Hridayam (2022) - full transcript

The emotional journey of Arun, his carefree bachelor days in engineering college, and how he matures through various phases of life.

For the kind attention of passengers.

Train no. 6602...

Chennai Mail from

Mangalore to Chennai,

will reach platform

number 1 at 19:35 hours.

Sir, my friend got late

to leave from home.

He will reach by 7:45 PM.

Will the train wait here until then?

Why not?

I'll tell the driver!

Thank you, sir.

-Such a nice man.

-Yeah, right!

As if Indian Railways

is his ancestral property!

Shucks!

Please, sir. I'm no. 10 on the waiting list.

Get me a seat somehow.

This waiting list

is not a license...

for people who don't have a ticket

to board the train.

There are no berths

even for RAC tickets.

I'm fed up of Malayali students

like you, who come to Chennai.

Please, sir.

Just try! Somehow!

Somehow...

Please, sir.

Do one thing. There's a loser over there

who's no. 57 on the waiting list.

Go and sit with him.

Okay.

Thank you, sir. Thank you!

But sir...

Where is he sitting?

You'll know when you see him.

Got it?

Get going.

[singing a famous Malayalam song]

Pass the snack, please.

Excuse me.

-What is it?

-Err....

Are you no. 57 on the waiting list?

That's correct.

How did you know that?

Well, the ticket examiner

had told me.

Is that so?

Sit down.

Come on!

Are you studying in Chennai?

I'm going to join... KC Tech.

I'm also joining KC Tech.

New admission, ECE.

I'm also doing ECE.

So we're classmates, dude!

He has also done ECE.

He's working in LSB Corp now.

-Andrew.

-Arun.

I studied in KPR college.

Isn't it a good college?

It's a good college, alright.

But there's only one problem.

If we talk to girls,

we'll be dismissed immediately.

-Seriously?

-Yeah!

This problem isn't limited

to students alone.

The same rule applies

for the teachers there.

Separate seating for girls

and boys in the college bus,

with an iron rod in the centre.

-It's too much, man!

-But your college gives a lot of freedom.

KC Tech, Karappakkam.

Oh, it's a beautiful campus!

Brother...

-How's Chennai?

-Chennai?

You're going to be there

for the next four years, right?

When you board the train back home

once you finish your studies,

you'll feel as if someone is tugging

at your heartstrings.

At that moment, you'll realize

what Chennai is.

♪ Do you hear the voice? ♪

♪ Do you hear the voice of Mother Thamizh

Who lets her visitors flourish? ♪

Our college!

♪ Is it inviting you? ♪

♪ Is the college road inviting you,

Showering flowers upon you? ♪

-Step forward.

-Get lost.

Step forward.

Silence!

Varikkappara, go check!

Didn't you hear it?

Silence!

♪ Do you hear the voice?

Do you hear the voice? ♪

♪ Is it inviting you? ♪

Arun, look at that.

They have a Tabla too.

It will be awesome.

-Arun Neelakandan, first year ECE.

-Prateek Tiwari, first year CSE.

-Antony.

-Ankur Saxena.

So, you guys are musicians?

Ah, well.

-We try.

-Sort of!

I see you play the guitar as well.

Yeah, a lil'.

Cool, bro.

We should jam sometime.

Why not!

Jam Jam!

-Anto, from Kottayam.

-I'm Lijo, from Kottayam.

Are you both from Kottayam?

Are you from Kottayam?

-Yeah, I'm from Kanjikkuzhi.

-I'm from Lakkattoor.

-Ron.

-Where are you from?

-Abu Dhabi.

-Where? Abu Dhabi?

-Yeah, dude.

-Oh! Nice gold chain!

It will be useful later.

-Arun, right?

-Arun.

-I'm from Palakkad.

-Which one's your room?

-Ours is at that corner.

-But it's the toilet at the corner, right?

You see this?

This lock and grill is to protect you...

from a major part

of the ragging.

So you don't have

to worry that much.

What is he saying?

Dude, this grill will be locked

at 9:30 PM.

So the Malayali seniors cannot come

downstairs and rag us.

Ragging is rampant here, huh?

Yes, mostly among Malayali students.

Our people are like this,

wherever we go!

Don't smile!

Does anyone of you ride a horse?

You do horse-riding?

Err, no.

I'd like to learn, though.

Cool. Join me!

-You do horse-riding?

-No, I'll come walking.

-Okay.

-What's all this?

Organ and music system?

This is not allowed here.

Throw it out!

Come on!

Keep the volume down.

-Who is it? Come here.

-Get lost!

-Are you in first year?

-Yes, sir.

Twins, huh?

Hey! Ask him to

switch on the motor!

Hey Manoharan!

You scoundrel!

-Who called me scoundrel?

-I did, you scoundrel!

-Who called me scoundrel?

-Switch on the motor!

Come, dude!

The first years will be introduced

to the college.

-Didn't you have it in your school?

-No, Kanjikkuzhi doesn't have all this.

Which damn school

did you study in?

We always put our students

as the highest priority

when it comes to academics,

in KCG College of Technology.

We have a great

academic curriculum.

So students, I welcome you all

to this prestigious institution.

This is the main quadrangle.

This side, if you can see,

there's the mechanical laboratory here.

And our IT department

is on that side.

So guys, this is the analog circuit lab.

You know what has to be done here!

There's something very

special about this space.

Can you see that door?

That actually leads to an alley.

That is known as the secret alley.

Hey! What's she saying?

Do you see the door

at that corner?

It's called 'The Secret Alley'.

Annie?

Not 'Annie', it's Alley!

That means, a secret path.

So, on the last day...

When we're in our final year,

on the last day of college,

the Vice-Principal will give us

the key to that alley.

Only on that day can

we see what's inside.

God, I hope I'll be able

to reach final year.

Can't we get a duplicate key

to this alley?

We'll see.

So what's actually

inside the secret alley?

I'll know it at the end

of my college days.

So, till then, let it be a secret.

-Okay.

-Yeah.

-It's gonna be epic.

-It's good to wait for good things.

-Akash Gupta?

-Yes, sir.

-Akhil Sathyan?

-Yes, sir.

Alan George Akkara?

Antony Thadikkaran?

Sir!

-Arun Neelakandan?

-Present, sir.

-Puneet Singh?

-Yes, sir.

Ron Valiveettil?

Sir, it's 'Valiyaveettil'.

Valiveettil. That's right.

Sit down, man!

Why Tamil people are like this?

-Selva Soundarrajan.

-Yes, sir!

Students!

I am very strict about one thing.

No arrears in my class.

-What does 'arrears' mean?

-Supplementary exams!

-Oh! 'Supply'!

-Sir?

-Your name?

-Alan George.

Come in.

So, today we discuss about

engineering mechanics.

The seniors have called all the

Malayali juniors to the hostel.

Welcome to St. Thomas Hall.

There are certain things that

you need to be aware of, while you're here.

There are some rules

that you have to follow.

The first one is...

'Engineer's salute!'

Farooq!

Explain it to them.

Place your left hand

on your forehead.

Cover your groin area

with your right hand,

thrust your backside forward,

and make the sound - 'Phyung'!

Who laughed now?

Which pig laughed now?

Huh?

Laugh!

Laugh again!

Baiju!

Repeat what Farooq said.

Engineer's salute!

Repeat!

'Phyung'!

Good.

Now, on to the next point.

As Indian citizens,

it is the duty of each one of you,

to support local industries.

-Isn't that so?

-Yes.

-Isn't it?

-Yes.

So,

for this entire academic year,

you will only use Indian-made clothes,

and Indian-made undergarments.

Okay?

What underwear are you wearing, kiddo?

Which one was it?

-Jockey.

-Ah!

What about you?

Calvin Klein.

Huh? Calvin Klein?

Hey you!

If you wear a foreign brand ever again,

you'll face a barrage of punches.

Go to some shady shop in Thiruvanmiyur

or Adyar today itself,

and buy shirts, pants and underwear,

that are unfashionable and ill-fitting.

You heard me?

And... one more thing.

The sleeves of your shirts should

be rolled down and buttoned.

And since watches and shoes

are against Indian culture,

you won't use them.

You can use Indian sandals though.

Farooq...

Tell them about the ID card,

as well.

And wherever you see Malayali seniors,

you should salute us,

and show us your ID cards.

Okay, right?

It is okay.

So, Farooq...

Give them their

Indian names, as well.

Give them great nicknames.

-Kanaran!

-Huh?

