Original subtitles

Satheesh, please ask him to be patient.

It's not like I will leave the country right?

Yes, let's meet.

We'll meet tomorrow…

It's just this one problem.

We will find a solution…

What can we do with regards to this?

Sir… we are consulting with a senior structural engineer sir.

Haven't you been saying the same thing for the last six months?

Sir, the water logging was an unexpected issue right…

If two drops of rain fell and the building sank, what shit work have you guys done there?

Please think of a solution as to how we can sort this mess out.

It's not like we can keep travelling all the way here on a daily basis.

What is it chettayi?

Just when you think things can't get worse...

Sir, take a look at that.

Look at this!

Looks like fresh prints.

It's new.

Please hold this.

Sir, water…

Thank you.

Tomorrow, let's check out Periyar.

Oh sir, I won't be available tomorrow.

Why is that?

I need to go home.

Hasn't Roy come?

He should be here now. He didn't answer my call.

Called him, but he didn't answer.

When I messaged him on WhatsApp he replied with a thumbs up.

(A prayer for the departed soul)

Amen.

Here Chettayi, give this to him.

Chettayi, bottoms up!

Whooo! What is this stuff?

This is 'Taika' Chettayi.

Taika?

You remember Madathil Arun? He brought it when he came down from Canada.

What? He is in Canada?

He was a boy who worked on our plantations.

Come on, come down.

No, I don't want to.

Come on…

Roy...

How do you survive without a proper job?

By leeching off dad!!!

Stop it chettayi.

I have a respectable job.

Yeah right. Do you earn enough to date Varghesettan's daughter at least?

What?

Oh! There's something like that going on?

What nonsense chettayi. You sound like a gossiping uncle!

She's just a good friend of mine!

I am not just your brother, I am the local CI as well.

Don't try to play your tricks with me.

Stop it ettayi…

If you are going to bathe, do it.

Pass me the beef roast.

It's been ages since we sat together as a family for a meal.

True, we need to meet up more often.

How about we make Dad's birthday this year a grand celebration?

That's a good idea...

What for? To partition my assets?

Dad, why are you so adamant about staying here alone? Can't you move in with us?

Why are you being so stubborn?

Who is here if you need help?

Ha… Such affection!

Try the beef. It tastes good.

They rang me several times but I didn't answer the call.

Shall we go? Come home some time…

Okay Ettayi.

Dad, I'm leaving.

Grandpa, we'll see you later.

Chettayi...

Granddad...

Okay, then....

'Ouseppinte Osiyathu' [Ousepp's Will]

There's a PTA meeting on Friday.

Amma will come with you.

No need.

Why is that?

You come this time.

Why? Have you created some issue at school?

Kind of.

Will they crucify me?

Nope. It's not that bad.

Hmm… I'll come.

Thank you, papa.

Fooling around is fine, but don't let it affect your studies.

Are you coming to eat or not??

Is Mummy in anger mode this morning?

What happened?

No idea!

It's dosa, super.

Hello, what happened?

Don't make me say anything!

Tell me what it is.

You'll stay here with your darling Dad, in this one horse town all your life!

Oh that's the issue!

I've ruined my life staying here.

What are you staring at? Eat!

Annie, you know I said that yesterday just to butter up dad.

You calm down, we'll figure things out.

Figure it out! I've been hearing that for years!

Oh! It's already 9:30. Hurry up, eat fast.

It's pointless.

Don't mind that, you eat.

- How much is it? - Fifty Rupees

Chettayi, you don't realise the kind of difficulties I'm having...

Keep that down there.

I need to get my daughter married off.

You know we still live in a rented house.

Vakil, please tell him I will withdraw the case.

Paapi, You think I'm scared because you filed a case against me?

Our father gave us both equal shares.

And then...

The share that you got,

You squandered away not just the land but your house as well, didn't you?

What I have was built with my blood and sweat,

and I'm not giving you a penny from that.

Vakil, heard that?

Did you hear his justification!

What can I say in this Paapi?

You don't have to say much. Just make sure you stand by what is right.

That, I definitely will.

Don't think you will get a single penny from me! Get lost!

Leave!

No wonder you are stuck alone in your old age.

Ousepetta, let go of old grudges.

He is going through a hard time.

Our Sony's wedding right. That will fall in place.

Measure it from about 1.5 metres from the side of the tree.

Show that...

It's 2.5

Set up the next point. I'll be right back.

Varghese, I told you when you called that it's pointless meeting me in person right?

Sir, Joy only had permission to dig a pond in that place and now he is running quarry

Either way he is working with a licence right. So there's nothing I can do to stop him.

Uh… Sir, but it's a license to dig a pond right...

It's not to run a quarry, right?

If he says he can make a pond there only by breaking the rocks, what can I do?

It's all quirks of the law right?

Sir, is there any solution?

My advice would be to go and meet the collector.

File a complaint with him.

This is above my pay grade, it's not like I'm avoiding helping.

Mary chechi, where's Varghesettan?

He's up there.

Okay

Go ahead.

Where's your father?

In the backyard.

Varghesetta, how come you are washing your vehicle in the rain?

Oh! Roy... It's you

The vehicle was really dirty.

What's the update?

Oh that, don't think anything will happen there.

Your brother says there are way too many legalities

involved in trying to shut down the quarry.

Not having a bribe in hand must've been the reason.

The day I shut down that loser's quarry is the dayI will have two pegs in peace!

What are our next steps?

We've stepped out to shut him down right?

