Guru DuttCast
Waheeda RehmanPlot
A famous director falls in love with an actress. The first Indian film shot in CinemaScope, it failed on release and is now a cult classic.
Sinekatalog’s take
Guru Dutt's tragic classic follows a famous director whose love for an actress brings his fall. Flopping on release, it is now a revered, melancholic masterpiece with sublime black-and-white photography and songs.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
