Kiddo…

He's here.

How was the performance?

It started with a heavy punch.

But this isn’t the music show we were expecting!

We've got another magical item for you!

Oh no, this was tiring enough!

But we're not tired.

Not you guys. I meant the audience.

Okay, then.

-Move. -So, what now?

What else?

Let's eat something before that's gone too. Come on!

♪ Meharuba, meharuba Lovely blooming bride, Meharuba ♪

♪ Gifted with golden wealth Beyond measure, Meharuba ♪

♪ Your radiance enchants The waiting groom ♪

I warned you to just remix some Mappila pattu.

But this idiot wanted "freshness!"

They’re just not in our range, that’s the problem.

The vehicle loan is four months overdue.

-That’s okay. -How's that okay?

We needed that money to repay it. And now that's gone too.

Can you stop this?

Be calm! Enough!

That’s why I told you to get the advance first.

Hey!

What are you doing here alone?

-Nothing. -Have some tea.

-Tell Asi. -You make him understand.

Tell me.

-It's just… -Yeah?

The girl in the headscarf. We saw her dancing at the wedding.

There were lots of girls in headscarves. Get lost, man!

-No, Kanaretta. -Then.

There was this really special girl.

Okay…

The moment I saw her, I lost it.

Dude…

In this state, it's best to be alone.

Just keep staring that way.

♪ Come to me, my lovely bird ♪

♪ Give me a pinch of your sweetness ♪

♪ As your flower… ♪

What's up, bro?

Aren't you going to check the results?

Bro, don’t be shocked when I tell you this.

What?

I copied Nancy’s answers, so I might pass.

Wow!

She needed four tries to clear Plus-Two.

Come along if you want.

You can go. I’ve got a lot of work to do.

Oh, you're going to look for that pretty girl, right?

Thanks for reminding me, bro.

Okay then, all the best!

Go to hell.

[singing "Meharuba Meharuba" song]

[humming "Aayiram Kannumayi" song]

[humming together]

It’s really a situational song.

The chattipathiri keeps getting smaller.

Your dad’s shop

isn’t pulling in the sales it used to.

How will it?

Your husband is still hung up on biriyani from the '90s and ghee rice.

Ask him to upgrade to pizzas and burgers!

-Please. -An update.

At least we’re not starving.

Dad was looking for you.

He has severe knee pain.

He can’t sit in the shop for too long.

He asked if you could help.

Mom, what are you saying?

There are big highs ahead of me.

If I go sit there, I’ll be cooked like his biriyani.

I have to fly very high.

At least wait until the "highs" of yesterday’s wedding wear off.

Oh!

How did that go viral so fast?

Damn! How will I face everyone now?

Son, I was there at the wedding event too.

Dude, what's up? Did you get your salary?

Didn't even get breakfast, let alone a salary.

Bloody bosses.

Bro, what's up?

Did you find that pretty girl?

I tried a lot, but the routes aren't clear.

Bloody network problems.

Did you call Fathima?

How can I call her the day after her wedding?

What's the issue? To get her name and details, right?

Go ahead. Call Fathima now.

Should I call her?

If I get her name, I'll track her down on Instagram.

Then I'll make her mine.

Oh, she hung up.

Call her again.

-Is that necessary? -Call her, man.

She won't answer the call.

She'll definitely answer his call.

-Like hell she will. -I'll bet you 1,000 rupees.

Yeah, she answered.

He's the one who sang at the wedding.

My lovely Pathu…

For us, music and dance are forbidden by God.

So those who perform them are also forbidden to us.

So we don’t need those friendships anymore.

Got it?

-See, she didn't answer. -She hung up again.

They’ll have a lot going on right now.

-They’re newlyweds, right? -Of course.

Lost that too.

Come on.

Bro, how did it go?

-Checked it. -And?

You'll both have to retake the exam.

-What about you? -I passed.

Just passed.

You bloody… how could you cheat us like this?

Leave it. He barely passed.

Maybe he made a mistake while copying.

Anyway, you passed, right? Give us a treat!

-Okay, then give. -Listen, bro.

See, I’ve got nothing left. I’m completely broke. Give it back, bro.

-What’s this then? -It’s for fuel.

-What? For an electric scooter? -Yeah…

-Give it back, bro. -Two days' expenses, on him.

I’ll get you back for this.

Okay, we’ll see about that then.

The real problem now is, how do I enter my house?

Give me a solution.

Latheef Uncle will help us with that.

-Yeah. -That's risky, but…

Hey, Latheef Uncle is our guy. We can work it out.

Okay, let him handle this.

I’ve been covering for you with your dad since your school days.

I’m not doing that anymore. Shut your mouth.

Just because he married my sister, doesn’t mean I can bug him all the time.

-Ew… -Uncle…

Uncle, I swear on you, I won’t fail any more exams.

-How are you so sure of that? -Because I've stopped.

-What, failing in exams? -No, taking exams.

Amazing!

A shirt that keeps riding up

and that ridiculous haircut, like a migrant worker's.

Idiot!

Listen, brother-in-law, don’t insult migrant workers.

They work hard to survive, unlike him.

Tell him that.

I don’t think he’ll ever prosper in life.

All he does is hang out with friends,

clown around singing at weddings,

and shoot lame music albums.

It’s not an album, Dad, it’s a reel.

-His damn reels! Don’t get me started. -Hey, Asi…

What’s he doing here?

Just a small treat for being the only one who passed.

Go on, have some sweets.

Here, Uncle, have a laddu.

Why does it taste off?

It's from your bakery.

Oh, then maybe it’s the flavor of cardamom.

Uncle, here you go.

Aunty, have some.

Here, bro, have it.

Do you understand the value of 2,000 rupees now?

You idiot!

Aunty, I’m leaving.

I have to give laddus to Vijay’s family, since he also failed.

-Bye. -His damn laddu.

Come on, brother-in-law,

just give him another chance.

He will do better.

Then you take him to your shop.

-Oh my God! -Let’s see if he improves or not.

Oh God, no need for that.

Last week, when I went to the market, I left him at the counter for a bit.

