'Ethakovil Andipatti'

You are my only hope this year

Give me the collection without the lucky draw

That can't be done

We are old hands at this

How can I give it without the draw?

Get the money from whoever wins this time

Day after is the draw What if you win it?

Wait for a while

'Abracadabra'

'Jee boom baa! Wake up, uncle'

Abracadabra...!

Uncle, drink your tea

Let go, uncle

You are stinking

Didn't you go to school?

Don't come anywhere near my school hereafter, okay?

I am teased by everybody in school

Why...?

Like your father, do you also think it is beneath your dignity?

One little kissy for me and I won't come

Fat hopes! Try catching me

- You think I can't? - I always stand 1st in sports

- Didn't see you past 3 draws - I had gone out

(giggles)

My dear girl...wait

Abracadabra! Freeze like a statue

Look how my magic works

'Clean bowled, huh?'

How much is the chicken?

This is a rooster!

'- 8th pot of water - Write it down'

Hey! Why are you standing here?

Don't you know innocent young girls live here?

Wait

Hey! Hold this

Give it to your mother

If he says I'll get the amount only when I win the draw...

...how long should I wait for that?

I haven't paid my son's fees

Let us see who wins in the lucky draw tomorrow

Don't know what to do I'm going through a rough patch

Drink up

People visit the temple and pray diligently

But they don't give this temple cow even half a trough of water!

You call this 'idli'?

8 years since we got married

Don't even know to make soft 'idlis'

If I throw this at you, your head will split into two

I ground the batter till it was fluffy

As if I don't know how well you do a job!

Won't your brother Durai behave himself?

Do I need to break his knee?

I'll lose my temper one day soon

Then I'll end up amputating his limbs

Bro-in-law, slept upstairs, huh? Looks like you just came in

Taste the 'idlis' your sister has made Soft as petals it seems!

What a family I chose to marry into!

I got fooled by her complexion

Hey! Take care of your husband's needs

Looking at some damn program

Don't simply yell at me

Food won't digest if you scream

Then I must admit you in a hospital

My blessed fate!

Stepping out to collect debts, huh?

Listen, your son's behavior is absolutely atrocious

Put him in place

If you turn a blind eye things will turn ugly

Get lost!

As if he has done something out of the ordinary?

Pouncing on him Go, do your work

Looks like you're hell-bent in sending us behind bars

'Attend to your work'

Can't you behave yourself?

Mummy, don't listen to random people

Half the people who gossip won't even be alive 5 years later

In your dreams you'll be fine!

There's someone to even tend to the cows

Remember there isn't a single person defending you in this house

- You're there for me, mummy - For how long?

How much longer...?

Your brothers are rude and forever sulking

What if they all gang up and do something to you, huh?

What can they do?

Will they finish me off?

Then who will go to jail?

Listen, ma

I won't rest till all of them drink poison and die

Get lost, you whacko!

Get a job you are ideally qualified for

- Hey! Stop - What...?

He's wearing my new shirt, ma

He's your older brother after all

Oh yes! A fine brother he is

Real bother!

Sir, we always start with a half

Even if you moan and drink you don't cross a quarter?

- You are a fool - Me, sir?

Fool of the first order!

India has listed alcohol under food and beverages

So should you be a glutton?

No, I won't

Can you stuff 50 'idlis' atone go?

Won't your liver be ruined?

You need to have control

A little of what you just said went into my pea-brain

Tell me, sir

Do you know the best intoxicant in the world?

What, sir?

To drink and be in your senses

But you don't follow your own theory Looks like you are creating a scene

That's performance

Like the actors in films

It's like that I was acting

Bro, give me Rs 68

Rs 68

You know my house, right?

- Collect it from my house - Why should I?

WhY Can't you?

- Milkman delivers at home - Yes, sir

- Newspaperman also - Yes, sir

Even bankers go home to collect their loans

Can't you go home for this teeny weeny starter?

Come here, brother

Go to my house

You'll find a clean shaven chap in white, like a polar bear

That's my bro-in-law

Tell him, 'Dharma sir came to my hotel'

Had a couple of drinks

Ordered marinated intestine as appetizer as well

He'll gladly pay you Add your tips too

This has become a habit

Pay up or you will out a sorry figure

He is such a big officer

How dare you embarrass him like this?

Won't he pay if he had cash on him?

His pockets are empty

'If you insist on him paying for the intestine, I'll fish yours out!'

'Mannerless fellow!'

How was my act?

How can you hit a worker in my presence?

1st apologize to that intestine-bro!

Okay, let's call a truce

You take this medicine regularly

Morning and evening before food

Okay

Most important, you can't smoke when you are on this dosage

If you do, you'll croak

Do you get it?

By the way

I heard you have invested in my brothers' chit fund

You poor soul!

They didn't spare you either

Am I a poor soul?!

Uncle, you know I speak only the truth, right?

Uncle

How did you trust them and invest Rs 50,000 in a chit fund?

My entire set of siblings and uncles plan like a villain at night

You might lose your money

Be on your guard

Is it a deathwatch, wake or what?

Wake up!

How are you? English son-in-law?

Aunt

- How are you? - I'm doing good

Pumping water?

You pump water and booze into you at dawn!

You are teasing me

Can a doctor become a patient? What is this, son-in-law?

My dear aunts, forget the fact I'm a patient

Make sure you don't end up as debtors!

Did they lend you money for your son's college fees?

- No - My brother's won't

What are you talking about?

Sister-in-law, I am sharing my pearls of wisdom, truth as it is

What is he saying?

They are planning to escape in the middle of the night

- What nonsense! - Don't start a panic attack

Aunt

Hello

Respected people of this village

Chit fund investors, take out your money before Deepavali festival

They plan to escape one night all of a sudden

Don't come to me later lamenting you lost money

Don't come to me later lamenting you lost money

I can't help you because I don't have money flow

- Why is he saying this? - He's piss drunk!

Whatever it is talk to me I know I can convince you

'Keep your hands off me'

I told you so Did you listen?

I've carried you as a kid

Forgot all that, huh?

'What audacity!'

'Raising your hands? Is this a new habit?'

I was on the way to the library They dragged me here

Ask them about it

If we let him out 2 more days he'll turn all the investors against us

Shut up Fraud...!

Ma, if we let him go out we'll be bankrupt

- Get inside - Don't bully him

- Acting over smart? - What the hell?

I'll create such a ruckus

Ma, you're responsible for all this

- You go in first - Ma, don't go

What are you saying?

What will you do?

You had better tell mother

Hey Bhima...!

Don't beat him

Ladies, go inside

How can they thrash him like this?

Why are you coming behind me?

Only the women were asked to go in

Are you a female?

Go check what's happening there

'Bhima, what you are doing is legally wrong'

Let go of me

Told you to let go of me

What...?

Remove the shirt

Take off the shirt?

Oh! You mean your shirt?

Take it, I don't want any of your belongings

Ask him to take off his pant

Why do you need the pant?

Have you built a swimming pool for me to swim in there?

Hey, remove your shirt and pant

Take your damn pant

'If anyone tries to open the door...'

'...I'll make mincemeat out of him for sure!'

Hey, it is so stuffy Not even a fan in here

Yov! Bro-in-law

Let me know your bloody scheming plans

What is your plan?

'Hey! Bhimarasu'

Planning to commit suicide by consuming poison?

Or intend killing me with poison?

'- Tell me and then disappear - What temerity!'

'My dear henpecked bro-in-law'

Yov! World's best ass-kisser!

Freebie fellow! Find out and let me know

They knocked him down and locked him up

But I am put to shame, huh?

