Here you go!

For you, sir.

- Both are the same guy, sir. - Are you certain?

Yeah, sir. Same guy. Confirmed.

Hey, get the car moving.

- Good morning, sir. - Good morning.

Is he here?

Uh, sir?

We're from the police.

He's in room 1110.

- Here? - This one, sir.

Check here.

No one seems to be here.

- Sir? - Mmm?

Should we check the next room?

What now?

- Who the hell are you? Move! - Who is it?

- Running a hookup joint in here? - What is this?

- What's the deal? - Shut your trap!

You messing with me?

Stop looking around. Nobody's there.

Shut up!

Hello!

Hello?

Roll him over.

It's him.

Toss him in our car.

Hey!

BIJU MENON

What the hell is this?

BIJU MENON AS AVARACHAN

Dad, why can't you just stick to doing your room service job?

Why go looking for trouble with some foreigner?

This isn't like beating up those KSEB workers.

Interpol is on his tail!

I don't know anybody named Paul.

Dear,

he honestly seemed like a gem of a person.

He asked for a small favour, so I just helped him out.

"A gem of a person!"

You'd be locked up in a cell

if not for the party workers.

Yeah, right!

Thrilled that you lost your job?

Did you find me this job?

Don't you have anything to say?

Jaison, that's enough.

Dad, go wash up.

Jaimon, go have dinner.

Okay.

It's the same old fight between father and sons every time.

Jaison, can you keep quiet for just once?

You're the one enabling all his reckless nonsense.

Why are you snapping at him?

Go cradle him like a baby then!

Do whatever the hell you want!

Hey, Jaimon. What are you doing here?

My bike broke down, Chechi. So I thought I'd catch the bus.

Your bike always seems to break down whenever you reach this exact spot.

- Beats me why, Chechi. - Let's go.

- There she goes! - Aren't you getting on?

This hag won't give me a break!

Jaimon, listen. Hold this for a second.

I'm going to go talk to Ann Mary.

What?

"Would you like to be the mother of my children?"

How does that sound?

That didn't land?

Damn it!

What else am I supposed to say?

Jaimon chetta,

this is Aneeta, from Kaloor Bismi.

Can we meet up if you're free this evening?

- I'll be right back! - Jaimon! I have more lines to try.

"My name is Edwin. Will you make me the 'admin' of your kids?"

Now that is awesome!

- It works? - Just needs a little practice.

Really?

Will it actually work?

Say it...

Say it, man!

Just keep practising it for a bit.

- Eh? - I'll be right back.

Um... Chetta.

- Yeah? - When you hear what I have to say...

Just don't get too excited.

Mmm.

You've been hanging around here a lot,

asking about TV prices and all that.

The thing is,

I'm getting marriage proposals at home.

Oh no.

Two or three guys came to meet me.

But somehow... nobody's clicking for me.

So as I thought it through...

I realised that you are...

better than them.

You're decent.

Also, when the two of us happen to walk side by side...

people won't look at us and go, "Eww."

- Right? - No.

So here is what you'll do.

Talk to your family first,

then come to my house and propose formally.

- If my parents are okay with it... - I'm okay.

It will be okay.

Not your 'okay'.

My family's okay.

- Got it? - Mmm... Continue, continue.

I'm talking to you, right?

- Eh? - Why is she so bothered about it?

- Hey? - What now?

Want to grab some tea?

This canteen is only for the staff.

Then how about a falooda outside?

Nah. Just leave, Chetta.

Go on.

- Shall I go? - Mmm...

- Okay, then. - Mmm.

- Hey? - Yeah?

Don't go thinking this is love or anything, okay?

Okay.

Look at these guys.

Look at the effort they put in.

It's pure adrenaline!

For the first two months!

Then they won't even show their faces here.

That's marriage for you.

Look, it's not as easy as it looks.

Do you really want to do this?

Isn't that what everyone says?

And has anyone ever listened?

Jaison, this is 'Cosmic Law, '

- Nobody can escape it. - Chetta, will you please shut up?

Hey,

can you talk to Dad?

If you want, Keerthy and I can both come along.

But you know how Dad is.

Hey, what about your father's brother? Stanislavski?

Why don't you just take him along with you?

And trigger Avarachan's ego?

- That definitely won't work. - Master, the treadmill isn't working.

Oh, they broke that too?

- Should I just sell everything off? - Hey!

Can you talk to him?

Huh?

Dad?

They've asked us to come on the 26th.

We can leave by ten in the morning, right?

26th?

I'm busy on the 26th.

Hmm... Just perfect!

What are you busy with?

How can we go without you?

Did I visit your house before you stepped into ours?

Come on, Dad!

Open it!

Even so, shouldn't we follow standard traditions?

Right! As if this family runs on traditions!

Sometimes, those boys think... they are my father.

They've got such big mouths.

Let them go ask for her hand.

Forget that. Do you want plantain or potato in the curry?

You're in such a grumpy mood today.

What's wrong with my mood?

Dad? Don't put the plantains in. Potatoes will do.

Potatoes suit those potato-heads best anyway!

- Wonderful! - He meant you.

Our father is from Chellanam.

Mom's house is nearby, in Moolankuzhi.

She was Padasery George's daughter.

Ah, Molly Chechi!

I know her! She studied with my sister, Valsa.

Didn't you recognise them?

They had a watch shop in Moolankuzhi.

- George Chettan. - Right, I remember.

How long has it been since your mother passed away?

She passed when he was just five.

Where is your father?

- Right. Where is he? - Dad...

Dad is playing in a brass band for the Arthunkal church festival.

He really meant to come.

Oh! Is your dad still running around playing with kids?

No, he's actually the bandmaster.

Ah, then his presence is required.

My brother-in-law, Varghese here is a master too.

Master of what?

A driving school master.

Simran Driving School, Thoppumpady.

Oh!

Around here, people only know him as 'Simran' Varghese.

Oh, I see...

He's a big deal!

Right, brother-in-law?

On the Aluva-Fort Kochi route...

You haven't eaten anything. Have some, dear.

So, how should we proceed now?

Well... since they already know each other...

We'll think it over and get back to you.

Have some of this, dear.

Have it!

Ah, yes. We currently have a 30 to 50% Christmas discount.

Are you looking for a single or a double-door fridge, sir?

This one is a very popular model.

Feel free to look around. Excuse me for a second.

Hey, he's here. I'll be right back.

Can you handle them for me?

- Aneeta... - Mmm?

- Tell me. - What else is there to say?

I already told you over the phone.

My parents just aren't interested.

I know that's not the real reason.

Tell me the truth.

- Grandpa, phone! - Who is it?

It's Varghese Uncle.

- Did you close up the shop? - Yeah.

Chacko chetta, have you been drinking?

No, I haven't touched a drop lately.

I'm just babysitting Shiya's kid.

- Do you know why I called? - Why?

A family from Chellanam came to see Aneeta today.

Hey, hold on a moment.

- Shiya! - Yes, dad?

- Take the baby, will you? - Ah.

From Chellanam?

Who from Chellanam?

His mother's family is from here in Moolankuzhi.

We know them.

- Oh? - His name is Jaimon.

He works at the Shipyard.

- Really? - His father's name is Avarachan.

Oh, I know them very well.

The boy is a solid kid.

He's got a steady job.

But his father, Avarachan...

Please don't mind me saying this!

- That man isn't exactly a good guy. - Why?

I heard he was caught in a marijuana raid recently.

I am not one to gossip, but...

