Atul, who decided to make the documentary to portray the plight of the artisans and their legacy, decided that it was fitting that another artisan makes the poster for the film.And so, he decided to rope in the artist who made the hand-painted mural outside YRF studios.

" I thought it would be fitting to pull an artisan (of film posters) out from obscurity and ask him to make aposter for this film. So I went to the person whose name is signed on that wall in Yash Raj Studios and he agreed to do aposter for this documentary. The artist's name is Yashwant Parab and he started his career with Mr. BR Chopra in the 50s with a film called Ek Hi Rasta. Yashwant Parab was just a young graduate from JJ School Of Arts then. From there on, he went on to design posters for many veteran filmmakers including Bimal Roy and Yash Chopra and had a 25 year long innings."
