Ayyappanum Koshiyum (2020) - full transcript

'Long back, during a Mundoor Kummatti'

'Ayyappan & Koshy'

'Attappadi Forest Area'

'Forest Fire! Smoking & lighting fire
are strictly prohibited in the forest'

'Elephants or wild animals may cross.
Drive carefully'

Lord Krishna!
Protect us!

Where have we reached?

We've crossed Mukkali check-post.

Further ahead, there
will be a junction.

Kalkandy.

Turn left from there to Melemully.
Then, straight to Ootty.



Okay.

Stop if you see elephants.
I'll drive.

The elephants?

No!
The car!

Just say at Mattathukadu check-post
that it was checked here.

Sujith!

Let them go.

Go!
- Go! Go!

The elephants have come out.

That's the tuskless elephant.
Poor thing!

Sir, half an hour more
would be enough, right?

Sir...

This is SI Ayyappan Nair.
- Tell me.

We've finished 2 hours of
the joint interception.



Where?
At Narasimukku, right?

Yes, Narasimukku.

No cases, right?

No, sir.
No cases.

Wind up then.

Good night.
- Good night, sir.

Okay sir.

Check it.
- Sir.

Stop! Stop!
Kattappana registration?

Roll down the window.

Blow into this.

Open the boot.

Where are you going?

To Ootty, sir.
- At this time?

Where are you coming from?
- Kattappana, sir.

So couldn't you
take the highway?

Via Coimbatore-Mettupalayam?

What's with this Ootty trip through
the forest roads at midnight?

Forests and animals
are a huge craze...

... for my Sir.

So there was a 'Sir' inside?
Move.

Sir!

There are many liquor
bottles in here!

What are you doing?

Move away!

Where are you going with
all these liquor bottles?

Didn't you hear me?

What?

Where are you going?

To Ootty.

Through Attappadi?

Don't you know that this
is an alcohol-free zone?

I didn't know that.

Even if that is the case,
it's not a problem.

I got these bottles on quota.

Quota?

Dude... what...?

Who gets liquor on quota?
Soldiers!

I am Havildar Koshy Kurian.
Retired.

Boys in my town call
me 'Soldier' Koshy.

Just a minute.

Me....
Who...

Who the hell dragged me out of my car,
and threw me down?

What the hell will you do after
knowing that? Come, get into our car.

Come on, walk.
- Let go of my Sir.

What is all this?
-Take your hands off me!

Leave me.

You bloody... Catch him!
- Move!

Take your hands off me!

No, sir. Don't do it.
- Hey!

Go mess with your kind,
you bloody b@%@%!!

You..!!

Pin him down!

Why are you doing this?
- Lock him!

Put him into the car.

Catch him!

Move away.

- Leave my hand.

Let go of his neck.
- Let go!

Let go!
Let go, I say!

Take your hand off!

What?
Are you messing with us?

Put him inside!

Come on!

Walk!

Come, get into the car.
- Come on!

Walk!

Your bloody...

Get into the car.
- Put him inside.

Hey! Take his phone.

His phone too.
- Come with me.

Get down!

Wear your 'Mundu'.

You brought me here without that, right?
Now this is fine!

That's not enough.

There are some girls
here as constables.

Wear it!

Leave me.
- Walk!

Where are you pushing me?
I'm coming, right?

Switch off the TV.

Where?
Where is the lock-up?

If you won't create a ruckus,
you can sit here.

Otherwise you'll have to be in the cell.
- I'll go in there!

As if it's a murder
charge against me!

Or is it treason?

Or rape?

You brought me till
here anyway, right?

Tell me at least now
what crime did I commit?

Attappadi is an
alcohol-free zone.

Leave alone 12 bottles. Possessing
even 10 ml of alcohol is an offence.

55A Abkari Act.

Didn't I say that I got all those
bottles on quota from the military?

Hey!
- What?

Sujith!
- Your bloody...

You haven't even hatched
out of the egg!

Where's your house?

Kattappana.

From which canteen did you
buy the alcohol from?

From Kochi.

You can take it to
Kattappana from Kochi.

But even that can be
charged by the police.

As per the law in Kerala, a person can
possess only a maximum of 3 litres.

So not just Attappadi. Wherever
you're caught, it will be an offence.

Then... you boozed in your car,
on the forest area road.

15C Abkari Act and
Forest Offence too.

Moreover, you manhandled a Government
officer and interrupted his duty.

IPC 332, 363.

Enough? - If that's not enough, put
everything else also on to my head.

You do whatever you can.
Let it be morning.

I will do whatever I can too.

Thaju...

Sir...
- Write the FIR.

Seizure Mahazar,
Statement, Remand Report.

Get everything ready.
- Okay sir.

This...

I'll sort this out!

Thaju...
- Sir...

Add the PDPP act, as well.

He has broken the light of the excise jeep.
- Okay sir.

Move away, man!
Let me get some fresh air!

He's also acting tough!

What is it?

Sir...

Can you get me my phone back?

I have to see if I
can inform someone.

Shut up and go stand there.

Otherwise we'll put
you also inside.

I can go inside, sir.

Will you release my boss then?

Then it's all right.
- Get going, man!

Sir, I want to meet SI sir.

Go and wait there, man!

Let the report be written.
We'll see after that.

Kumaran!

Don't beg!
Go away!

What's happening there?
- He was talking to his driver, sir.

Sir...

He seems like a wild bull.

Yet I tried to tame him, Jessie!

I'll leave after signing this.

After the documentation,
return the phones to him & his driver.

Sir...

I had asked for 4 days leave.
- 4 days?

It's Christmas, sir.

My sisters' kids are coming.

Okay!

Sir, tea.

Sir, tea.

I don't want it.

Jessie, give me a tea!

Thank you.

Hello!

That's my phone.

I know...
but I can't give it now.

Don't give it.
Just check and tell me who it is.

I'll tell you if you ask
decently like that.

Johnny Anthony.

Johnny Antony.

Is it the film director
Johnny Antony, sir?

Who knows!

Yes, it's him.

Do you work in the movies?

What's your post?

Are you a producer or an editor?

Sir, he has started
acting also now.

Great! Then let me check which
other film guys are on this!

Sir... that's not right.

This is fun, right?

Do whatever you want!

Hey! Hey!

I know what you're looking for!

It doesn't have numbers of any actresses!
- No?

Even otherwise, I'm not
interested in them.

Is he a film guy?

I think so, sir.

Joekkuttan sir is searching
his contact list.

What's wrong with him?

Shall I ask him to stop it, sir?

Let him do whatever he wants!

KC George sir.

So you're not just a film guy...

You're a Kerala
Congress member too?

Nikesh!

Who?

Nikesh from 'Reporter' Channel?

Must be. I haven't heard of
anyone else with that name.

He has a great voice.

Ummen Chandy sir.

Keep it there, sir.

Ikka, I've reached
till U anyway, right?

Ummen Chandy. There are only a few more.
I'll be done now.

Who else is there?

Vijayan sir.

Don't be scared.

That's not Pinarayi
Vijayan sir's number.

It is Inspector General
Vijayan sir's number.

Sir, this is Ayyappan Nair.

That Abkari case I caught earlier?

That guy is not just
another ex-military man.

Political leaders, media persons and
IG Vijayan sir are on his contact list.

Yes, sir.

Has it been entered on the computer?
- Yes, sir.

Even the remand report
has been prepared.

What can we do now?

Proceed!

Unnecessary hassles to
disturb our peace of mind!

Do one thing.

Try to make him understand
things tactfully.

He wouldn't have realized the
gravity of the offence. - Sir.

And...
- Yes, sir.

Treat him in a way that
he feels comfortable.

Don't be stuck up with your
strict law enforcement then.

If such influential
people are hurt,

their reaction would
be far from ordinary.

You know, right?
- Okay, sir.

Sir...

Come.
Let's sit inside.

Why?

Come, sir.
Let's talk.

I don't want to hear anything.

Whatever you had to do...

you've already done, right?

Don't be adamant.

Please come, sir.

Joekkuttan,
give sir's phone.

Return the driver's
phone to him too.

You needn't return his phone.

He'll call unnecessary people at
midnight and complicate things.

Then make him sit inside.
- Okay sir.

Don't let him be out in the cold.
He's old, right?

Sit down, sir.

Do you want anything to drink?
Black tea or something?

I experienced your
hospitality already.

I don't need anything more.

Sir, what happened today,
was a joint interception.

It's just a procedure
which happens once a month.

A joint combing by police,
excise & forest departments.

The whole purpose
of it is that...

even if one of us wants to
let someone go, we can't.

Since everyone is involved.

That's where you landed.

An Abkari offense.

But it became serious when you
manhandled that excise officer.

Was it me who laid
hands on him first?

He was the one who pushed
me down from the car.

He wouldn't have seen you
sleeping, leaning on the door.

For him not to see me...
Is that rascal blind or what?

Leave it, sir.

And you slapped me on my face!

Not once...

But twice!

You were really violent.

So many policemen and guards
weren't able to stop you.

In between that, you were holding
an excise officer by his throat!

Without knowing who you are,

what else can SI do then?

You must have realized
who and what I am, now, right?

That's not what I
am coming to, sir.

You should listen patiently.

If you push someone down from
his car, slap him, strip him...

and bring him to the
station at midnight,

he wouldn't have much 'patience'.

So don't bother about my patience.
Tell me the matter.

You've been charged
with Abkari Act 55A,

and PDPP Act Section 3.

Like I said earlier, this is
not rape or murder, right?

You do whatever you can.

I'll show you what I can do,
after getting out of court tomorrow.

You can't get out from
the court tomorrow, sir.

What?

That's what I am coming to.

Listen to me patiently.

Magistrate cannot grant
you bail in this case.

You will have to spend a
minimum of 10-12 days...

... in the sub-jail.

Here's your phone, sir.

You can consult any Advocate.

At sub-jail?

10-12 days?

Me?

Yeah, right!

That too, for
confiscating my bottles,

which are part of Central
Government's quota for me.

You can shove this
damn law up yours!

I also wore a uniform
for around 17 years.

I've spent many sleepless nights
in forests, hills and snow!

That's still called 'serving the country'.

I won't go to jail
because of this!

