Though the film identifies itself as 'Gurudev' in patriarchal honor of its two male leads (Guru & Dev played affectionately by Rishi Kapoor & Anil Kapoor) the film should be called "Rosie" because it belongs-- almost entirely-- to the misfit character of that name played to hysterical perfection by Sridevi. She also plays another character (a pretty stage dancer who is comparatively quite dull) but Rosie is a brilliantly fleshed out comic creation, kind of a cross between Aamir Khan in Rangeela and Lucy Ricardo: she is foul, drunk, deceitful, and constantly looking to find new ways to become rich and famous. Her facial expressions are simply priceless.
The film has lots of action typical of 80s Bollywood (it was made in the late 80s but was delayed to '93 because of the director's death) but its most memorable moments belongs to Sridevi's delicious performance as a vagrant opportunist. Sridevi is just *brilliant*. Definitely recommended.
