Wake up SID



Being honest, I went to watch the movie with expectations of just being entertained...what i had on mind was a movie which was fun, young and entertaining. Well, i was in for a pleasant surprise...Yes, the movie was fresh, young and entertaining indeed...but what came as a huge bonus was the maturity with which the subject was handled. it turned out to be one rare experience where sensitivity and simplicity meet maturity and sensibility. All the cheers to Mr. Mukherjee for giving it the right treatment. turning a "one line story" into an experience that every one can relate to and take home more than just a few entertaining moments...is a task well acheived by the director. Hard to believe that it was his first directorial exhibition. Screenplay is a winner all the way...the dialogues are straight out of normal daily life. everything ranging from the attitude of today's youth, their relationship with their parents, the bodning between the friends and the development of relationship between ranbir and konkona are well-balanced. The soundtrack is one of the best in recent times. for once we have a soundtrack that doesn't hinder the flow of movie...rather it plays a very very important role in enhancing the impact.

it was such a pleasant change to watch the on-screen pairing of Ranbir and Konkona and their relationship. For once we have an onscreen couple which are connected through minds rather than bodies.

Rahul Khanna is wasted once again. Kashmera Shah has nothing to do. Sid's friends are PERFECT. Overall...It is one of the best to hit the screen in last few years. Not to be missed at all.
