Says a source close to the film, "The dispatch of all prints of Rang Rasiya was stopped. The following disclaimer has been added, "This film is a dramatized version of the novel "Raja Ravi Varma" by Ranjit Desai and does not claim to be a true story. This film pays homage to Art and Artists and does not intend to malign the image of any person living or dead."
