Did you think it over?

Wearing sleeveless to play paintball?

Just tell me what's your answer.

About what?

I told you yesterday…

About talking to Dad.

My answer is the same.

There's a lot of time for it.

There's no time, Vasu.

Vasu…

I'm talking to you.

We came here to play.

I'm not saying we'll get married tomorrow.

My family has started looking out for a groom.

Before they find someone, it's better if we talk to them.

Look. You'll get into trouble thinking you're being preemptive.

- Hey, idiot. I'm on your team. - Get lost!

I understand you want time, Vasu.

Bro, I'm already out.

- Go. - See…

Telling my parents doesn't mean we're immediately getting married.

Hey, what are you doing?

- Get lost. - It'll take a year to convince my dad.

You also get your time.

Bro, it's me.

How many more left?

- Four more. - Vasu.

- One of them is right behind you. - Vasu.

I'll take care of her. You go.

Only four of us are left on our team, too.

Go, man.

Vasu.

Vasu?

Vasu…

VASU.

You could at least respond.

You're torturing me, Manu.

You're killing me.

This is exactly why I'm against love and commitment.

Wait. Come again?

This is why you're against love and commitment?

Vasu?

Vasu!

Vasu, I think we should stop seeing each other.

It was so easy for you to tell that, right?

You could have told me this directly.

I thought we'd get married someday.

I thought you were in a dilemma about getting married now or later.

But now I feel you don't even know if you want to get married.

And if that's the case,

I don't want to continue this relationship, Vasu.

Let's… Let's end this.

Right here.

Vasu, I'm sorry!

You know I didn't mean it.

Vasu…

Vasu!

Can you hear me?

Let's end this, Manu.

Okay?

Vasu, please. You know I didn't mean it.

Vasu, please. I didn't mean it!

Please, Vasu. Please, please…

- You said "let's end this", Manu. - Didn't you hear what I said all along?

Please, Vasu.

Not everyone getting married end up like your parents, Vasu.

Correct, Manu.

My dad trusted my mom till the very moment

she went with another man.

Just like how I trusted you.

But it's difficult to say when you girls will change.

Like how you changed now.

TODAY 4TH OCT, 06:10 AM

Listen, Saraswathi.

You come asking for maintenance on the first day of every month.

But you never do any work.

Did your father tell you?

What?! Half the time water doesn't come, the sink gets clogged,

and on top of this, the lift…

What about the lift? It's working, right?

Yeah, right. It keeps malfunctioning.

Because of that damn lift, my dad went into someone else's house.

I heard he opened the door when that lady was bathing.

Yes.

I had a tough time solving that problem.

- Alright you leave. I'll talk later. - Okay.

[chanting Shloka]

Go fast.

Hey, what are you doing? Can't you hear the bell?

Make it fast. You know your dad.

Manu.

Can't you hear the bell?

Can't you wake up a little early?

Without even taking a bath… This is enough for your dad and granddad…

They'll start shouting.

Take a shower before I change--

Manu…

Come. Let's take her to the hospital.

Why are you just standing? Let's go, hurry up.

Grandpa… Are you taking Aunt out?

I mean… I was just asking.

Dehydration, Dad.

There's no need to go to hospital.

I'll be fine if I take rest.

Dear…

Didn't you hear her?

No need to go to the hospital.

In case of emergency, I'll get the doctor to come home.

- Are you feeling better? - Yes.

[doorbell rings]

I think Aunty is here. Take care of her.

- Manu. Stay home. - Here you go.

What?

Nothing.

Did you beg me to come here only to touch my legs?

Hey, no. First time. So…

Look. I'm really tired after working night shift.

- Don't irritate me. - I was just going to start slowly.

It's been an hour since I came here.

You're laughing by yourself, acting shy and you come to touch my foot?

- As if… - Hey!

Don't make me scold you.

Bonda… Will anyone eat at a time like this?

What did I do now?

Listen carefully.

I'm getting late.

I need to be home before my parents get home.

If not, I'll land in trouble.

Sorry, sorry. Nothing of that sort will happen.

I'll be back in a second.

Phone…

[phone rings]

Unknown number.

- [phone rings] - Go. Get the phone.

- Not now. - Go.

- Hello? - Hello, Senthil?

- Hello? - Do you hear me, Senthil?

Manu?

- Are you at home, Senthil? - No, I'm not.

- Don't lie, Senthil. - Argh! Yes. I'm at home.

Are you busy with something?

Yes, I'm in the middle of something. I'll call you later.

- Hey, Senthil. - What?

Is Vasu there?

Stop asking questions and just tell me what you want, Manu.

Senthil. Please hear me out patiently for a minute.

No. I don't have so much time. Tell it fast.

Just listen to me.

Tell.

I've been trying to reach Vasu since morning. But he isn't answering my calls.

That's not new. He's not spoken to you for the last three months.

I know.

But I have to talk to him today.

I'm in trouble.

I can't tell this to anyone but Vasu.

Do something and get him to talk to me. Please.

Manu. You know about him. He's not going to listen to me.

I know that, Senthil.

I've never asked anything to you.

Please do this for me. Just this once.

Alright. I'll tell him.

Thanks, Senthil.

- Okay. - Hey, Senthil.

What now?

You were in the middle of something, right?

Sorry for disturbing you.

Just hang up.

I'll be back in a minute.

Hey, Vasu.

I'm talking to you, Vasu.

- What? - Where the hell is your phone?

Manu wants to talk to you. She said it's important.

My son is watching.

Go inside and smoke.

He's watching you. Go inside.

[phone rings]

Tell.

Vasu.

I became your wife the day I slept with you.

You rascal!

No one will disturb us after this.

♪ This happy world is mine ♪

- Hey. - Argh!

Hey…

What the hell do you want?

- Come. Let's go. - WHAT?!

It's an emergency. We'll come back in 10 minutes.

Step back.

Do you know what's going on inside?

- Were you eating Bonda? - Yes. I bought one on the way.

She's alone, man.

Why are you twisting?

Okay. I asked her to buy me and she bought it for me. So what?

- That's not what I asked. - Then?

You said Manu's voice was down and that she's in trouble, right?

Yes. But she's alone. What'll I tell her?

Something… Wait. I'll tell her.

Bro, you know I haven't experienced anything.

Nothing will happen in 10 minutes.

Come, let's go.

Let me atleast wear my shirt.

- I'll be there in 10 minutes sharp. Please. - Ten--

Aren't you ashamed?

Listen. Vasu said it's an emergency. I couldn't say no.

Stay put. I'll be there in 10 minutes. Exactly in 10 minutes…

Hello?

Where are we going now?

THE DAY OF THE INCIDENT

Get up, Grandpa!

Come on, Grandpa. Wake up.

Wake up, Grandpa.

- Grandpa! - Hey!

Hey.

What's going on at this hour?

- Did something happen to your dad? - Oh damn! No!

I'm fine.

Nothing is wrong with me.

They just ruined my sleep.

Do you really have to go?

You said you won't even see her face. What are you going to see now?

It's something… We need to talk and close.

Why can't you take the stairs for that?

I can…

But her parents will be there.

You're only going to talk to her, right?

Dear, it's Manu's birthday.

It's tomorrow, isn't it?

It's 12 o'clock, tomorrow already.

- So? - Let's give her a surprise, Grandpa.

