- Where is your father hiding? - I don't know!
- Why hit a young child? - I was asking where his father was.
So, must you hit a young boy? Aren't you ashamed? Leave him!
- He will tell us if we hit him a few times. - Leave him. Go out.
Don't fear me. You are not in danger. Nor your father. Go and tell him.
No one will do anything to you.
- Did the cops hit you? - It's alright. I didn't tell them anything.
Why are the police seeking you out? Calling you a terrorist. Why?
They say they'll kill you at sight. Is it wrong to be a union leader?
Along the streets of a southern city, the one who came like a deer,
Who had hit you?
Oh rising moon, do not fade. Do not cry yourself away any more.
The heart cannot bear any more tears.
Along the streets of a southern city, the one who came like a deer,
Who had hit you?
Stealing scums! - You're a Tamilian?
Why run away from home? Did you fail your exams?
Then did you fight with family? - I have no one at home.
Did you make trouble? Steal money? Then?
I killed someone
Along the streets of a southern city, the one who came like a deer,
Who had hit you?
Oh rising moon, do not fade. Do not cry yourself away any more.
The heart cannot bear any more tears.
Along the streets of a southern city, the one who came like a deer,
Who had hit you?
Can I ask you something? You pray everyday and go to the mosque.
You donate to anyone who asks. But at night, you smuggle in goods.
Isn't it wrong?
No. Anything that can help people is not wrong.
Can't you go elsewhere to live? Evacuate! Evacuate!
If I hit you, you will die.
Did you get hit alot? - Did you get hurt?
Why are you in this state? Go!
He's sick but wants to go out to sea. - You didn't tell him well!
He'll only listen to you. - Where is he?
Give that to me. - I've given my word.
- Doesn't he have other men? - Yes, tell him you're not well.
Not that. Munnusamy's mother died and he has no money.
So, you want to go out to sea and die is it?
I promised him money for the funeral. I won't go back on my word.
Your word will stand. Go and sleep. - What are you saying?
- I will get it. - I'm telling him not to go and you want to start.
No, let this sin end with me.
No, this isn't a sin. Nothing is wrong if it can help others.
Take Father and go.
- Don't worry, I'm here. - Tie the tubes to the bags of salt.
- So many. Oh, its salt. - That is what I said. - Are we trading salt?!
Listen and tie it. - This is what happens with newcomers.
- I was checking for ropes. - The ropes are here.
What are you doing? Who will answer for the goods? Why throw them?
Do you know the price of each? Gone! We're dead when we get back!
Go and row the boat! - I don't know!
The customs officers are here! We will go in for having the goods!
Only if the goods are on board. - You threw them over didn't you?!
Don't overdo it! - But how will we answer to Durai when asked for it?
You threw it with bags of salt! How do we bring the goods up?
- What happens to the salt? - It'll be wet! - And? - It will dissolve!
- Then the tubes will float up. - So will the goods! You're a genius!
- The money; then the goods! - Throw his 200 rupees at him!
Don't send 200! Send 2000! - What? 2000?
Father only took 200; what are you doing?
Do you know what Durai will do? - Pay up and take the goods!
- If I don't? - I'll throw the goods! - Threatening me? - No!
- Do you know its value? - No you tell me! - Stop it!
- Then the money? - I'll give it! Take what you had asked for!
Hussein's men? 2000? Tell me! - Yes Sir.
Aren't you ashamed? Get our inspector! Hussein mustn't live!
How was it? Why this much of money?
Wages. Your true wages for the risks that you take.
I don't want so much. - It's for those who come seeking your help.
- My wages are 200. - Yes, I took that for myself and Selva.
Come quickly. - Where? - To a place of good fun!
My laughter is the festival of lights. Every night here is sleepless.
I am a flower that blossom with you. The nector of celestial beings.
My laughter is the festival of lights. Every night here is sleepless.
There isn't much to this world. There is no day or night here.
Everything that comes has to go. Even the moon fades away.
As my body is yearning away, I see you here!
The time is right. Come!
My laughter is the festival of lights. Every night here is sleepless.
