1
00:00:18,740 --> 00:00:23,860
(piercing title music)

2
00:00:26,100 --> 00:00:27,540
(birds chirping)

3
00:00:29,060 --> 00:00:30,060
(soft, rhythmic rustling)

4
00:00:37,060 --> 00:00:38,180
(metallic thud)

5
00:00:42,620 --> 00:00:44,220
I don't do it these days.

6
00:00:44,740 --> 00:00:45,780
Leave me be.

7
00:00:47,500 --> 00:00:49,100
Who else is there for me
other than you?

8
00:00:49,940 --> 00:00:51,180
Please don't say no.

9
00:00:54,820 --> 00:00:56,500
One last time.
Please don't think.

10
00:00:57,660 --> 00:00:59,100
(tender music)

11
00:00:59,140 --> 00:01:00,260
Do this for me.

12
00:01:02,740 --> 00:01:04,420
You won't face any problems
because of this.

13
00:01:10,300 --> 00:01:11,660
Here, take this.

14
00:01:13,020 --> 00:01:13,940
Take it.

15
00:01:17,660 --> 00:01:18,860
Keep it near the head.

16
00:01:22,740 --> 00:01:23,940
Be there on time.

17
00:01:24,580 --> 00:01:25,500
I'll go now.

18
00:01:26,180 --> 00:01:27,420
(whistling breeze)

19
00:01:36,100 --> 00:01:38,300
(rhythmic music)

20
00:02:49,300 --> 00:02:51,420
(Sidharthan) In the Ponnumaarapatti
Temple Festival,

21
00:02:51,500 --> 00:02:54,540
Muthu was the one who killed
both Mokkarasu and Thadiyan.

22
00:02:55,260 --> 00:03:00,500
After that, he left Kanmani Dance
Troupe and even Madurai.

23
00:03:01,260 --> 00:03:02,940
Where did Muthu go after that?

24
00:03:03,260 --> 00:03:04,820
Who killed him?

25
00:03:04,940 --> 00:03:06,380
There's no information
about any of this.

26
00:03:08,060 --> 00:03:12,100
Today, the court ordered
to bury Muthu's head.

27
00:03:13,380 --> 00:03:15,060
Muthu's head will reach
the police station

28
00:03:15,100 --> 00:03:16,860
from the mortuary tomorrow.

29
00:03:29,380 --> 00:03:30,380
Hello, sir.

30
00:03:33,420 --> 00:03:34,980
Who are you?
What's the matter?

31
00:03:35,540 --> 00:03:36,780
I am here from Ernakulam.

32
00:03:37,700 --> 00:03:39,900
-You got a head, right? Muthu?
-Yes.

33
00:03:40,220 --> 00:03:41,500
He was my friend.

34
00:03:42,220 --> 00:03:43,220
Babu.

35
00:03:45,260 --> 00:03:46,380
Pattalam Babu?

36
00:03:52,020 --> 00:03:53,780
(poignant music)

37
00:03:58,340 --> 00:03:59,340
It is Muthu.

38
00:04:17,460 --> 00:04:20,500
Muthu was in contact
with me for three years.

39
00:04:21,580 --> 00:04:23,980
For the last couple of months,

40
00:04:24,220 --> 00:04:29,300
I don't know where he went
and what he did, sir.

41
00:04:29,700 --> 00:04:31,220
(weary sigh)

42
00:04:34,500 --> 00:04:35,940
I'll tell you everything, sir.

43
00:04:36,500 --> 00:04:37,660
Sivettan is dead.

44
00:04:38,300 --> 00:04:39,580
Muthu is dead.

45
00:04:39,620 --> 00:04:41,780
(scoffs) I don't care
if anything happens to me.

46
00:04:42,140 --> 00:04:43,580
I'll tell you everything, sir.

47
00:04:47,820 --> 00:04:49,100
(vehicle approaching)

48
00:04:54,820 --> 00:04:57,100
(Babu) We got to know that
Johny was released from jail

49
00:04:57,140 --> 00:04:59,460
last September after 10 years.

50
00:04:59,940 --> 00:05:01,820
We searched for him
in a lot of places.

51
00:05:01,860 --> 00:05:03,340
But we couldn't find him.

52
00:05:04,100 --> 00:05:06,740
Three months ago,
Johny and his gang

53
00:05:07,260 --> 00:05:09,980
kidnapped me to a factory in Aluva.

54
00:05:10,060 --> 00:05:12,580
They took Muthu's number
from my phone

55
00:05:12,700 --> 00:05:15,100
and threatened to kill me
if he didn't come.

