Metro In Dino actor unveils Anurag Basu's unique casting method
Rohan Gurbaxani, who's part of the upcoming film Metro In Dino, shared that director Anurag Basu doesn't do auditions the usual way.
Instead, Basu offered him the role over a FaceTime call, simply telling him the story and making it feel "very organic and personal."
'Trust me, I know my process...': Basu told Gurbaxani
Gurbaxani recalled Basu reassuring him: "Trust me, I know my process is a little different. It's a little nerve-wracking, but we will make something great."
Metro In Dino is a spiritual sequel to Life In A Metro and weaves together love stories set in various cities.
The film hits theaters on July 4
The movie features stars like Aditya Roy Kapur, Sara Ali Khan, Pankaj Tripathi, and Konkona Sen Sharma. It hits theaters on July 4, 2025.
Compared to some old-school methods—like actors quitting films over unclear WhatsApp messages—Basu's hands-on style stands out as refreshingly personal.
