Guru is Dhiru’s life story?

Like ‘Iruvar’ the story of MGR and MK, which was a hit, Maniratnam’s ‘Guru’ is the life story of Dhirubhai Ambani. I need to confirm this rumour.

After Ayudha Ezhuthu, (Yuva in Hindi) there was a long silence from Maniratnam. He is back with Guru.

Maniratnam known for his perfection, authenticity and details.
He needed vintage steam engine from Rail Museum to shoot at Banapur, near Hubli. Abhishek is sending off an aged man and seeking blessings of his parents.

The usually deserted Banapur railway station overcrowded It was once in a lifetime opportunity for the villagers to have a glimpse of Bollywood stars

Maddy is starring in Guru. There was confusion in choosing Maddy’s pair for a long time.

Finally it is announced that Vidya Balan has been chosen as Maddy’s pair.

In this film Maniratnam is working on the concept of bringing in two pairs.
Abishek Bachchan - Aishwarya Rai is one pair and Maddy - Vidya Balan is the other pair

In Guru Abhishek Bachchan (1), Aishwarya Rai, Madhavan (as the antagonist 2) and Vidya Balan take pivotal roles. The movie also stars Mithun Chakraborty in a supporting role and Mallika Sherawat in a cameo role. The movie will also be dubbed in Tamil and Telugu.

While the star cast is good, Gulzar and A. R. Rahman again team up, which should result in some really good Music. Anurag Kashyap, a very talented writer writes the dialogues again.

    Hi,
    Music album has been released today. Songs are cool. It is a mystery - Rahman takes extra care to give hits for Maniratnam (or is it Maniratnam who spends time with Rahman to motivate, contribute and see that best music comes out?)
