It's good that you finally came to meet Uncle Michael, Sis.

When the Portuguese came here, 500 families had converted into Christianity

They were referred to as the Anjooties

Anjooties who worked as fixers for the British, Kings and the local politicians..

.. eventually became the big wigs here

Varkey became the man of the house, some fifty years ago

Varkey and his wife Annamma had five children

The eldest son, Paily married a Muslim girl, Fatima

Varkey and Annamma were very font of her

The second son is Mathai

Michael is the third one ..

The fourth one became a priest- Fr. Simon

Youngest one Susan, fell in love with a Tamil Police officer and married him

Paily was just as his father in every way

I've seen Paily and the Anjootty lads in action at the bazar road

Such a gusty guy he was, but it didn't last long

He was bumped off by the Kocheris, another big crime family

Varkey never got over it, until his demise

His second son Mathai was the one who should have taken the reins

But Michael had to get in to the act as the elder brother was such a waster

He stepped in and took control, sacrificing a family of his own

That was his word to his father, it is heard

If uncle Michael hears what you just told me, sure, it would be done

[RICKSHAW APPROACHES]

[MOTORBIKE PASSES BY]

[CAR DEPARTS]

[KNOCKS]

[GATE LATCH OPENS]

What's it? We need to meet Michael Sir, it's urgent

He is in the middle of a family function

Can you come back tomorrow, sis?

Son, we are coming from Chellanam..

He is too busy, I don't think he could meet you today

Brother Sivankutty,

They have been here since the dawn, to meet uncle Michael

Brother Sivankutty has come

Open up...get in

[GATE CLOSES]

[CAR APPROACHES]

Huh...James, you are sharp on time, it seems

Elections are round the corner, no? Shouldn't I be sharp?

How are your eyes? It's getting better

Good.. Come on in

Hey James.. Tell me sister

Ask Nobi to go to the Bishop house and give an application to the chancellor

How could I recommend with out an application?

He has already done that Is it?

No way ... Pennu is yet to come, right?

Susan has called, she is on the way

Mom..what's up?

Oh.. James..

You seem to be too busy to come around, since your Delhi stint began

Have you become a Delhiite?

Not at all..I come here now and again

That's how the politics goes, for the people, no?

Do you still take Mullet fish for your bosses in Delhi?

You are funny, as always

[SHE CHUCKLES]

We’ll see

Sis, where is brother Mathai? He will be somewhere around

Oh..

[CHAIR SCRAPES] [FOOTSTEPS HURRY AWAY]

[A BIRD HOOT]

Bro..got the plates, glasses, rice basin and water jug..need anything else?

Where have you been all this time? There is plenty of work here

Sorry, it took a while..I'm here anyways Then, get in on

Hey little one.. Off you go

Come in.. Sis, do you know them?

Meet the Bob n Rob of our college Have you had soft drinks?

Their parents are in Dubai They live in a flat here

Guess who? Why not ? sister Rasiya, Ajaz bro's wife

Yes..have you met Mom? Will do now

What a shabby look, Jessy

Why don't you wear something nice? Isn't it an occasion?

This is enough, Mom..

Where has everybody gone? No one is here, Where is Peter?

He must be around, Dad you go down stairs, everybody will be there

[OVEN DOOR OPENS]

[OVEN DOOR SHUTS CLOSE]

Where are you going with this empty plate? Don't want food, brother Paul?

You keep the plate warm.. I shall come later to have it

You will be greeted with the hot spatula if you come for it

OK...

[DOOR SHUTS CLOSE]

Fire up, man.. In- laws and extras have landed downstairs

Huh.. Man, it takes time to heat

[BOTTLE CLANGS]

I'd promised to clear the accounts last week

That Mani sir is so annoying, bro

Tell him that it will take time Told that many times already

It's not him ..you know that

It will be out of hands, if we don't clear it soon

Cook something up and shove it down his throat

Weren't we caught doing the same at the fish farm !

Bro..dad is coming

Oh..are you guys sitting back here? Everybody has come downstairs

Pour a stiff one for me

Don't idle out here ..come down stairs

[BOTTLE THUDS]

[GLASS THUDS]

What is this? Salt powder as accompaniment !

Here comes Susan, you go in ..See you in a while

[CAR COMES TO HALT]

Susan, couldn't you have come sooner for a function at your own house?

It's not my fault, sister Moly. I was ready by 8 in the morning

Then you could have come on your own

I'm not sure what benefit you bring to us, as a top clergyman

Brother, Chevalier order cannot be conferred to anyone and everyone

Not for anyone and everyone, I know

Isn't it the highest order given to a Catholic layman?

Why can't you consider this layman for it?

Brother keep quite.. Haven't I told you the reasons behind it?

The archdiocese is yet to send the recommendation to Vatican

Whom can we approach, now?

What ever it takes, I just want a plaque on our gate reading Chevalier Mathai

Is there anything the sitting MP can do? Tease me not, brother

Hey father, it's getting late. Everyone including the Bishop is waiting

What should I do? The Godfather is still hearing out gospels from somebody

He should not have entertained them on a day like this

Isn't he the saint who never gives up on those who seek him?

Oh..

My son Prince was studying for Pre-Degree when his dad died of heart attack

He was running his father's garage along with his studies

He did not even let me work in the fisheries company

He was studying at Cochin College when Elsa and him fell in love.

One day he introduced her to me as my daughter in law to be

I took her as my own daughter, since then

They were aristocratic Christians who claimed to be..

