This poster was made for the 1976 Indian historical drama film Mrigayaa, which was produced by K. Rajeshwara Rao and directed by Mrinal Sen. It is based on the Odia short story "Shikaar" by Bhagbati Charan Panigrahi. The movie showed how local people were treated by the British colonial administration and how Indian landlords took advantage of them in 1920s India. It also shows the friendship between a Native American tribal member who is a skilled archer and a British administrator with a penchant for wildlife hunting. The lead actors, Mithun Chakraborty and Mamata Shankar, made their feature film debuts.
