Suma!

Manju!

Mother!

Greetings Ananth anna (brother)

Who is it?

Oh it is Ananth anna ( brother )

Chukki!

I won't give it to you!

You can't catch me!

Give it to me!

I won't!

Chukki!

- I got you! - Topi uncle is here!

Take the bag.

Sir

Sir, can I help you?

Ananth anna, I hope you know his mother eats only what he cooks.

Please take this.

Look here.

Chukki. Turn around.

Sir, you’re performing the rites after ten years.

And they haven’t come this time, too?

You know how they are. None of them answer the phone.

I wrote to them. They must be busy.

Like he hasn’t done enough for them already!

He pampered his siblings a bit too much.

Poor Chukki. Her uncle and aunt have never come to see her.

Yet...

you took care of your siblings like your own children.

And when the good times came, you lost your mother.

That’s the play of time.

Ananthu, take the jeep.

And don’t forget to come in the afternoon.

Sweetheart,

give uncle the jeep keys.

Sir, any groceries to be picked up? Can I help in any way?

Ananthu, just for today, all chores will be mine.

I just want everyone to have a satisfying meal this afternoon. That’s all.

- Topi uncle! - Yes kid!

Here are the keys.

Thank you!

Topi uncle, he won’t let go of you. He’ll come along, too!

Oh god! Inspector’s rooster is here!

It only eats non-veg.

Hey Ninga, why don’t you get some chicken from home?

Shut up! Don't you know it's inspector mother's shraddha today, have to maintain madi(ritual purity)

And sir is extremely strict about these things.

God, please protect me.

Bless us lord!

Kumar, what brings Mr Ningappa to our humble abode today?

Sir, I think an elephant made its way to our

house last night. Please hand me the complaint form.

Kumar, did you spot the elephant too?

Not even an ant, sir!

If I give him the form, he'll run to the forest officials asking for compensation.

It’s become a habit with them, sir.

Did the elephant harm you in any way?

10 plantain trees, 30 shrubs, and..

two clusters of bananas. All gone!

And this?

Luckily, this survived. So I brought it for you.

Has anyone other than you, seen this elephant?

Sir, it has pooped three miles from my house. You can come and see!

Yikes! Why should I come to look at poop!

Kumar, why don’t you go and take a look?

Sir, we have to attend the ceremony.

Oh yes, I forgot about it.

Ninga, your work can’t be done today. Come back tomorrow.

You can leave now.

Ayy!

Wasted my time. Nothing has progressed since this station opened

Ammachi! She's a devil!

Hey Ninga! Stop right there! Where are you off to you b*%$*€#d!

What’s up Ammachi? What brings you here so early!

This Ninga is a lazy loafer. Always asking for money for something or the other.

And when I ask for my change, he is full of excuses!

Useless dog!

[Radio plays in the background]

Ananth anna, I’ve been asking you repeatedly.

But you keep avoiding me. What happened to the matter?

Please advice your daughter Pankaja.

Why is she always in Chandrashekar’s house?

The stars alone don’t decide one’s fate.

People’s opinions matter more than what the stars say.

Getting a girl married is no joke.

First, you silence all the gossip mongers

Then we can figure out the bad stars in her horoscope.

Look at her horoscope and tell me when she might get married.

She’s beyond marriageable age now.

She goes to Chandrashekhar’s house to train in something.

I don’t understand these things.

What brings you all the way here today Ammachi?

It's because...

... the roof hasn’t been fixed, and monsoon is near.

Since the station opened, it has become my job to do it.

Sir may have forgotten, but it still has to be fixed.

So I came to remind him.

So he won’t be coming in today?

Ammachi, you forgot? Today's the death ceremony.

Is that today? I forgot.

How long has it been?

25 years!

Time has flown.

Poor woman!

She suffered a lot. And just when things were getting better...

So none of them came?

Ungrateful souls.

I'll come soon. Please don't be angry.

Come in the evening, Rohit. I'll be waiting.

Why don't you have some?

It's Monday. I don't eat meat uncle.

[Men conversing in the background]

Boss... Boss?

Why isn't he answering?

Boss...

Srinivasiah is no more.

Greetings sir. Srinivasiah's only son's whereabouts are unknown.

Keep looking, you may find his address in letters. [wailing heard in the background]

Alright sir.

Silence!

Silence.

This is a murder.

Srinivasiah has been murdered.

Dad...?

