Please, l'll do what ever you want me to

Sir, answerthat call Must be from the Tv channel

Hello?

venu, that's my name

A well known camera man ofa well known TV channel

l know you, sir l've met you

- So, further introductions not needed - Not at all

lf prime time news today decides to air...

...your antics with that chick what will be your opinion?

Aiyo! l no longer will exist Tell me sir, what should l do?

Rs 3 lakhs, in notes of 1000 Send it with that girl

Okay, sir

Okay

Why has no one taken this?

We don't want any lOUs, sir Just give us our salary

This is not an lOU Just a security

Look, only 2 minutes left Go and begin the news telecast

By then the money will be here

Money that's not come since 4 months do you think will come in half an hour?

On its way

Then l'll read the news after it arrives

Or you do it yourself, after all you were a lion in Bharath vision, right?

Yes dude, l was indeed, a lion

When l started my own channel l became a cat

Okay, don't read, you pig l'll do it, give me that coat

No need to remove the coat l got the money

Here, Rs 3 lakhs

Did you see how we got the money?

Here's Rs 3 lakhs, take your dues lf anything's left, leave it there itself

Bro, l have to go read news Please keep my 40 aside

Brother, where's mine?

A Bharath vision lD card? Are you back with that channel?

l went for an 'operation', dear My old card came of use, that's all

Stop your chatter Come with me

Were you going to explain all that happened, to them?

You can as well air it on news time! Let everybody here be aware!

Great! Remember the way you followed ethics so strictly?

When it didn't work, you quit Bharath vision to start a new channel

As the head, you are resorting to 3rd rate tactics, to pay the salaries...

...and that too mimicking a decent guy, like venu sir

Go and tell venu everything! You can get married to my dead body

He'll kill me!

l've not made it a habit, right? This was only the first time

Sir?

What is it?

Minister Kunjumoideen will land at 1:00 PM None of us will be there to coverthe event

Select some good channel and just reproduce their content

lsn't that what we do every time!

Hey! Also include an 'it seems' in every other sentence

What's that sir?

Like...the Minister is involved in the sex racket case 'it seems'

Or...there is a chance he'll resign 'it seems'

Like this, we include 'it seems' in all matters, we are not sure of

Understood?

-Yes, now l do - Then go

What a big media staryou were Rs 1.5 lakh salary and...

...post of chief operating officer What went wrong at Bharath vision?

Conceit! l have only myselfto blame A kind ofsmugness, dying to be pricked!

Oh Lord! lt's venu!

Would he have somehow come to know what l did?

Aiyo! Would Benny Tharakan have talked to him, about it?

Will the Town Hall be free tomorrow?

Why?

To keep my dead body for public viewing

Hello? What's up dude?

ls it? He doesn't know!

Aren't you ashamed to go cover a silly 'lathi charge'?

Oh, you call itjust time pass, eh? Definitely not! You are itching for kudos!

Returning from Delhi after 5 years just a cheap trick to say you are back

Ow! He's swearing!!

He can't be idle even for a day without taking up some work

Probably needs the money

He?

The money he earns for each assignment of Reuters and CNN...

...no camera man would get even after 3 or4 years oftoil

When sensitive issues crop up channels in Delhi bid for his services

4 lnternational awards including the Rory Peck Award

This is not for money Just to show off, that's all!

Forwhich channel could it be?

Certainly not, for Bharath vision

Look here Suraj Renuka Ma'am has come

lfyou confront her, you'll need to look out for anotherjob

Her attitude is 'Just take a leap ifyou cannot'

l will take it up, not with her but with CEO vijayakumar sir

She separated me and my wife allotting different shifts without a word to us

My shift is from 6:00 AM to 6:00 PM and hers, from 6:00 PM to 6:00 AM

l have been gazing at stars the whole of last month

- Be quiet, dude - Get lost, buddy

When she joined as junior reporter l was already here, as sub-editor

Now she claims to be executive editor!

Arun, come here

On the run down, first item should be Minister Kunjumoideen and sex racket

The women's activist Sharada and the retired old DySP Ramarajan

l want both ofthem on phone connected to me, right time

lfyou come up with stories like unable to connect, and so on, l'll blast you!

- Revathi? - Ma'am

Greetings, l am Renuka The news, headlines

Minister Kunjumoideen has also been implicated in Vadakara sex racket case...

...says retired DySP Ramarajan

ln Kuttikanam adivasi zone, Land mafia faked 420 documents

The news in detail

Minister Kunjumoideen's part in the case is now a topic ofcontroversy

The girl who'd been harassed had named the minister too in her original statement

This claim by DySP Ramarajan, the officer who was investigating the case then...

...has sparked off these fresh controversies

Arun, didn't you get connection?

l am trying, but not getting through

You'll get it from me ifyou don't get it, right now

Get lost from here ifyou can't, dude!

The ministerwho was in Delhi since the last 4 days, will be here...

...in Nedumbashery airport by afternoon...is the latest report

Sir may l?

Yes

What's it, dude?

l have a complaint

You oryourwife?

So this game was with your approval, eh?

Dude, l'll know even if a leaf moves in this place

Sir, it's been a month since anything moved at all!

Sorry, she takes the decisions

She can, but she'll have to bear my mother's curse

What's your mother's role in this?

Motherwants to die, only after she sees her grand child

That's being greedy, isn't it? Didn't she get to see you, as a baby?

- Look here sir - lfyou want to change shifts, go ask her

ls she Goddess of Chottanikkara to bow and beg favors from?

Go and ask her directly, useless!

Why use me to test your sharp tongue?

- Sir, can you help? - No!

Oh, there she is! The she-devil!

We don't pay a salary for couples to coochy-coo during work

There's no question ofchanging the shift time

May be, on humanitarian considerations...?

l don't see such considerations when you force TAM rating on me

Do you think l am a machine?

l've lost out an entire life! Don't forget that!

Hello?

ls it?

Did you see? No, l will come

Sir

The minister is in the guest house, women activists and party members too

We can expect something hot You take overthe news, l'll come 'live'

Did you see that enthusiasm? Focus channel got venu to shoot for them

You mean Reuter's venu?

Here?

He's come from Delhi and is here since a week, to testify on some old case

Must have accepted this job having free time on his hands

Oh Lord! ln today's lathi charge once, just one beating...

...may this queen ofJhansi receive on her head, please God!

- What's it, dude? - Nothing, sir

- Preetha, did you see venu sir? - ls Reuters venu covering this?

- Why is he here, for this lifeless story? - Ourvice President requested him, come

Where the heck is this man?!

