I will catch that rat today

Listen, what's wrong with him?

Since morning, he is up to something. I'm confused

Sir, coffee

Sir...

isn't this the gate outside?

Peep and you can see it. Why sit here and view it through the camera?

You won't get it even if I explain. Now, leave

Hey! You little rat!

(If love is your weakness then you are the foolest person in the world)

- Tulasi, stand up - Sir...

7 marks out of 50!

Well done!

Looks like you aren't leaving school even after 20 years

- Now, how about this girl? - Sir

- What's this? - Deepavali crackers

Deepavali crackers?

Yes, sir

See that?

Look how much she respects this teacher

No, sir. My father asked me to distribute it to all the teachers

- You may leave - Ok, sir

Shows up with atom bomb to embarrass a teacher!

Sir, who are you? What do you want?

Where is the Head Master(HM)?

HM has stepped out. Come tomorrow

Do you know who I am?

How dare you speak to me like this?

You want me to phone the state education office?

Sir, why are you getting upset?

HM sir has gone to attend a baby's 'ear piercing' function

It'll take two hours for him to reach

Please wait there until then. Come on, sir. Let me get you a chair

- Have a seat - This is ridiculous!

- I told him the truth... - Irresponsible!

What kind of school is this?

- Sir... - Where the hell is HM?

Who set the fire over there?

Wait, I'm coming

- Sir...Sir, he'll be back soon - Irresponsible! How can he behave like this?

Who is it?

Uh-oh! 'Donald Trump' is here but why?

I'm not going for a feast to follow me! Get inside and study!

This is too much! I can't tolerate it anymore!

I want to see the HM right now!- - Sir... Sir please...

- Aiyo! Sorry, sir - Where are you eyes? Watch out!

Take it and get inside!

- Aiy-aiyo! This guy's talkingin English! - I want to see the HM right now!

He's all yours. See you

HM is on a holiday, today

I am Subramani. I'm the acting HM. Any help?

You know who I am?

Yeah! I know

"Very, very you sir!" Do you need admission for any student?

- A rat from your school... - A rat?

daily comes to my house and changes all the writing that I have been writing

- So, he's talking about a rat - And...

it spoils my whole day and my mood!

Sir, please don't mistake me

This is a school

If you're facing rat troubles at home....

then complain at your locality's Panchayath board and they will take care of it

You're a bloody bigger rat, man!

- Could it be a raccoon problem? - Are you a teacher?

Sir, I swear...

I know English but I can't understand the language you're speaking

Please talk in Tamil

Why are you tensed?

I'm the one they are looking for

What is the matter?

I'll tell you later. We must escape from here first!

Not "We" but you!

- Don't call yourself my friend! - Come on...

Friendship is as good as the love shown towards a goat that is about to be sacrificed

Stop kidding and give me some idea to escape

I'm thinking...

Make it fast!

We are catching teacher's attention!

What is it?

Give me your bag

Why?

- Just give it - What are you taking out?

Why do you need that?

Please come, sir

Sir, let's start from this class

Opening the calib... Good morning, sir

Good morning

Sir, check if the rat you're looking for, is here

No. Next

Sir, next is the 11th grade

Since the rat is not here, I'm sure it'll be in that class. Come on

Why are you in a spot, Subramani? She isn't here nor there

Sir, this is the last class. The rat is in this class for sure. It's trapped. Come on

Good morning, sir

Yay!

"As the nature sings and the swing dances to the tune of breeze"

Shanmugam...

send her to my tution centre

I'll set her straight and ensure she focuses on studies

Sir, what is a girl child going achieve after studying?

I'm sending her to school since it's nearby in the neigbourhood

Sami...

- Tighten that wheel - Ok, sir

Look here...

our duty will be over once we marry off our daughters as soon as possible

Let her be happy and have fun until then

Kamali, come here

Come and read the news for me

Daddy, are you sending me to school so that I can read the news to you?

I've been reading news to you for so long...

...that it has earned me a nickname "All India Radio - Akashavani"

Forget those jobless people who says so

Now, read it

"Central Board Secondary Education (CBSE), 12th grade results to be published today"

So, this is the reason why his highness is praying so hard

Today our CBSE 12th grade results will be published

It'll be out on the internet by 9 am

Hence, we are here to check it

The results are not even out, yet you're here with sweets?

So you are really confident

Conf...

Only those who study hard will doubt their results

We copy the answers and we've no doubts!

If we fail in this exam...

then we'll sue the publishers who published the book

So, your elder brother's result will be out today

Go, help them check their results

Please come

Vishwa, come on

I'm going to check your result first

Your hall ticket number?

First check theirs

Fine. You tell me your number

"310505"

Hey! You've passed!

Quiet obvious

Now, you

"310566"

You're also cleared!

Superb! Now, you

"310569"

Hey! You too have passed the exam!

"310289"

- Pass! - Look at that, even I passed the exam!

But how? Unbelievable!

We studied really well

Vishwa, now your turn

"310..."

"310..."

"...564"

"...564"

Visalatchi...

game over!

Hell's going to be raised in here today

Why?

Your son failed

What?

Your son failed!

Those guys came in with sweets even before knowing their results

Being the only son, I spent well and put him in a convent school in Tanjavur

But this doofus neither studies hard nor is smart enough to pass exams!

Why gift me with such a son, Lord?!

I didn't ask you to study and become an IAS officer

Get a degree to that we can proudly put next to your name in your wedding invitation

Stop drinking the coffee and think what are you going to do next!

Kamali...

Go, bring your father

He hasn't ate since morning

He is regretting as if he has failed the exams

- Go, get him - Ok

Daddy...

come, let's have out dinner

I'm not hungry, dear

But I am hungry, daddy

Come, let's eat

Fine, I'll come. Leave me

In the CBSE 12th results published today...

96% of the girls and 92% of the boys have passed

Chennai's PSK school student, Ashwin...

secured 1st rank in All India level by scoring 499/500

Now let's check out Ashwin's interview with our reporter

- Hi Ashwin - Hi

- Hi - Hi

1st rank in the national level in CBSE 12th grade! How do you feel?