Dad...

What are you searching for, dad?

Grandmother's picture sweetie.

Dad!

What were you up to?! What if you'd fallen and hurt yourself?

Keep talking back and you'll get it from me!

- She never listens to me! - I was just trying to take the photo

Come.

Be careful, what if you got hurt?

Sweetheart, this is grandma. This is my mother.

Nice!

Now take a quick bath and get ready, ok?

Mother...

She’s just like you. Gets angry in a flash!

Ananthu, take the jeep. Don’t forget to come in the afternoon

Sweetheart, give uncle the jeep keys.

Come and pour ghee for grandma, little one.

Sweetie?

I'm here.

(Mimics a crow)

(Did you like the sweet?)

Come,

let's have lunch. - Sure sir.

The mason had come. To repair the roof at the station.

- Have some more. - No sir, I'm good.

Here, eat.

Dad, the payasa (a sweet) is superb!

*Mumbling*

Sir, please serve Kencha fritters.

He's eagerly waiting.

Kencha, is it not spicy enough for you?

- Bye Chukki! - Bye Topi uncle.

See you sir. Bye.

Sir,

Srinivasaiah is no more.

Srinivasaiah is no more.

Give that to me sir. I’ll take care of it.

Please go and get ready.

We still haven't received Padmanab's son's background papers.

It's irritating when they rush me.

Not just me, the whole staff has this problem.

If everyone leaves the country, who'll be left?

Old people I guess.

Let it go.

The young always want to fly in the sky.

When their wings tire, that's when they remember the tree.

And come back to their nest.

(Indistinct chatter)

Greetings sir. Srinivasiah's only son's whereabouts are unknown.

Keep looking. His address might be on his letters.

Okay sir.

Ananth, see what can be done next.

- Kumar. - Sir!

Oh no! The Devil! I'm dead!

Make way.

Get up, make way!

Come, don't rush.

Slowly

Kumar!

Yes, coming.

Make way, make way.

Sir, we’re unable to open that room.

We might find an address in there.

Maara!

Hey, have you seen Maara?

Yeah, he was out back.

Maara!

Silence!

This is a murder!

Someone has killed Srinivasiah!

It’s been 25 years since this station was set up.

Not a single case has been filed.

Why is he suddenly acting like a real cop?

Sir, how can you sure it’s murder?

Take the body to the hospital. I’ll speak to the doctor.

Don’t worry about all that, you come with me.

Sir, I wanted to ask you...

When can we start the roof repairs at the station?

Let's finish this first, all right?

Post mortem isn’t in our tradition.

Hello?

Is the doctor available?

The doctor is not around

A post-mortem needs to be done. We are sending the body.

Doctor has to be present to do the post-mortem.

When will he be back?

The doctor?

Of course the doctor!!

- Who the hell is speaking? - And who the hell are you?

This is the inspector speaking!

Idiot, move it!

Ananth, this is an IPC 300 case. Start the work already.

IPC 300?

Sir, IPC doesn't stand for is Instant Prasad Collection.

Shut up idiot!

After his son left home, he wanted to perform his last rites.

I had convinced him not to.

First, make arrangements to shift the body!

Okay sir.

Hello, this is the inspector speaking.

Srinivasaiah has passed away. A post-mortem has to be done.

- What! Boss passed away? - Yes.

Is this the same Srinivasaiah from postman Govinda’s village?

Yes, him. And his post-mortem has to happen now.

Who are you by the way?

I am the inspector of the same village mister!

There is an inspector in his village?

I am the inspector from Govinda’s village. It’s okay if you don’t know me…

You b******d! You know a petty postman like Govinda, but not our inspector?

Idiot!

Shall I send the body now?

Yes sir, please.

His soul lived a full and meaningful life, sir.

It’s a pity it ended like this.

No one's been able to trace his son.

But the death rites must be completed.

So who else is there to do them, but me?

Let the body stay here sir. We'll finish the rituals by evening.

If we don’t do the rituals, it’ll bring bad luck to the whole village.

Have you forgotten you’re a cop, Ananth?

Just do what you're told or I’ll recommend you for suspension.

Let’s go outside and talk, sir. Please come.

Come sir.

I know that Srinivasaiah wasn’t liked by many.

But no one would dare murder him in this village sir.

He was old, and so he passed away.

Just because he was old doesn’t mean it was a natural death!

There is no sign that it was unnatural.