- We'll surprise her tomorrow. - Dad…

Dad, Deepu wants to. Please?

Please, Grandpa!

For me. For Deepu.

- Surprise… - Yes, surprise.

Alright, go.

Anu, stop.

How could you let your daughter wear sleeveless?

- I'll get her to tie saree starting tomorrow! - As if you would!

You came to drop me, right?

Leave now.

Go on and climb, bro.

What if you fall down halfway?

You need someone to take you to the hospital.

Go on.

What are you going to do?

- Knock on the door. - Senseless girl.

Who knocks on the door to surprise?

That's all her brain works. Deepu… Door open.

Forever!

Relationships are always meant to be forever, Vasu.

See, you can fantasize these forever’s.

But it doesn't work practically.

It's not a fantasy, Vasu.

A guy will jump from the skies for me, hearts and roses, without fights--

I'm not saying we'll walk hand in hand like this.

Fights will be there every day.

We might even feel why we got committed.

We're just friends.

For example, we have an understanding.

We have good compatibility.

By chance, if we get committed…

I mean, it's just an example.

Not just the highs, we should be able to accept our stupidity, anger and lows.

Do you get it?

Vasu…

Vasu.

Tell me this isn't for fun, Vasu.

Vasu.

Tell me this means something to you.

Give me some assurance, Vasu.

How long do you want this, Manu?

Forever.

Forever it is!

Is that all?

This last medicine…

- Yes. What do you want? - Finish with him.

Jigardhanda?

Tablet?

Jigarthanda…

Here you go, sir. Now tell me.

- Yes? - What do you want?

What I actually want is…

That is…

In the morning itself.

I didn't ask for this.

- Sir, sorry. - How can you? I didn't ask for this.

You were looking at it hesitantly. So I assumed that's what you wanted.

- What is this? - That's alright.

I heard there's a strip to check if a girl is pregnant.

Give me one of those.

- What? - You could have bought this instead.

- Hey, lady! - What is it, old man?

She didn't tell me what this last medicine was.

Take it and leave.

- When should I take it? Morning or night? - Ask your wife. Now leave.

Okay.

- Madam? - Yes.

With the balance, can I get one of that?

This is for your mistake and this is for what I'm going to do.

Let's go.

Hey! We don't have time. Ask her to come and get it.

Why not? Call her.

It's not that easy to call her.

Only she can call.

Why?

Shush!

Hey!

Will you hit me?

You…

She should not go anywhere from this house.

[phone rings]

Where are you, Vasu?

I'm here, Manu. At your building entrance.

Drop it in the letter box.

- Letter box? - Yes.

On the right side of the entrance, there's a letter box for 702. Drop it in that.

Can't you come down and get it, Manu?

It'll become a problem if someone sees us together.

You drop it and leave. I'll pick it up.

Okay.

I dropped it in the letter box.

- You take it. - Okay.

Vasu?

What is it?

Come on, tell.

Happy birthday!

Hey, stop!

I said wait.

She planned so much to celebrate your birthday in this orphanage.

But you are going over the top.

Do you have a conscience?

Tell me, Manu. How many kids know when their actual birthday is?

There's no one to tell them when their birthday is.

But you decorated this place for me, sang for me, took videos…

Manu, if even one person here

thinks if someone will celebrate them like this…

All your efforts will go in vain.

I'm not saying you shouldn't give anything to anyone.

Ask them what they want.

They don't need to necessarily like the biryani you give them.

Maybe someone here wants to eat pizza.

Someone might want color pencils.

Someone might need help with their studies.

They might need a cycle.

Manu, a lot of people here

want someone they can happily talk to, instead of birthdays.

Ask them what they want.

Manu, this is… cruelty.

Sister, who's birthday is it?

I mean, I can go eat if you cut the cake.

Hey, do you like biryani?

What do you like?

Ice cream.

What do you all like?

Ice cream!

You'll get it in half an hour.

What is it, Manu?

No, it's nothing.

Ask them what they want.

All good? Shall we leave?

Hey, I'm serious. I'll be there in ten minutes.

This is exactly what you said 15 minutes back, too.

- Yet you're repeating the same thing. - Sorry!

I think you get bored when alone.

Come to the hall. You'll find a Playstation.

Connect it and play a game. I'll be home before you finish it.

Senthil…

I didn't come here to play.

What did you say?

Ah, I got it!

I'll surely be there in 10 minutes.

She's scolding me, man.

You said we could go back after giving her the strip.

But now you're saying we've to wait for her to finish the test and all.

Do I look like a fool to you?

I'm talking to you. Hey!

But one thing is for sure.

You spun stories saying you two broke up and it's all over.

Now I understand why.

Else, you'd have gone around saying, "I'm a virgin."

Talk to me.

- Brother. - How did this happen, Manu?

I don't understand. How, Manu?

- Tell me, Manu. - He goes crazy sometimes.

How can it be positive, Manu?

How?

What do you mean how, Vasu? Like how it happens with everyone.

Please don't make me shout.

Everyone's at home.

Didn't we use magic balloon? Then how is the test positive, Manu?

You've asked the same thing a zillion times.

Hmm. Yes! Keep it.

I'm asking again. Explain, please.

How did this happen?

Hey!

Did you even read what's written behind that box?

- No. - Go and read it.

Bro! Come and have your tea. It's getting cold.

Hey, what are you doing?

Hey, stop. Your nails are hurting me.

Hey!

It's Jigarthanda.

How can one read something that's written in such small font?

Shall I get a bigger pack? Maybe that'll have it written in a bigger font.

Brother.

Is that size big enough?

Even in this big banner, it's unreadable.

Every kid is a good kid when it's born.

It's the mother's raising as to how he grows.

They don't grow on their own.

It's all nothing.

It all depends on how we raise them.

Upbringing.

You can wish for something.

Try till that child reaches an age.

But once that kid grows and understands life's reality…

It's not in our control as to how this society will influence the kid.

Like you… Like me…

That kid is also an individual.

A mystery basically.

I'm curious about it.

It's expensive, Manu.

Huh?!

Waste of money, waste of time, waste of energy.

It's a torture for the entire life.

Very difficult.

No need.

I don't care. I need a baby.

What?

I'll think about it.

What have you thought about this, Vasu?

No need, Manu.

Let's abort this pregnancy.

Is that your final decision?

Abortion is a sin, bro.

Will you raise the kid I give birth to?

You want…, and give the diaper to me?

Not happening. It's just an abortion.

Let's try it the natural way with papaya and sesame seeds.

What if something happens to her because of the medication?

What do you mean?

- What will happen? - Anything can happen.

It might even be dangerous to her life.

Damn it! What do I do now?

Let's get some doctor's help. It's always good.

Which doctor will help--

You had her in mind, right?

Who "her"?

Oh, her? No, it's you who has her in mind.

I just meant, your friend, my friend or a friend of a friend…

I told you to ask your friend. I didn't think of her. I already have only ten minutes.

Hey! Do you even understand the seriousness?

I don't know who Dinesh is.

You say you're his friend. How'll I know you?

You're saying it’s a pre-marital pregnancy.

Neither do the parents know.

No guardian either. Then how?

That girl can't come out of her house?

Then how will I do the procedure?

Should I cast a spell?

- Not possible. No chance. - Not possible. No chance.

