The Movie’s Music
No movie is complete without its soundtrack, and Wake Up Sid isn’t different. Music by Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy, the songs of this movie are iconic to date. If you go to Marine Drive and don’t listen to Iktara at least once, something doesn’t feel right, and that’s the magic of Wake Up Sid’s soundtrack.