I'm really very happy

And of course this is definitely a result of lot of hard work and hours of midnight oil

At this juncture I should thank my mom, teachers...

and friends for all their support and guidance

Without which I would not have been able to achieve this

Well, Ashwin you've secured the top rank in 12th grade, CBSE...

What's your future plan?

I want to get into B.Tech/ Computer Science in IIT, Madras

- Nice Ashwin. Wish you all the best

What would you like to tell your juniors at this juncture?

There's nothing new that I got to say

It's the same what he said

In order to excel...

all I did is follow him

And I encourage everyone to follow what he repeatedly told us

"Have a dream. Believe in yourself"

"Work hard..."

"and you're destined to realize your dream"

His parents are lucky to have such a son

No matter how much gold they demand in dowry...

we must marry off my grand daughter to a well educated boy like him

Had a great time with you, Ashwin. Thank you so much

Thank you

Mummy, where is my sticker Bindi?

It's right there! Look properly

I got that

Kamali, what has happened to you today?

Why are you leaving so early?

Grandma...

This is new!

Come on, grandma

Didn't you read my horoscope?

Yes. What's the matter?

What was the predicted first and last letter of the boy whom I'm going to marry?

Do you really need this when you got school?

Just like that, I want to know. Tell me, Jillu

Well, that one...

It was....

...a name that will start with letter A...

...and end with N

Superb grandma!

Bye!

There is something fishy about her today

- Hi - Come on

You look very beautiful today. What's the matter?

What's this new found shyness in you?

Are you parents looking for a groom?

Stop pulling my leg!

You're hiding something from me

Nothing like that

Stop thinking too much

Look at that

Ashiwn looks so smart and fair

He looks like a cinema star

Don't even get me started on guys from our place

Don't ponder too much

Aren't you already engaged to that Pandian? Go, romance him

Hey Akashavani, what's your problem if I drool at him?

It's not like he is your fiance or lover

Mind your own business

Get lost!

- What's your problem? - Kamali!

What's going on here?

Got to your classes!

Come, let's go

What?

- Show me! - No!

- Show me! - Silence!

Can't you be quiet?

- Show me! - Leave it!

- Give it to me! - Leave it!

Kamali!

Kamali, stand up!

Ma'am, it was her

Valli, stand up!

Ma'am she was the one

No ma'am, it was her

It was her!

Shut up!

Both of you; out of my class!

I'll finish you off!

Get lost!

Hey!

What's in it?

Please, show me

I'll tell you something but promise me you won't laugh

I won't. Tell me

I'm in love with this boy

Good for you!

I am too in love with actor Vijay

Both are not the same!

I'm sincerely and truly in love with this boy

Even my grandma told me...

it according to my horoscope in Dharma Astrology in Vaideswaran temple...

I will marry a boy whose name starts with A and ends with N

Why can't it be your uncle's son from Kumbakonam, Ashokan

First letter A and last letter N; AshokaN

Get lost!

Shouldn't have told her!

How much dowry do you think will be required to marry that fellow, Ashwin?

These boys born in city don't marry the girl of their parent's choice

They fall in love during college and...

introduce her to their parents later as their fiance

How will I reach him? I'm here and he is over there

How is my love going to workout?

Do you think he'll come here? You must go there!

Look here, you too are a bright student

You look beautiful too

Study a little harder and get good marks...

then you can also join IIT. Simple as that

Do you think I can do it?

"I can do it" attitude is what helped Edison to invent bulb...

and Graham Bell to invent telephone

Try if you think you can

Or marry the groom your parent's choose for you

First letter A and last letter N; AshokaN

Where are you off to?

I don't have time to waste. Got to study! Bye!

Mom, why are you too adding on to my woes?

I am unable to study!

Can't you grind in the flat rock instead of a mixer?

If your focus is on studies then no noise can disturb you

Close your room and study, if you really want to study

Here, stuff your ears with these cotton balls

Get lost!

Physics!

A tough one to begin with? No!

Chemistry!

This is even worse!

Present continous, present progressive

Aiyo! English!

How am I going to study all these?

Valli, Kamali on the phone

What's up?

You wanted to study but why are you wasting time calling me up?

Stop irritating, I'm already upset!

What happened?

I frisked all the book thinking it would be easy

Looks like it's going to be very tough

Do one thing. Join Subramani teacher's tuition

Him?

He roughs up his students real bad!

Pain is a part of love

Stop pulling my leg

Let's go there tomorrow. Will you join me?

Do I have a choice? We'll go

Ok

"Even if the God gives up on you"

"Even if the God gives up on you"

"Your will power can give you victory"

"Your will power can give you victory"

- Got it? - Yes, sir

You, say it

"Even if the God gives up on you! Your will power can give you pastry"

Can give you pastry?

Come here!

Show me your hands

Say it properly

"Even if the God gives up on you"

"Your will power can give you pastry"

Food is always on you mind! Does it look like I'm running a hotel?

Answer properly!

He is very harsh. No need to join his tuition class!

Do you want to join IIT or not?

So, move

Keep moving

- Did you by-heart it? - On it, sir

- Can you say it properly? - Yes, sir

Why are both the menace here?

Why are you guys here?

To join your tuition classes

Both of you?

No! Just her

Why all of a sudden?

I want to join in IIT. Hence, I must score good marks. So, I'm here

Does your father know this?

He isn't someone who is keen on educating a girl child

He knows

Looks like he has reformed

But then...

getting into IIT is very difficult

That is why she wants to join your classes

Now, how about that!?

I don't know anything about IIT coaching. I'm a history teacher

But then you teach the 12th grade, right?

Indeed but I teach history

But then you teach history for 12th grade students, right?

Yes but I teach history

Then teach her!

I don't those subjects which is why I'm teaching Thirukural here, you doofus!