Well, if I leave from here in
my car now, what will you do?

Tell me.
What will you do?

Will all of you shoot me dead?

Sumesh...

We won't do all that, sir.

Your arrest has been recorded.

If you try to leave from here,
that would be escaping from custody.

Since our jobs
would be at stake,

and since it's our duty to see
to it that you don't leave...

So?

We will have to use force.

We will use force, which
you cannot defend!

You cannot leave like that, sir.

Can you?

You've seen the world, right?

He is my relative.

Not just my relative, he is
a close friend too. Johnny.

Johnny Antony.

His movie's shoot is getting
over tomorrow, at Ootty.

While going for the
pack-up party,

he asked me if I could bring
bottles which I got as my quota.

That's why I put
them in the car.

My dad and mom
had asked me not to go,

since there are only 5
more days for Christmas.

This must be my fate.

I came after promising my children
that I'll reach back on 23rd,

and build the Christmas
crib with them.

I have two little daughters.

Hey!

Is there any way to let me
go from here, right now?

I'll do whatever you want.

I'll make sure that you won't
face any problem from the top!

And... the day after Christmas...

I'll come and surrender myself.

After that, ten or fifteen days...

As you say...

I'll be in the jail!

My...

My mom is bedridden.

I don't know if she would be
around for next Christmas.

Can you....

... let me go?

You can't!

Sorry sir.

Call someone and inform them.

I...

I can't handle this pressure!

Hey!

I need some alcohol.

What are you saying, sir?

This is a dry land.
How will you get alcohol here?

Those are my bottles,
kept on that table!

Those are the seized goods, sir.

We've added them to the
records & sealed them already.

Oh God!

You people sealed
it yourselves, right?

Open it, pour 4 drinks for
me, and seal it again!

Otherwise, my...

Otherwise I...

I will lose it!

I...

Jesus!

Joekkutan, bring a
bottle from that batch. - Okay.

Here, sir.
I'll bring water now.

We don't have cold water.

I'll give him water.
You can go, Jessie.

I am an SI who's supposed to receive the
police medal from the Chief Minister,

on the upcoming Republic Day.

And I am breaking the seal of the seized
good, and fixing a drink for the accused.

That too, at the police
station in a dry land.

If this goes out,
not just the medal...

I'll lose even my job.

Then I'll have to
go to jail too.

I have only 2 more
years to retire.

Haven't you decided
whom to call yet?

Well...

Even if someone starts
from Kattappana now,

they would reach Palakkad
only by noon tomorrow.

I need to call someone
who's in Palakkad.

Jessie...
- Sir...

Here.

Go and seal this.

Don't change the number.

Water?

I will leave soon.

You'll have to go for a medical
check-up at General Hospital.

It's procedure.

We'll do that in the morning.

Ayyappan Nair.

Right?

Ayyappan is the name
of my mother's father.

Her family used to
work at Nair's fields.

My father is the Nair.

Naming me 'Nair' was a protest by mom,
while admitting me in school.

Thus, I became Ayyappan Nair.

How are you connected
to Vijayan sir?

Why?
Do you need a transfer?

No.
I don't need all that.

Ever since I joined as a constable,

I was mostly posted
at Palakkad district.

My home-town is
Mundoor, which is nearby.

My wife has 2 acres of land here,
which she got from the Government.

She's a tribal woman.

I am building a small
house there somehow.

Where should I be
transferred to, from here?

What about a suspension then?

It's a joke.

I was just joking.

We can continue with the
jokes, tomorrow morning.

Okay!

Yes, Dad.

Headlight... Some paint...
That's all.

Where is his car?
- He was taken for medical check-up.

In that car?
- He was taken in our jeep, sir.

But that driver is
following him in his car.

Why?
You thought he escaped?

No.. Suddenly...
- Sir. - Here.

How are you?

Doing good?
- Yeah.

Pazhani, take them...

If you want to buy any medicine,
buy it from Mannarkkad.

Does he have fever now?

No.

What happened?
- Sir, the medical check-up is over.

This is my wife, sir.
Kannamma.

The guy whom you spoke
about yesterday?

Isn't he an accused?

Then why are you calling this
bourgeois rascal, 'Sir'?

Hey!

One petrol pump.

One hill produce shop.

50 acres of rubber plantation.
That too, built by my dad!

And then, my pension.

Yet, I am a bourgeois?

Yes.

You do reek of Maoism, sister.

You keep quiet.

You will never learn.

Get going.

Hey!

Don't sit on window
seats in the bus.

The wind might increase his..

He has to be out in the wind
& rain a lot more, right?

Let him get used to it.

Where are you going, Chechi?
- I have to take him to the doctor.

Which month is your wife in now, Sathish?
- Fourth month, Chechi.

This time it will be a boy.
I am sure.

May your words turn
into gold, Chechi.

I don't want it to
be gold, Sathish.

He'll pledge that too then.

Go!
- Okay then. - Bye.

What happened?
Has he calmed down?

No way!

Shall I talk to him?

No.
You needn't talk to him, sir.

No?

He's too arrogant of
his influence, sir.

Then let it be.

Everything is done, right?
- Yes, sir.

The statement is ready.
Now Faizal sir has to read it.

Happy now?
Spend some days behind bars now.

Will you send anyone from
your house to give me company?

You...
- Get lost, you loser!

Faizal!
- Sir.

Didn't you read the statement?
- Yes, sir.

Get going then.
- Sir.

He will be presented
at Mannarkkad court.

The sub-jail is in Palakkad.

We can't see him after
5 o'clock today.

Sir, they are leaving now.

I'll call you.

Make it fast.

Where have you reached, Dad?

Just reached Ernakulam?

Hey! Come on.
The case has been called.

Come.
- Do one thing, Dad.

Take a room in Palakkad
and stay there today.

Ummen & Joby are
with you, right?

We'll meet tomorrow.

What?

Okay.

Retired soldier under arrest for
smuggling alcohol to Attappadi.

It's on the newspapers.

Here, sir.

I've mixed Vodka in this.

No, Kumaran.

I'm going to jail for
10-12 days anyway, right?

I've never done any kind of
fasting in my life so far.

Let this be a fast.

Kumaran!

My purse is in the car.

Take the money
you need from it.

Sir...

Come.

On the day of my release,

this should be charged fully.

Jessie, bring something for us
when you come back.

I will bring.

Are you leaving, dear?

Merry Christmas then.

Thank you, sir.

We've got the accused who
extracted stones from the forest.

An innocent chap!

The guy who extracted stones from
the forest is an innocent chap?

Okay then.

Joekkuttan...

Who's the innocent chap
who extracted stones?

It's him, sir.

We found this gun
powder from his house.

He stole the gun powder which was to be
used for fireworks at the temple, sir.

Did you see him stealing it and
extracting stones, Member?

He hasn't seen anything, sir.

But... it was me who stole it.

What arrogance is this?

Sir, I have two daughters.

The elder one is in 10th grade
and the second is in 8th.

You can be arrogant about that.
That's good.

Hey! Stealing the gun powder &
extracting stones from the forest.

Sir asked about that.

I can't buy gun powder
from a ration shop, right?

That's why I stole it, sir.

This is a complicated case, man.

Somewhat.

What's your name?

Sebastian.

Sebastian!
- Yes.

Theft.

That too, gun powder.

Possessing explosives
without a license.

Trespassing the forest area.

And then, extracting
stones from there.

Do you think these
are minor charges?

You already wrote the FIR, right?
- Yes.

Then add him as the accused.

He admitted his crime, right?
- Yes.

This is better than going to jail for
some stabbing or murder case, sir.

What?
- Sir, as I told you, I have two daughters.

People like him are the members
& politicians of the ward.

They keep troubling women.

Hey! Don't talk nonsense!

Keep quiet, Member.

You continue.

Sir, if I have to live peacefully with
my daughters,

I need a house
with strong walls.

The bank told me that
they'd give me a loan

only if I lay a
foundation for the house.

I extracted stones from the forest,
to build the foundation of my house.

Other than that, I wasn't running
a quarry in the forest, sir.

I can go to jail in this
case if you want me to.

But... you should promise the
protection of my children.

I trust you, sir.

What can we do about this?

We are investigating.
- Are we?

Write it like that.
- Oh! Like that!

You needn't go to jail.

Sir...

This is not a small game.

If you bring this up...

your name will be on this FIR.

You get going first.

Go!

You can also go.

Sebastian!
- Yes.

You've got enough stones, right?

No, sir.
I need some more.

Then take it.

Very little.

One tight slap I'll give you!
Get lost!

Sebastian Chetta!
- Yes.

Call us for your house-warming
function, okay?

All of you should consider this
as an invitation and come.

Okay then.
I am leaving.

You got out?

I got bail yesterday.

From the High Court.

Here's the bail order.

Well, I have been asked to come
here and sign every Monday.

Today is Friday, right?

Go and come back on Monday.

Well...

On Monday, my uncle's son
is going on a pilgrimage.

So, shall I give that
sign, right now?

Kuttamani, don't come to the
station and irritate me!

I was framed for a
crime I didn't commit.

Everyone here saw that it was the
tribal boy who stabbed Thomas.

Wasn't it you who got
that boy drunk and stoned,

and made him stab him?

So that boy needn't go to jail.
You should!

If you show off
over here again...

Don't mess with me!

Will you leave,
or should I send you off?

I'm not playing any games.

Now...

The day you get out
of your uniform...

I will start my game only then!

Who do you think you are?

Calm down, kid.
- Didn't you hear him, sir?

I get out of my uniform
every evening, man.

Tell me when you're free.
I'll get out of it early then.

Okay!

Move out all your
stuff from your shop.

The Tahsildar has asked
for police assistance

to demolish it from
Government land.

So be it.

Sujith...
- Sir.

Keep this in that shed.

You shouldn't have
told them.

And how is mom now?

How will she be?

If someone dies,
they will be buried.

Be it me, you or your mother.

You didn't do this on purpose, right?

This is a cross that was
thrust upon you, right?

So carry it!

Even Christ had carried it.

So there's no Christmas
for us this time.

You have time till Easter.

Everything else can wait until a
decision is made about his uniform!

Dad!

What is it?

