See To Day is a collection of film posters commissioned by movie theaters in Bangalore, India and produced there locally. They were created by Ramachandraiah and Raju in a space of less than 250 square feet, using a lithograph press. They apply their own aesthetic onto the film’s branding and quickly print them on newsprint. The posters are then illegally pasted across walls around the city to advertise the film.
The title comes from the information accompanying the main graphic on the posters: “Daily 4 Shows,” “English Colour,” “Digital Surround Sound” (DTS), “A/C,” together with “See To Day.” The posters also direct the audience to the location and times of the screenings.
Bhakta curates 103 posters from his collection, spanning Hollywood blockbusters, Bollywood potboilers, horror, Asian, and European cinema. The initial version of See To Day was printed and published by Colpa Press in 2018. That version of 100 was a four-color Risograph and consisted of 50 posters, which are included in this expanded volume.
