Some films are such a great representation of a specific place and time — Wake Up Sid is just that for late 2000s Mumbai. The evocative songs, editing, and heartfelt lead performances are a testament to Mukherjee's skill as a director. This is a fantastic introduction to Hindi cinema and left a lingering mark on urban audiences around the globe. It also happens to be Mukherjee's debut and long-standing collaboration with Ranbir Kapoor.
