hired steam engine
According to a report in ‘Outlook’, the train scene of ‘Gadar’ was shot at the real Amritsar railway station. But the entire station was given a true 40s feel. All the posters and hoardings were replaced with 40s stuff, and the makeover was done in the same way. For this scene, a steam engine named ‘Akbar’ was borrowed from the Delhi Railway Museum. This steam engine was taken to Amritsar Railway Station. On the other hand, old coaches were put in the new train and painted with mud-like paint, so that it looks of the same era. That scene full of dead bodies was shot in this train.

Scene shot with real crowd
For that scene at the railway station, not only the train, but also other things and atmosphere of that decade of 40s were needed. A large crowd was needed, which should be in kurta pyjama. But from where did the makers bring such a crowd? In such a situation, the makers came up with an idea. He announced that whoever appeared in kurta-pajama would be included in the film. Then a crowd of thousands came, who were in kurta-pajamas. And thus a huge crowd was gathered for that crucial scene of ‘Gadar’.
