Asli Naqli

Classic hand drawn movie poster of the hit Hindi film Asli-Naqli (1962) for sale.

Featured here for sale is a rare surviving old hand drawn movie poster of Asli-Naqli. Directed by Hrishikesh Mukherjee, the film starred Dev Anand, Sadhana Shivdasani and Sandhya Roy in pivotal roles.

Printed and circulated a few years after the first release of the film (somewhere in the 1960s), this classic hand drawn movie poster was originally designed for publicity of the film but never ended up being used.

Asli Naqli was one of the early successes of noted film director Hrishikesh Mukherjee, making this classic hand drawn movie poster highly collectible!

This hand drawn Bollywood poster was originally designed in oil on canvas format by a small time art studio in Kolkata, giving it a very quirky appearance.

Dev Anand is seen prominently in the poster wearing his trademark cap in a very quirky hand drawn avatar. Sadhana appears alongside in an equally quirky hand drawn portrait. The entire hand drawn movie poster is set against a brick wall background.

Asli Naqli is fondly remembered for its amazing soundtrack composed by Shankar Jaikishan. A song from the film “Tera Mera Pyar Amar” sung by Lata Mangeshkar is played till today.
