Ludhiana is one of the prime locations for filming Chamkila. The artist used to tour multiple villages and towns to attend akaadas (open-air theatre) across his homeland

[{ "selector": ".duppa-a", "duration": "500ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "500ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "transform": "translateX(-339px)", "opacity": "1"}, {"offset": 1, "transform": "translateX(0)", "opacity": "1"} ] }, { "selector": ".ssuob-a", "duration": "250ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "1500ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "transform": "translateY(calc(600px - 605px))", "opacity": "50%"}, {"offset": 1, "transform": "translateY(0)", "opacity": "50%"} ] }]

The makers filmed some portions in Sangrur too which is a real-life location where the real Chamkila used to sing in akhaadas

For authenticity, the makers decided to record all the stage performances live on the sets while filming. The lead actors themselves sang all those real Chamkila songs