When I got back, 2,000 rupees were missing from the cashbox.

Uncle…

That doesn’t mean he stole it.

But he didn't tell me until I asked.

Brother-in-law,

when we send kids to schools and colleges,

we should consider their interests too.

Otherwise, they’ll never be happy.

But he’s got no interest in anything.

I told you already. I don't want BTech, I want music.

Stop talking nonsense. Just get out of my sight.

Music!

I’ve got an offer for you.

Basheer’s shop in Dubai needs a manager, and he asked me for a name.

He can learn the business too.

He needs to run our hotel later, right?

He can’t keep roaming around like this anymore.

Brother-in-law, forget about Dubai for now.

I've given him a task.

If it works out, he won’t have to fly to Dubai or anywhere else.

Brother-in-law, I need to take a bath.

I need to pray.

Tell him to learn from his friend.

Rap!

Mom, he used cheat sheets in the exam.

What?

-Cheat sheets. -Okay, got it.

That takes some skill too.

-True. -Mom…

Asi, this is the last time I'm accompanying you.

And I have a condition. Are you okay with that?

-Yes. -Then listen carefully.

Near the hospital junction,

there’s a shut down recording studio.

A friend of mine owns it. You’ll have to manage it.

You love music, right?

Okay, this is the task Uncle mentioned.

Uncle, a recording studio isn’t really my thing.

For rappers like us…

-Then leave me alone. -Uncle, wait… please!

Like I said, the studio owner is my friend.

He’s a lawyer.

His only weakness?

He drinks a bit.

I hope there’s enough in the bottle.

It wasn’t empty before! Did I finish it already?

-A bit means…? -Alright then, it’s settled.

A bit high.

Pretty sure it had enough for three more drinks.

Oh, maybe I finished it before I left.

What to say when the bottle…

-What are you going to do? -Don’t worry, we can do this.

There is nothing left in this.

Can't even buy a bottle because it’s "his" Jayanthi!

-What do I do for a drink now? -Excuse me, sir.

What?

Who are you? Come in.

-Good day. -Hi, nice to--

-Sir, this is a small gift. -What is it?

Sir.

Sir, we heard you were renting out a studio space here.

Yeah, I was planning to, but I've changed my mind.

Sir, we’ll take good care of it.

Because we are a music band, Monjians.

So, you guys really plan to live up to that name, "good-for-nothing."

Sir, we’ll run it carefully because…

Sir, it’s been closed for a while. This’ll earn you some income.

Can't say no now, after drinking this.

How about this? Let's share it.

No, sir, it’s okay. We don’t drink in the morning.

Not the bottle, you idiot!

I meant sharing the profits from the studio.

-Okay, sir. Sure. -Okay.

So you'll run it, and we'll split the profits.

Whatever you earn, we split it 50–50.

-Okay, sir. -Okay.

Alright then, let’s go to the studio.

Okay, let’s go.

See, this is the recording studio, and that’s the editing studio.

Lights, camera, all the stuff’s here.

-Sir, was this the editing suite? -Yeah, it used to be one.

Now it's my drinking suite.

I know you addressing me as "sir"

is not from the heart.

So stop calling me "sir."

You can call me Achayan.

-[together] Achayan! -Yes…

Oh!

Sir, he's heading to the college.

-The vehicle number is correct. -Yeah, sir, it is.

Is something wrong, sir?

-Do you have a joint on you? -Oh no, sir. Never!

-Are you sure? -Yes, sir. I don’t use stuff like that.

-You won’t trick me, right? -Never, sir.

-Are you sure? -Sure, sir.

Very good!

So you were rushing for something else.

Don’t worry, just pay the 2000-rupee fine.

-2000 rupees! -Yes, 2000 rupees.

Oh no, sir!

-I don’t have that much money. -No problem.

I don’t have that kind of money.

-Sir, look at this. -Okay then, we'll seize the vehicle.

Running the red light, for what?

-Just a minute, sir. -Sure.

-Will he escape that way? -No sir, he won't.

Yesterday, after all this, when I went to Mom to tell her this…

Hey… Hi…

Do you remember me?

The rapper from Fathima’s wedding.

Yeah, I remember.

-Asif. -What?

My name is Asif.

Among rappers, I’m known as Azbee.

Can I ask you something?

How’s your financial situation?

Can you lend me 1,200 rupees?

I got busted by the cops.

You know, traffic rule violation.

And you know…

-Sorry, I only have 700 rupees on me. -It’s fine, don’t worry.

Borrow the rest from your friend.

You know, this bloody society…

Okay, thank you.

Oh no, wait a minute!

Can you give me your number?

-For what? -To repay you through Google Pay.

-98… -98…

-72… -72…

-81… -81…

-7685. -85.

Okay, what’s your name?

Just to confirm.

-Maria. -Maria…

Maria Fernandez.

Maria… okay.

Works for me.

Who's he?

Maria!

Your performance that day was nice.

Oh, you made it!

Sir, I'll never forget this. My tension has eased, and I'm calm.

Thank you, sir.

The lover boy is here.

-What is it? -I'll tell you.

On my way back from the studio, I saw that pretty girl.

-Oh! -Really?

Her name's Maria.

Nice!

-Maria Fernandez! -So, she's not a beauty, she's an angel.

Maria Asif…

No, Maria Azbee.

Maria Azbee Kadalundi!

Don’t call or disturb me.

-We have future plans to discuss. -Ugh, future!

-So then, see you guys, bye. -Bye-bye.

You'd better come back here!

You're invited to the wedding. Please come.

How's the new project going, Asif?

I'm producing a new beat for my next track.

-Really? Okay. -Let's sit here.

Do you know Tupac Shakur?

-Want to try your luck with the lottery? -You want one?

You can go.

Have it.

Tupac was a great artist, but he was shot dead.

-I'm his fan. -She's beautiful, bro.

Wow!

How is it?

School kids.

Take this. I've got this.

-What's the problem? -What problem?

Don't cause trouble. Just go to school.

You won’t let us go to school if we cause trouble?

Damn!