You must pass two entrance exams to join IIT

Barring your 12th grade marks, the entrance marks are what matters the most

IIT entrance exam is tougher than NEET exams! Do you know?

Then what do I do, sir?

Look here...

If you really want to join IIT...

There is a coaching centre named Aparna Coaching Centre in Tanjavur

Go, join there

So you don't know to teach these subjects?

I swear I don't know

But you take history for 12th grade, right?

I'll bash you up! Mind it!

Go, farm animals instead!

Why are you showing your teeth? Did you by-heart it?

They did the same thing yesterday, fools!

- Look at him! - He'll never change!

Now, take a hike

Dude, hold it

Sir, I would like to join IIT entrance coaching class

Sir, what happened?

Why are you crying, sir?

What happened?

It's been two years since I invested 0.5 million and started this Aparna franchise

10 students came, inquired and that's it

In order to get back my investment...

I'm running this franchise teaching spoken English and computer classes

I'll surely join, sir

I can't run the institute just for you

Sir...

is there any better institute around?

Yes but then, no!

I don't get it, sir

If you really want to get an admission in IIT

There are better institutes in Trichy

Go, try over there

Sir, can't we pass the entrance without attending any coaching classes from such centres?

Good question

I'll give you a brief explanation

Listen to it and then you make a call

Every year at an all India level, more than 10 million students write the 12th grade exam

Out of that only 1.5 million brilliant students write JEE main entrance exam

That is 10% of the total

Out of that only 0.15 million students clear this entrance exam

That is 10% out of that

Only these students are eligible to write JEE advance IIT entrance

Top 10,000 which is the top 10% of that...

Only they get a seat in IIT college

Now, only 1000 out of them...

that is top 10%!

Only they get a seat in an IIT of their choice

So...

if you an admission in IIT then you must be one in a million

Can't I make it to IIT?

Even if we want to study...

there are no suitable trainers

We took birth in this rural village

Competing with the students from the city is a mission impossible

Kamali, wait

Where have you guys been roaming?

Remember you told us about the Tanjavur coaching centre? We had been there

Oh! I see

What did they say?

Don't ask us!

No one has an idea about IIT in this village of fools

In fact since no one joined for IIT entrance...

instead they are taking spoken English classes to earn their living

Why are you hell bent on joining IIT?

Love!

Well, sir... nothing... She has this new found love for IIT

Do you know...

- Where did she go? - Sir

Oh! There you are

- Do you know him? - No, sir

Dr. Arivudai Nambi

He was a great professor in Engineering colleges. Now, retired

His love for his native brought him here

Well, if he trains you...

You can make it to IIT

Do one thing

Why don't you take you father along and talk to that professor, tomorrow?

Sir, he father can't even differentiate between ITI and IIT

Taking him along won't workout

You go along with her and get it done

Is it a must that I should go?

You talk so much but aren't you interested in higher studies?

More than eating, the real happiness lies in serving others

How nicely she put across that she is bad at studies!

Look here...

I'll take you to that professor tomorrow and request him to train you

But I only want you to come. Don't bring her along

You go and serve food to the poor!

Yay!

Dad...

I have tell you something about Kamali

What is it?

Well...

What is it?

Kamali is lying about visiting Tanjavur to watch a movie

I saw her with a boy. Confront her!

Kamali!

Yes, dad?

Where were you roaming?

I went for a movie at Tanjavur

I did inform grandma about it

Which movie? Ask her dad!

Which movie?

Actor Vijay's movie

Ask her the show timing and the theater

Matinee show, Vijaya theater

She is lying

She wasn't at Vijaya theater for matinee show

But she claims she was there!

So, am I lying? I was at Vijaya theater for the matinee show!

Here's my movie ticket

Excuse me!

I asked you to pay fees for your admission in Tutorial college!

Instead you go for a movie and chill out with your friends?

Won't you change at all?

And he wants to tell on her!

You want to know where she had been to, isn't it?

I met Subramani teacher on my way

Where did you go?

Dad...

in order to write IIT entrance...

I had been to Aparna coaching centre to inquire the details

I saw you and Valli along with a boy neat Olympia centre

He was a stranger who helped us with the route to Aparna coaching centre

Subramani teacher spoke to me

He said it is very tough

Looks like you must clear entrance to get there

He said "It's Kamali's desire, let her write the exam and give it a shot"

Do you as you wish

Ok?

If you clear it, go ahead and study...

or else, as per dad's wish...

you must get married next year. Sounds good?

Ok dad!

Yay!

Where are you going for studies?

To Tanjavur?

Are you going to travel so far by bus everyday?

Oldie, not in Tanjavur but IIT in Chennai

I'll stay in a hostel and study!

Has your father gone nuts?

Why would he let a grown up girl...

I was worried if dad would accept to this

Now he has agreed to it. Spoil it and I'll finish you off

Hands off her! Stop showing off!

Are you excited that your father agreed to it?

Of course! Have no doubts

He said you may go if you clear the entrance exam

Your dad is so confident that you won't clear the entrance

Which is why, like an angel he agreed to this

You're so innocent!

So, there's such a twist in this plot?

Still I like this deal very much!

Sir...

I asked you to come at 9 'O clock

Grandma said "It's good to be early while going to meet an important person"

Being early is fine but a not a day early!

Wait, I'll come

Why do you look so different? You're unrecognizable

Too much of make up!

Looks like you applied a year full of make up for just today

Grandma said "It is important to present yourself well, while meeting an important person"

Listen...

Discipline?

Your activities are quite strange today

Nothing of that sort, sir

Don't you come in and recite your grandma's philosophies. Got it?

Keep quiet and I'll take care of everything

Wonder how I'm going to manage that Donald Trump with my English knowledge

Sitdown

It's ok, sir

Respect?

You have been acting strange since morning

Nothing of that sort, sir

Yes Subramani, what is the matter?

Well sir, this my friend's daughter

She studies in our school

She's a bright student

Well, she aims to join IIT

The funny fact is that there are no proper coaching centres around here

That's why I brought her here, to you

Stop it

Come here

- Sir - Not you. You

She is the rat!

