Guru: Amake Sobai Jaane (English: Master: Everyone knows me) or simply Guru is a 2003 Indian Bengali-language gangster action thriller film co-written and directed by Swapan Saha. Produced by Nispal Singh under the banner of Surinder Films, it stars Mithun Chakraborty in the titular role, alongside an ensemble cast consisting of Jisshu Sengupta, Rachna Banerjee, Kaushik Banerjee, Laboni Sarkar, Kharaj Mukherjee, Locket Chatterjee and Kalyani Mondal in other pivotal roles, with Tapas Paul and Subhendu Chatterjee in guest appearances. The soundtrack of the film was composed by Babul Bose, while the background score was by S. P. Venkatesh. It revolves around a middle-class rickshaw driver of Kolkata named Raja, who always believes in non-violence and keeps himself away from any troubled situation. But all of a sudden to save his family from a notorious criminal named Kedarnath, he has to reveal his true identity from the past, of a dreaded gangster named Guru, which was hidden from his family as well as people of the area, to whom he was known to be a normal and frightened person. It is an unofficial remake of Baashha (1995) which itself is loosely based on Hum (1991).

The name of the film was borrowed from the song Ei Duniya Ajob Chiriyakhana sung by Vinod Rathod from this film itself.
