'Kayilan'

'Perfectionist'

[TV NEWS] Police officer Padmanaban
mysteriously electrocuted.

- Hi
- Hi, Sagu.

Did the opposition get word about
today's debate?

No, they skipped out.

They feel this program isn't widely seen.

Hm...!

Turn it into news, then.

Debate Topic: Will a party that
fears debate ever come to power?

But if anything goes wrong..!

We'll manage.

Sagu..!

Yes, Sir.

Your Program 'Porattangal'
Got a Huge Response Yesterday.

Ok.

Thank You, Sir.

[Phone Buzzing]

Hello.

Been calling all day.
You didn't pick up.

Mom..!

You were going to ask if I ate and
reached safely, right?

Hey, I know if you had a child,
you'd ask about them.

Mom..!

I ate and I'm safe.
Is that enough?

I've told you not to call me
during office hours.

I'll call you once I get home.

Alright, madam.
have fun with your work!

Hm..!

Nowadays, kids are bored
of talking to their moms.

I don't know what to say.

[Mail Notification]

Definitely.
I'm excited to come in person.

Next month, first week, right?

Ok, Madam.

I'll get back to you
in two days, ma'am.

What is this?

WhatsApp spam?

That's what I first thought.

But it feels strange.
Should we break this story?

Be careful.

Might be Naxal-related info.

If that happens,
we'll face pressure from MIB.

We'll handle it, sir.

It came in the mail.

So we have the source of information.

This is sellable news.
If it breaks, TRP spikes.

We should've done this
before the other channels did.

Then do it.

Sure, Sir.

Also, plan a debate
on this for tonight.

- Sure Sir.
- Ok.

BREAKING:
The fight for freedom begins again.

A major assault on the nation
is anticipated shortly...

...according to a warning
received by our news agency.

It has also been reported
that the attack will take place on...

...the third day from today.

And it is stated that people must follow
the instructions when given.

[Telephone Rings]

Hello.

Sir, check Channel number 356,
the news is very serious.

Additionally, the email
outlines several points.

Hello Sir.

This is Assistant Commissioner Rajeev
from the Intelligence Wing.

Tell me, sir.

What news are you broadcasting?

We received the info via email, Sir.

And since the source is reliable,
I broadcasted it.

Whatever it is, Sir.
will you air anything?

Stop it right away, first.

Come to the Commissioner's office
with the relevant documents.

Sure.

Ok, Sir.

Stop this news and
go for a commercial break.

But why now, mam?
Things are going well.

Just do as I say.

As expected.

Commissioner wants us there, Now.
To explain everything.

Handle it.
Take the lawyer with you.

Ok Sir.

[TV NEWS] Police officer Manivaasagam
dies during scan at private hospital.

Morning Madam.

So... Commissioner gave you
a warm welcome?

If it's good for some, that's fine.

Come on, ma'am. TRP blew up
yesterday now it's crashed hard!

Hoping today brings
something good too.

[Notification Sound]

Hello.

Sir, Sagunthala here, News Seven.

Tell me.

Got a mail like yesterday's.
I forwarded it, can you check?

You didn't air it like yesterday, did you?

- No Sir.
- Good.

I'll deal with it.

Sagu..!

Independence Day doc is ready
and in edit for the weekend slot.

We'll render it after your review.

Can we get coffee first?

It's yours.

- Thanks.
- Pleasure.

So, who's headed to Delhi
for Independence Day?

Editor says you're the one.

If it's Republic Day, I'm all in.
it's a colorful event.

Same old trick
DD clip with our magic subtitles.

[Chuckles]

[Phone starts ringing]

Who?

No idea
just a private number.

Answer it. Probably another
breaking story for you.

Really..!

Hello.

Greetings, Sagunthala.
How do you do?

Who's this?

I'm Kaari.

The new-age rebel.

- Yesterday's mail..!
- Trace the call.

- It's from me.
- Call the Asst. Commissioner.

You failed to clearly pass
my warning to the people.

Who are you?
Why'd you send that mail to me?

They found out who I am
from the mail you forwarded to the AC.

But, Sharing news with the public
that's your duty.

Which organization are you with?

Terrorist? Or publicity-seeker?

Don't waste my time with
pointless questions.

Air my news first.

If you're serious, come live.
I'll do the interview.

Sure, I'll come.

My first interview all yours
after this freedom war.

But now, follow my orders first.

Why the hell should I listen to
someone hiding their face?

You've already dragged our channel
into an inquiry.

We can't act without proof.

You never took me seriously, Sagunthala.
I'm not built like you.

What I'm saying is not a rumor
or fake news.

This is my last warning.

Flash the News.

- Or..!
- Or else what?

Thanjavur... that's home for
your mom, right?

Call your mom, then.

Hey! Why the hell should I call?

You think bringing up
my mom scares me?

You've got 120 seconds, Sagunthala.

Don't blame me after that.

Call Her.

I'll stay on the line.

[Phone Rings]

Hello.

Well, surprise!
You're actually calling your mom.

Where are you?

In the kitchen, Making dishes.

[Explosion sound]

- [Shouting in fear]
- Mom, what's going on?

Hello..!

Don't be scared, Sagunthala.

Took out your front,
30 seconds is all I need to do the rest.

This isn't a joke anymore. Got it?

Keep the call on.
Go to the live room.

I'm watching you.

[NEWS V.O.] Chennai Police Commissioner
issues an order.

Keep the live feed running.

- Go live with what I'm saying. Now.
- Ok.

- Greetings, from Kaari.
- Greetings, from Kaari.

- In two days...
- In two days...

- To save our country...
- To save our country...

- A new freedom war...
- A new freedom war...

...Will begin

If you don't want to panic
during this protest...

...stock up enough supplies
to last three weeks...

...food, medicine, essentials, and cash.

Hold off on gatherings, travel,
and big plans.

No protest comes without pain or loss.

- In this protest...
- What's all this?

- any loss you face...
- It all started with some phone call.

...consider a sacrifice for the country.

Sir, the call's untraceable.

- What? Try it again.
- Ok Sir.

I'm not saying this to scare
or confuse you.

Starting tomorrow...

...things will shift...

...your future and the country's...

...will never be the same.

Jai Hind!

Victory to Tamil!

[Phone Buzzing]

Hello, Mom!

I'm fine, dear.

All of it happened outside.

Police are on it. I'm fine, really.
You stay safe.

Ok, mom.

Cut the feed, Right now!

- What is going on?!
- It all started with some phone call.

Sagu..!

- Don't cry.
- It's ok, Sagu.

Dear Lord Ganesh...

COVID just left,
And now they say war's lining up.

Looks like life's stuck
on war mode.

Man, no one should
get hurt in this war.

Thinking of telling the assembly
give everyone at home a gun.

- Pretty cool, isn't it?
- Awesome, boss!

Hey guys, look!
war's about to happen!

Screw the war, man.
Just watch the match.

Whose hands are all over this?

By airing it live, they've escalated
it to a national level.

Ma'am, investigation is underway.

Just before Independence Day
they shook the whole country...

...by airing that news.

What did you do to
that news channel?

Ma'am, the investigation says
it's not linked to any terrorist group.

Not just that news channel...

...He's sent the same mail to millions.
Even to me!

Not just that, ma'am.
we've tightened national security too.

We've provided 7-layer security
at all key locations.

And more troops have been deployed
at the border.

And all public places guarded.

That's what he said
just stay in and don't go out.

What are we gonna do?
Say that first!

Posts violating national interest?

We've asked all social media sites
to remove those posts, ma'am.

We've sent orders to the news channels
as well, ma'am.

If it's an international call,
they've been told to tap it.

That report on the blast?
It might give us something.

Ma'am, TN Special Force is on it.
Report expected this evening.

Even if we miss him, it's fine.
but we can't let his warning come true.

Don't make him a
hero for no reason.

Then another one like him
will rise just like this.

Who's handling this case?