How old are you, actually?

I am younger than you, anyway.

Open it!

'There will be a landslide
when you least expect it'

'The sand beneath your feet will
slip away, before you know it'

'There will be a landslide
when you least expect it'

'The sand beneath your feet will
slip away, before you know it'

'Even cobwebs would
turn into huge nets'

'The edge of the sword
will split the sculpture'

'Until yesterday, this was a paddy field'

'Today, it's an overflowing sea'

'In the darkness that pierces our eyes,

'Until yesterday, this was a paddy field'

'Today, it's an overflowing sea'

'In the darkness that pierces our eyes,
our own paths and courtyards are stolen'

'There will be a landslide
when you least expect it'

You want to demolish it?

Tahsildar is on leave.

He didn't go on leave.
I sent him.

I don't need the Tahsildar
to demolish this.

Come on!

Kumaran!

Ruby and kids will
come on Christmas day.

To see him.

Squad, attention!

Squad, arms down!

'Upon the southern hill,
the golden hill'

'A seed sprouted suddenly'

'On a tender leaf'

'There was moisture even at noon'

Sir, what about them?

The papers they gave
are clear, right?

If you bring so many people,
without the necessary papers...

Look!

This isn't the paper I asked for.
- Then what paper do you want?

I didn't ask for this.
- Hold him.

Kannamma!
- I'll teach you a lesson!

Haven't you had enough?

'Today, it's an overflowing sea'

'In the darkness that pierces our eyes,
our own paths and courtyards are stolen'

Arrest has been recorded.

She can get bail after
the medical check-up.

'A creeper that grew on its own'

'A mad creeper with thorns all around'

'A creeper that grew on its own'

'A mad creeper with thorns all around'

'That creeper crawled
and spread all around'

'It encircled and strangled
everything on its path'

'The straight paths, hills and fields,
disappeared under it'

'They disappeared
under that creeper'

I had told dad that I'm not
celebrating Christmas this time.

Then why?

Give it to me.

Here.
Give it to whoever you want to.

So aren't you eating it?

I am fasting.

Come!

Your dad asked me not to cry.

And now you...?

I wasn't crying.

This will be an experience
for the kids, right?

You do one thing.

Take the kids and
leave quickly.

Well, why did you come
here on this day, Father?

How can I celebrate Christmas,
when you are here, brother-in-law?

Sir, take this as well.
- Come, kids.

Come.

Ichaya...

Those plates?

I will bring them when I come.

You can go now.

Koshy, leave it.

Just consider this
as an experience.

Until I give him an 'experience',

I won't leave this.

After all, it's the Holy day of the Lord
who taught us to forgive everything.

Leave it!

My blood...

... is slightly thicker.

Because my dad's name is...

... Kurian John.

Yeah.
You have all those problems!

Bloody Kurian John & his son!

When are you both going
to realize your folly?

He has to go and sign at Anagada
station on Monday & Friday.

When do I have time to go home
in between this, Advocate?

Yes. He will get one morning
in his house, at the max.

Whatever conditions the court
puts forth to grant bail,

we will have to agree.

Let 2-3 weeks pass.

I'll file a petition to
modify the conditions.

See this, Advocate.

And tell me what all offenses
can be charged for this.

Advocate!

It will be an explosive
breaking news.

Koshy, this is too much!

His life will be ruined.

Is it necessary?
- What damn question is that, Advocate?

Come, boys.

First, I have to break my fast.

Kumaran, start the car.

Hey!
- What is it, kid?

My bike is here.

I was caught without a license.

To pay the fine?

Even if you pay the fine, we won't
give you the bike without a license.

If you want the bike,
bring someone with a license.

Chechi, please tell him.

Chechi?

What?

Leave it, Sujith sir.
He's just a kid, right?

Stand outside.

Kid... Wait for some time.

Mom?

Mom! I am busy now.
I'll call you back, okay?

Hello?

Hello, mom?

Why are you crying, mom?

Don't make me tensed.
What is the matter?

What is it, Jessie?

What's wrong with this girl?

What is it, dear?

The alcohol that was stored among
seized goods at Anagada police station,

was used by SI Ayyappan Nair along
with the help of Constable Jessie.

You can see that
in these visuals.

This incident happened at a
police station in Attappadi,

which is an alcohol-free zone,

and that intensifies the
seriousness of the offense.

Jessie...

He has retaliated, man!

What?
What happened?

Sir... The news...

... was used by SI Ayyappan Nair along
with the help of Constable Jessie.

You can see that
in these visuals.

This incident happened at a
police station in Attappadi,

which is an alcohol-free zone,

and that intensifies the
seriousness of the offense.

People of the town say that
alcohol smuggling happens regularly,

through the Anagada police station limits,
which is close to Tamil Nadu border.

But, only a very small portion of the
alcohol seized during the combing,

done in the name of
alcohol-hunting,

is being recorded as seized goods.
This is another allegation.

Since the key of the store room
in the station is entrusted to the SI,

the alcohol stored there can be used
by SI Ayyappan Nair as he pleases.

That's what these
visuals prove to us.

Tomy, send all of them away.

Whatever it is,
we'll solve it tomorrow.

Chetta, please go
and come tomorrow.

Sathish, let him go.

Don't cry, Jessie.

You are in uniform.
Stand upright!

Only after wearing this uniform,

I could stand up
upright in life, sir.

Do you remember what you
said that day, sir?

No need of my strict law tantrums!

If such influential
people are hurt,

their reaction would
be far from ordinary.

Yet, the reaction
was extreme now.

You can wash your
hands in my case.

You just asked me to make him
comfortable, not to fix him a drink!

What will we do about her, sir?

Ayyappetta, I...

You said so that day not because you were
scared of some Koshy you have never seen.

You said so seeing all the
influential people in his list.

So it's not just Koshy
who is at fault, sir.

These influential
people are, too.

A fear that they would intervene
for people dear to them.

That fear towards
influential people, sir?

That's the incapability
of poor people like us.

I'll tell you something.

If those who have no one to help
during a problem, wear the Khaki,

just do you duty.

Follow only the law.

Humanity is something that can only be
afforded by people much bigger than us.

SI Ayyappan Nair is one
among the list of officers

who are selected to accept the Chief
Minister's police medal on Republic Day.

An officer with such criminal behaviour,

getting a place in the eligibility
list for the police medal..

Why aren't you happy, bro?

It's not time yet.

Let it be time.

Tell us what's the
next programme, bro.

From here,
straight to Attappadi.

That's awesome!

Hey!

You've offended all
the policemen there.

There is a danger.
I'm saying this as a precaution.

Not just signing...

There are other bail
conditions, as well.

If you repeat the offense,

that is, if they catch you with even
a drop of alcohol at Attappadi,

or if you don't go there
and sign regularly,

police will file a petition
to cancel your bail.

If that happens,

Koshy, you will go to jail again.

Indefinitely.

If I travel 7 kms from Anagada,
I'll reach Anaikatti.

That's in Tamil Nadu, right?

Alcohol is available there, right?

When I feel like it,
I will go there, drink and come back.

Can they charge a case for the alcohol
that's in my stomach, Advocate?

And about the signing...

There are many more people
above the SI and CI.

Those in Khaki,
and others too.

I will go and sign wherever I
want to, whenever I want to.

'Hey Nair! Ayyappan Nair!
In relation, I am your sister'

Ayyappan Nair's people are all here!
- It doesn't matter who comes.

He is the son of some
big thug in Kattappana.

Sir, did that rascal
get out of jail?

Oh! Another rascal.

He got bail yesterday.

He must be out today.

Let him come.

He has to come here and sign, two
days of the week anyway, right?

That's him.

Ummen!
- Yes!

Joby!
- Yes!

The gallery is against us, boys!

Look at his arrogance!

Will Ayyappan Nair's body
be taken out anytime soon?

Will you leave only after that?

Not just after it's taken out, kiddo!

I'll leave only after it is buried!

Why?
Your throats are all stuck now?

Those are Nair's people.

They came hearing
about his death!

Who are you?
- Kuttamani.

Koottamani?
(peal)

Kutta.. Kutta..
Kuttamani.

Enquiry will take time.

He is on the road.
Koshy.

Along with Kuttamani.

Ayyappetta...

We can make Jessie a witness in the case.
DSP sir has agreed.

But we can't do anything
about the suspension.

Jessie, dear..
Come here.

Sir..
- Keep this.

I don't need it, sir.

Take it, Jessie.

Take this.

Sujith..
- Sir.

Drop Jessie at the bus stand.

Why are you hanging your head down?
Look straight & walk!

Hey girl!

I never meant to
include you in this!

This shot was for that loser!

Bloody scoundrel!

No! No! No!
Move away!

Leave it.

You and your damn sympathy!

Get lost.

Didn't you hear
what she said, bro?

Let her say it, man!

She has all the rights to say that.

Come.

No, sir.
Not here.

Kumaran...
- No means no!

Okay.
Leave me.

'FIR against SI Ayyappan Nair'

Go to your village
for a few days.

There will be an arrest, right?

Not from the station.

I asked them to
do it at our house.

Get me some water.

Wow!

Is this your house?

Nice!

The exact same look of the house
of a honest man! - I swear!

Nair!
- Nair, booooo!!

There's quite some
road frontage.

If you keep a board here,
you can start a tea shop.

'Meals ready'

Two Idlis and one tea, please!

Or let it be.

For this area and structure,

locally brewed arrack is the best!

No! Nairs don't brew
arrack illegally, bro.

But he's not an original Nair.

He is a hybrid item!

He's only used to throwing
others behind bars!

The CI is here.

You can celebrate now!

But I'll tell you what all you're
going to face, when I get time.

Take a day off and
sit at home, sir.

I will also tell you about the
things I've faced so far.

CI Sir...

Buy a 'Tortoise' brand mosquito coil,
and a pine-leaf fan for him.

In the jail, there are so many
mosquitoes, and it's really hot too.

I am KC George.

Kanjar MLA.

He is my boy!

It would be very difficult for him
to come there and sign twice a week.

Sir, don't consider this as arrogance.
That's not possible.

Think about one thing.

Is it possible to travel 300 kms from
Kattappana, just to come and sign there?