You’re really awesome, dude.

-So, why are you touching me? -What, are you ticklish?

What's this, a school assembly?

Surendran sir, I’ll be on leave tomorrow. Please check this file.

Put it on CI sir’s table. Alex will take it.

Then I'll give it to him.

Sir.

Sir, the family’s here about the school kids’ case.

They’re minors. Let's file a case. Otherwise, we’ll be in trouble.

The parents said they didn’t want a case.

Sir, what do we do?

Then note down their details. and let them go.

And get it in writing that they have no complaints.

Okay, sir.

-What's your name? -Dheeraj.

-Father's name? -Pankaj Menon.

Pankaj Menon!

Note it down.

-Ajeesh. -You don’t have a father?

-Yes, his name is Thankappan. -So say, "Ajeesh Thankappan"!

-Ajeesh Thankappan. -What does your dad do?

-Sand dredging. -Sand dredging!

Why not dive, dredge some illegal sand, gather clams, and get by?

Do you guys go to school just to cause trouble?

We didn’t do anything, sir. He just came at us.

If they mess around, you’ll beat them?

Sir, he was with a girl.

He came at us because we saw them doing something.

Yes, sir, we were doing something improper there.

Come outside, I’ll deal with you.

Hey! Why are you messing around?

-Then, when they make trouble… -Hey!

Why are you so angry?

We’re here to verify their claims, right?

Calm down!

-What's your name? -Asif.

-What? -Asif Beeran.

No wonder you're exploding in anger.

Are you walking around with a bomb?

-Why ask such a question, sir? -Then, how should I ask you, Asif Beeran?

Oh…

So, my name’s the issue, sir?

Your name’s an issue. So are many things.

If you don’t behave, I’ll cut you down, swine!

-What is it? All done? -Yes, sir.

I was just getting their details.

I'd better not see you here again…

Get lost!

-You took the kids’ IDs, right? -Yes.

Okay.

Get lost! Don’t mess with him again. Understand?

Then, how should I ask you, Asif Beeran?

Your name’s an issue. So are many things.

If you don’t behave, I’ll cut you down, swine!

Who else fights school kids besides you?

You’re lucky their dads didn’t file a case.

Asif did that for me.

Bro, what do you want now? Want to hit them?

Come on, let's go.

-We’ll storm their homes and beat them. -Will you stay quiet?

He can’t even stand straight.

We try to settle, and he causes trouble.

-Sit down! -Sure! I'll do that!

-Sit down. -No problem. I'll do that.

He's the one we should hit!

-That cop! -The cop?

Why is he after you?

He has a problem with my name.

-We could've done better, though. -What?

Her portions weren't good enough.

Dear Asi, no boyfriend has ever been satisfied with his girlfriend's looks.

Do you know why?

It's the way we picture the girl we love in our head.

No camera or technology could ever match that.

If you love her, then don’t wait.

Go tell her.

Speak freely.

There are more loves lost,

unspoken and unknown, than those that have succeeded.

Oh! What's the stuff?

Damn!

Yuck, no high can top the love in your heart.

The rest are just highs to forget that love.

No, my 20-day study leave starts tomorrow.

I've got to pack.

Okay then, shall I…

-drop you home? -For what?

No, it's…

Uncle and Mom must’ve reached the hostel.

I’m the only daughter, so it’s a bit of an issue.

Things at my place aren’t the way you think.

After all, their happiness is what matters most, right?

So, isn't your happiness what makes them happy?

No, their happiness makes me happy.

It’s late, shall I go?

We'll meet during my exams.

-Maria… -Yes.

Can I send the song? Let me know what you think.

Hi…

How was the exam?

They were okay.

Okay, right.

Asi, why are you here to meet me?

Well…

The vibe here is off. Should we go somewhere else?

-Where? -Hop on.

Come on, hop on.

Hey, it was a huge surprise seeing you at church.

-I never expected that. -There’s a lot more to see!

We had a family meeting after church that day.

And that's where I got an even bigger surprise.

That meeting was to fix my marriage.

Nobody told me.

I was so shocked.

So, done with your wedding shopping?

I'm serious.

It’s not really a surprise.

Our families have talked before.

They said they'd wait until I finished my studies.

The groom's in the US.

He’s the son of the priest who knew my dad from the seminary.

The whole family’s coming next month.

They plan to hold the engagement and the wedding together.

You’re the first to know, Asif.

Asi, you had something to say, right?

You already know it.

And so do I.

Our music video drops tomorrow.

Watch it and share your opinion.

This way, it won’t surprise you later.

[singing "Muttathethum Thennale" song]

Hey… what happened?

-Nothing. -Come on, tell us.

This won’t work, Achayan.

-Her marriage is fixed. -What?!

-So, she cheated on you? -Of course.

For sure.

-No. -What should it be called, then?

No point in blaming her.

It was I who dreamed too big.

What’s he saying?

♪ Amid the waves, a hundred thousand pieces drift, ♪

♪ Yet the night feels lonely still ♪

-Hey, this looks good, right? -Maria, song has gone viral!

♪ Dream, just a little That’s enough ♪

♪ If it is you within that dream ♪

♪ Through this path, time and again, ♪

♪ If ever you need to say a word… ♪

Stop that, Asi.

What? You're drinking now?

-I need a drink. -No, you don't.

Why, to escape the sadness? That's what everyone says.

Two or three drinks might make you forget things.

But when the booze is gone, the sorrow stays, so you drink again.

You’re not someone who should become an alcoholic.

If you’re feeling low, go away for a while.

Or just go home.

Spend time with your family, and things will change.

You’ll forget these bad times.

Go on, leave now.

Hey, drop him off at the bus stand.

See you then.

I’ll reach out later.

Come on…

Oh Achayan,

I’ve never seen someone this intelligent and experienced.

I meant what I said to him.

Also, it’s past 11.

Most bars are closed by now, and tomorrow’s a dry day.

Only four pegs are left,

if he finishes them, what will I do to calm my shivering tomorrow?

Oh, how crooked.

Hey… not ready yet?

-For what? -For her wedding.