Must be hanging around somewhere

The Ministerwill soon be here

Nothing will happen till l get out of here

We cannot be too sure, sir

Your own party members will stir up problems

That's also part of politics Creating and solving problems

You guys need your guns and lathis l need to use my tongue, just watch

Don't get excited

Stop your slogans

Stop! Stop, l say

Stop, l say Don't you understand?

l have only respect forthe women folk ofthis land

Listen to what l have to say...

...afterwhich you can shout dissent or block my way! Please!

Please...please...please!

Okay, stop Let him say his piece

Don't bother asking me l will tell you everything

All this hullaballoo is simply because of the statement ofa retd DySP, 6 years later

Let the police investigate l am prepared to co operate

Do you want me to step down during the period of investigation?

Let my party or chief minister demand l am prepared for that also

To counter a false accusation What more should l do?

How is it?

Enough?

Mohammed, what is the schedule for this evening?

Renu, don't try to barge in He subdued everyone with just 4 sentences

Don't think you can play around with this news, the whole day today

Chey! l came because l heard venu was covering this for Focus TV

You can expect fireworks when he's around

Move aside all ofyou

Move!

See you later

Move

Come on finish off all these sons of guns!!!

Charge!

Get lost you!

Start the car

See that shoe and that bare foot

- Shoot both, dude! - Okay

Da!

You are totally useless Get lost, you...!

Sorry, ma'am

venu sir?

There won't be any more further issues, will there?

What?

l mean the other one?

Did he see me throwing my shoe?

Well, if he did, let him!

- Here, go and serve it - Thank you, sir

Talking diplomatically and calmly the event passed off uneventfully

But someone threw a shoe at him and party members turned violent

Chey! Who could it be?

Did you see the rhythm in those shots?

Oh!

One second, turning on a single leg a180degree pan, a shot with amazing impact!

Wouldn't you have got it using both legs for 2 seconds?

Sure you will

But it can be shown only in your cheap, crappy, sub standard channel

All good channels will cut them, edit them

Whatever l shoot, will not give them a chance to edit

- Oh! Forsure - Look there, my boy

Chey! They chopped the scenes, those vagabonds!

Smart boys don't need an excuse to edit

Yes, venu here

l came, created an issue and shot those scenes foryou

Now, using my footage, you are teaching your boys editing, eh?

Rascals! With no sense about rules of continuity!

What? Sorry?

You can stuffyour sorry under your leg...arms...

...l'll take it when l need it!

What is it, dude? Giggling away to glory,eh?

Twin screen play writers What the heck do you know?

They've come here for my sake To discuss a program for my NBl Channel

lfyou have anything to say direct it at me, not them

l will tell this not only to you, but to them also

l didn'tjump up from the middle of my dinner, to wield a camera

As a gold medalist from film institute l refused to step into the film world...why?

My ambition was to shoot visuals that were authentic, not manipulated

Understood?

Humph! Cinema my foot!

Looks like, a gas bag sprouted hands and legs!

Like army stories narrated by tea shop owners with big moustaches

Sure! Army stories indeed

Kargil war! Who covered it forthe Defense Ministry?

Him

The terrorist attack at the Taj hotel, Mumbai

Who covered the commando operation for CNN channel?

Was it Azhagappan?

Didn't you say we have something exclusive?

Yes, there is no one else here Only 2 of us, exclusive literally, come

What are your intentions?

Dishonorable ones, of course!

Sure! Go climb a wall!

Oh! That!

No! Please no...not before marriage

Then?

Why that disappointed expression, when l said that?

Aiyada! Disappointment!

Do you know to cook?

- Sure, to an extent - Okay

- Where's the kitchen? - Over there

What do you prefer? Tea or coffee?

Before that, by the way have you heard my song?

Song?

Music track, karaoke

ln our future lives, very frequently we have to face 2 gigantic issues

Your cooking and my music!

Let's begin our interaction from that point

As rays ofthe fading evening sun, lay sprawled on the shores unrestrained

Swinging your little tender arms, dear on a little boat you rowed, my baby dear

Tear drops neverfell but brimmed Eyes that glistened with tears unshed

Memories, like a wick of lamp burning not feeling the heat of the flame brightening

oh, why did you leave me and go My sweet little chirpy red sparrow

l wait on these shores foryou on and on My desires like roots spread far and yon

As rays ofthe fading evening sun, lay sprawled on the shores unshackled

Swinging yourtender little arms, dear in a boat you rowed away, my baby dear

As the wheels oftime and age Turned around on earth's heritage

As flowering trees and young Laurel grew and changed beyond recall

As before my eyes this little stream faded out of sight, never to be seen

l turned into a golden sand boat that didn't have water to go afloat

As rays ofthe fading evening sun, lay sprawled on the shores uncontrolled

Swinging yourtender little arms, dear in a boatyou rowed away, my baby dear

Adorned in anklets on feet so pretty Bangles aplenty on hands so dainty

A garland, you once gave me with blossoms of Mimusop's Elengi

Festivities, dance ofwarfares Long over are the temple fairs

A sentinel l stand in a temple forsaken Like a burnt out black stone lamp alone

As rays ofthe fading evening sun, lay sprawled on the shores unrestrained

Swinging yourtender little arms, dear in a boat you rowed away, my baby dear

As rays offading evening sun, sprawled upon the shores unrestrained

Swinging yourtender little arms, dear in a boatyou rowed away, my baby dear

As rays of fading evening sun, lay sprawled upon the shores unrestrained

Swinging your tender little arms, dear in a boat you rowed away, my baby dear

Go climb the wall!

Cruel fellow!

And then?

Why mood off, sir? A kind of sadness?

He's sad that he can't have a baby

Haven't you heard? Sorrow of being childless

What do the doctors say?

No use! No use at all!

How can a baby be born when we didn't have a chance?

Cruel she-devil Witch, hellcat!

Cheater!

Da! You don't say anything

l will, she cheated me also l will tell you, the rest ofthe story

lt was when, l quit Bharath vision and started my own channel, the NBl

lt was 2 or 3 days before its launch

The day before these lovers tired after love making...

...decided to get married at the registry office

Well known NRl businessman and Malayalee Rajan Kartha nominated...

...as Rajya Sabha memberfrom Kerala as decided by Democratic party central powers

State party president and possibly future Chief Minister, Bharathan Pillai...

...overcoming objections ofother parties in Kerala...

...vouched for Rajan Kartha's nomination

When Kerala does not have a single candidate or MP...

Rishi, this is a good omen

Which one?

Our channel is taking off, at a time when the situation is heating up with news

Our channel won't have any dearth for news

That's true, but actually it's not the way you think it is, Jose'aettan

From today, all channels will focus on Rajan Kartha and Bharathan Pillai

But we will wake up in 2 days with an exclusive story that'll divert viewers

All other channels are baffled

What's the story?

4 exclusive stories are ready

We'll just decide what to air We have 2 more days, right?

