'The White Elephant'
Story of Paradise

2
00:02:02,091 --> 00:02:03,605
The officers are coming.

3
00:02:22,990 --> 00:02:25,410
What happened, Murugan?
- The officers are coming. Run!

4
00:02:25,435 --> 00:02:26,355
Oh, no!

5
00:02:31,225 --> 00:02:32,185
Hello, sir.

6
00:02:33,975 --> 00:02:36,275
The officers are coming!

7
00:02:39,225 --> 00:02:41,225
Manjula! Stop rattling the vessels.

8
00:02:41,331 --> 00:02:43,081
The officers are coming.
Don't make a sound.

9
00:02:43,299 --> 00:02:45,370
I've locked the front door.
Let's wait till they leave.

10
00:02:45,395 --> 00:02:47,185
Why are you hiding, Dad?

11
00:02:47,298 --> 00:02:50,168
Those educated folks
squeezing the have-nots.

12
00:02:50,411 --> 00:02:52,831
Uneducated folks like me
don't stand a chance.

13
00:02:53,605 --> 00:02:56,025
We will pay them back
once the crops start to grow.

14
00:02:56,685 --> 00:02:58,145
Leave for school, girl.

15
00:02:59,404 --> 00:03:00,284
No.

16
00:03:00,605 --> 00:03:02,355
What if they started grilling the child?

17
00:03:21,025 --> 00:03:25,450
That's Marudhu's house, sir.
Door number 43/3.

18
00:03:25,475 --> 00:03:28,330
Around 50,000 due including interest.

19
00:03:28,355 --> 00:03:30,185
Who's the lady?
- Marudhu's wife.

20
00:03:30,209 --> 00:03:32,160
Lady, is this Marudhu's house?

21
00:03:32,185 --> 00:03:32,950
Yes!

22
00:03:32,975 --> 00:03:34,160
Is he home?

23
00:03:34,185 --> 00:03:37,435
I don't know. He needn't keep me
posted on his whereabouts.

24
00:03:37,435 --> 00:03:39,815
You say that every time!

25
00:03:39,935 --> 00:03:42,410
Quit trying to cheat us!

26
00:03:42,435 --> 00:03:44,290
Or we will have to take
criminal action.

27
00:03:44,315 --> 00:03:47,830
Let's go.
- This is how they keep stalling!

28
00:03:47,855 --> 00:03:49,937
Sir, sir, sir...

29
00:03:50,565 --> 00:03:52,040
What is it, Senthil?

30
00:03:52,065 --> 00:03:53,475
Look, there's a pair of slippers.

31
00:03:53,775 --> 00:03:56,040
I told you he's not home.
Where are you going?

32
00:03:56,065 --> 00:03:57,775
Don't cause trouble
when my husband is not here.

33
00:03:57,775 --> 00:03:59,660
We can't walk away
when you make excuses.

34
00:03:59,685 --> 00:04:01,200
Let him take a look.

35
00:04:01,225 --> 00:04:02,435
Where is Marudhu?

36
00:04:02,855 --> 00:04:04,895
I told you, he's not home.

37
00:04:04,935 --> 00:04:06,105
Won't you answer me?

38
00:04:06,185 --> 00:04:08,120
My brother-in-law is not
under the basket.

39
00:04:08,145 --> 00:04:11,870
We're picking twigs for a living,
stop harassing us by asking for repayment!

40
00:04:11,895 --> 00:04:13,645
There's no one under it!

41
00:04:13,670 --> 00:04:15,525
Why would you kick the hen?

42
00:04:15,525 --> 00:04:16,815
But he's not under the basket.

43
00:04:16,840 --> 00:04:19,250
I, too, said he's not under the basket.

44
00:04:19,275 --> 00:04:21,645
But his slippers are there.
- When did I deny that?

45
00:04:21,685 --> 00:04:23,160
Why are you causing trouble?

46
00:04:23,185 --> 00:04:25,476
She says he's not home.

47
00:04:25,756 --> 00:04:26,886
Why don't you leave?

48
00:04:26,911 --> 00:04:28,870
There's no rain
and we got no water from Cauvery.

49
00:04:28,895 --> 00:04:30,775
How do you expect us to
pay back the loan?

50
00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:31,645
Let's go.

51
00:04:32,894 --> 00:04:34,644
Valli, have they gone?

52
00:04:34,815 --> 00:04:36,500
Yes, they have.

53
00:04:36,525 --> 00:04:38,620
I forgot, but how could you
be so stupid?

54
00:04:38,700 --> 00:04:40,330
Why didn't you hide the slippers?

55
00:04:40,401 --> 00:04:42,820
I never saw it.
Or I would have hid it.

56
00:04:43,217 --> 00:04:45,830
Thank God I didn't hide under the basket.

57
00:04:45,855 --> 00:04:47,500
Be careful.

58
00:04:48,815 --> 00:04:52,355
If I'd hid there,
your brother would have got me caught.

59
00:04:52,525 --> 00:04:56,555
They pretended to leave, saw the slippers
and came right into the house.

60
00:04:56,927 --> 00:04:58,137
I was terrified!

61
00:04:58,225 --> 00:05:00,145
Why can't you just run
out of the village, like others?

62
00:05:00,185 --> 00:05:02,700
I would have if I could have.
- Aren't you a man?

63
00:05:02,725 --> 00:05:06,000
You dare not disrespect me!
- Don't hit my sister.

64
00:05:06,025 --> 00:05:08,525
Let go of my sister.
- Out of my way, boy.

65
00:05:08,656 --> 00:05:11,815
The officers are hovering around here.

66
00:05:11,855 --> 00:05:13,775
Don't keep shouting
and draw them back in.

67
00:05:13,775 --> 00:05:15,315
Don't hurt my sister...
- Don't shout!

68
00:05:18,605 --> 00:05:22,508
Govindan, our Village Post Office
receives two letters every month.

69
00:05:22,815 --> 00:05:26,725
And four money orders worth 25 bucks
leftover from other expenses.

70
00:05:27,120 --> 00:05:28,660
There are no other posts.

71
00:05:28,759 --> 00:05:30,660
Postman, who is this officer?

72
00:05:30,685 --> 00:05:32,645
He's an important officer.
Go away!

73
00:05:33,065 --> 00:05:34,475
He's a lad from the village.

74
00:05:34,895 --> 00:05:39,065
The villagers don't even accept
the bank notice for their loans.

75
00:05:39,395 --> 00:05:43,525
So our department has decided
that this VPO will be shut.

76
00:05:43,685 --> 00:05:46,565
I only have one year
and six months left in my service.

77
00:05:46,565 --> 00:05:49,105
Postman, when will they open
the flour shop?

78
00:05:49,130 --> 00:05:51,950
Can't you see I'm talking to the officer?
- Why not just tell me?

79
00:05:51,975 --> 00:05:55,275
Come back later. - How can I
keep coming and going?

80
00:05:55,565 --> 00:05:58,105
So you will finish your service
as an ED till the very end?

81
00:05:58,395 --> 00:06:00,185
Hello, sir.
- Hello!

82
00:06:01,954 --> 00:06:06,290
I bet you didn't find a single soul
in the village. Everyone ran away?

83
00:06:06,315 --> 00:06:09,645
I have a feeling this guy
must have tipped them off.

84
00:06:09,645 --> 00:06:12,250
What's the update on the
7th pay commission?

85
00:06:12,275 --> 00:06:13,830
We've asked for the arrears
from January.

86
00:06:13,855 --> 00:06:17,112
If we are not paid, all the unions
will get together and strike. - Good!

87
00:06:17,315 --> 00:06:18,685
Goodbye!
- Yes.

88
00:06:21,870 --> 00:06:23,450
What's that look?
- Nothing, sir.

89
00:06:23,475 --> 00:06:24,935
You will get a salary hike, too.

90
00:06:31,887 --> 00:06:36,517
Uncle Natesan said you were very cheerful
before the wedding.

91
00:06:37,394 --> 00:06:41,034
You have started suffering
only after the children and I came?

92
00:06:45,435 --> 00:06:47,225
Do days and nights stand still?

93
00:06:47,435 --> 00:06:48,895
They run away when it's time.

94
00:06:49,775 --> 00:06:52,450
Similarly, our troubles will run away too.

95
00:06:52,475 --> 00:06:54,775
The bank officers came
and yelled today, too.

96
00:06:54,799 --> 00:06:56,799
Tomorrow we will meet textile shop owner

97
00:06:57,150 --> 00:07:01,766
He will show us the way for bank loan
You don't get disturbed ok?

98
00:07:02,435 --> 00:07:04,185
I have faith in your honesty,

99
00:07:04,315 --> 00:07:06,476
but not your income.

100
00:07:08,725 --> 00:07:11,975
I will seem like the good guy
while lending to someone with poor income.

101
00:07:11,975 --> 00:07:14,160
But I will become the bad guy
when I ask for it back.

102
00:07:14,185 --> 00:07:16,290
You are unable to pay back
the bank loan.

103
00:07:16,315 --> 00:07:18,525
How will you pay back
the loan you're asking of me?

104
00:07:19,525 --> 00:07:21,870
We can't draw a sale agreement
against the land...

105
00:07:21,895 --> 00:07:23,895
as your property documents
are with the bank.

106
00:07:24,355 --> 00:07:25,475
What can I do?

107
00:07:26,891 --> 00:07:27,775
Tell me.

108
00:07:30,315 --> 00:07:31,565
There is one option.

109
00:07:32,435 --> 00:07:33,565
My son-in-law...

110
00:07:33,725 --> 00:07:34,605
You called me?

111
00:07:35,525 --> 00:07:39,105
he's looking for a property
to set up his factory.

112
00:07:39,385 --> 00:07:41,523
He hasn't had any luck.
So let's do this...

113
00:07:42,192 --> 00:07:45,710
I will pay off your loan at the bank
and recover your documents.

114
00:07:47,065 --> 00:07:52,828
Then I will pay you the amount
that's the going price for the land.

115
00:07:55,395 --> 00:07:56,895
Just give your land to me.

116
00:07:57,414 --> 00:07:58,766
You may leave.
- Okay.

117
00:07:59,395 --> 00:08:00,605
What do you think?

118
00:08:02,225 --> 00:08:03,185
What?

119
00:08:08,490 --> 00:08:09,410
Valli, let's go.

120
00:08:09,935 --> 00:08:12,620
A factory in a fertile soil?

121
00:08:12,645 --> 00:08:14,315
We shouldn't have come to this guy.

122
00:08:14,880 --> 00:08:17,660
Women always get angry
for the right reasons.

123
00:08:17,685 --> 00:08:22,398
Who would not be angry when
fertile land is sold to wretched people?

124
00:08:22,709 --> 00:08:24,459
Take your time
and convince them.

125
00:08:25,725 --> 00:08:26,605
Okay, sir.

126
00:08:28,275 --> 00:08:31,211
You don't want the bank
seizing your property.

127
00:08:31,571 --> 00:08:33,191
No, this is not an answer.

128
00:08:33,225 --> 00:08:35,540
I don't want excuses,
I want results.

129
00:08:35,565 --> 00:08:41,619
You have an outstanding amount of over
50 lakhs in loans to farmers.

130
00:08:41,644 --> 00:08:45,516
There is over 16 lakhs
in just Chaturvedi Mangalam village.

131
00:08:45,895 --> 00:08:50,370
The collection team headed by you
came back empty handed.

132
00:08:50,395 --> 00:08:52,410
They escape somehow, sir!

133
00:08:52,435 --> 00:08:53,645
Is that your answer?

134
00:08:53,685 --> 00:08:56,547
This is like a robber getting caught
by farting out loud.

135
00:08:57,225 --> 00:08:59,950
Okay, I shall announce a new scheme.

136
00:08:59,975 --> 00:09:04,456
Whoever among you collects the loan
from the farmers,

137
00:09:04,481 --> 00:09:07,481
will get a 5% incentive
from the collection amount.

138
00:09:07,605 --> 00:09:09,685
And to build a house or anything else,

139
00:09:09,998 --> 00:09:13,023
a ten lakh interest free loan in our bank.

140
00:09:13,395 --> 00:09:14,935
Anybody interested to do that?

141
00:09:16,725 --> 00:09:18,790
Two tickets to Chaturvedi Mangalam.

142
00:09:18,815 --> 00:09:20,867
Who are you visiting there?

143
00:09:21,033 --> 00:09:24,297
We have come from Vilachukulam
to lay fence for the goats.

144
00:09:24,725 --> 00:09:27,000
There is no rainwater in the village.

145
00:09:27,025 --> 00:09:28,435
The river is parched.

146
00:09:28,475 --> 00:09:32,008
The scorching heat is vaporising the piss
before it falls on the ground.

147
00:09:32,290 --> 00:09:36,870
We're close to giving up on farming,
who would use your goat dung?

148
00:09:36,895 --> 00:09:37,935
Exactly.

149
00:09:39,305 --> 00:09:41,660
I see pants under the trader's veshti.

150
00:09:41,685 --> 00:09:42,815
Really?

151
00:09:46,895 --> 00:09:48,410
I'm not used to wearing veshtis.

152
00:09:48,435 --> 00:09:51,910
I wondered why someone would wear pants
under veshtis when he got on.

153
00:09:51,935 --> 00:09:53,500
Who are you people?

154
00:09:53,525 --> 00:09:56,475
You're the authorities sent to check
if we're eating cows?

155
00:09:56,500 --> 00:09:58,830
No, we're bank officers.

156
00:09:58,855 --> 00:10:00,620
Oh, no!
- Don't you recognise us?

157
00:10:00,645 --> 00:10:03,910
We have come in disguise
to collect the repayment. - Driver, stop!

158
00:10:03,935 --> 00:10:06,391
Stop the bus!
- Let's go.

159
00:10:06,670 --> 00:10:10,344
We went to the merchant to pay off
these people, but he wants our land!

160
00:10:10,369 --> 00:10:13,266
And these people are putting on a disguise
to come after us.

161
00:10:13,727 --> 00:10:16,025
My master plan went for a toss!

162
00:10:16,050 --> 00:10:17,250
Scoot over.

163
00:10:17,275 --> 00:10:19,540
Officer, please get down.
- No, I won't.

164
00:10:19,565 --> 00:10:21,830
I'm pleading you with folded hands.
Please get down.

165
00:10:21,855 --> 00:10:24,370
We paid for the tickets.
Why should we get down?

166
00:10:24,395 --> 00:10:27,620
You did pay for your ticket.
I can drop you at that village too.

167
00:10:27,645 --> 00:10:30,185
But I won't be able to go
on the next trip. - Why not?

168
00:10:30,435 --> 00:10:31,565
Because...

169
00:10:36,475 --> 00:10:39,040
Will you pay for the damages to my bus?

170
00:10:39,065 --> 00:10:41,391
You're fired.
Get out of here.

171
00:10:41,775 --> 00:10:43,830
You don't worry.

172
00:10:43,855 --> 00:10:47,330
I predicted something of this sort,
so I had our office car tail the bus.

173
00:10:47,355 --> 00:10:49,797
Wasn't that smart?
- You're my assistant, alright!

174
00:10:50,080 --> 00:10:51,040
Thank you, officer.

175
00:10:51,065 --> 00:10:54,910
I don't need your thanks.
You should make these steps shorter.

176
00:10:54,935 --> 00:10:56,185
Oh, sure.

177
00:10:56,210 --> 00:10:58,420
Postman, heard they are
shutting this post office?

178
00:10:58,445 --> 00:11:00,905
I'm starting a canned water business.
Care to join me?

179
00:11:02,275 --> 00:11:05,250
You're a wretched man
who sells water for money.

180
00:11:05,275 --> 00:11:07,820
Postman, where did the villagers
run off to?

181
00:11:08,205 --> 00:11:09,075
Hold on.

182
00:11:13,677 --> 00:11:15,557
Will you give me five bucks?
I'll tell you.

183
00:11:15,725 --> 00:11:16,895
Bad fellow.

184
00:11:17,201 --> 00:11:18,371
Give it to him.

185
00:11:23,225 --> 00:11:25,145
I only have ten rupee note.

186
00:11:25,516 --> 00:11:26,676
I'll take the ten.

187
00:11:26,895 --> 00:11:29,336
Is this Cauvery?

188
00:11:29,645 --> 00:11:31,580
They driven down
in their cars.

189
00:11:31,605 --> 00:11:32,525
Hide!

190
00:11:32,565 --> 00:11:34,645
Fine, but they won't come here.

191
00:11:34,669 --> 00:11:36,621
You just relax...

192
00:11:36,645 --> 00:11:39,750
Marudhu said you met the textile merchant
about the money...

193
00:11:39,775 --> 00:11:41,820
That guy is trying to snatch my land!

194
00:11:42,185 --> 00:11:45,475
Every time we have to run
with wife and children...

195
00:11:45,645 --> 00:11:47,605
I feel like hanging myself.

196
00:11:48,200 --> 00:11:51,330
Those bank officers smooth talked us
into borrowing money and trapped us!

197
00:11:51,355 --> 00:11:55,275
When it rains, we can easily
pay off the loans.

198
00:11:55,442 --> 00:11:57,120
Don't go selling your farmlands.

199
00:11:57,145 --> 00:11:58,855
They will construct buildings there.

200
00:11:59,395 --> 00:12:01,025
The fertile soil will never forgive us.

201
00:12:01,145 --> 00:12:03,275
As tillers of the land,
we must not commit that sin.

202
00:12:03,435 --> 00:12:05,484
What's that noise?
- Take a look?

203
00:12:09,695 --> 00:12:11,620
The tyre is just rotating on on spot!

204
00:12:11,645 --> 00:12:14,414
What's happened?
- Looks like the tyre is stuck.

205
00:12:14,670 --> 00:12:16,000
They're stuck?

206
00:12:16,025 --> 00:12:16,895
Yes.

207
00:12:18,830 --> 00:12:19,910
Now we must rescue them.

208
00:12:19,935 --> 00:12:22,867
Outsourcing collection to an agency...

209
00:12:22,922 --> 00:12:24,475
is what private banks do.

210
00:12:24,595 --> 00:12:26,595
They indulge in all kinds of violence.

211
00:12:26,773 --> 00:12:29,580
If there's a problem,
they'll just lock up the banks and leave.

212
00:12:29,605 --> 00:12:33,870
But our banks function with the
small tax amounts...

213
00:12:33,895 --> 00:12:36,700
paid by the people,
even without their knowledge.

214
00:12:36,725 --> 00:12:39,160
It's wrong to threaten them
to recover the loan.

215
00:12:39,185 --> 00:12:41,950
Just hit them where it hurts,
by attacking their society values.

216
00:12:41,975 --> 00:12:45,141
They will pay up
to protect their pride and self respect.

217
00:12:45,605 --> 00:12:46,500
In this region,

218
00:12:46,525 --> 00:12:49,080
3 crores 13 lakhs 37 thousand...

219
00:12:49,105 --> 00:12:52,094
16 rupees and 50 paise
in outstanding amount.

220
00:12:53,101 --> 00:12:54,750
Mr. Prabanjam...
- Yes, ma'am?

221
00:12:54,775 --> 00:12:59,000
There's 35 lakhs in loan to farmers
pending in your branch.

222
00:12:59,025 --> 00:13:02,500
You need to collect at least
70% of it by the year end.

223
00:13:02,525 --> 00:13:04,120
Madam, in the 35 lakhs,

224
00:13:04,145 --> 00:13:07,080
Pinnamangalam Ponnusami,
Councillor Rajamanickam,

225
00:13:07,105 --> 00:13:08,605
and ex-MLA Sivakadaksham

226
00:13:08,605 --> 00:13:11,790
have a loan overdue
of about 22 lakhs.

227
00:13:11,815 --> 00:13:15,000
We are sending legal notice to them
every month, but no response.

228
00:13:15,025 --> 00:13:17,414
If we recover that,
we can cover 60%.

229
00:13:17,740 --> 00:13:18,870
That's not possible.

230
00:13:19,395 --> 00:13:23,781
If we send our staff to
politically affluent people,

231
00:13:23,806 --> 00:13:25,806
we will receive calls from
more affluent people.

232
00:13:26,475 --> 00:13:30,500
In the hope that when they come to power,
they will give a loan waiver,

233
00:13:30,525 --> 00:13:33,398
they won't pay a single rupee
till the next election.

234
00:13:33,935 --> 00:13:38,414
So we must target the agriculture loans
to small farmers.

235
00:13:38,855 --> 00:13:41,660
Supporting them will not help
our year-end report in any way.

236
00:13:41,685 --> 00:13:48,105
So you must collect at least 60 - 70% of
the loan immediately, as soon as possible.

237
00:13:48,339 --> 00:13:50,540
Okay?
- Okay, I'll do my best, ma'am.

238
00:13:50,565 --> 00:13:52,105
Good. Carry on.

239
00:13:54,009 --> 00:13:55,790
Aravind, any progress?

240
00:13:55,815 --> 00:13:57,725
The process is going on, ma'am.

241
00:13:58,026 --> 00:13:59,526
How many children do you have?

242
00:14:01,275 --> 00:14:02,870
Is that the process that's going on?

243
00:14:02,895 --> 00:14:05,250
Hope you manage to perform better
on that front.

244
00:14:05,275 --> 00:14:06,525
This applies to every one of you.

245
00:14:06,565 --> 00:14:10,120
If you fail to collect as per my target,
don't work in this region.

246
00:14:10,145 --> 00:14:11,935
Apply for a transfer
and get out of my sight.

247
00:14:11,960 --> 00:14:14,540
If you just want to sit and
warm your chairs,

248
00:14:14,565 --> 00:14:17,315
the next meeting,
I will have to cuss at you.

249
00:14:25,435 --> 00:14:26,914
Sir, there they are!

250
00:14:41,805 --> 00:14:44,250
Are you running to hide?

251
00:14:44,275 --> 00:14:46,395
You think we'll let you go
if you climb to the tree top?

252
00:14:46,420 --> 00:14:49,950
We loaned you the money.
We know how to recover it too.

253
00:14:49,975 --> 00:14:51,473
This is a government bank.

254
00:14:51,498 --> 00:14:53,750
That loan you got is government's money.

255
00:14:53,775 --> 00:14:56,040
Sir, we never said we won't pay back.

256
00:14:56,065 --> 00:14:57,645
We are unable to pay now.

257
00:14:58,025 --> 00:15:01,476
Can't you see, even the palm trees
stand headless because of the draught.

258
00:15:01,613 --> 00:15:03,443
Isn't it also our government?

259
00:15:03,605 --> 00:15:05,790
That's before the election.

260
00:15:05,815 --> 00:15:08,580
Now it's your turn
to listen to the government.

261
00:15:08,605 --> 00:15:10,540
We gave you two months
to pay back the loan.

262
00:15:10,565 --> 00:15:14,120
We will post an ad on the newspapers
that you failed to pay up.

263
00:15:14,145 --> 00:15:16,370
And if you still don't pay up,

264
00:15:16,395 --> 00:15:19,250
we will blow up your photos like this,

265
00:15:19,275 --> 00:15:23,820
put up the notice in public places
and humiliate you.

266
00:15:23,935 --> 00:15:25,700
And if you still don't pay up,

267
00:15:25,725 --> 00:15:27,910
whatever collateral you placed in the bank,

268
00:15:27,935 --> 00:15:29,790
your land and your house,

269
00:15:29,815 --> 00:15:32,025
with the help of a court order,

270
00:15:32,145 --> 00:15:36,290
will be seized to cover the loan
and your interest amount.

271
00:15:36,315 --> 00:15:37,145
Sir...

272
00:15:37,386 --> 00:15:40,109
Even if you return after two months,
I won't be able to pay up.

273
00:15:40,355 --> 00:15:41,525
I don't have the money.

274
00:15:42,025 --> 00:15:44,065
There has been no crop yield
in the drought.

275
00:15:44,105 --> 00:15:46,105
There's been no rainwater
in 4 - 5 years.

276
00:15:46,466 --> 00:15:48,844
Our day-to-day has been a struggle.

