~ 1996

It's an emergency meeting of the top order.

Highest priority.

Central minister and the Chief of RAW will also be joining us.

Subject, sir?

I think it's about Yethi.

As you already know, we are hosting the Cricket World Cup this year.

Next month is the opening ceremony.

Twelve teams and leaders from three countries are going to be our prestigious guests.

But...

Something bad is also on the way.

Gangster brothers, Daya and Yethi.

Last month, Daya's account in Dubai received funds from different Arab countries.

Large amounts.

Daya and Yethi are plotting something big at our event next month.

Intelligence is pointing to something very nasty.

Daya is not in the radar.

All his operations here are controlled by his brother, Yethi.

We need to get Yethi immediately.

Sir, we have a special task force, Shivam.

He's been monitoring Yethi operations for the past three years.

So, Shivam, what do you have regarding Yethi?

To be honest... nothing, sir.

I almost arrested Yethi three times in the past three years.

But I always received orders from the top that Yethi is not to be touched.

No, no, no. This is not the time for blame games.

Sorry, sir.

I give you full powers straight away. Go and get him.

For the past two months none of his gang members have stepped out, sir.

They might have gone underground because of this operation.

- Something needs to be done immediately. - Sir!

Next month is the event.

We have to catch Yethi before that or call off the event!

When we had Yethi in our hands, we let him slip away.

We don't even know where he is now.

Can't we track at least one of his gang members?

We have a chance.

Yethi gang's number two. Rane!

.._ _..

---

If we get hold of her, we will be able to trace him.

Would he show up?

There's a girl involved. He might take a chance.

Can we trust the girl?

We convinced her that she'll be safe if she turns him in.

He will definitely come.

There he is.

Hi, baby!

- You have finally remembered me... - Oh, my wild one!

- Do you miss me? - Yeah.

Rane!

Shoot on the legs.

Come on, shoot on the legs, boys.

Tell us where Yethi is?

Tell us. Tell us, I say.

Tell us.

Hey!

Where is Yethi?

I don't know.

Since he won't open his mouth about Yethi...

His tongue is of no use.

If we cut it off...

I will at least have some satisfaction.

- Tell me. - He's gone to the South.

Near Andhra-Tamil Nadu border...

There is a place called Ratnagiri.

There is one Muruga, a small time smuggler.

He can transport goods not only from the port but directly over the sea.

Three month ago, Yethi went there.

Tell us!

He has not returned since then.

We have no information of his whereabouts.

D.S.P Tulasi?

Please, be seated.

My name is Danny.

I am a Mumbai based smuggler.

We are expecting a consignment by the sea.

We cannot receive it at the port.

We heard a smuggler called Muruga...

...can transport consignment over the sea and came for him.

But when we reached here, they said he is no more.

When we enquired about his close people...

...we were told this area's DSP, Tulasi, was a strong support to him.

You stacked up quite a lot.

I want the same help you extended to Muruga.

Quote your price.

Tsk!

Goods from the sea waters are brought...

...neither by Muruga...

...nor me.

On the mountain that you see in the east, there are four villages.

Those four villages together are called the Red Sea.

It is they who actually pick up goods from these waters.

Who do I meet there?

Bhaira.

What do you think?

You think I cannot recognize a fellow cop?

Another thing...

Be careful with the Red sea people.

Who is it? What do you need?

I need to meet Bhaira.

We are here from Mumbai on a job.

A job only you are capable of doing.

We have a delivery coming from another country on a ship.

Mumbai is too challenging to unload the cargo.

The ship will pass through this area tomorrow night.

I know you can go into the sea and unload the cargo discreetly.

We quit doing such jobs a long time ago.

That indicates you did it in the past.

So, start again.

I will pay you beyond your imagination.

I will make your mountain drip in gold.

Listen to me and go back where you came from.

What's the matter?

My repeated requests making you complacent?

You are far away from civilization.

If I kill you right here, even your death takes a lot of time to get noticed.

Before I see your blood...

...just follow my orders. Take what I give you.

You come to the Red Sea...

...and threaten me of bloodshed?

Are you teaching us about the dangers of death?

They definitely know about Yethi.

I have to find that person and get the information.

You came to the mountain and tried to terrify them?

Who are you?

Singappa.

I lived on the east side of the mountain you just climbed down.

I have come here on a job.

You are a senior.

Can you talk them into doing it?

Come.

Take the boat out, Naga.

What's the big deal in knocking off some cargo?

This sea route is like a path to a diamond mine.

Am I a fool to believe you gave up everything?

Quote what you want and how much you want.

I will give you.

You should convince them to do it.

What say?

You want it?

This is a very expensive diamond.

If you do as I say...

...many such diamonds will be yours.

Check it out again.

Sir...

Down there... Down there!

- Down there. - What's down there, sir?

What's down there, sir?

Could you find the diamond ring?

You saw something terrifying in the sea...

...that made you forget the ring.

It is out of this fright...

...no matter how many of you show up and how much you allure us...

...that the locals from here, won't meddle with the sea.

With my eyes closed or open.

I cannot unseen what I saw in the sea.

Who exactly are they?

Who is responsible for all this?

It's quite a long story, sir.

It's the story of a sea turning red with blood.

Whose story is it?

The story of the rough waters of the mighty sea...

...on which he stood unshaken.

It's the story of our beloved 'Devara'.

DEVARA: PART 1

To overcome fear, you should listen to a god's story.

To understand fear, you should listen to the story of Devara.

Many years ago...

...behind that mountain existed a kingdom.

To conquer that kingdom, the sea had to be crossed.

But a huge army was stationed on the mountain.

A dynamic force specially chosen by the king across the country.

There was no caste. No religion.

Fear was something they never knew.

Weapon was their God.

And their weapon was courage.

Day and night they were watching the sea from the mountain.

As a testimony to the sea reddened hundreds of times with the blood of the enemies...