There is 1 which could be most exclusive, we can't ignore that

venu!

Ah! Has the bridegroom arrived?

Don't you know him? venu

Who doesn't?

- Kelvin Joseph's partner - l know him

Don't splurge all your money on him although he may convince you

Come

We are getting married tomorrow

But not inviting you, it's a registered marriage

Rishi did mention it, congrats!

Thanks

Give it to me

Dude, it's only a signature tomorrow Don't take way Renu, for another month

She is my sub-editor

Come down to earth dude, just beginning and thinks he's already a channel bigwig

Go, go

Dad wanted a proper wedding

Find someone else then, to stand well decorated and smiling...shall we?

l just mentioned dad's wish

Let's find someone for dad then Will your mom allow it?

God! What a thorny tree

Am l a thorny tree?

Am l not a flower, hmmm?

Hey! Can't you wait till tomorrow?

l've reached limits of my patience, dude!

Rishi come here, l'm reiterating what l've always said

l'm not investing, to strut around like a channel owner, it's only for business

l have no allegiance to any particular religion or party

Ratings, commercial value of news, that's all

Also, l'm giving you the freedom you've always wanted

Correct! Even otherwise who are we indebted to?

A man comes home, freshens up waits for his kids to sleep, views Tv...

...for 2 hours, the programs and news forwhich we have toiled and sweated

Ask him to get lost, l say!

Sheer attitude problem Let's see you like this always, okay?

Sure, if this attitude shifts...

...l swear l'll work for you, for your channel, for what you pay!

Renu, its Manilal here

A shocking exclusive! l got this information, just now

Okay, Mani

venu, something important, come

Rishi! Can your channel go on air today, tonight?

We are on to an exclusive which nobody may get

Yes or no?

The promos have to start by today evening, 6:00 PM

NBl will be launched tonight at 10:00 with news, that's going to shock Kerala

Promos have to start on internet and FM Radio

Rishi, seeing the promos, people will wait for the shocking news...

...but what if the info is wrong?

We already have 4 other stories that will shock, we'll start with any ofthem

Forward this now itself to play up

Okay

What is that?

5m, waterproof USB wire camera Usually used in surgical procedures

lt will enter any body organ or even the intestines, to shoot

But why, for our purpose?

62 degree wide vision view

Av details will be, clear as crystal, high resolution

Have you prepared your introduction lines?

Let's shoot it here in the vehicle itself

Do we have to?

lt must be your face before the visuals You won't get any benefit otherwise

Okay

Ready, rolling

ln lndia, people worm into political and law making infrastructures ofthis country...

Party members protested so vehemently

They raise a hue and cry only here, none of it reaches Delhi

lsn't that why l extended my hand, when you asked?

Now, where is that stuff which must reach my hand?

Oh that, yes! That is ready

True, it's the key to your fridge

l took it by telling varghese, it needed repair

The entire amount you've asked is here, count it

This will cover only the Rajya sabha seat

The crown of a central minister is on its way, don't forget that

l shall continue remembering it like this, all the time, isn't that enough?

Sure

Sir is returning

Get the camera

Renu, take it

Come

Where? What is it?

varghese, get an ambulance ready So as to reach here, in just 2 minutes

Hello? Yes, Bharathan Pillai

Who was it?

- Don't know, got disconnected - Call him back

Now it is switched off

Greetings, good evening NBl, News Bureau of lndia

No need for introductions for news, that's true and authentic

ln the same way NBl without introductions

From this minute, foryou, from today

As a brand new channel, naturally we come to you, with exclusive news

Confessions, we have seen them many times on channel screens

But here is a secret which will shock Kerala, truth brought by a priest

ln 2003 there was a sensational...

Sorry venu Sorry forthe inconvenience

varghese, drop him wherever he needs to go

Sorry

What the heck did you build up to?

Was it only me? Who asked for an ambulance?

lfthe news was true we had to shift stufffrom here

What will l do with that cash? Thatwas the reason

Who is this priest? Who knows?

A sinnerwho is not penitent deserves to be punished

Rishi

What happened?

Where is Renu?

You returned together, didn't you?

We waited for you till the last minute When you didn't come, we aired another story

Tell me what happened?

l sent her offat 9:00 PM With the footage we shot

And then?

Do you think she could be hurt?

No! Don't panic! Nothing will happen to her

Why don'twe air this issue now itself?

Rishi look!

Candidate for Rajya Sabha, Rajan Kartha and Bharathan pillai Democratic party president...

...caught in the act with crores of money changing hands, watch it!

How can your program on confessions have any effect...

...when such explosive news is being aired?

This channel was a dead baby even before it was born

Even a launch program couldn't be done confidentially...

...and l've wasted my money Enough, just wind up now

This is Renuka, with cameraman Venu from Bharathan Pillai's residence

- Sir - Where did you drop her?

Sir, at the over-bridge Another car came and she got into it

Let's go to Bharath vision

Move man

You are finished!!!

You are no more!

Over! l'll just think you died afterturning insane!

Hello?

venu, you dragged and threw me down from a very great height

l called to let you know my happiness

A deep wound and the sharp pain When it heals, only l'll feel it

But be sure, you also will know it

Democratic party after its meeting...

...decides to strip Bharathan Pillai's presidential position

They have also requested vigilance...

...to start investigations against Kartha and Bharathan Pillai

Oh that was a terrible thing to do!

Doesn't matter Forgiven

lf l was 1 day late, l would've had to stand in a queue at the family court

l've forgiven!

l will not forgive! She ruined my NBl

He wasn't referring to you

Bharathan Pillai would have been a Chief Minister today

Today he'sjust a state committee member

The rotten corpse!

lts 5 years since we heard anything about NRl, Rajan Kartha

- Da! - What is it, da?

They are all his people Send them away, quickly

l'm hungry, where's your bike?

Da?

Did you pay salary to your staff?

-Yes l did - How did you manage?

Did you get a windfall?

You refused to loan me So l sold you

How?

We got incriminating footage ofthat DySP Benny

Some youngster shot it at some resort

l showed him the footage and threatened him, mimicking you

Rs 3 lakhs

Stop!

- Stop! - Don't punch me

Stop the bike! Aiyo!

l'll kill you

Can't l use your name a bit?

This has a different name You want to see...?

Will an action do?

- Have you gone away? - l am here

l will use you also

Don't do that l am not like that

What's happening?

Police!

Why are you dancing in the middle ofthe night?

We were just exercising

Exercise? Middle ofthe night? Put them both in thejeep

Wait!

l will come by myself

Do l have to repeat it to you?

You'll face consequences ifyou lay your hands on me

Tomorrow, all channels will carry your stupid face, as its cover story

Beware! You are playing games with Reuters stinger Venu, got it?

