Here, take this money.

Please, give me an extra 20 rupees on the meter, sir.

What do you mean an extra 20? -Yes, sir.

Dad, could you please hold this bag? -Why do I have to pay you extra?

It’s okay, dad. Such a pity.

(kid moaning)

Dad!

Child?

Who is it, dear? What happened?

Here is a small child.

Go. Open the door.

Go, dear.

Dear boy? Boy?

Little one, what is your name?

Chinnu.

Who are your parents? Where do they stay?

How unfortunate! He doesn’t have a family.

What do we do?

Shall we admit him in the orphanage next to your school?

Such a pity. He’s such a young kid, dad. How can we leave him like that?

Look how cute he is.

Can we let him stay with us?

Okay, dear. It’s up to you.

Hey, Chinnu! Would you like to stay with us?

Hello...

Hello...

Karthik...

Mr Karthik...

Mr Karthik...

Mr. Karthik, hello?

Are you the one here for the interview?

Sir is on his way.

Did you see him? He was once a small journalist.

Now, he is the CEO of such a big TV channel.

Damn this life! That is what it means to be lucky.

If luck favors you, you may win a lottery. It doesn’t guarantee a great life.

Unless one is highly motivated and dedicated, they cannot be in such a position.

What are these cups doing there?

Sir, good morning. -Good morning.

-Sir? Sir. I will remove them

It’s okay. It’s okay. - Where is the dustbin?

Where is the dustbin? -Drop here, Sir.

Good.

Sir, sorry. - It’s okay, dear.

You should remove them before they accumulate.

If they become 10-20 cups, then it’s difficult, right? -Sorry, sir. Sorry.

Sir, sorry. - Cool. Cool.

Good morning, sir.

Sir, they are the ones who’ve come for the interview.

Oh?

There are no interviews being conduted for journalists.

Do you have any sensational news to share?

Sir, well... - Don’t you have any?

Then don’t waste my time. Go.

Women trafficking, drug dealing and many more illegal activities.

Very interesting news. Where is this?

It’s happening in a pub. But I will not tell you the name of the pub.

If you are okay with it, I will conduct a sting operation.

Good. All the best!

Did you place the cameras properly?

Yes, I did.

Just to be on the safe side, I also placed a camera in undergarments.

Disgusting fellow! I will never use that footage, ever.

Hey, bro! Coming!

What language is this?

What a girl! She’s touched my heart.

Your heart’s not over there. It’s here.

Hey, King of the other world!

Hey, have you seen her?

She does look familiar.

She is our house owner’s daughter.

She is no ordinary girl!

It’s none of our business. Let’s not get into that.

Let’s just finish the work we have come here for and leave.

Look at that! She’s even taking money from him. I will go and ask her!

Hey... Hey...

Arundhati! How could you stoop so low for money?

What would happen to your father if he comes to know this matter...

And what about your husband, who is in Dubai?

Tell.

He is my husband.

He came from Dubai this morning.

Damn it! You’ve ruined the entire situation.

Idiot!

Sir, please try to understand.

If I rent you the house, my son-in-law will leave my daughter for sure.

What should I do? Tell me.

Madam? Madam, please persuade him.

You, fool! Because of you, we lost the job and the house.

What’s done is done! We cannot undo the past now, Can we?

If there was a chance to change the past, I would have killed you even before you were born.

Now, tell me what we should do.

Mr. Mohan. Namaste.

He’s the Real estate agent.

Is it?

Okay, thank you so much, sir. Okay, sir.

Hey, we’ve got a place.

Okay, which area?

'INDIRA COLONY'

Go straight.

Keep going straight. Straight. - Look over there.

Take diversion? I’m always right. Take the right.

Is this a forest or a colony?

Do you think any human being would be willing to stay here?

If there is a colony that hasn’t been developed for the past 30 years, it’s this.

You go on. We have complete freedom.

Let’s go.

Where is the switch? - Why is it so dark?

Woah, what was that? You turned on the lights like it was our own house.

Does that mean you don’t own this place?

I do own this house.

It was quite cheap since I purchased it from the court. It’s practically a steal.

Hello? It’s an antique piece.

Handle with care. -Oh? An antique piece, huh?

Oh, hello?

A skeleton was found while digging beside the temple of Indira Colony.

We don’t know how far this is true.

When we look here, we can say that they found a skeleton here.

Raju, let’s go. -When will you give me my advance?

Hey! Do you want the house or not? - Who do you think is behind this? (On TV)

Here’s the advance. We will take it.

No matter who we ask, everyone seemed to be surprised.

By looking at its facial features, it looks like it could be from the ancient times of kings.

What is it? - I have some news.

This morning, two skeletons were found near the temple at Indira Colony.

Upon taking a closer look, we can surmise that one of it is male and the other female.

Zoom in.

It’s been 25 years since they died...sorry. I mean murdered.

It’s understood that they have been murdered and buried for the last 25 years.

Who are these two people? Who murdered them? If you want to know these details,

keep watching TV5 for more updates.

Who told you that you could come on the live telecast of the channel?

Do you have any sense? Just one look and you decide if they are male or female?

What if you are wrong? What will happen to my channel’s image?

Sir, one second. I have an explanation, sir.

Sir, take a look here at the pelvis area.

By this, one can tell if it’s male or female.

How did you decide it was murder?

If it was normal death, then they would have been buried either in a graveyard...

or even if it were in some other place...

they would have placed the corpses next to each other.

But, look here. They place one body over the other.

That means, someone killed them and dumped the bodies here.

Anyone with a bit of thought can come up with this analysis.

I was scared someone else would report his before us and that’s why I hurried and said this on air.

Sorry, sir. I thought our channel had to be first to report it.

I mean, sir, you told me if I had sensational news, then you would give me a job.

That is why I called it our channel. If you don’t like it, I shall leave.

It’s fine that you reported it. But now that you called it murder, how do you plan to proceed?

Who will investigate this? If something goes wrong, we will look like fools.

If you give me permission, I will investigate this and find out who murdered them, sir.

Are you sure? -Sure, sir.

Okay, then. You are in.

But on one condition.

You will have to solve this case before the police do.

I should be the first one to hear of any development you have in this case.

Any news about this case has to air on our channel first.

Sure, sir.

Okay. Then, welcome to TV5.

'INDIRA COLONY'

What happened?

You idiot! What happened to you? Are you possessed by the devil?!

Give me the money!

I don’t have the money!

If I give you the money I have, how will I feed you?!

I will hit you! -Hey, how can you raise your hand on your mother?

Give me the money! -No! No! Don’t! Oh, my god! He’s going to kill me!

Aren’t you ashamed of hitting an old lady like that?

I will hit her, she’s my mother. What business is it of yours?

How dare you hit your own mother?

Hey! Leave him! Let go! Idiot! How dare you hit my son?!

Oh, my dear! -He beat me up!

How can you laugh like that?

It’s a mother who hit me.

She is not your mother, but his.

A mother is still a mother to anyone.

One should be lucky to be beaten by one’s own mother.

I am not so fortunate. Let’s go.

He won’t change!

I guess god himself is confused.

He gave someone like him a mother and made sure I didn’t have one.

Unbeknownst to you, you have lost something.

You are going to the place you lost it.

You will face challenges. Ask that deity.

He shall turn into the smoke of the incense, and show you the way!

He shall turn into the smoke of the incense, and show you the way!

He shall turn into the smoke of the incense, and show you the way!

(Song playing on TV)

Oh no! Power cut.

There’s no money to spend. Hello? Hello, mummy?

Mummy? Hello? Hello? Damn! This signal!

A landline is better than this.

I will go get a candle. - Okay, dad.

Call the power supply office.

Hello?

Hello, is this the power supply office?

