Old Bollywood poster for sale of the romantic Hindi film Atithee (1978).

This is an actual surviving old Bollywood poster of the 1978 Hindi movie directed by Arabind Sen that featured Shashi Kapoor, Shatrughan Sinha & Shabana Azmi in lead roles.

Printed and circulated during the original first release of the film in the late 1970s, this old Bollywood poster was printed for publicity of the film but never ended up being used.

This old Bollywood poster was originally designed in hand painted oil on canvas format by one of the most talented Bollywood poster designers of all time, V.G. Parchure of Pamart Studio fame. This old Bollywood poster bears the printed signature of Bollywood poster painter V.G. Parchure in the name of his art studio, i.e. Pamart on the bottom left hand corner.

Bollywood poster painter Parchure’s mastery over the paint brush is clearly seen in this spectacular old Bollywood poster. Highly realistic hand painted portraits of actors Shashi Kapoor and Shabana Azmi locked in a passionate gaze are seen prominently on the top. Smaller portraits of Shatrughan Sinha, Deven Verma, & Vidya Sinha are seen at the bottom of the poster.

Broad visible brush strokes are seen in the background of this old Bollywood poster for sale.
