 The "Life" magazine that Rajoo (Raj Kapoor) reads on the flight to  Mumbai has the same picture on the cover as the one issued in the US  on 16 September 1966. The cover shows the famous picture of Sophia  Loren in her lingerie by Alfred Eisenstaedt beside the headline "The  Face of Our Time". The magazine held by Rajoo is an Asia edition  whose other headline ("Election surprise in Vietnam") is different  to the US editions "Assassination in South Africa" suggesting that  it must have been published later.
