A resident of Mumbai, Sid's only interest is to have fun and spend his father's money. Thus, he spends little time at college and is not prepared for final exams. A day after the final exams, Sid's father tells him it is time to join his company, ''Flower Showers'' - a bathroom furnishings manufacturer - for 30 days, which Sid reluctantly does only after his father tempts him with the promise of a new car. Sid meets Aisha (Konkona Sen Sharma), an aspiring writer recently moved away from her hometown of Calcutta and several years older than Sid. After a spontaneous walk around the city, they strike a chord instantly and a friendship ensues. Sid helps her to find and furnish her own apartment. She also lands a job with ''Bombay Beat'', (based on ''Time Out! Bombay'')() a hip magazine run by the handsome editor-in-chief Kabir (Rahul Khanna). On the eve of her 27th birthday, Aisha invites Sid to her place. When Sid tentatively explores moving their relationship beyond friendship, he finds that Aisha perceives him as boyish and immature. Despite feeling hurt, he maintains his friendship with her. When the exam results come out, Sid finds out that he has failed. His failure leads to a heated argument with Rishi (Namit Das), his childhood friend, as well as an intense family fight that ends with him moving out. With nowhere to go, Sid (who has never been on his own) asks Aisha if he can stay with her. Aisha is initially happy to have the company, but is gradually annoyed by the fact that Sid constantly leaves her place a mess and throws tantrums. After an argument with Aisha, Sid learns that to care for himself, he has to begin cooking and cleaning. He also realizes that he must work, and Aisha helps him land a role as a photography intern - photography having been a hobby of his since childhood - at ''Bombay Beat''. Aisha is ecstatic when Kabir selects her article for publishing at the magazine and asks her on a date. However, she realises she does not have much in common with Kabir, despite her initial attraction to him. She then understands that she is in love with Sid. As Sid begins working, he finds meaning in life. He begins to see for the first time how his behavior has hurt his loved ones and that he needs to change his dissolute ways. This includes having a newfound appreciation for his mother, Sarita (Supriya Pathak). He also reconciles with Rishi when they meet again for the first time since their fight. After he is hired as full-time staff and receives his first paycheck, he meets his father. They reconcile and Sid's father asks him to come home. Sid, who often considers himself a burden on Aisha, tells her that he won't be dependent on her anymore and expects her to be thrilled. He doesn't realise that Aisha has fallen in love with him, and that Aisha is furious to hear that he is leaving. Confused and hurt, Sid makes his departure. When Sid returns home, he thinks constantly of Aisha, though he does not believe she might share his feelings since she told him that they could only be friends. When the latest issue of ''Bombay Beat'' arrives, Sid reads Aisha's column and is startled to discover that it is about her feelings for him. As it starts raining, he rushes to meet her at the same beach where they had gone the day they met. Sid expresses his love for her and the two embrace. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Wake Up Sid」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