No, I’m not coming.

Oh, so emotional.

See…

90% of us guys

end up showing up at an ex’s wedding.

Just go to the wedding, stuff yourself with food,

snap a selfie with her husband,

and curse her in your head forever.

Just shake her hand, say all the best and return.

-Come on… -Correct.

-Why do we even need to go there? -Didn’t she say you must come?

-Come on… -Get up.

Come on…

What’s this?

Why’s he dressed like a groom?

Yeah, he should’ve been the groom, but just missed it.

Then change this shirt.

Why? The buttons are fine.

Yeah, it looks fine.

Here, try this on.

She needs to know

it’s her loss, not yours.

She didn’t just miss you,

she missed your mom’s biriyani, ghee rice, and chattipathiri too.

Honestly, she’s lucky she escaped the chattipathiri.

It turned out to be a mess last week.

Ask for chattipathiri again,

and I’ll fry you up!

What now?

Now you look very handsome.

-Exactly! -Go on.

Come on…

Step in with style, handsome.

Are the rooms ready? Make sure it’s all air-conditioned.

Also, book two suite rooms.

Bro…

Maria.

-Are you Maria’s friends? -Yeah.

She’s in there.

-Hey… Davis. -Yes.

Where did you arrange the stay for Kuriachan and his family?

I arranged that at Thomas's hotel.

-Then share the location with them. -Yes, I’ll share it.

Uncle…

They’re Maria’s friends.

-He’s Maria’s dad. -Please, have a seat.

-Send it now. -Okay.

Uncle is a priest, so alcohol is served in secret.

Two is enough, he won’t drink.

Big miss, isn’t it?

Alright then, let’s grab a drink.

You’re Azbee, right?

-Yes. -We watched your video.

-That was amazing! -Thank you.

-You know him? -Yes.

Sir, don’t you know him? He’s Asif Kadalundi.

Their raps are really famous.

Wow!

Then you're not leaving without some rocking performances.

The burka dance was really nice.

Who is she?

Burka?!

Hey, take this.

Take this shot, we’re going to rock the event.

Let me give this to Maria and come right back.

Okay, go ahead.

You can sing after that.

I’ll wait for you.

I'm leaving.

Just the final blush is left.

Didn’t your friends come?

They’re downstairs.

-Is this for me? -Yeah.

This one’s me, right?

I’m the one in the Sreeraman costume.

We studied together in St. Mary’s up to the fifth.

Okay…

But I don’t recall you back then.

What’s this arrow here?

Oh, I drew that

back then.

I had…

Our rap went viral.

What are you planning next?

I had a plan.

But…

I think I’m late.

Yes.

Alright, then.

All the best!

[singing "Sundari Sundari" song]

Thank you. Thank you.

Up next, we’ll hear a rap song

-performed by Maria’s friends. -It’s about to begin.

Shall we go?

Let's go.

-Thank you. -Thank you. Thank you.

Next up on stage, with an energetic rap song,

is the blessed voice of Malayalam!

Azbee Kadalundi!

Court to hear bail plea in the love jihad case today.

Reports say the accused in police custody will be produced in court soon.

Your Honor,

there exists a group that infiltrates campuses,

manipulates love to convert young women,

and exploits them for extremist activities by even recruiting them into ISIS.

This case stands as the clearest example before us.

Come on, boys.

Don’t be scared. It’s my friend’s house.

Come, they're lawyers too.

-Where are they? -They're inside.

I see.

These are Asif's friends. Come on, boys.

Go ahead.

What have you done?

At least a word to us before leaving. That’s all.

That idiot who gave us drinks yesterday is a cop.

-He's my cousin. -Idiot cousin!

He hit me like hell!

If we knew you were here, we’d have told him.

That’s why I didn’t tell you.

I didn’t hide it from you deliberately.

It just happened.

Achayan, I just want to meet my parents.

I'll convince them, somehow.

If you go near your house, there'll be cops all around.

The family will take her away and thrash you.

Doesn’t your dad go to the big mosque?

-How about meeting him there? -Good idea.

No one will suspect if it’s there. It's a good idea. Come, let's go.

Uncle, please sign here.

This is for habeas corpus.

Wherever he goes with her, they’ll be nabbed.

So, relax and drink your tea merrily.

His friends don’t really know anything.

I gave them a "proper questioning."

Even they didn’t know he eloped with her.

Don't worry.

She'll be here, first thing in the morning.

You can bet on Davis's word.

Dad…

I had…

No other choice.

To bring her along…

nowhere is safe but our home.

This family carries its own traditions.

There are some rules to follow.

To break it…

I can't do that.

But if you're stubborn about it,

do one thing.

Ask her to convert to Islam.

Then bring her home.

I will take care of the rest.

Yes, Achayan?

I think the police traced our location.

We’re leaving that place with Maria.

I'm at Thevarikunnu. I'll send you the location.

-Okay, Achayan. -Don't get caught by the police.

No, I'll take care of it.

What's up?

Pull over to the left, and I'll tell you.

Tell me, man!

Where the hell have you been?

-Achayan… -Damn it!

What a mess!

Hey! Get in this car.

-Get in, I'll get in. -What?

-What's up, Lawyer Sir? -Father, praise Jesus.

Go inside the church and cross yourself.

I’ve taken up a "cross" and still carry it.

What is it?

Father…

This chap is dear to me.

-He's in love with a girl. -So, what?

Love and affection are things the Lord likes, aren't they?

Yes, but…

You see, his faith and hers aren't the same.

So? Can’t the girl be brought into his faith?

My dear Father, his name's Asif.

What's her name?

Fernandez. Maria Fernandez.

Oh, hell, no! This won't work out!

Father, didn’t you just say the Lord likes love?

My dear, Paul!

Is our child converting to their faith the same as them converting to ours?

So conversions are okay as long as they convert?

You won't understand.

To grasp it, you need belief and fear of God.

Stop raising my BP. Take the boy and go.

He’ll bring every nuisance!

Alex…

Get in. We'll find another way. Come on.

Do you have any such relationships?

