In Gemini studios a strict hierarchy was maintained in the make-up department. The chief make-up man does the make-up of chief actors and actresses and the players who played the crowd were the responsibility of the office boy. On the days when there was a crowd shooting, it was responsibility of office boy to apply the make-up and he usually mix his paint in a giant vessel and pour it on the crowd players.