How could he have been murdered, sir?

There is no bigger weapon than the brain.

Using the brain hasn’t led to even a small theft in this village sir.

So how could anyone commit such a big murder sir?

Sir, we’ve tried searching for his son, but no luck.

Sir, first let’s find his son.

And how do we do that? Tell me.

Rohit might know.

Rohit?

How?

He keeps sending letters through the computer, so he might know.

Rohit lives here sir. I’ll go get him. He’s been acting too smart these days.

You also join Civil Engineering like your brother.

And if you get a government job after that, I’ll live in peace!

Mom, don’t bother him.

Rohit you pursue what you like. I’ll support you.

No need! Your father has clearly said...

...that both of you must become civil engineers.

I’ve said yes to everything you’ve asked for. Spare him at least.

That contractor Basappa keeps calling and nagging me, son.

He says his bill hasn’t been approved. Why?

Dad, half his bills are fake.

Basappa is close to the MLA.

Do you even know how he bagged this project?

Being educated is not enough.

You must also know how the world works.

Bro, the computer…

What computer? Utterly useless.

Does your father even know?

Mom, please.

He's already studied a lot about computers in school.

Even I’m a rookie next to him.

Just wait and watch, everything's going to be computers soon.

You go ahead and do Computer Engineering. I am with you.

You boys do as you wish! Don't get me into trouble.

Bro, please get me a computer.

Our brother-in-law has promised me a connection from the telephone department.

Please bro.

Don’t tell dad. I’ll try and do something.

Bye!

Is Ravi there?

The assistant engineer. I’m his father. Can you call him?

Don’t you have any sense?

Just because he asked for it you bought it for him?!

Now what do we with this computer?

They only use it in bank head offices.

It hasn’t even come to our district branch office.

So of what use will it be at home?

How much is it?

Oh my god! We could have paid an advance for a site instead!

What else to do now?

The postman is pestering me to take the package.

I’ll take him there. Let him carry it back home

I guess it will consume a lot of power.

Just this once, that’s all.

I’ll send Basappa. Look into it.

Hey! Come here!

Govinda!

- Hey Govinda! - Coming boss. Two minutes.

What’s this huge parcel lying here?

That? Something called a computer. It’s come to Chandranna’s house.

Damn!

The horrid machine that is spoiling kids is now in our own backyard.

Deliver the letter home, Govinda.

Okay boss.

- Greetings Srinivasiah! - Yeah yeah, whatever.

The audacity!

After his son left home, this man has gone nuts.

Seen the film Bhaktha Prahlada?

If you have faith, God exists in a stone too.

And also in this computer.

Go switch it on. Let’s see what this mighty thing holds.

This is the connection wire . Where's the phone?

- Let’s connect and test it . - The connection is for a modem not a phone.

So what happens when we connect it?

If we connect it to this...

The world will be at your finger tips.

Please visit at least once a year.

Who else do I have here?

You’ve remembered your sister after three years.

It’s only because of my daughter that I’m managing somehow.

If she wasn’t around, then?

Well, I'm here now, aren't I?

What’s the use?

You’ll be here for a few days and then go back.

And who knows when you'll return.

And if I want to call you, I never get the damn line.

Sis, why don’t you just keep a pigeon?

You can send a letter with it like the old days.

Might reach me faster!

I’m tired rearing all the hens and roosters over here...

Now you want me to add a pigeon also?

Have you seen what a mess this house is?

Your brother-in-law is least bothered these days.

He’s always in the plantation.

Must have buried some treasure there!

- Coffee. - One second.

Brother-in-law, why is all this stuff lying in front of the house?

The store room is empty; You could keep it there.

It just looks odd, scattered in front of the house.

No, son. It's not easily accessible if kept there.

It’s more convenient here.

Come on brother-in-law. What is this?

The house needs repairs, too. Let’s do it this time.

Okay fine. But what’s the urgency?

It's just some minor fixes.

Ammachi, our mason will take care of it.

Not Ammachi. Let’s hire an engineer and get it done properly.

No son, we’re okay.

Once you return, you can get it done as per your liking.

No brother-in-law. Do you not think about my sister?

And that poor little one. They don’t deserve this.

When our father was alive, he got the house painted every year. Without fail.

Okay.

Tell your sister.

Get it done however you want to.

Pramod, take a look.

After all the expenses, the pending amount has been deposited in your account.

