Film poster for the HIndi film 'Meri Awaaz Suno' (Listen to my Voice), released in the year 1981.

The hand-painted poster features multiple characters that play a pivotal role in the film. In the
frame of the poster, in the right half, there is a full-length painting of the character Rita in a black
outfit, a depiction from the song 'Mehmanon Ko Salaam Hai Mera' (check translation), sung by
Kishore Kumar and Asha Bhosle. To the left of this image is a bust-length painting of the character
gangster Kanwar Lal or undercover Inspector Sushil Kumar, a dual role played by Jeetendra.
The character is shown holding a revolver. Below this image towards the bottom left corner area
is a bust length painting of the character Azad, played by Shakti Kapoor. To his right is a bust-
length painting of the character Ronnie, played by Ranjeet. Both of these characters are also
holding revolvers in their hands. Towards the bottom right corner is a bust-length painting of
the character Topiwala, played by Kader Khan. In the image, the character is wearing a top hat,
sunglasses and is carrying a knife in his hands. Above this image along the right border is a bust-
length painting of Inspector Sushil Singh's wife Sunita, played by Hema Malini. Along the top border,
towards the left half of the poster, first comes the banner's name in Devanagari as 'Padmalaya
Films'. Along the same line towards the left, the film title is written in Devanagari arranged in three
lines. Below the title towards the right is 'Eastmancolor' in Devanagari and towards the left is
'Sangeet' (Music), next line; 'Laxmikant Pyarelal). In the bottom right corner of the poster, the
printer's credits are printed in a very illegible manner. Some text that can be read is 'Printed by
Ashoka Advertising'.
