Letters in Hindi films with beautiful handwritings

Charming love letters, curt chitthi announcing breakup, emotional requests, and blackmail bids — here’s a list of filmi letters with nice handwritings.

Superb penmanship in this poster of Bimal Roy’s Prem Patra (1962) where the titular entity is both the cause of conflict and its resolution.

This impressively written note in Hum Tum Aur Woh (1971). Too bad it’s about Helen dumping Ashok Kumar for being poor and even taking away her photograph from him.

Nargis’ tragic farewell message to Shahabuddin in Pakeezah (1972).

Uphaar’s (1973) immature, unlettered bride’s endearingly matter-of-fact query when she finally learns to write.

*She even drew a bird.*

An evergreen song of love and romantic letters — Pal pal dil ke paas (Blackmail, 1973).

Prem’s emo I-love-you-so-much-it-hurts chitthi to Suman in Maine Pyar Kiya (1989). Full marks for nice, legible writing.

Chandni reading Rohit’s pretty letter in a pretty garden. (Chandni, 1989)

A lovely looking letter to Kiran in the opening scene of Darr (1993).

This super spiteful letter in Phool (1993). The handwriting is neat nonetheless.

Eklavya’s emotional request to his son in Eklavya: The Royal Guard (2007).

Jodhaa’s plea for help to her brother in Jodhaa Akbar (2008).
