Old hand painted Indian movie poster of the classic Bengali film, Bandi (1978) for sale.

This is an actual surviving vintage publicity poster of the 1978 film that featured Bengali superstar Uttam Kumar in the lead role. Utpal Dutt and Amjad Khan also starred in this film.

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

This poster was originally designed in hand painted oil on canvas format by a small time art studio in Kolkata, making this poster highly collectible.. The design of this old Bengali film poster captures the star cast in quirky portraits set against a bright yellow background.