Won't stop till we shut him down.

We'll get it done somehow even if it means going to the Supreme Court.

We'll shut him down.

What? No, they are with me right now.

I'll talk to them.

I'll sort it out.

I'll tell them, Nairetta

I'll tell them, yes.

Sir, a maximum of two months, that's all we can push to make the sale.

After that we will lose the advance we've paid.

And I'm telling you, if that happens I'll thrash you.

Sir, please don't drag me into this.

The deal is between you and Nair.

We know Satheesh.

Some of our family funds got blocked. Once that issue is cleared we are sorted.

Get that deal sorted at the earliest...

else I will be the one sticking the property seizure notice at your house!

Chettayi, I told you we shouldn't have called this bugger!

My dear sir can you please stay quiet for a little while?

We're already standing on a bed of nails.

I'm standing on even bigger nails... do you understand that?

You people can solve this easily with your father's help.

What kind of a father is he?

You will have to wait a little longer.

We'll figure a way out in that time.

Good for you if you do!

Listen up.

No matter what happens here today, we shouldn't

let a single one of his lorries to get past us!

Today, we don't leave from here till we sort this problem out.

Whatever happens we won't let the lorries through, that's it.

They're coming.

No need for ruckus, we'll just explain our stand.

Everyone stop forward, let's block the road.

Stop!

Stop! Stop! Stop! Stop!

Stop!

These vehicles are not going beyond this point.

Don't want to hear what you have to say.

Come on, get out of the vehicle.

Stand aside from the vehicle.

We aren't going to allow that.

You, get out of the vehicle.

Come on get down.

Stop, Stop the car.

Stop!

What is it Varghese? What's the problem?

Joey, You cannot take these rocks from here.

Who are you to decide what I should or shouldn't do?

This quarry isn't your father's property.

Let's find out whose father's property it is.

Ya. Let's see .

Let's see.

Where do you think you are going? You aren't getting into the car.

Get out of my bloody way.

[Indistinct chatters]

Roy, this guy has been doing his doing what he wishes for some time now.

Stop it.

It's been a while since you guys have been messing with me.

There's a limit to everything.

Hey, hey, hey, hey.

What's going on here??

Sir, I am not breaking any laws here.

They are creating unnecessary issues. Please make them understand.

You go on your way.

Get out of the way everyone! Move!

How is that fair sir?

Give us a solution here, now.

We policemen are here to uphold the law. Move aside!

Chettayi, if you've taken their bribe, show your gratitude there, not here!

Put him in the jeep.

Move!!

Varghese, don't piss me off. Get out of the way!

Get out of the way.

Varghese, out of the way.

What is this sir?

Out! Out!

Step aside. Take the vehicle out.

Start the vehicle and get out of here!

Go… go…go...go...!

Get the hell out of the way.

Take the vehicle out.

Get back... out of the way.

Take the vehicles out.

Let it go. Let it go.

Go. Go.

Son, what's wrong with you?

You are well educated right?

Instead of this social crusade go somewhere and take care of your future.

Big brothers sometimes...

hit their younger siblings...

it is for their own good.

Pull over at the next junction and let him get off.

Get down.

Let's go.

Has he gone to sleep?

He's gone to bed, Ichaya.

What happened Ichaya, are you still thinking about Roy?

What for?

He asked for it.

Yeah right!

Like I don't know you.

Tell me what it is.

I am fed up.

I keep doing things for all these ungrateful people...

I'm not even able to sleep in peace anymore.

What's making you feel this way now?

Nothing.

Change that to one of the news channels.

Shall we?

Hey...

I am thinking of leaving this place…

Is it because of the slap you got yesterday?

You kind of deserved it.

It's my older brother right.

Forgiven and forgotten.

I can't seem to make a decision.

By the way, when are you heading back to your hostel?

I have to go back today.

Do you want me to drop you?

Will you?

Come.

"As the sun slowly comes up,"

"gently over the banks,"

"Without me realising, you came and stood by my side that day,"

"An incessant rain"

"could catch us at any moment,"

"Without saying a word you step under my umbrella with me,"

"That was the moment"

"In your eyes,"

"I saw myself"

"On the path where the wild grass grows, We walked, our fingers intertwined,"

"Like butterflies we flittered, softly and silently,"

"Our souls now connected,"

"have become one,"

"The tune that our hearts are singing,"

"Can you not hear it ringing in your ears?"

"As the sun slowly comes up,"

"gently over the banks,"

"Without me realising, you came and stood by my side that day,"

"An incessant rain"

"could catch us at any moment,"

"Without saying a word you step under my umbrella with me,"

The payment's done.

Royicha!

How come you are here?

I was just out and about.

What updates regarding your wedding?

For those updates you need to ask him.

Oh, I'm getting late.

It's almost curfew time at the hostel. I'll take your leave.

Okay then.

Soni... Take care

Tell me.

What happened Kochayi? Why are you looking so unhappy?

Tell me.

It's nothing.

In a haste, I went and fixed her wedding.

Later I realised that I don't have a penny on me.

But I can't postpone the wedding, can I?

Can you lend me some money?

When you say some money...

What amount are we talking about, Kochayi?

For now, 5 lakhs will suffice.

Kochayi! 5 lakhs?!

Do you think you can ask your father for the money?

You know the answer if I ask, right?

If I ask dad now….

Anyways, let me try Kochayi.

It's for our Soni right.

I'll find a way.

Sir, for the time being we'll transfer 25 lakhs.

