'HITLIST'

[alarm beeping]

[mobile ringing]

- 'Where are you?' - I'm leaving

Ma, is breakfast ready?

2 minutes Almost done

Maa?

Don't pinch me What is it?

Ask my brother to talk to me, ma

2 days since he spoke to me

I'll tell him

Late again, huh?

I got delayed getting my children ready for school and dropping them

First go and rescue the 'dosa' from being charred

Okay, madam

Listen

Why don't you talk to your sister?

What big crime did she commit?

If someone is eve-teasing or ragging her in school

Either report to the Principal

Or else

She should tell us

She will take matters in her hand Should we sit and watch?

'Then why are we here?'

I told her I won't talk to her for a whole week

It's only been 2 days till date

Tell him, ma

Listen to me

Doesn't matter if you don't talk to her

Drop her in school on your way to work

You go and drop her I'll take the bike

- Bro - Aiyo! This chap!

'I shouldn't show this to him'

Step in, it's getting late

You go, I forgot my key

Your keys are right there

I know, you go, bye

Bro, I think your wife is calling you

Hey! Why did you grab that?

[rat squeaking]

Isn't it a sin to kill a living thing?

Is it okay if it takes my life out?

How did it harm you?

Hey! It bit my TV, fridge, sofa anything and everything

What's worse, my shirt, pant and underwear are in tatters

You be safe, bro

It bit my 'safety' to bits!

That's why my wife is expecting our 3rd baby!

- Congrats! - Give it to me

Hey! Give it

Aiyaiyo! Why is it in such a tearing hurry?

Hey wifey! Come here This madcap let out the rat

Thank God the rat escaped!

You love to catch a rat and let it escape and catch it again

Your job 24x7!

Gone case! We'll be catching the damn rat tonight too!

Come home, my first job is to kill you!

- Come in, why look there? - What can I do if it runs away?

- Hi anna - Hi

'Hi Vijay'

Hi

[ringtone from film 'Chandi Veeran']

Your phone is ringing

Sorry

Vijay?

Yes

I want to talk to you

Personal or official?

Personal

I'll see you in the evening after office hours

You wanted to talk to Vijay personally?

That's my personal business, move aside

How can it still be 'personal' after I happened to hear it?

Tell me

What?

Love, huh?

How can it be love from the word go?

First step is dating, right?

Dating? With 'sir'!

Sooper, my dear

Why are you making a face?

Green chiretta brew

- Huh? - Not only 'nilavembu'

Neem flower 'rasam' Pippali root soup

Heart pea 'dosa' Tapioca 'dhal'

'Palmyra fruit dumpling'

'Add one more to this feast'

'Look, sir is enjoying every mouthful'

Finger millet porridge Organic food

Good for health

Just try, you'll love it

Next

Full romantic movie, eh?

[scene from 'Kadaisi Vivasayi]

'Wake up, sir We have to water the fields'

Ma'am, want a tissue?

Wow!

This is reality for you

What's next? Finally in the weekend

Pub, right?

Yes

Enjoy your drinks, ma'am

Cheers!

This is the damnnnn reality!

Then you mean

He isn't my 'Mr Right'?

Now do you realize why all the girls in our office call him 'bro'?

Because all of them tried dating him!

[mobile ringing]

Pccht! Damn this phone

- Not getting disconnected - Hello

- You wanted to talk to me personally? - No...nothing

It's okay, tell me

Nothing...nothing

- Just tell - Nothing, 'na

Nothing...nothing at all

- Aishu - 'Bye, anna!'

Aishwarya

How strange! Police car in our area?

Must be wanting their palms greased

What's with the siren?

Something is fishy

Call our boys

- Tell me, bro - Bloody! Come here

- Hurry up - Hey! Hello?

Where are you?

We are dead meat

'I thought all of them will be in the sea But they are swarming in the shore'

'Sir, like a lion is to the jungle'

Like the whale rules the sea

Similarly, for this seashore and entire neighborhood

Er...Kali is the king, sir

Confronting Kali without a Special Force team

Er...like this

Meeting him alone face to face

I don't think it will turn out well, sir

'Safer to go back, sir'

'Sir...?'

[song from 2016 film 'Dharma Durai']

Check them

'Selling salt to the sea?'

'Didn't I caution you, sir?'

Be it a lion or a whale

Only when the hunter stalks

All the beasts should panic!

Cigarette smoking is injurious to health

Hold

- I don't smoke - Not cigarette

I meant hold my gun

Give it, sir

If anyone tries to cross the line

- Just shoot - Sir?

- What is it? - You forgot your file

Please go, sir

Looks like sir is simmering with rage! Offer him something cold to drink

Taking a dig?

To all the politicians who ensured your files are layered with dust

And corporate firms

You are now their enemy

Following their orders your count is 36 murders

You have gathered a lot of enmity

The boys are waiting impatiently and competing to close your chapter

All I need to do is signal with my eyes

'They will finish you off'

[mobile ringing]

- Sir? - Hey! ACP

'You will rejoice if we are at loggerheads'

Under the pretext of mediating don't jinx it like the malefic Saturn!

Switch to speaker mode and give it to Kali

'Kali, apparently you are asking for a mere 10% partnership'

'You know Sharma is willing to part with 20% as commission?'

Money is everything, man Is partnership the priority?

'Just take the cash and compromise, instead-'

He's planning to kill our 'brother'

You want me to compromise with him?

Hey! Is your brother dead or what?

'To the extent Kali is important to our Party'

'Corporate is equally important'

Okay, shall I inform our Party leader you have settled for a compromise?

Sir, Kali nodded his head

Give the green signal

These politicians

Corporate

I am not taking sides or mediating

But I don't know why I've been transferred from South Madras to North Madras

After I settle into the office here if your brothers and you

Dare create any trouble in my jurisdiction

You will be topmost in my hit list

I will send you to your grave!

Who the hell is he?

Yov! Move, man

[honking loudly]

Hey! Move, I say

Yov! Move your damn car

Sorry, sir Sorry, sir

Go...get going

Your driver ran for his life

Who will drive the car now?

Sheer bliss!

I love sitting in your car cross legged in cool comfort

And you in the driver seat

I feel on top of the world, boss

'You have forgotten all that I did for you'

'And now with the help of ministers and ACP'

'You have the gall to threaten me?'

My dear boss!

Wherever you pointed your finger

In all those spots like a hound dog

I pounced, tearing them apart and I sent so many people to their grave

For your sake

Today

You are a millionaire!

Business man

'Top cat in our society'

If I hadn't obeyed your orders

Would you be enjoying this name and fame, boss?

