Shooting
a
period
film
has
a
way
of
transporting
one
to
the
past.
On
the
sets
of
Sudhir
Mishra's
Khoya
Khoya
Chaand,
a
film
based
on
the
film
industry
of
the
1950's
and
60's,
it
wasn't
uncommon
to
see
posters
of
Aawara,
Mr.
and
Mrs.
55
and
Kaagaz
Ke
Phool
lining
the
walls
or
a
fleet
of
vintage
cars
parked
outside
the
studio
or
even
a
Johnny
Walker
look-alike
walking
by
with
a
bottle
of
whiskey.
But what really shipped one back to those times were the 'antakshari' sessions on the set with the cast on one side and the crew on the other, singing only songs from the 1950's and 60's...These sessions became such a hit that after a while they became a post-pack up regular with everyone joining in. And as the echoes of popular Mukesh and Kishore Kumar songs rang in the air, the old studios seemed to smile in memory of the years gone by.