Will he have to time to go home?
- Sir...

Let him come or go from Kattappana, stay
in Attappadi, or do whatever he wants.

But he must come to the station
and sign, twice a week!

Don't be so pertinent, Inspector.
It's not such a big deal, right?

This happens in all stations, right?

Then why do you alone have such
a big problem? - Yes, sir.

It happens in this station too.

But in his case alone,
it won't happen, sir.

That's the kind of atrocity
he did towards our SI.

If I agree to this, I'll be destroying
the morale of all the policemen here.

It's not possible, sir.
Leave it.

Hey!

We might say or do certain things out
of excitement at certain instances.

Once that is done,
it's done.

That's all human lives are, right?

Sir, I can agree.
I can.

But I have a condition.

There's a disciplinary enquiry
against Ayyappan Nair.

The original file of the
video is on Koshy's phone.

If he submits that,
Nair will lose his job.

If you can promise me that Koshy won't
submit that video to the enquiry officer,

I will agree.

Why not!

I can promise you.
He won't submit it.

Fine?
- Fine, sir. That's enough.

I was saying all this to you as well.
You heard me?

You'll be called to the DySP's
office for the enquiry.

Don't submit the phone with the video.

Leave it at that.

Hey! I promised them.
Now don't do anything stupid.

Yes, sir.
I have left it.

Anyway, thank you so much.
- You may go.

Ayyappetta, George sir
has promised, right?

It was George sir who promised
and not him, right?

He is quite short when
it comes to sincerity.

No.
I don't have any confusions about that.

He's not going to submit it.

He retaliated because he got insulted.
That's all.

But... your police medal.

That's gone now.

The medal was for doing
my job well, right?

I got paid for doing my job.
My salary.

I don't need the medal.

Okay, Ayyappetta.
I'm leaving.

I'm trying to get the bail
order's copy before 5 PM.

If we get it, you can get out today.
Or else, tomorrow.

Okay.
- Okay then.

Bye.

Hey!

Come home!

Make it fast!

Okay, Dad!

Let's go!

Dad's on fire, dude.

Son of Thangachan
from Olassha?

Yes.
The Home Department Secretary.

Arrange his number from
somewhere and call me.

What is it, Dad?

Get going.

Where?

To Attappadi.

You've been called to the
DySP's office tomorrow, right?

Go there and submit that phone.
- Well...

But George sir...
- I am your dad! Not George!

But if you say so...
What will I...

Don't argue with me!

Why? You got scared when you
spent 10 days in the sub-jail?

I agreed when you asked me
permission to join the army,

so that you'd gain some grit
quite early in your life.

What else can a pre-degree fail student
become, other than a sergeant?

A sergeant whose knees shiver while
standing before a policeman!

Just to bring insult to real men!

I had also told him, so that things
don't get complicated further.

Your job is driving.

Not giving him advice, Kumaran!

Move away!

What he did to you that day, was out of
the arrogance of his uniform, right?

What if Ruby was with you that day?
She'd also be sent to jail!

This haughtiness that he can frame someone
who's living decently for any crime...

I can't forgive that!

Otherwise, leave it.

Have lunch and go to sleep.

You're living a relaxed life off your
retirement pension at the age of 38, right?

Go!

But about your parenthood...

At this old age...

I will have to
suspect your mother.

Sheesh!

You and your dirty tongue!

I will leave.

Where are you going?

I will leave after
seeing mom and my kids.

You can exchange pleasantries
after coming back. Go!

Ichaya...

Have lunch and go...

I can have lunch...

... on the way, as well.

I was asked to sign
after you reach, sir.

Come.

Ayyappetta, leave only
after I tell you.

Not just because
George sir told me...

I agreed to this only because you promised
that you won't submit that phone.

Okay sir.

There will be 4-5 of them.
Sign on it.

So let this be done with this, right?

So be it, sir.

You've been called to the
DySP office today, right?

Yes, sir.

They will call you a
couple more times.

Once you stop going,
they will drop it.

Well...

If I'm called to a DySP's office, isn't
it too bad if I don't go there, sir?

I'll go there.
- What for?

That video...

To submit it.

Are you serious?

Yes.

That rascal is
changing his stance now.

I thought I'll say it
after I finish signing.

Or that's enough for you
to clip me down, right?

You bloody rascal!

Do you think you can go out from
this station with that phone?

Thaju.. Joekkuttan!
Come on!

Here you go!
Search him!

Wherever he has hidden it...
Find that phone!

Search!
- Raise your hands!

Come on!

Take it.
- Here you go, sir.

No. This is not the one.

This isn't the phone he had
with him that day. I am sure.

His car... His driver!
Come!

Where's that phone?

I don't have anything!

Push the seat down and check.
Check the tool-bag too.

No point searching, sir.
There's nothing in it.

Since it was difficult for
me to go there today,

my Advocate Rahim is at the DySP's
office with the phone, instead of me.

Around 11 o'clock...
Yes!

He would have submitted it now.

So, is there anything else that I
have to do over here, CI sir?

Go ahead and arrange a helicopter.

To keep coming and
going from Kattappana.

That won't be necessary.

I am going to stay here
in Attappadi itself.

Until the bail
conditions are modified.

Kumaran!

Start the car!

Kutta...
Come, get in.

Where to?
- First to Anaikatti.

I've hired a room in the lodge.
Why don't you freshen up & go?

I'm really fresh now.

So I need to get dirty, having
a couple of drinks first.

I'll go to the lodge after that.

Get in.

My shop stands on Government land.
It's true.

But who is Thomas to file a
complaint and get it demolished?

Scoundrel!

There's a boy who works for me.

He is a tribal.
Rangan.

He is stoned all the time!

I just bluffed to him that
Thomas is his wife's lover.

The boy went and stabbed him.
He didn't die.

It was me who gave
him the knife.

But it was the boy who
stabbed him, right?

So shouldn't he be arrested?

But Nair trapped me!

I thought I'll have to
wait until he retires.

But you landed in between that.

I am lucky that you landed here!

Koshy...

Your job is over.

But who said that I came
here to work for Kuttamani?

Get into the car, Kutta.

Hello!

We can't take the
bottle like that.

I'll show you how we'll take it.

You can show that,
but you won't take it in this car.

Who are you to say that?
- Hey! Hey! Kutta!

If you are particular
in bringing the bottle,

come there in an auto rickshaw.

Don't they have any other job?

Stop! Stop!

Get out.

Faizal!

There is alcohol!

In my tummy!

If you try to hide alcohol
or marijuana in my car,

in the name of a search...

I will kill you,
right here.

If you can leave Attappadi without
getting caught once again,

consider yourself lucky!

Try your level best!

Understood why I said
that now, you scoundrel?

Kutta, don't do that!

No!

The excise guy is playing
the flute for him!

Kumaran!

Drive straight to Nair's house.

Why sir?
- Do what I say!

Hey Nair!

Come out!

Isn't anyone here?

Hey lady!

Your husband's Khaki uniform?

You can nail it on
to your wall now.

The entire town is with him...

Even though he's about to lose his job,
all the policemen are with him...

Apart from all that, even the excise guys
are with him, out of the love for Khaki.

But whatever this Koshy did,
I did it all alone!

Tell him that!

Hey! One minute!

You have all the big people including
ministers within your arms, right?

So, all this is nothing!

Well, which playwright writes all
these silly dialogues for you?

Is it your daddy?

If you talk about my dad..
- Calm down, kid.

You must have seen the world.

But you haven't seen what you
need to see up close! Got it?

Well... If you leave like that...

Hey!

Your mommy is not dead, right?

Go ahead and kill her!

Let her die, without being
embarrassed about her son.

Pathetic!

Got enough from her, right?

Yeah!
Kind of.

Just half of her is
enough to knock you out.

How are you going to
bear ME then, sir?

Let's go.

Hey!
I'll lose my job.

Let it go.

I'll raise him somehow.

But...

Don't spare that fellow!

You've never done
what I've said,

and I've never done what
you've said so far, right?

If you make some black tea,
I'll drink it.

Why is Kurian John's son silent?

You've only seen your dad unleashing
his might in Kottayam & Kattappana.

This is not the age in which
he was mighty & powerful!

He has not done anything
illegal, Koshy.

He has only helped you.

Help? This?
- Ummen, you shut up!

Continue. - Since liquor was seized,
excise department should have taken you.

If they had taken you after you laid
hands on an excise officer,

you would have been
beaten up until sunrise.

Yeah, right!
- One slap I'll give you!

You were cheering him, right?
Now don't open your mouth!

Continue, Advocate.

That's why Nair took you, claiming
that there was an IPC offense.

He could have seized the
vehicle if he wanted to.

He could have added the
driver as an accused, too.

He didn't do it, right?

And what did you do?

What you took away from him,
was not just his uniform and medal.

It was his goodwill
of so many years...

and the morale of those
honest policemen, as well.

What should I do now?

Your dad's rage ended when
you submitted the phone, right?

Enough! Stop it.
Get going from here!

Even if us men don't need it,

the women & kids who are sleeping
in our houses, need peace of mind.

How?
What about me going there to sign?

I've filed the petition.

Even if it is stayed,
we'll get it from the High Court.

That's my guarantee.
- Isn't that enough?

Nair's hearing is
happening tomorrow.

With that, a decision
will be made in his case!

Advocate!

This hearing...

Can we do anything
about that now?

What can we do?

Didn't you already
submit the video, Koshy?

Ummen, get going.

I have a meeting in Thrisshur.

What about you?

Let it be morning.

Okay then.

Okay, bro.

What I did...

It was wrong, sir.

I am helpless, Ayyappan Nair.

The evidence is so solid.

I know, sir.

I don't have anything
to argue or prove.

And... I didn't do that seeing
his influence at the top, sir.

It's only out of humanity.

I don't have any
regrets about that.

Out of humanity?

Pouring alcohol for the accused,
tampering the seized goods.

That too, at the police station,
which is a declared dry-land.

Even if you blame it on humanity,
isn't it a grave anomaly, Nair?

It's not the humanity that the media
& human rights guys talk about, sir.

It has some other areas too.

Leave that.

And the anomaly!

When a tribal girl from Attappadi
with a sharp tongue..