If you marry your girl off to that family,

and the groom's father gets high and misbehaves with her...

don't blame me for it.

Who am I supposed to talk to?

What am I supposed to say?

What's the point of saying anything?

He's made our lives hell since childhood.

He only ever cares about himself.

We don't need his help.

We don't even need his support.

Can't he just stop ruining things for us?

Why wouldn't they? People don't talk about normal fathers like this.

- Just shut up, will you? - Do you know what they said?

That if I bring a wife home, he'd probably make a move on her.

Jaimon, stop it.

Do you realise you're talking about your own father?

Well, does he even behave the way a father should?

Keerthy, do you know?

He never even bought us school uniforms.

We bought everyday clothes using the money Uncle gave us on vacations.

He's right. Sometimes when he screams at me,

I honestly wonder... are we even his kids?

- Oh God! - Dad?

Talking trash, you son of a gun?!

Say whatever you want about me...

But utter one word against your dead mother...

I'll chop you up and throw you in the lake!

Bloody pigs!

Hey, get some sleep.

Hey,

do you think this doesn't upset me?

But think about it.

If someone talked trash like that about me, wouldn't you hit them?

That's all he did. Just look at it that way.

Come on. Come to bed.

Avarachan, see you!

What's with all these donations?

First for the cemetery,

then for the festival...

They're going to bleed us dry!

Hey!

You sabotaged my son's marriage, didn't you?

What did I even do?

I only told them the truth.

I still have the sense to recognise my own family, you absolute swine!

- What's the problem, Avarachan? - Shut your mouth!

Let me explain what happened.

You prick!

You just toyed with my son's life.

To ask for a girl from our family,

what dignity do you people even have?

Ah!

Dignity, huh?

So that's your problem, Mr. Dignified?

- Avarachan! - Oh, god!

Uncle...

Dad's not picking up.

He'll be here.

Quit wasting time and start packing.

I already called Eliyamma

to say her darling little brother is coming.

If Sudhish isn't available, forget it!

What about Aneesh?

Him neither?

There's an Innova Crysta in Cherthala.

Shall I go get it?

What do you say?

Just find whatever ride is close by!

- Even an auto will do! - Close by?

Dude, cancel the Innova.

Here, pack some water.

Put that medicine in this bag.

Okay.

- Jaimon? - Yeah?

- Did you find another ride? - No.

Then go find one!

That guy is totally useless.

What about 'Gossip' Binu? Call him. He's safe.

I mean...

No one can find out about this, that's why!

Why else would I be busting my tail like this?

You idiot... That four-wheeler you're talking about is a minivan!

That's no auto! Autos have three wheels!

Forget it.

Hold on a second.

Look, he is here.

Jaimon, quit running around in circles and get moving!

Avarachan, get ready to leave. Right now.

- Where to? - To Eliyamma's in Aanakampoyil.

I'm not going anywhere.

Don't give me any of that crap now!

That boy is in the ICU!

If anything happens to him, all hell will break loose here.

Don't you know his father Seban?

The man is an absolute maniac!

He slashed a cop during the temple feast!

If that boy dies... he'll burn this house down!

I'm not scared of anyone.

This isn't about you!

I'm worried about this pregnant girl here.

Dad,

I have packed your bag.

Jaison and I are heading to my place.

Don't delay.

Hurry up, Dad.

Go on.

Where'd you find him?

At the Eramalloor Bar.

- By himself? - With a few others.

Jaimon, pull the car out.

- We're leaving. - Call once you get there, dear.

Hey, I found an auto!

It'll be 8,300 rupees.

What? 8,300?!

Aren't you going all the way to Kozhikode?

Good Lord... We meant just till Vyttila Hub!

Cancel the auto.

I'll go in his car.

- So you don't need it? - No!

Huh?

Mmm...

Aren't you coming?

This is 500 rupees worth of beef!

How can I just leave it here?

- How much? - Eli!

Come on in.

What's up!

Come.

My dear sweet Eli, looking so plump and glowing...

I've been waiting for you!

Bashing the heads of kids the age of your grandkids?

What the--

That was just... brilliant!

Come on in...

Only you can handle him.

- So, Eliyammachi, how've you been? - Doing well, dear.

- How's the farming? - Yeah...

A little bit here and there.

- Where is he? Sushant Singh? - Out in the yard.

How's that boy doing?

Too early to tell.

He's still in the ICU.

Oh Lord, what do I even say?

I thought marriage would straighten him out.

It didn't.

Then I thought having kids would.

Now he has grandkids on the way,

and he hasn't changed a bit!

Eliyamma, this is burnt!

That's that good-for-nothing's work.

Charred two whole kilos of chicken!

- Who did? - Neena's eldest, Jithu.

- Is he even old enough to cook? - Right...

He asked how many whistles in the cooker for black coffee!

He's just a boy, right?

Good grief!

Ah, that must be him. Jithu!

He got suspended from college, so now he's keeping me company.

Hey Jithu, come here!

Hi, Uncle.

Good Lord!

You're all grown up... and even your hair has blossomed!

Hair... Err...

I thought you were still tiny, so I brought you a gift.

Wait, take this.

Wonder what it is.

I bought it thinking he was still a kid.

- Oh, brilliant. - Here.

Never mind.

His hair may have turned grey, but he's still a big baby.

It used to play drums when I bought it.

Alright, stop messing with it. Just give it to him.

- Go and get it. - Okay.

Here you go.

Wow... A dead monkey.

Thanks, Uncle.

Alright. The awards ceremony is over, right?

Go scrub that burnt pan.

- On it. - Wait, one more thing!

Aren't we done?

Nope!

The main event is next!

I need my Eliyamma's verdict!

Here.

- Vindaloo! - Yep.

- Well? - It's delicious.

Cooked it just to hear you say that.

Grandma, is the Vindaloo well done?

Get lost! Go scrub that pot!

- Scram! - Whoa!

Bad vibes!

Hello?

Hello?

- Hello! - When did you get there?

Why couldn't I reach you?

There's no signal inside the house.

We reached around eight-thirty.

Okay. Listen...

The boy's fine. They haven't pressed charges.

They might be plotting payback, though.

Let their tempers cool off for a bit.

Give it a few days.

Things are quiet in Chellanam for now.

Right, okay.

Where is that troublemaker? Our Dad?

He just finished lunch and stepped outside.

Alright then.

Eliyammachi, where is Dad?

- No idea! He must be around somewhere. - I'll call you back.

Dad!

Dad?!

CONGRATULATIONS TO JOHNY PARAKKAL FOR OBTAINING LICENSE TO SHOOT WILD BOARS

You all know why we're gathered here today.

Someone from our own town has earned a license to hunt wild boar.

My younger brother, Johnny!

Johnny has shown us we no longer need

empanelled shooters from Thiruvambady or Kolenchery!

Whenever I look at Johnny, what comes to mind...

is a wild boar!

I don't mean that as a joke.

Because...

back when we used to walk together

and spotted a wild boar, I could see that burning urge in him to shoot it.

I knew right then...

Uncle, got the booze.

Just a quarter bottle?

Where are we drinking?

Who says we don't have a spot? Come on.

Did you grab glasses?

Damn, forgot the glasses.

What do you want to munch on?

I'm good.

Grab whatever you like.

Why would I need any? I don't drink.

- You don't drink? - No.

Liar!

Lying to my face?

Just sometimes, with friends.

Then don't treat me like an uncle. Treat me like a friend!

- Right. - Got it?

