Олеся1985: Можно я голос подам? Митхун-это что-то. Совсем недавно посмотрела "Классический танец любви".....разговор тут не о том насколько фильм плох, а о том,что Митхун умудрился вытащить это чудо-творение за уши из такой попы. На самом деле очень боялась смотреть на него "современного", после его шедевральных фильмов, но он меня не то что не разочаровал, а покорил вновь. Такой мужчина может заинтересовать и молодых девушек, в нем столько магнетизма.... Ой,я ж о другом хотела. .....Танцевал он, конечно, не как в "Танцор диско" и "Танцуй, танцуй" (да и возраст уже не тот), но тоже очень симпатично......

olga: Mani is an actor’s director: Mithun Diganta Guha Mumbai, January 10, 2007 Guru, which releases on Friday, is actor Mithun Chakraborty’s first film with renowned director Mani Ratnam. That’s just one of the reasons why the film is special to Mithun. However, there are other reasons, too. Mithun starred in Umesh Mehra’s film of the same name (1989) with Sridevi. In Waqt Ki Awaaz (1988), the song Guru guru was a rage. Recently, he starred in a Bengali film titled Guru. And we all know that his fans fondly call him Guru. "Both the previous Gurus were superhit films and I expect this one to follow the trend," says Mithun. This time, Mithun is not the hero — Abhishek Bachchan is. However, Mithun, who was in town on a brief visit and spoke to HT City from his hotel room on Tuesday, has reason enough to be delighted to be part of the film. "Mani and I were supposed to have worked together nine years ago. That time, he wanted me to cut my hair, which I couldn’t. However, this time round, I took a break for the film," says the National Award winning actor, who sports a completely new look in the film unlike the one of the action hero that we are used to seeing him in. Mithun is all praise for the director. "Mani is an actor’s director. There were occasions when I wanted to prove him wrong, but he had the last laugh," he says. The actor says his character is very demanding. Mithun plays an honest crusader who runs a newspaper called The Independent. He finds Guru, (Abhishek’s character in the film) on the road one day and treats him like his son. "He pushes him to do the right things," he says. The actor would not get into the rumour whether the film is late industrialist Dhirubhai Ambani’s biography, except to say that "It is a social drama and a film that every dreamer would relate to." Guru is Mithun’s first film with Abhishek. "He has done a terrific job," says the actor who has worked with Abhishek’s father Amitabh Bachchan in Do Anjane, Ganga Jamuna Saraswati and Agneepath. On a parting note, Mithun says, "My National Awards are a thing of the past. What is important is what I am learning now from Mani. I do films for good roles and that’s what attracts me and the part in Guru is one of them."
olga: Извиняйте, Промт переводил Mani - директор актера: Mithun Diganta Guha Mumbai, 10 января 2007 Гуру, который выпускает в пятницу, является первым фильмом актера Мизуна Чакраборти с известным директором Мани Ратнамом. Это - только одна из причин, почему фильм является особенным для Мизуна. Однако, есть другие причины, также. Mithun, усеянный звездами в фильме Умеша Мехры того же самого названия (1989) с Sridevi. В Уокте Ки Оаазе (1988), гуру Гуру песни был гневом. Недавно, он усеянный звездами в бенгальском фильме назвал Гуру. И все мы знаем, что его болельщики нежно называют его Гуру. "И предыдущие Гуру были фильмами суперхита, и я ожидаю, что этот следует за тенденцией," говорит Мизун. На сей раз, Mithun не герой - Abhishek Bachchan. Однако, Mithun, кто был в городе на кратком посещении и говорил с Городом HT от его гостиничного номера во вторник, имеет причину достаточно, чтобы быть восхищенным быть частью фильма. "Mani и я должны были сотрудничать девять лет назад. То время, он хотел, чтобы я сократил мои волосы, которые я не мог. Однако, на сей раз вокруг, я отдыхал для фильма," говорит Национальное Вознаграждение, выигрывая актера, кто спортивные состязания полностью новый взгляд в фильме в отличие от того героя действия, что мы привыкли видеть его в. Mithun - вся похвала за директора. "Mani - директор актера. Были случаи, когда я хотел доказать его неправильно, но он имел последний смех," говорит он. Актер говорит, что его характер очень требует. Мизун играет честного участника общественной кампании, который управляет газетой по имени "Индепендент". Он находит Гуру, (характер Абхишека в фильме) на дороге один день и рассматривает его как его сын. "Он выдвигает его делать правильные вещи," говорит он. Актер не вошел бы в слух, является ли фильм биографией покойного промышленника Дхирабхэй Амбани, кроме сказать, что "Это - социальная драма и фильм, которого каждый мечтатель коснулся бы." Гуру - первый фильм Мизуна с Абхишеком. "Он сделал потрясающую работу," говорит актер, который работал с отцом Абхишека Амитабхом Баччаном в, Сделайте Anjane, Гангу Джамуну Сарасватиу и Agneepath. На отделяющемся примечании, говорит Мизун, "Мои Национальные Вознаграждения - вещь прошлого. То, что является важным, - то, что я изучаю теперь из Mani. Я делаю фильмы для хороших ролей, и это - то, что привлекает меня, и часть в Гуру - один из них."

