Oh no i'm not disagreeing with you i think you're 100% right, the colour just looks so different compared to other photos i've seen the blue seems far brighter as does the orange.

The color looks like a perfect match to me, but I am colorblind. Really there's nothing else this bird could be but Chestnut-breasted Malkoha. Quite a unique bird.