So what's it gonna be, buddy? Soda or water?

Let's go.

Yes, friends! That living legend is none other than our very own hero!

Wow! Nice aunty!

That's enough. She can ride the rest alone.

- Hey, Jithu... Jithu? - Yeah?

Can you give me a quick lift home?

Please get down.

- Come on, drop me home fast. - Uncle?

- Don't call me that! - Make some space.

- Who's this? - Uncle! Didn't you hear him?

- This is your uncle?! - Who is he?

Who are you?

JATHIKKA FARM STAY

I've got a weapon here! Stay back!

- Mom? - Out of the way!

Move! I said move!

Ready... One... Two...

- Hey, hey, HEY! - THREE!

That's my dad's car! Touch it and I'll break your legs!

- Won't let us do anything? - Get lost, you!

I told you a thousand times to scrap that piece of junk!

Happy now?

Shut up!

Ma'am, easy... Easy.

Cool! Relax! Relax!

Dude, a kid's trapped inside my car!

Any way to get her out?

Brother, just a second.

Don't be scared, sweetie. Give me a smile!

Smile! There you go!

Suresh, find someone to help!

Grandma, hand me that umbrella!

- Wonderful. - My umbrella!

No! My uncle gave me that umbrella!

My uncle will buy you another one.

Oh Lord, my umbrella!

Screw your umbrella!

Dear...

Don't be scared, sweetie.

That went kaput too!

See that? What did you just say?

- There's nobody here! - Clap for him!

- Did it open? - Here's what's left of your umbrella!

What a close call! Who got it open?

It's him.

Thank you!

Is that all?

We need to take Dad home. It's urgent.

Okay, carry on.

Aren't you coming boar hunting with us?

- Where to? - Let's go to Bismi.

- Hello? - Hello!

Didn't I say I wasn't interested?

Why did you come looking for me at the shop?

Listen, I need to talk to you.

Can we meet in person?

- Just ten minutes. - Can you come to Fort Kochi?

Yeah. Can you send the location? I'll come.

Okay.

Okay.

Just 400 meters from the Kandakkadavu Cemetery!

Only 50 kilometers from the airport!

Nestled right between scenic Pokkali fields and shrimp farms!

Here it is...

No, they told me to report tomorrow.

Then go report!

Uncle and I went over to Chacko's,

talked it through, and sorted things out.

They have no issue with us.

Still, I don't really buy what they said about Dad.

Chacko's younger son is a real menace.

Wait, isn't he leaving for the Middle East next month?

- Yeah? - Yeah!

In that case, don't bring Dad back just yet.

That's smarter.

Not like there's anything for him to do here anyway.

Oh, he's doing plenty over there!

Brilliant!

What booze can we get for 130 bucks?

Should we ask ChatGPT?

Chacha-PT? Who's that loser?

It's an app!

Brother, this whole load is only worth five grand!

Look, bring five grand to the junction!

Have a heart, man!

Don't you know them? Talk some sense into them!

What can I do?

You won't find a single soul in this godforsaken place.

- Start the bike! - Hey, listen!

Have some decency in life!

And some work ethics!

Rascals!

Sir?

Are you with the police?

No. Why?

You just look like... ex-military, that's why.

That's just the 'Military' rum talking...

Never mind that.

Sir, I'm the site engineer.

Just to unload a few steel rods, they're demanding five grand!

Five thousand?

Yeah! The entire load barely costs that much!

How much can you pay?

Maybe three thousand.

Ouch.

Thirty-five hundred max! I'll chip in 500 from my pocket.

Deal!

- You? - Yep!

- Shinto! Jithu, get over here! - Yeah?

Come on, move it!

- We have to load it at the back, right? - Yeah.

You're a rockstar! A force of nature!

- Shut up and move it! - Coming...

What? You want mehendi too?

Nope.

Come sit.

Hey...

Why should I pay for my father's mistakes?

Your father isn't the problem.

Then what is?

Didn't I tell you before?

I'm not doing anything without my family's approval.

So you don't have a say of your own?

- Hey? - How's it coming along?

- Aren't you hungry, dear? - Mmm...

Almost done? Shall I feed her?

Go ahead, Aunty. This'll take a while.

Here, eat.

- What's your name, dear? - Jaimon.

- He's my friend. - Oh, is he?

- Did you eat? - Not yet. Soon.

We'll eat together once this is done.

Oh, you two catch up, then.

Mom, can I have some beef?

Sereena? Come here a second.

Be right back.

I'll give it to you when I'm back.

- Look after her, okay? - Will do, Aunty.

- Mom, don't go! I'm starving... - Right back! Just one minute...

Go ahead, eat.

Thanks, bro.

Hey, could you talk to her?

About what?

It's life or death for me.

Put in a good word. Help me out.

What is this, a family court?

Bro, give me that big chunk...

- Can I ask you something? - Mmm?

I'm asking because I genuinely don't get it.

What do you see in me?

Do you even know anything about me?

Do you know what I like?

Forget that...

Do you even know my hobbies?

Hobbies?

Enlighten me.

What are your hobbies?

I listen to everyone's sob stories...

and then broadcast them to the whole neighborhood.

Nice.

That's a great hobby.

- I like it. - Thanks.

- Just "thanks"? Hey? - Mmm?

You have nothing to say?

Well... Let me think about it.

Hey?

You're welcome.

Go on, get moving.

- Hello? - Hey!

Jaimon, aren't you up yet?

No, Aunty. Just waking up.

- Sure, sleep your life away! - Huh?

The police took your dad and Jithu away!

What?!

- And? - The police didn't say a thing.

I'm at Kuriyachan's place now.

He's making a few calls.

- We'll come right over. - Okay.

- Jaison! - What?

We've got a situation.

What is it?

"I'm letting you go."

Right?

Now what were you saying?

He's my wife's brother's aunt's son--

Cut the family tree!

- Get to the point. - But Madam...

If I don't explain how we're related,

you won't understand what happened!

Fine, go on!

He's my wife's brother's maternal aunt's son.

Sir! Sir!

- That's not how it is. - Huh?

I'm his wife's brother's paternal aunt's son.

Who are you calling "Sir"?

Keep your mouth shut!

Hey,

isn't Sarala Aunty Hari's maternal aunt?

- Paternal aunt! - Huh?

- Chechi, she's his paternal aunt! - Oh, really?

Madam,

just a minor correction.

He's my wife's brother's paternal aunt's son.

He used to transport tapioca from Kodenchery to Mangalore.

Then one day, the cops caught him smuggling Hans gutka in the truck!

Lord, have mercy!

You have a criminal record too?

Not here, Chechi! That was in Sullia.

Who the hell is your "Chechi"?

Greetings.

Huh?

Madam...

What's the issue here?

Well,

this engineer took two days off to go home,

leaving this guy in charge of the warehouse.

The moment the coast was clear, he stole 1.5 lakhs worth of steel rods--

Chechi, I took it thinking it was just useless scrap!

He tried to sell the stolen steel in Mananthavady.

Scumbag!

The shopkeeper got suspicious and tipped us off.

Don't paint me as a thief, Chechi!

Wait, what about Avarachan?

He's an accomplice!

These guys loaded the steel onto the truck when nobody was watching.

Officer, we only helped because he said he was the engineer!

- Who said that? - An engineer?!

Chechi, he's totally lying!

- Me? An engineer? - Madam...

I know Avarachan.

He probably just got dragged into this by hanging around these kids.

He's a harmless guy.