olga: "My son is a much better dancer than me" - Mithun Chakraborty By Subhash K. Jha, January 12, 2007 - 06:54 IST The first thing that strikes you about Mithunda is his warmth and humility. "I'm glad to be around for so long." Thankfully no one is offering him father and brother roles in Bollywood. "My new release Guru has me directed by Mani Ratnam. Do you know if things had gone well I’d have worked with him long ago. Yes, Mani had offered me a role in his Tamil film Iruvar (which Prashant finally played) which I didn't do because I was required to cut my hair. If I had cut my hair for one film a dozen other producers would've committed suicide. Mani is a filmmaker who has been doing exemplary work for many years." Mithun is all praise of Mani. "He's an actors' director. He's very clear about what he wants. Whenever I thought I was going wrong, he assured me I was doing fine. Every time I had my doubts I'd run to the monitor to check out my shots. And he was right each time! There was so much to learn from Mani. And I'm not saying that just because I have to. All my young co-stars Abhishek, Aishwarya, Madhavan, and Vidya are lovely to work with…Yes, things have improved technically. The atmosphere is far more cut-throat. The media is far more active today. That makes the stars far more conscious of doing the right things." He refuses to play the stereotypical father or brother. "If I did any of those my fans in Bengal would be very very unhappy. Over there they still see me as a star or superstar. My recent Bengali films like Hungama are super-hits. Bengali producers would throw a fit if I did fatherly roles in Hindi." Every year Mithun-da does 3-4 Bengali films. He confesses he moved to Ooty with his family in the 1980s for the sake of his family. “Because I didn't want to die with the actor's shoes on. I've no ambitions to die as an actor. I want to secure my children's future. They shouldn't suffer when I'm not here. My daughter is only 9!" At the peak of his career Mithun moved to Ooty to do a whole lot of sub-standard films. "I don't know why you should call them sub-standard," he jumps to defend his movies. "Those were also very big hits, for example Jallad. How do you classify them as A-grade or B-grade? Sure, you can classify them as small-budgeted films. Any actor who doesn't know the economics of filmmaking is bound to flop. You need to know your market value. And if you consider yourself a big star in your head, then you'll fall flat on your face. Just because I'm a big star in Bengal I can't ask for Rs 5 crores in Mumbai. I've to know my exact value. To stay in the business I had to know the market and my own value in and out. That's how those films that you call sub-standard films happened. If I'm still around today it's because I did all those films…big small, good or bad or ugly." His next Hindi release is Hansal Mehta's Raakh. "It's a mafia story and I play an elder brother’s role. Mithun-da's range extends from Mrinal Sen's Mrigaya and TL.V Prasad's Jallad.”And let's not forget I play Ramkrishna Paramhans which got me my third National award. So I've played everything from Disco Dancer to Jallad to God…Yes, it's been a long journey." Incidentally Mithun had done a film called Guru in the 1980s. "And I had also done a Guru in Bengali. So this is my third Guru. Both in the past have been very big hits. I'm sure this will be my third successful Guru”… My God! Such a long journey…Any mistakes? “See, the past is a burden that you carry. I don't think it helps you improve on your mistakes. The present and the future are what count. I don't believe in living in the past. Landmarks? The three National award-winning films…then of course Disco Dancer, Pyar Jhutka Nahin, Hum Paanch, Mujrim….These gave me an actor's status and made me very popular." He warns his fans not to expect the same Mithun that they saw in the past. "There isn't that much footage in Guru for me. But whatever there is, it is very important to the plot." Mithun's son Mimoh is all set to make his debut. "My son's film Jimmy should be ready by March; the title comes from one of my hit songs. Mimoh is not at all like me, he's his own person. And he's a much better dancer than I am. Don't believe me? Watch him when he comes on screen”.

