  1. Ankit Sharma

    Fantastic biography! The author beautifully portrays Guru Dutt’s passion and struggles. A must-read for anyone interested in Indian cinema history.

  2. Akash Arora

    An okay read. Nothing special, but provides a basic overview of Guru Dutt’s career. I felt it lacked depth and personal insights.

  3. Kumar Keshav

    A decent book, but I was hoping for more analysis of his films. The biographical details were interesting, but the film criticism felt lacking.

  4. Vaibhav Anand

    A fascinating look at Guru Dutt’s life. I enjoyed learning more about his films and struggles, but the writing felt a bit dry at times. Still worth reading for film buffs.

  5. Linu Jangid

    Found this book quite informative. It shed light on his personal life which I didn’t know much about. The book could have been organized better though.

  6. Vamshi Teja Enagandhula

    A very detailed explanation of Guru Dutt’s life and work! This book is well-written and gives the reader an understanding of what the director had to go through.

  7. Sachi S

    Enjoyed the book. It’s a simple biography, but it brings out some important details. It could have been longer with more information though.

  8. Anant Kumar Yadav

    Interesting read, however, I felt some parts were exaggerated. The information of his movies were great. It’s good for beginners to know Guru Dutt.

  9. Nikhil Kumar

    The book was easy to read and understand, but the quality wasn’t great. Some of the pages had ink issues.

    A mixed bag. Some chapters were captivating, while others dragged. Overall, I learned a lot about Guru Dutt, but it wasn’t a consistently engaging experience.

    A simple book to read, but a little too short in my opinion. I thought there could be more explanations on his movies.

    Good book to know about Guru Dutt. This book will give you some important details about his childhood and his love for cinema. A good read!
