While we won't say much about how true to life the lane looks, the film's debutant heroine Sonia Mehra would sure love to romance on this set all over again.
"It’s a very romantic number, it's the beginning of the romance of these two people and they have kept it very colorful,” she says.
The film's most nostalgic touch is the Victoria, the tonga that is still a tourist attraction around the Gateway Of India. And Jimmy Shergill made the most of the chance to shoot with it.
"Kamal went to Punjab and caught hold of this guy who exports original Victorias abroad. It has added a certain class to the film,” he says.
So will Victoria No 203 recreate the magic of the original at the box office? We'll have to wait and see.
