'Pappireddipatti Dharmapuri'
'Broom...new broom'
'New broom for sale'
'Let us keep our surroundings clean'
(voices of children repeating)
'Let us plant trees and protect our land'
'This is Breaking News from Puthiya Thalaimurai'
'Good morning, Mr President'
Good morning...good morning
We haven't received an invitation for this rocket function
Did you find out why, Isai?
'I did check with them'
'Only the Prime minister and Defence minister will be invited'
'They say we won't be invited, sir'
Who said so?
But the Govt order doesn't specify
Wrong, Isai
My eyes are like Gandhi and Bhagat Singh
If I shut the 'ahimsa' eye and open the 'rebel' eye, our nation can't take it
Listen to this
To implement Article 356, by which President's rule will be imposed in Tamil Nadu
How long since we sent the file from our Pappireddi 'bhavan'?
Why hasn't it been sanctioned till this morning?
'Not yet passed in the Parliament, sir'
How will it get sanctioned?
Using tax payers' money...
...if politicians use free 'pass' and travel in 1st class
...how will it get sanctioned?
Sweet talk, flattery, fights within the political party
Walk out
Canteen
I'll let loose Bhagat Singh, mind you!
Where's Ponoonjal? Set up a conference call
Where are you Ponoonjal?
'Outside the court, President'
'Minister stealing electricity for his brother-in law's wedding'
'1st case on the list today'
'Anyhow that bloody thief won't show up'
'I'll mark attendance and come to the Collector's office'
'Didn't you want to meet the new Collector regarding the decision of the lamb Usain Bolt?'
That's right
I'm also ready now
On the way don't stop public transport...
...and inconvenience the public!
That's Govt terrorism
Inform Control room, Ponoonjal
'I will do so'
I'll go to Chekkarapatti...
...pick up Usain Bolt and come straight to the Collector's office
Isai, you be there too
'Sure, sir'
I'll take leave, my dear
I am meeting Usain Bolt now
I'll see Akila in the afternoon at General Hospital
Now that I have come to power...
...she'll get justice, 'pattu'
And you will too, my precious
I'll make you happy as soon as I can
Okay...?
I'll leave now I'll be back soon
Otherwise I'll send Isai here, okay?
My precious, can I play a song for you?
"My song will see the light of day"
"My sorrow will be buried today"
(song from 'Eera Vizhi Kaaviyangal')
Mad bloody mongrel...shoo!
Can the dog in the Commissioner's house bark at the President?
You have the Govt on your side
Castrate the damn dog
"Where did you see, my dear this poor boy so sincere?"
"Where did you see, my dear this social service volunteer?"
"Next to a chariot in the southern land like a king he was waving his hand"
"Find out if he is coming or not, my lady For he isn't the only fish in the sea"
"Is he willing or not, ask him Or we'll find another to suit our whim"
"Don't you treat me like a door mat Take back the wedding thread, you bigot"
Move 6 paces
Attention Mr President
(playing ludo)
'Haven't I prohibited this poison?'
I sent a petition long ago
Didn't the officer inform you?
'Hit...hit a sixer'
President sir
I wasn't given a shop in the Govt market or in a fancy mall
Even when I told your name I was ignored
Ambani's store, right?
Will note it down
'Fantastic! Brilliant!!'
"A hard-core bachelor is he Also he will not accept a dowry"
"A die-hard bachelor is he Neither will he accept any dowry"
I'll write it down
I'll make a note of every single person's actions
"The morning star in the sky, behold! Look at the onion bolting bold"
"The morning star flashes in the sky Onion flowers once in a while"
"If this jobless nitwit in a corner has moustache or not, how does it matter?"
'Happy birthday Magadheera of Dharmapuri'
"Where did you see, my dear? This boy from nowhere now here"
"Next to a chariot in the southern land like a king he was waving his hand"
- Welcome, sir - Greetings
- How is Usain Bolt? - Pus is still oozing out
He was screaming all night
- Bring him here - Sure
Arun, when are you going for National selection?
Next month In Pune, sir
Give your best shot and get in with merit
If they create any politics after that, let me know
I'll give the President's letter, okay?
Poor thing!
Is it hurting really bad?