Such a disgrace!

Forget it

You must be used to it by now

Don't magnify it

Mummy, how can you call yourself my mother?

They have stripped me and locked me up

Is this Andaman jail or what?

Entire family will be in jail if I complain to the Human Rights Commission

Why are you screaming, nutcase?

In your mission to disgrace them you are demeaning yourself

Listen, you better be calm

The old man in the next road has passed away

All the bigwigs in and around our village are attending the funeral

That grandpa is no more?

Shouldn't I pay my last respects?

If you come out, the folks inside will pay you their last respects!

Have you also given up on me?

Carry on, mummy

Roja?'

'Please come here'

What, uncle?

'What's up? You seem to be so happy?'

They played music on the speaker So we were asked to go home

'Really. . .? That's great'

'When I was inside...'

'someone shut the door by mistake'

'You're a big magician'

'Can you wave your magic wand and open the door for me?'

'What happened? Forgot the magic words?'

Okay, done

Abracadabra, please open the door

'ls the magic working, my dear?'

Just hold on

Magic has worked You can come out

'You are a whizz kid'

'Go and watch your favorite TV show'

Okay

What are you doing inside?

'I am repairing the motor'

Oh! Okay

'Who is this standing ever so glamorously?'

Looks like a girl?

Maybe fought with her husband and walked out in a huff?

Stupid female! She has come straight here from the bathroom

How unfair!

These scoundrels are still alive

But you passed away ahead of them

Take her inside

Ma, let's leave this place

(song from 'Oli vilakku')

Stop...stop..stop!

How can you sing a film song?

- Won't you sing your own song? - Who wants to listen to that?

All that is fine

Why have you made those artistes sit in that corner?

They are 'Thappattam' drummers who play when the corpse is taken to the cemetery

'Thappattam' means wrong beat Is that what you mean?

- Watch your words - Respect m respect

Hello, master

Bhimarasu, why is the boy behaving like this now?

After all the old man was rich He's spoiling for a fight, take him home

- Who named you 'Thappaltam? - Our villagers

You are the right beat Play now

You are the right beat Play now

Mr Country bumpkin singer, come

Clear out

Drag him out of here

- Let go of me - Take him away

Take your hands off!

'Bro, do you know what he did?'

He asked the bank officer if he was a flesh-peddler?

He asked the barber to tonsure his head claiming his mother passed away

What will people think of us?

How can we live here with our dignity intact?

Bro, will you do it or shall we?

He goes around telling all the villagers we'll loot their money, can you beat that?

What's happening?

I must feed the chicken

What are you looking for, ma?

Don't know where I kept the measuring cup

Bro, call constable uncle

Let's finish the job!

If he acts smart, chop and bury him

I'll accept the blame

Can't bear this disgrace any longer

Hey! What do you mean?

I thought you'll threaten him

You want to finish him off for good?

Looks like marrying you was my biggest mistake

Your family has decided unanimously to make me eat gruel in jail!

'Marrying to preserve the family bond doesn't mean life time bondage!'

Stop sweeping for a while

- Hello, Bhimarasu? - Uncle

Dharma's actions are just not right at all

We've lost our respect and dignity

'- We'll lose our business too - What happened?'

With this anger mounting up they might do something

Hey, be patient

How do you expect us to be patient?

You mentioned a man's leg being crushed in Theni bus stand

Just do that for us

That was punishment in our times for chaps beyond reform and criminals

All that can't be done now

It will become another case

'Do you get it?'

There is another option I'll come in person and explain

Ma?

Is that food for your son?

He hasn't eaten a morsel since this morning

I'm taking this porridge for him

Poor thing! Let him eat

Chitra, go with her

Duraim?

Dharmadurai

Did I ask you for jewelry or a house of my own?

I can't bear to watch my son being beaten up black and blue

Go away somewhere

Wherever your heart takes you

A place where you think you'll be happy

Go there and live happily

Come back after 6 months or a year

Everything will change for the better

Instead of gobbling it in one go

Mix it well and eat, okay?

'Akka', even you are ignoring me?

They are planning to do something awful to you

- Why do you buy trouble? - Forget that

- Why do you buy trouble? - Forget that

'ls the 'idli' hot?'

'Akka', let the sun rise I will handle that too'

'Okay...?'

How can they be scared of these specimens?

What's wrong with my mother? Asking me to mix properly and eat

As if I don't have teeth to chew!

Why aren't you sleeping in your room, bro?

Hey! I had stacked my ironed clothes on this mat

You threw them away?

One track mind! It's all fine over there

Ages since I slept next to mother That's why I came

'Ma, slept next to you when I was a kid'

'Decades now!'

'Ma, don't go in the middle of the night to drink water and fall down'

'Whatever it is, wake me up'

ok, ma?'

"I don't exist without my mother"

"How can anyone be born without her?“

"I have a mother I am proud of absolutely"

"Always in all ways she protects me"

"I don't exist without my mother"

Did you hear his song, bro?

He's trying to get into her good books

Don't ever under estimate him

What does he gain by singing?

He can only eat 'idli' and lie on his stomach

We will deal with him in the morning, sleep now

Good night

'Uncle...?'

Abracadabra...sleep, uncle

Abracadabra...go to sleep, uncle

"Godspeed, my precious child"

"Prince of fields spread wide"

"Struggle to change and crush lofty mountains to dust"

“To carry out a deed glorious why look at time auspicious?"

"For an upbeat heartbeat every direction is east“

"Godspeed, my brave darling“

"Prince of fields flourishing“

"Struggle to change and crush lofty mountains to dust"

"if river Vaigai walks carefree green earth will spread her saree“

"if you walk, brave hero in open fields grains grow"

"Let each of your steps be a stride of success"

"Lord Shiva, open your 3rd eye aglow Son, victory lies ahead for you"

"Godspeed, my righteous child Prince of fields spread wide"

Where are we going, sir?

We have to admit a patient in the hospital

- When can I go off duty? - After the job is done

Let me go early, sir Oil level is low in the van

As if your van will turn into an Ambassador by filling oil

Drive carefully

This is why I don't accept to drive for your department

Sir, why were you suspended?

You don't question me Focus on your driving

Baby, come here Pick up a slip from this

'Wonder who will be the lucky winner'

'Where did it disappear?'

Sahadeva, check if Durai is in that motor room

Hey! What's happening?

He isn't there, bro

The cash bag is missing

What the hell?

This is where I left the bag

Bro, my clothes are missing

Is that important now?

Rs 8,00,000 is missing!

What do you mean the money is missing?

Last night I didn't even step out to pee

Don't accuse me

Hey! Did anyone ask you anything?

Why are you digging your own grave?

Who slept in that room last night?

I usually sleep in that room

Last night I slept next to mother

When I was asleep he must have pinched the money

'Akka', where is mother?

She's in the kitchen

What happened?

What is the matter?

Uncle, did you see anything?

He took even Rs 5000 from my shirt

I've been telling you so often not to leave your shirt outside

Did you listen to me?

Hey, shut up!

You say your clothes are missing

He claims the money is missing

And you say the man himself is missing

What a performance!

Dharma told me from day 1 you are all frauds of the 1st order

You've stashed it somewhere and your act can win an Oscar!

Watch your words, I say

Already I had a bad experience

I believed her and gave you the money You are as bad as that fraudster

ls 8,00,000 a small amount?

They are trying to rob us of our money

(Uproar)

What is that ruckus?

- I can hear raised voices - Let me check

'You have to repay my share It is for my son's education'

'You thought you can cheat me?'