Uncle, don’t I need someone right for me?

That's good. You need to grow up a little more.

What's left to grow?

They're here, Uncle.

Oh my God!

She's perfect! Got the looks of a queen.

Kudos to his selection!

If brother-in-law doesn't hold the wedding, we'll do it, okay?

Why does she have a rosary in her hand?

-Well… that's because she's a Christian. -What?!

Uncle, she's Christian.

-Even if brother-in-law agrees, I won't! -Uncle…

-Start the car, Basheer! -Uncle, please.

-We're artists… -Artists! Damn it.

-Uncle… -Hey Latheef, are you leaving?

Paul, I thought at least you had some sense.

I understand why you're supporting this.

-Hey, they’re our kids. -Hell with you!

Asi, drop her somewhere and head home!

-Uncle, don't go. -Uncle, uncle, please!

Let him go, jerk.

Everyone's the same.

What did Dad say when you met him?

We can go to my house.

But you have to convert.

Asif, what did you say?

I love her!

It’s not like I checked her religion.

The conversion is never going to happen, Dad.

All right, then.

Okay, then, do as you wish.

But forget about your parents.

A cigarette, please.

Come with me, Asif.

I held back from asking because of the girl.

What's next?

How far will this go?

Don’t your friends have homes and families, too?

Think about it.

How long can you rely on them?

How long can this go on?

Hey, what the hell is this?

Leave it.

Do you even know what to do after this?

Speak up.

Step out, Maria.

-Asi, what is it? what happened? -Just come.

Hey, what happened?

-Asif… -Where on earth are you going??! Stop.

Please let us be. We'll go live somewhere else.

Oh, yeah? Where?

How are you going to take care of her?

Do you even have money to make it to the next bus stop?

Fine, off you go.

It’s me who wasted time!

Get in the car, you two! Let the lovebirds live their lives.

Get in!

Let's go to your place.

I understand love and affection, Ayesha.

But he's eloped with a Christian!

Aren't there any pretty Muslim women?

Brother-in-law, if the Mahal committee and people find out, it’ll be a huge disgrace.

This is a mess. Be careful.

It's the landline, not your phone!

Hello?

Alhamdulillah! God’s finally given him some good sense.

No need for that, his uncle’s house in Ponnani will do.

He knows.

You go there.

We’ll be there soon.

Okay, all right then.

Salbath, they’re here.

-As-salamu alaykum! -Wa alaykum as-salam.

I thought you’d be late.

Your mom and dad are already here.

You're such a genius!

You troubled us for two days.

Meet my uncle.

Meet my friends, Uncle.

Including that man?

So, it was you who was behind all this trouble?

We stood by him out of love,

and your family caused all this trouble.

Love and trouble, what a cool idea for a rap!

Mom…

This is her.

-This is my mom. -Dear…

Come.

Come on, get in.

Dear…

Give it to me.

Got this for you. Might be your size.

It’ll fit perfectly. Try it on.

Mom?

What is it, dear?

Sorry.

Oh dear.

No need to be sorry.

You did what was right for you.

No matter how old you get,

you’re always your parents’ child.

On their first day of school,

the kids will all cry.

And the teachers will scold us to step away from them.

Even after getting scolded,

the parents will linger around.

It’ll be the first time

when we feel the pain of separating from our kids.

A new place for the kids,

teachers they’ve never met.

Will they take care of our children?

Will they understand the likes and dislikes of our child?

Our minds will be full of worries.

The case of a wedding is just like that.

Not because we're cruel or blind to their desires.

You should go see your parents in a couple of days.

Nothing is more precious than their love.

Change into them, okay?

Maria…

What's wrong? Why are you upset?

You miss your parents, don't you?

Hey, everything will be alright.

Let all this be over. Okay?

Look, don't be sad.

Hey, Maria Azbee, you shouldn't be sad.

Let's just stick to Maria Fernandez, or people will talk.

All of them are waiting for us.

Come.

As-salāmu ʿalaykum.

Wa ʿalaykum as-salām! Mashallah, you look stunning, boy!

Let’s not waste time. Shall we go?

Put on a purdah for her.

Come.

-Let's not get into trouble on the way. -That's right.

We’re heading to the mosque.

Remove those things.

Don’t be late. Come on.

Come, let's go.

The meaning of Islam is peace and prosperity.

A Muslim is defined as one who has surrendered.

It means that if a person surrenders to the one and only Almighty,

he can achieve peace and prosperity, as mentioned in the Quran.

Now, let’s recite the Shahada kalima

and proceed with the rituals.

[recites in Arabic]

That is, you accept that there is no god greater than Allah,

and that Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him, is His only messenger.

Believe it and repeat it thrice,

and you become a true Muslim.

The other rituals can be learned afterwards.

Repeat after me, dear.

Dear… Take off that ring.

I mean, take off the ring.

Let's begin, then.

[reciting from the Quran]

Dear? Repeat after me.

[reciting from the Quran]

Dear!

[reciting from the Quran]

Maria…

I can't do this, Asif.

I’ve been a practicing Christian for as long as I can remember.

I can’t change my beliefs.

Then why did you trouble us, son? Just to annoy us!

It's alright.

We'll figure something out.

Hello?

What?! Oh god!

Let's start then?

[news reporters speaking]

[news reporters speaking]

Let's go to your house.

I'll convert.

I'll convert for you.

-What's is it? -Paul, it's a huge mess here.

-What problem? -Police…

Paul, the police arrested them.

Help them!

Who asked you to make her convert?!

Like this is really important!

Will your community leaders help him?

No right? Didn't those kids say they'd live without religion?

Let go of your rigid thoughts

and live as a human who loves their children.

What is it?

Brother-in-law!

What happened, Paul?

I spoke to one or two officers I know.

Since the media is also involved, they say nothing can be done.

And there’s a lot of pressure from higher authorities.

-Can I meet him once? -It’s difficult to meet him right now.

It's a sensitive case.

Other related cases will surface too.

We’ll have to wait a bit.

Oh God, how did things get to this point?

Don’t lose hope, brother-in-law.

Let anyone question him.

