No Celebrities Were Harmed: The Indian Guru Baba is clearly based on real life spiritual charlatans like Sri Chinmoy. | |

| Holy Smoke! / int_4f62bde6 | comment |
Kavorka Man: PJ is not particuarly good-looking. Even so, he has sex with two different beautiful (and much younger) women during the film, Ruth and Yvonne, while it's also revealed he's got a committed girlfriend too, Carol, who's also quite attractive. Both of them even come onto him and not the opposite. | |

Ms. Fanservice: Ruth is a beautiful young woman, spending a large part of the film wearing a tight-fitting blouse which outlines her large bust, along with showing full frontal nudity in a couple scenes. She also makes out with another woman in a club, turning PJ on while he watches. | |