... pointed out the atrocities
done by many big shots,

I got a call from the top to declare
her as a Maoist and arrest her!

I married her the very next day.

At this age, I have done
such a grave anomaly, sir.

So...

that's all I
have to say, sir.

Shall I leave?
- Okay. Go!

Let's see.

Jessie...

Done?

27 years of law enforcement,
has come to an end.

Now I'm free.

You don't worry.

Your suspension will
be withdrawn today.

Jessie John?

Go!

Ayyappetta...

That Koshy is a
thickheaded fellow.

Because of this, don't go
back to your old...

What is it?

Sir...

Ayyappan Nair is someone who has
won 3 detective excellence badges.

A rare police officer with unblemished
records, in his 27 years of service.

But... what can I do, Satheesh?

Sir, I wasn't asking you to
write that in the report.

Can't you mention it
in the covering letter?

I will do that.
But it's futile.

Carry on, Satheesh.
Let me finish this.

Hey!

Hey! I have to get in!

Ticket?

One more ticket to Agali.

No. I'll get down
at the next stop.

Here's the balance.

Who else has to buy the ticket?

There?

Did you buy?

I was waiting there to
meet you before leaving.

What was done was wrong...

Do you feel so?

What you did or what I did?

What you did!

If it's a relief for you,

I thought I'll meet you in person and say
sorry. That's why I got into this bus.

But...

I'm not able to.

I can understand the
gravity of your losses.

Still...

Counting my losses can wait.

From today,

you can start
counting your losses!

I don't have any influence!

You can use the influence you have!

I'll show you where I'm
going to make you end up!

If you want to leave
from here, you can!

But wherever you go,

I will follow you there.

So you'll stop it only after
seeing my blood, is it?

You are the one who
stopped, right?

I am just going to start.

Stop the bus!
- There's no stop here.

Stop it, I say!

Hey!

You don't have a job now, right?

Why should you spend
money in vain now?

Let everything be at
your convenience.

I will be here, in Attappadi.

Until your rage ends!

In case it won't end so easily,

I will leave only after ending it.

Did you hear me,
you bloody son of Nair?

This space is not enough for me.

You get down now.

Move!

Let's go!

Didn't you say that you'll take out
a bunch which you left to ripen,

only after I get out
of the uniform, right?

Take it out!

Come on, take it out!

Take it out!

Oh my God!
- You..!!

No, sir.
- Leave me.

You!! - Don't move!
- No, sir.

We're not part of this!

Just watch!

Let me go, sir!

Sir! Sir!

Don't do it, sir!

No, sir!

Sir, what are you doing?
- Move!

- Save me!

Stop!

Stop it!

What madness is this?

Take the vehicle back!

Take it back!

Oh no!
- What are you doing?

Do you want to die?

Take your car back!

You don't have a complaint.

If you do,

I'll dig out your house,
family & kids from the hill top,

and throw them into a gorge!

What have you done?

There's a stay for his appeal,
not to demolish the shop.

That's why I demolished it.

I don't have a law anymore, sir.

Shall we go?

Have you heard of
'Kummatti' (folk performance)?

What?
- Kummatti.

Not the Thrisshur Kummatti.
Mundoor Kummatti.

Long back, landlords used to bring
Tamil labourers in Kummatti attire.

To finish off the Harijan comrades who
were union workers who opposed them.

Two Kummattis got done.

Many comrades were dead.

But for the next Kummatti, 13 of
those Tamil labourers were dead.

Police never found out who did it,
but the party did.

A 25 year old boy was brought
in the Kummatti attire,

in front of MLA Chathan Master.

Master told him - 'What
you did is not wrong'

'It's survival'

'But whatever you do hereafter,
law should be on your side'

Saying that, Master forcefully
made him join the police force.

His name is Ayyappan Nair.

Later, he got a nickname -
Mundoor Maadan (Mundoor Vampire)

Ever since he got into the uniform,
he became quite calm.

Sobered down.

And you took away that
uniform from him, like this.

Hereafter, he has no law.

We have to wait and see, Koshy...

What's going to happen to you!

Don't stay here, sir.
Let's go.

I can't go like that, Kumaran.

Advocate has promised us, right?
- Not that.

If I go,

he will come after me,
with such fireworks.

And my dad will make it explode!

In this old age,
he will have to go to jail.

Moreover, Ruby and the kids...

... won't be able to
bear such theatrics.

For the time being,

it's better to stay
here, in Attappadi.

Start the car. I need to go to Anaikatti,
and have a couple of drinks.

Even otherwise, that scoundrel's
shop had to be demolished.

Sujith, we should
consider the law, right?

Sir, it's Thaju.

Well, sir....

Should we enter it in the GD?

Okay sir.

Your performance was superb.

I understood that it was a show
you put up for Koshy, as well.

If you wear the Khaki, follow
only the law, do only your duty.

That was his advice, right?

If you're going to
take this route,

I will follow only the law.

Even if I am up against
a Mundoor Vampire!

I will do what I have to do.

I didn't ask for your help.

You won't get it.

Go!

Sir...

What is it?

I've done something unlawful,
in a case I charged.

Since you've decided
to follow the law,

you should correct it.

Which case?

Koshy's case.

You needn't come here now, Dad.

Ummen and Joby are coming, right?
That's enough.

And... send some cash with them.

The ATMs here don't work properly.

Okay.

Will your dad come?

Didn't you hear me
asking him not to come?

Who knows if he would
listen to that!

He is my dad after all!

Since he heard this,
he might do something nasty.

These guys are so noisy!

Bring that bottle.

I will show you where I am
going to make you end up.

That was his dialogue.

What did he mean?

He...

What did he mean?

If he wants to beat you up,
he doesn't have to delay it.

What if he's planning to kill you?

What are you saying?

Will anyone kill for
such a trivial matter?

What did Kuttamani do?

He almost threw him
into the gorge, right?

He is a mad man!

Compared to that...

Yes.

Compared to that...

this is a huge problem!

Don't be afraid, sir.

If a person is shaken,
he is good for nothing.

Fear?
For me?

Kumaran, I am not bragging.

I swear!

I have also killed...

... 6-7 people.

In Kashmir.

When I was in Shopian sector.

I'm not bluffing, man!

I swear I've killed them.

I understood, sir.

But...

in this matter,

justice is on his side.

That's the fear I have.

No... Not fear...

I mean...
- Fright?

Yes, fright!

Can you shut up and
drive the car?

Fright, it seems!

They are coming to check
if we have alcohol.

Losers.

What is this lightning visit for, sir?

Don't take the trouble.
There's no alcohol in the car.

There was alcohol once, right?

12 bottles!

Hey! Get down!
- Why?

Get down, I say.
- Tell me why?

What?
- You want to know why?

Where are you taking him?

The vehicle which was used to smuggle
alcohol can be confiscated.

And the driver is
an accused too.

Put him in our jeep.

Sir, don't take me.

My sir will be all alone.
- Sir, take this car.

Sir, this is a trap!
Sir!

Come here!
- Don't stay here any longer.

Get going from here as soon as you can!
- Shut up & get in!

This was a nasty move!

You're the one who made all
the nasty moves, right?

This is the law.

Start the car!

Hey! Stop! Stop!

My phone and purse
are inside the car.

I need to take them,
and my bag from the boot.

Everything in the car will be submitted
in court, after adding it to the records.

Collect it from there
if you want.

Hey! You!

Is this what you meant...

when you said you'll show
where you'd make me end up?

This is not that.

For that, you need
to go a little further.

Are you tired?

To get me tired...

... you will have to sweat
some more.

You still have to go 10-12 kms.

If you need a lift,

you have to ask for it.

This is an area where
elephants cross.

Elephants are better.

I don't need a lift.

Are you scared or what?

Are you trying to scare me?

I've asked...

... for a lift!

Let's go!

Take your hands off!

Has someone started
from Kattappana?

For what?

To take your body back.

Who are you, man?

Mundoor Vampire, it seems!

Not just you!
I have also killed people!

It is easy to kill.

Surviving needs skill.

Do you have that?

If I am going back
to Kattappana,

I will go back alive!

Only if you wish to see that,

you will be alive to see it.

Do you want to see me turning you into
a dead body, right here, right now?

Do you?

I won't lay my hands
on you today.

But that day is not far away.

When you exhaust all that you
can do using your influence.

and stand with your feet on the
ground all alone, like me.

That day...

... you will go back to Kattappana,
only in a coffin.

Sir...

This is Koshy's phone.

I haven't added it
to the records.

You leave now.

What is this?

Where were you?

This is not Koshy.

It's Ayyappan Nair.

Where is he?

I don't have him with me.

But his head is within my arms!

So that I can strangle
him whenever I want to!

You don't know what all I can do!

If you touch my child...

You can do something using your influence,
only if I am living by the law, right?

In my case, that's over.

Now just receive whatever
I'm going to do.

You..!!

Let his dad and family
flare up in fear tonight.

It's the arrogance that he
learned from home, right?

This is Kurian.
- Yes, this is George.

I cannot do that, Kurian.

George, let me talk.

He cannot obey me, right?
Let him receive what he deserves!

Hello, Achaya...
- Ummen...

Were you able to reach him?

No, Achaya.
It's ringing. He's not picking up.

Kumaran's phone is also ringing,
but he's not picking up.

Achaya, what if...

Hey!

Don't stress.
Nothing will happen!

They have left from here.

Okay, Achaya.

Okay.

Things are going smoothly, right?
Isn't that enough?

Okay then.

Don't lock it.
I need a room!

Do you have money with you?
Let me see it.

There must be Ayyappan Nair's
ban for that too, right?

I cannot disobey if Sir
asks me to do something.

I owe him!

Sir, I've reached the station.

Yes. I have sent the
squad already, sir.

Okay, sir.
He's going on calling and pestering me.

Thaju, something has
happened to Koshy.

What is it, sir?

Ayyappan Nair has called Koshy's
father, from his phone.

Let them call each other, sir.
Why do we care?

It's not like that.

Koshy sir's phone was in the car.

What?
- Yes, sir. It was in the car.

Come, Sujith.
Come on!

Koshy's phone was in the car.

It was.
- I didn't see that in the records.

Well...