Damu!

Moosa!

Syedali!

Korah!

Ambadi.

Purushu!

-Ambu!

-Salute!

Phyung!

Repeat!

Phyung!

My Indian name is quite pathetic.

Damu!

What's yours?

Kanaran!

Mine's not so bad then.

Do they get to decide

what clothes we should wear?

This is too much!

-Shall we complain?

-Ah!

Mess with them

as soon as you join!

Dude, this ragging won't last

for the entire year.

It will loosen up

after the first semester.

-Then they will become friends with us.

-Of course!

And in my opinion,

let's listen to those guys for now.

Which college doesn't have ragging now?

Not in Kanjikkuzhy, though.

And when we get to second year,

we can do all this too, right?

That's all!

Cut chart paper to the size

of your college ID,

and stick your photo here.

Your name, Indian name,

name of your course and your underwear.

That's how it should be written.

Also, the name of your underwear,

should be cut out from your underwear

and stapled on to your ID.

The ID should be laminated.

-Hey! A rickshaw is coming.

-Bro!

-Hey Lijo!

-Take us to Karappakkam.

-This cab is too small, man!

-Shut up!

Scoundrel from Abu Dhabi!

Hey!

-Good morning, sir.

-Where's your ID card?

-Where is it?

-Sir...

Here it is, Sir.

-Salute us quickly and get going.

-Fools!

Phyung!

Who's next?

'Don't know' is not a movie!

Hit him!

Come on!

Whom do we catch next?

Yes, this should be fun.

What is the...

chemical name of Potassium,

in Chemistry?

-"P".

-P?

Pee in your mouth, man!

It's 'K', man!

Hit him! Hit him!

Harder! Come on!

How many states in Tamil Nadu?

Tamil Nadu?

How many states?

Fast!

How many states in Tamil Nadu?

-Tell me.

-44.

Forty four?

-Congratulations! Great! Great!

-Thank you.

Give him a prize!

Tamil Nadu itself is a State, you dumbo!

Hit him! Hit him!

Hit him hard!

How many checks in your shirt?

It's not mine.

It's his shirt.

Is he cursing us?

Dude, that bald HOD is coming.

Let's escape.

Dude, those guys have left.

Come on, get up.

Get up.

They have left.

Get up, dude!

I don't know what it is.

There's something about her.

Her eyes,

hair...

Her smile...

I want to know her name!

-I want to find out now.

-Calm down!

We'll ask someone.

It's okay.

I don't want to know her name

by asking someone else.

The fact that I want

to know her name...

She should know that first.

[Singing Kannalane from Bombay]

Such a beautiful voice!

I want to romance a girl like her

and marry her somehow.

I can listen to songs

all the time, right?

Why go for someone like her?

Romance this girl itself

and get married to her!

Come, it's time for the lab session.

Let her be.

She'll be here.

She's good, right?

Yaay!

-Wow!

-Really nice voice.

But we need somebody to back her up.

What about a guitar?

Do we have a guitarist?

There's someone from first year ECE.

Okay.

You talk to him then.

When are we starting

the rehearsals?

We should start practising soon.

You have a beautiful voice.

Thanks.

May I know your name?

I'm Darshana.

Darshana!

I am Arun.

First year, ECE.

Okay.

I'll see you again.

You are so damn confident, man!

Once you like a girl,

you should never shy away.

It's bad enough to not do

anything about it.

Stalking is even worse.

We should approach

them directly.

If she's single,

she'll be thinking about me now.

What if she's committed?

May I know your name?

I'm Darshana.

She's not committed.

Bro, you're gonna perform with Darshana.

For Fresher's day?

Yes, sir.

-I'm performing with Darshana?

-Yes!

-Nishant Bhai, love you!

-Hey! Look! Look!

Focus!

You play the guitar, right?

No, no.

I just carry it around!

And you Mallu guys say

something often, right?

'Poyi Pollikk Mone'

(Go, burn it)

It's not 'Pollikk'.

'Polikk' (Go, kill it)

- Oh! Polikk!

[Singing 'Kannalane' from Bombay]

You can rehearse

during break time.

Go to your class!

I said, go to your class!

You've been putting up quite a show,

ever since you got here.

Haven't we told you to roll down

your sleeves and button them?

Do it!

You considered giving

a complaint against us,

and now you're trying to woo

a girl from first year.

We know everything!

Bloody scoundrel!

If I see you anywhere

near Darshana again,

I'll knock your eyes out!

Got it, you dog?

-Oh no! Keerthy Ma'am!

-What's happening here?

Dude, Keerthy Ma'am is here.

Why are you guys here?

Jackson!

Baiju!

I had warned you

guys several times.

You guys are testing my patience!

If I come to know that

you've ragged any junior,

I will sack you guys

out of this college.

Understood?

Get out!

Let's get going, dude.

Come on!

Let's scram.

This Keerthy Ma'am

is acting so tough!

She doesn't have any respect for boys.

Yeah, right.

Get lost!

When we were being shouted at,

that scoundrel was laughing.

We have to get back

at him, Jackson!

Wait till we find him all alone.

We'll get back at him.

We'll teach him a lesson!

Bro, do you have 100 bucks

on you to recharge my phone?

No, bro.

-Even if I did, I wouldn't give you.

-Miser!

-What?

-Drying unwashed clothes!

Aren't you coming, bro?

I'm not feeling well, dude.

I think I have a fever.

This is out of fear,

because the seniors threatened you.

Get lost.

If I had a Bible as well,

I could give sermons!

-In this outfit?

-This is so pathetic!

Girls are laughing

as soon as they see me.

Pick me up!

They are at least laughing

when they see you, right?

-I don't get even that.

-There goes another guy.

Such a pity!

Are you sure that he's alone

over there?

Yes, I am.

Who told you?

Our spy.

Kick it open!

Hold him!

Baiju, thrash him!

Hit him!

Kick him!

Punch him!

Hit him!

Knock him out!

Stuff something in his mouth!

Punch him hard!

-Hit him!

-Hey!

What the bloody hell

are you guys doing here?

Let go of him, you bloody...

What are you looking at?

If any of you even touch him again,

I swear I'll smash

your skulls so hard,

your bloody brains will fall

out of your mouth!

Now get the hell out of here!

Get out!

Hey Arun!

Are you okay?

They didn't leave the room

because they got scared of Prateek Tiwari.

There's something that any Malayali

who's born and brought up in Kerala,

fears the most,

wherever they go.

Let go of him!

English!

If any of you even touch him again,

I swear I'll smash

your skulls so hard,

your bloody brains will fall

out of your mouth!

Now get the hell out of here!

Get out!

He and his damn English!

He thinks that we don't know English!

I was just listening

to my music, okay?

Then I hear screams

from the other room.

And these guys were beating

him so badly, dude!

Prateek, he was just

talking to Darshana.

And... they were rehearsing together.

-Because he spoke to Darshana?

-Yeah.

How can you just beat somebody up

because he's talking to somebody?

What are you trying to do?

-Nishant Bhai?

-Yeah, Arun.

Do you have sunglasses?

Once your greatest fear in life,

occurs in all its glory,

nothing else matters,

thereafter.

Once we gain that confidence,

then we're awesome!

Frickin' awesome!

You haven't had enough, huh?

Where's your ID card?

Don't want me to salute?

You...!!

They hit him very badly.

When did this happen?

Yesterday.

Come with me.

Where are we going?

Vice-Principal's office.

Okay, let's go.

-Are you sure that he's alone there?

-Yes.

-Who told you?

-Our spy.

Shall we complain?

Bro, you're gonna perform

with Darshana.

I'm performing with Darshana?

We don't encourage

ragging in this campus.

Okay.

And if the seniors

have done this,

strict action will be taken

against them.

Thank you, sir.

Are you afraid of them?

I'm not afraid of anyone!

Come!

-We must beat him up!

-We will!

Let's make this

more interesting.

You go ahead.

I'll follow you.

Has anyone dared to mess with us

in the past three years?

When I asked for the ID card, he...

I'm telling you!

We'll teach him a lesson!

She walked along with me,

showing her middle finger...

to the seniors

who beat me to pulp.

I had my arms around her.

In that moment,

I felt like a king.

Smack him!

Punch him hard!

Why are you laughing?

Why are you laughing?

Hit me with everything you've got, bro!

I don't give a damn!

You know why?

'coz Darshana is mine!

And there's nothing you can

do to change that, you sucker!

Hey! The juniors are coming!