..brahmins baptised by St. Thomas himself

When they began searching suitable matches for her...

.. she eloped with him

The very night her brothers came and took him away..

.. pretending that they wanted to talk

[SNIFFLES]

They burned him to death, sir

I didn't even get to kiss him goodbye

There was not much left as a body

[SHE CRIES]

Does Christ have any caste?

Isn't it the same Bible we all read?

What they did was against the will of God, wasn't it?

[CRYING LOUDLY]

They're a cold-blooded bunch, my dad and my brothers

It was them who killed Prince

They will get away with the murder charges

We have run out of money fighting the case

Even our house is in hock

They tried hard to take me to Angamaly

I am scared, sir..they are capable of doing anything

[MOTHER CONTINUES TO CRY]

I won't go anywhere leaving her behind

My girl...[SNIFFLES]

Sivankutty, do you know what the slang cotton-scutching means here in Kochi?

It's an age old method of fending boats to prevent damage while berthing at the jetty

Way before the fenders made of tyre and rubber came in..

Raw cotton rolls would be hammered on to the wood..

..so that there is no line left between the cotton layer and the wood

You got me?

Understood, brother

We will take up this case from where they stopped

Jesus used a whip to drive out those who sold things at the temple

But no whip will be enough for these aristocrats baptised by St. Thomas

Sivankutty, drop them home

Everybody is on the wait downstairs Hmm..

How about cutting the cake? Let him come down first

Mom is making it a habit, throwing innuendos at everyone

I don't have to put up with this, I have better things to do as an MP

I am leaving.. Don't do that

He is the God here, how can we say anything?

Isn't it you guys who made him God?

Here comes the..

Hey sister Sabayi...how are you? Have you had a drink or two?

[SHE CHUCKLES]

Nobi's job at the school is ready

Thanks a lot, son

♪ Happy birthday to you ♪

[INDISTINCT CHATTER]

Why are you standing out here? Fati, come here

Ajaz, get a chair for her

Simon..Simon.. - Yes.. Can you come here?

You sit here .. I'm with mom..

That's alright..

Fati, you sit here

Sir..

A moment please It's Sivankutty

I'll be right back

Father, sons and brothers - everybody is present

So, it should be one helluva cotton-scutching, a smooth one

No injuries, mind it. They should be able to walk

..and should appear handsome when produced in the court

As a Sabarimala pilgrim, you stay out of it, Don't provoke Lord Ayyappa

Only supervision, got me?

Hmm...Hail Lord Ayyappa

Go on..

Idiot, don't hit on the face

[CAMERA SHUTTER CLICKS]

Do you know who I am? Nope

Do you know about my family? Whom are you messing with?

If you mess with me, I'll burn you and your fuel station down.

Whom do you think you are?

[HELMET THUDS]

[KITCHEN UTENSILS CLACK]

Here it is OK..

My PG class is from 9 to 4 I know..

It will be tough for Mom to look after the kid along with the chores

Dear Rasi, you don't know my mom

When Mom came as a bride, there were about 20 members in the Anjootty family

She looked after them all by herself

You may go to your class. Mom will handle this with ease

Have a look..is the salt enough?

[FISH CURRY BOILS]

It's on the lower side That means it is more than OK

[UTENSILS CLANG; AJAS CHUCKLES]

Smells good..the mango needs to be cooked a little more

[CHAIR SCRAPES]

What the hell was in his mind, Ajas?

How is the guy he hit doing?

All good. They are not pressing charges We've settled it with some money

I have the respect of that family

..which is unchanged till date

They did respect your dad as well

So, we have that responsibility

[MOTORBIKE APPROACHES]

[HE WHISTLES]

What's for rice today, mom? Fish..mackerel

Fry or curry? Curry

You seem serious

[VEHICLES HONK FROM A DISTANCE]

Uncle Michael had called.. he wants to meet you

Now it seems even better, isn't it?

[BABY COOES]

Do you need to check on Mom daily? Aren't we here to look after her?

Just wanted to see her

No issues, I was just thinking about your inconvenience

[HONING WHEEL SCREECHES]

Where is the baby? He is fast asleep

Hey aunty.. come on in, I'll make some tea

No dear, we just had tea

Mom..

How long have I been telling you to come live with us?

There is enough and more space in this house

Isn't this yours as well?

It's not a big deal granny, Aren't we just a call away?

Your dad also said the same to me when he moved out

Arh...he went too soon

Oh..Jesus, Mary and Joseph, grant eternal rest unto the departed

He is waiting for you

We will be right back..

Oh, Fati, you've come as well!

Fati, you go downstairs I need to talk to him, alone

Come, sit here

Bro.. I have done everything I can

[TEA POT CLANGS]

Uncle Michael, it was not my fault..

That loser hit our boy, accusing him for the rising fuel price

I just lost it, then..

It's true that I had a crack at him but...

I didn't think of the consequences

I will be careful from now onwards [SPOON STIRS IN THE GLASS]

Trust me, this won't happen again

What nonsense are you talking about?

By the way, what's your plan?

Are you thinking of doing something that you are trained for?

Hotel management is not a promising career here, uncle

My pals and I are planning to open a cafe at Fort Kochi

A ferry cafe.. We are looking for a suitable spot

How about our ware house in Kalvathy, Mattanchery?

Will it be suitable for your cafe? - Which one, the peeling shed?

