Bombay movie poster for sale.

Featured here for sale is an original Bollywood poster of the 1995 cult Hindi film directed by Mani Ratnam that starred Arvind Swamy and Manisha Koirala in lead roles.

Originally released in Tamil, Bombay (1995) was also dubbed in Hindi and Telugu. The phenomenal success of the film made it the most acclaimed Tamil film of the 1990s, with its Hindi dubbed version breaking records for box office collections.

Bombay (1995) was a massive commercial as well as critical success and was screened at several international film festivals (including the Philadelphia Film Festival in 1996). It became one of the highest grossing films of the Chennai film industry upon its release. The film bagged numerous awards such at the annual National Film Awards and Filmfare Awards, besides clinching several international awards as well such as the 1995 Edinburgh International Film Festival (Scotland) award and the 2003 Jerusalem Film Festival (Israel) award.

The soundtrack album of Bombay (1995) was composed by maestro A.R. Rahman, who bagged his fourth consecutive Filmfare Best Music Director Award for his brilliant soundtrack that sold over 15 million units.

The album gave Indian cinema unforgettable tracks such as “Hamma Hamma” sung by A. R. Rahman & Remo Fernandes, “Kehna Hi Kya” sung by Chithra & A.R. Rahman and “Tu Hi Re” sung by Hariharan & Kavita Krishnamurthy.

The film is ranked among the top 20 Indian films in the British Film Institute’s rankings, making this Bombay movie poster, highly collectible!

Printed and circulated during a subsequent release run of the film (somewhere in the late 1990s), this Bombay movie poster was originally designed for publicity of the film but never ended up being used.

This old Tamil movie poster features stunning hand painted artwork and was designed originally in oil on canvas format by a poster art studio in Delhi. A large hand painted close up of Manisha Koirala is seen on the left of this Bombay movie poster in white. Arvind Swamy is seen on the right in a brilliant hand painted rendition. The top of this Bombay poster features an action packed riot scene, essential to the plot of the film.

The theme of the film caused considerable controversy due to its depiction of inter-caste relationships and religious riots. As such, the film was banned in Singapore and Malaysia upon release. Such was the historical impact of the film that a book was written on it by author Lalitha Gopalan, which was published by BFI Modern Classics in 2005.
