Metro... In Dino is considered a spiritual successor to Basu's 2007 cult classic Life in a... Metro, which featured the late Irrfan Khan and explored the complex emotional lives of urban dwellers. The original film opened to ₹0.80 crore on its first day and gradually garnered a loyal following over the years.

High court reserves order on Kangana Ranaut's tweet drama
Bathinda: After almost three years of legal back-and-forth, the Punjab and Haryana high court has reserved its verdict on a petition filed by Hindi cinema actor-turned-MP Kangana Ranaut, who is challenging a defamation case stemming from her controversial tweet during the year 2020-21 farmer protests. A high court bench reserved the order on July 3 after concluding arguments in the matter. Ranaut, now an MP from Mandi in Himachal Pradesh, had filed the petition to quash summons issued by a Bathinda court in 2022 under sections 499 and 500 of the Indian Penal Code (IPC). The defamation complaint was filed by Mahinder Kau (73) r of Bahadurgarh Jandian village in Bathinda district, alleging that Ranaut had defamed her in a tweet by identifying her wrongly as Bilkis Bano of Shaheen Bagh fame and implying that such women could be hired to protest for Rs 100. The tweet, which was later deleted, targeted Mahinder Kaur during her participation in the farmers' agitation at Delhi's borders. On Feb 22, 2022, Bathinda judicial magistrate Tanvi Gupta issued initial summons for Ranaut to appear on April 19, 2022. When she did not respond, fresh summons were issued for July 14, 2022, to be delivered via Bathinda SSP. Before the hearing, Ranaut moved the high court, arguing that the trial court had misapplied Section 202 of the Code of Criminal Procedure. Her legal team also claimed she had merely retweeted content posted originally by one "Adhivakta Gautam Yadav", who was not named as an accused in the complaint — raising questions about the complainant's intent. Mahinder Kaur's counsel, Raghbir Singh Behniwal, said the trial court had set July 11 as the next hearing date pending the high court's ruling.

The morning shows saw 11.65 per cent footfall, while afternoon shows registered 30.95 per cent footfall. The evening shows had 38.95 per cent footfall. The romantic film was released on July 4. Life in a Metro, which was released in 2007, was a sleeper hit. It has opened at just ₹80 lakh upon release. However, it built on its word of mouth to end up with a lifetime domestic collection of over ₹24 crore. About Metro in Dino With music composed by Pritam, this film is the spiritual sequel to Anurag Basu's 2007 hit Life... In A Metro, which starred Irrfan. Notably, Konkona Sensharma is the only lead from the original cast to reprise her role in the sequel. Sticking to the concept from the first part, the film follows the lives of four couples as they navigate the highs and lows of love and commitment in different cities. The musical romantic drama is written and directed by Anurag Basu and produced by T-Series Films and Anurag Basu Productions. The film weaves together several stories of contemporary couples and features an ensemble cast, including Anupam Kher, Neena Gupta, Konkona Sen Sharma, Pankaj Tripathi, Aditya Roy Kapur, Sara Ali Khan, Ali Fazal, and Fatima Sana Shaikh. The film opened to a positive response from critics. According to a review by Hindustan Times, the film is a 'messy-yet-beautiful ode to modern-day romance, is elevated by Pritam's score'. 'The screenplay and story are by Basu, and there's something magical that he brings to the big screen. One of the most innovative filmmakers of our time, he has touched upon a plethora of subjects- from identity crisis, to loneliness, to infidelity (pronounced hilariously as 'infertility' by Pankaj Tripathi's character), to loss- and condensed them into a 162-minute film,' read the review.
