However, while this hope exists in Pyaasa, it dies in Kaagaz Ke Phool (1959), in which loss and renunciation have a very different, mature, personal texture. Set against the crumbling studios structure, with Devdas being filmed within the film, Kaagaz Ke Phool is unspeakably romantic—an inexpressible love letter to the beauty, craft and sheer magic that is cinema. It romances the very technique of filmmaking, the fickle nature of fame, and every high and low, bane and boon that cinema offers creatively. It lovingly captures the tools that artists use to tell a cinematic story, whether it is the steps to heights of studios, lights, the spaces of studios themselves, trolleys, stages, curtains, cameras. It celebrates every person involved in the process—the editors, the musicians, the DoPs, the producers, the writers, and the process itself. It affectionately includes the little eccentricities that are accepted within the art form, the need for specificity, the firmness of wanting things done a certain way.
