Rekha film posters for sale: Pran Jaye Par Vachan Na Jaye (1974).

Featured here is an actual surviving original vintage Bollywood poster of the old 1974 Hindi action film directed by S. Ali Raza that featured Sunil Dutt, Rekha and Premnath in key roles.

Produced by Ratan Mohan, Pran Jaye Par Vachan Na Jaye (1974) also starred Jeevan, Bindu, Madan Puri, Ranjeet and Jayshree T. in supporting roles.

The film featured a highly controversial scene depicting glamor queen Rekha semi-naked, which created widespread publicity and scandal.

Printed and circulated during the first release of the film in theaters (somewhere in 1974), this old Rekha film poster was originally designed for publicity of the film but never ended up being used.

This Pran Jaye Par Vachan Na Jaye poster was originally designed in hand painted oil on canvas format by Bollywood poster painter Dharmdas from Jodhpur. The printed signature of the artist is seen on the bottom right of this original Rekha film poster.

This Bollywood poster features stunning hand drawn artwork. Sunil Dutt is seen holding a rifle in one hand and lifting up Rekha with his other hand in a dramatic illustration at the center. An army of dacoits riding on horses is seen illustrated behind them. The background is a minimal white except for the center that depicts a plume of smoke rising from a fire.

Bollywood poster painter Dharmdas captures the intensity and expression in Sunil Dutt’s face with incredible accuracy using expert brush strokes. Rekha is shown defenseless and helpless, clinging on to the shirt of the actor in this Pran Jaye Par Vachan Na Jaye poster.

Typography used in this old Bollywood poster is primarily in Devanagari Hindi, with a translation of the title seen in both English as well as Urdu. The title appears in an striking font in blue with a yellow border.

The soundtrack album of Pran Jaye Par Vachan Na Jaye (1974) was composed by legendary music composer O.P. Nayyar. It featured hit Asha Bhosle songs such as “Chain Se Humko Kabhi Aapne Jeene Na Diya” and “Bikaner Ki Chunri Odhi.”
