Anurag Basu + Pritam’s music = Cinematic magic”The Times of India Review‘Metro… In Dino’ has also been reviewed by The Times of India, who compared it closely to ‘Life in a… Metro’. Their review reads “Anurag Basu’s 2007 ensemble film ‘Life in a Metro’ was an ode to love and survival in Mumbai. The film comprised great actors, riveting stories while letting Mumbai rain be the main character. 18 years later, he takes his fascination for changing relationship dynamics and perception of love in the digital age a notch ahead.”It further mentions, “The spiritual sequel expands its story from Mumbai to other metropolises of the country – Pune, Bengaluru, Delhi and Kolkata. More cities come with more everything — chaos, characters, songs and a massive duration of 2 hours, 42 minutes. Barring a few loose ends, Basu pulls it off even when it looks like he’s winging it. His conversational storytelling keeps things light and breezy even in times of sorrow and distress. Have more options ruined everlasting romance? Has excess information and availability killed the mystery around love? Basu tries to address these issues while ensuring humour finds its way through the loss and longing.”,
