Andhracafe.com- Ketan Mehta’s film ‘Rang Rasiya’ based on the life of famous painter Raja Ravi Varma has completed the shooting part and awaiting the clearance from the censor board.
The film has some scenes in which the lead actress Nandana Sen had posed total nude infront of the camera! Raja Ravi Varma painted nude women way back in late 19th century and early 20th century despite strong opposition from some groups. These scenes are also inserted into Ketan’s script and Nandana readily accepted to pose nude. Though the scenes are aesthetically shot, certain members of the Censor Board have found those objectionable and send those to the Revising Committee for a wider consensus. A final decision is likely to come within days.
