Every Indian must live a respectable life and die a respectable death.

I want Mercy Killing.

Prasad...

this one…

Prasad?

Sorry, sir.

Nothing.

A girl named Swetcha took her protest to the streets for the cause of Mercy Killing.

Take a look, sir.

Swetcha prefers death over a life that lacks human compassion.

I have lost total faith in our systems and the people who govern us.

The institutions of supreme court,

high court and parliament remain only as architectural marvels.

They serve absolutely no purpose at all.

Please give me justice.

If not, take pity on me and subject me to mercy killing.

I want mercy killing.

The Indian constitution is hailed as one of the greatest in the entire world.

But our Indian constitution is nothing more than mere words.

The saying that “Truth will ultimately prevail” is a lie.

Instead, Truth is never victorious;

and this is truth.

Swetcha’s decision to be put to death through mercy killing has created a sensation across the entire country.

A fourteen year girl who is destined to live for hundred years...

has petitioned the president of the country to help her die through mercy killing.

Swtecha starts the new chapter of AP surroundings.

Swetcha’s movement has created a sort of frenzy and evoked intense debate amongst the public.

Now, who is Swetcha?

What does Mercy Killing mean?

Swetcha must get justice.

Justice for Swetcha. [slogans]

We want justice.

“I want Mercy Killing”.

An orphan girl named Swetcha has demanded

the government and its institutions with the statement “I want Mercy Killing”.

What does Mercy Killing me?

The medical doctrine believes that a person who suffers from an incurable disease and lives life in a vegetative state,

completely dependent on others and ends up being a burden to his family and society in general,

is permitted to end his life in a respectable manner, with the permission of the courts.

This is called Mercy Killing.

This is also called ‘Karunyamaranam’. [in Telugu]

Why is Swetcha demanding mercy killing?

Good morning, madam.

Morning.

Swetcha is questioning the use of mercy killing for the purpose of justice.

Who is Swetcha?

Why is she talking about this mercy killing?

Swetcha’s demand is currently the burning issue in the media, madam.

This came into the public because of a tweet put out by the great businessman Ramakrishna Raj.

Take a look at this, madam.

Do we need to sacrifice our lives to save the life of a girl child in our country?

It’s our duty to save Swetcha.

Hail mother India.

The question in the hearts of the people of our country is whether...

Swetcha should be granted the request for mercy killing or not.

Swetcha is a healthy girl.

She says that she cannot live amidst our society and begs to die through mercy killing.

Where is this happening?

Kakinada, madam.

Okay, connect me to the collector of Kakinada.

I want the issue to be resolved immediately.

Good morning, sir.

Good morning.

This is the Governor’s order.

A 14-year-old girl declared that...

she has lost faith in the public institutions as well as the representatives of the people.

She petitioned for mercy killing and is conducting her protest at the Kakinada centre.

Take Swetcha into custody and present her in front of the magistrate.

Sure, sir.

We want justice!

Justice for Swetcha!

"Beyond the veil of darkness lies justice."

We want justice!

We are now looking at Swetcha protesting at the statue of Ambedkar.

Ambedkar as a witness we see the freedom that she took for justice.

though her age was young, but her decision was big.

Even though she is young, we can say that the decision that she has made is a huge one.

We will not tolerate any negligence in Swetcha’s case.

We want justice immediately.

Justice for Swetcha! We want justice! [Slogans]

Constables...

Sir!

arrest her and get her into the vehicle. -Okay sir.

In this country, one is arrested even when one demands justice.

One is arrested even when injustice is questioned.

But remember one thing...

Until I get what I want, I am not moving from here.

Listen Swetcha.

The cause that you are fighting for

and the people you hope will react to your situation are the ones who have ordered this.

That is why, if you cooperate with us,

we will present you in front of the magistrate.

Justice for Swetcha! We want justice! [Slogans]

We will not tolerate any disregard or negligence with regards to Swetcha’s issue.

You will be held responsible for this.

Alright!

I will ensure that she gets the justice she seeks.

Let’s go.

[Complex of Courts]

[Orphanage - Hyderabad]

Good morning, sir.

When did you realise that the money was gone?

When we opened the offering box to count the money,

we saw that it was empty, sir.

If you confess on your own, things will go smoothly.

Or else, we have to take you to the police station and get the truth out with our methods.

We don’t know anything.

You mean to say that none of you here are the culprits?

Of course, being orphans, you would definitely have thieving traits.

Girl, come here!

You are the one who stole the money, didn’t you?

Inspector, sir.

Mind your tongue!

Not all orphans are thieves.

And conversely, neither are you paragons of goodness.

The good or bad in people is not a result of their circumstances.

It’s dependent on their actions and behaviour.

Mind it!

Well said, Swetcha!

You have bravely spoken the truth.

Why do you sow seeds of bitterness in the hearts of young ones?

For the past five years, you’ve never had such an incident take place.

How did this come about out of the blue?

Who is new to the orphanage?

Those two security guards are new here.

Sir, sorry sir.

Constables, take those two security guards to the police station.

Okay, sir.

Let’s go.

Manager?

Yes, sir.

These are the funds for this month. -Thank you, sir.

Swetcha... -Sir!

how are you studying, dear? -I am studying well, sir.

Very good.

One minute.

Keep this.

Thank you, sir.

This chapter of Rose belongs to the era of history…

Sir…

What is it?

I am here to take down the names of those...

who want to volunteer for cultural programs during the Independence Day celebrations.

We are in the middle of a lecture.

Can’t you see that?

The mathematics teacher, Appaiah, sent us here, sir.

Alright. Hurry up and take the names.

My name is Samhitha.

I will perform classical dance.

Okay.

I will participate in singing, sir.

I will enact the role of Alluri Seetha Rama Raju, sir.

What?

You think you can play the role of Alluri Seetha Rama Raju?

Why don’t you go ahead and give us a glimpse?

You Telugu dog!

Is he really calling me that?

Why do I have to pay you a tax?

What?

Well, I meant white dog.

Sit down, you idiot!

Next!

My name is Swetcha.

I will give a speech on Human relations.

Swetcha, stand up.

What?

You really are going to give a speech on Human relations?

What a joke!

You are an orphan!

You don’t even know who your parents are and where you were born.

And you presume to know what human relationships are?

How would an orphan know these things?

Do you think human relationships are material things that are found in the market?

You are an orphan.

Just as a corpse doesn’t have a sense of touch,

an orphan such as you would in no way know what human relationships are.

So, don’t ever tell me that you are going to give speech about such things.

Do you understand?

Swetcha, let’s go.

Happy birthday to you.

Children, wish the boy on his birthday.

Swetcha?

Stop right there.

Wish him.

Why should I, sir?

Do you want me to wish him because they trouble us just to see their children happy?

"You have thrown your kohl rimmed gazes at me."

What are you talking about?

It’s true, sir.

Everyone comes here celebrate their children’s birthdays.

This brings joy to the children and this in turn makes the parents happy.

But our hearts are in great sadness.

Do you know why?

It’s because we feel sad about not having parents

and the happiness that they could have given us.

If their birthdays increase the joy in their lives,

it just leaves us with great sadness.

It’s not just one or two occasions.