I am a flower that blossoms with you. The nector of celestial beings.
My laughter is the festival of lights. Every night here is sleepless.
When did the waves go to sleep? When did they cross the shores?
Instruments care not who strum them... sweet music always abounds!
I too am an instrument in the hand that strums!
At the time when the diamonds are shining in the sky!
The time is right! Come!
My laughter is the festival of lights. Every night here is sleepless.
I am a flower that blossoms with you. The nector of celestial beings.
My laughter is the festival of lights. Every night here is sleepless.
Are you a Tamilian? Can I ask you something?
Could you let me go off early? At about one is enough.
Why do you need to go out and earn somemore?
No, I have a maths exam tomorrow. If you let me go, I can practice.
Are you studying? In a school?
- What school? - Nawaraji. - Which grade? - 10th.
Its the midterms tomorrow.
If you go they'll send someone else in.
Just let me off at 1. I will sit here and study.
Books?
Go on. Study.
The police came and took father away last night. He has yet to return.
Why? What harm did he do to anyone? Why did kill him? Tell me!
You promised to get me what I want. I want him now! I want him!
Are you happy now? He was peacefully earning a little.
You interfered! Look at him now! You killed those reliant on him too!
Who brought him in? - That Inspector!
Where is he now? - No one knows. - Look after Shakila.
- Everyone says they didn't see anything. - You speak Tamil. Ask them!
He was killed in broad daylight! What do you mean by no one saw?
I asked; shouted and threatened. But no one is forthcoming.
All these people didn't see anything? We must make them talk!
Who killed the Inspector? - I don't know! I didn't see.
Until someone comes forth with information, this boy will get hit!
I know! I saw it!
Do you know who killed him? - Yes. - Who?
If you're scared to say it out aloud, tell me in private.
It's not fear but pride! Pride that we have a man to kill this animal!
Pride that our women and kids are safe! Pride of our new confidante!
Why should we hand him? For your medals? We'd rather die!
Look we didn't see anything! They're hitting children.
You can hide the truth but remember- the dead man is an officer.
We won't let the matter rest.
- I don't want. - We ate... - I don't want anything. - Why this?
- It's enough you came. - Leave it. It will be such from now. Come.
He has been mentally retarded since birth.
Ask if she is the Inspector's wife.
I am indebted to the officer. I came to pay back the debt.
I will try to pay his income every month. Tell her.
- What are you saying? - Money - I don't want it.
This is not for you. For your son. I know the tramau of losing a dad.
I don't want this boy to suffer. Don't refuse.
I will somehow pay back my debts.
- They want to build a factory. - Houses? - Demolishing it.
- How? Is the land his? - Yes. Apparently, he has bought it.
- Who? - That Seth.
Anyone speaks Hindi around here? - He knows.
Do you speak it well? - Yes I know. - Come.
- He says it's work... - Yes, but he is doing it at our house. Ask him.
- He's building a 10 lakh. - There are 10 thousand lives here.
Who has he asked for this?
- You're here in person. - How are you?
We were lost. You came at the right time. Sit down.
- What is this? - Yes, Velu? - They're building a factory here.
- Seth has bought the place. - But so many of us live here.
What can we do? It's government land and he bought it.
- Can't you put in a word for us? - I did. But he shows me the deed.
- What do we do? - No choice. Leave. We didn't pay rent or tax.
How much did Seth pay you? What was our price?
Tell us. What was our price?
Come later. I am going with Seth.
What is this? What is all this?
We have come to show Seth what it means to lose one's home!
Listen to me! Leave him! Leave him!
Ask Seth to tear up the deed!
Tear it! Tear it!
Can you remember me? How was the maths? You wrote it right?
If you don't like me, tell me. I won't disturb you.
It's not that.
I'm scared that I might cry if I talk to you.
Who else do I... see I told you I would cry!
Cry. Cry.
I am going to marry Neela. Here. Now.
What is all this suddenly? Don't you at least need a nupital string?
Tell the priest and arrange for it. Go.

Their wealth comes to 100 crores but do they look like it?
