Vathikuchi (2013) - full transcript

A share auto-driver gets entangled in a plot where 3 criminals want him dead.

'MATCH STlCK'

'AMBATTUR ESTATE'

Look at my son...oh god!

He's lying lifeless like this

Did I educate him

to see him like this?

I've got 25 insurance

policies this month

He wants another 25

How's that possible?

All my friends and relatives

run more than a mile from me

Even if I do manage, I must

get the same next month too

Continuous process

If we don't deliver

they'll kick us out

Insurance agent...sales rep

what kind of a lifestyle is this?

You know who is

to blame for this?

10 days back

we were free

We could even

blame it on bad time

But now, he is

the culprit for our plight

Why is he stepping

into our space?

Thanks to him, we are

roaming around like mongrels!

Someone...please

call an ambulance

At least inform the police

lmagine if he was dead here

instead of this poor soul...!

Less work, we'll be spared

the trouble of killing him

Oh gosh...!

Your baby is wailing

lsn't your husband at home?

He was there...!

I don't think so

Go home soon

How much

are the tomatoes?

Don't cry

Oh! My precious...!

Mummy didn't know

you had got up...sweety

'BENNY'

Yov! Can't you lift her

when she's crying?

Past few days

you've been sulking

Have I ever

stopped you from going?

Go...go and do

your chop-chop job!

They'll put you behind bars

We'll sit and rot outside

Have you any idea how

expensive milk powder is?

Give me Rs 100000 to take you

out on bail and kill as you please

'Gangariya'

This design is okay

- How many carats?

- 2 carats, sir

How many carats?

9 carats

Isit Italian cutting?

- Belgium cutting, F Grade

- It is nice

'Kolicha'

Saet, he won't

last another blow

- He'll die

- Hit him

Stop it

Can hear

all this downstairs

Let him wash his face

Admit him in a hospital

Use the rear exit

Last month 2 silver

toe rings were missing?

He has stolen them

Is this why we got him

from the village?

Why are you showing your

misplaced anger on him?

We don't have to kill him

You just watch

one of these days, he'll be floating

like a dog on the Coovum river

Go...attend

to your work

'These 3 people

have a common target'

'This is where he stays'

'Father'

'Younger sister'

'Mother'

'This is the target'

Hey! Where did you disappear

after dropping the kids in school?

I went to see Sundar

I know which Sundar

you went and saw

You would have

ogled at that girl

You can fall in love

Nothing wrong

But our families

are not compatible

They are too

educated for us

Won't match

Your father claims to be

a broker and loiters around

You drive

a share auto

You know the electricity

department near the beach?

Her father works

as a watchman there

Her older sister has married

a ward boy in a Govt. hospital

All of them are assured

of a regular salary every month

First of every month, her mother

extends such a long grocery list

Shop keeper delivers

the stuff at their door step

They buy one liter of milk daily

Some days

we don't even buy milk!

Her father rides past our house

at 7:00 pm in a TVS 50...

...with a plastic bag

hanging in front

He buys daily

for his daughter

What's that...?

Aah! Mushroom

He buys daily

for his daughter

What's that...?

Aah! Mushroom

Your father bought for

your sister...a month later

He's oblivious to the fact

charity begins at home

Have you seen the designer

clothes that girl wears?

Besides all this

she is educated

Ma, if she consents,

will you be okay with it?

She won't

say 'yes'

Hey! Shakthi

Vanraju?

Why don't you take

an insurance policy?

I just did

2 months ago

That was for your mother

Give me one in your name

Why do I even need one?

Otherwise my manager will not

pay me this month's salary

- Okay, collect it after 2 days

- Thanks, Shakthi

What's the matter?

Shakthi agreed to take

a policy in his name

I'll leave the form

with you for him to sign

I wanted to say

something else...?

Why don't you ask Shakthi to

stay out of town for a month?

Why?

The head constable told me

If Shakthi gets into any trouble

he'll be on the accused list

Let me see them do that

They can't take us for a ride

because we are illiterate and poor

Padma's son came back home

from the hotel he works in

They didn't find

the real culprit in some robbery

So they nabbed him instead

I sent Shakthi

to look into it

He took a lawyer with him

They at once dropped the case

Let them try making

my son an accused

I won't send him away anywhere

He'll be with me at home

I thought I should tell you

since I heard about it

Wait...eat some idlis

(steamed rice cakes)

Don't worry.

I'll eat at home

Your mother wouldn't have

cooked so early...wait

Tambaram...Tambaram...Tambaram

Tambaram...Tambaram...Tambaram

I'm about

to leave, bro

Yov! This won't go to

Tambaram, get down

-Why?

-Just get down

How annoying!

I'm scared

of class today

Why should you

be scared?

When did you wake up?

5:00 a.m

Have you prepared well?

Then...how will you forget?

Don't panic

We'll rock today

Dude, I'll go to

Tambaram today

You go to

some other area

I'll treat you and your wife

to a special biryani tonight

I'll get you

2 movie tickets

In a multiplex theater in the city

you can watch in cozy comfort

Please...

Don't announce

She is almost here

She's heading this way

Please...!

Ambattur...Avadi

Ambattur...Avadi

Ambattur...Avadi

Ambattur...Avadi

What's happening here?

Tambaram...Tambaram

Let's get into this

Didn't you read

the newspaper at home?

No time

Keep an eye

on my auto, dude

- Hi friends

- Good afternoon, ma'am

- How was your week end?

- Nice, ma'am

- Routine, ma'am

- Good

-Are you all prepared?

-Yes, ma'am

Shut up

Where is Koperundevi?

I tried my best

to call her, ma'am

But she refused to come

Why?

She's scared to speak

in English it seems

Why are you scared

of conversing in English?

Why are you worried

if you speak wrong English?

Make mistakes

Just let the words tumble out

We are here

to correct you

English is so simple

Ramesh, come here

- What are you planning to do?

- Chicken Biriyani, ma'am

Go ahead

1/2 Kg Chicken

2 tomatoes, 2 onions

one lemon and a small cup

of curd...oil

Why are you stalling?

I don't know the name for

frying pan in English, ma'am

Take the pan

Put on the stove

Then fry the chicken,

onion, tomato

Take the cooker with rice

Put on the stove

Waiting some minutes

Biriyani ready

-Who wants to taste?

- Not us, ma'am

We were horizontal for 4 days

tasting Leena's spinach pancake!

Next, Leena

and Sivakami

-What is your 'Fluency-act'?

- Phone talk, ma'am

Take your mobiles

Leena, turn

to your left

Sivakami, turn

to your right

Now you start

- Hi Leena

- Hi

- How old are you?

- Fine

Stop...stop

She's asking your age

You are saying

'I am fine'!

Ma'am, I answered correctly

She asked me

the wrong question

If she changes the question

you should answer accordingly

Why are you

messing it up?

I asked

the right question

Okay...let's start

all over again

Hi Leena

- How are you?