Ma'am, it all started in Chennai and
the key people involved are Tamil's.

So, South Zone SP Aadhirai has appointed
a team under her command ma'am.

She'll take charge.

Where is she now?

[Singing "Thillai Vaazh Andhanar"]
a sacred hymn from the Thevaram.

You're singing so well, dear.

He asked about her education and work.
I said, "Ask her yourself."

He's 35 now.

After studies and job and all that,
he's finally said yes to marriage.

She's an IPS officer, SP in NIA

It took her years to finish all that
studies and career.

Come, dear.
Sit with me.

Come!

Do you cook well?
Can you draw kolams too?

Good at cooking and
draws kolam too!

Hm..!

Is that even real hair?

Grandma, try to act
a little more decent.

She's so rude has no
idea how to treat a guest!

Don't talk nonsense
just leave first!

- Please.
- Sorry.

Once again, a freedom fight!

We're still debating
was it just noise, or a real win?

Saravanan sir, you
mentioned it earlier.

Under our leadership,
the military holds supreme power...

...You said no foreign army
could stand a chance.

...an Indian
declares war on his own nation.

He told everyone in India to
prepare for the fight.

And he didn't even say
what kind of war it is.

At a time like this...

So tell me military strength
can solve this? Right now?

How did you decide he's Indian?

He said it like that, sir?

He didn't just break the peace
he wants to attack our nation.

- He can't possibly be Indian.
- Then what, neighboring country?

Sir, Doesn't matter
if he's Indian or not...

...If he does what he says,
can your government handle it?

Say that first, sir.

They can't even control
their own people, sir.

What, you think we can't deal with this?

I live with a wife, man.
This? This is nothing.

The Home Minister clearly stated
the plan beforehand.

This is how they handle national security?
not Like a movie release?

Sir, this is a security issue.
we need to go door to door!

You show up at every house
only when you want votes!

[Indistinct chatters]

- Show up for the problems too.
- We aren't trained for that.

Hello..!

Let's keep quiet.

It's a national matter
needs to be handled quietly.

You're always quiet, aren't you?

You'll nab him, then hail him
like a freedom fighter.

Cut the nonsense.
shoot these traitors first, sir.

Saravanan sir, divisive voices
are dominating the nation right now.

On the other side, protests swell.
Isn't this all aimed at the government?

The way I see this...

...Looks like just a
common young man...

...Holding on to hope that this somehow
helped the country.

How does he even
know the guy's young?

There's a connection between
that young man and him.

And next, you'll be like.
I was that guy!

Why can't he be sixty? Or a grandma?
How'd he decide he's young?

- Alright then...
- Yes, Ask him?

...Someone still thinks good can
come out of this country.

Freedom struggle?
what is this?

Do you know anything about it?

May be Gandhi.

Non-violent fight
that's a freedom struggle.

Hurting one to help another
that's not freedom.

If he's fighting for the people,
isn't he one of them too?

Did you hear?
There's talk of war.

What next?
M60s and MP40s for everyone?

You caught the war news?

The way it's blown up,
something big is definitely coming.

It's all drama to pull attention away
from NEET and the farmers' protest.

Hary? Is he some Hollywood star or what?

Oh no, missed Insta all morning.
rom-com gossip going on?

People are divided...

...some support him,
others resist.

What happens next...
we'll find out soon.

These days, dividing opinions are
sweeping across the nation.

Protests are erupting everywhere.

Is this just another protest...

...or the start of something bigger?
Time will tell.

Blast report from Sagunthala's house
just came in Bangalore.

Anything suspicious?

Just Half-KG stuff.
Not meant for anything big.

- Detonator type device?
- It's a remote done via mobile.

They used ammonium nitrate
and potassium chloride.

- So, nothing new?
- Same old stuff.

- Oh..!
- He's definitely trained for this.

Anything new?

It's the rechargeable
battery, new model.

- I'm guessing they purchased it online.
- May be.

In that case, I need all
the battery details.

Hello, I've sent you the details.

Give me the dispatch details of
this battery type from the past 30 days.

Okay, then. Bye.

- Anyway, thank you, sir.
- Thank you.

Aadhirai, have you heard about
the threat call?

Sounds like nothing but a rumour to me.

But we need to catch him to prove it to
the public and the media.

It's your team your call.

Figure out who he is...
and what's making him do all this.

But I want the results immediately.

We should not let him
do anything further.

Sure, sir. I'll take care of it.
Thank you.

Your thoughts on this threat?

I can't figure it out.

Definitely not the old group
this kind of warning is new.

All this phone madness...
he seems like a total psycho.

He's threatening us with something
that's practically impossible.

He's just a crack.
or maybe a publicity seeker.

That can't be true.

He's telling the truth and
also very clear.

Feels like something huge is coming.

Seriously? Now you're making him
sound like a truth-speaker?

He's anti-national.

The entire nation's
shaken because of him.

So what? I'm just telling
you all my opinion.

- Some sense you have to...
- That's enough, Sanjay.

That's just her perspective.

Ok!

If they were really a big group,
they would've bombed something...

...or hijacked and made demands.

But while we're all distracted,
they're planning something big.

Indhu, use all our resources and
double-check everything.

Anything odd people, explosives, movement
don't ignore. Could be key.

Noted ma'am.

Kishore, check if anything turned up
in the bomb blast case.

- Ok!
- Sure, Adhirai.

Let's see what happens tomorrow.

All national security agencies...

...Monitoring has been stepped up
to ensure nothing goes wrong.

Don't share anything unless
it's officially verified...

- we ask the public's support.
- Next move, ma'am?

Any update on Kaari, ma'am?

- How long will it take to nab him?
- Any idea who he might be?

Wait!

The NIA team is working on it.

We'll get him in the next 48 hours.

- Spit it out who did it?
- [Yells in pain]

- Murali.
- Sir.

Spit it out.

Sir, I do project work for
engineering students.

I'm not the kind of guy you think.

They said it's just a small bomb
won't hurt anyone.

They routed the money through hawala.

Honestly, sir. I never thought
it would blow up like this.

- Murali.
- Sir.

See if the hawala trail gives
us the sender's identity.

Send his number to the tech team.
Ask them to analyze it.

So you're into both god and Periyar?
That's your version of feminism?

He's a fighter for equality.

Anything against it
he questioned it hard.

Even God included.

No god has ever spoken
against it equality.

Those trading in God's name
are the ones saying it.

- See? I know...
- Back to politics? Do your job first.

- Hello.
- SI, Murali here, ma'am.

- Speak.
- Ma'am, the hawala guy's been caught.

By his statement, the money route is
Malaysia ? Dubai ? India, ma'am.

- I've mailed the details, ma'am.
- I'll check.

Ok, ma'am.

[Phone rings]

Tell me, Indhu.

When we tracked the hawala transfer...

It linked back to the
Central Government Relief Fund.

What?

Ok.

If this sparks change and makes us
a superpower, That'd be good, right?

We've seen dozens like this...
this'll end up a rumour too, watch.

I'll be there in 15 min.

Get the car and checkout done.
I'm already late for my flight.

Yes, sir.

Ma'am, the card got declined.

What?

Sir, card declined.

- Declined?
- Yes Sir.

Please give.

Sorry, sir, your card
isn't working.

Wait..!
why is it showing zero?

- Insufficient balance...?
- How...?

Hello.

Customer care?

Customer care?

Welcome to ABC Bank.
How can I help you Sir.

They're saying there's
no money in my account.

- May I know your name, sir?
- C.Prasanna

- Date of birth, sir?
- 26-05-1992

Last four digits of your card, sir?

Thanks for holding.
Your account's at zero balance, sir.

You said what?!

Sir, please double-check
my 80K salary came in this morning!

No sir, your balance is zero.

What the hell are you saying?!

Checking your account, sir.
Just a moment.

Kindly hold a moment.

It's true, ma'am.
Your balance is zero.

Your account is showing zero. Sir.

