Suspense crime, Digital Desk : Emotions ran high as actress Konkona Sen Sharma fondly remembered her late co-star, the acclaimed Irrfan Khan, during the song launch event for the upcoming film "Metro... In Dino." The event, marking the release of the track "O Meri Jaan" featuring Sara Ali Khan and Aditya Roy Kapur, became a poignant moment of reflection for Sen Sharma.
The upcoming film, directed by Anurag Basu with music by Pritam, is seen as a spiritual successor or anthology installment related to the 2007 hit "Life in a... Metro." That beloved film famously featured Konkona Sen Sharma and Irrfan Khan as an endearing and critically lauded on-screen pair, whose chemistry captivated audiences. Their storyline was a standout, making her reminiscence particularly touching for fans and attendees.
Speaking at the launch, Konkona shared her nostalgic feelings, emphasizing how deeply Irrfan is missed by everyone in the film fraternity and by his admirers. She recalled their "organic" and "raw" on-screen chemistry from the original "Metro," a partnership that resonated strongly and remains a cherished part of modern Indian cinema. She expressed that Irrfan's absence is keenly felt, especially when revisiting a world thematically linked to their shared success.
"Metro... In Dino" boasts an impressive ensemble cast including Pankaj Tripathi, Ali Fazal, Fatima Sana Shaikh, Anupam Kher, Neena Gupta, and Kay Kay Menon, alongside Sara Ali Khan and Aditya Roy Kapur. Anurag Basu returns to direct, with Pritam once again composing the music, aiming to recapture the slice-of-life magic and evocative soundtrack that characterized their previous collaboration.
The song launch thus served not only as a promotion for the new film but also as a heartfelt tribute, underscoring the enduring legacy of Irrfan Khan and the special cinematic bond he shared with Konkona Sen Sharma.