All through the year, a lot of people here come to celebrate

and keep reminding us of what we lack.

And on top of it, they give us 2 rupees worth lollies and 5 rupees worth of ice cream,

and give the impression that they have done so much to improve our lives.

They take selfies with us and post them on social media and in turn reduce us to beggars.

Celebrations are meant to help us get over our loneliness

and pain but they should never leave our hearts heavy with sadness, sir.

'Every Indian must live a respectable life and die a respectable death.'

Swetcha, what are you thinking about?

On this earth, there are a lot of animals who must

have experienced the love showered by their parents, right?

Why did God give us this fate?

Don’t worry.

The very same God who gave us tears will give us our happiness too.

Alright, tomorrow let’s go to my aunt’s house.

You are coming with us, aren’t you?

Yes, I’ll come.

But you do know that I will be going to the hospital in Kakinada, right?

Alright, fine. Go to bed.

It’s quite late.

[Government Hospital - Kakinada]

Sir?

Sir, my name is Swetcha.

I came from an orphanage in Hyderabad.

I was born in this hospital, sir.

If so, what do you want me to do about it?

Could you take a look at this and tell me who my parents are, sir?

There’s nothing on here except the date and the year.

Thank God you didn’t ask me to tell you how your parents look like by the lines on your palm.

Well, all the old records have been stowed away in a Godown.

Please, sir. I beg you.

Please give me an answer.

Beggar! Get lost!!

Go away!

Don’t be sad, child.

I’ve been working here for a long time here.

There is a nurse here called ‘Devamma’.

You might get some answer if you ask her.

Let’s go and ask her.

Come.

You can go now. -Alright.

Madam?

What is it, Subbaiah? What brings you by?

There is a young girl who came here.

She wants some information. -Call her in.

Child, come in.

What do you want, dear?

I am an orphan.

This is my birth certificate.

I came here to find some information regarding who my parents are.

Oh!

I wrote this.

25/1/2009.

That night, a young woman came to the hospital in labour.

Do you know my mother, madam?

How does she look?

Who are my parents?

Please tell me, madam. Tell me, please.

I know who your mother is.

I know.

That night, when your mother was in labour, a person brought here. - We are here.

Doctor! Doctor!

Nurse?

She is a full-term pregnant woman.

Careful, dear.

Nothing will happen to you.

Careful.

Please hurry and take her in.

Nothing will happen to you. Just bear with it.

Bear with it.

Please bear with it. -Just a little more.

Doctor?

What is it?

Delivery case, sir.

It’s quite serious.

What do you want me to do?

I have some urgent work.

I need to leave.

There’s no one with her, sir.

You say that there is no one with her.

But if something happens to her, who will take the responsibility for it?

No, sir.

Please show a little bit of kindness, sir.

It isn’t my surname nor is she related to me in any other way.

You take care of it.

If she lives through it, send her home.

I need to go immediately. Go to her.

Such a pity.

" I’ve dug a well in my heart."

"How can I stop the flow?"

Calm yourself, dear.

Calm yourself.

"It’s all covered in darkness."

That day, I was able to deliver you...

but I couldn’t save your mother.

"How can I show you the light?"

Do you know anything else about my mother, madam?

No, dear.

That rickshaw man Ramulu might know something.

Where does he live?

I don’t know, dear.

You can go and enquire about him at the city centre, dear.

Careful, child.

Uncle, do you know an elderly man called Rickshaw Ramulu?

We don’t know, dear.

Uncle, do you know someone called Rickshaw Ramulu?

Rickshaw Ramulu?

We don’t know, dear.

Brother, do you know anyone called Rickshaw Ramulu?

There are no Richshaw’s around anymore, dear.

I don’t know him.

Aunty? -What is it, child?

Do you know someone called Rickshaw Ramulu?

No, dear.

We started this shop quite recently.

Brother, do you know anyone called Rickshaw Ramulu?

I don’t know who he is, dear.

Alright, brother.

Girl, are you looking for Rickshaw Ramulu?

Do you know him? -Yes, I know him.

Where does he live?

You mean that elderly man?

Yes. -I know him.

Come with me. I’ll show you.

Come with me.

What work do you have with him?

Stop right there!

Why?

You know Rickshaw Ramulu?

Yes, I do.

Where does he live?

Why should I tell you?

Stop there.

I’ll call the police and you can tell them.

Why should I tell you?

You ruined my chance!

Why are you looking for Rickshaw Ramulu, dear?

I wanted to ask him about my mother.

That idiotic man cheated me and did the same with your mother as well, huh?

It’s not that, aunty.

Come with me. I’ll show you.

There it is, child. The ramshackle structure there.

Is that the one, aunty?

Yes, that’s the one, dear.

Grandpa Ramulu? Grandpa Ramulu?

How many of you will come by?

Did that unscrupulous woman send you as a messenger?

Even at this age, won’t she leave my husband alone?

You shameless girl. Wait here, I’ll deal with you.

If I thrash you with this broomstick, you will come back to your senses!

She was the one who brought me here.

But I am here on another business.

When my mother was pregnant with me and in labor,

grandpa Ramulu was the one who brought my mother to the hospital and joined her there.

I came here to find out details about my mother and any other information I can get about her.

Could you please call him?

I’ll let him know. Wait here.

Dear, a girl came here to ask you some questions.

Get up and come out.

Who is it?

Who are you, dear? What do you want?

What work do you have with me?

Sampangi sent me here. -Sampangi?

What? My Sampangi sent you here? My Sampangi?

When we were young, we were passionate and painted the town red like those movie couples.

Our love was one of a kind.

Does she look like the movie actress of yesteryears?

Or did she turn old like this one here?

Fool!

You are close to your death bed but you never stopped lusting after her!

Listen to what the girl has to say first!

What do you want, dear?

Grandpa, fourteen years ago,

you took a pregnant woman in your rickshaw

and joined her in the Kakinada government hospital.

Do you remember that, grandpa?

I drove a lot of people around in my rickshaw. How will I remember all that, dear?

Please try and remember, Grandpa.

The nurse at the hospital told me that you were the one who admitted her.

What? The nurse told you.

Yes, I remember.

Sampangi was with me that day.

It was pouring heavily as well.

That looks like a woman.

Lady? Lady?

Get up…get up.

What are you doing here in this rain? What is it, dear?

My child…

Don’t be scared, dear.

Please save my child.

I am here, dear. Don’t be scared.

My child.

Who are you, dear? What is your name?

My name is Bharati?

Where are you from?

Sankhavaram near Kakinada.

Nothing will happen to your child, dear.

Please save my child.

I am here, child.

Please save my child, uncle. -Get up. Let’s head to the hospital.

I’ll take you. Please bear with it, dear.

Please don’t be scared.

Bharati.

She begged me and cried to save her child, dear.

I couldn’t see the pain she was in and joined her in the hospital.

But I was scared that if something went wrong, I might end up being stuck in a mess.

That is why I left her there and went away.

I am a sinner.

Who are you, dear?

The woman who begged you to save her child that day is none other than…

…. my mother, grandpa.

That means,

Is that you? Well, how is she?

She gave birth to me and died on the Hospital bed, grandpa.

