Sett... George

Who is the film star in the poster?

Oh ho, he is Bheeman Raghu...

...started off as a villain, now a hero.

Sett...

Sorry.

You please switch off the phone... and hide it before entering his property...

...otherwise he will destroy it!

What sort of a man is 'Colonel'?

Sett...

...he is dependable.

Our business, our setup... how did he get to into our line?

No idea.

Could be for money!

Colonel does not know you are coming.

If I had told him he will not... allow this visit.

Damn..no idea how this will end up!

The house...

...will there be someone?

No idea.

You have come here often?

Once or twice, with supplies.

You please wait here, let me check.

-Come back fast. -okay, okay.

Slowly...turn around.

Raise your hands.

Who are you?

Sett

-From where? -Bihar.

Bihar!!! Which city?

Dhanbad.

-Who do you want to meet? -Colonel. -For what?

To give advance payment. Also bought supplies.

That is a job for Bushy... who asked you to come here?

Get out of here...

...get into your vehicle and get out.

I gave the job to Bushy... and I took it back.

I do not deal with Biharis from Dhanbad. I only deal with Bushy.

If you do not deal with me... you will not deal with Bushy anymore.

Colonel saab...

give me a second, don't do anything...oh lord!

-Did we have any agreement? -Don't you see we have an agreement...

...that is why I came to meet you.

With today's payment ...50% of the total amount due you have received.

don't we need some proof?

Sir, you do not give any visual data.

The money I have advanced you is very big.

Why don't you understand... I am also answerable to others?

Colonel... He came with me...please.

Bushy would have definitely... told you about me.

I am his buyer, his buyer is your buyer...

brother, why do you have to... treat me like an enemy?

George, you did not inform me... you were coming.

What can I do? I am helpless.

If I told you would not let me.

I am between you and Sett... neither understand my problem.

George, open that bag.

All I need is to see the crop once. Then I will get peace of mind.

George, take all this stuff inside...

and wait near the Jeep... till I come back.

Come with me.

Colonel...

...is the water good for drinking? Colonel...

...is the water good for drinking?

Why don't you drink and find out?

Nobody has seen what you... are going to see now. Follow me.

My good god.

Can I go inside? -Go ahead.

Beautiful!!!

Blueberry Skunk.

Lets go.

Can I check the THC?

As you wish.

Hey Kuttappan, got the rabbit?

My sweetest god...shows 28%.

...just two points away from a world record.

Spent my life in growing these. Lets go.

-what's the markup for you in Amsterdam? -This year zero supply from Afghanistan.

-Why? -These Americans, they sprayed weed killers. -Idiots!

So our only competition is from...

...British Columbia in Canada and California.

I am guessing we should get say about...

four hundred to five hundred thousand Euros per pound.

Hundred percent markup...

not bad!

At least the Americans did something good.

But these bloody Koreans increased our risk...

They have cloned excellent sniffer dogs... bloody dogs pick up any smell.

Bloody Koreans have nothing better to do? You tell me! They are impossible!!

All of this land...belongs to you?

No, all of this belonged to Osama Bin Laden... he left all of this to me in his will.

-When will your crops be ready? -Four to five days.

-December 1st delivery? -Agreed

1st December delivery

Thank you for your good work.

Make sure this is the last time... you are coming here.

Excuse me.

Do you know this man?

No...

I have not seen him. Why?

He is owing money to people.

No...I have not seen him at all.

You want to buy something?

I don't want anything...

but tell me, who holds big... estates in this area?

Very few, in fact one or two.

Got it, where does this road lead to?

Road ends in 3 kilometers...

...after that forest begins.

Who are the big landlords here?

Only one or two.

Who holds lot of vacant land?

Vacant land??? Who...

...ah, there is a Colonel.

Colonel?...How old is he?

He should be around fifty.

'Colonel' - is it his real name?

No...not at all.

His real name is 'Narasimha Gujral'.

I only started calling him 'Colonel'.

He reminds of an uncle of mine... /who was in the Army.

Now everyone calls him 'Colonel'.

But why do you need all this information?

I am thinking of buying... some of his land.

Really, for what?

Tea...for planting tea.

Thats a nice idea.

Floods in China destroyed all their tea... so tea prices are very high.

Afghanistan also got lots of tea estates.

Afghanistan got tea?

Oh yes, they drink lots of tea But Americans completely destroyed their crop.

Americans not good... first they destroy, then sends lot of help.

-Okay, see you later -Sure, see you around.

Hey Kuttappan, you didn't eat anything?