Sir, I thing you've got it wrong

She is a very nice girl. I know her very well

No! No! It's her

How dare you appear in front of me?

Do you think I'm an idiot?

Get out!

Sir, please hear me out. That...

Mr. Subramani, before I lose my temper...

take her and get the hell out

Get out!

Fine. Let's leave

Yeah, you're spot on with all these!

So you are the rat!

You create all the ruckus and how can you be so innocent and quiet?

Sir, you were the one who asked me to keep quiet

You did a great job. Now, shut up!

Sir, sorry

Please convince him and ask him to train me

You want me to talk to that Trump again?

Look here, if I go meet him again...

he will abuse me real bad!

This won't work out for me. I shall do one thing

I shall talk to your dad...

and ask him to put you in a Teacher training or Nursing course

It's quiet easy to drive a car

Well, I put the first gear but when I release the clutch the engine turns off

Is it? It's really simple. Release the clutch slow

The steering is also very tight...

Sir, you run so much to digest the food you consume

Please take some time out and train that girl, Kamali

I thought you had a good reputation

Get lost

Professor!

Please come, have a tender coconut

Grown up children are prone to do mischievous activities

We must appreciate the good part of it. Instead, why be egoistic?

Please train Kamali

Sir...

you're well educated but instead of living such a lonely life...

if you coach that girl, you can keep yourself also occupied

Fine, ask her to come

Ok, sir

Yay!

Wait

Is it really him, who asked me to come? Or are you pushing me in to a mess?

I swear, he asked you to come. Come on

Here she is

He is upstairs. Go

Go

I said, go

What?

- I'm scared - Don't be. Just go

Sir...

The reason I asked you to come is...

because I need to apologize to you

Firstly...

For behaving too harsh with you

I should've not reacted that way

I'm sorry

Secondly...

I need to tell you...

I cannot coach you

Sorry once again

You may leave

But why, sir?

Look here, IIT is not a joke

It requires dedicated hard work

On top of all, this isn't an exam where you can study things by-heart and pass

You require a basic cleverness for this

I don't think you have it in you

And I don't want to waste my time

That... was here

You know chess?

A little bit

Sit

Smart move

Sir, check mate!

Brilliant! You trapped me

Where did you learn?

I learnt it myself

Good

What's your name?

Kamali

Come tomorrow morning at 7 'O clock

Sir, to play chess?

Your coaching starts tomorrow

Thank you, sir

JEE problems...

Chemistry, Mathematics....

Mom...

Who brought these books?

Your brother

Out of the blue he has this new found love on his sister

From did his highness get so much money?

Visalatchi!

My earring are missing!

Sorry, sir. My watch is five minutes slow

Then set your time right

You're in a race. Now time is everything

Sit

Sir, are these books enough or should I buy any other book?

These aren't books but a guide

I am here to guide you

Study this chart and come

Sir...

I know the alphabets very well

Do what I say

Ok, sir

Grandma!

Watch out! Careful! She might fall

Here, study the alphabets. You got a test tomorrow

I don't get it

Hello...

Uncle, it's me, Kamali. Where is Valli?

It's Kamali

Hello

How is the professor's class? Easy or tough?

Tough? Turns out he is a funny guy

What do you mean?

I went today morning for class and he gave me an alphabets chart

He asked me to study it and says tomorrow he'll give me a test

What? Looks like he is a crackpot

Was it for this we struggled so hard?

Now what?

Wait and watch. Tomorrow, I'll teach him a lesson

Sir, sharp 7 'O clock

Good!

So, did you study?

Yes. I studied throughout night, without sleep at all

Good. Sit down

Now, recite me the alphabets

A,B,C,D,E,F,G,H,I,J,K,L, M,N,O,P,Q,R,S,T,U,V,W,X,Y,Z

Now say it from Z to A

Z,Y,X,W,V,U,T,S,R,Q,P,O, N,M,L,K,J,I,H,G,F,E,D,C,B,A

Good. What's the first letter

A

- 26th letter - Z

17th letter?

A,B,C,D,E,F,G,H,I,J...L,M,N,O,P

Q

12th letter?

A,B,C,D,E,F,G,H,I,J,K...

Stop

Hours of learning doesn't matter...

What matters is the way you learn

Go, concentrate, study well and come back tomorrow

Go now

I'm talking to you

A for 1, B for 2, C for 3, D for 4, E for 5...

- Kamali, Valli is on the line - F for....

Hello

So, did you teach him a lesson?

How dare you disrespect a great professor like him?

What's your story? Keeps having new twists everyday!

I got to prepare for tomorrow's test. Now, hang up!

Studies and confusion go hand in hand!

I better stay alert!

A for 1, B for 2, C for 3, D for 4, E for 5...

J for 10...

She wanted me to learn alphabets yesterday and now look at her!

Are you ready?

Yes, sir

Sit

14th letter?

- N - Good!

19th letter?

- S - Very good!

Good. Ok

Sir, 557?

Right

Sir, 440

Now you understand

But you're taking a little too long

Go home, practice well and come back tomorrow

Ok, sir

Kamali

- What is it? - Valli on line

Tell her I'm not at home

Looks like she is not at home. Guess, she stepped outside

So? She is studying?

How did you guess it?

I am her friend!

Morning, sir

Did you practice well?

Sit down

There are 10 questions on the board

You got 10 minutes

You don't have to worry about all that

In the exam hall...

You'll have a question paper in your hands

There will be 90 questions in it

You'll be give 180 minutes to solve it

Two minutes to solve each question

How many out of those questions will you be able to answer correctly is what matters

All the questions will be from the subjects you got

So, don't be negligent like you were with the alphabets

You must concentrate well and study all the chapters very well

The practice again and again what you've studied

Are you wondering "Then what am I doing here?"