- Fine

-What are you doing?

- Watching TV

-Which program?

- 'You or me'?

Dude, I've studied up to grade 6

Leena up to grade 9

So my mother thinks

I shouldn't fall in love with her

She says that her family

belongs to a higher status

Is that so, dude?

Love is beyond status

and such statistics

All this is common in love

Is that girl

interested in you?

That means...?

We'll keep

looking at girls

But they won't

meet our glance

They'll look at us when

we are not looking at them

We'll catch them

looking at us

- Has she looked at you?

- No, she hasn't

When you walk

past their house...

...they know very well

we are 'hitting' on them

But they'll feign innocence

They'll deliberately

swing their hips and hands

Smile and laugh

a little extra

- Has she done that?

- No...!

I can be brutally frank

Then you shouldn't feel bad

That's why

I'm asking you

She doesn't

love you one bit

Get lost!

- Okay

- Bye

See you tomorrow

Take care

Have a nice day

- Samathuvapuram...!

- Velachery...!

Ambattur...Avadi

Ambattur...Avadi

Velachery...Velachery

Samathuvapuram

Samathuvapuram

Samathuvapuram

Samathuvapuram

My boyfriend is here

to pick me up

We're going to

Gandhi Mandap

He's standing

over there

-You...going home?

- Today is Friday, right?

I'm going to Velachery

Weekend with

my grandmother

My mother will

come there directly

Velachery...Velachery!!

You are

very sincere

Forever studying

In school, at home

Even while walking!

English is really tough

I hope you won't get me wrong

if I say something to you

We both stay

in Samathuvapuram

I know

I'm in your neighborhood

at least twice or thrice a day

Not on work

Just to catch

a glimpse of you

I know

When you get into my auto

I'll keep admiring you in my mirror

Sometimes I won't even

notice the oncoming traffic

- Madam

-What?

You said 'I know'

to all that I said

Don't you know

why I said all this?

Why?

I love you very much

Okay

- That means?

- Go ahead

-Are you serious?

-Yes, go ahead!!

''Her love, she did blaze

with her shrewd gaze''

''Her teeny weeny words I heard

I sprouted wings like a bird''

''I look around and grin sheepishly

I feel like jumping with joy boyishly''

''Song I just heard echoes in my mind

I dance shamelessly unconfined''

''Her love, she did blaze

with her sharp gaze''

''Her itsy bitsy words I heard

I sprouted wings like a bird''

''Her love, she did blaze

with her astute gaze''

''Itty-bitty''

''Wings''

''She blessed me with''

''Heaviness, without pain or pleasure

peeps from my heart's enclosure''

''Night vows 'I want you right now'

playing games with me and how!''

''Your name when asked, besotted

you should tell my name instead''

''I should walk by your side

to be viewed worldwide''

''Like a swing, swaying to and fro

Foryou my heart swings, you know''

Mother, serve me lunch

You are so down in the dumps

because you can't talk to that girl

How can you eat now, son?

The 2 are not connected

Serve me lunch now

''Her love, she did blaze

with her keen gaze''

''Her teensy weensy words I heard

I sprouted wings like a bird''

''I look around and smile sheepishly

I feel like jumping withjoy boyishly''

''Song I just heard echoes in my mind

I dance shamelessly unrestrained''

'Forget yourself but never

forget your mother dear'

''Adding zeroes 7, I count to a crore

I kill time...to see you, encore''

''The one who divided night and day

I search, to kill in desperate dismay''

''Girl, this love is a deadly ghost-bite

It will heal only when we unite''

''I prayed for a wish 24/7 ardently

to lean on your shoulder tenderly''

''I prayed for a wish 24/7 diligently

to lean on your shoulder tenderly''

''Her love, she did blaze

with her clever gaze''

''Herteeny weeny words I heard

I sprouted wings like a bird''

''I look around and grin sheepishly

I feel like jumping withjoy boyishly''

''Song I just heard echoes in my mind

I dance shamelessly unrefined''

- Hello...?

- What...!

After your English class today

shall we go to Vandaloor zoo?

Zoo...why?

Generally all those in love

go to some secluded place

And hold hands

Talk for hours on end

That's why

I thought...we could also-

- Okay, who is in love?

-You and me

Hello! You said you love me

I don't love you

You said 'yes'

the other day

No, I never did

You misunderstood

You know

my uncle's place, no?

When I cross

that street at 11:00 am...

...one chap will ogle at me

while brushing his teeth!

Another chap will keep looking

at me while drinking tea

Then another chap will ride past

in his bike falling all over me!

That's what you do too

Can I go to every single chap

and say ''don't look at me''?!

They have every

right to look at me

I have every right

to ignore!!

I won't cross my line

Neither should they!

You said you love me

I said 'Go ahead'

Did I say 'I do'?!

Why are you

talking in circles?

Hello! I make

complete sense

Since you haven't studied,

everything I say seems Greek

Okay, try at least now

I'll wait for you to say yes

How can I?

Shouldn't you know?

I'm just now learning English

to speak basic Grammarrr...

...ah! Conversation

Then a degree in Tamil Nadu Open

university followed by a good job

Rest can follow later

I have plenty

of commitments

Think about it

If I say 'my husband is

a share auto driver'...

...does it sound good?!

If I've hurt you

I'm sorry

Hurt in English means

to trouble someone

Nothing of that sort

Then, okay...bye

Bro, send him

back home early

Okay, sis

Benny, the crap I ate in jail

will keep flashing in my mind...

...but I won't be able to eat

Places I visited keeps

flashing before my eyes

But I won't be able

to go anywhere

I'll want to sleep with my wife

But won't be able to!

Sheer hell, Benny

Don't think I'm blabbering

in a drunken stupor

Even our worst enemy

shouldn't go in, Benny

Why did you laugh?

I'll be going

to jail soon

Don't say that, Benny

Why did you say that?

How long have we known

each other? Tell me

lsn't it for a long time?

Whom did we do all this for?

Because the garment factory

owner in Chrompet asked us to

After that I married

your younger sister

Bring me the egg

Then sheer bravado

you went inside...jail

The hotelier in T. Nagar

And the chap who owns

a theater in Mount road

They repeatedly called

and gave me work

You know that shop

owner Kothal Rao...?

He gave me a job

It must have

been one:30 p.m.

I remember

that day so well

Sir, job done

-Where is he?

- In my car boot

Take him with you

to Pondicherry

Keep him with you

till the conference ends

Take him with you

to Pondicherry

Keep him with you

till the conference ends

Somehow manage tonight

Tomorrow I'll ensure

you get the money

Okay, sir

Has anyone

got any money?

No, bro, we are

dependent on you

What do we do for

our booze session tonight?

There should be

an ATM nearby

Someone will

withdraw cash every 10 minutes

-We can make a killing, bro

-What an idea...imbecile!

