Vikas' film The Last Color released on Amazon Prime Video last week. He, however, appears disappointed with the negative reviews that the film has got. On Saturday, he even tweeted how actor Kangana Ranaut was right in her criticism of favouritism in the Hindi film industry.

In another tweet, he added, "My 2 Greatest Icons have spoken @VikasSwarup @bhawanasomaaya While many critics are asking for money or they will give me 2 Stars or destroy my movie or not give me AWARDS I ONLY care for my viewers & not reviewers My Award is YOUR love. Pls watch #TheLastColor on Amazon Prime."

On Friday, he had shared a poster of his film on Instagram, and had written, "While we all condemn Dynasties, Nepotism & Favoritism...yet we don’t give a chance to the self-mades. We admire & support their gatekeepers, but are unkind to the ‘New’. ‘New’ can’t flourish without encouragement & love. When ‘New’ rises, it makes way for “More New”, it makes way for all of us."

The Last Color stars Neena Gupta in the lead. Earlier speaking about the film in 2018, he had said, "It’s a very simple story capturing the richness of India. I found this story so compelling that I couldn’t resist telling it to the world. I mean, imagine being denied the right to touch colour. My life is all about colour in the form of spices and vegetables; the thought that if someone took that privilege away from me, drove me crazy.”