No, sorry. Wrong number.

Oh, sorry.

Hello? - Hello, is this the power supply office?

No. It’s me again.

Oh! Did I call you back again? Sorry. Sorry.

It’s okay.

It’s been two months since I have applied for the passport.

And it still hasn’t come.

It will come, my dear. Wait for another week.

Please, make sure I get it soon.

I can’t guarantee that you will get it soon. There are certain procedures we have to adhere to.

Sir, namaste. Can you update me about my passport?

It’s done, sir. You will get it in two days.

It’s not even been a week since he’s applied, how is he getting his passport so soon?

Look, dear. He brought a recommendation letter from an IPS officer.

Do this - Get a recommendation letter from an IPS or an IAS officer.

Hey! Get out of the way!

How unfortunate! He must have gotten badly hurt.

He wouldn’t be hurt by crashing into a few packet of snacks.

If you are feeling so bad, you should have said something, know?

I am a girl. How can I say that?

If you are going to be like this...

...then even if 25 years pass you by, your love story wouldn’t have made any progress.

Anyway, any news about your passport?

They want a recommendation letter, I believe.

Tell me, who will give me a recommendation letter?

It may be around 25 or 26 years since their death.

But their deaths were not natural.

This happened due to a hard substance, like a bullet, hitting them.

Look at this as well.

I feel someone must have shot them.

Very good! Super! Good job!

Thank you, sir. - What’s next?

We need to figure out how they looked before they died.

How? - Face reconstruction.

What does that mean?

Using graphics, we will reconstruct the skin around their skulls.

Like this.

Countries like the US already use such technology.

Now, we need to figure out who can do this for us.

That is what I’m asking. Who will do it?

Isn’t there Joseph in our group?

Hey, Karthisk. What’s up, man?

If I give you a photo of a skull, can you tell me what he looked like before the death?

You mean, face reconstruction?

Exactly.

It’s very difficult, bro. It’s not that easy.

If I pay you ten thousand rupees right now, then?

10K? It’s difficult, bro.

20K?

It’s difficult to do with 20 thousand, but...

Let’s finalize it at 25 grand.

By when do you need this?

ASAP

Hello?

Hello, is this Sharma uncle?

Sorry. Wrong number. • Oh?

Hey, wait. Wait. Wait.

Weren’t you the one who called when the power was out yesterday?

You are right. I can't believe the call got connected to you, again. Sorry.

It’s okay.

Hello? - Hello, is this Sharma uncle?

No. It’s me again.

Goodness! How is it that whatever number I dial, the call’s connecting to your phone?

It’s the same thing here as well. No one else calls this phone, but you.

By the way, who is this Sharma uncle?

He’s my dad’s friend. A journalist.

Wow! I am also a journalist.

Then, would you know our Sharma uncle?

There are so many Sharmas’. How would I know who’s your Sharma uncle is?

True. Anyway, it’s okay.

It’s me again.

It’s you again?!

I have some important work with him. And this phone seems to connect only to you.

What is your name? -Sujatha.

I’m Karthik. What do you do, by the way?

I’m a teacher.

Wow! Tell me what work you have with your Sharma uncle.

It’s my passport. It’s been two months since I’ve applied for it.

It still hasn’t arrived. Looks like unless someone recommends, my work won’t be done.

I already got a job in Australia.

If I don’t get my passport, it looks like I may lose that job offer as well.

I don’t know what to do.

Why is it taking two months for a passport?

If you apply on the website and link your Aadhar card to it, you would have received it within 4 days.

Website and Aadhar card? What are those things?

Don’t you know that much? You said you are a teacher.

If I don’t know those things, won’t they give me a passport?

Why won’t they? They sure will.

Do one thing. I am anyway going to the passport office tomorrow.

Meet me there. I have a friend on the inside.

If I tell him, he will make sure your passport comes to you within a week.

Really?

Yes. Shall we meet at the passport office by 10 am?

Okay, sure.

Just to be on the safe side, tell me your mobile number.

Mobile number? What’s that?

Don’t you know even this much?

Anyway, come to the passport office tomorrow. Your work will be done.

How do I recognize you?

I will wear a yellow colored salwar suit.

And you?

Blue colored shirt and ash colored jeans.

Okay then. -Bye.

You asked a boy to help you?! This is so strange.

When I spoke to him, it felt like I was talking to someone very familiar.

That’s why I asked him.

It’s sad. She seemed very innocent.

Are there any girls who don’t know what a website or a mobile is?

Look there.

True. The girls these days, spend more time online than they do at home.

I wish he would hurry. - Do you need a lift, madam?

Do people give others a lift with autos?

Sometimes they do.

let’s go.

Come on, let’s go!

Hey...! Hey... careful.

Do you have any brains?

The permitted speed limit in a colony is 40 kmph. Why are you driving at 100 kmph?

Hello, girl. We were driving at 40 kmph.

Is it?

See...

What’s the length of these scratches?

What’s the weight of the bike?

How much do you weigh?

How much does this buffalo weigh?

Buffalo? -I’ll tell you.

V equal to root squared FS/M.

See, a hundred kilometers per hour.

Hey, that day she wrote in some language. Today she is speaking in another language.

By the way, girl, what do you do?

MSc Physics.

Buddy? Isn’t her physique stunning?

I must immediately work on the chemistry between us.

Has he come?

He said he was going to be wearing jeans.

I don’t see anyone here wearing jeans.

Hey, bro. There are so many beautiful women here.

I’ll wait here. You go and come.

Didn’t she call you something earlier?

Ah, yes. She called me a buffalo.

What does a buffalo have to do with girls?

I will take care of the girls here. Take this pen drive to Joseph.

Go now!

How long is it going to take? It’s so hot here.

Yes, my legs are hurting too.

There is no place to sit here as well.

Oh goodness, guess he doesn’t want to see you wilting in this heat.

Princess... Come... Sit down.

Come!

Two juices!

No, one juice and a tea.

What? Tea for me and juice for her?

I don’t want it.

Oh goodness, look at how you blush!

Drink, my dear. Drink. Drink well and become more glamorous.

He’s taking pictures!

Excuse me, are you Sujatha?

Get on.

Hello? - Why didn’t you come?

I should be the one asking that question. Why didn’t you come?

What do you mean I didn’t come? I was waiting for so long, all by myself.

On top of that, it was so hot!

Hot?

The climate outside is so cool. And you say it’s hot?!

Cool?! Where? In America?

No, in Secunderabad.

Secunderabad? Why did you go there?

The passport office is in Secunderabad, isn’t it?

Yeah, right! The office is in Nampally.

Nampally?

Hey, is the passport office in Nampally?

The other day, we went to the PG center, right? It’s on one of the floors of that building.

Hello? Why aren’t you saying anything?

Okay. Okay. It was just a miscommunication.

Just a miscommunication?

You could have asked and found out, right?

Don’t you know that much?

My dear! Don’t scold me. I am sorry.

Tomorrow, we shall meet at the same time at the Nampally passport office.

Can I trust you? -I swear.

There is a Jamun tree in front of the passport office, right? I will wait in front of that tree.

Come there, okay?

Okay, done.

Hey, that brainiac of yours is over there.

Go and get her attention.

Go!

Okay.... So, I went that day...

Hey... Hi

do you remember me? We met yesterday. I bumped into you.

Sir, Namaste!

Happy birthday, sir.

Who told you that it was my birthday?

The new set of clothes and the party.

Once a month we have a staff get-together. You are new, right? So, you don’t know.

Where is the other guy? -My friend, sir?

He is trying to get that girl’s attention.

Tell me.

Yeah, I will tell you. One second. Just be like that.

Wow! What a stunning figure she has!

Girl, you know what? You are freaking hot!

Excuse me? What?!

