She is dressed in a white upper garment and a black 'dupatta', covering her bosom. She is staring away in the distance, holding a sad expression on her face.

Starting from the top, first comes 'Himalaya Films presents', next line; 'Chetan Anand's', next line; 'HAQEEQAT' (English). Right under the name in English, the name of the film is also written in Devnagri and in Urdu next to it, but the surface in this area is damaged, because of which only the Urdu script name is partly visible. Towards the extreme right, the credita are as follows. From the top, first comes 'MUSIC', next line; 'MADAN MOHAN', next line; 'LYRICS', next line; 'KAIFI AZMI'.