All of you...get down

I'll take the kids

to the hotel here

You go and get cash

from the ATM

Come, let's go

- I want poori

- Order what you want

Talk later on your phone

Get cash first

Let's go

- Come soon

- Okay, ma

Hello

Seriously, I'm not

working today

My sister's birthday

My father got his brokerage

commission only last week

You know

my father

He brought some kids

from the orphanage

We've been

having a great time

Watched a movie

They've just gone in

to the hotel nearby to eat

Okay, I'll talk

to you later

- Bro...!

- Get in

You should have seen

that poor fool's expression

He froze

No one's probably ever

pointed a knife at him there!

That's why

We are eating now

After we finish eating

we must pay that man

But if we dig a knife

into his neck...

...he'll be giving us

money instead!

This holds good for

people all around us

I thought

he was like that too

But he came back

next month

Who are you?

Don't stand

in front of the house

Get lost

Are you Vetri's man?

Did you come to see our boss?

What does Vetri want?

- No, I came to see you

- Me? Why?

You took 10,000 rupees

from me and I want it back

-What?

- Last month, Prince plaza

Dude, when we went to Pondicherry

last month, we swindled him, no?

Why didn't you

come sooner?

Why so late?

We spent your money

In that one month's gap

It was evident

he went to the gym

He must have

eaten eggs raw

And in the morning eaten

chickpea soaked overnight

Must have seen

a lot of stunt films

Yes! Because that is

how he stood

So? If you go to the gym and

work out...will you become brave?

A few pull ups can't

make him be like us

But he came again

He got the shivers

looking at us

He couldn't even

stand one blow

He is a real dummy

Dude! Look, he's back

Ask him what he wants

What's your problem?

What on earth

do you want?

You come here to

get beaten every month

You keep turning up since

we hit you in installments

We'll make a full

and final settlement

I need to settle this

with you, come down

Get lost...go and

do your job...go

These guys are

not really brave

Now it's your turn

Won't you

listen to me?

'My face must've had the same

expression that his had...'

'...when he was threatened

with the knife at the ATM'

'He must've thought

I chickened out...true'

'He took me

by surprise'

'In brawls, getting beaten up

is as common as lashing out blows'

'But it affected

my profession'

'All my henchmen went to fall

at the mercy of random feet!'

'Will they keep quiet?'

'Benny was beaten up

by an auto driver...'

'...Benny panicked'

''Benny is useless'' they said

'Those who heard this will

naturally think it as gospel'

'I was jobless for a year'

So can I carry bags of

dried shrimps in the harbor?

You should have shown

your beast side that day to him

He wouldn't be

alive today then

You've thought it all through

What will happen to your wife

and kid, you've planned it all

I'm out now, no?

You take care of

my younger sister

I'll kill him, Benny

Who cares about jail?

He walks on

the same road I do

If I make up my mind

he won't exist tomorrow

But mustn't kill as soon

as the thought strikes you

They'll make me count bars!

By ruining him

I shouldn't be ruined

I'll get a chance

I'll kill him

You'll be a witness

How dare you!

- Watch your tongue

- Father...help

- Maa, mother!

-Where're you running?

Ma, please stop

Everybody's looking

That's why I'm doing it

How dare you run?

- Father...!

- I'll kill you

- Ma, they're hitting her nonstop

- Hitting whom?

Leena

Let them, her tongue

wags too much it seems

They just moved to this area

And I'm already hearing stuff

Let her get

a few blows

Ma, go ask them why

We can't do all that

It'll seem strange

- If you don't go, I will

- This boy...!

Ma...why?

Don't hit me

Sister...don't hit

a girl like this

Why are you

keeping quiet?

Born under the zodiac Gemini

she's destined to be hit today

So let her face it

Why are you

hitting her like this?

I picked out

such a nice name for her

By the grace of God

I called her Meena

But she calls

herself Leena

I ignored it thinking she wanted

her name to sound stylish

Now she says she wants

to become a Christian

If her conservative grandparents

who are devout Hindus hear this...

...how will they react?

Won't they say she converted

due to lack of money at home?

I'll break your leg

Hey Leena!

Why your mother

attacking you?

I think no knowledge

my mother

Are you saying

I have no brains?

Let her go

- lsn't that the guy?

-Yes, that's him

See how carefree he is!

How much money

he made us waste

Humiliating!

Going to court,

cops, media, lawyers

How much money

we'd have spent!

How will he understand

the value of money?

He'll keep driving

an auto till he dies

I wanted to

tell you this

There's an accused named

Benny in Pallavaram

Rowdy

He bloodies his hands and dabbles

in all illegal matters for many of us

He and this auto driver

are at loggerheads

Benny wants to

kill this auto driver

He came to our club to

ask Kothal Rao for money

I was also there

Kothal Rao didn't give him money

He also left the place

Rao is our good friend, no?

So I told him, 'don't give money,

just agree to handle his case'

'Let him kill

whomever he wants'

I've planted

this idea in Rao's head

Why are you silent?

- What do you want me to say?

- Not you, granny

Are you irritated?

Your mother took me

aside and said...

...'My son is good

and intelligent'

'He reads

4 papers a day'

'It's sad that we weren't

able to make him study'

And said 'You are

a very lucky girl'

Your sister's calling me

sister-in-law so fondly

What did you

tell them?

I didn't tell them

that you loved me

I told them

I loved you

- Okay...so why do you love me?

- Because you are truly beautiful

But won't I

expect the same?

As if you're handsome!

I like academics

So do you, no?

My friend's here

Slow the auto down

- Hi, Vijaylakshmi

- Hi Leena

- How are you?

- I'm fine! How are you?

I'm fine!

Okay, bye

-Take care

- Bye! Take care

- Have a nice day

- Have a nice day!

Here...stop

-Your auto fare

- No need

Love and auto fare

are not connected

Leena...look

Your guy is over there

Go...!

Go...!

She's so cool

with her coolers!

Let's go

''Mom, wake me up tomorrow

9:00 in the morning''

''I need to buy lip gloss

''Mum, wake me up at

''We love to shop

''Junk shop

''We can keep shopping

''Ask your boyfriend to tag along

To carry bags we need a man strong''

''Please ask your boyfriend to come

To carry our bags, that'd be awesome''

''Shopping mall is here

Why is your face dull, dear?''

''Let's go to the car park

Touch up, wipe the tired mark''

''Look at that chick so stylish

''Places we go of our choice

''Move heaven and earth's end

''These girIswill flit, flirt, sway

Are we watchmen, not worth a dime?''

Weird, wasted, worthless shopping!

''Love to shop

''Shopping spree

Casual and carefree''

''Hours on end

No bell, no bend''

''Our hearts on a spin

even if wallets get thin''

''Dad, wake me up at

''Dad, wake me up

''I need to get hair spray

I must go shopping''

''At 10:30 my friend comes home

At 11 share auto to roam''

''Give me change, only 500

Can't eat cereal or bread''

''Don't tell mom, she'll detonate!