Can I have your number?

No!

Wait! Wait! Wait!

Darshana, we will be here

for four years.

Four academic years.

Around 800 days in total,

not counting the holidays.

Out of that, twenty days

have already passed.

I don't want to regret

not having told you earlier.

So I'm coming

straight to the point.

I'm crazy about you!

I fell in love with you

the minute I saw you.

I'd like to know

what you feel about me.

Arun, I....

I need to think about it.

Go ahead!

But don't take too much time.

Please!

Darshana!

Please don't tie your hair up.

Just try leaving it loose.

You look amazing when

you leave your hair loose.

Are you going to tell him today?

Maybe!

And you're coming to college

like this, you dumbo?

You do one thing.

Go to our room.

Over there, on top

of the record book,

you can find my compact

and foundation.

There are some earrings

in a small box.

Take whatever you like.

Then, there's a pink colour box.

Once you open it,

you'll find a tiny little thing inside.

A Malayali guy who won't fall for that,

is yet to be born on this Earth.

Darshana, sorry, sorry, sorry!

I went overboard, I know.

-Please! Sorry.

-Can you ride a bike?

[indistinct chatter]

It makes a lot of sound, right bro?

Yes, it does.

But that sound strikes straight into the heart

of the girl who's sitting behind.

Guys who can ride,

know these things.

It's your first outing, right?

Yeah.

Make it memorable!

Yeah!

See...

So, the security sleeps

at 12 o'clock, okay?

So you can come

through the main gate.

Be very quiet.

Okay.

The main gate's key.

Sis', you're too good!

Fifty Rupees!

Hail the Almighty!

Climb up!

Phew!

Get down!

Arun...

Ever since you proposed to me,

every day when you come to the college,

everytime you pass

through the veranda,

everytime you look at me

from St. Thomas Hall,

I've felt like shouting out loud...

that I really like you!

But there's this thrill

in making you wait...

What I have to tell you now..

is something you've already told me.

I fell in love with you

the moment I saw you.

♪ Your fragrance everywhere, all the time ♪

♪ Your fragrance everywhere, all the time ♪

G... Good night.

One minute!

Okay, go!

Come on! Come quickly!

-Sis'!

-Phew!

Get down!

Get going!

Yaay!

-All this is because of Darshana!

-Darshana?

Get lost!

Arun!

Arun, come here!

Look over there!

Yes, it worked!

Go! Get going!

-Where is he going?

-He'll be right back.

I love you!

Say it again?

I love you!

Shall I kiss you?

My friends are watching

from up there.

Oh no!

And your mouth is stinking too!

Go and get ready.

See you in college.

-Aren't you going to your hometown today?

-Yes.

Can you come to Kochi with me?

What's the matter?

There's a girl who I used to chat with,

on Yahoo Messenger.

She was very co-operative, online.

What happened then?

My computer was struck by lightning

during the monsoon.

By the time I got it repaired

and came back online to chat,

she fell for someone else.

But now,

she has come back

with a vengeance, bro!

I want to celebrate

her comeback!

And you want me to come along,

for this ribaldry?

Huh?

In my life so far,

nothing has happened!

Nothing at all!

Can you come with me?

I will.

Bro!

We'll have a blast in Kochi!

What is this?

Crushed pickle?

-'Morning Sir.

-Hi.

Thanks.

Sir, that's a finger bowl.

I know!

It doesn't have sugar.

It's for washing your hands.

But it's good water.

We can drink it.

Aren't you done yet?

I mean, are you done?

What do you think?

Are they serious?

Didn't you ask your friend?

No. She asked me to come

and I tagged along.

Your campus life must be awesome

in Chennai, right?

Hostel, full freedom...

When I see students going

back home on the bus,

I feel slightly jealous.

Home-cooked food, parents...

I miss all that.

My parents are divorced.

I'm sorry.

Don't be!

They were always at loggerheads.

So, isn't it better

to get separated?

I like your hair colour.

I like your eyes.

Do you have a girlfriend?

No!

That side is fully occupied.

Let's sit over there.

One second.

I'll be right back.

How much does this umbrella cost?

250 Rupees.

Run! Run!

Those scoundrels are here!

-Damn! I should've just worn pants!

-Don't run away, dear!

-Get lost, you dog!

-I came all the way from Madras for this!

Wait! Let's go to some isolated place.

Wait, please!

Chicken Lasagunia!

Beef stick!

Lime juice without sugar!

And the bus tickets, to and fro.

I am such a colossal disaster, Oh God!

Shucks!

I cheated on Darshana.

Aargh!

Don't keep repeating yourself!

You didn't even touch that girl.

I couldn't touch my girl either.

Yet, I chose to forget

her for a while,

and had other

thoughts in mind, right?

Look at me!

Who doesn't have such thoughts?

Even Mahatma Gandhi

has had such thoughts!

Read his autobiography

if you have a doubt.

And... don't go and blabber

anything to her, out of guilt.

Listen, you haven't done anything to her.

Let's just...

forget this day!

Bloody Chicken Lasaguniya!

-Lasagna!

-I know! Don't rub it in!

I felt sad watching

the news yesterday.

Can't anyone in Kerala be in love?

Those were not family

members or relatives.

Some random people

were beating up those kids.

They took an umbrella from a boy

and hit him on his head.

One boy wearing a T-shirt like yours,

was running for his life.

Okay, I'll message you

once the lab session is over.

Let's bunk class

and go for a movie.

Darshana!

Yes?

I have to tell you something.

I don't know how

you're going to take it.

Arun!

I got here on time, thanks to this umbrella

I found in your room!

Darshana!

Darshana, wait!

-Let go of me.

-Darshana, please!

-Darshana, listen to me!

-Let go!

Darshana, I haven't

done anything wrong!

When Antony said he wanted

to meet a girl, I went along.

I sat on that bench

with her friend.

When she asked me if I had a girlfriend,

I said no.

I haven't done anything wrong.

Why did you say that

you don't have a girlfriend?

Well, when such a hot chick

is in front of me..

Shucks!

What the hell did you tell her, dude?

Shucks!

Hello, Megha?

Don't call on my friend's phone, okay?

Darshana, please listen to me.

There's nothing between us any more.

Forever!

Just listen to me, Darshana.

Please!

I'm really sorry.

But don't think that

I will spare you!

I'll romance another guy and walk around

hugging him, right before you.

You wanted to kiss me, right?

I'll kiss him a hundred times,

right in front of your eyes.

With that umbrella in your hand,

you can stand and watch,

you bloody pervert!

Will you do that?

Will you do that?

Then listen to this, as well.

After running away from there,

Antony and I checked in

at Hotel Kochi Courtyard with those girls.

He was in 202...

and I was in 203.

It was awesome!

Go and say this to all

the girls in your hostel!

That's not necessary.

All of them are listening.

You're on loudspeaker, you moron!

Aargh!!

Yet again, I've become a colossal disaster

for no reason at all, dear God!

Sandeep!

-Hey Arun!

-Are you happy now?

-Let go of him!

-She broke up with me!

That umbrella! Didn't you

do it deliberately, you dog?

-Let go of him!

-Move away!

I know, you dog!

You snitched on me to the seniors

and ruined my life, you piece of shit!

-I will kill you.

-Wait. Calm down!!

What do you even know?

He told the seniors everything that

happened here, because they beat him up.

He didn't give that umbrella

to you, on purpose!

-Let go of him!

-Move aside!

Who is he to beat me up!

There's nothing between us any more.

Forever!

-Hello, Arun?

-Maya!

-Where are you?

-I came to the hostel...

-to get some books.

-You love me, right?

Of course, I do!

I'm waiting for you.

Come quickly.

Arun!

Maya!

Let's go out tonight.

-Where?

-My friend has an apartment.

No one's there now.

We'll stay there tonight.

Tell your family that you're staying

over at your friend's place.

Err... How do I, Arun?

You don't want to stay with me?

Is it?

Maya!

Come, let's go.

What?

You wooed her so quickly?

She's an easy catch.

-Do you want it?

-It looks like dosa.

Did you brush your teeth?

How's the sambar?

What is this?

Dosa or rubber sheet?

This is so stale!

This food is so terrible!

-How many times do we tell them?

-Come on, guys!

-Shall I finish this and come?

-Come on!

Hey Varikkappara!

We won't eat this

terrible food any more.

Eat only if you want to,

or else, get lost!

Aren't we paying

you for the food?

What the hell have you done?

