Guru

I went to watch Guru tonight, a new release Hindi film (with no subtitles.) Without understanding a single word said, I found it to be a remarkable and extremely captivating movie. Granted, I had translation throughout but the acting was phenomenal nevertheless. It is a story of a man named Guru who starts a textile company from scratch and becomes India's wealthiest and most powerful business man. The movie also shared a lot of Indian culture (wedding scenes, religious scenes) that helped me visualize a lot of cultural practices. I was told I had to watch a few Bollywood movies before I left even though it'd be in another language, this was well worth the adventure! For more info on the movie, click here.