Hmm… I will accept this but...

I don't think this matter will be within my control much longer.

The audit is next month.

Make sure you close the loan and retrieve the documents at the earliest.

Sir, isn't there some way in which you can…

It's only because you assured us that the loan will be closed in 3 months

that I signed the valuation papers despite knowing that the documents were forged.

Please don't get me into trouble.

Don't you trust us?

Don't forget that we have to deal with each other in the future as well.

We have a month's time right.

We'll sort everything out.

You should. Else we're all in big trouble.

It will be sorted sir.

Hey Roy!

Roy!

Roy!

Damn it. Who is this?

Roy!

Roy!

What's so important early in the morning?

Morning?

It's 12:30

Is it? I just passed out.

Come.

Go sit. I'll make some black tea.

Here you go.

Where were you yesterday?

I tried calling you.

Oh, I was in Ernakulam

What happened?

Any issues?

Shut up…

Dude, I need some money.

Around 5 lakhs.

5 lakhs?

What do you need so much money for?

It's not for me.

It's for Kochayi.

Soni's wedding has been fixed.

After years of hurdles he has finally managed to find a groom.

But he doesn't have a penny with him to conduct the wedding.

I need to help him out somehow.

You try asking your father.

Best idea.

I'll go there and ask him so he can kick me out.

On second thoughts,

maybe I should ask.

No harm in trying.

Move to the left!

Hello.

Keys? Which keys?

You do one thing.

Tomorrow morning by around 10 am wait under the Palarivattom Bridge.

I'll be there with the keys.

Don't stand in the sun and ruin your complexion.

Keys, it seems.

What keys?

We've constructed a leaning tower of Pisa at Ernakulam right?

They called asking for the keys to that.

At what cursed moment did we choose to start that project?

Lost both our cash and peace of mind.

Jenny! Can you please reduce the volume!!

Here, let me tell you something.

I don't want debt collectors setting foot in this house!

Annie, can you please calm down!

I can think of only one way out of this.

Let's fall at dad's feet.

Great!!!

Annie, it will work!

Ouseppetta, you haven't said anything yet…

What the hell kind of fertiliser did you say you put for the crop??

Father, why does the auditorium even need an AC?

Aren't a few ceiling fans enough?

Isn't that a bit embarrassing?

For you, father?

Then father, maybe you should be the one paying for the AC!

What kind of attitude is that?

Then.

Isn't it for the church?

Oh! Since it's for the church... I'll give you a thousand rupees.

Make sure you give me the receipt for it.

A thousand rupees?

If it's just a thousand rupees, it's better you keep it with you.

Okay. That's better.

Money it seems!

Father, Praise be to the Lord Jesus Christ.

Ya ya. Now and forever.

This 'praise' they know how to do!

Selva

Why does Fr. Charles seem so angry?

Ouseppettan is responsible for that...

that's why.

Heyy please hurry up!

Kariyappichetta, the cardamom looks infected.

A little…

You can drop the act and tell me why you're here?

Dad...

Come out with it.

Dad...

I need some money.

'Some' meaning?

Around... 5 lakhs.

Hmm… 5 lakhs…

Selva!

Yes!

Climb up that tree and pluck around 5 lakhs from it.

Make sure it's in denominations of 500.

Dad, stop fooling around.

Can you give me the money or not?

Listen! I don't have cash bearing trees to

give you money every time you ask for it.

Dad...

Dad!

It's that urgent a requirement for me.

Dad...

Yes?

If you don't have the cash, just give me my share of the inheritance.

What?

Share?

Share?

Yes.

Yeah. My share.

Instead of loafing around helping people and wasting

your life, learn to stand on your own two feet first!

Shouldn't you be doing things that benefit the family?

So you won't give! Right?

Is that what I said?

You do one thing.

Take on the responsibility of supervising the work here,

and then you can take how much ever you need.

Dad, when you speak of work...

doesn't it also includes your cutthroat money lending business?

Shut up!

If you don't do as I say,

I will give all my assets to an orphanage,

and not leave a penny for you!

No need dad! Don't give!

I know what to do!

Fine! Go! Go!

Yeah! I'm going.

You'll be back on Saturday morning itself right?

Yes Dad. How many times do I have to tell you?

Here…

Your teacher's phone number hasn't changed has it?

I can reach her on it, right?

Yes Dad! I am in high school now...

not second grade!

That's exactly my worry. You are in high school now not in Grade 2!

Can you please stop! She knows what's needed!

Here…

That must be George uncle. Pass me the phone.

Hello.

Yeah, I'm coming.

You didn't pack your sunscreen…

Okay, I'm leaving now

Remember all that I told you.

Happy journey.

Thank you.

Take care.

Okay.

Continue packing.

Dad's not gone to sleep yet.

What are you guys doing here at this hour?

Why? Can't we come see you at this hour?

Had you gone to bed dad?

Why? Have you come to tuck me in?

Dad...

Those 5 acres of ours at Anakuthil...

I am planning on getting its title deed sorted this time.

It's a little complicated...

but that's okay. I'll take care of it.

Go ahead, do it...

Now tell me, what's the real purpose of your visit?

Dad...

the two of us...

are in some serious trouble.

Tell me clearly.

Uh… That…

Dad...

our construction business has failed completely.

We owe the bank a massive amount of money...

and are drowning in debt.

So?

We were hoping you could help us out with some funds.

So you came here with a bottle of booze in the dead of the night for this?