You may be big people, but when you play such public games, what shall we do?

Oh, so what shall we do?

Sir?

This is his usual drama

Any time police catch him or gets into any other issue...

...he will immediately say that he's big-wig of a channel

He's nothing ofthat sort Does video coverage, ofweddings

Da!

l will come

Walk quickly, man!

Come in

Move aside!

Francis! Get their bikes to the police station

Put in a liter of petrol also, okay?

Get up, l say

Get up

What's happening?

This man is a nuisance

He brought the bench from the veranda to sleep here

Lock me up Or, l will sleep here

l always sleep at ten after a glass of milk

Go

This is sheer menace and l already wrote out the FlR!

lf you want to get out get someone to bail you

We don't have anyone, sir We are orphans

We are from the public orphanage

Sir?

Please switch on that fan

Do you hear him? Switch on the fan

Who is it, middle ofthe night?!

lf it is anyone important ask him to call tomorrow, l'm offto sleep

Hello, who is it?

lsn't this the number of Venu stinger cameraman, of Reuters?

Who is it, sir? ls it from the orphanage?

Hello?

l am advocate, Manilal What is the case?

Counsel, it was a mistake Please ask him to overlook this

My police pal, see what happens when you confront me, at midnight?

- Did you see now? - Heard now?

Thanks a lot

venu?

l've been trying you from last evening but couldn't get through

Who are you?

l am advocate, Manilal l have something to tell you

What is it?

lt's about an exclusive

However important it is l'll see you tomorrow...

...when l am fresh Come let's go!

So tell me, what is this exclusive, all about?

An exclusive like this won't ever occur in the history of news channels again

A story that has to be shot risking life

l've risked my life many times Forget that, come to the point

l will, but before that, l want a firm affirmation from you

This exclusive info was got from a particular channel

The story has to be covered, only forthem

Their reporterwill accompany you Do you have any objections?

Once l disclose information You can't go back on your word

Mr lawyer, l do follow certain ethics lf l give my word, it is forever

So you agree?

Agreed

But l'll be the one to decide what to do and how to do it

Okay, agreed

Now l come to the actual point What you have to cover, is a murder

The murder planned, is on behalf ofa well known politician of Kerala

Sorry! l cannot do this

Hey! venu! Please!

A life is more important than a piece of news

Since we have info, we have to try and save him

lt may lessen the news value, but ratings mustn't depend on blood spilt

venu, let me explain

lt's not my urge to make money by 'live' coverage ofa man's death

He can't be saved by anyone even if it's reported to the police

Because, Bharathan Pillai still dictates, even though, he's not yet Chief Minister

- Bharathan Pillai? -Yes

This murderwill take place on his behalf

We can't prevent it, can't we at least make sure the culprits don't escape?

Okay, so who is the victim?

A man in Bharathan Pillai's group We don't know who orwhat...

What rubbish is this?

l can only assure you this information is 100% genuine

Tell me the place, time and date and who is the reporter, coming with me

Renu?

This woman?!

Find someone else! Lawyer, drop me back!

venu, listen to me You can't go, you agreed...

...l disclosed info because you claimed to have ethics

Did you tell me before hand this useless creature was coming?

You only said some reporter

Didn't l warn you to disclose info only after telling him everything, Chey!

Think it's not Renuka, but a stranger X orY, with a professional approach

l am totally professional! Such a riskyjob, l need someone who gels with me

Petty personal issues mustn't come in the way...

...ofthis exclusive with such strong social impact

We don't have any option, but Renuka

venu, you can insist on whatever conditions you want

Please

Please venu!

Okay

These are my conditions l'll be the sole decision maker

Reporter X or Y is not allowed to make any suggestions

Sure

A DSNG van, without any crew must be at my disposal

Okay

visuals l 'UP' has to be aired, unedited With no interference in it, whatsoever

Agreed

My remuneration alone, is Rs 10 lakh

- Here, it's got more than what you've asked - Let it wait, there are more conditions

visuals must accompany a scrolling script...

'visuals exclusively covered by cameraman venu'

No intro or sign out by the reporter

Agreed

You have 12 hours to plan and prepare, Renu knows the details

Okay

The baton has now shifted into your hands

venu...Renu? Shake hands on this

Not necessary!

What's this? You'll be working together hereafter

Be professional

venu please?

Keep the cash in the car

You have neither an intro nor sign off Why the hell are you tagging along?

Suppose you run away with the footage as a revenge forthe old grouse?

There is only 1 creature on earth who'd do such things, and that's you!

l forgot to tell you, DSNG receives poor signal at the crime spot

Even if it did, we cannot go there with the van, right?

Oh, you are right

Okay, now both of you can chart out a plan

Not 'both' of us Only me!

- Shall l suggest something? - No!

- Listen first - Not necessary

Don't get into a fervor and try to save the victim

You must be so blood thirsty! Cruel she-devil!

Murder will occur even if we interfere and finally we'll become defendants

- Are you sure? -very sure

Then l will surely interfere, l don't care if l'm accused, you'll also go to jail

Come on, be serious

You want me to be serious? Really?

lf l did, you'll be lying in lCU, very serious

There are arrears in plenty against you

No need to contribute, be quiet and just allow me to do my stuff

To hell with you!

Lean back and sit without touching me, especially your bust!

You dirty...chi!!!

Turn left

This is the club house

Here? ln such an open area?

Disputed property

Government acquired 15 years ago, not even a watchman will be here

What time is this crime scheduled for?

Between 8:00 and 9:00 PM

ls it a favorable time? Like they fix in weddings?

Come here

Are you scared to be alone? l am going up there

A little

Then wait right here

After some time, your fear will increase

lfyou make a sound, l'll kill you with one blow!

Hey!

What is it?

A rat!

Rat?! l'll stuff cloth down your throat! Not a sound from you!

Don't scare me, you she-devil!!!

How did you come up?

l too learnt martial art Kalari, for 6-7 years

Look...a car

Let me go, don't kill me l begged forgiveness at his feet

Take me to him

You are great man Sirwill come to meet you here

Don't hurt me, please Let me go

Leave me

Let me go

Don't harm me

Leave me, aiyo!

Don't harm me, sir Didn't l confess everything?

Will your confessions give me back, all what l lost?

My image, position, the days l spent idle at home, since last 5 years

Suguna, to you, wasn't it just an itch on your tongue?

When you betrayed us to the channel you knew very well...

...it would cost me and Kartha our political careers

Let me at least have thejoy of deciding your end

Sir, don't kill me

Take him away and hang him

Hello, venu?

Ready?

l am going to upload the footage ofthe visuals

You have to 'UP' itwith the scrolling script and your logo

Okay

When you switch on, l'll go watch TV in some place, any editing, remember...?!

