The two play a modern-day couple based in Delhi, and will film their segment in the capital. “It’s a happy slice-of-life story that Ali loved at the first narration. He has been keen to work with Anurag for a long time. The director roped in Fatima for the story, having collaborated with her on Ludo,” says a source from the creative team. The filmmaker, on his part, had often expressed his desire to make a sequel to his 2007 drama. “It was during the first lockdown in 2020 that he finally got the idea for another anthology. The story will have four segments, each story going on to be linked with one another in the end. Anurag had done a remarkable job of interweaving four different stories in Ludo. Metro…In Dino will have a similar flavour, but will be treated in a different style.”
