dis movie is really cool
Here is the extra song of Vidya Balan - Shauk Hai. Someone in ARRYG sent it in AMR format recorded using mobile phone. I converted it to WAV.

Got back from the 1PM show.
One word: MINDBLOWING!
My expectations were well kept and everyone did a GREAT JOB! Abhishek especially, he gets extra points for his characterization. From the young age to his old age. Even though I hated Ash, she really did a fantastic job, despite her miniscule role. The chemistry is fantastic. Vidya and Maddy's smooch was suprising yet solidfying. Despite their small roles, they enacted with elan. Ditto to Mithunda.
One thing I'd like to add, Mani casted a senior tamil actor in the court scene. He's one of the jury members by the name Jay Ganesh (He played Harini's father in tamil film Boys.) Apparently, he knows hindi well and I expected him to be dubbed, but wow, this surprised me so much.
Any cons? Just the Ek Lo Ek Muft song. If Mani trims that, the film's pacing would be perfect. It a narration that needs to be seen! I'm not revealing any thing in the story, but GURU is recommended by anyone. ARR's score is awesome and "Tere Bina", "Barso Re", and "Jaage Hain" play prominent roles in the film. The rest are BGM numbers.
Aaya Aaya Gurubhai!

Welcome comeback after the debacle Yuva, A Sure hit! Guru - The Movie
I have seen the movie.. Decent first half and a poor second half. Here are my observations:
1. Climax was absolutely Yuva-like. People couldn't realize the end.
2. The Udit Narayan song was not picturized, wheras the Ek Lo song looked like a yawning time in the movie. Udit song was more promising to hear, though it lasted only like 20 seconds.
3. Rahman could have given more silence in the climax when Gurukant talks.. that looked jarring in that context..
4. Another interesting point I have is that Guru Guru chant, which comes at times in the movie and I observed during the credits scroll.. it very much resembles the Viru Viru Maandi Virumandi tone.. Can excuse Rahman for inspiration though..
All the aforementioned are IMHO...
3.
My views on the movie are absolutely not related to Rahman's work. I very much liked his work and am hooked on to Mayya Mayya..Udit song, Tere bina... in fact all songs except Ek Lo.
Just that he scored even in bgm well this time except the climax.. My earlier view was more to do with Mani Ratnam's handling of the movie. Somehow he seems to have forgotten to end a movie.
hindi audiance 'guru' is good movie'innu praise pannarangga,but tamil audiance mattum 1000 kora sollaranga :cry: tamilanukku innum 'thirupachi',paramasivam,aaru,pokiri,kokki mathiri 'super vettu kuttu'padam than super'innu solluvanggppa :banghead: :banghead:
As i told u guys, i'm in North India now........tell u what - Guru has got a big thumbs up from the people here...... :D .......there has been no bad review for this movie till now from any news channel/TV reviews......Guru promo is running non-stop in all news channel after Ash-Abhishek engagement........ 8-) .......there was a panel discussion on CNBC TV18 on whether Guru is similar to Dhirubhai's story........they had invited top reliance officials for this show to confirm whether Mani had used Dhirubhai's life history?? :shock: .......such has been the impact of this movie in North........Movie has surely got a good name for Maniratnam....... :D .....everybody who watched it have given a thumbsup......
however, the bad news is that this good news hasnt transformed into BO collections......
1st Weekend:
Urban - 90%
Rural - 30%
(courtesy: Aaj Tak)
and no signs of pickup in urban centres, while there is a drop of collections in rural areas to 25% after the weekend........Ash-Abhishek news hasnt pumped up the collections..... :cry: ......but this movie has surely got a good impression and will collect the necessary moolah IMO........ 8-) .....also, eagerly, waiting for Overseas report which is Mani-ARR forte...... 8-)
Renault, hi.....how r u?? did u see Varalaaru first?? :lol:
My friend told me that Guru is very good. I am planning to go for the movie this weekend (in his exact words iyer-ponnu super)
