Was replying to a music fan from other group and found out some scribblings of mine, taken down from the old magazines. This was when Guru was in the best form of his acting career ( late 50's ) and he was invited for a few issues of Filmfare to answer the readers' questions.

here are a few of them...some of them funny, some serious and some very philosophical and relevant to Guru's life

Wish he had done more than 3/4 issues :-(

Will find more and send whenever I find them