Even though my mother is not alive anymore,

she kept the truth alive through you and renewed my hope.

I will meet you again, grandpa.

Listen, dear.

You tell me that your mother is not alive anymore.

Perhaps it would be better if you let this matter rest here.

No.

I want to know what happened to my mother.

Her people didn’t want anything to do with her and left her.

Why rake up the past?

My mother did not get rid of me and neither was I a burden.

She couldn’t live and that turned me into an orphan.

When I found out that she desperately begged for her to give birth to me,

I am obligated to know what happened in her life.

Most importantly, if I want to know who my father is, I must go there for sure.

Dear little fish, Don’t swim against the tide.

"Even if you are overwhelmed by tears beyond this veil,"

"Try and be strong"

We request you to vote for the contestant, T.L Achari,

who is contesting on behalf of the SRP party as a candidate for the upcoming panchayat elections.

Sirs, please vote for the lantern symbol.

Gentlemen, please cast your vote for the lantern symbol.

Ladies, please vote for the lantern symbol.

Do you understand?

Vote for the lantern symbol.

The announcement is over. You can all go about your business.

Uncle, I have quite a headache after shouting all day.

Give me some strong tea.

Stop right there.

See to that man.

What inhuman people!

Which party do you think would win in the upcoming election?

The person who casts his vote is like a sheep in the marketplace.

Whoever pays him money will own him.

That’s bad tea. -Get lost.

Grandpa, this is Sankhavaram, right?

Yes..

Wasn’t there a girl named Bharati?

Do you know where her house is?

Bharati?

Bharati? -Yes.

Who is Bharati?

It must be that girl.

That fishmonger Nari’s daughter.

Disgusting!

That disgusting fellow?!

Don’t you have the sense to enquire who’s asking such questions?

That girl’s house is on the outskirts of the village. Go about your way!

Get lost! Go away!

Wretched girl. Go!

Are you even human?

Don’t you ever change?

Stuck in your old ways of caste!

Girl?

Girl, I am talking to you.

Who are you looking for?

Bharati. -Bharati?

He left before the sunrise.

Why isn’t he back yet?

Why are you so anxious?

He can’t be in and out of the ocean like a thief who robbed you.

He went into the lap of Ganges River.

Look, he is heading this way.

Where is he? Is that him?

Here! Here!

We are heading right there.

What took you so long? Come fast.

I am on the way.

The market’s going to open soon. Come fast.

Hurry up, guys.

Uncle, were you waiting for me?

Of course, yes! First, get the merchandise off the boat.

Why are you guys staring? Unload the ship.

Aunt, lend me your hand.

Nephew, looks like you’ve got a good amount of catch today.

It’s all for you aunt.

It’s your choice if you want to dry this in front of your house or send it to the markets.

What’s going on? Why are you showering me with so much affection?

That is...

Why are you blushing while looking at your aunt?

I am not the reason he’s blushing so hard. He is in love with our daughter.

She is my daughter. She is in love with her education.

Is that so?

There she is. Ask her.

Yes, I’m going to get it all out in the open. Do you think I am scared?

Father, this is your lunch box.

I know you like your dried anchovies. I added brinjal to it and made a curry of it for you.

Excellent!

First have your food and then you can go about your work.

Alright, dear.

I am getting late to college. I shall take my leave.

Be safe, dear.

Alright.

Why are you dancing like an eel? Did you eat some rotten fish stew?

Don’t bother yourself with him, dear? You must be getting late for college. Go on ahead, dear.

Alright, father.

Bharati?

I need to ask you something.

What is it?

This king fish fell for that golden fish and wants to get married.

Tell that king fish that the golden fish is not interested.

What?

Why don’t you look at his eyes and say that?

Nephew, did I not say that she would get married to an educated guy?

Why are you harassing her?

There is no greater education than love, uncle.

The love I have for her is more than education.

"When the marigold smiles, the moonlight it casts feels just like this."

"You have thrown your kohl rimmed gazes at me."

"Like the rainbow, you gaze at me with wide eyes."

"I feel like I am swinging in a cradle." "You turned me into this."

"Just like the drops of rain dance on the leaves of the lotus flower."

"Like the mirror that’s on the hearts, it shines like a pearl."

"Like the dolls made of rubber, you have captured my smiles."

"You’ve caught me in your snare and thrown me into you."

"Like the bells in the temple, I’ve become attentive."

"I’ve learnt by rote the saga of love."

"I swear I am in love with you." "Like the water needle that tickles you."

"Honeyed rain falls on me." "All the sourness of the fruits tastes sweet."

"Why do you seem so?"

"I am like the first drop of rain that falls on the earth and excites it."

"Shall I become the pimple on the dimples of those creamy cheeks?"

Dear students, today, I am interested in finding out about the ambitions you seek in life.

What is it that you want to become?

Sir?

Tell me.

I want to become a chartered accountant.

Sit down.

Next?

Sir, I want to become a fashion designer.

Good.

Bharati, what about you?

The want the education that I learn today to help not just me

but many girls like me and especially those people who share socio-economic status like me.

That is why I want to become a district administrative officer.

Nowadays, people give more importance to their salaries than to the service they offer the mankind.

The vision of wanting your education to help others is indeed a noble one.

All the best.

Thank you, sir.

You guys risk your life in the ocean to bring the fish here.

And what you end up with is nothing more than mere pennies for you labor.

The people who use your labor earn in millions.

So, from today, if you sell me your fish, I promise I will give you a lawful price for your labor.

What do you say?

A person who works hard wants to be rewarded for his hard work.

We are hand to mouth people and if there is hope that we can progress further, what more could we ask for?

Will Basava Raju agree to this?

If we pay back the money we owe him, we are free to do as we please with our fish.

Who the hell is he is not to agree?!

Why are you being careless with your tongue?

Do you think you are brave enough to challenge Basava Raju?

Giri, if your lives are at stake, forget about just Basava Raju.

We would even challenge his father.

How dare you? How dare you say that?

Stop that!

What the hell?!

Hit them!

A person can go anywhere on this earth and conduct business.

He has that right.

Last time, there was someone just as you.

And the very next day, he washed up on the shore dead.

Here, the business is mine and I have all the power.

If anyone gets in my way, their head is mine as well.

Are you threatening me?

Give it to me!

A person like you should only fill his thoughts with savoring dishes made of fish.

But you must never think of getting into the fish business.

Who the hell are you?

Don’t you like being able to afford food?

Don’t get me into a state where I have to snatch that away from you as well.

Get lost!

My dear children of Jesus.

When you invite Jesus into your hearts and

worship him, you will experience true change in your lives.

If you want to wash away your sins and if you want to enter God’s abode after your death,

the only path you have is God’s path.

One minute.

Paster...

if there’s a person living with great freedom in this world, that’s possible only in this country.

The reason for that is our constitution.

If people live without fear,

overcoming illiteracy and moving towards literacy and equality…

…that has been possible because of the constitution written by B.R. Ambedkar.

If the religious texts ensure that the man lives under a spell and without reason,

our constitution ensures we tread the present path.

If possible, all the religions must rather teach our Indian constitution than their religious texts.

That would be helpful for the future generations.

I shall take my leave.

Aunt?

Aunt?

I am coming.

