00:01:04,330 --> 00:01:07,290
ZILLA PARISHAD GIRLS HIGH SCHOOL,
SILERU, ALLURI SITHARAMA RAJU DISTRICT

2
00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:32,870
Ma'am! Ma'am! Please, ma'am.

3
00:01:33,700 --> 00:01:35,620
Ma'am! No, ma'am!

4
00:01:36,500 --> 00:01:38,290
NAMASTE
THANK YOU

5
00:01:47,080 --> 00:01:50,040
I ditched a high-paying
private-sector job,

6
00:01:50,700 --> 00:01:54,750
traveled all this way
on a dusty government bus

7
00:01:55,080 --> 00:01:58,830
just to teach you guys,
and this is how you score?!

8
00:02:02,120 --> 00:02:03,040
Hold out your hand.

9
00:02:03,660 --> 00:02:04,580
Don't hit me, ma'am.

10
00:02:05,160 --> 00:02:06,040
Look here.

11
00:02:07,200 --> 00:02:08,120
Look here!

12
00:02:15,660 --> 00:02:18,830
Budge before evening, and you're dead!

13
00:02:27,250 --> 00:02:28,790
You should've just studied
like madam said.

14
00:02:29,290 --> 00:02:30,160
You never listen!

15
00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:34,500
Hey, get inside! Now!

16
00:03:08,580 --> 00:03:09,660
Will you kill them for bad grades?

17
00:03:10,910 --> 00:03:13,120
Teachers like you
are a threat to education.

18
00:03:13,870 --> 00:03:16,290
I am going to suspend you
for one year. Get out!

19
00:03:46,950 --> 00:03:47,830
Brother...

20
00:03:50,660 --> 00:03:53,080
Don't honk near
the temple junction, brother.

21
00:03:53,250 --> 00:03:54,910
Trinadh's daughter is asleep with a fever.

22
00:03:55,120 --> 00:03:57,330
- Turn right and go around the village.
- Right. Will do.

23
00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:06,120
Stop, brother! Pull over!

24
00:04:07,910 --> 00:04:10,660
- Don't honk near the temple junction.
- Why?

25
00:04:10,750 --> 00:04:12,410
Trinadh's daughter is asleep with a fever.

26
00:04:12,660 --> 00:04:14,200
Turn right and bypass the village.

27
00:04:14,450 --> 00:04:16,790
- Who the hell are you to tell me?
- Please listen to me!

28
00:04:17,250 --> 00:04:19,910
Brother, tell him not to honk.
Don't honk, brother.

29
00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:23,040
- Hey, get lost!
- Please, brother! Brother! Brother!

30
00:04:23,750 --> 00:04:26,290
Brother, please! Don't honk, brother!

31
00:04:26,790 --> 00:04:28,290
She'll wake up.

32
00:04:38,870 --> 00:04:41,540
Brother! Please don't honk!

33
00:04:42,040 --> 00:04:43,000
Please listen to me!

34
00:04:43,830 --> 00:04:46,410
Don't you understand?
I'm talking to you!

35
00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:03,080
Hey, who are you?

36
00:05:06,200 --> 00:05:07,160
HEY!

37
00:05:18,620 --> 00:05:21,660
Hey! Didn't I send someone to tell you

38
00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:24,870
my daughter has a fever
and ask you not to honk?

39
00:05:26,370 --> 00:05:29,370
No more honking until you cross Polluru.

40
00:05:30,250 --> 00:05:31,160
Go!

41
00:05:33,500 --> 00:05:36,790
Grandma, my daughter complained
you didn't give her thick chutney.

42
00:05:36,870 --> 00:05:39,540
- I packed the thick chutney only, dear.
- You did, right?

43
00:05:39,660 --> 00:05:40,540
Yes.

44
00:05:42,660 --> 00:05:44,500
- Hey, Suri! Deliver this home.
- Brother?

45
00:05:44,950 --> 00:05:48,120
Also, did Donkarayi Seenu
fix the phone yet?

46
00:05:48,200 --> 00:05:51,250
- He will return it today, brother.
- Go get it. She'll ask when she wakes up.

47
00:05:51,330 --> 00:05:53,450
Whether she's eating or bugging me,
she needs the phone!

48
00:05:53,540 --> 00:05:54,410
- Okay? Go.
- Okay.

49
00:05:54,870 --> 00:05:56,000
- Hey, Suri.
- Brother?

50
00:05:56,620 --> 00:05:59,620
I'm going to Sileru
to buy Manamma's nose rings.

51
00:06:01,160 --> 00:06:03,330
- Don't tell Kaveri.
- Okay, brother.

52
00:06:24,410 --> 00:06:25,370
How about this?

53
00:06:25,580 --> 00:06:27,700
That's my dad, Trinadh Rama Kasu.

54
00:06:28,450 --> 00:06:32,700
My dad is one of millions
who adore their daughters.

55
00:06:32,790 --> 00:06:34,250
It might be too small.

56
00:06:34,700 --> 00:06:36,870
- My daughter has a small, delicate nose.
- I see.

57
00:06:37,160 --> 00:06:38,370
- Please pack this.
- Okay.

58
00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:41,080
This is my Dad's story.

59
00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:43,830
This is my village, Polluru.

60
00:06:43,910 --> 00:06:44,790
A YEAR AGO

61
00:06:44,870 --> 00:06:47,750
The Ayyappa Swamy Temple
beside the dam

62
00:06:47,830 --> 00:06:49,500
on our village outskirts is very sacred.

63
00:06:49,580 --> 00:06:53,540
Devotees from all over travel here
to worship Lord Ayyappa.

64
00:06:53,620 --> 00:06:55,450
<i>- Swamiye Sharanam
- Ayyappa Sharanam</i>

65
00:06:55,540 --> 00:06:57,330
Meet our Guru Swamy, Goparaju.

66
00:06:57,540 --> 00:06:59,620
He's observed
the Ayyappa vow 40 times.

67
00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:03,330
The devotees believe receiving
the sacred <i>Irumudi</i> from him

68
00:07:03,410 --> 00:07:06,540
and making the Sabarimala pilgrimage
will end all their troubles.

69
00:07:06,620 --> 00:07:08,870
Swamiye Ayyappo!

70
00:07:09,080 --> 00:07:11,830
That's my mom, Kaveri,
and I'm Manikanta.

71
00:07:12,370 --> 00:07:14,080
But where's my Dad?

72
00:07:14,580 --> 00:07:20,870

115
00:10:37,910 --> 00:10:41,120
Today is the day our devotees
return from Sabarimalai.

116
00:10:41,580 --> 00:10:43,700
My mom is quite anxious.

117
00:10:44,040 --> 00:10:47,620
Because, my dad
is going to be different from today.

118
00:10:47,700 --> 00:10:51,200
SHIVALAYAM - POLLURU

119
00:10:51,580 --> 00:10:53,700
- Swamy, over here!
- Swamy Sharanam.

120
00:10:57,330 --> 00:11:00,000
- Hey, brother.
- Let's move. Come on.

121
00:11:00,290 --> 00:11:01,700
My tongue's craving a drink, Suri.

122
00:11:01,910 --> 00:11:03,040
It's been a while.

123
00:11:04,080 --> 00:11:07,160
Oh man! It's been ages!

124
00:11:07,830 --> 00:11:10,040
- Suri, why didn't you open it?!
- Here, brother.

125
00:11:11,580 --> 00:11:12,660
It's been a while.

126
00:11:19,830 --> 00:11:21,410
Oh, man!

127
00:11:23,580 --> 00:11:26,040
I feel alive again, man!
It's been 41 days.

128
00:11:26,830 --> 00:11:27,830
- Wow! Give it here!
- Here, brother.

129
00:11:30,290 --> 00:11:31,830
- Did you pay the money?
- Yes.

130
00:11:31,910 --> 00:11:33,660
- Bushan, look over there.
- Yes?

131
00:11:35,080 --> 00:11:37,250
Trinadh has already started drinking.

132
00:11:37,330 --> 00:11:39,910
He'll stay wasted until he takes
the vow again, that drunkard!

133
00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:41,500
He even has Guru Swamy's support.

134
00:11:44,750 --> 00:11:48,000
- Ah, thank god! That's so refreshing!
- You're crazy about drinks.

135
00:11:48,250 --> 00:11:50,450
How do you stay sober
41 days every year?

136
00:11:50,620 --> 00:11:51,910
I do it all for my Manamma.

137
00:11:52,330 --> 00:11:53,870
- Hey, Suri! You carry on!
- Okay, brother.

138
00:11:54,160 --> 00:11:55,370
Hey, meet us near the dam!

139
00:11:55,450 --> 00:11:56,790
- Okay.
- Hey! Where are you going?

140
00:11:56,910 --> 00:11:58,410
- Serve us too.
- Pour it, man!

141
00:11:58,500 --> 00:12:00,120
- Hold on! Have the meat first.
- Pour, pour... pour me one too!

142
00:12:00,950 --> 00:12:04,750
- Guru Swamy, how was the pilgrimage?
- Really well! What's new in the village?

143
00:12:05,000 --> 00:12:06,830
Our village had a massive clash
with Donkarayi.

144
00:12:06,910 --> 00:12:08,540
- Don't you know?
- What happened?

145
00:12:13,250 --> 00:12:14,410
Does Trinadh know about this?

146
00:12:14,750 --> 00:12:18,830
I'll thrash you if you tell your Dad
about the village gossip!

147
00:12:20,080 --> 00:12:20,950
Manamma!

148
00:12:22,660 --> 00:12:25,330
- Dad!
- Come on! Come, come!

149
00:12:25,410 --> 00:12:28,080
My precious girl! My sweetie!

150
00:12:30,200 --> 00:12:32,620
Trinadh, did you get drunk the moment
you got off the bus?

151
00:12:32,830 --> 00:12:33,700
Be honest.

152
00:12:33,790 --> 00:12:36,660
Kaveri, I waited until we reached Polluru,
because I'm a good guy.

153
00:12:36,750 --> 00:12:38,660
The rest of the gang
started drinking in Kerala!

154
00:12:40,040 --> 00:12:40,910
Manamma!

155
00:12:41,040 --> 00:12:42,870
- Be it inside the school,
- Or outside,

156
00:12:42,950 --> 00:12:44,370
- on this side of the village,
- or the other side,

157
00:12:44,450 --> 00:12:46,450
- on this side of the riverbank...
- or across the river...

158
00:12:46,540 --> 00:12:48,580
- whatever you saw,
- must tell Dad!

159
00:12:48,660 --> 00:12:50,660
- Manamma!
- What is it?!

160
00:12:51,290 --> 00:12:54,540
A massive fight broke out between
our village and Donkarayi, Dad.

161
00:12:54,620 --> 00:12:57,200
- Really?
- Trinadh, it's nothing major.

162
00:12:57,290 --> 00:12:59,250
Just a minor scuffle
during the Kabaddi match.

163
00:12:59,660 --> 00:13:00,660
What is this, Guru Swamy?

164
00:13:00,950 --> 00:13:02,660
My daughter says it's a massive fight,

165
00:13:02,750 --> 00:13:05,080
- but you're calling it a minor scuffle.
- I'll deal with you later.

166
00:13:07,120 --> 00:13:08,160
Tell me the events, dear.

167
00:13:09,370 --> 00:13:11,790
Polluru team is leading with 20 points.

168
00:13:12,370 --> 00:13:15,200
- Donkarayi is five points behind!
- Kavya, grab her!

169
00:13:15,330 --> 00:13:16,290
Kabaddi, kabaddi, kabaddi...

170
00:13:16,410 --> 00:13:18,870
- Another point to Polluru!
- Kabaddi, kabaddi, kabaddi...

171
00:13:20,750 --> 00:13:23,200
Have those Donkarayi girls
lost their spirit?

172
00:13:23,540 --> 00:13:26,580
- Both got wiped out at once!
- Will Polluru take the cup this time too?

173
00:13:27,620 --> 00:13:28,910
Where the hell is Nagulu?

174
00:13:38,120 --> 00:13:39,870
FREE DRINKING WATER STATION

175
00:13:43,620 --> 00:13:45,870
Hey, you've played enough.
Get out of here.

176
00:13:45,950 --> 00:13:47,080
Why should we leave?

177
00:13:47,500 --> 00:13:51,000
Hey! Take off her innerwear.
Let's see how she plays then.

178
00:13:51,700 --> 00:13:54,250
Keep pulling! Keep pulling!

179
00:13:55,580 --> 00:13:57,250
Why are you all so spineless?

180
00:13:57,450 --> 00:13:59,950
What? Haven't I told you to leave?

181
00:14:00,160 --> 00:14:02,200
- Come on, play kabaddi with me
- Please let me go.

182
00:14:08,500 --> 00:14:10,200
Go on. Play now, Kabaddi.

183
00:14:10,330 --> 00:14:11,200
Pull it!

184
00:14:18,120 --> 00:14:19,250
- These sons of...
- Trinadh...

185
00:14:19,330 --> 00:14:20,910
- Listen!
- Just wait a couple of days...

186
00:14:21,580 --> 00:14:23,580
It's already too late, Guru Swamy.

187
00:14:24,290 --> 00:14:25,750
Trinadh. No.

188
00:14:26,120 --> 00:14:27,500
Swamy Sharanam.

189
00:14:33,290 --> 00:14:36,870
Mr. Erraji, now that the Polluru girls
are out, the cup is yours!

190
00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:38,660
The cup? What nonsense!

191
00:14:38,910 --> 00:14:41,870
There's old political rivalry
between Polluru and our Donkarayi.

192
00:14:42,200 --> 00:14:45,870
That's why we beat them up
whenever we can.

193
00:14:46,330 --> 00:14:48,620
Besides, our Nagulu
never accepts defeat.

194
00:15:06,290 --> 00:15:07,450
Hey! Hey!

195
00:15:07,700 --> 00:15:08,790
Hey, let go!

196
00:15:08,910 --> 00:15:11,500
- What's that?
- Mr. Erraji! Trinadh is beating up Nagulu!

197
00:15:11,580 --> 00:15:13,120
- Hey!
- Hey!

198
00:15:13,950 --> 00:15:15,290
- Hey, stop him!
- Leave him.

199
00:15:15,370 --> 00:15:17,700
- Somebody stop him.
- Take down the tent, guys!

200
00:15:17,910 --> 00:15:20,120
Don't spare him! Don't leave him!

201
00:15:21,370 --> 00:15:22,660
Finish him off!

202
00:15:22,750 --> 00:15:25,290
Hey! Trinadh is going to die
by my son's hands today!

203
00:15:25,370 --> 00:15:27,330
- Exactly!
- Hey, thrash him!

204
00:15:28,160 --> 00:15:31,660
You dare come to our village
and hit our people, you moron?

205
00:15:31,750 --> 00:15:34,700
Look! Nagulu is right here! Nagulu!

206
00:15:37,830 --> 00:15:40,160
Don't spare him! Kill him!

207
00:15:51,750 --> 00:15:53,660
- Hey!
- Thrash him!

208
00:15:54,750 --> 00:15:55,700
Wipe him out!

209
00:15:56,040 --> 00:15:58,500
You come to my village and hit me?!
You're dead meat!

210
00:16:00,330 --> 00:16:01,370
Get up, guys! Wipe him out!

211
00:16:12,250 --> 00:16:16,290
Hey! Come on, you moron!
Come on! Come.

212
00:16:16,370 --> 00:16:17,250
Hey!

213
00:16:20,450 --> 00:16:23,330
- Hey, Nagulu, get up! Hey!
- Hey! You...

214
00:16:24,370 --> 00:16:25,330
Hey!

215
00:16:32,660 --> 00:16:36,080
Hey, Trinadh! You better let him go
or it won't end well! I'm warning you!

216
00:16:36,250 --> 00:16:39,160
Hey Trinadh! I'm talking to you!
Who do you think you are?!

217
00:16:39,370 --> 00:16:40,580
Hey, let go! Just let go!

218
00:16:40,750 --> 00:16:42,500
I'm begging you, please let him go!

219
00:16:44,910 --> 00:16:46,660
Trinadh, please... let him go!

220
00:16:47,200 --> 00:16:49,870
- Trinadh! Come on, please!
- Take off your shirt!

221
00:16:50,000 --> 00:16:51,450
- Take it off!
- Take off your shirt!

222
00:16:51,620 --> 00:16:52,580
- Take it off!
- Take it off!

223
00:16:53,580 --> 00:16:56,250
- And pants! Take off your pants!
- Hey, take them off, son!

224
00:16:58,160 --> 00:17:01,790
You pay men to strip women,
you son of a gun?

225
00:17:01,910 --> 00:17:03,580
- Take them off! Strip!
- Take them off, son!

226
00:17:05,330 --> 00:17:08,410
Erraji, I have a weakness.

227
00:17:08,620 --> 00:17:13,040
A rare weakness
where I see my daughter in every girl.

228
00:17:14,120 --> 00:17:15,250
Don't mess with that.

229
00:17:16,200 --> 00:17:17,500
Hey, Nagulu!

230
00:17:17,580 --> 00:17:20,410
If you touch any Polluru girl again

231
00:17:20,660 --> 00:17:22,700
I'll burn you alive
and feed you to the vultures!

232
00:17:22,950 --> 00:17:24,750
- Filthy idiot!
- Trinadh, let him go.

233
00:17:25,870 --> 00:17:27,250
Swamy Sharanam.

234
00:17:28,950 --> 00:17:29,910
I'll kill him.

235
00:17:38,160 --> 00:17:41,870
- What is this? How long should I wait?
- He'll be here in 10 minutes.

236
00:17:42,000 --> 00:17:43,830
Will you load the banana bunches
or should I buy elsewhere?

237
00:17:44,000 --> 00:17:45,540
My husband is sentimental.

238
00:17:45,700 --> 00:17:48,620
He wants our daughter to harvest
the first bunch of our first crop.

239
00:17:48,700 --> 00:17:49,620
Ten more minutes.

240
00:17:49,790 --> 00:17:52,370
Hey Suri! Where is this
father and daughter duo?

241
00:17:56,620 --> 00:17:58,790
Darling! Can you smell anything?

242
00:17:59,160 --> 00:18:00,290
No, right? Come on.

243
00:18:00,450 --> 00:18:03,500
MANDAL PARISHAD PRIMARY SCHOOL

244
00:18:04,660 --> 00:18:05,790
Hold on! Stop!

245
00:18:06,620 --> 00:18:09,700
Why did you tell Manikanta
not to come to school, Master?

246
00:18:09,790 --> 00:18:12,120
I told her, "You can't do math
without multiplication tables!"

247
00:18:12,200 --> 00:18:14,910
She asks, "If I already know the math,
why do I need the tables, Master?"

248
00:18:15,250 --> 00:18:17,120
I just told her it was wrong. Was I wrong?

249
00:18:17,500 --> 00:18:19,080
That's not how he said it, Dad.

250
00:18:19,410 --> 00:18:24,410
With wide, terrified eyes,
he yelled that he'd skin me alive.

251
00:18:24,620 --> 00:18:26,950
Is that the way to talk to a child, sir?
It's not right.

252
00:18:27,080 --> 00:18:30,160
If she isn't picking it up, you should
explain it to her patiently, gently.

253
00:18:30,580 --> 00:18:32,580
You dare threaten to skin
my daughter alive?

254
00:18:33,910 --> 00:18:36,830
I'm sparing you because you're a teacher
who shapes young minds.

