The song is composed by Pritam and brings back the creative collaboration between him and director Anurag Basu, known for crafting memorable musical narratives. The song features Arijit Singh and Shashwat Singh's vocals and draws inspiration from poet Qaisar Ul Jafri's evocative line, "Tumhaare sheher ka mausam bada suhana lage." Sandeep Shrivastava pens additional lyrics.

While talking about the song, music director Pritam Chakraborty added, "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."

The song teaser features an impressive cast: Anupam Kher, Pankaj Tripathi, Konkona Sen Sharma, Aditya Roy Kapur, Sara Ali Khan, Fatima Sana Shaikh, Ali Fazal, Neena Gupta and Saswata Chatterjee.

Gulshan Kumar and T-Series presents, in association with Anurag Basu Productions Pvt. Ltd., 'Metro In Dino'...' Directed by Anurag Basu, with music composed by Pritam, and produced by Bhushan Kumar, Krishan Kumar, Anurag Basu, and Taani Basu. The film is set to release on July 4, 2025. .

The teaser sounds amazing! Pritam-Arijit combo never disappoints. Basu's Metro series always had soulful music - remember "In Dino" from the first film? This seems like a worthy successor. Can't wait for the full song on 28th! 🤩

Love how they're modernizing ghazals! As someone who grew up listening to Jagjit Singh, it's heartwarming to see younger generations getting exposed to this beautiful art form through Bollywood. Hope the full song lives up to the teaser!

The cast looks stellar! But honestly, I'm more excited about Basu's storytelling than the music. His films always show urban relationships in such a raw, relatable way. July 2025 is too far away yaar!

Not impressed with the teaser tbh. Sounds like every other Pritam song these days. Basu's earlier films had more unique music. Hope the full song proves me wrong! #BringBackTheOldMagic

Shashwat Singh's voice is underrated! Good to see him getting big projects. The poetry reference is beautiful - reminds me of my college days when we used to discuss Urdu shayari. Basu-Pritam combo always delivers quality content.

The concept of hyperlinked stories is so interesting! Life in Metro was ahead of its time. Hope this final chapter does justice to the legacy. Also, Konkona Sen Sharma is ❤️ - she brings such depth to every role!