Алёна: Интересно что за Гуру на бенгали? вообще я не об этом. Тут в одной теме JIMMY напомнил,что в этом году юбилей Disco Dancer - 25 лет! В связи с этим возникают вопросы. Будут ли (ну не так торжественно как Sholay,конечно) отмечать как-то эту дату? Хотя,если подумать,те же Буги-Вуги и ретроспектива фильмов - "это жжж неспроста"... И еще относительно тех же нескончаемых римейков...Вот на Танцора римейк,а?? Ну не Танцор диско,а Танцор..не знаю..айрон-би,хип-хопа В роли Джимми вижу только Ритика. Сэм - Вивек(хорошие паршивцы из него получается.при всей моей любви к Саифу в роли паршивцев - он сюда не катит). Господин Оберой - Боман Ирани.Рита..не знаю..с Приянкой неплохо Ритик смотрелся... Ой,я бы с удовольствием такой фильм посмотрела!
olga: VINTAGE: Unforgettable Mithun Chakraborty Mithun festival lined up for the small screen Mithun Chakraborty or "Mithunda'', as he is still fondly called by millions of his fans across the country, will soon shine on the small screen. As a tribute to the charismatic film star who is still worshipped by his loyal fans, Max will air a fortnight-long festival titled "Lage Raho Mithunda" beginning January 15. Hindi cinema lovers will be treated to a delectable array of some of Mithun's biggest hits that captured the imagination of people across the country. While Mithun's fashion sense was aped by millions of youth, his skills in martial arts drove many youngsters to taking lessons for themselves. Coming from the City of Joy, Mithun's first film was in his mother tongue Bengali. (Да??? Однако! ) Made by well-known filmmaker Mrinal Sen, "Mrigaya" that hit the theatres way back in 1976 brought Mithun into the limelight. His credentials as a sensitive, brooding actor were also firmly established as he won a National Film Award for Best Actor for his role in "Mrigaya". There was no looking back for Mithunda thereafter. Today he has over 200 films to his credit and seems set for a lot more. From this coming Monday to Friday Max will air the cream of Mithun's blockbusters from 5 p.m. His fans remember him as India's first dancing sensation. This festival promises to delight a large number of cinema lovers who have grown up watching the pulsating steps of the king of disco dancing. The festival features some of the biggest dance hits in the history of Indian cinema like "Disco Dancer", "Dance Dance" and "Kasam Paida Karne Wale Ki". It will also showcase Mithun's memorable performances in movies like "Boxer", "Agneepath", "Daata", "Pyar Ka Devta", "Pyar Ka Mandir" and "Mujrim". -- Madhur Tankha

olga: REVIEW OF GURU by Taran Adarsh Meet India's most powerful man, screams the headlines. You want to believe the statement primarily because the man at the helm of affairs is none other than Mani Ratnam, one of the finest talents India has produced. Irrespective of how his films are received by the paying public, you cannot deny the fact that a Mani Ratnam film is special. So when GURU, Mani's new film, makes claims such as the one mentioned above, the viewer saunters into the cineplex with real big expectations. Mani's impressive repertoire includes a few bio-pics and now GURU is a welcome addition to the club. This time around, the supremely talented storyteller narrates the story of a man who rises from zilch and becomes the premier industrialist of the country through sheer hard work, determination, passion and grit. As a story, GURU is tremendously inspiring and makes you feel all the more confident to encounter challenges and hurdles that may crop up in a journey called life. But by no means is GURU a documentary, as a section of the film industry/media would want us to believe. Sure, GURU chronicles several vital facets of an industrialist's life, but the marriage of enlightenment and entertainment is brilliantly executed here. With GURU, Mani proves that he's indeed the guru when it comes to narrating stories. Note the poignant moments in the narrative -- Guru's thorny relationship with his father [Rajendra Gupta], his relationship with a newspaper publisher [Mithun Chakraborty], Guru's brother-in-law Jignesh [Arya Babbar] staging a walkout and creating a rift between Guru and his wife Sujata [Aishwarya Rai], the confrontation between the journalist [Madhavan] and Guru at the publisher's residence, Guru's emotional moment in the hospital when his trusted aide [Manoj Joshi] attempts suicide and of course, the finale. The graph of GURU escalates