→Trivia
- The film's title 'Roohrangi' is a poetic Urdu compound word meaning 'colour of the soul', reflecting its themes of identity and memory.
- Director Tusharr Madhavv reportedly filmed scenes in the same forest-reserve where he had personal encounters, blending documentary with personal essay.
- The film uses archival family photographs and medical imagery to visually explore the grandfather's leucoderma, a skin condition causing loss of pigment.
- It premiered at the International Film Festival Rotterdam in 2025, marking a rare Hindi documentary selection at a major European festival.
- The sound design mixes forest ambience with manipulated recordings of old family conversations, creating a layered auditory landscape.
- Madhavv cast non-professional actors from the queer community he met during research, aiming for authentic portrayals.
- The cinematography draws visual parallels between the patterns of leucoderma patches and the dappled light of a forest canopy.