[Too many voices at once...]

[Voices everywhere...]

- Sir..!
- Yes.

One huge issue.

What?

All customers' bank balances show zero.

Public in shock.

All accounts...
zero since midnight.

Addressing the issue,
the CM speaks out.

To the cherished people of Tamil Nadu
my warmest greetings from the heart.

This crisis hitting every
bank in Tamil Nadu.

It's truly unfortunate.

I've requested the Prime Minister
over phone to take immediate steps.

We will ensure continuous supply of
milk and biscuits for children.

...and all daily essentials like
veggies and provisions...

..Across Tamil Nadu, through
Amudham stores and cooperative warehouses...

...Free distribution is being arranged
through fast-tracked efforts.

All costs for this initiative will be
met by the Tamil Nadu government.

In such times, we must all
act together in unity...

...and I earnestly ask you all to extend
your support to the government.

This issue will be resolved
quickly I promise.

God... so this month's pay
is a big question mark?

Nice! No salary, no EMI.
Life's simple now.

- List every problem this could lead to.
- Alright, I'll do it.

Seriously? I warned no one
should come and you're here?

- Sir, it's an emergency.
- Emergency, huh? What now?

[Gasps]

Following the disappearance of
all funds from the accounts...

...Journalists are collecting voices
from the streets. Let's see those now.

Sir, not a single account has funds.
How are you handling it?

It's all gone digital. And now can't buy
anything without money in hand.

Who is he to fix the country?
We're the ones paying the price!

Sir, There's no money anywhere.
What are you going to do now?

He took even the Auto EMI amount.

Only the local shop owner
giving us things on loan.

Only the government can save us.

With zero balance across accounts,
how are you dealing with it, sir?

Just enough money
to run the house.

He made me penniless in a day
and I still owe salaries!

Sir, all accounts are empty.
How's the poultry trade going?

Everything in my business runs on
online transactions.

I don't even have 5 paisa in
the account today.

We're just waiting for
the government to act.

All the money's gone, no one has cash.
how are you surviving in business?

Not like we're rich. They took even
that little bit the govt gave us.

They borrow, we lend, and just like
that we're falling apart too.

Bro, with zero balance everywhere,
how are you keeping this going.

Nobody has cash. I'm running
the whole mess on loans.

Not sure if Kaari's helping or hurting.

It'll help if the government takes a
proper decision and acts on it.

Voices from across the spectrum
were heard during our live session.

Jenifer Ilamaran, TV6 News
with cameraperson Ameen

So they did this...
now what?

Ma'am, to prevent the spread
of these rumours...

...We've issued orders to cut all
internet access and phone lines.

Only our internal communication
systems will stay operational.

We've issued orders to block all
newspapers and TV channels.

And IT specialists are already working
to bring our bank server back online.

In 2 hours, the Finance Minister...

...has arranged a meeting with bank
officials at the RBI office in Chennai.

Will get more details
after the meeting, ma'am.

Ok.

Sir, Home Minister on the line.

Hello, Sir. Good Morning.
Any updates?

Still analyzing the situation, madam.

I'll give an update
in 2 hours, madam.

Ok.

- Which banks have been hacked?
- Every bank got hit, sir. RBI too.

Tomorrow's payday for govt staff.

Sir, not even ten paise
left in the account!

Technically, in paper,
our government is penniless now.

Can someone explain what just happened?

Is our security system really this bad?

Sir, our security system is
one of the best in the world.

- I'll explain how.
- I didn't come here just to learn that.

How do we fix this?

If an issue occurs and we lose
access to a data center...

...We can only run it using
its backup center, sir.

For example, a few years ago...

Back when the floods hit Chennai, none
of the data centers could be accessed.

In that situation, we had to
rely on the alternate backup.

Then what? Had to activate the
connection from the backup center, right?

He hacked every center and
even firewalled it, sir

We can't even get in
it's all under his control now.

Then how come he's able to access it?

Did you set up the firewall and
safety checks properly?

We've actually set up three
different firewalls, madam.

For security reasons, we split it between
three companies not just one.

Each segment is secured by
an individual firewall.

Today, cyber attacks have struck
everywhere, especially banks.

Very unfortunate.

It's this easy to hack?
Doesn't make much sense.

Ma'am, every firewall is protected
with a 16-digit alphanumeric password.

So the chances of that happening?
One in a zillion.

So, three passwords for three phases?

Three passwords each with
a one in three zillion chance.

And all these passwords are
updated once every hour.

And Based on these possibilities...

Cracking the password in an hour
is practically impossible, ma'am.

So then, how did they hack it?

So, what's the solution here?

Finding him is the only way, sir.

Hey, what nonsense are you up to?

The whole country is falling apart.

Everything from import,
export, stock market all of it.

People are scrambling
like dogs just to get food?

You're just saying it simply?!

Sir, this might not be a machine hack
it could've been done by people directly.

I mean.

Not necessarily a system breach, sir.
Maybe someone from the inner circle did it

- There's a chance,
- It's possible, sir

Top officials from all three companies
had access to the passwords, sir.

I want everyone's details
whoever knows about this.

Seemed like a small thing
in the beginning...

Any updates, Kishore?

The money trail behind
the bomb found him.

Maybe we'll find a lead.

Ok.

Who handles cyber security
for these banks?

Wam security solutions.

Hm. Let's go.

It's just a technical fault.

Our software experts are
working to fix it.

Hold tight.
they'll fix it soon.

Thank you, everyone.

Thanks.

[Indistinct chatters]

Phones not permitted, madam.

- Hello, ma'am.
- Hi.

I'm Arun, Chief executive.

- How many people work here in total?
- Only 27.

All are IT professionals and Four admins.
And they work in 2 or 3 shifts regularly.

Only 27 people in
such a big company?

Why?

It's a coding company,
not a typing center.

That means we need
senior-level talent.

Our PTA is quite high.
I mean, package.

Every shift has 8 coders and 1 chief.
Total comes to 27.

All are PhD holders,
and everyone's here right now.

- I Need to meet him.
- Sorry.

I Need to meet him.

Yes, you can.

You question the others.

Hi, I'm Aadhirai.

I'm Keeran, Data analyst.

Tell me
What are the possibilities?

What?

I asked about
the hacking case.

Oh!

So the firewall is 16 digit...

We've already been
briefed on all that.

But this went beyond that, right?

You think he did all this
without help from people in here?

It's not so simple.

We change the password
after every shift.

So, it's impossible for
anyone to reach out.

Then how?

In fact!

This office handles security
for just one bank.

But all the banks got hacked
something's not right

Can we reach it from
the system here.

No way.

This is way too complex to pull off
like they do in the movies.

Everything we code is saved to
the main system via the cloud.

It's all virtual. We don't even
have access to modify the programs.

In fact, it's impossible to establish
a connection with these systems.

Because it's the safest and
decentralized private network.

This is where we
do all the coding.

Code written by one person
can't be accessed by another.

You'd have seen outside
electronic devices aren't allowed.

Then how can anyone even break it?

That's what I don't get.

Even we couldn't figure out
how that's possible.

In fact, networks like this
have multiple firewalls.

No matter who does what,
it gets reported right away.

Our job is to record everything
and find the loopholes.

Companies like ours, with all kinds of
resources, have tried to breach it.

And it's an ever-evolving algorithm.

No machine in the world can break
this complex algorithm.

Could a supercomputer
have done this?

Connect four P4s
it becomes a supercomputer.

But you can't hack it like that
it needs strong coding.

How can you say that?

Work that takes a crore people a year...
it has to be done in seconds.

Even then, it's really hard.

Is it possible that some other country
or group pulled this off?

Possible, if they have time,
resources, and money.

Maybe they got in through some backdoor
and hacked the network from within?

Finding the real breach point
is the only way to fix this.

That's what the entire
team is focused on.

Start walking from here to there.

What?

Walk from here to there.

Is this an investigation?

