About Hand-Painted Vintage Movie Posters
Real Old-School Filmi Vibe
I’m Kafeel Artist, painting from Old Delhi where Bollywood and Hollywood nostalgia runs deep. What you get is not a print, not a copy-paste job, but hand-painted movie posters like the ones you saw outside theaters back in the day.
How I Paint Your Story
I do two types - classic replicas and custom portraits.
- Want a hand-painted Bollywood poster of Sholay or Casablanca? I’ll recreate it, no shortcuts, only brushwork and soul.
- Or maybe you want your own face in a dramatic retro film poster style? Send me your photo, I’ll add that filmi drama and glam.
People call me for weddings, cafes, parties, or just to get that old-school retro film poster painting feel at home. I’ve made posters for collectors from all over - some just want a piece of the past, some want to be the hero in their own movie story.
Lettering and Languages
I do all the classic poster scripts - Hindi, Urdu, English, Farsi, Arabic. That’s how you get the real vintage cinema poster artist look. Whether it’s canvas, big hoardings, or life-sized cut-outs, I can paint it all.
Why I Paint
Art is my happiness. I believe in spreading joy, doing happy, being happy.
Jo insaan ko khushi de, wahi kaam sahi (Work that brings happiness to people is the right work).
