Abhishek Bachchan in Guru

Mani Ratnam’s recent movie Guru has been doing well in the screens al over the India since its release on last Friday. Though it is not possible to comment on its success in the box office as Guru is still less than a week old, the movie has already created much hymn and has already been considered as the first super hit movie of the year. Guru is a story of a village boy who reaches to his goal in the life with his courage and working hard mentality. He always gets his wife Sujatha standing by him both in success and struggle. This two protagonists’ role are seen playing by Abhishek Bachchan and Aishwarya Rai. The movie is totally a tale of the life of this successful man, Guru (played by Abhishek Bachchan), who becomes one of the topmost businessmen in his country, is enough for getting the tag of an inspirational character which depicts the life of a young businessmen indicating his initial obstacles, overcoming those obstacles and getting into a new environment of being a rich man and facing some unwanted and scandalous situations.

Abhishek Bachchan has undoubtedly showed his best acting skill ever in the film Guru. The performance he showed in Guru deserves to be a milestone in his acting career. Through this movie Abhishek again proves that at present, he is one of the best actors for serious type character in the industry. The character well-proves how much effort Abhishek had to give to play the role. Having seen the movie I could well understand that for playing the role of Guru, an actor needs to have the quality of being adopted with different situation, environment and age in the same movie. For playing the aged part of the businessman, Abhishek had to get some extra physical weight in order to make the role perfect. Guru’s patience, working hard, confidence, honesty and determination make him a successful businessman in the country and this entire feature of Guru comes out through the excellent acting performance of Bachchan Jr. From that point of view, I think, Abhishek has done his job successfully.

From another point of view, you can also term the movie as a pure love story. I think, the way of love seen in the movie is something unconventional comparing with majority Bollywood movies. In other movies love begins between a boy and girls before they get married and then after a series of obstacles their love comes into existence through marriage whereas in Guru, the love between two protagonist roles starts after they get married. Initially, Guru’s wife Sujata (played by Aishwarya Rai) does not agree to marry Guru but being pressurized by her father she agrees to marry Guru and is sent to Bombay with Guru. The love starts when this couple comes to Bombay and faces the harsh reality. Abhishek could perfectly show a role of loving and responsible husband who loves her better halves very much. There are some minor misunderstandings between the couple which add some extra features to their love. Thus their relationship becomes stronger and their desire to each other gets an extra pace. In later part of the movie, it is seen that Guru and Sujata as an aged couple remember their youth life and becomes nostalgic where Abhishek seems to show some of his best acting skills.

I think, in the movie Guru, Abhishek showed a remarkable performance which proves that his acting talent is getting flourished and the movie can bring out a big turn in his career.
