Abhishek Bachchan Shares An Unknown Trivia About Film ‘Guru’. Could You Find This Continuity Error In Film?

Abhishek Bachchan is one of the most popular faces of the Indian film industry and his film ‘Guru’ is undoubtedly an amazing film, which earned critics and audiences’ love. The film, which was released in 2007, left a mark on the hearts and minds of the audience.

He shared a behind the scene moment with his fans which took them down the memory lane from the Madurai sets of ‘Guru’. The actor also shared some interesting and unknown facts about the Mani Ratnam film, which included a continuity error in the song ‘Tere Bina’.

Apparently, the song ‘Tere Bina’ was shot long after the principal photography of the film Guru ended. He wrote on his Instagram post, “If you look closely during the song I had long hair, which I had grown for my film Jhoom Barabar Jhoom.”

Abhishek Bachchan also informed us that the director of the film Jhoom Barabar Jhoom, Shaad Ali, had adjusted the dates of the shoot so that Abhishek could finish work on Guru as well.

#flashbackfriday On the sets of Guru in October 2006 in Madurai. Mani had decided to shoot the song Tere Bina ( my all time favourite) much after we had finished principle photography. If you look closely during the song I had long hair, which I had grown for my film Jhoom Barabar Jhoom. Since this shoot happened in the middle of JBJ's shoot (Shaad, the director of JBJ can never say no to Mani as he used to be Mani's assistant and considers him to be like family, hence adjusted his dates to enable this shoot) I just shaved my beard but obviously couldn't cut my hair. They used to pin up my hair during this shoot to look shorter and match the continuity look of Gurukant Desai. This photo was taken whilst I was seeing the playback of the now famous scene where Guru says the very famous dialogue " जब लोग तुम्हारे ख़िलाफ़ बोलने लगे, समझ लो तरक़्क़ी कर रहे हो।”. Mani, last minute decided to include this scene in the film. So we used to shoot all night for the song, sleep a couple of hours and then shoot this scene in the daytime in the patio of the hotel we were staying at in Madurai. I think it was the Taj. A fun fact. Also seen in this photo is one of my best friends Gaurav. Babu, as I fondly call him had come to visit me and Aishwarya during the shoot as he stays in Chennai. Just as we were about to begin the scene Mani decided he wanted to shoot this scene in OS ( over the shoulder) of the "minister". Since we didn't have an actor on hand, they ( Mani and @dirrajivmenon ) literally put a very reluctant Babu into the shot as he was on set watching the shoot and made him into the "minister". I don't think he will ever forgive us for doing that to him and has since never visited any shoot of mine! ?