Sorry, I should not have said it that way.

Sir?

Coming.

Who is that girl?

What is she to you? Even she is not our staff, I believe.

She’s my girlfriend, sir.

Oh, girlfriend?

Yes, sir.

Shruthi, dear? -Yes, daddy.

Daddy?!

Hello, mummy. Karthik is not well. I have to take him to the doctor.

Transfer money.

What is it, daddy?

Do you know who he is?

No.

Meet Mr. Karthik. Your boyfriend.

Hey, did I say it right?

Sir, please forgive me. I didn’t know that she was your daughter.

By the way, you are not married. How is it that you have a daughter?

She’s my friend’s daughter.

She is used to calling her father, ‘dad’ and me ‘daddy.’

Okay, sir. I will leave now.

This is a mango tree.

This is a tamarind tree.

This is the Jamun tree.

Karthik?

Today is holiday. No one will come today.

Go, dear.

Okay, I’ll only come. I’ll call you back. Bye.

Come... I will drop you.

Did I ask you?

You didn’t have to ask.

I could understand through your body language.

How?

Your fingers are restless.

You look tense.

You keep looking at the road over and over again.

That means you are waiting for a vehicle.

You are looking at your mobile phone in irritation.

The cab you booked hasn’t come yet.

And most importantly...

when I said I would drop you, for a second there, I saw a flicker of relief in your eyes.

Good. I’m impressed

Your bad luck. My cab is here.

Oh God!

It’s getting late, dear! Go away, dear!

Are you playing games with me?

If you couldn’t come, why couldn’t you say so?

I wasn’t there?

Today was the immersion of Lord Ganesha.

Because of the traffic jam, I walked 2kms just to meet you.

Oh, really?! The reason you couldn’t come is because of immersion of Lord Ganesha, which was two weeks ago?

Don’t tell me lies. Today was the immersion of Lord Ganesha.

Today was the immersion?

Hey! What is this?

When I asked you for rent, you gave me old thousand-rupee notes?

Antique notes. -Oh really?!

What?

Okay, you don’t know what a Metro is nor an Ola or a cab...

Hey, what is he doing?

He is talking to some girl on the phone.

Do you live in Hyderabad or in some forest?

On the phone?

That line has been disconnected a long time ago.

...if you really wanted to come, you would have surely made it!

Isn’t it still connected?

It’s not disconnected from here. It’s been disconnected from the Telephone Exchange.

It’s been 25 years!

That is the only antique piece in this house.

It doesn't work.

Take him to a hospital and get a doctor’s consultation immediately.

Here’s your money.

Do you at least watch movies?

Yeah...tomorrow, the movie ‘Abbayi Garu’ is releasing.

I am going to watch it.

What, Abbayi Garu?

The one with Venkatesh and Meena as the cast? And EVV Satyanarayana as the director?

Yes, that’s the one.

Hey, are they re-releasing the movie ‘Abbayi Garu’ tomorrow?

Hey, listen to me. That phone connection... - Just hold on!

What do you mean? Do you think I’m lying?

Do you mean to say, I’m lying? - I am telling you I was there.

The phone is disconnected.

I am telling you that I was there!

The phone is disconnected!

Yes, you are lying. You didn’t come there.

You keep insisting that you came there without doing so!

Do you think I am a fool to have waited for you for such a long time?

Why are you saying that?

Hello?

Hello?

Hello, Karthik?

Hello?

Hello?

You don’t believe me, right?

I knew this would happen.

I carved my name on that tree. If you want, you can go and check it.

What’s happened, buddy?

What are you searching for?

I am sure she was trying to make a fool of you. That is why she has changed the date on the tree.

Don’t take it to heart!

Do you understand the difference?

If it is freshly carved into the tree, it would look like this.

As the years go by, new tissue forms over it and it looks kind of embossed.

So, this was definitely done many years ago.

That means...

Is she from the year 1993?

And is that why she couldn’t meet me?

God! What’s happening?

Hello, mother?

Have you seen it? You saw my name, didn’t you?

Tell me now...

Hello? Karthik? Tell me

If you don’t mind, can I ask you a question?

Sure. Ask me.

Who is the CM of Telangana?

Telangana CM...?

Telangana CM? Do you think there is one each for Telangana, Andhra and Rayalaseema?

There is only one CM for all - K. Vijay Bhaskar Reddy.

Ah...what is today’s date?

29th. -Not like that.

Tell me with the month and year.

29th September 1993.

Is that Enough?

Or do you want me to tell you its astrological significance as well?

Hello...

It’s all true then? - Karthik, are you there?

Hello...

Hello...

You are not going to believe what I am going to say.

I don’t know why it happened or how it happened.

But... something strange is happening here.

Something strange? What is it?

Both of us are on different timelines.

Different timelines? What do you mean?

You are in 1993. And I am in your future, I mean, I’m in 2019.

What?! I am in ‘93 and you are in 2019?

At least you didn’t tell me that I was on Earth and you were on Saturn.

No. No. No. I am telling you the truth. I swear.

I understood, Karthik. You don’t want to help me.

That is why you are feeding me all nonsense that that I’m in 1993 and you are in 2019.

No. No. No. Please, listen to me.

If today’s date is the 29th, then tomorrow is the 30th, right?

If today is the 29th, then tomorrow would definitely be the 30th only.

So, since I am in your future, I will know what is going to happen tomorrow in your time, know?

If you are really in the future, then you will know.

One minute. Hold on. One minute.

Tomorrow, that is the 30th of September,

200kms away from Hyderabad, a place called Latur will have a big earthquake.

Almost 20,000 people will die.

This is the breaking news for you tomorrow.

Fine, let's see.

Earthquake? As if!

Chinnu, Come.

Sujatha! Sujatha, dear!

What happened, dad?

There was an earthquake in Latur, I believe.

So close. Around 200kms away.

Around 10,000 people have already lost their lives.

How come it was not in the papers?

It happened early in the morning, right?

So, it will come in the papers tomorrow, dear.

Hello?

Do you believe me now?

What is happening?

How did you know about the earthquake?

Simple. Because I am in the future.

Whatever happens in your time, we would be able to know it all in just a click.

We have complete data.

So, you will have to believe me.

Let’s set aside the point of me believing you. Do you believe that I am in 1993?

If it was truly you who carved the name on that tree, then yes.

I do believe it.

But, how is this possible?

I don’t know. It just happened. That’s it.

Seriously...everything is so strange, right?

There was an earthquake early this morning in Maharashtra. Did you know?

Yes, I came to know about this last night.

It came in the news this morning. How would you know about it last night?

I was just joking. Let’s go.

Did you tell her about this cross-line connection?

No. Should I?

No. Don’t do that.

If they come to know about this, then they would be eager to know what happens in the future.

Yes, if we knew the future, would there be anything exciting about life then?

So, we should not tell anyone about this. (Together)

By the way, how is the future? Is it good?

It’s very good. It’s comfortable, beautiful and a little horrible.

I wonder how I will be by then.

What’s there to wonder? You would be 50 years old.

You may have a son or daughter who will be my age.

That’s sounds right.

Do you think I will still be this beautiful at that age?

I have an idea. Meet me and I will tell you how you look.

Okay, but how?

I’m in 1993 and you are in 2019.

I can’t possibly come to 1993 but you must be there somewhere in 2019, know?

Yes, true. Then, remember today’s date.

Okay, one minute.

Tell me.

Same date. But a different year.

30th September 2019. That’s it.

Karthik, after today, 26 years from now, we are going to be meeting each other.

By the way, where do we meet?

Same old passport office, Nampally? At the same tree?

Sure.

Wait! Wait! Wait a minute! I am talking, right?

Okay, I have to go now. I will meet you this evening and I will tell you how you look.