Kali

You asked me for only 10%

But I promised to pay you 20% commission

If not enough, tell me I will give you more

Let's resolve this issue, Kali

Boss

Money is not at all a problem for you

You'll give whatever I demand

But

You refuse a partnership

You don't have the heart to put us on an equal footing with you, boss

Anyway you intend to backstab me

I'll take one step forward and do the honors!

Bro, what are you doing?

You bloody mongrel!

Infiltrating from North India down here you can make it big here with your business

But the same doesn't hold good for us, huh?

You deserve to die, eff you!

If you squeal to the minister and ACP

You think they can take action against me?

Die, you damn vagabond!

Die

Your death

It will elevate my respect and status even more

- Come, anna - Let go of me

Enough, step out

Won't take me as your partner?

People are watching, boss

- Step out - Leave me alone

You dare bribe me with your crappy commission!

Why are you doing this?

'Are we your slaves?'

Why did you stab him here? This is ACP's area

Next in my list is that Asst Commissioner of Police

Sir, despite your serious warning

Kali has finished off that business man in our area

I know You can go

'How can he practice true compassion if he eats animal flesh to feed his own?'

Snuffing a living being's breath to build one's own body

And eating it claiming nourishment

Poet Valluvar is questioning his compassion quotient

To quote Saint Vallalar

'I wilted, whenever I saw crops wither'

Imagine the extent of compassion embedded in his heart

To feel sad for crops!

Spirituality isn't only praying and performing rituals

To love all beings like your own is spirituality

Now let me come to the point

People always ask me and Kumudha madam just 1 question

Without eating meat

How can one succeed as a sportsman or athlete?

Or a body builder Or serve in our army?

That is the reason Kumudha madam is launching this app

In this app if you upload your non vegetarian diet plan

It will sort out the equivalent perfect vegetarian diet plan

I request all of you to try this app

Thank you and let's save millions of lives

Next we call upon Kumudha madam's husband

Chief Guest ACP Yazhvendan to address the gathering

Greetings to everyone

I've attended many functions

But

No one has addressed me as Kumudha's husband Mr Yazhvendan!

But still I am very happy to hear

I don't want to comment about your 'ahimsa' vegetarian concept

The world I live in and your world are poles apart

But if people change accepting your concept

I'll be very happy

Please use this Go Vegan app

Anyway, thank you for inviting me to this function

Especially Vijay

Thank you Vanakkam

'Now our Chief Guest will launch our 'Go Vegan' app'

Thank you so much

I'll take leave, sir

Yazh, actually Vijay helped in designing this app

- Not only that- - I know, dear

Your mentor, well wisher, influencer

I can keep piling more praise

Nothing like that, sir

Ma'am wants to do something good

- I'm only supporting her - Okay

Let me send off other guests

- You both carry on - Sure

- Vijay - Sir?

If you don't get me wrong can I ask you something?

Sir, please feel free

Even the vegetable we eat is classified as 'living thing'

Sir

We refer to fruits and veggies as seeds

Because they-

Sorry, sir

[mobile ringing]

They don't have their own eyes, ears, heart, blood, none of these

That's why now egg is considered vegetarian

[mobile ringing again]

Very sorry, sir

Take the call May be important

- Let me take leave, Vijay - Sure, sir

- Nice meeting you - Nice meeting you, sir, thank you

[mobile ringing]

Pcccht!

- Hello - 'What is this?'

'You keep cutting my calls'

'How long will a man wait after kidnapping your mother and sister?'

Hello, whom do you want to speak to?

- Please check the # and call - 'My dear boy Vijay'

'To understand the seriousness of this situation will take you'

'At least 2 hours'

'Then you will wait for my call'

'The number you're calling is out of network coverage area'

'Please try later'

'The number you have called has been switched off'

- Sir...sir...sir - Stop

Vijay, what are you doing?

A stranger just called me

Claimed he has kidnapped my mother and sister, sir

I tried calling him back but his # is not reachable

I called my mother and sister Both their phones are switched off, sir

I'm really scared, sir

Vijay, such prank calls are common these days

- But this is serious, sir - Trust his experience, no?

Don't get flustered He will handle it

No, my mother and sister won't resort to prank calls, sir

- Devaraj - Sir?

Trace the phone calls of Vijay's mother and sister immediately

Okay, sir

- Check the spot the signal was cut off - Yes, sir

- Also trace the unknown calls - Yes, sir

- Akilan - Sir

- Send Lingam with Vijay - Okay, sir

Vijay, my officer Lingam will accompany you

Take him home with you

After you both reach home, we'll decide

Okay, sir

Don't worry

Amma?

Keerthi...?

Sir, I am telling you they are not at home

Why are you flustered, Vijay?

Call your friends or relatives

Hello, aunty

- Did my amma come to your place? - 'No, Vijay, what happened?'

Sir, she didn't go there

Okay, come and sit here

Try calling your sister's friends

Hello Vaishu

- Did Keerthi come to your house? - 'No, anna'

Sir, not there either

Okay...okay Vijay, relax

Do you have water?

Sir, I don't want water

Not for you I'm feeling thirsty!

You get into a panic state and you'll make me panic too

I want water to drink

Thank you

Where is the CCTV control room?

Sir, that's my amma and Keerthi

Those two, right?

Give this video to the area patrol and ask them to check

Okay, sir

'TN 13B 6337 Red color Swift car missing'

'I repeat red color Swift car missing'

'Mother and daughter are missing'

'Mother's age is 40 and daughter is 15'

- Hello...? - Vehicle spotted, sir

Sir...?

Their vehicle has been identified in 3rd street, Palavakkam

Sir

Come, let's check

Let's go

Amma...! Keerthi

- Sir, that's our car - Wait

- Please sir, let me check just once - Listen, car is empty

You don't go and erase any evidence

Did you check for a CCTV?

Checked, sir No CCTV, sir

Hey! Why eat before reaching home?

We'll reach in 10 minutes

Glutton!

Anyway when we reach home I'm the one who will eat this

Smell is tempting, amma

Moreover this can't be relished if it isn't hot

'Sir...?'

Tender coconut seller witnessed everything it seems, sir

Yov! Come here

What did you see? Tell us in detail

Sir, I shut shop at 6:30 boozed a bit and went to bed

'I heard a horn blare all of a sudden'

'When I woke up'

Amma...!

Keerthi, are you okay?

Amma?

Amma...!

Amma...amma

Keerthi, wait

Am...amma

Keerthi

Keerthi

Keerthi

Keerthi

Keerthi

Keerthi...Keerthi

Keerthi

Keerthi...Keerthi

Dai! What are you doing?

Release her

He nabbed them brilliantly, sir

In Animal Channel usually they dangle the young one as bait

And then catch the mother That's what he did too

Yov!

2 women were kidnapped in front of your eyes

You did nothing but gawk and stand there

And you are happily laughing!