255
00:18:37,040 --> 00:18:38,660
Okay? Get off your vehicle.

256
00:18:40,750 --> 00:18:44,580
Sweetheart, bow to your teacher
and say he's forgiven.

257
00:18:48,080 --> 00:18:49,080
You're forgiven!

258
00:18:49,330 --> 00:18:51,620
- Is this how you forgive someone?
- That's the Polluru way!

259
00:18:51,700 --> 00:18:53,910
Come, darling. You can leave now.

260
00:18:57,200 --> 00:18:58,830
- Manamma!
- That's my girl!

261
00:19:00,200 --> 00:19:01,750
- Wow!
- Kaveri!

262
00:19:01,910 --> 00:19:03,410
- They started already?
- Why the delay?

263
00:19:03,500 --> 00:19:04,750
We've been waiting!

264
00:19:05,120 --> 00:19:06,620
- Kaveri! Are we late?
- Gayatri!

265
00:19:06,700 --> 00:19:09,250
No, Lakshmamma. He's been drinking
too much again, Guru Swamy.

266
00:19:09,330 --> 00:19:11,040
- Who, me?
- Then who else? Me?

267
00:19:11,120 --> 00:19:13,870
Did I touch even a single drop
of alcohol during my 41 days of vow?

268
00:19:13,950 --> 00:19:15,330
You should appreciate it.
Why are you saying all that?

269
00:19:15,410 --> 00:19:17,750
Those 41 days of your vow
are the only time I get peace.

270
00:19:18,200 --> 00:19:21,000
- Lakshmamma, won't you warn him?
- Stop drinking, son.

271
00:19:21,250 --> 00:19:23,660
Hey Suri, give that
first harvest bunch to Guru Swamy.

272
00:19:23,750 --> 00:19:24,830
- Yes, on it.
- Why do I need it now?

273
00:19:24,910 --> 00:19:25,830
What do you mean, Guru Swamy?

274
00:19:25,910 --> 00:19:27,000
- We keep the first harvest.
- Suri!

275
00:19:27,080 --> 00:19:27,950
And you get the first bunch.

276
00:19:28,040 --> 00:19:29,660
- Teach me cycling...
- Isn't it, Swamy?

277
00:19:29,830 --> 00:19:31,200
- Sure. I will.
- Swamy Sharanam!

278
00:19:31,830 --> 00:19:33,910
Guru Swamy, today's
our wedding anniversary.

279
00:19:34,700 --> 00:19:35,580
Come.

280
00:19:36,330 --> 00:19:37,620
May you live a long life.

281
00:19:37,870 --> 00:19:40,200
Hey Trinadh, she looks upset, man.

282
00:19:40,410 --> 00:19:42,950
Once you unload in Sileru,
come home sober.

283
00:19:43,200 --> 00:19:45,410
- Understand? We take your leave.
- We'll leave now, dear.

284
00:19:45,790 --> 00:19:47,700
Mani, it's time for school. I'll leave.

285
00:19:47,790 --> 00:19:51,160
Sister, Dad and I are going
to Sileru for a movie this Sunday.

286
00:19:51,250 --> 00:19:52,120
Want to come along?

287
00:19:52,500 --> 00:19:54,620
My dad won't agree, dear. Another time.

288
00:19:54,700 --> 00:19:56,500
- Let's go, dear.
- You always find an excuse, sister.

289
00:19:56,700 --> 00:19:58,700
- Stay safe, Gayatri.
- Bye, dear.

290
00:19:58,790 --> 00:19:59,750
Okay, uncle!

291
00:20:00,540 --> 00:20:01,410
Bye, sister.

292
00:20:01,500 --> 00:20:03,410
- Bye.
- Kaveri, is today our wedding anniversary?

293
00:20:03,540 --> 00:20:04,450
Why didn't you tell me?!

294
00:20:04,540 --> 00:20:07,160
- You never gave me the chance!
- I'll come home sober today.

295
00:20:09,540 --> 00:20:11,370
- I don't believe you.
- I promise I will!

296
00:20:11,450 --> 00:20:12,910
Instead of that dreadful nighty,

297
00:20:13,000 --> 00:20:16,830
dress up in my favorite green saree
and mustard-yellow blouse.

298
00:20:33,160 --> 00:20:34,330
Go! Go get it!

299
00:20:44,620 --> 00:20:46,620
<i>Yalaalo, Yalaalo!</i>

300
00:20:46,700 --> 00:20:48,580
<i>Moonlit nights and endless stories!</i>

301
00:20:48,660 --> 00:20:50,500
- Trinadh!
- Look around. Where could she have put it?

302
00:20:50,580 --> 00:20:51,910
- I don't know.
- No...

303
00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:55,370
<i>- Courtyards packed with quiet secrets</i>
- It's Saturday, Trinadh. Don't drink!

304
00:20:55,950 --> 00:20:58,500
<i>- Secrets kept from Mother's eyes</i>
- Trinadh! Listen!

305
00:20:58,580 --> 00:21:00,910
- Where, Dad?
- It's not here. Look over there.

306
00:21:01,290 --> 00:21:03,040
<i>- Let the world witness</i>
- Unlock the door.

307
00:21:03,120 --> 00:21:05,200
- Dad!
<i>- Where pure love resides!</i>

308
00:21:05,290 --> 00:21:06,700
Trinadh, I said no! Don't drink!

309
00:21:06,790 --> 00:21:09,250
<i>- Bound to the mountains</i>
- I said, Open the door.

310
00:21:09,330 --> 00:21:11,750
<i>- The forest is our home</i>
- Will you never change?

311
00:21:11,910 --> 00:21:14,500
<i>- Poverty can't touch our souls</i>
- What happened to you? Wait...

312
00:21:14,580 --> 00:21:16,200
<i>- Our world lives within us!</i>
- Kaveri, don't put him in the water.

313
00:21:16,290 --> 00:21:18,080
- He'll get a fever.
<i>- Yala, yaalo!</i>

314
00:21:18,160 --> 00:21:23,410
<i>Yaalo, what's in grand mansions?
Yaalo, what's in piles of gold?</i>

315
00:21:23,500 --> 00:21:26,580
<i>- True love fills our hearts</i>
- Dad!

316
00:21:26,910 --> 00:21:29,040
<i>Like wild streams in fields untold!</i>

317
00:21:29,120 --> 00:21:31,450
<i>Centuries will pass us by</i>

318
00:21:31,580 --> 00:21:34,120
<i>We have all the world can hold!</i>

319
00:21:34,200 --> 00:21:37,950
- Hey!
<i>- What else do we need?</i>

320
00:21:58,660 --> 00:22:01,750
The drunk who beats his wife every day?
That's him, Dad.

321
00:22:03,250 --> 00:22:06,200
How dare you hit your wife?

322
00:22:06,290 --> 00:22:07,200
I'll kill you!

323
00:22:09,120 --> 00:22:13,500
<i>A childhood rocked in a gentle cradle</i>

324
00:22:14,410 --> 00:22:19,620
<i>Bringing centuries of celebration!</i>

325
00:22:19,700 --> 00:22:24,200
<i>Life dances like a joyful game</i>

326
00:22:24,700 --> 00:22:26,450
- I said no, right?
<i>- If you're ready</i>

327
00:22:26,540 --> 00:22:29,040
- Who are you guys?
<i>- It grants a blessing</i>

328
00:22:29,120 --> 00:22:30,450
<i>- A blessing every hour!</i>
- What village are you from?

329
00:22:30,540 --> 00:22:35,250
<i>Shielding you like a protective eyelid</i>

330
00:22:35,330 --> 00:22:41,080
<i>Would this soul ever part
Even for a blink?</i>

331
00:22:41,160 --> 00:22:45,910
<i>Our time on this earth is brief</i>

332
00:22:46,040 --> 00:22:51,290
<i>Yet the bond of love endures forever!</i>

333
00:22:51,370 --> 00:22:53,120
<i>Yala, yaalo!</i>

334
00:22:53,200 --> 00:22:58,370
<i>Yaalo, what's in grand mansions?
Yaalo, what's in piles of gold?</i>

335
00:22:58,450 --> 00:23:01,700
<i>True love fills our hearts</i>

336
00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:06,330
<i>Like wild streams in fields untold!
Centuries will pass us by</i>

337
00:23:06,450 --> 00:23:13,000
<i>We have all the world can hold!
What else do we need?</i>

338
00:23:15,370 --> 00:23:16,540
SWAMIYE SHARANAM AYYAPPA

339
00:23:16,620 --> 00:23:17,540
MANIKANTA

340
00:23:18,450 --> 00:23:19,660
What are you looking at?
Go move them.

341
00:23:36,620 --> 00:23:37,580
Are you drunk?

342
00:23:37,870 --> 00:23:39,830
- Get lost.
- Come on. Sit down.

343
00:23:48,000 --> 00:23:48,870
Dad, one more.

344
00:23:48,950 --> 00:23:50,330
- Hey, how many glasses will you drink?
- Why object to everything? Let her drink.

345
00:23:50,410 --> 00:23:52,120
- She'll get a cold and cough.
<i>- Yalaalo, Yalaalo!</i>

346
00:23:52,200 --> 00:23:55,330
<i>Moonlit nights and endless stories!</i>

347
00:23:55,660 --> 00:24:00,750
<i>Yalaalo, Yalaalo!
Courtyards packed with quiet secrets!</i>

348
00:24:01,580 --> 00:24:04,160
<i>- Secrets kept from Mother's eyes</i>
- Hey, pick any one.

349
00:24:04,250 --> 00:24:06,500
<i>Royalty in Father's stride</i>

350
00:24:06,830 --> 00:24:11,540
<i>Let the world witness
Where pure love resides!</i>

351
00:24:12,250 --> 00:24:17,160
<i>Bound to the mountains
The forest is our home</i>

352
00:24:17,450 --> 00:24:21,870
<i>Poverty can't touch our souls
Our world lives within us!</i>

353
00:24:21,950 --> 00:24:23,250
<i>Yala, yaalo!</i>

354
00:24:23,330 --> 00:24:25,160
- Manamma, look over here.
- It's super!

355
00:24:26,620 --> 00:24:29,120
- Sister, you take one too.
- Gayatri, Take it, dear!

356
00:24:29,200 --> 00:24:32,290
<i>- True love fills our hearts</i>
- Give me that one.

357
00:24:32,660 --> 00:24:34,540
- Gayatri!
<i>- Like wild streams in fields untold!</i>

358
00:24:34,620 --> 00:24:36,950
<i>- Centuries will pass us by</i>
- Buy a chudidar, dear.

359
00:24:37,040 --> 00:24:39,830
<i>We have all the world can hold!</i>

360
00:24:39,950 --> 00:24:43,580
Dad! Late today too?
I won't talk to you, go away!

361
00:24:44,790 --> 00:24:46,500
I'm coming, Manamma. I'm coming.

362
00:24:55,870 --> 00:24:56,910
One more bite, dear.

363
00:24:57,750 --> 00:24:58,700
That's it!

364
00:25:00,120 --> 00:25:02,370
Are you listening, Dad?

365
00:25:11,580 --> 00:25:14,410
Hey, did you remove the dead hens?

366
00:25:14,540 --> 00:25:16,330
- Yes, I did, sir.
- Come here.

367
00:25:22,830 --> 00:25:24,910
- Where are the other boys?
- They'll come tomorrow, sir!

368
00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:26,500
Taking leave just 10 days into the job?

369
00:25:27,000 --> 00:25:28,870
Here's the pay.
Tell them to work from tomorrow!

370
00:25:28,950 --> 00:25:29,830
Will do, sir!

371
00:25:51,750 --> 00:25:53,500
This guy is getting out of hand, man.

372
00:25:54,160 --> 00:25:55,830
We must find him a girl urgently.

373
00:26:03,330 --> 00:26:06,200
Brother! The bus is here.

374
00:26:07,290 --> 00:26:09,080
- How was the exam, sister?
- I did well.

375
00:26:10,290 --> 00:26:13,540
Sowji, you wanted my books
after my tenth grade exams, right?

376
00:26:13,620 --> 00:26:14,500
Yes, sister.

377
00:26:16,040 --> 00:26:17,250
- Take them.
- Thank you, sister.

378
00:26:17,330 --> 00:26:19,540
- Which college are you joining, sister?
- I'm not joining college.

379
00:26:19,620 --> 00:26:21,660
- I'll get married and move away.
- Marriage?!

380
00:26:26,080 --> 00:26:29,200
SILERU - DONKARAYI

381
00:26:29,290 --> 00:26:31,500
PALLE VELUGU

382
00:26:32,660 --> 00:26:34,250
All of you must attend
the wedding, Gayatri!

383
00:26:34,330 --> 00:26:36,410
- Will do, sister. Who's the groom?
- My brother-in-law!

384
00:26:36,500 --> 00:26:37,370
What about your studies?

385
00:26:37,450 --> 00:26:39,450
I'll study after the wedding.
What's wrong with that?

386
00:26:39,540 --> 00:26:40,950
The cycle has a flat tire.

387
00:26:44,790 --> 00:26:46,620
Did you guys deflate the cycle tires?

388
00:26:49,580 --> 00:26:52,450
If you do this again,
I'll tell our village elders!

389
00:26:54,250 --> 00:26:55,200
Do you like her?

390
00:26:55,700 --> 00:26:58,120
Hey, what are you talking about?

391
00:26:58,950 --> 00:27:00,410
Are you guys brainless?

392
00:27:04,120 --> 00:27:06,080
- Sister! Don't fight.
- Let it go, sister.

393
00:27:06,290 --> 00:27:08,080
- We're going.
- Okay, then. Take care.

394
00:27:21,660 --> 00:27:22,540
POLLURU

395
00:27:22,620 --> 00:27:24,000
I wonder when we'll get a bus
to our village.

396
00:27:24,790 --> 00:27:26,580
Why are Gayatri and the others
pushing their cycles?

397
00:27:27,500 --> 00:27:28,370
Dad!

398
00:27:30,450 --> 00:27:32,830
We can't get down
at the Donkarayi bus stop, Dad.

399
00:27:33,040 --> 00:27:35,250
All those good-for-nothings
are hanging around there.

400
00:27:35,410 --> 00:27:38,540
They deflate our cycle tires,
then follow and harass us.

401
00:27:45,250 --> 00:27:49,000
Trinadh is coming.
He beat up Erraji's son yesterday.

402
00:27:49,330 --> 00:27:51,620
There will be another huge fight
if he finds out.

403
00:27:51,700 --> 00:27:53,370
- Look here, Gayatri!
- Yes, Dad.

404
00:27:53,450 --> 00:27:55,160
Don't tell Trinadh about this.

405
00:27:57,910 --> 00:27:58,950
Where are you going, Trinadh?

406
00:28:01,120 --> 00:28:03,750
Manamma wanted to eat chili fritters,
so we're going to Donkarayi.

407
00:28:04,200 --> 00:28:05,540
Why? Aren't ours fritters?

408
00:28:05,750 --> 00:28:07,910
Fritters are fried
in cooking oil, not engine oil.

409
00:28:08,160 --> 00:28:09,660
Want to eat them, Manamma?

410
00:28:10,500 --> 00:28:11,660
That's how your food is.

411
00:28:12,200 --> 00:28:13,080
Why, Trinadh?

412
00:28:13,250 --> 00:28:15,410
You take your daughter so far
just for fritters...

413
00:28:15,580 --> 00:28:17,200
why can't you send her to high school?

414
00:28:17,290 --> 00:28:19,250
For my daughter
to attend senior high school,

415
00:28:19,330 --> 00:28:21,870
we need a bus to our village...
or a school here.

416
00:28:21,950 --> 00:28:24,660
She shouldn't have to struggle
cycling on that gravel road.

417
00:28:33,120 --> 00:28:34,910
The tires are flat. What happened, dear?

418
00:28:35,950 --> 00:28:37,950
Hey! It's nothing, man.

419
00:28:38,290 --> 00:28:40,870
It's summer, right?
The heat made the tubes go flat.

420
00:28:41,330 --> 00:28:43,620
- How did it happen to all three cycles?
- Yeah.

421
00:28:44,540 --> 00:28:45,910
Your daughter is very smart, man.

422
00:28:46,620 --> 00:28:48,790
Once my daughter thinks of a question,

423
00:28:48,870 --> 00:28:50,700
she won't stop until she finds the answer.

424
00:28:52,370 --> 00:28:55,000
- Okay, it's from the heat, right?
- That's it, uncle.

425
00:28:55,080 --> 00:28:56,750
- That's it? Nothing else?
- Yes.

426
00:28:56,950 --> 00:28:57,910
Okay. Let's go, dear.

427
00:28:58,040 --> 00:28:58,910
Okay.

428
00:29:01,450 --> 00:29:02,450
Bye.

429
00:29:03,790 --> 00:29:06,330
BHUSHAN TIFFIN CENTER

430
00:29:06,410 --> 00:29:07,370
You girls go on.

431
00:29:12,750 --> 00:29:15,040
The girls in our village
are facing a lot of trouble, Guru Swamy.

432
00:29:15,410 --> 00:29:18,080
If you talk to MLA Bujji,
we might find a solution.

433
00:29:20,120 --> 00:29:22,080
- Long live...
- MLA Bujji sir!

434
00:29:22,160 --> 00:29:23,700
- Greetings!
- The MLA is here.

435
00:29:23,790 --> 00:29:25,120
Guru Swamy! The MLA is here.

436
00:29:25,200 --> 00:29:26,290
Happy birthday, sir.

437
00:29:26,370 --> 00:29:27,830
- Happy birthday, sir.
- Thank you. Thank you.

438
00:29:28,080 --> 00:29:28,950
MLA sir.

439
00:29:29,790 --> 00:29:30,830
Thank you.

440
00:29:30,910 --> 00:29:32,910
- Mr. Guru Swamy!
- Greetings, sir.

441
00:29:33,580 --> 00:29:35,040
- How are you?
- I'm good.

442
00:29:35,370 --> 00:29:37,040
- May you have a long life!
- Thank you.

443
00:29:37,700 --> 00:29:40,910
Your blessings on my birthday.
I will win the next election too!

444
00:29:41,160 --> 00:29:42,580
- Swamy Sharanam!
- Mr. Bujji...

445
00:29:43,370 --> 00:29:45,160
I need to discuss something important.

446
00:29:48,080 --> 00:29:48,950
Take it.

447
00:29:51,450 --> 00:29:53,580
Mr. Bujji, as you already know...

448
00:29:53,830 --> 00:29:56,500
Polluru only has an elementary school.

449
00:29:56,830 --> 00:29:59,660
To attend high school, the kids
have to come all the way to Sileru.

450
00:30:00,290 --> 00:30:01,910
And the bus only goes up to Donkarayi.

451
00:30:02,250 --> 00:30:07,330
Then, the girls struggle,
pedaling four kilometers on a dirt road.

452
00:30:07,410 --> 00:30:10,540
I tried hard to sanction a high school
to your village, Guru Swamy.

453
00:30:11,410 --> 00:30:12,910
I can't do it alone, right?

454
00:30:14,660 --> 00:30:18,330
But we can do one thing.
I'll ensure the bus runs to your village.

455
00:30:19,830 --> 00:30:22,660
- What say, Madhu? We can do it, right?
- Yes sir. We can.

456
00:30:24,790 --> 00:30:26,450
- Are you happy?
- Yes.