Yeah.. - That'll be awesome

The tourists coming to Fort Kochi will definitely visit Mattanchery too

Hmm.. I shall tell Mani sir You may get the keys from him

OK.. - Have your tea

I knew that I won't get it

Hey, Fr. Simon.. praised be - So be it..

Heard your songs in the Prakashavani cassette..

It was awesome, I loved it

Everybody says so..

Father, you had taken out a loan for that song..

The repayment has not started yet

So, this is what you have been buttering me for !

[HE CHUCKLES]

Do not stretch far ..Anjootty Varkey is my father too

Why would you tell me this? I do what he asks me to do

Haven't you heard him? We are answerable even to the workers

Brother..I am talking to you

These guys are roaming around here all the time, heh !

Michael, there is a bad news

I am not going to get the Chevalier order

That's good

The priests were making fun of our relationship with Fatima's family

We lost it to Stanley of Kurishinkal family

I tried all the tricks for him, However, we can't blame them

How can they confer the Chevalier order to a family having ties with Muslims ?

That's what they are asking

Simon, don't you stop shitting with your gospel preaching tongue?

Let me be clear for one last time, for both of your information..

Fati is the eldest daughter- in -law of this family

She was brother Paily's wife when he died

Brother Ali was with me when I went to jail, finishing those who killed my brother

Our parents made a well-considered decision to marry Fati off to him.

Both of them are our brothers who lived and died for this family

It's on you that Fati and family moved out

She looked after our parents way better than you guys do

So..

No priest or pastor has any rights or power here...

..more than Fati and her children

This is not my decision either, but our late father's

If things are to change, I will have to die

You can try finishing me off

But..It is up to me to decide when I will die

Do you understand, Fr. Simon..heh..?

Always have something like this on hand

[MAGAZINE THUDS]

Brother, let's have breakfast

Let's have some porridge

[CUP CLINGS]

Aren't you coming, Father? - You go, let me visit mom first

[KITCHEN UTENSILS CLANG]

[CHAIR SCRAPES]

Don't you have anything else than this steam cake?

Poridge is there... - Give it to your husband

Could you please take those goddamn glasses off? What an ugly...

Paul, people go light-sensitive after the cataract surgery

Oh...

What's your problem in me wearing these ? I am comfortable

Sure you are.. then don't take it off, Wear it at the time

Yes, I am gonna make it permanent

[MOCKINGLY] It'll be wonderful

Oh..steam cake it is! Better to have porridge, then

Get me some of it... Not that..the egg curry

Hey..Paul, all good?

Father Simon, have some steam cake and egg curry

Get a plate dear..

There must be fish molly and beef stew waiting for him at the parish house

He might not like these egg curry and steam cake

So..don't waste your time here, you may please go

I'm not having, sister, off I go

Jessy you are a commerce graduate, right? - Yes, why did you ask, uncle Michael?

Mani sir is looking for an assistant

Hope you are up for it, so that the salary will stay with in the family

Besides, we can have an eye on the accounts too

Shall I say yes to him?

Do you have any issues? - What issues? nothing, uncle Michael

[CHAIR SCRAPES]

Dad, is it him who makes decisions about my wife?

Didn't you say OK when you were asked?

Dad..no wonder, typical of you!

[HE SPITS IN DISDAIN]

Come with me.. - [WHISPERING] Mom, serve him some more

That was rude, what's wrong in Fr.Simon having breakfast here?

What a pity!

Isn't he your younger brother? He must have felt bad for sure

You won't open your mouth when it matters

[NOCTURNAL AMBIENCE]

Hello.. - Brother

Tell me sis, what's the problem?

Martin is yet to be back home since yesterday

Where has he gone?

He's been held by some navy men at some workshop, say the Policemen

They won't allow outsiders there

He had called me a little while back

Asked whether you could go there

[SNIFFLES]

Don't think bad of me, brother.. I do not have any other option

I don't have anyone else to tell

Don't cry..Let me see

[PHONE RESTS ON THE CRADLE]

Sivankutty - Yes

Gather the boys, leave Ajas out - OK, brother

[INDISCERNIBLE VOICE FROM INSIDE]

Oh.. are you having tea from here? Come on, let's have the rest at home,

[METAL CLANGS]

[HINDI] Who are you? What do you want?

Bro, this is a different territory

Even the local Police won't enter here

Sounds like you are from some alien space

Who told you that I am local?

If you make me one, this garage will become a mourning house

He was caught with our captain's wife right beneath her bed

If you are so particular..

Let his wife come and kneel down, says the Captain

He was under the bed, not her ***, right? - Peter, language...

Sivankutty, wait outside with Able I'll call

About kneeling down...

As she was raised by Varkey and Annamma of Anjootty family...

..that's not an option

If you want I will do that..

Let me take him home and come back to kneel down

Then you try that..

Hey nephews.. Uncle..

.. there will be three at a time, for each for us

You know that I'd get you out of any hell hole, if she cried

If at all she cries again for you, it will be at your wake, mind it

[DOOR OPENS AND SHUTS]

I am done being humiliated in front of the kids and my family

Please don't put me through this again

Aren't you ashamed? Don't we have two grown up kids?

Do you care about the girl growing up in this house?

You.. [SHE STRUGGLES]

My brother is not too far Shall I call him again?

Huh..

I will live the way I feel like, if you don't like it, you can leave

Then I would like to see that

Look, don't make me stoop low

How much lower could you stoop?