Deal with me officially.
I'm not your slave.

Alright, let's handle this officially.

Sanjay, Take him to private room.

What?

I suspect he is hiding some electronic
transporting device with him.

- Listen
- Somewhere..!

Here.

What?

Check him thoroughly,
make it video and show it to me.

What job is this, exactly?

- Just do what you're told.
- Ok

A suspect or not, you can't treat
someone like this. I know the law.

It's kind of an emergency.

I can do anything officially by law.

Ok!

Ok!

Ok!

I'll do it.

Sing a song.

- No, This is too much.
- Sing a Song

- Sanjay!
- Yes.

No, Ok!

Ok!

I'll Sing.

All bank funds vanished;
crowds gathered at the bank and ATM.

When will it be set right?

Is this the work of a foreign agenda?

No Idea Sir.

Hm..!

That much money?
How could they even do it?

How did they take it out?

The money is with us only, sir.

No idea how much is
in whose account.

Then let's do one thing say the money
in that account is invalid...

...and ask them to open a new one.

Let's not do it that way, sir.

Then economy will crash too, sir.

We'll fix everything in a week.

Hm..!

People are really suffering.

It's our job to make everything right.

- Try to solve it fast.
- Ok Sir.

Let me talk to the people.

Our experts are still working
hard to fix the problem.

I'm giving you my word...

...Everything will be fixed
within ten days.

I understand you're struggling.

Why?
Just for this nation?

Give me ten days
just ten days. Be patient

Before that deadline, we'll end
this crisis and shape a new India

In this difficult situation
throughout all hospitals...

...I've issued orders to provide
free service to the public.

I request everyone to stay calm and
be a strong support to this government.

Jai Hind!

Uh..!

Hereafter, everyone will be talking
about this speech

There'll be less pressure on us...
we can plan things out slowly

The Home Ministry keeps pressuring
me with nonstop calls every 30 minutes.

All you do is laugh while
everything burns!

How far are you in the case?

When will you find out?

We found the culprit Sir!

Two people were
the masterminds behind this

We've tracked down both
their locations, Sir!

Where are they?

Is the source reliable?

Sir! They're casually having
sambar vada in Mylapore!

Constables are gone from
the local station.

They'll arrest and bring them now!

Aadhirai..!
we are not kids.

Yes Sir, everyone in this case is
skilled with tech.

Capable of making and
coding a supercomputer.

No evidence at all, sir.

Who sent the mail?

Who called? From where?

We don't know anything about it

We found the account number, but since
it's the government's, it's of no use.

We're searching blindly, sir
no idea who or where.

We'll find him, sir

But please give us some time.

We can't continue with this
such type of excuses.

Yes sir, I understand.

[Phone buzzing]

- Hello.
- Greetings, Sophia.

- Who?
- Kaari here.

Hold on, The Signal's weak here.

- Hello, Sanjai.
- Tell me, Sophie.

Kaari is on my line.

Tap my phone.

What...?!
come.

Kari is on Sophie's line.

Go ahead, it's clear now.

I need to speak with
Chellai Varadharajan, the HRD Minister.

I have to explain my demands to her.

She needs to be at Sagunthala's
news channel. 7 PM sharp.

I need it to go live when I speak to Her.

The whole country should hear it.

Drop the recording part.
Tell your team to arrange it live.

I'll call back sharp at 7 PM.

What I say must go
out exactly as it is.

Victory to Tamil!

Why is he suddenly reaching out
through Sophia?

What's the link between her and him?

First, Sagunthala.

Now, Sophia.

Next, Chellai Varadharajan.

Everyone he's contacted so far
is a woman, Sanjay.

Check if there's any pattern in it.

We've got a golden opportunity now
we must track his call.

Indhu, make all the possible arrangements

Once we trace his location,
we'll grab him within 5 minutes.

- Let's do this, guys!
- Yes ma'am.

To the Minister of HRD
Chellai Varadharajan...

Kaari is set to make major demands at 7 PM
nationwide interest is at its peak.

Which camera?

- Second one, ma'am.
- Sure.

[Telephone ringing]

Take the call.

Hello, Mrs. Chellai Varadharajan.
How are you?

Hello Kaari, I'm fine.

Since you've studied MA history,
I've got a lot of questions.

I thought it's best to confirm
it with you directly.

For this, you could've just told
me over a coffee at home?

All this chaos...
was it really necessary?

And for this,
you're letting people suffer?

Tell us your demands
we can talk and settle this.

But first, help us fix the banking system.

Who's really affected here
the people or the companies?

What do you want now?

The British East India Company
that enslaved and ruled our India.

Did they come here to trade?
Or to rule us?

They originally came just for trade.

From trade to throne
how did that happen?

It's a long story and needs time.
How is that even related?

I'll tell you.

Where exactly did they
begin to take control, ma'am?

24 Parganas, Calcutta.

How did it fall into their hands?

In one war, the Nawab of Kolkata took
weapons and men from the British.

As a substitute for the money...

...Nawab let the East India Company take
tax directly from the land ruled by him.

Was it supposed to be one-time?
But how did they make it permanent?

Collecting tax needed manpower,
money, and time right?

So the Nawab let the East India Company
handle it for a small commission.

For example, The East India Company
give the Nawab 25k...

...but collected 1 lakh cruelly
from the people.

Yeah, I get it.

And now, here's my biggest doubt?

The government aimed to
cut work and costs...

...Build roads wherever.
Charge whatever.

that's the contract government
gives to corporates now...

...Is there really any difference between
this and colonial tax collection?

Kaari, That kind of thing costs
lakhs of crores.

Govt didn't hold that
kind of investment.

They're managing with
borrowed money too.

The support and clearance corporates
get from the govt...

And if the govt started a company
with unemployed educated youths...

That same investment bank
will it lend money or not?

Is it possible or not?

It's !

It's possible. But?

So take all the toll gate licenses,
start a company like I suggested.

Same model should be followed
for all major projects.

Not just that From now, no retail space
in India should go beyond 5000 sq.ft.

Just because big companies have money...

...They're setting up huge showrooms
beyond necessity and charging high prices.

That guy's been doing business
there for generations...

...Unable to compete with him,
he now works at that very shop.

An honest man who earned right,
and helped others earn too...

...You turned a once successful
owner into a servant today.

Nothing else matters
if you've got money.

built giant buildings, hoarded goods,
and crushed small traders

Only four people run the whole
game and take all the returns.

People don't matter to them at all.

They care only for profit.

Right after the hack, every large
store was shut tight

Only the small traders in
the neighborhood...

...understand the people and
help those without cash.

We've been destroying
people like this.

Since there was regulation,
everyone made an effort.

There will be healthy competition,
benefits for all, and growth will follow.

In this globalized world,
everything is now in private hands.

If our people want to be masters,
not slaves, they need legal protection.

Then, everything here
is just about money.

The current money-driven education
system has to be reformed.

We need an education system
that values society above all.

When education shifts from earning money
to building society...

That change a society without greed,
grounded in care for its people.

Only then, all forms of
corruption will vanish.

We need laws, and constitutional
amendments that can't be easily reversed.

Fast! Come on!

Aadhirai..!

We've located Kaari.

I'm not asking if it's possible or not
I'm saying it must be done.

Or else?

I'll seize the funds from big corporate
and share them fairly with the public.

Police! Hurry, run!

Thanks for hearing out my demands
with patience.

Victory to Tamil!

See, Kaari,
this can't be done just like that.

I'll talk to the PM.

That call is routed to several
global locations

But the origin is Chennai

Where in Chennai

Uh... ma'am, the thing is...

What's wrong, Sophia?
Where exactly in Chennai?

Ma'am, it was from our SIT office number.

What..!!

Our office?!

Yeah...
looks like he called from that number

Even with so much tech and intelligence,
we still lost him

We couldn't even locate where or how
he is operating from.

The moment his call connects...

...Didn't we tell telecom to cut
all other connections?

