Filmmaker Anurag Basu to complete trilogy with ‘Metro… In Dino
Published on

Zamaana Lage, the first song from ‘Metro...In Dino’ (Metro… These Days), introduced audiences to a world of modern love and relationships that is as vibrant as it is familiar.

After ‘Life in a… Metro’ and ‘Ludo’, ‘Metro… In Dino’ is the final chapter of Anurag Basu’s trilogy of hyperlinked cinema. Backed by producer Bhushan Kumar, the film weaves together a colourful, melody-soaked narrative of stories that reintroduces us to life in the metropolitan cities of India.

Zamaana Lage sees the return of the magical collaboration between composer Pritam and Anurag Basu, a duo known for creating chartbusters that linger long after the credits roll. This soulful track is brought to life by the evocative vocals of Arijit Singh and Shashwat Singh, who lend emotional depth and modern appeal to the song.

Built around Indian poet Qaisar Ul Jafri’s poignant line Tumhaare sheher ka mausam bada suhana lage, Zamaana Lage brings the timeless ghazal form into a modern soundscape for a new generation of listeners. With additional lyrics contributed by Sandeep Shrivastava, further enriching the composition.

Pritam Chakraborty shares: “With Qaisar Ul Jafri’s timeless poetry, we wanted to revive the ghazal as a form — not as nostalgia, but as something emotionally alive and relevant today, and bring it into the mainstream. With its rich history and timeless depth, we felt it doesn’t always have to live in a classical soundscape.

“A ghazal can be pop — it can be modern in sound and structure, while still holding on to its poetic soul. That’s what we’ve tried to do with this song: reimagine the ghazal for today’s generation.”

In a world driven by speed and instant gratification, Zamaana Lage is a rare pause, a poetic moment that bridges generations.