There's no nation or good they haven't seen! Wanted by all places!
Now, we're number 5.
What is 400 in Hindi?
Telugu... - You can't speak it? It's alright.
Looks like big trouble. They're clashing. Do you understand it?
Reddy wants out at the harbour for 6 months due to the cops.
The other says that is not possible. Isn't that it?
Not only that. 30 lakhs of goods are in the boat. Reddy can't get it.
Reddy says it is not possible. I would like to try once.
You want to do something which we can't do?
- I will bring their goods out. - If you get caught, that's it!
But if I bring it out?
Tell him that if I can do what he can't, then the harbour is mine!
Tell them!
You killed them off!
We're out at sea after so long. But empty handed!
We should have brought drinks! - You could have if you wanted to!
I came alone. - If you're that desparate, bring a girl!
- What? - If you're that desparate, why not bring a girl too?
The moon is high on the sky! The girl is on the boat!
It is dancing and seeking you out! What is it?
When the sun sets, a companion is needed.
The young one's dance will end only with dawn!

I have brought Kohli's and Bhai's goods.
I don't want money. This is my present to the Reddiars.
- We mustn't let him off. - He got away though we told customs.
We should have whacked him up! It's all too late now!
This will hurt our family honour!
This hurts not just our honour but our family itself!
Kill. Velu, his wife and 2 kids. None of them should be alive.
Looks like my child might die! Save my child! Save my child!
Baby has a high fever. You must help.
Come tomorrow morning.
- The child might die! - No admission.
The child is dying. Tell him!
Ask him what his name is.
Ask him what his address is.
Ask him if he has kids and family.
For his kid to be well, our kid too has to be well. Tell him.
Go. Go and treat the child.
What were you doing? Why didn't you call the ambulance?
We did. But they said no. - Why? - Because it is the slum side...
- So they won't come to the slum? - No. It has never come before.
- How old is the child? - 1 1/2 years old.
Will the doctor give life if the child dies? That's the worth of the poor!
Ask him what the cost of an ambulance is. - 40 to 50 thousand.
We will buy 5! Leave it for us! It will work only for the poor!
- 5 will be... - Let it be! We will buy it! Do you understand?
Sit down. - No, you...
- Ask her how the child is. - Don't worry.
The worst is over. But the child must stay for 2 days...
We can cover the costs! Your child is fine! The doctor!
Thank him! You saved a life! We can't! Don't mistake me!

Have they both slept here? Look at Surya. He sleeps like you too.
He's always talking about how he wants to be like you when he's older.
- We're making a mistake. - Why?
Let my job end with me. Why them? They shouldn't want this!
They must study well!
Send them to Madras. Let them stay with Shakila and study there.
That's when my influence won't be there.
Scared that your child will be away from you?
How would you survive away from them? You love them so much.
I am not important. They are.
Shall I tell you something? If I die now, I will die happily!
I promise. I will die very happily...
Save this poor woman. My life is in danger! Help! Come!
Who is it? - Ask him to come!
- Enough. - Who is it? - Tell him not to come. He's in danger!
Come in! Neela! Come in!
Everyone's waiting. If you come...
When Neela's ashes are dissolved, no male Reddy should be alive.
Who are you? Who? Who are you?
Surya, look after her.
Keep the ticket carefully.
Everyone says mother died because of you. Is it true?
Tell me! Tell me! Is it true?
Along the streets of the southern city, the one who came like a deer,
Who had hit you?
Oh rising moon do not fade! Do not cry yourself away any more!
The heart cannot bear any more tears!
Along the streets of the southern city, the one who came like a deer,
Who had hit you?
- Sir, my first child. You must name him.
Girl? - Son. - Name him Ganesh!
Don't fight. I'll give you more later.
I did the prayer in Charumathi's name. Send her the offerings.
She's no longer a child. She's a brat. He's always in trouble now.
- Enough. Stop. Hey why are you just watching? - You're getting old.
- Enough stop. The sea is here. See. - Why are you scared father?
- Don't be scared. - Don't stop! - Hold the wheels! Hold it!
