They must have had a blast making the video.
It's a famous scene: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chaiyya_Chaiyya#Music_video The video was filmed on top of the Ooty train (the Nilgiri Mountain Railway) in mountainous Tamil Nadu, southern India while actor Shahrukh Khan dances with model/actress Malaika Arora and other dancers. The film was directed by Mani Ratnam and photographed by Santosh Sivan. The choreography was completed in four and half days by Farah Khan.[4] No major back projections or post-production special effects were used in the music video. Malaika Arora, one of the performer recalls: "Would you believe it? Well, the "Chaiya Chaiya" song was shot exactly as you see it on the screen: No camera tricks, no back projection, no post-production special effects!"[5] She also said that "...One of the unit members tripped and hurt himself. Other than that, things were safe."[6] Mani Ratnam was inspired by Kittu Puttu - Kaalavannu Thadeyoru Yaaru Illa, a 1977 Kannada movie song video, which used a similar "atop the train" sequence, and was directed by his friend, C.V.