Oh really?! This harmless guy...

took the sale money, dragged the kids to the riverbank, and guzzled moonshine!

What?

What does steel have to do with moonshine?

Quiet, you!

What can we do now?

Let the Inspector get here. We'll talk after that.

Chechi... what about me?

Oh, I've got something special waiting just for you!

No, please... I'm observing a holy fast--

Didn't I tell you not to come, son?

Right, fine!

With a father like this,

his family will never have peace at home.

Are you here to issue me a character certificate?

Don't even start on your track record, Dad!

We're living in constant fear back home!

Drop it, Jaison.

Aunty, I am about to have a child.

I'm terrified I won't even live to see my baby,

thanks to this man's antics.

Shut your trap and get lost!

What kind of a father are you?

Men your age live peacefully with their kids and grandkids!

Not you! You just want to roam free like an unhinged bull!

Am I doing it on your dime, you insolent brat?

Don't test me, Dad! I'll forget who you are!

Hey!

You gonna hit me?

Hit me, then!

- Come on, hit me! - Avarachan, stop it!

- Hit me! Do it! - He's just a kid!

Come at me!

- What happened? - Oh no!

Eliyammachi! Eliyammachi!

Hold her, Dad!

Eliyammachi, look at me.

- What happened? - Huh?

She just collapsed.

- Eliyammachi? - Who's this?

Manju Chechi, our neighbour.

Doctor, is she alright?

Eliyammachi...

- Open your eyes. - Doctor, is it serious?

Kuriyachan, will you tell him to shut up?

She's not a doctor!

She's Mathaichan's home nurse.

- Oh! - Did she bump her head?

- No, she just slightly-- - Right.

Sushanth, get some rice gruel water.

- Her BP went down. - Okay.

- Add a pinch of salt. - On it!

- How about brandy with black pepper? - Kuriyachan!

- Shut up! - Kuriyachan!

- We must take her to hospital. Lift her. - Yeah.

Grab her!

Dad, I was just watching!

Uncle forced me to do it.

Don't give me your excuses!

I bought your ticket. Get on the next train home!

- Dad, I swear I won't cause trouble! - Always ruining my peace of mind!

- Dad... - Enough of your studying and partying!

- Get on that train! Right now! - Please!

Cut out your nonsense! Always up to shady schemes!

Who told you all this?

Did you see him steal?

Don't you have anything better to do, Omana?

You're the fifteenth person poking around since morning!

I've lived here for forty years.

Never once have I faced such humiliation!

How are you feeling, Eliyammachi?

- I'm fine now, son. - Good.

Jaison!

Take your hand off me.

Avaran, my boy...

A devil has possessed you.

A devil?

- Which devil? - Hush!

Otherwise, none of this would happen.

Moonshine, toddy, weed,

theft... Now only murder is left!

Come over here.

Mm.

If your Eliyammachi asks for something, will you do it?

- Just tell me, Sister. - Promise me?

- Yes, I promise. - Good!

Father Chalissery from Maikkavu Church is currently in Madikeri.

Chalissery?

Just go and spend a few days with Father.

All the problems will vanish.

What problem does he have?

The problem isn't his, it's yours!

- Oh, really? - Even Kuriyachan knows him.

Err...

It's a wise decision.

- Do I really have to, Sister? - Yes!

This can't go on, Dad.

Just go and get sorted out.

Oh, wonderful!

So brewing a couple of drinks is a crime now?

When Jesus made wine, nobody had an issue!

And you know damn well what happened to Jesus in the end!

Oh no!

Trapped!

My dear children...

The very first step toward change

is realising that you need to change.

Thanking the Almighty

for granting you that calling, that awakening within,

I welcome you all with an open heart.

Yes? What is it?

I have come to attend

Father Chalissery's class.

- I am Father Chalissery. - Oh, really?

Why are you late?

- Well, Father... I overslept. - I see.

- Did you finish registration? - Oh absolutely.

I had wrapped that up earlier.

- Then take a seat. - Right.

Wait, Father... chair?

Chair?

There are no chairs.

I know there's no chair, you dimwit!

Pretend there is one and sit down!

You son of a gun!

Obey me and stay disciplined for twenty-five days,

and it'll do you good, you rascals!

And listen...

If you try acting smart with me,

you'll find out who Joseph Chalissery really is!

Got that, you blockheads?

- Did you read them the time-table? - Not yet, Father.

Then do it now.

At 3:50 AM,

wake-up call.

Tea at 4:00 AM.

From 4:15 to 5:15, silent prayer.

From 5:30 to 6:30,

exercise!

Hey kitty... Come here, girl.

Come here, sweetheart.

Eat up, my little girl. Eat.

Eat up...

That's it, eat your fill.

- Hey! Hey, you! - Yeah?

Pavithran...

- Eat up, girl. - Wonderful!

Finished? Is this your full-time job now?

This isn't your front porch to feed every stray dog and cat!

Didn't I tell you just yesterday not to do this?

Well, yes, but...

It's just a poor, innocent creature.

So what?

- I just really love animals. - You love them?

Right! It's not like you gave birth to the thing,

to fuss over it so much!

- Are you going to clean this up? - If you give me a broom, sir,

I'll sweep it clean.

What's the problem here

- Well, this cat here... - Didn't I tell you a hundred times

not to feed cats here?

And yet you keep doing it!

Hey, didn't he say he'd clean it up?

Mind your own business!

Get lost, cat! Shoo!

Go on! Get out of here!

These freeloaders have got too much attitude!

Pampering cats all day!

Let him rant.

- Hand it over. - No, no...

It's fine.

If my boys were here,

they would've smashed his face right into that wall!

When I left, my wife asked me

if this was really necessary.

Still, I came here because I wanted to change.

It's only for a few days.

Just get some sleep.

Oh no!

Hey!

It's broad daylight!

Everyone has left!

Come on!

Hey!

Hey!

Hey... Hey?

- Pavithran! - Pavithran!

Should we take him to hospital?

Help me lift him. Grab him!

Come on!

Addiction

is man's greatest folly.

And alcohol? The devil's piss!

- Father? - Yes?

- Pavithran's relative is here. - Oh!

So it'd be helpful if Avarachan could come there.

- Alright. - Come on.

Go ahead.

Are the rites done?

A little water, please...

Are the last rites over?

How are things back home?

What home?

The man had no home and no kin.

Not a single soul even bothered to show up.

He has two sons.

Thought they'd at least come.

Nobody came.

Then again, why would they? He brought it upon himself.

His wife walked out years ago.

Can't really blame them either.

See, a father needs to be good.

It all starts with the father.

A family is only ever as good as the father himself.

In the end...

the locals had to pool money

just to get him cremated.

Such a pitiful end to a life.

Well...

I should get going.

When he left home,

he swore he'd quit drinking before he ever came back.

So much for that promise.

Hey!

Aren't you going to class?

- I'll go. - What did you say?

You think things around here run on your whim?

Get out!

Hey! Are you deaf?

I'm talking to you!

You son of a gun!

Run your mouth again and I'll smash your face in!

You hear me?

Pick a fight and storm off if you want to!

It's not like anyone's waiting with open arms at home!

If you attend the classes properly, you can go home.

Otherwise, you'll end up just like Pavithran!

He's been tormenting us since we were kids.

He only ever cares about himself.

With a father like this,

his family will never have peace at home.

He has two sons.

Thought they'd at least come.

Nobody came.

Men your age live peacefully with their kids and grandkids.

It's not like anyone's waiting with open arms at home!