What happened? Did they say no?

How will they? It has too many risks involved.

You played your game. Why would other play along?

- You're still talking with her in mind. - She's your only choice.

Think about it.

[phone rings]

Hello? Hello…

Please, please.

I definitely can't, Senthil. Please don't waste my time.

Geetha, I really need your help. Please don't say no.

You're talking without understanding its seriousness. This is no game.

Why should I risk my medical license for some random person?

So, that's your problem?

Then you'll help if it's for a known person.

- Hold on. - That's not what I meant. Senthil…

Senthil?

Did you see my phone? I kept it here.

- It'll be there only. Check properly. - I'm asking you.

Why would I take your phone?

If you didn't, then did Deepu take it?

- Ask her. - Mom…

Your phone is here.

I've told you to keep my phone back in its place.

How are you, Aunty?

How could you cut your hair?

How are you feeling now?

I'm feeling better.

- What happened? - Dehydration.

Oh God!

Sister…

Deepu is playing with the jewels.

I just saw her playing on the bed.

- How dare she… - You could have taken it from her yourself.

She doesn't listen to me.

Uh oh!

I think he's pooped. Come. We'll clean him.

- Everyone is the same. - Yes.

Hey, bro. Come in. Geetha is calling you.

Surprise!

Damn, I thought so!

- Geetha, please. Listen to me. - Vasu… Get out.

- You better get out. - Geetha, please hear me out.

- I don't want to hear anything. Just leave. - Geetha… Sister…

Please, sister.

[phone rings]

What's going on? You came, then he's here.

Where is that girl? Is she waiting outside?

Ask her to come in.

She hasn't come.

Why?

Her parents are strict.

- They won't send her out. - Oh!

What a modest girl! Who is she?

Manu!

What happened? You look so happy!

Here, take this.

Hey!

You look pregnant!

Manu?

You said you broke up and you haven't spoken to her in like 2.5 months?

That's what I thought too.

This is Kaliyug. It's difficult to gauge how a person is.

Am I right, bro?

I'll kill you!

Geetha, please. Don't give me that look.

No one can help me right now.

Hey!

Just think what'll happen if Manu's parents find out.

Please.

- Please? - When did this happen?

What?

Bro, it's…

She's asking when you had… Am I right, sister?

A few days ago.

I need a date.

I don't know the exact date.

It's been a few days though.

Geetha…

Hey, Geetha!

Why are you shouting?

Is this such a big mistake?

It's just a date.

I need the date to calculate her pregnancy. Without that I can't do anything.

- Bro, what's today's date? - I'll kill you, Khuska!

What should I do now, Geetha?

Act responsible.

I don't go around with calendar in my hand.

August 7.

What?

You climbed seven floors on a pipe for her birthday, didn't you?

Did you forget that already?

He came back shirtless. That's how mad he was.

- Climbed the pipe? - It's an easy task for him.

- Can't you keep quiet? - You should have that day.

Where are you going? Stop.

Hey, listen.

Had you kept it zipped while you were…, you wouldn't be in trouble now.

Shush! This is a hospital.

Tell that to him.

- [phone rings] - Hello?

- Hello, hello. Baby… - Where the hell are you, Khuska?

It's just not gone to the media. Everyone actually knows.

- We'll do it after that. - Geetha.

Do something. Please.

Listen, Vasu. I think you're being hasty.

Let's wait for ten days and then see.

What if her cycles are delayed?

She's very sure. She's had symptoms too.

She tested and it turned out positive.

- HCG? - Huh?!

Did she use the strip?

- Yes. - We can't be sure just with that.

I think you must bring her in. Let me check her once.

There's no chance I can do that.

- Is there any other way? - We must confirm her pregnancy first.

I need to do an ultrasound for that.

Ah, okay. How do you do that?

Idiot. You can't do that. She has to come here.

Only when we test here, we'll know if there's growth or not and confirm.

I really don't know how to make you understand.

Geetha, she cannot come here.

Can we do something else to confirm this?

Think, please.

Any other way?

Deepu.

- Deepu, did you take the jewel box? - Why?

Did Aunt Manu tell you?

Hey, I'm done.

Where's your phone?

Phone…

- I'm okay. - I'll be there in 10 minutes.

What did she say?

Can I get her urine sample?

It'll be here in half an hour.

How did you raise him like this?

Get going.

Hey wait, you naughty boy!

[phone rings]

What took you so long to call, Manu?

Sorry, sorry! What did Geetha say?

Phone…

Let me help you.

Come.

I'll be there in 15 minutes. Keep your urine sample ready.

Yes, yes.

- Do you hear me, Manu? - I'll keep it ready.

Manu?

Manu…

We should be careful.

Enquire about him.

Check the horoscope…

Didn't I tell you?

You'll never change, will you?

24 HOURS AFTER THE INCIDENT

You haven't eaten anything from yesterday.

I don't want.

- Eat atleast one-- - I SAID I DON'T WANT.

Dad!

What are you doing?

Why can't you eat?

Do you think all the problems will get solved if you don't eat?

You need to take your tablets, Dad.

Please.

Sister…

Sister…

I'm planning to get a haircut.

Eat.

Son-in-law…

Are you eating? Alright, go on.

Does it taste good?

If the salt is less, you can add extra.

Add some more salt, Grandpa.

Dad, forget him. You eat.

Please eat.

Oh, God!

She's dead.

Damn it!

She's doing it wantedly.

She's decided to push me into the drains.

Look at her.

After all she did, she doesn't have the least remorse.

Didn't I raise her well?

- Please… - Hey, what please?

She's cut her hair to imply I'm just equal to that.

- Come on, relax. - Don't you understand?

Please be patient, Dad.

I need to be patient? She's to be blamed.

- What did I do wrong? - What happened?

- Your granddaughter is cursing me. - Dad, please stop shouting.

Don't jump on the bed, Deepu.

Okay, I won't. Will you give me a haircut?

- What did we do wrong? - Stay away.

- Move. - Why are you shouting at me?

- Ask him to stop, Mom. - Anu…

- I said don't jump. - Okay!

- [phone rings] - I'll stop talking.

- Vasu. - Every time I look at this sofa…

Deepu, give me the phone.

- Hello? - Give me the phone.

- Hello? - What do you want?

- I'm better off dead! - Dad, don't!

Everyone at home are ashamed of me.

- Hello? - You're the reason for everything.

Don't drag him into this.

Don't you dare disrespect my dad.

Grandpa!

After all that has happened, you still want romance.

I pity you!

I'm definitely going to bang that baldy to the wall someday.

Wait and watch.

He'll get stoned to death in the middle of the road one day.

Mark my words.

Dear…

She doesn't get a phone after this.

If she touches anyone's mobile…

They'll be sent out of this house.

Now move.

Dear…

Caught you!

TODAY OCT 04, 11:59 AM

TODAY OCT 04, 12:00 PM

Hey, give it back.

Hey, what happened?

My phone is missing.

- It's on charge. - Let me irritate her.

Hello? Hello.

Hello, Vasu. Where are you?

I'm in your building only.

Where's the sample? How long should I wait near the letterbox?

Who'll even keep it there, Vasu?

Okay. Where is it?

It's with me.

- With you? - Yes.

I can't bring it down, Vasu. The situation here is too bad.

They'll close the lab in an hour, Manu.

