Anurag Basu’s Metro… In Dino has been delayed yet again, with reports suggesting a 2026 release.
Anurag Basu’s much-anticipated film Metro… In Dino seems to have hit yet another roadblock. Starring Aditya Roy Kapur, Sara Ali Khan, Anupam Kher, Neena Gupta, Pankaj Tripathi, Konkona Sensharma, Ali Fazal, and Fatima Sana Shaikh, the film was initially slated for a 2024 release but has faced repeated delays.
Now, with Basu shifting his focus to his next project starring Kartik Aaryan and Sreeleela, speculation is mounting that Metro… In Dino might not see the light of day until 2026, as per Times Of India report. The director’s upcoming romantic drama has been progressing swiftly, with its teaser already out and a Diwali 2025 release locked in. With the film set to clash with Ayushmann Khurrana and Rashmika Mandanna’s Thama, it has become clear that Basu has prioritized this project over the delayed anthology drama.
Produced by Bhushan Kumar, Metro… In Dino was initially announced as a spiritual successor to Life in a… Metro and was expected to explore modern relationships in urban India. However, persistent postponements have left fans uncertain about its fate.
Meanwhile, Bhushan Kumar continues to oversee an ambitious lineup for 2025 and 2026, which includes BORDER 2 featuring Sunny Deol, Varun Dhawan, Diljit Dosanjh, and Ahan Shetty; De De Pyaar De 2 with Ajay Devgn, Rakul Preet Singh, and R Madhavan; Dhamaal 4 starring Ajay Devgn; Spirit with Prabhas; and Tere Ishq Mein featuring Dhanush and Kriti Sanon.
While there is no official confirmation on Metro… In Dino’s new release date, industry chatter suggests that audiences may have to wait until 2026 to finally see Anurag Basu’s urban drama on the big screen.
