Chaturbhuja Meher denied the allegations, saying his creation was substantially different from the painting. The master weaver told a local television channel. "All the charges made against me are false. I am contemplating a defamation suit".

Chaturbhuj said, "How can I lift Kailash's work? He is a painter, while I am a tie-and-dye artist. The 'Tree for Life' or 'Kalpabrikshya' he is talking about is an oil painting."