I need to give the sample before that.

I can't do anything about that, Vasu.

I'm clueless about what to do next with what's happening around.

Please be patient.

Patient--

Manu, did you even hear me?

I need to take the sample to the lab in an hour.

Vasu, the sample is with me.

Come and get it if you really need it.

Manu?

What the? What are you even talking?

How'll I come and get it?

Come out fast.

Manu?

- Hold on, Vasu. - What happened?

Hello?

Are you there? Respond, Manu.

Manu…

- Coming, Mom. - Open the door.

Come. Everyone's here.

- Vasu, do something. Figure out a way to get it. - Manu.

But whatever happens, don't disconnect this call.

I'll be back. Think of a way in the meantime.

Please, please.

Figure out a way to get it?

Only way is to go to the house.

Let's do one thing.

Ask her to throw it from the balcony and we'll catch it.

- What say? - Bad idea.

That won't work out.

What if she throws it somewhere and the bottle breaks?

We can get another bottle.

She isn't running a juice shop,

to get another bottle if one breaks.

We've only one.

Bro, I have an idea.

[fire alarm rings]

Lift your legs.

Open the doors.

Open all the door.

- Go inside. - Bring Deepu here.

I said go inside.

- Stand together. - Who the hell are you?

- Stand together. - Dad…

- Don't shout. - Stand properly.

Finger on your lips.

I said finger on your lips. Ladies, stand to my left.

And men to my right. Come on.

- Hey, go that side. - Sorry, I forgot!

One thing that we need is in this house.

We'll leave after taking it. If someone tries to stop, I'll shoot you.

- No, no! - Hey, stand still.

Attention! Attention!

Soldier, what you need is behind that door.

Go and take it.

- Oh God! - Hey, attention! Stand at ease.

What is it?

- Oh my! - Go. Don't let it drip. Bring it carefully.

- Dad, Manu… - Where are you looking at?

Look at me. Not there.

- Vasu… - Manu!

Manu, where is the sample?

One minute.

Damn, Manu. I asked for testing and not for mixing.

Take this.

Bro… Hey!

Listen to me.

- Bro, wait. Where are you going? - I don't know.

[doorbell rings]

Who is it?

We'll know only if we go and check.

Correct.

- Go and check. - Hmm…

- Who are you? - Plumber, sir.

- Plumber? - Yes. He's the plumber and I'm his supervisor.

Saras said you aren't getting water in your tap. Let me check.

Saras said?!

That guy downstairs, who has a cute round face and wears a nose pin.

I told Saras this morning that the sink is clogged.

Let them in.

Did you buy this flat when you were born?

This house looks very old.

Too much smoke!

A very familiar smell.

- Garam masala? - Come, I'll tell you.

Slowly!

Where are you going?

I'm going to check the line at the balcony, sir.

There's no pipeline there.

It's inside. You can't see.

- Go and sit. - Sir.

Go!

"Oliyum Oliyum"

Here's one of your favorite songs.

Hey!

Uff. What is it, sir?

What do you want?

Take the box.

Take it I say.

Remove the clog.

- Me? - Of course. Make it quick.

Hey, oldie! What's this squishy mush?

I can't clean this.

- How'll anyone unclog this? - Like this.

Go on. Dig in. Come on, unclog it.

Are you kidding me? I'll kill you!

Hey!

- Hello, Vasu. - Hello? Manu, Manu!

- Where are you, Vasu? - Where are you?

In your room, right?

- Yes. What's your plan? - Okay. Come to the balcony.

- Balcony? - I'm at your neighbor's balcony. Come now.

Ah, okay.

Sir, sir.

Sir, please.

Sir, take your legs. Please!

Bro…

Please, bro!

Love matter!

Love matter.

I'm at the balcony. Where are you?

- I'm also at the balcony. - Where, Manu?

- Are you at the balcony attached to the hall? - No, my room balcony. Where are you?

Manu, I know your room balcony better than you.

Vasu, Vasu…

Did you take the lift or the stairs?

I took the lift. Why?

- Shit! - What happened?

- Hey, Vasu. - Manu?

Look down.

- Down? - Yes.

- Hi. - What are you doing there, Manu?

There's a problem in that lift.

I'll explain that later.

Manu, did you get a haircut?

Grandpa, Grandpa…

Grandpa, look at me.

In that?

Alright. Throw it to me.

Okay.

Hey, wait.

No, wait.

Keep that down and throw something else.

Are you stereotyping? Do you think I don't know how to throw?

I throw well.

Gosh! You throw well.

I need to practice how to catch.

Throw something else.

Okay.

Yes. Throw it.

Throw it to me.

Right here. Target and throw.

[man screaming]

He won't be dead, no?

Don't throw. I'll come there.

Hey, what are you going to do?

Don't ask questions. Go and bring a stool.

Okay.

- I shouldn't have let you inside the house. - Listen to me, Grandpa.

[phone rings]

- It's an emergency, oldie. - No. I can't give time.

Grandpa!

Vasu! What are you doing here?

Didn't you find a bigger stool?

This is all I have in my room.

- Please. It's an emergency. - Not possible. No.

- Please! I beg you! - No!

Manu, try to give it to me.

I'm trying, Vasu.

He didn't even open his mouth the other day.

- Please. It's an emergency. - Not happening.

Hey!

- Hello? - Dumb head!

Ten minutes. I'll be there in 10 minutes.

I don't care when you come.

Why the hell did you lock me inside?

A little more.

Manu, a little higher.

It's asking for a key even to open the door from the inside.

He's talking like a complete jerk.

Hey, Grandpa! She's doing something from the balcony.

- Manu, a little higher. Just one inch. - Okay.

If you don't come here in 10 minutes, I'll jump off the balcony.

Ten minutes. I'll be there in exactly 10 minutes.

Go on, stab me!

She's threatening to jump off the balcony.

- Careful! - Hey!

What are you doing?

Just like that… Getting some fresh air.

- What happened, Dad? - Nothing. Trying to get some fresh air too.

Love matter!

THE OTHER DAY

It was his fault for delivering it to the wrong address.

Be respectful, Vasu.

Fine, my bad.

You don't even know who he is. He should've collected it instead.

And here you are, delivering it yourself.

What if they’re setting a trap?

Be careful who you trust, Manu!

Why the long face now?

Is it because I told you not to deliver this,

or my comment on Aravind-Jayashri’s relationship?

I'm talking to you.

You passed a comment so casually like you've known them.

I said it in general.

This concept of being together, forever is a myth and impossible, practically.

Your disbelief doesn't mean it doesn’t exist.

Having experienced it, my belief in it lessened.

Oh, please. Let's not start this.

Have you never met people who've been together for a long time?

The crowd’s mostly people who’ve been together, and you know it!

Yes, I agree.

That's because they don't have a choice.

Ask around, and you'll see that commitment starts out rosy.

As it progresses, it'll become a lot of work.

This social structure,

observing everyone's lives,

watching movies, listening to songs and reading similar novels…

This emotional influence each media has exposed us all

is what this emotion of love and construency of marriage is all about.

Emotional what?

Are you saying it isn't?

Manu,

to me, the best invention by man

is this construct of family.

Like caste, creed, religion, love is also manmade.

And there is nothing holy about it.

What's the matter?

Hey!

Are you pissed with me?

Did I just prove your idealogy wrong--

Manu!

