“Anurag Basu is a magician of emotions”: Anupam Kher on Basu’s directorial style in ‘Metro...इन दिनों’

MUMBAI: One of the most eagerly awaited movies, Metro...इन दिनों, produced by Bhushan Kumar and Anurag Basu, after ‘Life in a… Metro’ and ‘Ludo’, director Anurag Basu returns with the final chapter of his hyperlinked trilogy’. Delving into the complex and modern relationships, the latest film promises a heart-stirring exploration of love, heartbreak, and human connection. Celebrated veteran actor Anupam Kher, known for bringing depth and honesty to every role, praises visionary Director Anurag Basu after working with him on the upcoming film. Alongside Anupam Kher, the film also features Aditya Roy Kapur, Sara Ali Khan, Ali Fazal, Fatima Sana Shaikh, Pankaj Tripathi, Konkona Sen Sharma, and Neena Gupta.

Praising Anurag Basu’s high emotional quotient, Anupam Kher said, “Anurag Basu is a magician of emotions. There are no tricks involved but the emotions can go from crying to smiling, smiling to laughter and he does it effortlessly.”

Adding to the same, the actor shared his experience of working with Basu Da, saying, “Anurag is effortless  when it comes to conveying what he wants from his actors. He uses the right emotions to convey what he wants and does not come across as a Director who is impressing the actor by letting them know how much he does know about his art. He trusts his actor and that is the biggest thing an actor is asking for.”

With strong emotions, a powerful ensemble cast, Anurag Basu’s unique storytelling complemented by Pritam’s music, Metro...इन दिनों is anticipated to be one of the biggest films of the year.

The recently launched trailer of ‘Metro...In Dino’ has received a positive response from audiences and the film seeks to offer audiences a personal connection to stories that feel both intimate and universal.
