Guru

About This Movie

Guru (1989) is a bit of a wild ride, you know? Mithun Chakraborty really dives into the role of a police officer whose dreams are crushed, leading him down a dark path of crime. The atmosphere feels gritty, with a mix of action and melodrama that keeps you on edge. You see this slow transformation from idealism to a life of dacoity and thugism, which is pretty intense. Sridevi's presence adds a bittersweet touch, fueling his motives. The pacing fluctuates—sometimes slow, sometimes explosive, reflecting his inner turmoil. And while the practical effects aren't groundbreaking, they contribute to that raw feel. It has a certain distinctive flavor you don't see in more polished productions, making it interesting from a collector's perspective.
