Born on July 9, 1925, the auteur director died by suicide in 1965. But in his 39 years, Dutt brought to life his passion for art through his rich and interesting filmography, which includes not just classics like Pyaasa and Kaagaz Ke Phool, but also entertainers like Baazi, Jaal, Aar Paar, Mr and Mrs 55, and CID.