We can talk--

You'd say let's talk it out.

Talk to me.

Okay…

Can you smile at least?

- Sir, your parcel-- - Oh, thanks!

Nowadays, people don't have time to…

Manu?

Oi!

Hey…

What's the matter, Vasu?

Why's your tongue tied now?

Smile for me, please?

Are you sad that they snapped your "idealogy" into dust?

I know you must’ve cringed on the inside while seeing that.

That's how life is, by the way.

TODAY OCT 4TH 12:56PM

- I can't deal with it! - Give me 10!

- I promise. Will be there in 10. - Keep lying straight to my face!

Hello?

Aren't you Dr. Geetha's brother?

What?

I asked if you're Dr. Geetha's brother.

Umm… Yeah.

I know why you're here.

Since your sister's a doctor, she'll come to your help anytime.

But for the others,

I'm their savior, right?

Forget about that.

If one of your friends need help,

or if you face the same situation again,

will you come to your sister for help?

Won't you feel embarrassed to?

Who the hell are you?

Take it easy, dude.

If at all you need any help regarding this

one call to me and I'm at your service.

- Okay? - I won't need your help.

I feel you'll need it a lot.

So, keep it and call me.

Sir!

Are you Dr. Geetha's brother?

Good heavens. How many of you will ask me this?

Can you give us your sample already?

Oh, damn. My bad.

I need only this much.

Use how much you need and dump out the rest.

I'm starting now, baby. Dude, let's leave?

- Let's wait till the results come. - Heck no! She's already pissed with me.

Senthil, please!

I’m about to lose my mind from the suspense.

What if Geetha was right in the strip being false?

And what if the test results come negative?

That’s when the madness will stop.

The end to your problems and mine

lies in the test results if it comes negative.

Dude, it will, right?

Don't worry, man.

It will come negative.

- Hello? Hello! Still here, Mayil? - What did you just call me?

I only said your name. Sorry, baby.

Is this your first?

- What? - I mean, you're waiting for your scan report…

You could say that.

My turn's done. Waiting for my report to come.

I see.

I don’t know how many times it’s been for me.

In my four years of marriage, we've often thought it was positive.

But after looking at the scan monitor,

there was nothing.

All of them were false alarms.

Ma'am…

- You're indeed lucky. - Say what?

Nothing.

This time, we did it!

I saw it on the screen. A tiny sac's formed.

So tiny, and shaped like a bean!

Sorry if I annoyed you with my excitement.

I'll let you be in peace.

I'm sure it'll come positive for you too!

Stay strong.

I've a good feeling it will!

What's wrong?

I'm going to buy a box of sweets.

- Didn't go? - Will go after the results.

Oh, okay.

Hey!

Are you here to laugh at his lame jokes?

Why else am I here then?

Why else, huh…

Manu, please.

Okay?

Manu, don't bite your lip. Please, I really want to kiss you!

- What the… - Hi, hi!

Who is she?

My girl.

Didn't hear you.

Girlfriend! She's my girlfriend!

Good for you!

Are you two going to marry each other?

Didn't catch that.

Are you two marrying each other?

Umm…

Yeah!

That's amazing.

You guys continue then.

I'm going back inside.

- Bye! - Thanks.

Who was that aunty?

Whoa, stop with the assumptions. I couldn't even see her fac--

Get up, dude.

Get up and listen to me.

I can't wait any longer. Her dad will come any minute.

I can't handle it if it blows up so I'm leaving.

Hey, hey, hey. Hang on. Hang on, please.

Please, please.

You waited so long, wait a little longer for me?

- We'll leave as soon as it comes. - Like heck you would!

[phone rings]

Hang on, dude.

- Hello… Manu? - Hello, Vasu?

How's everything?

I've given it to get it tested. Waiting for the results to come.

What?

Did you really do it?

- I did. - And?

They haven't said anything as of now.

Did they say anything else?

What's the matter? Why do you sound flustered?

Nothing of that sort.

I've been like this since morning.

Manu, this wasn't how you sounded before.

I said, it's nothing!

Is there something you want to tell me?

What is left to tell you?

Are you hiding something from me?

[door knocks]

Manu…

She hung up on you I see.

She's playing the fool with you, dude!

I don't think she's pregnant.

- What are you on about? - Give it a thought, will you?

When she told you in the morning that she can't step out of the house

how was she able to get to the letterbox then?

Alright, let's just say she got it somehow.

Why complicate things when she could’ve done the same here?

You know why?

She was scared that she'd get caught had you given it earlier.

Which explains why she made you run in circles.

You somehow evaded it all and gave in the sample.

When the results come, you'll know for sure who's lying to whom.

Why would she complicate this, man?

You still don't get it, do you?

It's because she wants you.

She reached out to you many times in the last few months

but you turned your face on her.

Now, you yearn to hear from her.

Oh, man! I now get it!

Soon, her family will know about it.

No, no. She'll ensure that they do.

She knows her father will never accept your marriage to her.

But if she breaks open the lie, he will cause a huge scene

and the climax of it all will be…

him giving his blessing for you to marry her.

Then you'll be screwed. For life!

That little lie of hers…

will resolve both of her issues.

Dude, can I tell you something?

I…

That night, I wore a magic balloon.

Masterstroke!

Sir, the doctor is calling you.

Go on.

So, tell me, Geetha. Things are fine, right?

What do you take me for?

- What's wrong? - Hey!

You can fool me.

But I am a doctor.

Shouldn’t you know by now that test reports can’t fool me?

- Yes! - What do you mean?

Geetha, be clear.

Hey, you still don't get it?

How many times do I have to tell you? She’s not pregnant!

Geetha, he’s as good as an idiot.

She's not pregnant. She's lying about it.

Heard enough? Come, let's get going.

Did I say that she's not pregnant?

Oh… so, she is pregnant?

Are the test results positive?

Yes.

That’s exactly what I’ve been telling him all day.

Why are you surprised?

He's doomed!

Going by your logic, she should be around six weeks pregnant, right?

But when we ran a sample test, her HCG levels were over 32,000!

So, that means she’s probably 2-3 months pregnant.

You guys weren’t alone at any point during those 2-3 months.

I need clarity here. Is it two or three months? Just tell me the date.

It’s not something we can pin down exactly.

Okay, Geetha. You said you'd help me, right? Do something!

- When did I ever say that? - Geetha!

If it had been one and a half months, you’d have helped me, right?

Three days or three months. What’s the big difference anyway?

It does make a difference, Vasu.

Medically, this poses a much greater risk!

Aborting a three-month-old fetus in a non-medical condition…

You think this is no big deal?

It may put her life at risk!

And morally speaking, this is a sin, Vasu.

Feel bad for me.

I’m totally stuck in this mess.

Instead of helping me, you’re talking about logic!

Are you crazy?

This isn’t something you can fix with a pill and hope it’s all better tomorrow.

Do you even know what the process is and how it's really done?

Any idea how much pain this will cause?

If you knew what’s involved, you would be against this.

Vasu.

Being so fixed on abortion as the solution doesn’t solve everything.

Think beyond.

This situation can be resolved in ways other than abortion.

Why don't you marry Manu?

What are you saying?

I didn’t come to you for marriage advice.

I came to talk about aborting this baby.

- Just help me out with this. - Hey…

I couldn’t help but worry that your life was still the same.

