Photographic lobby still for the Hindi film 'Jawahar' (proper noun), released in the year 1960.

The still shows a scene where Balraj Sahni (character unidentified) is holding a young boy with both hands, in front of a policeman. The scene probably took place in Sahni's home, evident by his outfit (a polka dot robe over a set of pyjamas), the sofa, and the flowers on the window sill. He is lovingly holding the arms of the boy from behind, and has his eyes closed. The boy's mouth is open and hands together, suggesting fear. The policeman's figure is slightly blurry due to his position close to the camera on the left of the frame. He is wearing his policeman's hat, has his left hand over his right and is looking towards Sahni and the boy.

Below the image (in the border) is text that reads (from left to right) 'KULDEEP PRODUCTIONS'', followed by 'JAWAHAR' (in English, and below that in Devanagari and Urdu), followed by 'PRODUCED BY LEKHRAJ BHAKRI'.
