Vintage Bollywood poster for sale of one of the greatest Bollywood movies ever made in Indian cinema, Deewaar (1975).
This is an actual surviving original poster of the 1975 action Hindi film Deewaar that featured the biggest superstar of Indian cinema, Amitabh Bachchan in the lead role.
Deewaar (sometimes also spelled as Deewar) is considered one of the most iconic movies ever made in Indian cinema and finds mention among the cult films of Bollywood, making this rare two sheet Deewaar original poster highly collectible!
Printed and circulated a few years after the first release of Deewaar (somewhere in the 1980s), this Deewaar old movie poster was intended for publicity of the film’s local release run in Delhi but never ended up being used.
This fabulous two sheet Bollywood poster measures a stunning 80″x30″ inches (approximately) in size when its two individual sheets are joined or pasted together. The poster comprises two separate single sheets, each measuring 40″x30″ inches. When pasted together, the two sheets line up perfectly and together form one single movie poster.
This Deewaar Amitabh poster was originally designed by a small time art studio in Delhi giving it a very quirky appearance. The angry young man of Bollywood is seen in his legendary pose in this Deewaar old movie poster. Dressed as a porter, he is seen wearing the iconic lucky badge on his shoulder (bearing the serial no. 786) in this old Amitabh movie poster.
Actor Shashi Kapoor is seen taking aim in a smaller hand painted rendition on the top right hand corner of this Deewaar poster. Villain Madan Puri and actress Parveen Babi are seen in quirky hand drawn renditions at the bottom of this Amitabh Bachchan movie poster. Nirupa Roy is also seen in a photographic still in this Deewaar original poster.
Deewaar (The Wall), is a cult 1975 Hindi film directed by Yash Chopra and written by Salim-Javed. Starring the greatest superstar of Indian cinema Amitabh Bachchan, Deewaar tells the story of two impoverished brothers (played by Amitabh Bachchan and Shashi Kapoor) who struggle to survive on the indifferent streets of Mumbai after the passing away of their father.
One of them, Shashi Kapoor chooses the path of good, becoming a police officer. Amitabh on the other hand turns into a mafia don and amasses quick wealth and success. This creates an obvious divide or enmity between them, inspiring the title of the film. Deewaar is believed to be based loosely on the real life of one of Mumbai’s iconic gangsters, Haji Mastan. For preparation of his character as a gangster in the film, it is further believed that Amitabh Bachchan met Haji Mastan in person to study his mannerisms.
Deewaar is widely credited for establishing Amitabh Bachchan as the “angry young man” of Bollywood. Actress Parveen Babi was seen as the new age woman in Indian cinema, whose character appears as a liberated woman smoking and drinking, living-in with her lover – defying all traditional norms of the time. The brilliant storyline and dialogues of the film established Salim-Javed as the most sought after writers in Indian cinema. It is believed they were paid as high as actors in subsequent films they worked on, thanks to the success of Deewaar.
Deewaar bagged numerous awards, and is credited as a must see film in Indian cinema. The music of the film was composed by RD Burman. The track “Keh Doon Tumhe” was a chartbuster.
One of the dialogues from the film, “Mere Paas Maa Hai” is regarded as one of the greatest dialogues ever in Indian cinema and has inspired countless spoofs over the years.
Danny Boyle, who described Deewaar as being “absolutely key to Indian cinema”, cited the film as an influence on his Academy Award winning Slumdog Millionaire (2008).