Brother-in-law, I didn’t mean this.

It’s okay. You must be aware of these things.

The expenses are in the book. Take a look.

I don’t hire labourers for these things.

They charge too much.

So I completed the work myself. So that we can save some money.

Growing paddy doesn’t fetch profits.

But if everyone cultivates areca and ginger...

...who will grow the paddy that actually sustains us?

Even though paddy doesn't get you profits, it does satisfy your soul.

Please go over the expenses once.

Brother in law...

Yes, give it to me.

Please come! What’s this?

This is the jackfruit from the tree that’s by the pond.

You can make excellent jackfruit dumplings with it!

Dear, please soak some rice to make it!

Please come!

Come, sit.

If you don’t mind…

Thank you.

My brother Pramod kept saying he has some work on the computer.

He says everyone abroad owns a computer.

And you know my husband...

Other than farming, nothing interests him.

So we came here today.

Let me tell you, owning a computer is an expensive affair.

Non-stop expenditure.

It’s like rearing an elephant!

Thank god! It was really urgent.

Impressive man! To have a computer with internet in this village.

Thank you. Let’s go?

Can you do me a favour?

I’ll send emails to my sister. You take a print out and give it to her.

And mail me her reply. Airmail is so slow and boring.

It takes forever. Would you do it?

I don’t know if I have the time.

Besides, I’m still learning.

Hey man! You can charge for it.

I’ll tell my sister. Say Rs 50 per email?

Okay?

Okay! For your sister, right?

The phone lines are down most times.

You please send.

Thank you.

Am I a postman now?

Govind uncle! Bye!

Govind uncle!

Hi, I’m Arun, Srinivasaiah’s son.

I got your email ID from my friends.

You probably know my story.

- Who is this for? - Just give it, mom.

Because I’ve gone abroad, my father refuses to speak to me.

He doesn’t answer my calls too.

My letters also go unanswered.

He’s been alone ever since I left.

Can you please check on him and let me know?

Hey Maara...

Go and see who it is.

Okay boss

Oh it's you. What's up?

I wanted to give this to uncle.

Boss! It's Rohit, Chandranna's son.

Uncle...

Mom sent it for you.

See what it is.

Our junior landlord's favourite!

Why not take a bus to America and hand it over to him?

Watch out for the dog on your way back. Go and see him off.

Come, let's go.

My brother got a promotion!

I saw him the last time he was back home.

I'm told he’s doing a good job.

He’s on a roll with his work.

And you?

I’m learning computer uncle.

What did you say? Computer?

It’s the worst thing on the planet! An evil!

Useless to mankind.

A waste of both time and money!

Look at Mara. What are his needs?

Food, clothing and the rest...

well...can’t be spoken about to kids.

Can your computer provide all that?

Your brother is constructing homes, buildings and bridges.

And they are essential.

And electricity? That’s needed too.

And this bike? Also needed.

And what can your silly computer do?

Uncle, lots of things can be done with the computer.

Shut up! I’ve seen enough.

Just wait for the year 2000 and your computer will crash.

Gone forever.

No uncle.

They are rectifying the Y2K problem.

Oh really? Let’s see.

God knows how many more families this computer will destroy.

Take it.

Just take it.

And find yourself a good job. Don’t wait until the year 2000.

Computer it seems!

What everyone says is true.

This man is really crazy!

I will never come back here.

Dear Arun,...

Your father is as strong as a log.

Sorry, as a rock.

Even though he lives alone, he's found his peace.

You don't have to worry about him.

True. My father is made of sterner stuff.

Even if he’s alone, he lives without a care.

If only I'd learn to be like him.

Ever since I left home, my father...

... and the one i loved ...I've felt so lost here.

It's lonely here.

My father loves chicken.

He never ate out, so I'd bring it home every week or two.

I miss those days.

Things are getting hard here. The Y2K problem will be fixed soon...

We will all be laid off from our jobs.

These people won't extend our visas if we don't have a job.

I doubt if I will get a job if I return.

I doubt if my dad would welcome me back into his life

I don't know what i'm supposed to do.

But I do have an idea if I return.

Let's start a company together.

You know, most companies are run by college dropouts here.

And you're brilliant. We should try something.

Brother, one plate chicken parcel.

"Dad loves chicken".

Uncle!

Special!

Smells great!

- Is this chicken? - Yes uncle.

Looks like you love chicken.

How do you know that?