I may be home late''

''Wherever...shop or street-wise

we only see boys...boysss!''

''Confess I'm a shopaholic

That's what makes me tick''

''It's a new shop-saga

where we go gaga''

''We get a heart attack

if we don't buy knick knack''

''Just an impulse it kindles

till bank balance dwindles!''

- Who is that?

-A girl I know

- That means?

- I know her

I understood that

'How do you know her'

is my question!

You mustn't keep secrets

from the girl you love

As if you love me!

I don't...but you do, no?

So you can confide in me

I had never fought

with anyone before that

That was the first time

'They snatched

Rs 10,000 from me'

'It was my sister's birthday'

'We had taken 7 - 8 kids

from the orphanage for a treat'

Tell those kids to get up

Someone went to get

money from the ATM

We'll seat them

when that guy returns

Ask the kids

to wait out

Peak hours

So many are waiting

Let's go

We'll come back

Come, my dear

We'll be back

Thanks a lot

'In the afternoon, we took them

to Padapai, Kovalam and...'

'...then dropped them back

at the orphanage'

'They were very happy'

'After we came home, my parents

didn't ask me even a single question'

'Because they realized

that whoever in my shoes...'

'...would have reacted

the same way I did'

'But I couldn't just let it go

Because it wasn't just money'

'It was my father's hard work'

'How could someone by

brandishing a knife...'

'...just take it all away?'

'I decided right then to get

my money back somehow'

'I complained

to the police'

'They told me to

be glad I was alive'

'Even after 15 days, they still

couldn't retrieve my money'

'How could I just let it go?

Today...it is money'

'Tomorrow, someone might

steal my auto in the same way'

'I'd have to walk down that

same road with my family again'

'This truth disturbed me'

'To come out of this crisis I decided

I had to get that money back'

'I found the guy with the knife

And then I found his boss, Benny'

'This led me to many dealers

who made this business tick'

'Their words and their

code of (mis)conduct'

'If I had to cope

with all this...'

'...I needed the same mental

strength in my body too'

'I went to the gym

I put on weight'

'I learned to fight,

built myself up'

'Ate a lot, got beaten up, beat them

Finally got my 10,000 rupees back'

'And when I gave

the money to my father...'

'...I saw happiness on his face'

'And I realized I could

achieve anything I wanted'

'I gained self confidence

only that day!'

All I asked you

was about that girl

You are giving me

some long story

Wait...listen to it fully

That's when you'll understand

'one day, I was waiting to

see you and you didn't come'

Give me the auto key

I'm late for work

It's peak hour

Crowd will disperse

Bro, one tea

This area won't work

I looked all around

There are too many small roads

If he runs into one,

it'll be difficult

We won't be able

to do anything

We'll go to that bridge

I suggested earlier

We'll get rid of him there

He won't be able to escape

Apparently he's a bold guy

That's why Saet asked us to

kill him when he's with his family

He didn't agree

to any bribe

Wouldn't take money, car or

doctor seat for his daughter

He speaks like some big saint

We've planned it for 6 months

It's a sure shot

Day after morning at exactly

9:15 we'll finish him off

You come home at night

Payment will be prompt

Are the kids fine?

Going to school?

Give my regards

to your wife

How can that be?

No one will stand in the middle of

a busy road...and discuss where to murder

I heard it properly, pa

He even said 9:15 a.m

Venue is below the bridge

It's not like the place he got

mugged was empty either

There were 100 shops

It was broad daylight

If something had happened to him

that day, could we have taken it?

Poor guy...I wonder who's kid

they are planning to kill

Whoever it is, will have

a mother like me, no?

She'll be hurt most

'What happened to me will be

happening to someone else now'

'But in a worse way

What can I do about it?'

Did your father

send any message?

No, I wanted

to talk to you

Tomorrow at 9:15 a.m

they're murdering a man, sir

-Who?

- I don't know

- Kill whom?

- I don't know

But they've planned it

for 6 months

As if it's done impulsively?

That's how all murders

happen...preplanned!

You've learned about it

earlier, that's all

-We shouldn't let it happen, sir

- How can we prevent it?

You said I should not have beaten up

Benny but come to you instead

- That was for you

- Treat this the same way

Look here, son

There are million formalities

when a real murder is committed

My higher officials

will torture me

You are saying

it's going to happen!

That's it

I can't work here

Then leave it

Why are you

in this job?

Get out of here

Drive your auto

'Always, when it happens

to you, it's an ordeal'

'When it happens to someone

else, it's entertainment'

'No one really cared about it

And there was a valid reason'

'And that was fair enough in a way

But I wasn't able to do the same'

'It kept haunting me,

over and over again'

'I saw him

the next day again'

'I was pretty sure they'd kill him

the next day underthe bridge'

'But no one knew this'

'Why...even the victim didn't know

I was the only one who knew'

'How could I sleep?

I stayed up all night'

'I only had 2 choices

one was to ignore it'

'And no one will question me

But I couldn't do that'

'At day break, I stood on

the Velachery over bridge'

one tea

Can you please

mend my slipper?

- I can't do it now

- Little urgent, office hour, man

What can I do?

I'll give you ten bucks

Please oblige

- I can't...go away

- How helpful is that!

- Tell me

- Has he started?

He'll be there in

1/2 hour, be ready

Don't switch off your phone

Don't attend any other calls

You are smoking in this place

with so many people here

What 'sorry'?

Don't you have any sense?!

I stubbed it, okay?

But why did you puff away

in the first place here?

I stubbed it, no?

Watch your tongue

Measure your words.

Smoke suffocates me

and I shouldn't ask, huh?

Why are you

coming to his rescue?

You go and do

your cobbler's job

You'll hit a man in public and

expect me to keep mending shoes?!

- Okay, then ask me why

- That's what I did just now

- Daddy...what happened?

- No idea

I'll call the police

If I hadn't picked up a fight,

they'd have killed you within minutes

How long has he been

working for you?

5 months

They've been planning to

kill you for the past 6 months

I don't know

the reasons

You figure it out yourself

You call the police!

'There are 2 financiers in Sowcarpet

Gangariya and his son Kolicha'

'They resent paying income tax'

'They bribed all the Income tax officers'

'But they struck a blank wall

against Moideen sir!'

'So in the end,

they decided to kill him'

'I put a spanner in their works

most unexpectedly'

'My father's favorite words...'

''Helping an anonymous person

and being helped by a random stranger...''

''...are the most joyous

deeds in this world''

'I experienced

that joy for the first time'

'How do they have the heart

to kill such human beings!?'

Okay...so the girl in that car

came and spoke to you

In the jeans and the t-shirt

Am I right?

Yes

Why did you ask me to

not take it the wrong way?

And gave me

such a build-up?!

You already think of me

as illiterate and unrefined

If you knew I was into fighting, you'd get

scared and tag me as a rowdy, no?

