[Miniature drawing of @reginaacassandraa from #Evaru directed by @vvramg and starring @adivisesh]Evaru (2019)Directed by Venkat RamjiI missed watching this movie in theatres as the last couple of months have been extremely busy for me, with Recruitment activities. Fortunately, at the end of its theatrical run now, the film is on Amazon Prime.It's an official remake of the Spanish movie "Contratiempo" a.k.a. "The Invisible Guest", the second Indian remake, after "Badla". I actually didn't know this was a remake, till @kashyapchandra told me about it. So, I watched "The Invisible Guest" on Netflix recently and liked that. I haven't seen "Badla" yet and directly saw this take on the story.The film opens with wealthy socialite Sameera (Regina Cassandra) being arrested for the murder of a police officer who raped her. Subsequently, while under house arrest and impending trial, Vikram Vasudev (Adivi Sesh), a cop, advises her on defense. If you have seen the original film you would kind of know where things go from here, but the filmmakers here have made enough changes to differentiate this movie from the Spanish one (I don't know how similar this is to "Badla" though). The framework is the same, but they play about with the details differently. I thought "Evaru" was well done, quite restrained in its approach and nicely paced. It was well acted too. I liked the movie overall.I drew Regina Cassandra from the movie, from the flashback scene of the assault that starts off the story. The drawing is one inch square in size, done with 0.5 mm 2B mechanical pencil on A6 Brustro sketchbook and scanned.Tagging @neme.art #aninchaugust #aninchaugust2019 (despite August being over), and @primevideoin.#dailymoviesketch #karthikabhiram#pencil #pencilart #miniatureart #evaru#contratiempo #theinvisibleguest#473 / 20-Sep-19