You will be fine
I'm here, right?
Ride pillion with me
President has come to meet you, sir
What do you mean?
That madcap Mannar Mannan is here
I'm already hassled Why give me more headache?
Who is that numskull?
He bugged me on my very 1st day about political dos and don'ts
Send him away saying I've gone for a meeting
Can't get rid of him that easily, sir
Do you know how he will retaliate?
Just a minute, sir
'India 'Good Govt' 2020'
'For students of all castes, classrooms'
'For all Indians clean bathrooms'
Functioning at a turtle's slow pace
Employees in the Collector's office
'Least excuse they will stage a riot'
'Turtle stalk' demonstration
'We will revolt by sending turtles inside the Collector's office'
Our Common man's uncommon President will carry out the 'Turtle Stalk'
'Our friends in need who came to alleviate poverty and penury'
'Long live the turtles in our pond'
'An office with a turtle will prosper'
'An office where bribes rule will shatter'
That's called 'Death and departure'
'Next time we will send Mock turtle, o' Lord!'
'Folks, do you know what a big disgrace this is?'
'It's the 'spitting at that bear' moment!'
They have come here with Usain Bolt now
- Usain Bolt...? - Yes, sir
He's gone viral on Facebook
That's him, sir
'A sand truck hit a goat on the road, sir'
'Belongs to a big shot in our area'
'These vigilante boys got hold of the goat and blew the issue out of proportion'
Because it was posted on Facebook...
...the minister's representatives decided to pay the owner of the goat a compensation
But these boys demanded a huge amount as compensation
They are hell bent on stopping trucks from loading sand illegally
Ponoonjal who is with him...
...has a suitcase filled with cases!
He'll file a case for anything and everything
He is the one who filed this goat case too
Sir, this girl Isai...
...is the one who posts everything on Fb
It's getting late for the function
- Leave now - Okay, sir
Every town has one such idealistic idiot
Self proclaimed vigilantes like him should be put behind bars
It has all been done and dusted, sir
They can bear the worst beating ever!
Listen, I'm going up to Morappur to give blenders and grinders as freebies
Whatever it is I'll see you tomorrow
But President has banned all free schemes
File has been submitted but the case is pending
If you give freebies and prevent people from thinking independently...
...then how will India become a Super power in 2020?
You buy me stuff with my money and you call it freebie?
That isn't complimentary
You are forcing a burden on my back called 'loan'
First salute our President
The norm is for Govt employees to approach the President
But I'm meeting you face to face only to effect a change for the better
Because President is India's supervisor
I take so much trouble and no pep or push from you
Judgment hasn't been passed in Usain Bolt's case as yet
It's been a week since we sent you the file from Pappireddi 'bhavan'
Still he hasn't been compensated
Even now they steal sand from our river banks
Trucks keep loading sand and continue to deliver
They've turned our village into a graveyard by (sc)raping our earth
Look at this fluoride water
Go ahead and show them
President, flash your teeth at them
Such a pest!
Okay, I'll move the files You first leave this place
Sir, you don't have to help the President
Act as if you're helping him That's good enough
Otherwise our entire clan will be reduced to this state
Condemn sand mining severely
First of all, pass an order to seize the sand truck at once
I give you time till 3:00 p.m
Otherwise a major protest will be staged this evening with the President leading it
You should be taking care of law and order, Collector sir
First leave this place
Collector sir, hold this
Yov! What are you doing?
- Hold it, sir - What's wrong with you?
What's all this?
Go...go...clear out
What about the function, sir?
First chase him away We can go later
- Where are we going? - To General Hospital, sir
'Jesus will do everything'
He'll shepherd you
Praise be to the Almighty!
Jesus will guide you every step of the way
- He will save you from all sickness - Praise the Lord!
Jesus will show you the path to take
The Lord will protect you from disease and distress
Praise the Lord!
(Prayer)
How will Jesus protect?
How will Jesus save the man in the gutters?
Last month in this same hospital...
...12 children died due to lack of nutrition
2 pregnant women died because of wrong anesthesia
Neither Jesus nor Goddess Shakthi came to their aid!
Only the Govt should protect the people
Why is everything stuck here?
