Guru

A grumpy boxing coach takes on a young, rebellious woman under his wings and starts training her for the world championship. But their biggest battle has to be fought outside the ring.

Directed by Sudha Kongara Prasad, Guru leans on a strong ensemble — Venkatesh, Ritika Singh, Mumtaz Sorcar — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 2017.