'Will you prosper in life?'

(raised voices)

'How dare you interrupt me!'

'I need the money Somehow get it for me'

You know who I am, right?

So...get down

'We have lost all our savingsi

Wait, if you scream will you get your money?

Have we absconded?

VVait...wait

'What will I do now?'

Dharma ran away with the chit fund money

Okay, go and get dressed

Go

Listen, lady

He isn't a stranger you don't know from Adam

Do you understand?

Don't scream

I take responsibility for your money

Trust me

Don't worry Don't shout

No one will deprive you of what is rightfully yours

Hey, you keep quiet I'm talking to them, right?

Listen to me

Madam, please listen to me

You have to pay us back

The house, all their stuff and the people are surely enough

You will get your money back for sure

People who trust me go back home

Those who don't, stay right here We'll come back with the money

Let's go

'Madurai'

'Just like my mother said I was happy and relaxed here'

'Though I was from a poor, illiterate family This college has made me a doctor'

'Our gang was always intent on being 'ripe' with knowledge'

'So we were called 'Fruit' gang'

'Subhashini, Stella, Kavitha KesavamSelvaraj and l...'

'...all 6 of us wanted to become doctors of repute'

Hassan, stop your atrocities

- Atrocitiesm? - Won't you change?

First year students are our friends

You think these boys are our friends?

Get to know them

You can get friendly

Prevent ragging

Abolish ragging

Get lost Smart Alecs!

Only if we get rid of you this college will prosper

Say 'no' to ragging

'We are what we are thanks to our prof Dr Kamaraj'

All of us wish to get educated, find a good job and be well settled

'But many do not wish to earn the honest way, preferring short cuts'

'This is the biggest problem we are facing in our country'

If every citizen is duly conscious...

...he or she can earn

But only hassle it may be slightly less

Like the farmers who earn in this country

lam from a village

This is the only truth I have learnt from life's experiences

In this world one who removes pain from our body is God Almighty

You possess that strength

If you don't succumb to a luxurious life style...

...you can also become God!

I am not here to teach you

But to learn along with you

What happened to you?

You've been scrutinizing your face and figure repeatedly?

What happened?

Nothing

Hey Stella! What happened?

Dharma, lift her

Go...go...go

Go...give us way

Quick...quick

Move...move

Why did you faint all of a sudden?

Didn't you sleep well?

What happened?

Sir, she keeps looking at herself in the mirror ever so often

I think she is scared of something

It's common for 2nd year students to face this problem

If it's only a 2nd year syndrome, nothing to worry

Our job is to only find the disease

To get terrified we suffer from all those diseases is the biggest blunder

DO you get it?

Then who will cure the patient or give them courage?

When I was in 2nd year...

...I tried pulling the hair from my eyebrow

I actually plucked 1 strand!

I got the shock of my life thinking I was suffering from leprosy!

How did you admit her in Casualty?

Sir, Dharma carried her

Is that right?

- Where are you from? - Theni district, Ethakovil

- From a village? - Yes, sir

No wonder you carried her effortlessly like a bundle of grass

To carry a patient, a doctor needs to be strong

I think I'll propose to him

You fainted

He carried you as a friend

You call that love?

How ridiculous, Stella?

There were so many students But he was the one who lifted me

How do you explain that?

You'll get a solid whack from me

Right time!

Right time!

- Has the class started? - Yes

My God!

What happened?

'How can he strike out my heart?'

'Is it some random heart?'

'It's my own heart I drew with so much love'

'How could he?'

'So...

'What is your plan now?'

'l intend asking him why'

'And right now'

'Don't confront him now Ask him tomorrow'

What are you doing?

Watch your step You might fall down

- Listen to me - Someone might come now

Wait

Where are you off to?

If you have the guts follow me

I'm actor Ajith's fan

Whatever it is I'll ask face to face

I agree, you are gutsy

But whatever it is, let's ask him in the class tomorrow

Good girl, right?

Let's go

Our trend is to ask without postponing

Watch your step, Stella

We will be waking up all the boys if we make too much noise

'Who is it?'

Hey! Gluttons

What are you doing here?

Totally tanked!

Why did you strike out the hearts I drew?

Is it necessary to autograph it with a 'sorry'?

- Tell me...? - I don't understand

Is it wrong for a girl to propose of her own accord?

I'm awesome, right?

Who told you?

Are you drunk?

Me...?

Okay

Not just you

Nobody in this world loves me!

Who told you that?

Everyone loves you

Your mother loves you

Your father

Even our Subha...!

- Subha, do you love me? - Of course, I do

- Let's hug then - Sure...sure

- Come...come - No...no...no

It will be misinterpreted

Dharma, do you love me?

Is this a blood test or what to get immediate result?

Yes, please tell me

Profess your love to me

My dear lady, I love you

- Promise? - I swear I love you!

Finish your course and graduate

I'll personally come and talk to your father

Regarding our wedding?

- Yes - Hey, come...come

For instant result

Don't let go of it

Catch it

'Okay, go back to your room safe and sound'

'We have reached our room'

'Aiyo! Stella...!'

'Come along'

'Stop giggling for no reason'

Sonny, if you don't know accept you don't

Just don't say no

What's your girl's name?

Kala

Like the moon in the sky...

...there is a Kala on earth for this guy

Oh! Poetry it seems!

You rock, 'machan'!

Control your emotions

Don't miss the mood by getting too emotional

If you do then the poem will sound so lame!

Okay, continue in the same mood

Recite it once

Like the moon in the sky radiant my Kala is on earth, equivalent

- Yes, that sounds good - Thanks, bro

Boys, where can I find Muniyandi master?

- Muniyandi master? - No one by that name teaches here

Not here

He has been working here for 25 years And I know him from his childhood

Hey Hassan, do you know any professor named Muniyandi?

I know the hotel Muniyandi Vilas

- Get lost, you bloody dolt - Greedy fellow!

Sir, we don't know anyone by that name teaching here

Come on, you are a student here and you don't know your own master?

Sir, there is no one teaching here by the name Muniyandi

Show me all the teachers here and I'll tell you who Muniyandi is

- Okay - Come

Where are you going?

- Who? - Professor Muniyandi

- Muniyandi...? - I'll get back and tell you

Do you know him?

Sir, there is no such professor here Tell me what's the matter

For the consecration of Goddess Shaklhi temple

I came to collect a donation from him

I can do that for you How much is it?

Sonny, it's not the money

He is the first educated person from our village to do well in life

He is so academically oriented

He must be here, I'm sure Let's look for him

- 'If any doubts, don't hesitate - Hey! Muniyandi!

- Hey! Hello, brother - At last

How is it none of your students know you by your name?

They don't know me by that name

My dear boy, he is Muniyandi from our village

Back in his school days when he used to dress up as MGR and perform...

...whistles will rent the air!

He is exaggerating! Go to your class

He was looking for you

He belongs to my village Go to your class

Thank you very much I'll take leave then

Thank you very much I'll take leave then

- Muthu...Muthamma - What?

Tea

Did you make the sweet?

It was a little too sweet

Bro, you're a natural flirt!

I've been following her for a long time, doctor

She isn't falling one bit

You don't fall flat Better to watch your step

Stella, you got out of your fear?

Sir, her fear vanished into thin air right away

Sir, tea

Batted without a guard And he got hurl!

Hey! Don't let your tongue run

Sir, I have a doubt

Go ahead

Muniyandi is your nick name, right?