56
00:05:15,740 --> 00:05:19,380
Johny knew Muthu would come
for sure if I was in danger.

57
00:05:26,620 --> 00:05:28,180
(rattling music)

58
00:05:42,460 --> 00:05:43,620
(low, constant machine hum)

59
00:05:56,180 --> 00:05:57,780
(rattling music continues)

60
00:06:04,820 --> 00:06:05,820
-(heavy thud)
-(Muthu groans)

61
00:06:06,020 --> 00:06:06,980
(heavy, limp thud)

62
00:06:08,460 --> 00:06:09,780
(distant rhythmic clanking)

63
00:06:18,700 --> 00:06:19,740
(Muthu panting)

64
00:06:22,380 --> 00:06:23,860
(strained rope creaking)

65
00:06:28,220 --> 00:06:29,940
(coughs) Babu!

66
00:06:31,060 --> 00:06:32,060
What happened?

67
00:06:32,540 --> 00:06:33,740
Eh...

68
00:06:33,980 --> 00:06:34,980
Muthu.

69
00:06:36,460 --> 00:06:37,740
I didn't say anything.

70
00:06:38,260 --> 00:06:39,260
(metallic clanking)

71
00:06:39,420 --> 00:06:40,340
(grunts, strains)

72
00:06:41,780 --> 00:06:43,020
(Muthu grunts louder)

73
00:06:44,300 --> 00:06:47,380
He took your number
from my phone.

74
00:06:48,020 --> 00:06:49,500
Who did this?

75
00:06:49,780 --> 00:06:50,780
Is it Johny?

76
00:06:51,140 --> 00:06:52,620
(Johny) It is Johny!

77
00:06:54,100 --> 00:06:56,820
Muthu! Muthu! Muthu!

78
00:06:57,260 --> 00:06:58,260
(screams) Johny!

79
00:06:58,420 --> 00:06:59,540
Hey!

80
00:06:59,900 --> 00:07:02,340
It's always fun to see you.

81
00:07:03,260 --> 00:07:05,300
Muthu, I searched for you
everywhere.

82
00:07:06,460 --> 00:07:08,500
Kerala, Tamil Nadu...
There isn't a place

83
00:07:08,540 --> 00:07:10,060
where I didn't look for you.

84
00:07:10,540 --> 00:07:14,020
Even your girlfriend wouldn't have
searched for you like this.

85
00:07:16,900 --> 00:07:18,860
I have so much love for you!

86
00:07:19,260 --> 00:07:20,500
Do you know that, Muthu?

87
00:07:20,540 --> 00:07:21,500
(metallic clanks)

88
00:07:24,860 --> 00:07:25,860
How is she?

89
00:07:26,140 --> 00:07:27,260
Your Meena.

90
00:07:28,540 --> 00:07:29,900
-(shouts) Hey, Johny!
-(cackles)

91
00:07:36,220 --> 00:07:38,820
Babu said he didn't know
where the money is.

92
00:07:38,900 --> 00:07:39,940
What is this?

93
00:07:41,540 --> 00:07:42,980
I'll repeat what Sivettan told you.

94
00:07:43,660 --> 00:07:45,940
You won't get
even a single paisa from that money!

95
00:07:46,100 --> 00:07:48,660
Eh... That's fine.

96
00:07:53,860 --> 00:07:55,820
(in Hindi) But I know one thing.

97
00:07:56,860 --> 00:08:01,060
You both know where the money is.

98
00:08:01,340 --> 00:08:02,460
Huh?

99
00:08:03,380 --> 00:08:05,900
I also know this old man
won't tell me.

100
00:08:07,780 --> 00:08:08,980
But...

101
00:08:09,820 --> 00:08:11,460
you will tell me.

102
00:08:11,980 --> 00:08:13,100
(chain clanking)

103
00:08:19,340 --> 00:08:20,260
-Hey!
-(heavy thud)

104
00:08:20,620 --> 00:08:21,620
Hey!

105
00:08:22,140 --> 00:08:24,100
What's the point in hitting him?

106
00:08:25,100 --> 00:08:26,340
Hit this fucker!

107
00:08:27,140 --> 00:08:28,940
Only then Muthu will feel the pain.

108
00:08:31,340 --> 00:08:33,270
(Babu begins yelping in pain)

109
00:08:33,300 --> 00:08:34,220
Hey!

110
00:08:34,260 --> 00:08:35,140
Johny!

111
00:08:35,460 --> 00:08:37,180
(Muthu) No!

112
00:08:38,620 --> 00:08:39,780
(Muthu) Johny!

113
00:08:39,860 --> 00:08:40,860
Muthu!