Only exams

Stage by stage. Chapter by chapter

Every alternate day you'll have your exams

One day exam

Next day, I'll clear your doubts

Ok, sir

Approximately there are 300 days to go for you entrance exam

So, by then you would given the exam here for almost 150 times

So, the real entrance exam...

will be your 151st exam

So, you won't have the exam fear then

You would be confident

You can do it within the time

You get what I'm saying?

Yes, sir

Now, I'm going to give you a mantra to succeed

How did you drink your tea?

In a cup

So, to taste your tea you need a cup, right?

So, to taste your success...

here's your cup!

This cup is going to be your mantra

"C"

Concentrate in your class

"U"

Understand the subjects

"P"

Practice everyday

Never, ever forget this mantra

From tomorrow your exam starts here

You can go now

Sir...

Can I have this cup for myself?

Sorry...

Can I have this mantra?

Sure

"As the heart blossoms..."

"I can feel you in my heart"

"All my thoughts, each and every day..."

No matter how much gold they demand in dowry...

we must marry off my grand daughter to a well educated boy like him

"When the love thoughts start to rain, it makes me feel shy..."

"like the water that shines on the leaves"

"The fragrance of the feather that the birds shed..."

"it's so nostalgic that it blends love into my soul"

"And I see you in my dreams..."

"where your eyes shine like the stars"

"In your heart..."

"is where I would like you be. I wish! It's all I wish!"

"Every word I read talks to me"

"And it meets my expectations every single time"

"Though we aren't around each other, I feel we are still connected"

"As the heart blossoms..."

"I can feel you in my heart"

"All my thoughts, each and every day..."

"is about you and it fulfils all my desire"

Hey! You have cleared the main entrance!

The advance will be even more tougher than the main exam

- You have to concentrate more - Ok, sir

"I can feel myself changing"

Ashwin! Come here, dear

Ashwin!

Eat first! Then you can go out and play. Come

"I'm lost in the breeze that carries the love scent"

"As I slowly become yours"

"The long roads make me more desperate"

Love you! Love you, mom!

"With tear of hapiness in my eyes, as I look at you..."

"I forget the desperation and feel re-energized"

I love you, ma!

"Even though you are so far away from me..."

"my love will find you"

"As the heart blossoms..."

"I can feel you in my heart"

"All my thoughts, each and every day..."

"is about you and it fulfils all my desire"

I got my hall ticket

JEE advance entrance

The exam centre is in Pondicherry

I'm going tomorrow with my dad

"I can hear the voice of my heart so clear"

Were you awake throughout the night?

"The flowers are blossoming on one direction..."

"but I'm running towards the opposite direction"

"Desires that fall like the lightning on the water..."

"that is what I'm yearning to catch here"

No, thanks dad. I'm getting late

- At least have this juice - Later, dad

"The day I will feel your touch..."

"is the day my dreams will come true"

"As the heart blossoms..."

In this question paper...

Excuse me, miss...

Please maintain disciple. This is the JEE advance examination

I have a small doubt with regards to the question paper

What's your doubt? You want the answer to the questions?

Sir...

Where is Kamali?

She is right next to me

I'll give the phone to her

Dear...

Nambi sir on the call

No matter what, just say you wrote the exam well. Ok?

Hello

Sir, Kamali here

How did you do the exam?

Sir, I have done it really well

Most of the questions were from the tests you had given me

Electromagnetism, wave optics from Physics

Isomerism, name theory from Chemistry

And in Mathematics...

Ok, ok... Relax

I'm sure you'd have done it well

If you secure a rank within top 1000...

then you can choose good courses in IIT, Madras

Don't think about anything until results are out

Just go chill out. Ok?

Ok, sir

Here

Why are you sporting a long face? Didn't you do your exams well?

I have done it very well

Yeah right!

What's the big deal even if she hadn't done it well?

I understand that she is acting bit crazy

But this jobless fellow? He supports her!

(Chanting mantras)

Are your results out tomorrow?

Enough. Lord Pillayar might catch cold

Don't jinx it. Just leave!

All the best

Wow! Amazing!

- Lakshmi! - Sir?

Come

Look how eagerly Kamali has set off to do her higher studies. Then there is you!

I know how eager she is and for what

Fill in the entry time

Wrote down the vehicle number?

Yes? Fresher?

- She is here to join - Yes

You'll have to travel a bit. Please wait, the campus bus will be here

Ok

A bus to travel inside the college?

Looks like you've got into a big college

Saravathi hostel

Room #308

The rooms are ok. Not bad

Honey, you sound still worried

Don't piss me off, mom. I've told you from the beginning...

that coaching centre is not good! You never listen to me

Child! They are the best coaching centre in the city

You know how much it cost me to get you there?

I know! It cost my Computer ambition

With a rank above 1000, here I am about to do my Chemical engineering

You did get a Computer seat in IIT, Guwahati for your rank

But you didn't want to go there

You're a sentimental idiot, just like your dad!

One second, mom

Mom, I'll call you later

Looks like a new trouble!

Looks like I might end up with a country girl as my roommate

I'll talk to you. Bye. Bye

Hi

- Hi - I'm Kamali

And you are?

Nethra

My dad

Hi uncle

You've achieved your dream

Sentiment!

Here

You might have lot of expenses here

Don't you worry at all

Spend as you wish

I'll deposit money every month into your account

Ok?

How about some fun?

Well, Kamali...

What rank did you get?

232nd rank

Come again

"232"

Which department?

Computer Science

My God!

I can't believe this

So, what rank did you get?

I got to take this call... So...

- Hello - Hey honey, what happened?

I'm pissed off to the core! Call me later!

Nethra, my dad's leaving

See you, dear

Bye uncle

It's a new place. So be careful

- Ok, dad - Be a good friend to a everyone

- Ok? - Ok

Study well and achieve your goals

- Ok dad, the bus is here - See you

Do call us regularly. Don't forget

Ok, daddy

I'm Nethra and you?

Your from?

I made it to IIT, Guwahati

I got computers as well there but...

- Hi Nethra - You know, right?

So, the ranking here, I like it better

I also like the infrastructure here and the faculties also

So, did you do any research about them?