Whats the matter son?

Your foods lying there, you are not eating?

You have to drink water ...else you may get kidney stones.

OK...lets not watch too much TV ...it can damage your eyes.

Kuttappan patti...

KP...

You know who I miss the most right now?

-Hey, listen -Hmm, I have an idea.

-Oho...another one? -Listen, this is serious

-All right, serious... -When we have a farm house...

-can we have 5 dogs?

-come on last time you... asked for a baby elephant.

-yes, that and five dogs. -Just five...

-I thought of the names already... -yes, listen to them...

-Ninja, Daku, Mangal Singh, Slumdog... and the best one...

-what? -Kuttappan! -Ninja, Daku, Mangal Singh, Slumdog... and the best one...

-what? -Kuttappan!

Kuttappan patti...

Not better than Kuttappan patti...

She lives in Bombay...

Shall we go?

Will you like Bombay?

You guys heard the big news today?

India again has become no 1 in test cricket.

And that without any help from you girls!

Just imagine...

If they had any help we would be better than West Indies used to be...

in Vivian Richards time.

Oh, another big news...

Govinda only wants to act... in serious movies now.

And...

researchers have once again found that...

you people grow lot better with music.

So I am thinking of putting some speakers...

What sort of music would you like?

Opera?

Wagner...

We are in South India... so should it be Subbalakshmi?

Something soothing...

Its classical music...

Don't be difficult.

Then what, Shehnai?

oho...we are in Kerala...

Kerala its got to be Yesudas...

Yesudas is my man...

What was that song?

-He nearly got us that time...

...we are lucky to be alive.

This is divine intervention.

Dog...divine intervention.

No more bloody Blueberry Skunk.

Kuttappan...

We will retire...

...and go to Bombay.

You know who lives in Bombay?

You don't care!

Wait till you meet her...

You know Kuttappan... I don't ever want to do this again.

This was not a part of the plan.

Kuttappan...you have to move son.

Kuttappan, you want beef jerky?

Small bites...

Come on Kuttappan...lets go.

Durai...

-Namaskaram -Namaskaram Colonel.

What is the latest news in town?

Oh, nothing important... but I think tea prices will go up.

What? Tea price...Increase increase.

People coming...lot of people coming.

Everyone wants to grow tea.

-Earlier it was resorts, now farming. -Ah, farming.

In fact someone came here... looking for you...

with a twisted leg...limp, limp.

Who was it?

Hey...go away you fat cow. Go on...

Someone left all his money... to her in his will...

What did he say? Someone left all his money... to her in his will...

Someone left all his money... to her in his will...

Now she does not work. Simply enjoys life. Very beautiful girl!.

Her name is Malathy.

No, I am asking about that... person with the limp.

I don't know.

Is he from here? No, no..not here.

He say, he want to see someone ...who is owing money to him.

Then he says he wants... to buy some land.

He doesn't look that rich though.

-You told him about me? -I told him, he will come and see you.

-What did you tell him? -You have a lot of land which is not cultivating.

-What else? -Your name...Narasimha Gujral.

-Did you tell him where he can find my house? -I really don't know the location of your house.

I know it is nearby the forest. I don't know how he will come and see you.

Paper, pen...

My phone number.

If anybody come... you phone me.

Jesus.

After you and Sett left I had a visitor.

-Who? -Doesn't matter who.

He found me through you.

Through me? What are you saying?

Either he followed you or he... followed that stupid bloody Bihari.

-What did he want? -I did not ask him.

He wanted to take.

There are enemies. Sett has many enemies.

This is exactly why I told you... not to bring anyone here.

Colonel...I want both you and Sett.

I have not seen a good buyer like Sett. Correct payment, no problems.

He only wanted proof.

For you he is a good buyer. But he is a danger for what I do.

My buyer is your buyer...

Sett is very careful. He came to Kochi.

Stayed low for two days. He left there at 3AM.

He changed his vehicle at Pala. I picked him up at Teekoy.

We made sure that we are not followed.

I am sure nobody was behind us. I am certain.

Whatever...now they know you.

Now we don't have to worry... we need only few more days.

Listen I have spent the last one year... waiting for these few more days.

I can't afford to lose my crop... to enemies I don't have.

You go now... and wait for my message.

-Did you hear the news? -What news?

-Leopard. A Leopard was seen in this area two days ago. -Did it kill anything?

So far none.

Must be hungry. There will be... a kill in a day or two.

Be careful.

Animals don't worry me. It's the humans who are the problem.

My lord, please pardon my sins.