If you had been in my place as if you would've ripped him to pieces

- Sarcasm! - Lingam

Sir

Hitting the witness unnecessarily

No, sir

- Get a statement and send him - Yes, sir

I can't do all that, sir

In all the check posts on ECR and OMR road

Inform them to stop and check thoroughly if a black mini van crosses that area

Watch carefully Don't miss anything

That van hasn't crossed yet, right?

Sir

- Did you check all the toll gates? - Yes, I did

That black van hasn't crossed the ECR toll

'Not crossed OMR toll either'

Van hasn't been spotted within city limits too

He has to be within 20 km radius

Inform all police stations in that area Ask them to check all cameras thoroughly

Okay, sir

Don't worry

We will find them

- Lingam - Sir

Wanting to rescue his mother and sister

...scared of the mask man Vijay shouldn't make it worse

Get Vijay's phone and hand it over to the Cyber team

Hack his normal calls, Whatsapp video calls, chats, messages

By installing a spy software

- Okay, sir - Then

Without Vijay's knowledge set a GPS tracker on his bike

- My dear boy - Sir

Nothing to worry, Cyber Crime wanted that foreign # and the call timing

- Okay, sir - Give me your phone to note it down

Here, sir

'He is very alert'

- I've installed it, sir - Okay

Sir! Don't scare me

Imagine being scared of me!

How did you get to be a cop?

- Sir - Here's your phone

Latest model? Looks good

Sit down

Sir, Vijay is getting a call from an unknown number

[mobile ringing]

[wicked laughter]

You must be aware of reality and the situation clearly now

'So if you step out without making a ruckus'

We can discuss it and solve it

Sir?

Anna?

Where's the rest room?

Step out and turn right

- Tell me, sir - The vehicle didn't cross this toll

Nor that toll

They would have told you it must be within a radius of 20 km

'Sir...? Yes, sir'

- 'Exactly, sir' - Let me send you a video

Watch it

The police will still be looking for the black van within the city

But it is 4 hours since I got out of the city in my truck

If you show that video to them

'They will hunt for me with that truck number'

Even that is fake

By the time they search and track me down

Grass will grow on the spot I bury your mother and sister

Sir, what do you want me to do?

Good

First make some excuse and get out of that place

I'll call you later

Switch off that camera

Sir

Sir, please allow me to go

I'll do as he says

Look at this, sir

Vijay, relax

He's emotionally blackmailing you

Let's wait for his next move

Here

- Lingam - Sir?

Fix the button camera on him

We will be watching you

Go

Follow his orders implicitly

I have come out, sir

- Have you fixed GPS on his bike? - Yes, sir

Follow him at a distance of 200m

- Yes, sir - No uniform

- Only mufti - Okay, sir

Lingam, give him the pistol

Okay

Boys, come on

His location is only 2 km from here

Hurry up Let's go

Could you track his location?

Sir, every 30 seconds

'Signal is jumping to various countries'

'The same with IP address when I tried to track it, sir'

We must send the recorded call to headquarters to see if it can be decoded

- Then do it immediately - Okay, sir

Hey! Stop...stop

You'll see a chicken stall to your left

- Yes, sir - Go inside

What will I do inside a chicken stall, sir?

Sir

Hello

Sir...hello?

- 'DON'T HURT ME' - MAAAA!

Sir...sir I'll go in, sir

[chickens clucking]

What do you want? Country chicken?

Go in and choose

'Just go in'

'What?'

Are you done puking?

Sir, I can't be here even for a second

What will I do here, sir?

Fate is supreme

No one can change its course

400-500 chickens in there will die today

But if you put your mind to it fate of one rooster can be changed

Sir, what are you saying? I don't understand

Fool! Go inside

Pick a chicken you like and buy it alive

Okay, sir

Anna!

I would've chopped your hand into two What's wrong with you?

I want to buy that chicken alive

Rs 600, pay and take it

Hold Hey...hey!

Can't even hold a bird properly You are a real pain in the neck

Here, hold like this

Sir, I bought one

Where should I come now, sir?

Er-

I have this urgent need to relieve myself

I'll pee and be back

Okay? You go home

Were his mother and sister kidnapped just for a damn rooster?!

This is an unique case, indeed

God, I hope the rat got trapped!

Got the rat back in the trap all thanks to my good deeds

- Open the back door - It's midnight now

We can do it in the morning

That madcap neighbor won't let me kill it

It's now or never

Don't say this and allow the rat to escape

Aiyaiyo! Rewind and repeat, eh?

This 'Saturn' is orbiting the lift!

Oh gawd!

Aiyaiyo! The rat ran away again

What do I tell my wifey dear?

'Well and truly caught!'

Police

- A boy went up now - Yes, sir, Vijay

Which floor is he in?

8th floor, 2nd house

Zoom that

Okay, sir

'This device is connected successfully'

[mobile ringing]

Sir, tell me if I should pay you a ransom amount

I'll give you all my savings

Please release my mother and sister, sir

[amused laughter]

'Are you negotiating a ransom?'

No, sir...no

Okay, fine

- How much will you pay? - Sir

I have a savings of only Rs 15 lakhs in the bank, sir

Besides that my mother and sister's jewelry will be around 40-45 sovereigns, sir

I'll give everything to you, sir

Leave us alone, sir

Are you a fool or what?

Do you know how much human trafficking and sexual exploitation will fetch me?

At least

Do you know your sister's age?

Sir

- 15, sir - Oh!

Fifteen

She is good looking too

According to today's market rate

She will fetch 50 lakhs to 1 crore

Sir...sir

Forget that

If I send your amma to Pakistan

'Every part of her body can be used in organ trafficking'

Approximately I'll get about 2 crores

Give or take it will amount to 3 crores

Okay, give me 2 crores I will release both of them

How will I collect that kind of cash, sir?

Eff you!

You understand then

So shut your gob and do only what I say

Amazon would have delivered a parcel to your address

Go and bring it to me

Okay

- Sir - Hey! Yuck!

'Are you a moron?'

Should I spoon feed you?

Open it

Take the chicken that's behind you

Chop it

I cannot kill a living being, sir

So you are saying you won't listen to me

I cannot do that alone

You are refusing to obey my order

You will comply now, just watch

- Anna - Keerthi?

ANNA!

ANNA! ANNA!!

Sir, let her go

'Keerthi...!'

- Anna - Sir

Don't hurt her, sir

ANNA!

'KEERTHI!'

'ANNA!'

'Sir, let her go'

Please, sir

- 'Anna' - She is innocent, sir

'SIR...SIR!!'

Keerthi

- Anna, save me - Don't do this, sir

DON'T, SIR PLEASE DON'T

'Anna, help me'

Even now you won't kill that damn bird?

Sir, please

ANNA!

If I let go of this rope now

'The entire set of candles and hot wax will fall on your sister'

Then your sister will become a barbeque chicken!