I gave it to Ayyappan sir.

You're talking about an official
matter to a superior officer.

Sir!

Hey Sujith!

Sir, CPO Sujith.

Okay.

Right now, it's just
Sujith and Satheesh.

Hey! It's not just another death.

I'm trying to avoid a murder here.

Satheesh!

What?
- Well..

Isn't that what you said now?

Or forget it.

Sir...

When someone kills for defense,
it's an ordinary death.

When it's for an unfair reason,
that's a murder.

I joined the police only after
getting beaten up a lot by the police,

for showing black flags,
and picketing the secretariat.

To earn a living!

What's happening now is
also a protest, sir.

Whatever you say, or even if I lose my
job, I'll stand by Ayyappan sir.

Your arrogance of being the District Joint
Secretary of the Police Association...

I'm seeing it only today.

You gave me a chance
only now, right?

You needn't sweat
it out at midnight.

He would have reached
the lodge by now.

Four of you come with me.

Thaju...

Sir.

CPO Sujith needn't come.
You guys come.

Sir.

Koshy...

Why are you lying here?

I wasn't given a room.

Ayyappan Nair's injunction order.

I won't get a room
unless I pay money.

You took my purse, right?

Then how will I have money?

Get up!

I will tell him.

He will give you a room.

Not necessary!

I don't accept charity!

I have been out in the cold
for 3-4 days, in a trench.

Don't you want to
have some food?

I've been in the trench
without having food, as well.

Okay then.

Come, let's go.

Hey!

If I could get that phone,
I can make a call to my house.

Well.. Isn't this charity?

You've been in the trench
without a phone also, right?

Then no need!

Sir...

No, sir.

We haven't found Koshy yet.

We are searching for him, sir.

Yes. We questioned Ayyappan Nair.

There's nothing in it, sir.

The 24 hours you gave me
have just started, right?

Let me see.

There's no one here.

This is locked.
- Chetta! Hello!

Brother!

Go and ask in that shop!

Ummen!

Bro is here!

Bro, when we couldn't reach you on
the phone, we got really tensed.

Brother...

Yes, Achaya.
Koshy is here.

No! No!
Not a scratch on him.

I'll put him on.

It's your dad.

Dad...

Shout after you listen
to me fully, dad.

Hey! I think it's them.
- But I...

One tea.

It's easy to say that.

Yesterday, I...

Hey! Get me a bun.

How can you say that?
I was all alone, dad!

Give the phone to her, dad.

Here you go, bro.

It's nothing.

How, Ruby?

I cannot leave from here now.
Don't you know that?

I have a phone with
me now, right?

Call me whenever you want.

Okay.

Here.

Call Advocate Rahim and
tell him about Kumaran.

I'll call him.
- Will he get bail today?

It would take at least 5-6 days.

Anyway, ask him to come
here in the evening.

Pay the money and come.

Chetta, we need 2 more rooms.

So I'll need a different ID card.

Please move, bro. I am in a hurry.
- Give your ID card.

Let me just check in.

Who are you?
Didn't you see people waiting here?

Didn't you recognize me?

I am Ummen.
- What?

That's my friend!
Koshy.

Brother, I need two rooms.

You get him settled.
Let me sort this.

Go with him, brother.
- Bro...

Hey!

Koshy shouldn't know
this at any cost.

Argh!
Am I deaf or what?

Didn't you say this a
hundred times on the phone?

Kuriachan told me specifically.

Get going, or else we'll inaugurate
it by punching your face!

How many days should we be here?

Will I be able to see the
Makaravilakku (festival)?

We needn't delay it, bro.

Ask them to show who the guy is.

Let's go after burying
him here somewhere.

Suni!
- What is it, bro?

How many people have
you buried so far?

My dear bro, I saw many places here
which are perfect to bury someone.

That's why I said that.
Leave it.

This is not an ordinary case.

Only if that guy lays his hands
on our boy, get into attack mode.

Otherwise, play defense.
Understood?

And from what I've about
our guy's behaviour,

he's the kind who'd
beg for a pounding.

It won't take much time.

Lord Ayyappa, help me!

You took up this contract
while fasting for pilgrimage?

If that's the case, how can
butchers go on pilgrimage?

This is the job that feeds us, right?

Hey!

Buy a bottle of water.

Hey!

Close the door & go!

Here you go.

That's enough.

Chetta, one tea.

Ummen!

The Chiyaram team had 12 guys...
- Hey! Hey!

Ayyappan Nair!
- Where?

He's at the tea shop outside.
- Get up!

So what?

Don't scare the boys!

You..!!

Bro!

We just got here! Won't even give us
time to stretch our backs, rascal!

Just see to it that things don't get
complicated. Hold them back!

Move away!

Koshy! Koshy!
Move!

Leave me.
- Calm down, bro.

Leave me.
I need you!

Nair!

Not just your bike!

I will burn you and
your family alive!

Now the game is going
to be different!

Bloody @%@%@%

This can easily be settled by
paying 500 or something, right?

Talk it out and
make a compromise.

Don't pinch and scratch
each other like children!

Who are you?

We've come to check out
a plantation, sir.

So you've come to farm here?

The soil is good here, right?

Do you do farming here, sir?

No! I spray medicine.

On the gut!

Hey! Move! Move!

Sir has to leave quickly and
spray medicine... on the gut!

Bro, he realized who we are.

Let him realize, man.
Our job would become easy then, right?

I don't have any complaint.

I...

... fell down from the
terrace of my house.

How can you be scared
like this, Mani?

If we file a case, it's 307.
Murder attempt.

He will go to jail for
around 25 days anyway.

If you're scared to give a statement
to the police, you needn't.

We'll bring the magistrate.

You can give him the
statement under section 164.

Then? Will the magistrate come and
stand guard for my wife and kids?

Let's go!

Hey!

He won't calm down if he stays
in jail for a few days.

How will it be if his baby and
breast-feeding wife go to jail?

Isn't that enough?
- You fu...@%@^

Kutta!

This is a problem between men!

Don't drag the women in
the house into this!

Your damn..

Come, Advocate!

What is her name?
- Kannamma.

Kannamma!

Hey! Do you know that Kannamma is a worker
of the association called 'Kanavu'?

Yes, sir.

Do you know that 'Kanavu' is the
frontal organization of Maoists,

in police records?

Yes, sir.

Section 324 has been charged
against Kannamma.

That too, a bailable offense.

Slapping the tribal extension
officer is not the offense.

Sir.

A group of Maoists attacked the
Government office, led by Kannamma.

That's the offense.

Understood?
- Yes, sir.

Arrest her immediately charging
additional sections. No considerations!

Sir...

She has a baby whom she
is still breastfeeding.

As per law, we will have to take
that baby also into custody.

Then you will be answerable to the
media & human rights commissions.

You are the investigating officer.
You should answer them!

Sir, isn't there any other way?

As he is about to lose his job
he's trying to be an outlaw, right?

Is this a wild west movie or what?

This is what happens if
he messes with big shots.

Hey! Nair is your friend, right?

Make him understand and solve
that issue he has with Koshy.

I will try, sir.

Try! If you fail after trying, you
should arrest Kannamma within 24 hours.

Sir.

I know that you'll evade this.

If the arrest doesn't happen,

I need a look-out notice to
be given to the newspapers,

with Kannamma's photo on it,

to be prepared and given
to me day after tomorrow.

Sir...
- You may go!

Okay sir.

You didn't say anything.

What should I do?

I didn't start this to
end it like that, sir.

Him and people like him with
this attitude, need treatment.

If the treatment doesn't work,
there will be death.

That's okay.

This is not a personal issue because
I lost my uniform or police medal.

The arrogance that he can do
anything, using his connections.

That's the issue.
I'm reacting to that issue!

Didn't you see now?

Forget that she's my wife.

The intervention to arrest and send a
tribal woman and her baby to jail...

The power and pressure of
connections and influence!

That is the issue, sir.
That should be treated!

He has reached.

I'm leaving.

Ayyappetta, don't go.

I'm out of my mind, sir.

Ayyappetta, I'm not done talking.
Sit down.

See! Those are goons he
brought from the south.

That was already reported to me.

But I can nab them only if
there's some issue, right?

I'll create an issue, sir.

I'll create it.

Sir...
- Call Koshy.

Tell me.
- Simon!

Nair is inside.

Ask your boy to come out
without creating any issue.

It's a police station.
There's a limit to which we can interfere.

Here.
Sign on this.

Haven't you filed a petition
to modify the bail condition?

I did!

But I withdrew it.

Since I've decided to stay here,

this is more convenient.

No.

You can go back to Kattappana.

I'll manage this.

Even otherwise, don't think
I'll stay in Attappadi forever,

for his convenience.

Well...

Are you hinting at
a compromise, sir?

I am ready.

I am ready for anything.

But...

first, he has to hit me.

I don't have a
self-starting feature.

I can start only
if I receive one.

What is it?

Don't delay it, Nair.
Come on!

Stop your damn challenge!

Who do you think you are?
- Ayyappetta, no!

Hey kiddo!

There is some problem.
Things have gone awry.

Ayyappetta, no!

Koshychaya!

Stop! - Leave me!
- It's the station! No!

Get up!

Shall we go in and attack? - Where are
you going? It's the police station.

Ayyappetta!
- Ayyappan sir! No!

Charge a case now!

Murder attempt inside
the police station!

Charge a case against me and
put me in jail. I care a damn!

Leave me!

But him!!

I will leave only after
finishing him off!

Send him away! Don't ruin this further.
- Take him away.

Manoj, take him.
- Come on!

Get out!
- Leave me!

Bro, let's go.
- Hey! Nair!

You need a place where there are
policemen to hold me back, for a safety?

That too, the police station itself!

I am not Kuttamani.

If you are brave enough,
come outside and clash!

Let's not create a problem here.
- Come out, you bloody...!!

No! Come on!
- Get into the car.

Go!
- Him and his damn show-off!

Come on!
Start the car!

Start the car!

Go! Follow them!

Two people,
in front of Koshy's room. Go!

Sir, don't say no.
I'll be one among those two.

I'll say no.
This is for protection.

Then... I need one week leave.

Using your influence,
can you get me a transfer...

... somewhere?

