`Shamshera` director on how the production design team built a 19th-century 400-foot train for action scene featuring Ranbir

However, with the Ranbir Kapoor and Sanjay Dutt-starrer set in 1871 against the backdrop of the British Raj, the director made sure that the film remained authentic to the period.