What happened to all the files we sent from Pappireddi 'bhavan'?
Why is the chief doctor still not here?
Don't raise your voice Please leave now
Chief doctor hasn't come yet
He must be in his own clinic in a dirty alley
He must have got hold of some nitwit and carrying out 101 tests on him
It's too much torture I'll complain to the police
Will you complain?
Will you file a complaint against the President who came on his rounds?
Mannan, please stay calm I'll explain to him
I'll take care You carry on, doctor
No, sister
I'll inform them to clean it right away
We'll take the patient to the ward
You please come along
You want to meet Akila, right?
Okay, come with me
She is staring blankly without moving
I'm scared to just look at her!
I told you, nothing can be done here
There's a blood clot in her brain
We don't have the facility Go to a private hospital like Apollo
How can you even say this? What is the Govt there for?
Shall we then vote for Apollo's staff?
Whom will these poor people turn to?
Sir, I just stated a fact
What, sir?
Sir, I have no money
We got only 1/2 the money though it was meant as compensation
Don't know how even that money got spent!
- Name...? - Valavan
- Initial...? - R
'I've written a check for 500000'
'Please collect it from the President's fixed deposit'
Akila will wake up Please take it
I've spoken to the press and media
If we publish an article on Akila, we might get financial help
They have promised to come sometime this week
Most important news, sir
Case is coming up for final hearing on the 26th
You should speak the truth without feeling scared
Sure, sir
Selvaraj is waiting in the office of the Superintendent of Police
I'll shoot you if you enter Turn back and keep going
You are the one misusing law and order, mind you!
You'll end up a corpse, mental!
You are old-
Don't...this is a big offense
- I'm warning you - Move...move aside
Welcome Mr President
'Left hand salute, huh?'
I salute with my right hand to all the higher officials
Then what's the difference between them and the President?
That's why I used my left hand
I want to meet your boss
Why should I prevent you?
Then you'll cut my allowance Please come in
Come in You can sit here
Sit down Wait here
I'll fetch sir Take your seat
Until he comes where do we sit?
You wait here No rush at all
- I'll bring him right away - Why are you locking us in?
Didn't I tell you? He has shown his true colors!
- Shall I call Evidence Kadhir? - Wait...wait
Maybe is he a stooge of the Prime Minister?
Please come, sir
They are in here
Does the king of the common man need a fan?
Superintendent of Police
I know all about you
The day you became the President
Who swore you into office
Which side you'll face when you pee
I know every nitty gritty detail
I even know about you wishing the man crapping early in the morning!
Good Govt India 2020
For students of all castes, classrooms
For all Indians clean bathrooms
This is our President's dream scheme
Do not demean our struggle
Suitcase Ponoonjal
If I lift you and make you dangle from the ceiling...
...all my problems will be solved
What do you mean?
It's been a week since we sent you the file from Pappireddi 'bhavan'
And you still haven't arrested the men who hit Usain Bolt!
We've already given you the truck number, owner's cell number, driver's cell number
What action have you taken?
Such a long journey to get justice for a mere goat?
That party was willing to pay compensation
Wrong...wrong Don't talk so flippantly
All lives in this country are equal The best of men or beast
I'll bring the military into this
Only because I'm also a Tamilian...
...I'm being patient as I don't want to humiliate the Tamil Nadu police force
But your behavior is such a disgrace
It's ridiculed in whatsApp
They kept his car in the Town police station charging him with drunken driving
After 4 days when they returned the vehicle, 4 tyres were missing!
Greetings, sir
Because they said 4 tyres...
...please don't assume it's a car
It's a 3 wheeler tempo 3 tyres and a spare tyre
Unable to go for work
They've removed even the horn
I begged them to give this one
In this station at least, have you seized an Audi or BMW?
We have never set eyes on such cars in our life
We are simple folks
Take action on circulars already passed
Return the belongings to the respective owners
Instead, if you listen to the Prime Minister...
...and not pay heed to the President's wishes
...you'll face severe consequences!
Oho! You need respect?
After the town sleeps...
...we will carry him to Vytla hills
And render military honor to your esteemed President
Let them be inside until I give orders
Let's go
'They do this once every month'
SP down down! President long live!!