Once Manu came into your life, I felt at ease.

You were sorted!

She completes you, Vasu.

Not everyone who gets married ends up like our parents.

Tell me just one good reason why you don’t want her.

- I have a thousand! - Just tell me one solid reason.

She's asking you! Tell her.

I have many.

I don’t need a list, just give me one reasonable reason.

Tell-- This won't do.

She's getting engaged to someone tomorrow.

That's the reason. Happy?

- Hello? - Hey, I said I'll be there in ten minutes, didn't I?

Hang up!

Is he telling the truth?

Yes.

Do you realize how much you've complicated things?

This isn’t just about you.

At this point, the best thing to do is talk to Manu and reach a compromise.

If you can’t talk to her parents, just let me know. I’ll do it for you.

Tell me straight. Can you abort the baby or not?

There’s nothing else you need to do for me.

Get out.

Phew! I can go home now.

- Come on. - Vasu.

We didn’t postpone having a child because we didn’t want one,

do you get that?

Every child is born with goodness.

It’s the mother who shapes whether they turn good or bad.

How the kid decides to grow up!

I don't care what you say. I want a child.

What?

Let me think about it.

- Come again! - Hey-- Manu!

Manu! Hey, please. Please!

Okay. Okay.

I’m all in for this baby, and you want to think it over?

What? What?

- Okay. Okay. - What "okay?"

- Huh? Tell me! What "okay?" - Okay!

- For you… - For me?

Let's have only one.

I’m thinking of talking to my parents.

About what?

Us, dummy!

What's wrong, Vasu?

Why… all of a sudden?

We’ll have to tell them sooner or later, right?

I think you’re rushing into this.

[mobile rings]

- Yes. - Where were you all day?

- Oh God! - What? What happened?

- I'll be there in ten minutes. - Got it!

- Hey! - Will be there soon.

- Wait for me. - Go somewhere else.

- No, I'll come. - You don't have to come home.

Senthil’s in an emergency. He needs me there in ten. I’ve got to go.

See you later.

Will you?

Tomorrow morning at 10.

Paintball arena.

We'll meet there.

- Did you think it over? - About what?

About talking to Dad.

I'm not saying we should get married tomorrow.

You'll get into trouble thinking you're being preemptive.

Vasu? Vasu?

VASU!

This is exactly why I'm against love and commitment.

Vasu! Vasu! I think we should stop seeing each other.

I don’t think I can keep going with this relationship.

Let's end this right here.

Open the door, Vasu.

Vasu, come on. Open.

Open the door.

Vasu… Vasu, please. Let me see you one last time.

Vasu, if you don’t open this door now, you won’t see me again.

[wedding song playing]

Are you in love with him?

It’s been about two months since we broke up, hasn’t it?

- How can you move on so soon? - Vasu, people are watching.

How long has this been going on for?

Did you just start dating, or were you seeing each other while we were together?

You used to say something…

Yes! Forever! Forever!

Like, happily ever after!

Is this what that is?

Oh! So, this was your forever thing?

Shut up, Vasu!

How can you even talk to me now?

You have no right to question me.

Why do you get mad when I show up with someone?

How many times have I waited at your doorstep over the past month?

How many times have I called you?

Forget it, not once did you answer my texts!

You walked away and never looked back!

After everything, you have the audacity to come to me and yell?

People like you have no right to say forever!

After being together for a year, what do you really know about me?

Not a single damn thing, Vasu!

If you actually knew me, you wouldn’t be throwing those words around.

You’re just blurting out whatever you want, right?

Are you insane?

Listen to me.

You don't have any fucking rights over me, Vasu!

You’re the one who said it’s over between us, right?

Let's leave things that way.

Don’t ever come near me again!

Vasu!

What are you doing here?

You dumped everything you had to say and walked off?

Then, who will listen to me?

- What are you doing here? - Now, it's your turn to listen.

- You said something…what was that? - Why aren't you wearing your shirt?

- That I blamed you for everything? - Answer me, Vasu!

- Why aren't you wearing your shirt? - What did you do today then?

Why did you take off your shirt?

- What am I talking and… - Tell me, why isn't your shirt on?

It stuck on the balcony--

You'd say something, right? What is that?

Forever and always.

Happily ever after!

Wow!

But it’s not just with me,

- it’s the same with everyone you’re with. - Stop talking like an idiot!

So, I’m the fool now? Who’s that idiot you were with?

If he's your fiancé, you'd take him everywhere you go?

Are you jealous?

Hey! Jealous, my foot.

That's none of my business.

I wanted to prove that forever doesn’t exist.

He’s just a guy your parents matched you with.

Yes, just a guy my parents matched me with.

That fool kept torturing me for a whole week to see me!

I avoided him as much as I could.

I told him I was going to a wedding when he called today, just to avoid him.

The only thing I did wrong was mention the venue.

- Idiot, can't believe he showed up! - Manu, you can lie as much as you want.

If you didn’t want to deal with him, you could've spoken to him outside and sent him away!

- You didn’t have to introduce him to your friends. - You’re in no position to question me.

- Here we go again! - Shut up, you!

I was furious the other day.

Whenever I talk about marriage, you just dodge the conversation.

I have no idea what your intention is.

When I said we could break up, I thought it'd make you act and talk to my parents.

You had nothing else to threaten me with, right?

The other day, you were in the same room lying here with me in this very same bed.

When Senthil called, you quickly found an excuse and rushed out!

How do you think I'd feel about that?

What am I saying and what are you talking about?

You lied, didn't you?

Manu, you're pinning everything on me! You're cornering me.

Corner?

Wait, what? You’re angry just because I pointed out something that you did?

This won't work out.

This will never work out.

I shouldn't have come here. I'm leaving.

Let's talk it through.

[old popular Tamil song plays]

Son-in-law! Ask him to remove that shirt on!

Grandpa! Here.

- Dad… - Shut up.

Ask her not to call me that.

I was going to talk to you about our love matter.

Love…matter?

Where’s the love in all of this?

Yeah, we never saw that!

Be quiet, Dad.

Are you both in love?

- No. - Wow! Amazing.

What? We broke up, remember?

- This is the guy you settled for? - Hello!

- Be respectful. - Shall I call you 'Sir' then?

Manu, tell your dad to speak to me with respect.

Look here.

What you’re thinking didn’t happen here at all.

Oh, I see.

In your family, eloping and barging into homes is normal.

But not here.

What kind of trash did you find this guy in?

- Hey, better mind your language! - What, are you going to slap me now?

Go on! Come on, slap!

Do one thing.

Go home and call your mother.

Tell her you climbed up seven floors

and barged into a girl’s place at midnight.

She’ll smack you with a slipper, won't she?

In a well-raised family, that’s what would happen.

- God knows how his family is - Oh God!

Murder! He's going to kill him!

Shut up, oldie! Stop rambling on!

I'll smash that thing!

It's on me.

You're angry over something you think happened, right?

That never happened!

So… nothing happened?

I've been here a few times.

But I didn’t climb seven flights.

I just came through the door.

You weren't here then.

On this very sofa, in the kitchen and in that bedroom.

We did everything.

Shall I say something?

I never came on my own.

Your daughter called me.

You were talking?

Talk now!

Eat the cake.

Manu!

