Pyaasa (Hindi: प्यासा; Urdu: پیاسا; English: Thirsty) is a 1957 Indian film produced and directed by Guru Dutt. The film tells the story of struggling poet, Vijay (Guru Dutt), trying to make his works known in post-independence India. Gulabo (Waheeda Rehman in her first major leading role in Hindi cinema), a prostitute with a heart of gold,[1] eventually helps him get his poems published. The music was composed by S.D. Burman.
With commercial success of thrillers like Baazi, Jaal, Aar Paar, C.I.D. and comedies Mr. & Mrs. '55, Guru Dutt and his studio were financially secure and established. He could now make movies he really wanted to make, including Pyaasa. In 2002, Pyaasa was ranked at #160 on the Sight & Sound critics' and directors' poll for all-time greatest films.[2] In 2005, Pyaasa was rated as one of the 100 best films of all time by Time Magazine, which called it "the soulfully romantic of the lot."[3] Indiatimes Movies ranks the movie amongst the Top 25 Must
Plot-Story
Vijay (Guru Dutt) is an unsuccessful poet whose works are not taken seriously by publishers or his brothers (who sell his poems as waste paper). Unable to bear their taunting that he is a good for nothing, he stays away from home and is often out on the streets. He encounters a good-hearted prostitute named Gulabo (Waheeda Rehman), who is enamoured with his poetry and falls in love with him. He also encounters his ex-girlfriend Meena (Mala Sinha) from college and finds out that she is married to a big publisher Mr. Ghosh (Rehman) for financial security, who hires him as a servant to find out more about him and Meena. A dead beggar to whom Vijay gave his coat and whom he tries to save unsuccessfully from the path of a running train is mistaken for Vijay. Gulabo goes to Ghosh and gets his poems published. Ghosh does so feeling he can exploit the poems and make a killing. But Vijay is alive and in hospital after the train mishap.

Ghosh and Shyam, Vijay's close friend, refuse to recognise him and he is committed to a mental asylum since he insists he is Vijay and is thought to be mad. Vijay's brothers too are bought off by Ghosh not to recognize him and a memorial is held for the dead poet. Vijay with the help of his friend Abdul Sattar (Johnny Walker) escapes from the mental asylum and reaches the memorial service where he denounces this corrupt and materialistic world. Seeing that Vijay is alive his friend and brothers take side with a rival publisher for more money and declare this is Vijay. At a function to honour him, Vijay becomes sick of all the hypocrisy in the world around him and declares he is not Vijay. He then leaves with Gulabo to start a new life.

Lyrics -
tang aa chuke hai kash-ma-kash-e-zindagi se ham...
Parts of this Ghazal were sung by Mohd. Rafi in this song.

taNg aa chuke haiN kash-ma-kash-e-zindagi se ham
Thukraa na deiN, jahaaN ko kahiiN bedili se ham

maayoosi-e-maaal-e-muhabbat na poochhiye
apnoN se pesh aaye haiN begaanagii se ham

lo aaj hamne toR diyaa rishta-e-ummeed
lo ab kabhii gilaa na kareiNge kisii se ham

ubhreiNge ek baar abhii dil ke valvale
go dab gaye haiN baar-e-Gham-e-zindagii se ham

gar zindagii meiN mil gayee phir ittafaaq se
poochheiNge apnaa haal tirii bebasii se ham

allah re fareb-e-masheeyat k aaj tak
duniyaa ke zulm sahte rahe Khamushii se ham

Glossary:

kash-ma-kash-e-zindagi = lifes puzzles, confusions
maayoosi-e-maaal-e-muhabbat = the disappointement because of the result of love
rishta-e-ummeed = the relation with hope
baar-e-Gham-e-zindagii = the weight of lifes worries
fareb-e-masheeyat = divine scam! (for lack of a better word perhaps)
