Guru

The movie deals with the contemporary political situation which uses religion as a weapon for their political stability. The film shows the redeem of a man. This was the first film from mollywood to get oscar nomination

Highly metaphorical movie with multiple layers of meaning, the story bears some thematic resemblance with Plato's Allegory of The Cave. The movie makes a strong statement on various extreme divisions in the society, and the resulting conflicts and violence; evils which lie deep within one's own mind and reflected in the world. The movie portraits this human predicament as a result of the ignorance into the true nature of things. Guru himself can be regarded as a symbol of the manifestation of the supreme liberating knowledge.

A great story that affects the mystical life of the human mind from an idea that has conjoined the social condition of the modern age and affects an existential life and the existing life of the people The making of the film was reminiscent of everyone's attention , Guru ... that was a movie. The valley of the blind is beautiful and picturesque ... The question and the answer is a painting of how cruel religious thinking can be blind.

A movie that still holds importance in our current world where people are killed for religious misconceptions. The metaphorical descriptions of our superstitions and ignorance showed in this movie are so excellent that it offers an insight into general human imbecility. The movie is severely underrated in spite of Mohanlal sir's incomparable acting performance.

Perhaps one of the very few brilliant Malayalam movies that was made during the 90's. The movie uses simple and powerful metaphors to convey the message that is still relevant. I think this movie has industries best in every respective fields. Cinematography and Production Design in this film is one of the key attractions.
