‘Metro… In Dino’ received positive reviews, and that should have given it a better push at the ticket window. However, it remains to be seen how it fares on its first Monday to determine its overall traction in theatres.
The film features an ensemble cast of performance-oriented actors. It stars Anupam Kher-Neena Gupta, Pankaj Tripathi- Konkona Sensharma, Ali Fazal-Fatima Sana Shaikh, and Sara Ali Khan-Aditya Roy Kapoor. The music of the film, which is already climbing the charts, weaves the film into a true-blue musical – Anurag Basu’s another experimental filmmaking style, which finally seems to have impressed the audience.
The film is being called a perfect monsoon romantic entertainer.IndiaToday.in gave four starsto the film in its review. A part of the review read, “The beauty of ‘Metro… In Dino’ lies in its setting. Basu doesn’t just tell stories – he stages emotions. Rain drizzles like a soundtrack. Cities breathe in the background. Love unfurls at a bus stop, on a footpath, under a dim streetlight. The mundanity of these locations is what makes them magical.”