Will your dad come

and clean this?

How dare you swear at my dad?

Dear Lord, a fight!!

Come on, try swearing

at my father again!

Hey! Let go of me!

Didn't I say sorry?

I'm sorry!

Let go of me!

Manoharan Nari [Scoundrel].

Who did this?

-Get lost, you loser.

-Get lost!

Hey!

Did you do this?

Who did this?

-Who did it?

-I don't know, brother.

But whoever did it

is spot on!

Hey!

I'm quitting soon, man.

I hate engineering.

-Bloody hell!

-Good! Become a singer and save yourself!

Dude, pay the money.

I'll pay you later.

You'll use my toothbrush

and wear my underwear too, huh?

Like I do, in your case?

-Hey! Where are you going?

-Move away!

-You can't go out after 5 PM.

-Go tell the juniors that!

-Hey!

-Get lost!

No one respects me here.

So, when are you moving out?

I need to convince my parents.

I'm fed up of staying

in the hostel.

An apartment is almost ready.

I have to shift

quickly, if possible.

That's nice.

We'll get to spend some

alone time together.

Hi sir.

-Yeah.

-Hi, Ma'am.

One sec.

Could you excuse me?

Right.

What happened?

Darshana, what I mean...

Hello?

You messed with

the wrong guy, darling.

You shouldn't have slapped me.

Just wait for the stories that are going

to spread about you in campus,

from tomorrow.

You slept with me!

You got pregnant with me!

No guy will see you as a girl any more.

They'll look at you like a slut!

Not on the face, please!

What?

Oh my God!

-Serves him right!

-Shruthi!

Shruthi!

George, Kedar is not here.

-I think he has left.

-Stop it, dude!

What are you trying to prove?

I know what to do

with people who hurt me.

I don't need help from anybody!

And not even for a moment should you

think that you're any better than him!

Can't you see that

two people are talking?

And you're grinning

in between that?

Come.

What?

Do you want to hit me?

No, bro.

I've come to take him.

This is the fourth time you're getting

beaten up this month. Aren't you fed up?

Shut up!

Reverse! Reverse! Reverse!

-Brother, go to the hospital quickly.

-Okay.

My father is really sick.

I've been thinking about

going to my home town.

What about the exams?

I am feeling really stressed

staying here.

Go and come back soon.

Have you ordered any food, bro?

-Woah!

-Oh my God!

Shut up!

Oh my darling!

Losers!

Where does he get

these girls from?

-Oh my God!

-Learn from him!

Don't destroy our image as well.

Keep quiet!

-I can't bear this, you dog.

-It's alright. Just chill.

-Who cleaned all this?

-Hey!

Get the snacks. Joji, the opener

must be somewhere over there.

-Bring it.

-I'll open it with my mouth.

It's so hot.

-I can't find it here.

-Bring it quickly, dude.

Bro, can you give me

that girl's number?

Hi sir.

Arun, pay for it.

I'll pay you later.

I don't have money.

Sorry, sir.

I can't take it back.

You can't?

-No, sir.

-Then you shove it up!

What is this?

Didn't I say that I'll return the money?

When have you ever

returned the money?

You come here only to drink

and sleep with girls, right?

Why are you talking like this,

you scoundrel?

There's a limit to how much

a person can tolerate.

Is this even a house?

Is there even an inch

of clean space here?

Whenever I walk in, this place

reeks of vomit and urine.

I even throw your condoms

into the garbage.

Hey Arun!

Don't go overboard.

Here you are!

Change your name from Lijo

to 'Anto's lackey'.

Why do you alone have

such an issue with me, you prick?

No one else has any issue.

That's right.

I'm the only one

who has an issue.

None of you have any issue!

Right?

Arun, come on.

Let's arrive at a compromise.

You know, right?

It's Anto! It's our Anto!

Come on.

Let's arrive at a compromise.

Compromise?

You go compromise.

You guys can rot inside this filth

for the next two years and die!

Hey!

Come in!

Dude...

-Just for tonight.

-What's this, man?

Come inside.

Mom, this is Arun!

Hello!

The food will be ready now.

-Akku..

-You can go and freshen up, son.

-Show him the room.

-What is this? Why are you like this?

Come, go and get freshened up.

We'll have dinner after that, okay?

-Sir?

-Over?

No, sir.

Additional sheet, please.

Thank you.

It's been two days

since he came here.

He hasn't spoken to me at all.

I told you, right?

Didn't you notice his face and his body?

I have a strong feeling

that he has been drinking.

Please talk to him.

I'm well aware...

of how I lived my life,

when I was your age.

That's why I don't advise you,

though your mother

keeps compelling me to.

I know that you're away from us.

But...

don't think

that you are alone.

For anything and everything,

your father is here for you.

Understood?

You should quit alcohol.

Dad...

I don't really...

drink.

What hurts me more than

you drinking alcohol,

is the fact that

you're lying to me.

Will you quit?

If you won't feel embarrassed,

can I give you a hug?

What is this, son?

So, just like the last time,

-Puneet Singh is first.

-Thank you, Ma'am.

Selva Soundarrajan is second.

-Good job, Selva.

-Thank you, Ma'am.

-Akhil Sathyan is third.

-Thank you, Ma'am.

-Lokesh is fourth.

-Thanks, Ma'am.

-And Dhruv is fifth.

-Thank you, Ma'am.

Congratulations, guys.

Most of you have improved,

except for the Malayali students.

Arun has cleared one paper.

Rest, all of you are washed out.

Can't you join some other course?

Wasting so many

seats unnecessarily!

Arun!

Bye!

-Awesome job, bro!

-How, bro?

There's nothing like that, bro.

Hey!

Our classmate, Selva?

He's running a combined study group.

Shall we ask him if we can also join?

He has no airs about himself.

We'll ask him, huh?

Yes.

Combined study it is, then.

Hey! Over there.

Hey Selva!

-Selva!

-Yes!

Hey! What are you guys doing here?

Selva!

Will you let us join your

combined study group?

Oh! You may join!

Hold this.

-Usha Akka! I've kept the water here.

-Selva, the milk packet!

-They kept it here?

-It's leaking!

Come on.

-Hey! Keep it there.

-Here?

There's no water here.

This has been a never ending

problem in our city, for many years.

Come, dude!

This is our area!

-Maari Anna!

-Yes!

Pay your electricity

bill today itself.

They will disconnect

it otherwise.

-Okay, Selva.

Hey!

Careful, guys!

Lachu Paatti (grandma)!

Five minutes!

-Sambar Saadham is getting ready.

- Okay!

Hey Arun!

Come, dude!

What is this?

A bandit's hideout?

Come on!

-Hey! Give me your hand!

-Selva!

This is our place!

Anyone can come here...

and learn!

75% of the people here...

are not from

well-to-do families.

They were sidelined

because they were poor.

But wait and watch!

Ten years from now,

each student in this group

will be going places!

Don't look at it as just

another combined study group.

This is a student movement.

To change our destiny,

we initiated this

silent revolution.

Shucks!

x-u=t

dx=dt

x=t+u

-Yaay!

-Yes!

-Raja!

-Selva!

His name is Raja.

He's from Pannaipuram.

He creates amazing music.

You have arrears in the

fourth semester, right?

Yes.

Third semester?

Yes.

Second?

We have arrears

in every semester, Selva.

Don't hurt our feelings

talking about all that.

So, let's start with Maths and Physics.

If you understand

Maths and Physics,

it's like you've understood

the whole world.

Here you go.

Kaali!

-First semester, Maths.

-We've just started. Come on!

Bro!

Awesome!

Arun, you've cleared 18

back papers in one stretch?

Yes, Ma'am.

Wow!

Superb, bro!

That's awesome.

Congratulations!

And you too, Antony!

You also have cleared

a lot of papers.

Me?

Good going!

I'm too good, bro!

Arun!

When are you giving us a treat?

We have class only

till noon today, right?

Let's go to Hotel Crescent

and have Mutton Biriyani.

-Can I call our boys?

-Call everyone!

Super!

By the way, bro...

After that, can you come

with me to meet Selvi?

I have...

bought a saree for her.

Huh? You're already

buying her sarees and all?

Hey! Don't yell bro!

I hope the people there

don't pummel you!

Shut up!

-What is it?

-Forget it.

Hey!

Please stop at an ATM

counter on the way.

Do you even have to say?

We're going to make you splurge!

Calm down!

Please calm down!

Don't go forward.

You cannot go forward.