Do you want to see? Yes, I do

[BABY COOES]

[CRIB TOY TINKLES]

[TINKLING CONTINUES]

[AFTERSHAVE BOTTLE THUDS]

Would your old man come to polish this?

Why do you stare at me?

[SHOE THUDS]

I will drown you in the kitchen well..

[CAR DOOR OPENS]

[CAR ENGINE REVS UP]

Hey..Peter..son, have your breakfast

Oh God..he hasn't eaten a thing

She must have said some thing to hurt him

[CAR APPROACHES]

[DOOR SHUTS CLOSE]

Hello, Molly sis

Alice, don't you've works in the clinic?

Today is Sunday, sister.. Remove those glasses and have a look around

I came with mom's medicines

Oh..your sugar candy pills

Is your Homeo even a medicine?

Michael told me that he has made mutton biriyani

Why do you let people loose-lip? Don't you have anything to eat there?

Will anything be a match for the biriyani Michael cooks for me ?

Anyway, your glasses are awesome

Thank you, no mention please

[PILLS RATTLE]

Good that you bring this sugar pills now and again

Is it?

All my ailments go away with your medicine

Aren't you meeting him?

Is that even a question, mom?

See you mom Alright

Mmm..Molly seems to be not impressed with my visit

Even I am not, let alone Molly

What was that?

Nothing, you take a seat

Tell me how this biriyani tastes

Hmm.. Is it dum biriyani?

It was the initial plan, then I got slothful

Made it in the cooker..seven- eight whistles were enough for the meat

Open cooking for another eight- nine minutes after adding the rice

Biriyani is ready, sloth biriyani [SHE CHUCKLES]

How is Susan?

The same decade -old confusion, her condition is pathetic

The same road I walked some years back

Why don't you ask her to walk out of it?

There should be a limit for everything

I think it is high time for her to give up on that marriage

There is a difference between you and her

Your's was a golden cross your family imposed upon you

Her's, a wooden cross of her own choice

As far as I know she regrets it now

Mmm..your sloth biriyani is excellent

[MOTORBIKE APPROACHES]

Why are we entering by the rear side?

Come on, Steffi.. Does the side matter? What we need is to get in

How is the place? My brother and I own it

Seems like abandoned, you guys don't look after this property?

Actually Steffi..

Brother and I had some amazing plans for this place

Some stupid old geezers in the family did not get it

So we have put it on hold for the time being

Come with me, will show you the rest

Just follow me..

[LOCK CLINGS]

The lock gets stuck at times [DOOR CREAKS OPEN]

Come on in

[DOOR SHUTS CLOSE]

No matter how stupid those geezers may be, what a fortune they've amassed!

We too had elders ...

..who simply sat and farted the whole life, eating tapioca and yam

Don't knock me down like this, dear

Leave it..

So..you are not going to Kottayam today, right?

We could stay here..I have brought chilled beer

Huh.. Shall I open? [THEY CHUCKLE]

I will go..you can hold your chilled one in your hand

Heh.. - Hey..

[DOORS SHUT CLOSE]

In Europe there are many pubs and restaurants in old buildings like this

As if you lived in Europe

The only problem will be deciding what to do with the extra space

If we step up, we can start by Christmas with a show by the band, 13 AD

Sure we can..

[DOOR OPENS]

Who let you in? Why are you here?

I have the permission of who ever concerned

Better you guys clear off before my brother gets to know

Why should I go?

Uncle Michael gave me the keys? Where did you get it? Let me ask him

Not only him, ask your dad who got run over by the locals

[THEY SCUFFLE]

We are starting a cafe here, Uncle Michael has allowed

What cafe?

You are not going to start nothing

You sniff around him, don't you dare come to me when you get the boot

Come with me..

Please come, Steffi..

What a lousy costume!

Did you select this? No sir

Then who did, the director? No sir, the producer did

Ah..

Is he around? He is in the next room

It's OK, if the character demands, isn't it?

Absolutely...

...or else there won't be any character left to play

Come in..

Sir..shoe

Hmm...sorry

Hurry up

Is the hero ready?

Getting ready, sir.. He is doing make-up

Hell with his make up, ask him to get ready, now

Made real suckers of us What?

We are screwed.. that's it

Hey.. Sir..

Give me the microphone Pack up

Step aside, you..

Pack everything up

[THUDS]

How did it go? How is the place?

It's an excellent spot bro, nothing to think of

Then let's talk to uncle Michael

Paul was there

He got a little worked up

Did you make a scene? A thin one

Let me be clear, Ami. Get in to this only if you could set aside your aggression

You should be aware that uncle Michael gave you the keys

Brother, I did not do anything, they were also there

Ami did not do anything, it was brother Paul who started it

That's not the issue, son I know his temper

Business is no child's play

Brother Please try to be a little better, Ami.

They used to run the warehouse in Mattanchery, right, Michael?

Before passing it on to Ami, It was proper for you to have a word with them

They are slightly disappointed about that, so am I

Can't say they were running it, brother, they were ruining it

It was closed three and a half years back

I gave the key to Mani sir, as it was rusting here

Now coming to the propriety you said..

Mani sir will give you an account of that

[PAGE TURNS OVER]

In the last three years, Peter and Paul's prawn farm, seafood company, and boats..

...have incurred a total loss of Rs. 24 million for the family business

They are yet to settle the accounts of the film shooting, despite repeated reminders

Not even my dad had asked me for account statements, mind you

Peter, please don't ..