Who doesn't love chicken uncle?

Where did you get this from?

From the Nair hotel.

Why are you wasting money?

Along with your mail delivery service, have you started food delivery too?

For you it’s free uncle, I won’t charge you anything!

Free?

Complimentary?

Use your brains.

In this world, only Mother Earth gives for free.

But mankind looks at everything as business.

You’re too naive for this world.

Okay, take it.

One message for Pankaja

That’s why he’s feeling lonely.

Mother isn’t here.

Want me to pass on a message?

No. I came by to meet you.

What is it?

Arun has sent an email for you.

Arun has sent this through the computer for you. He’s asked me to give it you.

I’m not good at reading English.

I am! Give it here. I’ll read it for you.

Dear Panki.

I know you must be angry with me.

But I am helpless.

I couldn’t even call you.

Please don’t feel bad.

From now on, I’ll keep writing to you.

How are you? I know.

You didn’t want to go college.

You must have become a doughnut eating at home.

And that’s okay.

You will always be beautiful to me.

Yours truly, Arun

Is there anything you want to tell him?

Tell me. I’ll write it down.

Aru...

Dear Aru.

It’s been many years.

I’m not angry with you.

I’m happy you wrote to me.

I have lots more to say,

but it’s tough at the moment.

Tough?

Tough at the moment.

Tough.

When are you coming back?

I feel like seeing you.

Shall I ask him to send his picture?

Can that be done?

Of course. I’ll tell him.

Anything else?

What else…

I still look the same and

not like a doughnut?

I will see you soon.

Ah Ammachi! Come.

I had made ragi laddus. I hope you like them.

I’m sure they're delicious!

I'm not saying this because she’s my daughter, but she cooks really well.

I’m out all the time.

But she takes care of our house.

Don’t worry Ammachi. God will take care.

I have some home-made pickle, let me give you some.

Get her married soon, Ammachi.

That’s one thing I haven’t managed yet.

She’s still young and wants to learn typewriting.

She says your son will teach her.

If she comes here, she can learn.

How can you call her young, Ammachi?

Rohit!

Had you got her married at the right age, you’d have a grandkid by now.

It’s okay. Don’t delay any more.

My son is always stuck to his computer. He keeps tapping away on it.

He even eats in front of it.

It’s okay. Let her also learn.

Teach her whatever it is that you do.

Come.

Boss is calling you.

- It’s okay. - No, you go. I’ll take care of this.

Careful.

Boss is over there.

Come here!

I had gone to town. Ran out of fuel.

I thought I could make it till here, but…

I've got fuel at home. They'll refuel it for you.

Tomorrow is my mother’s death anniversary.

It’s been 25 years.

That’s true.

How is everyone at home?

Careful. The rocks are slippery.

Your wife learnt to swim here as a little girl.

Your father-in-law was a close friend. He was a wonderful man.

Your farmland is very beautiful.

I hear you’re an ace farmer yourself.

I don’t take credit for any of it.

The trees grow on their own.

One must not interfere with nature, but let it take its own course.

Every time it’s me who comes to your rescue!

Let's go.

Careful

Why is he walking over so furiously?

Why did you come all the way? I only wanted this wastrel to come.

You had sent word that it’s urgent. And he also said the cops are there too.

Had I known it’s just you, I wouldn’t have gotten worried.

What do you want with my son?

I’m glad you came.

The inspector is here too.

I had gone into town the other day. I met the postmaster.

And I got to know that your son is involved in something shady. So…

My son? Shady?…

He reads all the letters that come to the village. And that’s wrong.

Isn't it so Inspector?

According to Indian Post Office Act 1898, Article 53,

You can be jailed for two years if you read someone else’s letter.

Jail?

I hope you now see how serious this is...

I told you not to buy that computer! Both you brothers hounded me for it!

Now who is going to face the music? The things you guys are upto!

Ah! Caught you there!

Don’t worry. Your son will not be jailed.

The Act doesn’t apply to emails.

If postman Govind reads others’ letters, he can be jailed for two years.

Let’s go have tea now.

Let’s go.

All we want for our kids not to suffer.

But these guys just don’t understand our struggles.

Don’t keep thinking only about your kids.

It’s your life, so live it well.

The kids will look after themselves.

Parents shouldn’t raise their kids with big dreams.

We just need to do our part and let the kids take over from there.

If parents realise when to step back...