- Father are you alright? Are you injured? - Are you hurt?
Thank god my body was strong enough for this.
- Why so much for this small thing? - Run! He can't catch you!
- Is Naicker in? - Wait he'll be here soon.
I knew him well once but lost touch. I need to see him urgently now.
- What is the matter? - Isn't he in? I'll just need 5 minutes with him.
He's in the prayer. Tell me. - Go on. He's Naicker's son.
My only son has finally got a job after 4 years in Dubai.
Everything is ready for him to go overseas tomorrow. - Calm down.
He hit a child while he was driving my car to the passport office.
- What happened to the child? - It died on the spot.
Fearing the people, he left the car there and ran off.
But it wasn't his fault. The child was playing and didn't see the car.
His future is ruined. - What car was it? - Ambassador. - Whose?
- Mine. - Go to the police & complain that you lost your car. Predate it.
- Leave that to me. - Okay. Do you have a driving licence? - Yes.
- Where was this? - Matunga. - Go to the station there and say you did it.
Get money from lyer. I will take care of your house. You will be out soon.
Go on without worrying. Your son will go overseas.
I'm Velu Naicker's son. I will do as promised.
Look at this boy! Just a kid! You solved it the way father would!
Did you hear? They seem better than us. You didn't see it!
I saw it. Surya, don't. Don't come into this.
You want to become an inspector?
He wants to be one like his father. He went for the police selections.
They refused to take him in because he was mentally retarted.
No.
Okay go on.
From now on, you're my personal Inspector.
Ask him to come from tomorrow. Just come and go.
- SP is coming. - Who? Which SP?
- Raghavan. - Why is he here? - I don't know! He's here!
- He's here. Leave it. Anything else? - No. We came for this only.
- I'm Raghavan. - SP. Yes, I know you. From twenty years ago.
Come. That's okay. Come.
I have no search warrant or arrest warrant.
You don't need one. Search out whatever you need.
I am not here as a police officer. I'm here for your help.
Sit down. Sit up there. I prefer this.
I need to talk to you in private.
Go.
Go on.
My child's wedding's next week. But it won't go on. She's hospitalised.
- She's unconcious. - What happened?
I had always taught her to be fearless being a policeman's daughter.
Last night, she went out to buy clothes. She came back like a torn outfit.
4 guys, powerful guys, had...
Why are you here? You should get them in and break their bones!
I found out who they are. But I couldn't break their bones. - Why?
It was the minister's son. If it was anyone else, he'll be in pieces now.
I told the IG. He asked for evidence. None. He asked if I was rich. No.
He said leave it as they were rich and could manipulate everything.
But I can't leave it! Everytime I see her, I can't leave it!
So I decided to leave everything and run to you here!
- I understand your grief. - Not just that... - I too have a daughter.
I'll take care of it. You shouldn't be here long. I'll take care of it.
I'm coming from the hospital. He's alive but merely a vegetable.
- Are you happy? - She saw me. - Not just you but your animal sides!
- An innocent boy... - No, he made a mistake and earned this.
- Who are you to decide? - You don't get it. The officer...
Just tell me one thing. Who do you think you are? God?
Then who are you to decide what is justiciable and punish?
Why did you do that today?
I had promised. - To whom?
Another father like me. - So you can promise to heartlessly kill.
He had made a grave mistake. - Let it be.
Who are you to punish? We have a legal system for this. Why you?
You're educated and have lived well. But we're not like that.
We suffered for food. And before we could bring back money, we died.
Were we ever sure that we would live till night?
So we don't think of the courts and cops.
You need to hit back to survive. We need to take up arms to live.
Would that make everything you do right?
I only do what I feel is right.
Then can I act as I wish to? I feel that Selva was wrong to hit that boy.
I feel that it is right to hit him back!
Leave her! It's our girl! - I'll kill you!
- Where did you learn to hit others? - From us! Leave it.
- Why did you hit me? Why? Tell me. - No, you hit Selva...
You felt it was wrong though I felt it was right!
What you feel is right is felt to be atrocious by the rest of the place!