We know our boy hasn’t done anything wrong, right?

-Yeah… -Stay strong, brother-in-law.

-Come on, let’s go. -Come on.

Asif, you sing well, don’t you?

Wait, not song…

-Sir, it's rap. -Yes, rap.

But your rap has some problems.

Your lyrics go against the system.

It even sounds anti-national.

Well, sir, my…

-the things I faced in my life-- -Where do you get your funds, Asif?

-We all pitched in-- -What?

-We all friends… -Speak properly!

-Where did you get funds? -Sir, I swear, from nowhere.

Only our friends funded it.

Didn’t you try to trap this woman and convert her?

Sir, we’re in love.

To live with her, I…

I took her with me.

But neither family agreed.

Then in that situation,

I didn't have any other way out.

She was the one who said

she was willing to convert.

What if we told you

that you created such a situation deliberately for her?

-But, sir… -If that wasn’t your intent,

why did you make her wear a burkha and film a video?

It was nothing else.

Her father is a priest.

As a girl in that family,

she couldn’t show her face outside.

Tell the truth.

-What do you earn for recruiting a girl? -What?

Sir, what are you saying?!

What do you gain by luring a girl to IS?

Sir, I swear I know nothing.

-I love her, I want to live with her. -Spit out the truth, you!

Even at the last minute, if he says he’ll back out, isn’t that cowardly?

What’s the point of saying that now?

Cases are already piling up against Asif.

What happened?

That lawyer won’t be coming.

He made excuses, saying he’s unwell.

And then his wife says

that he'll send his junior lawyer.

Oh, God…

What do we do now?

Ayesha, don’t lose hope.

He isn’t the only lawyer in the world.

Isn’t Ashwathi’s husband also a lawyer?

Newcomers won’t do.

We need someone strong and steady.

Where will we find someone like that?

And such a man does exist.

What?!

-Paul? -Huh?

Will you argue this case?

-Huh? Me? -Yes.

Latheef, what are you even saying?! That won’t work.

I can't take on a case now.

Is he still mad at Asi?

-What did you just say? Huh? -Nothing.

You all only know Paul who drinks and wastes time on reels!

He used to be a first-class lawyer.

People queued up for his cases.

God’s grace turned a fluke into fate.

Hey, Latheef, don't you know? I gave up the lawyer’s job myself!

This isn’t some small case, it’s our boy’s life.

If I lose, my peace will die with it.

Stay put.

I want you to argue my son’s case.

-I… I can’t. -Please. Don’t say you can’t.

-But I… -We have faith in you.

Try to see my point.

-Latheef, I… -Paul, please.

Just agree.

Crime number 246/2024,

Asif Beeran. Asif Beeran.

The court will hear the bail appeal of the infamous love jihad accused.

The accused in custody will be produced in court without delay.

Your Honor,

there exists a group that infiltrates campuses,

manipulates love to convert young women,

and exploits them for extremist activities by even recruiting them into ISIS.

This case stands as the clearest example before us.

This girl is the daughter of a priest.

That alone heightens the gravity of this case.

So,

this cannot be dismissed as a love affair,

or a secret elopement and religious conversion.

The accused forced her to wear a burkha and filmed a video, as discovered by SB.

This is the pen drive containing that video.

This is the report of Ponnani police questioning the accused.

I submit it now as evidence before this Honorable Court.

From this, it is clear that the accused acted with full planning and intent.

He lured and brainwashed the girl,

moving with a hidden agenda.

The police rescued her from a religious institution in Ponnani,

where she was being forcibly converted to Islam.

To understand the root cause of the love jihad cases we see today,

and to find out if the accused, Asif Beeran, has ties to radical groups,

we request this Honorable Court

to charge him under the UAPA and transfer this case to the investigating officers.

That’s all, Your Honor.

Respected Senior Advocate Jayashankar,

may I say one thing?

Sir, if he has never loved till now, at least let him fall in love once.

Only then will he understand the pain of love.

We often say love is blind.

Who cares about religion and caste?

If you tell it to today's youngsters, they'll claim to know better!

Objection, Your Honor!

Love has nothing to do with religion or caste.

What I pointed out is that some people do bring religion into it.

-And that is the real issue here. -Exactly! That is the problem!

Only some twist love with caste and religion.

Your Honor, even in Parliament, it has been said openly.

Interfaith marriages should be encouraged.

But here, the prosecution seeks to block them instead,

by branding love as love jihad.

Your Honor,

no one here opposes interfaith love or marriage.

The real problem is when girls are deceived, abused, recruited

and trafficked into terror groups under the guise of love.

That is exactly what has happened in this case, too.

Your Honor, for years now,

these accusations keep resurfacing.

But those who raise them,

never produce any real evidence.

Take the case of Dr. Raziya,

she converted and married a Muslim man.

Her father accused them of love jihad,

but the investigation agency submitted a report, saying

they found no such thing, and this is a copy of that report.

One more thing.

This is an extract from the report where our Union Minister,

answered a question about love jihad in the Parliament.

And in that very report, he admitted love jihad does not exist!

Your Honor, in the last ten years, in Kerala alone

if we examine the records of those who converted for marriage,

ninety percent of such conversions were by women.

Even in love, girls are forced to move to the man’s side. That is the truth.

That is what needs to change here.

This is the reality.

One community’s love alone is branded.

So who gave anyone the right, Your Honor,

to brand one community’s love as love jihad?

Objection, Your Honor!

The defense is misleading the Court.

I never accused the entire community. I referred to a few individuals.

Yes, that’s the point!

How can the mistakes of a few make an entire community guilty?

Your Honor, whenever the charge of love jihad

is raised in this country, one case is always brought up.

The case of three girls who were allegedly converted

and trafficked to Syria and Afghanistan.

One of those girls in Afghanistan expressed her wish to return,

and her mother approached the court.

If she returns,

those who orchestrated her conversion can be identified and punished as an example.

Instead, in its name,

sacred love and innocent youth should not be torn apart.

I plead this before the Honorable Court.

Let them love.

Let them love without barriers of caste, religion, nation, or language.