gradually and reaches its crescendo in the concluding reels. Guru's monologue in a packed courtroom -- where an enquiry commission is looking into the complaints against Guru's companies -- gives you goose bumps. The simpleton from a village in Gujarat roars like never before and the impact it creates cannot be described in mere words. All you want to say is, it's the most fitting finale for a fabulous film! Mani's choice of the protagonist -- Abhishek Bachchan -- is equally worthy. You ought to be enormously talented to understand the nuances of the character and Abhishek deserves the highest praise for reliving a complex role. You smile when he smiles, you cry when he cries… you relive every single emotion that the character experiences. Only goes to show that the actor involves you at every step with a stupendous performance. In a nutshell, GURU packs in a solid punch in those 2.45 hours. The year 2007 may have just begun, but one can confidently state that this Mani Ratnam film will rank prominently amongst the bests of the year when we go into a flashback mode later this year. Put your hands together for one of the most courageous attempts on the Hindi screen. GURU is a film not to be missed! In a small village of Idar in Gujarat, a young man dreams of making it big some day. His father [Rajendra Gupta], the headmaster of the village school, tells him that dreams never come true. But Gurukant Desai [Abhishek Bachchan] dares to dream! Set in 1951, GURU tells the story of a ruthlessly ambitious villager who moves to Turkey first and Mumbai later with his wife Sujata [Aishwarya Rai] and brother-in-law Jignesh [Arya Babbar] to fulfill his dreams. In Mumbai, truth dawns upon Guru that the business world is a closed community ruled by a handful of rich and influential people who don't believe in giving opportunities to new players. Despite barriers, he starts a company called Shakti Trading and climbs the ladder of success at a furious pace. Manik Dasgupta aka Nanaji [Mithun Chakraborty], who publishes a newspaper Swatantra, treats Guru as his son. But when he learns that Guru's means to make it big are not right, he along with the Editor of his newspaper, Shyam [Madhavan], decide to expose Guru's unjust ways. Even though GURU is a bio-pic, the serpentine twists and turns in the screenplay are the mainstay of the enterprise. You may have heard of a few incidents, but the life sketch of the leading industrialist makes for an interesting celluloid experience. From the writing point of view, while GURU holds your attention at most times, there are a few loose ends, though negligible, that you cannot overlook. The tiff between Guru and his bro-in-law Jignesh is one of those tracks. What actually brings about a rift between the two and why doesn't Jignesh reappear anywhere in the story later is not explained. Another track that doesn't really hold your attention is the one between Madhavan-Vidya Balan. Although the emotional sequence between them is a highpoint [the smooch that follows is aesthetically filmed], you still wish there was some more meat in this sub-plot. Moreover, the film can do without a song 'Ek Lo Ek Muft' [appears soon after Guru and his wife are blessed with twins] and also the pacing could've been tighter in the second half. GURU ranks amongst Mani Ratnam's finest attempts. In fact, it wouldn't be erroneous to state that the film is at par with his most accomplished works like NAYAKAN, AGNI NAKSHATRAM, GITANJALI, ROJA and BOMBAY. Every sequence in GURU bears the stamp of a genius and the outcome is tremendous. A.R. Rahman's music is in sync with the film. 'Maiya Maiya' at the start of the film [Mallika Sherawat] is sizzling, while 'Barso Re' [Ash's introduction] and 'Tere Bina' are melodious to the core. Rahman's background score is also topnotch. Rajiv Menon's cinematography is of international quality. The lensman captures the 1950s look, right to the present day setting, with flourish. Vijay Krishna Acharya's dialogues are of superior quality. The writing in the last twenty minutes is fantastic. Reserve all the awards for Abhishek Bachchan. No two opinions on that! His performance in GURU is world class and without doubt, a shade above his career-best work in YUVA. From a sharp teenager in Turkey to the biggest entrepreneur of the country, Abhishek handles the various shades this character demands with adroitness. He takes a giant leap with this film! Aishwarya