Why did you ask me to come here urgently?

Nothing much, Mahesh.

I want you to head to Bharati’s college and give her this lunch box.

Not just for the lunch box,

I am prepared to cross even the seven seas for her.

I am going to tell you something.

Tell me.

Get me married to her?

Destiny paired you guys up.

How do you think I have any say at all in this?

Well said, aunt.

Now watch me disappear and be back in a minute.

Be careful, Mahesh.

I am not stopping anywhere.

You look so handsome!

Hello, excuse me?

What is it?

I thought you were my sweetheart.

You are in no way in the same league as her.

Nonsense! Neither are you in our league.

If that’s the case, fine. Go about your business.

You can now proceed to discuss about the lecture we’ve had so far.

Do you have any doubts?

No, madam.

Namaste, madam.

What do you want?

My sweetheart.

There are a lot of sweethearts here. Tell me which sweetheart you are after.

Nonsense!

They are not as good as my sweetheart.

Hey!

I mean…

well…my sweetheart’s name is Bharati.

Madam, Bharati just left.

How could she have left?

I brought her lunch box.

What is it that you want us to do?

If you find her, go and stuff her with food.

Go. -Alright.

Where could she have gone?

Aunt?

Aunt?

What is it? Why are you panting?

Did Bharati come home?

No, She didn’t.

She didn’t come yet?

When I went to her college, the teacher told me that she left.

She must be around the college.

Did you look for her properly?

I checked the entire college for her, uncle.

Go home and check for her. -Alright.

You go to the main road and look for her.

Alright.

Kanakam?

Kanakam?

Yes, sister.

I’m coming.

What is it, sister?

Did you see my daughter Bharathi?

No, sister.

I wonder where she went.

Balaswamy?

Did you see my daughter Bharathi?

No, Narayana.

I wonder where she went after coming from the college.

I wonder where she went.

Siva?

Did you see Bharati?

No, buddy. -No...

She is not in the college and neither is she at home.

Where could she have gone?

Mahesh, did you find her?

No, aunt.

My dear child, where did you go?

Did you really search for her thoroughly?

You couldn’t find her anywhere?

I wonder where she is at?

Where the hell were you?

We were looking for you everywhere.

Where did you go, dear?

Mom!

Bharati, are you alright?

Are you okay?

Why did you leave without telling any of us?

Do you know how worried we all were for you?

What are all these injuries?

What happened?

I was in an accident, father.

Calm down... Calm down.

Calm down.

Bharati!

Bharati!

Bharati!

Get up. Slowly.

I prayed to the Ganges goddess and got some folk medicine.

If you spread this on your injuries, all your injuries will heal in no time.

It might burn a bit but you will be okay.

It will heal.

She will apply it herself.

Don’t you see me applying it?

Are you going fishing?

Yes, uncle.

It’s going to be almost a month’s trip.

Do you really have to go?

What do you mean?

Every time I said the same thing to him, you would always pick a fight with me.

That is what being in love means.

It’s hard for me to be far away from you.

But even so, I shall bear with it, Bharati.

What happened after that?

I am asking you.

Please tell me.

The eyes with which she pleaded me

and the words she spoke to me haunt me still.

On that very day, my uncle said something totally unexpected.

Mahesh!

Mahesh!

What is it, uncle?

Come a week early.

Why?

I want to get you and Bharati married.

Marriage?

Are you really the one putting forth this proposal?

What led you to this decision so out-of-the-blue?

A wedding cannot be held just because you and I are okay with it.

We should ask Bharati as well.

Even if I explain these things to you, I am sure you wouldn’t understand them.

Just hurry back.

So, is he my father?

What happened after that?

That one sentence filled me with so much hope before I set sail.

I set foot in the village after twenty days with the happy thought of getting married to Bharati.

[weeping]

Mom!

Sister? Sister? Wait.

What happened, sister? -They are coming!

They are coming!

Sister?

[weeping and screaming]

Mother…

Bharati, what happened?

What happened, dear?

They are killing me.

Hey... -Leave me.

Come with me.

Please no.

Leave her.

Father, don’t do it.

Get up!

Let me go.

Listen.

Let me go.

Even if he is the one who is going to marry you,

I am the one who will enjoy you.

You will settle down once you experience me.

Understand.

Father, don’t do it. Please, father.

Get lost!

I beg you... -Hey, Get up!

Get up!

Let me go, please.

Let me go!

There’s nothing wrong with butchering those scoundrels!

Come at me. Let’s see who remains standing.

Hey, go and get your wife.

Hey, go!

Where the hell are you going?!

Disgusting!

What a bas**rd you are!

You’ve killed your wife and your child.

You use your gay son to commit all sorts of crimes against women.

Come at me! Come at me!

You ruined my innocent daughter.

What more do you want from her?

They are going to keep saying the same thing.

Just go and get her out. -Go and drag her out!

If you lay a finger on my daughter, I will behead you.

Move!

Come on!

That way!

Hit him hard!

Let me go!

Don’t let them go! Kill them!

Slash them up!

Hey!

Hey!

How dare you raise your hand against me?

What makes you so arrogant?

She is his wife.

She is belong to him.

He can take her wherever he pleases or even kill her.

Who the hell do you think you are to question him?

Go and drag her out!

Sir, she ran away.

Veeru, where do you think she can go and how far can she really go?

Comb the entire village to look for her and drag her here!

Alright, sir.

I am disgusted with human beings.

All of the hunted a girl like some wild animals.

I thought the same.

I went mad over the fact that I was somehow responsible for the running away of the women that I so deeply loved.

I wanted to kill all those scoundrels!

But once I got to know the truth, I finally understood.

If I ever see her again, I am going to kill her!

Here... -Did he eat?

He hasn’t been eating anything at all.

How can we just let him be? Go and serve him food.

Alright, husband. -What horrid fate!

Mahesh!

Mahesh!

Mahesh!

How long are you going to be without eating?

Please have some food.

I don’t want it.

Please eat.

I told you that I don’t want it! Get away from here!

Hey, Mahesh! -Go!

Hey!

It is unfortunate that Bharati is not yours.

What can we do? It’s our horrid fate.

I don’t want it!

Please eat some food.

Please eat.

Come with me. He has gone crazy!

What's wrong with you?!

Give me the remote.

Here, sir.

Bharati, a resident of Sankhavaram, was caught red-handed in a brothel house in Kakinada.

I am responsible for all this.

I wanted money and luxuries...

and resorted to prostitution.

No one forced me into this.

My daughter is not that kind of a girl!

Someone must be framing her.

My girl can never do wrong.

My daughter will never do something like this.

You are the ones who are responsible for this.

Disgusting!

What horrid life you guys lead!

Mahesh...

you have dodged a bullet.

If not, you would have ended up with a whore for a wife.

You are not the only ones who have suffered a loss in reputation.

She has ruined the reputation of the entire village.

Nothing like this has ever happened in this village ever!

That family has absolutely no shame.

Life is not just about surviving.

You should have taught your child to lead a respectable life!

Disgusting!

Let’s go.

This is all a lie.

One day, you will have to pay for your sins.

You will be cursed with bad karma.

God will decide your fate.

Bloody scoundrels!

Mahesh?

