Given it was Sayajirao Gaekwad III who had built the studio
for the artist in the palace grounds, their opinion brought smiles all over.
Rajmata Shubhanginiraje who played host to the grand premiere for the film in
Baroda, admitted the film left her feeling very emotional, "I remember six
years back when Ketan had come to meet my husband about the film. Today, while
seeing the film, I thought of my husband a lot. He was an artist and I wondered
what his take would have been and I am sure he would have had his own sensitive
outlook on it. It's a very nice film."
Alongside Rajmata, were her son Maharaja Samarjitsinh Gaekwad and his wife Radhikaraje Gaekwad. While Radhikaraje was impressed by Nanada Sen's character, "I specially connected with Sugandha's character, the faith she had in the artist and that he could transform her into something ethereal and eternal. There were a lot of shades that as a woman, and some as a connoisseur of art, that one could connect to." Maharaja Samarjitsinh is convinced that the film will bring alive Raja Ravi Varma, "I had the fortune of my dad being a professional artist himself, so he understood art and was an admirer of Ravi Varma's work.The film has been made keeping all the sensibilities in mind!"