Even leopards do not scare him!

This work is too hard Kuttappan.

We should go somewhere.

Where should we go? Bombay??

What do you think?

You would like Bombay... but she prefers Central Bombay.

Central Bombay is not good... you know why?

Its like a jar... its here you silly dog.

Any calamity and you cant even get out.

How do you explain to a woman?

They have their own logic.

How do you explain to a woman?

Why is he back here!!!

You came back?

What did I tell you last time?

We took all precautions... no one has seen us anywhere.

Colonel, question of life and death... I need to discuss an important matter.

What do you need?

-I need your help. -What help?

I need you to keep something.

-What? -I will show you.

Jesus, save me.

What the hell?

What the hell is all this?

Please listen to me for a minute... keep her safe till harvest day, thats all.

Something wrong with your head?

-Who is she? -She is in danger.

Yes, she is in danger... you have kidnapped her.

That man who came to kill you... was sent by her father.

Her father is after me for a long time...

he wants your crop... he wants it for free.

She is our best chance till our crop is ready.

Bloody nonsense...

out of the question.

You kidnap some girl and... ask me to keep her safe!

I know how to keep my farm safe... I don't need your help.

Colonel, what you have grown is very valuable.

I have put a lot of money into your crop. We need to play this game till we harvest.

They will not look here. They are thinking she is in Bangalore.

You deal with your enemies. Don't drag me into your problems.

My enemies are now your enemies...

You are going to pay for this George.

George is innocent.

Please do this as a favor for me.. keep her for a few days.

We have only a few days for harvest... she is already sedated...

she will not know where she is... or who is keeping her.

Look here, the agreement we had is over...

you take your money back... this deal is off.

Please, only a matter of few days. Please Colonel, please reconsider.

What you worked hard for the whole year... and what I want to do with your crop...

both are in danger...

until we harvest and take the... crop out of the country.

I will increase your price.

How much?

We can discuss.

Colonel, I have very mild sedatives.

Whenever she wakes up just give an injection.

-Colonel saab, don't leave me behind... -Colonel, please.

Sett, go inside the Jeep and wait for me.

Colonel saab, please listen to me...

Colonel, what Sett did is foolish, I agree...

I could have taken her as my guest... but she will think she is kidnapped...

and it's impossible to hide her... from my family and neighbors...

and if we leave the girl with Sett he may harm her.

That will make more problems for us.

You think, just a matter of few days.

Please trust George... believe me Colonel.

I am not going to hurt you...

I have to give you this injection.

My mother is alone...

I don't have a father...

MLC from Uttarakhand.

Please don't give me that... its triple times the dose...

I know all these... Sir, I am a medical student...

Oho, did I disturb you?

You should not be present here...

Please be comfortable here.

Come on KP, help me out.

I think we need some help.

You have to wear this... on your right hand.

Give me your right hand.

I am not going to hurt you.

Just listen to me... put this on your right hand.

Don't be stupid.

Don't try to escape...

I am not going to hurt you... put it on your right hand.

What is this?

This ring will track you.

If you are more than fifty meters... away from me, I get an alert on my phone.

Don't try to break... It is silver coated steel.

It wont break.

Don't force me to use this.

-Where am I? -In my house, and stop asking questions.

Please let me explain...

I have not seen Raja Khoshiyari for twenty years.

He is not going to give you anything. He is a criminal himself.

He is your father.

He is my father but ...

what do you know about my family?

My mother was forcibly married to him.

As soon as I was born he left my mother. He has never acknowledged us.

If you feel you are going to get rich by kidnapping...

I did not kidnap you. Don't you get that in your head...

and its not for the money.

Listen...you have two options...

If you co-operate I will let you live... normally the days you are here.

But if you try to act smart...

I will be forced to use this...

and not for wounding...

understood?

There are no hospitals nearby...

so I will have to kill you.

You may say I have a... zero tolerance policy.

Close the door.

I will have to dig myself...

Do you have water?

No...beer.

-You want? -I don't drink beer.

Move aside...

Keep it...

Drink if you want...

Its good for you when you sweat a lot... replaces the bodily fluids.

Check the bag, there is stuff to eat.

Dog biscuits.

Pickled sausage, try it, very nice.

Why?

I am a vegetarian.

Vegetarian, one who eats grass.

Why? Out of religious belief? Or something else?

I was always a vegetarian.

-Do you have that bar? -Which one?

One you left in the room.

Look in the bag...check the pockets.

Give me that...

What are these pits for?

What do you think?

To bury to someone? -Yes.

