Guide goes to Cannes

Is the first Indian film to be included in its archives

Forty-five years after its release, Dev Anand's Guide has achieved international recognition. The Cannes Film Festival Committee recently wrote to the veteran star to send a print for its archives. No wonder, he is ecstatic and calls it a huge honour for him and those involved in its making. In fact, Dev Anand believes the recognition proves that it still appeals to audiences the way it had done at the time of its release.