Muniyandi is my original name

My dad passed away when I was very young

My village was part of Ramanathapuram district

Farming depended only on rainfall

My mother knew nothing but agriculture

I was 5 years old then

So hungry I would bring the roof down it seems

That was when my mother found out the Govt school provided mid-day meals

She enrolled me in that school knowing I would be well fed at least

I went to school basically to eat

In the bargain I ended up becoming a doctor

The mid-day meal scheme was initialed by the ruling Chief minister Kamaraj

I didn't know back then

I found out much later

I took up his name to ensure I never forget him

Later on I changed my name in the Gazette as well officially

No matter how well qualified a doctor I am...

...I'll always be known as Muniyandi to my villagers, right?

- Hey! Kamaraj sir - Oh! Kamaraj sir, huh?

Don't you know his name? Just watch now

Muniyandi

'How's that?'

Hey! Dharman

Don't call him He'll kill us with his poetry

'Ignore him, or else you'll put him on a pedestal'

Who was the one who referred to our sir as Muniyandi?

Isn't that his name? How else to call him?

Ouch! My hand

Aaah! It's paining

What's the problem?

Don't know Some fight I guess

Hey! Dharma, I'm your friend Arijit I recited your poem and my love worked ou-

(grimacing in pain)

You are making a mistake I won't spare you

Don't, Dharma

(grunts in pain)

Dharam that's enough Leave him alone

'Dharma Leave him'

Stop it

Come on, Dharma

Go just go!

Sir, if my parents get to know it will become a major issue

Don't tell anyone at home

I'll take care

What happened, doctor?

Don't really know what happened, doctor

But it turned into a nasty brawl

First of all for a surgery, get used to holding a knife with steady hands

I'm really disappointed

I didn't expect this from you at all

Apologize to Hassan

Excuse me, sir, actually it was Hassan's fault

Dharma hit him because he teased you

First ask Hassan to apologize to you

Sir, Dharmadurai isn't the violent kind

Even the college magazine features his poem on peace

Hassan, like Subha said apologize to sir first

Stella...!

So the doctor writes a poem on peace But breaks someone's head as well, huh?

Apologize to him

I'm sorry

Hassan, I'm really sorry

- Come here - I'll be back

We need to talk to you Can you come to the police station?

Watchman 'anna', we need to visit the staff quarters urgently

- Can we please go? - Get back soon

What happened? At this time of night?

Can't you focus on your studies alone?

I intend filing a case on you for 'attempt to murder'

It will drag on for 2 years

You can't continue your MBBS course hereafter

Better get yourself a good lawyer

Do you know the clout that boy's family has?

Do you know the clout that boy's family has?

Does it make sense for all the students to go around announcing 'I am a rowdy'?

Go straight, please

All this is very common in a student's life

Today they will fight They will gang up tomorrow

He shouldn't have hit your son

He feels bad about it, I know Please don't file any case on him

He is the first doctor from a very backward village

Please be magnanimous

Sir, he has hit my son on his head What if his skull had cracked?

Saira

Nothing drastic has happened Neither will it happen

I take full responsibility

After all both of them are my students

Sir, Dharman, Hassan We are all classmates

I apologize to you on his behalf

Sir, how can I see if I wear a helmet at night?

Hey! Come along

Bro, thanks a lot

Bro, I was so scared I didn't know what to do

Our Kamaraj sir went to Hassan's house

Hey! What's up?

Today even I'm excited

Because we are expecting the semester results

I'm not worried about any of you

But that chap who keeps laughing Selvaraj, I'm worried for him

Those 2 girls were really brave

They rushed here not minding the late hour

How about a cup of coffee?

Come along

Hi gluttons

We wanted to come to the police station

Sir said you had left

Will we leave you high and dry?

Tell me

- My dear gluttons! - Yes, idiot

Hey! Shouldn't we be in class now?

Let's go

- Shall we go? - Let's go

Let me drop you at your hostel

Get ready soon and come to our classroom

You are indebted to them You shouldn't forget them

As a means of thanking them, there are many poor villages in India

People there await you with pain and sorrow

You should offer your medical service to them

I have been a strict disciplinarian

I might have hurl you on many occasions

Treat me as a friend and forget such moments

I'm also retiring this year

A doctor has to work till his last breath

No rest at all

My young doctors

...my heartfelt wishes for your bright future

Do visit the college once in a while

You call what you did as 'dance'?

Go have a blast, bro

You rocked, man

- Hey! Hassan - Don't act smart with me

Dharma, remember you told me when we were in 2nd year, I've now graduated

Now I don't know whether you'll come over and talk to my dad

But I'll always be thinking of your visit

- You'll come, right? - Definitely

- You should come - I will

Take care Godspeed

I wanted to tell you something

Tell me

I forgot

I want to see you being happy always

'Give him a breather'

Don't apply oil, grandma

I'll be back

Hey, where are you going?

- To the bathroom - Wait, I'll come with you

I don't want to pee now

Hey, you can control, right?

Hey, you can control, right?

Won't embarrass me I hope

Keep quiet

'Gopal, tell me the truth I'll drop you right here'

Won't I tell you if I knew?

Won't I tell you if I knew?

You've been wandering from morning on an empty stomach with a vengeance

Stop at a hotel

Alex, stop near a road side eatery

Having decided to stop, do so where they serve country chicken

I believe if you eat country chicken, your life will run smooth on oiled wheels

Don't use violence in my vehicle, sir

Can't deal with court and case

We have better hideouts for it!

Sir knows a doctor named Kesavan

He'll frequently visit him

I don't believe a word of what you said

Dharman is not like that

We were 6 of us in our gang

Of which 3 were girls

None of us are in touch with each other now

Maybe he has gone to meet one of our college staff or professors

Whom?

He may have gone to meet our college staff

See if that works

See if that works

If I get to hear something, I will keep you posted

Seeing the flustered state you are in there's more to it than meets the eye

Please tread carefully

Nothing like that Don't worry

We'll take care

- We'll take leave - Let's go

Who is it?

Who are you?

Bro, how are you doing?

I don't recognize you

Are you Andipatti doctor?

Are you Andipatti doctor?

I'm Dharmadurai

Wasn't this your classroom?

This room is no longer in use

By the way why are you here?

I need a favor

2 girls studied with me

Stella and Subhashini I need their address

Stella and Subhashini I need their address

Checked Facebook, Twitter and Google

My other friends also have no clue Please help me

You're the first person who celebrated my birthday

I can get the details from inside

Why do you need it?

Both of them always wished me well

Stella and Subhashini

I want to meet them, bro

Thanks, bro

I still have 10 more years of service

If my superiors find out I gave you this information...

If my superiors find out I gave you this information...

...I'll lose my job

That will never happen Don't even worry about it

Bro...?

- How is Muthamma doing? - She has 2 kids now

Super, bro, very good

I'm not her husband!

Why are you raking up the past and adding salt to my wound?

Why are you raking up the past and adding salt to my wound?

Okay, forget I asked Give me the bag

- Why is it so heavy? - My clothes and books are in it

- I won't take any money - Just keep it

- Shall I leave? - Okay, sir

Shall I take leave? Bye, bro

What did he want?

Mr Dharma came

Went around the campus

Any problem, sir?

Did he carry anything with him?

He was carrying a bag

Before he left he gave me 1000 bucks for expenses

Tell me what it is about

Nothing he took some money from home

If he comes back here, will you please ask him to call this number?

- I'll certainly inform you - Thank you

Look at his audacity, uncle Donating our money to a stranger

Let's find him first

Hey! Mr Evidence...!

Hey! Mr Evidence...!

Even you are like them

Won't you call me by my name?

Then your name isn't Evidence?

I thought like Alwyn and Edwin...

