Roti Kapda Aur Makaan

Old hand drawn Bollywood movie poster of the blockbuster Hindi film, Roti Kapda Aur Makaan (1974) for sale.

This is an actual surviving old Bollywood movie poster of the 1974 Hindi film that was written, produced, directed by and starring Manoj Kumar. The film also starred the biggest superstar of Indian cinema, Amitabh Bachchan in a supporting role.

The title of the movie was based on the bare necessities of life, i.e. Food, Clothing & Shelter. The film was the highest grossing Bollywood movie of 1974 and one of the biggest blockbusters of Manoj Kumar.

Roti Kapda Aur Makaan also boosted superstar Amitabh Bachchan’s film career, who at the time was looking to make a mark in Bollywood, making this poster highly collectible!

Printed and circulated a few years after the original first release run of the film (somewhere in the late 1970s), this old hand painted Bollywood poster was designed and printed for publicity of the film but never ended up being used.

This poster was originally designed on a hand painted canvas by a small time poster design studio in Delhi, giving it a very quirky appearance.

A quirky portrait of Manoj Kumar is seen at the center of the poster, signifying his lead presence in the film. He is flanked on either side by supporting actors Shashi Kapoor and superstar Amitabh Bachchan. This old Amitabh movie poster features the superstar painted in a dull white avatar with deep red lips.

This poster has been graded as ★ As Is due to tattered borders, small missing pieces as well as visible water stains seen clearly in the photograph. Please study the accompanying image carefully before making a purchase.
