Wake Up Sid!! - My thoughts on the movie

Just finished watching the movie Wake Up Sid. I could sooo identify with the earlier character!! The sitting in an exam hall, having futile regrets too late, the tension about passing and making all kinds of promises to god and self about how the next time will be better, until the next time....
The messy room, the self centred life ( part of which continues even today!!).

Also loved how the initial part of the movie focusses on the hep and happening club life types, but the later part shows them enjoying the much more wonderful yet simple joys of sitting on the ocean side, having a road side chai with someone, etc. It portrays different sides without castigating any....

Problem question of the movie being - what would've happened if Sid passed? Hmm...

but overall a very nice movie... I like.

It gives me a re-look at the various stages of my life. It gives me an assurance ( odd one though!!) that i'm not the only one to have been such an ass!! Most importantly, it gives me hope that I will find my metier too!! ( Though maybe i'll become like Sid's dad, my passion is somewhere, my necessities lead me elsewhere. And is that so wrong? It looks to be, but I don't know....

I think there should be a GO that says that people at 30 cannot be confused!! But I guess if there was, that'd just be one more of the essentials I would be bad at...

A definitely one time must watch movie. :)
