Nandana Sen will play the character of ‘Sugunabai’ a sensuous woman, who posed nude for Varma and he eventually fell in love with her.Rang Rasiya required the willowy actress to dress and look a certain way — a young Maharashtrian girl with long hair, light eyes, waist chain and a nose ring. She also gained five kilos for the role since she had to look voluptuous rather than thin. Written and directed by one of India’s most acclaimed directors Ketan Mehta, Rang Rasiya is based on a classic Indian novel ‘Raja Ravi Varma’ written by the highly acclaimed, award winning and popular Marathi novelist and playwright ‘Ranjit Desai’. The novel is woven around the life and times of the great Indian painter of the 19th century, ‘Raja Ravi Varma’ and deals with religious intolerance and denial of freedom of expression by fundamentalists and hardliners -sadly a fact and truth of even present times.