There has been a small accident.

What accident, sir?

I'll tell you later.

Move back now.

-Go back, please.

-What happened, sir?

The bus ran over

a third year student!

-Hey!

-What?

Selva!!!

Selva!

Selva!

Selva!

Move away!

Make way!

I found this in Selva's bag.

The saree he bought for Tamizhselvi.

Arun...

His house is near Arakkonam.

Since it's outside the city,

I don't think many students

would come there.

Shouldn't we go and see him?

I can't see him like that!

Don't come if you don't want to.

I will go!

I won't let him burn to ashes

without anyone by his side.

I will go!

Amma, how do we go

to the cremation ground?

-Go straight.

-Straight?

Selva!

Where have you gone,

leaving us behind?

Selva!

Selva!

Look at our Selva.

Whom do we have now?

Selva's parents.

What's your dream, Selva?

I dream of the day my parents

can sleep without a worry.

What more can I ask for?

We shouldn't cry, brother.

It's just his body that's

being consumed by the fire.

Just his body.

Is he just that?

Is that all there is to Selva?

He is hiding.

He is here, somewhere.

Selva as my own son.

and earning well.

in cooking for my children?

I have to go.

Shall I leave?

-Okay.

-You go home and freshen up.

I'll go later.

I couldn't do anything

Maya needs me now.

Yeah, I can understand.

Okay.

Tell me if there's anything.

Call me.

Shall I get you something to eat?

I don't want anything.

Mom has fallen asleep.

You can leave now, Arun.

Okay.

Bye.

Hey! Hey! Hey!

What happened?

Papa...

He was wearing this shirt

even this morning.

We have no one now, Arun.

If I ask you something,

will you say the truth?

Have you ever...

loved me the way you

loved Darshana?

That was a night which made me

feel extremely lonely and guilty.

Someone who was always around,

but someone whom I'd never spoken to...

On that night, I noticed

a cycle tea-seller.

I felt like talking to him.

How many years has it been

since you came to Chennai?

I came here when this city

was called Madras.

When I came here,

none of this was here.

Did you come here

in search of a job?

Cinema!

Acting?

In the '80s,

I had produced around

seven to eight Malayalam films.

What's your name?

A heavy downpour happened

and ceased over the same night.

Semester exams began, soon after.

None of us realized how

another year went by.

Campus placements,

preparations for higher studies...

In the meanwhile, I patched up

with my Malayali friends.

I'm asking this because we've royally

flunked all our exams.

Shall we join

your combined study group?

Why not! You should all come.

We'll see.

That's great.

-How much?

-200 Rupees.

Two Hundred...

Hey Arun!

I'll pay!

Let's split it.

All the top students in my class...

were targeting foreign

universities and studying accordingly.

Darshana, Kaali and I...

got jobs in

campus placements.

The ones who clear a lot

of back papers at one go,

will be adept at meeting deadlines.

Due to this finding by the HR department,

even our Malayali group could

secure jobs at good companies.

-Yaay!

-Maya!

During the last semester,

I could see an extremely happy Maya

laughing out loud.

Joe!

I'm really sorry, Joe.

It's okay, sir.

You don't have to call me Sir.

Call me Arun.

Okay, Arun.

Arun...

Can I ask you something?

Maya...

Why did she break up with you?

She deserved someone better.

That day, finally,

I got a load of guilt off my chest.

Then, finally came...

the last day in KC Tech.

The last day of college.

It was beautiful!

We all felt really close

to each other.

All of us were together.

Except Kaali.

Selva!

Selva!

Which train are you taking?

Mangalore Mail.

I will come.

Guys, guys!

I got the key to the secret alley!

-Woah!

-Secret alley?

All of us ran towards

the secret alley,

which our senior

Jasleen had shown us,

in the first year of college.

Dude, it's totally dark out here.

Hey Puneet, pull the lever!

-Someone turn on the switch.

Okay!

Isn't it time for the ceremony?

Where's your sister?

She'll be here now.

Let me just...

Darshana!

Why are you late?

Hi!

[Traditional folk song]

I keep watching your videos.

Food vlogging.

Nice!

It's gaining popularity.

Our subscriber base

has been growing.

You must be making a lot of money

from YouTube, right?

It barely covers my fuel bills.

Slog like a slave, get paid peanuts,

feel like a queen.

That's my present situation.

It's a new venture, right?

It will take some time

to convert to cash.

But there's one thing.

I feel really peaceful.

That feeling...

I have no idea how

to achieve that.

I don't have any

particular passion either.

I don't know what to do.

You do one thing.

-Quit your job.

-And?

Wander around like you?

Wander around for a bit.

Then, find what you really like.

And get into that.

Money will follow.

What if it doesn't?

You will starve!

My grandmother used to say...

"When we're really hungry,

we'll find ways

to feed ourselves"

And where's your grandma now?

She's dead!

But she had a point.

Are you a photographer?

I click photos, yeah.

How's this camera?

-It's okay for me.

-Is it?

-Can I have a look?

-Err...

Oh!

Woah!

-This is beautiful.

-Thank you.

-What's your name?

-Arun.

I am Jimmy.

I'm a wedding photographer.

What about you?

I was with Infomax,

but now I'm not working.

-So you're not working currently?

-Nope.

Not working currently!

Do you believe in destiny?

-I don't know much about all that.

-Ah! It's good that you don't.

You'll go crazy!

You know how it is for me?

If I wish for something,

it will be brought right before me.

-By whom?

-God!

I was just thinking

of quitting my job,

starting my own wedding

photography company

and hiring a good photographer.

And here you are!

Don't think any further.

Let's collaborate!

-Well, I..

-Why? You don't want to collaborate?

I didn't mean that.

-I'm not a professional.

-That's not a problem.

And, we just met, right?

Yeah! We should have met

much earlier.

We got late.

I felt so too.

I have great contacts.

I'm serious.

We can cover at least four

or five weddings in a month.

I'll pay you Rs. 20,000

for each wedding.

What say?

-How much?

-Err... 20,000 Rupees.

Okay!

Twenty five!

Fine! 30,000.

Don't ask for more than that. Please!

I need to think about it.

Go ahead.

I'll be right here.

-Sir, ticket?

-I didn't buy it?

No.

I forgot!

I keep forgetting

things wherever I go.

You rascal! Even you managed

to get married?

Here!

Look over here!

-Hey!

-Move away!

Smile, please!

Who's that?

-Hey Sathish!

-Move away, you!

Don't crowd around.

Please move!

-Over here!

-Excuse me!

Smile, damn it!

Come on, stand here, you hag!

Get lost!

The feast is ready

at the dining hall.

After getting photos clicked,

all of you may proceed

to the dining hall.

Smile!

Smile!

And they shall become one.

Even if he is starving,

he should feed her.

Even if he is starving...

Feed, feed!

-Please! Just one!

-Get lost!

-Phew!

-Oops!

Careful!

Hey!

What is this?

What kind of photos are these?

You've covered the groom's family

really well.

-We're the ones paying you, right?

-There's still more to pay.

-I'm the bride's mother, right?

-Yeah!

Have you clicked a single photo

of me smiling?

No.

What kind of photographer are you?

-What's your name?

-Jimmy!

Nice name!

Take this with you!

-But I..

-Just get lost!

What?

They think they can say anything

if they are paying us!

But they want

everything to be done!

It's a grand wedding, right?

Candid photography,

traditional photography...

Traditional with candid photography...

Helicam, Jimmy Jib and what not!

Where do I take all this?

To that town hall!

And that place has no AC or fridge!

I mean... no fans!

And there are those

saree-clad aunties,

sweating like they just took a steam bath.

Didn't that hag say that

there's no smiling photo of hers?

To make people smile when they don't,

have I learned morphing?

-Jimmy bro!

-What?

Come here.

What do you think

about these photos?

They are really nice.

They were clicked in Chennai

by a photographer named Danny

for a company called

'Weddings by Alpheus'.

This company doesn't

cover grand weddings.

They cover only small weddings

of people who are educated,

wise and mature enough.

With just immediate family members

and close friends in attendance,

Intimate weddings!

There's no brand which specializes

exclusively in intimate weddings,

currently in Kerala.

Why don't we start one?

Why not?

Let's start it today itself.

So that we can sit at home

from tomorrow.

Dude, what do you think?

You think weddings are conducted

in Kerala to get two people married?

A wedding here is a huge

celebratory event,

where people invite relatives,

friends and acquaintances...

... to show off their pomp and grandeur.

