Highly collectible, hand drawn vintage Bollywood poster of the hit Hindi film Ram Balram (1980) for sale.

This is an actual surviving poster of the 1980 film that featured two of the biggest superstars in Indian cinema of the time, Amitabh Bachchan and Dharmendra. Printed and circulated somewhere during the release of the film, this hand painted vintage movie poster was originally designed for publicity of the film but never ended up being used.

This poster was originally designed on a hand painted canvas by the greatest and highest paid Bollywood movie poster artist of all time, Diwakar Karkare, making it very collectable. The poster bears the original signature of Diwakar on the bottom right corner.

This beautiful hand drawn old Indian cinema poster was designed by the most sought after Bollywood movie poster artist in the country. It features highly accurate hand painted renditions of the three key characters in the film – angry young man Amitabh Bachchan, the most handsome Bollywood actor of the time, Dharmendra, and Bollywood’s greatest villain, Amjad Khan.

Released in 1980, Ram Balram starred Dharmendra as “Ram” and Amitabh Bachchan as “Balram.” Zeenat Aman and Rekha were paired opposite the two, while Ajit, Amjad Khan and Prem Chopra were cast as villains in the film. The film marked the third successful venture of Bollywood’s biggest superstars of the time, Amitabh Bachchan and Dharmendra, who previously were seen in Chupke Chupke and the cult classic, Sholay.