...this place has come to be called the Red Sea.

Kingdoms had disappeared.

When the whites from far off lands were looting...

...and carrying our wealth away across the ocean...

...the army couldn't simply watch and do nothing.

It's the story of that army ready to do anything for our country, sir.

They ventured into the sea...

...looted the ships and distributed the loot in this land.

After the British had gone...

...the country didn't need the brave warriors from the mountain anymore.

There was nobody to care for them.

These warriors on starvation...

...came in useful for some.

------

To use their strength in fearlessly charting the sea...

...a few had flocked to the mountain.

Very unlikely of you...

...to be worried sick like this. What's up, Muruga?

It's a full moon night, Tulasi.

The sea is raging...

...I am worried if they can make it without any trouble.

Whether the sea is calm or raging...

...when we have a brave warrior ready to confront it...

...why should you worry, Muraga?

Hello, sir!

Indian Coast Guard, Eastern Regional Officer, Irfan.

Ethan's Captain, John.

Warrant to search the ship.

We have information that some illegal weapons...

...and ammunition coming from Russia.

Help us search your vessels.

I see our cargo. Let's go.

Sugar, sir.

Why are the locks open?

All the officers put together, they must be ten, Devara.

There is no other way.

The smuggler gangs from foreign countries...

...who found it difficult to get their cargo through the port...

...knew the strength of these men and used them to get it directly from the sea.

Every village had its unique strength.

All the four villages got together and challenging the red sea itself...

...took up this dangerous mission.

Kids shouldn't be involved in this job.

Devara has told you enough times about this, Bhaira.

This is my land, my people and my rules.

I made this clear too enough times, Rayappa.

- Count it. - I know it will be fine.

If you eat at this hour of the day, how will the food fuel you?

Leave that aside.

If you stay up so late...

...don't you see how unhealthy it is?

I have seen it all.

That's why I can't sleep unless I see you.

With these eyes... witnessed my father's death.

I saw your father's passing too.

I watched my siblings die...

...and the death of all my close ones.

How unfortunate of me!

I spent all my life closely watching death.

I can't do this anymore, son.

Either you should see my death next.

Or I should get to see you every day.

Now that I've seen you, I can sleep peacefully.

Is Vara asleep?

Your mom doesn't fall asleep until she catches a glimpse of you.

Vara won't sleep until he hears a story from you, will he?

It was raining cats and dogs that day.

The British ransacked all our treasures...

...and were getting away in a ship.

My father...

Your grandpa...

- ...gathered all our people in a ship... - Bah!

Stop it, father.

You always narrate you father's story or his father's.

I want to know my father's story. Tell me the story of Devara.

Your father's story is not worth sharing with the next generation.

My father's is a story of his victorious fight for our country.

Ours...

...are dark stories that cannot be shared.

Sure, we are alive.

Whether our lives will change enough to become great stories for the future generations...

...is something even I don't know.

How are you, son?

Yes, I am good. How are you?

I am good.

Greetings, Devara.

Hey, how are studies going?

I am studying well, Devara. I will be done in two years.

Then I will return and start teaching here, Devara.

Please, take this.

We took a lot of help from you already. I can't accept this.

Don't call this help, Ademma.

This is our responsibility.

Your husband was one of us on the sea.

We lost him to the same sea.

His family is now our family.

Please, accept this.

After his father passed...

...though he was keen on venturing into the sea with you...

...I disapproved and sent him out to study instead.

For understanding me and helping me out...

...for being a great support, I'm much obliged, Devara.

He is your son, Ademma.

He should become what you want him to.

He will be exactly that.

- Hmm? - Hmm.

It's a weapon's ritual tomorrow.

I wonder who will win the competition this time...

...and take home the weapons.

Devara will win again if he wishes to.

Or he will voluntarily lose if he wants someone else to win.

You can root for whoever you want...

...but it's my father, Bhaira who will triumph.

This time... the weapons shall come to our land.

If Devara wants the weapons to go to your village...

...only then will Bhaira win.

Is that so?

Let's find out the winner right away. Come on, Vara.

Go on, Vara.

You show him who Devara really is. Go.

Come on, you.

Pasura, knock him down.

- Hit him, Vara. - Strike at him. Pound him.

- Give him good, Pasura. - Go for it, Vara.

Yes, Pasura, that's right. Hit him hard.

Knock him down, Pasura. Strike at him.

- Pasura, pin him down. - Hit him, Vara.

- Hit him, Vara. Go for it. - Knock him down.

Pasura, that's right. Hit him hard.

Just like that strike at him, Pasura.

Hit him hard. Knock him down, Pasura.

Beat him. Yes, take him down.

Didn't I tell you?

No matter who is in the arena, the winner will be Bhaira.

What happened?

Devara is here.

It's time for the battle. Women and kids should leave.

All of us know the village that wins the battle gets the ancestral weapons.

They have been in Devara's possession for a long time.

Let us see who gets them this year.

Let me remind you of the battle rules once again.

Only two from each village can get into the arena.

The last man standing shall be the winner.

Are you ready?

We are just four villages.

Instead of this contest...

...why don't we allow each village to possess the weapons each year?

Rayappa's village hasn't seen weapons for years now.

I would like them to get the weapons this time.

Do you think our ancestors were fools to introduce this custom, Devara?

For our ancestors, war was a livelihood.

They introduced such customs...

...to intensify the spirit of fighting, Bhaira.

It has been a long standing tradition.

We must go for the battle.

What about Rayappa's village that can only row boats and not fight battles?

If the weapons go to their village at least once...

...they too will be benefited, Bhaira.

If it bothers you so much, winning has become a habit for you.

Win it again and give it to Rayappa, Devara.

Let's begin.

Sura... Sura... Sura...

Dega... Dega... Dega...

Sura... Dega... Sura... Dega...

Hit him hard.

One man down from the West side.