Okay venu, there won't be any interference from us

Yes! venu's footage will come now UP the scrolling script along with it, okay?

Get ready with camera DSNG crew and everything

We've got to be in front of Bharathan Pillai's house

l am going to that restaurant to watch TV

l want to see ifthey have messed with my visuals

Be right here, till l get back

A true and shocking incident that occurred a few moments ago

Prompted us to air this special bulletin Brutal visuals we have never seen before

Democratic party leader Bharathan Pillai's Cruel revenge against party member Sugunan

Don't harm me, sir Didn't l confess to everything?

My image, position, the days l spent idle at home since last 5 years

Suguna, wasn't itto you just an itch on yourtongue?

Don't kill me

Take him away and hang him

From the place of incident this is Renuka with camera man, Venu

Get down the way you came up

Sure, give me the bag l will throw it down

From the place of incident this is Renuka with cameraman, Venu

You...!

lsn't it them? The camera man and reporter?

Sir, this is really amazing Did the 2 ofyou really shoot this?

- ls his body still hanging there? - May be, let the police enquire

- They must have shot it, hiding - No dude, he shot it right from the front

They wouldn't be alive ifthey'd been caught by those thugs

Sir, we are on ourway to Bharathan Pillai's house

lf Pillai resists arrest we'll have to use force

We've sent ourforces to the club house

Once the body is traced and identified we'll immediately go in and arrest, sir

Look! Bharathan Pillai's house Police have come to arrest him

Afterwatching visuals of Bharath Vision's exposure

You are seeing here the frenzy of people

We also know only what was shown on Tv

Police have already gone to the place ofthe incident

Let us trace the body first afterthat we'll take necessary steps

Will there be any arrests, sir?

We cannot say, at thisjuncture We'll let you know by and by

Move!

Arrest the murderer

Stop!

What do you want? Pelt stones till l die?

Go ahead Do it, kill me

No need for police and courts You have the right to punish me

Before that, you have to know certain truths

You don't have to say any darn thing!

We saw everything on Tv

Just answer the police when they question you

varghese!

Look! There's the dead man!

Whatever l have to say is here, for you to see, 'alive'

lt was him, it seems who l killed and then hanged

What more can l say?! Ask him whateveryou want

Mr Suguna, what do you have to say?

l don't know anything, l too saw it on TV, Pillai sirwill tell you the rest

Mr Pillai, what do you have to say?

l don't understand why that girl and cameraman have enmity to me

l also have no idea how they created such visuals

l am not a technical expert

You remember, 5 years ago the same team hunted and...

...pinned Kartha and me down with a bribe charge, using visuals

l couldn't prove anything then

Break and destroy Bharath vision! Come, dude!

Damn his hidden camera!!

Wait there! You can't go after creating controversies

Go, get into the van without gaping, you idiot

Don't let them go

Come on, climb

Abu! van!

Move

Burn it up!

Turn right, we'll go to Bharath vision

Turn right lt's safer there

What?

Turn right We'll go to the studio

Don't utter a word What do we do at the studio?

Move aside

Where is he? Come

l don't know what happened The original footage...

Enough! Stop

- l wasjust talking to the home secretary - Later

- Let me discuss this with my legal advisor - We'll get him to the police station, come

Move aside!

Get down!

Today, some shocking visuals ofa brutal murderthat stunned...

...the conscience of Kerala were aired by Bharath Vision

But soon after that, within minutes the man who was claimed to be killed...

- l am venu - Where are you?

- Are you in your apartment? - No, at the studio

l am right beneath your apartment

Right below my apartment?!

Don't you dare go there! l'll kill the 2 ofyou

You went to favor Bharath vision Exclusive it seems!

Go, take her also along l can't do anything foryou

Tell me where the keys are, vagabond!

Only you can go in, not her

l'll decide that, now tell me where is the key, useless!

On the window sill

Don't open the door to anyone, l'll be ruined if anyone knows you are in there

Look, you don't broadcast this, okay? l'll kill you, ifyou do!

Get inside, you...!

Oh Lord, am l fated to die without a drop to drink?

Protestors from Bharathan Pillai's house were uncontrollable by the time...

...they reached the Bharath Vision studios

Police arrived and stopped them while breaking the glass and trying to barge in...

...and on charges of telecasting false news

...they arrested CEO and 1 ofthe directors, Vijaykumar

His granny's information! He has to be kicked, the pig!

lt was l who got the information Not vijaykumar, sir

What?

lt was l who was informed

Tell me, who gave the info to you

Come on tell me

Go on

lt was the lawyer, Manilal

So he was the one who betrayed, eh?

He is innocent l know very well

Not innocent (actor) ldavela Babu (actor)

How can you trust him? ls he God, or your dad?

He's my cousin, all exclusive info l've covered, were based on his tip-offs

His info was always true including the bribe case

Manilal will not betray

Pillai deserves a bouquet

He retrieved all he'd lost on a single night At the same time, made us go into hiding

Yes, now l can hear

Mr Bharathan Pillai, the incident at the club house being proved false...

...are you now claiming that the bribe case charged on you

...and Kartha 5 years back was totally baseless?

Didn't the truth come out by itself?

Now let the central committee decide what l should do

l've suffered for 5 years, in spite of not having committed a single crime

The people and party members who rejected me then, are now with me

l'm sure the central committee will realize this

Thank you

High hopes! l didn't hang that fellow to get an award for good behavior

Let them bring it back All what they took away

The 2 ofthem are in a pathetic state Must be hiding, not knowing what to do

Renuka along with camera man venu

Dude, this is simple straight math

Anyone with an ounce of brains can decipher this move, let alone venu

The credibility he'd destroyed l managed to get back

Now to ruin theirtrust and careers l'm taking the same route, a silent chase

Sir, but isn't there a risk? Will he not come after you again?

Of course he will But not immediately, varghese

They will not get out until this noise dies down

l too gain time that way, because by then...

...l'll occupy the chief minister's chair

Let them come after that

- Here, use onions - l don't want your onions

Don't show your craving

- l never asked - l won't give, even ifyou ask

Shhhh!

Someone's knocking

Some one's outside

Sure, there is someone

Greedy devil!

Thanks

Ask them to come in

Burn it all up, dude!

Sir, this is venu's l-Pad All the visuals are in this

So we've got all the original footage

-Yes sir - Good!

Settle their accounts

Having been proved that the visuals were false...

Police have charged a case against Venu and Renuka

And they are on the lookoutto find them The sooner they are...

Switch it off, l say!

Says the city police commissioner

What do we do now?

Think! lfyou get a brainwave, tell me

We need to know the legal consequences

Shall l call Manilal?

Who am l, to ask permission? Your husband?