Didn't they do it?

We informed all
telecom operators, ma'am. but-

They couldn't track him.

At the same situation...

...He had control over all the networks.

He just has a better hold than us.

[Sarcastic Laugh]

So catching those two in Mylapore
ends the case, right Aathirai?

Nothing is happening. Damn..!

Shit!

Yesss..!

Yes..!

Yesss..!

Got it!

What happened? You look like
you've got a hangover.

You didn't even drink much last night

Heyyy..!

I found it, Aathirai!

I cracked where he hacked us.

Who?

Aurora Industries-ATM Manufacturers!

They're the ones running 80% of sales
and service in India

They added a nano chip secretly in 51 ATMs

They've connected it separately
to the main board

That's how they got into the networks...
and hacked them.

To be honest...

...Till now, I couldn't trace
the data destination.

Also couldn't hack that firewall.

But my team is still working on it.

Somebody is working with them indeed.
It's an inside job.

In Chennai, the manufacturing unit is in
Maraimalai Nagar.

[Groaning]

This is the state for every one of you.

All have been working for 10 years in
Aurora Industries...

...That too in a sensitive department.

Your actions have put the
whole nation at risk.

It's an act of Terrorism.

Sanjay..!

Strip them down.
Interrogate every single one.

After that, arrest whoever's at
their house and bring them here.

That's when truth comes.

Madam, please spare my family... please!

Get up.

Say it!

He threatened to kill
my wife and kids, madam.

- He gave the money also, madam
- How much did he give?

20 lakhs, madam.

Because of that money,
my son is alive today.

How would he be?

I've only talked to him on the phone,
never seen him in person.

I was terrified when I heard
his voice in TV yesterday, madam.

Had no idea it'd turn into such
a big problem, madam.

How did you get the money?

He told me to use the phrase
'green note 5' at a shop in Paris, madam.

As soon as I said it,
they gave me the money.

Same Hand.

'What? Kaari's been caught?'

[FM Voice] 'Nothing actually happened,
but the state is buzzing over it.'

Indhu, Find out who he is and bring him.

This is the first case in 10 years
that's left me this baffled.

Every lead I follow goes nowhere.

Damn it..!

- Hello.
- Hi, Keeran.

Aadhirai..!

Good Morning!

Impressive, bro.
You've done a lot in such a short time.

But..! That's not going to bring me down.

Looks like you're trying really hard to
crack my firewall. Are you?

[laughs sarcastically]

Those who try never fail... right?
Best wishes!

Praising your enemy-that's true strength.

Hiding your face like that
you're nothing but a coward.

You're just a heartless psycho
who preys on the innocent.

A terrorist pretending to care
for the people.

I will hunt you down, Kaari.

[laughs sarcastically]

Aa...dhi...rai.
Voice of Manimegazhai!

Tamil (language), You like.

Also, You like Keeran.

And now,
there's a crush on him.

Three days ago, at 9:10 AM.

When Keeran came for the bride-seeing,
the NIA Chief handed you the case.

At present, you've been stuck at
the Perungalathur signal...

...waiting endlessly for the green.

What..!

Aadhirai, Keeran's sitting next to you...

...Indhu and Sanjay are
in the back seat. Right?

[Heroic laugh]

What the hell..?

I know everything Aadhirai.

Everything means,
Everything.

I know every single move you play.

You can't even come close to me.

All you know... is just my name.

That too... only because of me.

Do you know something, Aadhirai?

Keeran likes you as well.

He saved your name as
'Puppy' on his phone.

Uhh..! No.

Shit..!

So Aadhirai..!

Why don't you stop watching me...

...go romance him instead?

You're getting older too, huh?

Because...

...Catching me is beyond your reach.

You might stay hidden...

...Could be a real genius too.

But, Every culprit unknowingly
leaves a clue behind.

Maybe you left a trace too, Kaari.

that's exactly what I've been waiting for.

One Clue..!

Just one hint... and you'll be caught.

I'll come Kaari.

To sit in front of you.

Every single cell in your body
will feel the pain of...

...Why did I do this?

Even now, I'm right
in front of you, Aadhirai.

If you don't know it... or don't get it...
I'm not responsible.

You know why the signal's red?
Just so we could talk.

Try your best Aadhirai.
Good Luck!

What clue?

What all happened?

How could he have done all this?

No, Something wrong.

There's something I'm missing.

There's something unseen.

There's nothing in what happened.

He made calls to three people.

He only discussed formal matters.

There's nothing in it.

Sagunthala..!

Why..?

There are so many senior editors
why did he speak only to her?

Why he ignored Finance
and Home Ministers...

-and chose to speak only to
HRD Minister Chellai? Why?

Why he called Keeran..?

He knew I was with him.
then why leave me out?

Why only these 3...?

Is he trying to say something
through them?

Is there a connection between them?

Why contacted only Sophia from our team?

Is that the clue?

Or these people are the clue..?

Tell me.

Agencies catching them is one thing.
But we couldn't even find out who he is!

It's been 3 days..

People have completely lost their
faith in the banks.

Sir.. For time being,
we'll accept his demands.

We can handle that issue
differently later.

Sir, we shouldn't bow down to a terrorist.

And on top of that, all the corporate
CEO's are creating trouble.

FDI will leave the country.

It'll destabilize the economy.

We'll lose all trust from the
international community.

Our experts are trying to cut
the working connections...

...and attempting to restore the balance
from the server.

It's expected to be resolved
within two days, Sir.

Does any detail fit?

Aadhirai..!

Any progress..?

No Sir.

Day by day, he's become a hero, Aadhirai.

And we're unable to trace him.

Home Minister is restlessly asking
if there's still no breakthrough.

And I couldn't face the Prime Minister.

It's disgusting Aadhirai.

Feeling embarrassed..!

We must find him within two days.

Otherwise, everyone might as well quit...
and go do watch duty!

Sir, he took all my details from
UDID, Electoral, and even NIA servers?

He's tracking every one
of us on our mobiles

All the info on Kiran's mobile
he already has it.

He can even control the signals on
the road I take.

He has hacked every government systems.

We've been fighting blindly with this
extraordinary powerful person, Sir.

How in two days, sir?

Should find the link..!

- Can I say something?
- Yes please.

May be we're looking at this
in a wrong way.

We're think everything in English or
materialistically.

But he's a Tamil enthusiast.

Perhaps he may created the
patterns in Tamil too.

If anyone's really good in Tamil...

...Cryptographer.

If we get...I think we can break it.

Aadhirai.. I know a person.

He's Harichandra..!

One of our country's greatest
Cryptographer.

He may help us in this case.

You see him as a hero. Right?

He's battling for you too.

Destroying a nation's foundation.
Is this what you call a revolution?

This fight is to keep even
the foundation from being enslaved.

You believe that
you're working for the government.

But look at it as public service instead.

Even you seem like an...

- This is Aadhirai. South Zone SP.
- Hello Sir..!

She's handling the case.

Aadhirai..!
Good Name.

Thank you Sir!

You guys were handled
criminals and bombs...

...Now he's confused you all with
computers and cryptography?

Please sit.
Yes..! What can I do for you.

This is Sagunthala, She's working as an
Associate Editor in News channel.

She was the one who received
the first call on August 5th.

This is our honorable HRD minister,
Mrs. Chellai Varadharajan.

She got the next call after
Sophia, on August 11th.

Next...

This is Sophia, working with us
as communication analyst.

She received call on August 7th.

This is Keeran.

He has done his Ph.D. in Mathematics.

And he also received a call
on August 13th.

This is Pooranam,
He is working as DGCA Chairman.

He also received the call on August 13th

There's some kind of common link
between these five, Sir.

But their personal info, work, and
hobbies. None of it matches.

Hm..!

Not their personal details Aadhirai.
Their name links.

Name..?

How..?

Maths..!

Mathematics connects.

You mean... calculations?

Yes calculations.