...everyone will be at peace.

I’ve made my decision.

After i'm gone, all my property will go to an orphanage.

I have already updated my lawyer about it.

Once I sign the will, I can pass away in peace.

Come in the evening. I will be waiting for you.

This is for uncle. Don’t eat it just because you like chicken too.

Why don't you have some?

I’ll go and fetch Rohit. He’s been acting too smart these days.

Rohit?

Rohit!

What’s up Ananth?

Don’t you know? Srinivasaiah passed away.

This is a huge loss for our village!

Srinivasaiah passed away? How sad.

- Is your son home? - He is never up so early.

Let me call him.

You clean the car every day?

If I manage once a week it’s a big deal.

If I'm in the mood to do so.

Once it rains, you don’t have to.

Just because it rains doesn't mean we don't clean ourselves.

It's hard to argue with you...

What happened?

(Gasps), Rohit!

(indistinct chatter) (Wailing heard in the background)

Hello sir.

Take care of yourself my dear…don’t cry.

Sir, what is this?

Two lives on the same day.

Last night the voltage must've spiked and messed with the computer.

And he must have got electrocuted when he touched it.

Ananth…

Mom...

...your lunch.

To survive this society, I ended up becoming the man of the house.

I don’t know what I've fed you,

but today,

you’ve become my mother.

Okay bye now!

Ganesha, take this.

So Ninga hasn’t come? He had come asking for money last evening. Anyway.

Yours

If you keep asking for an advance every time, how am I supposed to work?

All of you finish the masonry work next to Srinivasaiah’s plantation.

I’m off to the station to find out when we can start the roofing work.

- Go on now. - Okay madam.

Pankaja

Coming.

I’m off now. Take care.

Are you going to Chandranna’s house?

Okay. Come back soon.

It's going to take sometime to load the photo.

It’s okay. I’ll wait.

So what's the story with the tree?

You've been talking about it a lot.

Oh that?

Arun and I could not meet often.

Where could I possibly sit and speak to Arun in this village?

We were able to exchange a few words if we bumped into each other. That’s all.

So...

...he made a plan one day.

There is a huge Magnolia tree near home.

There's a little hollow in it.

So every day, he would keep a letter there for me.

When I went to pluck flowers in the morning,

I would read the letter then.

Why didn’t you marry anyone else?

You’re so beautiful!

You won’t understand, Rohit.

You’re still a small boy.

I’m not a small boy! Tell me.

I understand everything.

The mind can be dangerous.

It never listens to us.

It doesn't know the difference between right and wrong.

The mind always finds a way to get what it wants.

Once I saw him as mine, no one else mattered.

It’s been so long now.

Won’t Arun find anyone over there?

Why is he thinking of me again and doing so much?

I had assumed that Arun would never return and had made peace with it.

Now, once again, I feel like I want him back.

I’m sure we’ll reunite.

I have that faith in us.

What are you thinking about!?

Okay, write.

Everything else is going well,

But please come back soon.

Has Arun mentioned anything about his return?

The internet is down.

Give it a minute.

"Let me try Panku."

"There are lot of changes that have happened here."

"Let me finish all of it and I'll come back for sure."

"We have waited for so many years. Just a little longer."

"I’ll come back soon."

Please...

Don’t get angry.

"Yours truly,"

"Aru"

No matter what I say, he doesn’t listen to me.

I know how...

...to make him come back here.

I’m cooking for my father-in-law.

Please come in the evening, Rohit.

I’ll be waiting.

Come home soon Arun!

Else everything will be ruined.

Please.

Give this to father-in-law.

Don’t you eat it because it’s chicken!

Let me know what he says about my cooking.

Okay?

It smells delicious.

Some relationships don’t go far, Rohit.

Drop this here.

Oh no! Watch out!!

Can't you watch where you're going?

Boss wanted these to be handed over to the lawyer urgently.

All destroyed now.

Pankaja.

Pankaja!

Coming mom.

What have you made dear? Chicken curry?

I did mom, but a lizard fell into it.

I threw it away.

Had to throw out the pot too. What a waste of ingredients.

It’s okay. I had gone to the station today.

Anant will look into your birth chart and suggest remedies for…

Mom, please eat.

Yes, we can look into it later.

If Srinivasaiah signs the will...

...Arun will come back to no inheritance.

Then what will happen to my business?

Should I email him about all this?

But by the time he returns, Srinivasaiah would have signed the will.

