After reading Desai's novel, Mehta felt inspired to make a film based on the life and times of Ravi Varma, and set about formulating the story of his new film.
He was fascinated with Ravi Varma right from his days at Film and Television Institute of India. Mehta thought that Varma was the most fascinating artist of that era and his character, persona and paintings. It stars Randeep Hooda as the title character and Nandana Sen as his love interest. The film, directed by Ketan Mehta, is produced by his wife Deepa Sahi and by Aanand Mahendroo.
Made as a bilingual, the film is titled Rang Rasiya in its Hindi version and Colours of Passion in English. Rang Rasiya (English title: Colours of passion) is an Indian erotic drama film based on the life of the 19th-century Indian painter Raja Ravi Varma.