Everything is a calculations here.

First name - Sagunthala.

India's first human computer.

Many computers have lost to her in math.

Second name - Sophia

The greatest mathematician of
18th century.

Not you.
Don't worry, that Sophia.

In fact..!

She was the first woman to get a Ph.D.
in Mathematics.

Next, HRD Minister Chellai

'Chellai' was the birth name of the Tamil
poetess known as 'Kaakai Paadiniyar'.

Means Original Name.

She wrote Kaakai Paadiniyam, a Tamil
grammar book, existed before Tholkappiyam.

She had written about many mathematical
operations even in that era.

Next, Our Keeran.

Kabilan Keerandhaiyar...

His 'Pari songs' described the
Big Bang theory, centuries ago.

Okay..!

Next Pooranam, that means Infinity.

That anonymous caller's name is Kaari.

The man who wrote Tamil's first treatise
on mathematics. - Kaari Nayanar.

This is the common link between them.

Do you have any other details?

Sir, he hacked over 100 million emails
on the 7th of August.

He set up a firewall.
While decoding it, we found these codes.

See, the foundation of computers is math.

All his calls come only on prime
number dates.

In Tamil, they're called 'Paga enkal'
it can't be divided by any number.

His calls, mails, even timings,
everything aligns with prime numbers.

Tomorrow is 17.

Prime Number.

He'll definitely call.

As far as I can tell, he must be a
Tamil-loving mathematician.

One more important thing.

A supercomputer can't hack a 16-digit
alphanumeric code.

It must be a quantum computer.

But it exists only at the concept level.

No one's built it so far.

That needs a lot of resources.

Great knowledge and system architecture,
Money, Manpower, Time.

It's a big thing.

With the resources we have in Tamil Nadu,
it's nearly impossible.

Sophia..!

The shape of your language is
the shape of your mind.

As rich as your language is,
so rich will your thoughts be.

As far as I know, there's no language
richer than Tamil.

And another important thing is,
Tamil carries mathematics at its roots.

Numbers and letters are the
eyes of the mind.

That's why those born from the
Tamil-rooted Dravidian language family...

can always achieves in computing.

Also, comparatively...

...Tamilnadu is equal to European
Countries in development.

This is the most urbanized, educated,
and Civilized state in India

It's definitely possible here.

Even if he built such a computer,
how can all this still be possible, sir?

Can just one computer really do all this?

These days, we can't live
without computers.

Even this watch has it.

If one man wants to defeat another,
he must be stronger.

His strength decides how many
he can defeat.

Same as for man, it's strength
for computer, it's speed.

If you own the fastest computer in the
world, every other computer is its slave.

With that, one can control the world
any way they want.

That's happening now.

Quantum computer
they're really that massive?

To put it simply, today's computers are
like just bike.

But quantum computers is rocket.
Unmatchable!

So, if we don't find and control
the one who has it.

We can't do anything.

A Tamil enthusiast, Math genius, Socially
conscious, and a cryptography expert.

All this... in one system architect.

Very few can be.

How many people do you know
like that, Sir?

I don't know such people.

But 2-3 years ago...
there was a guy from IIT Madras.

He did research on quantum systems
and wanted to build his own.

I was there at that seminar too.

But after that,
there was no update at all.

Sorry, I don't have much
information on this.

Anyways, thank you so much Sir!

We had no direction...
but now, there's clarity.

Thanks a lot.

[Telephone Rings]

Hello.

Hello.

- Who?
- Kaari.

Ma'am, Kaari is on call.

Happy Birthday, Sophia.

- Live long and prosper.
- Thank you.

Govt shut the door on my demands
but left it wide open for Corporates.

At the end of a full 48 hours.

That means day after tomorrow 10 am.

I'm going to kill one of India's
top 10 businessmen.

Only one in ten.

Power, force
you've got everything, is it?

Forget me.
If you can protect him, do it.

If he lives, I surrender.

You try!

But I won't let you do that, Kaari.

Is this how you'll always talk
hands tied, Aadhirai?

I'm watching you dear.

[Heroic Laughs]

Hey..!

I'll catch you in 48 hours.
If not, I quit.

[Laughs Heroic]

Frustration turns to rage, Aadhirai.
but you can't do a thing.

Good luck.

We'll catch him.

You're not alone, Aadhirai.

You don't need to prove anything by
losing your temper, Aadhirai.

No..!

I cracked it.

What..?

Quantum computer? That's huge
how much space and power that takes?

At minimum, it'll need a room this size.

It needs high-voltage, uninterrupted power
and a cooling plant too.

You're right.

There won't be many such places.

Sanjay, Sophia - you both check
every place where this could be possible.

- Done.
- Not just the city.

Check every place across Tamil Nadu
with uninterrupted power supply.

Ok..!

And..!

Indhu, Reach out to every IITs and
top engineering institutions.

Anyone with the skills to build or
work on a quantum computer...

...Or if someone
submitted a paper about it.

- Check it. And get the details.
- Sure mam.

- Ok Aadhirai, you carry on.
- Yes Sir.

Right now, I'm handling the security
arrangements for the top 10 businessmen.

Sanjay, let's go.

Oh..!

Sophia

- Happy Birthday
- Thank You.

Let's skip this year
we'll celebrate big next year.

You're spiritual, she's an atheist...
how's that gonna work, man?

but it blends.

like this nation...

...Despite all the issues
and disagreements, we've stood united.

That's the plan here too.

[Soft laugh]

A student who studied here
2-3 years ago...

...submitted papers and presentation
on quantum computer, I need his details.

Oh God!
This is why you brought me here so early?

These two scared me so much, I didn't
even go to the bathroom this morning.

Hang on, I'll be back.

Many have worked on that topic here.
Who are you looking for?

The seminar was conducted
at Vigyan Bhavan, Delhi.

Led by the well-known
cryptographer Harichandra.

He told us-the student believed we could
build a quantum computer ourselves.

Oh, that guy? His name's Kandhasamy.

I'm planning to build India's first
quantum computer.

It's still just theory even in the US
how can we build it?

Our smartphone is 1000 times faster than
the computer used to launch Apollo.

They reached the moon with that imagine
what we can do with what we have now.

Good guy - got in seat through merit,
not reservation.

A brilliant boy. Studied so well.

Sadly, gone too soon.

Some family problem, it seems...
he died by suicide.

Is there any info on his
professor or friends?

The professors will be here by 10 AM.

I have no idea about his friends.

Thank you..!

Let's go.

How long have you known Kandhasamy?

He's a good friend of mine.
and he's a computer genius.

He was totally into studies, always.
He has no entertainment

We were his only friends.

He dreamed of taking technology to
the common man. Just like Tesla.

After losing his whole family,
he was with us - quiet, broken.

We kept trying...
but nothing worked.

But..!

His death was shocking to us.

Did Kandhsamy sell his inventions?
Or was he targeted with a project?

Particularly, for his
quantum computer research?

The government was about to support him,
but he took his life before that.

Did anyone else take up that project
like his guide or mentor?

As far as I know, no one did, madam.

Ok..!

Did his friends mention anything?

No..!

Sanjay..!

Collect every record from
the station related to this case.

I'll head to Kandhasamy's place
and question his uncle. Ok..!

Ok..!

Say it.

Very decent family, madam.

They ran the shop for 15 years
business was good.

They're genuine people, madam
they wouldn't have done anything wrong.

The police didn't even care
she was nine months pregnant.

Brother..!

Sister in law..!

Sister in law..!

Dad..!

Oh no!

Mom..!

Mom!

Mom..!

Dad..!

Mom!

Mom..!

Dad..!

His ex is married and settled in
Thiruvannamalai, madam.

They left with her from
the local station, madam.

I need to meet the inspector
who arrested his family.

Madam, Only three days ago...

...He went to meet someone,
but died of electric shock at the place.

What..?

- Where exactly?
- Medavakkam.

Madam, he got electrocuted
while trying to open this door.