The locals had to pool money just to get him cremated.

Hold tight!

Come on, lift it up!

Come on!

Tie it up!

The Priest seems to be an Argentina fan.

Yeah, totally!

Hello!

- Jaison, my man! - Hey!

Isn't your dad coming for the church festival?

Where the hell did you hide him?

Hey! Bring him out!

I'll bring him down right on your chest, you prick!

Yeah? Bring him on, then!

Whoa! Easy, Jaison! Cool it!

If you've got the guts, bring your old man out!

Just get lost, man!

Come on!

Just walk away, man!

Sit here, Dad. I'll be right back.

What happened with that girl?

Which girl?

The one you went to see.

- Aneeta? - Yeah.

She's ready to elope.

No need for that.

Once I'm back, we'll go talk to them properly.

Back where?

You needn't come back to Chellanam yet, Dad.

What?

The church festival is coming up.

Those guys will snap the second they see you.

Jaison had a clash with them just the other day.

So Jaison wants you to stay away for two more weeks.

To hell with him!

Look, I won't cause any scene.

Besides, Keerthi's delivery is due any day, right?

Her delivery will happen smoothly, Dad.

If anything goes wrong, no one will be there to back you up.

It's just two weeks.

Stay put at Aunt's place.

Here, peel these!

How much?

Keep the change.

So, how was your retreat?

It went great!

- Mm. - Keep that inside.

Oh, wonderful!

Devotional channels all morning, and soaps all night!

I'm done with my prayers, boy!

Where's that broomstick-head?

He vanished.

His mom keeps calling,

and no one has a clue.

What's up, man?

- Exhausted? - Nah...

Just dreading having to wake up and head back tomorrow.

Leave after a couple of days.

No way, got to report for work.

I'll get fired.

- Sushant bhai! How are you? - All good.

Hey! Don't jump all over him!

Go take a shower first!

- Eliyamma... - What?

I've made up my mind.

I've quit drinking.

Hmph!

What do you think?

What's it to me?

If you quit, good for you.

- I'm going to sleep. - Alright.

Good night.

- Sushant bhai... - Yeah?

This is why--

This is why

no one here ever quits booze.

- Get it? - Yeah.

- Eat up. - Okay.

Do you want some?

No.

Avaran Chetta!

Remember me?

Bincy!

Yes. What brings you here?

I came looking for fresh fish.

Didn't buy any?

From these iced ones?

What's this? Carrying toys around?

I'm gonna be a grandpa!

Really? Then you owe us a treat!

Sure, big treats!

- Heading home? - Yeah.

Come on then, let's go together.

Wait, give me five minutes. Need to pop into the bank.

- Is that so? - Yeah.

Take seven minutes.

Seven? Make it seven and a half.

Didn't see Johnny or Kurian?

Nope.

- Alright, I'll be back in a flash. - Sure.

Bincy... just two minutes!

I don't want to hear it, Ani. Move aside!

Bincy... it won't take more than two minutes!

Please!

What the hell is your problem?

Bincy...

I can't survive without you, Bincy!

I had a dream last night.

The two of us in Ooty...

out boating.

Our kids right behind us!

You know, those paddle boats? The ones you pedal?

- In that... - Whose kids?!

Ani, I already told you it's never happening!

Out of my way!

- Back off, Ani! - Bincy... just one thing!

Can I say just one thing?

If ever in your life...

If at any point in life...

you feel completely alone...

just remember...

this Ani...

will always be waiting for you.

I'll never hit such a pathetic low, Ani.

Don't say that, Bincy!

Bincy...

Can I touch you just once?

- Ani, get away! - Just one touch, please!

- Back off! Get off me! - Bincy, please!

I'll beg at your feet! Don't humiliate me!

Move!

- Ani! People are watching! - Please!

- It's me, your Ani! - I said move!

- Sweetheart, please! - Let go of me!

Get lost!

Dog!

Dog?

Jesus!

- Do you still have rehearsals there? - You bet!

- At least three days-- - Avaran Chetta, let's go!

- What happened? - Come on.

Back home in Chellanam, we rehearse

at least two days a week.

That's how you build rhythm!

Let's go!

Bincy!

Bincy!

Sweetheart!

Who do you think you're fooling?

Huh?

Making big declarations to me and to your sons,

and then sneaking a drink out here?

Quit if you want to.

Otherwise, sit inside and drink!

A snake's gonna bite you out here!

Really?

Eliyamma...

I gave in to the craving and had a couple.

For at least one week,

I really hoped you'd hold out, Avaran.

"Craving", my foot!

What's eating you up so much?

Do folks drink only when they're in trouble?

People drink when they hurt, too.

Hurt from what?

I don't know if you'll get it, Eliyamma.

Ever since she left this world,

I've carried this deep grief,

and so much rage.

Back then, Jaison and Jaimon were just kids, right?

They'd run off to school.

They'd go play with their friends.

What was I supposed to do?

A man needs some company, right?

So I'd have a few drinks.

It made it feel like someone was there.

It gave me some comfort.

Just a tiny spark of joy.

Hah!

Tell you what...

why don't you marry that bottle

and take it to bed with you?

"Needs company," my foot!

Ridiculous!

- Eliyamma... - What?

When it comes to being a father...

am I a complete failure?

Do you want the truth or a lie?

Tell me the lie, Eliyamma.

You're a fantastic father!

And compared to our dead old man...

you are miles ahead.

He was an utter scumbag!

Avaran,

my dear boy...

don't you dare end up like him!

Aunty! Phone!

- Aunty! - Coming!

Hey, Avarachan!

Keerthi just had her baby!

It's a boy!

Really?!

- He barely has any hair. - He's fast asleep.

- Someone's calling me. - Yeah.

Hey, Dad.

Hey! How are Keerthi and the baby?

Her mother's holding him right now.

They'll move Keerthi to the room by tomorrow morning.

Hey!

Hello?

- Who's that? - It's Dad.

- Tell him I'm here too. - Yeah, I will.

Hello...

Hey, are you busy?

No, everyone's just gathered here, that's all.

So... can I come over then?

Did you eat anything, Dad?

I--

Didn't Jaimon explain everything?

Just hold on for one week, Dad.

Have your meals on time.

I will.

- Hey... - Yeah?

Buy sweets for everyone there.

Sure.

Is Uncle around?

Yeah.

Get him a quarter bottle.

- Okay, okay. - Yeah.

Hey, Avarachan!

Get over here!

Here.

I'm leaving.

Where do you think you're going?

To Chellanam.

Walk out that door and I'll break your legs!

Oh, really?!

Are you my sister or Father Chalissery's sister?

Say your prayers, eat your food, and go to bed!

Look who wants to go to Chellanam!

- Go to sleep, man! - Hey, look at this.

Thief!

Stop right there!

Thief!

Thief!

Nothing to worry about.

Just a hairline fracture.

That's all.

No chasing thieves for a while, alright?

I've written a prescription.

- Get those medicines. - Okay.

Let it heal properly.

Has he started coming around again?

- Yeah. - God, he's such a relentless pain!

Who is?

The man you chased last night wasn't a thief.

- Then who? - Her ex-husband, Ani.

Then why sneak in like a thief?

He's totally nuts!

I got a divorce because I couldn't take it anymore.

He hadn't bothered me in a while.

Now he shows up out of nowhere, demanding to remarry!

What?!

Says he's madly in love with me!

Then why not just remarry him?

Hey!

Look here.

That maniac burned her with a hot iron!