Aiyo...sir!

Now tell me, da

Will you kill that chicken or not?

I am begging you, sir

Anna...anna!

Okay, fine

As you like it

One

Two

NO!!

Kill that damn bird, anna

It's just a bloody rooster Kill it, damn you!

- Anna...anna! - Three

Soooper...soooper

Sorry, sir

Anna

"Did I help a killer now to save my (s)kin somehow?"

'Well done, my boy'

'Congrats!'

'Didn't I tell you?'

'Fate is supreme'

You had to kill this rooster today and that's called

Fate...! No one can change that

'I have selected you for a huge project'

Only then I knew, you are a devotee of Tamil Saint Vallalar

'I started having doubts about your capability'

'Will you be able to kill or not?'

"To one who kills ruthlessly"

Now it is confirmed

You are capable of murder

"To one who murders mercilessly"

Tomorrow you have to go right up to mid sea

And kill a huge 'whale'

Go and take rest now

He's a big time psycho, sir

My hands and legs have not stopped shaking, sir

Let's bring Vijay here before this blows out of proportion, sir

What rubbish!

We are unable to trace his calls We have no other option either

At least if we know the victim he has to kill

Through him we can nab the mask man

Ask our boys to follow him closely

- Everyone is armed, right? - Yes, sir

[mobile ringing]

- Yes, Lingam - 'Sir'

'Mask man is calling Vijay's mobile, sir'

Connect the call

This day will be unforgettable for both you and me

'Are you ready?'

My soldier

I'll send you a location

Be there within 40 minutes

Okay, sir

- Sir, he has left his house - Devaraj, be alert

- Boys, get ready - Yes, sir

[mobile ringing]

My dear boy

I'm the bow You are the arrow

Why these police dogs in between unnecessarily?

Must nab the traitors to our nation who ride without a helmet

Catch the anti-social elements fighting for imaginary causes

These cops are so busy

Why should we disturb them?

Vijay

It's my game

Don't play double game with me

You decide whether you want police help or your family to stay alive

'ANNA!'

'Anna...help me'

'ANNA'

You got it

Boys, stop him immediately

Turn right

'Park your bike at a dead end'

'Get down and run'

Hey! Stop

Sir

- Not here - Saw that side?

Okay, come

'Sir, we have missed him'

Lingam, share Vijay's 'live' location with our boys immediately

'Okay, sir'

Boys, he is closeby

It is pinpointing here, wait

Boys, what's happening?

Sir, we are in the exact spot as per his location

[mobile ringing]

Hey! Stop...stop

'A mobile will be stuck to that car's door frame'

[mobile vibrating]

Drop your mobile into that car

'And take that mobile'

Useless fellows! How could you be so careless?

Why are you making me run like this?

Where should I come, sir?

You have reached your destination

Look towards your left

Go inside

Hey...hey! Whom do you want to meet?

How can you barge in like that?

'Tell him you want to meet anna'

I have to meet anna, sir

Anna is busy mediating inside

You can't meet him now

Tell me, I'll tell him

Tell him Dr Karunakaran sent you on an important mission

Dr Karunakaran sent me on an important mission

He is referring our doctor's name What do we do now?

Sir, we are okay with the 10% partnership

Once the agreement is drafted we can sign legally, sir

- First draft out the agreement - Sure, sir

You go, sir, I'll talk to Kali and follow you at once

Kali, don't forget anna's commission

You don't have to worry about all that

- Rest assured and be happy - I know

Still it is my duty to remind you

Shall I take leave?

Anna, some important matter it seems

Our doctor sent him here

Sit down

Go, sit

Why did he send you?

Tell him 'you have to kill someone'

You have to kill someone, anna

What is it, boy? Love failure, huh?

You want us to kill your girlfriend?

Or is your wife having a clandestine affair?

Should we kill her? Or kill her lover too?

We don't deal with such mundane murders!

'Leave now'

Tell him he has to kill a big time rowdy

You have to kill a big time rowdy

'Is that so? Then the rate will be high'

Is that okay with you?

'Okay even if it costs 2-3 crores!'

Tell him that rowdy should be dissected to bits and pieces

Doesn't matter if it costs 20 or 30 million

He should be dissected to bits and pieces

Do you have his name or any photo with you?

[maniacal laughter]

Don't be scared They are all my boys

You can speak up boldly

Tell him 'Kali'

Sir...Kali, sir!

I didn't get you

What is the name you said?

Tell him, North Madras Kali

North Madras Kali, sir

[overlap of laughter]

- Kasi - Anna?

Click his photo, send it to our doctor and ask if he knows this fool

Sir

Doctor sir, a chap is here saying you sent him over

He has the gall to tell Kali anna to his face he wants Kali anna killed!

Kali?

'Doctor sir'

'Don't get flustered'

'I have sent a photo to your WhatsApp'

'Take a look'

'Just tell us if you know him or you don't, that will do'

Anna, he says he doesn't know him from Adam

Bloody fraud!

- Dai! - 'Don't get scared'

The entire lot over there will be silenced, just watch

'Kali will receive a call now Ask him to answer it'

Sir, he is asking you to pick the call

[mobile ringing]

Your brother went to Pondicherry along with his friends, 2 days ago

'Ask him to lessen his shocked look and connect the mobile to the TV'

'Tell him to place the mobile so everyone can see the screen'

Connect it

'In another 5 minutes'

'The glass tank your brother is in, will get filled to the top'

'Amma!'

Amma!

'You know your sister's stamina'

'Unable to bear the pain'

If she releases the rope

'That sharp rod will pierce your mother's eyes'

'Drill her brain and emerge on the other side'

Amma

It's time to start the game

Rule # 1

This is an one-on-one match

Rule # 2

'The survivor's family will be protected'

Kali who has murdered 36 victims on one side

A virgin murderer who has killed just one rooster on the other side

Hey! Kali, I presume you are a strong male?

Won't the boy be terrified of so many thugs surrounding him?

Ask all your lackeys to step outside

Time is also running out

HEY!

All of you get out

Anna

Your brother

GO

He's such an innocent imbecile I have to teach him everything

For heaven's sake go and shut all the doors

Anna

Sethu

We've abandoned our boss

Stupid son of a gun! Why get intimidated by him?

He will finish this fool in 1 second

Anna, help

Amma

Anna, I can't hold on any longer

'Amma...amma'

I told you so?

Anna

Amma

Hey!

Let's make it more intense

'Amma!'

Amma...amma!

I don't know you

But wherever you are holed up I will hunt you down

On that day

ON THAT DAY

You will regret you were born on this earth

[clucking sound]

"Risking your life, time to aim"

"Try your luck, let's play this game"

"Risking your life, time to aim"

Sethu, can't hear anything?