You eat too.

It's Monday. I don't eat meat uncle.

I’ll see you uncle. It’s getting late.

Give me water.

I think the elephants are near Srinivasaiah’s home.

All the labourers are resting at a shed there.

Mom, go to sleep.

We’ll look into it in the morning.

Mom...

I’ll come along too.

Okay. Come fast.

The boss has passed away!

Really?

You bring the flowers. I’ll go there.

*Indistinct chatter*

Sir, we’ve searched everywhere for his son’s details, but no luck.

Let’s look for him, sir.

How do we do that?

Rohit might know.

Rohit?

How?

He keeps sending letters through the computer. I think he might know.

You said he teaches you typewriting. He even writes letters is it?

Just you wait! I’ll take of this later!

Go home now!

Sir...

I’ll go get Rohit. He’s acting too smart these days. I’ll be back.

(Indistinct chatter)

Last night the voltage must've spiked and messed with the computer.

And he must've got a shock when he touched it.

Ananth…

- Sir, sir! - Shhhh.

Follow me quietly.

Pankaja!

Pankaja! My dear?

Sir?

Brother?! What’s all this?!

My daughter…?

Don’t worry. I’m there.

Sir, it must be something else.

Poor girl.

Pankaja is not that kind of girl.

Sir...

I went behind Ammachi’s house, just like you said

And there I found this broken pot.

And, a little further up, I found this root, too.

What root is this, sir? It doesn't even have a smell.

Pashambara.

You said a lizard fell into it.

You?! Why did you lie to me?!

Lying to me!

Why did you kill him?!

- Kumara! - Sir?

Ammachi, come.

Please stop now.

Please calm down.

Arun and I...

...liked each other for a very long time.

When he left the country,

He told me he’d be back soon.

But

But I didn’t hear from him after that.

I kept waiting.

One day, Rohit said...

Arun had written to me via that computer.

Then we started talking to each other again.

I kept telling him to come back soon.

But he never listened to me.

But if his father died...

He’d definitely come and...

then we both could get married.

...that is what I had planned.

Please come in the evening. I’ll be waiting.

Pankaja.

Coming mom.

A lizard fell into it, so I had to throw it.

I had clearly told Rohit...

...not to eat from that box.

I assumed he would forget.

It smells delicious.

But he ate some anyway.

(Elephant trumpeting)

Pashambara.

It has no smell. No taste.

Extremely poisonous.

If you soak it in water for three days and three nights,

The poison...

...seeps into the water.

And if you mix it with food...

...no one will know.

And within a minute, life comes to an end.

It leaves no trace.

Nobody will even know.

But that isn’t the case with animals and birds.

They can figure out its smell.

And the minute they get to know,

They begin to act strange.

Fear.

Fear!

The fear of dying terrifies animals.

Only man forgets that fear sometimes...

Kumar, get me that chair.

When praying to god,

Don't pluck all the flowers from a single plant.

Because even the plant feels pain.

That’s the kind of empathy man must have.

Even God gives a wrongdoer...

...a chance at redemption.

Nobody becomes God by killing.

Forgiveness is a gift.

Forgiveness is truth.

Forgive the world.

Even the greatest sinner must be forgiven.

That’s the divine law of righteousness.

And you...

He probably doesn’t even know what you look like.

And you killed Srinivasaiah someone you didn’t even know.

What did he ever do to deserve that?

And Rohit.

What did Rohit ever do to you?

He became your friend and left as a corpse.

You poisoned everything you touched...

Poisoned everything!!

Mom, where are you taking me?

Please let go of me.

Please don’t!

Mom, please don’t!

Brother!!

Don't drop me mom!

Mom!

Please don't!

You only realise how futile it is to catch a rainbow...

After you've jumped off the cliff and fallen down.

Kumar.

Don't let her stay here. Take her home.

And ask your wife to keep an eye on her.

This matter should remain between us. I’ll tell you later what to do next.

But that means...

Arun will never return?

Enough. Let’s go.

The damn computer.

I performed the puja to it as well.

It killed two people! Pure evil.

Anant…

Anant?

Sir...

I didn’t think Pankaja would turn out like this.

How does one become so cruel overnight, sir?

How did the inspector find out...

...that the chicken had poison in it?

This is a murder.

Someone has murdered Srinivasaiah.

You think it will go unnoticed by god?

He will definitely punish her.