277
00:15:49,082 --> 00:15:52,250
If you threaten to seize,
we will not stay quiet.

278
00:15:52,275 --> 00:15:53,500
What can you do, man?

279
00:15:53,525 --> 00:15:56,065
You can't do anything.
You can't even repay the loan.

280
00:15:56,105 --> 00:15:58,225
Why are you speaking so
disrespectfully, sir?

281
00:15:58,258 --> 00:16:00,355
You're just a mongrel
who can't even repay the loan.

282
00:16:00,355 --> 00:16:02,000
And yet you have so much pride?

283
00:16:02,025 --> 00:16:05,200
Please don't insult us
just because we borrowed money.

284
00:16:05,225 --> 00:16:09,164
Do you think we hide the money
and run away from you?

285
00:16:09,370 --> 00:16:10,830
Look around our village.

286
00:16:10,855 --> 00:16:12,145
It's parched!

287
00:16:12,224 --> 00:16:14,700
Our children are starving.

288
00:16:14,725 --> 00:16:17,790
Pride and self-respect
mean everything to us.

289
00:16:17,815 --> 00:16:20,898
But here we are,
running and hiding from you.

290
00:16:21,025 --> 00:16:24,790
In the name of God,
all we have left is our lives.

291
00:16:24,815 --> 00:16:28,080
Your life is not worth anything.

292
00:16:28,105 --> 00:16:29,975
It will be of use
only to you.

293
00:16:30,025 --> 00:16:33,040
You're the kind of man who hides
inside the house...

294
00:16:33,065 --> 00:16:35,410
and has your wife lie to us.

295
00:16:35,435 --> 00:16:38,040
You're a deadbeat
who hides behind his wife!

296
00:16:38,065 --> 00:16:41,569
All of you were so well-spoken
when you came to the bank to borrow money.

297
00:16:41,594 --> 00:16:43,895
Now when we ask for the money back,
you think it's unfair?

298
00:16:43,930 --> 00:16:45,775
You shameless people!
- Sir, stop that.

299
00:16:46,025 --> 00:16:48,039
I'm telling you, stop.
- Or what?

300
00:16:48,645 --> 00:16:51,950
You came to the bank first.
Will you send your wife next?

301
00:16:51,975 --> 00:16:53,910
That's my wife you're talking about--

302
00:16:53,935 --> 00:16:55,750
Watch out!
- Marudhu!

303
00:16:58,025 --> 00:16:59,547
Get down, fast!

304
00:17:01,025 --> 00:17:02,185
Natesan, hurry!

305
00:17:02,848 --> 00:17:04,018
Climb down fast.

306
00:17:07,997 --> 00:17:10,531
Marudhu!

307
00:17:10,831 --> 00:17:12,201
Marudhu!

308
00:17:12,950 --> 00:17:14,080
Marudhu!

309
00:17:14,105 --> 00:17:15,645
Marudhu!

310
00:17:16,691 --> 00:17:17,901
Can you hear me, brother?

311
00:17:21,945 --> 00:17:24,330
My friend! You did warn me.

312
00:17:24,355 --> 00:17:27,330
You said, small or big,
interest is interest.

313
00:17:27,355 --> 00:17:28,950
But I didn't listen!

314
00:17:28,975 --> 00:17:30,758
Why did I rush in?

315
00:17:33,126 --> 00:17:34,376
Please wake up!

316
00:17:34,725 --> 00:17:36,025
Wake up, mate.

317
00:17:50,314 --> 00:17:52,830
Look what you've done to my husband.

318
00:17:52,855 --> 00:17:55,355
Didn't he tell you
it was a bad idea?

319
00:17:56,065 --> 00:17:59,475
Look what you've done to him!

320
00:18:00,815 --> 00:18:03,185
My dearest!

321
00:18:23,725 --> 00:18:25,065
Marudhu...

322
00:18:31,200 --> 00:18:33,120
The law obeys the rich.

323
00:18:33,160 --> 00:18:34,870
The poor must obey the law.

324
00:18:34,895 --> 00:18:36,685
Do you need me to explain this?

325
00:18:36,725 --> 00:18:40,700
Why are you causing trouble
for everyone over this incident?

326
00:18:40,725 --> 00:18:42,355
I have taken a crop loan, too.

327
00:18:42,685 --> 00:18:43,975
Am I not managing?

328
00:18:44,011 --> 00:18:45,359
Fools!

329
00:18:47,079 --> 00:18:49,409
Stop wailing and wait.

330
00:18:51,370 --> 00:18:52,200
Hello?

331
00:18:52,225 --> 00:18:54,456
Hello, sir.
- Tell me, Kuttiyandi.

332
00:18:54,481 --> 00:18:56,580
You never come to the bank these days.

333
00:18:56,605 --> 00:18:59,750
The mediation work is keeping me busy.
How is the manager?

334
00:18:59,775 --> 00:19:01,395
He is well.

335
00:19:01,565 --> 00:19:03,225
Who came here this morning?

336
00:19:03,225 --> 00:19:04,935
Aravind's team.

337
00:19:05,621 --> 00:19:07,201
He's the grumpy type.

338
00:19:07,315 --> 00:19:08,870
It's gotten so big.

339
00:19:08,895 --> 00:19:10,935
One of them wants to protest
in front of the body.

340
00:19:10,935 --> 00:19:13,290
And another guy wants to
do a sit-in outside the bank.

341
00:19:13,315 --> 00:19:15,914
This is not going to be easy.

342
00:19:17,975 --> 00:19:21,476
Make sure no one from your bank
comes to the village for a month.

343
00:19:21,798 --> 00:19:22,748
Thank you!

344
00:19:24,740 --> 00:19:26,976
He said he will handle it.

345
00:19:27,338 --> 00:19:29,798
Tell Aravind to take a month off
and go to his hometown.

346
00:19:31,395 --> 00:19:32,355
Hello, sir.

347
00:19:32,790 --> 00:19:34,990
The issue could get out of hand.

348
00:19:35,395 --> 00:19:36,700
Let's speak in private.

349
00:19:36,725 --> 00:19:40,580
If we speak in private,
the villagers will get suspicious of me.

350
00:19:40,605 --> 00:19:41,975
They voted for me.

351
00:19:43,225 --> 00:19:44,305
Constable!

352
00:19:44,609 --> 00:19:46,547
Get four of the main people
among them to come here.

353
00:19:46,572 --> 00:19:51,367
Inspector, we need to make sure
this doesn't get media attention.

354
00:19:54,621 --> 00:19:57,040
Look, what happened is unfortunate.

355
00:19:57,065 --> 00:20:00,975
But what's the point in wailing
and whining about what's past?

356
00:20:01,185 --> 00:20:03,330
Your leader is right here.

357
00:20:03,355 --> 00:20:05,685
I'll arrange for a compensation.

358
00:20:05,895 --> 00:20:08,225
Wasn't it wrong on our part
to not repay the loan?

359
00:20:08,798 --> 00:20:11,000
What's the point in blaming
the bank officers?

360
00:20:11,025 --> 00:20:13,000
But, sir...
- Be quiet.

361
00:20:13,025 --> 00:20:14,315
These are our people, sir.

362
00:20:15,645 --> 00:20:18,910
I understand what you're trying to say.

363
00:20:18,935 --> 00:20:21,145
We, too, are upset over the loss of a life.

364
00:20:21,805 --> 00:20:23,488
Everyday, because
of verbal battles, ego

365
00:20:23,512 --> 00:20:25,370
clashes, family
disputes, marital disputes,

366
00:20:25,395 --> 00:20:28,065
so many people lose their lives everyday.
Don't you read the papers?

367
00:20:28,065 --> 00:20:30,775
Why are you comparing this
to marital disputes?

368
00:20:31,300 --> 00:20:34,328
Since he couldn't repay the loan,
they humiliated him and killed him.

369
00:20:34,451 --> 00:20:36,969
And you're talking about
fights with wives and mistresses!

370
00:20:38,935 --> 00:20:41,025
That's not what I meant.

371
00:20:41,912 --> 00:20:46,160
Do you have any evidence
to prove that he died because of the bank?

372
00:20:46,185 --> 00:20:47,790
Did he leave a note behind?

373
00:20:47,815 --> 00:20:49,750
Does anybody have any evidence?

374
00:20:49,775 --> 00:20:53,025
If you do, please bring it to me
right away.

375
00:20:53,057 --> 00:20:54,648
I will take immediate action.

376
00:20:56,525 --> 00:20:57,830
Am I right, Leader?

377
00:20:57,855 --> 00:20:58,975
Marudhu!

378
00:20:59,848 --> 00:21:00,938
Vellai...

379
00:21:01,114 --> 00:21:04,330
Forget about what's past
and think about what's next.

380
00:21:04,355 --> 00:21:07,330
What's happened has happened.
A case will go on forever.

381
00:21:07,355 --> 00:21:10,641
Let's try to get a compensation
for Marudhu's wife.

382
00:21:10,927 --> 00:21:13,677
Don't ruin her chances
of getting money.

383
00:21:15,049 --> 00:21:17,781
Follow up on the post mortem.
I will cover the expenses.

384
00:21:20,815 --> 00:21:22,398
Who is Valli?

385
00:21:26,760 --> 00:21:28,050
Marudhu!

386
00:22:55,976 --> 00:22:57,580
Mate...
- Yeah?

387
00:22:57,605 --> 00:23:00,660
My life is pitiful
as a crooked-mouthed yawn!

388
00:23:00,685 --> 00:23:05,605
My legs are going to fall apart
pedalling all the way to buy you a sickle.

389
00:23:05,630 --> 00:23:08,975
Savari Muthu lives less than a mile away.

390
00:23:09,065 --> 00:23:12,395
I asked him for a billhook,
but he made me a sickle!

391
00:23:12,420 --> 00:23:13,750
I'm sure he did.

392
00:23:13,775 --> 00:23:16,450
With smiths like him, how can we farm?
- How can we?

393
00:23:16,490 --> 00:23:20,040
Though it's four miles away,
Kuppam Pattrai tools are the best.

394
00:23:20,065 --> 00:23:23,605
Looks like you will insist on going to
Kuppam Pattrai even to buy needle.

395
00:23:23,630 --> 00:23:24,960
Yes, because of their quality.

396
00:23:25,121 --> 00:23:26,187
I'm sure.

397
00:23:26,212 --> 00:23:28,641
Apparently, Karnataka is getting
a lot of rainfall.

398
00:23:28,666 --> 00:23:30,450
We will have water this season.

399
00:23:30,475 --> 00:23:33,275
We should set up shop
at the Mannargudi farmers market this week.

400
00:23:33,300 --> 00:23:34,508
Okay, boss.
- Hit it!

401
00:23:41,809 --> 00:23:43,040
Welcome!

402
00:23:43,080 --> 00:23:46,040
It's the cultivating season.
I knew you would come to me.

403
00:23:46,065 --> 00:23:48,105
Let's get to business.

404
00:23:48,130 --> 00:23:49,340
I'm on it.

405
00:23:50,275 --> 00:23:51,315
Oh, Lord Muruga!

406
00:23:51,888 --> 00:23:52,848
Kuppa...

407
00:23:53,696 --> 00:23:55,450
My mate wants a sickle.

408
00:23:55,475 --> 00:23:58,290
What kind do you want?

409
00:23:58,315 --> 00:24:00,120
What kinds have you got?

410
00:24:00,145 --> 00:24:01,870
There's country sickle.

411
00:24:01,895 --> 00:24:03,580
Then there's Madurai sickle.

412
00:24:03,605 --> 00:24:05,160
There's the billhook sickle.

413
00:24:05,185 --> 00:24:07,000
Then there's Tirupachi sickle.

414
00:24:07,025 --> 00:24:09,645
What kind do you want?
- Right...

415
00:24:09,680 --> 00:24:13,315
I can even forge you the Thekkathi kind.

416
00:24:13,508 --> 00:24:16,250
Mate, I think he's going to be a pain.

417
00:24:16,275 --> 00:24:17,225
You think so?

418
00:24:17,403 --> 00:24:19,870
Show me one of each kind.

419
00:24:19,895 --> 00:24:21,025
Venaam! (No)

420
00:24:21,557 --> 00:24:25,219
Show them a sample
of each type of our sickle.

421
00:24:28,252 --> 00:24:30,412
You go and spin the wheel.

422
00:24:30,628 --> 00:24:31,628
Look at that!

423
00:24:33,298 --> 00:24:35,351
So her name is Venaam?

424
00:24:35,831 --> 00:24:37,890
So you don't want her?
- I do!

425
00:24:40,113 --> 00:24:41,323
Mate...

426
00:24:41,725 --> 00:24:44,200
Now you'll drag me down to Kuppan's
even to buy a safety pin?

427
00:24:44,225 --> 00:24:46,065
Of course!

428
00:24:46,355 --> 00:24:50,200
With every slash, my sickles
shout my name out loud.

429
00:24:50,225 --> 00:24:51,895
Am I right?

430
00:24:52,225 --> 00:24:53,815
That's Kuppan's interpretation.

431
00:24:55,225 --> 00:24:56,355
He's right in way.

432
00:24:56,645 --> 00:24:58,815
Where's Venaam?
Tell her to hurry up.

433
00:24:59,220 --> 00:25:01,290
There are many samples.

434
00:25:01,315 --> 00:25:03,950
It will take some time
to search and pick one of each.

435
00:25:03,975 --> 00:25:05,950
Why put her through so much trouble?

436
00:25:05,975 --> 00:25:07,725
One of these sickles
on your cot will do.

437
00:25:07,751 --> 00:25:10,250
I just need a sickle
to take with me to the farm.

438
00:25:10,275 --> 00:25:13,410
Yes, or we can return next week.
- Pick and choose the right one.

439
00:25:13,435 --> 00:25:15,935
When you want to marry
a twenty year old girl...

440
00:25:16,125 --> 00:25:19,145
you can't marry
two ten year old girls instead.

441
00:25:19,185 --> 00:25:20,476
Can you?
- No!

442
00:25:21,034 --> 00:25:22,654
Today is Friday.
- Yes.

443
00:25:24,597 --> 00:25:26,609
We don't take returns on Fridays.

444
00:25:28,939 --> 00:25:30,519
Looks like she's short tempered.

445
00:25:37,736 --> 00:25:38,946
Look at her!

446
00:25:43,580 --> 00:25:46,660
Why are you ringing the bell?
- You carry on. I have an important work.

447
00:25:46,685 --> 00:25:48,935
Right! Have fun.

448
00:25:54,937 --> 00:25:56,700
Nagaraj!
- Hello.

449
00:25:56,725 --> 00:25:57,855
Is that Kuppan's daughter?

450
00:25:57,855 --> 00:26:00,200
Yes, they have leased two fields.

451
00:26:00,225 --> 00:26:02,250
Can't a smith's daughter plough?

452
00:26:02,275 --> 00:26:04,370
Oh, she should.
It's a good thing.

453
00:26:04,395 --> 00:26:06,700
How is it good for us
if she ploughs?

454
00:26:06,725 --> 00:26:08,775
It's good for me.
- For you?

455
00:26:10,117 --> 00:26:11,410
It's good for my family.

456
00:26:11,435 --> 00:26:12,645
I don't get it.

457
00:26:12,670 --> 00:26:13,670
Do you get it?

458
00:26:15,518 --> 00:26:17,950
Do you have a problem with that?
- Why should I?

459
00:26:17,975 --> 00:26:20,185
Then mind your work.
- I'm minding my work.

460
00:26:26,935 --> 00:26:29,330
Why are you looking over here?
- I'm just observing.

461
00:26:29,355 --> 00:26:30,895
Uncle.
- Yes?

462
00:26:31,292 --> 00:26:33,830
If my brother asks,
tell him I went home. - Okay.

463
00:26:33,855 --> 00:26:35,267
So there's a villain!

464
00:26:35,292 --> 00:26:37,273
I'll handle him, too.
Go on, I'll see you.

465
00:26:38,518 --> 00:26:39,518
Get lost!

466
00:26:39,888 --> 00:26:42,290
I'm leaving.
- Where are you off to?

467
00:26:42,315 --> 00:26:45,330
I had asked her father to forge
two ploughs. I have to check on that.

468
00:26:45,355 --> 00:26:46,950
You could have asked
when she was here.

469
00:26:46,975 --> 00:26:49,830
That would be rude.
I should go to their house and ask.

470
00:26:49,855 --> 00:26:52,525
Amudha, get home safe.
He's trouble.

471
00:27:04,935 --> 00:27:05,855
Careful.

472
00:27:09,275 --> 00:27:10,145
Oh, no!

473
00:27:10,323 --> 00:27:12,363
Can't I do anything without him?

474
00:27:15,308 --> 00:27:18,976
I thought it was my lucky day,
that I could finally nab her.

475
00:27:19,250 --> 00:27:21,120
But Marudhu came in the way!

476
00:27:27,716 --> 00:27:30,370
Why is my mate's lady
looking anxious?

477
00:27:30,395 --> 00:27:31,605
Let me ask her.

478
00:27:31,630 --> 00:27:32,870
Why are you waiting here?

479
00:27:32,895 --> 00:27:35,185
I'll wait where I want.
What is your problem?

480
00:27:35,324 --> 00:27:36,614
Suit yourself.

481
00:27:36,775 --> 00:27:39,410
You're looking this way and that.
What are you looking for?

482
00:27:39,435 --> 00:27:41,225
I will look wherever I want.
What's it to you?

483
00:27:41,315 --> 00:27:42,475
Okay.

484
00:27:43,735 --> 00:27:44,895
Have you seen Vella Kunju?

485
00:27:47,721 --> 00:27:49,898
I'll leave out the "Kunju" part.
Have you seen Vella?

486
00:27:50,871 --> 00:27:52,081
Why would I see him?

487
00:27:55,228 --> 00:27:58,305
Okay, forget about it.
- I will ask him if he's seen you.

488
00:27:59,575 --> 00:28:01,115
Arrogant prick!
Get lost.

489
00:28:02,381 --> 00:28:05,211
Weirdo acts like he has grown
a pair of horns!

490
00:28:05,316 --> 00:28:07,570
Kuppan's daughter is so short tempered.

491
00:28:07,689 --> 00:28:09,773
Could he have ruined it for me?

492
00:28:14,494 --> 00:28:16,187
I wonder what he said.

493
00:28:20,704 --> 00:28:21,784
Hello, mate.

494
00:28:21,809 --> 00:28:22,935
Oh, hi!

495
00:28:22,960 --> 00:28:24,775
What brings you here?

496
00:28:24,840 --> 00:28:27,450
Forget about me.
What are you doing by the graveyard?

497
00:28:27,475 --> 00:28:29,580
I came to piss.

498
00:28:29,605 --> 00:28:30,790
What's he looking for?

499
00:28:30,815 --> 00:28:32,685
I don't see or smell piss.

500
00:28:32,725 --> 00:28:35,645
Did you piss into your own mouth?
- No, I wet myself.

501
00:28:35,645 --> 00:28:36,815
Let's go.

502
00:28:36,815 --> 00:28:38,021
She left a long time ago.

503
00:28:38,045 --> 00:28:40,225
Why do you keep
grilling me with questions?

504
00:28:40,250 --> 00:28:41,540
Let's go.
- Stop!

505
00:28:42,204 --> 00:28:43,204
Who's that?

506
00:28:43,517 --> 00:28:45,305
Your brother-in-law.
- Is that him?

507
00:28:45,526 --> 00:28:48,160
What?
- Which of you is behind my sister Amudha?

508
00:28:48,185 --> 00:28:50,290
Why would you go behind her?
Are you stupid?

509
00:28:50,315 --> 00:28:52,000
I'm talking to you!

510
00:28:52,025 --> 00:28:53,580
I heard you're behind her.

511
00:28:53,605 --> 00:28:55,830
He's behind the girl he's going to marry.
What's your problem?

512
00:28:55,855 --> 00:28:57,000
What? Marry her?

513
00:28:57,025 --> 00:28:58,330
Who's going to marry her?
- Me!

514
00:28:58,355 --> 00:28:59,830
I'll thrash you!

515
00:28:59,855 --> 00:29:02,580
I'll rip you apart!
- Calm down, brother-in-law.

516
00:29:02,605 --> 00:29:05,565
You can't insult your sister's fiancé
in front of his friend.

517
00:29:05,590 --> 00:29:07,580
Listen, though he insulted you
in front of me,

518
00:29:07,605 --> 00:29:10,580
don't jump the gun and hit
your fiancée's brother before the wedding.

519
00:29:10,605 --> 00:29:12,580
Hit me before the wedding?
Hit me!

520
00:29:12,605 --> 00:29:14,660
Calm down, brother-in-law!
- I dare you, if you're a man...

521
00:29:14,685 --> 00:29:16,200
Wait, brother-in-law.
- Am I your brother-in-law?

522
00:29:16,225 --> 00:29:18,605
I won't hit you, even after the wedding.
He's joking.

523
00:29:18,630 --> 00:29:19,960
Trust him.

524
00:29:20,185 --> 00:29:21,660
After the wedding?

525
00:29:21,685 --> 00:29:23,370
I never said there will be one.
- You did.

526
00:29:23,395 --> 00:29:25,145
When did I?
- Just now.

527
00:29:25,145 --> 00:29:28,000
Who's your brother-in-law?
Who's the groom?

528
00:29:28,025 --> 00:29:29,275
I'm.
- Look!

529
00:29:29,355 --> 00:29:31,750
I will get my sister married
to an employed man.

530
00:29:31,775 --> 00:29:33,641
We are not robbers.
- Listen!

531
00:29:33,666 --> 00:29:36,790
I won't let my sister marry
a farmer with no future!

532
00:29:36,815 --> 00:29:39,395
I'll never come this way again.
I'm going the other way.

533
00:29:39,435 --> 00:29:41,040
I'll deal with you later.

534
00:29:41,065 --> 00:29:43,370
I agree. Get lost.

535
00:29:43,395 --> 00:29:46,750
He's so proud of having a salaried job
at a water company.

536
00:29:46,775 --> 00:29:49,565
My brother-in-law's brain is over-heated
from too much exertion.

537
00:29:50,113 --> 00:29:52,750
I will make him snail curry
after the wedding.

538
00:29:52,775 --> 00:29:54,355
Make it without salt.

539
00:29:54,404 --> 00:29:57,672
I'm sure his sister is waiting
around here somewhere. Let's find her.

540
00:30:37,016 --> 00:30:39,120
I wanted to marry her
to a salaried person.

541
00:30:39,145 --> 00:30:40,633
Nobody listened to me.

542
00:30:40,658 --> 00:30:44,500
Now they've gotten her married to a farmer.
They are going to suffer.

543
00:30:44,525 --> 00:30:46,645
She says she won't work in the shop
after the wedding.

544
00:30:46,645 --> 00:30:51,855
When she has children, as their uncle,
I will be responsible for them.

545
00:30:51,880 --> 00:30:53,660
I'll whack you!

546
00:30:53,685 --> 00:30:56,225
He may be a fool,
but he is family.

547
00:30:56,250 --> 00:30:57,815
Step in with your right foot.

548
00:31:06,855 --> 00:31:09,242
What kind of a name is Venaam?

549
00:31:10,185 --> 00:31:11,531
Oh, that!

550
00:31:12,501 --> 00:31:16,330
After my brother, my parents had
two babies who died.

551
00:31:16,355 --> 00:31:17,475
Oh, no.

552
00:31:17,775 --> 00:31:24,187
So my mother named me "No"
so that no harm should befall me.

553
00:31:24,652 --> 00:31:26,406
I survived.

554
00:31:28,435 --> 00:31:29,815
But my mother died.

555
00:31:31,441 --> 00:31:34,271
Why are you getting teary now?

556
00:31:35,503 --> 00:31:37,961
So what if your mother is no more?
I'm here for you.

557
00:31:39,006 --> 00:31:40,926
Be brave. We will live a good life.

558
00:31:50,620 --> 00:31:54,660
Bury the fallen twigs into the soil.
Bring the Neem manure and oil cake.