Aiyo! How could I have done this!

Anna?

Congratulations, Vijay

You saved your mother

Why are you torturing us like this, sir?

What sin did we commit, sir?

Good or bad

It is your own doing

'Karma is a boomerang'

No one can escape its effect

Peep and tell us

Anna...anna?

- What happened, bro? - He has killed our boss

Break open the door

- Kasi, we have to kill him - Break down the door

Break it open, push

'Hey! Vijay Where are you scampering?'

If you manage to stay alive

We shall meet

'Hey! Use more force'

[triumphant laughter]

See you soon

[overlap of angry voices]

Hey! Open the door

- Aiyo! - Anna!

Anna...anna

Boss...get up

Anna

Anna

Hey! Throw him out

He shouldn't have an ordinary death

His body should be powdered to a fine dust!

Grab your weapons

Asst Commissioner of Police

He has killed our boss

Just shut up and leave

This job doesn't concern you

That IS my job, da

Chop his head off!

'Notorious rowdy Kali from North Madras'

'...was killed this morning by a youngster named Vijay'

'The motive for murder hasn't been released by the Police department yet'

'Since Kasimedu is buzzing with fear and unrest'

'Heavy security has been provided by the police in that area'

[overlap of TV announcements]

'The motive for murder has not been established yet'

'Who is that mask man who instigated the murder?'

'Regarding the murder case of the notorious rowdy Kali'

'To detain the accused Vijay under police custody for 1 week'

'And for the Police force to interrogate him'

'This court grants permission'

How many such cases we've seen

Wonder what is happening in this country

I feel sad about the poor chap's future

Does he look like he's capable of killing Kali?

The police killed Kali and now coolly blaming the poor boy

How many tales have been spun like this!

Mark my words, in another 2 days you will hear that boy committed suicide

This is heading in the wrong direction

'Let the public learn the truth'

'The police force has remanded Vijay in custody for murdering rowdy Kali'

Your Chief Minister is claiming Tamil Nadu is a 'peaceful park'

'Isn't this single video enough for people to understand...'

'...Tamil Nadu is turning into a terrorist camp?'

'If that mother and daughter are not rescued alive'

'Let me warn you, Tamil Nadu will encounter a major rebellion'

'If children watch such violent videos'

'Whether with enjoyment or fear they will be psychologically affected'

'So Govt should remove this online video immediately'

'My request to the general public'

'Please do not share or support it'

Poor fellow! Innocent guy

It was completely an emotional blackmail

Anyone in that situation would have murdered to save their family

He did it to save his mother

'Instead of blaming that boy'

'The mask man who tortured the boy and coerced him to kill'

'First try to apprehend him'

Redirect regular complaints to this station to the next block

No one here should be disturbed

Then Vijay, his mother and sister

Get me 3 years of their call history

Okay, sir

Then get complete details of Vijay's family

Sir?

The hired help in Vijay's house

Neighbors, Vijay's office

Vijay's sister's school

- Enquire thoroughly - Okay, sir

Who is he?

Is he a terrorist?

Or a serial killer?

Or Dark Web psycho?

He has turned an innocent boy into a beast!

Mr Yazhvendan

Can you please explain this to me clearly?

Yes, ma'am

His mobile phone signal jumps from one country to another every 30 seconds

So our team is unable to track him

See, if you are unable to track him

Hire a hacker from the Dark Web market

Or negotiate for a ransom and ask about his demand

All arrangements have been made, madam

I don't know what you intend doing

But in the next 12 hours

I want that boy's mother and sister to be rescued alive and brought to me

You may all go now

Sir

- Anything fishy? - No, sir

Everything is crystal clear

Father isn't alive Just the 3 of them

They have spoken to less than 50 phone numbers

We tapped all the numbers...

Only friends and family, sir

Sir

Hacker Nutty

- Hi sir - He has appeared 'live' in 2 videos

He has recorded 1 video and posted it online

Can you track him?

Yeah, sir, I'll try

Past 2 days that mask man has been giving all of us a hard time

Such a pain, she keeps calling me

I swear I'll strangl-

Not my phone? Where am I hearing it ring?

[mobile ring continues]

This is the phone given by mask man to Vijay

- That's why - Sir...?

Video call from a foreign # in the phone given by the masked man

Govt is ready to negotiate with you

If you can tell us your demand

Who are you guys?

'What will happen next'

'None of you will have any clue without me telling you'

So, I am your master

Be smart and shut your gob

'Give the phone to my pet parrot who follows all my instructions'

You scoundrel!

Vile vagabond!

I won't give, da

Do what the eff you want to!

[mobile ringing]

'In the next 12 hours'

'I want that boy's mother and sister to be rescued alive and brought to me'

- Hmm - Yes, sir

Son of a gun! I'll chop them to pieces and walk away

You have only 2 choices One, give the phone to Vijay

Second choice, inform him his mother and sister are dead!

Okay, sir

Vijay

That mask man is on the line

Talk to him

'Sir, I committed a murder obeying you implicitly'

Please release my amma and sister

- Please, sir - I agree you are right

In all fairness I should have let them go

But hastily I kidnapped 2 people

You killed only one and asking for 2 people alive in return

Does it seem fair to you?

Kill one more person for me

Then it will even out

I'll let you go

I can't kill anyone irrespective of your persuasive tactics

'I believe in God'

ACP is here

Let everything unfold according to my fate

"Risking your life, time to aim"

"Try your luck, let's play this game"

'Hello, everybody'

'You usually stay awake until midnight'

'And watch your favorite IPL, Bigg Boss or serials'

'If you stay awake till 11 tonight'

'You can witness a 'Live' murder'

'I guarantee you 100% entertainment'

'So please, don't miss it'

Nonsense!

Release him from lock-up

Move aside

Are you playing the fool with me?

I'll finish you off I'll bash you black and blue

Sir...sir

Who are you both?

Churning my brain to a pulp?

'Karma is a boomerang'

Didn't he address it to you?

Yes

That means you both are somehow connected in some way, right?

He claims he will kill someone 'Live' at 11:00 p.m

At least tell me the truth now

Otherwise you cannot see your mother and sister alive

Cough up the truth, I say

No, sir

I have no idea who he is and no connection whatsoever

Nothing is more important than saving my mother and sister

Please stop interrogating me and focus on finding them, sir

Sir, please

Sir is furious about this case

What do you want us to do?

All our leads are dead ends

Get up

You don't worry

Nothing will happen to your mother and sister

We'll take care

Eat this

He won't get past tonight

Eat, Vijay

Please leave me alone, sir

[vibrating sound]

MAAAAAA!

"My shocked heartbeats somersault"

"My eyes weep at this brutal assault"

"I will rush in search of you with a son's love so true"

"You fed me daily willingly"

"Brushed my hair lovingly"

"My mother incomparable with your love unconditional"

Sir

Sir, my mother

Shhh!!!!