Why does he sneak in at night like this?

For no reason. Just to watch me.

He stands by the window and stares for ten minutes.

If I latch the window shut,

he steals my sandals off the porch.

After losing three pairs, I started keeping them inside.

So then he started coming over and pissing on my porch!

Now I'm forced to sleep with the windows wide open!

At least that satisfies his sick urge.

Can't you report him to the police?

I've tried everything, Avaran Chetta.

You know Mathayichan, right?

He sat him down and warned him a few times.

Didn't change a thing.

Mathayichan's sister-in-law has a son,

Paulose sir. He's in the force.

Paulose sir dragged him to the station and beat him black and blue.

Still no use.

Come on, let's go.

Is he jobless or what?

He conned her into marriage

claiming to be a collection manager at the Cadbury's cocoa plant in Thamarassery.

He was actually just a security guard.

Two months into marriage, he parked himself at home.

Quit his job, too.

Then it was just drinking and domestic abuse.

He had two or three police cases against him.

Right after the divorce, he went to jail for one of them.

Doesn't he have any family?

He had a mother who was even more rotten than him.

She's dead now.

He's totally unhinged.

He's going to take me down with him, Avaran Chetta.

Where on earth are you, Jaimon?

You know that nursing station?

- Walk straight from there. - Which nurses?

Just ask them for room 548.

- Where are you? - Spotted you!

Walk backwards.

Right here!

Right.

Furious, huh?

Where's the baby?

He had mild jaundice, so they took him to the NICU.

Here...

- Aneeta, that's my mom. - Okay.

Have a seat, dear.

- Did you eat? - Yes, I did.

What did they say when you told your family?

It's a mess.

They're lining up suitors three times a day!

I'm ready to elope anytime.

Your relatives are already furious with us.

That Jackson picked a fight with me on the day of the festival.

Dad said he'll come and speak to them.

I don't think I can hold out until then, Chechi.

True. It'll take time for Dad to come.

Aunt said she won't let him leave until his arm heals.

Don't worry, dear. I'll come talk to your folks.

Okay.

Come in!

Did you submit the birth certificate form?

Not yet. Can I fill it out and hand it in this evening?

Sure, just submit it before 6 PM.

Why the long face?

Why didn't you come downstairs to welcome me?

- Father... - Hey, Baby.

- Drop that over there! - Easy, Eliyammachi!

- She's pissed off! - Zip it!

Didn't I tell you wild boars would raid this place?

But then he's either at his brother-in-law's house-warming,

or his aunt is having a baby!

How many boars do you expect Johnny to hunt down alone?

Oh, don't even get me started on his hunting record!

Right, Eliyammachi?

Seriously, have you no shame?

Shot two stray boars and struts around like some big-game hunter!

Putting up banners and throwing receptions out of his own pocket!

Eliyammachi...

we'll sort something out.

You better!

Do you realise how hard we worked on this crop?

Take this! Eat up!

Thank you!

- Baby, come on! - Coming, Johnny!

The old lady and her damn tapioca!

Eliyammachi...

- I need to rush to church. - A funeral, right?

- Yeah. - Who passed away, Father?

Avarachan, see you this evening!

Father, who died?

Your uncle from Murukkumpuzha!

Boars tore it all up again, didn't they, Eliyammachi?

- Don't even ask, Bincy. - Grab that machete.

Doing all this with that fractured arm?

Oh, it's nothing!

Hey, let's grab some tea.

I just had a tea.

- We haven't had any. Come on. - Okay.

- Let's go. - Hey, move it! Time for tea.

Why do you look so drained?

- Didn't sleep? - I slept fine.

- What's wrong? - Look at this, Eliyammachi.

I had blocked him on WhatsApp.

I found out only when my friend Jameela told me.

♪ My darling, don't leave me... ♪

♪ Never fade away from me... ♪

- What is this? - He won't let me live in peace!

- That creep! - Give me his number.

Leave it, Avaran Chetta.

It'll just invite more trouble.

I've handled worse scumbags.

- Give me the number. - Just give it to him.

Give it.

He acts up because nobody ever put him in his place.

Here.

Call him!

- Hello? - Is this Ani?

Yeah, Ani here. Who's this?

Stalk Bincy once more, and I'll kill you and dump you in the lake, you swine!

Uh... who is this?

Doesn't matter who I am!

Tail Bincy again and I'll chop you up and dump you in the lake!

Understood?

But... there isn't any lake around here, sir.

- Will a river do? - River?

The Iruvazhinji river.

That's where they dumped Moideen Ikka back then.

- You can dump me there, Chetta. - Hey, cut the crap!

Don't mess with me!

Take that status update down right now!

- Sure thing. - Good.

Chetta... just one thing.

- Just one quick thing. - What?

- Are you two in love? - What?!

Are you both in love? True love?

- Love, my foot! - Tell me, Chetta!

He... hello?

Hello?

Scumbag!

What's with him? Is he soft in the head?

That's just his act, Avaran Chetta.

If he doesn't get his way, he'll stoop to the lowest level.

- I know him inside out. - I see.

To be honest, I'm terrified of him.

That's why I endure all this and hide away here.

You know what he did once?

Right out of jail, he joined a pastor trying to build an actual ship!

- A ship? - Yeah.

Noah's Ark!

Kept saying the world was ending and a great flood was coming.

Wasted months obsessing over it!

- And then? - And it didn't even drizzle!

That's how unhinged he is.

Avarachan, aren't you coming?

Come on, let's have tea.

Kanchana Chechi!

♪ Woman born of my very bone... ♪

Hey! Ani, what the hell is this?

Think this is a toddy shop? Shut it off!

- Sorry. - Freaking nuisances!

Sorry, Uncle!

- Chetta, my bad! - Get out of here!

Dammit!

Come on!

Careful!

Quiet!

- Spotted it? - Yes.

Not bad!

Is it dead?

Yep!

You caught the exact tiny shrimp I threw back into the water!

Can only catch what's out there.

Holy Mother!

Can't even call these shrimp.

Tell me, boys.

I've come to talk about Aneeta and him.

That won't work out, son.

A family from Kandakkadavu came by and we finalised things.

How can I go back on my word?

Her betrothal is set for the second Sunday after Lent.

Wait, haven't they known each other for so long?

It's settled. I can't break my word now.

These damn mosquitoes!

Can't even sit here once it gets dark.

- They'll rot if they stay any longer. - Shall we?

The shrimp, I mean.

Should I get you tea?

Let's go.

Come on.

What's up, man?

Did you step on a nail?

What happened?

Why are you sobbing?

"I can't live without her."

That's what you're gonna say, right?

- Yeah. - Thought so.

Look, you blockhead, you've got two options.

Either forget her...

or we sneak her out of her house.

Decide what you want and tell me.

No point in crying!

Hey...

People are coming this way. Cry the rest out at home.

Move!

Come on, get up!

Hey!

Up on your feet. Come on.

Let's go.

- Lunch is over there. - What?!

Meenu!

Hey, Avarachan! Over here!

What took you so long?

There was a long queue.

This is my first time seeing Avaran Chettan in a church!

I always thought Avaran Chettan was a communist.

So? Can't communists go to church?

How long has it been since you stepped inside a church?

I don't remember.

Did you attend Jaison's wedding?

Of course, I'm his father!

That's not what I meant.

I mean, you were at the wedding,

but did you actually step inside the church?

So what brought you here today?

I couldn't miss the sweet rice!

Chetta...

I called your phone so many times.

