Kush JotwaniMETRO…IN DINO is the story of relationships and their complexities. Monty (Pankaj Tripathi) and Kajol (Konkona Sen Sharma) reside in Mumbai and have been married for nearly two decades. Their relationship might seem perfect from the outside, but they have differences, and as a result, they keep arguing all... the time. Intimacy is also missing in their life. Monty’s colleague suggests that he should download a dating app and initiate an extramarital affair. He believes that this would reignite the spark in his marriage. Monty puts the plan in motion, resulting in disastrous consequences. Kajol’s mother Shivani (Neena Gupta) lives in Pune with hubby Sanjeev (Saswata Chatterjee). Theirs is also a soul-less marriage, and she gets a chance to have some excitement in life when her college batch decides on a reunion in Kolkata. This means that she can reconnect with Parimal (Anupam Kher), her boyfriend in college. Kajol’s youngster Thumri aka Chumki (Sara Ali Khan) works in Delhi as an HR professional. She is in Bengaluru for work when she accidentally enters Parth’s (Aditya Roy Kapur) house, leading to issues with her fiancé, Anand (Kush Jotwani). Parth and his friend Shruti (Fatima Sana Shaikh) pretend to be a married couple and make it clear to Anand that there’s nothing between Parth and Chumki. Shruti lives in Bengaluru with her husband Akash (Ali Fazal). Shruti is craving to have a child, while Akash is craving to leave his corporate job and become a singer in films. Realizing that Akash is struggling with his job, she decides to opt for an abortion and shift to Delhi for better career prospects. Akash, meanwhile, lands in Mumbai and begins to struggle while trying his luck in the film industry. What happens next forms the rest of the film.