Me? Scared?

Of you and fighting?

Yes

Can I tell you something?

Go ahead

Please don't tell anyone else

the way you spun this tale to me

You don't know how to lie

Your face gives it all away

It seems he stood

in a tea shop to see me...!

There he overheard some yellow shirt

stranger say he was killing someone

He got all flustered and told

the cops, his family, friends and...

...finally he himself

rescued the man it seems!

Does this sound

like a believable story?

Do you even

know how to lie?

No

Look into my eyes

Can you believe I've lied?

But I have

Once, all of us from English class

bunked and went to the beach

Me, Sivakami, Koperundevi

Shanmugasundari...we had fun

Entire beach

was looking at us

We ate corn on the cob,

dried our dupattas...

...and got ready to leave

And that's when I saw

my aunt, uncle and cousins

They yelled out

my name loudly

What would you've done

if you were in my shoes?

- Tell me

- I don't know

You'd have turned

around immediately

...or scooted from that place

But I walked away casually

I got into the bus

and went home

When I reached home,

they'd have told her, no?

My mother asked me

''where did you go''?

I said I went

for my English class

She looked at my feet

It seems I'd have

sand on my feet

I was too smart

for that, right

My father asked me

to swear on his life

I hesitated for a minute

I looked at my father

And then at his head

First my father

Then his head

I smacked him

in the middle of his head

I stuck to my story

Then my mother said ''your sister

will be dying to blame my daughter''

''As if I've brought

her up so badly!''

That is how

you should lie!

You are hopeless at it

If all that you said were true...

...would you be able to roam

freely behind a girl?

- They'd have killed you

-Yes...yes

''Know thyself''

''Trust in your talent''

''Believe in your best''

''Man's deeds burn up in a blaze

His guises catch up in many ways''

''Man's actions in flames burn down

His guises come a full circle around''

''Unseen evil presence

hounds us with a vengeance''

''Hunts us night and day

Makes a dramatic display''

''Times are tough

to trust our own self''

''Treachery and deceit

exist without limit''

''Rely on your

resourcefulness''

''Have faith

in your prowess''

''Don't doubt

what you can do''

''If push comes to shove

your best bet is...you!''

If we hire a man

to kill Shakthi...

...we'll get caught

when he gets caught

Only one way out

There was a news report

about 2 murders in Kanyakumari

The police are hunting for

Gunaseelan for past one month

He is hiding safely

in an apartment

He parties at night

Sleeps during the day

I've been visiting

this apartment

There's a gun hidden

behind the God's picture

For one week

In the same spot

We can flick it

We can shoot Shakthi in his auto

within 10 feet distance

We can return

the gun back

What do you say?

Someone was hassling

one of our partners

I tried talking to him-

Come in

Greetings, bro

-Why didn't you come yesterday?

- I was tied up, bro

My friend Karuvelamuthu

He is into marketing

Didn't Durai tell you?

They get loans from banks

passing fake jewelry as genuine

Gunaseelan bro

Continue your story

What?

He was telling us

about his escapades

- Forget that

- Tell me, bro

Those days if we needed to hit

someone, we'll take him to the seaside

We were 3 of us

We beat him to a pulp

He was lying

horizontal on the waters...

with imprints of our thrashing,

shirt torn and soaked in blood

We were drinking

tender coconut water

I looked down

He was staring at me

I asked

if he wanted a drink

He too nodded his head

I gave him

tender coconut water

He raised

his head and drank

The tender coconut water

instead of going down his throat...

somehow hit my eye

I slashed him, one neat

blow with my sickle

Right into his Adam's apple

His head severed

from the body

From then on I got

a tremendous fan following

Son of a wretch!

Play that CD

''Golden moon my dearest

My dream nestled in your crescent''

Pour him

a few more pegs

Wash it down

''Thunder applauds my song

No picket fence to hinder along''

''Wild tempestuous jungle

Sing while into me you snuggle''

''Looking at you and at the ground

glistens like gold, shimmering around''

''My dear birdie, my mate

Cuddle up to me, satiate''

Chay! Can't find the gun

Did you check properly?

- I did

- Search in that room

''Play the bull taming sport

With an apt ally wrestle and cavort''

''Today is unlike yesterday

Tomorrow is not like today''

''Today is unlike yesterday

Tomorrow is not like today''

Only you go

I'll stay here

Let one of them

wake up in the morning

Then I'll leave

If he asks for me, tell him

I got an urgent call, I left

Vanu, don't hold

the gun in your hand

Put it in our

hideout and go home

That auto guy should

NOT be alive tomorrow

'The number you are calling

is switched off now'

Karuvelamuthu

Hey! Karuvelam

Why are you

sitting here like this?

Karuvelamuthu

What happened?

Hey! Who hit you?

Say something

I'll know only

if you tell me

Where have you

hidden the gun?

Tell me...where

the gun is

Gun?

Which gun?

I don't even know what

you are talking about

You don't know?

Oh god...!

Don't die

Give it back to me

I don't understand

Why would I take a gun?

You won't tell?

Oh god...!

We didn't take the gun

He got a call, he rushed

I was drunk, I couldn't go

So I stayed behind

Hello...tell me?

Nachiappan, what happened?

These 2 boys don't

seem to have taken it

Call that George boy

He's been asking for money

for the last couple of days

I refused

So maybe he took

my gun to sell it

Okay, Gunaseela

I'll catch hold of George

I'll tap his head hard enough

for him to cough up the gun

Don't be tensed

I'll deal with it

Hey! Let him go

Where did you

get the gun from?

It's been here all along?

That means you took it

Listen, this is

Gunaseelan's gun

I'll talk to him about it

You leave now

I'm really mad

with you right now

Shakthi

- Tell me

- Why do you do this to me?

What?

I couldn't sleep all night

I kept tossing and turning

I woke up

at 5:00 a.m

Even though my mother

tried to wake me up...

...I got out of

bed only at 8:30

I felt like talking to you

But I controlled my urge

My hands were itching

to dial your number

I thought

I shouldn't

But I did...okay

Where are you now?

At home

I feel like seeing you

- Come quickly

- Okay, okay

Keep that aside

Stand here

Why do you need

my blessing now?

Drive carefully

Okay, you spoke

your heart out

You called me

And I'm here now

Come

Sit down

Why are you

torturing me like this?

I haven't been this way

before, you know?

This is not me at all

I was thinking 'oh this

boy is crazy about me'

'But if I finish studying,

they'll find me a groom...'

'...with an office job and

get me married to him'

Then what'll happen to you?

I can't even sleep properly

I think you've fallen

too much for me

You are flying

high in the sky

If you fall down

you are finished

I'm only flying, no?

I don't mind falling

It's easy to say all this

But very difficult

You won't be able to

handle it, when it happens

I don't think you've

understood love completely

You know my friend Sivakami?