He will ask anyone to settle the bills, even if it's his own father or yours

That's my instruction

You know, Ajas started with one

Now he has five super markets

A major chunk of our family business comes from their super markets and fuel pumps

That is why I handed over the warehouse to them.. you can't be jealous of that

Your sheets have only debit column, no credit column at all

So, you may please go on with your feckless life

Please don't try to help with the family business

You may leave

Brother, I am doing this to keep this ship afloat

Please try to talk them some sense if you have some time..

I am not wary about telling anybody anything

I don't understand why you keep mum, when he talks

He is your younger brother, not dad.. isn't it?

If at all he f***s with me again, he will see my real face

The camera is booked for five days, right? What are you talking about?

Camera..my foot !

Lost your tongue or what, on seeing your uncle?

Did you pee your pants?

Oh.. you always fly high on liquid courage

Listen.. I've seen that Michael you guys have never seen or known of

The Michael who came from the law school when brother Paily was murdered

After the funeral he, along with Ali barged in to their house

Two of them ended up floating in the backwaters of Kochi, before next dawn

I still remember him standing in front of our dad, blood soaked, after taking revenge

You won't have opened your mouth, had you seen that version of him

['TERMINATOR' PLAYS ON THE VCP]

Mmm..mom..

Ain't uncle Michael ditched you? Aren't you ashamed?

He didn't ditch me.. His situation was like that

I was ready to wait until he was released from the prison

He said no Why?

He did not want another Fatima there at Anjootty family, what else?

My bad that I asked .. heh..!

You don't know your grandma, she was not the same back then

That's how that tragedy, your dad came in to my life

Not just a tragedy, but a disaster

What a timing!

[PLATE CLANGS]

Hello..

[ACTION SEQUENCE PLAYS ON THE TV]

What movie are you watching?

Oh God.. guns and fire all over

Why don't you buy one of these? Ten seconds, job done

What an advice!

Uncle Michael is already fearsome Nobody even dares to rag me at college

Now with a gun, it won't be any better

That's because of their love and respect for him, isn't it good?

Oh.. I don't think it's love and respect

[FILM CONTINUES TO PLAY ON TV]

This is your fourth cigarette

Then let's round it off with a fifth one

Brother Mathai has gone blind of the affection for his boys

Even the poison they give, would taste pastry for him

My dad didn't greet me with a garland, when I became a murderer instead of a lawyer

Since then I haven't seen him smiling until his death

Grace was right..

Nobody has love or respect for me, it's only fear they have

The fear I created from my fear of losing the family

Is there anything new? Nothing, the same stuff only

There is a special story on James - A vote bank in the dark

[HE CHUCKLES]

Hey..is he in? - Yes, get in

Things don't appear to be going so well in Delhi, Michael.

When madam was alive, I used to buy fresh mullet fish from Kumbalangi...

..and catch the morning flight to Delhi

Any thing was possible over a fish curry lunch back then

There was nothing to worry as long as mullet was available in our back waters

Now the situation has changed

Her son and his foreign wife are no mullet fans...

I tried many dishes with mullet, but they want salmon

How can we get salmon here in Kochi back waters?

You cut the crap, James

Michael, elections are round the corner, I am worried

There are almost ten thousand votes across three colonies here

The colonies situated in your family property

I will be safe if you step in for me, just a word, that will do

You may please assure me those votes

Dear James..

You might have fed your Delhi masters with mullet from Kochi

But the people of Kochi gained nothing by electing you

They are well aware of this, so even if I support you, it won't work this time

It's different matter whether I'd step in for you or not

Michael, please don't give up on me at this point, I don't have any other option

James, there is a saying ...

'Doomed are those who don't learn from their own mistakes'

We the people have been doomed for the last two three terms

This time we Kochiites want to make things right

So, don't waste you time and ...

..find some where else to cook your lentils

Off you go..

James, shall I serve lunch? We have roasted prawns and lentils

Hell with the lentil

Why are you idling here? Don't you have any where to go?

Uncle, we have already lost it We are told not to do any business

He is with them now

Soon we will have to submit bills for even the drinking water

We are fed up of this step motherly treatment

Heh..so, you too got the boot

Only a mother could understand her children's worries

There is no use telling their dad

I lost my peace of mind watching them suffer in solitude.

So, everybody wants the same thing- peace of mind

We have hit rock bottom, uncle

Don't get too worked up, let's find a way around

[CIGAR LIGHTER CLICKS]

[CHURCH CHOIR SINGS]

[CHOIR SINGING A CHRISTMAS SONG]

Father..

Ah..James..

Keep this.. You keep on practicing

So, what's up James

Heard you are winding up your studio, Prakashavani, is it true?

Not shining brightly anyways, the studio is running at loss

Anyone we approach for a loan will ask,

"Why don't you take it from your own home?"

Then, what's going on here?

Thought of releasing one final cassette before winding up...

The last supper The title rocks

There you are, let's go to the parish house

Have you met Michael? Will he help?

He not only won't but probably will torpedo us as well

Father, now the church is my only resort

Best !

We can issue a pastoral letter by the Bishop, if you want

But I don't think it'd work this time

If I utter your name in the church, the people won't even spare me

Those losers will heed to Michael only

You need me only for donations and to hush up your sexpeditions

You may play Pontius Pilate when I am in need

What nonsense are you talking, James? Don't you know the situation?

I can't even have a meal from my own house

I just met Peter and Paul, they look very down in the mouth

Who is not?

Fr. Simon..

What about doing a death knell ?