114
00:08:41,020 --> 00:08:42,100
(groans)

115
00:08:42,820 --> 00:08:45,660
(panting) Let these dogs do
anything to me!

116
00:08:46,020 --> 00:08:47,020
(groans)

117
00:08:47,620 --> 00:08:48,740
You don't say anything.

118
00:08:48,780 --> 00:08:49,740
(Babu screams)

119
00:08:51,780 --> 00:08:53,220
-Babu!
-This fucker

120
00:08:54,060 --> 00:08:58,220
-will die without getting the money.
-Hey, Johny!

121
00:08:58,460 --> 00:08:59,540
(Babu groans)

122
00:08:59,740 --> 00:09:00,860
-Don't do this, Johny!
-(Babu screaming)

123
00:09:01,340 --> 00:09:02,460
(heavy thumping and Babu screaming)

124
00:09:02,660 --> 00:09:03,940
(laughing) Oh, my God!

125
00:09:04,060 --> 00:09:05,660
Oh, my God!

126
00:09:05,980 --> 00:09:07,380
What can I say?

127
00:09:08,300 --> 00:09:09,660
-Poor Sivettan.
-(Babu screams)

128
00:09:10,420 --> 00:09:12,940
Even though he had
such loyal people,

129
00:09:14,420 --> 00:09:16,340
he died so soon, right?

130
00:09:18,100 --> 00:09:22,140
Ugh! I can't watch this drama.

131
00:09:22,420 --> 00:09:24,180
Call me if he says anything.

132
00:09:25,100 --> 00:09:26,140
(screaming continues)

133
00:09:28,580 --> 00:09:29,660
(tense music)

134
00:09:37,140 --> 00:09:38,260
(shouting muffles, echoes)

135
00:09:51,820 --> 00:09:54,020
(music intensifies)

136
00:09:56,140 --> 00:09:57,100
Stop it!

137
00:09:59,500 --> 00:10:00,460
Go get Johny!

138
00:10:00,620 --> 00:10:01,540
I'll tell him where the money is.

139
00:10:02,900 --> 00:10:04,020
(Babu groaning)

140
00:10:06,100 --> 00:10:07,340
(rapid, retreating thuds)

141
00:10:10,860 --> 00:10:11,900
(metallic clanking)

142
00:10:14,980 --> 00:10:16,180
(groans)

143
00:10:16,980 --> 00:10:18,700
(intense groaning)

144
00:10:24,420 --> 00:10:26,140
(hollow, vibrating metal stress)

145
00:10:27,660 --> 00:10:28,980
(metallic snap, explosive hiss)

146
00:10:33,460 --> 00:10:34,620
(metallic clanking)

147
00:10:40,780 --> 00:10:41,700
(metallic thud)

148
00:10:44,500 --> 00:10:45,660
(pulsating music)

149
00:10:46,060 --> 00:10:47,060
Hey!

150
00:10:48,820 --> 00:10:49,860
(groans)

151
00:10:51,580 --> 00:10:52,540
-(sharp, visceral squelch)
-(man groaning)

152
00:11:02,060 --> 00:11:03,460
(metallic clanking)

153
00:11:06,980 --> 00:11:08,100
Hey!

154
00:11:18,180 --> 00:11:19,140
Babu!

155
00:11:20,540 --> 00:11:21,820
(high-pitched, screaming whistle)

156
00:11:23,660 --> 00:11:24,820
(metal shuddering)

157
00:11:28,060 --> 00:11:29,220
(continuous hiss)

158
00:11:36,740 --> 00:11:37,940
(metallic thud)

159
00:11:38,260 --> 00:11:39,180
(groans)

160
00:11:39,540 --> 00:11:40,580
(metallic thud)

161
00:11:46,060 --> 00:11:47,100
(screams) Johny!

162
00:11:47,140 --> 00:11:48,060
(heavy thud)

163
00:11:50,340 --> 00:11:51,940
This won't end with me, Muthu.

164
00:11:52,460 --> 00:11:53,700
You need to die.

165
00:11:53,980 --> 00:11:55,780
That will be the end of everything.

166
00:11:56,020 --> 00:11:57,060
(irritated shout)

167
00:11:59,460 --> 00:12:00,460
(wet, tearing slice)

168
00:12:01,140 --> 00:12:02,060
(sharp slice)

169
00:12:02,220 --> 00:12:03,140
(Johny groans)

170
00:12:04,860 --> 00:12:06,060
(heavy thud)

171
00:12:07,820 --> 00:12:08,820
(Johny screaming in pain)

172
00:12:12,140 --> 00:12:13,180
(screaming continues)

173
00:12:16,620 --> 00:12:17,780
(metallic thud)

174
00:12:21,740 --> 00:12:23,060
(screaming continues)

175
00:12:27,100 --> 00:12:28,460
(music swells)

176
00:12:51,900 --> 00:12:53,140
(goat bleating)

177
00:13:03,740 --> 00:13:04,740
Give it here.