457
00:30:27,120 --> 00:30:28,000
Are you happy?

458
00:30:28,080 --> 00:30:29,250
- We're happy, sir.
- Yes, sir.

459
00:30:30,950 --> 00:30:33,290
You also mentioned repainting
the Ayyappa Temple, right?

460
00:30:33,500 --> 00:30:35,750
We'll paint it once <i>Karthika</i> month starts.

461
00:30:36,120 --> 00:30:37,200
- Madhu?
- Sir!

462
00:30:40,200 --> 00:30:41,540
- Have this.
- It's alright, Mr. Bujji.

463
00:30:41,620 --> 00:30:44,000
Don't delay God's work. Please.

464
00:30:44,620 --> 00:30:47,080
- Swamiye Sharanam Ayyappa.
- Sharanam Ayyappa.

465
00:30:50,540 --> 00:30:52,910
- Kaveri, check over there.
- Suri's handling it.

466
00:30:53,580 --> 00:30:56,200
The food is excellent.
What's the special occasion?

467
00:30:56,450 --> 00:30:57,500
- You from the next village?
- Yeah.

468
00:30:57,580 --> 00:31:00,040
- Our daughter has graduated
- Engineering? Medicine?

469
00:31:00,290 --> 00:31:02,080
- Fifth grade. Have it.
- Huh?

470
00:31:03,580 --> 00:31:05,000
HEARTFELT CONGRATULATIONS TO MY
DEAR MANIKANTA ON PASSING THE 5TH GRADE!

471
00:31:05,700 --> 00:31:06,790
Enough, enough.

472
00:31:07,160 --> 00:31:09,040
Girls must eat well. Eat up.

473
00:31:11,540 --> 00:31:13,500
- Shall I serve you some sambar, Master?
- That's enough, dear.

474
00:31:13,580 --> 00:31:15,620
- Enough, enough.
- Please eat, Master.

475
00:31:15,700 --> 00:31:17,580
- There he is.
- What is it, man? Eat.

476
00:31:17,870 --> 00:31:18,950
Is there nothing for us?

477
00:31:19,080 --> 00:31:20,790
Oh boy! Got it.

478
00:31:21,700 --> 00:31:23,950
- Go on. Come back soon.
- Let's go.

479
00:31:25,620 --> 00:31:28,040
- Kaveri!
- Lakshmamma, please come.

480
00:31:28,160 --> 00:31:29,370
Hey, why are you late?

481
00:31:29,660 --> 00:31:32,080
- What's all this, dear?
- Ask him.

482
00:31:32,660 --> 00:31:34,870
My little girl passed fifth grade.
Look over there.

483
00:31:35,080 --> 00:31:37,580
- Wow! It's a very big deal, man.
- Yeah!

484
00:31:37,660 --> 00:31:40,910
- Come!
- If you throw a feast for every result,

485
00:31:41,000 --> 00:31:44,160
- you'll have to sell your last two acres.
- It's my daughter, my wish.

486
00:31:45,040 --> 00:31:46,790
Please sit, Guru Swamy.
I will serve you food.

487
00:31:46,870 --> 00:31:48,250
- Come, dear.
- Greetings, Guru Swamy.

488
00:31:49,620 --> 00:31:52,200
- Come here for a second.
- What is it, man?

489
00:31:53,830 --> 00:31:56,580
- No, man. It won't look good.
- Only two pegs. Come on.

490
00:31:57,290 --> 00:31:58,160
Hey!

491
00:31:59,200 --> 00:32:00,080
Cheers!

492
00:32:12,910 --> 00:32:13,790
Trinadh?

493
00:32:15,080 --> 00:32:17,250
Why are you so crazy
about your daughter?

494
00:32:18,080 --> 00:32:19,370
Do you remember, Guru Swamy?

495
00:32:19,620 --> 00:32:23,080
Kaveri married a rough guy
like me, defying her family.

496
00:32:23,580 --> 00:32:26,500
When we didn't have kids
four years after marriage,

497
00:32:26,660 --> 00:32:28,450
she faced so many insults...

498
00:32:29,370 --> 00:32:32,620
but she never once complained
or showed her pain to me.

499
00:32:34,200 --> 00:32:37,500
Moreover, if anyone said anything
against me regarding that,

500
00:32:37,580 --> 00:32:38,870
she'd get fiercely defensive.

501
00:32:39,830 --> 00:32:40,870
But Swamy...

502
00:32:42,080 --> 00:32:45,200
Whenever I saw the pain
of childlessness in her eyes...

503
00:32:47,580 --> 00:32:49,500
it felt like a needle
piercing my heart, Swamy.

504
00:32:51,580 --> 00:32:53,080
Then, you advised me.

505
00:32:53,830 --> 00:32:55,910
That taking the Swamy vow
would fulfill my wishes.

506
00:32:56,410 --> 00:32:59,160
I went to Sabarimala
and prayed to the Lord.

507
00:32:59,540 --> 00:33:01,250
My precious daughter was born.

508
00:33:01,580 --> 00:33:02,910
Swamy Sharanam!

509
00:33:03,790 --> 00:33:06,620
Believing that Lord Ayyappa himself
was born as my daughter...

510
00:33:07,080 --> 00:33:08,790
I named her Manikanta.

511
00:33:11,000 --> 00:33:14,790
Whatever I do for her
is like serving God, Swamy.

512
00:33:14,870 --> 00:33:18,660
A girl isn't to be kept at home
like God in a temple.

513
00:33:18,750 --> 00:33:21,700
We must send her to school and college.

514
00:33:22,000 --> 00:33:23,620
And later, to another house.

515
00:33:24,160 --> 00:33:25,410
Send her where?

516
00:33:25,870 --> 00:33:28,500
If I have to, I'll make her
repeat fifth grade here.

517
00:33:29,620 --> 00:33:32,540
Hey! Turn this way. Turn!

518
00:33:33,870 --> 00:33:35,200
We finally got a bus to Polluru!

519
00:33:37,040 --> 00:33:38,700
The MLA promised me yesterday.

520
00:33:39,370 --> 00:33:42,000
Our girls don't have to ride
bicycles anymore.

521
00:33:42,120 --> 00:33:43,080
They can take the bus.

522
00:33:44,040 --> 00:33:45,950
The bus issue is finally sorted.

523
00:33:46,500 --> 00:33:48,450
Hey, what's wrong?

524
00:33:48,660 --> 00:33:50,540
Your daughter
will take the bus to school.

525
00:33:51,830 --> 00:33:54,000
- Agree to it.
- Just agree, man!

526
00:33:54,410 --> 00:33:55,620
Say yes, Trinadh.

527
00:33:56,500 --> 00:33:57,450
Just say yes.

528
00:34:27,200 --> 00:34:30,950
Sir! Sir! Sir! A body! A dead body!

529
00:34:31,290 --> 00:34:33,250
Oh, Anusha... my dear...

530
00:34:34,160 --> 00:34:35,950
A dead body, first thing in the morning.

531
00:34:36,040 --> 00:34:37,000
What rotten luck!

532
00:34:37,870 --> 00:34:39,500
I heard she drank pesticide.

533
00:34:41,870 --> 00:34:43,040
Oh, dear!

534
00:34:53,160 --> 00:34:56,660
Didn't I tell you that you could study
after getting married?

535
00:34:56,750 --> 00:34:58,080
It can't be that.

536
00:34:58,410 --> 00:34:59,910
She must've been in love with someone.

537
00:35:00,120 --> 00:35:02,870
When they arranged her marriage,
she drank pesticide and died.

538
00:35:03,830 --> 00:35:05,290
Anusha wasn't like that.

539
00:35:05,620 --> 00:35:07,700
- She was a very good student.
- Oh!

540
00:35:07,830 --> 00:35:10,330
Why would she tell you?
It's young blood!

541
00:35:10,700 --> 00:35:11,700
Come on.

542
00:35:12,450 --> 00:35:13,410
Hey, move aside.

543
00:35:13,830 --> 00:35:16,580
Mr. Erraji, I hope Nagulu
isn't involved in this.

544
00:35:16,660 --> 00:35:19,660
Shut your mouth, you scoundrel.
It's been months since I last saw him.

545
00:35:19,830 --> 00:35:22,700
After Trinadh humiliated him,
I don't even know where he ran off to.

546
00:35:27,790 --> 00:35:31,250
Why should we even go on living?

547
00:35:32,660 --> 00:35:35,830
Anusha, you left us...

548
00:35:35,910 --> 00:35:37,120
My child!

549
00:35:40,620 --> 00:35:42,830
How are we supposed to live without you?

550
00:35:43,620 --> 00:35:45,700
TWO MONTHS LATER

551
00:35:49,500 --> 00:35:52,830
- Guru Swamy? Are you happy now?
- Very happy, Mr. Bujji.

552
00:35:53,950 --> 00:35:55,330
You should all study hard

553
00:35:55,410 --> 00:35:57,250
- and achieve great things.
- Okay, sir!

554
00:35:57,330 --> 00:35:59,120
- We must educate our girls.
- Okay, sir!

555
00:35:59,200 --> 00:36:02,200
You're in high school now.
If you misbehave, they'll throw you out.

556
00:36:02,750 --> 00:36:06,200
- Hey, why all this now?
- Don't start now.

557
00:36:06,450 --> 00:36:09,080
Manamma, this is the first time
you're traveling so far without me.

558
00:36:09,160 --> 00:36:12,750
- Don't worry.
- You're worried, aren't you?

559
00:36:13,700 --> 00:36:14,580
Alright.

560
00:36:14,830 --> 00:36:16,620
- Inside the school...
- Or outside

561
00:36:16,700 --> 00:36:18,250
- inside the village...
- or outside

562
00:36:18,330 --> 00:36:19,830
- This side of the river...
- or the other.

563
00:36:19,910 --> 00:36:21,750
- Whatever you see...
- tell Dad exactly as it is.

564
00:36:21,830 --> 00:36:23,040
My darling.

565
00:36:23,250 --> 00:36:26,200
- Hey, Trinadh. Hurry up!
- Yeah, yeah, we're coming.

566
00:36:26,410 --> 00:36:27,370
Here, take this.

567
00:36:28,700 --> 00:36:29,750
Sit with Gayatri.

568
00:36:29,830 --> 00:36:31,370
- Alright, bye, Mom!
- Manamma, take care!

569
00:36:32,160 --> 00:36:33,250
Sit with your sister and hold her hand.

570
00:36:33,330 --> 00:36:34,290
- Alright, Dad!
- Dear, Gayatri!

571
00:36:34,370 --> 00:36:35,250
- Take care of her.
- Behave yourself.

572
00:36:35,330 --> 00:36:36,410
- I'll take care of her, Uncle.
- Okay.

573
00:36:36,580 --> 00:36:38,790
Manamma, don't worry.
Gayatri is with you.

574
00:36:38,870 --> 00:36:40,910
- Manamma, finish your lunch on time,
- Uncle, bye.

575
00:36:41,000 --> 00:36:42,200
- or you'll feel weak.
- Alright, Dad.

576
00:36:42,290 --> 00:36:43,750
Take care, dear.

577
00:36:43,830 --> 00:36:45,330
- Bye, Dad!
- Bye, uncle!

578
00:36:48,120 --> 00:36:49,450
- I'll get going, Guru Swamy.
- Hey, Trinadh...

579
00:36:49,540 --> 00:36:51,080
- Mr. Bujji.
- Greetings, sir.

580
00:36:51,160 --> 00:36:53,700
This is Trinadh.
He sings Ayyappa songs really well.

581
00:36:54,540 --> 00:36:56,580
Is it? I'll listen to his songs next time.

582
00:36:56,870 --> 00:36:58,950
- Suri, hurry up! Bring the bananas.
- Okay.

583
00:36:59,200 --> 00:37:00,080
Come!

584
00:37:01,080 --> 00:37:05,790
If I see God in someone,
I offer them a sacred bunch of bananas.

585
00:37:05,910 --> 00:37:08,250
Why are you making me out to be God?

586
00:37:08,870 --> 00:37:10,660
Better be careful with Lord.

587
00:37:10,790 --> 00:37:12,410
<i>- Swamiye Sharanam Ayyappa.
- Swamy Sharanam</i>

588
00:37:12,910 --> 00:37:15,000
- Hey, put it in the trunk.
- I'll get going, Mr. Guru Swamy.

589
00:37:15,080 --> 00:37:17,120
- In the trunk.
- Let's go.

590
00:37:20,580 --> 00:37:22,830
Sister, this is so beautiful.

591
00:37:23,500 --> 00:37:24,910
I like it.

592
00:37:25,950 --> 00:37:27,830
- I really like it.
- Is it?

593
00:37:30,000 --> 00:37:33,910
Mani, it's time for class now.
Your classroom is right there.

594
00:37:34,000 --> 00:37:37,200
- I'll meet you at lunch, okay?
- Okay! Bye, sister!

595
00:37:37,330 --> 00:37:38,500
- Bye!
- Bye!

596
00:37:43,500 --> 00:37:45,660
- Did you see her today? Really?
- Yes.

597
00:37:52,910 --> 00:37:57,450
Did you think you could have fun
while I was suspended?

598
00:37:59,040 --> 00:38:02,620
No one can force me out of here.

599
00:38:03,410 --> 00:38:04,410
Sit down.

600
00:38:06,830 --> 00:38:11,040
Congratulations in advance
on entering 10th grade.

601
00:38:11,870 --> 00:38:13,330
Based on your 9th grade marks,

602
00:38:13,410 --> 00:38:16,330
I've selected the students
I want to see as 10th grade toppers

603
00:38:16,870 --> 00:38:18,450
for special class.

604
00:38:20,290 --> 00:38:21,540
Sowjanya...

605
00:38:24,750 --> 00:38:25,830
Gayatri...

606
00:38:28,700 --> 00:38:29,580
Good!

607
00:38:31,540 --> 00:38:34,160
I have high hopes for all of you.

608
00:38:36,660 --> 00:38:38,080
If you don't study hard

609
00:38:39,000 --> 00:38:41,830
you know what happens, right?

610
00:38:49,790 --> 00:38:50,830
Ma'am! Ma'am!

611
00:38:53,000 --> 00:38:56,660
Ma'am, if we stay for the special class...

612
00:38:56,790 --> 00:38:58,660
we'll miss the Polluru bus.

613
00:38:59,120 --> 00:39:00,160
Don't you want to study?

614
00:39:00,790 --> 00:39:01,950
It's not like that, ma'am.

615
00:39:02,080 --> 00:39:03,660
- Babu...
- Yes madam!

616
00:39:05,500 --> 00:39:08,000
Drop her home after special class.

617
00:39:08,790 --> 00:39:09,660
Okay madam.

618
00:39:13,910 --> 00:39:16,700
Don't worry. I'll drop you home.

619
00:39:20,660 --> 00:39:24,910
<i>I can't lie to the mirror
Staring back at me</i>

620
00:39:25,160 --> 00:39:28,410
- Sister, please sing.
- Manikanta, don't pull me.

621
00:39:29,200 --> 00:39:30,080
Why?

622
00:39:30,410 --> 00:39:32,080
- Periods.
- What is that?

623
00:39:32,580 --> 00:39:34,910
You'll understand when you hit puberty.

624
00:39:35,370 --> 00:39:37,540
Puberty? What does it mean?

625
00:39:38,330 --> 00:39:40,950
Want me to explain it, baby girl?

626
00:39:43,700 --> 00:39:44,830
Hey, wait!

627
00:39:46,870 --> 00:39:49,370
Look at this flower...

628
00:39:49,450 --> 00:39:51,080
- The same way, you too...
- Hey!

629
00:39:51,620 --> 00:39:54,000
- I'll tell everyone!
- Hey, who will you tell?

630
00:39:54,620 --> 00:39:56,000
Your friend died, right?

631
00:39:56,750 --> 00:39:58,080
She was a looker!

632
00:39:58,370 --> 00:39:59,910
Poor thing died
before experiencing anything.

633
00:40:00,830 --> 00:40:02,750
You don't end up like her, okay?

634
00:40:03,870 --> 00:40:05,950
He's my younger brother.

635
00:40:07,080 --> 00:40:08,540
He likes you a lot.

636
00:40:10,410 --> 00:40:11,330
Give it to her.

637
00:40:12,500 --> 00:40:13,830
- Take it!
- Take it!

638
00:40:16,120 --> 00:40:18,500
- Take it, sister.
- Huh?

639
00:40:19,120 --> 00:40:20,450
Sister, just take it!

640
00:40:24,950 --> 00:40:26,870
Say "yes" to him tomorrow. Okay?

641
00:40:27,950 --> 00:40:28,870
Let's go.

642
00:40:36,750 --> 00:40:37,750
Sister?

643
00:40:38,700 --> 00:40:40,080
Don't cry, sister.

644
00:40:41,790 --> 00:40:42,660
Dad!

645
00:40:43,410 --> 00:40:44,370
Dad!

646
00:40:46,580 --> 00:40:49,950
These idiots are everywhere, Dad!

647
00:40:51,450 --> 00:40:52,370
What happened, dear?

648
00:40:52,830 --> 00:40:55,250
They were at the bus stop
the other day, and on the bus today.

649
00:40:55,580 --> 00:40:57,040
They said such awful things, Dad.

650
00:40:57,790 --> 00:40:59,500
Swear words I can't even repeat.

651
00:41:00,290 --> 00:41:01,660
Don't spare them, Dad.

652
00:41:01,830 --> 00:41:03,910
Let's go file
a police complaint against them.

653
00:41:04,660 --> 00:41:05,830
Police station?!

654
00:41:09,080 --> 00:41:12,660
A complaint will turn this matter
into village gossip, dear!

655
00:41:14,790 --> 00:41:17,700
Once you grow up, the safety
of home won't exist outside, dear.

656
00:41:18,250 --> 00:41:20,750
Instead of speaking up
and making things worse,

657
00:41:21,750 --> 00:41:25,580
if you stay quiet for a while,
it'll blow over soon.

658
00:41:26,580 --> 00:41:29,250
Should we keep quiet out of fear, Dad?

659
00:41:31,410 --> 00:41:32,410
Try to understand, dear.

660
00:41:33,160 --> 00:41:36,580
For a girl's future,
fear is her greatest protection.

661
00:41:38,040 --> 00:41:39,620
- Manamma!
- Yes?

662
00:41:40,120 --> 00:41:41,750
From the time you got on the school bus

663
00:41:42,200 --> 00:41:45,370
until you got back home,
tell dad everything that's happened.

664
00:41:46,330 --> 00:41:48,160
Manamma! Go to sleep.

665
00:41:48,790 --> 00:41:51,620
- The new school is very nice.
- Good!

666
00:41:52,250 --> 00:41:55,540
- I've made friends with everyone.
- That's good.

667
00:41:56,120 --> 00:41:58,660
But on the bus ride back...

668
00:42:08,870 --> 00:42:10,040
What happened, dear?

669
00:42:17,200 --> 00:42:20,410
Very sad. Gayatri sister cried a lot.

670
00:42:20,830 --> 00:42:21,830
What do they look like?

671
00:42:23,500 --> 00:42:28,500
One has cat-like eyes,
another has a cut on his nose,

672
00:42:28,870 --> 00:42:32,830
one has buck teeth,
and another one looks strange, Dad.

673
00:42:33,330 --> 00:42:35,870
Kaveri, sleep with our little girl
until I come back.

