So, what happens when you go and watch a life story you are living? When you could possibly relate each and every instance of it? Yes! 'Wake Up Sid' is story of Me, You and many roaming around here and there with just no aim.Now one could think is it 'Lakshya' again? Well not really, if 'Laskhya' was a cover page of book, 'Wake Up Sid' is inside story. I liked 'Lakshya' but i seriously loved 'Wake Up Sid'.

Wake Up Sid is a story of two contrast figures of  today's world, Sidharth Mehra aka SID[Ranbir Kapoor] & Aisha[Konkana Sen Sharma]. Sid with no aim and Aisha with lots of dreams, but strange as life is, they became friends.The story developed with failures and realizations of both characters about themselves, life and others. First half was 'Fun' that went through in a blink of an eye.Second half is what i call an 'Inside Story' of a young guy of today, may be of cities in particular.

Bollywood is rising and in few 'Taken For Granted' movies, few original gems come and amaze you. 'Kaminey' right from First Look & Promos was looking promising and one can feel a new flavor in it. Expectations were high, not only because of promos or plot but the reputation of 'Vishal Bharadwaj' after 'Omkara'. So did he came up with something as good as 'Omkara' ? Yes, of course he did and he did it brilliantly.

'Kaminey' is story of two brothers Charlie & Guddu [Shahid Kapoor], Two identical twins who live two different lifes separately and how at one stage their lifes colide as their fate were meant to be one. The screenplay unfolds their characters, one who slutter and other who lisps elegantly but the beauty is how amazingly it fit to them. The screenplay itself was written with superb knowledge of particular cinema but direction was the part which took it to a new level. First half laid the foundation of a brilliant second half and both equally shared the excitement, thrill and fun. There was not a moment in the movie which let it down.

Performances were just awesome, Shahid Kapoor-The Actor born again. One has to see how effortlessly this lad played two drasticly contrast characters and really came out victorious in every sense. Priyanka on the other hand was as usual in skin of her character and played her part beautifully. Rest of the cast was good too. Dialogues in characteristic style were brilliant and despite being lispy one repeats it often after movie. Cinematography was top notch too, the angles were perfect and it catches. Editing was something applaud worthy, it won't be this without such editing.

Music was brilliant, each song was a gem for me. Hard hitting 'Dhan Ta Nan' or soothing 'Kaminey' or peppy 'Raath Ke Dhai' or Dancing 'Fatak' . My favorite picks 'Pehli Baar'[Credits] 'Dhan Ta Nan' & 'Kaminey'. Every song leaves the mark on those who try different.Background score was thrilling and kept the play on heat.

On the whole, 'Kaminey' is one of finest and brilliant mixture of elegant screenplay & brilliant direction with topping of awesome performance. It's just great to see such cinema rising in 'Bollywood', one has to tap back of Vishal Bharadwaj for this one specially.It's true 'Charm Lies with Originality'. Bole tu Ek Dum 'Fplendid'.

(4.5/5) Outstanding