Bye!

Okay, bye.

What did you do? Tease his daughter?

No, they want to cut down the tree, I believe.

Tree? We just laid our internet cable lines. Wait for two days before you cut it down

We can’t come back tomorrow again for this.

We have to do this today. That’s it.

Hey, can’t you wait for a day before you cut it down? -We can’t wait for a day.

He thinks if he pays us, it will not be cut down. Why won’t it?

Wait for a day before you cut it down.

You gave us Rs. 2000.

Why one day? We will wait for two days before we cut it down.

Hey, come on.

Hey, this note has a signature on it. Do you think it will valid?

You will come back again the day after, to cut down the tree, right?

If it’s not valid, I will give you another note.

Ok.

I had to use a lot of new plugins.

It was a very tough job, you know? - You took 25K for it, didn’t you?

Zoom here once.

Hello, boss?

Hello? Is this wallet yours?

Hey, bro.

Yeah, is the work complete?

These are just basic images.

It will take me another couple of days to finish it.

Hey, finish the work completely and bring it.

Ok, bro. I got to go.

See you, man. - See you, bye.

Didn’t come? Why...?

What do you think happened?

Maybe, in the past 26 years of yours, you might have forgotten me.

Or you could have misplaced the date.

Sorry, Karthik. Did I make you wait for a long time?

You don’t have to feel sorry bsecause, while waiting for you, I got something I love.

You got something you love? What is that?

They’ve gone. Thank god!

Hey! Can’t you drop me?

Why don’t you ask me to?

Let’s assume I did.

Where’s the bike?

Oh, parked in a no-parking zone?

Isn’t Romance all about breaking the rules?

Oh, really?!

What happened next?

Next? We spent some time together having fun.

Hey, why can’t you give me your number?

One second.

Oye, one second is up.

That is my number.

Find out.

Did you find out?

Not yet, but I will find out.

After you do, will you tell her that you love her?

How will you tell her?

How....

I mean, when will you tell her? How will you tell her?

Tell me. Tell me. Tell me.

By the way, what is his name?

Vasu.

No one. No one.

How did you know?

If someone is asking details of someone else’s love story, then they surely are in love.

So, what does he do, by the way?

He’s a good photographer.

He thinks I don’t notice, while he takes my pictures...

secretly.

And what do you do?

I try to pose for him well as if I don’t know what he is up to.

Even though the generation has changed, the women haven’t.

Did you tell him you like him?

I am a girl, how can I tell him that?

He runs away the moment I look at him.

I don’t how it will come to be.

We are men, right. We keep getting scared.

Then, how?

Do you want me to go and tell him?

Maybe not so directly.

Somehow make it known to him that you like him.

He will see that as a sign and then make a move.

Hey, Chinnu. See if he’s coming?

Hey! Hey, stop!

Do you have a license? -Leave me.

Park your bike on the side. Do you have the papers for the bike?

I have all the papers... please let me go. - Show us the papers.

Please... please... I need to go urgently.

Let you go, huh?

Is it your own bike? Or did you steal it from somewhere?

Come. Come. Come.

Where is your owner?

Come in, madam.

Madam. Madam. Madam, please. I am not a goon.

I swear.

My dad is a government employee, madam. We are a decent family, madam.

Let’s go.

Please, madam.

The boss is calling for you, let’s go.

He is the one...

Sir...

He’s Vasu. A good photographer.

They have a school function, I believe. Take their details down.

Oh no! I forgot my handbag.

What do we do now?

I will give you the details tomorrow. It’s okay, right?

Hey, Chinnu, do you think that dumbo understood that I love him?

Really? -Ms. Sujatha?

I think he’s come. - Ms. Sujatha?

I think you may have forgotten this, madam.

Knob head! Bag of chips!

I don’t know whether our love story will be a success or not.

Should I find out?

How will you do that?

I am in the future, right? So, I will enquire about the two of you and find out.

To do that I will need to know all your details.

Tell me, where do you live?

Do you know Indira Colony?

What do you mean, if I know? I live in the same colony.

Is it?

In that colony, there’s a road numbered 10. Do you know that?

I live on that same road.

Lane 5? -Same lane.

House number 117?

Same house!

Oh My God!

Both of us are living in the same house?!

This is crazy, man!

Well, where did I go leaving my house behind?

What’s so surprising about that?

You have been trying to get your passport, remember.

You must have got that passport and left to live abroad.

Chinnu, I believe we went abroad!

Who is Chinnu? -My sweetheart.

By the way, I made Chinnu plant a tree in front of our house. Is it still there?

Yes, it is. It’s grown up to be a big tree.

But what is the use? They are going to cut it down soon.

Oh, how sad! Chinnu, I believe they are going to cut down our plant.

Alright!

Anyway, what happened with your love story?

Nothing happened. We didn’t meet again

Maybe she’s expecting me to call her.

But, no matter how much I try, I am unable to get her number.

You said she is from a Physics background, right?

Try using Physics to get to the answer. You might find success.

Hey, it’s me.

To find out what ‘one second’ meant, it took you two days?

Two days?! It felt like two years!

What do you mean?

You are a physics girl, right? Don’t you know that much?

What is so ‘Physics’ about this?

Theory of relativity.

Theory of relativity?

How does that figure?

When the girl you like is next to you,

two years will fly by like two days.

And if she is away, two days can feel like two years.

Isn’t that what your theory of relativity says?

That is not physics... that is Insane.

Yes, I am mad about a physicist.

While digging near the temple of Indira Colony... Two skeletal remains have been found.

Today, in Indira colony park... Two skeletal remains were discovered.

Near the temple... -Near the park...

Near the temple... -Near the park...

Oh my! What happened to the tree?

What happened to the tree here?

Hey, step aside...step aside...

What happened to the tree that was here?

Tree? Was there a tree here?

Hey, just the other day, we were fighting with him about cutting down the tree!

Hey, I guess you are still high from last night’s drinking.

Where was the tree in the first place? Have you gone mad?

Get lost!

Why does he think I’m mad?

There was a tree right here.

What’s happening, man?!

Hey, there’s a signature on the note. Do you think the note is still valid?

Good morning.

Ah...

What do you mean, ‘ah’?

The tree is gone.

Tree’s gone?

What tree?

There was a tree in front of our house until yesterday.

But when I got up this morning, it was gone.

How? Did someone cut it down?

No. It’s just disappeared.

What?

I think you are still high from last night’s drinking.

Send me your location. I am coming.

Have some water.

Now tell me.

I told, Ms. Sujatha yesterday that the tree Chinnu planted, was going to be cut it down.

And now it’s gone.

Oh-ho! Who is this Sujatha in the first place?

A lady who stayed in 1993.

Oh, so, did she plant the tree?

No. She didn’t plant it. Chinnu planted a small plant in 1993.

And now it has become a tree.

If it was planted in 1993, then it would obviously grow into a tree.

What’s there to be confused about?

No... one second.

Well, I told Ms. Sujatha, in the present, that they were going to cut the tree down.

When I got up in the morning, it’s not there. It’s disappeared.

Who is this Sujatha? And who is Chinnu?

I will explain it to you from the beginning. Do you see that phone there?

That phone is disconnected. But one day, I got a call.

I answered it. I spoke.

The person on the other side was Ms. Sujatha.

I have been talking to her every day.

But after a few days, I came to know she was in 1993 and I am here in 2019.

We are both in two different timelines.

I don’t know how a disconnected phone got a call.

I don’t know how a person in 1993 is talking to me.

I’m going mad.

How can two people in two different timelines, talk to each other?

How is it possible?

Who can explain this?

Okay, only one person can solve this.

My professor.

Are you sure?

There is a possibility.

How?