559
00:31:54,685 --> 00:31:59,870
Wealthy men like you are using
imported salts, and chemical fertilizers.

560
00:31:59,895 --> 00:32:02,660
But you are still dealing with
dung and twigs and oil cakes!

561
00:32:02,685 --> 00:32:04,225
Let them do as they desire.

562
00:32:04,250 --> 00:32:06,250
We have our cattle.

563
00:32:06,275 --> 00:32:08,790
We will farm with natural manure
as long as we have our cattle.

564
00:32:08,815 --> 00:32:10,025
Well said!

565
00:32:43,726 --> 00:32:46,525
We need 25 people
for planting tomorrow.

566
00:32:46,550 --> 00:32:47,975
Inform Amudha.
- Okay!

567
00:32:48,025 --> 00:32:51,145
We will need about
a hundred of those bundles.

568
00:33:14,701 --> 00:33:15,911
Marudhu!

569
00:33:16,895 --> 00:33:20,225
Before his marriage, Vella Kunju and you
were inseparable. Where's he now?

570
00:33:20,250 --> 00:33:23,680
His wife is five months pregnant.

571
00:33:23,895 --> 00:33:26,445
He's probably researching
whether it's a boy or a girl.

572
00:33:26,446 --> 00:33:27,662
Why I should spoil that?

573
00:33:27,687 --> 00:33:29,200
That's right!
- Keep quiet and eat.

574
00:33:29,225 --> 00:33:31,580
People are asking.
- Asking what?

575
00:33:31,605 --> 00:33:33,540
Whether we have a name for the baby.

576
00:33:33,565 --> 00:33:36,870
We depend on soil and water for a living.
If it's a girl, we'll name her Cauvery.

577
00:33:36,895 --> 00:33:38,719
If it's a boy, we'll name him Bhoominadhan.

578
00:33:38,895 --> 00:33:41,664
Pray for a baby girl.
She will feed us till the end.

579
00:34:00,203 --> 00:34:02,790
Dresses for girls
who were born to rule!

580
00:34:02,815 --> 00:34:03,855
Here.

581
00:34:04,114 --> 00:34:05,625
Here you go.
- Keep it.

582
00:34:40,338 --> 00:34:43,612
Vella Kunju's second baby
is a girl child, too!

583
00:34:47,880 --> 00:34:52,200
Even the livestock in this village
are friendlier to us.

584
00:34:52,225 --> 00:34:55,160
These people want to practice agriculture
among themselves.

585
00:34:55,185 --> 00:34:57,370
And trade within themselves, too.

586
00:34:57,395 --> 00:34:59,378
I don't have any hope.

587
00:34:59,880 --> 00:35:01,880
They are like a co-operative society.

588
00:35:02,176 --> 00:35:04,580
They may not know about the world economy.

589
00:35:04,605 --> 00:35:07,750
But as educated people,
we should understand globalisation.

590
00:35:07,775 --> 00:35:10,580
Can we let these people be
in an independent economy?

591
00:35:10,605 --> 00:35:13,540
Then what's the point of an office,
election, or government?

592
00:35:13,565 --> 00:35:15,450
Or educated officers like us?

593
00:35:15,475 --> 00:35:16,685
Be positive, Aravind.

594
00:35:18,363 --> 00:35:21,330
The bank people are back
to offer us loans.

595
00:35:21,355 --> 00:35:22,200
Really?

596
00:35:22,225 --> 00:35:25,700
They keep coming all the way
in their car. Let's hear them out.

597
00:35:25,725 --> 00:35:26,975
Mate...

598
00:35:27,709 --> 00:35:30,190
We can't just turn them back everyday.

599
00:35:30,331 --> 00:35:32,034
Let's see what they have to say?

600
00:35:32,638 --> 00:35:36,034
They are after profit.
Forget about it.

601
00:35:36,059 --> 00:35:38,950
They're educated people.
They won't do harm.

602
00:35:38,975 --> 00:35:40,275
You don't get it!

603
00:35:40,395 --> 00:35:43,660
Valli, that's enough.
Come and have lunch.

604
00:35:43,685 --> 00:35:45,065
We'll finish this column and come.

605
00:35:45,090 --> 00:35:48,292
They have stopped the car
to talk to us. Let's hear them out.

606
00:35:48,428 --> 00:35:50,638
Agriculture loans at low interest rates.

607
00:35:50,815 --> 00:35:51,815
Read it.

608
00:35:54,534 --> 00:35:57,494
Pass it to the last row.
And this gentleman.

609
00:35:58,098 --> 00:36:00,098
You have given each of us
a piece of paper.

610
00:36:00,299 --> 00:36:02,620
We are staring at it.

611
00:36:02,645 --> 00:36:04,870
But we are not educated.

612
00:36:04,895 --> 00:36:07,831
Those who had some education
went to the cities to work.

613
00:36:08,049 --> 00:36:11,995
If you explain in detail,
we will understand.

614
00:36:12,225 --> 00:36:13,395
Dear Farmers,

615
00:36:13,605 --> 00:36:16,700
Our bank has brought in a special scheme
just for you people.

616
00:36:16,725 --> 00:36:20,775
This notice carried information
on how to utilise and develop on it.

617
00:36:21,113 --> 00:36:25,000
The officers are here for a meeting.
Go play elsewhere!

618
00:36:25,025 --> 00:36:31,290
We have come here to provide
low interest bank loans to farmers.

619
00:36:31,315 --> 00:36:34,160
Low interest rate or high,
interest is interest.

620
00:36:34,185 --> 00:36:38,620
In our village, we only borrow money
be it a ear-piercing ceremony or wedding.

621
00:36:38,645 --> 00:36:40,185
And we return it once it's over.

622
00:36:40,525 --> 00:36:43,620
Don't burden our heads
with interest and loans.

623
00:36:43,840 --> 00:36:44,750
Hold on, mate.

624
00:36:44,775 --> 00:36:48,200
We haven't even heard them fully.
Why are you refusing already?

625
00:36:48,225 --> 00:36:49,750
Tell us clearly, sir.

626
00:36:49,775 --> 00:36:51,565
Please explain it to them.
- Okay, madam.

627
00:36:52,275 --> 00:36:53,910
The gentleman is right.

628
00:36:53,935 --> 00:36:56,620
We are here to explain this to you.

629
00:36:56,645 --> 00:36:58,080
Listen up!

630
00:36:58,105 --> 00:37:03,838
Do you think all the big companies
invest their own money in the business?

631
00:37:04,685 --> 00:37:06,721
He invests three rupees.

632
00:37:06,990 --> 00:37:10,580
The bank loans seven rupees to him.

633
00:37:10,605 --> 00:37:14,924
They develop their business
with a loan of thousands of crores.

634
00:37:15,065 --> 00:37:19,034
Wishing that the farmers could also
benefit from these methods,

635
00:37:19,168 --> 00:37:23,410
the government has sent us to
go from village to village to educate you.

636
00:37:23,435 --> 00:37:27,276
Whose money do you think
we are giving to you?

637
00:37:27,355 --> 00:37:29,830
It's all tax money
collected from you.

638
00:37:29,855 --> 00:37:33,355
The banks are giving it back to you
in the form of a loan.

639
00:37:33,380 --> 00:37:37,160
Sir, we give you our money
so that it may be safe.

640
00:37:37,185 --> 00:37:39,935
You want us to pay an interest
over our tax?

641
00:37:39,935 --> 00:37:41,540
How is this fair?
- Mate!

642
00:37:41,565 --> 00:37:44,700
They are trying to do good for us.
Why do you keep obstructing them?

643
00:37:44,725 --> 00:37:47,596
Think about it.
Take Murugesan, for instance.

644
00:37:48,105 --> 00:37:51,463
He didn't have money for diesel
so he had to graze the saplings with cows.

645
00:37:51,685 --> 00:37:56,003
Natesan didn't have money to buy water,
so he burnt his cane farm down.

646
00:37:56,435 --> 00:37:58,612
Have you forgotten?
Be quiet.

647
00:37:58,775 --> 00:38:01,331
They are here for our good.

648
00:38:01,525 --> 00:38:05,620
They have been coming to us
for four months now. We paid no heed.

649
00:38:05,645 --> 00:38:07,065
Ours is not the only village.

650
00:38:07,331 --> 00:38:11,081
They have so many places to go to,
to educate and help people.

651
00:38:11,605 --> 00:38:14,580
They want farmers to be prosperous.
We must respect that!

652
00:38:14,605 --> 00:38:19,200
Sir, whenever something good is happening,
there will be people to argue.

653
00:38:19,225 --> 00:38:21,950
You want to offer us farmers
low interest loans.

654
00:38:21,975 --> 00:38:24,120
We understand that you care about us.

655
00:38:24,185 --> 00:38:26,645
I'm happy.
I will make them understand.

656
00:38:26,670 --> 00:38:29,500
Those who understand will
take a loan from you. Forget about others.

657
00:38:29,525 --> 00:38:33,120
When they are short of money,
they will come to you.

658
00:38:33,145 --> 00:38:35,660
Goodbye now.
- Goodbye!

659
00:38:35,685 --> 00:38:36,685
Goodbye!

660
00:38:36,838 --> 00:38:38,620
Good day!

661
00:38:38,645 --> 00:38:39,685
See you at the bank.

662
00:38:39,725 --> 00:38:40,895
Thank you.

663
00:38:42,775 --> 00:38:43,565
Mate...

664
00:38:44,895 --> 00:38:46,685
This doesn't feel right to me.

665
00:38:55,791 --> 00:38:57,911
A month after Marudhu's death,

666
00:38:58,331 --> 00:39:02,745
they put up notices with our photographs
in all public places,

667
00:39:03,113 --> 00:39:10,315
and decided to seize our homes and lands
if we fail to repay them in three months.

668
00:39:10,490 --> 00:39:12,080
We didn't know what to do.

669
00:39:12,105 --> 00:39:15,145
We were paying the interest regularly
when there was good yield.

670
00:39:15,315 --> 00:39:18,602
Now when our lands are parched,
you plan to snatch our properties?

671
00:39:18,627 --> 00:39:20,377
Does this seem fair to you?

672
00:39:33,534 --> 00:39:37,370
The district collector will be here.
Please maintain silence.

673
00:39:37,395 --> 00:39:39,725
Stop chanting, people.

674
00:39:40,220 --> 00:39:42,540
Who wants to submit petitions?
What's your grievance?

675
00:39:42,565 --> 00:39:45,225
We need to submit a petition.
- He will come at 9 AM. Wait.

676
00:39:48,565 --> 00:39:50,081
It's the police.

677
00:39:50,768 --> 00:39:51,728
The police?

678
00:39:53,685 --> 00:39:55,200
That looks like the bank officers.

679
00:39:55,225 --> 00:39:57,185
No, they won't come here.

680
00:39:57,225 --> 00:39:59,105
I'm out of here.
- No, don't go!

681
00:39:59,130 --> 00:40:01,580
Let's run!
- Come back.

682
00:40:01,605 --> 00:40:02,815
Stop!

683
00:40:10,098 --> 00:40:12,848
They have come to submit a petition.
- Why did they run away?

684
00:40:13,081 --> 00:40:15,775
They got scared that the bank officers
brought in the police.

685
00:40:15,935 --> 00:40:16,975
Bank officers?

686
00:40:17,105 --> 00:40:18,025
Yes, sir.

687
00:40:18,395 --> 00:40:21,895
We took a bank loan for farming
five years ago.

688
00:40:22,823 --> 00:40:24,660
For two years, we suffered
because of too much rainfall.

689
00:40:24,685 --> 00:40:26,605
The next three years, because of
too little rainfall.

690
00:40:26,630 --> 00:40:27,710
We couldn't pay them back.

691
00:40:28,622 --> 00:40:31,582
They kept charging us an interest
over the loan.

692
00:40:31,685 --> 00:40:34,275
Unable to handle the pressure,
my friend Marudhu died.

693
00:40:34,966 --> 00:40:36,096
He was her son.

694
00:40:36,299 --> 00:40:37,589
Hello, madam.
- Hello, sir.

695
00:40:38,315 --> 00:40:39,475
Look at this notice.

696
00:40:40,185 --> 00:40:41,315
Just look at it.

697
00:40:41,775 --> 00:40:46,385
They have humiliated us by printing
our photos in the papers.

698
00:40:46,701 --> 00:40:48,751
We are too embarrassed
to step out of our homes.

699
00:40:49,201 --> 00:40:50,331
Even the Inspector knows.

700
00:40:52,160 --> 00:40:55,580
They promised a compensation.
But we never got it.

701
00:40:55,605 --> 00:40:57,160
Which village?
- Chathurvedhi Mangalam.

702
00:40:57,185 --> 00:40:58,775
Comes under Valaingaiman Taluk.

703
00:40:58,938 --> 00:41:01,888
We have applied for a drought fund
for the district.

704
00:41:02,370 --> 00:41:04,790
We will give everyone relief
once it is granted.

705
00:41:04,815 --> 00:41:05,645
Okay, sir.

706
00:41:05,670 --> 00:41:08,800
I'm working on a scheme
for alternate employment.

707
00:41:09,114 --> 00:41:11,950
I can't help you with this bank loan.

708
00:41:11,975 --> 00:41:13,682
It's under RBI's control.

709
00:41:13,707 --> 00:41:15,877
The bank follows their rules.

710
00:41:16,216 --> 00:41:18,556
Why don't you try speaking
to the bank manager?

711
00:41:18,870 --> 00:41:21,580
They know how important you are.

712
00:41:21,605 --> 00:41:22,605
They don't.

713
00:41:22,911 --> 00:41:25,290
They will help you out.

714
00:41:25,315 --> 00:41:26,185
Okay?

715
00:41:29,275 --> 00:41:31,185
You said someone died?

716
00:41:31,572 --> 00:41:32,612
My friend.

717
00:41:32,807 --> 00:41:35,580
Give him the details in writing.
I will take it from there.

718
00:41:35,605 --> 00:41:38,315
Write down the petition.
I'll come take it from you.

719
00:41:38,756 --> 00:41:41,466
Can't we help them now?

720
00:41:41,565 --> 00:41:43,836
They can help themselves.

721
00:41:44,105 --> 00:41:47,406
India's prestige in the world
is that we are an agricultural country.

722
00:41:47,693 --> 00:41:49,289
If they get together...

723
00:41:50,605 --> 00:41:52,656
the whole world will support them.

724
00:41:53,725 --> 00:41:57,370
"When one doesn't realise their own power,
they will be forced into begging"...

725
00:41:57,395 --> 00:41:59,065
that's the elephant's lesson to us.

726
00:41:59,201 --> 00:42:00,501
Farmers are no different.

727
00:42:03,621 --> 00:42:06,251
Let's go meet Kozhukattai.

728
00:42:06,275 --> 00:42:09,040
He did bring shame to the village
before he ran away.

729
00:42:09,065 --> 00:42:11,065
But we have no other choice.

730
00:42:11,525 --> 00:42:13,775
He was the thief
who shamed our village.

731
00:42:15,378 --> 00:42:19,418
Just because he's made some money,
should we fall at his feet?

732
00:42:19,990 --> 00:42:22,950
I heard he works in Bangalore
and sends money home every week.

733
00:42:22,975 --> 00:42:26,160
What use is ancient history?

734
00:42:26,185 --> 00:42:28,185
We need a way out.

735
00:42:28,998 --> 00:42:29,878
Brother...

736
00:42:30,315 --> 00:42:31,685
he has a big house.

737
00:42:32,072 --> 00:42:33,782
He even lends money for interest.

738
00:42:34,564 --> 00:42:35,894
Everyone speaks highly of him.

739
00:42:37,815 --> 00:42:40,250
Don't overthink it.

740
00:42:40,275 --> 00:42:43,930
He has set up a shop.
He's even going to buy a car.

741
00:42:53,096 --> 00:42:55,976
Kozhukattai must be
a big-shot in Bengaluru.

742
00:42:59,987 --> 00:43:01,277
Step aside!

743
00:43:02,736 --> 00:43:04,250
How was my driving?

744
00:43:04,275 --> 00:43:07,000
This is the perfect car
for a majestic lion like yourself.

745
00:43:07,025 --> 00:43:09,290
I'm happy with the car's condition.
- Okay.

746
00:43:09,315 --> 00:43:10,815
I like the driver's face too.
- Thank you!

747
00:43:10,855 --> 00:43:14,370
I will give you 8 lakhs
in a single payment. Let's sign it.

748
00:43:14,395 --> 00:43:16,870
People worked hard for that money.
- True.

749
00:43:16,895 --> 00:43:19,540
I must spend it prudently.
You both discuss it.

750
00:43:19,565 --> 00:43:20,700
Okay, we will.
- Carry on.

751
00:43:20,725 --> 00:43:23,410
Stop staring at me! Go.

752
00:43:23,435 --> 00:43:25,450
Hi, Daddy. I'm off to school.

753
00:43:25,475 --> 00:43:29,205
Though you go to an English medium school,
address your parents in Tamil. Okay?

754
00:43:29,230 --> 00:43:31,810
"Okay" is an English word too, Daddy.

755
00:43:31,853 --> 00:43:33,643
Son of a thief! Talks too much.

756
00:43:33,895 --> 00:43:36,790
Free-loader! Drop the kids at school.
- Okay, sir.

757
00:43:36,815 --> 00:43:39,645
You have nothing to do.
Stay there and pick them up after school.

758
00:43:39,685 --> 00:43:40,950
Yeah?
- Okay, sir.

759
00:43:40,975 --> 00:43:43,525
[Speaking Kannada] Give water to
Tamil Nadu! I should bring a bucket?

760
00:43:43,550 --> 00:43:45,160
Sit down.

761
00:43:45,185 --> 00:43:46,775
How are you?
- I'm well.

762
00:43:47,315 --> 00:43:48,395
Sit down, Auntie.

763
00:43:48,498 --> 00:43:49,458
Sit.

764
00:43:49,815 --> 00:43:51,025
How is everyone?

765
00:43:51,621 --> 00:43:53,291
We are well.
- Not bad.

766
00:43:57,797 --> 00:43:59,957
I'm happy that you all
came to see me.

767
00:44:00,105 --> 00:44:05,105
I didn't come back to our village
because I felt like I betrayed you all.

768
00:44:05,475 --> 00:44:09,023
But I always enquired about our village
and stayed updated.

769
00:44:09,605 --> 00:44:13,620
I'm happy you didn't hold grudge
against us for the past.

770
00:44:13,645 --> 00:44:15,275
Thank you for being
the same old Kozhukattai.

771
00:44:18,701 --> 00:44:19,951
I was at fault.

772
00:44:21,227 --> 00:44:22,427
Sometimes...

773
00:44:23,307 --> 00:44:25,307
I feel like bad things
happen for a good reason.

774
00:44:37,975 --> 00:44:40,225
He actually fell asleep on the reigns?

775
00:44:40,605 --> 00:44:44,275
Is he riding the bulls,
or are the bulls riding him?

776
00:44:44,534 --> 00:44:46,242
He's fast asleep, like a bull!

777
00:44:46,855 --> 00:44:50,145
As long as I get the bull...

778
00:44:52,395 --> 00:44:53,719
Here comes my weapon.

779
00:44:53,995 --> 00:44:56,469
I will perform a stunt
like an action hero!

780
00:45:06,225 --> 00:45:07,855
What a heavenly smile!

781
00:45:14,895 --> 00:45:16,355
What's that noise?

782
00:45:17,105 --> 00:45:19,040
The roads are bumpy.
- Watch it.

783
00:45:19,065 --> 00:45:20,789
Okay, man.

784
00:45:33,911 --> 00:45:36,540
Do you want the bulls?
- Why not?

785
00:45:36,565 --> 00:45:40,160
They're a great breed. They pulled carts.
- Whose cart?

786
00:45:40,185 --> 00:45:43,025
Get lost.
- They are stolen goods, am I right?

787
00:45:43,050 --> 00:45:45,450
These are my bulls.
Who said I stole them?

788
00:45:45,475 --> 00:45:47,500
Aren't these two years of age?

789
00:45:47,525 --> 00:45:52,475
Last month, at the market, I traded them
from the Koradachaari trader.

790
00:45:52,775 --> 00:45:55,062
My final price is 5,000 rupees.
What do you say?

791
00:45:55,087 --> 00:45:57,790
These bulls are worth 50,000.
You are offering 5,000?

792
00:45:57,815 --> 00:46:00,410
I can't pay 50,000 for stolen bulls.

793
00:46:00,435 --> 00:46:04,185
We can send them to Kerala for meat.
The price for beef is only 5,000.

794
00:46:04,582 --> 00:46:08,031
I can hand you the cash now.
If you're not interested, I'm out.

795
00:46:08,145 --> 00:46:09,435
Just 5,000?
- Yes.

796
00:46:10,855 --> 00:46:12,445
Okay, hand me the cash, bald guy.

797
00:46:12,470 --> 00:46:14,850
Robbed cattle with lot difficulties but
this guy giving me only 5000rs

798
00:46:14,875 --> 00:46:16,211
Why is the cash damp?

799
00:46:16,236 --> 00:46:17,946
Because I had kept it
in my underwear.

800
00:46:18,356 --> 00:46:20,830
It's 300 rupees short.
Who will pay the tax?

801
00:46:20,855 --> 00:46:22,200
Stolen Goods Tax?

802
00:46:22,225 --> 00:46:24,620
A bull being sold for meat
doesn't need a collar.

803
00:46:24,645 --> 00:46:26,935
I will sell it for 500 rupees.

804
00:46:26,935 --> 00:46:29,620
Take it. That collar is the noose
around your neck.

805
00:46:29,645 --> 00:46:31,475
It's my problem, you get lost.

806
00:46:36,872 --> 00:46:38,500
Which village is the bull from?
- Kodaivasal.

807
00:46:38,525 --> 00:46:39,605
I'll see you tonight.

808
00:46:40,130 --> 00:46:42,500
I just sold the bulls.
I only have the collar.

809
00:46:42,525 --> 00:46:44,395
It's only 500 rupees.
You want it?

810
00:46:44,908 --> 00:46:46,528
Why are you looking
at me that way?

811
00:46:47,475 --> 00:46:49,475
You look familiar.

812
00:46:50,412 --> 00:46:51,930
The bulls belong to you?

813
00:46:51,955 --> 00:46:53,165
Yes.

814
00:46:53,494 --> 00:46:55,824
Curse that bald guy's mouth!

815
00:46:56,230 --> 00:46:58,711
Let's go.
- Are we going by car?

816
00:46:58,736 --> 00:47:01,856
There's a draught in the village and--
- That's why I had to steal.

817
00:47:02,185 --> 00:47:04,312
Beat him to death!

818
00:47:05,019 --> 00:47:06,439
Say it, scumbag.

819
00:47:08,213 --> 00:47:09,923
It's true that I stole the cow.

820
00:47:10,500 --> 00:47:12,436
I sold it for 5,000 rupees
for slaughter.

821
00:47:12,461 --> 00:47:14,315
5,000 rupees?

822
00:47:14,901 --> 00:47:16,651
He keeps saying that.

823
00:47:16,960 --> 00:47:18,540
What do we do with him?

824
00:47:18,680 --> 00:47:21,760
Sell his house, settle that man's due,
and give him the remaining money.

825
00:47:21,785 --> 00:47:23,703
He can leave with the money.
- Not the house!

826
00:47:23,930 --> 00:47:26,462
You bring us shame because
you have a house in this village. Go!

827
00:47:26,810 --> 00:47:28,100
And stop stealing.

828
00:47:28,125 --> 00:47:30,260
If we sell the house,
he will become destitute.

829
00:47:30,285 --> 00:47:32,470
So, should we pay from the village funds?

830
00:47:32,495 --> 00:47:33,720
There is no money.

831
00:47:33,745 --> 00:47:36,695
Unable to pay for tax, we haven't had
a village festival in four years.

832
00:47:36,720 --> 00:47:39,050
He is a fellow villager.
We must help him out.