Yeah

Yeah

I've already started getting a few books

I think, I'll have to leave. Bye

Why did you leave me behind?

You were not there

Fine. Starting tomorrow, let's come together

Ok

232nd rank, right?

Which coaching centre did you study in?

- Well, that... - FIITJEE or Bansal?

Resonance?

No

There are no good coaching centres in our village

A retired professor, Mr. Nambi...

He coached me

Really?

So, you started coaching from 10th standard?

No! Not at all

It was in 12th grade...

I decided I want to join IIT

Before that I wasn't much interested in studies

Henceforth, we are roommates

And so...

I'll just tell you alone my secret

I...

I'm in love with a boy

It is to meet him...

I studied hard and got into IIT

Is it?

Who's the guy?

I haven't confessed my love to him yet

Once I propose him, then I promise, I'll tell you first

He knows you?

He will know me

My God!

I can't believe this!

I love Rihanna

Do you ever listen to Indian albums?

Look at your roommate!

Nice dress

All the best

Thank you

You just said "All the best" but why did she blush for it?

There is a Cinderella story behind her blushing. Come, I'll tell you

- Excuse me - Yeah?

Can I sit there?

I'm sorry, what?

Window side

Yeah, sure

Thanks

Please stop the bus! Stop the bus!

Uh-oh! I'm running late for class!

Good morning, everybody

Welcome to IIT

My name is K.R. Srinivasan

More than one million people try and get here

But only the top 500 get to sit where you're sitting

Be proud!

You're among the best!

But that, ladies and gentlemen, is the easy part

The tough part is yet to begin

73 people were out in the first year...

because they failed in both the semesters

If you don't do well, you're out of IIT

Period!

So, from now on, don't miss classes, quizzes...

deadlines and don't miss guest lectures

And...

you never ever come late to my classes!

Sorry, sir

Get in

When you're here, you need to be here

Focused!

Is that clear?

Do I hear a yes?

Yes, sir

Good!

I like that

Now, let's get on with the subject

Today we'll talk about differential equations

And how that applies to our subject

We will take the independent...

Can I help you with something?

Are you... Are you sure?

Thank you

Ok

"An unknown breeze gently caresses me"

"I can feel love blossoming in my heart"

"If you come along and hold my hands..."

"all my shyness will fly away"

"You caught me when I was about to fall"

"You laughed when I was all teared up"

"And when I got up, you hugged me"

"With a smile that resembled mother's love"

"The heart sings the tune to the lyric of the life"

"That resulted in the dance called 'Love' "

Now, I invite Ashwin. The students coordinator

Thank you, Preethi

Good morning, everyone

"I imagined you as a friend, as a guardian..."

"I imagined you as what not, still there is a lot of imagination left"

"I'm not so brave to say those three words..."

"but the beauty lies in you saying those words to me"

"The moon in my dreams splits into small stars..."

"and you are all I see in all those stars"

"The mystery of this relationship! The unrevealed face"

"The beauty lies in them solving on its own"

"With your smartness and the macho voice..."

"and with that look of yours, you're drawing me towards you"

"Yes, you attract me towards you"

"As our shadows dance a duet..."

"That resulted in the dance called 'Love' "

"That resulted in the dance called 'Love' "

"If your eyes are the subject..."

"I would study it round the clock"

"If your words flow like the water..."

"then my heart will be the cup that will never overflow"

"I can't hear anything else as time has frozen in my world and no one's here to talk to me"

"No fragrance as there is no breeze. Well, in this dream world, I don't need to breathe"

"I experience all this in a world with you"

"I don't feel like praying because I don't feel like"

"I can't find myself"

"All I need is you to be with me forever"

"All I want is to melt in your love. That's all I need in my life. What's wrong with it?"

"You are like a thousand skies..."

which one do I step in to?"

"You tell me"

"You showered love upon me like a thousand skies"

"I've already fallen in love, will you too fall in love any soon?"

"You caught me when I was about to fall"

"You laughed when I was all teared up"

"And when I got up, you hugged me"

"With a smile that resembled mother's love"

"The heart sings the tune to the lyric of the life"

"That resulted in the dance called 'Love' "

"That resulted in the dance called 'Love' "

You should also try it

Hey, why are you laughing?

Nothing. Cinderella’s going overboard with her love activities

Who is that Cinderella?

A crackpot. I'll tell you about her later

You tell me

Before going in to the subject

I want to say 'Hello' to one VIP...

who has failed all the subjects in our class

Kamali!

Kamali, you came here with good rank

But you just don't seem to have got the hang of things

What's your problem?

Please say something. I'm asking you

She is not here to study, sir

Cinderella came in search of her prince

Do you remember what I told you in the first class?

That you don't get through IIT by messing around and roaming around

This is IIT

Do you know what you're missing?

I want you to meet me in my room after the class

You don't seem to have understood the value of this place

Get your priorities right

I hope you understand

Next time you won't get another chance

Cinderella, don't just give up

Who cares about backlogs? Love is what matters the most. All the best

So, I am that Cinderella, right?

Oh my God! It's 12:30

Order please

Coffee

It's a nice place to have coffee and a nice time as well

- This girl likes only coffees and toffees - Don't try too hard

I'll buy you a coffee

Dude...

Do you know who that girl is?

The cupex girl dude

Who cupped in all her subjects

The Cinderella of our campus

But who is this great prince?

Right now this is the million dollar question in our college

Who knows?

It could be him

It could be him or it could be you too

Definitely I'm not that joker

Hey, what are we eating?

What happened?

What's wrong?

What is it, Kamali?

What are you doing?

I'm asking you

Where are you leaving at this hour?

Kamali, please!

Your stop is here

Early to bed and early to rise must be the habit. Only then in the morning...

...you can wake up and study. Whatever you study at early morning will stay in memory

Got it?

Wandering around, doing thug activities without studying is not acceptable at all

So, focus on studies and remember what I said

- Then - A detergent soap, 100 ml coconut oil and for two rupees...

