Metro In Dino
🎙️ Metro… In Dino – A Soul Sequel That Misses the Soul?Anurag Basu returns with Metro… In Dino, the spiritual sequel to Life in a… Metro, but does it land? In this episode, I break down why this film — despite a stellar cast of Pankaj Tripathi, Konkona Sen Sharma, Aditya Roy Kapoor, Fatima Sana Shaikh, and more — feels more like a missed opportunity. Too many songs, too little emotional depth, and some Jagga Jasoos-level chaos.Let’s talk about what worked, what didn’t, and why this film made me miss Irrfan and KK even more.