833
00:47:39,075 --> 00:47:41,970
Then why don't you pay the 48 grand
out of your own pocket?

834
00:47:41,995 --> 00:47:44,180
Like he has the money
in his pocket.

835
00:47:44,205 --> 00:47:45,890
Are you play-acting?

836
00:47:45,915 --> 00:47:47,985
I want my money.
- We are speaking for you.

837
00:47:48,010 --> 00:47:50,050
Doesn't seem that way.
- Don't shout. Be calm.

838
00:47:50,075 --> 00:47:52,535
Learn to show some respect.
- You people don't deserve it!

839
00:47:52,535 --> 00:47:55,520
How dare you speak that way?
- Hold on!

840
00:47:55,545 --> 00:47:58,640
I'll beat the hell out of you.
I want my money!

841
00:47:58,665 --> 00:48:01,180
Can't you see we're talking?

842
00:48:01,205 --> 00:48:03,289
I'll slit your throat.
- Listen to us, please.

843
00:48:05,597 --> 00:48:07,844
Please don't fight on my account.

844
00:48:09,009 --> 00:48:13,820
As Brother Vella Kunju suggested,
sell my house and settle what's due to him.

845
00:48:14,140 --> 00:48:16,523
I won't cause any more trouble
in our village.

846
00:48:17,105 --> 00:48:18,437
Please forgive me.

847
00:48:22,891 --> 00:48:24,430
I'm leaving this village.

848
00:48:30,695 --> 00:48:32,930
If you hadn't chased me
out of the village...

849
00:48:33,259 --> 00:48:36,049
I wouldn't have turned over a new leaf
and become a successful man.

850
00:48:38,783 --> 00:48:39,823
Brother Vella Kunju...

851
00:48:40,493 --> 00:48:41,862
I hope you're not mad at me.

852
00:48:41,887 --> 00:48:43,097
Come on!

853
00:48:43,245 --> 00:48:44,953
We have come to you for help.

854
00:48:48,180 --> 00:48:49,050
Fine...

855
00:48:49,075 --> 00:48:51,680
How can I help?

856
00:48:51,705 --> 00:48:53,075
I will do what I can.

857
00:48:53,992 --> 00:48:55,343
We don't want money.

858
00:48:55,368 --> 00:48:59,086
You are working in the city
and making good money.

859
00:48:59,212 --> 00:49:01,010
We are all suffering.

860
00:49:01,035 --> 00:49:06,047
If you show us the ropes,
we will work hard and survive.

861
00:49:11,214 --> 00:49:13,047
My line of work?

862
00:49:13,385 --> 00:49:18,789
We will save money and send it to
the wife and children back home.

863
00:49:19,663 --> 00:49:22,351
Vella Kunju and I have put up
our kids in hostels too.

864
00:49:22,566 --> 00:49:24,566
We have no choice.

865
00:49:25,195 --> 00:49:27,625
There's no rain.
There's no yield.

866
00:49:28,712 --> 00:49:31,258
We are struggling to repay the bank loans.

867
00:49:32,300 --> 00:49:38,344
The bank people pressured and humiliated
to no end, and that's why...

868
00:49:38,589 --> 00:49:39,797
Marudhu died.

869
00:49:41,291 --> 00:49:42,291
Auntie!

870
00:49:44,503 --> 00:49:46,930
Don't be angry with us.

871
00:49:46,955 --> 00:49:48,985
Help us if you can.

872
00:49:49,010 --> 00:49:52,359
We will make sure your reputation
is not tarnished.

873
00:49:52,807 --> 00:49:54,227
Help us out.

874
00:49:55,260 --> 00:49:57,220
We put our trust in you.

875
00:49:57,245 --> 00:49:58,523
No, it's just that...

876
00:49:59,075 --> 00:50:01,000
this is not like farming.

877
00:50:02,060 --> 00:50:04,850
This is tricky.

878
00:50:04,875 --> 00:50:07,917
Tricky?
What kind of job is that in the city?

879
00:50:07,942 --> 00:50:10,010
When you can do it,
why can't we?

880
00:50:10,130 --> 00:50:11,010
Drink you tea.

881
00:50:11,121 --> 00:50:13,469
Dear, can you come in for a moment?

882
00:50:14,268 --> 00:50:16,445
This is my wife, Kanagambaram.

883
00:50:16,590 --> 00:50:17,890
She served us coffee.

884
00:50:17,915 --> 00:50:20,245
We use unrefined sugar.
It's good for your health.

885
00:50:20,270 --> 00:50:22,060
Drink up, I'll be back.

886
00:50:22,418 --> 00:50:24,588
Yes, my dear?

887
00:50:24,799 --> 00:50:25,929
Why did you call me in here?

888
00:50:26,136 --> 00:50:27,636
They have come here for help.

889
00:50:28,035 --> 00:50:30,140
They are not asking you
to support them.

890
00:50:30,196 --> 00:50:33,106
They just want you to show the ropes.

891
00:50:33,438 --> 00:50:35,719
We need our people, too.

892
00:50:39,478 --> 00:50:41,970
Your villagers have known you
since you were a baby.

893
00:50:41,995 --> 00:50:44,190
It's fine if they address you informally.

894
00:50:44,215 --> 00:50:47,351
But they call you by your old nickname,
Kozhukattai.

895
00:50:48,838 --> 00:50:50,243
Ask them to call you K.K.

896
00:50:50,268 --> 00:50:51,976
You are not my wife.

897
00:50:52,133 --> 00:50:53,173
You're my minister.

898
00:50:53,504 --> 00:50:56,430
Come, I want to crib about you to them.

899
00:50:56,455 --> 00:50:58,898
Don't act like you can cook.
Come!

900
00:51:03,745 --> 00:51:05,010
What are you looking at?

901
00:51:05,156 --> 00:51:06,951
We were discussing your job.

902
00:51:06,976 --> 00:51:08,992
Leave the empty glasses behind
and get ready.

903
00:51:12,609 --> 00:51:14,600
Why is it taking so long
for the unauthorized truck to arrive?

904
00:51:14,625 --> 00:51:16,455
It's been three hours.

905
00:51:20,680 --> 00:51:21,470
You...

906
00:51:23,360 --> 00:51:24,280
What's this for?

907
00:51:24,526 --> 00:51:27,760
I've got work clothes,
change of clothes, a blanket...

908
00:51:27,785 --> 00:51:29,695
I heard it gets cold out there.

909
00:51:30,390 --> 00:51:32,430
You don't even know
what your job there is.

910
00:51:32,455 --> 00:51:33,775
But you brought work clothes?

911
00:51:33,800 --> 00:51:35,800
Listen up, everyone.

912
00:51:35,825 --> 00:51:39,859
Clothes aren't important in our job.
Just carry two sets.

913
00:51:40,104 --> 00:51:41,854
Carry a blanket for the cold.

914
00:51:43,814 --> 00:51:46,850
225 rupees for the bus tickets.

915
00:51:46,875 --> 00:51:49,315
Leave behind everything else. Okay?
- Okay.

916
00:51:49,340 --> 00:51:52,010
If you need anything, K.K. will help.
- Okay!

917
00:51:52,035 --> 00:51:55,422
Kozhukattai is a nice name.
What's with this K.K. nonsense?

918
00:51:56,217 --> 00:51:57,837
Are you here just to
get on my nerves?

919
00:51:57,862 --> 00:51:59,612
I'll smash your face in
with a rock!

920
00:51:59,637 --> 00:52:02,137
Please don't go, Daddy!
- I'm just going to work, dear.

921
00:52:02,930 --> 00:52:04,220
Why are you crying?

922
00:52:04,245 --> 00:52:06,155
Your father isn't joining the army!
He is going to work.

923
00:52:06,180 --> 00:52:07,510
He will be back in two months.

924
00:52:07,535 --> 00:52:10,825
You should be happy your father
is getting a good job!

925
00:52:11,103 --> 00:52:12,893
They have finally come on-board.

926
00:52:13,180 --> 00:52:15,555
The vehicle is here.
Get ready, everyone.

927
00:52:15,580 --> 00:52:16,830
Soldiers, hurry up.

928
00:52:16,970 --> 00:52:18,550
Come on!

929
00:52:18,575 --> 00:52:20,115
You kept us waiting.

930
00:52:20,140 --> 00:52:22,140
Kozhukattai, we're going by truck?

931
00:52:22,165 --> 00:52:25,870
No, the first three kilometres by lorry.
Then we board the helicopter.

932
00:52:25,895 --> 00:52:27,315
Fine, then.
- Rascal!

933
00:52:27,340 --> 00:52:30,886
You climb trees for a living,
you want a helicopter?

934
00:52:30,911 --> 00:52:33,430
Stuff this vermin inside the diesel tank.

935
00:52:33,455 --> 00:52:36,578
I'll pick you with a stick
when we arrive at Bangalore. Go!

936
00:52:36,784 --> 00:52:39,244
Grandpa, what are you doing?

937
00:52:39,269 --> 00:52:42,300
Driver, release the ladder on this side.

938
00:52:42,325 --> 00:52:44,550
Hop on, people.

939
00:52:44,575 --> 00:52:46,720
Oldie, what are you doing?
- Trying to climb up.

940
00:52:46,745 --> 00:52:49,850
If you hold this rope,
you will be gone forever!

941
00:52:49,875 --> 00:52:52,325
Then our plans will be ruined.
Use the ladder.

942
00:52:52,350 --> 00:52:54,220
Come on up!

943
00:52:56,625 --> 00:52:57,930
Careful.

944
00:52:57,955 --> 00:52:59,600
Call me after you reach.

945
00:52:59,625 --> 00:53:00,625
Lift up the ladder.

946
00:53:01,825 --> 00:53:02,995
Wave to your wife!

947
00:54:04,995 --> 00:54:05,875
What?

948
00:54:06,948 --> 00:54:09,594
You were happy in the village
during tough times.

949
00:54:10,267 --> 00:54:11,807
We are going to earn money.

950
00:54:12,598 --> 00:54:13,978
You should be happy!

951
00:54:14,125 --> 00:54:14,915
Brother?

952
00:54:17,696 --> 00:54:18,656
Right.

953
00:54:19,291 --> 00:54:22,719
I too was destitute when
I left the village.

954
00:54:23,189 --> 00:54:24,609
I had no one.

955
00:54:25,525 --> 00:54:27,828
But all of you have me!

956
00:54:28,122 --> 00:54:30,300
You have nothing to worry about.

957
00:54:30,325 --> 00:54:31,930
Get it?

958
00:54:31,955 --> 00:54:33,140
Stop crying!

959
00:54:33,165 --> 00:54:34,035
Okay.

960
00:54:53,509 --> 00:54:56,720
You have come to the city
from a village.

961
00:54:56,753 --> 00:55:00,079
Be disciplined and send home
all the money you earn.

962
00:55:00,104 --> 00:55:03,760
What about accommodation?
- You can come and go as you please.

963
00:55:03,785 --> 00:55:04,785
Okay?

964
00:55:04,895 --> 00:55:06,000
One second...

965
00:55:07,081 --> 00:55:10,703
Sathish, I'm coming with
ten of our people...

966
00:55:11,089 --> 00:55:14,140
Please leave ten sets of
idly and dosa at the door.

967
00:55:14,165 --> 00:55:16,680
Money?
I'll write you a cheque in the morning.

968
00:55:16,705 --> 00:55:18,165
Wants money for his sour batter!

969
00:55:18,301 --> 00:55:20,050
It's not hot like our village out here.

970
00:55:20,075 --> 00:55:23,800
The days in Bangalore
are as cool as the nights.

971
00:55:23,825 --> 00:55:26,285
The only problem is they will
never give us any water.

972
00:55:26,310 --> 00:55:26,825
Why?

973
00:55:26,825 --> 00:55:30,742
They didn't give it to four generations
of Chief Ministers. You'll have no luck.

974
00:55:30,767 --> 00:55:31,807
Greetings, sir.

975
00:55:32,575 --> 00:55:35,220
This area in Banglore has maximum traffic.

976
00:55:35,245 --> 00:55:37,180
It's our hub.

977
00:55:37,205 --> 00:55:40,581
This is the Tamil's area.
But everything's written in Kannada.

978
00:55:40,606 --> 00:55:42,356
This is Sathish's tiffin stall.

979
00:55:42,588 --> 00:55:44,218
I pay him every month.

980
00:55:44,292 --> 00:55:45,815
That's the laundry shop.

981
00:55:45,840 --> 00:55:49,470
They will wash and press
your dirty clothes and bill you.

982
00:55:49,495 --> 00:55:52,299
Hello, K.K!

983
00:55:52,485 --> 00:55:53,855
Hello, Major!

984
00:55:53,880 --> 00:55:55,430
He is from Vellore.

985
00:55:55,518 --> 00:55:57,760
They are from my village.

986
00:55:57,785 --> 00:55:59,855
Nice. Welcome!

987
00:55:59,880 --> 00:56:03,720
Major has arranged for our accommodation.

988
00:56:03,745 --> 00:56:05,565
Is that so?
- He took money for it, too.

989
00:56:05,590 --> 00:56:07,180
Don't mention it.

990
00:56:07,205 --> 00:56:09,550
Get some sleep now.
Let's talk in the morning.

991
00:56:09,575 --> 00:56:12,220
Cover yourself with the blanket
and sleep, Major! - Goodbye.

992
00:56:12,245 --> 00:56:14,640
Why do you call him Major?

993
00:56:14,665 --> 00:56:19,010
He was a Major in the army.
He shot 13 people.

994
00:56:19,035 --> 00:56:22,640
Not at all.
He got piss drunk and shot our own people.

995
00:56:22,665 --> 00:56:24,875
That's why he's lying in a bed
on the streets.

996
00:56:27,190 --> 00:56:28,683
Did you eat well?

997
00:56:28,708 --> 00:56:29,868
Yes.

998
00:56:29,893 --> 00:56:33,178
You showed us around,
fed us a hearty meal.

999
00:56:33,203 --> 00:56:35,050
You have arranged for a place too.

1000
00:56:35,075 --> 00:56:36,470
Should I massage your feet too?

1001
00:56:36,495 --> 00:56:39,550
No, you still haven't told us
what the job is.

1002
00:56:39,575 --> 00:56:41,440
They want to know the job...

1003
00:56:42,260 --> 00:56:44,430
You have put your faith in me.

1004
00:56:44,455 --> 00:56:45,705
I won't let you down.

1005
00:56:48,212 --> 00:56:49,082
Okay.

1006
00:56:49,758 --> 00:56:52,470
I need all of you to
promise me something.

1007
00:56:52,495 --> 00:56:54,565
It's for our own safety.

1008
00:56:55,211 --> 00:56:58,284
Why are you looking at me that way?
I only asked for a promise.

1009
00:56:58,551 --> 00:57:00,315
I didn't ask for your possessions.

1010
00:57:01,228 --> 00:57:02,768
More importantly...

1011
00:57:03,605 --> 00:57:06,100
You shouldn't talk about this job
to anyone back home.

1012
00:57:06,125 --> 00:57:12,681
Mother, father, aunt, uncle,
wife, son, friend, distant relative...

1013
00:57:12,706 --> 00:57:14,155
I mean, nobody!

1014
00:57:14,180 --> 00:57:16,010
You don't breathe a word about it, okay?

1015
00:57:16,035 --> 00:57:18,018
Is it such a tough job?

1016
00:57:18,485 --> 00:57:20,600
It is quite tough.

1017
00:57:20,625 --> 00:57:24,850
Kozhukattai, we couldn't make a living
back home, we came with you to the city.

1018
00:57:24,875 --> 00:57:29,010
You and I are from the same place. We
will have the strength to do what you do.

1019
00:57:31,430 --> 00:57:33,430
Fine, we promise.

1020
00:57:33,455 --> 00:57:36,100
We won't talk about this job
to anyone in our village.

1021
00:57:36,125 --> 00:57:37,713
Tell us what the job is.

1022
00:57:42,276 --> 00:57:43,526
Tomorrow morning...

1023
00:57:44,597 --> 00:57:45,977
all of us...

1024
00:57:47,385 --> 00:57:48,305
Out with it!

1025
00:57:50,098 --> 00:57:51,308
We are going to ask for alms.

1026
00:57:52,200 --> 00:57:53,200
Alms?

1027
00:57:53,911 --> 00:57:55,659
What do you mean?

1028
00:57:57,905 --> 00:57:58,735
Alms.

1029
00:58:00,815 --> 00:58:01,895
Look.

1030
00:58:02,558 --> 00:58:05,800
We are going to hit every single place.
Roads, houses, and shops.

1031
00:58:05,825 --> 00:58:08,695
Bus stands, temples,
railway stations.

1032
00:58:08,720 --> 00:58:11,575
Our team should be present
in all the crowded places.

1033
00:58:11,600 --> 00:58:14,217
I will tell you the bus routes.

1034
00:58:14,242 --> 00:58:17,390
We assemble here in our bungalow
at 6 in the evening.

1035
00:58:17,415 --> 00:58:19,190
Get it, brother?

1036
00:58:20,399 --> 00:58:21,901
I'll explain in detail.

1037
00:58:22,578 --> 00:58:25,800
If we ask 10 people,
atleast 3 to 4 people will give us.

1038
00:58:25,825 --> 00:58:30,010
But we must treat all the customers
the same way, impartially.

1039
00:58:30,035 --> 00:58:30,930
Okay?

1040
00:58:30,955 --> 00:58:34,720
Those who don't help today,
will do so some other day.

1041
00:58:34,745 --> 00:58:36,720
Here's a trade secret.

1042
00:58:36,745 --> 00:58:40,463
You put on a sad face
in front of everyone.

1043
00:58:41,532 --> 00:58:42,532
Understood?

1044
00:58:43,502 --> 00:58:45,350
You are eligible.

1045
00:58:45,375 --> 00:58:48,850
My wife warned me
not to trust him and leave home.

1046
00:58:48,875 --> 00:58:51,800
We didn't clarify what the job is.
It's our mistake.

1047
00:58:51,902 --> 00:58:54,220
He told us not to carry any money either.

1048
00:58:54,307 --> 00:58:55,387
What do we do now?

1049
00:58:55,808 --> 00:58:56,848
What?

1050
00:58:57,188 --> 00:58:58,890
What's all this?

1051
00:58:58,915 --> 00:59:00,470
You don't like this job?

1052
00:59:00,495 --> 00:59:02,362
Talk straight.
What's the job?

1053
00:59:02,969 --> 00:59:03,839
Okay.

1054
00:59:04,043 --> 00:59:05,573
I'll talk straight.

1055
00:59:06,106 --> 00:59:07,606
A business with no investment.

1056
00:59:08,035 --> 00:59:09,035
Okay?

1057
00:59:09,190 --> 00:59:10,100
We walk around...

1058
00:59:10,125 --> 00:59:11,125
hold out our hands...

1059
00:59:11,165 --> 00:59:12,205
and seek charity.

1060
00:59:12,205 --> 00:59:14,720
I'm not asking you to steal or lie.

1061
00:59:14,745 --> 00:59:16,350
You just need to
tell them your problems.

1062
00:59:16,375 --> 00:59:17,220
You say...

1063
00:59:17,245 --> 00:59:18,550
"We haven't had any rains."

1064
00:59:18,575 --> 00:59:20,025
"The rivers are dry."

1065
00:59:20,050 --> 00:59:21,550
"We can't farm anymore."

1066
00:59:21,575 --> 00:59:23,375
"We can't survive in this world."

1067
00:59:23,415 --> 00:59:24,705
"Please help me!"

1068
00:59:24,745 --> 00:59:26,276
It's as simple as that.

1069
00:59:28,282 --> 00:59:29,948
You still don't get it?

1070
00:59:30,903 --> 00:59:32,863
Fine, I'll put it bluntly.

1071
00:59:33,196 --> 00:59:34,276
We are going to beg.

1072
00:59:35,806 --> 00:59:37,979
Is this even a job, jerk?

1073
00:59:39,090 --> 00:59:40,930
Murugesan, I'm like your elder brother!

1074
00:59:40,955 --> 00:59:42,753
I'll beat the hell out of you!
- What?

1075
00:59:42,946 --> 00:59:44,390
Beat the hell out of me?

1076
00:59:44,415 --> 00:59:47,571
You were real meek
when you came home asking for a job.

1077
00:59:47,596 --> 00:59:49,556
Now you're showing me your true colours.

1078
00:59:49,581 --> 00:59:52,121
They insult me!
- Kozhukattai!

1079
00:59:52,629 --> 00:59:55,338
I'm K.K. in this city.
- Screw that.

1080
00:59:56,106 --> 00:59:58,362
We were proud farmers in the village.

1081
00:59:59,005 --> 01:00:01,375
We came to you for help,
and you make us do this?

1082
01:00:01,400 --> 01:00:03,850
What did you accomplish
by farming?

1083
01:00:03,875 --> 01:00:05,050
Sit down, baldie!

1084
01:00:05,075 --> 01:00:05,955
What?

1085
01:00:05,995 --> 01:00:09,245
I shouldn't have trusted a man
who grew fat by eating from stolen money!

1086
01:00:09,285 --> 01:00:10,640
Get lost, then.

1087
01:00:10,665 --> 01:00:11,665
Please sit!

1088
01:00:12,284 --> 01:00:15,072
Be quiet, Vellai.
This is our predicament now.

1089
01:00:15,097 --> 01:00:16,687
But it won't always be this way.

1090
01:00:17,140 --> 01:00:19,680
You father blew up all his wealth
to his mistress...

1091
01:00:19,705 --> 01:00:21,875
and died empty-handed
with nothing to his name.

1092
01:00:22,075 --> 01:00:25,510
And his son lost the house by stealing,
and is now begging in the city.

1093
01:00:25,535 --> 01:00:27,338
Be quiet.
- We had everything there.

1094
01:00:28,903 --> 01:00:30,203
What do you have?

1095
01:00:30,325 --> 01:00:31,825
You only have debts to repay!

1096
01:00:31,850 --> 01:00:34,140
Yes, my father left everything
to his mistress.

1097
01:00:34,165 --> 01:00:36,253
It was his money,
not your bloody father's.

1098
01:00:36,278 --> 01:00:38,665
Don't be disrespectful!
- I'm being disrespectful?

1099
01:00:38,705 --> 01:00:41,825
You married a girl without a brother
and mooch off of your in-laws.

1100
01:00:41,850 --> 01:00:43,760
Don't!
- Don't what?

1101
01:00:44,220 --> 01:00:47,100
You take money from your wife
and smile at her mother.

1102
01:00:47,125 --> 01:00:49,428
What did you say?

1103
01:00:49,453 --> 01:00:51,283
He got angry at the mention
of his mother-in-law.

1104
01:00:51,308 --> 01:00:54,228
You brought us out here
just to humiliate us. - You can't hit!

1105
01:00:54,745 --> 01:00:56,745
I suspect foul-play
in his father-in-law's death.

1106
01:00:56,785 --> 01:00:58,651
We went to him for help.

1107
01:00:59,300 --> 01:01:02,470
He is trying to help in his own way
though we humiliated him.

1108
01:01:02,596 --> 01:01:04,306
We can choose to do it,
or go back home.

1109
01:01:06,712 --> 01:01:08,470
Money from dog trade
doesn't bark.

1110
01:01:08,495 --> 01:01:10,035
Money from fish trade
doesn't stink.

1111
01:01:10,705 --> 01:01:13,260
It doesn't matter how we earn,
but we need money now!

1112
01:01:13,285 --> 01:01:14,970
How could you say that?

1113
01:01:14,995 --> 01:01:16,050
What, then?

1114
01:01:16,075 --> 01:01:18,375
Stop talking or I'll stick the candle
up your nose.

1115
01:01:18,400 --> 01:01:20,400
Learn from him
and keep your mouth shut!

1116
01:01:20,978 --> 01:01:22,308
Look at his ugly nose.

1117
01:01:22,924 --> 01:01:25,470
Don't quarrel when we have travelled
in search of a livelihood.