Kamali!

What's with the surprise visit?

Are you here on holidays?

You could've called at least once in a while. Are you so busy?

Well, can't blame you

You must be occupied full time in stalking Ashwin

So, did it workout? Tell me!

Shut up!

Hey! What happened?

What happened?

Any problem?

Can't you even share it with me?

You're my problem right now! Just shut up!

Visalatchi!

I told you yesterday that Kamali came in my dream and look here she comes

Hey! What's with the surprise visit?

Shouldn't I come home?

What happened to her?

- Dear - What?

Kamali has come down

She isn't talking to anyone since her arrival

Please go and check on her

Kamali

Kamali

Dear Kamali

She must be exhausted. She is in deep sleep

Look here, she is educated

If she has a problem, she'll tell us

Don't confuse yourself

Her tastebuds must have died. Cook her favourite dishes

Ok

What a disloyal world, sir

What?

Kamali has come down from Chennai. Did you know, sir?

Kamali is here. When did she come?

- It's been two days - Two days?!

- Why didn't she meet me? - Oh, come on, sir!

She didn't even bother to meet me...

I will catch her

Looks like Kamali has come down?

Yes sir

Is she still sleeping?

Wait, I'll call her, sir

Kamali...

Nambi sir is here

"Nambi sir is here"

Get lost

I should kick her first!

What's up, IITian? Is this the time to wake up?

Lazy girl! Come, let's go for a jog

Two minutes, sir

I see a change in you

I mean...

A quiet Kamali is very new to me

Welcome, Kamali. How are you?

Coffee

He cleared all the photos from the wall, hung your photo and guess what he said?

"There is no meaning to all the awards that I won until now"

"This is the real award that I've won"

"Every year I must hang more students' photo on this wall"

"I must decorate my wall with my students photos" That's what he said

Hi

We are upset with you!

Why?

Why? He keeps singing your praises all the time!

"Kamali won't do so! Kamali would've done it like this! Kamali won't take much time!"

All he says is "Kamali!" "Kamali!" "Kamali!"

You're the reason we get scoldings from him!

This bun face Uppili has taken an oath. Guess what?

What is it?

He says he'll secure at least a rank above you in the entrance

Super!

Sit

Sir, I shall leave now

Why the hurry? I thought you'd be here for couple of days

No, sir. I must leave. I have an important class tomorrow

Good! That's my girl!

See you, sir

Kids, today our subject is Organic Chemistry. Ok?

"Long ago, I was a bird"

"Living in a beautiful forest, in a small nest"

"Long ago, I was a bird"

"Feathers are my best friends and I will fly above the sky!"

"So, show me the sky!"

"Let me have that self realization!"

"So, show me the sky!"

"Let me have that self realization!"

"If love can make me fly even higher..."

"I rather prefer not to and instead I'll still fly without it"

"If love can make me fly even higher..."

"I rather prefer not to and instead I'll still fly without it"

"Failures that I never even saw in my wildest dreams..."

"became a reality and left me devastated"

"I have now lost the sense of direction..."

"So, show me the sky!"

"Let me have that self realization!"

"So, show me the sky!"

"Let me have that self realization!"

"Enough is enough and it's time to bid goodbye..."

"So goodbye my love, your dreams are no more!"

"Enough is enough and it's time to bid goodbye..."

"So goodbye my love, your dreams are no more!"

"Once again in the beautiful forest that I live in..."

"In my small nest that I reside in..."

"I now continue to live as I move on"

"Now, when there are many out there in the forest who dream to be like me"

"Many birds from the same forest that flew to glory, getting inspired by me"

"So, show me the sky!"

"Let me have that self realization!"

"So, show me the sky!"

"Let me have that self realization!"

Today we're going to revise all the gates

AND gate, the NOR gate, the OR gate and the EXOR gate

"Long ago, I was a bird"

"Living in a beautiful forest, in a small nest"

"Long ago, I was a bird"

"Here I am, ready to fly again!"

"New dreams are here to achieve and I'm daring enough to face them"

"Now, there is no one who could stop me!"

"Love lost is no more a burden"

"My eyes have dried up"

"I am not afraid to overcome my failures anymore"

"Now, I see the sky!"

"I have had my self realization!"

"Now, I see the sky!"

"I have had my self realization!"

"Now, I see the sky!"

"I have had my self realization!"

"Now, I see the sky!"

"I have had my self realization!"

I knew that you'd be here!

You don't mingle with anyone and spend all the time alone in the library!

What are you studying so hard?

Aren't you bored?

Alone? Look at all my friends around me

Albert Einstien, Alva Edison, Stephen Hawking

Good one

But not funny!

Fine, what's the matter?

We are going to Delhi!

For what?

Come with me, I'll tell you

I don't have time to roam around!

There's a lot to study

I'm not coming

- I hadn't save it - I saved it. Now, come!

Wait, my phone

What is your problem?

Just come with me, I'll tell you

Move fast!

Imagine, we both having a good time in Delhi for three days!

How?

A small test. We'll give that and it'll take us there

A test?

Don't worry. I'm thoroughly prepared

You sit next to me in the exam hall

Choose the best answer types of question. I'll show one finger and that means option A

Two fingers for B

- Three fingers means C and four fingers means... - D

Good! You got the idea

Mal practice is not my style. Just leave me alone

Nothing is wrong if we have to roam Delhi!

- Where are we going? - Just follow me

- What? - Come

What?

We'll go to the back

Quiz?!

Why would you do this to me?

Other subjects are fine

But talking in English is what makes me nervous

If I go and screw things up in such a big stage then it'll be embarrassing

Don't think too much

Ain't I here to help?

Just follow me

Good morning. Good morning, everyone

All of you know, right...

Among all of you, the best two is going to be selected to represent IIT, Madras

in the Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam memorial quiz competition to be held in New Delhi!

Right?

All the best!

Do well

Please pass it on

Wait

Ok

Follow me

Ok, time's up!

