Guide (1966)

Cast: Dev Anand, Waheeda Rehman, Leela Chitnis, Anwar Husain, Kishore Sahu

Director: Vijay Anand

Music: S.D. Burman

Lyrics: Shailendra

Capsule Review: Vijay Anand smoothly recreates R.K. Narayan’s complex and layered novel, and mixes existentialism with the song-and-dance formula. Waheeda Rehman comes to life as the capricious, defiant and enchanting Rosy, and Dev Anand is every bit Raju Guide who goes from guiding tourists in Rajasthan to guiding the much-married Rosy out of a suffocating marriage into a super-career as a dancer. In the last lap of this fascinating and beguiling drama of love, deception and redemption, Dev Anand is transformed into a saint, the saviour of a drought-stricken village. Rehman, in her best role had Lata Mangeshkar’s voice making Rosy a ravishing mirror of enigma and emancipation.