Kunjara... Kunjara...

Kunjara... Kunjara... Kunjara...

One man down from the North side.

Bhaira... Bhaira... Bhaira...

Bhaira... Bhaira... Bhaira...

Knock him down.

Come on!

Kunjara...

Two contenders from the West side are finished!

Bhaira... Bhaira... Bhaira!

Devara... Devara... Devara...

Devara... Devara... Devara...

Devara... Devara... Devara...

Devara... Devara...

Bhaira... Bhaira...

Bhaira... Bhaira...

Which of the warriors will emerge as the winner was probably a matter of curiosity...

...to the sun along with the four villages.

By the time the crimson sun rose, these two would turn red from blood.

When Devara asks you something it means he has ordered you.

Rayappa...

I had a nightmare last night, Jogula.

The sea had gone red again turning into a red sea for real.

And it appeared I made it so.

The days to come are not promising, Devara.

Not everybody you think your own is trustworthy.

You should be all eyes and be very cautious, Devara.

I went home for weapon's ritual.

- I'm returning to college now. - Oh, is it?

How did the ritual go?

It went on well.

My Sivudu is no more, Devara.

He was on his way to the town...

...when they blew up the bus he was on.

I thought he would come back after finishing his studies.

This is how he came back.

Instead of going away to study...

...had the followed his heart and took to the sea with you...

...he'd still be alive.

I am the reason for my son's death.

We must have some past life connection.

Because of your association with me, my business is booming.

That's why it's about time you double the pay.

Two bags for each village.

Have I ever denied your request?

In two day's time, the ship with our cargo is crossing the Red Sea.

Those goods are highly valuable.

The coast guard has tightened the security on the sea.

Last time we somehow managed to escape.

It's best we take a break for a while.

Is this really Devara talking?

How come you are scared, Devara?

I am not scared.

I am asking you to be cautious.

The ship is already on the sea, Devara.

How can you refuse to go now?

It would be dangerous if all of us got caught with the consignment, Muruga.

We already know it is dangerous but we do it anyway.

What is this strange talk, Devara?

If something happens to one person...

...the rest of us will stand by his family.

But if it turns out bad for all of us...

...who will stand with our families, Bhaira?

In that case, we will go this time, Devara.

If something happens to us, you will protect this mountain, won't you?

Let's go, guys.

Send us a note with details of the ship and the arrangement of its cargo, Muruga.

Though you have objected, they seem ready to get into the sea.

But if you come along...

...we know we will all return safe.

Give it a thought, Devara.

Where are you coming from at this hour?

We went hunting, sir.

To hunt fish, sir.

All the heroes went together yet not much yield today.

I mean the fish.

We went in a different direction.

We couldn't catch much.

It's already quite late, sir. Usual time for sharks to come.

We better leave. You too.

Sir, there are bigger fish in here.

This is raw material used in illegal weapons, bombs and grenades.

This is what you are transporting over the Red Sea.

Do you have any idea where it goes and how many lives are lost?

This sea is a border to our country.

Whenever there was danger across this sea for any country...

...your ancestors whittled it down making this sea red and I grew up listening to this.

But... today the country faces danger...

...from you who are their descendants and from this Red Sea.

It's not like I am unaware of your heist.

It's the tale of your forefathers guarding the sea that has inspired me...

...to take up this job of watching over the sea.

Considering you're their clan resorting to petty thefts for your bread and butter...

...I remained silent which is my biggest mistake.

Do you know how many hands your smuggled goods change, and how many lives they take?

Had I stopped your work from two months ago...

...I would've saved hundreds of lives lost from that consignment.

Even a kid from your own village lost his life there.

This is what I feel looking at you.

The stories we heard of those great warriors...

...were either made up...

...or you are not from their bloodline.

Watch your words, sir.

Not words. I say the country should be watched...

Okay, sir. Okay, copy that.

Sir, we've just received a message.

You are blessed with a daughter.

A fresh life might have arrived into this place full of monsters.

But I am not sure how long it will survive.

Unless these beasts are locked up permanently...

...human beings cannot survive.

Devara...

Hey...

Stop it.

Let's go, guys.

Pick up the cargo and come.

Keep yourself alive, sir.

You have to go see your child.

You said your baby will not survive on this land of beasts.

I swear on these weapons that we worship.

I will let no harm from the Red Sea reach any child...

This is Devara's promise. Trust me.

Trust me.

What happened?

It is not my blood.

Just a blood stain.

Hey, Devara.

Did Devara go with you guys?

I know that you are all one team.

Do your counting and pick up your cargo, Muruga.

What is inside, Muruga?

Hand it to me.

What's inside?

That's one question I told you not to ask me, Devara.

Weapons.

Just like the weapons you have.

But the latest ones.

Load the goods.

You will not move the goods.

Hey, what's wrong, Devara?

What is it?

Do you want more money?

I will pay you double if that's what you want.

What do you mean we can't move the goods?

We carried these goods that killed our boy...

How many more kids might we have killed?

You said there are weapons in this like the ones we have.

Our weapons were made to protect goods from evil.

These weapons are made to kill the innocent.

You are talking too much.

Load the goods in the vehicle and go to your wife and kids.

Forget about the goods and you go do the same I say.

All these years, I gave them whatever they asked for.

Now he is getting overly pally. Huh?

From now, we are going to get huge shipments, Devara.

Be open and ask me what you want.

If your men or you approach us for this work again...

...even your dead bodies will not leave this mountain.

This is Devara's order.

If it's all about your orders...

...then what about our orders, Devara?

Because the coast guard blabbered something...

...are we going to give up our work?

We must go into the sea.

We must conquer the sea.

I have told you already, Muruga.

Whether anyone likes it or not...

Whether they participate or not... This line of work will not stop.

You said you will bring much bigger consignments.

Even if it means people dying because of them...

...or killing a number of people to get them...