My phone was lost in that DSNG van lfyou give me your phone, l'll call him

Call him with the speaker phone switched on

l want to hearwhat he says

Okay

Don't tell him about this place

Stand near me and call

Hello?

Mani, it's me Renu

Where were you?

Couldn't you call? l was so worried

Don't ever be caught by the party men or police

All ofthem are in a frenzy

Tell me, what can happen to us, at the most?

lfyou are caught it will be a big problem

Once arrested, you won't get bail for 40 days

l'll tell you a way out, because l'm concerned about you

The 1st one, who's caught gets 40 days in lock-up

When the 2nd person surrenders, it'll be forjust 1or 2 days

You will surely get bail, being a woman

Why take a risk? Get him caught somehow

Tell me the place, l'll take care ofthe rest

Don't glare at me, he likes me He must've said that, to save me

Your Mani...l'll...!

You and your people are all ofthe same kind, cheats!

Didn't you move away from me, to talk in secret?

l've been told the FlR has not yet been written

Yes

Tell me, you want to be defendant or a witness?

There's not much time isn't it, Anthony?

Yes, sir

Let's say, you trusted Renuka and aired the visuals from Bharath vision

You neither knew anything nor did you entrustvenu this job, that's all

Bharatha vision can continue functioning as usual from tomorrow

What do you say?

Where are they? venu and Renuka?

They are on the run Don't you know?

We have decided not to run after them

Sorry sir, but l'm running afterthem

Was it for this show-down he was brought to the police club?

No sir, the commissioner wanted to question...

- No! - Sir!

You never asked me why l was running afterthem?!

l have my doubts, as to why they wanted to create a footage...

...ofa man being killed when he actually was not

So l thought l'll ask them directly

Benny

You must find them, quickly Time is running out, for me and you!

You heard that?

Today's 10:00 PM news has to be neutral

But stress on, Renuka's thirst for exclusivity and popularity

Okay, sir

And venu, just a camera man who covered, what she asked him to

See that you protect him lf possible, we'll drop a bombshell

An exclusive interview with venu

ls it to be here, in the studio?

You...! Go get your text ready for the evening news!

Go, all ofyou

Dumbo! But not when he doesn't get his pay!

SP Somarajan sir is calling

Sir?

Rishi, Police may raid your studio Their intention is to catch venu

Come, we have work to do

lfthey begin to shoot take away the camera

Return it only after removing the footage

- lndhu, is the sound ready? - Ready

What is the problem, sir? Don't harass him, innocent chap!

Sir, there's venu

Are you making fun of me? Where is he buddy, the Reuters stinger?

Why would he be here? He must be at Bharath vision studio

Don't play your games with me l'll deal with you good and proper

Tell me! You must know His 1 and only friend, right?

Sir, leave his collar Look, it's going on 'live'

Live?

Mr Rishikesh, as a responsible channel head shouldn't you be helping the police?

Get lost, you useless!!! Sure, l'll help you catch him, you...!!!

How can you behave like this?

Sudhi, cut Rishi's audio

Now onwards it will be a shower ofswearwords!

Ouch!

Okay, let me know ifyou get info This is my number, here

Okay, see you then

Sure

Sir, watch out, these rascals might put a camera even into our innerwear

lndhu, audio on

The competition for exclusive news may have put Renuka into thisjeopardy

What you saw now, is how, based on past events...

...police are treating the entire media community

This is what DySP Benny Tharakan wrote,just before he left the studio

l'll deal with you outside, you dog!

ln case you don't see me on this channel you can conclude, l'm in police custody

We are on to fresh info about the telecasting offalse news issue

The police who are on the look out for Reuters stinger camera man Venu ...

...in connection with the controversial murderfootage, will join us on line now

Hello venu?

Sorry, ourtechnicians will soon connect us

Hello?

Venu? Can you hear me?

Send me at least a bottle of brandy, you fool!

Hello?

l'm going insane, there's nothing to booze, you miserly vagabond

Hello

- Can'tyou hear me? - Yes, l can, tell me Venu

What actually happened that night?

What else, itwasjust a drama by that Pillai

l must be kicked in the butt for falling for that...!

Hello, Venu?

You vagabond!

ln this situation what have you got to say?

There are unscrupulous fellows amongst us, who use personal phone calls ...

...ofeven their closest pals for exclusivity

lfthat attitude changes we can be free of such issues

Thank you, MrVenu

A short break before we move on to othertopics

Sir, Kakkanad, Skyline apartments

Sir, we've traced his hide out Skyline apartments, at Kakkanad

very good

But we couldn't trace the floor he occupies

We'll enquire if any media person resides there and search that first

Da! l've favors saved up, to return to you! You sold me, on 1st chance you got, right?

Forget it, your phone call was traced and police have located you

Somaraj sir informed me, they'll be there right now, so go away from there

Where will l go at this time of the night?

Just move from there for the time being l'll find another place and call you

Where are you going?

Police have traced us here They'll be here at any moment

Oh Lord!

One minute, l'll go to the john and come

l can't bear it any more

What?

Please stop!

What for?

What? What is it?

l want to pee

Oh! This will be our ruin! Couldn't you finish it at the apartment?

You locked the door and took off before l could, didn't you?

Get off

Please

Chey! That was an ambulance

Where is the bike's key, you...!?

Here

You were trying to get me caught, right?

l did that, so you wouldn't leave me and go

You cheat! Don't lie l know...you didn't go to pee

Chey! Get lost da!

You dare say, 'get lost, da' to me?

Didn't you start the bike to go off and let me get caught?

l thought l'll be ready by the time you come back

Why did you lock me up in the flat?

So what? Yes l did!!! To trap you, now what about it?

Sure, l too did the same

One of us must give ourselves up We can't live like fugitives, under pressure

l am not giving myself up without finding a solution to this

Then drop me at the police station and go

Don't start being sentimental, okay?

Sentiments?! Sure l don't have any Remember? Only popularity mania, right?

Look, no flashbacks, okay? Pouring oil on troubled waters!

You are a reporter, me, a camera man That's all, now get on the bike

Unless this is solved we are not surrendering

A hideout is ready, take the 1st left afterthe Alpuzha Nedumudi bridge

After about, 1.5 km you'll see a wooden gate

l'll be there, with Abu

Okay

Who was it?

Rishi

Hi

Come dude, this summer house belongs to a friend, he's in the USA

Come

l'll come back tomorrow morning

What?

l'll be here in the morning with clothes and a hearing aid

Buy all newspapers you can lay hands on

Bharath vision has denounced both ofyou

vijaykumar presented it on the late night report

Tell this to hertomorrow

- lt's not over - What else?

News from Delhi, yourjob at Reuters has been terminated

What else?

