Wake Up Sid will do average business.

The film Wake up Sid is destined to do average business. Ayaan Mukherjee, the director of the film experimented on a very dry subject. Karan Johar had produced the film and the film had been shot in sensible locations.

Ranbir Kapoor had been shown as a very lazy person who never had any goal in life. His father Anupam Kher got irritated about his carefree life. His mother Supriya Pathak tried to shield his mistakes and when Anupam Kher found him failing in his exams he asked him to leave the house and build his career.

He met Konkona Sen Sharma, who was an aspiring writer from Kolkata. She came all the way from Kolkata to Mumbai to shine in the field of journalism. She was given an opportunity by Rahul Khanna, the editor of the publication house where Konkona got a job.

Konkona met Ranbir Kapoor, became friends and took his help in finding a rented house in Mumbai. She allowed Ranbir Kapoor to stay in her house. Both of them fought together at times. Konkona told Ranbir Kapoor that he did not grow.

She introduced Ranbir Kapoor to a photo developing personality who gave him a job. Both of them worked together. Lastly Ranbir Kapoor told his father Anupam Kher about his development and his father allowed him to return back and stay in his house. Konkona was in her tears to know that Ranbir was returning back. She realized for the first time that she got attached. Ranbir also understood that he loved Konkona Sen Sharma. The story ended here.

The trouble with these films is that only a certain section of the audience has the patience to understand the off-beat subject inspite of star cast of Ranbir Kapoor. Shankar Ehsaan Loy also gave very soft music as opposed to their innovative style of music given in films like Don or Kabhi Alvida Na Kehna. Wake Up Sid will do average business but can get appreciation from the critics.

Review of the film Wake Up Sid.

Review of the film Wake Up Sid.

Ranbir Kapoor is seen again in the film Wake Up Sid, which is going to be released very soon. The film had been directed by Ayan Mukherjee and produced by Karan Johar. Konkona Sen Sharma acted in the film opposite Ranbir Kapoor.

Ranbir Kapoor played the role of a carefree college lad, who just understood about responsibilities only after his final year college exams. He interacted with his two friends Namit Das and Shikha Talsania. He hardly told about his affairs to his father Anupam Kher and mother Supriya Pathak.

On the other hand Konkona Sen Sharma played the role of a serious writer who had come all the way from Kolkata to pursue her career as a writer. She was serious, sincere and composed. Inspite of having different ways of lifestyle Konkona Sen Sharma developed a good relationship with Ranbir Kapoor.

While time flew fast in the life of Konkona who was busy with duties, it did not have much in store in case of Ranbir Kapoor. The film took turn after Ranbir Kapoor realized the sense of responsibility that should have been in him after some time.

Ranbir Kapoor and Konkona Sen Sharma did extremely well in the film. The performances were so natural that hardly they appeared to be involved in acting. Rahul Khanna, Supriya Pathak, Anupam Kher and all the supporting actors and actresses did very well in the film.

The music composed by Shankar Ehsaan Loy were not that impressive, although the song “wake up sid” had already become popular even before the release of the film. The other important songs included “life is crazy” and “aajkal zindagi”.

But the film does not have the masala with which it can turn out to be a blockbuster. It is going to do good business.
