Film poster for the Hindi film 'Khatro Ke Khiladi' (check translation), released in the year
1988.

The poster features multiple characters from the film and has been made with the cut and
paste technique using photographic cut outs from stills. In the poster, the frame is sort
of divided into diagonal halves with the image of a dagger's blade. On the top half of the
blade is a cut out of the character Rajesh's (Sanjay Dutt) face, in which there is painted
blood on his right temple as he looks upwards with eyes red with anger. On the bottom
half of the blade is a photographic cut out of the character Balwant's (Dharmendra) face
in which he looks startled and also has some painted blood near his left brow. Inside
the blade, there are face cut outs of five negative role characters. From top to bottom,
the series shows Bahadur Singh (Gulshan Grover), Jaychand (Shakti Kapoor), Jaswant
(Paresh Rawal), Amarnath (Sharat Saxena) and Balbir (Sadashiv Amrapurkar). Towards the
bottom left corner is a half-length photographic cut out of possibly the character Kavita,
played by Madhuri Dixit. Next to this image is the name of the film in Devanagari script.
Right above the word 'Khatro' in the title, is a bust-length cut out the character Rajesh (Sanjay Dutt)
holding the character Jaychand (Shakti Kapoor) by his collar. Along the bottom border,
the credits are printed as follows, 'DIRECTED BY: T. RAMA RAO', 'MUSIC: LAXMIKANT
PYARELAL'. On the top left corner, more credits are printed as 'DAMANI PICTURES
PVT. LTD. PRESENTS'.