1118
01:01:25,495 --> 01:01:27,815
It could end badly.

1119
01:01:31,398 --> 01:01:32,478
Look...

1120
01:01:33,106 --> 01:01:39,010
I wanted my fellow villagers to make money
and support their family.

1121
01:01:40,101 --> 01:01:43,784
If you are going to hold onto your pride,
you can never pay back your debts.

1122
01:01:44,422 --> 01:01:45,792
Take up this job.

1123
01:01:46,105 --> 01:01:48,025
Then get to know a few people.

1124
01:01:48,244 --> 01:01:50,338
And then you can find other jobs.

1125
01:01:51,587 --> 01:01:55,292
I swear, my intention wasn't
to humiliate any of you.

1126
01:01:55,910 --> 01:01:57,460
If any of you felt that way...

1127
01:01:58,101 --> 01:01:59,301
forgive me.

1128
01:02:00,687 --> 01:02:02,887
I'm dizzy from that slap.

1129
01:02:03,003 --> 01:02:04,093
I will go to bed.

1130
01:02:04,205 --> 01:02:09,050
If any of you change your mind,
I'll guide you.

1131
01:02:09,075 --> 01:02:10,140
I'm off.

1132
01:02:10,165 --> 01:02:13,495
Serves me right for helping...
- He's like your brother, don't mind him.

1133
01:02:13,520 --> 01:02:14,610
Be quiet.

1134
01:02:14,745 --> 01:02:17,205
This is the only honest job
in the world.

1135
01:02:17,230 --> 01:02:19,800
Where will he find a more
dignified job?

1136
01:02:19,825 --> 01:02:21,713
Why are you crying?

1137
01:02:22,356 --> 01:02:23,406
No!

1138
01:02:24,065 --> 01:02:26,195
If our villagers found out
that I begged...

1139
01:02:26,955 --> 01:02:29,057
how will I ever face them?

1140
01:02:31,494 --> 01:02:32,704
I have a daughter.

1141
01:02:33,783 --> 01:02:37,493
Who would marry a beggar's daughter?

1142
01:02:37,932 --> 01:02:39,562
I've got two daughters!

1143
01:02:40,130 --> 01:02:42,987
We can't let our pride
bring our children out to the streets.

1144
01:02:44,113 --> 01:02:47,073
Just earn some money
and even God will respect you.

1145
01:02:47,323 --> 01:02:49,565
Getting your daughters married
is no big deal.

1146
01:02:49,590 --> 01:02:51,640
If you can't, we will get them married.

1147
01:02:52,089 --> 01:02:54,448
He slapped me,
but he's crying?

1148
01:02:56,581 --> 01:02:57,541
What?

1149
01:02:58,402 --> 01:03:00,854
He made beggars out of us
and went to sleep!

1150
01:03:01,855 --> 01:03:02,945
He didn't.

1151
01:03:04,304 --> 01:03:05,815
So many others did.

1152
01:03:06,715 --> 01:03:09,557
He just made us realize
what we have become.

1153
01:03:11,510 --> 01:03:12,510
Phew!

1154
01:03:14,215 --> 01:03:17,292
Only now have you realised
who you really are.

1155
01:03:21,820 --> 01:03:25,565
Lord of Alms!
Bless me with a good collection.

1156
01:03:36,054 --> 01:03:37,394
Where are the others?

1157
01:03:37,419 --> 01:03:39,135
They left in the morning.

1158
01:03:39,409 --> 01:03:42,190
Wise men.
They listened to KK's advice and left.

1159
01:03:42,215 --> 01:03:45,020
You haven't left yet?
- We must leave. We need money.

1160
01:03:45,045 --> 01:03:46,215
Money?

1161
01:03:46,240 --> 01:03:47,585
So you have decided.

1162
01:03:47,625 --> 01:03:51,545
I will even beg,
but not borrow.

1163
01:03:51,545 --> 01:03:54,255
I will give you money
after my day's work, you can go home.

1164
01:03:54,287 --> 01:03:56,270
I'll order food for you both.

1165
01:03:56,295 --> 01:03:57,545
We don't need food.

1166
01:03:57,585 --> 01:03:59,795
Then let it be.
I'll eat it at night.

1167
01:03:59,823 --> 01:04:02,125
You can't afford a meal,
but you have so much pride.

1168
01:04:02,215 --> 01:04:04,175
Boys and girls, what about you?

1169
01:04:05,335 --> 01:04:07,505
Good. You are part of KK's army.

1170
01:04:07,748 --> 01:04:09,503
Spit on their faces
and come with me.

1171
01:04:09,625 --> 01:04:10,425
Go on.

1172
01:04:10,465 --> 01:04:12,755
I'll transform you into beggars.

1173
01:04:13,105 --> 01:04:16,270
Namaste, Major!
- Hello, KK. Off to work?

1174
01:04:16,295 --> 01:04:17,548
Yes, with the new appointees.

1175
01:04:17,573 --> 01:04:21,005
Don't let the old people slog in the heat.
Give them a spot in the shade.

1176
01:04:21,045 --> 01:04:22,835
Then we must seat them inside your shop.

1177
01:04:22,875 --> 01:04:26,425
Old people are like Gods.
We must treat them right.

1178
01:04:26,450 --> 01:04:27,700
Don't worry, Major.

1179
01:04:27,725 --> 01:04:31,307
I will adorn both their photos
and pray to them.

1180
01:04:31,335 --> 01:04:32,965
Give me the parcel.
Idlies again?

1181
01:04:33,795 --> 01:04:34,585
Here.

1182
01:04:37,101 --> 01:04:37,851
Here, Auntie.

1183
01:04:38,763 --> 01:04:39,683
So, Auntie?

1184
01:04:40,265 --> 01:04:43,112
Do you feel bad about begging
with the hands that harvested crops?

1185
01:04:43,137 --> 01:04:46,315
I don't have an option.
My only son is dead too.

1186
01:04:46,340 --> 01:04:50,190
I need to look after my daughter-in-law
and grandchildren at any cost.

1187
01:04:50,215 --> 01:04:52,215
God will open His eyes.

1188
01:04:52,312 --> 01:04:54,440
God won't open his eyes.

1189
01:04:54,465 --> 01:04:56,310
He will send someone like me
in his stead.

1190
01:04:56,335 --> 01:04:59,034
That's our address.
- Fine.

1191
01:04:59,286 --> 01:05:02,737
You must finish collection in all the areas
I had mentioned before 6pm.

1192
01:05:02,910 --> 01:05:05,850
You should come to this address
after 6pm.

1193
01:05:05,875 --> 01:05:07,060
Okay?
- I'll see you.

1194
01:05:07,085 --> 01:05:08,799
Walk that way.

1195
01:05:10,132 --> 01:05:11,592
Started begging already!

1196
01:05:11,617 --> 01:05:13,207
It's your first day,
so the collections might be low.

1197
01:05:13,232 --> 01:05:14,522
Don't lose heart.

1198
01:05:14,553 --> 01:05:16,893
It will be 6pm by the time
they walk there.

1199
01:05:17,176 --> 01:05:18,810
Sathish!
- Yes?

1200
01:05:18,835 --> 01:05:20,295
Two of them are still upstairs.

1201
01:05:20,320 --> 01:05:22,465
If they ask for food,
give it to them.

1202
01:05:22,505 --> 01:05:23,190
Sure.

1203
01:05:23,215 --> 01:05:26,893
Your trade is booming.
I know I'll get my money.

1204
01:05:27,105 --> 01:05:29,520
Only he respects my profession.

1205
01:05:29,545 --> 01:05:31,295
I should get him
on the team soon.

1206
01:05:57,889 --> 01:06:01,400
Sir, please help me out.
I don't have money to return home.

1207
01:06:01,425 --> 01:06:02,875
Are you Tamilian?
- Yes, sir.

1208
01:06:04,702 --> 01:06:05,792
God bless you.

1209
01:06:10,425 --> 01:06:11,690
Hello.

1210
01:06:11,715 --> 01:06:13,480
I'm looking or a job.

1211
01:06:13,505 --> 01:06:15,729
No vacancies, sir.
Please go out.

1212
01:06:25,528 --> 01:06:28,151
No job for Tamils here.
Get out.

1213
01:06:34,591 --> 01:06:35,770
Careful! Watch it.

1214
01:06:35,795 --> 01:06:36,925
Watch it, man.

1215
01:06:40,785 --> 01:06:41,724
Let's go.

1216
01:06:41,749 --> 01:06:42,919
Sir?
- Thanks!

1217
01:07:03,402 --> 01:07:04,480
Leave!

1218
01:07:04,505 --> 01:07:05,795
Get out of here.

1219
01:07:06,480 --> 01:07:08,520
Pick up your stuff
and leave.

1220
01:07:08,545 --> 01:07:10,635
Clean it up properly.

1221
01:07:16,013 --> 01:07:18,401
I need money to buy a earpiece.

1222
01:07:20,590 --> 01:07:22,460
You don't have money,
why do you need a phone?

1223
01:07:22,686 --> 01:07:23,856
I'm hurt.

1224
01:07:29,069 --> 01:07:30,659
I'm hurt.

1225
01:07:30,684 --> 01:07:32,314
Please!

1226
01:07:34,812 --> 01:07:35,885
Thank you.

1227
01:07:57,974 --> 01:07:59,792
You are going to work.

1228
01:07:59,953 --> 01:08:04,650
We will study hard, get good jobs,
and take care of Mom and you.

1229
01:08:04,675 --> 01:08:06,045
Don't worry, Dad.

1230
01:08:06,788 --> 01:08:07,748
Hey!

1231
01:08:08,295 --> 01:08:09,295
Come here.

1232
01:08:13,168 --> 01:08:13,878
Sir?

1233
01:08:14,097 --> 01:08:16,350
You've been sitting here for a while.
Who are you?

1234
01:08:16,375 --> 01:08:17,585
I'm looking for a job.

1235
01:08:17,610 --> 01:08:18,410
What?

1236
01:08:18,498 --> 01:08:20,730
I'm looking for a job.
- Oh. You're a Tamilian?

1237
01:08:20,755 --> 01:08:21,875
You can't sit here.

1238
01:08:21,900 --> 01:08:24,230
I've received a complaint
since you are new here.

1239
01:08:24,255 --> 01:08:26,375
There's a CCTV camera there.
See?

1240
01:08:26,591 --> 01:08:28,091
You can't loiter in this area.

1241
01:08:28,451 --> 01:08:29,281
Go.

1242
01:08:29,306 --> 01:08:30,346
Walk!

1243
01:09:14,125 --> 01:09:14,925
Ma'am?

1244
01:09:15,692 --> 01:09:17,003
Anyone home?

1245
01:09:18,506 --> 01:09:19,296
Sir?

1246
01:09:20,113 --> 01:09:20,903
What?

1247
01:09:21,201 --> 01:09:22,031
Who is it?

1248
01:09:23,521 --> 01:09:24,731
Greetings.
- What do you want?

1249
01:09:25,085 --> 01:09:27,335
Sir, let me pluck those coconuts
from the trees.

1250
01:09:27,505 --> 01:09:29,045
Can you pay me some wages?

1251
01:09:32,425 --> 01:09:35,230
I'll pluck all the coconuts,
and clean up the place.

1252
01:09:35,255 --> 01:09:37,557
You can pay me
after I finish the work.

1253
01:09:37,910 --> 01:09:39,450
Please give me something.
I'm starving.

1254
01:09:40,941 --> 01:09:42,112
I'm a farmer.

1255
01:09:43,045 --> 01:09:44,755
What is he saying?
I can't understand.

1256
01:09:44,795 --> 01:09:45,625
Let's go.

1257
01:09:45,820 --> 01:09:46,700
Sir...

1258
01:09:47,683 --> 01:09:49,843
Grandpa, he is speaking in Tamil.

1259
01:09:49,910 --> 01:09:52,771
He said he will snatch coconuts...

1260
01:09:52,796 --> 01:09:54,256
and we can pay him.

1261
01:09:55,683 --> 01:09:58,310
He said he is very hungry.

1262
01:09:58,335 --> 01:09:59,625
You know Tamil?

1263
01:09:59,715 --> 01:10:00,795
I cannot speak.

1264
01:10:00,974 --> 01:10:02,635
But I can understand.

1265
01:10:02,779 --> 01:10:05,730
Because I have Tamil friends
in my class.

1266
01:10:05,755 --> 01:10:07,190
Oh, very good!

1267
01:10:07,215 --> 01:10:11,206
Grandpa, he said he is a farmer too.

1268
01:10:14,796 --> 01:10:15,909
Hello, farmer!

1269
01:10:18,675 --> 01:10:19,838
Mr. Farmer!

1270
01:10:20,808 --> 01:10:21,598
Sir?

1271
01:10:21,732 --> 01:10:22,482
Come!

1272
01:10:45,492 --> 01:10:47,600
Keep it.
This is your hard-earned money.

1273
01:10:47,625 --> 01:10:49,295
You worked hard
and did a good job.

1274
01:10:49,531 --> 01:10:50,823
Do something.

1275
01:10:51,363 --> 01:10:52,693
Give me your address.

1276
01:10:53,104 --> 01:10:54,487
I have a lot of friends.

1277
01:10:54,787 --> 01:10:56,747
I will recommend you to them, okay?

1278
01:10:56,902 --> 01:10:58,402
I don't understand what you're saying.

1279
01:10:58,427 --> 01:11:01,020
But I can tell that you are
trying to help. Thank you.

1280
01:11:01,045 --> 01:11:01,835
No problem.

1281
01:11:02,952 --> 01:11:04,520
You bought vegetables?

1282
01:11:04,545 --> 01:11:06,520
Yes, we must cook.

1283
01:11:06,545 --> 01:11:08,690
That's why it's great to have
a mother around.

1284
01:11:09,941 --> 01:11:11,061
Sir.
- What?

1285
01:11:11,458 --> 01:11:13,620
You will become the next KK.
- Thank you.

1286
01:11:14,644 --> 01:11:15,963
Lazy idiots.

1287
01:11:16,230 --> 01:11:17,480
What did you do all day?

1288
01:11:17,505 --> 01:11:19,620
What could we do?
We were lying down all day.

1289
01:11:20,513 --> 01:11:22,831
Aren't you ashamed to say that?

1290
01:11:23,045 --> 01:11:24,625
You've wasted a whole day.

1291
01:11:26,104 --> 01:11:27,690
Natesan hasn't eaten all day.

1292
01:11:27,715 --> 01:11:28,965
Who? Him?

1293
01:11:29,112 --> 01:11:31,980
Did he ask you to tell me that?
To melt my heart?

1294
01:11:32,005 --> 01:11:34,125
He doesn't look starved.

1295
01:11:34,425 --> 01:11:35,965
Here is the money.
Get going.

1296
01:11:35,990 --> 01:11:39,284
Don't tell anyone what we do here
when you go home.

1297
01:11:40,492 --> 01:11:43,190
It's one's thoughts that gives him a life.

1298
01:11:43,215 --> 01:11:46,690
When I came to this city,
this was the job that fed me.

1299
01:11:46,715 --> 01:11:48,005
A few strangers gave me money.

1300
01:11:48,045 --> 01:11:49,925
I said I was hungry.
They fed me.

1301
01:11:50,151 --> 01:11:53,310
Maybe this is the only job
that would suit my face.

1302
01:11:53,335 --> 01:11:54,925
That's why I stuck to it.

1303
01:11:54,950 --> 01:11:56,200
I have no shame in that!

1304
01:11:57,740 --> 01:12:02,471
Half the people begging out here
were farmers like you who got cheated.

1305
01:12:04,128 --> 01:12:07,823
The other half are begging
because of their children.

1306
01:12:08,620 --> 01:12:10,995
They don't do it by choice.

1307
01:12:11,230 --> 01:12:12,770
They need to save their lives.

1308
01:12:12,795 --> 01:12:14,980
And the lives of the people
dependent on them.

1309
01:12:15,005 --> 01:12:16,520
That is why they beg.

1310
01:12:16,545 --> 01:12:17,925
Please understand that!

1311
01:12:18,167 --> 01:12:20,596
I brought you out here
only to help you.

1312
01:12:20,827 --> 01:12:23,650
If I hurt your self respect...

1313
01:12:23,675 --> 01:12:24,835
forgive me.

1314
01:12:25,246 --> 01:12:28,060
Don't utter big words, son.

1315
01:12:28,085 --> 01:12:31,362
A person with helpful nature
is equivalent to God.

1316
01:12:32,339 --> 01:12:34,310
We did what he said...

1317
01:12:34,335 --> 01:12:37,850
and we made 150 rupees each today.

1318
01:12:37,875 --> 01:12:41,350
But unlike us,
you don't need to do this job.

1319
01:12:41,375 --> 01:12:44,259
This is a big city
full of opportunities.

1320
01:12:44,284 --> 01:12:46,440
I'm sure you can find other jobs.

1321
01:12:46,465 --> 01:12:47,560
Yes, Natesan...

1322
01:12:47,585 --> 01:12:50,850
We found jobs for ourselves,
and made 200 rupees each.

1323
01:12:50,875 --> 01:12:52,730
You should postpone
your travel plans.

1324
01:12:52,755 --> 01:12:54,600
Murugan, let them leave.

1325
01:12:54,625 --> 01:12:55,505
Get going.

1326
01:12:56,450 --> 01:12:59,060
Go back to farming
and deeper in debt.

1327
01:12:59,085 --> 01:13:00,940
We will reach home
and return your money.

1328
01:13:00,965 --> 01:13:03,350
You don't need to return it.
It's your money.

1329
01:13:03,375 --> 01:13:06,520
I made this money with the seal
from yesterday.

1330
01:13:06,545 --> 01:13:08,182
You can keep this.

1331
01:13:08,401 --> 01:13:11,520
Guys, postpone your return.

1332
01:13:11,545 --> 01:13:14,375
Yes, you should postpone it.

1333
01:13:14,690 --> 01:13:16,480
There is a lot of work
for a farmer in this city.

1334
01:13:16,505 --> 01:13:18,409
Why is he carrying a spade and plough?

1335
01:13:19,380 --> 01:13:21,900
What job did you do?

1336
01:13:21,925 --> 01:13:23,465
You're carrying a spade and plough.

1337
01:13:23,505 --> 01:13:24,625
I'll tell you, Auntie.

1338
01:13:25,377 --> 01:13:28,463
How many times will you count the money?

1339
01:13:29,490 --> 01:13:31,810
We must keep track
of our income.

1340
01:13:31,835 --> 01:13:32,810
Wow!

1341
01:13:32,835 --> 01:13:33,715
Correct.

1342
01:13:34,207 --> 01:13:36,350
Only he is following my footsteps.

1343
01:13:36,375 --> 01:13:39,045
I knew he was going to be the next KK.

1344
01:13:39,425 --> 01:13:40,585
Well done.
- Don't flatter me.

1345
01:13:40,617 --> 01:13:42,037
My bad. Get lost.

1346
01:13:44,276 --> 01:13:46,799
Everyone has reached safe.

1347
01:13:49,231 --> 01:13:50,731
They have all found jobs.

1348
01:13:51,086 --> 01:13:52,385
They work in the shade!

1349
01:13:52,410 --> 01:13:55,150
They have promised to send money
once they have saved enough.

1350
01:13:55,175 --> 01:13:58,698
We should go pay off the bank loan
and tell them never to come back here.

1351
01:13:59,675 --> 01:14:02,432
Most of them have run away
from the village fearing you.

1352
01:14:02,827 --> 01:14:06,650
The few people left here are ones
who didn't borrow money from you.

1353
01:14:06,675 --> 01:14:08,807
Sir, what do we do now?

1354
01:14:09,092 --> 01:14:13,980
Well, what did we do to those who
borrowed crores and fled the country?

1355
01:14:14,005 --> 01:14:16,255
Sir, these are proud people.

1356
01:14:16,255 --> 01:14:18,730
They will repay your loans
before they die.

1357
01:14:18,755 --> 01:14:20,005
I'll see you.
- Bye.

1358
01:14:22,620 --> 01:14:25,456
Sir, we can say something
and handle our manager.

1359
01:14:25,900 --> 01:14:29,810
But how are we going to handle
the Regional Manager at the Zonal Meeting?

1360
01:14:29,835 --> 01:14:31,255
Tell that woman to try collecting.

1361
01:14:31,280 --> 01:14:32,530
Hello, sir.

1362
01:14:32,982 --> 01:14:34,770
What are you doing here?

1363
01:14:34,795 --> 01:14:38,268
If the family of the dead man see you,
there will be trouble. Leave.

1364
01:14:38,466 --> 01:14:40,386
I'm leaving, sir.
- We are just leaving.

1365
01:14:40,950 --> 01:14:42,901
Don't stand here.
Leave.

1366
01:14:43,279 --> 01:14:46,810
He's dressed in white and white,
but has borrowed lakhs in loan.

1367
01:14:46,835 --> 01:14:49,690
Get our men to collect
the repayment from him first.

1368
01:14:49,715 --> 01:14:50,625
Fools.

1369
01:14:50,650 --> 01:14:52,270
Really?
- Get in the car.

1370
01:14:52,295 --> 01:14:54,900
They want us to collect
from people who have nothing.

1371
01:14:54,925 --> 01:14:56,721
All this bad karma
will be carried by us.

1372
01:15:05,627 --> 01:15:07,229
Mr. Farmer!

1373
01:15:17,804 --> 01:15:19,682
Who are you?

1374
01:15:19,988 --> 01:15:20,948
He is a Tamilian.

1375
01:15:21,386 --> 01:15:22,676
Sir, I'm just like him.

1376
01:15:22,795 --> 01:15:23,835
Get lost.

1377
01:15:24,013 --> 01:15:25,878
What are you doing here?

1378
01:15:26,005 --> 01:15:28,560
We hardly have any water
here from River Cauvery...

1379
01:15:28,585 --> 01:15:30,215
What the hell
have you come for?

1380
01:15:30,505 --> 01:15:31,229
Get lost!

1381
01:15:31,254 --> 01:15:32,690
I said, run.

1382
01:15:32,715 --> 01:15:33,965
Don't hit us, sir.

1383
01:15:34,005 --> 01:15:34,965
Please!

1384
01:15:35,005 --> 01:15:37,526
Let's run away, man.
- Don't hit us!

1385
01:15:37,551 --> 01:15:39,715
You are spoiling the image
of all your people.

1386
01:15:39,755 --> 01:15:41,585
I'm spoiling the image?
Get lost.

1387
01:15:44,505 --> 01:15:45,545
Wait!

1388
01:15:45,651 --> 01:15:46,900
What happened?

1389
01:15:46,925 --> 01:15:48,465
They are chasing us.

1390
01:15:48,490 --> 01:15:49,530
Look, it's them.

1391
01:15:49,715 --> 01:15:51,480
Count the money.
- Look there...

1392
01:15:51,505 --> 01:15:52,675
You are bleeding!

1393
01:15:52,795 --> 01:15:54,505
They beat us up.

1394
01:15:54,545 --> 01:15:56,835
Their whole gang is here.
- We will sort them out later.

1395
01:15:57,458 --> 01:15:59,159
Brother! Ganesha!

1396
01:15:59,436 --> 01:16:00,476
Let's go the other way.

1397
01:16:01,121 --> 01:16:02,291
Come on, guys.

1398
01:16:02,546 --> 01:16:04,440
We have come here to earn a living.
We must adjust.

1399
01:16:04,465 --> 01:16:07,549
Why is he wearing glasses?
- To hide his eye infection. Quiet.

1400
01:16:09,796 --> 01:16:11,049
KK!
- What?

1401
01:16:11,074 --> 01:16:12,730
Do you have any clothes for laundry?

1402
01:16:12,755 --> 01:16:15,425
We don't have any.
Spare us some old clothes if you can!

1403
01:16:15,450 --> 01:16:17,045
He is making fun of us!

1404
01:16:17,070 --> 01:16:19,520
When have farmers worn
pressed clothes?

