Guru Dutt has given films that gave a reflection of the future. We must never forget such a man who worked with sincerity.Pls honour him for his work. At present we have Aamir Khan who can step in his shoes. God Bless him. Peter
A very sensitive man. It takes a lot of courage to make films like Pyasa, Kagaz ke Phool etc. Those were the days when they had so many talented Film makers lke Bimal Roy, Mahboob Khan, Shantaram, K. Asif etc. To stand amongst them it required some thing special and Guru Dutt had this talent. He had lost his confidence in himself. Thats the reason he would ghost direct his movies with some one elses name.

Bull shit ...they belong to different era's and if there was as much hero worship and money in those days Guru dutt would have been a multi-millionaire.

I think you better stick to topics like Sharukh's Constipation, Sachin's Undwears, Mllika's Frugality (wth clothes) etc cause they're best suited for the psyches of numbskuls like you. You need generations to pass before yiou can understand Guru Dutt.

After you get married and produce children the first thing you will ask is who your parents are and why they are still in your house.Keep the thing below your nose shut ...you cannot be ignorant of it's stink because your nose is right above it and youwill be first to realise the stink.

He needs coverage definitely because he was a great director, screen play writer. Because he was not orthodox Punjabi Hero or a director who ruled industry that time , he could not succeed .
There are two three facts regarding Guru dutt which i have heard from people of that time
His wife always insisted that she sing in his movies but he wanted to give others opportunity. But his wife fought a lot regarding this issue. He did not have a great relationship with his wife even before waheeda entered his life.
Another fact is that when one of his movie flopped none of his friends or people whom he considered friends helped him in crisis. This made him contemplate about life and go into depression. And anyway genius people are a bit stubborn, egoistic, short tempered and will get depressed if others reject their view.
In 2010 we considered Pyaasa, Kaghaz Ke phool as great movies but that time he was riduculed for making flop movies which were boring.
He liked Waheeda but Waheeda may have treated him only as a director who provided work. So here we do not have an idea. Gurudutt was from Mangalore, a costal city in Karnataka
Regarding Raj Kapoor i heard that since Nargis married and rejected to be his muse for life he started potraying women badly on screen. So it was not some commerical purpose but because he was just taking revenge on nargis by potraying women badly.