SP down down President long live...!
Isai, how has the response been for the 2 hours lock-up at SP's office?
- Check in FB and let me know - Okay, sir
Then I have my pension amount
Check if the interest is credited already
No harm in that
Dogerpillar, try this
Asleep, huh?
Check what has happened to that sand truck case
Has any action been taken against that company?
I'll call and find out
No action has been taken until now
At 4:00 p.m from Gandhi statue
No...!
Post it in FB that our protest will begin from Bhagat Singh's statue
There is no statue of Bhagat Singh, President
"What is this, sir?"
"Sir, is this fair?"
'Handcuff jumps' to protest against police union
"Sir, what is this law you follow?"
"Sir, why are your schemes so shallow?"
"No one to question your action So you revel in corruption"
"1.32 billion people live here Hardly a handful of leaders sincere"
"In buying votes you are the leader In bribery you are a fine dealer"
"Buying votes is your forte You wheel and deal away"
Police atrocity Down! Down!
"The ones who once ruled are illiterate One who leads now is the Corporate"
"Ministers sell our nation without any qualm Salute, extend to them a warm welcome"
"Worms in Govt grocery Pipe dream of a developed country"
"Our country is heading for disaster Doomsday is just round the corner"
"No freedom of speech however Black money in many a coffer"
"In the parliament, people chosen a village chief dime a dozen"
"Fancy cars in the cities zoom"
"Farmer hangs himself in gloom"
"Loan with exorbitant interest The poor are drowned in distress"
"What is this law you follow?"
"Why are your schemes so shallow?"
"Sir, do you really care?"
'Protest against sexual abuse'
"Phone in hand glittery Get TV as a freebie"
"Is there any toilet built specifically for people on the road to crap or pee?"
"Does nature forget to offer plenty? Does she hide or hoard her bounty?"
"To line your pocket at every opportunity Is the Govt an accessory?"
"No drinking water found"
"Pollution in the air all around"
Let the floods wash away those who gawk in pleasure
"With your Govt wine shops selling booze on men's necks you're tightening the noose"
"What is this law you follow?"
"Why are your schemes so shallow?"
"No one to question your action So you rejoice in your bribing option"
"1.32 billion people live here Hardly a handful of leaders sincere"
"In buying votes you are the leader In bribery you are a fine dealer"
"Buying votes is your forte You wheel and deal away"
'Pikkampatti' Junk of a fellow!
Who is it?
I'll rip you apart
Try tearing it
As if in the hot sun you need this silly coat
Do you know whom you are opposing?
Are you encouraging inter-caste marriage?
Madcap! If I see you roaming around with that canopy over your head
You'll send a file from 'Pappireddi-bhavan', huh?
E post
- Please send this - Sure I will, you carry on
In this case registered under Motor Vehicles Act, section 166...
...we can't have 2 laws 1 for a person and other for a goat!
In addition, what this dumb animal had to go through should not happen...
...to any other living being!
This is an example the Honorable court would like to share with the entire world
Since the truck was driven at break neck speed
...and the goat jumped at the last minute
...the iron rod pierced the goat and it escaped with 1 injured leg
Otherwise it would have got killed!
So if you take a closer look at the goat's disability...
...the petitioner of this case
...deserves to receive an indemnity of Rs 200000
This is the final verdict from this Court of Justice
'Since this accident happened because of an illegal sand mining truck...'
'...this Court regards this case with utmost anger and anguish'
'At the same time, while condemning illegal loading of sand...'
'...the Court requests the defendant to file a separate case'
'And to submit all the necessary documents to the court'
'This court is granting permission to the District Superintendent of Police'
'Great response for Usain Bolt's verdict'
'Dharmapuri's Niyaz Ahmed is all praise for our President and has shared it on FB'
'That status has gone viral'
Will the President be a judge in a standup comedy show 'Who will ace it?' season 6?
Yuva Krishna
Yuva Krishna, Adhisha
Shashank Ravi, Charu Nivedita
…are making fun of you, sir
Shall we ban their email IDs?
That's wrong, Isai
We shouldn't interfere in freedom of speech
Internet is people's field today
I respect democracy
Underhand dealings, dubious plans are being hatched in Akila's case
I am sure the verdict will go against us!