1405
01:16:19,545 --> 01:16:21,325
We only have our loincloths!

1406
01:16:21,350 --> 01:16:22,940
Soon, you will strip us
off that too!

1407
01:16:22,965 --> 01:16:24,425
Major, give that to me.

1408
01:16:25,199 --> 01:16:26,931
1300 rupees.

1409
01:16:26,956 --> 01:16:28,366
30 rupees extra for you.

1410
01:16:30,683 --> 01:16:32,013
I told you...

1411
01:16:32,375 --> 01:16:33,795
Major gives us
some extra money!

1412
01:16:33,820 --> 01:16:35,240
That's how you butter him up!

1413
01:16:36,362 --> 01:16:38,400
How do you not have
any coins in your box?

1414
01:16:38,425 --> 01:16:41,706
I do whatever jobs I can find.
Household work, gardening etc.

1415
01:16:42,894 --> 01:16:44,230
Well done, farmer.

1416
01:16:44,255 --> 01:16:45,715
There is 1200 rupees in it.

1417
01:16:47,576 --> 01:16:49,292
1200, right?

1418
01:16:49,878 --> 01:16:53,010
Major, I heard you got drunk
and went wild last night?

1419
01:16:54,949 --> 01:16:57,060
Major, I need change
for 20,000 rupees.

1420
01:16:57,085 --> 01:17:00,003
Wait for a few minutes.
I'm getting change from them.

1421
01:17:00,185 --> 01:17:01,145
Here.

1422
01:17:01,295 --> 01:17:02,625
20 rupees extra.

1423
01:17:02,999 --> 01:17:03,959
No thanks.

1424
01:17:04,175 --> 01:17:05,270
Who are these people?

1425
01:17:05,295 --> 01:17:07,706
They are contract labourers from Tanjore.

1426
01:17:07,885 --> 01:17:10,457
Next time they come here,
can you call me?

1427
01:17:10,482 --> 01:17:11,479
Sure.

1428
01:17:13,215 --> 01:17:14,425
Well done, farmer.

1429
01:17:14,771 --> 01:17:16,520
Don't be ashamed
to do any job.

1430
01:17:16,545 --> 01:17:18,310
If you can't find any job...

1431
01:17:18,335 --> 01:17:20,465
don't be ashamed
to do KK's job either.

1432
01:17:21,425 --> 01:17:22,755
He is only collecting alms.

1433
01:17:22,795 --> 01:17:26,675
The people who drove you away from home
are the ones who should be really ashamed.

1434
01:17:26,732 --> 01:17:30,772
This is your way of getting back
at the nation by humiliating them.

1435
01:17:31,086 --> 01:17:33,612
It's not going to solve anything!

1436
01:17:33,770 --> 01:17:35,560
People who don't respect farming...

1437
01:17:35,585 --> 01:17:38,770
will end up with plastic rice
and vegetables.

1438
01:17:38,795 --> 01:17:42,792
Their food is going to be loaded
with toxic chemicals...

1439
01:17:42,903 --> 01:17:44,653
and they will fall sick
to new diseases.

1440
01:17:46,175 --> 01:17:49,980
All the big shops pay him a commission
to get loose change.

1441
01:17:50,005 --> 01:17:51,675
He gives that commission to us!

1442
01:17:51,715 --> 01:17:53,600
I can't come inside this post office.

1443
01:17:53,625 --> 01:17:57,560
You go in, send the money order,
and come out quietly.

1444
01:17:57,585 --> 01:18:00,270
This is the first time
we are sending money home.

1445
01:18:00,295 --> 01:18:01,835
You need to help us.

1446
01:18:01,860 --> 01:18:03,862
You must know someone who works there.

1447
01:18:04,045 --> 01:18:05,190
I know someone.

1448
01:18:05,215 --> 01:18:06,900
But I will be in trouble
if he sees me.

1449
01:18:06,925 --> 01:18:07,965
What trouble?

1450
01:18:09,917 --> 01:18:11,299
O Generous One!

1451
01:18:12,625 --> 01:18:13,625
Sir...

1452
01:18:14,192 --> 01:18:16,812
What are you doing at the bus stand
without any money? Here, take this.

1453
01:18:16,837 --> 01:18:18,350
He pretends to get a phone call!

1454
01:18:18,375 --> 01:18:19,215
Sir...

1455
01:18:19,894 --> 01:18:20,894
This guy?

1456
01:18:21,402 --> 01:18:23,522
Mother Mary!
Thank you.

1457
01:18:24,335 --> 01:18:25,255
Sir...

1458
01:18:25,280 --> 01:18:26,070
Hi!

1459
01:18:26,279 --> 01:18:27,690
This guy?

1460
01:18:27,715 --> 01:18:28,795
I'm not taking anything.

1461
01:18:28,820 --> 01:18:30,450
Hi! Is he your father?

1462
01:18:30,949 --> 01:18:31,900
Thanks.

1463
01:18:31,925 --> 01:18:34,925
Dear, even he doesn't respect you!

1464
01:18:36,295 --> 01:18:38,100
Give me some alms, sir.

1465
01:18:38,125 --> 01:18:40,348
You look like healthy.

1466
01:18:40,373 --> 01:18:41,900
Why can't you
take up some job?

1467
01:18:41,925 --> 01:18:43,545
Just shut it
and give me some money!

1468
01:18:44,471 --> 01:18:45,591
Looks like an alien doll!

1469
01:18:45,625 --> 01:18:46,585
Get lost!

1470
01:18:47,117 --> 01:18:48,077
Sir...

1471
01:18:49,895 --> 01:18:51,400
Not taking anything from him!

1472
01:18:51,425 --> 01:18:52,255
Sir...

1473
01:18:52,402 --> 01:18:54,424
Even a beggar refuses to
take money from you?

1474
01:18:55,732 --> 01:18:56,652
Beggar!

1475
01:18:57,097 --> 01:18:58,097
Stop.

1476
01:18:58,426 --> 01:19:00,432
Are you insulting me?
- Of course!

1477
01:19:04,379 --> 01:19:05,459
One, two...

1478
01:19:05,925 --> 01:19:06,625
three.

1479
01:19:06,675 --> 01:19:07,505
Here you go.

1480
01:19:10,022 --> 01:19:11,354
That's better!

1481
01:19:12,328 --> 01:19:14,020
That gentlemen works here?

1482
01:19:14,045 --> 01:19:15,045
In this office.

1483
01:19:15,300 --> 01:19:18,643
Kozhukattai, you go overboard!
- Yeah?

1484
01:19:20,053 --> 01:19:22,096
He insulted me
in front of my wife!

1485
01:19:22,367 --> 01:19:24,957
Hello, sir!
I was just talking about us.

1486
01:19:24,982 --> 01:19:26,770
You can't beg here.

1487
01:19:26,795 --> 01:19:28,730
Sir, when have I ever asked you?

1488
01:19:28,755 --> 01:19:31,755
You five it to me on your own.
- Don't piss him off!

1489
01:19:31,875 --> 01:19:33,270
Just find a way in.

1490
01:19:33,295 --> 01:19:34,850
Sir, please forgive him
for our sake.

1491
01:19:34,875 --> 01:19:36,150
We aren't here to beg.

1492
01:19:36,175 --> 01:19:37,730
We want to send money home.

1493
01:19:37,817 --> 01:19:38,857
Send money?

1494
01:19:38,882 --> 01:19:41,432
I'm half-Tamilian,
and he insults me!

1495
01:19:41,780 --> 01:19:43,620
Why would you do that?

1496
01:19:43,645 --> 01:19:45,940
Do you people
do the same job as him?

1497
01:19:45,965 --> 01:19:46,925
No, sir.

1498
01:19:46,973 --> 01:19:48,473
We do household work.

1499
01:19:48,893 --> 01:19:50,143
Manual labour.

1500
01:19:50,295 --> 01:19:51,715
We do any job we get.

1501
01:19:51,740 --> 01:19:53,101
If we can't find any job...

1502
01:19:53,126 --> 01:19:54,545
they just sit at home!

1503
01:19:56,100 --> 01:19:58,060
We need to take care of our families.

1504
01:19:59,482 --> 01:20:00,940
Where are you from?

1505
01:20:00,965 --> 01:20:02,875
Chaturvedi Mangalam near Tanjore.

1506
01:20:03,263 --> 01:20:04,933
We are farmers.

1507
01:20:05,198 --> 01:20:06,488
We got no rains.

1508
01:20:06,699 --> 01:20:08,307
The rivers are dry.

1509
01:20:08,553 --> 01:20:10,060
The earth is parched too.

1510
01:20:10,085 --> 01:20:13,088
What can we do?
We are here begging for alms.

1511
01:20:13,418 --> 01:20:14,828
How many forms
do you need?

1512
01:20:15,045 --> 01:20:16,835
We need to send money
to 9 people, sir.

1513
01:20:17,854 --> 01:20:20,003
To whom?
- Give me the money.

1514
01:20:21,046 --> 01:20:22,426
Address?
- Valli...

1515
01:20:23,086 --> 01:20:25,620
Her husband's name
is Marudhu from the middle street.

1516
01:20:26,125 --> 01:20:28,400
Chaturvedi mangalam, Valangaiman,
Tanjore.

1517
01:20:28,425 --> 01:20:29,505
Street name?

1518
01:20:29,561 --> 01:20:31,561
He's the only Marudhu in the middle street.

1519
01:20:32,160 --> 01:20:33,570
What's your address here?

1520
01:20:34,577 --> 01:20:36,917
You're in the middle of the streets
here, too.

1521
01:20:36,942 --> 01:20:38,522
Dhanabagyam...

1522
01:20:38,625 --> 01:20:40,310
C/o KK the gentleman.
- Who is that?

1523
01:20:40,335 --> 01:20:41,585
That would be me, sir.

1524
01:20:41,723 --> 01:20:43,933
Upendra Nagar,
Puneet Raj Kumar Street,

1525
01:20:44,125 --> 01:20:45,125
Bangalore...

1526
01:20:45,150 --> 01:20:47,284
Sivaraj--
I mean, Dargah.

1527
01:20:48,045 --> 01:20:48,965
How much money?

1528
01:20:49,101 --> 01:20:50,101
1500 rupees, sir.

1529
01:20:54,496 --> 01:20:56,150
Should I write a message
with it?

1530
01:20:56,175 --> 01:20:56,925
Tell him.

1531
01:20:57,335 --> 01:21:01,230
Our children and grandchildren
shouldn't know about our struggles.

1532
01:21:01,255 --> 01:21:06,292
They need to spend the money wisely
and repay my son's loan in instalments.

1533
01:21:07,406 --> 01:21:09,901
No more lives should be lost
in our village.

1534
01:21:11,387 --> 01:21:15,987
No one should end up like us, sir.

1535
01:21:20,327 --> 01:21:21,331
Give me that, brother.

1536
01:21:21,356 --> 01:21:22,906
Murugesan, give that.

1537
01:21:24,023 --> 01:21:25,270
Have you given yours?
- Yes.

1538
01:21:25,295 --> 01:21:27,745
You give it to them.

1539
01:21:34,442 --> 01:21:35,560
Listen carefully.

1540
01:21:35,585 --> 01:21:37,854
12,000 rupees per acre for rice.

1541
01:21:38,749 --> 01:21:41,770
For rye, maize and finger millet...

1542
01:21:41,795 --> 01:21:43,795
we give 8000 rupees.

1543
01:21:45,061 --> 01:21:49,560
For barnyard millet, foxtail millet etc,
we give 7000 rupees.

1544
01:21:49,585 --> 01:21:51,965
Only the cash crop, sugarcane,
gets 15,000.

1545
01:21:55,708 --> 01:21:56,788
Understood?

1546
01:21:56,850 --> 01:21:59,150
Submit the form at the cash counter
and collect your money.

1547
01:21:59,175 --> 01:22:00,585
Thank you, sir.
- See you.

1548
01:22:02,756 --> 01:22:05,350
The interest rates are lower
than what we get outside.

1549
01:22:05,375 --> 01:22:08,100
I told you this won't work out,
but you've dragged me into it.

1550
01:22:08,125 --> 01:22:09,440
I'm scared, buddy.

1551
01:22:09,465 --> 01:22:10,375
Give it to her.

1552
01:22:15,304 --> 01:22:17,974
You are going to meet our sales targets
selling our company's pesticides...

1553
01:22:17,999 --> 01:22:19,589
and go on trips to Bangkok
and Hong Kong!

1554
01:22:19,614 --> 01:22:22,230
As you promised,
I need 3 months credit.

1555
01:22:22,255 --> 01:22:24,215
You shouldn't supply it
to anyone else.

1556
01:22:24,255 --> 01:22:26,175
I don't want them selling
at a cheaper price than me.

1557
01:22:26,215 --> 01:22:27,425
I'll take care of that!

1558
01:22:27,465 --> 01:22:29,350
Don't just say it,
do it.

1559
01:22:29,375 --> 01:22:32,150
Boss, you are the only dealer
in this town.

1560
01:22:32,175 --> 01:22:33,810
No one can sell it
at a cheaper price.

1561
01:22:33,835 --> 01:22:36,770
They notice fertilizer shops only when
the bank gives them loans.

1562
01:22:36,795 --> 01:22:38,465
Or they use manure.

1563
01:22:38,490 --> 01:22:40,625
Welcome, rich people.

1564
01:22:40,650 --> 01:22:42,465
You mean "debt-ridden people".

1565
01:22:42,505 --> 01:22:45,835
I'm no different.
I've borrowed from the bank too!

1566
01:22:45,860 --> 01:22:48,860
I want the leaf miner repellant
for my one acre.

1567
01:22:48,885 --> 01:22:51,096
And a bud moth repellant for his farm.

1568
01:22:52,005 --> 01:22:53,295
Tell him about our products.

1569
01:22:53,320 --> 01:22:55,463
This is an American invention.

1570
01:22:55,596 --> 01:22:57,136
It's high demand these days.

1571
01:22:57,982 --> 01:22:59,518
Read it all you want.

1572
01:23:02,457 --> 01:23:04,060
It's got skulls and bones!

1573
01:23:04,085 --> 01:23:05,925
That's for bugs and worms!

1574
01:23:05,950 --> 01:23:07,660
You're cocky!

1575
01:23:07,958 --> 01:23:10,230
And we need compost, too.

1576
01:23:10,255 --> 01:23:13,299
35 kgs of urea,
and 25kgs of potash.

1577
01:23:13,554 --> 01:23:16,690
How's the muck's consistency? Parched?
- It looks right.

1578
01:23:16,715 --> 01:23:19,480
Then add 15 kilos zinc sulphate to it.

1579
01:23:19,505 --> 01:23:21,480
I'm sure you haven't
prepared the base soil yet...

1580
01:23:21,505 --> 01:23:23,585
so a bag of DI'mmonium Phospate
for each of you.

1581
01:23:23,610 --> 01:23:25,660
Boss, what about the weed killer?

1582
01:23:25,804 --> 01:23:27,799
Have you used a weed killer yet?

1583
01:23:27,989 --> 01:23:30,409
The ladies pluck out the weeds.
- Fair enough.

1584
01:23:30,434 --> 01:23:32,054
Farmers needn't toil anymore!

1585
01:23:32,125 --> 01:23:35,545
The American pesticide company
has come up with a special weed killer!

1586
01:23:35,570 --> 01:23:38,020
Well... we will use it
from next year.

1587
01:23:38,045 --> 01:23:38,835
They will!

1588
01:23:38,860 --> 01:23:41,070
I know them very well.
They always buy from me.

1589
01:23:41,095 --> 01:23:43,095
Vellai, your bill is 1300 rupees.

1590
01:23:43,542 --> 01:23:44,872
1090 for you.

1591
01:23:45,473 --> 01:23:47,198
What about the tonic?

1592
01:23:47,570 --> 01:23:49,730
Oh, right.
I almost forgot!

1593
01:23:49,755 --> 01:23:51,770
This is a tonic called 'Result'.

1594
01:23:51,795 --> 01:23:54,229
This is a special tonic
for the crops.

1595
01:23:54,254 --> 01:23:57,338
It's making the grains
grow fast and healthy.

1596
01:23:57,363 --> 01:23:59,651
It yields 10 extra sacks per acre.

1597
01:23:59,832 --> 01:24:03,940
Rajagopal just got this tonic
for his entire 10 acres.

1598
01:24:03,965 --> 01:24:06,875
Don't come here after the stock runs out.
- Okay, I'll take a bottle.

1599
01:24:06,900 --> 01:24:07,690
Me too.

1600
01:24:07,715 --> 01:24:09,375
How much is it?
- 700 rupees a bottle.

1601
01:24:09,400 --> 01:24:10,520
Give me whatever you have.

1602
01:24:12,723 --> 01:24:15,073
Pack a bottle of tonic
for each of them.

1603
01:24:37,395 --> 01:24:41,004
They say overuse of fertilizers
kills the soil...

1604
01:24:41,499 --> 01:24:43,691
and also leads to an increase in pests.

1605
01:24:53,248 --> 01:24:54,208
Gold coins.

1606
01:24:54,394 --> 01:24:55,554
And bangles.

1607
01:24:55,691 --> 01:24:56,521
Okay, brother.

1608
01:24:57,490 --> 01:24:58,808
And this earring.

1609
01:24:59,208 --> 01:25:01,038
Have a seat.
- And the child's waist chain.

1610
01:25:01,815 --> 01:25:03,150
I can give you 2000 rupees.

1611
01:25:03,175 --> 01:25:05,465
Throw in another 500 bucks.
- It's not worth more.

1612
01:25:05,505 --> 01:25:06,940
I have a lot of debts!

1613
01:25:06,965 --> 01:25:08,965
Fine, I can throw in extra 200 bucks...

1614
01:25:09,248 --> 01:25:10,699
and give you 2200 in total.

1615
01:25:11,411 --> 01:25:14,457
Let's buy the pesticides after we
settle the weed pickers.

1616
01:25:15,047 --> 01:25:17,137
There are no rains in Karnataka...

1617
01:25:17,162 --> 01:25:18,310
Greetings, brother.

1618
01:25:18,335 --> 01:25:20,675
Hello, Vellai. How can I help you?
- Look what's happened!

1619
01:25:20,700 --> 01:25:22,980
I've been spraying insecticides
to no avail!

1620
01:25:23,005 --> 01:25:24,425
It's only inviting new insects.

1621
01:25:24,757 --> 01:25:26,400
I don't know what to do.

1622
01:25:26,425 --> 01:25:27,545
Oh, come on!

1623
01:25:28,312 --> 01:25:31,020
Try this and see the results
for yourself.

1624
01:25:31,045 --> 01:25:32,295
The saplings are still tiny.

1625
01:25:32,320 --> 01:25:34,440
I've got ammonia sulphate.

1626
01:25:34,465 --> 01:25:36,400
That will help them grow.

1627
01:25:36,425 --> 01:25:37,690
It costs 540 rupees.

1628
01:25:37,715 --> 01:25:40,675
Mix these together in water
and spray it on the crops.

1629
01:25:40,700 --> 01:25:42,110
It's 1400 rupees.

1630
01:25:43,394 --> 01:25:46,285
It will result in lush crops!

1631
01:25:46,410 --> 01:25:47,810
I've only got 400 rupees.

1632
01:25:47,835 --> 01:25:50,175
You want me to give it on credit?

1633
01:25:50,200 --> 01:25:52,465
Babu, give them the sulphate.

1634
01:25:52,490 --> 01:25:53,715
The solution?
- Here...

1635
01:25:53,903 --> 01:25:55,340
Give this to her.

1636
01:25:56,419 --> 01:25:57,919
Here.
- Let me get that.

1637
01:25:57,944 --> 01:26:00,238
Vellai, you take the sack.
Careful.

1638
01:26:00,491 --> 01:26:02,754
Don't forget to pay the rest!
- Of course.

1639
01:26:11,918 --> 01:26:12,708
Sir...

1640
01:26:13,396 --> 01:26:15,223
On behalf of the
American insecticide company.

1641
01:26:16,887 --> 01:26:18,574
You will have a great harvest.

1642
01:26:18,677 --> 01:26:23,113
We pay for the goods,
and they advertise for free?

1643
01:26:23,612 --> 01:26:24,942
Get to work.

1644
01:26:24,967 --> 01:26:26,047
Hello, Vellai.

1645
01:26:26,613 --> 01:26:29,100
My well is out of water...

1646
01:26:29,125 --> 01:26:31,295
Devarajan has agreed
to give me some water.

1647
01:26:31,320 --> 01:26:32,990
I need a tube to irrigate
my fields.

1648
01:26:33,046 --> 01:26:34,716
You can take that.

1649
01:26:34,741 --> 01:26:36,335
What does it cost
to rent it?

1650
01:26:36,360 --> 01:26:37,810
Just 5 rupees per metre.

1651
01:26:37,835 --> 01:26:40,168
It looks really old and worn out.

1652
01:26:40,193 --> 01:26:42,675
The new one down there
is just 15 rupees per metre.

1653
01:26:44,967 --> 01:26:46,387
That's really expensive!

1654
01:26:46,412 --> 01:26:47,917
You can only afford this!

1655
01:26:47,942 --> 01:26:50,996
Use some old cloth to cover
the holes and use it.

1656
01:26:51,085 --> 01:26:52,770
Okay.
- Take it.

1657
01:26:52,795 --> 01:26:54,335
Are you paying a deposit for it?

1658
01:26:54,903 --> 01:26:57,440
I'll pay it right after the harvest.

1659
01:26:57,465 --> 01:26:58,005
Okay!

1660
01:26:58,030 --> 01:27:00,418
Hide the local fertilizers!

1661
01:27:13,354 --> 01:27:14,934
Kaveri...
- Yes, Father?

1662
01:27:14,959 --> 01:27:16,305
chase the birds away!

1663
01:27:16,330 --> 01:27:17,250
Clap!

1664
01:27:17,581 --> 01:27:18,871
Clap harder.

1665
01:27:20,233 --> 01:27:23,023
If we let them dry while they're secreting,
the crops will go to waste.

1666
01:27:23,048 --> 01:27:25,248
Turn the water on!
- I'm on it.

1667
01:27:25,507 --> 01:27:27,637
Devarajan, turn the engine on!

1668
01:28:20,479 --> 01:28:23,232
Vellai, it's 50 rupees an hour
for the water.

1669
01:28:23,372 --> 01:28:25,982
You told me!
I'll pay you.

1670
01:30:25,734 --> 01:30:27,794
No one is giving us the details.

1671
01:30:27,819 --> 01:30:30,927
We've been sitting here cluelessly
since morning.

1672
01:30:31,554 --> 01:30:33,310
Uncle, have you weighed your grains?

1673
01:30:33,335 --> 01:30:35,335
They've shut down the
Direct Procurement Centre.

1674
01:30:36,192 --> 01:30:37,404
They've shut it down?
- Yes.

1675
01:30:38,402 --> 01:30:40,652
Why?
- They say the supply has reduced.

1676
01:30:41,411 --> 01:30:43,121
Go ask for yourself.

1677
01:30:45,169 --> 01:30:46,661
Greetings, sir.
- Hello.

1678
01:30:46,820 --> 01:30:48,410
I heard the DPC has been shut down?

1679
01:30:48,443 --> 01:30:50,335
How many times should I
repeat myself?

1680
01:30:50,360 --> 01:30:51,600
Yes, it has been shut down.

1681
01:30:51,625 --> 01:30:56,085
We need to get 150 sacks of grains
per centre every day.

1682
01:30:56,110 --> 01:30:58,013
It's Government orders.
We can't help it.

1683
01:30:58,038 --> 01:30:59,669
We even advertised in the papers.

1684
01:30:59,694 --> 01:31:01,064
See for yourself.

1685
01:31:02,741 --> 01:31:04,701
Sir, if we could read,
we wouldn't be farmers.

1686
01:31:04,726 --> 01:31:07,216
This isn't a shop where you
can supply as you please.

1687
01:31:07,241 --> 01:31:09,241
This is a DPC.
I can't help you!