You didn't answer.

Can I talk to you for five minutes, Chetta?

Ani...

Just go away.

I will, Bincy.

I need to talk to him.

Well...

we'll talk later.

No, Chetta.

We must talk right now. My chest feels like it's ripping apart.

I went to your house looking for you.

That boy told me you headed to church.

I just need to know one thing.

And I must know that today.

What's the matter, son?

Tell me what's wrong. We'll figure it out.

I...

I just need to know if they're in love.

Yes! We're in love.

What do you want now?

I knew it, Bincy.

I just came to make sure.

Dear, this is a church.

Just go. We'll talk later.

Yeah, on your way.

Go on.

Don't cry.

Just putting on a show!

Listen...

She must love you a lot, Chetta.

And you probably love her a hundred times more.

But this Ani loves her ten thousand--

Stop the auction and spit it out!

Who's this guy?

No idea.

If you want to marry her,

- you'll have to step over my corpse! - You filthy dog!

Avarachan!

Hey!

Listen, you shouldn't covet another man's wife!

It's a sin. The Bible says so.

Who the hell is your wife?

You are my wife!

Mother of God!

Bincy...

Gross!

I take this as an award, darling!

I consider this an award!

You scoundrel!

- Give her sandals back! - Back off, old hag!

- Father... - What's the ruckus for?

- Finally, someone with authority! - Yeah!

Father...

Father, did you know?

That guy over there and my wife, Bincy...

Bincy?

They're having an illicit affair, Father!

This guy!

Son...

Neither of them belongs to my parish.

I can only intervene if an affair happens in my parish, right?

But this churchyard belongs to my parish.

I won't tolerate any ruckus on these premises!

- Understand? - Oh!

So even you are in on it!

Watch your mouth, you prick!

- Let go, Kuriyachan! - Chetta!

Don't act like a saint, Chetta!

I've seen you riding around with her on her scooter,

sneaking into her house in the dead of night!

Avaran, smack him across the face!

He's been barking for way too long!

- Move, Father! - Don't you dare touch me!

- Don't hit him! - Don't come near me!

There he goes!

Oh my God, he's down!

He's dead!

Chetta!

- Chetta, are you okay? - Are you hurt, son?

Chetta, are you bleeding?

Sorry!

Huh?

He's risen from the dead!

I think that's Bincy's ex-husband.

You shoved me, didn't you?

- Hey! - Look, he's coming again!

No, stop! Don't, son!

Do you need to go to a hospital?

No, Father.

- Was I being dramatic? - Way too dramatic.

You still are.

- Move! - Hey, you!

- Chetta, sorry. - Don't shake hands, he's stoned!

I couldn't keep it inside anymore, so it just slipped out.

With all the crying and misery, I totally lost control.

Sorry.

Dear...

Bincy!

Bincy!

Is he on MDMA?

Dear...

Did you get your sandals back?

Chetta...

From now on, this Ani will never cross your path again!

Dammit!

Happy married life!

Right?

Avaran Chetta...

- Don't cry, dear. - Bincy is my treasure.

Take good care of her.

Get lost!

- Father, one second. - Now he's dragging the priest along!

Hey!

Ani's love...

Go on.

Will this world ever understand it, Father?

Shinto, haul him away!

Chetta, let's go.

- Can't find your phone? - My... my...

My pack of Kool pan masala!

My Kool...

- Thank you. - Welcome.

Thank you!

Th-thank you!

Please move aside.

- When's the wedding? - What?!

- Hey, Baby! - Yeah?

Isn't this your mother?

Get her out of here!

She starts gossip wherever she goes. Come on!

I suspected this all along!

Avarachan!

What is it?

Clip those nails of yours.

See this?

Don't just brood, Avaran Chettan. Have a couple of drinks.

Let's shake off this lousy mood and sort this out.

Oh, sure!

Show me one guy whose life got sorted by boozing!

Well...

fair point.

You're preaching heavy philosophy.

Will you tell the truth if I ask you something?

What?

Is there something going on between you two?

Kuriyachan, don't make me lose my temper!

So what if something is brewing?

- The problem is in hiding it! - Exactly!

You rotten idiot!

She's just a girl!

Barely thirty years old.

And I've got one married son and another itching to get hitched!

So the age gap is the problem?!

Just get lost!

Pour a little.

- Don't finish it off. - It's Bincy.

Get back soon!

What's up, Bincy?

Hello, Avaran Chetta...

Avaran Chetta... I'm so sorry.

For what?

Why are you apologising to me?

Hey, stop weeping and tell me!

I can't take this anymore.

Because of me, you got dragged into...

Bincy, cut it out!

I don't have any problem!

It's not that. I'm just sick of it.

I'm so exhausted! Totally sick of it!

Bincy...

stop crying!

Did you eat anything?

No!

I've completely lost my appetite, Avaran Chetta.

Girl...

will you listen to me for a second?

Yeah. Tell me.

If you're worrying about me, I'm totally fine here.

Go make yourself some hot tea.

I already had some.

Is that so?

Then watch TV for a bit.

Cheer yourself up.

- Avaran Chetta... - Yes?

I'm sorry.

Oh, stop it, girl! You can't let things like this scare you.

This is nothing. Bincy has vaulted over far bigger hurdles!

Got it?

Don't crack jokes when I'm miserable, Avaran Chetta.

Jokes?

Feeling a bit better now?

Yeah, a little.

Good. Watch some TV and keep your spirits up.

I'll call you later.

Okay.

- Alright. - Bye.

Look at this.

Now every punk in the village will start shooting!

- What is it? - Gun licenses issued to fifty more people!

What an absolute disaster!

Hey, look. That's Neena.

Wait, is this Neena Chechi?

It's a picture from Holy Mass.

Hey, check this out.

Did Mathayichettan kick you out?

Yeah.

The whole town says my husband is here, right?

So I moved in here!

And where is this husband of yours, Sushant?

Avarachan bhai! I'm here!

Yeah, stay right there!

What's this, cleanliness week?

Nah, a rat sneaked into the kitchen.

He's trying to trap it.

Thought I'd show her some of your old charms.

Oh, really?

Eliyammachi! Caught it!

Did you catch it?!

- Coming! - Go!

Look...

- Who's this? - Oh god, that's me!

"Oh god"?

You look really sharp!

- Really? - Yeah.

Took this back in my college days.

College?

Actually, I took it on a trip with the welding shop guys.

- Is that so? - Yeah.

Looks great anyway. Very dashing.

- You think? - Totally!

Let me snap a picture of it.

Hold this still.

Hold it up.

- Avaran Chetta... - Yeah?

Thanks.

For what?

For all of you being there for me and supporting me like this.

Just so you know,

I'm billing you for all this!

Who else is in your family, Bincy?

Who else?

You folks are all I have, Avaran Chetta.

Oh no! Is it six-thirty already?

What happened?

Time for Aunty's meds.

Can I leave?

Where are you taking that? Put it down.

Wash your hands.

Eliyammachi!

- I'm heading out! - Alright!

Lost track of time.

- See you! - Yeah.

What's up?

Nothing.

It's from someone back home.

Huh!

Avarachan!

What on earth is this place?

A safe house?

For runaways and fugitives to shack up?

Dad told us to come here!

Right, like he actually owns this house and land!

- Did you eat anything? - No.

Did you call her family?

- Called them this morning. - And?

My mom was crying.

Right.

Take her inside.

Come on.

You, get over here.

Come on.

What's the plan now?