If a tremendous amount of energy strikes a particular place,

then the space-time continuum could crack and something like this could happen.

Of course, it’s just a theory.

I don’t understand.

You must have heard of the time machine.

Travelling from one time to another time.

Yes, I saw it in the movies.

This is similar to that.

This telephone has experienced a crack in the space-time continuum...

and because of that, it works like a portal connecting the past and the future...

...allowing you to talk to her through this.

What about the tree disappearing?

I don’t know.

Something must have changed in the past.

I will explain it.

Please observe.

If you look at time as a river,

moving from the past to the future, then in the present we will reach this point.

The tree you saw before is in this present.

It was in this present.

Suppose, if someone obstructs this flow,

then it will change its direction and reach a new destination.

Just like how a river changes its direction if a dam’s built to obstruct its flow.

just like that, because of something changing in the past, we have now arrived at a different present.

The old present doesn’t exist anymore.

The old present has been completely erased.

There is no tree in the new present.

I remember that the tree was there, but my friend...

They don’t remember it at all.

Yes,

only you will remember it.

Because you are the reason the old present got erased.

And one very crucial thing.

Even if no one else notices it, you will know the changes made to the timeline.

But...

because of the changes in the timeline, there may be a chance that you will get confused.

My suggestion to you is, don’t ever try to change the past.

Good luck.

Oh, damn! It’s like B.Com Physics. My head is splitting.

Shall I make some coffee?

Just coffee?

Fine, I will make something for you to eat.

♪(sings a tune) ♪

Young girls look really nice when they are cooking.

Just like a mother.

Who taught you to cook?

My mother.

Did she cook well?

Why? Doesn’t your mom cook well?

If only I had a mother.

As far as I can remember, I grew up in an orphanage.

No mother. No father.

You are very lucky.

You grew up with your parents.

I am not so lucky, Karthik.

After I began to make memories, my mother died.

I don’t know where my father was or when he was going to return.

If you look at it this way, then even I am an orphan.

Karthik! Karthik!

I took the plant in front of the house and planted it at the back.

What happened?

One minute.

Is this the tree?!

Hello? Yes, it’s there!

So, if I change anything here, then the future changes, is it?

Yeah. Shall we test this again?

How?

Do one thing. Bury a box with your family’s details in front of the tree.

And we will go and see if it’s there.

Yeah, okay.

It’s crazy, isn’t?! -Yes, it is.

I have a doubt.

Had we dug here 15 minutes ago, do you think we would have found this box?

No.

We would definitely not have found it.

Because the past has just changed.

Open!

Oh, so cute! He looks very cute.

Hey, it looks like the same child in both these photos, right?

That means...

..am I the one who is being raised by her?

What does you mean? Don’t you remember anything from that time?

I don’t remember, Shruthi.

But sometimes I remember someone carrying me, playing with me and feeding me.

Because I don’t have any family, I used to think they were just dreams.

But now I know, that they were not dreams, but memories.

She is the mother who raised me, Shruthi.

Hello, Karthik...

Did you find the box?

Karthik, what happened?

Hello?

Talk to her.

Mother!

What do you mean mother, Karthik?

Hello? -Mother!

It’s me, mother. It’s me. -What happened?

Why are you talking like that...

Chinnu?

Yes, mother.

It’s me. Your Chinnu, mother.

I can’t believe it.

How is it that I got to meet you this way?

If you are Chinnu, then you should have been with us, right?

I don’t know, mother. You are not with me, mother.

I didn’t grow up with you.

Then, where did you grow up?

What happened?

I don’t know, mother.

There is only one person who can answer this.

Who?

The version of you who is in 2019.

I will find out wherever you are and I will ask you about this.

Okay.

Find out where I am urgently and tell me all the details. Understood?

How is Shruthi, doing by the way?

Shruthi? Who is Shruthi, mother?

Don’t act smart. I am referring to your physics girlfriend.

Mother.

Are you Shruthi?

Yes.

Take care for my son.

By the way, how is he, dear?

Who is it? -Your wife, darling.

Wife means...?

Talk to her once. - Hello?

Hello?

Excuses me. Thank you.

Thank you. -Yeah. Congrats.

Thank you. -All the best.

Hey, give it here. -Hold on!

Sir! Sir! Sir!

I came here first. -Please have my sweet.

I came running here. It’s very important news, sir. -Please! Please! Wait.

Why are you distributing sweets?

Sir, I found some details about my mother, sir.

Oh, good.

Sir, I was promoted as a news reporter...

Oh? Then, feed one another.

Sir? -Distribute it to each other.

Feed each other sweets.

Good.

Carry on.

Congratulations to both of you.

Hey, you. Come with me.

Idiot!

Hey, Karthik!

I will be reading the news for the first time.

I am a little tensed. I need to practice. Can you help me, please?

Shall I start? -Stop wasting time. Start now.

Welcome to TV5 crime news.

TV5 has found out how the skeletal remains, found near Indira Colony, really look.

On the 21st this month, the digging in Indira Colony park has brought to light two skeletal remains.

Hey! Hold on! Stop. Stop. What do you mean Indira Colony park?

It’s Indira Colony temple.

It’s not the temple, it’s the park. I was the one who did the live report that day.

I was the one who took the mic from your hands and reported it.

Would I know, or would you?

It’s not the park. It’s the temple.

Hey, it’s not the temple, it’s the park.

Hey, have you also lost your mind?

Shall we ask the PCR? He will play the visual. See it.

You will know.

PCR, visual, please?

Today, two skeletal remains were found in Indira colony park.

They both have been murdered.

Park?

Temple...

Park..?

Even if no one notices it, you will know the changes in the timeline.

Only you will remember it.

Because you are the reason for the old past to be erased.

Did you see it? Isn’t that the park?

Okay, okay. My fault.

I was confused and said something.

You read.

TV5 has traced the faces of the skeletons found at the park, before they died.

We can see those faces now.

What are the photos I sent you? And what are you playing?

You can’t do anything right!

What are you doing? - Hey! Hey! Karthik?!

Who sent you these photos? - Your friend, Joseph.

What happened, Karthik?

Sir, he’s playing the wrong pictures.

I will show you the correct ones, sir. One second.

Sir, these are the original pictures.

Aren’t these the same ones Joseph sent?

There has been some mistake somewhere. One minute.

What happened to him today?

Yeah, bro?

Hey, you drunkard! What pictures did you send?!

Sorry, sir. One second.

Send me the pictures you showed me the other day.

Sure, man.

Here, sir. They are coming.

Here, sir. I will show you the correct pictures.

See, sir. Here are the original photos.

Sir, why is it showing my mother’s photo? How can my mother be dead, sir?

There’s been some mistake somewhere.

The photo has changed. Mother!

My suggestion to you is, don’t ever try to change the past.

Does this mean, my mother is dead?

Did I change anything in the past?

Does that mean... mother died because of me?

Who said that she isn’t there?

Hasn’t she been talking to you everyday?

The one who is talking to me is my mother from the past.

For us, that is the past. For her, it’s the future.

So, if we can find out when she is going to die in the future, maybe... we can save her.

See, when they can change the position of the plant in 1993...

Hasn’t the position of the tree in the present changed?

In the same way, if we can change the situation that caused your mother’s death in the past...

..then maybe, we can save her in the present.

Give that some thought.

First, search and see if you can find any details related to her.

I went to the passport office.

I found that a passport on my mother’s name was never issued.

When I went to the High School, I could not find any details about my mother.

Who will tell me the details regarding my mother?

What are you searching for?

Well, I am looking for your villain.

There, he’s come.

He’s not a villain. Hero.

Mother?

How much? - Two for one rupee.

Won’t you give me one for two rupees?

No. I will only give you two for one rupee.

Okay, give me one.