Take your intimate concept to

them and watch how they react!

-Sheesh!

-Jimmy bro!

Many people are reconsidering

the idea of having grand weddings.

Most Hindi actors are getting

married like this now.

Even our actor Prithviraj

got married like this!

Oh yeah!

Rajuettan is awesome!

If we target Kerala alone,

we'll be in a fix.

We should market our company

all over India.

If we start this now,

when intimate weddings

start trending in Kerala,

we will be the kings here!

Everyone is running

after grand weddings now.

Should we run along with them,

or ahead of them?

Think about it!

♪ Enough is enough

♪ You inhabit my heart ♪

-Is this his new song?

-Yes.

♪ What is the use of running away? ♪

♪ You keep pulling me towards you

Just like your idea!

♪ You keep pulling me towards you

Using your magic ♪

How will we market

ourselves all over India?

-We needn't do anything.

-Then?

You see this guy?

Shall we make him do it?

-Prateek Tiwari?

-Yes.

Dude, he's a top singer in Bollywood.

He charges millions for an ad.

Don't you know all this?

-We needn't pay him in millions.

-How much, then?

Is 10,000 fine?

♪ Enough is enough

Speak to me with a smile ♪

Hey guys!

I'm in Mumbai.

And we're performing

here tonight.

So, please do come, see us.

Okay?

I have something to share

with you guys.

I have a friend, Arun Neelakandan.

And he's one of the best photographers

that I know personally.

Dude, he's hyping you up!

Now he's starting his own

wedding photography brand...

...called Blue Eye

Intimate Weddings.

Ours?

So, the first couple to book

their wedding with this brand,

I will sing at their wedding,

for free!

Did he say that he'll sing for free,

at our first wedding?

Did he just say free?

Are you sure?

-Prateek, I love you man!

-I love you too, dude!

Who is he?

He is my friend!

Friend?

Sure, sir.

Sure, sir.

We can do all that.

With that single video

from Prateek Tiwari...

we received around 20 wedding

enquiries in two days.

The most surprising fact was that

many of them were from Kerala.

If we get all this advance money,

we'll rock it!

Your idea is fantastic, man!

blueye10

Why is your email ID like this?

It's been like that since 10th grade.

My dad is my hero.

So I just modified my

dad's name a little bit.

Neelakandan.

Neela (blue) kan (eye) ten.

So creative!

Don't pull my leg, Jimmy bro!

What's your family name?

Is it Mangalassery?

-No!

-No?

-Not at all?

-No!

As I started covering weddings

of my choice,

I began enjoying wedding

photography thoroughly.

Framing, lighting,

composition, technique...

None of this mattered.

I gradually learnt that capturing

the hearts of the people before you,

is what photography is all about.

I started anticipating.

Happiness!

Sorrow!

Tears!

Celebrations!

Romp!

I was loving what I was doing.

The greatest attraction

of wedding photography...

is the freedom that we get.

We can keep clicking photos of all

the girls attending the wedding,

with no restrictions.

When we go for certain weddings,

we feel that the bride

is nothing...

in front of her cousins, friends

or bridesmaids. So many girls!

Sigh!

O' dear God!

And at one such wedding,

I saw her for the first time.

She wasn't like the other girls

whom I'd forget immediately

after clicking them.

-Nithya!

-Her face...

Nithya!

It pierced right into my heart.

Many years after Darshana,

I couldn't take my eyes off a girl.

Nithya.

[Nagumo a Carnatic composition

by Shri Tyagaraja]

-Come, sis'.

-I'll come later.

-Come on!

-I'll come later.

Come on!

Fine, don't come!

So much attitude!

I can send the photos on WhatsApp

if you want them.

Aww! Nice try to get my number!

Mail them to me.

If you won't mind,

may I say something?

Okay.

I didn't like even a single photo

of yours that I clicked.

You're very beautiful!

Your eyes,

your face,

your smile.

I haven't been able to capture

any of these correctly.

-Mail ID?

-Huh?

Your... email ID?

Yeah.

It was lovely meeting you, Nithya.

I'm Arun.

What's happening, man?

Jimmy bro!

Did you see that girl?

Yeah, yeah!

I'm seeing everything.

I'm going to marry her.

Yeah, right!

Have you seen her?

A girl like her!

Do you think boys... that too, the

boys of Kochi, would forsake her?

Do you really think so?

She must be committed.

I am sure!

She's not committed.

[Nagumo continues]

Hey!

Nithya has e-mailed us.

She showed the photos

we sent to her family.

Everyone liked it.

She has asked us if we can cover her

cousin sister's wedding in Chennai.

Don't miss this work.

This is the best chance

for you to hit on her.

Kedar Kamalesh?

What's wrong?

We should meet Nithya, in person.

I can't believe it!

He seemed like such a nice person.

I didn't know that

he's this kind of a guy.

All this happened

when I was in college.

Maybe, he's a changed man now.

Ask your family to enquire

about him, once again.

It's your cousin's life, after all!

-What are you saying?

-What about lights?

Lights should be all over the place.

I'm thinking, Udaipur.

-That's nice.

-Perfect!

The palace in Udaipur?

I want to get married where

Priya Dongre got married.

I want that too!

And special suites

for my friends.

-That's a given!

-Hello sir.

-Hello!

-Hi.

Thank you.

Shall I go to the loo and come?

-Yeah.

-Okay.

[humming a Tamil film song]

What do you want?

Aishu, where are you now?

I am with Kedar.

Didn't I tell you about him?

Then why...

Listen!

Hey! This is my life!

Don't interfere in my life like this.

And I trust him!

Bye!

Where's my phone?

Where is it?

Phone!

Aishu, baby, just let me explain!

-I was...

-You son of a...

-You and your damn..

-Aishu!

Hey dude!

Thank you!

Bloody wretch!

Yeah, baby?

-I'll call you back, no?

-Sir!

You've been slapped at the same

place, many years ago, right?

Get lost!

He keeps coming

here to get slapped.

-Is that so?

-Baby! Aishu!

He stays at an apartment in Kakkanad,

along with a photographer

named Jimmy.

Varun, right?

Do you have any acquaintance

by that name here?

I need to get acquainted.

I need to get

acquainted in a way

that he can't get up

and walk hereafter.

Bro, there are CCTV cameras here.

Wear your hoodie.

Bro, it must have captured

our license plate, right?

CCTV cameras of Kochi, right?

They won't capture anything.

Come on!

Will this be over before 6 PM?

I need to make an offering

at my family temple then.

Five minutes!

We'll beat him to pulp!

Six!

Seven!

Ah! Nice!

-Who is Varun? Call him!

-Varun?

Where is he? Call him!

Come out, you!

Oh!

-Are you an idiot or what?

-Hit him!

Ask him to come forward.

-Hey! Come on!

-Should we come there?

What's happening here?

-What are you looking at?

Why have they come here?

-Come on!

-Who are these guys?

-Come on, if you dare!

He has tied a towel around his waist.

Is he going to hit us now?

Kedar, hit him!

Kedar, don't keep gaping

like you've swallowed a pole.

Thrash him!

WHAT?

WHY?

WHO ARE YOU?

Why is he just gaping?

-Bloody dog!

-Kedar!

Just a second.

-Hey Kedar!

-Hey Kedar!

Hey! Where are you going?

Dude, he's not Varun.

He's Arun!

Why do we care?

Shouldn't we hit him?

No!

I've known him

for a long time!

I don't like him one bit!

This bloody thing

is also not working!

Stairs!

Where's the stairs?

What a buffoon!

Shall I go to the temple then?

What happened over here now?

Did you understand anything?

No.

Hey Kaali!

Tell me, bro!

A small matter.

What? Matter?

Sheesh!

It's not that matter.

You have to cover a wedding.

There's not much of a budget,

but the client is someone you know.

But you can come alone.

That's enough.

I'll discuss this with my partner

and let you know.

Okay.

Let me know.

Who's the client?

The client....

Let it be a surprise!

Okay?

Thank you so much, Arun.

You saved Aishu's life.

If you won't mind,

may I ask you something?

What?

Do you like parotta and beef?

Huh?

Yeah!

I'm going to a place which serves

awesome parotta, tonight.

Do you want to come along?

Okay.

[Nagumo resumes]

This doesn't seem like

the usual parotta.

This is called Bun Parotta.

Madurai style!

When are you going to Chennai?

Tomorrow evening.

-By train?

-Yes.

Shall I come with you?