1688
01:31:09,266 --> 01:31:10,516
What do we do now?

1689
01:31:10,541 --> 01:31:13,171
Store the grains at your home
and sell it the next time the TPC opens.

1690
01:31:13,196 --> 01:31:15,591
Sir, we need to pay the interest
for our loans.

1691
01:31:15,725 --> 01:31:16,940
I can't help you.

1692
01:31:16,965 --> 01:31:18,585
Sell it to private companies
if you wish.

1693
01:31:19,597 --> 01:31:23,257
Gathering here in masses
isn't going to help you.

1694
01:31:23,403 --> 01:31:25,950
Sell it to some traders
and carry on with your business.

1695
01:31:29,209 --> 01:31:30,549
Buddy, let's go.

1696
01:31:34,105 --> 01:31:34,895
Come.

1697
01:31:41,073 --> 01:31:43,363
Stay here and mind the bulls.
I'll be back.

1698
01:31:44,325 --> 01:31:45,224
Careful.

1699
01:31:46,154 --> 01:31:47,427
Welcome, Vellai.
- Brother...

1700
01:31:47,999 --> 01:31:50,146
Greetings.
- Check out the goods.

1701
01:31:51,816 --> 01:31:53,270
Is it the Deluxe variety?
- Yes.

1702
01:31:53,295 --> 01:31:54,125
Greetings.

1703
01:31:54,150 --> 01:31:55,925
Your townsfolk don't
come to me anymore.

1704
01:31:55,950 --> 01:31:57,360
That's not true!

1705
01:32:00,612 --> 01:32:02,650
The grains are moist.

1706
01:32:02,675 --> 01:32:03,255
Oh no!

1707
01:32:03,295 --> 01:32:05,974
We have dried it properly.
See for yourself.

1708
01:32:06,116 --> 01:32:08,154
Not good enough.

1709
01:32:08,265 --> 01:32:09,055
Fine...

1710
01:32:09,604 --> 01:32:11,014
I can pay 950 rupees.

1711
01:32:11,115 --> 01:32:13,850
They pay us 1300 rupees
at the TPC.

1712
01:32:13,875 --> 01:32:16,045
The government can afford to!
We are a private company!

1713
01:32:16,045 --> 01:32:19,545
Didn't you know the prices drop
when the government closes the TPC?

1714
01:32:19,585 --> 01:32:21,650
Sir, please!

1715
01:32:21,675 --> 01:32:23,545
I can't afford it!

1716
01:32:23,570 --> 01:32:26,715
This is my best rate.
Take it if you want.

1717
01:32:26,740 --> 01:32:29,138
We have to cover the tractor rent too.

1718
01:32:29,163 --> 01:32:30,573
Give us an extra 200.

1719
01:32:30,598 --> 01:32:31,638
I can't!

1720
01:32:31,817 --> 01:32:34,013
We were counting on you.
- See you!

1721
01:32:34,983 --> 01:32:36,113
I'll see you.

1722
01:32:36,287 --> 01:32:38,850
The final price
is 950 per sack.

1723
01:32:38,875 --> 01:32:40,875
Take it if you want,
or get going.

1724
01:32:40,900 --> 01:32:43,247
We can't repay our bank loans either.

1725
01:32:43,272 --> 01:32:45,888
It's the same rate everywhere.
950 rupees.

1726
01:32:53,421 --> 01:32:55,221
They are price fixing.

1727
01:32:56,700 --> 01:32:57,830
We can't do anything!

1728
01:32:58,523 --> 01:33:00,193
The Government has forsaken us.

1729
01:33:00,323 --> 01:33:03,483
Selling the grains is harder
than growing them!

1730
01:33:03,792 --> 01:33:06,912
We aren't united like the traders.

1731
01:33:07,144 --> 01:33:09,302
Farmers toil hard so that
everyone can eat.

1732
01:33:09,327 --> 01:33:11,440
But no one cares about the farmers.

1733
01:33:11,465 --> 01:33:14,125
The Chaturvedi Mangalam people
are headed over to your place.

1734
01:33:14,498 --> 01:33:16,998
They have 900 sacks.
The grains are of good quality.

1735
01:33:17,185 --> 01:33:20,605
I've told them it's 950 rupees per sack
as per the syndicate's decision.

1736
01:33:20,630 --> 01:33:22,872
All of you people
quote the same price!

1737
01:33:22,897 --> 01:33:24,060
Tough times!

1738
01:33:24,085 --> 01:33:26,715
We used to export our grains
to other countries and states.

1739
01:33:26,740 --> 01:33:30,083
But these days, they sell their grains
to us at low prices.

1740
01:33:30,108 --> 01:33:32,247
I'm still in the rice trade
only for legacy.

1741
01:33:32,869 --> 01:33:35,489
I'll give you a few bucks extra
per sack.

1742
01:33:35,589 --> 01:33:37,615
Don't overthink it.
Unload your grains.

1743
01:33:37,863 --> 01:33:40,233
Raju, unload those sacks.

1744
01:33:46,793 --> 01:33:49,380
I heard the grains didn't
fetch a good price.

1745
01:33:50,034 --> 01:33:52,107
We were forced to sell
at half the price.

1746
01:33:52,807 --> 01:33:55,637
We take the pains to grow it
but someone else decides the price!

1747
01:33:56,015 --> 01:33:57,765
They price fixed
and screwed us over.

1748
01:33:58,895 --> 01:34:01,355
I was about to repay the jewel loans...

1749
01:34:01,523 --> 01:34:03,193
but I could only pay the interest now.

1750
01:34:03,797 --> 01:34:05,297
With the remaining money...

1751
01:34:05,701 --> 01:34:07,991
I could barely afford household expenses.

1752
01:34:09,685 --> 01:34:11,225
This year has ended up
a disappointment too.

1753
01:34:11,250 --> 01:34:12,875
You even used the tonic!

1754
01:34:13,402 --> 01:34:14,652
I did everything.

1755
01:34:16,355 --> 01:34:17,855
I should have drank it instead.

1756
01:34:18,879 --> 01:34:20,249
Tough times, brother.

1757
01:34:22,458 --> 01:34:24,755
I don't know how I'm going to
repay the bank loan.

1758
01:34:41,585 --> 01:34:43,925
You've been giving me hell
for the last few years!

1759
01:34:43,950 --> 01:34:46,888
This barely covers the amount
you need to pay!

1760
01:34:46,927 --> 01:34:50,310
You take loans from the bank
and use it for random things...

1761
01:34:50,335 --> 01:34:54,270
and now you are trying to fool us
by putting the blame on the rains?

1762
01:34:54,295 --> 01:34:57,940
Sir, if you don't believe us you can ask at
our homes or the place we sold the grains.

1763
01:34:57,965 --> 01:35:01,005
Why should I come and ask at your home?
I'm not your servant!

1764
01:35:01,030 --> 01:35:02,280
He is such a senior officer.

1765
01:35:02,305 --> 01:35:05,440
Thanks to you, he has to answer
a lot of people with folded arms!

1766
01:35:05,465 --> 01:35:07,545
I don't need your stories.

1767
01:35:07,570 --> 01:35:09,770
If you don't repay the loans...

1768
01:35:09,795 --> 01:35:11,375
you will be shamed in public!

1769
01:35:11,561 --> 01:35:14,404
We put our blood, sweat and tears
into this, sir.

1770
01:35:14,474 --> 01:35:16,184
You just threw it away?

1771
01:35:17,474 --> 01:35:20,200
Cut those bloody sentimental dialogues.

1772
01:35:20,974 --> 01:35:23,014
How can we pay the loans
if we don't get a good price?

1773
01:35:23,039 --> 01:35:25,175
You are getting on my nerves!
Get out.

1774
01:35:25,200 --> 01:35:27,700
Sir, we won't cheat you.
We will repay the loans.

1775
01:35:29,175 --> 01:35:29,925
Let's go.

1776
01:35:29,925 --> 01:35:30,875
Bless you, sir.

1777
01:35:33,295 --> 01:35:34,175
Let's go.

1778
01:35:34,200 --> 01:35:36,610
He just flung the money carelessly.

1779
01:35:36,693 --> 01:35:40,573
They give lame excuses like this
and suck the lives out of us!

1780
01:35:40,598 --> 01:35:43,268
We need to confiscate their properties
and teach them a lesson.

1781
01:35:43,428 --> 01:35:44,508
Buddy...

1782
01:35:45,031 --> 01:35:46,661
Marudhu...

1783
01:35:46,686 --> 01:35:48,066
My friend!

1784
01:35:48,091 --> 01:35:49,421
Marudhu!

1785
01:35:51,514 --> 01:35:52,474
Mate!

1786
01:35:56,233 --> 01:35:57,113
Mate!

1787
01:36:01,773 --> 01:36:02,653
What is it?

1788
01:36:03,386 --> 01:36:04,426
Did you get scared?

1789
01:36:04,677 --> 01:36:05,887
It was just me burping.

1790
01:36:06,573 --> 01:36:07,523
Go back to sleep!

1791
01:36:09,498 --> 01:36:12,357
Just go to sleep.
We have work in the morning.

1792
01:36:12,382 --> 01:36:14,422
You aren't going to command
a ship in the morning!

1793
01:36:17,870 --> 01:36:19,440
Amudha and Valli.
- Yes, sir?

1794
01:36:19,465 --> 01:36:21,724
Come here. Both of you
have got money orders.

1795
01:36:23,631 --> 01:36:25,646
Can you sign?
Right here.

1796
01:36:28,202 --> 01:36:31,146
Here is 2000 rupees.
1000 rupees each.

1797
01:36:31,171 --> 01:36:32,131
I'll see you.

1798
01:36:45,169 --> 01:36:46,709
Are you from Chaturvedi Mangalam?

1799
01:36:46,734 --> 01:36:47,564
Yes.

1800
01:36:47,894 --> 01:36:49,154
How do I fill this up?

1801
01:36:49,781 --> 01:36:52,650
Write your account number here,
and your name here.

1802
01:36:52,675 --> 01:36:55,115
Fill up the amount here.

1803
01:36:55,487 --> 01:36:57,372
Should I sign here?
- Yes.

1804
01:36:57,397 --> 01:36:59,490
Fill this up,
and pay at the counter.

1805
01:37:10,006 --> 01:37:12,256
Let's hope no one runs away
after seeing us.

1806
01:37:16,175 --> 01:37:18,271
The vehicle is here.
Run!

1807
01:37:18,296 --> 01:37:20,279
They will nab us
if they see us begging.

1808
01:37:20,526 --> 01:37:22,333
Run, run, run!

1809
01:37:22,358 --> 01:37:24,068
But the car is here,
what do we do?

1810
01:37:24,093 --> 01:37:25,553
I'm not going anywhere!

1811
01:37:25,622 --> 01:37:26,615
Where are you from?

1812
01:37:26,640 --> 01:37:28,279
Sorry, sir?
- Oh, you are Tamil?

1813
01:37:28,304 --> 01:37:29,014
Yes, sir.

1814
01:37:29,039 --> 01:37:31,068
Where in Tamil Nadu?
- Tanjore, sir.

1815
01:37:31,093 --> 01:37:32,593
How many of you are here?

1816
01:37:32,733 --> 01:37:34,411
Nine of us, ma'am.

1817
01:37:36,795 --> 01:37:38,255
Greetings, grandma.

1818
01:37:39,092 --> 01:37:41,422
This is the sleeping quarters.
- Hope we aren't woken up early!

1819
01:37:41,523 --> 01:37:43,490
This is the dining room.

1820
01:37:43,515 --> 01:37:45,435
It's tea time.
- I'll be there on time!

1821
01:37:45,878 --> 01:37:47,513
Next, madam?
- This is the TV room.

1822
01:37:47,856 --> 01:37:49,316
The theatre is almost empty!

1823
01:37:49,341 --> 01:37:52,372
You can watch whatever you want.
We have Tamil channels too.

1824
01:37:52,773 --> 01:37:55,333
You don't need to roam the streets anymore.

1825
01:37:55,358 --> 01:37:58,560
We have all the facilities here.
You can live comfortably.

1826
01:37:58,888 --> 01:38:02,218
More importantly, you don't have to
worry about the police or rowdies here.

1827
01:38:02,403 --> 01:38:04,505
You can consider this to be your home.

1828
01:38:04,534 --> 01:38:05,864
My people...

1829
01:38:06,224 --> 01:38:07,974
Please forgive me.

1830
01:38:08,096 --> 01:38:10,355
I didn't know such a
nice place existed.

1831
01:38:10,380 --> 01:38:14,325
If I had known, I wouldn't have made
you sleep on the roads or under tin roofs.

1832
01:38:14,350 --> 01:38:16,760
Let's strike a deal.

1833
01:38:17,355 --> 01:38:18,849
Ask them.
- Sir...

1834
01:38:19,136 --> 01:38:21,216
Sir, we haven't come here
to live a comfortable life.

1835
01:38:21,700 --> 01:38:23,030
We are here to make a living.

1836
01:38:23,055 --> 01:38:26,255
We have our home and families
back in our village.

1837
01:38:26,531 --> 01:38:29,786
If we get good rains,
we will go back to farming.

1838
01:38:29,889 --> 01:38:32,599
But until then, we need
to earn money to send home.

1839
01:38:32,624 --> 01:38:33,834
That's what he meant.

1840
01:38:34,153 --> 01:38:37,363
Thanks a lot for wanting to help us.

1841
01:38:37,531 --> 01:38:38,661
As you wish.

1842
01:38:41,184 --> 01:38:42,184
Yes, Basava?

1843
01:38:42,209 --> 01:38:45,958
You are a prideful man.
You don't take any extra money!

1844
01:38:45,983 --> 01:38:48,654
You are a revolutionary too,
in your own way.

1845
01:38:48,679 --> 01:38:52,009
All of them are here
to change notes.

1846
01:38:52,034 --> 01:38:53,784
Will they be right
for our work?

1847
01:38:53,879 --> 01:38:54,749
Yes.

1848
01:38:58,919 --> 01:39:00,690
There is no shame
in any profession.

1849
01:39:00,715 --> 01:39:02,715
I mean my business
of picking trash too.

1850
01:39:02,755 --> 01:39:05,375
You people roam the city,
bus stands, shops etc.

1851
01:39:05,637 --> 01:39:09,270
Out there on the roads,
outside houses, near trash cans...

1852
01:39:09,295 --> 01:39:10,947
you will find all
sorts of trash like

1853
01:39:10,971 --> 01:39:13,085
plastic boxes, metal
scrap, polythene covers.

1854
01:39:13,110 --> 01:39:14,860
Don't ignore them as trash.

1855
01:39:14,885 --> 01:39:16,372
It's money!

1856
01:39:16,397 --> 01:39:17,865
Money?
- Yeah!

1857
01:39:18,193 --> 01:39:20,685
Collect all that stuff
in a sack.

1858
01:39:20,710 --> 01:39:22,130
I'll pay you for it.

1859
01:39:22,289 --> 01:39:23,289
Kozhukattai...

1860
01:39:23,654 --> 01:39:26,005
You showed us we can make money
by begging.

1861
01:39:26,030 --> 01:39:29,091
She says we can make money
by picking up trash.

1862
01:39:29,116 --> 01:39:32,116
Looks like we can make money
in everything except farming!

1863
01:39:32,504 --> 01:39:34,443
Experience is the best teacher!

1864
01:39:35,177 --> 01:39:36,770
I heard you are farmers.

1865
01:39:36,795 --> 01:39:38,295
That's why we are begging out there.

1866
01:39:38,320 --> 01:39:42,029
You know what our previous PM said?
"Quit farming if it doesn't pay you."

1867
01:39:42,097 --> 01:39:43,544
He said that?

1868
01:39:43,569 --> 01:39:45,600
You didn't understand
because he said it in Hindi.

1869
01:39:45,625 --> 01:39:46,835
It's not too late...

1870
01:39:46,860 --> 01:39:48,610
Earlier, you were part of 'Green India'.

1871
01:39:48,979 --> 01:39:50,833
Now, join the 'Clean India' movement!

1872
01:39:59,788 --> 01:40:00,748
Sir...

1873
01:40:01,121 --> 01:40:02,241
It's 5 kgs?

1874
01:40:02,266 --> 01:40:03,466
Make a note of it.

1875
01:40:13,356 --> 01:40:15,186
God bless you, son.

1876
01:40:17,395 --> 01:40:18,975
Live long and prosper.

1877
01:40:21,863 --> 01:40:23,903
Grandpa, this load is 7 kgs.
- Okay!

1878
01:40:26,710 --> 01:40:28,286
This weighs 12 kgs, brother.

1879
01:40:29,286 --> 01:40:32,068
KK, that shawl looks new!
Where did you buy it?

1880
01:40:32,093 --> 01:40:33,607
You know Rajkumar's Memorial?

1881
01:40:33,632 --> 01:40:36,207
I picked it up from the
big trash can next to it.

1882
01:40:36,232 --> 01:40:38,022
But this isn't a shawl.
It's a muffler.

1883
01:40:40,992 --> 01:40:43,099
Don't be ashamed about picking up trash.

1884
01:40:43,637 --> 01:40:45,047
Why should we be ashamed?

1885
01:40:45,072 --> 01:40:46,402
It's on them.

1886
01:40:46,427 --> 01:40:49,372
Farming might have let you down.
Trash never will!

1887
01:40:52,315 --> 01:40:56,060
All of you please sign here
and collect your money.

1888
01:40:56,085 --> 01:40:56,965
Okay.

1889
01:40:57,380 --> 01:41:00,263
You use your thumbprint, right?
Here is an ink pad.

1890
01:41:00,288 --> 01:41:02,521
Hello, Amudha.
What's the matter?

1891
01:41:02,546 --> 01:41:06,161
I've brought the organic seeds
they had asked for.

1892
01:41:07,370 --> 01:41:08,240
Here.

1893
01:41:08,265 --> 01:41:11,467
Red spinach, black nightshade...

1894
01:41:11,492 --> 01:41:13,583
sessile joyweed, and eggplant.

1895
01:41:13,608 --> 01:41:15,228
I've only got a little
of everything.

1896
01:41:15,253 --> 01:41:17,230
This isn't "a little"!

1897
01:41:17,255 --> 01:41:19,335
You've got half a kilo of each.

1898
01:41:19,620 --> 01:41:21,740
I'll fill up the address
and send it across.

1899
01:41:22,104 --> 01:41:24,014
This time is alright.

1900
01:41:24,039 --> 01:41:26,730
Next time, you shouldn't
leave your jobs and come here.

1901
01:41:26,755 --> 01:41:27,425
Okay, sir.

1902
01:41:27,450 --> 01:41:29,240
I will come to you
and give you your money.

1903
01:41:29,265 --> 01:41:31,265
The Government pays me to do that!

1904
01:41:31,362 --> 01:41:33,622
Go and pay this at the bank.

1905
01:41:34,597 --> 01:41:35,927
Why are you cutting it?

1906
01:41:35,967 --> 01:41:37,333
Because it's grown!

1907
01:41:39,613 --> 01:41:42,521
Why are you watering it?
- It grows only when I water it!

1908
01:41:43,129 --> 01:41:44,129
Right!

1909
01:41:45,593 --> 01:41:47,958
They've paid the money
we sent them to the bank.

1910
01:41:48,506 --> 01:41:50,400
What are you writing?

1911
01:41:50,425 --> 01:41:52,465
It says,
"Go green, and save green."

1912
01:41:52,490 --> 01:41:54,860
"Green area.
Don't step on the grass."

1913
01:41:54,885 --> 01:41:58,635
Turned the villages into barren lands,
and now you're turning the cities green?

1914
01:41:58,724 --> 01:42:00,684
Which grass should we not walk on?

1915
01:42:00,812 --> 01:42:01,902
This is the place.

1916
01:42:01,927 --> 01:42:04,154
They will have a 50 x 50 area
with grass in a week.

1917
01:42:05,144 --> 01:42:06,560
Do cows graze on it?

1918
01:42:06,585 --> 01:42:11,875
Even humans aren't allowed
to step on it, forget about cows!

1919
01:42:11,900 --> 01:42:14,520
The cows will throw up
if they eat it! - What?

1920
01:42:14,545 --> 01:42:16,505
This is expensive Korean grass.

1921
01:42:16,530 --> 01:42:17,372
Korean?
- Yeah!

1922
01:42:17,397 --> 01:42:20,057
The Britishers have left.
Looks like the Koreans have taken over.

1923
01:42:20,732 --> 01:42:23,692
If we had this land and water
in our village...

1924
01:42:23,733 --> 01:42:25,983
it would have supported a few families.

1925
01:42:29,240 --> 01:42:30,780
That looks like the Collector.
- Yes.

1926
01:42:30,805 --> 01:42:33,095
Did you guys verify the quotations?

1927
01:42:33,317 --> 01:42:34,107
Sir!

1928
01:42:34,256 --> 01:42:35,336
Greetings, sir.

1929
01:42:37,607 --> 01:42:39,268
We are from Chaturvedi Mangalam.

1930
01:42:39,565 --> 01:42:41,645
We met at the Collector's office.

1931
01:42:43,131 --> 01:42:44,011
Right!

1932
01:42:44,036 --> 01:42:45,746
What are you doing here?
- Well...

1933
01:42:45,771 --> 01:42:48,021
We came here because we couldn't
make a living there.

1934
01:42:48,605 --> 01:42:51,072
We have a lot of loans to repay.

1935
01:42:51,097 --> 01:42:52,757
We need to feed our families too.

1936
01:42:52,782 --> 01:42:54,082
See you, brother.

1937
01:42:55,724 --> 01:42:56,604
Those are our people.

1938
01:42:56,629 --> 01:42:58,692
We are happy to see you here,
so far from home.

1939
01:42:58,717 --> 01:43:00,467
He was our Collector!

1940
01:43:00,492 --> 01:43:01,638
Come on!
- Let's go!

1941
01:43:02,000 --> 01:43:03,833
What jobs are you working here?

1942
01:43:03,858 --> 01:43:06,513
Nothing specific, sir.
We do any job we get.

1943
01:43:06,896 --> 01:43:08,558
What's that sack
on your hand?

1944
01:43:08,974 --> 01:43:10,583
We pick up trash, sir.
- Wait!

1945
01:43:10,645 --> 01:43:13,105
Sir, they are beggars.
They just stormed in.

1946
01:43:13,130 --> 01:43:14,090
Sorry, sir.

1947
01:43:14,661 --> 01:43:15,581
Sir...

1948
01:43:16,081 --> 01:43:17,491
they are from our village.

1949
01:43:17,919 --> 01:43:19,749
We are begging because
we don't have an option.

1950
01:43:22,498 --> 01:43:23,538
Okay, sir.

1951
01:43:24,800 --> 01:43:27,083
Meet me at my office.
I'll see what I can do.

1952
01:43:27,108 --> 01:43:29,950
Sir, you can do something
for us right away.

1953
01:43:30,105 --> 01:43:33,419
They said they were going to plant
some Korean grass here.

1954
01:43:33,622 --> 01:43:35,952
They also said if a cow eats it,
it would throw up.

1955
01:43:36,193 --> 01:43:37,654
If you give the nod...

1956
01:43:37,679 --> 01:43:40,099
we can plant a garden here
with tomatoes, okra, and eggplants.

1957
01:43:40,124 --> 01:43:42,177

You guys be here
and guide them.

2011
01:45:44,610 --> 01:45:46,150
Do it as soon as possible.

See you.
- Okay, madam.

We have tilled the columns.

2015
01:46:11,911 --> 01:46:14,081

01:46:14,106 --> 01:46:15,266
Okay.

01:46:15,291 --> 01:46:16,591

01:46:16,616 --> 01:46:17,486
Let's go.

2019
01:46:44,036 --> 01:46:46,425
All of you needn't leave
work and come.

2020
01:46:46,450 --> 01:46:48,099
Just one or two would do.

2021
01:46:54,911 --> 01:46:56,536
Are you Natesan's wife?