Okay!
Go!

I said what I had to say.

And Kannamma's arrest...

That can come from the top my head too.
Remember that!

Kannamma's arrest
won't happen, sir.

Send someone to collect
a photo of hers.

You can put out a
look-out notice at least.

Hey! Hey!

Open it now.

Bro, police is waiting outside.

Why are you here?
- Just like that.

A protection for you, sir.

But I didn't ask for protection!

I know how to protect myself!

You needn't ask for this.

This is a law & order precaution.

Then why don't you come and...

... sit on my lap?

Bloody schmucks in Khaki!

This is a bloody
messed up contract.

Between the devil
and the deep sea!

That's our situation.

Hey! He is coming.
Come fast.

Suni!

Simonetta!!
Get in, fast!

Get in!
Close it!

Close it!

Go inside, old man.
- What is this?

What are you doing?
- Take him away!

Open it.
- Get lost!

You...!!

Oh my God!

Oh my God!

What's the noise?
- Don't know, bro.

We've been hearing it for a while.
- Move, let me see.

No! No! It's nothing.
- Let me see!

Sit here, bro! It's nothing. Why should we?
- Move, I say!

You shouldn't step out now.

Whom are you beating up now?

Sir, don't throw me down!

Sir, don't let me go.

Do you know them?

How will I know them?

Didn't you bring them?

Why would I bring them?
Are you crazy or what?

Don't hit me!

Give me the key.
- Move!

Give it.
- I'll give it.

Go in!
- Don't hit me, sir!

Go in!

Go inside!

Should I tell you specially?

Here!

Put them in the jeep!
- Kuriachaya!

Nair beat the crap out
of our Simon and boys.

Now the police is taking them.

Please make someone
call from the top.

Get into the jeep!

Bloody scoundrel!

Humiliating me?

Bro..!!

Tell me!
Were you also aware of this?

Kuriachayan had told us that
you shouldn't know this.

Nair!

There's a correction in
what I said earlier.

I don't know them and I
didn't bring them either.

But my dad sent them
without my knowledge.

So?

If you didn't come at
me because I said so...

Come!

I am ready!

I am also ready.

But...

... you are under
police protection now.

If I hit you now,

I'll have to hit them too.

They are my boys!

Go!
Go and give your statement.

You admitted that your father
sent these goons, right?

Why?
To kill Ayyappan Nair.

That murder attempt is
what you saw here now.

I can charge a case against
your dad for murder attempt.

That's why I'm saying this..

Kannamma's arrest...

Look-out notice on
the newspaper...

DySP shouldn't call me
asking for all these.

And stop your nasty games of
attacking his family, with this.

You heard me?

Otherwise, your father will be
the first accused in this case.

You...!!

Haven't you had enough?

Sujith...
- Put them both in the jeep.

Get in!

Come on!

Get into the jeep!
- Bro!

Get inside!
- Go! Go!

Get inside.
- Come on! - Bro!

What are you watching here?
Get going!

Get going!

Go!

Come, Advocate.

I'm not coming, Koshy.

What?

Koshy...

There are advocates who are
much better than me in town.

I'm not such a good advocate.

Having a conscience
is the problem.

You can hire someone else.

Kumaretta...

No... I mean...

Kumaran!

What is it, son?

Come!

Get the car key
and bag and come.

Stop! Stop!

Stop!

Hey!

Where are you going?

I'm going to watch the
Kandassankadavu boat race.

Coming?

Let's go.

Kumaran!

Go straight.

Straight to Kattappana.

I need to talk to him.

Whom?

My daddy!

One morning in the house.

After that, back to Attappadi.

'Lost the rhythm,
lost the tambourine too'

'The night has burned into ashes'

'A flame is ablaze
on that pile of ashes'

'O wind, blow strongly'

'Did you see that flame?'

'Without bothering about
the consequences'

'Will you blow or not?'

'Will you come or not?'

'Lost the rhythm,
lost the tambourine too'

'The night has burned into ashes'

Kumaran...
- Yes, sir.

You can go home.

What are you going
to tell your father?

Nothing, man.
You may go.

Come when I call you.

Wow! Papa!

What's happening, girls?

Come, let me ask you.

Come!

How are you?
- Ichaya, what happened on your forehead?

That's a long story.

Is mom sleeping?
- No.

We don't have classes
for three days.

Wow! Three days?
That's nice.

Shall I get you coffee?
- Yes.

Where is dad?
- He has gone for a walk.

Ayyappan Nair made you drink
lots of water, right?

Then why are you so thirsty?

Drink some if you want to.

Kurian John!

You are the first accused.

The offense is murder attempt.

It's just an attempt.

Not murder, right?

Your advocate left the case, right?

I've hired someone
else in his place.

Ruby...

Go inside with the kids.

Why are you growling?

She has left.

Stop swallowing your words and
say whatever you want to say!

The game you're playing over my
head, making a fool out of me?

Stop it today!

You've got this new addiction of
playing a game, at this age!

When you lost your ground to play
in this town and in politics,

this game landed on your lap!

And you really enjoy
playing that game!

I know that it's not out of
your concern for me.

Arranging goons around
me without my knowledge,

getting his wife and
child arrested,

That too, using my friends!

This is not a great game or anything!
It's despicable behaviour!

Listening to your word, I...
- Stop it!

If you raise your voice against me,
I'll knock your teeth out!

I did everything thinking that
you shouldn't die a sad death

at the hands of that giant!

And you're talking about
honour and ethics now?

Once I decide to
bring someone down,

I'll shove my ethics and
Bible up the attic!

That's my style!

Don't try to teach me
what to do, sergeant!

I won't!

But this is an issue between
Ayyappan and Koshy.

Kurian needn't interfere in that!

He didn't touch my family, right?
That's why I'm saying this!

Redial all those calls you made
to get his wife & child arrested,

and block that arrest.

Otherwise it will
either be me or him!

This will end only
if one of us dies.

That's how the lives of men
are, you spineless fellow!

What about the lives
of women then?

If that happens, one
would be a widow,

and the other one would be
the wife of a murderer.

Ichaya!

Stop this!

Give a compensation for whatever
he has lost and end this!

I can't bear this.

Shut up and go inside!

I am talking to my husband.

If you can't listen,

you can go inside, dad!

Couldn't you say this earlier?

I am your husband!

He is only your father-in-law!

You've been living in this house
holding my children tight,

scared even to take a breath...

Ichaya...

Praise be to the Lord, Father.

Here you go, brother-in-law.
Both papers are here.

It has been entered on the
register clearly, right?

Yes, all that is perfect.
You needn't worry.

So thank you, brother-in-law!

I mean... Father!

Okay.

Sir...
- Come.

Medical certificate.

This is the discharge summary.

It's not a discharge, but
I'm absconding actually.

I escaped after 7 days of
the 30 days of treatment.

Our idea will work out only
if it's presented like that.

This is the statement
in my own handwriting.

Sir, the matter is simple.

I am addicted to alcohol.

That day, when the alcohol level
in my blood dropped drastically,

I became violent.

To make me sober,

as a medicine,

Nair poured some alcohol for me.

Why did you have to
complicate it so much?

Now, to get his job back, you are
becoming a patient on record.

That's all right, sir.

When this Nair got out of his uniform,
it's like he got out of jail.

This wild freedom is a very
basic instinct of his.

He is experiencing that for the first
time after he turned 25, only now.

To tame him,

the best medicine is your
department’s uniform, sir.

From what I heard, the enquiry
report is still on DGP's table.

He hasn't signed
it till yesterday.

If he signs it, it's over!

Let me see.

You should do all
that you can, sir.

Yeah, right. This is my only job or what?
You get going!

Thank you so much, sir.

Who are you?

Dad!

Dad!

Come!

Dad!

Go inside.

Isn't Koshy home?

We've spoken over the phone.

I am Ayyappan Nair.

Koshy's enemy.

I have seen you as well.

On TV!

Very good!

So you recognize me!

Koshy?
- He is not here.

He left to Attappadi yesterday.

Ichaya...

Dad has a gun with him.

Pardon me.

I don't believe you.

Can you please get
him on the phone?

Ruby!

It's Ichayan.

He asked me to pass
the phone to him.

Hello!

You got into my house, is it?

I am here!
In Attappadi!

When I didn't see you for
2 days in Attappadi,

I thought you got scared
and went back to your house.

Since you've reached there,
let's meet there.

Hey! Hey! Hey!

If you want to meet me, leave from
there immediately and come here!

Otherwise... consider that this
is the end of your life!

Understood!

Your dad is standing here,
holding a gun.

If he shoots me
down in his house,

it will be a senior citizen's
self-defense, right?

I can't help but say this.

You are a family of
imbeciles, is it?

Okay then.
See you there!

Hey!

Hey old man!

Please show it to me.

Just out of curiosity!

Here you go, you bloody!!!

Hello? Hello?

Hey!
Hello?

Ruby!

Hey!

I'll send this with him.
- Say something, Ruby!

Dad!
- Otherwise...

search for it in the
coffin that brings him!

Someone pick up that
phone and say something!

Ruby!

Ruby, what is it?

What's happening there?

Hey!

Dad!

Hello!

Dad!
- She has fallen unconscious here.

When she regains consciousness,
I'll ask her to call you back.

Dad...
- What happened there?

Not dad...

Kurian John!

He came home
and threatened me.

He came to my house..
This Kurian's house!

From now on, this is not an issue
between Koshy and Ayyappan alone.

Kurian can intervene!

He went to my house.

If I don't get back at him for this,
why should I...

We were finding ways to
settle everything, right sir?

Yet?

This will not end with
my decision alone.

Now... however it is
meant to end...

let it end like that!

Hey! Did you see Ayyappan sir?

He had come to your house.

I told him the address correctly,
after checking the FIR.

Do you know where
Ayyappan Nair's house is?

I know!

I'll be going there.

Oh! His wife's arrest?

No point going there!

He shifted his wife & child
from there long back!

Now you'll need protection only after
Ayyappan sir comes back, right?

Okay then!

If there's no one to stay there,

why does he need a house?

Hey!

When did you hear the sound?

Around 3 AM in the morning.

Did you see who drove the JCB?
- No. I just heard a loud noise.