Nothing much

Bharathan Pillai is being considered for CM post

The central committee is meeting Swearing in may happen soon

- Okay - See you, dude

Abu These clothes are for them

Da, give me those newspapers

- These are clothes for both ofyou - Thank you

Here's your hearing aid

Rishi, the original footage is missing from the DSNG van

Without that how can we prove the truth?

That's how they planned it The screen play was fool-proof

From the time we passed info to the restaurant drama, a neat script!

Written and directed by Bharathan Pillai

lfso, Rajan Kartha must be the producer

He's here in Kochi since the last few days

Almost from the day you came from Delhi

Didn't you say, swearing in ofthe CM will happen shortly?

We have time only till then, Rishi

Now Sugunan must be made to talk, isn't it?

Yes

Ouch!

Oh mother!

What happened?

He hit me and took off Some rascal!

Aw, my hand

Hey! Aren't you Sugunan sir?

Just give me a hand, brother Let's go to the hospital

- Ouch my hand! - Gently, take care

- ls it still paining? - No, it's better now

Siryou are very smartly dressed Don't you wear Khadi usually?

lt is to avoid Tv Nuisance!

Look! That's the vehicle that hit me

Really?! l'll find out right now

Don't step out, you'll be recognized l'll go find out

- What's all this? - Exactly what we also want to know!

1st die, then come alive Are you the Lasser of modern times?

1st let him get over his shock Then he'll talk, our Sugunan-Lasser

Okay

We saw you being killed

We showed it to the public also No confusion about this at all!

But after some time you reappeared alive

- Public became confused - And so did we

We are not going to clearthat We are going to increase it

On the same place and rope you will swing, hanging dead

We'll shoot it very smartly and show it to the public

The public will go mad What must they believe?

l swear, l have not done anything intentionally

l really thought they were going to kill me

l did tell Manilal, about the bribe You guys flashed it, as hot news

lt was only recently Pillai sir came to know it was l who had informed

l fell at his feet, cried begging his pardon He asked me to pass 1 more info to Manilal

That a murder would happen, on behalf of Pillai sir

After l did that, he asked me to leave

But the next day...

Sugana, come with me Bharathan Pillai sir, is asking foryou

Hello, take this

What is it, sir?

What are you doing?

Leave me

What is it, sir

Stop it!

Don't harm me

Didn't l confess everything, sir?

Confession to the holy person in a church will do you good

But what's inside my chest is not a holy heart, Suguna

- Ready, sir - Lift him now

How is it? lsn't it okay?

Leave me, l say

Go, hang him!

Afteryou left they returned

Shibu, this is an antidote Make him inhale it, he'll wake up

They took me to Pillai sir's house

When people turned nasty He asked me to come out

l was only a dupe sir, a dupe of the person who was to be, actually killed

Dupe?

ln that club house there will be an actual murder

ln the same place almost in the same manner

Who? Who will it be?

l don't know, sir

But l know for sure it's on the 12th night

How do you know this?

l heard Pillai sir's assistant varghese, tell my captors...

...that they must leave the club house as soon as the deed was done

That their tickets have been booked forthe 2:00 AM train, on13th morning

That they should return, only after Pillai sir, was sworn in, as Chief Minister

Abu, go drop Suguna at the nearest hospital

- Do you know who's going to die? - No

lt's you

Pillai wants to frame us with that crime

Don't try to run and escape Even ifyou try, they won't allow you

Remember, we haven't met

We'll be there on the 12th We want to shoot that event

Go, don't be scared Nothing will happen to you

- Abu -Yes, sir

Here, ask that lawyer Manilal to meet me before noon tomorrow

He started all this, right?

Mani, l have to see you urgently Come tomorrow afternoon

- What is it? - l'll tell you

We've found a way out ofthis mess You have to stand by us

Sure

- What did you think? - Poor fellow

Yes

He's a great actor, noticed his tears without a drop of glycerin? Cheat!

We did not get him, dude Pillai threw him at us, a bait

What are you saying?

lt's the next scene in Pillai's frivolous drama

Believing his story, Renuka and l will go on 12th, to shoot the original murder

Pillai, Kartha and their boys will wait Because it is we who are going to die

Simple

Gosh! This is getting more and more complicated

lfwe remain free, they are clueless as to the extent we'd go, to prove the truth

So we have to be eliminated forever

They will make us, fugitives forever Police, government and the media

We have no option but to go to their butcher shop on 12th

This is a trap for us, as well as our only way to escape

lfwe win, we can regain all we lost As well as ensure, Pillai's political funeral

- lfyou lose? - Death

Like your usage, 'it seems' they committed suicide

On 12th we are shooting the incident, whatever the risk

Look at the irony of it

However priceless, this exclusive we shoot now is, no channel will air it!

Except for his NBl

Ours is a small channel...

...ifyou intend giving it to some gigantic one, please let me know

We don't have to trouble ourselves unnecessarily

Only l will be going, to shoot this

What if l come?

You want to sign-out, as usual Just forthat, you needn't come

This is an issue involving my credibility

l will come! Whoever objects, l'll come!

Go, let me plan this out

l have been tolerating innuendos for last 3-4 days

l don't want considerations Nor do l even expect it

You don't deserve it also

l don't need to convince you ofthat

The 1 who was supposed to be convinced, has never come forward

l am not interested in a reconciliation talk

Me too

Then?

This is a social issue which involves me too

l cannot stay away whateveryou say

This is to make you stay away from death, you...!

After all, he did have you in his heart, for some time

He is now going into the arena of death

- What? - Nothing

Tell me, Rishi What is happening?

lt's not Sugunan, who will die lt will be you and venu

Do you really want to go now?

lf l don't go after knowing this l won't exist anymore, Rishi

l thought we had time, that when l get a chance, l could explain

l expected such a chance, when l set out with him on this venture

Since that is no longer a surety...

l'll tell you the truth, l never betrayed you

That day, fearing the police when venu sent me off in the van

l was on my way to our...sorry, yourstudio

But...

Abu make it fast, its already 9:15 PM lt has to be edited and aired by 10:00 PM

Renu, be assured l'll reach you there in 15 minutes

Mani! Success! l'm on my way to the studio with the footage

Renu l know, l was there nearby

lt's all a mess now and venu has been caught by the police

Now, they'll soon be after you

Aiyo! Oh God!

l am right behind you, a black lnnova Stop and get into my car, that will be safer

- Abu, stop here - Renu, time is...?

Abu, just stop!

Get in, quick!

Mani quickly, it has to be aired at 10:00 PM

Be on Bharath vision's pay roll and get the story for NBl Channel, eh?