She even poisoned the father of the man she loved.

Now she has to face jail time... or the gallows.

There are three ways to get to the truth.

The first is with an eye witness.

Which means someone actually saw it.

But no one saw Pankaja poison the chicken curry.

Poor Rohit.

He unknowingly gave the poisoned food to Srinivasaiah

And became a victim himself.

The second is suspicion.

Which means one has to find proof for it.

But the inspector first accused Pankaja ...

and only later brought the broken pot as proof.

The third and final way to get to the truth...

..One's own experience.

One must've committed a similar crime before...

To easily catch someone else doing it.

Sir!

We must ensure Pankaja is punished.

That is the right thing to do.

But what about you?

In spite of committing wrong ... unknown to everyone...

...you still continue to suffer like you are in exile.

How's this right?

30 years ago. 1967

Suma!!!!

Manju!!!

Hey there! Stop!

Stop for a moment.

What happened?

My mother and siblings are missing!

- Where did they go? - I don't know.

Come sit, I'll help you search.

Mom!!

Tell me who doesn’t have troubles?

The last time, you tried to hang yourself.

This time...!

You took your poor kids with you!

What else could I do?

What is the point to their lives?

I made the mistake of giving birth to them...

So I thought...why not kill them too?

If we die together, it’s easier for all.

Look at their innocent faces.

They still have a life to live.

You're supposed to raise children not rule over them.

God hasn't given us the right to take another life...

...Including our own!

Everything happens in its own time.

Come.

Suma.

Careful.

Son-in-law,

I’ve spoken to my contacts.

Arrangements will be made for your posting in our town.

Admit Suma to a good college next year.

It will be convenient for her in the city.

Let her forget farm life and study now

But how can I send her alone to the city?

I have relatives there.

I will send my son Pramod and Manju along with her.

Let them stay together.

Okay.

Why are you both sitting here like this?

Mom…

Why...?

Why have you made them sit outside like that?

Let them get used to it now...

It will be easier in 'that' house.

Mom...

But we had agreed to their terms before we got married.

Didn't you ask them to get me an inspectors job too?

I asked because I wanted you to stand on your own feet.

Not live under their mercy!

What a shame that you have to live with your in-laws!

You cant earn a living, Go, run behind your wife now.

Please, live well.

If you speak like this...

imagine my situation, mom?

Have you ever thought about how we feel?

If we go to that house,

My kids and I will be treated worse than dirt.

Brother!

Mom!

Maybe, that is our rightful place,

I admit, I can't earn on my own.

We’ll live there as tenants.

Let the kids work too.

We don’t want to live off someone else’s money.

Not as your mother,

Can you think of me as a helpless old woman and do me one favor?

I’m old...

If I die...

Please look after these kids well.

Not as your siblings...

But as orphans or labourers.

Why are you sitting here?

I’ve been searching for you everywhere!

Mom...

Mom took me to that well again…

Brother.

Suma?

Why haven’t you gone to sleep yet?

If mother doesn’t want to move, that's okay.

We'll just keep living here.

Once I finish school this year, I'll start earning.

Let Manju continue studying.

I’ll take care of the house too.

So?

You want to quit studying for that?

I'm exhausted brother!

Every day, I'm scared that we'll drown in mom's anger...

Please go and sleep Suma.

I’ll set everything right. Go to sleep now.

Go sleep.

Pashambara.

Extremely poisonous.

If you soak it in water

for three days and three nights,

The poison seeps into the water.

Mother...

I’ve made payasa (a sweet) because you like it.

I don’t want it son. I’m sleepy.

It’s still nice and warm.

Have some.

You’ll sleep well. Go on. Try it.

What’s special today?

It’s Manju’s birthday today.

Go on, have some.

I don’t remember all that.

When people of the village find out that it was Pankaja.

...the weight of her guilt reduces...

That's the easy part.

But...

Despite being in the wrong, and not being able to tell anybody.

I've been carrying this heaviness...

...the weight of that guilt...

..Is...

is probably God's biggest punishment for the sinner.

Mom…

(Mumbles to himself)

Mother,

What else could I have done?

I didn't have a choice.

I had to look after my siblings.

Why didn’t you agree?

We could have all lived happily together till the end.

But you didn’t agree.

Because of my mistake everyone's left me.

I've become...

I've become a lonely devil.

Mother,

Will you forgive me?

Please...

Please do…