Her cousin loved a girl

For 4 years, sincerely

Then she got married to

someone her parents chose

You know that tall building

next to LlC in Mount road?

This boy jumped off that building

And then my friend Devi...a boy

was in love with her for 3 years

She loved him too

But she dumped him

because he was an alcoholic

So he jumped in front of

an electric train in Chrompet

You understand why

I'm saying all this, right?

I know

You slowly try to get me

out of your system

I'll talk to you and we'll stay

the same way we are now

Doesn't that auto

look familiar?

Yes

There's a girl

sitting inside

That must be Leena

Hold this, I'll be back

Hey Leena

Come here

Gosh! My mother

You stay right here

Don't get out

What are you

doing here?

They told me they saw you

at the beach and park

I turned a deaf ear

I believe them now

Mother, don't beat

around the bush

Ask me straight

to my face

He's the one

who's in love with me

I'm not in love with him

Why?

-What do you mean 'why'?

-Why don't you love him?

I can't get married

to an auto driver

Though your father

works in a Govt. office...

...the money lender grabs

a huge chunk monthly

He is sozzled

every evening

This boy doesn't have

any bad habits

He even owns an auto

What else do you want?

Mother, don't brainwash me

I'll tell my father

you said this about him

So you'll never fall

in love with him?

Yes

So you shouldn't one day

placate and plead with me...

...to support your love and

break the news to your father

- I won't do that

- Sure?

Confirmed

-What did your mother say?

-What did she say?

She yelled at me

She doesn't like me

talking to you as it is

And now

she saw us together

She said she'll break

my legs when I get home

It's all because of you

- Sorry, Leena

-What do you mean 'sorry'?

Don't ever look

at me again...go

''Am I a baby to get terrified

if you widen your eyes wild?''

''Are you a parakeet to repeatedly

spear me with words heatedly?''

''You try to intimidate me

with your tricks willy nilly''

''You try to brainwash me

with your words full of honey''

''I'll have the last laugh

after I make you my equal haIf!''

''Am I a child to get petrified

if you roll your eyes owl-wide?''

''Are you a parrot to constantly

dissect me with words so deadly?''

''I'll ease your pain with kisses 1000

I'll show your life in a nano second''

''With French kisses I'll savor your flavor

With spiky lashes I'll graze you all over''

''I'll make you mine in a split second

I'll caress the fiery rain and sun frosted''

''Tresses tremble wet

Moustache in beads of sweat''

''Am I a kid to feel threatened

if saucer-eyed you beckoned?''

''Are you a parakeet to frequently

chop me with words eloquently?''

''Both seas merge as one to swell

Nailsscrawl their address as well''

''Closed eyes flare

with an intense stare''

''In my angel's breath is heard

gasp and groan love-spurred''

''Moon yonder, I'm sea here

I try to gush to you my dear''

''When clothes (st)rip my soul

I slowly lose control''

''Eyelids relax

Lips drawtracks''

''Am I a child to get mortified

if you rotate your eyes nationwide?''

''Are you a parrot to recklessly

torpedo me with words rapidly?''

Hey Vanu!

What are you doing here?

He went inside

Dude, this is

Praveen's area

Housing board

If he is inside,

he has to come out this way

There's no other way

Everyone knows us here

We must be discreet

Keep the gun

inside at all times

-What is it, son?

- I'm visiting my friend

'That day I testified for

income tax officer Moideen'

'And against the financiers

Gangariya and Kolicha in court'

'Afterthat, I've been

in various little fights'

'Supporting an old banana vendor,

an elderly teacher, mechanic'

'The local police station even

has a few cases against me'

'How could I act helpless

when I really wasn't?'

'But in that situation,

I was really happy'

'I didn't think

this would happen then'

'My neighbor, the guy who smiled

at me everyday and waved at me...'

'...Vanaraj was now suddenly

brandishing a gun at me'

'I don't have any

problem with him'

'No fights, no enmity'

'I've never crossed

swords with him'

'Why does he want to kill me?'

'We'll definitely kill Shakthi today

His death is his own fault, not ours'

'A month earlier'

His name is

Dakshinamurthy

He started

a company with his friend

Middle class

Started earning well

He has a 4 year old kid

Tablets, injections, allopathic

medicine won't work on that kid

He's allergic to them

His body will break into boils

That's why Dakshinamurthy

loves his son excessively

Next month he's getting

a big sum of money

Nearly 90 lakhs

We will kidnap his 4 year old

Hold him hostage for one day

And we'll send only one

message to Dakshinamurthy

...demanding 60 lakhs

if he wants his son back alive

Everyone will be terrified

that the boy will die

And Dakshinamurthy

will concede to our demands

Each of us gets 20 lakhs

and we'll all be settled

- Won't he go to the police?

- He's not that kind

How is he getting

this money?

He and his friend

sweated it out for 10 years

But he came out over a small dispute

This amount is his compensation

Such an emotional type

Middle class mind

His kid is more important

to him than money

No need, dude

We see stuff like this

in the news all the time

If we get caught

we are done for!

We only see stuff about

people who got caught

Are only so many crimes

happening in the city?

Do you know how many unsolved crime

reports are piled up in a police station?

So many crimes are committed

without complaints being registered

Where are all

those offenders?

Going about their lives around us

It's only bad

when it's purely physical

When it's well planned out,

it's called 'being a genius'

We'll doubt ourselves

Ask 1000s of questions

But after it's done

we shouldn't be traced

- That's enough

-What do you want us to do?

This is Dakshinamurthy's house

That's his kid

We'll kidnap him

25 days from today

Where will we

hide him for a whole day?

Avenue no one

should know

Somewhere not

easily traceable

What's the best hide-out?

What about

General Hospital?

It'll always be crowded

No one will care even

if he screams and yells

Or even if he dies

they'll ignore and walk away

If we give him a little tablet

right here, that's enough

He'll swell up

and pass out

If someone's crying next to him

ourjob will be even easier

That's super

Only 20 days left

2 questions

Where is the venue for

'Operation kidnap'?

How do we get

the ransom money?

Definitely when

his mother is with him

Only then it'll have

the desired deep impact

And Dakshinamurthy will react

Looks like he is dead

It's a police case

Hospital is close by

Let's lift him up

Open the door

Only one day left

- Let's not take this boy

-Why this change of plan?

If we take him, we might get

caught by the auto driver

Simple...we won't kidnap

when he's in the auto

He is my neighbor

I know how his mind works

When Rs 10,000 got stolen from him

he found the guy and beat him up

Someone was planning

to kill someone else

He overheard this in

a tea shop and stopped it!

Dakshinamurthy

has saved his life

Do you think he'll keep quiet

if anything happens to that kid?

You were the one

who dangled a carrot?!

That's why

I resigned my job

I'm getting married

I've even paid advance

Our lives will be ruined,

if we get caught, is that okay?