Who?

Anyone who gets killed... when they try to run away.

You are studying second year?

You want to come in?

Did you think of any specialisation?

These people kill for just... looking at them the wrong way.

I am worried only about my mother.

She is all alone.

The debts, the loans we've taken... to put me through medical school...

You have any idea?

What do you want to do with me?

I am going out for a little while...

Kuttappan is watching you. Don't do anything stupid Jaya.

So I heard you like beef?

KP, a little bit, can you try?

How is it? Nice?

Don't be fussy...come on, eat.

Salad?

Dal?

Who was outside?

KAMADHENU...

-Who? - Pasu in Malayalam.

- Cow...

Are you always alone here?

Desserts?

Thank you.

I am glad you liked it

Good night Colonel.

How did she know I was called Colonel?

Kuttappan...how did she know?

I want to go.

I want to go my mother now... right now.

You can go, but not now.

-Now, I want to go now. -Not now. You cant go now.

-I want to go now!/-Not now, tomorrow evening.

Tomorrow evening my crop will be ready... I will drop you.

Don't shout. Kuttappan will get upset. He will think you are trying to attack me.

You have no idea what... my mother is going through...

I did not kidnap you. You were left here with me...

-for your own safety. -My own safety, I don't believe a word you say...

I want to go home right now... don't you dare come close I will shoot you...

You don't even know how to lift the gun.

Did you check to see if its even loaded?

What did I do wrong for you to keep me?

Raja Khoshiyari will not give you anything...

I don't need anything from him...

I am keeping you safe from... people who are trying to harm you.

Why don't you believe me... don't cry please.

I will take you back to her... I promise.

When?

Tomorrow.

My crop will be ready, after that.

Look you got to believe me... you really have no other choice.

I don't want you to get hurt... thats all.

I am taking this thing off...

and trust you wont do anything stupid.

Go to bed.

Were you serious when you said... Kuttappan will guard me?

I think I will ask him when he wakes up.

Everybody needs a chance to prove themselves.

Go to bed... don't cry anymore.

Please don't ever touch my phone again.

What were you trying, looking for password?

What did you try?

Beautiful.

Any other?

Khoobsurat.

You were close.

What was it?

Sundari.

Breakfast.

Oats, I am afraid!

-You cooked? -Yes, who else, KP cannot cook.

Enough...

You don't eat eggs... no bacon, no sausages...

so oats is the option.

Good?

Add one banana and its better...

What does KP eat?

No way he will eat oats...

What about you?

Yesterday, the beef you made was really good.

What about daal?

Look, whoever who makes good daal...

always are excellent cooks.

-Who are they? -No idea who they are!

-Oh god...why is he coming with a gun? -Namaskaram.

-We are from Teekoy Panchayat, to take census. - Kudumbasree unit.

Yesterday at Vagamon vegetable seller... Durai told us about you...

living in your farm with livestock.

Durai tried to call you...

-but he misplaced your number... rolled up that paper with potatoes for a customer.

-Durai... -We thought of not coming...

-tired with lots of walking...

roads are bad, so Jeep drivers charge a lot.

I don't think he understands Malayalam! Do you know Malayalam?

Little...

-Okay, I can speak in Hindi. -Please...

-We came for census. -yes, that much I understood.

How many people in the house? One.

I came only for a few days...

What did she say? I didn't understand anything. She came for a few days.

-What is your name? -Narasimha Gujral.

-Then who is Colonel? -Colonel, its me only, a pet name.

Do you have any ID?

Kuttappan...

-Sorry, occupation? -Retired, farming.

How many acres do you have?

Thirty.

What are your crops?

Tea, cardamom.

Animals?

One dog, one cow.

OK...thank you.

-Is that girl his daughter? -Who knows, but she is pretty. What do you think?

I think his wife is dead... I am sure it is his daughter.

-Ayesha, what do you think? -I also think so.

All this walking is so tiring... just hope to reach home.

Where are we going?

-Again to dig? -No...

-This is marijuana? -Yes.

-Is this your crop? -Yes.

-Wont the police catch you? -Right now police is the least of our problems.

Who brought me here?

Look, all I know is that you are safe here?

Can you please tell me who brought me here? I have the right to know.

This guy called Sett...

Bihari guy, you know him?

He and... That Khoshiyari bugger...

they have some problems with each other...

they are after each others blood... and so...

Sett bought you to me and asked... me to keep you safe, thats all I know.

Suppose you are some sort of insurance policy for Sett.

It is only couple of days more, don't worry. Few days, and you can go.