Manu, I didn’t do this to insult you…

Am I that worthless to you now?

I’m telling you now,

it's over!

[door slams]

From now on…

she’s not allowed to leave this house.

Today, October 04th. 05:41 P.M.

- Bro, what's wrong with him? - No, Manu. I don’t know.

You have to tell me!

Manu…

- There’s nothing else we can do. - I’m talking to you.

Manu, how is it possible?

How is it possible?!

Vasu, why do you always restart from the beginning?

I’ve been telling you since morning.

Manu… Manu…

Manu, I don’t know! Geetha told me the strip isn’t always right.

Leave that. What did I say to you?

I expected the urine test to turn out negative.

How can you expect something like that?

Manu, but I wore the magic balloon that day.

Spare me the magic balloon talk.

Why?

Vasu…

by your logic,

if I’m pregnant after all this,

there are only two possibilities.

What is it, Manu?

Either,

- I’ve been with someone else. - Hey!

I asked 'how?'. Not 'who?'

The other possibility is,

did you look behind the box?

No!

Check it now.

Hey, I’ve got nothing on me.

What is it, Vasu? Why are you coming at me?

Want to see what’s written behind the box?

Come in, I'll show you.

This star is where the twist is.

99%?

- What about the remaining 1%? - That's right.

Even with the balloon, there’s a chance the girl might get pregnant.

Hey, if that’s true, this should only happen to one in a million.

- Why did it happen to me? - Hey, Vasu.

Don’t you see? You’re it.

You’re the one in a million!

No one, not even a hundred men, can open that door.

- Hey, hey! - Wait right there, I’ll be back in 10 minutes.

Listen, her dad knows.

I can’t take it anymore.

I’m talking to you.

Who are you calling?

- Bro, let's do it. - Are you calling Mayil's dad?

This savior will save you.

You!

If I brought the strip, wouldn’t I have given the bottle?

Why risk so much?

If Vasu finds out you know, he’ll be even more scared.

Dad’s already a pain.

Where’s Vasu now?

Okay, so what have you two decided?

Vasu wants me to abort.

Put Vasu aside.

What’s your decision?

Do you want to keep this child?

What about Vasu?

I want him too.

If I can only have one of the two, I’d rather let go of both.

Are you sure?

Vasu’s a good person.

His mom abandoned him when he was five.

When he turned twelve, his dad died.

He had to grow up alone.

Even after everything that happened, he asked me how, not who.

Then why…

don't you call him?

Why?

In all these twelve hours,

he never once asked me what I wanted.

Why should I even call him?

Manu…

There’s only a fine line between self-respect and ego.

If that’s well understood, many relationships can be saved.

Take us, for instance.

If one of us had just apologized at the right time…

We wouldn’t have gone our separate ways.

'He didn’t ask!' 'He didn’t say!'

Stop making these remarks and

just go tell him what you really want.

Listen…

compromising for the people you love isn’t a bad thing.

Call him.

Tell him it’s alright, and we’ll keep the baby.

Vasu will listen to you.

Here.

Let him know that you want this.

[phone rings]

- Vasu… - I’ve picked up the tablets, Manu.

I’ll get it to you in 15 minutes.

We’ll end everything by then.

Manu?

Not today, Vasu.

Things aren’t right here.

Meet me tomorrow after I give you a call.

[intense door knocks]

Make way. Please move.

Have you called an ambulance?

[door knocks continue]

Give me the key!

Weren’t you the last one to come out?

You were the first one out, so you must have the key.

- So, the key is… - Hey!

For God’s sake, can someone open this door?

- Baby… - What?!

Are you in front of the door?

- Yes! - On your right,

do you see a shoe rack?

- A shoe rack. - Yeah, it’s right there!

Is there a white shoe on top of the shoe rack?

- Yes! I see the damn shoe! - You’ll find the key there.

Just wait, I’ll deal with you.

Mayil, my love! I'm here. [slap sound]

Thanks.

I’m staying here from today. My dad agreed too.

Who is he to agree to this?

You should’ve thought of this before locking me in here.

Your 'I’ll be here in ten minutes' turned out to be twelve hours.

My dad started asking

where I was, saying he’d come pick me up.

How long can I act?

After a certain point, I lost it.

I said I trusted an idiot and

got myself locked in the house alone.

My dad said, ‘You stay there.’

- So, I'm staying here. - Hey!

How can you live in a bachelor pad?

Living together won’t work out.

I'll handle that.

Did anyone ask for your permission?

Vasu, is it a problem if I live here?

As long as everything, from rent to food and booze, is divided three ways,

I'm okay with it.

I'm okay with it too!

I'm not okay with this.

Why are you taking her seriously?

Hey, don't render the file.

The director wanted to reconcile them.

Why does he keep switching?

He wanted them to split,

so why alter the climax?

He wants them to have a happy ending now.

To hell with happy endings!

Didn’t you see my ending? It sunk!

- Soon, yours will sink as well. - Hey!

What’s with the loud voice?

Just because they do it in movies…

doesn’t mean we should too.

Aren't you the supervisor?

So, help him understand this.

Hey, that director’s crazy!

Him and his never-ending antics.

I’m hungry. Let’s get some food.

- Hey, are you really serious about living here? - Hmm.

That’s not going to work. Come on, I’ll drop you home.

Are you going to drop me off?

- Yes! Let’s go. - Darling…

You can’t just drop me off.

Are you ready to talk to my dad?

I'll talk to him.

Hello, when I say 'talk,' I mean talk about us.

Yes, I’ll do that. Go get ready.

I’ll get my bag.

Buddy, get ready. We’ll go drop her off.

Since Morning…

Let me finish this cigarette in peace and I'll come.

Fine!

I’ll be back after I use the bathroom.

- Uncle! - What is it?

Look at this, uncle.

Look here. Can you see me?

Uncle, right here.

Look at this, uncle. Don't leave.

Uncle, don't go! Uncle, please.

- Uncle… - What's up with that aunty?

Not the aunty, the child.

- Someday, I’ll show him. - It's getting late.

- Shall we start? - Yeah, we'll head out.

Let's go. Let's go.

- Uncle! - This time, don’t forget the key.

- I’ve got it in my pocket. - Uncle, don't go.

- Please, come back. - Hey, pass me the key.

- Why are you asking for it? - Give it, I say.

- Please come back, uncle. - What is it?

- Hey, we're getting late. - Uncle…

- Where is he going? - Uncle!

- Wait, I don't know. - Uncle!

Uncle!

- Uncle! - Why hasn’t he switched off the torch?

- Go, check him out. - Uncle, do you see me?

- Let me see. - Uncle, help me, please.

Uncle, come here.

Help me, please.

What happened?

Kid?

Open the door.

Hey, what happened?

Mom!

- Go, start the car. - What happened?

It will be alright, buddy.

- Come soon. - Start the car.

Go ahead! I'll handle things.

Hurry!

My baby…

Nothing’s going to happen.

Baby's dad…

Careful.

It's okay, kid.

Nurse, please inform the doctor.

Mom's going to be alright.

Listen, let's call your dad.

Give me your dad's number.

Don't you know his number?

He's not here.

Okay, do you have any relatives around?

Grandma!

Do you know her number?

- Give us her number. - 7…6…2…5

Sir!

Give it to me!

What's the patient's name?

Hey!

What's your mom's name?

