A grindingly conventional comedy that insists on tying up its subplots in pretty ribbons and bows.

A generally entertaining but rather old-fashioned romantic comedy.
A film that tries constantly to amuse, but succeeds only fitfully.
Agreeable and slipshod in equal fashion, The Guru illustrates the subtle distinction between stupidity and goofiness.
Hits more laughs than it misses and its characters are likable, empathetic people.
The Guru turns out to be just a flirtation with the musical rather than a full-on embrace. That's a shame because the musical interludes are where the film wears its heart and finds its soul.
Bright dialogue and finely embroidered performances adorn The Guru like festive beading on a pair of made-in-India bedroom slippers.