I'm travelling in a second

class compartment.

Should I upgrade to an AC coach?

Nah!

The windows can't be opened.

Can't feel the wind either.

Second class is fine!

Sure!

A bit more windy

than you expected, right?

Good morning!

Good morning!

Hi kiddo!

-Hey!

-Bro!

-How are you?

-Hi.

-Who is this, bro?

-My friend.

-Your friend? Hello.

-Hi.

-Come on.

-Now tell me.

-Who's the client?

-The client?

You've come so far.

Now see for yourself.

It's my daughter's wedding.

We'll make it grand!

Please come.

-Hi. Vijay.

Arun.

Grandma has told me

Okay. Please carry on.

I'll see you later.

Wait.

I'll bring coffee for you.

Grandma!

Can I get some Sambar Saadham?

Wait, I'll bring it.

The two of you should always

stay together and be happy.

Grandma, we're just friends.

Oh! Friends, huh?

Seems like the two of you

are best friends?

No.

I swear, we're just friends, Grandma.

Are you that crazy about him?

He's a sweetheart, sis'.

You had a boyfriend

in college, right?

What was his name?

Tin? Aluminium?

Tinson!

-Is this guy like him?

-No! He's not like that loser!

Back then, he had

his eyes on me.

That's just your imagination.

Okay, agreed.

He had his eyes on you.

Now, please talk to Papa

and Mumma about this.

Let me see.

Thank you!

Wedding photographer?

No way!

Why not?

She is an engineer working

at a software company.

He's also like that.

When he got bored,

he quit that and started this.

What does he earn by doing this?

He earns much more than

what you earn in a month, Papa.

-Sis'!

-Through wedding photography?

But it won't work out.

There are a thousand

still photographers,

walking around with cameras.

It's an extremely competitive field.

If he goes jobless tomorrow,

who will take care of her?

Why should he take care of me?

I can take care of myself.

And if he's jobless,

I'll take care of him, as well.

What?

Do you think I can't, Papa?

My dear, you don't know

how men are!

They are really complicated!

If they lose their jobs,

or if the wife earns

more than the husband,

they will have all sorts of complexes.

It will create huge problems

in your family life.

-Papa, he's not like you.

-He's not?

Today's boys are not as problematic

as the men from your generation.

Now you don't join them

and make them like you.

Papa...

If you say no,

I won't marry him.

But some other clever girl

will definitely snatch him away.

If that happens,

I will never forgive you, Papa.

In case he develops a complex,

and it becomes an issue

like you mentioned,

I won't wait even for a second.

I'll get divorced and come

back to you immediately.

You spoiled brat!

What is this?

Pampered her, didn't you?

Deal with it!

Papa!

Eventually I'm going to get married.

Might as well marry

someone I love.

Please agree, Papa.

Please!

-Please?

-Please agree, Papa!

Agree, Papa!

-Please agree.

-Do whatever you want!

Say it happily!

Do whatever you want!

A little more!

More happiness, Papa!

Come on!

Marry whoever you want!

Awww! Thank you!

Thank you, Papa!

-Huh?

-Oh no!

Arun!

-My friend Arun is getting married.

-God bless him.

Same to you!

-Hello?

-Hey!

All set, huh?

Congratulations!

I'm doing something

What happened, Darshana?

He is getting married, Antony!

When he was in other relationships,

I never felt anything.

But...

Now he'll be gone!

He'll just go, forever!

I can't bear it, Antony!

Only those who wish him well

should be present at his wedding.

I'm leaving.

Hey! Wait!

He should never know

Arun! I love you, man!

Where's the bar, bro?

I want to drink like a fish!

Shut up, you nincompoop!

Arun, bye!

Bye, Antony!

Hey! Where did Darshana go?

There was a death in her family.

She had to leave quickly.

Don't call her now.

I mean...

She is okay.

It's past 12 AM.

Don't you want to sleep?

Get some sleep, man! You might

the indoor stadium.

Do you ever listen to me?

A cricket tournament is going on

at the indoor stadium!

How come it's raining

so much in April?

Are you asking me that?

Great! Who am I asking!

Sorry!

A low-pressure area must have

formed over the Bay of Bengal.

You made me wear this

Churidar in the morning.

Uncle, it's not a Churidar.

It's a Kurta.

What's the difference

between your outfit and mine?

Even the stole is the same.

-Can you keep quiet, please?

-Arun...

Arun, the auspicious

time is about to pass.

What do we do now?

What do you think?

Shall we get married in the rain?

It will be unique.

The pictures will be awesome, right?

You convince your family.

Let me talk to mine.

Okay.

What did she say?

She said we needn't wait for

the auspicious time to be over...

-and that we'll get married in the rain.

-Awesome!

-Mommy..

-Yes.

Mommy, shall we get

married like this?

-Won't it be awesome?

-In this rain?

It will be fine, Uncle.

We needn't waste time.

What if someone catches a fever?

We can serve medicines

along with the feast.

Uncle, relax.

Come, let's have a couple of drinks.

Oh God! Please take him away!

I won't step out in the rain,

wearing this Churidar.

It's not a Churidar.

It's a Kurta!

Can you stop being

so ridiculous, Uncle?

Don't talk to me in English!

You know, right?

I won't accept this!

-It's only for a short while.

-No way.

-I wanted the indoor...

-Mommy, please.

There are too many people.

Everyone will catch a fever.

We'll see.

Please!

My dear Papa!

Please!

Uncle, please!

-Yeah!

-Okay. So be it!

Awesome!

Go! Go!

Get inside!

-Don't waste time.

-What's happening?

What's that noise?

Did she leave?

You are here, right?

-You are Nithya's friend, right?

-Yes.

I am Arun's friend.

Hi.

I'm Diya.

-Diya?

-Yes.

Nice name.

Very nice name!

Hey! Pull over!

-Why?

-Just do what I said!

Now, you guys go

and get some tea.

Huh?

Shall we have some tea?

Come!

I've heard about First night.

This is the first time

I'm seeing First day.

Huh?

You are really funny!

Am I?

Why is she laughing

for this lame joke?

No.

Thanks!

I will rock today!

Who is calling at this time?

-What is it?

-Dude, let's go.

She didn't agree, huh?

You idiot! Don't mess with me.

Come quickly!

I can't come so quickly.

We're having a serious conversation.

You can talk later.

We're getting late.

Come quickly.

Nithya, he will come now.

You scoundrel! Nothing should happen

for me, at any point of time, huh?

Huh?

Huh?

Shall we go?

It was a long time ago.

Now we're good friends.

Oh! So you're still

in touch with her?

Yeah!

Is that a problem?

What?

Of course not!

I trust you.

I sense something wrong!

I checked Darshana's Facebook

and Instagram accounts.

She has liked and commented

on every photo Arun has posted.

But she has not

liked or commented

on even a single photo

in which I'm with him.

She still has something for him!

Don't you have any other job?

Have you noticed

how he looks at you?

No scumbag has looked at me

like that, in my whole life.

-Just a minute.

-Oh! Take your time!

Okay.

Hey!

He is a solid guy!

But you should check his phone

and WhatsApp every now and then.

Though he's a solid guy,

don't give him a chance to cheat.

Uh oh! But checking his phone

is bad, right?

It's really bad...

if he finds out!

Do it without his knowledge.

Arun!

What happened, Arun?

What happened?

Around 10:30 PM,

Nithya started having labour pain.

At 11 PM,

we brought her to the hospital.

Since then,

I had been waiting here.

Around five minutes back,

the nurse came out

and asked for me.

Then...

she placed a tiny little

thing into my palms.

It's a boy!

I've become a father!

You're the first person

I felt like calling.

If I continue talking,

I might lose it.

I'm hanging up.

Darshana!

What happened?

Arun just had a baby!

Even your ex-boyfriend had a baby!

When are we going to talk

about marriage?

Woah!

Darshana, answer him!

Answer him, Darshana!

Come on!

Didn't you tell me that...

we'll call him by the name

that comes to your mind,

when you see him?

What do we call him?

What if you don't like

the name I call him?

He's our baby!

Call him what you like!

Selva!

Selva!

Nice name.

Selva Arun.

No.

Selva Nithya Arun.

Thank you!

It's nothing, dear.

Why has the baby been

crying for so long?

Give him to me.

Let me see.

-Come.

-He's not crying now.

He started crying only now.

That's enough.

Give the baby to me.

Don't cry, dear.

You must not feed

formula milk to the baby.