It's far beyond our capabilities

We cannot do that, but the Kocheri crew can

All we need to do is to sit back and watch

The Kocheri couple is well past the expiration date, How could they do it?

Not them? Then whom are you talking about?

When Michael took out the Kocheri brothers..

..the elder one Madhavan's wife Rema was seven months pregnant with their son

After giving birth she moved to Bombay so that the baby won't be raised here

But, when the boy came here for vacations...

He'd been thoroughly brainwashed by his grand parents

Now he has become one of the biggest perps in Bombay, it's heard

As in pervert?

You always think dirty, Perp as in perpetrator, the villain

Have you heard of the D-company?

Do you know who Bada Rajan and Chota Rajan are?

Our guy is Bada Rajan, Rajan Madhavan Nair

The antichrist of St. Michael

[RECITING RAMAYANA]

[ARANYAKANTA- THE ENTRY OF SHOORPANAKHA]

Brother Pillai, do you remember me?

Oh..James the dog of Anjooty How can I forget you?

So you haven't forgotten.. Dogs are said to be thankful animals

Elections must be round the corner, right?

No.. I think both of our goals have been aligned now

Don't beat around the bush Cut the chase, man

There are some problems inside the Anjooty family

If we do something now everything will come down crashing

What could two incapacitated oldies do to bring them down?

As per rumours, I know at least one secret of most of the households here

So, I know about 30-year old secret weapon in Bombay

It's time to launch him

If he comes in now, we are ready to give the necessary ground support

What the hell are you on about? It's been some time now

Either talk loudly or come close to me

I can't hear a word Karthyayani..

He says it's time for Rajan boy to get in to the act

What? It's time for Rajan to come from Bombay

Is it? Yeah..

OK..Got it

[HINDI] For whom are these?

For his father and uncle

Have you tasted the food served for the departed?

If their souls have been freed they will come and have it happily with us

Whenever I do this for my Madhavan and Sudevan, I taste them after..

Each and every dish...the taste won't be gone, as they have not touched it

They are still roaming around here

Granny, before I go back to Bombay we will do this ritual once again

This time no dish will remain untasted by them

[PILLAI LAUGHS]

[HINDI] Why don't you eat?

He speaks Hindi! [BOTH OF THEM LAUGH]

Have it ...

[CAR APPROACHES]

Do we need to open? Do it

Come..

Come..

Have your seat

Uncle Michael, he is my friend from Bombay..

They are the managing directors of Rajan & Rajan associates

If we can shift the people of Santom colony to somewhere else

We can build a five star hotel there

A joint venture with us holding the majority of the shares

We are not building any star hotel displacing those people in the colony

Haven't I told you in no uncertain terms not to engage in any business?

This is not for us, the offer is for you to be the managing partner

We will be there for you as helping hands

[HE CHOMPS]

The kid is from Kocheri family

Who are you at the Kocheri family, son?

I am the grand son of Iravi Pillai

Father's name?

I am Rajan Madhavan Nair, son of late Madhavan

He didn't die, he was murdered, wasn't he?

Guess, that's a case I've already disposed of

If you've come to settle that score, these dummies won't suit

[PETER SNIFFS]

If this was about some revenge, I would have come where ever you wanted

Uncle, I don't have to come here just for revenge

Could've sent some one from Bombay with 500 bucks and a lower class train ticket

You don't know us.. you should ask around in Bombay

You could have asked you father about me ..

[CHUCKLES] alas, now it's not possible

That might not be possible, but I've known you since I was in my mother's womb.

From about the seventh month..

Heard the rest of your stories from my grandparents

Now you tell me, how can we collaborate in business?

Piss off, now.. haven't you heard him?

Sivankutty, they are from Bombay You need to say it in Hindi

[HINDI] Get lost..

See you..

Go, talk to him..

Rajan

Rajan..

We are extremely sorry, Rajan

It's absolutely fine, Peter

We have more business to do

Bro, have a tea..get energised - With your tea !

Bro, is there any connection between Tata and Bata?

No wonder you get beaten up from everywhere..

Ami bro, tea..?

No, thanks, Jaison ..are you OK? - I'm good, bro

Can I take you car tomorrow? Planning a trip to Athirappilly

You want to go for a trip, don't you? - What's the matter bro?

Do you think everyone else is a fool ?

I am talking about you and Rachael

Actually I was about to tell you

This could go real bad, Ami..Aren't they known to us from the childhood?

We have past that stage, bro..

We can talk it through

If at all it goes wrong, Mom and I won't be backing you, I swear

Meet you at home, bro

Haven't you slept?

You seem too stressed out, What's going on with you?

Ami says he and Rachael are a thing

They don't have to be concerned, but we do

What's wrong in it? Isn't she a good girl ? I like her

Let them marry, they would make an awesome couple

Can you please shut your mouth, Rasi ?

I'm going insane; don't play naive with me now

You are getting worked up for nothing What if everything works fine?

Come on, have some sleep

[AZAN FROM A DISTANT MOSQUE]

[MAT RUSTLES]

Have you been waiting for long?

No brother, I have just come Take a seat

Ajas bro, it's our well thought out decision

Dear, Have you thought of the consequences when your family finds out?

I cannot live with out him, brother

Do Able and aunty know about this?

No..

It won't be easy when Mom and others get to know about us.

Emotional blackmail will be a sure thing

Hope somebody understands us

I am sure that uncle Michael will

Else we have Alice aunty to convince them

Then there's my father... who cares?