...Evidence is also a Christian name!

Get in Let's go

'Tell me'

I'm Stella's classmate Dharmadurai, sir

I've heard about you from my daughter

Please come in

ls Stella here?

She has gone to the clinic

Shall we talk it over and fix it finally?

- Sir...? - Please sit down

My daughter's most repeated line

'Dharman will come'

She even asked me to contact you

But I advised her to wait

Today you are here in person

I can't believe it

When can I fix the wedding?

I...er

Are you attached to any clinic?

You don't look like you have a regular practice

You shouldn't give it up

Otherwise you'll forget medicine

I learnt from my professor to swim against the tide, sir

Won't forget it till I die

Won't forget it till I die

Stella also got an offer to work abroad

But she refused to go

She said her professor won't like it

After a long time I feel I've meta 100% honest man

My daughter died in a car accident

My daughter died in a car accident

She told me you'll definitely come to ask me if you can marry her

Not too many people here know she has passed away

You wouldn't have known either

You're the man my daughter fell in love with

Which means...

...you are my son-in-law

Doctor, it's evident you are disturbed about something

Whatever it is, you must get it out of your system

I'm ready to help you in whatever way possible

Tell me, bro

Isn't there anyone in this house?

That Telugu lady sold the house and moved out

Someone from Nagercoil has bought it

Where is the previous owner?

Her daughter is working at Dr Vallal Kalanjiyam's hospital

Her daughter is working at Dr Vallal Kalanjiyam's hospital

I work as the watchman here

Not watchman You are watchwoman

- I must see the scan reports - Okay, doctor

- Also check her weight - Sure, doctor

- Also check her weight - Sure, doctor

A person named Dharmadurai has come to meet you

I asked him regarding what and he said 'personal'

- I'll be there - Okay, doctor

What did she say?

She is coming

She is coming

- Receptionist - What. . .?

This is a hospital

Don't yell

Switch on the fan

There's a power outage

No electricity

- Are these lights running on battery? - What...?

From the moment he entered...

...he has been bombarding me with unnecessary questions

...he has been bombarding me with unnecessary questions

I think he's drunk

Is he related to you, doctor?

Dr Dharmadurai

It's getting late for me

- When will they come? - Are you asking me?

- When will they come? - Are you asking me?

- I am talking to myself - Oh! Thinking aloud, huh?

I feel sorry for you

- Got stuck with this lot - Wretched fellow!

- Got stuck with this lot - Wretched fellow!

Hey! Hold on

Hey! Hold on

Won't you reverse carefully?

What happened?

Aiyo! Look at my plight

I brought a patient to the hospital and you made me a patient!

You insisted on fuelling the van and fueled him to break his limbs

- Liftmlifl him - Come...move

- Hello! - Hey! Subha

How did you become like this?

During the day in the reception!

That too you are a doctor

I didn't expect this of you

I was under the assumption you are doing well

I lost touch with everyone after I got married

I lost touch with everyone after I got married

What can I ask and to whom?

When did you get into this new habit?

Addicted already?

I sent you my wedding invitation

It was returned to me

How did you become like this?

Subha, where is your husband?

Subha, where is your husband?

He lives in Hyderabad

He comes down only once every 2 months

He's also a doctor

I don't want you to get into any mess because of me

That's why I asked

Isn't your mother at home?

Are you all in touch with me to inform you?

Coffee

Why are you looking so different?

Are you practicing or not?

Are you married?

Where is your wife?

I don't even know where Stella is!

Did you meet Kavitha?

She was going to France She mailed me

I replied too

I didn't get any response after that

There are many ways to stay in touch

We all became engrossed in our work, house etc, right?

We all became engrossed in our work, house etc, right?

What happened to you?

Nothing

I was pampered a lot at home

So I was really spoilt

Look at me and talk

You came in search of me, right?

You came in search of me, right?

You came looking for me

Look at my face and talk

You thought you could lie?

Serve me a good bone

Wait, I'll serve

Serve some more mutton pieces, my dear

Don't hog all the meat

Tomorrow...

If a robber tries to snatch my jewelry...

...I need strength to hit him back, right?

Shut up and just serve more meat

Shut up and just serve more meat

- Acting over smart! - Serving only bones

Nobody to question you, right? So you let your tongue run

I bought this cell phone by borrowing money

And I get messages asking me to buy more

Hey! Come here

Come

Go

Go

Go sit there

Go, my dear lady

- What do you want? - I want to meet the doctor

Want to consult immediately or after an hour?

Want to see him now It's urgent

Talk softly

I'm standing right here

I must see him immediately

I must see him immediately

Want to meet him now?

I have to drink tea

Look at your token number

What is your token number?

Bro, here you go

Tea is only 8 bucks but you've given 20?

Buy some snacks along with tea

You have a heart of gold

Go, take a seal I'll be right back

I'll get the doctor for you

Wait, we'll meet the doctor

Patients are waiting, sir

You are so sincere even in your CRRI internship

Why don't you take up a Govt post as doctor?

Mr Gopal

I don't have money power to buy any posting

I'll serve my villagers back home

Sir, these people came first

Good morning

Morning

What is your problem?

Name Kaluvayi 70 years old

Suffering from indigestion

Is that right?

What did you eat?

Went for a feast

They ate all the meat like they won't see another day!

What is your name?

Veerayi Age 68

- All of you have the same problem? - Yes, doctor

You think this is a center to distribute digestive tablets?

You've lined up here instead of chewing betel leaves after feasting on the meat?

So you've eaten one full lamb, right?

You must go slow on meat because of your age

Okay, sir

- Same medicine for everyone - Okay, sir

What is your problem? Tell the doctor

My name is Anbuselvi, age 24

Kamakapatli is my village

I feel very tired

Prescribe a tonic for additional nutrition

Are you the agent for these oldies?

Not really, bro

When my mother was unwell...

...I was a kid

I didn't know how to get to the hospital

I couldn't save my mother

So whoever is unwell in the village...

...I rush them at once to the hospital

Here you go

This is for you

And this is for your friends

Let's go, grandma

Wait for your turn He will attend to you

Watch your step

Please go

Bro...?

Don't mistake me

I don't understand what you've written

Is it for you to read?

- Mr Gopal - Sorry again!

- Tell me - Bro...?

Take a look

It looks like some doodle you've scribbled

I've studied until 10th grade

Even I'm unable to read this

Somehow a doctor's handwriting is always a puzzle, bro!

Please write legibly

I've rewritten everything in Tamil

Thank you, bro

Did you call me, bro?

See you

Sir, shall we see the other patients?

Find out about Anbuselvi and her family details

Is she that beautiful?

Beauty is beyond features and fair complexion

Actions speak louder than appearance

I can't enter the thick skull of someone who takes bribes from all my patients!

Thank you so much for your dig at me!

Hello, Anbuselvi

- Bought the medicines? - Yes, I did

If you need any snacks just buy

Who is your father in Kamakapalti?

Policeman Paraman's daughter

Buy whatever you want You don't have to pay

Why, bro?

Time for a change!

Your doctor is coming

Note it down in my account

Sir, got them refreshments in my account at the tea stall

Just because I take a tenner as bribe, don't take action against me

I have a family to take care of

I'll take leave, bro

Come...welcome

'Akka', they have come in 2 cars

Please come How are you?

Let's go

When you have Vaigai river close to you...

...you've come in search of this forest river

That's what puzzles me

My daughter has studied only up to 10th grade

Your son is a doctor

Will this alliance work out?

It will all be fine

They like each other, no?

