Wake Up Sid reunion after 15 years: Konkona Sen Sharma reminisces about the good old days; says, “I did not anticipate that it would be so popular and so many people would want a sequel”

Bollywood actress Konkona Sen Sharma recently shared her experience of reuniting with the cast of Wake Up Sid after nearly 15 years for an ad shoot. In an interview with Hindustan Times, Konkona expressed her delight at the reunion, particularly working again with actors Ranbir Kapoor, Namit Das, and Shikha Talsania.

Reflecting on the reunion, Konkona Sen Sharma stated, “So lovely!. Actually, its mainly the actors! You know, Ranbir (Kapoor), Namit (Das), Shikha (Talsania)… four of us were working again, and we were like, ‘Oh my god! We were such babies back in the day! (smiles) Ranbir had just Saawariya I think, so he was also a baby you know! And I was working with Ranbir after Animal and he has become such a big star. Even Namit and Shikha, they have all done such great work. We were meeting after such a long time, and it was a great reunion of sorts. We missed Ayan (Mukerji, the director), but we had the wonderful Shakun Batra, with whom I have been wanting to work with. He is a wonderful director, so I was so lucky! I was so surprised when they approached me for the ad, I was like, ‘Really, Wake Up Sid 2 ka ad you are doing?' But, I did not anticipate that it would be so popular and so many people would want a sequel.”

The speculation about a Wake Up Sid sequel arose after a video featuring the cast went viral on social media. Filmmaker Karan Johar later confirmed that it was an advertisement.
