Abhi needed a solo hit very badly and it has come to him at the right time, when he has decided to settle down in life. I am sure this success will do him a world of good. He is a good actor, but it is difficult to prove that bcoz, he is always bench marked against the Big B. A genius like Mani Ratnam has now done his second movie with Jr.Bachchan means, Mani certainly knows that there is genuine talent which needs to be showcased. People like Mani dont put their money on the wrong horse. The success of this movie augurs well for the Abhiwarya. Good wishes to them.
Guru is an average hindi movie but the individual performances are gr8. Watch Guru for the actors. The movie lacked a flow & also the screanplay is poor. But the movie can be watched once.
Guru is one outstanding film by an outstanding director of INDIA. This movie does not need any publicity stunt like Ash and Abhi's engagement. I guess Engagement happened because this month starting from 14th was auspicious. Film's fate is decided by its story telling and performance by actors and not just by publicity. D-2 was absolutely non sense film, but media made it a blockbuster because media could never stop praising hrithik's abs, his looks, aishwarya's and bipasha's bikini show etc. but happened to the STORY, media was in no mood to talk about that?
Guru is another example of how word of mouth spreads and makes a movie hit. All know by now how the critics have shown a very luke worm praise on the movie. If Guru succeeds critics have a lesson - better wait and comment later.
