The makers of
Jalebi released the first poster of the film online yesterday. Rhea Chakraborty
was seen hanging out of a train window to kiss debutante Varun Mitra. Along
with the poster, producer Mahesh Bhatt wrote: "In this changing shifting
world where the old stories have collapsed and no new story has yet emerged to
replace them, comes a story of everlasting love. Here is the #Jalebiposter
(sic)."
The poster was
indeed good looking, but there was something that kept ticking the minds of
fans. Soon enough, they realised that the pic was a copy (or as they say,
inspired) of an iconic Korean War photo. Have a look:

Talking of the iconic photo, from the Korean War, it was clicked back in the
1950s. A soldier of the 160th Infantry Regiment, who was leaving for the Korean
War, was captured by former Los Angeles Times photographer Frank Q Brown. The
soldier in the photograph is Robert Maye was kissing his wife Gloria, right
before his train was departing taking him away for the Korean War.
