9 reviews for Ten Years with Guru Dutt

  1. Arijit Debnath

    A fascinating look into Guru Dutt’s world. The writing is engaging, though I wished for more depth on Alvi’s individual contributions. Still, a worthwhile read for cinema buffs.

  2. Roshan Antony

    It’s a good book about the golden era of cinema. It is not something I will read over and over, but I did learn a thing or two about Guru Dutt.

  3. Anurag Jaiswal

    Incredible book! I feel like I have learned so much from that era of Indian cinema! I would recommend this to anyone interested in film.

  4. Muskaan Grover

    Loved the behind-the-scenes stories! Gives a great insight into their creative process. Highly recommended for anyone interested in classic Indian cinema.

  5. Siddharth Kaushik

    Enjoyable read, though I felt it glossed over some of the more complex aspects of their relationship. Worth it for the film trivia alone.

  6. Abhishek Sourabh

    An interesting perspective, but feels a bit one-sided at times. I expected more balance and less hero-worship. The anecdotes were fun. Easy to read.

  7. Madhav Sharma

    An okay book. I felt like it was missing something. It’s an interesting read, but not a captivating tale. It was informative.

  8. Nooli Siri

    A decent book, but not as groundbreaking as I’d hoped. It’s a good starting point for learning about Guru Dutt and Abrar Alvi’s dynamic.

  9. Abhay Kumar Rajak

    Absolutely captivating! A must-read for any film lover. The author beautifully captures the essence of their partnership. I learned so much.