Rai too stuns you with a powerful performance. Known for her angelic looks all the while, the actor will make people sit up and notice the reservoirs of talent in GURU. Also, the chemistry between Abhishek and Aishwarya is electrifying. Mithun Chakraborty is in form after a long, long time. And it's a pleasure to see the veteran deliver a natural performance from start to end. Madhavan's role could've been stronger, but he enacts it with йlan. Vidya Balan too suffers due to a weak characterization, but makes up with a confident performance. Arya Babbar is first-rate in a brief role. The film has a number of characters, but the ones who register a strong impact are Roshan Seth, Manoj Tyagi and Sachin Khedekar. On the whole, GURU is one of the finest films to come out of the Hindi film industry. At the box-office, its business will be excellent at the multiplexes as compared to the single screens. In fact, the business at the multiplexes [which are performing 12/14/18/20 shows a day] will be enough to make the film a success story in days to come. Strongly recommended, go for it! 4\5
olga: WATCH GURU FOR THE ACTORS Raja Sen January 12, 2007 18:12 IST Guru is the stuff of dreams, the fluff of escapism. It is cinema where protagonists succeed defying all odds and where young gophers in Shell tracksuits go on to address stadium-fulls of adoring shareholders. And, it comes complete with songs, thrown in with abrupt abandon. Except, because this is Bollywood, we've seen it all before. Rags to riches tales abound in the unreal song-and-dance world our stars jiggle around in, and we have seen protagonists come from nowhere to become superheroes, just like we've seen them fight 81 gangsters armed with their mother's blessings. Dare to dream, it announces proudly, but isn't that the moral of pretty much every masala Bollywood pikchur? Then again, Guru is a Mani Ratnam film. Which automatically ensures restraint and realism in the film and an almost hushed reverence in the audience. The film stops a few inches short of being a biopic, but the director bestows his character, Guru Kant Desai, with enough depth to make him feel as flesh-and-blood as you or me. Sure, there are enough superficial similarities with real life business icons, but the film (sadly?) isn't about men who share a corporate logo uncannily similar to the hero, it's about Guru. Period. And he's quite the character. Abhishek Bachchan plays the young Gujarati boy with stars in his eyes and an excessive urge to warm his pockets. After landing himself a job in Turkey (and cavorting with the supremely sexy Mallika Sherawat) he works his way up the corporate chain, before he decides he's got to go into business for himself. 'Bijness,' Guru'd say. Deciding to marry his closest friend's sister because of the dowry he can packet as his starting capital, our leading man strikes gold as he finds himself a dutiful, undeniably pretty wife in the bargain, played by Aishwarya Rai. Then comes his rise, with lots of happenstance. Strangely, Mani chooses not to dwell too much on his climb itself, preferring to show us bits of success interspersed with A R Rahman's spectacular music -- which, in this case, almost always overwhelms the film around it. So while we have young Guru seeing through a game of cups-and-balls at a Turkish fair and Guru ingeniously winning himself a crucial trading membership on the golf course, the incidents come at a slow clip, minus revelations or insight, with most of the action lying in Guru's crisply-written dialogue, the hero speaking almost exclusively in punchlines. And a rise so meteoric does indeed owe a tremendous debt to Miss Fortune. But the ambitious achievers, the ones out there trying to change the world around them while you're reading this review, aren't just lucky lads/lasses. They're the ones leaving absolutely no stone unturned, denying refusal and perpetually keeping eyes peeled for opportunity to exploit. So when a furious, sun burnt Guru glares at a big building at Mumbai's picturesque Marine Drive and happens to randomly run into the genial publisher of The Independent (Mithun Chakraborty) who happens to like people with a temper, the meeting is chance. The relationship that follows, is all Guru's doing. Guru is fuelled by a slew of strong performances. Abhishek Bachchan owns the movie, forcing audiences to sit up straight as it begins and making us laugh and applaud as he carries