The Ayan Mukerji directorial became a cult classic, which somehow played an essential role in uplifting Kapoor&#8217;s career in earlier days.<\/p>\n<p>Now, a behind-the-scenes video featuring the duo, potentially from a film set or an ad shoot, has reignited fervour among fans to witness their reunion on the screen, sparking hopes for a Wake Up Sid sequel.<\/p>\n<p>The viral Reddit video showcases Kapoor, Sen Sharma, along with Namit Das and Shikha Talsania, the protagonist&#8217;s friends from the film, engaged in something together. The Sanju star appears casually dressed in a blue shirt and off-white pants, while Sen Sharma channels her iconic Aisha look from the popular movie in a white kurta, denim, and a dupatta. The ensemble of Namit and Shikha echoes their original characters&#8217; style from the film.<\/p>\n<p>It is pertinent to mention that neither the actor nor the Brahmastra filmmaker has confirmed or denied the possibility of a second installment. Several Indian news portals have, however, confirmed the said video to be a promotional clip from an advertisement.<\/p>\n<p>The video&#8217;s circulation stirred an outpouring of desire among internet users to see Ranbir and Konkona share the screen again. &#8220;Please make a movie both of you. Sid and Ayesha should be back,&#8221; urged a Reddit user, evoking nostalgic sentiments. Others echoed the sentiment, expressing interest in a sequel exploring the duo&#8217;s lives 15 years later. Additionally, fans lauded the Aaja Nachle star&#8217;s directorial prowess, envisioning her directing Kapoor in a film.<\/p>\n<p>Wake Up Sid presented a refreshing take on the complexities of adulthood, portraying Sen Sharma as a responsible and independent young woman, a stark contrast to Kapoor&#8217;s carefree character in the film. The feel-good movie also featured seasoned actors Anupam Kher and Supriya Pathak.<\/p>\n<p>Presently, Kapoor enjoys the success of his recent venture, Animal, while Sen Sharma garnered critical acclaim for her segment, The Mirror, in Lust Stories 2 in 2023.<\/p>\n<p><em>Have something to add to the story?
