Bollywood filmmaker Mahesh Bhatt took to Instagram to share the latest poster of his film 'Jalebi – The Everlasting Taste of Love'.

Along with the poster, Mahesh wrote the caption: "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."

Just minutes after the poster was shared, people began speculating if it was copied from somewhere. To their surprise, it is indeed is a copy!

The art of copying is not new for Bollywood as a lot of famous movies have copied posters from the West like 'Zindagi Na Milegi Dobaara', 'Kuch Kuch Hota Hai', 'Murder 2', 'Ra One' and now Jalebi!

The poster of Jalebi might appear to be very appealing but the idea for the poster seems to have been stolen from a famous photo clicked during the Korean War.

This iconic photo of the Korean war was clicked during the 1950s when a soldier of the 160th Infantry Regiment was departing for the Korean War. It was captured by Frank Q Brown, who was a former Los Angeles Times photographer.

In the photograph, soldier Robert Maye can be seen kissing his wife Gloria, right before the train is departing for the Korean War.

Interestingly, the makers of Jalebi seem to have copied this historic picture and recreated the scene in their movie. In the Vishesh Films' poster, 'Mere Dad Ki Maruti' fame Rhea Chakraborty is seen hanging out of a train window to kiss the lead actor, debutant Varun Mitra.

"Jalebi- The everlasting taste of love", is presented by Vishesh Films in association with Mahesh Bhatt and produced by Mukesh Bhatt. This movie will hit the theatres on October 12. It will mark the debut of director Pushpdeep Bhardwaj.

The movie includes songs sung by several Bollywood's singers--Jubin Nautiyal , KK, Shilpa Rao, Shreya Ghoshal, Tanishk Bagchi, Arijit Singh and Jeet Ganguly.

This latest poster of Jalebi has really got people intrigued and the audience cannot wait for the movie to release.