Mahesh?

Mahesh?

Aunt, it looks like the entire village has decided to kill Bharati.

What do you mean they are trying to kill her?

My dear daughter! My daughter!

I didn’t commit any wrong doing. Please let me go!

Please let me go!

Such a shameless woman!

You have crossed all limits of decency, lost your chastity and traded your body for money.

You would have salvaged some of your dignity if you drank some poison and died.

Kill her!

No…

Hit her with stones and kill her!

Kill her!

throw a stone... Hit her hard! Kill her!

No!

Hit her!

Let’s pour some petrol on her and kill her!

Get the petrol.

Don’t hit me.

Pour the petrol.

Pour the petrol.

Please, don’t. I beg you.

Where do you think you are running away?

Pour it.

Hold her tight.

Leave her alone.

How dare you immolate a girl?

Scoundrels, Let her go!

Hold her. Don’t let her go.

Did they kill her?

Did the people of the village really kill her?

No.

She ran away to save her life.

No one knows if she lives or is dead.

We searched for her everywhere.

But we gave up.

You made me remember her by asking about her.

Can I get some water?

Aunt?

Can you get me some water?

Yes, I’m getting it for you, Mahesh.

These are the parents of Bharati.

Disgusting!

Are you even humans?

Girl, it’s not what it looks like. Listen to me.

Who is that girl?

Even I don’t know who she is.

She was asking me about Bharati.

"How far are you going to go? Where is your destination?"

"My moon pie, your life is all about journey in different directions."

"You have been subjected to injustice."

"What happened to you was a crime."

"This pain will never go away."

"You have been played by some evil men."

"And the people around you have turned you into a harlot."

Mother, I came this far to find out what happened in your life.

Your parents, the person who loved you,

this society and the people of the village…

…everyone saw you as the one who committed a sin.

What exactly happened, mother?

I wonder where you went from here.

"This life of mine keeps hoping and with bated breath keeps pushing forward."

Mahesh, where is that girl?

Which girl?

The girl who was searching for your sweetheart Bharati.

I don’t know anything about it.

Mahesh, the village is beginning to forget her and her sins.

If someone comes and tries to refresh people’s memories about the incidents and events that transpired….

…I will end up killing you guys this time. You would do well to remember it.

Who was that girl who came looking for Bharati?

What’s the connection between Bharati and her?

Namaste, sir. -Sit down.

What is the case regarding?

On March 15th of the year 2008, you arrested a woman called Bharati in a prostitution case, sir.

I want details regarding that case and a copy of the FIR.

Get some strong tea.

You want the case details of Bharathi who was charged with prostitution in the year 2008?

How are you related to that?

She is my mother, sir.

Oh, you are that prostitute’s daughter, huh?

Why would you search for someone like her?

We don’t have any details about her. Leave!

Excuse me, sir.

I am asking you with the rights I have as a citizen of this country.

You don’t have the authority to say no.

How dare you? What is it that you know about rights?

What?

Remember that, according to the Indian constitution, you exist to serve the needs of a common man.

Even if you don’t respond or treat me with disrespect,

I have legal right to take action against you according to IPC section 509.

If not, I will take this matter to the media and the courts.

I will complain about you to the human rights commission.

Girl, here it is.

You can leave.

"Our constitution is the one that gave us this freedom, isn’t it?"

"Jai Bheem! Jai Bheem!"

"Isn’t it the constitution that gave us these rights?"

My name is Bharati.

For the past few months, I have flouted all public decency and laws.

I was greedy for money and luxuries, and resorted to prostitution to fulfill my needs.

Swetcha, who is she?

She is my mother.

Was your mother a prostitute?

She made young woman do things of that sort?

A woman who was prepared to become a prostitute doesn’t fear the society.

A woman who fears the society will never wish to lead a life as a prostitute.

You mean to say that your mother did not commit any crime?

I feel the same.

But I am going to find out what happened.

It was brothel case.

It was a hot topic then.

But if your mother was a political leader or a movie celebrity,

we would have gotten our TRPS up and even boosted publicity for you.

But since she is an ordinary woman, it’s of no use.

So, sorry.

Why aren’t you asleep yet?

When I look at you, I can see that you are mentally very disturbed.

First, get some sleep.

Good morning, sir.

Sit down, girl. You look very young.

What is the problem?

My mother’s name is Bharati, sir.

It’s a prostitution case.

And this happened over 14 years ago.

Yes, sir. I need this case reopened, sir.

What are you going to achieve through that?

Do you want to tell the entire world that your mother was a prostitute and that you are her offspring?

My mother did not commit a crime, sir.

That is not for you and I to decide.

The courts are the ones who should declare that.

And the courts have already decided in this case.

Anyways, I don’t take up such useless cases. You can leave now.

Go.

Madam? -What is it, dear?

Listen, I am the president of the woman’s association.

But I don’t get involved in prostitution cases. Sorry.

Madam, please listen to me… -Please, go.

Move..

Move...

Let me go. Who are you?

Let me go!

Let me go!

Who are you people? Let me go!

Let me go!

"Lord Anjaneya, oh pleasant one"

"The one born of the wind."

"We hail you! We hail you!"

"Hail Lord Anjaneya and his wisdom and persona"

"The learned one who is worshipped in the three worlds."

"The messenger of lord Rama; one with unshakable strength."

"The son of Anjani; the name of the wind."

Who are you, dear?

Why are you searching for Bharati?

We’ve been waiting for Bharati for the past fourteen years.

We got tired of waiting. We don’t know where she is.

Do you know Bharati?

Where is she?

What is she doing?

Is she alive?

Tell me, child.

Don’t ask me anything now.

Dear...

Swetcha?

Sir.

He is one of the top ten business men in our state. He is a very good person.

What brings you by, dear?

Who is Bharati?

My mother, sir.

What?

Yes, sir.

She is my mother.

My mother was framed in this case, sir.

I strongly believe that there is a big conspiracy behind this, sir.

The legal systems don’t rely on beliefs of people.

It needs evidence.

My mother was born to a poor family.

She saw the lives of the people around her and immersed herself deeply in her studies.

And someone like her was forced to stop her education,

let go of the man she fell in love with, was married to a gay man…

…and pushed into hell.

When my mother feared for her life and ran away,

they pushed her into prostitution and brought her into flesh trade.

When she was saddened by this turn of events and came back to her village to be with her people…

…the people of the village who were supposed to protect her,

showed how inhumane they can be by pelting her with stones and tried to immolate her.

I don’t know where she went after that and what happened to her either.

But one night,

when she was pregnant and in full term, she was abandoned on the road.

When a rickshaw puller took pity on her and joined her in the hospital,

she gave birth to me and died, sir.

I am deeply saddened by the injustice meted out to my mother, sir.

Instead of going through all this turmoil, it would be better if I died.

That is a wrong way of thinking. Besides, you don’t have that right.

That becomes suicide.

If killed, that becomes murder.

If the courts hang you, that becomes punishment for the crime committed.

According to the article 21 of the Indian constitution,

the citizens have the right to live a respectable life and die a respectable death.

If people who suffer from incurable disease and just live in vegetative states,

the court grants them death through mercy killing.

In Telugu, it’s called Karunya maranam.

