Barsaat
by Unknown
by Unknown
This is an old hand-drawn Bollywood movie poster for Raj Kapoor's 1949 hit Barsaat, which was directed by the "Showman of Indian cinema" and starred him opposite Nargis. Nimmi, an actress, made her cinematic debut with this project. Raj Kapoor and Nargis are depicted in a stunningly passionate posture on this whimsically hand-drawn Bollywood poster. The artwork on this rare Barsaat (1949) movie poster was so well-known that it served as the model for R K Studios' logo. This unusual Raj Kapoor movie poster was printed and spread somewhere in the 1950s or 1960s but was never really used to promote the film.
