Pachaikili Muthucharam Drawing

Today, I installed my scanner on my Windows XP, and was looking to scan something to try it out.  Hence, I quickly did this drawing in pencil and scanned it —

Pachaikili Muthucharam — Drawing by Karthik Abhiram

You can click that for a larger image.  By the way, that's a drawing based on the movie Pachaikili Muthucharam, a 2007 film from Gautham Menon, director of Kaakha Kaakha and Vettaiyaadu Vilaiyaadu.  I've wanted to see this movie for quite a while now, so I'm glad I got it today.  The movie stars R Sarath Kumar, Jyotika, Andrea and Milind Soman.  The interesting thing is, the end credits of the movie state that the story is inspired by the novel Derailed by James Siegel.  That book was adapted into an earlier movie starring Clive Owen and Jennifer Aniston.  There are many Indian movies that are lifted from Hollywood films without crediting the source.  It would have been all too easy for Menon to do just that.  It's nice to see that he has adapted the novel and given it due credit as well.  Anyway I'm looking forward to watching the movie.  The songs and music are by Harris Jayaraj and are very good.  Some parts of the movie are shot right here in Hyderabad (during the song "Kaadhal Konjam" you see Hyderabad Central and the Prasad's IMAX theatre, and the opening scene of the movie takes place near Charminar).

I'll make another update after watching the movie.
