Anurag Basu directed Metro In Dino’s trailer was released in Mumbai on Wednesday. At the film’s grand trailer launch event in Mumbai, the actors opened up about the lessons they have learnt from love. Aditya Roy Kapur shared his take on terms used to describe relationships, and Sara Ali Khan also shared that she does not believe in things like ‘situationships.’
Aditya and Sara shared their take on terms like situationship, benching, breadcrumbing. Aditya said, “I don’t even understand what the term situationship means, I am old school like that.” Sara added, “To each their own, but I don’t believe in situationship or any others.” Aditya also spoke on red flags and green flags in a relationship and said, “For me, a red flag would be someone who has gotten a prison record. If they land up in your hall with suitcases, it might be a problem. And someone being kind is a green flag for me. That is important because if you are planning to see someone for a long time and end up being in all kinds of situations, but if they are kind its a green flag.”
Fatima Sana Shaikh joked and told SCREEN, “Bohot dard diye hai pyaar ne. (Love has given too much pain.)” Konkona Sensharma added, “You have to be prepared for an element of risk. Life is uncertain, you have to embrace it. It’s just like the box office.” Sara Ali Khan added, “Sometimes, I struggle with going with flow, and like Konkona ma’am said, you have to just go in blind and hope for the best.” Sharing her take on love, Neena Gupta added, “I have grown quite old, still I don’t seem to know what love is. The only kind of love I know is between a parent and child.”
Director Anurag Basu remembered late actor Irrfan Khan and singer KK during the event. He said, “The whole film is, in fact, a tribute to both KK and Irrfan. We all miss them. I was just telling Bhushanji today that it was KK who beautifully complimented Pritam’s compositions. KK has sung in all my movies, so obviously I miss him.”
Metro In Dino also stars Pankaj Tripathi, Anupam Kher, and Ali Fazal in lead roles. The film is slated to release on July 4.