What about eloping? [SHE CHUCKLES]

You didn't believe us, now see for yourself.

Didn't I forewarn you not to sniff around him?

You.. Able..

Come here.. Get off my hand, Paul

If you dare bringing shame to the family, by going out with a Muslim

I know what to do

As if you don't bring any shame to the family

I know how to live my life and the last thing I want is advice from you

Hey Rachael, don't shut the door

Open the door, Rachael

[HE SLAMS THE DOOR] Open the door,

This is our family matter, you step away

They are also part of this family You family might be in the church

So, what's this discussion all about?

Uncle Michael, Ami and I are in love for long

We will live together, no matter what

Is it true?

We were waiting for her exams to be over to tell everyone

We didn't want to startle you guys, uncle Michael

Do you have anything to say, Fati?

I had once stood here like this

Mom and Dad lavished me with affection, then

.. and that will be my answer to you as well

What about you?

I have nothing against anyone's love

What I have to say is to Rachael. This is entirely your choice.

But my daughter should not have the same fate as me

What ill-fate have you suffered, heh?

There is no need for a family meeting to decide my daughter's future

Hey, keep your voice in check, Mom is inside

You and my sister too had stood in front of our Dad like this..

Do you remember what he said, Mr. Martin Rajadurai?

'We need to stand with those who have taken that decision to live together'

That was our family's decision and it still stands

What kind of a family is this, where the uncle f***s with anything and everything?

As her father, I will make decisions about my daughter's life

Calm down, brother in law

You are right, uncle

He is the one who takes decisions on my wife and my dad's wife

How the hell is he interfering in everybody's matters?

This is exactly what I am asking for a while in this family

As per your granddad's will, Michael is the custodian of the entire property

He decides who gets it, and that makes him powerful

My foot.. you don't have the guts, that's all

Your dad should have done this when his old man made his will

Michael became this gnome because your dad didn't have the guts

Those guys are all over there already, If Ami marries Rachael, that would be it

Then you guys can file a pauper suit and enroll as official beggars

You are right, it was my fault to marry your sister and make these two sons

What? You don't have anything to say?

Oh..What am I supposed to say?

Ain't I the one who was given over to the church?

Don't waste your time for this round table, If you have any idea, spit it out

Or else I will do things my way

Uncle, if you have our back we know what to do

Peter, you can count me in for anything in this matter

Uncle, come with me What are you gonna do, Peter?

Dad, you keep mum, as always The Kocheri crew will take care of the rest

Let's go

See you then

Come

[HINDI] You guys eat beef right?

No beef, only onion curry Onion curry !

[HE LAUGHS]

Hi brother..

Welcome

Our uncle, T V James, the MP

Nice to meet you, sir Hi..

Ahem..

So..politics, law enforcement, religion...

You have that lethal combination, Peter

You can do any crazy sh** anytime, period

But the problem is that, we can't be in the play

We can arrange anything behind the scene

Don't worry about that, you just sit back and relax

We will play upfront

[HE SIGHS]

Hmm...

Majeed was the right hand man of Varkey

Majeed's son Ali was with him when Michael came here that day

Had not Ali blocked Sudevan's hack on Michael...

He would have dropped dead here itself

Now Michael is flanked by Ali's sons

Take out one of them, he will fall eventually

What are you talking about?

About drowning them in the backwaters

if you drown them in the back waters, the body might not wash up on shore

That should not happen ... He should get to see the body

Hmmm..

Ajas bro did a stunner

Haven't seen him this happy since long

We was so much worried about us

[SMOOCHES]

Hmm...

[CAR SCRATCHES ALONG]

Ami, don't go..listen to me Stop, you..

[DOOR SHUTS CLOSE]

Who the hell..

Peter....you..

Peter...

Ami...

Come on..have this

We need to drink it totally won't you?

Aren't you hungry?

[BABY COOES]

Rasi, can you get me some water?

You've been drinking a lot of water

I am feeling so nervous.. don't know why

Ami has not come yet!

He will come, Mom

Seems he has come

[BABY CRIES]

Its Rahim Come on in, son..

Where is Ami?

[CHAIR SCRAPES]

Take the baby

What is the matter?

Where is Ami?

Ami was attacked

Means what? - Somebody...

He's gone, brother..

What..what..? Mom...

He has gone nowhere, mom..

Do you remember when dad bought bicycles for both of you?

He never rode his bicycle, he always wanted to ride pillion with you

I used to ask him who he wanted to be when grew up

He would always say that he wants to become you

You were his hero..

[CAR HONKS]

Where the hell are you going?

Has anyone ever asked you this question?

Stop there, you.. Tell me where you are going

Utter another word, I will thrash you I won't even think you are my father

Don't make me do that

How does it go?

They were outsiders

They rented the car from Pinto of Porkkinkoodu

The night before Ami was killed..

.. Peter and Paul were seen with Pinto at Seagull bar

Ajas.. I ..

Ajas ..let me talk...

Get off ...

They fingered my boy for Rajan Kocheri, I am told

What made you create a scene here based on some hearsay?

You are not sure, right? You may go, Ajas

When my dad died, I did whatever you said..

Don't ask me to do the same again, Uncle Michael

You leave, I say

I have heard many things about brother Ali's accident

When Ajas lost it then, it was me and Fati who got him under control

If at all he loses control again, nobody could stop him

If there is any fact in what he said, he will finish you

If he could not, I will do it..

You can start preparing the invitee list for the memorial service of your sons

[CAR APPROACHES]

What has he done? Was he alone?