- Nurse, see if the doctor is here. - What happened?

Don’t worry, she’ll be here in two minutes.

Buddy, it seems the doctor isn’t here.

Why isn’t the duty doctor at the hospital?

Sir, she's on her way.

You’ve been saying that for a while. Where’s the doctor?

There's nothing to worry about.

The patient has been stabilized.

- The doctor's on her way… - If anything happens to her or the baby…

- you’ll regret it. - The doctor's here.

How long do you want this?

I want this forever!

Forever!

I don't care what you say. I want a child.

- For you… let's have only one! - For me?

- It's positive. - Let's abort it!

My baby!

When she was six months pregnant,

we did a scan.

From that scan we discovered that

the baby has a

deformation syndrome.

The child will not develop physically or mentally.

Even if the child lives,

the maximum age they can reach

will be up to 5 years.

The doctor said abortion is the better option.

We thought about it too and realized it was the better choice.

Both me and her dad,

the man she married,

tried to convince her, along with everyone else.

But she wouldn’t listen to us.

He brought this up as a reason and

then abandoned her.

If she had aborted the child earlier,

the baby she never even got to see

might have made her cry for a month.

Perhaps,

whenever the child crossed her mind,

she would have cried for a bit.

Think about it.

Now, she has to give birth to the child,

take care of it, and raise it.

If the child dies as the doctor said,

she’ll have to live with the pain until the day she dies!

That doesn’t mean that

her decision to not abort the child

was the right choice.

While we’re all being practical,

she’s the only one who sees the child as a life.

For the child to be happy as long as it lives,

she’ll do whatever it takes to make that happen.

She isn't afraid of all this pain.

I'm telling you now,

anything could happen inside.

She might even lose her life,

but nothing will happen to the child.

She won’t let that happen.

Just wait and see.

So much happened in just one night.

You’ve left the tablets here.

Hey, wait!

I don’t know what you're thinking.

What you don't want now

may not be there when you want it later.

Be it Manu

or the baby.

Think about it.

Sarasu, handover the flower.

Why are you here?

I’m not here to cause any problems.

- Just give me two minutes, please. - Just get out of here.

- Please give me two minutes. - I said, leave!

- Go away! - No, please…

- give me two minutes! - Give me the flower, Sarasu.

- Hey! - I need just two minutes to talk, please.

- Manu? Manu? - What are you doing?

- Manu! - What are you doing, Vasu.

I need two minutes to talk to her. I’ll speak and leave right after.

Not today, Vasu. Don’t you see what’s going on here?

Anu, I need to see her now, please.

I won’t cause any trouble.

- Okay. - I promise.

Fine, but not right now.

Why are you reasoning with him?

Tell him to leave.

Vasu, please.

- Manu, Manu! - Dear, look at what he's doing.

- Manu! - He's causing unnecessary trouble.

- Manu… - He’s not listening to us.

Stay quiet.

Dad!

Haven't you done enough already?

That day, you humiliated our daughter right in front of us.

Now, are you here to do the same in front of everyone?

Sir, I'm not here for that.

I shouldn’t have said those things that day.

Get out!

Manu!

- Hey! - Manu!

- Manu! - Get out, I say.

Vasu, did you bring the tablets?

- What tablets? - Give it to me and go.

Manu, I'm not here for that.

For what?

Dad…

I'm pregnant.

He brought the tablets to abort the baby.

What is she saying?

But I’ll handle it all.

You go ahead.

Go protect your prestige.

Isn't that so important to you?

Go ahead!

Manu…

I’ll handle this, you can go.

Can we have this, Manu?

- You, the child… - Oh!

Can we have this child?

I want both of you!

Isn’t it easy, Vasu?

If you want it, you want it.

If not, then no.

No! I honestly don’t get it.

You’ll tell me to abort,

and I’ll have to agree.

Then, you’ll change your mind and say we’ll keep the child,

and I’ll have to agree to that too.

No, Manu.

You’ll never ask me what I want, will you?

To get a haircut of my choice, I have to ask for your approval.

But…

none of you will care about what I want, right?

Manu…

I know you want us both.

Hey, what you know doesn't matter, Vasu.

Ask me!

Ask me what I want!

Don't just assume!

- Go away! - Son-in-law!

Didn’t she tell you to leave? Why are you still here?

- Leave, I say. - Get out!

Manu, I need to talk to you for a few minutes.

- Hey! Vasu! - Manu…

- Nobody should take a step! - Manu, open the door.

Manu!

Let him talk!

Manu, open the door.

Manu, please open the door.

Manu!

Please give me two minutes.

It’s too painful on this side of the door.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

Manu!

What do you want to talk, Vasu?

This relationship was all about your fears, your trauma, and just you!

It was always about you!

It was never about us.

You have ten seconds to speak, then leave.

Manu, I was a five year old when my mom left.

I couldn't understand what was going on.

There may have been a thousand good reasons for her to leave me,

but that's not my problem, like you think.

But in these 22 years, she never once came to see me.

Even if she gives a thousand reasons for that, it can't be justified.

Manu, my mind has been fixated ever since.

That, one day, everyone close to me will leave me.

Whenever you talked about forever,

all I could think of was you leaving me one day.

But not once did I think about not leaving you.

Manu…

If I walk away from you and the child now,

I'll be repeating what my mom did…

to us!

I can't do that!

I don't want to do that. I don't want to be that person, Manu!

Manu!

They say that for a baby to be conceived, it has to beat a million hurdles.

But, him…

If he has beaten all those odds and won the race among so many…

he's one in a million!

We shouldn't lose him!

How do you know that it's a him?

It might even be a her.

It doesn't matter to me.

Manu…

Whenever we spoke about us,

it was always just the two of us.

Now, we have a new member.

Open up!

Just five minutes, and he's already kissing her.

Dad…

The moment a daughter tells her dad about her pregnancy is a precious one.

But for me…

it didn't go as planned.

I need another chance, Dad.

Please!

I'm pregnant.

Son, she's acting all nice!

Don't you melt! Hey, you get away from him!

- Grandpa. please. - Shut up!

Should everything go according to your wishes?

Didn't I marry just as you wished?

Is my life happy now?

This is a whole different thing.

- Stop talking, I say. - Please, sir, stay calm.

I've made many mistakes in my life,

but leaving her now

would be the biggest mistake of all.

Sir, I'm pleading with you.

Don’t separate the three of us, please.

Son, wait.

So, the ones involved can't speak,

but you'll keep talking, right?

Huh?

Have you all decided to destroy

the family’s prestige?

Dad!

I've been hearing this since I was born.

All these stories about family prestige.

Can you show it to me?

Show it, Dad!

It's you!

Anu, help grandpa to sit.

It's been how many years since you married me off?

- Sivagami… - Stay quiet!

Say it, Dad.

How long has it been?

Sivagami!

Listen, this is our daughter’s life. Please be quiet.

Don't do this, Sivagami.

- How long has it been? - Take this away, and then I’ll speak.

- It’s been 33 or 34 years. - 34 years!

My eldest, here.

The one born after 7 months.

It’s been…

34 years and 3 months since she was conceived.

Son-in-law?!

Oh, no!

Hello!

Manu!

Uncle!

Uncle…

Please don’t separate my wife

and daughters from me.

Manu, history repeats itself.

- Forever? - Forever!
