Pyaasa

Vijay (Guru Dutt) is an unsuccessful poet whose works are not taken seriously by publishers or his brothers. 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 prostitute named Gulabo who is enamoured with his poetry and falls in love with him. Gulabo goes to Ghosh and gets his poems published. However, Vijay is alive and in the hospital after the train mishap.
