Finally watched Special Chabbis. Good work on the props & effects to get the 1987 look:
- Old currency notes
- Old vehicles including the old ambassador models and Maruti 800
- Got the number plate colours right – white on black for private & black on white for commercial
- Getting the old look of Delhi, Kolkata & Mumbai, especially of the airports and the skyline
- Old ad hoardings
- Old telephone sets
- Indian Airlines logo along with the food trolley in cabin
However, a couple of goof ups that I noticed:
- Showing a blue coach at the railway station when they were all brown in that era
- A Maruti 1000/Esteem (launched in the 90s) parked on the road