674
00:42:36,370 --> 00:42:39,540
No, Trinadh. We don't know
who they are. Listen to me! Trinadh!

675
00:42:42,330 --> 00:42:43,500
<i>Swamy Sharanam.</i>

676
00:42:44,790 --> 00:42:47,540
- Hey Suri! Who are these guys?
- They're not locals, brother.

677
00:42:48,040 --> 00:42:52,200
They've been around these forests lately.
They're high on weed all day.

678
00:42:52,500 --> 00:42:54,830
People are afraid to use
this road because of them.

679
00:42:56,580 --> 00:42:57,580
Brother, here.

680
00:43:05,910 --> 00:43:06,910
Right there, brother.

681
00:43:42,870 --> 00:43:45,500
Hey Suri. What happened?

682
00:43:46,160 --> 00:43:49,410
Get up! Come on, get up!
Tell me what happened!

683
00:43:55,160 --> 00:43:56,040
Hey!

684
00:44:07,910 --> 00:44:09,200
- Grab him!
- Hey!

685
00:44:19,370 --> 00:44:24,000
One has cat-like eyes,
another has a cut on his nose,

686
00:44:26,080 --> 00:44:30,790
one has buck teeth,
and another one looks strange, Dad.

687
00:44:31,410 --> 00:44:32,330
Hey!

688
00:45:14,700 --> 00:45:15,580
Hey!

689
00:45:16,830 --> 00:45:17,830
Oh God!

690
00:45:43,700 --> 00:45:46,370
Who the hell are you?
Where are you from?

691
00:45:46,910 --> 00:45:48,580
You idiots, where did you come from?

692
00:45:48,870 --> 00:45:52,080
What the heck
are you doing here, you idiots?

693
00:45:54,040 --> 00:45:56,120
Do you know
who you harassed on the bus?

694
00:45:56,870 --> 00:45:59,200
They are my daughters, you morons!

695
00:46:00,620 --> 00:46:01,660
Hey!

696
00:46:02,700 --> 00:46:04,500
I have a weakness.

697
00:46:09,370 --> 00:46:11,120
<i>Swamy Sharanam.</i>

698
00:46:13,330 --> 00:46:14,250
Let's go.

699
00:46:16,950 --> 00:46:20,160
I sent the entire load yesterday,
Mr. Satyanarayana. Don't worry.

700
00:46:20,950 --> 00:46:24,080
Okay! Okay! For sure. Bye.

701
00:46:25,120 --> 00:46:26,500
- Hey, Trinadh!
- Come in, Guru Swamy.

702
00:46:26,580 --> 00:46:28,040
- Gayatri, sit down.
- Come in, Guru Swamy.

703
00:46:28,160 --> 00:46:29,910
Did you thrash those boys
in Donkarayi forest?

704
00:46:31,160 --> 00:46:33,910
Do you even know
how dangerous they are?

705
00:46:36,790 --> 00:46:40,450
I'm already terrified that Gayatri
came to their attention on the bus.

706
00:46:40,950 --> 00:46:42,250
Now you've thrashed them.

707
00:46:42,870 --> 00:46:44,120
What if something happens?

708
00:46:44,500 --> 00:46:45,700
I did it so nothing happens, Swamy.

709
00:46:46,370 --> 00:46:49,160
How could we stay quiet after they
laid a hand on them, Guru Swamy?

710
00:46:49,410 --> 00:46:52,370
Please! you forgive him
the moment he says "Swamy Sharanam!"

711
00:46:53,200 --> 00:46:55,330
How did you even find out about this?

712
00:47:03,370 --> 00:47:06,370
Are you the guardian
of every girl in this village?

713
00:47:07,290 --> 00:47:09,160
If Gayatri is harmed tomorrow,
will you answer for it?

714
00:47:09,250 --> 00:47:10,870
How can you say that, Guru Swamy?

715
00:47:11,540 --> 00:47:15,500
Besides, they harassed Gayatri.
My daughter was the one who suffered.

716
00:47:16,040 --> 00:47:17,870
Who are you to pick fights?

717
00:47:19,830 --> 00:47:21,410
How can you treat me like an outsider?

718
00:47:21,870 --> 00:47:24,330
Manikanta's my younger daughter
and Gayatri's my elder one.

719
00:47:24,790 --> 00:47:27,160
If anyone messes with my daughters,
I'll kill them.

720
00:47:27,580 --> 00:47:30,080
When you have daughters,
you need patience and restraint.

721
00:47:30,330 --> 00:47:31,700
Patience and restraint?

722
00:47:32,160 --> 00:47:35,620
From the moment a girl
leaves her house until she returns,

723
00:47:35,750 --> 00:47:39,870
can we be sure she'll come back safe
without verbal or physical harassment?

724
00:47:41,540 --> 00:47:43,290
The other day, it was Nagulu
at the kabaddi match

725
00:47:43,620 --> 00:47:44,750
and yesterday, it was these scumbags.

726
00:47:45,250 --> 00:47:49,330
Unless they fear that someone will
tear them apart if they touch our girls

727
00:47:49,450 --> 00:47:51,410
we can't protect
our daughters, Guru Swamy.

728
00:47:52,540 --> 00:47:55,500
Besides, why differentiate between
our daughters, Guru Swamy?

729
00:47:56,200 --> 00:47:58,370
Have I ever treated you
any differently, Gayatri?

730
00:48:10,290 --> 00:48:11,200
Hey.

731
00:48:11,870 --> 00:48:16,250
You're our courage.
We feel helpless without you.

732
00:48:17,700 --> 00:48:21,540
Alright, Lord Ayyappa
will take care of everything.

733
00:48:23,160 --> 00:48:24,790
I won't differentiate again.

734
00:48:26,870 --> 00:48:28,410
I won't, man.

735
00:48:30,700 --> 00:48:34,620
Gayatri, if anyone messes
with you again, crush them. Okay?

736
00:48:35,540 --> 00:48:37,120
I'll handle them, Dad!

737
00:48:37,540 --> 00:48:39,830
Like father, like daughter!

738
00:48:40,910 --> 00:48:41,910
Ah, Trinadh.

739
00:48:42,200 --> 00:48:44,830
Gayatri's name is
on the grade 10 toppers list.

740
00:48:45,370 --> 00:48:47,290
Her teacher selected her
for special classes.

741
00:48:47,450 --> 00:48:52,040
Gayatri is a dedicated student,
Guru Swamy. She'll reach great heights.

742
00:48:58,000 --> 00:49:00,290
- My precious!
- Dad!

743
00:49:02,160 --> 00:49:03,500
- Shall we go?
- Dad!

744
00:49:03,870 --> 00:49:06,410
- Can we say bye to Gayatri sister?
- Is that so?

745
00:49:07,330 --> 00:49:10,620
Sir, Can you please call
Gayatri from class 10?

746
00:49:10,750 --> 00:49:12,500
- She's gone to special class.
- Oh, right!

747
00:49:12,790 --> 00:49:14,450
She's in special class. Shall we leave?

748
00:49:14,750 --> 00:49:15,660
- Come!
- Dad!

749
00:49:15,750 --> 00:49:17,120
- Tell me, dear.
- Rose milk?

750
00:49:17,250 --> 00:49:18,410
Okay, let's go.

751
00:49:20,080 --> 00:49:21,750
Business isn't going well, Trinadh.

752
00:49:21,830 --> 00:49:24,540
Run the business right, and everything
will be fine, Mr. Satyanarayana.

753
00:49:24,620 --> 00:49:26,700
We must work hard.
Nothing comes without effort.

754
00:49:28,120 --> 00:49:30,200
Kaveri is very particular
about this, you know?

755
00:49:30,290 --> 00:49:31,200
You're very lucky.

756
00:49:31,620 --> 00:49:34,580
- Sowji sister, hi!
- Manikanta?

757
00:49:36,080 --> 00:49:38,790
Aren't you attending special class
with Gayatri sister?

758
00:49:42,410 --> 00:49:43,700
I dropped out of school.

759
00:49:44,580 --> 00:49:47,700
Are you scared of those idiots
who harassed you on the bus?

760
00:49:48,450 --> 00:49:50,330
My dad beat them up badly.

761
00:49:51,660 --> 00:49:53,000
Don't be scared, sister.

762
00:49:55,410 --> 00:49:56,700
Would you like some rose milk?

763
00:50:03,330 --> 00:50:04,200
Here!

764
00:50:04,750 --> 00:50:06,040
- The market rate--
- Dad!

765
00:50:06,290 --> 00:50:08,450
- What's up?
- One rose milk for Sowji sister too.

766
00:50:08,580 --> 00:50:09,620
- Sowji sister?!
- Yes!

767
00:50:11,540 --> 00:50:12,540
There she is!

768
00:50:19,830 --> 00:50:23,950
- Dad, shall we meet Gayatri sister?
- We'll be late, dear.

769
00:50:26,120 --> 00:50:29,620
- Shall we go to a movie?
- Movie? Okay, let's go.

770
00:50:36,660 --> 00:50:37,580
Ma'am?

771
00:50:39,410 --> 00:50:40,950
Where's Sowjanya and the rest?

772
00:50:42,040 --> 00:50:44,370
Why, won't you come if she's not here?

773
00:50:46,160 --> 00:50:49,580
Anyway, my focus
is completely on you, Gayatri.

774
00:50:50,450 --> 00:50:52,910
You're very weak in English.

775
00:50:53,620 --> 00:50:56,120
Go take a shower.
We'll start the class after that.

776
00:50:57,120 --> 00:51:01,040
- It's okay, ma'am.
- You should wash up before you study.

777
00:51:18,660 --> 00:51:19,540
Sit down.

778
00:51:20,580 --> 00:51:21,500
Not there.

779
00:51:28,910 --> 00:51:31,540
You have a beautiful skin tone, Gayatri.

780
00:51:34,910 --> 00:51:37,120
You really love studying, don't you?

781
00:51:40,000 --> 00:51:42,410
If you want to become
the topper I want you to be,

782
00:51:43,950 --> 00:51:45,830
you'll have to focus much more.

783
00:51:47,370 --> 00:51:48,620
You shouldn't get distracted.

784
00:51:52,830 --> 00:51:53,700
For that...

785
00:51:56,080 --> 00:51:57,370
you must meditate.

786
00:52:01,910 --> 00:52:02,870
Meditation.

787
00:52:04,410 --> 00:52:06,450
- Don't you know it?
- No...

788
00:52:08,580 --> 00:52:09,950
Close your eyes.

789
00:52:12,620 --> 00:52:13,500
Ma'am!

790
00:52:16,660 --> 00:52:18,080
- Babu...
- Yes, Madam!

791
00:52:18,500 --> 00:52:20,370
Ma'am, let me go! No, ma'am!

792
00:52:20,450 --> 00:52:21,830
- Gayatri! Listen!
- I'll tell my parents!

793
00:52:21,910 --> 00:52:23,200
- Why are you shouting?
- Hold her hands.

794
00:52:23,290 --> 00:52:24,200
- Listen to her!
- NO!

795
00:52:24,330 --> 00:52:25,950
Won't you listen when I say it nicely?

796
00:52:26,120 --> 00:52:28,120
Let me go, ma'am! I'll tell my parents!

797
00:52:28,250 --> 00:52:31,120
- Let me go! NO!
- Hey! Hey! Listen to me!

798
00:52:33,040 --> 00:52:34,790
If you don't do as I say,

799
00:52:35,500 --> 00:52:37,370
I'll ensure you don't get
your hall ticket.

800
00:52:38,000 --> 00:52:40,330
Do you understand? Do you?

801
00:52:42,290 --> 00:52:44,580
No ma'am. Please, ma'am.

802
00:52:52,870 --> 00:52:53,750
Who is that?

803
00:52:54,580 --> 00:52:55,540
Not sure, madam.

804
00:52:59,370 --> 00:53:02,620
Someone's here.
If you make a sound, I'll kill you.

805
00:53:13,620 --> 00:53:16,500
- Does my breath smell? Okay. Come.
- No, Dad.

806
00:53:18,620 --> 00:53:19,660
Hello, madam.

807
00:53:20,120 --> 00:53:22,540
My name is Trinadh. I'm Gayatri's uncle.

808
00:53:24,620 --> 00:53:26,540
I heard you selected
Gayatri for special classes.

809
00:53:27,370 --> 00:53:30,250
Teachers like you are the reason
poor students can study.

810
00:53:31,450 --> 00:53:33,790
If the class is over,
I'll take Gayatri home.

811
00:53:34,330 --> 00:53:35,540
Yeah, it's over.

812
00:53:36,580 --> 00:53:37,540
Gayatri!

813
00:53:46,660 --> 00:53:48,450
Gayatri should be the district topper.

814
00:53:50,330 --> 00:53:52,540
Come on, Gayatri. Let's go.

815
00:53:54,000 --> 00:53:55,000
Gayatri...

816
00:53:57,040 --> 00:53:58,040
Take care.

817
00:54:08,790 --> 00:54:11,000
Who was he?
He came straight to the house.

818
00:54:11,200 --> 00:54:12,620
You think Gayatri will tell him?

819
00:54:12,750 --> 00:54:14,620
No madam.
She's crazy about her studies.

820
00:54:15,040 --> 00:54:17,370
You threatened to withhold
her hall ticket. She won't tell him.

821
00:54:18,160 --> 00:54:21,000
If anyone finds out
what goes on here, we're done for.

822
00:54:51,660 --> 00:54:53,040
Why are you sweating, madam?

823
00:54:55,750 --> 00:54:57,540
You're working too hard for these kids.

824
00:54:58,200 --> 00:55:01,620
It just remembered. I forgot to give you
a banana bunch. Just a moment.

825
00:55:07,160 --> 00:55:08,660
Keep it inside. I'll see you.

826
00:55:16,790 --> 00:55:17,700
Gayatri!

827
00:55:19,500 --> 00:55:20,910
Close your eyes.

828
00:55:23,450 --> 00:55:24,450
Ma'am!

829
00:55:28,290 --> 00:55:31,000
For a girl's future,
fear is her greatest protection.

830
00:55:34,080 --> 00:55:37,500
Gayatri, if anyone messes
with you again, crush them. Okay?

831
00:55:48,200 --> 00:55:50,540
Where are you going
at this hour, Gayatri?

832
00:55:50,620 --> 00:55:53,080
- To Trinadh uncle's house.
- He's in the auto near the liquor shop.

833
00:55:57,580 --> 00:55:58,450
Uncle.

834
00:55:58,540 --> 00:56:00,250
The teacher isn't who we thought she was.

835
00:56:00,330 --> 00:56:02,870
- Actually, in that house--
- My dear Gayatri...

836
00:56:03,450 --> 00:56:05,370
You should rank first
in the entire district.

837
00:56:05,450 --> 00:56:07,950
You're the goddess of knowledge, my dear.

838
00:56:08,120 --> 00:56:10,370
- Study hard...
- Oh no! Uncle!

839
00:56:10,450 --> 00:56:13,410
You must teach Manamma everything.

840
00:56:13,540 --> 00:56:16,870
Study hard and reach great heights, dear.

841
00:56:17,160 --> 00:56:20,750
Make us all... proud.

842
00:56:33,750 --> 00:56:37,540
- Hey, stop. Where are you off to?
- We're all going to Donkarayi fair.

843
00:56:37,790 --> 00:56:39,410
Why? Isn't drinking
in Polluru enough for you?

844
00:56:39,620 --> 00:56:41,870
- I'm not giving you any.
- I'll quit it anyway once I take the vow.

845
00:56:42,000 --> 00:56:42,870
Please, give me some.

846
00:56:43,000 --> 00:56:45,000
You're always drinking
and starting pointless fights.

847
00:56:45,500 --> 00:56:47,500
I won't have a moment's peace
until you get back.

848
00:56:47,620 --> 00:56:51,080
- Exactly! I'll only have two pegs!
- No! I won't give! Let it go!

849
00:56:51,160 --> 00:56:52,910
- Give me!
- Trinadh!

850
00:56:58,160 --> 00:57:02,580
The thought of staying sober for 41 days
after taking the vow makes my heart sink.

851
00:57:02,660 --> 00:57:05,620
- So you'll drink all 41 days' worth today?
- Pretty much.

852
00:57:20,660 --> 00:57:23,790
Your songs should resonate through
all of Polluru this <i>Karthika</i> month.

853
00:57:23,870 --> 00:57:24,830
- Exactly.
- Yes.

854
00:57:26,120 --> 00:57:28,290
- Trinadh! Trinadh!
- You should sing too, Suri.

855
00:57:28,830 --> 00:57:32,040
- Come, Swamy. Have a drink.
- Hey! I just saw Nagulu.

856
00:57:33,870 --> 00:57:35,450
Looks like he's just arrived.

857
00:57:36,750 --> 00:57:39,750
What can he do, Swamy?
Don't worry. Come on, have it.

858
00:57:40,160 --> 00:57:42,500
He knows he can't lay a finger
on you any other day.

859
00:57:43,000 --> 00:57:45,700
That's why he's come right
when you're about to take the vow.

860
00:57:47,540 --> 00:57:49,000
And it's not just him...

861
00:57:49,950 --> 00:57:53,410
even those boys you thrashed
at Donkarayi forest are here.

862
00:57:58,450 --> 00:58:01,540
So are the men you beat up
at the Chintoor market last year.

863
00:58:02,950 --> 00:58:03,870
Leave me!

864
00:58:12,450 --> 00:58:14,620
Every man you hurt...

865
00:58:15,000 --> 00:58:17,500
The moment you put on
those black robes tomorrow,

866
00:58:18,370 --> 00:58:20,950
they'll crawl back
like venomous snakes seeking revenge.

867
00:58:25,410 --> 00:58:27,290
Once you take the vow,

868
00:58:27,750 --> 00:58:29,790
you'll be lost in devotion
and won't fight back.

869
00:58:31,830 --> 00:58:33,370
I'm really scared.

870
00:58:39,750 --> 00:58:41,620
I'll send them a message of mercy.

871
00:58:56,160 --> 00:59:00,660
Hear ye! Here is the message of mercy
from Polluru's resident, Trinadh Ram Kasu.

872
00:59:00,830 --> 00:59:05,750
He'll be waiting alone beneath
Polluru's banyan tree tonight!

873
00:59:06,540 --> 00:59:10,080
Let his foes, rivals,
and troublemakers step forward

874
00:59:10,250 --> 00:59:13,540
and swear they won't enter
this village or harm his people

875
00:59:13,620 --> 00:59:16,620
during his 41-day vow. Beg him for mercy!

876
00:59:16,870 --> 00:59:19,080
If anyone stirs up trouble
while he's under vow,

877
00:59:19,160 --> 00:59:21,620
he'll cut off their heads
and hang them from the palm trees!

878
00:59:21,700 --> 00:59:23,540
That's his message of mercy!

879
00:59:35,580 --> 00:59:36,580
Who are you?

880
00:59:36,910 --> 00:59:40,120
You beat us up for teasing a girl
at the Chintoor fair, sir.

881
00:59:42,500 --> 00:59:43,830
We've come to beg for mercy.

882
00:59:44,500 --> 00:59:46,410
You won't step foot in Polluru
during my vow, will you?

883
00:59:48,620 --> 00:59:49,500
Go.

884
00:59:55,410 --> 00:59:57,660
- What about you?
- You hit us near the temple.

885
00:59:58,410 --> 01:00:00,910
- Watch yourselves. Move along.
- Okay, brother!

