If Amitabh has “Deewar” & “Black” to prove his undoubted caliber then Abhishek has “Guru” up his sleeve, proving that he is truly capable of carrying the “Bachchan” torch much more higher. Impressively, it is the finest performance by junior Bachhan after “Yuva”. Mani Ratnam once again proves his mastery over the medium but at the same time also surpasses his earlier ventures. Clearly among his top five movies.
“Guru” is entirely a director’s movie all the way. It really needs a strong imagination and confidence to visualize Abhishek as Guru Bhai. And Abhishek also delivers a fine and polished act under the guidance of one of the most respected directors in Indian Film Industry. Aishwarya, as Guru Bhai’s wife. too comes up with a subtle and impactful performance speaking with her expressive eyes.
A tight screenplay of a biographical, is indeed a very difficult task. But here the screenplay is such that you want more of it in the end. As expected the team of Mani Ratnam and A. R. Rahman again comes up with some brilliant compositions. Background music and the songs moving into the scenes are just perfectly blended. Along with the lead pair, Mithun Chakraborty, Madhavan and Vidya Balan also impress in their short roles. A must watch as an inspiring movie based on real life characters.