You must only feed

him mother's milk.

Can we let the baby starve

until she produces milk?

Why should you make

the baby wear diapers?

Ask her to put him

on a rubber sheet.

If we put him on a rubber sheet,

how many times do we clean it?

Will she do it?

Are you feeding him

with a plastic bottle, dear?

This is really bad for him.

This is not ordinary plastic.

It's BPA free.

Plastic is plastic!

Why don't you take the baby

out in the sun in the morning?

He needs to get

Vitamin D, right?

You come and sleep with

the baby at night, then.

We aren't able to sleep

because the baby keeps crying.

He has to get enough milk, right?

That's why he doesn't sleep.

My daughter is feeding him very well.

Babies cry! It's the same,

all around the world.

Can all of you please

leave this house?

I want to sleep!

It's been two days since I slept!

What a temper she has!

Couldn't you fall in love

with a docile girl?

If these three women

stay here together,

you will be done for!

That's for sure!

What should I do now?

I have taken leave

for three months.

I can take care

of my wife and son.

I don't need help from anyone!

If you don't want it,

we don't want it either.

You became a father

only now, right?

-Neelan, control yourself!

-No!

We won't stay here

even for a second longer.

Dhanya, go pack our bags!

Come on!

What are you waiting for?

Go and pack our bags!

Sorry.

Please pack our bags!

He'll get it from me.

What a performance!

You guys should have

been in the movies!

We should've, right?

You should never

listen to the advice

from your father

and father-in-law...

about raising a baby.

I learned that lesson

on that very day.

Though they may create a ruckus,

with no women in the house,

we are doomed!

Didn't I tell you not

to order it online?

-Why can't you buy it from a shop?

-I'll buy it right away.

Oh God!

You've been shopping

for so long!

Don't you want to come home?

Come quickly!

I just got into the lift.

I'm pressing the button.

Baby!!!

Please don't cry, baby!

My back is aching, Arun!

Shall I get you some

Amrutanjan balm?

Go give it to that ex

of yours, you idiot!

I'll bring Volini spray.

Oh God! I wonder

where the Volini is.

Oh! Baby!

Don't cry, dear.

Dude, the trailer of

Baahubali 2 is out.

Did you watch it?

Me?

You're asking me?

-Hello?

-Were you asleep?

It's okay.

Tell me.

What's your opinion

about me getting married?

What?

What's your opinion...

about me getting married

and starting a family life?

Very good opinion!

Very, very good opinion!

Don't delay it any further.

Do it immediately!

I haven't seen you

in so many years.

Arun!

I recognized you only

when you told me.

We had met back in Kerala, right?

-How are your kids doing?

-They are fine.

Bro! Welcome back to Madras!

-Thank you! How's it going?

-Hey Nithya! How are you?

-Was it too much trouble for you?

-It's alright. How was his journey?

-It was okay.

-Woah! He's crying a lot, huh?

I'm fed up of these Malayali

students who come to Chennai.

They get in with a waiting

list ticket and ask for seats..

Do you know him?

I've seen him somewhere.

Where does Darshana stay?

Darshana bought an apartment

worth 1.5 Crores in Kottivakkam.

Her life is set!

How does she have so much money?

Dude, the reach for her videos

is unbelievable.

She has so many fans

and followers.

And she gets paid really well

for collaborations too.

Shucks!

I missed a millionaire, huh?

I love you, baby!

I love you, baby!

-Get lost.

-What is this, man?

It's nothing, dear.

-I don't have a place to stay.

-You can stay with me.

-Hey! That's Arun!

-Hey, yeah!

Hello!

Didn't you guys go to the hotel?

No. He wanted to drop by.

[indistinct chatter]

We'll take care of the child.

We'll bring him soon.

-Nithya, they will bring the child.

-You guys carry on.

He's so cute!

-Where's the apartment?

-Arun! Arun!

-Arun, our baby!

-He'll be fine. Come!

Arun! Hey!

You should have brought

it earlier, right?

Why do you have to keep

everything for the last minute?

You're in full form early

in the morning itself, huh?

-When did you reach?

-Just now.

I thought I'll see you

and head to the hotel.

Darshana, Hi!

It's so nice to finally meet you!

I keep watching all your videos.

I mean, I'm a huge fan!

That video you shot

in Rajasthan, was awesome!

Thank you.

And what you've managed

to do for yourself

in just 6-7 years is just amazing!

The video you shot

in Punjab was so good.

-Nithya, that's enough.

-Sorry, I'm going on and on.

-Must be just excited or something.

-Darshana!

-Did you see him?

-Aww!

Awww!

He's so cute!

He actually looks a bit

like Arun, no?

Hey! He's crying.

Megha, can you hold him please?

Just a minute.

I'll be right back.

-Hey baby!

-Aww!

Who is this?

Who is this?

Is this your Papa?

Did you have food from outside?

-We'll eat from the hotel.

-Why don't you eat here?

-There's idli and sambar here.

-Have you eaten?

You look so different in a saree.

If your food vlogging fans see this,

they will snatch you away!

Arun!

Did you have food?

-No.

-Come!

Come, come.

Everybody, come!

Once the function is over...

Mom, don't serve him idli.

He likes upma.

Give him upma.

Do you like upma?

Yes, I love it.

But you never told me that.

Does anyone keep telling

everyone that they like upma?

How's the upma?

Yeah!

Terrific!

Darshana?

I need to talk to you.

Come to Palavakkam beach.

Darsh...

Arun!

Where are you going?

Err.. my friends are partying

in another hotel nearby.

I'll be back soon.

Darshana had called.

She said she wants to meet me.

Shall I go?

Go and come back soon.

Do you remember this place?

I've been thinking

for the past two days,

whether I should

get married or not.

Once I get married,

will I lose my freedom?

Will I be able to continue working

the way I am now?

Will I be able to take care

of my parents like I am now?

Will another person have control

over my financial matters?

So many things on my mind!

And then I was thinking...

Vishak is a great guy!

I fight a lot with him!

But he gets it!

He's...

He's so understanding.

I'm probably overthinking

these things, right?

Absolutely!

Arun,

if I had forgiven you

during our first year in college,

would we be together even now?

When you asked me this

at the station that day,

I didn't have an answer.

And do you have an answer now?

A few days after my son was born,

one morning,

I sat down for a while,

just looking at

the two people lying next to me.

There are some moments in life,

that make you realize

what you're living for.

It was a moment like that.

There will be a phase

like that in your life too.

What if it were like this...

What if it were like that...

You'll stop thinking

about all that.

You will understand,

"This is it!"

This is how it's going to be!

All this sounds great, but...

But I see so many marriages

just falling apart, it's...

What if these moments

you had in your life,

don't happen in mine?

If they don't,

you are doomed!

It's your wedding tomorrow!

Stop racking your brains,

go home and sleep peacefully.

It's not tomorrow.

It's today!

Shucks!

Arun, in that case...

Mithra has a shop

in Thoraippakkam, right?

Shall I go shop there?

Okay.

We have time anyway.

What is it, dear?

Brother!

Brother, please take a U-turn.

-Okay, sir.

-What happened?

Shall I visit my college?

We have time, right?

You finish your shopping

and come back.

I'm Jasleen.

Remember?

Your senior?

Darshana... jumping over the wall?

Yeah, yeah, yeah!

Oh my God!

How come...

How come you're here?

I helped many people

get out of this college.

I got stuck here!

I'm teaching.

Seriously?

Yeah!

Oh God!

"Oh God?"

So...

Who else...

I mean...

Who else is here

from our college days?

Who else...?

There are mainly four factors.

Effect of temperature,

effect of grain size,

effect of heat and...

Oh! You've got a beard now?

Like you've got gray hair.

I coloured it gray,

to get that look!

Yeah, right!

I came for Darshana's wedding.

-I'm on my way back.

-Missed it!

Special class!

Ma'am.... could you give me

the key to the secret alley?

Arun, you know right?

We give it only on

the final day of the final year.

It's the Principal's rule.

I'm in no position to change it.

Sorry!

It's okay.

Vijayetta!

All well?

You can call me Varikkappara.

I heard that you've come.

I'm working as the Vice-Principal's

staff now.

There was a friend of yours

who thrashed me back then, right?

What was his name?

-Anto!

-Yes.

Where is he now?

He's in America now.

Convey my regards to him.

Sure!

Keerthy Ma'am asked me

to give you something.

Return it quickly, okay?

Thank you, Vijayetta.