Either Kuttamani or Koshy.

No one else is going to do this.

Sir..
- What's the status?

None of them have seen the
person who drove the JCB, sir.

Must be the revenge for
Nair demolishing his shop.

Take Kuttamani into custody immediately.
- Why?

This wasn't Kuttamani, sir. It's Koshy.
- What?

He told me yesterday that he'll
be going to Nair's house.

Where is Ayyappan Nair?

Sir went to Kattappana.

To Koshy's house.
- Why?

Well.. when Koshy went missing
from here for 2 days...

Hey! Come on!

Let's go to Kainthan's lodge.
Get the bikes!

I think the people here will
kill him before Nair does.

Did Ayyappan Nair know about this?
- Yes.

I informed him.

Where has he reached?

He's on his way back.

When I called,
he was having tea at Kalkandy.

Damn it!

Come on, fast!

He will reach the
lodge immediately.

Sujith, I'll get back to you later!

You and your damn spy work!

Hey Koshy!

It's Nair.

Isn't he here?
Koshy?

Come!

No, sir. Don't!
Sir!

Sir, he is a mad man!

Sir, our car!

Come on!

I've left some for you!

Come on!
- Wait! Wait!

Wait! No one has to interfere!

Let them finish their
issue between themselves!

Ayyappan Nair has locked him.
Wait!

Stop gaping and call the police!

Sumesh, come on!

Move away!

Hey! Nair!
Leave him!

Hey! Leave him!

Let him go!

Leave him, I say!

Move away!
Take him!

Son...
- No, sir.

Walk!

Put both these rascals
into the jeep!

Trying to kill each other!

Take him.
- Move!

Come on, walk.

Move away!

Make way, all of you!

When I closed my eyes thinking
that things would settle down...

you guys are challenging
the police now?

If he goes to your house,
you will destroy his house, is it?

You think this is
Haryana or Bihar?

And you!!

You have a feeling that whatever you do,
people here will be on your side!

Leave that.
That emotion is over!

Joekkuttan, put them in the cell first.

Get up!

You can accept it only
if I give it, right?

I'm not giving it.

What?

I don't have a complaint.

My house was destroyed
in a tornado.

Long back, a train fell down, right?
At Peruman?

Only the train and the storm knew that...

This was such a storm.

Don't hang on to this, sir.
Let him go.

Okay.
I can let him go.

Instead, you go to the cell now.

Why?

For burning my car?

It was me who burnt my car!

A vehicle which wasn't fit for use...

I burned it.

That's the spirit.
See!

You didn't see!

I'll show you!

Stop it!

Did you burn the car?

That too, at a public place.

That's an offense, right?

Yes, it's an offense.

Public nuisance - a fine of Rs. 500.

Here's my 500.

I don't need a receipt.

So this will end only
by dying or killing.

That decision is final?

Yes.

Not by dying!

By killing!

I was talking for myself.

I'm not going to
get a Bharat Ratna

if one more murder case enters
this year's crime register.

But as long as I am
in uniform here,

I won't create any circumstance
for you both to touch each other!

That's my decision.

First, Nair can go.

You both should shadow Nair.

Okay sir.
- Hey!

Drop him at the
lodge in the jeep.

Okay sir.
- 4 people for Koshy's protection.

Okay sir.
- And yeah!

Take your guns.

If there is violence, don't try to
hold them back or control them.

Shoot below the knee, whoever it is.
- Okay sir.

Sir, what about me?

You?

You are suspended!

I'll give the order before noon.
Go and sit there.

Hey Koshy!

Hereafter, if you decide to fight
against each other, hiding from us...

I'll give you a tip so
that you don't die.

Don't fall within his grasp.

He will strangle you!

Your spine will break and
pierce into your lungs & heart.

The postmortem report of the Tamilians
who died long back, said so.

Didn't he lock you
today in his grasp?

If I was late by 10
seconds to reach there,

you wouldn't be alive now.

He only beat up
those goons, right?

He didn't lock them, right?

But in your case, his first move
was to lock you in that grasp.

So that means...

his challenge that he will kill you,
is not a threat.

It is his decision.

Try not to die.

Go!

Stop! Stop!
Stop the car! That's my dad!

I thought you'd only play through
the phone, sitting at home.

So who's at home now, dad?

Your wife and kids!

You are supposed to
protect them, right?

What can a father-in-law
do over there?

I'm asking this out of curiosity!

What the hell have
you come here for?

I'll tell you.

He will come for you
like a wounded pig,

when he knows that his wife
& child have been arrested.

It will be proved then,
whether you are my blood or not!

Call me 'dad' only after that!

This man!!!

Otherwise, escape from here!

I'll handle this.

Go!

Go and give company
to your wife!

Hey!

This is such a lousy tea!

Call that driver Sabu.

I need to know where dad
is staying in Attappadi.

Dad came here?

What is he doing here?

Yes. Dad shouldn't be here.

But my dad won't leave
if I ask him to, right?

So I'll ask them to take him!

Okay.

At the Forest Department's
IB in Sholayur.

Sir, this is Koshy.

You gave me a tip so that
I wouldn't die, right?

Shall I do a return favour?

Perfect son and dad!

Thaju, that 307 case?

Ayyappan Nair and Koshy's goons.

Add Kurian John as an accused

and get the statements and
remand report ready, quickly.

Isn't that a drastic step, sir?

Small steps won't work for him.

Hey! Everything is ready, right?

It's ready, sir.

Take him straight for medical check-up.
From there, to the Magistrate's house.

Once you get the remand report,
buy some food for him on the way.

The meal time at jail would be over.
- Okay sir.

Hey kiddo!

I've eaten food from the jail
several times.

Long back, when they used to serve only
wheat balls as food! So leave that.

When your DySP called, he said that I won't
be made an accused, and I am not one!

Let the DySP call again.
I'll tell him.

You will have to pay a fine for this.

So be it.

For now, let this
Ayyappan-Koshy season get over.

Next season can be between us.

If you are alive till then!

You too!

Hey! Don't delay it.
Take him!

Hello!

This is a police station.

Don't you know that you
shouldn't smoke here?

290 IPC is much lower
than 307, man!

Sir, give me those papers.

Once this is over,

they wouldn't want
your arrest.

Have you thought about
your future after that?

I can lease out that property.

Isn't that enough for
me and him to live?

Then, his education...

What expense would be there for a
tribal kid in a Government school?

Shall I go?

Don't borrow money
to fight the case.

Court will appoint a lawyer.

If you can look after the child,
you can take him.

You take the child.

I won't have time to look
after the child now.

She knows that.

Is he upstairs?
- No, sir.

He checked out and left.
- Where to?

Where is Koshy?

We don't know, sir.

Tell me!

Johnny...

Sir, we're on our way
back after getting bail.

We don't know!

He won't leave like that.

If he is in Attappadi,

he should be in front of me
before 10 AM tomorrow.

Otherwise...

... he will see me only
in Kattappana after that.

I didn't go away out of fear.

I moved to a place where
I wouldn't have protection.

For your convenience.

Anaikatti.

Come there.

None of the cops here will come all
the way there to hold me back, right?

Moreover...

It's a place where you and
I have zero influence.

Tomorrow morning.
10 AM.

Since you've decided,
why wait till tomorrow?

Why not today?

I need to arrange certain things.

I need to order a coffin for the
body to be taken from here.

And stuff like that...

I...

I talked a lot until now.

I didn't do much.

I'll get into action tomorrow.

Kumaretta...

Ayyappan Nair.

Kumaran..
- Yes.

There are some barbers who come to
the mortuary and shave the body.

Not even mothers can identify
the bodies in the coffin then.

We don't need such things happening.
Remember that!

Why are you talking
like this now, bro?

Hey!

If you think downward from the most extreme
situation that you may have to face,

it will be a cool mood for everything!

Kumaran...

If the need arises,
I'll ask for it.

You should give it then.
Don't lose focus.

No, sir.
- What is it, Kumaretta?

It's nothing.

What is it?
- I don't know.

Like you said!

Alone!

Standing with my
feet on the ground!

But you are not alone.

Shouldn't we have some
people who know us,

as an audience?

Is it to sign the witness statement,
while writing an inquest for your body?

Even though your wife
and child are in jail,

your flaring isn't over yet?

Then why don't you
finish my flaring?

What are you doing?
- Hey!

Don't you dare touch him!

Kill him, bro!

Sir!!

Give it here, you old man!
- Who are you? Leave me!

Sir!!

Where are you going, old man?
Stop there!

Charge!
- Pull them away!

Hold them!

Pull them away!
- Leave me!

Hold him!
- Calm down!

Don't strut around!

Leave me!

Koshy, enough!
Calm down!

Koshy!

Stop it, Nair.

Leave me.
- Enough!

Or I'll shoot you down!

No, Achaya.
Enough!

You have been reinstated
to the service!

Before 1 PM,

report to the station.

When they are in jail,
I don't need the uniform!

Leave me!
- They have been released.

IG didn't agree to
record the arrest.

It's true, man.

Calm down!

Stop this!

Achaya..
- Leave me.

You heard me, right?

You must report to the
station before 1 PM.

Sir.

Leave me.

Did you come out on your own,
when you exhausted all your influence?

I used all my influence
and tried my very best...

... to get you back
into your uniform.

Once you retire and get
out of your uniform,

will you come after me again?

Just don't come this way,
with your damn influence!

Who told you about my grasp?

I have an aunty in Mundoor.

She told me.

Ayyappetta, one minute.

The order to reinstate you
into service hasn't come.

But it will come.

Today or tomorrow.

You didn't give us time
to wait till then, right?

You do one thing.
Stay here, until the order comes.

Is it, sir?

You've issued the order?

Thank you so much, sir.

Thank you!

Now...

Nair is back in service.

On the way...

we should go to the sub-jail.

I don't think my dad would
forgive me until his death.

'And that's a happy ending,
as of now'

You have only one
more year left, right?

Shouldn’t you be posted
at the home station?

Why? Is it a punishment?
- No, sir.

I asked for it.

I am the new SI here.

There's a tradition of meeting all
the important people of the town

while taking charge, here
towards the south, right?

Ayyappan Nair.

Koshy Kurian.