886
01:00:13,330 --> 01:00:16,700
- We've come to beg for mercy.
- Tell him, not me.

887
01:00:19,790 --> 01:00:22,040
We'll stay clear
of your village and your women.

888
01:00:24,620 --> 01:00:27,450
Next time, I won't just
beat you. I'll kill you.

889
01:00:55,910 --> 01:00:58,580
- Erraji's here.
- That moron's finally here.

890
01:00:59,000 --> 01:00:59,870
Trinadh...

891
01:01:00,500 --> 01:01:02,290
I heartily beg for mercy.

892
01:01:02,910 --> 01:01:05,700
During your vow and after,
we'll stay out of your way.

893
01:01:06,290 --> 01:01:08,660
- Where is Nagulu?
- He's a dimwit.

894
01:01:08,870 --> 01:01:10,120
You did what was best for him.

895
01:01:10,200 --> 01:01:12,910
He was so ashamed, he just left
without a word to his own father.

896
01:01:14,950 --> 01:01:17,250
- He must beg for himself.
- If you want,

897
01:01:17,330 --> 01:01:19,160
- I'll swear on your daught--
- Hey, step back!

898
01:01:23,410 --> 01:01:26,370
Before I take the vow
the day after tomorrow morning,

899
01:01:26,540 --> 01:01:28,620
your son better come and beg for mercy.

900
01:01:28,950 --> 01:01:29,830
Or else...

901
01:01:30,040 --> 01:01:31,250
<i>Swamy Sharanam!</i>

902
01:01:32,000 --> 01:01:34,950
Don't say that. I really don't know
where he is, Trinadh.

903
01:01:35,080 --> 01:01:37,290
I begged you for mercy. I did.

904
01:01:37,700 --> 01:01:39,410
Spare him, okay?

905
01:01:39,620 --> 01:01:41,330
There, Guru Swamy. I did my part.

906
01:01:41,500 --> 01:01:42,950
- Okay.
- Start the car.

907
01:01:44,410 --> 01:01:47,540
He pleaded. I don't think
he knows that his son is in town.

908
01:01:47,790 --> 01:01:50,750
Hey, let's stop it here.
Let's not pick a fight.

909
01:01:51,080 --> 01:01:53,040
Listen to me. Hey!

910
01:01:54,450 --> 01:01:57,620
- Trinadh, he pleaded, didn't he?
- Erraji is putting on an act

911
01:01:57,700 --> 01:01:59,950
- while hiding his son, Guru Swamy.
- Don't do this.

912
01:02:00,040 --> 01:02:02,330
You're already drunk. Listen to me!

913
01:02:02,540 --> 01:02:04,040
You're taking the sacred vow in two days.

914
01:02:04,120 --> 01:02:06,330
This isn't right. Leave him alone.

915
01:02:06,790 --> 01:02:09,200
Hey, Trinadh! Listen to me. Don't do this.

916
01:02:09,910 --> 01:02:13,040
I can't observe my vow in peace
while he is still breathing.

917
01:02:13,540 --> 01:02:14,830
Take Manamma home.

918
01:02:16,200 --> 01:02:17,080
Trinadh!

919
01:02:37,450 --> 01:02:38,500
Hold on. Stop.

920
01:02:40,540 --> 01:02:41,660
What happened now?

921
01:02:42,160 --> 01:02:44,500
Someone dumped
a bound corpse in the ditch.

922
01:02:45,410 --> 01:02:46,790
Which poor girl is it this time?

923
01:02:53,330 --> 01:02:54,660
Reeks like a dead dog.

924
01:02:55,370 --> 01:02:56,410
Someone open it!

925
01:03:05,540 --> 01:03:06,410
Open it.

926
01:03:16,910 --> 01:03:17,790
Is it a girl?

927
01:03:19,500 --> 01:03:22,000
- Who is it?
- It's Nagulu, sir.

928
01:03:33,040 --> 01:03:34,000
Hey!

929
01:03:35,290 --> 01:03:37,000
Hey, Nagulu!

930
01:03:37,660 --> 01:03:39,410
Hey, Nagulu!

931
01:03:43,080 --> 01:03:45,700
I warned you not to wander around.

932
01:03:46,500 --> 01:03:48,910
Why didn't you listen to me, Nagulu?

933
01:03:50,370 --> 01:03:53,830
Trinadh wasn't making
empty threats. He killed him!

934
01:03:57,620 --> 01:04:01,000
He was dead drunk swinging a machete.
Why didn't you stop him, Guru Swamy?

935
01:04:01,790 --> 01:04:03,870
I tried, dear. But he wouldn't listen.

936
01:04:05,450 --> 01:04:07,040
I don't know if he's alive or dead.

937
01:04:07,580 --> 01:04:10,040
- Now--
- Trinadh! Come out!

938
01:04:10,120 --> 01:04:13,250
- Trinadh! Come out!
- Trinadh! Come out!

939
01:04:14,080 --> 01:04:14,950
Stay here.

940
01:04:15,200 --> 01:04:16,250
Come out!

941
01:04:16,660 --> 01:04:19,500
Guru Swamy, bring Trinadh outside.

942
01:04:20,000 --> 01:04:21,950
He murdered my son...

943
01:04:22,790 --> 01:04:24,410
Where is he roaming now?

944
01:04:25,040 --> 01:04:26,290
Where is Trinadh?

945
01:04:27,200 --> 01:04:28,120
Erraji.

946
01:04:28,910 --> 01:04:31,450
Trinadh might get into fights
when he loses his temper,

947
01:04:31,750 --> 01:04:33,500
but he's not foolish enough
to commit murder.

948
01:04:33,790 --> 01:04:36,370
You all know what he's like
the day before his vow.

949
01:04:36,750 --> 01:04:41,370
I begged him with folded hands
to spare my son!

950
01:04:41,870 --> 01:04:44,870
- Where the hell is he? Where?
- I mean--

951
01:04:45,540 --> 01:04:47,000
- Where the heck is he?
- Mom!

952
01:04:47,080 --> 01:04:48,450
- He hasn't returned since last night!
- Tell me!

953
01:04:48,580 --> 01:04:49,910
- Listen to me!
- Just tell me!

954
01:04:50,040 --> 01:04:52,450
- We don't even know where he went.
- Where is he?

955
01:04:59,790 --> 01:05:01,120
Hey!

956
01:05:06,580 --> 01:05:07,830
Hey!

957
01:05:08,500 --> 01:05:09,950
Hey, Trinadh...

958
01:05:10,200 --> 01:05:12,660
You murdered my son!

959
01:05:14,750 --> 01:05:15,870
Hey, Erraji.

960
01:05:16,410 --> 01:05:20,410
If I had killed your son,
I'd have been the first to tell you.

961
01:05:20,620 --> 01:05:22,620
I was planning to kill him.

962
01:05:23,950 --> 01:05:25,410
Someone got to him first!

963
01:05:28,250 --> 01:05:30,160
I do regret...

964
01:05:30,870 --> 01:05:33,330
that I didn't end his life
with my own hands.

965
01:05:33,410 --> 01:05:35,290
- Hey!
- Hey!

966
01:05:35,620 --> 01:05:36,830
Why are you raising your voice?

967
01:05:36,910 --> 01:05:38,660
- Hey! Trinadh, stop!
- Stop it.

968
01:05:38,750 --> 01:05:40,410
- I'll slaughter you all!
- Trinadh!

969
01:05:40,500 --> 01:05:41,620
- Stop--
- Stop!

970
01:05:41,700 --> 01:05:44,700
- I'll kill you first, damn it!
- Hey, hey. Stop it!

971
01:05:47,500 --> 01:05:49,040
I lost my son!

972
01:05:50,500 --> 01:05:52,870
Only a father
who's been through it knows that agony.

973
01:05:53,410 --> 01:05:55,620
We'll settle this after your vow is done.

974
01:05:58,080 --> 01:05:59,790
We'll talk it out.

975
01:06:01,620 --> 01:06:02,540
Let's go!

976
01:06:03,790 --> 01:06:05,000
- Let's go.
- Don't fight!

977
01:06:05,080 --> 01:06:06,620
- I beg you, please leave.
- If you come here again

978
01:06:06,700 --> 01:06:09,160
- or near Trinadh's house, you're dead men!
- Hey, Bhargava!

979
01:06:09,250 --> 01:06:10,950
- Hey!
- Erraji!

980
01:06:11,040 --> 01:06:12,660
- Please, just leave!
- Stop!

981
01:06:12,750 --> 01:06:14,870
- We'll handle them later.
- Hey, get lost, you idiots!

982
01:06:14,950 --> 01:06:17,080
- Leave now. Go!
- Get lost!

983
01:06:24,200 --> 01:06:26,120
Why are you staring at me, Guru Swamy?

984
01:06:26,620 --> 01:06:29,870
Don't tell me
you actually think I killed Nagulu.

985
01:06:30,870 --> 01:06:31,750
Huh?

986
01:06:33,830 --> 01:06:36,700
I did go into the woods
with a machete last night.

987
01:06:37,040 --> 01:06:39,870
I heard Nagulu was hiding
in the Donkarayi forest.

988
01:06:42,950 --> 01:06:44,040
Hey, Nagulu!

989
01:06:45,450 --> 01:06:48,450
Nagulu! I know you're here. Step out!

990
01:07:03,790 --> 01:07:05,450
Why are you back? Tell me.

991
01:07:05,580 --> 01:07:07,620
What are you and your father plotting?

992
01:07:07,750 --> 01:07:09,950
Tell me, you coward.
I'll kill you! Tell me.

993
01:07:10,080 --> 01:07:11,660
Tell me. Tell me!

994
01:07:15,250 --> 01:07:16,410
Come, come, come!

995
01:07:16,620 --> 01:07:18,120
You're finished today.

996
01:07:18,200 --> 01:07:20,040
Come. Bring it on!

997
01:07:21,660 --> 01:07:23,410
- Come on, fight!
- Hey!

998
01:07:25,040 --> 01:07:26,830
Come on, fight!

999
01:07:31,120 --> 01:07:32,120
You...

1000
01:07:34,450 --> 01:07:37,000
Hey! Who do you think I am? It's Nagulu!

1001
01:07:37,580 --> 01:07:38,580
Look at me.

1002
01:07:40,080 --> 01:07:41,370
I came here to kill you.

1003
01:07:41,540 --> 01:07:45,750
I wanted to kill you after your vow!
But the villagers would call me a coward.

1004
01:07:45,910 --> 01:07:48,250
So I'll kill you right now!

1005
01:07:52,910 --> 01:07:54,870
Hey! Who are you? Let go of the dagger!

1006
01:07:55,000 --> 01:07:56,830
- Leave it. Now.
- Hey!

1007
01:07:57,330 --> 01:07:59,290
- Hey! Who are you?
- Hey!

1008
01:08:00,830 --> 01:08:02,160
Hey, let me go.

1009
01:08:02,500 --> 01:08:05,000
Hey, Get your hands off it. I'll kill him.

1010
01:08:06,040 --> 01:08:07,370
Hey!

1011
01:08:10,830 --> 01:08:13,160
Who are you, man? Leave me.

1012
01:08:13,330 --> 01:08:15,910
Don't kill me! No, please. No.

1013
01:08:18,790 --> 01:08:19,700
Hey!

1014
01:08:22,040 --> 01:08:24,450
I couldn't see him clearly.

1015
01:08:28,700 --> 01:08:29,620
Guru Swamy...

1016
01:08:30,330 --> 01:08:33,160
Something sinister
is happening in our village.

1017
01:08:33,450 --> 01:08:34,450
Something's wrong.

1018
01:08:35,250 --> 01:08:36,410
I went into the forest.

1019
01:08:37,040 --> 01:08:40,500
- After I found Nagulu...
- What's this, Guru Swamy?

1020
01:08:42,000 --> 01:08:44,580
Why do I have to suffer
before his vow every year?

1021
01:08:47,540 --> 01:08:51,000
Look at your daughter.
Look how terrified she is!

1022
01:08:57,040 --> 01:09:00,040
What will we do
if he gets hurt, Guru Swamy?

1023
01:09:03,080 --> 01:09:06,040
Drink yourself to death then!
Hey, come inside!

1024
01:09:12,250 --> 01:09:13,250
Manamma...

1025
01:09:44,950 --> 01:09:45,830
Manamma...

1026
01:09:46,870 --> 01:09:49,950
I went into the forest
last night with a machete.

1027
01:09:50,330 --> 01:09:52,250
I intended to kill him.

1028
01:09:52,370 --> 01:09:55,540
Then someone showed up
wearing a mask.

1029
01:09:55,620 --> 01:09:58,700
- And after that--
- Stop drinking, Dad.

1030
01:10:02,330 --> 01:10:05,370
I'm taking the vow tomorrow.
I won't be drinking anyway.

1031
01:10:05,910 --> 01:10:07,910
Don't ever drink again, Dad.

1032
01:10:10,660 --> 01:10:13,750
If I don't drink,
my hands start shaking, Manamma.

1033
01:10:14,290 --> 01:10:15,700
I'll hold your hands.

1034
01:10:16,580 --> 01:10:18,000
My mind won't stop racing.

1035
01:10:18,250 --> 01:10:20,580
- I can't sleep.
- I'll sing you to sleep, Dad.

1036
01:10:25,910 --> 01:10:29,080
You've never asked me this
before. Why now?

1037
01:10:30,370 --> 01:10:33,540
I used to think drinking made you happy.

1038
01:10:34,200 --> 01:10:36,330
But you aren't happy at all.

1039
01:10:38,660 --> 01:10:41,290
Seeing you like this scares me, Dad.

1040
01:10:50,830 --> 01:10:51,870
Alright, Manamma.

1041
01:10:52,700 --> 01:10:55,700
I'll quit it for you.
I swear, I'll never drink again.

1042
01:11:08,580 --> 01:11:10,540
Your father, Trinadh Rama Kasu...

1043
01:11:10,660 --> 01:11:14,450
His old self is gone.
Things will be different from now on.

1044
01:11:21,910 --> 01:11:23,950
Swamiye Sharanam Ayyappa!

1045
01:11:24,040 --> 01:11:25,910

SWAMIYE SHARANAM AYYAPPA

1051
01:11:55,910 --> 01:11:58,040
<i>Dawn breaks

1052

Sharanam Ayyappa!

1059
01:12:47,660 --> 01:12:49,750
Please let us host you, Swamy.

1060
01:12:49,830 --> 01:12:53,370
<i>You gave me Your sacred name
And made me one with Ayyappa</i>

1061
01:12:53,620 --> 01:12:57,580
<i>"You are Me," you softly whispered

1062
01:12:57,950 --> 01:13:02,080

Is no war against a shadowed foe</i>

1065
01:13:10,910 --> 01:13:14,830

1066

Swamy!

1077
01:14:12,410 --> 01:14:15,500
- Get the stall out of here.
- But you said we could sell.

1078
01:14:15,580 --> 01:14:17,370
That was then.
Now we're in the penance period.

1079
01:14:17,500 --> 01:14:18,410
Close the stall.

1080
01:14:25,290 --> 01:14:29,410
<i>God called to me
And the silence within me answered</i>

1081
01:14:29,620 --> 01:14:33,750
<i>My Swamy's call touched my heart</i>

1082
01:14:33,910 --> 01:14:38,080
<i>Who knows how old this bond is
Or what past-life blessing it holds</i>

1083
01:14:38,330 --> 01:14:42,250
<i>The one I created showed me the light</i>

1084
01:14:42,580 --> 01:14:46,870
<i>As the first rays of dawn
Bring something new</i>

1085
01:14:47,000 --> 01:14:51,040
<i>They soothe my tired, weary heart</i>

1086
01:14:51,290 --> 01:14:55,370
<i>As the first rays of dawn
Bring something new</i>

1087
01:14:55,620 --> 01:14:59,290
<i>They soothe my tired, weary heart</i>

1088
01:14:59,370 --> 01:15:03,660
<i>The moonlight shines and keeps me close</i>

1089
01:15:03,750 --> 01:15:05,910
<i>And when I wrap my heart in a garland</i>

1090
01:15:06,000 --> 01:15:08,410
<i>- I lose myself in a melody of silence</i>
- Swamy, what's wrong?

1091
01:15:16,750 --> 01:15:19,250
<i>Dawn breaks
On Karthika's blessed month, O Lord</i>

1092
01:15:19,370 --> 01:15:21,540
- Manamma, bring the ghee from inside.
- Alright, Mom!

1093
01:15:21,620 --> 01:15:23,660
<i>Though I rest
Upon the cold, bare earth</i>

1094
01:15:23,790 --> 01:15:26,250
That's enough, Swamy.

1095
01:15:26,450 --> 01:15:27,620
- Eat it, Swamy.
- Swamy.

1096
01:15:27,830 --> 01:15:29,950
- Now look at our Swamy.
- Eat it.

1097
01:15:30,540 --> 01:15:34,540
<i>- I journey on, singing the Sharana songs</i>
- Trinadh Swamy...

1098
01:15:43,370 --> 01:15:45,450
<i>Swamy Sharanam
Ayyappa Sharanam</i>

1099
01:15:45,540 --> 01:15:47,700
<i>Swamy Sharanam
Ayyappa Sharanam</i>

1100
01:15:47,790 --> 01:15:49,870
<i>Swamy Sharanam
Ayyappa Sharanam</i>

1101
01:15:49,950 --> 01:15:52,000
<i>Swamy Sharanam
Ayyappa Sharanam...</i>

1102
01:15:52,080 --> 01:15:54,250
<i>Swamy Sharanam
Ayyappa Sharanam...</i>

1103
01:15:54,330 --> 01:15:56,450
<i>Swamy Sharanam
Ayyappa Sharanam...</i>

1104
01:15:56,540 --> 01:15:58,000
- Dear devotees!
- Yes.

1105
01:15:58,200 --> 01:16:02,620
My Dad promised to quit drinking
after completing this vow.

1106
01:16:02,700 --> 01:16:03,790
- Wow!
- Swamy.

1107
01:16:03,950 --> 01:16:06,040
- It'd be nice if you quit drinking too.
- Have it, Swamy.

1108
01:16:06,120 --> 01:16:07,830
We'll see if your father actually does it.

1109
01:16:08,040 --> 01:16:09,500
- Swamy Sharanam!
- Swamy Sharanam!

1110
01:16:10,870 --> 01:16:11,790
Gayatri sister!

1111
01:16:14,040 --> 01:16:15,040
Sister?

1112
01:16:16,410 --> 01:16:19,500
What's wrong? You stopped coming over.

1113
01:16:20,450 --> 01:16:22,660
I'm attending a special class, remember?
I had to stay there.

1114
01:16:23,120 --> 01:16:24,000
Mother!

1115
01:16:25,040 --> 01:16:27,750
How have you been, dear?
And why are your eyes so red?

1116
01:16:28,290 --> 01:16:29,290
It's nothing, Uncle.

1117
01:16:29,830 --> 01:16:32,080
I just said I wanted you
to be the district topper.

1118
01:16:32,330 --> 01:16:33,910
Don't push yourself so hard for it.

1119
01:16:34,040 --> 01:16:36,330
Whether you pass or fail,
you'll always be my number one.

1120
01:16:36,500 --> 01:16:39,080
Swamy! Gayatri isn't having
any trouble there, is she?