Chinnu!

Where is Chinnu?

Let's go and look there for him.

Mother?!

Mother?!

Mother!

Mother!

Mother! Mother!

Mother! Mother!

Mother!

Chinnu?!

Mother!

Mother!

Chinnu... I am coming.

Mother!

Mother!

Mother!

Chinnu! Chinnu! Stay there.

Mother! Mother!

Mother! -Chinnu!

Mother!

Mother!

Mother!

Mother!

Get up.

Careful.

Chinnu?

Chinnu, why did you go there?

Mother, scary man! Scary man!

Who? -Scary man!

Scary man!

Mother... -Scary man!

Mother, scary man!

How could you just go off like that without any regard for safety?

What if something happened to you?

I will make sure nothing happens to you, darling.

Don’t worry.

I am not worried about me! I am still alive! - But you...

What?

Why did you stop short of saying, I am alive?

Did...did something happen to me?

No, nothing like that, mother.

I am just asking you to be careful. That’s it.

No. You are hiding something from me. Tell me the truth.

Hello? Chinnu?

what happened, darling? -They murdered you, mother.

They brutally murdered you.

Who?!

I don’t know.

Someone who came for me must have killed you.

Mother, please don’t keep me with you.

Leave me somewhere far away. At least then you will be safe.

How can I leave you?! Don’t talk so foolishly.

Whatever has to happen will happen. You don’t worry about it.

Mother, I will find out what happened.

But I will need some details from you.

I will make sure nothing happens to you.

The man who came to kill me... who is he? How does he look?

I didn’t see him properly.

Is there anyone else who knows all the details about you?

Ah, Geeta. My close friend. She will know.

Tell me the details.

Okay, mother.

Mother, please be careful. Do not go out alone.

Passport office. Post office. Voters list.

I didn’t get any of her details in these.

So better search on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram

I’ll handle LinkedIn. Let’s find her.

Okay. -Okay.

Karthik, since it’s a common name,

it’s difficult to identify her. How do we proceed?

Search by location.

Okay.

I am not able to find her on Instagram.

You have the school name, right. Use that to search.

I got 1800 IDs.

800, guys.

1500. - I got 1200.

1200 + 1500 + 800 + 1800.

In total, there are 5,300 IDs.

Even if you take 5 mins to check one id, to check each one of them it will take you 26,500 minutes!

That means, 442 hours.

Even if you waste so many hours and still don’t get the ID. What would you do then?

Of course, if we are lucky, we can find it.

But try to find another way.

Apart from IDs, what other is there?

There are two ways to find a person.

One, we go searching for that person.

Or, you make that person seek us out and come to us.

Why will they come searching for us, sir?

If they have the brains they will come.

Do you have your mother’s original photo with you?

Yes, I do, sir. -Telecast it in the news.

Somebody may recognize her.

The ones who recognize her may come searching for you.

All the best. - Thank you, sir.

The skeletal remains found in Indira Colony are creating a lot of interest.

After performing a face reconstruction on them, we came to know that one of them is Sujatha.

She may have been approximately 25 years of age, at the time of her death.

If there is anyone who knows her, they can call our channel immediately.

Karthik, I think I got her.

Yes, definitely her.

How can you be so sure?

She is over 50 years in age.

She is from the colony that my mother mentioned.

And the most important thing is that her daughter’s nickname is Aishu.

Her real name is Sujatha.

So, it’s definitely her.

Search for the number. - Okay.

Mom? Mom?!

Hello?

Geetha, aunty?

Who is this?

It’s me, aunty. Chinnu.

Chinnu?!

Geetha aunty? -Chinnu?!

Yes, aunty.

Hey, Aishu, look who has come!

Come in.

Sit down.

Hey, Aishu!

This is my daughter, Aishu.

He’s Chinnu.

Hi. -Hi.

Who is she?

Don't you understand yet? -Brother and his lover.

Look at this brother. Isn’t it nice?

This guy was supposed to be born to me.

I guess he was in a hurry and was born elsewhere.

Isn't it right, Chinnu?

She loved only two people in her life.

One was Vasu. And the other was you.

She suddenly disappeared.

I don’t know what happened to her.

I don’t know where she went.

I searched for a lot.

When I saw the news, I came to know she died.

Who could have wanted to kill her?

Do you suspect anyone?

One day, we all went to an exhibition.

Someone there tried to kill you.

That day, when I looked at the photos, I saw a man looking angrily at you.

I suspect that both of them could be the same person.

Aunty, do you have that photo with you?!

I do.

I think it’s in the car.

Enough. Enough.

Where is Sugar?

There....There it is!

Hey, this is Sugar. -No, it’s salt.

I am telling you, it’s sugar. Let me put it. Leave it!

If my mother comes to know, she will kill me!

Aunty won’t say anything.

Hasn’t it been a while since aunty left?

Yes, it’s been a while. -Yes, it’s been a while.

I will go and have a look.

Oye, clean this up.

Karthik!

Aunty! Aunty! Aunty!

What happened, aunty?

Come this way. Careful. Slowly.

Aunty, what happened? Aunty?! - Photo! Photo! Photo!

Photo!

Aunty, one minute.

Hey!

Karthik!

Aunty!

Aunty! Aunty?! Aunty?!

Nothing will happen to you, aunty.

Aunty! Nothing will happen to you, aunty.

Aunty! Nothing will happen. Five minutes, aunty.

We’ll go to the hospital, aunty! Aunty!

Do you suspect anyone? - Nothing like that, sir.

Do you have any enemies? -Who will hate my wife, sir?

One thing is for certain.

Somebody is following me.

There is some link between the ones who attacked me in the exhibition that day, and the ones today.

Who would want me dead?

Chinnu, when you came home to us that night, what happened, dear?

Chinnu, what happened, darling?

We know that there were skeletons found while digging around the Temple of Indira Colony.

We found two skeletal remains while digging around in Indira Colony park.

The skeletons were found near the temple.

Hey, what is all this?

Mother asked me to help get her passport.

We came to know that we were on different timelines.

We did a facial reconstruction of the skulls found there.

With regards to mother’s love for Vasu...

What is all this?

I gave my mother some advice on her relationship with Vasu.

We came to know that both of us are living in the same house.

I came to know that I am Chinnu.

The faces that were reconstructed, changed.

Whenever something changes in the past, it changes the future.

The faces that were reconstructed, changed.

I came to know, I am Chinnu.

We figured out that the both of us are living in the same house.

Giving advice to mother regarding her love for Vasu...

Do you want me to go and tell him?

Do something that will make him see that you like him. He will see that and make his move.

Yes! Everything completely changed from here on.

From here up until here... There were no changes.

So, the skeletons are definitely near the temple.

Hey, let’s go.

Hey, Raju! Come! -Yeah, coming!

What happened?

Hey, tell me what happened?

Hey, what’s happening? What happened?

Hey, what is this?

Hey, we have to dig here. Go get the shovel.

Do we have to dig here?

You wrote some nonsense at home. You brought me here.

Now you are asking me to dig?!

What happened to you?! I don’t understand anything!

Hey, I don’t have the energy to explain all this to you now.

My mother is talking to me from the year 1993.

I have a small hope that, if I do all this, I may find my mother.

As far as I can remember, I didn’t have anyone else but you in my life.

Please help me.

Hey, I didn’t understand a word you said.

But since you said it was for your mother, I will do anything for that.

Hey, do you understand what you are doing? Why dig it up and then cover it up again?

The investigation should not happen now.

It should take place in 1993.

I will ask my mother to inform the police about this.

If they investigate this then, we will know the details now.

Two bodies were found in the Indira Colony temple.

Corpses?

We are still conducting the enquiry, sir.

Excuse me. -Yes?

