In the first part, we saw some cool minimilistic posters, which captured the very soul of the film they represented.
 
We continue the series with this lot of new minimilistic posters, which are unique in their own way. Do let us know what you think in the comments section below.

Kahaani

The people of Kolkata could never get Vidya Balan's name in the film, Vidya. So, Bidya it was.

The famous Howrah bridge forms the backdrop of the poster, best representing Kolkata, where the Sujoy Ghosh film is set.

In Mukul Anand's 1991 hit Hum, Amitabh Bachchan reminds his girl (Kimi Katkar), with some cool dance moves, that a kiss is long overdue. On Friday, then.

One of the most unforgettable dialogues in Om Shanti Om has Deepika Padukone ask Arjun Rampal for 'ek chutki sindoor,' so that they can get married.

Of course, the chutki of sindoor never comes.

It was the different shoe size that did the trick in Nasir Hussain's 1973 blockbuster Yaadon Ki Baarat.

Dharmendra learnt who his parents' killer was, and everything ended well.

Mohabbatein

Maple leaves and Shah Rukh Khan's Raj Aryan Malhotra's violin were a big part of Aditya Chopra's Mohabbatein.

The violin strains were always in the background when 'love' made an appearance in the film.

In the end, Raj's love won over Amitabh Bachchan's Narayan Shankar's parampara, pratishtha, anushasan.

Krrish

Dabangg had some great one-liners. Among them, is this statement that Salman Khan's Chulbul Pandey makes to his arch enemy Sonu Sood. Pretty much gets his sentiment across.
