from there aim at a first week in the North of Rs 50 crore. There will be a surge in business again over the second weekend, and it is headed for a rather healthy theatrical run in India. The last Jurassic World film had collected around the Rs 60 crore mark in India, and the latest installment will zoom past the number with ease. The Scarlett Johansson film will join Final Destination: Bloodlines, Mission Impossible 8 and F1 as the successes from Hollywood in India this year. Jurassic World: Rebirth Day Wise Box Office Collections Friday: Rs 8.25 crore Saturday: Rs 12.50 crore Sunday: Rs 14.50 crore Total: Rs 35.25 crore Stay tuned to Pinkvilla for more updates! Note: The above numbers are reported excluding 3D charges to align with the reporting standards of other films. It needs to be said that including 3D charges is actually the correct way to report and in future, all films could be corrected by including those charges but for now, these charges are excluded.

Indian Gen Zs Are Throwing Fake Weddings For Fun, Here's All About This OTT Party Trend

Last Updated: The Gen Z has moved away from the done and overdone cliche club nights. The hottest party trend they have started instead is a fake wedding party. Forget club nights and sundowner parties – the Gen Z in India has a knack for doing 'hatke' things, and this latest party trend is yet another proof. Gen Z has found a new way to party, and it's as extra as it is oddly wholesome. Welcome to the era of fake weddings. It's the newest trend where groups of friends throw a full-blown shaadi celebration, minus the actual bride and groom. What started as a quirky trend abroad has now found its glittering Indian avatar. Think: mandap setups, baraat-style entries, choreographed sangeet performances, wedding invites, a fake pandit, and yes, even a dhol wala for dramatic effect. At the heart of it is a simple idea: everyone loves the joy of Indian weddings, so why wait for someone to get married? A Wedding Without the Drama For Gen Z, who grew up watching grand Bollywood weddings and endless shaadi reels on Instagram, the fake wedding trend offers a chance to celebrate without the stress, family politics, or actual lifelong commitment. The idea is to dress up in your lehengas and sherwanis, dance your heart out, toast to love, and party like it's your own wedding (just without the future in-laws). What Is The Vibe? Fake weddings are over-the-top, deeply ironic, and designed for the 'Gram. You'll spot hashtags like #NotActuallyMarried and #ShaadiForTheVibe under Reels showing everything from haldi moments in Airbnb gardens to full buffet spreads featuring chaat counters and mocktails. What started as a fun party trend among Gen Z has now found many takers. Event management companies and even bars are hosting fake wedding parties with paid entry and food. In a world where traditional milestones are being delayed or redefined, this trend gives young people a way to embrace celebration on their own terms. It's campy, chaotic, and community-driven: exactly what Gen Z does best. So, if you see someone in a sherwani doing bhangra at a farmhouse on the outskirts of your city or in a bar with no actual bride in sight, don't be confused. It's probably just another Saturday night in Gen Z style. First Published: July 06, 2025, 17:50 IST
