Far
from
the
hustle
and
bustle
of
city
life,
the
story
of
Sardaar
Gabbar
Singh
is
set
against
a
rural
backdrop
in
a
fictitious
place
called
Rattanpur.
Once
subsidiary
of
princely
state,
Rattanpur
is
situated
in
the
borders
of
Telangana,
Andhra
Pradesh
and
Chhattisgarh.
Since
the
town
was
part
of
Hindi
provenance,
the
people
of
Rattanpur
are
familiar
with
Hindi
and
their
jargon
has
mix
of
both
Hindi
and
Telugu.
With
a
sizeable
population
of
5000
to
10000
people,
Rattanpur's
bucolic
milieu
is
what
sets
it
apart
from
the
rest.
Its
landscape
is
wide
and
varied.
From
royal
palaces
to
silica,
quartz
mines
to
mountain
terrain
to
cavalry
barracks
to
finest
horse
breeding
centre,
Rattanpur
is
most
happening
place.
The
town
of
Rattanpur
has
four
entries.
While
one
major
entry
being
through
the
Rattanpur
Railway
Crossings,
the
other
three
are
the
grand
arches
that
open
into
four
streets.
Sardaar
(Pawan
Kalyan)
stays
in
the
street
of
Rattanpur
police
station
which
is
major
landmark
in
the
town.
Just
to
name
a
few,
the
other
major
spots
in
the
town
are
Govindram
Saloon,
Dhaba,
horse
breeding
centre,
temple,
Rajput
Rifles
shop,
Library,
Rattanpur
Post
Office,
Hotel
Moonlight,
Scrap
Shop,
Horse
Saddle
Shop.
Rattanpur
has
a
great
significance
in
the
story
of
Sardaar
Gabbar
Singh.
As
the
film's
plot
is
weaved
around
the
town,
the
film
is
predominantly
shot
in
it.
The
major
characters
of
Rattanpur
have
crude
and
grey
shades
and
most
of
the
characters
are
unpolished.
In
Sardaar
Gabar
Singh,
one
could
find
genuine
depiction
of
town
life.
Be
it
their
dressing
or
culture,
everything
stands
out
in
the
film.
Though
it's
a
small
town,
the
fashion
element
hasn't
given
up.
Costume
designer
Rajesh
ensures
each
character
has
its
own
fashion
statement.
And
colours,
designs
of
costumes
of
cast
have
been
fixed
much
before
the
film
gone
onto
the
floors.
An
earth
colour
palette
is
chosen
as
the
base
and
the
makers
make
sure
only
the
colours
from
the
palette
are
used
for
the
characters
and
background.
Veering
towards
the
town's
climate,
Rattanpur
has
tropical
climate
which
makes
it
hot
and
humid.
It
has
many
agricultural
fields.
The
staple
food
of
people
here
is
wheat,
jowar,
maize
and
rice.
The
major
livelihood
of
people
is
horse
breeding.
Hosting
a
Marathwada
horse
fair
is
part
of
their
culture.
