Guru is a 2007 Indian drama film directed and co-written by Mani Ratnam. It was produced by Mani Ratnam and his brother G. Srinivasan under their production company, Madras Talkies. The film features Abhishek Bachchan, Aishwarya Rai, Madhavan, Vidya Balan, Arya Babbar, and Mithun Chakraborty in the leading roles. The film also has Mallika Sherawat in a guest appearance.
