Street Posters in Chennai

September 11, 2012

India’s love affair with the cinema ensures a proliferation of poster imagery on the streets of Mumbai. Below are a few posters / fragments that caught my eye when I was last in Chenai in 2007. My eye is particularly drawn to the accidental juxtapositions of different posters.
