Tomorrow is the 100th birth anniversary of Hindi cinema's most brilliant actor and filmmaker Guru Dutt. Guru Dutt was such a personality who is not in this world today, but his films and stories are still alive. Although everyone knows about Guru Dutt's films, but very few people know that Guru Dutt's real name was something else.

'Vakat ne kiya kya hasin sitam hum rahe na hum ...tum rahe na tum...'. One often has to forget oneself to go on the stage of acting. If one cannot forget oneself and adopt the character, if one sees him on screen or on stage and the tongue is not forced to say that this is someone else, then it is not acting, sir. Hindi cinema has also had some such amazing actors, who used to come on screen and one felt like flowing with them. One of those famous personalities was Guru Dutt, one of the most brilliant actors of Hindi cinema.

Today is Guru Dutt's 100th birth anniversary. Guru Dutt was not only a great actor, but also a very capable director and filmmaker. He created such a world on screen behind the camera that we still get lost in it. Today new filmmakers are working on the style of the films that Guru Dutt made years ago. He made many great films in the 1950s and 1960s like 'Pyaasa', 'Kagaz Ke Phool', 'Sahib Bibi Aur Ghulam' and 'Chaudhvin Ka Chand'.

Was born in bangalore

Although everyone knows about Guru, but very few people know that Guru Dutt's real name was not Guru Dutt. It was love that made him change his name. However, this love was not for a person but for a city, and the name of that city was Kolkata. Guru Dutt's real name was Vasant Kumar Shivshankar Padukone. This name was given to him by his maternal uncle. Guru Dutt was born on 9 July in Bangalore, but his childhood was spent in Kolkata.

This city was close to Guru Dutt's heart

Kolkata was very close to Guru Dutt's heart. He assimilated Bengali culture and started speaking Bengali. During his time in Kolkata, the name "Guru Dutt" became auspicious for him, and he adopted it. In fact, the word Guru Dutt is considered very auspicious in Bengali culture. In such a situation, for his love for Kolkata, Vasant Kumar Shivshankar Padukone changed his identity forever and thus Hindi cinema got its 'Guru Dutt'.