This mountain is always ready.

Despite knowing what we do is wrong, we do it only to make our ends meet.

I understand only now these wrong doings have strongly seeped into our blood.

We should get rid of this filthy blood.

We must know how dishonorable this work is.

All that a man needs is enough courage to live.

Not the courage to kill.

If you disregard my word and still choose to gather that courage...

...I will become a terror killing that courage.

When Devara asks you something, it means he has ordered you.

When he actually orders you...

You were not responsible for his death, dear.

It was me.

I don't have the courage to look into your eyes and say this.

Hence I am looking down at your feet and telling you this.

I cannot fix my mistake and bring your son back to life but...

To face Devara who was preventing wrongful activities on the sea...

...Bhaira found a solution in the sea itself.

Why did you do such a thing?

Did I not come across your mind even once?

When I hear about how much you struggle to get this blind sister married...

...I am not able to live with it, brother.

If I am dead...

...you may grieve me for a few days.

But I won't be a burden to you anymore, brother.

How can you be a burden to me?

I will take care of you all my life...

I will take care, Rayappa.

I want to get your sister married to my younger brother.

Bhaira...

Are you serious?

Your family is my family too, Rayappa.

Without any delay, make the arrangements, Rayappa.

What Devara did on the mountain is still driving us mad!

Here you are negotiating a wedding and celebrating it, Bhaira!

We will not be able to stand Devara at the wedding.

We hung around all this while.

Won't you at least have a last look at him?

In fact, true celebrations will begin with his death at this wedding.

You want to confront Devara and kill him?

Even before he could get a proper moustache, Devara ripped apart a shark in the sea...

...and dragged it to the shore.

As long as he is conscious, no one would dare...

...go near and touch him, Bhaira.

Oh! Rayappa! Come in.

My younger sister's wedding is fixed, Devara.

You mean Padma's?

Who is the groom?

Bhaira's brother.

He was generous enough to come home with the proposal.

What great news you have brought, Rayappa!

When is the wedding?

Planning it for the day after.

She holds you in higher regard than me.

Don't bother about Bhaira and all of you should come.

She is like a sister to me, Rayappa.

Don't be so formal with your invitation.

I will be there to send her off heartily.

Devara?

- They look good as a couple. - Yes.

They compliment each other, right?

What's up, Thanga? What are you looking at?

Do you want to get married too?

There are many suitable matches for you around here.

Let us know if you like somebody. I will marry you off on the same stage.

With so many suitors around, why are you eyeing my husband?

Why don't you see eye to eye?

As soon as I invited Devara is here.

He came in the end like a distant relative.

Kept himself distant too.

We considered you family and came early. We have downed three pots already.

Whatever I did is for our own good.

This is not our only way to live.

If we put our heads together, we will find ample other ways.

Please listen to me this one time, Bhaira.

As long as you exist, this mountain shall obey only your orders, Devara.

It's a promise from me.

Devara is dancing away to glory, Padma.

How many outsiders are expected?

Apparently up to fifty. Since it's Devara...

Do you think they can do it?

Hey, Devara is completely drunk.

You don't need to fight him to kill.

Once he gets intoxicated and collapses, just kill him.

Bhaira, what's going on?

I heard them say wicked things.

He is the one with wicked words and wicked actions.

This is not right, Kunjara.

It's our Devara.

As long as I am alive, I won't let this happen.

If this wedding is called off, your sister will die.

Devara's life? Or your sister's life?

If you remain silent just for tonight...

...tomorrow... you can cry over his corpse for a while.

Or your sister will die and you will end up crying every day, Rayappa.

Tell him that a gang at Mandapala shore is secretly setting out to loot.

You make sure he leaves from here.

Hey, Rayappa. Come and join.

Why the tears, Rayappa?

You must send off your sister with happiness.

Isn't this what we have all been waiting for?

With the wedding happening here...

...some are ready to venture into the sea without being noticed.

They are setting out from the Mandapala shore.

I had a nightmare last night, Joguta.

The sea had gone red again turning into a red sea for real.

And it appeared I made it so.

Eyes that knew nothing but courage...

...for the first time ever...

...were filled with fear.

Was it those dead bodies that I found in the sea?

Husband...

Get up.

Oh my... What happened to you?

Husband...

Kora...

Kora...

Has Devara killed them?

Has he killed them all?

Though you got bold enough to get unlawful, I thought I could reform you with words.

But now I see you have turned into fearless and uncontrollable beasts.

If visible, you won't fear even God or the devil.

So, just like them, I choose to be an invisible fear from today.

If you forget fear and go into the sea on your crooked jobs again...

...I will lay you down on the shore just like this.

This is Devara's oath!

-----

It's been two years since Devara set off into the sea.

The stillness and silence... had somehow reduced the fear.

They had lived like sharks...

Their pride stood in the way of turning into fishermen.

But on Bhaira's assurance...

...a few did venture into the sea again.

Like a tempest born out of the sea, Devara had probably pounced upon them.

Watching the half dead come afloat to the shores...

...the mountain had its heart in the mouth.

They took to the sea again.

However, it wasn't for the cargo this time.

It was for sustenance.

Fishing became their livelihood.

Meanwhile, the women in his family kept waiting for Devara, counting minutes.

Adamantly trying to make Devara appear...

...in the weapon ritual conducted every year...

...Bhaira killed one or two from Devara's village...

...and made a couple more bed ridden.

From that year the celebrated fight at the weapon ritual has been stopped.

But Devara didn't return to the mountain.

To put an end to Devara and the fear he infused...

...taking a few kids of the mountain under his wing...

...Bhaira wanted to mold a generation into a fearless army.

Twelve long years had passed.

Bhaira ingrained the minds of his young army with the belief that Devara was their only target.

As you have instructed.

I saw Devara in him every minute and spilled his blood, Bhaira.

When you are in the arena...

