Photographic lobby still for the Hindi film 'Bekhabar' (check translation), released in the
year 1965.

The still shows the setting of a reception area, featuring four male characters and
one female character. Behind the reception table, one male character is standing
towards the left of the frame, looking towards his left. A female character is standing
to the right hoding a telephone receiver to her left ear while looking at a group of men
standing on the other side of the reception. On the other side of the reception, a male
character dressed as an attendant/bell boy is standing to the right. He is wearing a long
shirt and trousers, a fabric belt tied over the waist and a Nehru cap. He is looking to
his right at anothe male character who is dressed in a half shirt and trousers. This
character (Bhagwan) seems frenzied, with his face animated, wide eyes, hands held out in a
manner of explaining/expressing. There is another male character next to this man,
who is formally dressed in a suit and has a scarf around his neck. He is bent downwards,
with his right hand nearing the handle of a suitcase, while he is looking up at the
other two men to his left with concern. The extreme top of another suitcase is visible
near the legs of the attendant, kept to his right.

On the bottom border, aligned to the centre, the credits are printed in the following
manner. From top to bottom, first comes 'BINA Chitra's', next line; 'BEKHABAR'
(English) and in Devnagri script next to it. Under the name of the film, from left to
right is 'DIRECTED BY', next line; ' NANABHAI BHATT'. Next to this is 'MUSIC',
next line; 'S. MOHINDER'. In the end is 'NEW CINE SERVICE'.
