Toofan

Old Amitabh Bachchan movie poster of the superhero action Hindi film, Toofan (1989) for sale.

This is an actual surviving old Bollywood movie poster of the 1989 film that starred the biggest superstar of Indian cinema, Amitabh Bachchan in a memorable double role (one as superhero “Toofan” and the other as a magician).

Printed and circulated during the first release of the film (somewhere in the late 1980s), this old Amitabh movie poster was originally designed for publicity of the film but never ended up being used.

Toofan was produced by Manmohan Desai and directed by his son Ketan Desai. Amitabh Bachchan plays a superhero action figure in the film, using a crossbrow as a weapon.

This old Amitabh movie poster was originally designed by creating a collage of key photographic stills on a board by leading Bollywood poster designer Chandrakant of Studio Chandrakant fame. The typography and background elements are hand painted.

Beautiful retro still photographs of lead actors Amitabh Bachchan, Amrita Singh, Meenakshi Seshadri, Pran, Goga Kapoor and Farooq Sheikh are seen in this old Bollywood poster. The original angry young man of Bollywood, Amitabh Bachchan is seen in the avatar of a caped crusader riding a horse in this old Bollywood movie poster.