...you must see Devara in your opponent...

...and make him shed blood.

How many times have I told you that?

He dropped to the ground so...

Also he is someone who grew up with me, Bhaira.

He only grew up with you.

But he was raised by me.

Samara born to Kunjara, the dead leader of the west...

...was waiting for Devara who caused his father's death...

...is a fully grown man now.

Every day he would go to Devara's home to check on his old mother...

...because some day the lady would die of old age and...

...Devara would visit her...

...and finally Devara would come under his knife.

Why didn't you come to collect the money this month?

When will you stop going to Devara's house?

Whenever you send us to the sea to kill Devara.

In order to kill Devara...

...not only do we need perfect timing.

...but also a perfect weapon.

Is that Vara coming?

He is coming with a shark.

While coming from the Hawk mountain, we had this shark attacking our boat.

No matter how much we tried we couldn't subdue it.

Vara jumped into the sea, held it down...

...and brought it to the boat dead.

Just like Devara. Vara killed that shark and pulled it ashore.

What are you all looking at?

Are you in shock how Vara killed the shark?

Once I jumped into the sea...

...I could see nothing except this aggressive shark.

I tore apart its fins...

...punched through its ribs, and pulled away its jaws.

Slowly it breathed its last in my hands.

What are you staring at?

You think I found a dead shark on some shore...

...and tying it to my boat I brought it here?

Believe it or not, I don't care.

What a guy!

He couldn't hold up and blurted out the truth.

Devara's son should be a warrior.

How can Vara be so useless?

Did they ask you about it?

Why were they staring at me as if I am incapable of killing a shark?

Of course. Knowing you too well, they would.

You were so eager to tell them you brought a dead shark from another shore...

...even before they asked you.

- Move it now. - Hey, Vara!

I saw the ladies of your house on the Pearl shore.

They were talking to someone who claims he saw Devara's belongings.

Hey, we heard you said you saw Devara in the shell mountain last night.

Did you see for sure?

I went to that mountain this morning to collect wood.

There were traces of cooking in one spot.

Devara was probably there in the night...

What else did you see?

Tell us the truth.

Did you see Devara?

No, my lady. There were human foot prints though.

No one would dare go there at that hour.

I am quite certain it was Devara who spent the night there.

Let's go home.

- Last night... - Let's just go home.

Come in.

Everybody in the village thinks you guys are mad.

Do you think your son is gone missing?

You are searching for him as if you lost him in a fair!

If it was on a job that he left, he would return once it is done.

Your son left because he was hell bent upon his vow.

He will not--

Don't say he will not return.

This body will drop dead right now.

Every single day...

...I survive on the hope that he would return.

Even the sea that your son ventured into hits the shore every day.

Years have passed.

Has he come even once to visit?

He visits me in my dreams every night.

Crossing over them someday...

...won't he stand right before my eyes?

He will return.

He will return for sure.

I can understand grandma. What's wrong with you?

Are you not yet done with somebody who has abandoned his family?

Devara didn't abandoned his family when he left.

Because he felt these four villages were his family, he left.

Like Kunjara's son and Devara's...

...Bhaira's son, Pasura, too, grew up to be a man.

I will come back next month.

You are not letting go of Chandrakala.

Are you going to be with her forever, Pasura?

No way!

This is only until I get Rayappa's daughter, Thangam.

I can't wait till she is mine.

Hey, Seenappa. Heard your girl got a marriage alliance?

I wanted to talk to Thanga regarding this matter.

Why should you talk to Thanga about it?

Did she find you the match?

Find the match? Well, she set it on fire.

My would be son-in-law was at the tailors yesterday and saw your daughter, Thanga.

She looked at him coyly, blushed and smiled.

Assuming Thanga likes him...

...he wants us to postpone tomorrow's event of fixing the wedding day.

I need to find out what all this is about. Call her out.

This is something ladies should discuss and resolve.

Let's get out of here.

I can sort this myself. Thanga... Thanga!

You have wrecked my daughter's life...

...and you are happily washing your hair?

Huh? I didn't wreck her life. In fact, I saved her from misery.

My smile made him drool and he asked you to stop the wedding with your daughter.

Just imagine...

Had he seen me like this, he would have left her even after marriage.

How is he a good match?

Please, go explain this to your daughter clearly.

I don't think she will let any girl of her age get married.

Have her under control or this will cause a lot of problems.

Thanga, how many will you try this on?

What will you get out of ruining everybody's alliance?

Mom! What do our girls from the village actually want?

Everybody wants a simple and uncomplicated husband.

But I want a macho man for myself.

Thanga wants a warrior who will make her erupt.

If I miss someone like that and he becomes someone else's what would happen to me?

If the other girls wait till I find my man, what do they have to lose?

Hmm?

Why are they so spoilt?

You hit me because my hand touched you? Because you lay your hand on me.

It will be my hands on you someday anyway.

How many times do I tell you, Seenu?

That I will consider you only if I don't get Vara?

Can you not wait a bit for me?

His family is pressurizing him to marry his cousin.

Once he is clear about you, he can give her some clarity too.

Hey, Metta!

With the sun kissing my hair every day on the sea, my hair has turned red.

Does it look fine?

When you should be turning red with smooches from girls...

...you talk about the sun kissing or the moon! What nonsense is this?

What are you mad about?

What happened? Why are you angry?

- Nothing new. - Uncle, one tea.

He saw Valli and went to fool around with her.

She said she won't decide until things get clear from your end.

Come to a conclusion about that girl, Thanga and our lives will get some clarity.

Till then Valli will have her eyes on you.

Knowing she likes me, how can you marry her, man?

She only has her eyes on you. She is not on you, right?

Yuck! Disgusting fellow!

What is disgusting about being romantic?

Hey, Chennamma! Hasn't your grandson recovered yet?

Are you still using medication?

If the bane on this village is lifted, there will be no more illness.