Didn't the two of you calculate your shares and take it years ago?

Or have you forgotten all that?

This is not like that dad.

There is a chance we may even lose our jobs.

Dad...

we have no other option before us that's why we came to you at this hour.

Please help us.

How much is it?

Tell him.

It's quite an amount dad.

It's about 1... 1.5 crores dad.

Where do I get that much from?

Let me see.

Are you guys sleeping here tonight or…?

No, we're leaving.

Then take this bottle with you as well.

Come.

You think dad will give us the money?

I think he will.

If not, his reaction wouldn't have been this mild.

What do we do with this?

We'll drink it.

With the expectation that dad will give us the money!

Ever since mom died,

dad sees me and that jeep parked there as the same thing.

When the key is turned, it should start immediately

and when accelerator is stepped on, it should fly.

On the exact route he chooses.

He decided the clothes I should wear

He decided what I should study

He decided what kind of job I should take

Leave all that...

I even married the girl he chose.

In reality everything he did to make me win,

was actually to make me lose, right?

Do you know my likes and dislikes?

No…

Not just you, even I don't know.

Chettayi, if our mother had lived for 10 more years,

our lives would never have become like this.

Mom…

What was that Chettayi?

Kariyappi!!!

Come.

Kariyappi Chetta!

Who is it?

Who is there?

Kariyappi !

Huh! Stop there!!

Stop there!

Stop!

Chettayi...

Come.

Come. Get up. Come.

He's gone!

He hasn't.

I've smashed his head.

Chettayi!

It's Roy chettayi!

Hey.

Hey kiddo...

Hey son...

Kiddo...

Chettayi!

Hey son...

Roy.

Get up!

Hey son...

My child...

Get up!

Hold him! Chettayi.

Hold him.

Hold him.

Kiddo...

Hey son...

Son...

My child...

Chettayi.

Let's put him down.

My child...

Kiddo...

My child...

My child...

Roy.

He's... He's gone chettayi.

Chettayi! Don't cry!

Don't cry.

Chettayi.

if someone comes to know of this,

we're done for, Chettayi.

Let go!

Why the hell did you throw the stone at him!

Chettayi.

I didn't know it was him chettayi!

I didn't know chettayi.

Chettayi, please don't make noise.

Please don't make noise chettayi.

With the problems we are going through currently...

if this gets out...

think about what it will seem like Chettayi.

Our...

Think about our children…

Think about the children…

If they get to know...

They'll think we did it purposely.

Nobody should know chettayi.

Nobody should know about this chettayi.

Nobody should know chettayi.

Chettayi.

Chettayi… Hold him…

Chettayi… Come on.

That's his bike.

Hey. Where are you?

Why aren't you picking up?

Please call me when you get this message.

What is it Chettayi?

His face that day...

I can't stop seeing it.

I can't sleep.

He was our baby brother!

It wasn't done purposefully right chettayi…

It was a mistake.

It feels like a rock on my chest.

I can't carry this burden anymore.

Chettayi

There is no evidence,

no witnesses,

and no motive.

Am I not a police officer?

I know how to handle this.

Chettayi, please don't stress.

Where's this guy gone?

The number that you called is out of coverage area.

Please call again after some time.

That's not what I meant Ousephachaya.

This time the crop was very poor.

I didn't even recover the money I spent on fertiliser.

Why exactly are you telling me all this?

Well… the lease money I owe you…

Oh! That's what this was about.

Kariyappi, how much does he owe me?

It's 1...

So this was you were trying to avoid paying the balance.

It's not that.

Why is this land so poorly maintained?

Keep your excuses to yourself.

Make sure you hand over the money you owe me to Kariyappi.

That I definitely will!

Good for you if you do.

Please speak to him.

What can I do? You go.

By the way Kariyappi, its been several days since I saw Roy around.

No idea. It's been several days since he came home either.

If you see him please tell him I asked for him.

Where's the little one?

He's gone to school Kochayi…

You'll be joining us for lunch right Kochayi?

Let me see...

Any idea where Roy is?

I'm unable to reach him over the phone.

He had promised that he would organise some money for me.

You know how he is Kochayi.

Every time he sets out into the jungle for a

survey we have no news of him till he gets back.

And as you know there's no mobile network there either.

Don't get anxious Kochayi.

The money that he promised you...

Chettayi and I will give you that money. Alright?

Soni is our sister as well.

You have your tea.

Dad, where's Kariyappi Chetan?

He must be somewhere around there.

George...

It's been quite a few days since I've seen Roy.

Any idea where he may be?

He must've gone on a survey dad

I'll find out.

What's this?

It looks like you are looking at your wife's photo for the first time.

Our Roy is a spitting image of his mother... right?

My mind doesn't feel at ease.

The other day the money he asked for must've been for some urgent need.

I should've given it to him…

And you think he's not coming here because of that?

He'll be here soon.

Stop over thinking and worry yourself sick.

Anyways, you please go and find out where he's gone.

Praise be to the lord Jesus Christ.

Now and forever.

Please go keep this there.

Have all your relatives arrived?

A few are already here, others are arriving soon

Go keep this inside.

Sabu...

Did you get everything?

Yes, I got it.

There's 1500 that we have to pay.

Kariyappi Chetan is at the back. Go and take it from him.

George, have all arrangements been done at the graveyard?

It's been arranged.

Paapichaya...

Joshi.

George...

Roy hasn't gone on any of the surveys.

Let's do one thing.

Let's give a notice in the newspapers.