Then let's pick

someone else

We can't just

kidnap anybody

Dakshinamurthy was ideal because

we knew everything about him

How many

can we find like him?

It's easier to murder

Kidnapping is more risky

Then let's kill

That auto guy

Then we'll take the kid

How will he stop us then?

He can't...right?

Dude, you said

these famous words!

Little courage

Lots of thought put into it

We should suspect ourselves

Even ask million questions

But once we kill, shouldn't

leave even one clue behind

Yes, let's do it

Chance of a lifetime

It's 15 lakhs each

- Let's not change our mind

- Okay, let's do it

Where is he?

Near the housing board

Somewhere here

-Who are you?

- I came to see a friend

Go...don't hover around

That's him!

Hello boss!

Aren't you Sukumar?

Siva told me

you'd come

His mother isn't well

He's taken her to the clinic

He asked you to wait upstairs

He has given me

the house key

Aren't you

the electrician?

-Yes

- Come and sit inside

Sit down

Switch on the fan

- Hey?

-What?

I locked him inside

-Who's house?

- Praveen's house

- His mother...?

- They've gone to Thirupathi

- They'll be back only after 2 days

- Holy crap! His chapter is closed

'They are 6 of them'

'They are intent

on killing me'

'They are armed'

'I can outwit them'

'I'm not too sure about

handling their guns...'

'I shouldn't panic now

I'll lose my strength if I do'

'I can shout'

'But my screams may

swing in theirfavor or mine'

'Let me think calmly'

'I should know not only

their words and actions'

'...but their thoughts too'

Where is Subramani?

He's gone to get the car

to transport the corpse

Okay...call him

Ask him to come here

Hey, we have to wait till the area

quietens and everyone is asleep

That's true but we must do it

when people are still around

Only then

we have our alibi

If we are the only people around

we will arouse suspicion

When it is dead calm

a small noise from us...

...we'll be caught

in our own trap

Before this shop

closes down...

...before the lights are down

we should kill him

Call Subramani

''In the coconut grove with swaying trees

I plucked the coconut with elan and ease''

''We seek Your graciousness

our dear compassionate Goddess''

''Accept ourtender coconut offering

Listen to our woes; our pitiful suffering''

''Grace us Goddess

with Your gracious blessing''

Leena...?

Shakthi speaking

I've told you repeatedly

not to call me late at night

This is why I didn't want

to take a phone from you

Cut the call

I am in a mess

Don't hang up

Will you disconnect

by yourself or shall I?

Just listen to me

5 minutes please

Okay

My mother will be waiting up

for me without eating her dinner

She shouldn't know about

me being in this tight spot

Just tell her I won't

be back tonight

I am working late

What's your tight spot?

You won't understand if I tell you

Will you tell me or not?

There are 4 to 5 people

waiting to kill me

Why do you do this?

When I yelled

at you tonight...

...I knew you'd come up

with some sob story like this

You must have got drunk

Nothing of that sort

Not only getting drunk...

...I'll even tell you

where and with whom!

Some terrace of

a friend's house

5 or 6 of you

2 or 3 bottles must

be empty by now

Chap next to you must be smelling

your head trying his best not to puke!

Correct?

Inform my mother

- I can't do that

-Why?

lsn't it Friday?

We are in Velachery

My grandma's house

Okay, fine

- Hey...

- Hmmmm...

Sweet dreams!

''Mariamma of Kannapuram, dear Goddess

Bless us with your divine auspiciousness''

''Mariamma of Kannapuram, dear Goddess

Bless us with your divine auspiciousness''

What happened?

There's no sound

His sound has

been silenced

Dayala, don't go...wait

Only your corpse

will leave this place!

- Subramani...?

- Tell me

Switch on all the lights

Why are you

trying to kill me?

Tell me

Let me tell you

Satisfied? Didn't you say

you intended killing him?

You will die

That's why I said so

Then we'll kidnap

Dakshinamurthy's son

You won't come

You won't be able to

Your family will be

hunting for you

I'll also join them

in their search

We've already

killed one fellow

I'm sure you know

Just hit him

I am dying of pain

Save me

Dayala, shut up

If you shout

we'll get caught

Save me

It is risky

Let's take him out

'They want to kill me'

'But they don't

want to be caught'

'They can't do that'

'I feel I can handle

their guns now'

- What happened?

- Electric shock, bro

Why couldn't you

get an electrician?

Why do you

never listen?

What's happening here?

Friends are just

having a good time

What a stupid answer

Open the doorfirst

What now?

You got drunk

whole night?!

Praveen, open the door

I'll complain

to the association

Buffalo! You have

no sense? Get lost

Your mother asked you to eat

at home, why didn't you come?

I had work, sis-in-law!

What work?! Your brother

is yelling at me...let's eat

You go...I'll be

right behind

Lets wait for him to

reach the main road

You planned well

But you can't kidnap

Dakshinamurthy's son here after

Vanu, if we let him go

we'll be in a royal soup!

Look at these rowdies

and their hooliganism

He's holding

a gun in his hands

Look! The gun is right here

Get down from the car

You mongrel! Are you

trying to trick me?!

I knew you were up

to some mischief

one more blow

Hit him

What did you

do to Nachiappan?

Did you kill him?

Answer me

Did you finish him off?

Answer me

'You are listening to

Suryan FM 93.5'

Drunk through

every pore

''Man is a beast, roams in the street

How best to tame him to retreat?''

''He's a parasite in this fast world

With what can he be eradicated?''

''Weapon is a shield to pause

Situations merely a cause''

''Know your enemy's powers

in the battle's headquarters''

''Trust your instincts''

''Believe in your best''

Yov! Stop

Don't run

I'll shoot you

Come back

and sit there

You know that auto driver

who testified in our case

He has fallen unconscious

in Velachery road

I saw someone

dragging him away

He might kill him

Is he our man?

No, sir

Auto driver got

caught (whisper)

Then I'll take care

Yes, sir

You haven't visited

our shop, do come, sir

I was out of town

regarding a case

Koli talks often about you

Bring your wife to the shop

We've got fresh stock

ofjewelry from Bombay

Yes, sir

He is not

one of our boys

But he should die, sir

Then I'll take care

I'm glad, sir

Get up

Come here

Don't finish him off here

Take him away

from the city

His body shouldn't

be seen in this area

Okay, sir

''Rely on your resources''

''Have faith in your impulses''

''Trust in yourtalent''

''Believe in your best''

Sister, don't worry

Your son will be fine

He'll stand in front of you

tomorrow morning for sure

If you ask me

she is to blame

She encouraged him to poke

his nose in other peoples' affairs

This is the consequence

you pay for interference!

Get down

Move...go inside

I just know my son

is in some danger

I don't know what

He hasn't

even called me

Maybe he hid it from me

thinking I will panic

Please somehow bring him

back to me safe and sound

I've always warned him not

to interfere in others' business

Helping others is as much

an addiction as smoking or drinking

It is difficult to

come out of that

I'll tell my boss

'Forget yourself but never

forget your mother dear'

Benny, if we leave him now

someone else will kill him

Then you'll lose that

pleasure for all times!

