Guru is a 1989 Indian Hindi-language action film directed by Umesh Mehra, starring Nutan, Mithun Chakraborty, Sridevi and Shakti Kapoor.[1][2][3] The film was a huge commercial success. Incidentally, after 14 years, Chakraborty worked in a 2003 film of the same name in Bengali, as well as a 2007 film of the same name, also in Hindi, 18 years later.
The film's plot is based on Kaakki Sattai starring Kamal Haasan, a 1985 Tamil film.[4][5]
Gaurav Shankar "Guru" Shrivastav's ambition is to become an upright police officer, but he has not been selected. His sole strength is his lady love Rama. As Guru's ambition fails, he turns to alcohol, dacoity, and thuggism. He finally joins Manu's lethal gang to take revenge on the police force, which blocked his ambition. Uma (Rama's lookalike), is Vicky's important gang member. One day, Vicky gets the confidential message about an undercover cop in his gang.