It is a form of quick painless death.

Does the Indian constitution have nothing to help people suffering from emotional diseases?

Mercy killing.

Do you know what that means?

Yes, sir. I do.

Despite knowing what it means, you still continue to demand that.

Don’t you know that that’s wrong?

Does that mean you did this deliberately?

I couldn’t bear the injustice meted; and being in a helpless state, I resorted to this, sir.

The people she trusted the most spat on her.

The people of the village pelted stones on her and chased her away.

All the love and affection didn’t rescue her.

All the bonds of affection and love were severed.

She was left as a person who did wrong in the eyes of the society.

And finally, my mother gave birth to me and died, sir.

What can be a bigger punishment than when girl who lived all her life with self-respect is branded as a prostitute, sir?

The court has considered all the information presented by Swetcha

and examined all the evidence presented to it.

The court orders the police department to appoint a special police officer

to investigate the case further and present the culprits to the court.

"I wonder which direction are those eyes of yours looking at."

"Your story has moved the courts."

"I wonder when you will get rid of the handcuffs imprisoning your hands"

"And when they do, one of the sadness will be wiped away from the heart."

"How can you expect long life in the lives of those in ruins?"

"When looking at the world around, how can the heart not be heavy?"

"What are the women subjected to over and over again?"

"It would have been better if the waves crashed at us and dragged us away."

"A life keeps running between hope and despair."

"Even if this story is erased from the history, you keep writing it again."

"Even if the society sacrificed your life, your tears will never go to waste."

"Will the boundaries ever hold?"

"Oh woman, did the people try to kill you because of your past?"

"There’s been injustice."

"All that is left is anger."

"When the voice from the throat rips open and fires up the institutions, it brings them down"

This is an announcement for the people of Shankavaram.

The daughter of fishmonger Narayana, Bharati, who was driven out of the village over 15 years ago, is dead.

Her daughter, Swetcha, filed a case against the people of the village

saying that we are responsible for the death of her mother.

And thus, the notices from the court were served to the people of the village.

Therefore, the people of village are requested to present themselves in front of the magistrates

and the police officers that would be coming to the village tomorrow morning.

We thought we got rid of her..

Now we have another one around our necks.

Bharati’s death is good riddance.

But why is her daughter hellbent of embarrassing us again?

It’s a good thing that that wretched woman died!

Why would she set her devil-of-a-child upon us?

Let’s go and deal with that in the courts.

Let’s go. Let’s go.

All the evidence related to the case are in this file.

Okay, sir.

My lord. -Sir.

Listen, given the interest the governor has expressed in this case,

this case has taken on a special status.

Therefore, none of the culprits will ever go scot-free if proven guilty.

Tell us the truth.

I am the one responsible for this.

Buddy, who is that gold fish?

I must taste that fish today.

Narayana, are you bringing the girl into work?

Not at all, sir.

My daughter is studying.

She is going to study well and get a good job.

Why do folks such as you even study?

You just need to dry fish at home and teach her how to cook them.

If she learns to cook well and feed her husband,

she is going to have a peaceful married life.

If we do exactly as you asked, we might live peacefully

but we would never have a respectable life.

If one wants a respectable life,

it’s only possible through education.

That is why I am studying.

Just because she is educated, a lower caste woman dares challenge my opinions?

Hi.

Is your name Bharati?

You must be the daughter of Narayana who works at the fishing yard.

Am I right?

Yes.

And who are you?

I am Basavaraju’s son.

I was inspired by what you said.

I love education as much as you do.

Thank you.

What are you doing here?

I am waiting for an auto.

I am heading towards the fishing yard. I shall drop you.

That’s not necessary. You can go.

You should think twice before accepting help from a stranger.

But we are from the same village.

So, please?

It’s alright. You can leave.

I am sorry.

I cannot leave you alone here.

Please.

Please.

In this semester exams, Bharati has emerged as the topper.

Bharati, congratulations.

If you don’t come to me now…

If you don’t want the public to see you naked,

Bharati?

you must come to me in the next ten minutes.

Bharati!

Do you understand?

Don’t you hear me calling your name?

What are you thinking about?

You should be happy about how beautiful you are.

Why are you crying?

You would understand what I am going through if your mother or your sister was in my place.

What the hell are you talking?

I will kill you.

What brings you by, sir?

I spent a lot of money in to construct this guesthouse.

Why wouldn’t I come occasionally to stay?

Why is my son’s car here?

Let me go!

Well… -Let me go!

What’s all the noise coming from inside?

Who the hell is she? -Let me go!

Who the hell is she?

Who the hell are you?!

Father, I want this girl!

Disgusting cheap... fellow!

You should use and abandon low-caste girl like her.

Why would you talk about keeping her as your mistress?

Sir, please save me. Please save me.

How dare you sleep with my son?

Are you even human?!

You...

Get up.

He was the one who raped me and ruined me.

Look at this! Look here!

Please sir...

Sir, if you continue to hit her, she will die.

And if that happens, it would be a problem for you and your son.

My wife died and my son isn’t interested in women.

We are a household that’s feeling the lack of a woman’s touch, sir.

If you give it some thought, both our problems will be solved, sir.

Please think it over, sir.

No, sir. Please, no.

Hey.. -sir...

Drag her parents here.

Alright, sir.

Not just your parents…

I am going to show your naked pictures to the entire village

and tell them that you are Narayana’s daughter.

I will make sure all the surrounding villages talk about you.

After that, I will kill your parents

and your sweetheart and make the public believe

that they committed suicide because of embarrassment.

That is why, shut your mouth and lay low.

Do you understand?

Hey, you! Sir.

Come and stand beside her.

Okay sir.

Move!

Move!

Hey, Move!

Bharati! -Mother!

What is happening here?

You didn’t teach your young daughter any fear.

Instead, you let her roam around scot-free without consequence.

Did you send her to sin around?

No, sir.

We might be hard working people.

But we are not people who commit sins to get ahead.

My daughter is not that kind of a girl, sir.

Please don’t frame her.

Even if your tongue lies, the eyes never lie.

Well, it’s not too late.

Get those two married.

Daughter… -Mother.

You will at least be able to salvage your reputation.

But if this gets out in the village,

all of you might end up consuming poison out of shame.

Don’t harm my child. -Veeraswamy...

take these two and get them married in a temple.

And take them to your house. -OK, sir.

Please, don’t. -Take them.

Please, don’t. -Don’t do that.

Come with me!

Please let my daughter go!

Come with me! -Please let my daughter go!

Come with me! -I am begging you.

I am telling you to stop it! Let her go!

I saw her with my son and wanted to kill her right there.

I thought if I get her married, that would be the end of it all.

But she ran away and was found by the Kakinada police.

I will kill you.

Constables, bring them with us.

Mr CI, what happened?

You would get the idea after you take a look at this, sir.

I wanted to get rid of her right there.

They raped an innocent girl, sir.

What do you want us to do, sir?

They must be killed in an extrajudicial manner.

Idiots! Get lost!

She has all the evidence.

If this gets out, it would not only harm your brother.

It might end up costing you your political career as well.

You...I am going to kill her. -Stop that, sir!

Stop it.

She is always going to end up being a danger to us.