Your Honor,

this girl has allegedly been victimized.

I humbly request that the girl's testimony be recorded

before this Honorable Court.

Maria Fernandez?

Maria?

Did you leave home with Asif of your own free will?

Or were you forced and taken against your will?

I went with him of my own choice.

And was the decision to convert yours alone, Maria?

Or did Asif, or anyone else pressure or threaten you?

No…

It was my decision.

Oh…

That’s all, Your Honor.

Based on the evidence presented,

the prosecution has failed

to prove that Asif Beeran acted

with the extremist intent of love jihad.

Therefore,

this court declares Asif Beeran,

the accused, not guilty.

The custody of the girl will be based on her own decision.

So, tell the court your wish.

I want to go with my mom and dad.

Accordingly,

this court orders that Maria be returned to her parents.

What's this, dear?

Get up dear.

Listen to your brother. Come.

The Ponnani love jihad case has had a new development.

A boy feigned love and took a vicar’s Christian daughter

to a major Ponnani religious centre, where she was forced into conversion.

Mercy, turn off the TV.

So she made a mistake.

Doesn't mean you should crucify her over it.

You made a mistake, one everyone your age makes.

Just erase this episode from your life.

These guys can't be trusted.

Come on, Uncle. Cheer up.

Hello? What happened now?

He got out, didn't he?

Dear…

I've dedicated my life to guiding others on God’s path.

But when I'm asked about failing to do the same for my daughter…

I have no answer.

I understand your heart, my dear.

But…

my cassock won't let me do that.

Dad…

I want to see Asif.

Please, Dad.

I need to meet him.

Hey! What is so difficult to understand?

Didn't I tell you to lock him up for good?

Look what's happened now.

We Malayalis generally live in peace and unity.

But one spark is all it takes

to destroy all of that.

Why should we be the ones doing that?

Uh… that was Davis's idea, to strengthen the case…

The matter should've been handled with more care.

But that's in the past now.

On top of that,

this has taken away the agency of our daughters.

Are our daughters so easily led astray?

When she suddenly left home,

I was only worried about somehow bringing her back.

Anyway, you shouldn't stay in this parish any longer.

There's an opening in Mysuru.

Most of the devotees there have migrated from Kerala.

Right now, a change would be good for your daughter.

You'll be informed of the details later.

Lighten up, my dude.

If you go in with that face, they'll turn us away.

They want my song. Not my face, right?

Come with me.

He's tied up in lawsuits. How can we make a movie with him?

Sir, we just need to put a positive spin on it.

-Will that work? -Of course it will.

-He's here. -What?

Look.

-Come, come! -Bro!

Let's go.

We listened to your rap song. We loved the topic.

-Nice. -Thank you.

In our movie’s plot, this rap will be used

at a crucial moment in the hero's life.

You can choose what to base the rap on.

What on earth…?

Asi, Hey!

Asi!

Dude, what was that?

You've ruined a great opportunity.

Go to hell! Won't let anyone succeed.

Sir, please!

No, they're just in a rough spot.

Sir, please. Hello?

That's not happening now.

They're going to hire Rabzee.

As expected.

He ran out of there, just insulting them.

Son, I'm telling you this out of love.

Don't ruin your life over that girl.

She's out of your life now. Accept reality.

If that's the case, why did she message me?

Which she later deleted.

Asi!

Why the hell did I go through this?

Why did the police beat me up, humiliate me in front of everyone?

Because I was sure she'd be mine.

We were certain we'd have a future together.

And then, she just…

Don't I deserve to know why?

I'm sure of one thing.

She wants to tell me something.

I won't rest until I find out what.

-Wait, dude! -Asi!

Asi!

Son! Asi?

-Wait! -Mom, can you please calm down?

I'll be back.

Hello? Yes, aunty.

No, we're not going anywhere.

Achayan?

He left home and went somewhere.

-What? Where?! -I have no idea.

He definitely went to meet her.

Maria, I know you're listening.

I want to see you. We need to talk.

I don't care where you are, I'll come and find you.

This guy's just asking for trouble.

He got here the day before yesterday.

-When did Monichan leave? -This morning.

Is it?

Maria, I know you're listening.

I want to see you. We need to talk.

I don't care where you are, I'll come and find you.

What's the point of crying now?

If he still hasn't learned, what can we do?

-What's happening, Basheer? -He's somewhere near Mysuru.

She's getting married tomorrow.

-Are you sure that's where he is? -He met his friends on the way.

Dear Lord!

Maybe he's meant to be beaten to death.

Listen, I'm not going to let some random Christians kill him.

Ayesha, prepare biriyani for our daughter-in-law.

Let's go, Basheer.

We know what to do.

It's not that I can't do it myself.

But if the media gets involved again,

it'll ruin our girl's life.

This isn't just your community's issue.

So, leave this to us.

We'll handle this.

-Where's he from? -Kozhikode.

We'll capture him at Chidambaravattam, then.

-The old Sultan Battery. -Ah!

We'll get him, somehow.

See you then, sir. Pranamam!

[together] Pranamam!

-We'll just sit back and watch! -Exactly!

Gopal ji, we finally have something to do.

Hope it won't cause trouble.

-Gopal ji… -Yes?

Isn’t it anti-national to help our third-biggest enemy?

Raghu, to defeat the greater enemy,

-it’s okay to help a smaller one. -That's right!

So, you need us to bring the girl from Mysuru and get them married?

What do you say? Shall we do it?

Of course! They've taken many of our girls!

Listen, Qasmi, they've made up their minds.

We'll set off a bomb, distract them, and take the girl.

Is the bomb really necessary?

Can’t we scare them with something smaller?

This fear…

is why our enemies trample over us.

Understand this.

It's not fear.

Why does it have to end in murder?

If not murder, then…

We'll chop off some arms. How about that?

We're experts at that!

Do whatever you want. But he has to marry her.

And he will.

-Listen. -Yes?

-Shall we go, then? -Of course!

-Already? -Let's go.

Are you… sure that's enough people?

If we really tried, we could get millions!

