Arishadvarga: a Rashomanesque Neo-noir is Ranjan's recommendation.




ARISHADVARGA (2019) is a Kannada neo-noir that adopts a Rashomanesque structure to arrive at the bottom of a mystery involving the murder of a quarry owner-cum-film producer at his palatial house. The others who play central roles are the victim’s wife who is a film editor, an aspiring actor turned gigolo, another aspiring actress, and the chief investigating officer. Written and directed by Arvind Kamath, the film is set in Bangalore and displays a freshness in its approach that immediately sets it apart from other Indian attempts at murder mysteries and thrillers that are proliferating on different streaming platforms.