To ensure that she never speaks about this ever again,

we need to ruin her reputation in the public.

Do you understand?

You can leave, sir.

I will take care of it.

I have a plan to murder her. But she is escaped again.

After fourteen years, this girl came looking for her.

We wanted to know about Bharati through her.

But Mahesh got in the way.

This is what happened, sir.

You people should be killed.

What did my mother ever do to you?

Hey, let go!

Why did you do that to her? -Swetcha, stop!

You need to be killed! -Swetcha, stop! - Order! Order!

No one should be spared.

They must all be killed. -Swetcha, stop it!

I will kill you. -I said, stop it!

Swetcha, sit down. -Let me go.

Silence!

Swetcha, calm down!

Swetcha, sit down…

Swetcha, control… Control yourself.

Cool. Control yourself.

"How can one hope for a lengthy lifespan in those whose lives have been crushed?"

After examining the statements provided by the accused,

the court orders the accused to be taken in custody for the crime of…

…brutally harassing, threatening, sexually exploiting

and even framing the innocent girl as a whore in front of the court and the entire public.

The court understands the plight of the victim.

"They have sacrificed the life of a child with future."

That is the reason why the court declares that the primary accused,

Bharati, to be innocent and free of charges against her.

With regards to Swetcha’s wish to know who her father is...

the court orders the DNA test of all those who have perpetrated the crime against Bharti.

The court is adjourned for tomorrow.

The court is adjourned.

After examining all the details of Bharati’s case,

the court observes that Bharati was subjected to mental

and physical torture by Aravind, Bharat and Shiva,

and have thus been indirectly responsible for her death.

According to IPC section 376, the three culprits are sentenced to lifetime imprisonment.

Additionally,

…In order to hide the crimes committed by their children,

ex- MLA Basavaraju, MLA Poturaju and their followers Veera Swamy and his son,

have smeared the reputation of an innocent girl…

…and are therefore sentenced to rigorous imprisonment for 5 years under IPC section 354.

The court warns the people of the village for having harassed an innocent girl

and being indirectly responsible for her death

and reminds them to conduct their lives with maturity and responsible public behavior.

The court orders the people of the village to go to an orphanage...

and offer their services to the children and pay for it through their own pockets.

Swetcha’s request to the court regarding the identity of her father,

has been considered and the DNA tests were ordered on the perpetrators.

The court declares that none of the DNA matches the culprits.

Given that the court has concluded its judgment with regards to Swetcha’s mother,

the court orders further investigation into the search for Swetcha’s father.

The court warns Swetcha to not abuse the law and courts’ time with wrongful petitions such as Mercy Killing.

The court is adjourned.

Your fight is inspirational, dear.

We have all seen mothers sacrificing their lives for their daughters.

But you are the only daughter that I have seen who fought for the injustice faced by your mother.

I am really proud of you. I shall take my leave.

Careful.

You are not an orphan.

We are here for you. -Swetcha, come with us.

Come, let’s go home, dear.

Swetcha! -Swetcha!

Listen to me once.

Swetcha? Swetcha?

You have finally brought your case to the courts.

Swetcha, one minute? -Swetcha, one minute.

What is that you want to say to the society?

Everyone knows the name of their caste, their surname and their community’s name

but people like me are known only as orphans.

We became orphans because our parents didn’t want us and so abandoned us.

And the society keeps reminding us of this and won’t let it rest.

This entire endeavor to show that orphans like me are just like the people in the society.

Swetcha, do you think you would get the justice you seek through this case?

Was your decision to fight and take the matter to the courts solely yours

or is there someone behind the scenes?

Who do you think is your father?

Do you think you might end up being known to the world as the daughter of a prostitute?

Tell me, Swetcha.

A lot of orphanages these days run on the donations provided by benefactors.

But do you know what happens when people like you come out in the public,

and target and blame such benefactors?

No matter how much you fight,

the entire country will know you as the orphaned daughter of a prostitute.

Swetcha, stop… -Just a minute.

There have been many twists and turns in Swetcha’s endeavor to find out who her parents are.

But she has managed to remove the false accusations against her mother

and ensured that the perpetrators are punished to the full extent of law.

Let’s hope that her determination to find who her father is proves successful.

Prasad?

Yes, sir. She is the same girl.

Sir, the tweet you have put out about this girl has brought her to light

and showed her struggle to find her parents.

The credit is all yours, sir.

It’s great, sir.

When a young girl is trying to find who her parents are,

this society is busy turning words into nails in the coffin.

This is truly a pitiable situation.

Yes, sir.

How can we console that girl, sir?

Let’s give her a good job in the company, sir.

Let’s get her married to a good guy.

Let’s give her some money as well, sir.

I don’t think we should do any of that, sir.

Let’s keep her with us and get her a good higher education.

What do you say, sir?

If we do as you suggest,

we can only wipe her tears.

But I want to give her the kind of trust she needs to forget all about the past

and stay happy for the rest of your life.

Right sir.

Yes.

Hey!

Stop right there!

Hey!

Come on, move.

Where is she?

Search there. -This way.

This way.

She is not here, brother. -Come here. Hurry!

Come on, move.

Where is she?

Search there.

Come, come. Keep moving.

Look there.

Hey, Let’s go.

Go that way.

Search everywhere...

Look there.

There.

Look around that machine.

Check beside it.

Where the hell is she?

She is not here. -I can’t find here.

Look there.

Look there.

Look there.

Right there.

Don’t spare here. -Look there.

Swamy, Shekar look there.

Did you see there?

Come here.

Swetcha?

Let’s go...

Swetcha?

Good morning, sir.

Swetcha?

How are you, dear?

I am better, sir.

Even though you were under the protection of the police, some tried to kill you.

Who do you think they are?

Look at all this,

I think it would be best if you took a break from the case.

Sir, I didn’t expect you to say something like that.

You were the one who inspired me to come this far, sir.

I heard you talk about mercy killing and researched about it.

I used that as my weapon and came this far, sir.

How can you ask me to give it all up when I’ve come this far?

Swetcha, it’s not what I meant.

To disprove the allegations and accusations against my mother,

I don’t mind the cost to my life and even my life, sir.

Are you going to announce the new CEO who is going to replace you?

What is the reason for today’s press meet, sir?

Even though the industrialist Rama Krishna Raju carried out

your charitable ventures through Rama Krishna trust, he never made them public.

So, what’s the reason for such a sudden press meet, sir?

Since it is such a rare occurrence,

the media in both states is in frenzy over Mr. Rama Krishna Raju calling for a press meet.

What is he going to do now?

He is going to be here soon.

He will answer all your questions.

Why don’t you guys calm down and cooperate so we can conduct this smoothly?

There he is.

Okay, I’ll call you again.

Namaste to everyone here.

Namaste, sir.

Please.

What is it that you wanted to tell us, sir?

The entire nation is waiting for your words.

The world got to know about Swetcha through me and now,

she is a very well-known name.

Sita’s tears were responsible for the destruction of Lanka.

Draupadi’s sadness led to the Kurukshetra war.

Before Swetcha’s tears lead to another such calamity,

we must pacify her.

Yes, after giving it a long of thought, I have come to a decision.

