Sarfarosh

Hand painted Bollywood posters for sale: Sarfarosh (1985).

This is an actual surviving original vintage Bollywood poster of the 1985 Hindi action drama directed by Dasari Narayana Rao that starred Jeetendra in a double role along with Sridevi and Leena Chandavarkar. The film was a remake of the old Telugu movie Sardar Papa Rayudu (1980).

Released under Jeetendra’s Tirupati Pictures banner, dialogues of Sarfarosh (1985) were written by Kader Khan. Prem Chopra, Ranjeet, Kader Khan, Asrani, Nirupa Roy, Pran, Bharat Bhushan, Bindu and Satyendra Kapoor played supporting roles in the film.

Printed and circulated during the debut release of the film in theaters (somewhere in 1985), this hand painted Bollywood poster was originally designed for publicity of the film but never ended up being used.

Originally designed in hand painted oil on canvas format by a Bollywood poster design studio in Bombay, this Sarfarosh poster features a striking design in vivid colors.

The lead couple, Jeetendra and Sridevi are seen in a stunning full length illustration against a floral background in this old Bollywood poster. They appear in a dancing pose.

Typography used in this Bollywood poster is entirely in English with the title seen in red in a very creatively designed slanted angle.

The soundtrack album of Sarfarosh (1985) was composed by Laxmikant-Pyarelal. One of the dance numbers from the film, “Chor Chor Chor, Chori Ho Gayi” sung by Kishore Kumar and Asha Bhosle became popular at the time of the film’s release.
