Guddi is a 1971 Indian Hindi drama film, directed by Hrishikesh Mukherjee. The film stars Dharmendra, Jaya Bhaduri Bachchan, Utpal Dutt, and Om Prakash. The story follows the life of a young girl named Guddi (Jaya Bhaduri Bachchan) who is infatuated with the Bollywood actor Dharmendra. Guddi’s daydreams revolve around Dharmendra, and she is determined to meet him in person. With the help of her grandfather, Guddi eventually meets Dharmendra and is completely starstruck. The story then follows Guddi’s journey of coming to terms with the idea that her hero is a human, just like her.

Guddi is a heartwarming tale of innocence and growing up. It is a classic example of Hrishikesh Mukherjee’s trademark lighthearted storytelling. The film contains some truly memorable performances, particularly from Jaya Bhaduri Bachchan, who perfectly captures Guddi’s wide-eyed dreamer. The music by Vasant Desai is also iconic, and the song “Humko Mann Ki Shakti Dena” is still popular today.

Overall, Guddi is an enjoyable film that is sure to bring a smile to your face.
