Fame
One of the most acclaimed directors. Pyaasa (1957) and Kagaz Ke Phool (1959) often make the list of top 100 movies ever made world-wide. Never directed another film after box-office failure of Kagaz Ke Phool.
Trivia
An affair with Protege, Waheeda Rehman, led to his ultimate demise. Started as a choreographer. A mix-up at a laundry made him wear shirt of actor Dev Anand, was caught by him on the film set, and that led to a close bonding.