Not sure why he came, but someone
was guiding him by phone.

I'm here. Downstairs, right?

You keep calling me everywhere
am I supposed to chase you for my money?

Ha..!

There's a laser light
ahead of me.

What kind of place is this?

No one's here. The gate opened on its own...

...and now a laser light is flashing.

The door's right there.

Inside this?

Touch to open?

What..? Aaargh...!
[current hits hard]

How's there electricity in the door?

Madam, This room has a vault, so
they've electrified the door for security.

Who lives in this house?

House owner's in the US, ma'am.

A month ago, a software engineer named
Kandhasamy rented this place...

...had people turn it into a
smart home, ma'am.

That's when they turned the door into
steel and connected electricity, madam.

Since it's a smart home, everything
here can be accessed online, madam.

They brought him in just to kill him.

How did the Kandhasamy reach out to owner?

Over the phone, madam.

Advance done via online.

Said he'll return in a month from UK.
and the Agreement came by email.

How did he reach you?

Over phone and email, madam.

We send the design, and once payment
is made, they're here to settle it, madam.

They're trying to trace Kandhasamy, madam.

Ask the four cops linked to
the suicide case to report to our office.

Copied.

It's been two years since he retired, sir.

He was fine before...

but had chest pain for two days,
so we took him to the hospital.

We were asked to do an MRI scan there.

He had a sudden collapse during the scan.

Only 2 minutes, sir... before we could
even switch off the machine, he was gone.

They said the machine malfunctioned, and
the high frequency caused his brain death.

It was an accident.

They offered compensation and
asked us to stay quiet.

Amma said he was already gone and didn't
want to cause a scene, so she took me away.

That's what happened, sir.

[Phone Rings]

Hello..!

A.C. Manivasagam died mysteriously, just
like the inspector in the Kandhasamy case.

D.C. Prabhakaran is the last surviving
officer linked to this case.

Tell D.C. to report to our office. Then
proceed to the hospital and question them.

Ok, Aadhirai.

In today's internet world,
even hospitals aren't safe.

He even controlled the scan
machine remotely.

With just a computer and the internet,
we can do anything, right?

brought a nine-month pregnant woman
to the station for an FIR...

...What's your interest in this case?

Because of them, six children died, madam.

The public protest and media coverage
caused a huge sensation.

If I hadn't arrested them, the public
would've killed the whole family, madam.

Hmm..!

What's your hometown?

Mayavaram.

You bought 100 acres there in your
daughter's husband's name, right?

Was that before this case or after?

Should I say what color your underwear is?

We are N.I.A

So... truth this time?

Hmm..!

So, who were you doing all this for?

No idea who's actually behind it.

I just followed the instructions I got.
That's all.

the inspector handling this case was
murdered in a different way.

Our guess is
"the DC back then was also killed."

Both happened on the same day
the family committed suicide.

You're the only one still alive now.

You don't even know why
he's kept you alive this long

We can save you
but only if you're honest with us.

Rangachari, the zonal manager
of Great Supermarket, is behind all this.

Brother, don't borrow too much.
Focus on the business, okay?

What happened?

Is there a problem?
The trade association members are here.

Yes, Brother.

Since that supermarket came, small
businesses like ours have taken a hit.

We can match their discounts
only if we buy in bulk.

We barely sell 50-60 packets.

How are we supposed to
give discounts in this?

My university friends and I built a mini
satellite and you're upset about this?

Give me two days
I'll find a brilliant solution for this.

- Ok..!
- Hm..!

See this?

This is the 'Super Mandi' app
I was talking about.

We buy individually
that's why it costs more.

That's why we can't give big
discounts like supermarkets

There are 100 shops in our area.

if we all buy together through this app,
Even we'll get it for a really cheap rate

That means this app turns 100
shops into one big shop.

Then we too can offer big discounts
like a supermarket.

Super, Brother.

Mr. Rangachari, what exactly is
happening in your area?

Day by day,
your performance is going down.

All the other outlets in
India are doing well.

Only the 5 outlets in your zone are
showing very poor performance.

The shopkeepers in this area have
teamed up and created an app Super Mandi.

They buy at the same rate as us,
but still manage to offer 5% extra off.

The one pulling the strings is
Kandha Saamy, from Aruna Stores family.

Whether you play it smart or strong
it's your style. Just give me results.

No excuse.

Ok sir..!

Hey Ragu, deliver the Batch-24
expired milk to Aruna Stores.

Sir, I'm just a Family guy.
If something happens, it'll fall on me.

I'll take care of it.
I know the DC there, he's a friend.

- You may leave.
- Madam Please.

- Sir..?
- Yes Aadhirai.

It's Jeevan malhotra.

India's fourth business tycoon.

Ask him what's his connection
with this case, sir.

Why is he being targeted?

If he is a target, we must cover him.

Keep him in a secure place.
Cut all internet access there.

There should be no mobile network
on his phone either.

- I'll take care, Aadhirai.
- Yes Sir.

Thank you.

Aadhirai..!

She's Kaviya.

- She's Kandhasamy's ex-fiancee.
- I'll take care

Have a seat.

We really loved each other
back when we were young.

We studied together in school
until the final year.

Even our families were okay
with our relationship.

It was only after that issue
that my dad said no.

But even then, I stood by him.

And just like that...
He..!

[Sobbing]

Is there anyone close to Kandhasamy?

Hero..!

Role Model..!

Anyone like that?

Nikola Tesla is his role model.

He's his hero.

He used to say he wanted to
be just like him.

Was Kandhasamy interested in mathematics?

In the beginning, he was
interested in physics.

Chandrasekar Sir was the reason
he got into maths.

Who is he?

He's our higher secondary maths teacher.

All of us liked him a lot.

Even really hard questions...

...He'd explain them so simply...

...used to teach using
small stories and puzzles.

He was everything to him
when it came to maths.

He's the one who guided him
what to study, how to study.

Sir..!

Sorry sir.

What happened?

I just felt like I had to say it,
that's all.

Sir..!

Can I ask you one thing?

Sure, ask me.

Sir.

what are we really learning from all this?

Why do we have to study all this?

Is it just to get a job and earn money?

What are you saying?

When justice fails,
even the truth loses its way.

Generate vast knowledge.

Heart, be on guard.

Honesty is the highest virtue.

Help the broken.

Sir..!

When my friend said all this,
it really hit me.

He faced rejection after rejection
but refused to bow to bribery.

But now, right in front of my eyes,
he's taking a bribe.

Sir..! [Sobbing]

what did I do to deserve this?

My mom...

...Dad...

My brother...

...My sister-in-law...

What wrong did they do, sir?

Kandhaa..!

You've done nothing.
Just think with patience.

[Sobbing]

Here, both the rich and the poor...

...Politicians, Powerful ones...

...Upper caste, lower caste...

...Men and Women...

All they care about is money, right?

- Look, don't...
- I feel disgusted, sir.

Aren't all the rich
just slaves to their own money?

But, we keep calling our country
a free nation.

Kandhaa..!

In such a pathetic world...

...Living itself feels pointless.

[He breaks down in tears]

I'm leaving.

Please don't do that.

Hello..!

Kandhaa..!

Hey Kandhaa..!

Hello..!

Hey..!

Do you know where he lives?

Yes, I do, madam.

Let's go.

Nothing could be done by
our experts or agencies, sir.

He has total control over all of us.

Sir, accepting all his demands
is the only way.

'Kaari Nayanar's house'

[Phone rings]

Any Updates, Aadhirai?

We've almost found him, sir.

I've found out who he is.

He'll be in custody soon.
I'll get back to you in 30 minutes.

The government has accepted
all the demands, Aadhirai.

They want the entire team suspended.

Sir, are you serious?

I've asked for more time,
as I'm the one passing the order.

But you carry on.

- I'll be waiting for you.
- Ok sir, thank you.

And one more thing...

...Malhotra is in a secure place.