No matter where he is, he will surely

come when he hears of his father's death.

We haven't given it in the papers yet right...

What is it Paapichaya?

Take care of all the requirements for putting the news in the newspaper.

We'll get that done.

Just in the Kottayam edition is enough right?

No, no.

We don't know where Roy is. So it needs to be in the all India edition.

I will give you the photo and details.

You have the number of the newspaper agency Manoj right?

I have all that.

I'll do what's needed.

Paapichayan, you take care of things here.

Okay then. Hurry up and do it.

You call Abhilash and check.

Venu...

Please put Roy's photo in our WhatsApp group

and give my number as point of contact for anyone with any information

I'll do it right away.

Vargheese...

They'll give you the photo and the details.

Is Roy here?

No, not yet…

Go ahead.

I will arrange getting the photo across to you.

What if we go there and see?

A Funeral Prayer

I'm just stepping out to get some work done.

A funeral prayer

Come with me.

Everyone is asking about him.

Chettayi, please don't drink anymore.

I won't.

Michael...

the priest as well as the others want to know the time of the funeral…

We'll call the priest and tell him.

Okay?

Chettayi be a little more active.

Interact with everyone.

And please don't drink.

Anjali...

Where's Roy?

He's not here yet.

What else can we do?

We have searched everywhere there is to search.

There's absolutely no news of him..

George...

Kariyappichetta...

Where's chettayi?

He's there at the back.

George, are we waiting for Roy or….

We have no news of him Varghese…

We have no choice but to have the funeral tomorrow.

Have you guys reached there?

Kariyappichetta...

So they are going to bury Ousepettan tomorrow?

What choice do we have?

How much longer can we wait?

How's that right?

Doesn't Roy have to be here?

Doesn't he have to see his father one last time?

Isn't it?

Hey, Vinaya...

Has Roy called you?

He hasn't.

Kariyappichetta...

I'll make one thing clear.

Until Roy comes and sees his father I will not

let anyone proceed with Ousepettan's funeral!

Can you stop this.

Kariyappichetta, let me tell you this...

Something has happened to our Roy.

Otherwise he would have been here.

100% true.

Chettayi.

Don't.

Who is this guy to decide what happens in my family?

Please stop. What are you doing?

Chettayi come with me.

What is with you?

Stay inside.

Chettayi...

Chettayi. What the hell are you doing?

Chettayi...

Roychen's phone is still switched off.

I too tried to call him several times but couldn't get through.

The fact that Roy hadn't come home...

had made Ousepettan very sad.

But Roy isn't aware of any of this right…

Even if he is, he won't come home.

He left following a fight right.

He is a really stubborn boy.

Can you stop?

All of it is there.

Okay.

We'll need you again for the 40th day rituals. I will call you.

Papa...

Someone is here to meet you.

What is it Satheesh?

Sir, that Prathapan Nair is here to see you.

He's waiting outside

What is it chettayi?

Nair is here.

He's there. Come...

Come sir.

I was out of town and so didn't know your father had passed.

About that land, I am selling it to another person.

I also came here to tell you that in person.

What shit are you talking Nair?

What about the advance we paid you?

Which advance?

I had already warned you that if the registration doesn't

happen on time you will lose the advance amount paid.

How can you say that Nair?

Aren't there some ethics when doing business.

That land was bought by us.

As for ethics...

aren't you'll the ones without it.

Listen...

If we've given you the advance...

We also know how to get it back.

It's been 6 months since you promised to pay the balance.

I'll hold on for another 2 weeks.

By then if you don't close the deal and complete the registration,

you can forget about the money.

Are you threatening us?

It wasn't a bag of seeds we gave you...

it was cash.

that too 1.5 crores.

If I can give you that kind of money, I know how to take it back as well!

Chettayi, come here.

Sir!!

Chettayi, come here.

Satheesh, you're the one who brought these guys to me for the deal.

You better get things sorted.

You can go chetta. I'll take care of this.

You better. I've got better things to do.

Sir...

Sir, I had told you.

Told us what?

If we lose this money...

You know what I'll do to you, don't you?

Did you call me?

Sit, chetta.

I'll stand.

Sit.

Kariyappi chetta.

Now, we don't really need a person for driving and collecting loan amounts, right?

It's not just that son...

it's Selvan who sprays pesticides for the cardamom plants.

No, Selvan...

What is it children?

You guys started early without me?

Chetta...

There's no need for doing any work in the plantation now.

Tell Selvan he needn't come to work anymore.

If he's needed we will call him.

Okay.

Have this.

Kariyappi chetta...

do you have any idea as to where dad kept his will?

Oh, son, that's with the lawyer.

That's better. Talk about matters that are useful.

Afterall, I too have rights over my older brother's property.

Kochayi, haven't you already got your share.

Let us solve our issues first.

Yeah right! Get lost buggers! If I don't get what I want, none of you will either!

Can you please stop it Kochayi!

We'll give you what is due to you.

That's all I'm asking for.

Kochayi, what are you doing here?

When the family will is being read out, it's only

right that the elders of the family are present.

Some elder he is...

George...

Do we need to do this now?

Isn't it better to wait for Roy?

Yes, we need to do it right away.

We just have to give him what dad has written as his share.

Okay then...

20th February, 2014.

Idukki district, Peermade Taluk,

Kaduvapara village,

Chekuthanmala...

Vakil!

It'll be enough to read just the main points.