Where can I find all the newspapers for the year 1993?

Wow, 1993?

They must be somewhere in the storeroom.

Check if this is what you are looking for?

Yes! This is it!

A rich girl and a poor man eloped.

Do you need any other reason other than this?

I don’t need the reasons. I want to know who they are.

Who killed them? That’s all I want to know.

26 years? Rs. 26,000/-

You know your math well.

Hey, 402!

There is a case from the ‘90s called Lakshmi and Venkat.

Go and search for it.

Back then, we burnt all the solved cases.

If your case remained unsolved, then you may find it.

Note this address down.

No one will be there at that address now.

They have demolished it. Even if you go, it’s a waste.

Lakshmi... Venkat. The whole story starts from there, mother.

I will give you their addresses. Find out if they have any enemies, mother.

I will go to their college to make enquiries.

Do you think I am a detective or a police officer?

I don’t think I can do all this. Why get into all this trouble?

I will take you and...

Father and I, will take you and go somewhere far away.

Is there a guarantee that they won’t come searching for us?

If not now, then he will kill us another time, mother.

There is no other way. They haven’t forgotten the issue yet.

They’ve killed Geetha aunty as well, mother.

Oh god! They’ve killed her too?

Mother, that is the reason why, If all of us have to be together in our new future, this is the only way.

Please understand, mother.

Okay, tell me the address.

Could you please tell me where is address is?

If they studied in 1993, that means it was 26 years ago.

It’s difficult. You may not get those details now.

Sir, please. Try somehow. It’s very important.

We have digitalized all data 15 years ago.

There will not be any details available before that.

Even if we search, we will not be able to find them. It’s a waste of time. Please go away.

Thank you, sir.

Hey, if they celebrated their golden jubilee in 2018,

they would have had a Silver Jubilee, 25 years ago, in 1993, right?

True, but we don’t know if they celebrated.

Hey, I will go and find out. - Hey! Buddy!

Sir, did this college celebrate its Silver Jubilee function?

Silver Jubilee? -yes.

They celebrated it in a grand manner. I remember that the CM also visited.

Do you have any magazines or photos related to the event?

I doubt if we have magazines.

But you may find the photos in the Library.

Who are you looking for?

Is this Mr. Venkat’s house?

Tell me, what’s your business with Mr. Venkat?

Friend.

Friend?! Whose friend?!

I mean, I am a friend’s friend.

Where?

Hi...High School. -High School...?

We studied together since we were kids.

Who is this High School friend?

I mean, it’s my friend’s wedding. -Wedding?

Where is the wedding card?!

Who is it?

Don’t know. She’s come for Venkat.

What do you want, dear?

N. Venkat.

Our fellow is V. Venkat.

Sorry.

I think she is from Lakshmi’s gang. I think she’s here to enquire about him.

No matter who knows, you don’t tell them anything. -No matter what they ask.

You never know what they will do with him.

Sir, do you know who he is?

He’s my best friend Venkat!

25 years ago, someone killed him.

How did you find his photo?

I found it looking for my mother.

Can you tell me who killed him, sir?

In those days, they thought he eloped with a girl called Lakshmi.

We thought Lakshmi’s parents were the ones who killed him.

We only came to know later that even they didn’t know anything about it.

We tried very hard, but we couldn’t find him.

Now I am beginning to trust you completely. I am sure you will find them.

I am beginning to believe that you are the only one who can find him.

Any reporters here?

Sir?

This is my friend Venkat. Someone killed him and Karthik’s mother.

Help Karthik in every manner possible, with regards to this matter.

We have to catch the culprits.

Do you know why I paused for ten minutes in between cutting the arteries of both your hands?

So that the pain from this hand doesn’t get mixed up with that hand.

I hope you understood, what a sadist I am.

Only one question. Tell me the truth.

Where is the boy?

Take pity, please. He’s just a little boy. Please let him go.

Tell me... I will kill you.

Does it hurt?

Let’s go to the doctor. One minute.

Sit down.

Careful.

Sujatha, who was that man?

Why did he attack you?

He...

I don’t know.

Sujatha, if your dad sees these injuries, he may get worried.

If he asks, tell him it was an accident.

Hello? Mom?

Chinnu, you asked me to go to that Venkat Lakshmi’s house, right?

When I was returning, someone tried to kill me.

Mom, can you recognize him?

No, Chinnu. He had a monkey cap on him.

If Vasu hadn’t shown up on time, I don’t know what would have happened to me.

Mom, you said Vasu takes photos of you secretly, right?

Did he take photos at the exhibition as well?

Well.... Go to Vasu, take those pictures and send them to me.

Why do you need those now?

I have a feeling we will find the man we are looking for in them.

Please make sure you take the photos from him and send them to me somehow.

Okay.

This is our last hope.

You took pictures of me at the exhibition, right?

No, I mean...I didn’t...

Show them.

Okay.

Not this.

Not even this one.

Actually...

Go on.

Okay.

These...

Do you want to say something to me?

Ah, no. Nothing like that!

If you want to say something to me, I am ready to hear it.

Don’t you have the guts to tell me?

I will be waiting for you at 6 o’clock this evening at the park.

If you want to tell me something, then come and tell me today.

I am not sure if you will see me again.

Bye.

(Chants)

Today is my mother’s birthday.

Mom said that on this very same day, aunty went missing in the evening.

And she has always felt sad on her birthday.

She used to refuse to celebrate her birthday.

I thought I would convince mom have a big celebration for her birthday.

But mom...

Do you mean, from this day on Sujatha aunty goes missing?

Do you know the place or time?

It’s okay.

Tie it properly on the top.

Okay, brother.

It shouldn’t come undone.

Careful. You might fall!

I don’t know who it is. I don’t know where he lives. I don’t know where to search for him.

But one thing is for sure.

If he murdered Geetha aunty, then he’s somewhere close by.

By what Aishu said, my mother will die in a day’s time.

I am scared I will not be able to find out for sure.

Everything has come to a dead end.

What happened, dear? -Mother! Scary man!

Mother! Scary man!

Mother! Scary man!

Mother! Scary man!

Mother! Scary man!

Mom, please. Call me. Please, mom.

Does that mean if I change something here, the future will change as well?

Yes!

I have seen him somewhere...

Where?

Hey, coffee.

Hello, boss.

Hey, come on. -Where to?!

Excuse me, I need the CCTV footage of this. Where can I find it?

You will find it in Security Solutions at Panjagutta.

Sorry, we cannot give this to private people.

Bro, I am a journalist.

Journalist? Where from?

TV5.

Thanks, bro. Area?

Cafe Melange, Film Nagar.

10th October, 2019. 4.50 pm in the evening, bro.

Interior cameras are not working.

Shit!

What about the exterior?

Zoom in on the car’s number plate.

Zoom in. Zoom in. Zoom in.

Can’t see it.

Shit, man!

Bro, can we find out what areas that car travelled?

We can only cover the areas where our CC Cameras are located at.

Please, can you find out? -Sure.

Bro, not there. Look here. See that red mark. That is our car.

Look.

Can you check and tell me if the car was there one day before the date I gave you?

Ok, done.

It’s there.

The next day.

It’s there - The next day?

Shall I do one thing? Shall I tell you if it’s still there today?

Please...

Bro.

Yes!

What is that area?

What do you want?!

What do you want?!

No! No! What do you want?!

Doesn’t this feel like something you’ve done this and seen this before?

What do you want?!

Simple question.

When, where and how did you kill this woman?

Tell me.

Let’s go.

You go. I will come in a while.

Today’s my birthday.

Won’t you come?

I asked Vasu to come to the park. I will meet him and come.

You go, okay?

Looks like today is finally the day you guys confess your feelings for each other, huh?

Yes. Bye. -Okay, bye.