- I was wrong to hit you. - No, not hitting me. Hitting the rest is wrong.
- What do you want me to do? - Leave it. Leave everything.
- I will die. If I leave it. - Then are you going to remain like this?
- Won't you ever stop?
I will stop. But ask them to stop. - Whom?
Everyone! - Who?
The one who killed a union leader who asked for his rights.
Ask him to stop and I will!
The one who killed an innocent old man and labelled it as sucide!
Ask him to stop and I will!
The one who drove a buldozer through a slum community!
Ask him to stop and I will!
The one who killed your mother at midnight!
Ask him to stop and I will.
Do we do this out of choice? There is no other way.
From the bottom of your heart, isn't what you're doing wrong?
No. Anything that can help others is not wrong.
Is it fair to kill one to help others? - You don't understand.
I don't! I don't wish to know! Leave me! Leave me!
- Ask him to go away! Go away! Please! - I'll take care. It'll be fine.
- Come. - I wish to see Naicker. - Father is not well.
- I need to see him. - Sit down. Sit down.
The SP is here. He wants to see you urgently. Shall I bring him in?
- Aren't you well?
- Do you know anyone named Pandian? - That Salem Pandian...
- He was working for me for some time. - He was arrested.
He will be in court tomorrow to testify against you.
To think you were trying to help me and you got into this.
I, as a policeman, cannot stop this. I don't know how you'll stop this.
I thought I should tell you this. I'll take my leave.
My daughter is fine now.
Call Selva. - He's not here. You asked him to leave town for some time.
I'll take care of this. Don't you trust me?
- How this should be done... - I know. He mustn't come. Or talk.
None of our people will be involved. Outsiders only.
We must have no association with this. I'll take care of it.
- Surya here. Pandian has... - Not on the phone. Tell me in person.
I called you so that you don't worry.
- Who asked you to come? - He didn't say a word in court.
- I'll hang up. Did you call me? - You come.
- I told you to send someone for the money. - Don't worry.
They couldn't get me there. As if they could get me here.
Didn't you change the vehicle?
What is it? At this time? Hello Inspector. No stones today?
What is the matter? How come everyone is here so early now?
SP how come you are here so early?
Did something happen to someone?
I don't understand. Has something happened? Why so quiet?!
I don't understand. What has happened here?
Where is Surya? What happened to him?
He got burnt badly. Don't see it.
Along the streets of the southern city, the one who came like a deer,
Who had hit you?
Oh rising moon, do not fade. Do not cry yourself away anymore.
The heart cannot bear any more tears.
Along the streets of the southern city, the one who came like a deer,
Who had hit you?
I'm going. I'm leaving you and going.
I can't stay here any longer.
First you killed mother. Now brother. If I stay here, I will die.
I have no desire to be your child. I will think of myself as an orphan.
I'm going back to Madras. Don't stop me. Or search for me.
I don't need to know whether you're alive or dead.
Leave me. You have no wife. Or son. Now, forget the daughter too!
Just think you disowned me! Leave me!
The prayer is in Charumathi's name. Take the offerings.
- Shall I search for her? - No. Leave her. I promised not to hinder.
- She might be suffering. - She won't. She's my child. She'll survive.
See who it is. If it is a new officer, tell them to let us end this first.
Tell them I said so. - I'll take care.
- They say we don't have permission for this. - Who must we ask?
We didn't get police permission. - Have we ever asked for that?
I asked. He said the mistakes of the last 30 years must end.
- Who said so? - The new Assistant Commissioner.
These vehicles help the poor. How can we seize them?
I know what else these are used for!
This involves Velu Naicker. It might bring about a problem.
Who pays your salary? The department or them? Do it!
Who do you think we are? Naicker will take your neck!
Yes! We know you do that!
Who? Who laid his hands on Selva?!
They hit him in public and arrested him!
Aren't you ashamed to come tell me this? What were you doing?!
Has anyone ever touched him? Would I ever let them do that?!
- What does he want? Why this arrest? - We don't know.
Why didn't you ask? - He hits all of our men everywhere!