'Like how sword, sickle, guns are used as weapons'

- 'Similarly you are a weapon for me!' - Sir...!

A weapon should not decide whether a war should be waged or not

Only the soldier who holds the weapon should decide

Now tell me

Will you kill or not?

Sir

I'm in lock up

I'm surrounded by police and ACP, sir

How can I kill, sir?

Hey!

Forget them

Will you kill or not?

I wi...will, sir

I'll do it

'Then eat all that food without wasting'

'I will take care of the rest'

Okay, sir

Stop him from eating

Call an ambulance immediately

Dai Vijay...hey!

Don't eat

Hey...!

Listen to me

Hey!

- Vijay - Spit it out

He must have mixed something, spit it out

Sir...sir

Mask man has announced a murder at 11:30 p.m

Can you prevent it?

- Hello, sir - How is he?

He is slightly poisoned, sir

He has been inside for 1 hour Is there any update?

Dean is personally treating the patient He will inform you as soon as possible

- Until then - Move, I say

Sir...?

Sir

- ACP - Sir...?

Aiyayo!

Smells like chloroform

What to do now, sir?

ACP, you validated that boy's innocence

Look what he has done, he has planned like a criminal and kidnapped the Dean

Sir, that boy didn't kidnap the Dean

Dean has kidnapped that boy

Does your Dean normally attend all emergency cases personally?

No, sir, this is the first time

Sir

Then is the Dean our 'mask man'?

All calls for Vijay

Though the mask man knew we are tracing them

Why has he sent the video of the van being loaded into the container...

..to Vijay?

His plan is to make us believe he has gone out of city limits

As I already said

He's only within 20 km radius

- Lingam - Sir

Bring me all the mask man videos

Yes, sir

O-zen

Fro-

Frozen

Yes

- Devaraj - Sir

Ice factories, cold storage, ware houses to the south of the city

Get me the list, especially any recently closed factories

Target them

- Devaraj - Sir?

I need factory list along with the construction plan

- Okay, sir - Quick

Sir, who are you?

Where are you taking me, sir?

Before kidnapping your sister and mother

He has abducted my son, rascal

I'll hand you over to him

And I will rescue my son

You are taking me to that mask man

Thank you very much, sir

I'll beg and fall at his feet

And save my mother and sister

I got the details you asked for, sir

3 factories match our requirement

There are 2 factories on 5 acres

And 1 factory on 3 acres

That 3 acre factory was recently shut down like you said

'Your destination is on the right'

'Welcome, dear Vijay'

'And respected Dean'

I've brought him to the place you wanted

Where is my son?

Why are you playing such cheap mind games?

Where have you kept my mother and sister captive?

What sin did we commit?

He doesn't know me and I don't know him

And we both don't know you

- Who are you, da? - Hey! Stop...stop

People are watching this 'Live'

Before you both get to know who I am

It is imperative they know who you both are

Eagerly waiting to watch the murder 'Live'

'My dear viewers'

'You wanted to know what sin you have committed?'

Let our people be aware of your sins too

'Pandemic time'

'Corona period'

'A time when in this free motherland people were unable to breathe freely'

'Death and disease in every nook and cranny'

'Fear of death everywhere'

'When each and every individual was fighting to save his or her own life'

'Working 24x7 to save the lives of others'

'So many frontline warriors working like God'

'My Anitha was also a warrior'

This is Dr Anitha from our Govt hospital

People are dying here in heaps every minute

'Even now right in front of my eyes'

'I am speaking to you after helplessly watching a person suffering and dying'

'Doctor akka'

Lie down, sir

Nothing, sir

Arrange artificial respiration

Doctor, I have 2 daughters of marriageable age

Only if I drive auto 200-300 km per day

I can support my family, doctor

Please save me somehow, doctor

They don't have a mother, doctor

'If I die they will both become orphans'

Please save me, doctor

Relax, sir

Don't worry Just relax

Don't get flustered It isn't good for your baby

Why get scared?

We are all here, right?

You'll be fine

Not true, akka

You are lying just to reassure me

I know, akka

Even I will

Just like him

Without oxygen

I'll die, no?

I won't be able to see my baby, right?

'Praying we will save them somehow even in the last minute'

'They look at us like we are God Almighty'

'But we are doctors'

'All we can do is helplessly watch them suffer and die'

'Every hour 40-50 patients are dying because of oxygen depletion here'

'Behind these lives'

'...are families relying on their daily wage and monthly salary'

'They have children'

'Central Govt authorities watching this video'

'Or State Govt'

'Non Govt organizations'

'Volunteers'

'Plus those who have privately locked up oxygen cylinders for their use'

'Please extend your help'

'Why do you keep talking about food, sir?'

Since yesterday, a lady doctor's video has gone viral about insufficient oxygen supply

What is your response to it?

Yov! We saw that video too

Who could predict the whole world will fall sick at the same time?

We are working on a war footing

We have dispatched 200 extra oxygen cylinders to that hospital

Know your facts and don't blabber!

Let's go Which is this hospital?

First send 200 cylinders to that damn hospital

Okay, sir

Inform that female doctor cylinders have been delivered

- Ask her to thank me in a video - Okay, sir

'I am Dr Anitha speaking from Govt Hospital'

'Until the last minute hoping we'll save them

'They look at us like we are God Almighty'

'But we are doctors'

'All we can do is helplessly watch them suffer and die'

- Sir, did you call? - Who is this girl?

Her video has gone viral

To heap 'like' and 'share' our livelihood is ruined

Minister is mad as a hornet and ranting at me

Why assign such doctors in General ward?

Sensitive woman!

Please shift her to ICU with 24 hours oxygen supply

Okay, sir Sorry, sir

- Will shift her today - Go right away

Sister...?

Where is doctor 'akka'?

She has been shifted to ICU ward

If you need anything, please call

[mobile ringing]

- Hello? - 'Doctor'

'That pregnant girl is struggling to breathe'

Why was the oxygen mask removed?

Half an hour ago, we had a sudden shortage of oxygen

'No one responded properly'

Please lift her I'll get a wheel chair

Hurry up!

Sir, even though your oxygen level is a bit low, you are still stable

She's fighting for her life

If you can give her your oxygen for a short while

...she can be saved

- I'll find you another oxygen- - No

'Sir, your oxygen level is only slightly less than normal'

You can definitely manage for 1/2 hour to 1 hour without oxygen

She's struggling for her life

If you can spare your oxygen for just 10 minutes

Sir...?

'Can somebody help please?'

Someone please try to save her

She is pregnant

I don't think any of them want to help

Take care of her for 10 minutes

I'll check if there's oxygen cylinder downstairs

- What do you want? - What happened to the cylinders here?