178
00:13:05,060 --> 00:13:06,220
Come.
Karuppu.

179
00:13:06,260 --> 00:13:07,260
Come here.

180
00:13:09,900 --> 00:13:10,820
Hey...

181
00:13:10,940 --> 00:13:12,380
Take it.
Hold this.

182
00:13:13,460 --> 00:13:15,140
You asked for
a pregnant goat.

183
00:13:15,380 --> 00:13:16,900
-Keep this.
-Boss.

184
00:13:18,900 --> 00:13:19,820
Hey.

185
00:13:20,460 --> 00:13:24,100
Whether you like it or not, you need
to do everything for this goat.

186
00:13:24,940 --> 00:13:27,140
Because this is your goat.
Okay?

187
00:13:27,940 --> 00:13:29,340
(tender music)

188
00:13:32,220 --> 00:13:34,260
While I'm on my way, I'll leave
the hay for the goat at your place.

189
00:13:36,500 --> 00:13:37,860
Don't tell my mother.

190
00:13:38,140 --> 00:13:39,140
Okay, boss.

191
00:13:41,460 --> 00:13:43,220
(music swells)

192
00:13:45,700 --> 00:13:46,700
Boss!

193
00:13:47,260 --> 00:13:48,740
I'll forever be grateful
to you, boss.

194
00:13:50,700 --> 00:13:51,740
Stay well, boss!

195
00:13:59,220 --> 00:14:00,500
Come, let's go.

196
00:14:04,540 --> 00:14:06,100
(peacock calling)

197
00:14:18,900 --> 00:14:20,700
(Thangamudi) He committed three
murders at the factory in Kerala.

198
00:14:21,180 --> 00:14:23,220
Two murders at the festival.

199
00:14:23,540 --> 00:14:24,860
So, he committed five murders.
That's fine.

200
00:14:25,020 --> 00:14:26,900
But the restaurant guy
said he killed seven people.

201
00:14:26,980 --> 00:14:27,940
Who would they be?

202
00:14:28,140 --> 00:14:31,420
(Sidharthan) We know very little
about Muthu and Sivettan's lives.

203
00:14:31,900 --> 00:14:34,660
Now I understand
why he's called "Kaattaan."

204
00:14:34,780 --> 00:14:35,900
Mm-hmm.

205
00:14:35,940 --> 00:14:37,700
-This is a strange case.
-Sir!

206
00:14:38,500 --> 00:14:39,620
Look at this, sir.

207
00:14:39,700 --> 00:14:40,820
(intense music)

208
00:14:42,500 --> 00:14:44,060
There's something written
as "Muthu" in this.

209
00:14:45,420 --> 00:14:48,020
Sir, what's written here?
Read it and tell us.

210
00:14:49,380 --> 00:14:51,940
It's about the three killings
at a factory in Aluva.

211
00:14:52,020 --> 00:14:54,220
-Muthu already gave us a clue.
-Okay?

212
00:14:54,380 --> 00:14:55,980
-But we didn't notice.
-Oh, God!

213
00:15:01,580 --> 00:15:02,980
I have a theory now.

214
00:15:03,820 --> 00:15:05,060
I will explain.

215
00:15:07,860 --> 00:15:09,300
From Benny's words,

216
00:15:09,340 --> 00:15:12,460
we understand that Johny hired men
from Madurai when he was in jail

217
00:15:12,500 --> 00:15:14,220
and killed Sivettan.

218
00:15:14,740 --> 00:15:18,060
Muthu got to know that the killers
came from Madurai or Dindigul.

219
00:15:18,500 --> 00:15:21,980
He took on the role of
a dung dealer to find them.

220
00:15:22,660 --> 00:15:24,860
It became easier for him

221
00:15:24,940 --> 00:15:26,820
when he joined as a driver
for the Kanmani Dance Troupe.

222
00:15:27,340 --> 00:15:30,900
At all the temple festivals
around Madurai

223
00:15:31,020 --> 00:15:35,740
and wherever people gathered,
he could easily look for the killers.

224
00:15:36,180 --> 00:15:38,020
Johny's men also came
in search of Muthu

225
00:15:38,060 --> 00:15:40,300
to the Kanmani Dance Troupe.