I can't even sit, Father

He is Ali's offspring, he would have done even worse

One hell of a crazy dude he is

[HINDI] Don't worry

How could you tell us not to worry? You don't know these boys of Kochi

Didn't you say you'd take care of it? Look at how he's beaten them to a pulp

Rachael has not come back home after his death

Now mom and son have also left

I don't have any doubt or confusion

It was my Ami who's gone

Everybody knows who all are behind this

Whoever it may be, I want that score settled, uncle Michael

I was angry that they hid it from me, but..

I'd not thought of killing him in wildest of my dreams

They were saying that if they'd Dad's support, the Kocheries' d take care of it

After that, brothers Peter and Paul left our house with uncle James

James sir..

If brother Michael gets wind of this, even the leaning cross can't save us

What are you thinking?

I put up with this, only because of these kids

Once he laid hand on me saying that it was the Kocheries who helped him...

..in a graft case when dad and brother Paily bro refused to interfere

When Paily bro found out, he beat the crap out of him

Brother Paily was on the way back, after that punch-up when he was murdered

I won't be surprised if Martin had a role in the murders of brothers Paily and Ali

Bro, I'm not sure if it's appropriate to add this to it...

That day, Ali and I returned together from Rameswarm..

After dropping me home, he was on the way to meet Martin

That was when he met with the accident..

Had you voiced your concerns before our brothers were buried..

..we could have kept the body count to one, inside the family

Now the count would go up

James, that sounds like the death knell

Who is your real problem, Ajas or Michael?

Do you have a cigarette?

Bastards, if you dare f***ing with me, I swear by the leaning cross..

I'll cut up and throw you to the dogs

Leave then, let's go brother..

Hands off me..

Who's Alice?

He's calling you

How many days have it been?

Three

Don't worry, I'll live

[SIGHS IN DESPAIR]

He is not finished yet

Seems, they have some hints

I'd told you in no uncertain terms that this is beyond our capabilities, James

Then you were dying to taste the Bombay duck

Look brother, if he gets out of that hospital, we are done

Would you please shut up, Paul?

He will take time to get discharged

Mean while, we have to be careful about the cases

You may shift Susan and kids to somewhere

They are not going to come with me

I will take care of them

Talk to brother David, ask him to send the boys- Yes

Both of you are wanted there

Where are they, Susan and kids?

They went back by noon when Alice sis came

That call is for you, sister

Sis..are you safe there?

Yes we are, how are you now? I am alright

I was there for you whenever you called up, until now

It will remain that way for ever, got me?

I am taking back the cross you are bearing Ajas will do it for me ..

This is the real manifesto of James which nobody knows of

Let his voters know about what he's made by feeding his masters with mullet

The same people who voted him will have him roasted

Uncle Michael gave this

Have your seats

[PAPER RUSTLES]

That would be enough to put you away for ten years, the least

Uncle Michael says that the central agencies will have a blast with these

Hell with you and your uncle Michael Get lost..

Isn't he on his last legs?

You think, he can put me away for years, I will be out in less than a week.

Yes, he told that too..

So, we will be waiting here when you come back

Alright then, see you

I have heard people saying many things about Simon

For the sake of our family, I've been hoping it's not true

I am stopping my prayers for him

Both of you go and meet that girl and her mother

Sure..

Reassure them that we will run the case against Fr.Simon

Let him get de-frocked and spend some prison time

If he gives us gyp even after, we can read the office of the dead

[SNIFFLES]

Fr. Simon threatened to kill us if we talked

That's why we kept mum

Nobody will touch you, this is uncle Michael's word

Peter and Paul are not two persons but one

Both are spoilt brats, one reckless and the other arrogant, with little sense

They couldn't have gone far

Won't even try to flee, as they will be penniless

Nab them, no matter where they hide

I will call you back ..ahem..

This is our family matter, you stay back here

This time uncle Michael won't come to rescue you

You are not going to survive today

It's uncle Michael's order

That's for you

You are being spared of his benevolence

You may go to Rameswaram, take your dad and mom with you

You can live there running our fisheries company

Never come back to Kochi, not even for the carnival

Where can we meet Rajan boy of Kocheri?

Boys from Bombay have arrived I will be there in half hour

Al right, come..

Don't be shocked..This's his order from Bombay

Says, there should be only one Rajan in Bombay

I expected a little more decency from Michael of Anjootty

I was always a step ahead of you

You chose the wrong time and place, as you always do

You could have heeded your mother's advice and settled there

I didn't want to take the blame for killing the father and the son as well

But, this is not my game, I wouldn't have come here to watch this either

But I wanted an assurance, for Ami and Sivankutty

Let's go

I really feel sorry for you.At this age you could be playing with grand kids.

Here we can't say whatever happened was happened for good..

.. nor do the things that are going to happen

You may just pray to God for a good death, the least

I will be coming with a wreath

What..?

Nothing, I was asking him to do something good. You can also try..

Hmm..

We're not staying for the tea

What did he say?

[WALKING STICK THUDS]

Our parents poured kerosene on themselves when they arrived to evict us

Everyone was watching while they burnt to death

They did not even allow us to bury them there

When our parents sleep six feet under, all of them are living happily

It hurts, brother..

I want to put them to sleep..

Once upon a time a brother had said...

'Give me a place to stand, I will move the whole earth'

So, first of all you need a place to stand.. then we will move it

We will take up this case from where they stopped