That's why we came looking for you all this way

Anbu, serve tea for everyone

Give them

What is your name, my dear?

Anbuselvi

As if our old lady doesn't know her name

She's just testing if the bride can hear!

Tea for me

I have seen this girl somewhere

Have you come for the 100 Days Work scheme?

I don't send her to work anywhere

Only to the cucumber garden near the Vaigai dam

Go inside, dear

I'd like to tell you once more

My daughter is just a 10th grader

The groom is a doctor

I doubt if I can meet your high expectations

I'll do the best I can afford

We don't expect anything

Your daughter will be our asset

All in the game of love Our hands are tied

Ask your daughter if she is agreeable

Mr Gopal, our driver is all by himself there

Go and chat with him

I anticipated this

This is way beyond our means

I'll lift you up with all my strength

Spread your wings Fly and be happy, dear

Pa?

I want to talk to him

Che Kumara! Start the car and switch on the air-conditioner

Did you discuss politics? They've chased you away?

I spoke the truth, man

Truth should be told depending on place, subject, person!

Don't preach to me Start the car

Er...nothing serious

My daughter wants to talk to you alone

I'll go talk to her

Hey! Why are you in a rush?

I'll be back in a jiffy

Go to the rear portion Meet my mother also

Poor thing! She's quite immobile

Get her blessings

I called you 'bro' at the hospital

I feel bad about that

You are my fiancé now

Who is this?

My grandma

Grandma?

Can I marry your granddaughter?

May you be always happy, my dear boy

I'll take leave

Hello, Anbu?

Heard you're getting married

Ignoring me right royally

Hello, 'akka'

Thanks, 'ka

- Sit down - It's okay

Don't make a fuss, sit

Your recipe on cucumber chutney in 'Rani' magazine was too good

Keep writing

Thanks, 'ka

The groom is a doctor it seems

Yes, 'ka

He belongs to our community

They came forward with this alliance

Which is the venue?

We wanted to perform the wedding in our temple

But many of his classmates will be attending the function

We wanted to celebrate in a grand manner

My father is trying to fix Muthuvel wedding hall

That may turn out very expensive?

Can't worry about all that, 'ka

We will also look dignified in their eyes

They will also be comfortable

Okay, come in

Come inside, Anbu

This is for you

- It's okay, 'ka - Don't refuse

Our village policeman's daughter

Plus my favorite writer Anbuselvi from Kamakapatti

Won't we celebrate your wedding with pomp and splendor?

Take 'kumkum'

He has come in search of you knowing your background

Take good care of him, okay?

See you, 'ka

1 minute, can I have a word with you?

Is it wrong for the groom to meet the bride before the wedding?

My friend wanted this clarified

He asked you to find out, huh?

Oh no! Not your son

Shouldn't go normally It isn't right

But no harm

Sir, enjoy

I can't accompany you

What's up, dear?

It's my birthday

Gopal, today is her birthday

Is that so? Bless you, dear

Gopal, it seems today is her birthday

Let me eat this first, sir

Tastes good

Gopal, it seems today is her birthday

I don't understand, sir

GOPAL, TODAY IS HER BIRTHDAY!

I got it at last, sir!

Shall we go up?

Zip Zip zoom!

Your father-in-law's house could have been at a hilltop

Who is it?

Hello, aunt

Good afternoon, Gopal 'anna'

Your birthday, huh?

Who is the guest, Anbu?

Grandma, my fiancé is here

The groom should not visit us before the wedding, dear

We didn't want to break your custom

But the situation was such we had to bend a little

Today is your groom's niece's birthday

She insisted on giving candy to her new aunt, what a tantrum!

Rolled on the floor crying

I didn't do-

Okay...okay

If you miss the car at 2:00 p.m you may have to spend the night here

We've come in our bike

We'll drink tea and leave very soon

So don't worry

Come

Grandma, don't worry

Okay

Come in

The shelves are lined with old books

My dear, won't you sell all these books to a vendor?

You can mint money

I write tidbits for magazines

The library is nearby I borrow books and read

I send tips on farming and recipes to magazines

They pay me Rs 100 to Rs 500

What is your professional name?

Kamakapatli Anbuselvi

Hey! Is that you?

You are pretty famous

Sir, you are marrying a renowned writer

But I'll gobble all the chocolates with the wrapper!

Do you really think I'll be the right match for you?

Only you will be Ms Right for me

Really?

I swear on myself

"The wind blowing into Andipatti brings in so much gaiely"

"This fiancée of mine makes my head heady"

- Tidbit Selvi, how are you? - I'm fine, sir

Sign here

Congratulations Heard you're engaged

Yes, sir He's standing out

Won't he come in?

- He isn't literate? - He's a doctor, sir

“Will that day dawn, tell me? Can neem oil become ghee?"

"How can this mermaid be suspicious of the sea?"

"Will this poor girl be taken for a ride?“

"I'll gift myself to you, my dear bride?“

"I called all the men in town 'brother"'

"Only you from now I call as 'dear' however"

Look how she's showing off!

This is called 'Skin care', you ignorant woman!

Good afternoon, sir

Hello, good to see you

Sir, you are the policeman for our village and you're farming now

- How are you? - I am fine, thank you

You forgot all about us once the alliance was finalized

How can I forget you?

In the village nearby a scoundrel owes money

So we came here to collect it from him

If you can fix the wedding date I can pay a deposit for the hall

Sure...sure

Looks like my brother is likely to get a Govt posting

if you can manage 50-

VVait...wait

Get them some water to drink, dear

Okay. Pa

Tell me

If you can give 50 sovereign gold jewelry, we'll appreciate it

Plus 500000 as part of the dowry

Your daughter will be treated with respect in the village

I know you will do the needful

You shouldn't think less of us for not giving you our wish list

We have spent around 2000000 on my brother's education to make him a doctor

Let us know your decision We can fix the wedding date

And...let my brother not know we came hereto discuss terms

He'll get mad at us

Let's sort this out between us

Tell us good news soon We will take leave now

See you

What, mummy?

I believe you're forever roaming in and around the Koot road

Who told you?

He must have gone to see one of his patients

Did you gift something to her?

Should I buy?

You are such a miser, I swear

And I named you 'Dharma'! I must have been off my mind

If he doesn't buy you call him a miser

If he did, you will accuse him of bequealhing his wealth to a girl

You expect me to believe you'll make such a will!

This is a 'kumkum' box I got at our temple when I was very young

Tell her this is a gift from me

This is for you

She gives a mere brass box and thinks it is the Kohinoor!

- Mr Gopal - Sorry, sir

What's wrong ?

We are conducting this wedding selling my father's house and land

My father and grandma have to move into a rented house after I marry you

How can we give all of a sudden 50 sovereign gold and 500000 cash?

How can I come with you by making my father a debtor?

Your brothers have spent on your education

If you marry into an affluent family they can pay you the dowry you want

Did someone from my family pester you with such demands?

Not pester, but this is the general norm, right?

What worries me is they are saying the wedding won't happen otherwise

We have told all our friends and relatives

I am scared

Okay?

My mother gave this kum-kum box as her gift to her daughter-in-law

How dare you humiliate me!

What the hell?

Why did you demand money from Anbu's father?

You've asked him to shell out 50 sovereign gold and cash

We did it for your good

What the hell?

Even a farmer-groom gels 50 sovereign gold as dowry

Because you liked her, can we treat her like royalty?

Planning to sell me, bloody mongrels

People here pity you

Did I ask you for money?

How could you?

What happened?

He's hitting us because we went and asked them for money

How dare you ask for dowry!

What's wrong with you?