226
00:15:40,780 --> 00:15:44,500
During the Ponnumaarapatti
Festival in 2014,

227
00:15:44,540 --> 00:15:48,180
Muthu saw Mokkarasu and Thadiyan,
the ones who killed Sivettan.

228
00:15:48,540 --> 00:15:51,220
He killed them instantly

229
00:15:51,300 --> 00:15:52,820
and disappeared.

230
00:15:52,980 --> 00:15:56,900
Once Johny was released from jail,
he killed him to take his revenge.

231
00:15:56,980 --> 00:15:59,020
He might've wanted to keep
the dangers around him

232
00:15:59,260 --> 00:16:03,500
from affecting Meena
and the people he cared about.

233
00:16:03,900 --> 00:16:05,740
But why this mysterious murder?

234
00:16:06,660 --> 00:16:08,380
A severed head in a barren land.

235
00:16:08,420 --> 00:16:09,980
And a lot of cash near it.

236
00:16:10,580 --> 00:16:14,500
Muthu cleverly used the policemen
of Periyaveerampatti

237
00:16:14,620 --> 00:16:16,100
to his advantage.

238
00:16:17,060 --> 00:16:20,940
We wandered around Kerala and
Tamil Nadu carrying his picture

239
00:16:20,940 --> 00:16:25,220
to inform everyone of his death,
just as his relatives would have.

240
00:16:25,700 --> 00:16:30,620
Johny's men, Sengal Soola Ravi
and many others we didn't know

241
00:16:30,740 --> 00:16:32,500
wouldn't search for Muthu anymore.

242
00:16:33,020 --> 00:16:35,420
It's a form of protection for Meena.

243
00:16:36,060 --> 00:16:39,220
He used us to advertise his death.

244
00:16:39,940 --> 00:16:42,700
But why did Muthu go
to the mental hospital?

245
00:16:43,020 --> 00:16:45,300
How was his head cut off?

246
00:16:45,820 --> 00:16:47,140
Where is his body?

247
00:16:47,220 --> 00:16:48,700
There are no answers.

248
00:16:49,740 --> 00:16:51,540
It is an unsolved case.

249
00:16:58,180 --> 00:16:59,980
(poignant music)

250
00:17:17,180 --> 00:17:18,860
(tender, melancholic music)

251
00:17:28,860 --> 00:17:30,020
(metallic thud)

252
00:17:46,620 --> 00:17:47,980
(scraping continues)

253
00:18:17,220 --> 00:18:18,140
Let's go.

254
00:18:50,740 --> 00:18:51,660
Hey.

255
00:18:53,220 --> 00:18:54,820
That ₹2 lakh belongs to you.

256
00:18:55,540 --> 00:18:57,780
Sir, I don't need this money.

257
00:18:58,300 --> 00:18:59,900
I swear I didn't do this for money.

258
00:19:00,420 --> 00:19:01,700
You're the one who buried him.

259
00:19:01,780 --> 00:19:03,180
It belongs to you.

260
00:19:04,020 --> 00:19:05,020
You will get it.

261
00:19:05,260 --> 00:19:06,700
This was Muthu's wish.

262
00:19:14,180 --> 00:19:15,780
(sniffles, clears throat)

263
00:19:18,500 --> 00:19:20,390
-Sir, no...
-(Sidharthan tsks)

264
00:19:20,420 --> 00:19:21,380
Forget it.

265
00:19:21,380 --> 00:19:22,540
Do you have any booze?

266
00:19:23,900 --> 00:19:24,980
I do, sir.

267
00:19:26,780 --> 00:19:27,940
(peacock calling in distance)

268
00:20:08,100 --> 00:20:11,500
MOM - MUTHU - DAD

269
00:20:13,900 --> 00:20:15,020
(silent mouthing)

270
00:20:20,620 --> 00:20:22,020
(tender music swells)

271
00:21:03,380 --> 00:21:05,100
(triumphant, swelling chords)

272
00:21:20,940 --> 00:21:21,940
Hey!

273
00:21:22,300 --> 00:21:23,380
Stop!

274
00:21:23,420 --> 00:21:24,420
You son of Kaattaan!

275
00:21:24,460 --> 00:21:26,060
Hey, stop.

276
00:21:26,780 --> 00:21:28,780
Where do you think
you're running off to? Come on.

277
00:21:28,900 --> 00:21:29,900
Shall we go inside?

278
00:21:29,930 --> 00:21:31,660
(kisses) Come on.

279
00:21:32,580 --> 00:21:34,540
(warm, swelling orchestral music)

280
00:21:46,780 --> 00:21:48,100