But l am no longeryourstaff l resigned 5 days back

We've not got any such resignation And even if there is, l've not accepted it

Mani, stop! l want to get out

He will not, because if he does this footage will go to Bharathan Pillai

Drive us to the studio, dude!

He has taken Rs 2 lakhs from us for this story

How can this become NBl's launch story?

My mistake sir, l didn't know she had committed to NBl

l will return that money today itself...sir, please!

That's all over Nothing more to discuss

Sir, but...

lt's not money alone

Once you did this story, he'd bargained and fixed senior editor's post for you

Mani, l don't want any post Get me that footage back

This will come only in NBl

lt will not

lt can come in any other channel, but never NBl

l am sitting in the chair Rishi discarded and left

How can l let this explosive story, be launched by Rishi?

Mani, for them it's channel war To me it's a question of trust and my life

Mani please, tomorrow venu and l are getting married

Sir, please!

You don't talk anymore

l will not air this without your permission

But l'll use this to make sure NBl is not born

Simple, l'll just hand this overto Pillai

NBl will remain, a dream to Rishi And venu is in police custody

l won't be able to even guess in what state, he will return

You have time till Pillai attends this call

Sir, no l beg you

Sir, it's her future that will be affected

- Hello? - ls it Bharathan Pillai?

Yes

Sir...

l became 'all alone in one single night'

With nothing left, l had only Bharath vision, as an option for survival

Renu, 5 years you have...

Oh God!

-venu must be told... - Don't, Rishi

He must not know this now He won't take me along otherwise

l know his concern, for people he cares for, please don't tell him

Okay, l won't

What is that secret meet there?

Will that she-devil betray us, in this also?

Da! Don't be so mean

Are you on her side or mine?

This is why we say you should also be there

Your cousin is risking her life for this

Convince her not to, she refuses to listen to me

venu, is there some other way out?

You tell us

Mani, let venu explain

Today is the 10th Day after tomorrow, it is12th

Only ifwe convincingly shoot our act, that we are going to die...

...Pillai and Kartha's intentions can be proved

But how and who will shoot this?

lt's impossible to shoot in the club house or surroundings

Then?

Come, l'll explain

500 meters away, that is halfa kilometer away, on top...

...ofthe pavilion, cameras with telescopic lenses, will be set up

Rishi's camera crew will operate them

Pretending to cover Sugunan's murder we will reach the club house, on 12th night

We'll get surrounded by them and a little struggle will ensue

A little action sequence by me And finally, we get caught

lf Kartha comes, we can expect a cinema style dialog

l'll have a voice recorder in my pocket

After shooting what we want you and Abu should interfere

Don't delay my friend, orwe'll never come out alive!

l agree, sir

Can l tell you what l fear?

Those who fear need not come Didn't l warn you?

Let her tell her opinion

Yes, Renu?

ln case we are not able to pull this off, Pillai and Kartha...

...will escape for ever We can't take a chance

That is what l'm also coming to, silly

- This will not be exclusive to NBl - What?

We will allow 2 more channels to shoot, without our involvement

That's why l asked, Manilal also to come

Go climb a wall!!!

lt's impossible! This is exclusive to NBl

Dude?

Don't say 'no'! l've pinned all my hopes on this and planned a lot for its success

Does our friendship have the value of, just an exclusive?

l have not gained anything with this friendship, l've only lost

- l will do this story alone, if not... - lf not...?

lf not, don't expect anything more from me

Then so be it! You are not doing this story

Abu! Start the vehicle

Rishi!

Didn't you hear me?

You can take it yourself, sir

Rishi? Please!

ls your father dead? Everybody thinks only oftheir own benefits

This is not the 1st time Abu can operate my camera

Lawyer Mani, 12th is day after tomorrow Tomorrow we set up camera at the stadium

Fix up a couple of more channels and let me know

Park it near the north ofthe stadium When it gets dark, we'll be there

Abu, don't wait, it'll take time Come only when l call you

Okay, sir

- What is it? - A mosquito

Mosquito?!

This is field limit, whatever happens don't move away from this limit

Find all possibilities and fix the limit

-venu, there's a car! - l saw it too, you useless!

Bharathan Pillai!

Rishi has cheated us lt's not what we thought, lets escape

Be quiet, girl!

venu, it will happen today!

The camera is gone Now what's the point?

Whatever happens you won't die, enough?

Without getting into trouble come with me, you shrew!

l was in a hurry to die sir So, l came here today itself

There lies your camera, how will you shoot and show it to the public now?

Call that lawyer Call Manilal

Call that lawyer!

Don't!

Take it away, there mustn't be even a small scratch on the body

They have to be hanged Not murdered but as suicide

Why do you need a binocular camera to shoot such a near event?

Not binoculars, a microscope is enough for a worm like you

What are you glaring at?

Where are your contraptions witnesses, 2-3 channels, etc?

People ready tojump to save you from death, where the hell are they?

When you sent him away l knew, you'd smelt trouble

Stop lecturing and call that punk

Pillai waves from 1.5 KM away and now hiding in the kitchen

l'll give you a sound sla-!

Why should l hide, venu?

lt's you who are still in hiding

venu, Manilal is trapped l heard his phone ringing

He's here somewhere

Lawyer, don't hide Come into the arena, you pig

Come out! lt'll be awkward only if have to see them, ever again

Son ofa mongrel!

l don't have any cinema dialog l will go away after just 1, okay?

This is not revenge, if it was l'd have had time, only for that in life

This is just a precaution! Allow me to rule and live peacefully, dude

Taking cameras into people's bedroom, bathroom and calling it media activism!

This is the only medicine for all that, okay?

2 media persons who've lost credibility and life, commit suicide

Shall l hang them, sir?

Do you have anything to say?

l don't, but she has...a sign-off After all we are going to die, right?

Go ahead! Look somewhere and say it

From the place ofevents this is Renuka with cameraman venu

More cameras?

lfthere are cameras here ask your people to bash them up

Don't panic, these are last minute tactics to escape

Hang them both!

Freeze!

- Are we on time? - Perfectly on time!

What other contraptions do you want to see?

Open your eyes wide and look!

Lights on!

See, how many cameras!

No other channel Only NBl

Because, this is an exclusive for his channel

Arrest them

Lawyer, when Rishi stormed off angrily, what did you think?

Thatwe had parted ways?

He had ajob here which needed 24 hrs

When l learnt that itwas you who had fixed up a story for her...

...at Bharath vision, l knew it was you, who was their pimp

You want to give him a couple? You can't, once we are out of here

That's not myjob

But l want to!

Excellent!

Thatwas personal

Come on, get going

Come, my girl

With 7- 8 cameras around, you signed-off looking, where there was no camera!

Smart girl! Come

Come on, say it now

This is Renuka with camera man venu

- With camera man venu? - This is Renuka, forever!