Medicine is not going to help.

Without using medicines, why carry such stupid superstitions?

What did I say? Why does the old lady glare at me?

If Devara were here...

...he would win the weapon contest and while carrying the weapons on his head...

...he would cleanse the hamlet of its bane and bewitchment.

That's her belief.

Someone born of such noble blood is ignorant of the value of weapons...

...and it's our bad luck. That's what her look says.

If the west side dwellers come, give them the boat and collect money.

I heard Chitranga made a big ruckus.

Strangely, instead of marrying Vara, you are looking everywhere else.

He only got his dad's looks. Not his courage.

Oh, really?

He is always so naive and timid.

How can I get along with him?

When I see my man even from a distance...

- Thangamma, from deep inside, must... - ...erupt and overflow.

Thanga, if you don't decide about Vara, things are getting complicated.

That guy Metta Seenu is fiddling with me wherever he finds me.

Huh! Why didn't you slap him?

How could I slap him?

If she suddenly takes a fancy to Vara and takes off with him...

...Seenu will be my only option.

Then you should give him your consent. How could I?

If she ends up disliking Vara, won't he fall between the cracks?

Damn!

How disgusting! If she turns down Vara...

...you want to go ahead with him.

If she accepts Vara, Seenu is waiting to warm up to you.

- Bah! - How would you understand this, sister?

Just a year after your coming of age, you were married off.

You can afford to say anything.

We are in our youth but sadly with no companion.

When they were returning from fishing on the sea...

...a shark had leapt onto their boat...

...and Vara apparently jumped into the sea and killed it with his bare hands.

Who? Was it our Vara?

Exactly. Apparently, he also dragged the dead shark to the shore himself.

He has it in him.

He definitely has it in him. I knew it.

He does have something I know him since we were kids.

Hmm.

He has it in him.

Oh, my goodness!

Watch him walk like a champion.

I am thrilled and enthralled from within.

Hi, Thanga, how are you?

I heard you jumped into the sea...

...killed a shark with your bare hands and dragged it to the shore?

Your vigor, your valor... I know about them.

What you saw is nothing.

There is a lot more to see.

Looks like they are both a thing.

It's just the two of us now.

I wanted to gift that boat to my future husband.

It got fully done only today.

Do you like it?

Sure it looks nice.

How come... you've shown up here?

I could have come, had you called me.

I have come for Rayappa.

My goodness!

Have you gone to the extent of talking to my dad about us?

- Take this. - Okay, Rayappa.

What brings you here, Vara?

Uh, our weapon's ritual is approaching...

...I wanted to speak to you about it.

What do you mean weapon's ritual?

Oh, my goodness!

I might run out of breath today.

My knight is getting ready for weapon's ritual.

Are you planning to get into the arena?

What are you saying? Have you got drunk early morning?

Why will I get into the arena?

- They will kill me. - That's what I thought.

Hey, Thangan...

Oh, no! What happened, Thanga?

Remove your hand.

Go away.

Damn!

Everybody is sad our village hasn't received weapons since long.

May be we should go to Bhaira and plead with him...

...to give us the weapons without a contest this time.

I am too scared to go to him alone.

I was hoping you would accompany me.

We can go.

- Remove your hand. - Why is that?

The link is broken there.

Let me not break my slipper.

I knew it.

I knew he doesn't have it in him.

I knew he is not right for me from when we were kids.

I knew there is nothing in him.

What is he staring at, Rayappa?

Is it about how these trees emerged from the water?

What made you come here, Rayappa?

That too with a cub in company.

It's been years since weapons reached their village.

They are sad that nothing good is happening there.

You know weapon's ritual is approaching.

If you can hand us the weapons this year...

...we will keep them in our village, and give them back.

Whichever village wants the weapons, Devara would represent that village...

...fight and win the weapons for them.

You are his son and you are begging for the weapons?

How many times have I told you?

I am not like him.

Please, accept me as I am.

Am I not one among you?

I request you to give us the weapons just this one time.

We were inside for nine minutes.

Instead of coming to me, go to the sea...

...and say, "Our village has no hero or a valiant man. So, please, come."

Bellow and call him.

May be that will make you father enter the arena for your sake.

Are we closing this with a celebration like every year?

Or is there a fight?

If the ladies and children leave, we are ready to fight.

Get the arena ready, guys.

Hey, wait up.

Ranga... Ranga... Ranga...

Vara... Vara... Vara... Vara...

Ranga... Ranga...

Vara... Vara... Vara... Vara...

Vara... Vara... Vara...

Vara... Garuda... Garuda... Vara...

Vara... Vara... Vara...

Vara... Vara... Vara...

Hit him hard. Come on.

We are done with both the contenders from West side.

Hey...

Huh!

I will see that he is no more.

Is it enough to pin him down?

Or should I bury him?

Defeat is worse than death.

Defeat, his cry of pain...

...should reach Devara all the way.

Sena... Sena... Sena... Sena...

Sena... Sena...

Huh...

Strike him down.

Tsk!

Vara... Vara... Vara...

Hit him hard.

Vara... Vara...

Yay! Yes!

Vara... Vara... Vara...

Huh! Damn!

We finished two per village, Bhaira.

We are done with the fight.

The weapons will remain in front of your house.

Watching them, you should get up soon and walk, Varada.

Have you heard what happened, Rayappa?

Vara drugged everyone at the weapon's ritual and won the competition.

When we know it all, why are we still having this discussion? Huh?

Just give me a nod.

I will go to his village, knock him down and bring back the weapons.

Tell me what we should do to him, Rayappa?

It's better to forget it as if nothing happened, Bhaira.

If they fell because of the drug...

...they should be sober by this morning.

But they are not even up from their beds.

During the weapon's ritual, you only saw timidness in his eyes.

But I saw the technique in his fists.

I saw Devara-like strength in him.

Unaware of his own strength...

