Pyaasa - 1957
There are a few movies made on the harsh truth of society, and without any drama factor they lose the box office charm, that's not the case with Pyaasa. Pyaasa is the perfect combination of the harsh reality shown and the drama in society. Where a poor guy struggling his young age in the bitter truth of society where love and his "Shayari" is not only the factor he needs to survive in the world but a good-paying job, status, and money also. Where the first half of the film shows the struggle of Vijay (Guru Dutt), revolving around his needs and love, the second half shows the vicious truths of society very dramatically where the money is the only bigger truth, even more than the relationships. All the situations are beautifully narrated in the shayaris and songs, making it another level experience to watch. Next level! Pyaasa is one of its kind that comes rarely and is a masterpiece to watch or to adapt in any cinema. Brilliantly made!