on. Bachchan forces himself under the skin of the character, and from gait to accent, proves constantly credible. He's impressive in every frame, as he ebulliently takes over an alien room by hopping onto a chair, or when he's trying to be ever so slightly slimy, polishing his spectacles and showing off his smarminess. He thrusts his chest out in jubilation, manages a paunch to rival his pregnant wife's, and can really, really hold his own (while channeling some of his dad's glorious anger) during a soliloquy. And then there's his lady. Aishwarya Rai starts off cold, breaking into song a few minutes after Ms Sherawat has wowed the crowds, and despite her newfound penchant for very low-cut cholis, she doesn't quite get you going. Until she reaches a railway station, as abandoned as in Dil Se, reads a Dear Jane letter from a spineless lover, and grits her teeth. This one's a fiery character, solid of resolve and while she melts irresistibly for her husband, is not likely to take nonsense from anyone else. Ash is disarmingly natural in the film, holding her own even in scenes where she's crippled by a lack of dialogue. There is a spontaneous freedom to her, and this is arguably her finest performance, visible especially when she takes over the film's climax. Mithunda may be a revelation to Bollywood audiences unfamiliar with his art-house work, but Mani uses him very well in a role that justifies his top billing in the movie's credits. His character is strong but with weaknesses, great but almost tempted to give up the nobility. Mithun portrays this inner conflict with terrific moderation, and is largely responsible for the film reaching a crescendo in the first half. As for the others, outside of a fine supporting cast culled from television, the lovely Vidya Balan is okay but somewhat wasted in a role that isn't as well-etched, and Madhavan proves, yet again, that he can mouth good-boy lines with extreme, believable sincerity. This one is truly a poster boy for India. Sadly, the film hinges on greatness, but decides to play it safe. Even as it builds up, with fabulous, infectious enthusiasm right up to the interval, it promises far more than the second half delivers. The film is about a gray character, about Guru Kant Desai (That's Gurubhai to you) who made questionable decisions, delved into illegality and made offers people couldn't refuse -- a man who never looked back in his overreaching urge to make more money. A character high on ambition, low on scruples and one who considers himself a messiah, albeit purely capitalistic. Yet while there is much ground to explore this conflict (and the film lays down the ammo in the first half), most of it is oversimplified. While the film does call Guru 'a smuggler' and 'a swindler,' it does so in hushed tones. The newspapermen are painted with near villainous colours, seeming to persecute the almost-blameless hero. Mani looks so besotted with his hero that the film virtually calls his crimes insignificant and inevitable. There is a point near the end when Guru vociferously likens himself and his fight for more to Gandhi's freedom struggle, and our jaws drop till he instantly retracts the scandalous line. This is irresponsible filmmaking coming from a director of such stature. It's disappointing seeing a non-biopic turn into such hagiography, and while it works completely -- save for a slightly winded second half -- as a masala film, it really had the potential to be Fantastic. It isn't. 3/5 The REDIFF review
viki: Девачки нашла такую статью и с как перевела то серовно до конца непонела Бесит этот перевочик Может подскажете по точней что там всетаки за история! Who is playing pranks on aishwarya rai? it’s not everday that you can pull a fast one on one of the world’s most beautiful women. Abhishek Bachchan has akk the luck. The actor recently played a prank that had Aishwarya Rai blushing. Apparently he went around telling people, including co-star Mithun Chakraborty, that ash was fabulous singer. So when Mithunda saw ash perform, he began praising her talent before the unit, saying, “If I tell you that ash is a beautiful girl, a good dancer etc, you will say ‘big deal’ but did you know that she is a very good singer as well? Abhishek told me so.” Ash who was present, was already blushing at the praise from the veteran actor, she was shocked on hearing the last statement. That was when she realised that Abhu was behind mischief.