People say we should have a small ceremony,

snap a few pictures, and post them on Facebook.

Cut the drama and just get them married!

Don't we need church papers, Eliyamma?

Forget about the church and priests!

Do you have a problem hosting the wedding in this yard?

- No, but... - Her family won't cooperate.

We'll put up a tent here,

invite the neighbours, and throw a reception!

- What do you say? - I'm oka--

Dropping this on us out of nowhere...

If it's about money--

No, it's not about the money.

Even if things are tight, I'll lend you the cash!

And I damn well know how to get it back!

What's your opinion?

Sounds good, right, Dad?

It's a brilliant decision!

Alright, then.

"Brilliant decision"?!

Here.

Hello, Father-in-law!

How's it going, girl?

- Where's the little guy? - Was just playing here.

- He's asleep now. - Aww.

What's with this look, Dad?

Trim that beard and hair before the wedding, okay?

Yeah.

- You will, right? - I will!

Alright then. Bye!

Here.

- Go eat. Talk later. - He's sleeping.

Alright!

If that gun in his hand goes off...

He's no amateur shooter.

I'll handle that.

Just don't go telling anyone.

Who would I tell?

By the way, what does "Avarachan rocks" mean?

Who said that?

Doesn't matter who.

- Just tell me what it means. - It's from the Bible, Uncle.

"Avarachan, you are the rock."

That's "Peter, you are the rock"!

Look at you, quoting the Bible!

Stop babbling and tell me what it means!

My dear Uncle... it means you're awesome!

What kind of get-up is this?

Did you stitch that shirt out of a nightie?

It's the latest fashion, Aunty.

Fashion, my foot!

Get lost!

Avaran!

Looking handsome!

Thank you, dear!

See that?

What's got into Dad?

Isn't this better than him getting wasted and picking fights?

Look how mellow he is.

This vibe suits him anyway.

Nice.

- Girl! - Yes?

- Come here. - What is it, Aunty?

- What's this for? - Put this on!

Don't breathe a word to Jaimon.

Keep this.

In the boundless sky, O light of hope so clear,

Will you dim, die out on earth and in a flash disappear?

At thoughts of life without you, my heart trembles with fear.

Look over here.

Uncle, give him a kiss.

Give him a kiss, Uncle!

- Enough? - Nice!

- Dad... - Yeah?

Are you mad at us?

- Mad? - Yeah.

Get over here!

Come on!

- Come on, snap it! - Okay!

Smile!

Dad...

Shall we head back to Chellanam tomorrow?

Tomorrow?

Yeah.

Aneeta's mother called, crying non-stop.

Her dad said we should host a ceremony over there too.

Should I call him?

No, Dad, let's go meet him.

We have the baptism next week anyway.

Don't you want to see the baby, Dad?

Did you tell Eliyammachi?

No, it'd be better if you tell her.

Listen...

If I show up there now, will Chacko's boys cause trouble?

No, Uncle talked to them and settled everything.

Besides, how long can you stay cooped up here?

Jaimon, bro...

Put your arm around her shoulder.

Hold her!

Pull her close!

Yeah, wrap your arm around.

Give us a little smile.

Right!

- Eliyamma! - Yeah?

- What is it? - Come here for a second.

Aren't you taking photos?

Later.

Bro, look this way.

What's up?

Eliyammachi...

we're thinking of heading back to Chellanam tomorrow.

Tomorrow?

Why so suddenly?

I even ordered two kilos of beef bones

thinking you'd be here!

It's just that...

Aneeta's mother has been really upset.

I see.

And with the kids insisting too...

If the whole family has decided, who am I to stop you?

Eliyammachi...

caterers are on the line,

asking what to do with the leftover food.

Tell them to wait ten minutes.

I'm not vanishing anywhere!

Okay.

Back to square one!

Just the two of us left here.

Come to Chellanam with us, Eliyammachi!

No way!

I'm not going anywhere!

What's the matter?

Getting sentimental?

Shut up, boy!

Bro, squish her cheeks. Come on!

Why don't you find someone and settle down too?

At this age?

Listen to me,

kids, in-laws, grandkids...

they'll all go their own way eventually.

Then you'll be left all alone.

Growing old alone isn't easy.

- Dad! Eliyammachi! - Yeah.

Come, let's take a photo!

Yeah, coming.

- Come take a photo. - You go on, I'll join later.

- Hey! - Yeah?

Aren't you going home?

- I should. - Aunty's all alone, that's why.

I'll go sometime.

- Okay, ready! Smile! - Go on.

Smile, everyone!

Bincy...

Bincy...

Bincy!

Who is it?

It's me, Avarachan.

What is it, Avaran Chetta?

I came to tell you something.

What's that?

We're leaving tomorrow morning.

Eliyammachi told me.

I was planning to come by in the morning.

Bincy... remember when you said

that you had no one,

and that you only had us?

It's not just about that...

Will you come with me to Chellanam, Bincy?

Meet me out back, Avaran Chetta.

We'll talk there.

I'll come out.

Go on.

Avaran Chetta...

please don't take this the wrong way.

I just don't see you that way.

No, I...

It's not that.

I'm fond of you, Avaran Chetta.

Just not in the way you mean.

Look, I...

I made a fool of myself.

- Don't breathe a word to anyone, okay? - Of course not.

I'd die of embarrassment!

Who would I even tell?

Are you alright, Avaran Chetta?

You look shaken.

I'm fine, Bincy.

Wait here, don't leave.

I'll be right back.

Avaran Chetta, drink this.

Bincy...

forget I ever said anything.

It's alright, Avaran Chetta.

Just let it go.

I'm heading out.

Who's there?

Who is it?

It's Ani, Chetta.

I saw you coming this way.

Thought I'd drop by after you were done.

You took forever, Chetta!

All done with your business?

What do you want?

I've been miserable these last two days, dear.

I wanted to end my life.

I climbed right up Vellarimala to throw myself off.

Then it hit me...

If I die without laying a finger on you,

won't I look like a total schmuck, Bincy?

Bincy, go inside and lock the door!

Bincy, don't you dare go in!

Who the hell are you threatening?

Know what this is?

I'll throw it on her, Chetta!

Avaran Chetta, move!

Hey!

This is acid!

If I say I'll throw it, I mean it!

- You can go home, Chetta. - Ani!

- I've got nothing to lose! - Ani!

I'm going to die anyway.

If I don't leave at least one scar on you,

my soul won't ever rest, Bincy!

- Please! - Get lost!

You two can live happily after I'm dead!

Get lost, you scum!

Don't cry, Bincy.

I'll only pour it on your hand.

Flinch, and it hits your face!

- Get out of here! - Talk some sense into her, Chetta!

I'll just pour it and leave quickly!

Just a drop on your hand, Bincy! Please!

Just kill me instead, Ani!

No.

I can't do that, Bincy.

I'm only doing this because I have no choice!

Others throw it in the eyes or the face, darling.

I'm only going to burn your hand.

It'll sting no worse than an ant bite!

I'll count to three.

- Get away! - I'll pour on three.

Get lost, man!

- One... - Just leave!

Two...

Three!

Over there! Over there!

Bincy...

Where are you guys looking? Look over there!

Son...

- Hey, get up! Hey! - Oops! Done deal!

What did you do, man?

What?

- The boy is dead! - Dead?!

- Oh no! - You aimed at the boar, right?

- Don't cry! - Come over here.

He must have passed out in shock.

You don't pass out from taking a bullet!

Is he really dead?!