I have work to be finished up at the station so…

I hereby bequeath every asset I have received as inheritance,

the assets I own,

including the house I live in,

the 50 acres of cardamom plantation,

the ten shops in town,

ten acres of coffee,

as well as all the money in my bank accounts and every other asset I own...

solely to my youngest son, Roy Ousep.

Is all of it for Roy?

What kind of nonsense is this?

This will was written around 10 years back.

Ousepettan had told me that he wanted to make some changes to it,

once he came to know what the two of you were going through.

Unfortunately, he passed before he could do that.

Now the only person who can do anything about this is Roy.

I'll talk to him.

You know he will be happy to give you two a fair share.

Dad went his way after giving everything to Roy!

Anyway, I'm happy.

Unlike the two of you, Roy is conscientious.

I'm sure he will give me what I need once the paperwork is done.

He knows my struggles as well.

What we need to do now is to find Roy without wasting any more time.

What kind of useless police officer are you

if you can't even find your younger brother?

You're the one who thinks he will give you his share right?

You go find him if you want!

I will, I will.

I will! I'll go file a case!

It's not like you're the only policeman around here.

Policeman!

You think he's going to be a problem, chettayi?

Let him go and file a case.

What the hell are you saying?

What else! I need the money George!

If I need to get ten paisa from dad's wealth...

the world should know that Roy's dead!

Chettayi both of us will go down!

Both of us?

I haven't killed anyone...

Neither did I decide to bury anyone...

The people who did that can take the fall themselves...

Don't you dare talk this kind of crap to me...

Ichaya...

What?

What happened?

It's nothing.

There is something.

I've been noticing it for the last few days.

What happened?

Didn't I tell you it's nothing.

Shall I serve dinner?

I don't want to eat. I want to go have a shower.

You go and eat.

Go...

Ichaya...

What is it?

It's nothing.

What is it?

What is it ichaya?

It's nothing, really.

It's nothing.

It's nothing.

What is it? Is there a problem?

No there isn't.

If it's the trouble with the bank, forget it.

That will be sorted.

Whatever it is, you tell me.

There was an accident, we...

Our...

Roy...

Sir.

We found this in the bag in Roy's bike.

What are you doing here?

Sir, Roy's...

Listen girl, you've been going on for a while...

Are you his wife?

Chechi...

Child...

He's my younger brother.

I'm investigating...

another thing...

when I checked his CDR the last person to have called him...

is you.

For now, you go.

I'll let you know as soon as I have any news.

Go.

Where's Roy?

I don't know sir.

Don't know?

He never goes anywhere without telling you.

What's the cash dealing between the two of you?

We don't have any cash dealing sir.

When's the last time you saw him?

A few days back...

He had given me some cardamom to sell.

I sold that and gave him the money as well.

That's when I let saw him.

Did he tell you where the cardamom was from?

He said it was from home.

For now you can go.

If the need arises I will call you and you'd

better get here right away. Understood?

Sijo! Please make him sign before leaving.

Come in.

Good Morning sir.

Please sit.

Thank you sir.

I got to know about your fathers passing.

My condolences.

Sir.

So...

Any news about your younger brother?

I'm investigating sir.

George...

I've received a complaint.

It's been filed by non other than your uncle.

Don't worry. This is commonplace in big families like yours.

These are the problems that arise with your wealth increasing.

So. I'm assigning a new team.

Let them investigate.

Is that necessary sir?

Won't I investigate if my brother goes missing?

That's okay.

But you investigating your own brother's disappearance?

That's against protocol.

Sir.

Let the new team investigate.

Why give others a stick to beat the department with?

Okay Sir.

Carry on.

Okay Sir.

Aunty, don't trick me.

You're sure?

Yes.

Next time I come, I'll definitely bring it.

Okay Aunty.

I'll see you dear…

Ah... he's here.

Do you have to go today itself?

What can I do chechi? Dad's insisting on going.

I'm leaving.

The wedding is around the corner. Lots of things left to be done.

Kochayi, what is this you've gone and done?

What is it?

Why did you go and file a complaint with the SP?

Don't we need to find our boy, George?

Exactly! Tell that to him!

This is now my need right.

You had promised me some money but haven't kept your word.

If Micheal doesn't have problem with it then why are you so affected?

You come, let's go.

If we leave now, we can catch the last bus.

He thinks he can mess with me!

Hurry up girl!

Come with me.

I need to discuss something with you.

Stop messing with me.

You thought you can ruin me by filing a case?

If I hang...

You'll be the one hanging from the other end of the rope.

You can't do a thing to me.

Even I know the law.

At worst, an approver.

I'm standing on the edge...

I won't even give you the consideration of a brother.

Why don't you kill me as well?

Then it can be just you.

Chechi... I'm leaving.

Okay.

How many years since you've been in the service?

11 years.

And in crime?

that... 2 years.

Tell me Dhanya...

How can I help you?

I heard that Roy is someone who travels quite a bit.

Yes, once he goes for these surveys...

we never know as to when he will return.

That's the reason there was a delay in starting the investigation.

Sir, I read your case file...

When was the last time you saw Roy?

July 8th.

Did you meet him for a specific reason?

Isn't all that in the file.

I just wanted to clarify, is all.

Okay sir, let me take your leave.

Okay Dhanya, thank you.

Dhanya...

I hope you will do your best.

Sure sir.

Pass me your plate.

Ichaya.

Mini called in the afternoon.

Mom is very unwell.

So?

Shouldn't we pay a visit?

If you need to, you go.