1121
01:16:39,330 --> 01:16:41,330
- Not at all.
- Of course not.

1122
01:16:41,500 --> 01:16:43,750
If anything were wrong,
she'd tell me first.

1123
01:16:44,830 --> 01:16:48,250
It's already late. Go on, dear.
They must be waiting for you.

1124
01:16:56,080 --> 01:16:57,750
- Swamy!
- Mother!

1125
01:17:00,540 --> 01:17:05,000
It'd be so nice if you
stayed sober like this all year.

1126
01:17:05,540 --> 01:17:06,500
I will.

1127
01:17:09,540 --> 01:17:12,450
I gave Manamma my word.
I'll keep it, no matter how hard it gets.

1128
01:17:20,120 --> 01:17:22,370
SILERU - POLLURU

1129
01:17:32,580 --> 01:17:33,790
- Sowji sister?
- Huh?

1130
01:17:34,870 --> 01:17:37,290
Why did you leave that day
at the market without a word?

1131
01:17:38,910 --> 01:17:40,000
Tell me, sister.

1132
01:17:40,620 --> 01:17:42,410
Why did you drop out of school?

1133
01:17:43,540 --> 01:17:46,830
Sowji, you wanted
my 10th grade textbooks, right?

1134
01:17:46,910 --> 01:17:47,790
Yes, sister.

1135
01:17:49,200 --> 01:17:50,080
Here.

1136
01:17:51,250 --> 01:17:54,410
I found a note hidden inside the books
Anusha gave me that day.

1137
01:17:56,910 --> 01:17:59,660
When I opened it, it was
a letter Anusha wrote to me.

1138
01:17:59,950 --> 01:18:00,910
Sowjanya!

1139
01:18:01,120 --> 01:18:03,450
Horrible things are happening
at the teacher's house.

1140
01:18:03,790 --> 01:18:06,200
If you get selected for special classes,

1141
01:18:06,410 --> 01:18:07,580
don't go, no matter what!

1142
01:18:07,950 --> 01:18:09,540
I suffered so much there.

1143
01:18:09,950 --> 01:18:12,830
That's why I'm getting married
and leaving this place.

1144
01:18:13,080 --> 01:18:15,250
Just don't tell anyone I told you this.

1145
01:18:15,620 --> 01:18:18,120
Please stay away from that teacher.

1146
01:18:22,080 --> 01:18:23,660
They must have killed Anusha.

1147
01:18:25,040 --> 01:18:26,910
Something's not right
at that house, Manikanta.

1148
01:18:27,620 --> 01:18:29,200
They'll kill Gayatri too!

1149
01:18:30,080 --> 01:18:31,330
Tell her to drop out of school.

1150
01:18:33,450 --> 01:18:36,410
And don't ever tell anyone
that I told you this.

1151
01:18:43,700 --> 01:18:47,040
- Dad! Swamy!
- You're back, Mani?

1152
01:18:47,290 --> 01:18:50,500
He's not here.
Dad went to Donkarayi for <i>padi puja.</i>

1153
01:18:53,120 --> 01:18:54,870
Hey! Why are you calling dad now?

1154
01:18:57,370 --> 01:18:58,580
What new mess is it this time?

1155
01:19:00,450 --> 01:19:02,250
- Give me the phone.
- Mom!

1156
01:19:02,700 --> 01:19:04,250
Tell me. What is it?

1157
01:19:05,540 --> 01:19:06,700
I'll only tell Dad.

1158
01:19:07,500 --> 01:19:08,580
What are you saying, brother?

1159
01:19:08,660 --> 01:19:09,870
You're asking me to kill men in vows.

1160
01:19:10,000 --> 01:19:12,250
If I had known this, I wouldn't have
come all the way from Ongole!

1161
01:19:12,330 --> 01:19:13,200
Hey!

1162
01:19:15,620 --> 01:19:17,040
The pain of losing a son
is gut-wrenching.

1163
01:19:17,700 --> 01:19:19,700
It knows no right or wrong, brother.

1164
01:19:24,250 --> 01:19:25,120
Where are they?

1165
01:19:31,200 --> 01:19:35,040
<i>The archer hero of divine grace

1166

01:23:30,870 --> 01:23:31,790
Trinadh Swamy!

1228
01:23:31,870 --> 01:23:33,580
They're closing in. Move, quick!

1229
01:23:34,870 --> 01:23:39,370
<i>He ascends
The sacred, radiant palanquin</i>

1230
01:23:39,620 --> 01:23:42,620
<i>A palanquin of jasmine and gold</i>

1231
01:23:42,700 --> 01:23:45,250
<i>Lord Manikanta ascends
The sacred palanquin</i>

1232
01:23:45,410 --> 01:23:47,370
<i>A palanquin of jasmine and gold...</i>

1233
01:23:48,500 --> 01:23:51,700
Guru Swamy, don't worry.
Nothing will happen.

1234
01:23:51,790 --> 01:23:55,000
<i>Lord Manikanta ascends
The sacred palanquin</i>

1235
01:23:55,160 --> 01:23:57,040
Ayyappa!

1236
01:23:57,120 --> 01:23:59,950
<i>Lord Manikanta ascends
The sacred palanquin</i>

1237
01:24:00,250 --> 01:24:02,660
<i>- The archer hero of divine grace
- Ascends the sacred palanquin!</i>

1238
01:24:02,750 --> 01:24:05,040
<i>- The mighty Lord Manikanta
- Ascends the sacred palanquin!</i>

1239
01:24:05,120 --> 01:24:07,750
<i>- The archer hero of divine grace
- Ascends the sacred palanquin!</i>

1240
01:24:07,830 --> 01:24:09,950
<i>- The mighty Lord Manikanta
- Ascends the sacred palanquin!</i>

1241
01:24:10,290 --> 01:24:13,000
<i>Swamiye...</i>

1242
01:24:13,080 --> 01:24:16,540
<i>Child of Pandalam
The Guardian of River Pamba</i>

1243
01:24:16,830 --> 01:24:18,830
<i>A palanquin of jasmine and gold</i>

1244
01:24:18,950 --> 01:24:21,330
<i>Lord Manikanta ascends
The sacred palanquin</i>

1245
01:24:21,540 --> 01:24:24,080
<i>A palanquin of jasmine and gold</i>

1246
01:24:24,200 --> 01:24:26,580
<i>Lord Manikanta ascends

1247
01:24:42,870 --> 01:24:45,080
<i>Swamiye...</i>

1248
01:24:45,200 --> 01:24:47,120
Ayyappa!

1249
01:24:48,160 --> 01:24:50,750
<i>A palanquin of jasmine and gold</i>

1250
01:24:50,830 --> 01:24:53,160
<i>Lord Manikanta ascends

1251
01:24:53,250 --> 01:24:55,580
<i>A palanquin of jasmine and gold</i>

1252
01:24:55,660 --> 01:24:58,410
<i>Lord Manikanta ascends
The sacred palanquin</i>

1253
01:25:01,120 --> 01:25:02,120
Run them over!

1254
01:25:11,950 --> 01:25:14,410
Go! Run them over!

1255
01:25:15,660 --> 01:25:18,660
Polluru is just past this forest.
Come on! Ram him!

1256
01:25:18,750 --> 01:25:20,410
Give me the sacred ash!

1257
01:25:20,580 --> 01:25:21,540
Swamy, here!

1258
01:25:34,330 --> 01:25:36,290
- Swamy Sharanam!
- Swamy Sharanam!

1259
01:25:40,450 --> 01:25:42,000
POLLURU

1260
01:25:52,250 --> 01:25:55,290
Swamy, don't say anything
to Kaveri. She will worry.

1261
01:25:56,750 --> 01:25:57,620
Ugh!

1262
01:25:58,450 --> 01:25:59,410
Dad!

1263
01:26:00,000 --> 01:26:02,250
- Manamma!
- Manikanta, my dear!

1264
01:26:05,080 --> 01:26:07,790
- Wait, Swamy.
- What happened to Manamma?

1265
01:26:08,910 --> 01:26:10,250
Your daughter has come of age.

1266
01:26:15,160 --> 01:26:16,410
That is good news, Swamy.

1267
01:26:18,790 --> 01:26:19,870
- Dear Manikanta!
- Swamy.

1268
01:26:21,330 --> 01:26:24,080
You cannot enter the house until
the day of her ceremonial bath.

1269
01:26:24,700 --> 01:26:25,700
You must not see her.

1270
01:26:28,660 --> 01:26:29,750
Swamy!

1271
01:26:30,910 --> 01:26:32,330
What's wrong?

1272
01:26:34,080 --> 01:26:36,330
Is it because
you can't see your daughter?

1273
01:26:37,040 --> 01:26:38,330
You want to break the vow instead?

1274
01:26:39,040 --> 01:26:39,950
No, Guru Swamy.

1275
01:26:40,330 --> 01:26:43,790
All of this is for my Manamma.
I'll sleep at the temple.

1276
01:26:44,580 --> 01:26:47,410
- Alright. I'll send Lakshmi over to help.
- Okay, Guru Swamy.

1277
01:26:49,700 --> 01:26:52,120
Swamy! I'll look after her.

1278
01:27:06,410 --> 01:27:07,700
Swamy, where's your phone?

1279
01:27:08,160 --> 01:27:10,370
You daughter tried
reaching you so many times.

1280
01:27:11,040 --> 01:27:13,160
It broke. I gave it in for repair.

1281
01:27:13,870 --> 01:27:14,750
By the way...

1282
01:27:16,160 --> 01:27:17,160
How is Manamma doing?

1283
01:27:18,120 --> 01:27:20,200
She kept crying out for you.

1284
01:27:21,540 --> 01:27:22,870
She wanted to tell you something.

1285
01:27:23,950 --> 01:27:27,750
I told her she can tell you later,
put her to bed, and came over.

1286
01:27:28,750 --> 01:27:31,580
Why did she scream like that?
She must've been in a lot of pain.

1287
01:27:34,250 --> 01:27:36,410
It's natural for every girl, Swamy.

1288
01:27:39,250 --> 01:27:40,910
Are you tearing up?

1289
01:27:43,120 --> 01:27:45,330
Three days every month,

1290
01:27:46,000 --> 01:27:49,000
I see what you women all go through.

1291
01:27:49,830 --> 01:27:52,950
Does my little girl
have to go through that pain too?

1292
01:27:54,700 --> 01:27:55,580
Swamy...

1293
01:27:56,830 --> 01:27:58,000
Look at me.

1294
01:28:00,750 --> 01:28:01,620
Not now.

1295
01:28:02,500 --> 01:28:05,000
Just wait until
her coming-of-age ceremony.

1296
01:28:06,370 --> 01:28:07,620
She'll be anointed with
turmeric and sandalwood,

1297
01:28:07,700 --> 01:28:09,080
draped in a silk half-sari,

1298
01:28:09,500 --> 01:28:13,410
seated royally like a queen
and showered with love and blessings.

1299
01:28:14,620 --> 01:28:15,620
You'll understand then.

1300
01:28:21,330 --> 01:28:22,830
Let's get her nose pierced.

1301
01:28:23,500 --> 01:28:26,410
She's too young.
Let's do it when she can handle the pain.

1302
01:28:26,500 --> 01:28:28,160
Gold prices are rising, Swamy.

1303
01:28:28,330 --> 01:28:31,200
I'll sell my land if I must.
Just wait till you see the celebration.

1304
01:28:31,330 --> 01:28:35,250
You will. You'd do anything
for your daughter. I know that.

1305
01:28:39,660 --> 01:28:41,540
<i>If you don't do as I say,</i>

1306
01:28:41,870 --> 01:28:43,750
<i>I'll ensure you don't get
your hall ticket.</i>

1307
01:28:49,080 --> 01:28:50,000
Sister...

1308
01:28:55,080 --> 01:28:57,160
Gayatri has been acting strangely lately.

1309
01:28:57,700 --> 01:28:59,000
- Why so?
- I don't know.

1310
01:28:59,250 --> 01:29:00,500
After her special class,

1311
01:29:00,580 --> 01:29:03,330
she shuts herself in her room
without talking to anyone.

1312
01:29:04,040 --> 01:29:05,500
She barely eats or sleeps.

1313
01:29:06,080 --> 01:29:08,910
Maybe she's stressed about
the tenth-grade board exams.

1314
01:29:10,120 --> 01:29:11,040
By the way,

1315
01:29:11,410 --> 01:29:13,910
how's Manamma?
She isn't worried, is she?

1316
01:29:14,080 --> 01:29:17,040
She's been pestering me
to meet Gayatri since yesterday.

1317
01:29:17,750 --> 01:29:18,660
Is that so?

1318
01:29:19,290 --> 01:29:22,620
Okay, Kaveri. If Gayatri wishes,
I'll send her over in the evening.

1319
01:29:24,620 --> 01:29:26,500
Manamma... How are you?

1320
01:29:26,750 --> 01:29:28,910
Listen to your mother. Take care.

1321
01:29:29,910 --> 01:29:30,790
I'll come back, Kaveri.

1322
01:29:30,870 --> 01:29:32,080
Okay, Lakshmamma.

1323
01:29:33,910 --> 01:29:35,750
- I'll serve the food. Sit down.
- Mom!

1324
01:29:36,620 --> 01:29:38,370
Take me to Dad.

1325
01:29:39,200 --> 01:29:41,450
You shouldn't meet dad
at this time, dear.

1326
01:29:41,750 --> 01:29:45,080
- He'll be back in two days.
- NO! Take me right now!

1327
01:29:45,500 --> 01:29:46,410
Manamma!

1328
01:29:47,120 --> 01:29:49,700
I'll see him from a distance, Mom.

1329
01:29:53,870 --> 01:29:56,120
Here's today's list
of ingredients for the offering.

1330
01:29:56,500 --> 01:29:57,370
- Swamy...
- Yes.

1331
01:29:57,450 --> 01:29:59,160
Also invite the MLA for the prayer.

1332
01:29:59,250 --> 01:30:00,410
- Okay, Guru Swamy!
- Slow down, Manamma.

1333
01:30:01,750 --> 01:30:04,080
- Dad! Dad!
- Wait.

1334
01:30:04,450 --> 01:30:05,750
Manamma, wait. Don't run.

1335
01:30:05,830 --> 01:30:06,870
- Swamy!
- Dad!

1336
01:30:13,120 --> 01:30:14,080
- Trimoorthulu.
- Sir.

1337
01:30:14,160 --> 01:30:16,080
No one's pension
or benefits should be held up.

1338
01:30:16,160 --> 01:30:17,370
- Yes, sir.
- Visit every village.

1339
01:30:17,500 --> 01:30:19,000
- Once I return, I'll enquire myself.
- Swamy!

1340
01:30:19,120 --> 01:30:20,410
- Okay, sir.
- Greetings, Swamy.

1341
01:30:21,620 --> 01:30:23,580
What brings you here, Trinadh Swamy?

1342
01:30:23,700 --> 01:30:25,790
We're having a prayer
tonight at Polluru's temple.

1343
01:30:26,160 --> 01:30:28,080
Guru Swamy sent me to invite you.

1344
01:30:28,330 --> 01:30:31,160
I'm leaving for Bejawada on urgent work.
I won't be here for two days.

1345
01:30:31,660 --> 01:30:33,000
I'll come during the <i>Irumudi</i> ceremony.

1346
01:30:33,410 --> 01:30:34,830
- Swamy...
- Yes?

1347
01:30:36,410 --> 01:30:38,080
My daughter has attained puberty.

1348
01:30:38,450 --> 01:30:40,080
Swamiye Sharanam Ayyappa.

1349
01:30:41,000 --> 01:30:42,540
You should definitely
attend the celebration.

1350
01:30:43,120 --> 01:30:45,410
I'll come with madam and bless her.

1351
01:30:45,580 --> 01:30:47,750
- Happy?
- Very happy, Swamy.

1352
01:31:06,450 --> 01:31:07,450
We're out of petrol.

1353
01:31:07,540 --> 01:31:09,660
Let me get it
from the nearest village. You stay here.

1354
01:31:10,080 --> 01:31:11,830
- Babu.
- What?

1355
01:31:12,250 --> 01:31:14,540
I'm scared to stay alone here.

1356
01:31:14,910 --> 01:31:15,830
Didn't I say I'd be back?

1357
01:31:22,750 --> 01:31:24,040
I'm out of money.

1358
01:31:24,830 --> 01:31:27,450
I'll have to work at that
poultry farm for ten days...

1359
01:31:36,250 --> 01:31:38,040
Brother, I need to pee.

1360
01:31:40,700 --> 01:31:43,250
- Whose bike is that?
- Looks like some drunk left it here.

1361
01:31:47,620 --> 01:31:48,830
- Brother!
- Huh?

1362
01:32:02,700 --> 01:32:06,910
<i>- Sri Swamiye...
- Sharanam Ayyappa!</i>

1363
01:32:07,200 --> 01:32:11,330
- Son of Harihara...
<i>- Sharanam Ayyappa!</i>

1364
01:32:20,330 --> 01:32:22,540
Trinadh Swamy, Here you go.

1365
01:32:24,790 --> 01:32:28,250
- O Lord and Sustainer of life...
<i>- Sharanam Ayyappa!</i>

1366
01:32:28,330 --> 01:32:31,790
- O Dharma Shasta of Thirimeli...
- Sharanam Ayyappa!

1367
01:32:31,870 --> 01:32:34,790
- O Lord of Karimala...
- Sharanam Ayyappa!

1368
01:32:34,910 --> 01:32:38,040
- O Dweller of Neelimala...
<i>- Sharanam Ayyappa!</i>

1369
01:32:40,620 --> 01:32:42,250
Gayatri hasn't come home yet, Swamy.

1370
01:32:42,540 --> 01:32:45,500
It's already past ten.
I'm feeling worried.

1371
01:32:53,410 --> 01:32:54,700
- Babu Swamy!
- Yes, Swamy.

1372
01:32:54,870 --> 01:32:56,250
Gayatri hasn't come home yet.

1373
01:32:56,580 --> 01:32:57,540
Isn't class over yet? Huh?

1374
01:32:57,830 --> 01:32:59,660
There was no
special class today, Swamy.

1375
01:32:59,910 --> 01:33:01,160
The teacher isn't in town either.

1376
01:33:01,450 --> 01:33:03,080
She must've come
straight home from school.

1377
01:33:08,040 --> 01:33:09,950
He said there wasn't
any special class today.

1378
01:33:10,540 --> 01:33:11,750
What could've happened, Swamy?

1379
01:33:12,620 --> 01:33:14,540
Maybe she went to a friend's house.

1380
01:33:27,290 --> 01:33:29,580
Guru Swamy, it's almost 12 am.

1381
01:33:29,870 --> 01:33:32,040
- Shall we file a police complaint?
- The police station?

1382
01:33:32,120 --> 01:33:34,290
I think those Donkarayi fellows
are behind this, Swamy.

1383
01:33:34,700 --> 01:33:38,660
- What's the hold up? Let's go search!
- Come on. Let's look.

1384
01:33:45,950 --> 01:33:47,370
What's going on, Swamy?

1385
01:34:16,410 --> 01:34:21,040
- Swamiye...
- Sharanam Ayyappa!

1386
01:34:27,000 --> 01:34:29,500
Gayatri still hasn't come home
from school, Swamy!

1387
01:34:29,790 --> 01:34:31,870
- Entire village has gone looking for her.
- Come, Swamy.