...he tried to win by drugging everyone because of his innocence.

In a way that's the best for all.

It's good enough that there is one Devara on the sea.

Making another Devara on the mountain...

...will do you no good, Bhaira.

Husband and liquor have a special connection.

I just don't understand.

How can he win by sedating everyone?

Sister, I imagined my husband to be as mighty as the sea...

This guy...

...seems like a small wave that touches the shore. Hmm!

I am your senior with a lot of experience. Take my advice.

Every woman has a heartthrob...

...different front the one she marries.

If you can see your heartthrob in the man you marry and save your marriage...

...life can get surprisingly pleasant.

How is that possible?

When Thanga looks at her man, she should erupt and overflow from inside.

What nonsense! Stop it right there.

Leave him alone, if you don't like him. I will take care of him.

I still have hopes on him somehow.

What are you hoping for?

You want someone like Devara and he doesn't exist on this mountain.

Should I just wait till Devara returns and marry him?

Hey, have you lost your mind?

Tsk! What do I do then?

My dear Thanga...

...we don't get whatever we want.

We must mold whatever we get and hone it to perfection.

Unless you ignite a desire in him to marry you...

...why would he try to be your knight or warrior?

What is Thangam?

How great is her beauty!

He should see it.

And get tantalized.

If everyone is sharpening their weapons...

...I guess it's time to put them to use.

We are waiting with all heart for your approval, Bhaira.

Are we going to the sea to fight him anytime soon?

Bhaira...

The coast guard authorities have opened up jobs for expert swimmers to help them in the sea.

I heard the pay is excellent too.

We could make good use of the training you gave us all these years.

If you give us the nod, all of us will find jobs on the sea, Bhaira.

Are all these years of my teaching and practice meant for this?

Or for Devara?

When we get busy with our jobs, Devara will have no job to do, Bhaira.

Take time till tomorrow to think.

How can you give in to his words, Bhaira?

I have kept him with me since he was a kid.

I wanted him to reach my heights.

But time and again...

...I see more and more traits of Devara in him.

Where did I fall short?

You gave us everything.

You are our everything.

We are just like you, Bhaira.

Though he grew up with us...

...for a while we could see only Devara in him, Bhaira.

How are you, Bhaira?

How come you called for me after a long time?

It's time to get into the sea again.

The army I have raised over the years, is ready to enter the sea...

...quell any level of danger and carry the cargo to the shore.

What about Devara?

Along with your consignment...

...his head will be brought too.

Bhaira, Bhaira...

I cannot dare do that as long as Devara is alive.

If something goes wrong, I will lose my consignment.

There is a good chance he will end my life too.

Unless we get into the sea for the cargo, why would Devara show up?

How will they kill him?

Could be true...

But I am not taking that chance.

Draw Devara out somehow and send me word you got rid of him, Bhaira.

I will get a new consignment every week and bring back glory to this mountain.

But only if you kill Devara.

Muruga says he will not procure shipments unless Devara is dead.

For that to happen...

...Devara must be brought out.

And hence Bhaira spread a rumor for it.

Everybody in our village thinks Devara is not alive anymore.

I heard about it too. Nobody has seen him till now.

Even his family hasn't seen his face.

It seems quite true.

The West and the East dwellers say Devara is no more.

I that true?

Those North side and some of our own are saying the same.

Even I doubt if Devara is alive.

Having heard what she feared most all her life...

...his mother's health deteriorated and they took her to Jogulamma's for treatment.

It is not medicine that will cure her, Vara.

This is the angst of a mother.

She cannot fully recover unless she sees her son, Devara.

Knowing too well Devara would turn up before his sick mom got worse...

...Bhaira with his men surrounded Jogulamma's house day and night.

We have been waiting for him for the past three nights.

Do you think he will show up, Bhaira?

He has to come at least for his mother.

Devara...

Devara...

----

----

- Hey... - Bhaira.

Devara was here.

We must finish him before he leaves the mountain.

Everybody on the mountain got to know that Devara had paid a visit.

How is he doing?

Good as always.

Slightly, his hair has gone grey. That's all.

Why do we care?

Why should we care how he is?

Are you still not through with him after all these years?

He came to see the old lady as a formality not out of love for us.

When will you understand he will not return for you and me?

Damn!

Bhaira who was fuming because Devara was almost under his sword but got away again...

...had another opportunity knocking at his door.

When Devara, who should have charged at you the moment he saw you...

...sneaked away from you instead...

...it became obvious he has lost his vigor.

A ship containing our consignment will pass by the Red Sea this coming week.

Are you and your troops ready for this, Bhaira?

As you promised, along with the shipment make sure you bring Devara's head too, Bhaira.

Coming Saturday, Bhaira.

Bhaira, overwhelmed by the prospect of going back to the sea after years...

...had to confront an unanticipated incident.

What happened? What's wrong, Bhaira?

What happened to your hand?

Out of fear for fighting Bhaira in the sea...

...Devara must have done this.

His plan better not work, Bhaira.

Last night...

...I know it was you who did this.

Bhaira...

Though you lost your father, I treated you like my own son.

How dare you!

As a kid, since the moment I saw my dad's body lying on the shore...

...I haven't had good sleep.

I have been hankering to kill him, wash my hair with his blood...

...and get my revenge!

But if you get into the sea and face Devara...

...his death will be on your plate.

The one who killed Kunjara...

...should be killed by this son of Kunjara's.

If that should happen, you must refrain from coming.

Hmm!

In order to kill Devara, it is not strength that you need Bhaira.

This is good enough.

Every one of us going there has more than we need.

Coming week when we venture into the sea...

...even if we see Devara from a mile away, we shall kill him and return.

What happened, Uma?

I am scared, mom.

I went into the forest for henna, and Bhaira's men stopped me on my way back.

Move aside.

How brave of you!

Not a trace of fear in your voice.