Алёна: вкратце - Митхун похвалил Айш за то,что она не только красива,хорошо танцует,но еще и хорошо поет. Ну и типа она покраснела и все такое. И делают упрек Аби,что тот никогда не хвалит ее на людях. Всё.
Lo: Митхун как настоящий мужчина, немного приувеличивает женские достоинтства. Слышала как в одной передаче Айш попросили спеть и она, очень смущаясь, что-то напела.. Слух у нее хороший, и голос приятный, но сла-а-а-бенький совсем... Так что Митхун просто очень добр и галантен.

olga: By Nithin Ramesh, January 13, 2007 - 06:16 IST 12 of 12 people found this review helpful You can either hate a mani Ratnam movie, or love it, but you cannot deny that the perfomances that he extracts from each of his actor is nothing short of outstanding..GURU is a movie dependent on the performance of the main protagonist..unless the audience emphatise with Guru, you wont be able to identify with the movie..however, Abhishek with an award worthy performance manages to grasp you in his hands and take you through all his trials and tribulations..you laugh when he laughs, you cry when he cries, you feel angry when someone tries to take him down..such is the impact that Abhishek aka Gurubhai generates thorughout the movie,..and that is where the movie suceeds to a great level..hats off to Mr.Mani Ratnam for extracting the best out of Abhishek..definitely a golden feather in his career.. Abhishek Bachan has infused so much life into his character that you start thinking that he is actually a business tycoon ! His playful interactions with his mother, his respect towards his father and a restrained revolt against him, his optimist attitude towards setting up his "bijness", his love towards his wife and his relationship with his god daughter, and his revolt at the system..everything has been etched out so beautifully that even the subtlest of emotions have been brought out by Junior B in a way that lingers with you long after you have come out of the theatre..Abhishek has got under the skin of the character Gurubhai so much so that you begin to think that Guru really exists ! His body language over the time that charts his life from 15 - 70 also changes accordingly, from a young and restless youngster to a confirdent young entrepreuner to a more subdued and relaxed achiever..the dialogues that he speaks, almost every sentence ends with a punchline, that you have to think "well said" !! The best scenes among the best ones (there are no bad scenes really!) are the one when he comes back from Turkey and talks to his father regarding his intentions of setting up his own business, the scene where he throws the blank cheque, his anger that follows, his scene with his wife on the swing talking about their future, his scene in the hospital with his friend where he breaks down, his addressing of his employees first on a big stage and then later in the rain, the scene where Mithun calls him home and decides to expose him, the scene in the train with Ash, his final revolt in court and many many more...GURU is definitely an Abhishek film all the way and he carries it on his shoulders ever so efficiently..this will definitly be a milestone in the actor's career.. Coming to the rest of the actors, those who say that ASH can only look beautiful and not act can eat their words..standing by her husband's side through all the highs and lows, her persona elicits a confident, outspoken, yet conservative nature..her expression of anger mixed with hurt upon reading her lover's letter and her breakdown in the train afterwards are to be seen to be believed..the scene where she makes her daughters sing for their recuperating father is good..she is the confidante of Guru, all his anger and frustrations are handled by her in the most dignified manner, she however comes into her own towards the climax where she becomes the mouthpiece for Guru in the court, without her loving support and willpower, Guru would have lost..Mani Ratnam has managed to convey most of her emotions through her eyes, in a natural manner..even her body language from a bubbly and strongheaded village girl to a loving wife to a staunch supporter of Guru has been potrayed brilliantly by the actor..performance wise this would be one of the best in her career.. MITHUN CHAKARAVRTHY