1388
01:34:59,660 --> 01:35:00,620
Anyone here?

1389
01:35:02,830 --> 01:35:04,290
- Swamy, look around.
- Okay, Swamy.

1390
01:35:14,200 --> 01:35:15,790
Swamy, did you see anyone?

1391
01:35:15,870 --> 01:35:17,290
Swamy, there's no one here.

1392
01:35:17,950 --> 01:35:19,910
Guru Swamy! Guru Swamy!

1393
01:35:21,870 --> 01:35:22,750
Guru Swamy!

1394
01:35:22,910 --> 01:35:25,750
They found a girl's body in the bushes
near the banyan tree by the dam.

1395
01:35:27,370 --> 01:35:28,830
Firewood gatherers alerted us.

1396
01:35:33,370 --> 01:35:34,410
Hey, is it over there?

1397
01:35:34,700 --> 01:35:35,580
Over here!

1398
01:35:36,000 --> 01:35:38,330
- Come on!
- Let's go.

1399
01:35:47,040 --> 01:35:48,250
In those bushes, Guru Swamy.

1400
01:36:01,160 --> 01:36:02,040
Guru Swamy...

1401
01:36:04,080 --> 01:36:05,910
Surely it can't be our Gayatri.

1402
01:36:06,750 --> 01:36:08,540
We won't know until we see who it is.

1403
01:36:09,700 --> 01:36:10,830
Don't be afraid to look.

1404
01:36:17,250 --> 01:36:18,330
Please, God!

1405
01:36:34,370 --> 01:36:37,120
Guru Swamy... It isn't our Gayatri, right?

1406
01:36:37,500 --> 01:36:39,040
Guru Swamy... it isn't Gayatri, right?

1407
01:36:42,000 --> 01:36:43,580
It's Manikanta, dear.

1408
01:36:45,080 --> 01:36:47,750
- Huh?
- Manamma...

1409
01:38:07,120 --> 01:38:08,080
Guru Swamy!

1410
01:38:10,830 --> 01:38:13,330
Who is it? It isn't our Gayatri, right?

1411
01:38:14,580 --> 01:38:16,080
I'm coming down, Swamy.

1412
01:38:21,080 --> 01:38:22,580
Swamy, it isn't Gayatri, right?

1413
01:38:24,370 --> 01:38:26,790
Why is everyone just staring mutely?

1414
01:38:34,290 --> 01:38:35,160
Who is it, Swamy?

1415
01:38:36,200 --> 01:38:39,330
It isn't our Gayatri, is it?
She's safe, right?

1416
01:38:42,830 --> 01:38:44,000
Why aren't you answering, Swamy?

1417
01:38:49,370 --> 01:38:52,370
Mother, it isn't Gayatri, right? Tell me!

1418
01:38:58,120 --> 01:39:00,080
Our... Manamma.

1419
01:39:18,500 --> 01:39:19,870
It's Manamma!

1420
01:39:40,580 --> 01:39:41,450
Trinadh!

1421
01:40:05,500 --> 01:40:07,620
Swamy, Gayatri has returned home.

1422
01:40:08,250 --> 01:40:10,660
She fainted in the classroom
yesterday evening

1423
01:40:10,830 --> 01:40:13,950
and the peon locked the room
without noticing. She's fine now.

1424
01:40:22,250 --> 01:40:24,870
Guru Swamy...
if you break your vow now,

1425
01:40:25,200 --> 01:40:27,950
tomorrow's <i>Irumudi</i> rituals
will have to be canceled.

1426
01:40:28,540 --> 01:40:29,700
What should we do?

1427
01:40:30,750 --> 01:40:32,790
A child lies dead there.

1428
01:40:34,950 --> 01:40:37,330
Who will console her parents?

1429
01:40:38,910 --> 01:40:40,250
Please forgive me, Swamy.

1430
01:40:42,200 --> 01:40:44,500
Please bring in another
Guru Swamy from elsewhere.

1431
01:41:04,580 --> 01:41:08,080
<i>She wanted to tell you something.
She kept calling for you.</i>

1432
01:41:09,000 --> 01:41:12,620
<i>She wanted to tell you something.
She kept calling for you.</i>

1433
01:41:19,200 --> 01:41:21,080
Brother is at the temple junction.

1434
01:41:26,620 --> 01:41:27,500
Trinadh...

1435
01:41:28,700 --> 01:41:31,500
- What are you doing?
- Kaveri, is Manamma awake?

1436
01:41:33,160 --> 01:41:35,910
Manamma is no longer with us.

1437
01:41:36,790 --> 01:41:39,370
- Last rites...
- What are you saying, Kaveri?

1438
01:41:39,750 --> 01:41:40,950
Did you have a nightmare?

1439
01:41:41,290 --> 01:41:43,700
Didn't you say she fell asleep
calling out for me?

1440
01:41:44,160 --> 01:41:46,580
Poor child, I wonder
what she wanted to tell me.

1441
01:41:47,160 --> 01:41:49,830
I wasn't there for her.
She'll tell me when she wakes.

1442
01:41:52,580 --> 01:41:53,500
Guru Swamy...

1443
01:41:54,200 --> 01:41:57,500
Last rites must conclude before dawn.
Or it's a bad omen for the village.

1444
01:41:57,620 --> 01:42:00,290
If you permit,
we'll go ahead with the rituals.

1445
01:42:00,370 --> 01:42:03,370
Didn't I tell you my daughter is asleep?
No one must go near her.

1446
01:42:03,750 --> 01:42:05,370
Guru Swamy, send everyone away.

1447
01:42:05,870 --> 01:42:09,290
- Hey, Suri. Come here. Come here!
- Brother?

1448
01:42:09,950 --> 01:42:13,200
Hey, I shouldn't hear any sound
from the surroundings.

1449
01:42:13,290 --> 01:42:14,330
Got it? Go.

1450
01:42:19,200 --> 01:42:20,080
Brother!

1451
01:42:20,790 --> 01:42:23,250
Brother, don't honk near
the temple junction.

1452
01:42:23,500 --> 01:42:25,660
- Who are you to tell me that?
- Brother...

1453
01:42:27,830 --> 01:42:28,910
Hey! Who are you, man?

1454
01:42:30,330 --> 01:42:32,290
Didn't I send someone to tell you

1455
01:42:32,750 --> 01:42:35,660
my daughter has a fever
and ask you not to honk?

1456
01:42:36,750 --> 01:42:38,040
- Where are you from?
- Chintoor, sir.

1457
01:42:38,410 --> 01:42:40,160
- What brings you to Polluru?
- We came for sand.

1458
01:42:40,790 --> 01:42:41,700
Show me the vehicle papers.

1459
01:42:49,830 --> 01:42:52,750
- Suri! Don't let a single vehicle through.
- Brother!

1460
01:42:52,830 --> 01:42:54,750
Any new person entering the village,

1461
01:42:54,910 --> 01:42:56,700
I want to know who they are
and why they've come.

1462
01:42:56,790 --> 01:42:57,700
Got it, brother.

1463
01:43:04,580 --> 01:43:07,540
Hey Appu, Trinadh will be looking for me.

1464
01:43:07,660 --> 01:43:08,750
Don't go out.

1465
01:43:09,250 --> 01:43:11,660
Shut down our belt shop
in the market and disappear.

1466
01:43:14,790 --> 01:43:17,040
I'll step out and call you
after three days.

1467
01:43:51,660 --> 01:43:54,620
Hey, Erraji! Erraji!

1468
01:44:06,500 --> 01:44:08,160
ERRAJI WINE SHOP

1469
01:44:10,910 --> 01:44:13,830
Erraji? He hasn't been seen
around the market for the past two days.

1470
01:44:15,290 --> 01:44:18,450
What a tragedy!
They didn't even spare a young girl.

1471
01:44:18,910 --> 01:44:20,910
Whoever did this will suffer!

1472
01:45:11,910 --> 01:45:13,290
Why did you run when you saw me?

1473
01:45:14,370 --> 01:45:16,410
- Tell me!
- We didn't hurt Gayatri.

1474
01:45:18,330 --> 01:45:19,200
Gayatri?

1475
01:45:19,790 --> 01:45:22,790
What did you plan to do to her? Tell me!

1476
01:45:22,870 --> 01:45:26,200
That night... Gayatri was alone
on the bridge, so we went closer.

1477
01:45:30,700 --> 01:45:33,870
Just then, a white car stopped.
It was the MLA.

1478
01:45:34,450 --> 01:45:36,330
Who are you? What are you doing here?

1479
01:45:38,410 --> 01:45:40,910
Gayatri! What are you doing here?

1480
01:45:41,250 --> 01:45:43,870
Babu went out to get petrol, sir.

1481
01:45:44,750 --> 01:45:47,000
How could he leave
a girl alone in the dark?

1482
01:45:47,660 --> 01:45:48,660
Come here.

1483
01:45:48,910 --> 01:45:52,040
He said he'd drop Gayatri home
and drove away with her.

1484
01:45:52,660 --> 01:45:54,790
We didn't do anything. We didn't!

1485
01:45:56,790 --> 01:45:57,750
The MLA?

1486
01:45:58,200 --> 01:46:00,120
<i>Guru Swamy sent me to invite you.</i>

1487
01:46:00,660 --> 01:46:03,000
<i>I'm leaving for Bejawada on urgent work.</i>

1488
01:46:03,910 --> 01:46:05,450
<i>I won't be here for two days.</i>

1489
01:46:06,200 --> 01:46:08,000
<i>I'll come during the Irumudi ceremony.</i>

1490
01:46:11,700 --> 01:46:13,910
If he wasn't going to be in town,

1491
01:46:14,370 --> 01:46:16,790
why did the MLA
give Gayatri a ride that day?

1492
01:46:26,790 --> 01:46:27,660
What happened, brother?

1493
01:46:28,580 --> 01:46:29,450
Any news?

1494
01:46:31,540 --> 01:46:32,540
The phone is fixed, brother.

1495
01:46:33,250 --> 01:46:34,790
Call my sister-in-law.

1496
01:46:35,910 --> 01:46:39,700
It scares me to see you like this.
Drink up and cry your heart out.

1497
01:46:45,200 --> 01:46:46,870
I'll stay with sister-in-law.

1498
01:46:54,450 --> 01:46:56,450
<i>Dad, when are you coming home?</i>

1499
01:46:57,160 --> 01:46:59,660
<i>I can't sleep without you.</i>

1500
01:47:00,910 --> 01:47:04,330
<i>I can't stay all alone in this room.</i>

1501
01:47:05,080 --> 01:47:06,790
<i>Please come back home, Dad.</i>

1502
01:47:13,910 --> 01:47:14,790
<i>Dad!</i>

1503
01:47:23,830 --> 01:47:24,830
<i>Dad!</i>

1504
01:48:04,870 --> 01:48:05,910
Where are you?

1505
01:48:06,500 --> 01:48:07,370
Guru Swamy.

1506
01:48:08,370 --> 01:48:09,830
I'm starving, Guru Swamy.

1507
01:48:10,540 --> 01:48:12,370
Can you bring me some food
down by the dam?

1508
01:48:18,790 --> 01:48:19,660
I'm coming.

1509
01:48:22,290 --> 01:48:24,000
I've been looking all over for you.

1510
01:48:31,910 --> 01:48:34,950
Your daughter's body is lying at home,
and you're thinking about food?

1511
01:48:35,870 --> 01:48:37,410
You have a heart of stone, Trinadh.

1512
01:48:40,160 --> 01:48:42,620
My heart breaks for poor Kaveri.

1513
01:48:43,620 --> 01:48:45,160
She hasn't even had
a single drop of water.

1514
01:49:09,950 --> 01:49:12,870
My daughter
told me everything, Guru Swamy.

1515
01:49:14,080 --> 01:49:15,120
What did she say?

1516
01:49:24,830 --> 01:49:26,910
Dad. Guru Swamy uncle...

1517
01:49:27,580 --> 01:49:29,000
He's going to kill me, Dad.

1518
01:49:29,500 --> 01:49:30,620
He's going to kill me.

1519
01:49:39,370 --> 01:49:43,080
Let me see my wife
and Gayatri one last time.

1520
01:50:01,040 --> 01:50:03,370
What did you
do to my daughter, Goparaju?

1521
01:50:05,040 --> 01:50:07,160
<i>- Swamiye!</i>
- That day during the bhajan,

1522
01:50:07,580 --> 01:50:09,040
- the call I got wasn't from my wife.
- Sharanam Ayyappa!

1523
01:50:13,950 --> 01:50:16,290
- Swamy?
- It's me, the MLA.

1524
01:50:17,000 --> 01:50:18,750
Come to the teacher's house right away.

1525
01:50:20,080 --> 01:50:21,330
I am at the bhajan, Swamy.

1526
01:50:21,750 --> 01:50:24,250
It's an emergency! Hurry up.

1527
01:50:24,950 --> 01:50:25,830
Alright!

1528
01:50:26,750 --> 01:50:30,700
Wondering why the MLA wanted me
at the teacher's house, I rushed over.

1529
01:50:32,450 --> 01:50:33,410
Mr. Bujji?

1530
01:50:38,000 --> 01:50:38,950
Gayatri, dear?

1531
01:50:40,450 --> 01:50:41,330
Gayatri!

1532
01:50:42,790 --> 01:50:45,540
- Dad!
- What happened, dear?

1533
01:50:52,790 --> 01:50:56,790
Mr. Bujji, what happened
to my daughter? Teacher!

1534
01:50:57,120 --> 01:50:59,870
What you're about to hear
will disgust you, Guru Swamy.

1535
01:51:00,620 --> 01:51:02,330
But it's time to tell the truth.

1536
01:51:05,080 --> 01:51:06,750
I have a weakness.

1537
01:51:07,410 --> 01:51:08,620
For schoolgirls.

1538
01:51:17,120 --> 01:51:19,370
I just took a liking
to your daughter, too.

1539
01:51:20,910 --> 01:51:24,870
I went for a routine school inspection,
looking for a new girl.

1540
01:51:25,290 --> 01:51:27,250
- Goodbye, students!
- Bye, sir.

1541
01:51:27,330 --> 01:51:29,500
- Sir! Sir! Sir!
- Yes?

1542
01:51:30,540 --> 01:51:33,040
Thank you so much
for arranging the village bus, sir.

1543
01:51:33,160 --> 01:51:35,790
- Haven't I seen you somewhere before?
- That's Gayatri.

1544
01:51:36,450 --> 01:51:38,870
Tonight's "special class" is with her.

1545
01:51:39,500 --> 01:51:42,330
As long as you're at this school,
I'll be incredibly happy.

1546
01:51:42,750 --> 01:51:45,410
Thanks for revoking my suspension.

1547
01:51:46,500 --> 01:51:51,250
You'll get a 30% cut
from the new school building grant.

1548
01:51:54,790 --> 01:51:56,080
- Babu!
- Ma'am.

1549
01:51:56,290 --> 01:51:57,410
- Let me go, ma'am!
- Gayatri!

1550
01:51:57,500 --> 01:51:59,540
- Listen to me.
- Let me go! I'll tell my parents!

1551
01:51:59,660 --> 01:52:01,500
If you don't do as I say,

1552
01:52:02,200 --> 01:52:04,000
I'll ensure you don't get
your hall ticket.

1553
01:52:04,580 --> 01:52:06,040
Don't frighten her, Teacher.

1554
01:52:10,000 --> 01:52:13,450
Teacher, how could you do this to a child?

1555
01:52:14,830 --> 01:52:18,330
Right then, Trinadh showed up
at the teacher's house.

1556
01:52:18,700 --> 01:52:19,580
Who is that?

1557
01:52:19,660 --> 01:52:24,750
He had no idea I was inside.
And Gayatri didn't tell him either.

1558
01:52:29,950 --> 01:52:32,500
As always, I spent some time with her

1559
01:52:32,620 --> 01:52:33,830
before sending her back.

1560
01:52:35,250 --> 01:52:37,290
But I ran into her again on the road.

1561
01:52:38,620 --> 01:52:41,790
Who are you guys?
What are you doing here?

1562
01:52:42,870 --> 01:52:45,330
Gayatri, dear. Come here.

1563
01:52:55,040 --> 01:52:56,370
And right at that moment,

1564
01:52:57,330 --> 01:52:59,290
all hell broke loose, Guru Swamy.

1565
01:53:00,790 --> 01:53:02,700
Manikanta, no.

1566
01:53:03,370 --> 01:53:05,080
- I'm scared.
- Come on, sister.

1567
01:53:05,200 --> 01:53:07,040
Let's get Gayatri out of here.

1568
01:53:08,000 --> 01:53:10,410
- Manikanta, wait. Listen to me.
- Just come, sister.

1569
01:53:11,120 --> 01:53:12,040
Manikanta!

1570
01:53:19,870 --> 01:53:22,080
- Once. Only once more.
- Please, sir! Let me go!

1571
01:53:23,500 --> 01:53:24,370
Hey!

1572
01:53:28,330 --> 01:53:29,830
Manikanta, hurry.

1573
01:53:30,580 --> 01:53:32,290
Hey! Hey! Hey! Stop!

1574
01:53:34,040 --> 01:53:36,700
- Hey, who is that?
- That's Trinadh's daughter, sir.

1575
01:53:36,790 --> 01:53:38,580
- She'll tell her father everything.
- Catch her!

1576
01:53:45,620 --> 01:53:49,200
What if Manikanta
blurts everything out to her dad?

1577
01:53:50,450 --> 01:53:52,620
My 30-year political career
would be ruined.

1578
01:53:52,700 --> 01:53:55,450
Hey! You monster!

1579
01:53:57,330 --> 01:53:59,040
My daughter is just a little girl!

1580
01:54:00,410 --> 01:54:04,950
- How can you ruin her life like this?
- Guru Swamy!

1581
01:54:07,790 --> 01:54:09,950
You're taking this the wrong way.

1582
01:54:11,290 --> 01:54:13,950
I've probably been with
so many girls by now.

1583
01:54:15,370 --> 01:54:19,160
I only killed the four
who refused to listen.

1584
01:54:22,410 --> 01:54:25,410
Got a problem?
Keep it to yourself. Tell no one.

1585
01:54:27,870 --> 01:54:29,540
<i>The next girl on my list was...</i>

1586
01:54:31,370 --> 01:54:35,080
<i>Erraji's daughter.
I mean... Nagulu's sister.</i>

1587
01:54:36,950 --> 01:54:39,750
<i>She met her brother in the forest
and confessed everything.</i>

1588
01:54:40,870 --> 01:54:44,040
<i>- He found out I was enjoying his sister.</i>
- Teacher, come outside.

1589
01:54:44,870 --> 01:54:48,040
<i>I was furious when Nagulu confronted
the teacher and threatened her.</i>

1590
01:54:48,910 --> 01:54:53,410
<i>So I had him killed and framed Trinadh.</i>

1591
01:54:58,950 --> 01:55:00,580
Gayatri isn't like the others.
She's a good girl.

1592
01:55:00,790 --> 01:55:03,790
I was planning to let her go,
until this mess. Tell him, teacher.

1593
01:55:07,290 --> 01:55:08,160
Guru Swamy.

1594
01:55:08,950 --> 01:55:11,830
Without overthinking this,
just bring Manikanta here.

1595
01:55:13,500 --> 01:55:16,540
We'll give her a stern warning
and send her home.

1596
01:55:17,750 --> 01:55:19,500
Why are you hesitating, Guru Swamy?

