METRO - this word instantly conjures up images of a concrete jungle, crowded streets, congested roads, hectic pace where people are constantly striving to achieve their ends at any cost, chasing their dreams and trying to fulfill them even if they have to sacrifice their relationships and have hardly any time for emotions or sentiments.

This is what director Anurag Basu's movie Metro, which is running to full house in the city, depicts. GITA HARI finds out from telestars how much water does this notion holds.

HITEN TEJWANI :
I don't agree with what is being portrayed in the movie though I haven't seen the movie. Some overambitious people may behave badly with their spouses or trample upon relationships. Otherwise, generally everyone is caring and sensitive towards their family and relationships.

What if I am offered to work elsewhere at an exorbitant price? I will definitely accept the offer but I will make sure that my wife is by my side.

JAYATI BHATIA :
I have not seen the film yet. It's my friend Anurag Basu's film and it's quite true. I have been in Mumbai for the past 11 years and even if you want to take time out for family, there is none, at least in the industry which I am associated with. There is no place for relationships. From Sunday to Saturday, everyday is the same - hectic shooting hours And erratic schedules.

My husband does get upset because when he wants to say something to me, I have just come after doing an 18-hour shift and am too tired to lend him an ear. One has to sacrifice if one has to survive in this world.

RONIT ROY :
Honestly, I don't know about how people think and treat their relationships. I live in a very small world of my immediate family of 6 people only. Whatever I do, I do it to please them and as long as they are happy, I don't care about anything else. I guess that sums up my attitude towards my relationships.

SHONALI NAGRANI :
I think it is true only to some extent. There are still a majority of families who have not forgotten or forsaken their values to fulfill their ambition. You are working and earning to survive and to survive you need love and relationship.

Yes, there are people have no feelings and don't think twice before trampling upon their relationships. After all they have to spice up the movie, so you find extreme cases. Even in Madhur Bhandarkar films, there are these extreme scenarios. Everyone is not like that.