Because you are Devara's daughter, is it?

They said, "Your dad, Devara, will be dead soon.

Once he is dead, one of us will take you each day."

We shall take out all our pent up anger on your mother and you each night.

There is a man in your house for sure.

But no way he can save you.

"It is beyond your brother's ability to protect you..."

"Neither can the locals do something..."

They were talking all this rubbish.

And I feel like dying, Mom.

Nobody from this mountain will ever dare touch Devara's daughter.

But if it does happen...

...like you suggested, we will all drink poison and die.

What's up, Vara? Why are you here?

Did your sister come and complain to you?

I wish she told me.

But she went crying to my mother and told her.

She didn't consider me man enough to take her problems to.

You are a coward who can't win a contest without sedating others!

Why will they consider you a man or a hero?

Even I am drunk right now.

For the spite in me to thrash you...

...me to thrash you, whether my intoxication will help it or hinder, why don't you see?

Vara is here, Singappa.

What were you upto last night?

Bhaira's men were troubling my sister.

I drank some to build courage and bashed them up.

Huh?

Yes, I got drunk and beat them. What about it?

One is found dead from your beating.

How can they be dead?

It wasn't me, Singappa.

Just like you we have been oblivious to your strength.

You lived as a coward around us.

But we should have knew that you are Devara's blood.

We are on lash by the other village because you killed Bhaira's men.

If you take the lead we are ready to kill them all, Vara.

Have you gone mad?

Keep calm and get to work.

I will go and explain myself to Bhaira.

Go now.

I really don't know how they died, Bhaira.

If I said I am capable of killing, would you believe it?

I drag a dead shark to the shore and claim it as my kill. Such is my courage.

I spike everybody's drink and win the weapons. Such is my courage.

You should at least wonder how I could do this, Bhaira.

He spoke disrespectfully to my sister and I got angry and slapped him.

But how can you hold me responsible for his death?

You must convince everyone that I am one of you, Bhaira.

Though you are Devara's son, you are not his man.

For everyone to believe that you are one of us...

...you must join hands with our people and do what they do.

After many years, tonight...

...you peers are venturing into the sea.

They are going to fight your dad and bring the consignment.

Vara!

If you join them, from tomorrow you will become one of us and stay safe.

You want to go to the waters guarded by Devara.

If something goes wrong, I will not be able to handle it, son.

I thought you were feeling me out of love.

Is it out of fear of my death that you are overfilling my plate?

You are all praise about the man who killed your husband!

Am I born to Kunjara or Devara?

You seem to be in quite a good mood today.

Oh, I heard you are setting out to the sea tomorrow.

If Devara does something to you, we cannot meet again. I that why?

Nobody likes that Vara who killed our man is sent along with us, Bhaira.

It wasn't Vara who killed him.

It was me.

Without me...

...it is not as easy as Kunjara's son thinks it is to kill Devara.

With Vara being a part of this team...

...Devara will be caught in startlement.

It is for this reason I killed our guy last night...

...and brought Vara to his knees before me.

What are you worried about?

Are you stressed about what to do if your dad shows up?

Hold this. If you have to face Devara, it will come in useful.

Why would I need this? I don't want it.

Are you confident you will kill him without using this?

Come on, Devara.

Hey! Hang on, guys.

It's not Devara...

...it's a shark.

Devara is here.

Tonight, we go back only with Devara's head in our hands.

Come on!

Singappa!

Singappa!

Along with Kunjara's son and Bhaira's, Vara has secretly gone to the sea to steal.

They are defying Devara, Singappa.

Those beasts must have filled my son's ears.

And believing them like a lamb, he must have joined their herd.

Please, do something and stop him, Singappa.

You know my husband, Devara, better than I do.

Will he spare a wrongdoer even if it is his own son?

In spite of my incessant pleading, why doesn't anyone say a word?

Have you also joined hands with them?

Acting like our own...

...are you also trying to kill Devara?

All of you who are resorting to forbidden activities...

...including Vara, his own son, will not be spared by my husband, Devara.

Your husband left all of us a long time ago, dear.

Our Devara left us and hurried to God long ago.

Guarding the sea all these years forbidding all from committing a crime...

...is not your husband, Devara.

It is your son, Vara.

He grew up listening to the stories from Devara.

To hold this mountain in fear, he scripted a big story that Devara is alive.

Did you think influenced by those beasts he followed them like a lamb?

That's not true.

Those who took him making him a pawn are the lambs.

By now, in the sea...

...your son must be hunting them down like a monster!

Since you don't know him...

...it might seem he has gone into the sea.

But to us who have been watching him for years...

...he himself appears to be a mighty sea.

Not them.

Go slay your dad, Devara, and bring him.

Who? Me?

Yes!

Now that you heard of Devara's death, I can imagine your anguish tonight, dear.

But your son's dance of fury on the red sea to keep Devara's promise...

...will make you forget your pain.

Twelve long years ago...

...on the same shore...

...spotting people hanging from a boat, a generation had come to a halt.

Now finding these man on this boat, another generation must come to a halt.

Will another generation grow up bravely without fear, Singappa?

Even if somebody thinks of entering the sea again...

...if would remain a dream.

The waves that saw your play, will testify it, Vara.

I went with them to confront Devara.

To keep the story I wrote alive...

What are you saying, Vara?

You want me to drive this weapon into you and watch your blood flow?

To do that and to watch it...

...this old heart is too weak to bear the pain.

This weapon is the God we worship, Singappa.

Believe that it will do good to the mountain and go ahead.

Do it.

I cannot do this, Vara.

Singappa...

Singappa!

Don't mind the pain in my eyes, Singappa.

See only the fear in everyone's eyes tomorrow.

The sea that has only witnessed weapons and blood...

...probably broke into tears for what Vara did.

It reached out to touch his feet that day.

Who was capable of killing Devara?

Who could drive a knife through Devara?
