Pyaasa Ratings & Reviews
IndieWire
Siddhant Adlakha
Pyaasa runs the gamut of musical mood and tone, and yet it feels like following a wild butterfly along a singular journey as it flutters on the wind.
Chicago Reader
Fred Camper
The final third of this 1957 Indian musical is convoluted but also moving, as dramatic compositions heighten the narrative conflict between artistic idealism and an avaricious society.
Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz
Masterfully manages to let us know in a meaningful way the timeless message of how cruelly the world treats its true artists.