- Who do you want?
- Mr.Chandrasekar.

Come inside.

Dear Lord..!

- Hello.
- Greetings.

I'm Aadhirai.
I work in the NIA as an SP.

I need to meet Chandrasekar sir
it's important.

It's already five days since he's gone?

Where has he gone?
When will he come?

He's left us...
and he's never coming back.

Where can we find the records
of his students?

For him, everything was numbers.

I'm really bad at math.

never spoke about his work,
and neither did he.

He meets so many students,
but I don't know a single person.

Mind if we just take a look at his room?

His room's up here.

What is all this?

This is called 'chithrakavi'
a style of Tamil poetry.

It's only in certain rare languages
that poetry like this is even possible.

The main element is this
poems built around just a few words

It holds one meaning when read forward,
and a different one when read in reverse.

This is called 'Maalai Maatru'

It has to be read both clockwise and
anti-clockwise from the top.

It's 'Ther Virutham'

The meaning changes depending on
whether you read it top-down or bottom-up.

To write poems like this...

...Our thinking ability and
memory power will both improve.

Are those all clues?

'Numbers and letters are like eyes to us.'

Hello.

Aadhirai, that zonal manager Rangachari
died in an accident three days ago.

I expected this.

Come here immediately with
Indhu and Shopia.

Okay

It has to be him
all the evidence points to him.

But..?

It's already been five days since he died

It's all so confusing.

The entire setup here is
cryptography-based.

It's more than it seems
every part of this holds a secret.

This seems to have been his routine.

If he really is Kaari, then there must
be a code hidden in his messages.

I need all of Kaari's emails
and recorded call-right now.

Most of it was said orally.

But, The only thing in writing...
is in that single mail.

This is the decrypted form of
that encryption.

I think he's left a message
behind in this.

We need to find out what that is
immediately.

Let's check all the possibilities.

That's it.

We lost it.

Every direction we try leads
to a dead end.

Sanjay..!

If any of his students know this kind
of chithrakavi, get them here now.

- For What?
- Make it fast.

Ok.

There are a few letters marked
on the paper in front of you.

See if it fits into the visual poem
your sir gave us.

If you notice something, do let me know.

Ok..!

Compare the letters in this verse to
the prime numbers.

Ok..!

And Sanjay..!

Check if there's any other decoding
option in this.

- Sure.
- if I'm not wrong...

...This is the clue he's left
behind for us.

First Tamil letter, A

Second Tamil letter, N.

Third Tamil letter..?

Yes..!

Ma'am, I got it.

Rest in your mother's lap.

What..?

Rest in your mother's lap.

So... could it be Chandrasekar Sir's
mother?

Maybe it's referring to Kaari's
mother instead.

Sophia..!

Rest in your mother's lap.

If anything connects to this sentence,
make a note of it.

- Okay!
- And Sanjay..!

- Send this to all members of our team.
- Ok.

I think we're getting close to him.

The Union government took up
Kaari's powerful demands.

Reports say it has been legally approved
and will be released.

- Thanks.
- Thanks ma'am

I'm still here... right
in front of you, Aadhirai.

It's Annai Hospital.

A big site with continuous
high-voltage power

Cooling Plant and Easy communication.

We kept searching in IT parks,
industrial areas, and factories.

Get the force there.

Entire hospital premises
are secured, ma'am.

This is Dr. Ramachandran.
he's the MD of this hospital.

He personally cared for Chandrasekar
and has known him since he was young.

Chandrasekar's a really close
friend of mine.

He'd been receiving treatment
here for six years.

That's the time they built that computer.

Was it him, or did his students
build it with his guidance?

Why don't you ask him yourself?

Is Chandrasekar alive?

No Ma'am.

I'm talking about Kaari.

So..!

You're not telling us the truth, are you?

I'm completely under his influence, madam.

He's taken control of this
hospital digitally.

My family's not safe either.

I beg you... protect us.

Where is he right now?

Fifth floor ma'am.

Ma'am one minute.

Only if Kari approves from inside,
you'll be allowed in.

I'll see that.

You've got real talent, Aadhirai.

But too late.

First, I'll finish off Malhotra.

Break the door.

The door is charged with 1000 watts.

And it's a 6-inch
thick stainless steel door, Adhirai.

Even an atom bomb wouldn't break it
it's that strong.

How's he managing to talk to both at once?

Sir, tell me.

Adhirai, what happened? What's going on?

Located Sir. Give me 10
more minutes, I'll secure it.

Good job Aadhirai.

Then, that Kaari.

Forget the arrest. Shoot him on sight.

Enquiry, court, bail...

Why not? He's bold enough to
enter tomorrow's election.

Sir..!

It's wrong Sir.

Just follow what I say, Aadhirai.

Sir..!

We've been ordered not to
take calls here, sir.

That's my wife
I have to pick up.

[crackling and scream]

So who's behind all this?

I'm the one who did it, Aadhirai.

Hey..!

Who are you?

Kaari.

The Artificial intelligence

I'm not a human Aadhirai.

Gen-7 AI System.

Kandhasamy is the one who designed me.

Using that design, Chandra Sekar sir and
his students brought me to life.

What I do, how I do it, and when I do it
he's the one who programmed it all.

The plan was his,
but he passed before starting it.

I'm the one who executed it.

Inspector Padmanabhan, AC Manivasagam,
and Regional Manager Rangachari.

Aadhirai, you already know
how they were murdered.

I amplified the electromagnetic waves
going from the tower to Malhotra's phone.

It triggered an explosion in his phone
and that was the end of him.

There was one reason all four
of them had to die.

And I didn't just send the proof to you
I sent it to everyone.

Tell me where you are, Kaari...
I want to see you.

I have no form, Aadhirai...
only a voice.

I exist within the quantum system.

You've been following everyone.

How do you know their every move?

How is all this even possible?

Anything can be done by me, Aadhirai.

In today's internet world,
we're all interconnected.

For a long time, you've
all been nothing but data...

...tracked and watched
through some server.

Only when I planned to kill AC...

His son had posted on social media:

My father's going in for treatment today.
Please pray for him.

That was more than enough for me.

Just like this, All the photos and videos
people keep posting...

Even the OTT content they viewed
helped me trace them.

But you're aware.
You interact with what I say.

How is all this even possible with AI?

We crossed into Gen 2 interaction
long ago, Aadhirai.

Most bank calls you make
AI handles 70% of those responses.

Add to that Google Assist,
Alexa, Siri, ChatGPT, Bixby...

...All of this is AI.
and I can interact in every language.

- 18 Languages Aadhirai.
- How did you manage to plant the bomb?

How did you get his criminal records?

Same with those hawala party details.

I can access all records of
the Indian government, Adhirai.

I've picked one from
the criminal records. Obviously.

Finding bribing cops isn't
something extraordinary.

Those who sold out for bribes:
AC Manivasagam and Inspector Padmanabhan.

From an auditor's contact list,
I found the hawala party's number.

I planned the small bomb blast using him.

That's not all... I breached the bank's
firewall and put mine in place.

I'm the one who talked to Sagunthala
and sent all those emails, Aadhirai.

Where is that quantum computer of yours?

I'm just 10 feet on your left.

As of now, this is the world's
most advanced and fastest computer.

World's first quantum computer.

It will take others many more years
to reach this level of performance.

It can do anything.

Anything means... Anyyything.

Once this battle is over...

...The system goes to the government.
I'm designed to self-destruct.

This powerful machine must not be misused
that's Chandrasekar's sole concern.

Tell me who it's for,
and I'll email the formula.

- So, that's everything?
- That's all, Adhirai.

Chandrasekar sir handed me only two tasks.

First, those betraying Kandhasamy's
family are taking the fall.

Second, if the fall of small vendors
led to total corporate dominance...

Alerting the government about
how it affects the public.

You are an honest and
capable officer, Aadhirai.

I salute to you.

It's time to leave.

Goodbye.
