[#AnInchAugust × #DailyMovieSketch — Drawing of @mipalkarofficial from #Karwaan]Karwaan (2018)Directed by Akarsh Khurana (@akvarious)It has been a busy time at work so I couldn’t catch this movie on the weekend, but I did see it on Tuesday night and really liked it.This is a road movie that opens with Avinash (Dulquer Salmaan) getting the news that his father has died in an accident. A clerical error results in the body being dispatched to Tahira (Amala Akkineni) in Kochi, and Tahira’s mother’s body (she also died in the same accident) being sent to Avinash in Bengaluru. Avinash and his friend Shaukat (Irrfan Khan) decide to drive to Kochi to exchange the bodies, and pick up Tahira’s daughter Tanya (Mithila Palkar) on the way. It sounds rather morbid that the movie's plot is set in motion by two corpses, but this is a rather sweet comedy-drama.The performances from the three leads are really nuanced, the music and cinematography are great too. While “Karwaan” didn’t offer anything greatly different in a road movie, it's Kerala setting is something you don't normally get to see. One plot thread involving Shaukat’s ‘love at first sight’ felt a bit out of place, but without that his character wouldn't have an arc.The story for the movie is by “Shaitan”, “David” and “Wazir” director Bejoy Nambiar. Overall, a very good movie, recommended to watch.Tanya's college hostel building is named after Father Lankester Merrin, the character from “The Exorcist”! I guess I’m behind by a day on this #AnInchAugust challenge, where the goal is to make drawings that fit in one square inch. I'll catch up over the weekend. I’ve wanted to draw a portrait of actress Mithila Palkar for a while, got the opportunity to do so now, along with a review for this movie. The drawing was done with 0.5mm 2B mechanical pencil and @prismacolor (that yellow part is supposed to be a flower, which she holds in the scene this frame is from) pencil on paper, and scanned.I’m also posting a photo of this drawing from my sketchbook on my main account @karthikabhiram.#karwaan #mithilapalkar #irrfankhan #dulquersalmaan#pencilart#miniatureart#369 / 9-Aug-18