Let's kill him

right now

Then they'll put me behind bars

for 7 years like they did to you

I know how

to handle him

You watch over him

I'll see Kothal Rao

and be back

Year ending

I can't withdraw cash

You keep showing up

like a bad penny!

I'll inform my lawyer

He'll take care

You 'take care' of him

I'll be in for 4 months

My family needs

to be taken care of

If you can

spare something...

Wait at the basement car park

I'll send Murugesan

Velachery

Velachery

Starting now

Come soon

Velachery

Why are you

sitting so quietly?

Should a girl always be yelling?

Can't she be quiet sometime?

What did I say that

you're getting so hyper?!

Have you fought

with that chap?

Why do you ask?

He'll keep hounding you

every 10 minutes

'The number you are calling

is switched off now'

Did he come?

Did you see him?

I did

- What did he say?

- He waved to me

All you both can

do is wave hands

Ma, why did

you say that?

Nothing

Something's fishy

Tell me, maaaa!

Our previous landlady

Rani's brother likes you it seems

He wrote some exam

and got a Govt. job

They know you

They came and

asked your father

You will get a Govt. employee

husband just like you wanted

Happy?

Ma, I'm sure you are

pulling a fast one!

Tell me, ma

No, I am serious, dear

Both you and my father

are uneducated

That's why you stopped me from

going to school as soon as I fell sick

If I also marry an illiterate...

...my kids will share

the same fate as me

That's why I wanted a husband

who is an office employee

Shakthi truly

loves me, ma

He's a good chap

We won't be like you both

We'll be happy together, ma

Give me your consent, ma

Leena fall in love!

Why give him this much importance?

You could've killed him in any road?

Only a fight can be covered up

in a local police station

A murder will go up to

the commissioner's office

Then the station

will be targeted

That's why immediately after a murder

the police station should be informed

If we don't disturb the police

they won't disturb us

Benny toes the line to perfection

-Yes, Benny?

-What's that auto driver up to?

Dumb ass, shut himself inside

the shop out of sheer fright!

Bring him to

Vellaikal malai

Let go of me

Bro...Benny...bro

I didn't say a word

about you, Benny

Jain group asked me

if I'll kill some girl

I agreed

I didn't do anything else

Other than leaving you in the lurch

I haven't maligned you to anyone

Why would I interfere

with your job, bro?

Listen to me, bro

Aren't you

coming home?

I've given

Rs 20,000 to Kumar

Use it for your

expenses till I'm out

Go to your mother's house

Don't visit me in the jail

Whatever the message

tell your brother

He'll let me know

Take care of our child

Let me say bye

Don't trouble your mom

Be good, okay?

Dad will be

back soon

Okay

Body can't even be identified

Place the head near the body

Hey...open the door

Why has he locked

himself inside?

Open the door

Break open the door

Move aside

Come out

Police

Catch him

Grab him

Get on to the bike

Don't let go of him

Go...check

Let's go

Maha bro,

he is here

Come here

Where did you think

you could escape?

At the worst

to your house?

We'll even come into

your house and kill you

You should've thought

of all this earlier

Get him on

to the bike

- Benny, job over?

- No sir, in a while

When are you

giving yourself up?

Give me a day, sir

I'll surrender day after

I've spoken

to the Inspector

He has asked you to

come to a hotel in Alwarpet

- Okay, sir

- No problem

But the paper won't report

you surrendered in the court

News will appear

only 2 days later

That they caught you

Are you okay with it?

If you say so, sir

He has asked you to

bury the body there

They'll themselves

dig it out, it seems

Good evening, bro

Don't dig too deep

Only then the dog

will be able to find it

He gave us a run

for our money

Mahesh, tie his hands

- Scared?

-Why should I be?

Hey! Bring the rope

If you shut yourself

in that shop...?

It's such a battered shop

with an old wooden door

one blow will bring it down

Are you that brainless?

Did you think you could

escape that way?

Hey...hey...hey!

There's no escape out

Let him be inside

'Nothing untoward

should happen to me'

'If I die, even my mother will think

helping people only ends in death!'

'I shouldn't set

such a wrong example'

'But I'm too tired to

hit back at Benny'

'Benny should never

step into my life'

'I must first come out

of this exhaustion'

'What should I do?'

'What do I do?'

'My body needs rest'

Open the door

Hey! Open the door

Hey! Come out

He jumped off the bike and

ran like a marathon sprinter

If it wasn't a cul de sac

you'd have escaped, right?

Hey! Come here

You can see the sign of

death on his face, bro

What do you think

you are doing?

Hey...!

Oye! Go down and

dig his grave

Aim at his head

Attack him

You are dead meat

Don't try yourtricks with us

Do you think you can

get away scot-free?

Benny...Benny

Are you scared?

Don't be...you won't die

You'll be at its jaws and return

Come and see me

I'll get you an auto for rent

You can drive it and

earn a decent living

Can I use your

mobile, please?

Hello, is it 108?

Someone is almost dying

in Vellaikal malai

If you come immediately

you can save him

I got you the same number

Drink this, I'll go and

get your medicine

I'll also go with her

Do you know, my dear,

he left home 2 days back?

For 2 days and a night

they've chased him to kill him

His love for eating fruits gave him

enough strength to combat them

That's why

he is alive today

He escaped from

one chap and fainted

It seems when he opened

his eyes another chap hit him

lmagine my brother's plight

He escaped from him also

Maybe it's because

you also prayed for him

I'll be back in a bit

Your mother and sister

believed all your tales?!

What happened to you?

You drank and then turned

your auto upside down?

Your family

loves you so much

And here you are

obsessing about a girl

lmagine if you had

fallen for the wrong girl!

You had a narrow escape

because it is me

This bad habit of mine

from childhood...!

I can't bear to see anyone

suffering because of me

I thought about it really hard

If you are in such a state

just because I yelled at you...

...what will you do

if I'm not in your life?

So I decided to

reciprocate your love

Hey! I love you

I only said

I'll love you

I haven't agreed

to get married

We can date each other

If I think you are the right partner

for me, then we can get married

Otherwise I'll ditch you

Okay

Hug me

Hug means wrap

your hands around me

Hello?

Yes, sir

No, sir

My name is Shakthi, sir

Now...I'm driving an auto

at the moment, sir

I don't know

anyone like that, sir

I've never seen him, sir

I'll come and see you, sir

Who was that

on the phone?

Tell me

Royapettah

Police inspector

Why is he calling you?

An engineering college student

is hell bent on killing me

They have detained him

in the police station

I've told you

I love you, right?

Then why resort to this?!

''Know thyself''

''Trust your instincts''

''Believe you are the best''

''If push comes to shove

your best bet is...you!''