Swetcha cannot be happy until she meets her father.

That is why I have decided to take on the role of her father.

Was that confusing?

I have decided to adopt Swetcha as my daughter.

Sir, there is a limit to charity.

Why would you want to adopt an orphan whose mother was a prostitute?

If you take this step, there will be a lot of such girls coming out in the public, sir.

In today’s world, people consider their parents a burden.

But Swetcha’s struggle to find her parents is admirable and that is what moved me.

That is why I have taken this decision.

There will be no change in my decision. Tomorrow is an auspicious day.

I invite you all to come.

Sir? -Sir?

Swetcha! -Swetcha?

Just one photo. -Just a minute...

[chantas]

Please go inside and change into these clothes.

Listen, dear.

If he is adopting you, dear girl… that means God himself is adopting you.

You are lucky to be adopted into that abode.

Let’s go and get you changed.

Swetcha? Stop.

You must definitely come.

I will be waiting for you.

Why do you look like that, dear child?

You should be excited and happy. Why do you look so downcast?

In a few hours, you are going to be my adopted daughter.

You are going to be the heir of RR group of companies.

How should you conduct yourself?

Like a queen.

Go ahead and get ready, child.

Father?

I understand how desperate you are to have a father, child.

Once we complete the adoption ceremony,

you can call me father with the full legal authority and with God as your witness.

We are going to be bonded forever.

Really?

So, you mean to say that we are going to be father and daughter through this ceremony?

Yes, of course.

You are going to be the heir of my entire fortune.

So you mean to say that I am not your heir now?

Doesn’t the blood that flows through my veins yours?

You want to bury the truth and show the world that I am your daughter through a lie.

You mean to say that you want to be remembered as the greatest person alive in the society, father?

Until now, I had my doubts about you.

From what Ramulu told me, I always wondered about the connection

between the car from which my mother was thrown out in the middle of a rainy night and you.

(Singing a raunchy tune)

Can’t you see, you rogue?

I am watching you. Wait.

Your number is 1122.

I will how far you go! I’m coming for you.

Stop right there. I am coming for you.

What is the connection between that car and my mother who lives in a village by the sea?

How did my mother get here?

I came so far looking for answers and came to your house.

I enquired about you and met the wife of Swamy who works at your guest house.

Is Mr. Rama Krishna Raju’s personal assistant here?

He is here.

There he is.

My mother wanted to tell you the truth and convince you.

But Swamy who knew your character, helped my mother.

Since Swamy knew about it, you murdered Swamy brutally

and wanted to make sure that my mother’s story was nowhere in history.

But you were nowhere found in my mother’s story.

But when I enquired as to how my mother found her way to your place,

my doubts about you strengthened.

Why do you need those masks of sincerity, kindness, love and affections?

Can’t you live without them?

How can I do that?

What happened in that moment was a mistake.

You wanted me to get married to a woman who lost her virginity to some man?

Why did a man of your stature needed to be in my mother’s life?

Who came into whose life?

When I abandoned her on the road,

who do you think took her in?

I was the one who did that!

Namaste, sir.

Please be brave.

Swamy? -Sir.

Get the food ready. -Okay sir.

Go and freshen up.

Forget about everything that has happened to you.

You don’t have to be scared here.

Stay here until everything settles down.

Swamy.

Sir.

Take good care of her. -Yes, sir.

That moment…

That mistake happened in such a short time.

Don’t you think it’s wrong to deny your wrong doings?

What is it?

You are questioning me?

You dare question me?

That day, it was your mother’s turn.

And today, it’s you.

You are questioning me like I am a sinner.

What is the wrong that I committed?

I told your mother to get rid of that momentary lapse in judgement.

But she…

Do you know what she did?

Swamy?

Why did you ask me to come here urgently?

What happened?

Well..

Could you please come inside once?

Our child.

Our child? -Yes.

Go and get an abortion.

I am prepared to die but will not kill my child.

If you want, I will go far away from you and live with my daughter.

Get an abortion.

No, I won’t.

Get an abortion. -No, I will not.

Get an abortion. -No, I will not.

Get it.

Sir…

Dear?

Swamy take her away and get rid of her.

Get rid of her.

Dear?

Get up.

She didn’t listen to me.

She didn’t listen to me.

She left herself in you.

You are the biggest evidence to the tiniest mistake that I made.

To live and protect my reputation,

I am not prepared to forgive myself.

If I can keep my reputation intact with death,

I will resort to it.

You would kill for your reputation?

Yes!

I got rid of your mother that day so that she cannot be a hinderance to me.

And today, I wanted to get rid of you so that you don’t become an obstacle.

You look confused.

You escaped there and came this far.

I am adopting you so that the public doesn’t find out this truth.

You were known to them as a prostitute’s daughter.

But now you will be introduced as my heir.

Even if the adoption ceremony goes ahead or stops,

I am still going to end up as a great man.

But you…

You…

you are going to be perceived as an unfortunate girl who couldn’t make use of her luck.

Make your choice as to which side you want to stick to.

You used my mother for your needs.

And today, you want me as a sacrifice for your arrogance and your greed for power?

A woman will always have to sacrifice for a man’s need and arrogance.

Whether that’s physically or figuratively is entirely dependent on the man’s need.

When I am not recognized as your blood,

there is no meaning in being considered as your adopted daughter.

Listen, none of your wealth, power and money will hold me down as your daughter.

Weren’t you the one who said Sita’s tears led to Lanka’s ruins?

Draupadi’s sadness was the seed for Kurukshetra war.

My mother’s exploitation will lead to your ruin. It’s inevitable.

Are you cursing me?

If your mother is the bow that shot you as the arrow,

I am not sitting in Lanka and waiting for my ruin.

I am not Duryodhana in Kurukshetra.

I am the leader of this business enterprise.

I am the one who commands this society.

I am the one who decides who gets to live and how.

As a human being, you don’t regret or feel remorse for your actions.

You have no feelings or thought of regret towards what you’ve done.

It’s because of selfish people like you that people like me are reduced to orphans.

You don’t have to accept me as your daughter.

I am disgusted to have you as my father.

You are disgusted by me?

The lives of orphans such as you are dependent on people like me.

If I was really scared of death, how will I be your child?

How could I have come this far, father?

I will kill you.

You’re going to kill me?

I will kill you.

You’re going to kill me, huh?

Yes, I will kill you.

It’s your choice as to whether you want to kill me or kill yourself.

Swetcha has caught the prominent industrialist Rama Krishna Raju red-handed.

Swetcha struggled all these days to meet her father and finally met him.

The prominent industrialist, Rama Krishna Raju, brutally murdered Bharati

and was in the midst of killing his daughter Swetcha.

Swetcha was able to bring the dark side of the industrialist to light.

The women’s organizations are demanding the hanging of the industrialist.

Father?

Right here.

One more thing.

If there is another life after this, don’t be born as a man.

That’s because there isn’t another orphan who wishes to bear with a father like you.

Swetcha, why didn’t you get changed?

What happened?

Sir? What happened, sir? - What happened, sir?

"Do you, at least now, know the value of the tears?"

"She has gotten rid of the stain on her reputation and won success."

"Our constitution has given us lives that have freedom and meaning."