Dharma, calm down

This is part of our custom

In a wedding guests give gifts

Does it mean we begged them to?

Damn your custom

What you asked is dowry!

Gift is voluntarily given

Not demanded, okay?

We didn't force them to give

You whacko!

Did we do something abnormal?

You'll get a hospital if you marry the bride of my choice

Shouldn't the girl you choose at least offer a clinic for you?

Please don't interfere

I can handle it myself

I'll butcher you

There's a huge argument outside Go and find out what's wrong

First understand this

I don't get involved in these brawls with men

Bad enough I am tense you made gravy with okra instead of brinjal!

Bloody glutton you are

What is this fist fight for?

They went and demanded dowry behind my back, ma

Shameless fellows!

You are better off begging!

They won't ask I'll handle it

You go inside

Go...go

He tore my shirt

It's okay, go in

Go, Arjuna

I thought they will be as united as the Pandavas and named them so

Someone has cast a spell on my boys

Look what you did

We were compassionate and you showed your true colors

Go inside, dear

Why couldn't you tell us if you can't afford to pay up?

Why cause a rift in our family?

My brother has never hit me till now

You goaded him into hitting me

How will your daughter be happy in our house?

She hasn't stepped into our house as yet

Are you trying to split the 5 of us before that?

Wonder what she will do then!

We came down from our status and you created a misunderstanding

Is this your occupation to split up a joint family?

Do you know how many girls are waiting in a queue for my brother?

He had to go and fall for this guttersnipe!

You came first to my house proposing this match?

I am not interested in this proposal

This wedding won't happen

You can leave

Don't tell us

You've made your daughter lure my brother, tell him when he comes

Let's go

Disgusting!

'If you don't have the money go and beg or borrow'

You thought we were losers, huh?

Fat hopes he had

My dear child!

No need this match, dear

Not this family

Tomorrow they may say the gas stove exploded

Or she fell into the river

They may do something in their greed for money

How can I lose you?

How can I lose you?

How will I live without you?

Don't worry

I'll get you married to a farmer

He will take care of you happily

We don't want an educated groom

No need

Mother...rna?

Father doesn't want this alliance

He is in my heart as my husband, ma

God help me!

Pa...?

“We”;?

Why are you sitting here in the dark?

I didn't go for my duly tonight

Why, pa?

I don't mind going down on my bended knees to the doctor

My father need not fall at anyone's feet and beg

They came in 2 cars with this proposal to our doorstep

He will come for me

I am positive

Go with a relaxed mind

Relax?!

I'll rest in peace only when I die

Have you sent for the ambulance?

I want the postmortem report immediately

Anbuselvi

How could you leave us behind?

I guarded the whole village and I wasn't there for my daughter

You made an innocent girl trust you and killed her

We shouldn't have let you into our village

I won't spare your life

Let go of him

Trample him

Don't spare him

Move

He shouldn't enter our village

I'll kill you

Whatever it is come to the station

Constables, hurry up

Move aside

Kill him

Don't let him in here

If you don't take proper action we won't let it go, madam

VVait...wait

Call the doctor

Okay, madam

Madam is calling you

Greetings'

'No one is responsible for my death'

'My suicide attempt and the proposal to marry Dr Dharmadurai are not connected at all'

'l have been suffering from stomach cramps and migraine for many days'

'l am not fit to get married'

'That is why I decided to end my life'

'No one is responsible for my death'

'This letter clarifies my decision'

'P.Anbuselvi'

Look, doctor!

If this girl had written this letter only to me, I would have torn it

And locked you up

But she sent this letter to me, the headmaster, 'tahsildar' and librarian

Sir

SIR...?

I am talking to you

Will you register a complaint?

I'll take action against them

Will you complain? I'll lock him up for good

Why are you hesitating, uncle?

Register a complaint We will see that he rots in jail

- Go ahead - Why are you thinking?

Register a complaint

My daughter herself didn't want to punish him

What do I get by punishing him?

I've lost my daughter What is left for me?

Your brother is coming back from the police station

Go in We can talk later

Go inside the room

What happened, sister-in-law?

Be silent You can talk later

What did I do?

Don't throw it on me

What could I do?

Dharma, listen to me

Come here

Durai!

Durai!

Be patient

Come here

'Don't retaliate'

Ma, come soon

Come here, son

Maaa...!

Gawd!

Ma...?

She pleaded with me

I am a doctor and they have killed her, ma

They have killed her

Okay...calm down

They killed her

Tonsure my head

Go away

Listen to me...go

They killed my mother

What are you saying?

He is pestering me Take him away

Take him with you

Go, bro

He isn't even agreeing to tonsure my head, ma

I don't want any injection

I'll be fine with these tablets

Call yourself a doctor?

How many patients you would've injected?

Subha, no need, please

Because you stopped drinking You'll be fine

I know

Subha, you were in love with me, in college, right?

I'll make mincemeat out of you!

You hid it from me

Listen! They want you to settle the money you took from them

Your house has no value at all

But the land commands a good rate

Even if you will that property you may have to pay about Rs 300000

They want the house Are you prepared to part with it?

Arjuna, Bhimarasu What do you say?

Will you give the house?

Sir, it is ancestral property

We can't part with it

Otherwise file a case against Dr Dharmadurai

Be precise about the section We'll handle the case later

Sir, you know my son, right?

Don't you know him?

I do, tell me

Weren't you classmates?

Ye s

You think my son is a thief?

Is he capable of stealing?

Tell me

How can you believe their stories?

How can you believe their stories?

Listen to this truth from me

I haven't told this to anyone till now

I want to share this with you

I am suspicious about both my younger boys

If you enquire properly they will cough up the truth

They stole the money and chased my son away

Good yarn!

Ma, are you off your rockers?

Why would we steal this money?

If you have taken it please return it

Your mother herself is saying this

Thank god she didn't blame me

You were about to file something

First Information Report

Don't file it

You shouldn't

Then they will publish his face in all the newspapers

Just a pittance after all

If he treats a few patients he can make up the missing cash

(overlap of voices)

If you let them off they'll go soot free

Why did you walk away in a huff?

They keep talking like a broken record

You aced it with your law point

My son went out of our village and studied with great difficulty

They beat him up in the middle of the road

Did he retaliate?

Why didn't he?

He paid heed to my words and my dear son didn't hit back

Don't get upset

For his good heartedness he will be fine wherever he is

Let us go in and sign

Otherwise they may lock us up

If they do any such thing I'll burn the station down

You seem very determined

- Morning, doctor - Morning

- How are you doing? - I am good, please sit down

Doctor, Dr Dharmadurai is here

You bought this for me

Of course it'll be nice

We picked it up knowing you'll look good

- Let's go - Where are we going?

- Today is Independence day - August 15th?

Is today Independence day?

No, sir

- Independence day for me - Taking off?

Come, da

What about these patients? Okay, Subha

Sir, your wife

Wait...I'll remove it

Okay now?

I'm Dr Sivaraj M.S, M.D from U.S

What's wrong with you?

Your divorce came through without any hassles

You will soon get the judgment copy

Please sign here

- Need anything else? - That's all

Let's go

'What, Subhashini?'

'No goodbye, huh?'

Think this is your victory?

If I had lived with you...

...I would have lost!

There are many poor people living in the US too

America will take care of that

How silly of you, sir? Shall we leave?

He was so bugged when I said we are living together

I was shocked myself Then why won't he be?

Forget it

By the way, Subha...

...what is the problem?

He's a murderer!

Murderer...?

He looks like he has no bad habits at all?

He's a disciplined bad guy!

