Sara Ali Khan comments on the character ‘Chumki’ from Metro In Dino: “Her perspective is she has everything sorted out.”

Sara interprets Chumki as a concoction of chaos and vulnerability, a character who does not actively seek the limelight, but rather captures the viewer's affection through genuine authenticity. Chumki’s life journey showcases the theme of the unpredictability of life and the courage to embrace it. Her story illustrates the many contemporary struggles adolescents grapple with: the wish to be in command, the awe of the disintegration of plans, and the soothing poise of accepting the unknown. While commenting on the role, Sara stated, “Chumki believes she has it all figured out. But life has other plans! And ultimately, her attempt to go with the flow and follow her heart is what I resonate with. I find that inspiring.” Anurag Basu directed and penned the film.
