So i watched the movie again yesterday and man whattay movie

i would actually call it the best from dharma

reasons:

it wasn't cheesy like most movies from this banner be it SOTY or the earlier ones we love mainly because of the nostalgia factor but we can't deny they are cheesy to the core be it KKHH or K3G!

secondly it wasn't west influenced like EMAET

also it was original unlike Agneepath

it was a beautiful simple story well told. The direction was top notch- not a single scene you feel is unnecessary- everything goes in a good flow with out falling slow pace or boring. It has a simple message with which every one can relate- the college life is a lot more real than shown in movies like SOTY etc.

and the best part performances- i would call it biru's best. I found him better here than rockstar or barfi

and konkona- no words can describe her brilliant acting- she is even better than the likes of vidya or tabu- these have shown brilliant acting in high emotional roles but konkona nails it even in a role which is not over dramatic or something yet she adds so much life to it and does not go OTT even once- amazing- its sad she never won for this one. Her performance was easily one of the best fromm 2009

also a special mention to the onscreen chemistry! As many people say chemistry is more about the script than the looks- its true. The script made these two so suited for each other. I would say biru's best chemistry is not with katrina, definitely not dpad- its konkona!

anyway i just hope dharma gives us more good work like Wake up Sid! :)

i agree..this movie makes me smile every time I watch it..it's a very cliched story line..but I love the treatment! it's one of those movies which'll stay with me forever...and no matter how many times I watch it, it doesn't get old!

I loved everything about the movie..the bg music, the songs, the dialogues, konkona's apartment, the way the characters were etched!

I love the birthday scene-when he makes her the sandwich, love the scene on the terrace, love the rain scene, love how he cleans up the apartment when she gets pissed, love how she gets jealous, love how it's all so real and normal...basically I heart the movie!

Wake up sid was beautiful...the music, actors, story everything was top notch

Ranbir and konkana played their bits effortlessly. I'd rate it as ranbir's second best performance till date first being barfi :)

It was the first Ranbir Kapoor movie I liked. I'm stilll in love with the song 'Ek taara'. The story was so real and the execution was mere perfect. I've always loved Konkana and her acting as well as Ranbir's were sensible and spot on

It was indeed one of the best by Dharma productions as well as for Ranbir & Konkana too. Their chemistry was strangely beautiful

Dharma movies are really good ...feel good kind of movies in general :)

But Wake Up Sid was a movie with a touch of bit reality to it...a very common story and belivable characters right from Laxmi to Sid's guy friend , that girl who hates Sid( from college) to Ayesha !

Beautifull movie with amazing fresh songs I love Prem Rang Ek Taara <3


i loved her character...and the way she tells him what she hated him...

she tells him that inspite of being superior than him in every form, he has the most easiest life ever.

and then it wakes him up to become something on his own..

what a brilliant scene it was...!!!! 👏👏👏👏👏

yes i do...it was amazing...but they made it quite loud in places...it could have been epic ! sridevi was usually brilliant.

the most touching scene where they take soni razdan and her bro for execution. and sridevi cries inside the cell

Kjo should remake it with better execution