2022
01:46:56,561 --> 01:46:58,107
You've got 22,000 rupees.

2023
01:46:58,146 --> 01:46:59,919
Who is Vellakunju's wife?
- Me, sir.

2024
01:46:59,944 --> 01:47:01,193

19,000 rupees.

01:47:03,748 --> 01:47:06,287
Within two months you have
to pay full amount.

2028
01:47:06,312 --> 01:47:08,732
Then your property documents
will be released.

2029
01:47:08,757 --> 01:47:09,755
Understood?

2030
01:47:11,489 --> 01:47:13,005
It's been 45 days, sir.

2031
01:47:13,030 --> 01:47:14,950
It will start flowering
in another 10-15 days.

2032
01:47:14,975 --> 01:47:16,015
After that...

2033
01:47:16,039 --> 01:47:19,146
With in one and half months it will
become completely matured

2034
01:47:19,412 --> 01:47:22,490
Brinjal and ladies finger!

2035
01:47:22,514 --> 01:47:24,514
This side it's chillies

Like before I said it's Veld grape

2037
01:47:27,215 --> 01:47:28,215
What is that?

2038
01:47:28,239 --> 01:47:30,239
Sir it's chillies

2039
01:47:58,664 --> 01:48:01,817
Rather than croutons,
organic vegetables are more necessary.

2040
01:48:01,988 --> 01:48:05,990
In this park, all of this was done
by these village farmers.

2041
01:48:06,015 --> 01:48:09,091
I don't know whether I can
give them permanent jobs.

2042
01:48:09,116 --> 01:48:12,736
But I'm going to implement this plan
across several parks.

2043
01:48:12,911 --> 01:48:14,404
You've done a great job!

2044
01:48:18,145 --> 01:48:20,395
Achievements of farmers from
Chaturvedi Mangalam village.

2045
01:48:20,420 --> 01:48:22,350
Our townsfolk?
- Indeed!

2046
01:48:22,514 --> 01:48:23,604
Give me some rice.

2047
01:48:23,629 --> 01:48:25,089
Valli...
- Coming.

2048
01:48:25,513 --> 01:48:28,560
Amudha, your husband's photo
is in the newspapers.

2049
01:48:28,585 --> 01:48:31,893
Oh no, what happened?
- Nothing to fear, Amudha!

2050
01:48:31,918 --> 01:48:33,168
It's good news.

2051
01:48:33,193 --> 01:48:36,600
Don't panic. It's good news.

2052
01:48:36,625 --> 01:48:38,125
It is good news!

2053
01:48:38,150 --> 01:48:42,096
They are doing a good job
growing vegetables and plants in the city!

2054
01:48:42,121 --> 01:48:43,951
The article is about that.

2055
01:49:16,108 --> 01:49:17,583
Look there.

2056
01:49:20,228 --> 01:49:22,395
Chaturvedi Mangalam stop!

2057
01:49:25,013 --> 01:49:26,263
Watch your step.

2058
01:49:26,288 --> 01:49:27,690
Welcome!

2059
01:49:27,715 --> 01:49:29,005
Are you well?

2060
01:49:29,381 --> 01:49:30,974
Is everything alright?

2061
01:49:31,307 --> 01:49:32,717
Yes?

2062
01:49:32,742 --> 01:49:34,202
I'm fine.

2063
01:49:36,077 --> 01:49:38,077
Murugesa how are you?

2064
01:49:38,616 --> 01:49:41,115
Let go and see them!

2065
01:50:15,513 --> 01:50:17,107
It's time you moved on.

2066
01:50:18,200 --> 01:50:19,820
Your sister will handle
the arrangements.

2067
01:50:19,845 --> 01:50:20,925
Just say yes!

2068
01:51:58,098 --> 01:52:00,468
The village has collectively decided
to give up farming.

2069
01:52:02,155 --> 01:52:04,723
Farmers are committing suicide
these days.

2070
01:52:04,748 --> 01:52:07,458
We are only saving our lives
with this proactive measure.

2071
01:52:09,491 --> 01:52:12,730
When people like you live happily
after giving up farming...

2072
01:52:12,840 --> 01:52:15,810
why should the rest of us
be stuck with farming?

2073
01:52:16,022 --> 01:52:16,942
Yes, brother.

2074
01:52:17,565 --> 01:52:20,105
Farmers aren't respected
in our village anymore.

2075
01:52:20,313 --> 01:52:21,893
We don't make any money either.

2076
01:52:23,610 --> 01:52:26,730
The people are slowly taking up other jobs.

2077
01:52:27,386 --> 01:52:31,487
Even Amudha and I are working as
construction labourers now, aren't we?

2078
01:52:35,111 --> 01:52:36,731
I don't know another way.

2079
01:52:36,810 --> 01:52:38,698
Next time you go to the city...

2080
01:52:38,723 --> 01:52:41,643
please take people like me along
and help us out.

2081
01:52:42,104 --> 01:52:44,643
I'm ready to do any job but farming.

2082
01:52:45,208 --> 01:52:46,971
Do what's good for the village.

2083
01:52:53,947 --> 01:52:58,550
I thought I'll repay these loans
and come back to farm in the village.

2084
01:52:58,575 --> 01:53:00,205
But these people want to come with me!

2085
01:53:00,512 --> 01:53:02,432
Did I set a bad example?

2086
01:53:05,221 --> 01:53:07,682
Anyone wants to get off
at Chaturvedi Mangalam?

2087
01:53:09,202 --> 01:53:10,807
You are off to the city?

2088
01:53:10,832 --> 01:53:12,292
Get in carefully.

2089
01:53:12,691 --> 01:53:13,941
Let's leave.

2090
01:53:14,532 --> 01:53:19,018
The people of Chaturvedi Mangalam only
have a month left to repay their loans.

2091
01:53:19,063 --> 01:53:23,635
If they don't repay it on time,
we can legally auction their properties.

2092
01:53:24,110 --> 01:53:26,260
This file has the draft copies.

2093
01:53:27,820 --> 01:53:30,917
Bangalore is borrowing
200,000 crores from foreign investors.

2094
01:53:31,175 --> 01:53:33,924
The city needs to be clean
when the investors visit.

2095
01:53:33,949 --> 01:53:38,300
Round up anyone you find suspicious,
including homeless people on the streets.

2096
01:53:38,325 --> 01:53:40,325
Don't spare anyone.
- Yes, sir.

2097
01:53:40,705 --> 01:53:43,823
How many people did you round up?
- 106 people in total.

2098
01:53:44,197 --> 01:53:45,407
Where are they from?

2099
01:53:45,570 --> 01:53:49,760
36 Tamilians, 8 Malayalis, 30 Telugus,
10 Kannadigas, and 22 Hindis.

2100
01:53:49,785 --> 01:53:51,785
There are 36 Tamilians?
- Yes, sir.

2101
01:53:51,810 --> 01:53:53,110
It's June.

2102
01:53:53,785 --> 01:53:55,938
It's the Cauvery dispute time.
We can't trust anyone.

2103
01:53:55,963 --> 01:53:57,390
"The Mettur Dam has no water."

2104
01:53:57,415 --> 01:53:58,825
"We have a share
in Cauvery too!"

2105
01:53:58,850 --> 01:54:02,800
They might hold a protest when our
minsters are meeting the investors.

2106
01:54:02,825 --> 01:54:04,325
It will become a big problem.

2107
01:54:04,891 --> 01:54:07,351
File some case on the Tamils,
and send them to the care camps.

2108
01:54:07,390 --> 01:54:10,350
For the other people...
just follow the formalities.

2109
01:54:10,375 --> 01:54:11,125
Okay, sir.

2110
01:54:17,079 --> 01:54:19,100
You've given up farming?

2111
01:54:19,125 --> 01:54:21,760
That's a big decision.

2112
01:54:21,785 --> 01:54:25,620
How will the Collector answer
the Central and State governments?

2113
01:54:26,102 --> 01:54:31,659
Would you rather get your kids fancy
degrees and send them for jobs abroad...

2114
01:54:31,808 --> 01:54:33,808
or would you make them farmers like us?

2115
01:54:35,133 --> 01:54:38,479
Sir, why have you gone quiet?

2116
01:54:38,593 --> 01:54:40,133
What can they say?

2117
01:54:40,158 --> 01:54:42,424
The doctor wants his kid
to become a doctor.

2118
01:54:42,586 --> 01:54:45,336
The engineer wants his kid
to become an engineer.

2119
01:54:45,634 --> 01:54:48,510
You would wish your kid
becomes a Collector like you.

2120
01:54:48,535 --> 01:54:51,915
But does any farmer wants his kid
to become a farmer like him?

2121
01:54:51,940 --> 01:54:53,260
How is this fair?

2122
01:54:53,285 --> 01:54:54,776
Do we make any money?

2123
01:54:54,801 --> 01:54:56,890
We don't even recover
our investments.

2124
01:54:56,915 --> 01:55:00,084
You really don't care about us
when you fix the rates.

2125
01:55:00,109 --> 01:55:02,470
Why should we farm?

2126
01:55:02,495 --> 01:55:06,206
If all the villages give up farming,
imagine our country's plight.

2127
01:55:06,309 --> 01:55:09,588
We are slowly repaying our debts
after having given up farming.

2128
01:55:09,613 --> 01:55:11,863
Instead of trying to talk us out of it...

2129
01:55:12,094 --> 01:55:16,235
take the appropriate measures to ensure
no other village gives up farming like us.

2130
01:55:16,260 --> 01:55:17,010
Leave!

2131
01:55:17,035 --> 01:55:18,415
Let's go, people.

2132
01:55:18,715 --> 01:55:21,220
Don't get carried away.

2133
01:55:21,245 --> 01:55:22,760
We are here for you.

2134
01:55:22,785 --> 01:55:25,535
Think about it, you don't know
anything apart from farming!

2135
01:55:25,682 --> 01:55:27,260
We might even beg.
What do you care?

2136
01:55:27,285 --> 01:55:30,495
If you want to save farming,
why don't you do it yourself?

2137
01:55:30,535 --> 01:55:31,745
They've insulted us.

2138
01:55:31,770 --> 01:55:34,196
Get me the list of people
who've left this village.

2139
01:55:34,221 --> 01:55:37,180
Where they are, the jobs they are doing,
how much they earn.

2140
01:55:37,205 --> 01:55:38,245
I want all the details.

2141
01:55:38,270 --> 01:55:40,150
We have come all the way for them.

2142
01:55:40,175 --> 01:55:42,417
They don't even heed us.

2143
01:55:43,618 --> 01:55:46,550
Bangalore is borrowing 12,000 crores
from an overseas investor.

2144
01:55:46,575 --> 01:55:50,010
These banners and hoardings
are to fool the foreign investors.

2145
01:55:50,035 --> 01:55:50,875
See?

2146
01:55:50,900 --> 01:55:55,479
And you're running away from the village
after borrowing a few ten thousands.

2147
01:55:55,640 --> 01:55:57,050
What will they do
with all that money?

2148
01:55:57,075 --> 01:55:58,825
The officials will split the booty.

2149
01:55:58,825 --> 01:56:00,705
Question them, and you get killed.
- Hello?

2150
01:56:00,867 --> 01:56:01,737
Dear...

2151
01:56:02,312 --> 01:56:04,432
The Collector and Thasildar
came to our village.

2152
01:56:04,915 --> 01:56:08,120
They've ordered an inquiry to look into
the jobs you are doing there.

2153
01:56:08,687 --> 01:56:10,081
Be careful.

2154
01:56:11,020 --> 01:56:12,270
Was it the missus?

2155
01:56:12,956 --> 01:56:15,182
Since our people decided
to give up farming...

2156
01:56:15,207 --> 01:56:19,713
the Collector and Thasildar have ordered
to check what jobs we are doing here.

2157
01:56:23,231 --> 01:56:24,281
Hello, Inspector.

2158
01:56:24,473 --> 01:56:27,823
This is the list of people who borrowed
loans and fled to Bangalore.

2159
01:56:28,145 --> 01:56:29,025
Is it?

2160
01:56:31,004 --> 01:56:31,754
Thank you.

2161
01:56:35,603 --> 01:56:37,307
Ramgowda,
call those people.

2162
01:56:37,332 --> 01:56:38,872
Hey, come here.

2163
01:56:41,297 --> 01:56:42,720
I meant you.
Come here.

2164
01:56:42,745 --> 01:56:45,061
All of you stay right here.
I'll handle this.

2165
01:56:45,086 --> 01:56:46,286
That side.

2166
01:56:46,311 --> 01:56:47,573
Yes, sir.

2167
01:56:49,441 --> 01:56:50,680
Greetings, sir.

2168
01:56:50,705 --> 01:56:51,785
Where are you people from?

2169
01:56:51,963 --> 01:56:53,300
A village near Tanjore.

2170
01:56:53,325 --> 01:56:54,375
Where do you live here?

2171
01:56:54,415 --> 01:56:55,325
Sivaji Nagar.

2172
01:56:55,350 --> 01:56:57,060
You are from Tamil Nadu?
- Yes, sir.

2173
01:56:58,086 --> 01:57:00,260
So what if we're from Tamil Nadu?

2174
01:57:00,285 --> 01:57:02,315
What is your address in Sivaji Nagar?

2175
01:57:02,789 --> 01:57:03,909
I've got proof, sir.

2176
01:57:04,705 --> 01:57:05,535
See.

2177
01:57:05,560 --> 01:57:06,470
Take a photo.

2178
01:57:10,673 --> 01:57:12,978
Leave the place quickly, okay?

2179
01:57:13,003 --> 01:57:13,883
Leave.

2180
01:57:15,697 --> 01:57:16,697
What is it?

2181
01:57:16,918 --> 01:57:19,628
What did they say?
- Quiet! Not here.

2182
01:57:19,754 --> 01:57:20,714
Come on.

2183
01:57:21,625 --> 01:57:22,785
What is he doing?

2184
01:57:22,810 --> 01:57:25,350
Hurry up, woman.
They might be back.

2185
01:57:25,375 --> 01:57:27,415
Sathish...
- Yes, brother?

2186
01:57:27,455 --> 01:57:29,165
You are closing your shop?
Is there no food left?

2187
01:57:29,190 --> 01:57:30,720
The police gave me a strict warning.

2188
01:57:30,745 --> 01:57:33,075
They are threatening me for
keeping the shop open late night.

2189
01:57:33,100 --> 01:57:34,955
Where is the laundry man?
And the Major?

2190
01:57:34,980 --> 01:57:38,050
They left 4 days back.
No idea where they went.

2191
01:57:38,075 --> 01:57:40,955
The police are harassing everyone
in Tamil populated localities.

2192
01:57:41,925 --> 01:57:43,471
Looks like there is a problem.

2193
01:57:49,400 --> 01:57:51,180
What's that noise inside?

2194
01:57:51,205 --> 01:57:53,745
The lock is open.
Who is inside?

2195
01:57:53,770 --> 01:57:56,020
Have they got any weapons?
- No, sir.

2196
01:57:56,045 --> 01:57:57,050
Check thoroughly.

2197
01:57:57,075 --> 01:57:58,205
It's the police.

2198
01:57:58,495 --> 01:58:00,625
What jobs do you people do?

2199
01:58:00,650 --> 01:58:02,020
We are manual labourers.

2200
01:58:02,415 --> 01:58:03,665
You, answer me!

2201
01:58:03,690 --> 01:58:05,190
They are my townsfolk.

2202
01:58:05,262 --> 01:58:07,220
Why have you people come here
from Tamil Nadu?

2203
01:58:07,245 --> 01:58:09,495
Are you here to protest?
Or incite riots? - No, sir!

2204
01:58:09,520 --> 01:58:11,190
Sir, you are mistaken.
We are here to work.

2205
01:58:11,215 --> 01:58:13,925
Everyone come out.
Constable, get the vehicle.

2206
01:58:26,181 --> 01:58:27,261
Get down.

2207
01:58:27,814 --> 01:58:28,684
Hurry up.

2208
01:58:29,812 --> 01:58:30,722
Walk in a line.

2209
01:58:31,316 --> 01:58:32,196
Make it quick.

2210
01:58:36,797 --> 01:58:38,390
Here, form a line.

2211
01:58:38,415 --> 01:58:39,470
What's your name?

2212
01:58:39,495 --> 01:58:40,455
Nallakannu.

2213
01:58:40,825 --> 01:58:42,023
Which state?

2214
01:58:42,048 --> 01:58:43,008
Tamil Nadu.

2215
01:58:43,995 --> 01:58:46,901
Did you see those people?

2216
01:58:47,048 --> 01:58:50,260
Let's handle it.
They can't do anything!

2217
01:58:50,285 --> 01:58:51,415
Vellakunju...

2218
01:58:51,747 --> 01:58:54,010
Those are the people
who beat us up.

2219
01:58:54,035 --> 01:58:55,035
Yes, it is them!

2220
01:58:57,291 --> 01:58:59,621
Switch your phone off, boy.
- I did, sir.

2221
01:59:01,432 --> 01:59:02,948
Anyone else has phones?

2222
01:59:05,462 --> 01:59:06,462
Give it.

2223
01:59:08,105 --> 01:59:09,275
Forgive me, brother.

2224
01:59:09,325 --> 01:59:10,575
It's our livelihood.

2225
01:59:10,681 --> 01:59:13,260
We can make a living here
only if we pretend to be like them.

2226
01:59:13,285 --> 01:59:15,260
What's your name?
- Tamizh.

2227
01:59:15,285 --> 01:59:16,495
My name is Kural.

2228
01:59:16,535 --> 01:59:18,963
You hid your Tamil identities
for your bread, huh?

2229
01:59:18,988 --> 01:59:20,575
What's your name here?

2230
01:59:20,600 --> 01:59:22,890
Seetha Ramaiah.
- I'm Bedha Ramaiah.

2231
01:59:22,915 --> 01:59:24,745
Why don't you call yourself
Thambi Ramaiah?

2232
01:59:24,770 --> 01:59:25,820
Kozhukattai!

2233
01:59:26,971 --> 01:59:29,182
What about the others?

2234
01:59:29,989 --> 01:59:32,300
They are from Nagapattinam,
Pudhukottai, Ramnad etc...

2235
01:59:32,325 --> 01:59:33,667
to escape poverty.

2236
01:59:43,125 --> 01:59:44,535
Sir, these are Malayalis.

2237
01:59:45,575 --> 01:59:47,182
These are Telugu people.

2238
01:59:48,125 --> 01:59:49,245
Where are the Tamils?

2239
02:00:13,682 --> 02:00:19,870
File an FIR against them under
Section 75, 145, 153, 155 and 188.

2240
02:00:22,430 --> 02:00:23,300
Sir?

2241
02:00:23,995 --> 02:00:24,995
Poor guys.

2242
02:00:25,292 --> 02:00:27,600
Those are the orders
from the higher ups.

2243
02:00:27,625 --> 02:00:29,625
Okay, sir.
- Do it immediately!

2244
02:00:29,894 --> 02:00:31,430
Get the register.

2245
02:00:31,455 --> 02:00:32,455
Pass that register.

2246
02:00:37,136 --> 02:00:38,378
Who is Vellakunju?

2247
02:00:39,063 --> 02:00:39,893
It's me.

2248
02:00:40,825 --> 02:00:41,850
Who is KK?

2249
02:00:41,875 --> 02:00:42,625
Me, sir.

2250
02:00:44,143 --> 02:00:45,063
Natesan?

2251
02:00:45,512 --> 02:00:46,262
Sir...

2252
02:00:49,158 --> 02:00:51,503
Sir, what is going on?

2253
02:00:51,963 --> 02:00:55,180
You could have been happy in
your own village.

2254
02:00:55,205 --> 02:00:56,665
Instead, you are stuck here!

2255
02:00:59,072 --> 02:01:01,192
What were you doing
in your village?

2256
02:01:04,079 --> 02:01:04,789
Sir?

2257
02:01:32,187 --> 02:01:36,057
You are honest, hard-working people.
They have forced you in here.

2258
02:01:37,321 --> 02:01:41,760
The police have ordered us
not to let you go for three weeks.

2259
02:01:42,408 --> 02:01:47,362
But your properties will be seized
if you don't pay back your loans.

2260
02:01:48,066 --> 02:01:51,616
That is painful.

2261
02:02:01,846 --> 02:02:06,042
You can't repay your loan,
but you have so much pride?

2262
02:02:10,979 --> 02:02:12,850
The law obeys the rich.

2263
02:02:12,875 --> 02:02:14,875
The poor must obey the law.

2264
02:02:16,077 --> 02:02:19,720
"When one doesn't realise their power,
they will be used for begging."

2265
02:02:19,745 --> 02:02:21,838
that's the elephant's lesson to us.

2266
02:02:40,181 --> 02:02:42,036
We've received
information that your

2267
02:02:42,060 --> 02:02:44,181
people have been
arrested in Bangalore.

2268
02:02:44,206 --> 02:02:45,956
We don't know why they got arrested.

2269
02:02:47,796 --> 02:02:50,970
We have given you the maximum tenure
we can afford.

2270
02:02:50,995 --> 02:02:54,390
If you don't repay it in 3 instalments,
we will take legal action.

2271
02:02:54,415 --> 02:02:59,534
We will have no option but to seize
your properties to recover our money.

2272
02:02:59,828 --> 02:03:01,643
No excuses.
Sorry.

2273
02:03:12,431 --> 02:03:14,391
They have only been arrested there.

2274
02:03:14,838 --> 02:03:17,628
They haven't been killed yet,
unlike what you did to Valli's husband.

2275
02:03:20,656 --> 02:03:21,486
Enough!

2276
02:03:22,988 --> 02:03:23,698
Let's go.

2277
02:03:25,843 --> 02:03:28,093
You made us give up farming,
which was more valuable than life.

2278
02:03:28,118 --> 02:03:30,118
But we will not
give up our properties.

2279
02:03:31,409 --> 02:03:34,354
Sir, can you come to
Teresa Home immediately?

2280
02:03:35,543 --> 02:03:39,034
One of the Tamilians you brought yesterday
is in a critical position.

2281
02:03:40,294 --> 02:03:41,370
Yes, sir.

2282
02:03:48,361 --> 02:03:50,909
Sir, their homes are empty.

2283
02:03:51,047 --> 02:03:54,760
Sir, all stations in the city
have been informed about the accused.

2284
02:03:54,785 --> 02:03:56,300
They can't leave the city.

2285
02:03:56,325 --> 02:03:58,285
How could you be so careless?

2286
02:03:58,325 --> 02:04:00,415
If they end up doing something,
we will be in deep trouble!

2287
02:04:00,455 --> 02:04:01,680
I'm accountable for them!

2288
02:04:01,705 --> 02:04:05,100
Sir, I was talking to them
till 2 in the morning.

2289
02:04:05,125 --> 02:04:07,350
But when I woke up,
no one was here.

2290
02:04:07,375 --> 02:04:08,825
I only found this letter.

2291
02:04:39,745 --> 02:04:41,206
Please forgive us.

2292
02:04:41,698 --> 02:04:44,260
In a city where we couldn't
speak the language...

2293
02:04:44,285 --> 02:04:49,745
we thank all the people
who gave us charity, jobs, and helped us.

2294
02:04:50,117 --> 02:04:53,010
We've found hope that no matter
where we go...

2295
02:04:53,035 --> 02:04:55,924
good people like you
will always protect us.

2296
02:04:58,134 --> 02:05:01,198
We are fleeing to another city.

2297
02:05:02,245 --> 02:05:05,393
We need to send money home
every week.

2298
02:05:05,689 --> 02:05:08,112
We need to protect
our homes and farms.

2299
02:05:08,391 --> 02:05:12,651
No other village should have to
make the decision we had to.

2300
02:05:13,433 --> 02:05:17,050
No man who grew up in the farms
surrounded by nature should think...

2301
02:05:17,075 --> 02:05:20,463
he needs to go to the city
to make a living.

2302
02:05:20,909 --> 02:05:25,206
Let us be the last people
to give up on village life.