Where will you go? To my mother. Where else?

I am sorry.

Where will you go?

Go to the stream and fill water. We need to water the plants.

-Do you have to water every day? -Three or four times a week.

Colonel, I always wanted a small nursery.

-You want to take over mine? -Colonel, can you help me?

But I want flowers, not marijuana.

These flowers are also useful.

Beautiful too. They have other uses.

You should know that, medical student.

Hypertension, pain relief... Professor told us that.

But do you think Sett buys these for pain relief?

I heard you humming...it was good.

-Why don't you sing louder? -Why?

Plants like it, makes them happy.

-Do you sing for them? -I tried once.

Then? They almost died.

Very good.

My mother wanted to make me a singer... but I wanted to become a doctor.

When I was little all the doctors... in our colony where very rich.

So I thought I will also become a doctor.

When I told my mother...

I want to become a dentist, she went...

hey girl, you want to spend the... rest of your life...

looking at other peoples mouth? Then I just dropped the idea.

And now?

Now, I don't know if I need that much money.

Your mother is a singer?

Yes, thats how she met Khoshiyari.

Have you met your father?

Once, when I was little I met him.

We have an old photo at my house.

Was he a criminal when he met your mother?

May be. But I don't know.

Where do you live in Bombay?

Vashi, New Bombay... Do you know that area?

Why do you never answer any of my questions?

I will count to three and start running... just run behind me...

Don't look left, right or anywhere... just duck and run.

Sit...

Drink...

Wait here for me...

Language?

Marathi.

Why did you kill my dog?

Last year...

at Satara...

Bhosle...

big businessman, brewery owner...

I killed him...

but his dog attacked me...

eight stitches on my hand...

cannot use a gun for months.

But you are smart... used a dagger.

Please take out the knife.

Your rifle would not have broken... my bullet-proof vest.

You know how I found him?

Night, around 12...

I heard this little puppy...

outside my door...

Opened the door and he was outside...

that small...

Completely dishevelled, scared...

It is been with me since.

The only friend I ever had.

-Lets go. -Where?

I have to see a man called George.

Colonel, can I call my mother?

Don't tell her where you are or who you are with.

Only tell her you will be back tomorrow.

Mom...its me...

- Jaya, you did not phone for two days? - I don't know...

I will be back tomorrow... Listen to me, I am fine.

-Is George here? -Father is not here.

-Where did he go? -I don't know.

-Your mother? -Mother is not home, but grandmother is here.

-Grandma, someone is asking for mother...

My Malayalam is not very good... can you talk in Hindi?

-My Hindi is not that good! -What about English?

Father went out two days ago...

he did not come back. My mother and uncles are looking for him.

Who are you? I have not seen you.

-Business partner. -He is doing business with dad.

Whats your name?

-Colonel uncle.

Water?

-You give this to your mother when she comes back. -OK.

Don't look inside...

Study hard...

look after your mother and grand mother.

-I have a sister. -Very good, look after her also.

Jesus, he left.

-We have to leave. -What happened?

We are in danger... I was lucky up to now, but it won't last forever.

What about your crop?

Let them bloody take it.

He is smart. He is found my motorcycle.

Can't we run away? No, I have to drive him somewhere else.

Wait here for me. Can't we run away? No, I have to drive him somewhere else.

Can't we run away? No, I have to drive him somewhere else.

- Jaya...you have to leave... - Colonel...

...immediately, your life is in danger...

There is a vial of morphine... take it out quickly...

The guy who shot me is not the only one... there are others.

This bloody crop is worth more than I thought. Your life is in danger.

Jaya, you have to get out of here.

Listen to me... You know how to drive a motorcycle?

Go outside the gate, turn right behind bushes... you will find my motorcycle. Are you listening?

Just take it and go... straight to Cochin airport.

-I can't leave you like this... -Don't stop on the way for anything.

Come on, give me the injection.

When you get there... catch the first flight to Bombay.

Thats the only way... there's no other choice.

Get my bag...

When you get to Bombay... there's one more thing you have to do for me.

You have to deliver a message. Can you do that?

Give me your word... - I'll do it.

- Promise... - Tomorrow...

How can I do it tomorrow?

Just one thing I ask you for... and you can't even do that?

Open the bag.

There is some money... take it. Its for you.

Open that pocket. Take it out.

Who is this woman?

When you get to Bombay...

ask for Poornima.

Who Poornima?

Poornima is the name of the building...

in Colaba.

Fourth floor.

She'll be there.

Tell her...

I still love her.

Go.
