GOLD: Check out how the movie came together!
Excel Entertainment recently put out a making video named “World Of Gold” giving a tour into what went behind the scenes in bringing the film on the screen.
From getting all the nuances of the sets and makeover right to the struggles with the weather, the video reveals the pain the team went through to bring alive the 1940s era in Gold.
Director Reema Kagti said ” On the Face of it Gold is a sports movie but it is also trying to touch a little on the birth of a nation’
Akshay Kumar said, “Gold is about one man’s dream his struggle and the journey he embarks on to win India its first Gold as an independent nation”.
The makers chose to shoot anamorphic because they wanted to give it a real feeling that what you’re watching is shot in the 1940’s which included getting vintage cars, shooting on train stations and actual stadiums.
The makeup team also faced madness as there were 2 hours to do make up every morning to about 20 actors and get the perfect look for that they also researched in a couple of museums in London to study what tubes and clothes were worn by all the men.
Reema Kagti shared “When we were in England am Gold there was crew from Mumbai, local crew from Yorkshire and people from London coming in which was genuinely a very interesting mix of people.
She also shared how England weather was a nightmare being extremely cold and the next schedule in India where it was the extreme opposite.
Reema Kagti shared her overall experience and said “I mean it was very intense it was like a slap in the face if you ask me but the crew was excellent and they always back me up but it was very very very hard for all of us”
