Filmmaker Anandha Krishnan's controversial action thriller Metro is finally hitting the screens this Friday. The film was finally cleared with an A-certificate. In the film, Bobby Simha one again plays a negative role after Neram, Jigarthanda and Masala Padam. Sirish Saravanan is the lead hero.

Director Anand has revealed to a leading lady that the film is inspired from few real life events. “Few years ago, I had witnessed a chain snatching. Thankfully, it was a failed attempt but the lady fell down and bruised herself in the process. The mental trauma she underwent during that split second and the ensuing hours inspired me to make Metro,” he was quoted saying.
