Sree RamaNa juvvadi cites Tikkana.

As far as i remember, Nannaya (aadi.saptama) composed
some poems in which arjuna was said to be of 'asita' varNa.

First let me be sure about this sitaasita dwandwaalu.

As far as i know, asita = black and (therefore) sita = white

( ex: sitanhaanuDu = moon
  also i remember karuNaSree's lines
  raadha or somebody singing about kRshNa,
  'nee asita_dyutul kanula nimipiti kaaTuka caesi.....')

So, if it's true that asita = black and sita = white,
then atleast according ONE PADYAM OF NANNAYA, then, arjuna
was black or blue or something belonging to that varNa gaNam!

Yes, yes. I also know that arjuna varNam means golden yellow
or caamanti poovu vanne or somesuch. My granny also told
me the same. But Nannaya cannot be wrong!

I don't know even a single word of sanskrit and reading vyasa's
original is something beyond me!

I rest my case!