How will I know?

Wait, I'll call the police

Why are you dragging me into a mess?

Go ask the Dean about the cylinders

'So what's the payment like?'

How much do I transfer?

Don't you have any sense? First wear your mask

What do you want?

You have built 3 hospitals just to loot money from the needy

I want those 200 oxygen cylinders shifted there back NOW

What are you blabbering? Get out

In this pandemic situation no one knows if you or I will survive

Even in this dire situation

How can you kill humans and make money out of it?

I'm doing all this to save lives too

Did I use oxygen cylinders to fill gas in balloons and play?

Oh!

So according to you

Only the rich should survive

And the have-nots

They should die, right?

Yes

The economic crisis our country is facing today

Only the rich I save can save the country

But 'communists' like you won't be of any help

I'm not discussing communism but humanitarianism!

To prevent people like you from entering

We got special exam into the system

But you still manage to barge in and I don't know how

Anyhow you've stepped into my space

How much do you want?

I don't have time to waste talking to a beast like you

I'll ensure this video goes viral right now

I will ruin your doctor status

I'll shut down and seal your 3 hospitals

Blackmail?

Ah?

I'll prove those vans don't belong to me

I'll swear this footage is fake

I'll ensure this case is heard in court after 15 long years

You'll bring the police, right?

Before they arrive all the cylinders in my hospital will go out

By then there's a chance of 100 or 200 patients dying here

Is saving lives important?

Or fighting with me and losing is your priority?

Isn't your name Anitha?

Think practically

You can save lives here

I'll take care of you

Hey...!

In another half hour I want those 200 cylinders to be returned

I have nothing to lose

But for you?

Huh?

That patient died

They took the body away

I killed my patient

I gave false hope promising to return in 10 minutes

I deceived that patient

No, you are not the actual killer

That Dean is the real killer

We shouldn't let them go scot-free

Post about them in social media Twitter, Facebook, Insta

Post and then?

What can we do?

We are powerless against them

To the best of our ability

We can at least save our remaining patients

Anitha madam

Past 3 days you have been here day and night

Please listen to me

Go home, take rest and come

If there's any problem here, I'll call you

Okay

She intends shutting down this hospital and ruin our 10 year old business

'Then we have to end up begging'

You know the cylinders we shifted from GH

She threatened me

And made me return

'That was my only way of silencing her'

Advocating noble ideals like humanitarianism

She won't keep quiet in future

If our malpractice leaks out

Then we'll be rotting in jail for the rest of our lives

Tell me, what should I do?

You know to ask for 10% partnership, no?

- Don't you know how to handle this? - I'll take care

Anitha

Aunty...aunty

- Aunty, save me - Anitha?!

They are here to kill me

Uncle?

'Get back in Why buy trouble?'

Aunty

- Hey! - Please, sir, help

Hey! Get up

After all a house surgeon! Threatening to seal my hospital?

Can't you shut your gob like a prim and proper girl?

It wouldn't have gone this far

You've sent so many thugs to bash me up

Who is the 'sissy' here?

She won't pipe down

Finish her off!

Hit her, man

Hey doctor!

Are you a psycho?

Watching a girl being bashed up!

I can't bear this sight

Get out of my way

Only a heart that yearns and beats for another life

That's the purest soul in this universe

'Such a pure soul'

'For your greed and selfish interests'

'Making her suffer in the most horrific way, you killed her'

'I wilted, whenever I saw crops wither'

You quoted a noble soul on every stage and every street

Anitha led such a noble exemplary life

And you let her die

There were 10-15 of them, sir

What could I have done, sir?

Then how did you kill Kali alone?

So blood is thicker than water, right?

Anitha did not die that day because Kali killed her

Help!

Water

Water

'A soul used to struggling'

'Maybe that's why'

'She struggled for help for 15 whole minutes'

'She has breathed her last'

If one of them had taken the effort to come down

'Or at least if one person had called for the ambulance'

That life could have been saved

There were so many residents in those flats

Why did you single me out and torture me, sir?

This is a Tamilian's biggest disease

It isn't important if we are suffering

But another person should not be happy

But I played a fair game

I wrote the names of all the residents on slips, in a bowl and picked

A random draw

You are the luckiest person

I am a common middle class boy, sir

How can I oppose all of them and do anything, sir?

This fear and being a Robinson Crusoe

Good people go to dogs The villains rule the roost!

When you're in trouble, you'll yearn for God in the guise of a Good Samaritan

If a stranger is in trouble you will watch the fun!

In the middle of a road in Tirupur

When just 3 people killed a pair of lovers

300 of you stood around and watched with curiosity!

If 30 of them had raised their voice in protest

Not even that

If 10 of them had stoned the culprits

Those two lives could have been saved

From the time Christ was crucified

You are used to standing around and gawking without a single protest

'As if you will reform listening to me!'

But one thing

Karma is a boomerang

'One day this will happen to you too'

Then you will understand my pain and anguish

Okay, let's start the game

Amma

When switched on

In 3 minutes

That machine will absorb the oxygen in the glass cage completely

Your mother and sister will last only 2 minutes after that

Amma!

Vijay

'Amma'

HEY!

Vicky

VICKY!

What did you do to my son?

What did you do, I say?

You want to know?

When the blade drills into his body

It will pain like hell

'If he yells and brings the roof down'

So I paralyzed him

That blade

In exactly 5 minutes it will touch your son

Even with 1 extra second

Your son

It will splinter your son to bits and pieces

I made the blunder

What did my son do?

Let him go

PLEASE!

Not just the crime of killing so many innocent patients

Even your sins will affect him

Release him

Do whatever you want with me

Our people are waiting online for a long time for this entertainment

Let the show begin

HEY!

Hey! Let him go, please

NO...PLEASE!

What, I say?

Having killed Kali the notorious rowdy

He is just a doctor Is that your thought process?

He knows only to hold an axe and kill haphazardly

I know where to target and how it will affect

Come on

Face-off!

Hey! You won't die?

No...no

'Shit!'

'According to statement of witnesses and the clear evidence obtained'

'Vijay has only been used as a tool'

According to IPC Section 97 and 100

Even though they were murders by self-defense

'Because he was instigated and coerced to kill'

'And being a young victim with a good educational background'

'No one should treat this as a precedent'

'Therefore Vijay is sentenced to a minimum jail term'

'One year rigorous imprisonment as per the verdict of this court'

To nab at the earliest Accused #1, the mask-man'

'The court further orders the police force'

Sir

I wanted to meet you, sir

If not for you, my mother and sister won't be alive today

I am indebted to you, sir

Sit down

Why are you switching off the mike, sir?

Your gratitude

...should go to that masked man

Sir, he is the root cause of all this trauma and tragedy

Why should I thank him?