I'm not coming and neither is he.

You'll stay in the vehicle.

Who are you?

Isn't this Roy Ousep's house?

It is. Why?

I'm Dhanya, I'm with the police.

I came to ask a couple of questions about Roy.

Please come in.

No need to remove your footwear.

Please come.

This is a really beautiful place.

What beautiful...

Only people who live here now how hard it is.

Please sit.

Where are you originally from?

I'm from Thiruvalla.

How long since you've been here?

It's been 17 years.

And you live in this house?

We weren't staying here...

But we moved here after dad's passing.

Is that Roy?

The one on the left.

How is it with Roy?

He was very loving...

Was?

Not anymore?

I meant he is.

I just happened to phrase it wrong…

Shall I get you some tea? Or?

No, I don't want anything.

The younger brother here...

He's with the police.

CI George.

Where do you think Roy has gone?

Oh that's the way he is.

He's always travelling. Once he tires of the jungles and mountains...

he'll come back home.

Okay then, I'll take your leave.

See you another time.

Sir... You know how long I've been trying to call you?

Sir... The scene here is very...

It's all okay?

... it's really bad sir...

Yes, no issues.

I told you this yesterday sir.

It's gone out of my hand, sir.

Cigarettes are over. Go buy me a packet.

Okay sir.

You please manage the rest.

Hello sir.

What's the update on our issue?

What issue?

The money...

If its not repaid quickly I'll be in trouble.

I've been unable to sleep due to the stress.

Have I taken any money from you?

No... but mi... mike...

If Michael's taken money from you, go ask him!

You know what will happen to you if you mess with me, right?

If you're here to do your bloody work, go and do it.

Sir, that...

Go...

What do you cultivate here?

Nutmeg and cloves.

Anjali, why did you go to Ernakulam that day?

I'm doing an internship there.

How long have you known Roy?

Since we were kids.

Why did you say you weren't satisfied with George sir's investigation?

When I went to his house to enquire about Roy, George sir's behaviour...

there seemed something odd about it.

Here, this is the last message he sent me.

Hey... listen I'm going home. I'm driving... I'll call you when I get back.

Were you and Roy in love?

Something has happened to Roy.

I am sure of it.

Okay.

Please send this before 3pm.

Jose, no matter how long you sit here,

I have nothing more to tell you.

Sir, if you talk like this now what can we do?

I told you. Demolish the encroached portions and I will issue the license.

Sir, we had discussed everything and reached a consensus with George sir right?

If George sir has said anything, go speak to George sir.

Don't come and tell me.

Hello...

Sir, it's George sir.

Take it and get out.

Jenny...

that's enough, get to bed.

Papa, goodnight.

What exactly is your intention?

The police have already reached our doorstep.

I'm telling you I won't stand around to be a co-accused in all this.

Annie, please give me some peace of mind

So now I'm the one ruining your peace of mind?

Can't you at least stand by me when I am in trouble?

Why?

What your father and brother said was always the gospel to you.

I told you long back that we should leave this damned place!

You wouldn't listen!

How can you, to do that you need to have a spine.

Shut up!

The day I listened to you and stepped out from this family...

That's the day my downfall started.

Yeah right.

I was the one who told you to get into a business

you had no clue about and lose all your money.

I was the one who told you to...

Enough.

I've had enough.

I'm going back to my family.

You do whatever the heck you want in this hell hole!

Go wherever the hell you want.

Let's see who is going to hell.

Here.

Jenny!

Come fast.

I don't want to go papa.

Go my dear.

Papa will figure a way out.

Jenny!

Go.

Go.

I'll see you soon.

When we look at the tower location of all three brothers

on that day it is clear that on the night of July 8th,

for almost 4 hours they were together.

They went separate ways around 4am.

Nobody has seen Roy since that night.

Despite it being his brother, George sir

has not made an effort in his investigations.

At least the effort doesn't reflect in his case file.

Moreover...

according to Kariyappi's and Selvan's statements

they haven't allowed any workers onto their property since Ouseph's death.

Ma'am, from here on is Ouseph's estate which is almost 60 acres.

This road leads right to Ouseph's house.

Also ma'am, in a 4km radius we have got just this one CCTV.

Are we sure that this is the only road that leads to the house?

Yes ma'am. This is the only motor-able road to the house.

Ma'am.

Even when their father passed away not once did

either George sir or Michael sir try to call Roy.

This is my hunch...

What if the person who went back that night on the bike wasn't Roy….

Maam.

On the basis of the visuals we have, we cannot prove

that the person who returned that night wasn't Roy.

The camera had poor clarity, and to add to that it was raining.

So I don't think enhancing...

I read through your report Dhanya...

There is ample reason for suspicion...

But where's the evidence?

Your allegations are against George,

an officer with an excellent track record.

Your credibility as well as mine is at stake.

I know sir.

I'm trusting you. Don't let me down.

Yes sir.

Chettayi did you tell Jose that you won't issue his license?

Yes.

Chettayi what the heck are you thinking?

Chettayi, all that I said the other day was because I really lost it.

Please forgive me.

How much longer can we go on like this?

This can't go on, chettayi.

Don't you want to bring chechi and Jenny back and live a happy life?

I too want peace of mind.

I know what needs to be done for that.

I just need you to stand by me.

Do what?

The police have to find Roy's body.

Sir, do you know how many days it's been since I've slept.

There's no point saying that Joey

Everyone in this town, including the police, know the issues between you and Roy.