1597
01:55:22,830 --> 01:55:26,410
With a single click,
your daughter's life will fall apart.

1598
01:55:39,870 --> 01:55:43,000
Lakshmamma! Lakshmamma!

1599
01:55:44,450 --> 01:55:47,160
- What is it?
- Manamma has a stomach ache.

1600
01:55:47,330 --> 01:55:49,450
- Do you have any fenugreek seeds?
- Yes, I'll get you some.

1601
01:55:49,790 --> 01:55:50,660
Where's Gayatri?

1602
01:55:53,250 --> 01:55:54,120
Uncle!

1603
01:55:56,040 --> 01:55:57,910
That MLA isn't a good man, uncle.

1604
01:55:58,040 --> 01:56:00,700
They are torturing Gayatri
at the teacher's house.

1605
01:56:00,870 --> 01:56:02,290
Sowji and I saw it with our own eyes.

1606
01:56:03,660 --> 01:56:05,830
- Is that true?
- Yes.

1607
01:56:06,120 --> 01:56:08,790
Come on, let's go get Gayatri.

1608
01:56:17,290 --> 01:56:20,200
Uncle, why did you stop here?

1609
01:56:21,910 --> 01:56:23,540
Did you break your vow?

1610
01:56:51,910 --> 01:56:54,500
Did you tell anyone what you saw, dear?

1611
01:56:56,540 --> 01:56:57,500
She didn't, sir.

1612
01:56:58,410 --> 01:57:00,200
She won't say a word. I promise.

1613
01:57:00,700 --> 01:57:02,330
I don't trust her, Guru Swamy.

1614
01:57:02,410 --> 01:57:05,580
If you want,
I'll make her swear it, sir. My dear!

1615
01:57:06,790 --> 01:57:10,000
Don't tell your dad
about what happened to Gayatri.

1616
01:57:10,950 --> 01:57:14,330
- I'll tell him, uncle!
- She will, Guru Swamy.

1617
01:57:15,200 --> 01:57:18,330
Because your upbringing
is different from her father's.

1618
01:57:20,290 --> 01:57:22,950
I'll wait outside. Finish her off.

1619
01:57:31,580 --> 01:57:32,540
Sir...

1620
01:57:42,750 --> 01:57:43,870
I can't do this.

1621
01:57:44,870 --> 01:57:47,160
I could kill her myself, Guru Swamy.

1622
01:57:48,290 --> 01:57:50,910
But then I'm tied to the crime,
while you go scot-free.

1623
01:57:52,250 --> 01:57:53,790
I wouldn't be able to sleep at night.

1624
01:57:56,080 --> 01:57:57,660
You don't have a choice, Guru Swamy.

1625
01:57:58,790 --> 01:58:01,330
His daughter or yours?

1626
01:58:13,450 --> 01:58:15,450
What happened, uncle?

1627
01:58:16,290 --> 01:58:17,160
Dear.

1628
01:58:17,540 --> 01:58:22,870
They have explicit videos of Gayatri.

1629
01:58:23,870 --> 01:58:25,040
If those videos get leaked...

1630
01:58:26,450 --> 01:58:30,620
it won't just destroy her dignity,
but also our lives.

1631
01:58:31,790 --> 01:58:35,330
- Don't tell your dad.
- I'll tell him, uncle.

1632
01:58:36,040 --> 01:58:40,160
I will tell Dad everything
about him and that teacher.

1633
01:58:41,200 --> 01:58:42,620
Poor Gayatri!

1634
01:58:43,290 --> 01:58:46,160
She was so terrified
she couldn't tell anyone.

1635
01:58:46,540 --> 01:58:50,080
- But I'm definitely telling my Dad.
- No, please!

1636
01:58:50,790 --> 01:58:54,120
- Listen to me, don't tell your dad.
- I'll tell him.

1637
01:58:54,330 --> 01:58:57,950
- I'll beg at your feet. Don't tell him!
- I will, uncle.

1638
01:58:58,040 --> 01:58:59,580
- Please don't.
- I'll tell him.

1639
01:59:00,500 --> 01:59:04,750
My daughter's life will be ruined.
Please don't tell him.

1640
01:59:04,830 --> 01:59:06,950
- I'll tell Dad! I will...
- Don't tell him, dear. Please don't.

1641
01:59:07,250 --> 01:59:08,370
- Don't!
- I will...

1642
01:59:31,000 --> 01:59:32,370
I didn't have a choice...

1643
01:59:33,700 --> 01:59:35,200
Considering my daughter's situation...

1644
01:59:36,660 --> 01:59:39,250
I loved your daughter
like my own, Goparaju.

1645
01:59:40,080 --> 01:59:42,250
But you didn't.

1646
01:59:42,620 --> 01:59:43,830
Why should I?

1647
01:59:44,660 --> 01:59:45,580
Why should I?

1648
01:59:47,080 --> 01:59:50,290
Did you raise her like a daughter at all?

1649
01:59:51,750 --> 01:59:55,950
You spoiled her by constantly
teaching her to "tell dad everything!"

1650
01:59:56,620 --> 01:59:57,500
Hey!

1651
01:59:58,290 --> 02:00:00,790
I saved my daughter
by teaching her to stay silent.

1652
02:00:02,120 --> 02:00:04,700
But you got yours killed
by encouraging her to speak.

1653
02:00:08,370 --> 02:00:11,330
When you raise a girl,
you need a little healthy fear.

1654
02:00:12,950 --> 02:00:14,790
Neither you nor she had that fear!

1655
02:00:16,410 --> 02:00:17,330
That's why...

1656
02:00:18,620 --> 02:00:19,870
She paid with her life.

1657
02:00:25,160 --> 02:00:27,700
People from many villages
fall at my feet in reverence.

1658
02:00:29,000 --> 02:00:30,830
Yet I fell at your daughter's feet to beg!

1659
02:00:33,910 --> 02:00:35,200
She wouldn't listen to me.

1660
02:00:39,620 --> 02:00:41,580
Even while I was strangling her to death,

1661
02:00:42,500 --> 02:00:46,330
she kept saying the same thing.
"I'll tell dad! I'll tell dad! I'll--"

1662
02:00:50,500 --> 02:00:51,450
Hey, Trinadh...

1663
02:01:05,790 --> 02:01:09,540
Almost done. Just hold on.

1664
02:01:10,790 --> 02:01:14,950
Raising a daughter isn't about
instilling fear in her, Goparaju.

1665
02:01:15,620 --> 02:01:18,040
It's about giving her the courage
to speak up without fear.

1666
02:01:25,700 --> 02:01:26,580
Dad!

1667
02:01:27,160 --> 02:01:30,080
Guru Swamy uncle is going to kill me.

1668
02:01:30,500 --> 02:01:31,620
He's killing me!

1669
02:02:07,910 --> 02:02:08,790
Kaveri!

1670
02:02:11,290 --> 02:02:12,160
Kaveri!

1671
02:02:24,870 --> 02:02:27,000
They put your daughter in a freezer!

1672
02:02:28,450 --> 02:02:29,870
I can't take this anymore.

1673
02:02:31,410 --> 02:02:34,500
Just look at her.
Like an abandoned corp--

1674
02:02:38,450 --> 02:02:39,700
Just one more night, Kaveri.

1675
02:02:40,500 --> 02:02:41,750
I have one last thing to do.

1676
02:02:42,200 --> 02:02:43,080
Once that's done,

1677
02:02:43,750 --> 02:02:47,290
I'll perform my daughter's
ceremonial bath tomorrow morning.

1678
02:02:48,790 --> 02:02:50,290
A ceremonial bath?

1679
02:02:51,250 --> 02:02:52,250
You know how I am.

1680
02:02:52,950 --> 02:02:56,250
Everything I do for my daughter,
I do as if for God.

1681
02:03:45,120 --> 02:03:47,040
What is it at this hour, Teacher?

1682
02:03:47,620 --> 02:03:49,000
You know Sowjanya, right?

1683
02:03:49,330 --> 02:03:51,500
- Yes.
- She's with me right now.

1684
02:03:51,790 --> 02:03:52,700
Do you want to come?

1685
02:03:56,700 --> 02:03:57,950
Why not?

1686
02:04:30,910 --> 02:04:31,790
Uncle!

1687
02:04:37,330 --> 02:04:38,250
Uncle!

1688
02:04:44,660 --> 02:04:45,580
Uncle!

1689
02:04:46,500 --> 02:04:47,370
Uncle!

1690
02:04:47,580 --> 02:04:48,950
- Gayatri!
- Hey!

1691
02:04:50,330 --> 02:04:53,790
If a lowly banana seller
can be this cunning,

1692
02:04:53,870 --> 02:04:55,700
imagine what an MLA like me can do!

1693
02:04:56,080 --> 02:04:57,250
What's your problem?

1694
02:04:57,790 --> 02:05:01,160
Besides, if you die now,
who'll perform her last rites?

1695
02:05:02,910 --> 02:05:06,620
Before I chop you to pieces,
see what I do to you now.

1696
02:05:07,450 --> 02:05:08,370
Uncle!

1697
02:05:13,830 --> 02:05:14,700
Gayatri!

1698
02:05:27,750 --> 02:05:28,700
Uncle!

1699
02:05:42,410 --> 02:05:43,620
Hey, stop him!

1700
02:05:56,830 --> 02:05:57,700
Uncle!

1701
02:06:07,620 --> 02:06:09,410
Uncle, Sowji...

1702
02:06:26,450 --> 02:06:28,500
Sowjanya, get up.

1703
02:06:30,410 --> 02:06:31,290
Uncle!

1704
02:06:54,200 --> 02:06:56,410
Madhu, don't let him
walk out alive. Kill him!

1705
02:07:30,500 --> 02:07:32,200
- Hey!
- Hey!

1706
02:07:32,330 --> 02:07:34,250
Take one more step and I'll kill her!

1707
02:07:34,370 --> 02:07:36,450
Hey, back off! Now!

1708
02:07:37,250 --> 02:07:38,250
Don't let him go, dear!

1709
02:07:39,950 --> 02:07:43,250
- Move back or I'll slit her throat!
- Don't let him escape, girls!

1710
02:07:44,750 --> 02:07:48,580
Once you grow up, even your parents
won't lay a hand on you.

1711
02:07:49,620 --> 02:07:53,040
And this monster
wanted to prey upon you.

1712
02:07:56,290 --> 02:07:59,080
Will you kill him
and bury your fear forever,

1713
02:07:59,830 --> 02:08:02,250
or live in fear
for the rest of your lives?

1714
02:08:14,910 --> 02:08:17,620
Die! Just die! Rot in hell!

1715
02:08:23,950 --> 02:08:27,040
Gayatri! Gayatri!

1716
02:08:27,120 --> 02:08:28,410
- Uncle!
- Gayatri!

1717
02:08:29,830 --> 02:08:30,700
You!

1718
02:08:30,910 --> 02:08:33,160
Are you really going to kill an MLA?

1719
02:08:34,040 --> 02:08:35,330
Do you realize the consequences?

1720
02:08:35,700 --> 02:08:37,700
Tomorrow,
my men will invade your village.

1721
02:08:38,500 --> 02:08:39,580
The police will hunt you down.

1722
02:08:39,790 --> 02:08:43,120
Your families, your people, you...
not a single one of you will survive!

1723
02:08:43,580 --> 02:08:46,290
The whole village will be a graveyard!
Is that what you want, huh?

1724
02:08:48,540 --> 02:08:50,040
Why did you stop?

1725
02:08:50,700 --> 02:08:51,910
Are you scared now?

1726
02:08:53,450 --> 02:08:56,410
They'll know only
if they find your severed head.

1727
02:09:09,370 --> 02:09:10,250
Teacher!

1728
02:09:11,790 --> 02:09:12,700
What happened, Teacher?

1729
02:09:17,950 --> 02:09:19,870
Hey, oh no!

1730
02:09:28,910 --> 02:09:31,870
A teacher ranks next to a parent.

1731
02:09:32,410 --> 02:09:35,330
They come to you with burdens
they can't share with their parents.

1732
02:09:35,660 --> 02:09:38,040
And you preyed upon them.

1733
02:09:38,580 --> 02:09:41,910
Not even your shadow
should touch a girl!

1734
02:10:24,500 --> 02:10:25,950
Manikanta, my child.

1735
02:10:26,370 --> 02:10:28,160
Your dad's here.

1736
02:10:28,500 --> 02:10:30,580
Look at him, my dear.

1737
02:10:36,080 --> 02:10:37,700
Manikanta, my child.

1738
02:11:40,160 --> 02:11:41,120
Trinadh.

1739
02:12:51,910 --> 02:12:58,330
<i>Manamma My precious gem of a soul</i>

1740
02:12:59,580 --> 02:13:05,910
<i>Maayammaa You're the gold we hold</i>

1741
02:13:07,000 --> 02:13:11,620
<i>Your voice still echoes
Through these winds</i>

1742
02:13:12,160 --> 02:13:16,540
<i>Your hopes still breathe
Within our souls</i>

1743
02:13:17,200 --> 02:13:21,580
<i>Your name is etched
Upon these paths</i>

1744
02:13:22,250 --> 02:13:26,660
<i>What must we do to
Bring you home?</i>

1745
02:13:37,330 --> 02:13:41,750
<i>Which nest have you flown to
Little bird?</i>

1746
02:13:42,120 --> 02:13:47,250
<i>Today, your song lives on
In every branch.</i>

1747
02:13:47,410 --> 02:13:51,910
<i>In which home have you
Blossomed, dear?</i>

1748
02:13:52,200 --> 02:13:55,700
<i>Look, your flowers
Bloom on every bough.</i>

1749
02:13:55,790 --> 02:13:58,000
He loved her more than
anything in the world.

1750
02:13:59,000 --> 02:14:00,370
She left him so suddenly.

1751
02:14:01,660 --> 02:14:02,830
She hasn't gone anywhere.

1752
02:14:04,500 --> 02:14:11,000
In my daughter... and in the future
of every girl standing here,

1753
02:14:11,830 --> 02:14:15,330
<i>- Narayana! Narayana!</i>
- Manikanta!

1754
02:14:15,410 --> 02:14:17,870
- Narayana! Narayana!
- Manikanta!

1755
02:14:40,660 --> 02:14:42,700
<i>At every turn in the story of time</i>

1756
02:14:43,120 --> 02:14:47,540
<i>In history's pages
In memory's arms</i>

1757
02:14:48,080 --> 02:14:50,290
<i>We will remember you, forevermore</i>

1758
02:14:50,620 --> 02:14:52,750
<i>In the tale that fate has written</i>

1759
02:14:53,290 --> 02:14:55,700
<i>- This is not the final chapter</i>
- Dad!

1760
02:14:55,790 --> 02:14:58,250
<i>In the battle that rises again</i>

1761
02:14:58,330 --> 02:15:00,330
<i>This is where the first step begins</i>

1762
02:15:00,830 --> 02:15:05,290
<i>Every coin has two sides
My precious one</i>

1763
02:15:05,750 --> 02:15:10,330
<i>But truth has never
Had a second side</i>

1764
02:15:10,950 --> 02:15:15,500
<i>My precious child
Born from this father's heart</i>

1765
02:15:15,870 --> 02:15:18,080
<i>- This witness stands as</i>
- Mani!

1766
02:15:18,160 --> 02:15:20,200
<i>- Proof of your courage</i>
- Manikanta!

1767
02:15:20,290 --> 02:15:22,830
- Manikanta!
- Mani!

1768
02:15:23,830 --> 02:15:24,790
Mani!

1769
02:15:25,080 --> 02:15:29,580
<i>Immortal in the heavens</i>

1770
02:15:30,330 --> 02:15:34,620
<i>Your battle along the way</i>

1771
02:15:35,330 --> 02:15:39,660
<i>Immortal in the heavens</i>

1772
02:15:41,120 --> 02:15:45,450
<i>Which nest have you flown to
Little bird?</i>

1773
02:15:45,870 --> 02:15:50,790
<i>Today, your song lives
On in every branch</i>

1774
02:15:51,290 --> 02:15:55,750
<i>In which home
Have you blossomed, dear?</i>

1775
02:15:56,000 --> 02:16:00,700
<i>Look, your flowers
Bloom on every bough</i>

1776
02:16:10,660 --> 02:16:13,410
THREE KARTHIKA MONTHS LATER

1777
02:16:30,660 --> 02:16:31,580
Greetings, Mother!

1778
02:16:32,870 --> 02:16:34,040
Is Guru Swamy Trinadh home?

1779
02:16:35,040 --> 02:16:36,160
He's at the temple, Swamy.

1780
02:16:39,200 --> 02:16:41,830
Om Shri Swamiye Sharanam Ayyappa!

1781
02:16:41,950 --> 02:16:44,290
Son of Hari and Hara!
Sharanam Ayyappa!

1782
02:16:44,580 --> 02:16:47,080
Protector in times of distress,
praise to You, O Lord Ayyappa.

1783
02:16:47,450 --> 02:16:49,790
Guardian of the helpless,
praise to You, O Lord Ayyappa.

1784
02:16:50,080 --> 02:16:51,790
- Om Shri Swamiye--
- Guru Swamy!

1785
02:16:54,660 --> 02:16:56,790
Someone from Rajahmundry
is here to see you.

1786
02:16:59,910 --> 02:17:02,450
I'm taking my daughter
to Sabarimala for the first time.

1787
02:17:02,910 --> 02:17:04,750
It would be a blessing
if you tied her <i>Irumudi.</i>

1788
02:17:08,540 --> 02:17:09,450
Where's our little Ayyappa?

1789
02:17:09,750 --> 02:17:10,830
Did you tell them, Mother?

1790
02:17:10,910 --> 02:17:12,120
- Manikanta, dear.
- Yes, I did.

1791
02:17:12,410 --> 02:17:13,830
- Yes, Swamy?
- Come here.

1792
02:17:13,950 --> 02:17:14,830
Yes.

1793
02:17:25,660 --> 02:17:27,700
What's wrong, Guru Swamy?

1794
02:17:28,250 --> 02:17:30,120
It's me, your Manamma.

1795
02:17:32,290 --> 02:17:36,250
How can you lose yourself
in grief over me like this?

1796
02:17:37,080 --> 02:17:41,500
I never left your side, Dad.

1797
02:17:42,580 --> 02:17:44,750
I'll live on in the vow you keep.

1798
02:17:45,450 --> 02:17:47,830
I'll be in every <i>Irumudi</i> you tie.

1799
02:17:50,370 --> 02:17:53,500
I entered your life for a reason.

1800
02:17:54,250 --> 02:17:57,830
When the time is right,
I'll return as your child, Swamy.

1801
02:18:00,250 --> 02:18:03,120
It's getting late. Lift the <i>Irumudi!</i>

1802
02:18:04,200 --> 02:18:06,700
<i>Ayyappa! Ayyappa!</i>

1803
02:18:06,830 --> 02:18:09,200
<i>Ayyappa! Ayyappa!</i>

1804
02:18:09,500 --> 02:18:14,370
<i>Ayyappo! Ayyappo!</i>

1805
02:18:14,450 --> 02:18:16,330
Swamiye Sharanam Ayyappa!

1806
02:18:25,500 --> 02:18:30,620
<i>Ayyappa! Ayyappa!</i>

1807
02:18:30,790 --> 02:18:36,040
<i>Ayyappo! Ayyappo!</i>