Rare original vintage publicity poster of one of the greatest Bollywood movies ever made, Deewaar (1975) for sale.
This is an actual surviving old movie poster of the 1975 action Hindi film that featured the biggest superstar of Indian cinema, Amitabh Bachchan in the lead role. Deewaar (sometimes also spelled as Deewar) is considered one of the most iconic movies ever made in Indian cinema and finds mention among the cult films of Bollywood.
Printed and circulated a few years after the first release of Deewaar (somewhere in the early 1980s), this original movie poster celebrates Deewaar’s phenomenal success at the Filmfare Awards (where it bagged seven awards in different categories). This movie poster was intended for publicity of the film but never ended up being used.
The poster was originally designed on a hand painted canvas by the greatest and highest paid Bollywood movie poster artist of all time, Diwakar Karkare.
In the poster, artist Diwakar uses a knife to over paint Amitabh’s in order to give him a rugged or macho look. Smaller photographic still images of Shashi Kapoor, Neetu Singh, Parveen Babi and Nirupa Roy appear alongside.
The typography used in this poster is completely in English, with a translation of the title in Devanagari Hindi on the top.
Deewaar (The Wall), is a cult 1975 Hindi film directed by Yash Chopra and written by Salim-Javed. Starring the greatest superstar of Indian cinema Amitabh Bachchan, Deewaar tells the story of two impoverished brothers (played by Amitabh Bachchan and Shashi Kapoor) who struggle to survive on the indifferent streets of Mumbai after the passing away of their father.
One of them, Shashi Kapoor chooses the path of good, becoming a police officer. Amitabh on the other hand turns into a mafia don and amasses quick wealth and success. This creates an obvious divide or enmity between them, inspiring the title of the film. Deewaar is believed to be based loosely on the real life of one of Mumbai’s iconic gangsters, Haji Mastan. For preparation of his character as a gangster in the film, it is further believed that Amitabh Bachchan met Haji Mastan in person to study his mannerisms.
Deewaar is widely credited for establishing Amitabh Bachchan as the “angry young man” of Bollywood. Actress Parveen Babi was seen as the new age woman in Indian cinema, whose character appears as a liberated woman smoking and drinking, living-in with her lover – defying all traditional norms of the time. The brilliant storyline and dialogues of the film established Salim-Javed as the most sought after writers in Indian cinema. It is believed they were paid as high as actors in subsequent films they worked on, thanks to the success of Deewaar.
Deewaar bagged numerous awards, and is credited as a must see film in Indian cinema. The music of the film was composed by RD Burman. The track “Keh Doon Tumhe” was a chartbuster.
One of the dialogues from the film, “Mere Paas Maa Hai” is regarded as one of the greatest dialogues ever in Indian cinema and has inspired countless spoofs over the years.
Danny Boyle, who described Deewaar as being “absolutely key to Indian cinema”, cited the film as an influence on his Academy Award winning Slumdog Millionaire (2008).

Re-release Bollywood poster of the blockbuster Hindi film, Muqaddar Ka Sikandar (1978) for sale.
This is an actual publicity Bollywood poster of the 1978 film that featured the greatest superstar of Indian cinema, Amitabh Bachchan in the lead role.
Printed and circulated decades after the first release of the film (somewhere in the early 2000s), this Amitabh movie poster was originally designed for publicity of the recent re-release of the film but never ended up being used.
Muqaddar Ka Sikandar (Conqueror of Destiny) is a 1978 blockbuster Hindi film produced and directed by Prakash Mehra. Starring superstar Amitabh Bachchan in his fifth of nine films with Prakash Mehra, this was the top grossing film of the year and the third biggest hit of the decade after Sholay and Bobby. The films also stars Vinod Khanna, Raakhee, Rekha and Amjad Khan.
The film is believed to have created mass hype during its release – with people lining up for tickets (some even sleeping outside cinemas overnight). True to Amitabh Bachchan’s super stardom, Muqaddar Ka Sikandar broke several box office records and became a golden jubilee hit. It was remade into a Telugu film in 1980. Similar to a few of his other films, Amitabh Bachchan plays the role of an orphan in Muqaddar Ka Sikandar.
The Soundtrack was composed by brothers Kalyanji Anandji, and the songs went on to become blockbusters. Tracks like “Rote Hue Ate Hain Sab” and “O Saathi Re Tere Bina” sung by Kishore Kumar are played till today. The songs “Dil To Hai Dil” sung by Lata Mangeshkar and picturized on Raakhee became a rage as did “Salaam-e-Ishq Meri Jaan” sung by Lata Mangeshkar and picturized on Rekha.

These cards were typically displayed in foyers and lobbies inside cinemas, and were generally issued in sets of 8, 12, 16, 20, etc. Most Hindi film lobby cards have punched holes on each of their four corners for easy pinup on a cinema notice board.