Even if I hadn't broken the glass cubicle the 'mask man' had engineered

'Nothing would have happened to your mother and sister'

'Do you know why?'

'To ensure they could live, he had set the minimum oxygen level correctly'

Not just that

'To ensure that dean's son is safe'

'He had inserted a rod to prevent the circular saw from touching him'

This is why I said you should thank him

One more thing

The rod twirling in front of your mother's eyes

'He has been so careful it should not pierce your mother's eye'

'We sent your mother's finger for analysis'

You know the report we got?

Sir?

Before he chopped her finger

He performed a pain-free procedure using local anaesthesia to numb her finger

Whether the 'mask man' chopped her finger

Or your mother chopped it herself

Sir, why should my mother chop her finger to aid that mask man?

Why torture me so much besides the agony he was going through?

That mask-man wanted to take revenge on Anitha's killer

Your mother wanted to

Change the punishment of her son who killed 2 people, from Death sentence

To 1 year of rigorous imprisonment

Hmmm...so

Did that mask-man and your mother have any-

- SIR! - No...no...no

Cool...cool

I am not insinuating

It was just a question

Sir

Have you traced that mask-man?

I went to that mask-man's go-down at 11:30 a.m

I went when he was 'Live' on the video call

Exactly the same time

The sunlight in his 'Live' video

And the sunlight when I went there

There was a world of difference

So mask-man was not 'Live' on that video call

It was a fabricated recorded footage

Can the sun's ray lie?

Kali's post mortem report

The unexpected twist

What is it, sir?

Cause of death for Kali is not the stab in his neck by you

His rib was broken It pierced his lung

He died of asphyxiation

Only a well-trained fighter

...can punch powerfully like this

Look how you are acting as if you are totally innocent!

Sir

You perform so well

Good actor!

Sir, what are you implying?

You are that masked-man!

"I am not some stranger mighty"

"Neither am I God Almighty"

"I am your death knell"

"I am your hell"

"Trust my words true I'll never spare you"

'A stranger just called me'

'Claiming he has kidnapped my mother and sister, sir'

'If I send your amma to Pakistan'

[checking audio output]

'If I send your amma to Pak-'

Sir...!

"Only Yama can put down he who refuses to be overthrown"

"This Yama He's called Siva"

"Here comes Yama Masked man to end the trauma"

'Be careful, son'

"He is the Lord's camera"

'Fix the button camera'

I've reached Kali's house, ma

'Play the pre-recorded video properly'

Don't mess it up

'What will I do inside a chicken shop, sir?'

'You will comply now, just watch'

'I don't know you'

'Are you a moron?'

Ma! You shouldn't put this dialog for that video

- Insert this instead - Aiyaiyo!

Why are you torturing us like this, sir?

'Even if something untoward happens to me don't stop this live streaming, ma'

'The truth should be revealed to everyone'

"That path will turn out to be tanked to the nth degree"

'Hello everybody'

"Evil sown as seed"

"Will never sleep or recede"

'Vicky'

Vicky

"Its odor will infect life indeed"

- Chop it - I can't do it, ma

"Don't become a victim"

- Amma, look, police - Open that door, quick

"Feeding on many a sin He is a falcon"

Fix your belt

Why did you enact this drama as a family ganging up?

I know very well

Shall I tell you or will you volunteer?

Yes, sir

We conspired as a family

As a tribute to my father

Please bear it, dear

'If you can spare your oxygen for just 10 minutes'

'Can somebody help, please?'

'Anitha'

Come here

Appa

Take my oxygen

Appa, your pulse is low Your oxygen level also

You can't give now

Don't do this

Please listen to me, don't

Appa, you shouldn't give your mask You can't breathe without it

Two lives, my dear

Oh God!

Save her

Lift her

"Father, you are like God too"

Give me 10 minutes

I'll go down and check the oxygen cylinder

"Appa, you're all I see that's true"

"Clambering on your chest and shoulder"

"How can I forget ever seeing the world, father?"

"You crooned to me as a baby"

"How can I forget that sweet lullaby?"

"Bonds limitless Ties countless"

"Can they ever be compared to a father's love many times squared?"

"In the sky of love extending true Not a crescent, but a full moon are you"

"Even when you grow old and grey"

"A child still nestles in you everyday"

My dad who couldn't even bear to see anyone suffer

Imagine how he would've cherished the 2 lives he fathered, sir!

Sir?

'That patient died'

'They took the body away'

"You're my Rock of Gibraltar wiping my woes, my friend forever"

'Though Anitha was our neighbor'

'She considered herself as part of our family, sir'

"Whenever I fall or fail badly you instil bravery in me"

"My father who breathes for me"

"Who else here is the Almighty?"

"In space, earth, fire and water"

"You'll mingle and live forever"

"Preserving your name truly Every breath we take duly"

"You will live gaily within us daily"

'None of us were at home the day Anitha died, sir'

'That was the day my appa died too'

'We had gone to see him one last time, sir'

'But, as his son, I couldn't even light the funeral pyre for him'

'You won't understand our dejection and anguish if I describe it to you, sir'

"Father, you are like God too"

"Appa, you're all I see that's true"

"Clambering on your chest and shoulder"

"How can I forget ever seeing the world, father?"

'We wept nonstop daily'

'We were crying our heart out'

'We couldn't even eat a morsel of food thinking of the way my dad and Anitha died'

'We couldn't sleep even a wink'

'We couldn't focus on any work, sir'

Bless you, son

This is for you

Appa, are you gifting me a book for this birthday too?

'Not realising the kind of world we are living in'

'We went through intense agony daily, sir'

'Only a heart that yearns and beats for another life'

'That's the purest soul in this universe'

'My father's favorite quote'

Killing two such pure lives

'Without an iota of guilt whatsoever'

They were leading a happy, carefree life

The more I saw that

The anger within us amplified as rage

'We couldn't live peacefully in that house after that, sir'

'We decided to kill them'

So we shifted our house

After that, ensuring we don't get caught we planned every detail for 2 years

We conspired as a family and killed him, sir

Taking action in our hands may seem wrong in the eyes of Law

But as far as we are concerned

Our plan appeared fair and just

I am able to sleep peacefully, sir

The 2 culprits you killed

Deserved to die

I have no intentions of snitching on you

There is no perfect crime or perfect criminal

But if you intend to conspire like this again

This file contains all the evidence regarding your case

Whether I should use it

Or burn it to embers

The decision is yours

You can go now

Go, da

'But if you intend to conspire like this again'

'This file contains all the evidence regarding your case'

'Whether I should use it'

'Or burn it to embers'

'The decision is yours'

"I am not some stranger mighty"

"Neither am I God Almighty"

'With gratitude always K.S.Ravikumar'
