In India, this movie is considered a textbook for directing films. I would say it's a textbook for acting, editing, song-writing, and music direction. If Vijay Anand's direction made this movie a classic, S.D. Burman's music made it unforgettable.Of course,... Read more at imdb.com

Ironic because Guide today is regarded as perhaps the best film that Vijay Anand had made and rightly so.
Vijay Anand was approached again and this time he took on the film albeit reluctantly.
Never has she looked, acted or danced better!

The film won many awards.