has finally got a role that he sink his teeth deep into..he has performed it so brilliantly that you wonder why this actor was wasted in B and C grade movies all these years..hs interactions with Guru, his mixed feelings of love and hate towards his god son, and his outburst at his staff running his newspaper firm have been excellently enacted by the actor..this should the comeback movie for this actor.. MADHAVAN albeit in a short role, has done well..he looks much younger and one of the scenes that stands out is the one where he exposes Guru's misdoings in the factory through an interview with the Director..his proposal scene with Vidya Balan is also well written although was a little taken aback with the lip lock that followed, aesthetic as it was ! VIDYA BALAN again in a short role has performed well..her relationship with her godfather Guru is cute ..the best scene where she gets to shine is the proposal one with Madhavan..however a weak characterization undermines her performance considerably... Others who stand out are the actors playing Guru's father, his friend from Turkey and Arya Babbar who plays his bro-in-law.. Direction is top notch..Mani as usual knows how to get the best out of every aspect mirroring the tiniest detail in a magnified format..this could easily be counted as one among his masterpieces.. Cinematography is excellent..where it manages to essay the old world feel via sepia/black and white tones to the 70s where its shot mostly in blue hues.. Music by RAHMAN is arousing..especially the background score which you actually find yourself humming after the movie is over (or was it just me ?)..arrangements and orchestration is rich and top class..truly one of his finest efforts ever, after RDB.. All in all, GURU is movie not to be missed..especially for the performance by our Gurubhai himself, Abhishek Bachan !!
olga: By Ganesh Sharma, January 12, 2007 - 13:34 IST 22 of 26 people found this review helpful AMAZING is the word! Saw the movie in Dubai. What a film! Wow! The story, screen play, dialogues, cinematography, music, ensemble cast and above all the performance of Bacchan and Aishwarya! Credit goes to the captain of the ship, Mr. Ratnam! Way to go! He ahs truly made a film that inspires you, moves you and entertains you.. I am planning to watch it again, there are way too many nuances that you tend to miss out on Mani's films in the first go, he waves in many subtle layers... After Rang De Basanti last January, this is yet another January gift for movie buffs. I JUST HOPE IT CLICKS with the public so Mani Ratnam is encouraged to make teh movies that he believes in and give us more quality cinema in the years to come. Aishwarya looks fabulous with her natural looks and has given a subtle performance.. I take back my words when I said earlier that she is pretty but can't act. She proves that she CAN, and HOW!! Abhishek! Take a bow. You are the true star of the film! Others of your generation can learn a lesson or two from you. An award winning performance. Madhavan and Vidya, in spite of your brief roles, you excelled. Mithun, we are glad you made a strategic move to act in such a movie and not yet another B grade flick! You show us glimpses of what you are truly capable of! BRAVO!
olga: Mithun da aaye che! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- By Joginder Tuteja, Bollywood Trade News Network It's not just the cheers of 'Gurubhai aaye che' that are making the rounds across the country during last 24 hours since the release of GURU! Another round of applause is coming for none other than Mithun Chakraborty for whom most were convinced that he would finally make a worthy comeback with GURU. As a supporter turned bitter enemy who detests Gurubhai's way of working and empire expansion, Mithun da has come up with a terrific and one of the most remarkable performances in his 3 decade old career. The 'taalis' and 'seetis' are not jut reserved for some quotable quotes by Abhishek Bachchan but even Mithun da who has shown his class as a veteran actor par excellence in the film. Now one just wants him to consolidate on the platform that has been provided by director Mani Ratnam and pick up great roles from here! Till then, we continue to chant - Mithun da aaye che!