I am pregnant

What's the urgency to have a baby now?

'Told him I was pregnant'

'But he asked me to abort the baby'

'Tag along with him and settle abroad'

I will start my practice here

Along with my classmates

I promised my professor I'll serve my people

Okay?

'Without my knowledge...'

'...he had mixed abortion tablets in the milk'

'My baby...'

'...was gone!'

Why did you let him go soot free?

What could I do?

- Hey Dharma - Just a minute

Let me have a word with him, dear

Wai

She's someone...

...who has donated her organs while she was still a student

You can't even be compared to the dust on her feet

- Hello - Call yourself a doctor?

Wait, I'm talking, right?

It's wrong to check the gender of the fetus

You've killed her baby without her permission

It's getting late, let's go

Not going to the hospital?

No, not today

Everyone is inquiring as if there was a funeral at home

I should have forgotten our Kamaraj sir's advice

Compromised with my husband

I should have aborted my baby like he told me to

And I could have happily settled in America, right?

I don't know how to enjoy life

Isn't that what you're thinking?

You're bound to think so

You think I'm a lunatic, right?

I think you look like my Anbuselvi

Subha

I shared what I felt in my heart

Sorry if I had hurl you

Shall I stay elsewhere?

Tell me

I'm feeling very secure today

“lf circumstances cause harm won't happiness be lukewarm?“

“To quench thirst however can a sieve hold the water?“

“Like mother's milk as rainfall you quenched my thirst, my girl"

"We have no name for this bond we share You gifted me your tender loving care“

“The top of your head to caress do I have the right, my princess?“

No water in the shower, Dharma

I'm coming

My eyes are burning

Coming...coming

This is called water can consecration

'Anbuselvi Clinic Dr S.Dharmadurai M.B.B.S'

What is the matter?

My sight is failing, I'm not able to watch TV programs

Look here

Watchwoman, what happened to your job?

Who will respect us enough to offer us a job?

- Shall I take leave? - Sure, bro

"Whichever side I may see there is just 1 sky only“

My arms and legs pain a lot

- What do you do? - I'm jobless, sitting at home

Sometimes when you do nothing, your body will ache

- Will you do me a favor? - Tell me, doctor

Walk for half an hour daily Morning and evening

I'll prescribe a tablet for your body ache

"When you rest your head on my chest there is an honesty, dearest"

Shouldn't ride a bike for too long a period

Okay, Subha We will buy a car soon

I shouldn't stamp you like this

- Little behind - Here...?

“Hearing my order, dear your cloud of sorrow will disappear“

"Your cheek I will be to bear your tears gladly“

Bless you

Thanks, bro

Ask the patient to come

- Good morning, sir - Good morning, please sit

- What's the matter? - Not able to crap

Not passing motion?

What did you have last night?

- Ate 'parotta' - 'Parotta'?

How can you eat 'parotta?

They've banned it in Kerala!

That flour is used as glue to stick posters

If you eat that you will be constipated

Eat a banana, drink plenty of water, you'll be fine

- What does your father do? - My father is no more, sir

Your father has passed away?

Here, eat the Blue java variety

Don't eat 'parotta', sir

Please come What's your problem?

I want to meet your doctor regarding a personal issue

Oh! I see And you are...?

My name is Kamaraj

Tell him I'm a retired professor

Okay, sir, please sit I'll inform him

Injection not needed

Give only this medicine thrice a day

Okay...?

Go easy on ice cream, okay?

Bro, retired professor Kamaraj has come to see you

Shall I ask him to come in?

Sir, doctor has come

Hello, doctor

My name is Kamaraj

I was a professor in Madurai Medical College

I heard a doctor is practicing here

I taught a student with your name

I had a gut feeling maybe you are that student

That's why I came to see you

Which college, doctor?

Dharmaduraim!

It's so unfortunate I can't see your face now

Please come

Please come in, sir

Come

This society always watches what we do

Whether you are together or separated, it must be legal

That augurs well for a man and a woman

In fact for the family too

You both get married soon

Before that...

...to think you can live together

...will not work in our village

Sir, we tried to register our marriage

But getting address proof and I.D proof is an uphill task

To prove our identity is so tough

You've already proved it, son

The way your patients shower love on you is proof enough!

Thank you, sir

Hey!

Chase that cow away

Shooo!

Bhimarasu...?

Why chase the cow that belongs to the temple?

Are you brainless or what?

Does this land belong to us?

We are being paid daily wages, get lost!

When have you listened to good advice?

Go...get lost

Oh! God!

I don't know where my son is? If he is struggling?

Karuppiah...!

Won't you show my son to me?

- I'm Kesavan here - Which Kesavan?

Forgotten me, huh?

Madurai Medical College

Hey! Kesavam!

How are you?

- I'm fine, how about you? - Top of the world!

Kamaraj sir gave me your number

Heard the good news

I'm very happy for you

Dharman's brothers came to see me

They told me he ran away from home with a huge amount of money

I can't ask him about this

- Ask him and clear it up - I'll take care

After you fix the marriage date...

...keep me posted for sure

I'll bring all our friends and come

Where are you?

Subham?

Subha, what are you doing-

'30 rupees doctor?'

Yes, tell me

'My son is suffering from flu and extensive shivering'

Please prescribe a medicine

Go to a pharmacy near by

Boil 'nilavembu' brew and give it to him, he'll be fine

'Sure, doctor'

- Okay...? - Thanks a lot, doctor

No problem

Subha, what happened?

Why are you out of sorts?

Running a temperature?

Hey! Where did you get all these wads of cash?

Don't keep it at home Not safe, deposit in the bank

Shall I get something to eat for you?

Our friend Kesavan called

I believe you stole cash from your house?

Your family complained to him it seems

This is the bag you brought here

I found all this in it

In the bag I brought-

I packed only my medical books

It was dark

I couldn't see

- It's okay - What else did he say?

He asked me to solve this problem

Is this the reason for your long face?

It isn't a problem at all We can send it through someone

Get ready, let's go out somewhere

You have to return it in person, dear

They should also know you are doing well for yourself

That's the right thing to do

They won't reform

They would have branded me a robber by now!

I don't want to see them

Why do we need their money?

We can send it through someone

Return this money

Bring your mother here

Because...

...I want her to hold our baby in her arms

When did this get confirmed?

This morning

For this jobless officer a junior officer, doctor?

Is this the job of a jobless officer, doctor?

Bro...?

Wine shop waiter!

Can't even recognize you, wearing shades, looking great like actor MGR

How are you doing?

I'm fine, not seen you at my shop for a long time

I don't go there

Why is my house locked? Isn't anyone here?

They faced too many problems

Key to your house is with the police officer

- What about my family members? - They are outside the village

Near the grove

Okay

Hey!

Brother...?

'Akka'?

'Anna', how are you?

Forgive me

I didn't do it intentionally

I swear I didn't know

I just came to know

I'm not the Dharman you knew

I've stopped drinking

I've started my own clinic

I'm getting married to my college classmate

Life has changed

'Anna', sorry

Please forgive me

That money-

'Hey! What is his story?'

What did Durai say?

You're treating him like the prodigal brother!

You should be amputating his limbs

He humiliated us and brought us to the streets

What further damage did he intend doing?

Bloody thief!

Walking in with coolers and showing off

'Left us without even a change of clothes!'

My Dharma...my Dharmaduraim!

He looks like a prince

Why did you hit him?

Duraim?

PechimChitra, Kaluvaayi All of you, please come

They attacked my dear son

Lifl him...lift

Please lift

Come...come

Watch your step