- You're old. Why didn't you ask? - He might throw me in too.
Fear of the uniform! Look! These are their scars! Feel these!
- Where is that policeman's house? - Don't. Why must you go there?
Who's inside? Selva! Who knows his house? Who?!
- Don't you know or are you scared? - I know.
I didn't see any other way to dissolve the sin that I was born with.
I married an officer so that at least my child won't have the sins.
- Does he know who you... - No. He believes I am an orphan. So do I.
- Your child? Is it a son? - Leave him. Don't let him know you exist?
Go. Please.
- He's not here. - Where is he? - I don't know.
I don't know!
Where is he? - Not here. - Where? - I don't know!
Tell me. Where is he hiding?
I don't know.
The police are coming! Leave! Leave! The police are coming!
You still can't arrest him?
Everyone is on his side. Today, a lady burnt herself to save him.
In front of me. I don't understand why they respect him so much.
Maybe someone else is informing them ahead of time of your moves.
- I don't understand. - Velu Naicker has 2 children. Do you know?
They died in some petrol bunk accident.
The son died. But the daughter lived. He sent them to Madras.
Most people don't know that he has a daughter. - The relevance?
Why did you come here? We'll take care. Please leave.
- What is this? - I didn't say a word. I don't know how I was brave.
Put him to bed. - Are you well? - I am fine.
I can die. It's an honour to die for you.
- Look here. - She's lost conciousness. She doesn't talk at all.
She won't live past the night. The doctor said that she won't live.
How can you be like this?
Enough!
Where is the phone? - It's here.
- Call the AC. - What are you going to do?
I am going to call him. - It will make their sacrifices meaningless!
All that I've done will be meaningless.
I always felt it fine to do anything to make sure it helps others.
Now for one old man, so many people, kids... it's not right!
Father is it you? Is it you?
- I'm Velu here. Is the AC in? - Father, are you alright?
He was apparently looking for me. Tomorrow, is my Neela's...
Tomorrow is your mother's anniversary. Ask him to get me then.
- I won't. - Listen to me. - Do you know what they would do to you?
- I know. Tell him. - I can't!
Who? Who was on the phone? Who were you talking to?
My father. - Say Velu Naicker. Why? What does he want?
Does he want to know when the next raid is? Or where to hide?!
He asked me to bring you. He told me where he would be tomorrow.
He told you to come there and arrest him.
You need to testify against Velu Naicker. - He named my son. I won't.
You knew him for a long time. You need to testify against him.
You must come and testify for us.
You don't need to be scared. We'll protect you.
Don't you know about him? - Yes, that is why I won't testify.
Your husband? Do you know who killed him? Do you know?
Velu Naicker. - I know. - Yet you won't testify? - No.
Why? - He gave my son a life and made him a human being.
Please sit down.
Many have told me you don't refuse. I need your help.
I am an ordinary man in jail. You're an officer. How can I help?
I thought you were a cheap man and I was desparate to put you in jail.
But when I see those who respect you as their life, I feel I am wrong.
There's one differance between me and you and what we do.
I do it wearing a uniform and you don't.
I see that and I need your help. - You're educated and speak well.
I'm uneducated. I will do what I can. Tell me what it is.
The verdict is out tomorrow. But the streets aren't calm.
If we go to stop, unnecessary lives are being lost.
You must help us to make sure court runs smoothly tomorrow.
- I... - I believe you can do it if you wish to.
The verdict may be against you. It may even be death.
I should have died at 10. You won't have trouble tomorrow. Go on.
I need another favour. You must bless your grandson tomorrow.
Why are they keeping you in jail?
Did you do some wrong?
Are you a good person or a bad person?
Tell me. Are you a good person or a bad person?
I don't know.
What is your name? - Velu. Shakthi Velu.
Do you know my name? - No I don't.
I have your name too. Shakthi Vel.
You don't worry. Nothing will happen to you.
You go on. Nothing will happen. We're here for you!
There wasn't enough evidence! They can't do anything to him!
Along the streets of the southern city, the one who came like a deer,
Who had hit you?