Thank you

You didn't follow my instructions at all

I guess, you must've screwed it up

You missed an excellent opportunity

Now, someone else is going to come with me

All the best!

You know, I heard that the teams are gonna be really strong this year, for the day

- Oh! Really? - I'm so excited

Who is this Kamali?

That Cinderella girl

But...I...I think there is some confusion. How is this possible?

May be one of her lucky days

I'm so worried

I think I'm gonna speak to the HODs now

Looks like you are ready to go to Delhi? With fresh, washed dress?

What do you mean?

Haven't you seen it yet?

Seen what?

The quiz results are out

Wow! Congrats!

I didn't get selected

You got selected though

Stop kidding

Look here

I'm not going

What do you mean?

Look here...

I wrote that quiz exam because you forced me to

- Oh God! - I'm not interested in all this

In all these days here, do you have any other friends except me?

Are you happy with doing back and forth between classes, hostel and library?

Going new places, connecting with new people...

It's a great opportunity to explore life more

No thanks

I... am not interested in going

Trust me! You should go!

Tell me

Are you on your train journey?

No, I'm on my way in a chariot

So, I hear you started smoking?

Who told you?

Valli?

Nothing of that sort

You better quit it or else I'll tell dad

Go ahead! Tell him!

I'll also tell on you

What are you blabbing?

Valli leaked you secret to me. I know why you joined IIT

Dear brother, Vishwa... I was just kidding

Come on, don't get serious about it

I don't want my brother's health to be affected. Hence, I advised you

So tell me, what should I get my brother, from Delhi?

Good! Attagirl!

I don't want anything

This oldie is pestering me

- Talk to her - Sure

- Kamali - Grandma

I hear we get good quality shawls and sweaters in Delhi for less price

Can you get me a few?

Sure

Ok...

Why do you sound dull, oldie?

Isn't your daughter-in-law taking care of you?

She restricts a lot on my diet in the name of diabetes and cholesterol

Give it to me

You're traveling very far. Take care, dear

Ok, mom

Are you traveling alone?

No, our professor is coming along with us

Myself and my senior, Ashwin are participating in the competition

Ashwin?

Yes

Really? Ashwin?

I said, yes!

Did you confess your love?

No

Why? This is your best chance. Don't miss it!

Stop yapping away!

Hang up! I'll call you later

Coffee! Coffee!

Coffee!

Ashwin...

Coffee?

No

Coffee!

Sir...

Coffee for you?

No

- Coffee! Coffee! - One coffee please

Clean up. Clean up

Aiyo!

Why are you screwing this up so bad?

I think you're nervous

Is it so obvious?

I'm trying hard to hide it

But I'm unable to

So...

Are you still in love with that boy?

I don't know

But...

Definitely he is my inspiration

Right

You're quite something

Did you bring any books?

I have

Here

No, thanks

Ashwin...

I know very well...

You have taken part and won in many competition

But this is my first competition

Which is why I'm so nervous

Hope you'll manage if I make some blunder

It's ok

Just...

do one thing

Read this book

Ok

I've underlined some important stuff. Just go through it. It'll help

- Ashwin... - Yeah. Yeah, I'll call you back

Sir?

Got the keys

- Let's go - Fine, sir

Who was on the call?

- Preethi, right? - Yes, sir

What do you guys talk for so long?

Sir, I can talk to her about anything under the sky

You must be missing her today, right?

Yes, sir. Of course

Let's go

Hey, Ashwin

Hey man!

Dude, don't you fall sick at all?

You turn up every year and win the cup!

I'm tired of losing to you, man!

See you, dude

Hello

Tell me

Well, I am...

at the temple

Just a minute

Dear priest...

offer prayers in the name of Vasantha

Lineage: Bharadwaj and birth star: Krithika

Ok, shall I call you back later?

Ok

Shall I help you?

No, thanks

Hey, Ashwin...

Where's Preethi?

It's one of her unlucky days

She couldn't make it

She must be very happy

She's got a relief from you, after all!

Just kidding, man!

Coffee?

Please

Thanks

Welcome

Kamali...

He is drooling over you

Don't encourage him

Good morning, folks

Warm welcome everybody to the Abdul Kalam Memorial All India IIT Quiz Championship

We're about to begin the elimination rounds to decide the four finalists

The top one in each pool will reach the finals

May I request ll the participating teams to get into the allotted halls

We would start in the next five minutes

Yes sir, we'll do it!

- All the best, do well - Alright, sure

Do well!

Thank you

- Do well. All the best, guys - Sure, we'll make it

When you don't know the correct answer, why did you press the buzzer?

Actually Ashwin, I misunderstood the question

This is why I spoke to the HOD the other day

I told him you aren't suited for this and I'd like to take Preethi along with me

But he didn't understand

Now, I'm gonna lose this competition because of you dumb, country girl

What happened, guys?

Here we go!

That was a well fought contest

And we have the best four teams

The qualified teams for the final battle are...

Yes!

- Yes! - Yes! Superb!

- Oh yes! - I'm very proud of you guys!

And...

Yes! We did it!

I was worried

Guys, we qualified

Wha... wha.. what's the problem?

Sir, actually we lost because of her

Thankfully the Bombay guys made a mistake and got negative points

That's why we are in the competition

Otherwise we would've lost

Hi Kamali

I know this guy Ashwin is always obsessed with winning and nothing else matters

Don't take it seriously

It is fine to make few mistakes

It's not the end of the world

I bet a smart girl like you shouldn't worry about what he said

Hello! Stop it

You don't have to intervene and mess things up

There is no problem between him and myself

What are you saying?

I know him very well

There is no problem here

And thanks for your advice

If someone gets wrong on the first attempt...

the remaining three teams are allowed to play a second attempt on the buzzer

But the value of the answer comes down to 10 points

So, first attempt, 20. Second attempt, 10

The negative is a constant -10

What is he saying?

Three rounds in total. Correct answer earns 20 points

Wrong answer and the team will lose 10 points

Lets begin with the first question
