- IndiaGlitz, [Wednesday,April 29 2015]
Its no news any more that Anurag Kashyap's upcoming Ranbir Kapoor-Anushka Sharma starrer 'Bombay Velvet' is a period drama set in the sixties. Well, let's now share how the director has recreated Bombay of that period.
Our sources close to the film revealed that the team of 'Bombay Velvet' went to great lengths to replicate Bombay of the 1960's and Anurag has made sure that everything is in sync with that era.
They needed Bombay to look like it did in the 60's, so they recreated the entire city. It was a huge task replicating the city and they left no stone unturned. Interestingly, the 'Bombay Velvet' set was constructed in Sri Lanka and the team recreated Bombay in an area of 9.5 acres there. And guess what...? They spent nearly 11 months constructing the set and the entire set was built from scratch.
From buildings to the interiors of the buildings, everything was designed, created and built from scratch. While they laid the foundations of buildings and laid out roads for the set, they even looked into minute details and like signage and interiors and décor.
Phew!!! Quite a task it has been, na...