But a lot of them are in prison now.

And the rest are too afraid to even step outside.

-Morons! -As long as we get it done.

-Let's go, let's go! -Let's go son!

We have to drink tea!

Our next stop is for food.

What's wrong?

-It's not starting. -Damn it.

-What happened? -The car won't start.

Chief, look at all these roots! Hanging in the air like us!

Look!

I'm starving.

-My blood sugar's dropping. -A Kerala-registered vehicle.

-Get me some water. -Something's wrong.

Reverse the car.

Bring us some clean water!

-Pull over. -Wait! Did you say green?

I want plain water.

It shouldn't be "green" vegetables, either.

-Who's that? -A green car.

-What's wrong, son? -The battery's weak.

We're fixing it.

His wrist! The thread!

Yes, it's dead. It needs to be scrubbed clean.

Otherwise, the battery won't work.

What?

You're hungry? Eat some biriyani, then.

Basheer, move the car there.

Give it to me.

Chief, can we ask them for food?

Don't ask me. Ask them!

Hi.

My chief is hungry. Poor guy.

Do you have any food?

He's hungry?

Oh, sure.

We've got beef biriyani.

What? Beef?!

Let’s see.

-Beef?! -Yes.

-Can we search a little longer? -This is enough for today.

Let's get a room here for the night.

Search any longer, and I’ll die.

He keeps hanging up.

Message him on WhatsApp.

Send him our location.

Suhasini Palace.

Come.

-Sir. -Well, what's going on?

Tonight, we'll keep watch.

Have a drink or two and sleep peacefully.

Right?

Will this even work?

I've got this.

-I'll handle it. -If it goes south, run!

Remember the Edappal incident! Got it? Let's go.

-Davis! -Yeah.

-All good here? -Yes, we're all set.

We really can't trust them.

Keep an eye on them.

Poulose and the boys are at the junction.

If he sets foot here, he'll regret it!

What are they doing here?

You're right.

We’ll be here. We’ll handle it when he gets here.

Sure.

Maybe they're biriyani caterers.

We should ban the biriyani.

-But we might need it someday. -Oh, never mind, then.

-It'd better be beef. -Qasmi.

Are they here for more biriyani?

They'll never get it.

Those are his friends.

I'll call you.

But where's Asif?

You! Haven't you had enough?

I'm here to show my gratitude.

What the hell? Stop this nonsense.

No lord can stop us from the Lord’s church.

-Let's go. -Hey!

-Who’s the new guy? -Only God knows.

-Please have a seat inside. -Okay.

Look at his golden robe!

Praise Jesus.

How’s everything going?

The groom will arrive soon.

God! He was in the car too?!

Is he with them as well?

Father, please come with me.

Come quickly, before they dunk him in the water.

-In the water? -Yes.

This isn't our problem. We'll stay out of it.

Will we be left on the outside then?

-Come. -Okay.

-He's getting circumcised. -Will they do that again?

Come on.

I'm not sure if this is the place to say this.

But he came to see me yesterday.

He wants to speak with you directly.

Not a chance, Bishop.

This is about our child's life.

I know. It's a family issue.

But I couldn't refuse him when he came to me, crying.

The rest is up to you.

The groom and his lot will be here soon.

-And now this. -Davis.

Remember who you're speaking to.

Let him say his piece and leave.

Dad, I want to talk to Maria.

Then I'll leave.

We've already been humiliated once in front of our friends and family.

And that was all because of you.

If you really meant to call me "Dad,"

I have one request.

Please don't hurt us.

I know you had so many hopes for her.

Taking her away on the eve of her wedding…

was unforgivable.

I swear, that wasn't my intention.

But that's how it happened.

Asi…

We dreamed of building a life together.

But you left without saying a word.

Why?

I need to know.

-That's what I'm here for. -Seriously?

This could've been a phone call. Why waste all this time?

What did I do wrong, Maria?

That's all I want to know. Then I'll leave.

You didn't do anything wrong.

The issue…

is your name, Asif.

Yes, sir. I'm with her now.

No need, sir. I'll speak with her.

Okay, sir.

That was Davis.

Your uncle, Davis sir.

Dear.

We can easily charge him with terrorism.

Or even a bombing charge using just his name.

But I won't do that.

If you love him, repeat what I say in court.

"I want to live with my parents."

That's all you have to say. Right?

I know you will.

Don't make trouble for me.

Rather than imprison him forever,

let him live happily somewhere.

We dreamed of a happily ever after.

Not to see you in prison

or make me run around the court.

My name is the problem?

I'll change my name.

I can convert to Christianity.

Will that fix your problem?

Will she become mine?

That won't solve anything!

They're crazy! Crazy about religion!

Look at your uncle and his gang.

They're here to get you married to a Christian girl.

But if your daughters want to marry a Christian boy, would you allow it?

No!

We're all equally to blame!

It's fine if a girl from another faith marries into yours.

But the inverse?

It's all "jihad," communalism, honor killing, and whatnot!

I have a request for you all.

These two love each other more than life itself.

Please, just let them live happily.

Dad, I'll take care of her as well as you did.

I can't live without you.

I love you so much.

Jesus taught us to love one another.

If they both can follow their faiths

-and live happily-- -How is that possible?

Thomaskutty has already been humiliated once.

He reconsidered only because I spoke to him.

Davis, be quiet.

Father, it's up to us to bring about change.

-Hey, son. -Yes, Dad.

-Have you left? -We're about to.

All good there, right?

-Can I speak to Maria once? -Sure.

It's Thomaskutty.

Maria, you look amazing!

-Have the guests arrived? -Yeah.

What did you think?

That you'd cry and beg, and I'd agree to marry you again?

Elope, fall in love, do whatever you like!

But leave innocents like me in peace.

You and your family must suffer for this.

Suffer the shame of such humiliation.

I'm saying something important. Pay attention here!

This is my revenge.

Thomaskutty's sweet revenge.

Who's that behind you? What's he doing here?!

-Thanks, bro. Perfect timing! -Hey!

Screw this!

Pour it!

Damn coat!
