(piercing title music)

(birds chirping)

(soft, rhythmic rustling)

(metallic thud)

I don't do it these days.

Leave me be.

Who else is there for me other than you?

Please don't say no.

One last time. Please don't think.

(tender music)

Do this for me.

You won't face any problems because of this.

Here, take this.

Take it.

Keep it near the head.

Be there on time.

I'll go now.

(whistling breeze)

(rhythmic music)

(Sidharthan) In the Ponnumaarapatti Temple Festival,

Muthu was the one who killed both Mokkarasu and Thadiyan.

After that, he left Kanmani Dance Troupe and even Madurai.

Where did Muthu go after that?

Who killed him?

There's no information about any of this.

Today, the court ordered to bury Muthu's head.

Muthu's head will reach the police station

from the mortuary tomorrow.

Hello, sir.

Who are you? What's the matter?

I am here from Ernakulam.

-You got a head, right? Muthu? -Yes.

He was my friend.

Babu.

Pattalam Babu?

(poignant music)

It is Muthu.

Muthu was in contact with me for three years.

For the last couple of months,

I don't know where he went and what he did, sir.

(weary sigh)

I'll tell you everything, sir.

Sivettan is dead.

Muthu is dead.

(scoffs) I don't care if anything happens to me.

I'll tell you everything, sir.

(vehicle approaching)

(Babu) We got to know that Johny was released from jail

last September after 10 years.

We searched for him in a lot of places.

But we couldn't find him.

Three months ago, Johny and his gang

kidnapped me to a factory in Aluva.

They took Muthu's number from my phone

and threatened to kill me if he didn't come.

Johny knew Muthu would come for sure if I was in danger.

(rattling music)

(low, constant machine hum)

(rattling music continues)

-(heavy thud) -(Muthu groans)

(heavy, limp thud)

(distant rhythmic clanking)

(Muthu panting)

(strained rope creaking)

(coughs) Babu!

What happened?

Eh...

Muthu.

I didn't say anything.

(metallic clanking)

(grunts, strains)

(Muthu grunts louder)

He took your number from my phone.

Who did this?

Is it Johny?

(Johny) It is Johny!

Muthu! Muthu! Muthu!

(screams) Johny!

Hey!

It's always fun to see you.

Muthu, I searched for you everywhere.

Kerala, Tamil Nadu... There isn't a place

where I didn't look for you.

Even your girlfriend wouldn't have searched for you like this.

I have so much love for you!

Do you know that, Muthu?

(metallic clanks)

How is she?

Your Meena.

-(shouts) Hey, Johny! -(cackles)

Babu said he didn't know where the money is.

What is this?

I'll repeat what Sivettan told you.

You won't get even a single paisa from that money!

Eh... That's fine.

(in Hindi) But I know one thing.

You both know where the money is.

Huh?

I also know this old man won't tell me.

But...

you will tell me.

(chain clanking)

-Hey! -(heavy thud)

Hey!

What's the point in hitting him?

Hit this fucker!

Only then Muthu will feel the pain.

(Babu begins yelping in pain)

Hey!

Johny!

(Muthu) No!

(Muthu) Johny!

Muthu!

(groans)

(panting) Let these dogs do anything to me!

(groans)

You don't say anything.

(Babu screams)

-Babu! -This fucker

-will die without getting the money. -Hey, Johny!

(Babu groans)

-Don't do this, Johny! -(Babu screaming)

(heavy thumping and Babu screaming)

(laughing) Oh, my God!

Oh, my God!

What can I say?

-Poor Sivettan. -(Babu screams)

Even though he had such loyal people,

he died so soon, right?

Ugh! I can't watch this drama.

Call me if he says anything.

(screaming continues)

(tense music)

(shouting muffles, echoes)

(music intensifies)

Stop it!

Go get Johny!

I'll tell him where the money is.

(Babu groaning)

(rapid, retreating thuds)

(hollow, vibrating metal stress)

(metallic snap, explosive hiss)

(metallic clanking)

(high-pitched, screaming whistle)

(metal shuddering)

(continuous hiss)

(metallic thud)

(groans)

(metallic thud)

(screams) Johny!

(heavy thud)

This won't end with me, Muthu.

You need to die.

That will be the end of everything.

(irritated shout)

(wet, tearing slice)

(sharp slice)

(Johny groans)

(heavy thud)

(Johny screaming in pain)

(screaming continues)

(metallic thud)

(screaming continues)

(music swells)

(goat bleating)

Give it here.

Come. Karuppu.

Come here.

Hey...

Take it. Hold this.

You asked for a pregnant goat.

-Keep this. -Boss.

Hey.

Whether you like it or not, you need to do everything for this goat.

Because this is your goat. Okay?

(tender music)

While I'm on my way, I'll leave the hay for the goat at your place.

Don't tell my mother.

Okay, boss.

(music swells)

Boss!

I'll forever be grateful to you, boss.

Stay well, boss!

Come, let's go.

(peacock calling)

(Thangamudi) He committed three murders at the factory in Kerala.

Two murders at the festival.

So, he committed five murders. That's fine.

But the restaurant guy said he killed seven people.

Who would they be?

(Sidharthan) We know very little about Muthu and Sivettan's lives.

Now I understand why he's called "Kaattaan."

Mm-hmm.

-This is a strange case. -Sir!

Look at this, sir.

(intense music)

There's something written as "Muthu" in this.

Sir, what's written here? Read it and tell us.

It's about the three killings at a factory in Aluva.

-Muthu already gave us a clue. -Okay?

-But we didn't notice. -Oh, God!

I have a theory now.

I will explain.

From Benny's words,

we understand that Johny hired men from Madurai when he was in jail

and killed Sivettan.

Muthu got to know that the killers came from Madurai or Dindigul.

He took on the role of a dung dealer to find them.

It became easier for him

when he joined as a driver for the Kanmani Dance Troupe.

At all the temple festivals around Madurai

and wherever people gathered, he could easily look for the killers.

Johny's men also came in search of Muthu

to the Kanmani Dance Troupe.

During the Ponnumaarapatti Festival in 2014,

Muthu saw Mokkarasu and Thadiyan, the ones who killed Sivettan.

He killed them instantly

and disappeared.

Once Johny was released from jail, he killed him to take his revenge.

He might've wanted to keep the dangers around him

from affecting Meena and the people he cared about.

But why this mysterious murder?

A severed head in a barren land.

And a lot of cash near it.

Muthu cleverly used the policemen of Periyaveerampatti

to his advantage.

We wandered around Kerala and Tamil Nadu carrying his picture

to inform everyone of his death, just as his relatives would have.

Johny's men, Sengal Soola Ravi and many others we didn't know

wouldn't search for Muthu anymore.

It's a form of protection for Meena.

He used us to advertise his death.

But why did Muthu go to the mental hospital?

How was his head cut off?

Where is his body?

There are no answers.

It is an unsolved case.

(poignant music)

(tender, melancholic music)

(metallic thud)

(scraping continues)

Let's go.

Hey.

That ₹2 lakh belongs to you.

Sir, I don't need this money.

I swear I didn't do this for money.

You're the one who buried him.

It belongs to you.

You will get it.

This was Muthu's wish.

(sniffles, clears throat)

-Sir, no... -(Sidharthan tsks)

Forget it.

Do you have any booze?

I do, sir.

(peacock calling in distance)

MOM - MUTHU - DAD

(silent mouthing)

(tender music swells)

(triumphant, swelling chords)

Hey!

Stop!

You son of Kaattaan!

Hey, stop.

Where do you think you're running off to? Come on.

Shall we go inside?

(kisses) Come on.

(warm, swelling orchestral music)