What happened?

Hey, wait.

I am here now, right?

Okay, now you tell me.

What do I tell you?

You have the guts to hug me but don’t you have the guts to tell me?

Tell me.

I...

Love...

Love...

Yes! I’m coming. Who is it?

I am coming. Please wait!

Who are you?

Why don’t you tell me when I am asking you?!

Why do you have a gun in your hand? What do you want?! Tell me!

I am asking you!

Hey! Where is the boy?!

Tell me! Hey! Where is the boy?!

Tell me! Where did you keep the boy?!

Boy...

I told you everything.

Please spare me.

Please....

Will you kill me?

Don’t worry, I won’t kill you now.

You murdered them in 1993.

So, I will kill you in 1993.

You didn’t understand that, right?

You’ve lost something you are not even aware of!

You will face challenges!

Ask that deity! He will show you the way like the holy smoke.

God has given me an opportunity to correct the mistakes god made.

Did the incense show you the way?

26 years ago, on this very same day, lightning struck and the temple collapsed.

In place of that temple, this temple was built.

Because of what happened then, every year on this day, they perform a fire ritual.

Fools.

In the evening, at 6 o’clock, the Church bell Strikes and then the lightning strikes.

Both happened at the same time.

They both are Gods.

Both are the same.

Go, go. Your mother is calling you.

Go, go, go, go.

Go.

Dad, I am going to meet Geetha.

Take care of Chinnu, dad.

Instead of waiting, why can’t you call her?

Every time, she was the one who rang me.

Even if I want to dial her number...

I don’t want to risk breaking the rhythm and lose the connection to her.

If you go by what he said, then mother dies at 6 o’clock.

We have another hour and a half. Hey, call her!

I am scared.

Why are you scared? If not now, you can never call her again in your life.

Call her!

You attend to the phone. I’ll go check.

What is this? No matter which number I dial, it’s connecting to you.

Hello? Hello? Mom?! - Chinnu?

Mom?

Chinnu?

Mom, today is Geetha aunty’s birthday, right? • Yes.

You are going to meet Geetha aunty, right? • Yes

Are you going to meet Vasu at the park later?

How do you know this? - I came to know everything, mom.

I saw the photo that you put inside the phone.

So do you know who that man is, dear?

Yes, mom.

Not just that. Today was the day he killed you.

Don’t worry, mom.

You can change your own future. -How?

He was behind you when you met Geetha aunty.

When you went to meet Vasu, he killed both of you.

Thank god. Doesn’t that mean, if I don’t go to Geetha aunty’s house, it would be enough, right?

If not then, he may attack you some other time.

There is no guarantee that you will escape him then.

If you don’t want all this to happen, there is only one way, mother.

What is that?

You have to kill him.

Me?

I don’t mean you. God has shown us a way.

How?

This evening, at 6 o’clock sharp, when the church bells are ringing...

at the 6th bell, lightning strikes the temple in our colony.

If you can make sure he’s there at that exact time when the lightning strikes, it’s enough.

He will be buried along with the temple.

How sad. How can we kill a man?

I can’t do it. By the way, we now know who that man is, don’t we?

We can be careful now. Okay?

Okay, mom!

I am not sure how time will change. He killed you then. He may kill me now.

Oh no! You?

It’s okay, mom. At least you will be alive.

Okay, fine. Whatever happens, let it happen.

For me, you are important.

Yes!

We’ll do as you say.

Mom, please be careful.

Hey, Raju! Raju! What happened?

Hey, he ran away.

Hey, get up. Let’s go to the hospital first.

Hey, get up. -Leave me be. First, go and catch him!

Go! Catch him! -Okay, take care!

Dad?!

Is he your dad?

Yes. Why are you chasing after my dad?

What happened Karthik?

Let’s go.

You can go... I'll come later.

Today is my birthday. Won’t you come?

I asked Vasu to meet me at the temple at 6 o’clock sharp this evening.

I will come later. You go.

Today is the day you guys confess your feelings for each other, huh?

Yes, right. Bye.

Why are you feeling bad, Karthik?

I should be feeling bad that such a man is my father.

That is not what bothers me, Shruthi.

If the plan I told my mother is a success, then your father will die in 1993.

That means in the new present, you will not exist.

You wouldn’t even be born.

I don’t care if I don’t even take birth. I don’t want to be born to such a man as his daughter.

No, Shruthi. I want you and I want my mother, too.

I want you both.

What should we do now...?

What should we do now...?

What should we do now...?

Wouldn’t it be enough to stop mother from going to Geetha aunty’s house?

Yes, I will stop that.

Hello?

Hey, Shruthi! -Hey, Karthik! What are you doing?!

Even if you let him go now, he’s going to kill your mother later.

I will take care of that.

First, I will have to stop my mother from going to the temple.

Please try to understand.

Please, let me speak! Let me speak!

What? Are you shocked?

Why will I be shocked? I know it was you.

But I still wanted to give you the benefit of doubt.

How did you figure it out?

When I told you about Venkat, you asked me to find out who killed Venkat and my mother.

Someone killed him and Karthick’s mother.

Except for me and the killer, no one else knows the fact that the same man killed the both of them.

Then, how did you know this?

Not just that. Narayana, at the coffee shop.

Geetha aunty’s murder.

All of this can be done only by a person who knows my every move and follows me around.

I should be the first one to know about every development.

What is all this, daddy?

Simple, I loved one girl.

She said no to me and eloped with my friend.

My ego hurt.

What do these girls think?

They just want to happily settle down in life. He was a good-for-nothing fellow.

I have a lot of money. I have studied well.

I was the college topper.

That Venkat is an orphan.

My dad was the one who took care of him.

He educated him. But he didn’t want to study.

Nincompoop.

I loved Lakshmi as my life.

How can she refuse someone who loves her like I do and fall for him?

How can I bear it, if she married him and 24/7 parades around the house as his wife?

That is why I told your father about it.

I got both of them killed.

But this happened a good 26 years ago. I thought this matter was buried.

But you dug it up. I was furious!

I wanted to get you killed.

But I thought for a second and wanted to find out how many people knew about this.

I knew that through you,

your Geetha aunty might also come to know about this.

That’s why I killed her.

You are the only one left now.

Oh, sorry. You too.

I trusted you more than I did my father, daddy.

Please, daddy, stop this here.

I am like your daughter, daddy.

Don’t you have even the tiniest bit of love and affection?

I am an unmarried man.

How will I know anything about affection, dear?

Step aside.

Shruthi!

Shruthi!

Shruthi!

Shruthi, get up! Shruthi, get up!

Shruthi, nothing will happen to you!

Shruthi, nothing will happen to you!

Your love is great.

If I had found such love,

all these murders would not have happened.

Mother?!

Chinnu?

Mother?

Mother?

No!

No!

So many people think about their past and wish they could change it somehow.

But, changing the past is impossible.

But in my case, my past is going to change.

But I am unsure how it’s going to change.

Oh my! Where is Chinnu?!

Chinnu?! Chinnu?!

Chinnu?

Mom?

It’s Geetha aunty.

Hi, aunty. What’s up?

How many times do I have to call you to come here?

I don’t know if I am lucky or not.

But I do remember what happened in the two timelines.

But this present is so much better than that one

Mom and dad. A lovely sister. And grandfather.

Do you remember him? My friend Raju.

Even though time has changed, he hasn’t changed a bit.

I got everything I wanted. Even more than what I wanted.

But my Shruthi. I couldn’t find her yet.

I don’t even know if she took birth yet.

Yet, I still search for her every day.

Hey! Hey! It’s a girl! Stop! -Hey!

Do you have any brains?

The permitted speed limit in a residential area is 40 kmph.

But you are speeding at 100 kmph.