At least to me, be honest.

Did something happen?

No sir.

I swear on my mother!

I haven't done anything.

Good for you if you haven't.

Don't forget that he's my brother.

Sir, you please don't start saying that, my blood pressure is already 240.

If you're innocent your blood pressure will come down on its own.

Joey, you can go for now.

If I have any other questions I will call you in again.

On my way back I need to visit the church. At least the lord knows the truth.

Get down!

Everyone get down and come with your buckets and baskets!

Michael...

You lot start work from this side

and the rest of you start from that corner.

What is it Kochayi?

I'm just gonna pluck the cardamom here.

Pluck the cardamom?

Hello! Hello! Chetta!

Michael, it's all just going to a waste.

You aren't plucking it anyway. I'll pluck it, dry it and make good use of it.

I'll do what's needed.

Kochayi gather your workers and leave.

Leave now.

The wedding is drawing closer.

George promised me the money but now he's ghosting me.

If I can pluck what's there here…

Kochayi, don't think you can conduct the wedding with the harvest from here.

Kochayi please leave.

How dare you say that! I too have rights over my brother's assets!

You'll get on with the work! I wanna see what he'll do!

Let's see how you do it.

Get lost! Go!

Get in to the vehicle and leave.

Start the vehicle! Start the vehicle!

Do it now before I smash the vehicle.

Don't go. Don't take the vehicle.

Get the hell out of here.

Don't go. Stop the vehicle. Stop the vehicle.

Hey Michael...

Kochayi...

If you try another trick like this...

Get out!

Chetta! Don't leave without me.

Okay Sir.

Madam...

Unlike what people think, there are no issues between Roy and his brothers.

Okay.

Madam...

Michael and George are the ones who raised Roy.

He is more a son than a brother to them.

I don't believe they will harm him for wealth.

Tell me George. What's the matter?

Chettayi on Saturday you need to come up with an excuse...

to send Kariyappi away for a few hours.

For what?

We have to move the body...

To Joey's quarry.

George, haven't you had enough?

This has already gone beyond our control.

It hasn't chettayi.

Please try and understand what I'm saying.

The police already suspect Joey.

I have already done enough so that everything leads to him.

Now all that is needed is evidence.

For that, we have to do this.

Chettayi, please trust me.

Ma'am, I tried to access George sir's watch data,

but it is secured.

We've got the data from Michael sir's phone though.

Between 12.30am and 2.30am on July 8th there was a movement of over 2000 steps.

That's about 1 to 2 kms.

Then?

On analysis of the heart rate and movement it

seems like this was either a struggle or running.

Sir, where do you think Roy has gone?

I told you, I don't know.

He wasn't in the habit of being in touch on a regular basis.

Roy had kept this safely in his diary.

You were a father and mother to him, weren't you?

What happened to Roy that night?

Like I told you... Roy left early that night...

We left after that.

Okay sir. I just wanted to clarify.

- Here... - Okay, sir.

A search warrant right? I can request that.

But I hope you understand the gravity of the situation Dhanya.

I understand sir.

That George and Micheal are involved in the disappearance of Roy is clear.

The evidence we seek is surely in Ouseph's property.

I'm certain of that.

Okay.

You may proceed...

but with extreme caution.

Okay, sir.

Come!

What is it chettayi? Why did you ask me to come urgently?

It's nothing, you sit down.

Is there a problem.

Absolutely nothing, I just felt like having a drink with you. You sit down.

I unnecessarily got worked up.

I started.

Kariyappi will leave tomorrow morning right?

I'll come by in the evening.

Do you remember the day before mother died?

Roy had just about started walking.

The four of us had spent so much time playing hide and seek.

It was so much fun.

With mother even the fun in our lives went.

Do you remember how you went on a two day hunger strike for a bicycle?

Dad still didn't budge.

If mom had been there...

she would have convinced dad.

She wouldn't have let you stay hungry.

I wasn't able to fill the void left by our mother.

Let it go chettayi.

If I had been able to fill that void...

we wouldn't have ended up like this.

I don't think Annie's coming back.

She's had enough.

Come on Chettayi...

Where else will chechi go.

Everything will be okay.

No... I am very confident now.

I feel at peace now.

By tomorrow everything will be fine.

Come in. Please sit.

Sir, why did you call me here?

Roy...

isn't alive.

Police radio chatter.

You can't cross this line...

Come on move aside, move aside

Can't you understand what I'm saying.

Didn't I just tell you to move aside.

For how long have I been telling you?

CI George, the brother of the deceased, Roy, has just arrived at the scene.

We still do not know what actually transpired.

Members of the press clamouring.

For the first time in my life, I made a decision by myself.

What actually happened that night?

We were drinking together...

George got drunk and went to sleep.

After some time...

I heard a noise near the storeroom and went to check what it was.

Seeing me, the person in the storeroom got out and ran.

I gave chase.

When it looked like the person was going to get away, I threw a stone at him.

It struck him and he fell.

When I went close and checked...

it was my Roy.

"My guardian are you,"

"The one who takes care of me,"

"The one who is always by my side,"

"In this world."

"In word it's you,"

"In sight it's you,"

"Like shade from the sun"

"Please come to me"

"Like Cain you lost your way forever"

"Your soul was raked over a coal fire,"

"You sacrificed Abel,"

"The pain was like being scorched in flames"

"And the unceasing calamities began"

"You sacrificed Abel,"

"The pain was like being scorched in flames"

"And the unceasing calamities began"