Isai, post it on Facebook
Tomor-
No, day after tomorrow at 3:00 p.m
...few moments with snakes full of venom!
President's struggle
- President, don't - Let us not do this
- Just post it - No need, sir
President, please don't do it
I will not change my mind
- Post it - Sir...?
No need, President Please listen to us
Believe it or not!
Our President will be cooped up in a glass cage along with snakes
They are all poisonous snakes
In another half hour you can watch a Live telecast from the venue
This has created a stir here
Will the snakes bite him?
Will our President survive this ordeal?
Please watch our 'Live' telecast from AMN Channel, stay tuned
Such a humbug he is
Hello, sir
Hey police!
Why is that mad fellow now fist-fighting with snakes?
Ignore him, sir
Nutcase! Serves him right Let him die from snake bite
Won't one of the snakes kill him?
'Is the crack fellow dying quietly?'
'This is a blatant propaganda he is building up for himself'
These days even if someone washes his bum in an alley, media covers it Live, sir!
That will be discussed and an uproar in protest
You lock him up and administer electric shock
Then pack him off to some mental hospital in Kerala
'Sure, sir'
'Few moments with snakes venomous'
'Our recurrent pleas falling on deaf ears'
'Not valuing his life...'
'...for the sake of his land and people'
'...our people's President-'
When will he get into the case?
Be patient
Can't you see he's getting ready?
Are they all poisonous snakes inside the case?
Put your hand in You'll know!
Ripping apart the mask of authority
In order to save baby Akila's life
- Lift him - Police...!
Police anarchy Down! Down!
Let's save our People's President
You dare to assault the President who is 'on duty'
I will destroy any power that opposes my protest for my people
(loud slogans)
How dare you throw my cap!
Police riot Down! Down
Come inside
Hold him
- Acting over smart? - Do not beat me
Why laid hands on People's President?
Who had the audacity to beat him up?
No one to defend me for 20 years So you beat me up black and blue
Now the President is in the same position
How dare you lay your hands on him?
Take your hands off! I'm giving respect to your age
Don't, sir We'll meet him in court
I won't spare him I'll rip him apart
You had better take him Or things will turn ugly
Get up, President Come
Won't you get caught some day?
I'll show you my power then
Look how he has thrashed you
- Hey! - Get lost!
'Take him away'
Just you wait I'll get you suspended!
You'll see the power I wield
Greetings to the general public
There's a rumor on whatsApp and FB claiming our President is no more
Please do not believe this baseless rumor
Our President, despite severe onslaught of violence by the Police force...
...is in good health
Mentally strong and physically fit standing here right in front of you
Due to their unconditional love for our President...
...we request the public not to resort to any act of violence
The Govt which provides 2-tier security for even liquor barons and murderers...
...is unwilling to provide even a PSO, Personal Security Officer for our President
The case Ponoonjal filed to question this has been rejected by the Court
That's why our President is now staging this '24 hour-Body Music' protest
If the Police force is assaulting the President, then who is behind this?
Do you remember Akila who fell into a well and has been hospitalized?
Owner of that land runs 4 schools
When they built a new school...
...they dug a very deep well
Akila fell into it
Activist Henry has filed a case against him
I've also filed a case
The case is getting delayed
When our President fought for transparency...
...he was attacked
Please make a note of this
But there's domestic and international conspiracy
There are talks that many influential people are involved
Delhi sir...Delhi sir...!
God men in Delhi are also involved
Why this sudden conspiracy?
The Chinese did not approve of me banning their noodles
Americans didn't like the fact I banned cool drinks
Ministers didn't like me dissuading them from worshipping the helicopter
When I objected to the use of air cooler in a fast lasting 1/2 a day...
…ban on hierarchy in politics Ban on party switching
Ban on building colleges Wealth accumulation constraint
Ban against caste party convention Ban against God men and seers
Even if there are so many reasons behind this assault...
...no one can stop our President's protest
Why...?
In a country where jewelers protest why can't a President do the same?
I'll unleash Bhagat Singh, mind you!
Let's say 2 people come to meet you
Film star Nayanthara and Obama Whom would you meet?
Isai, note down which newspaper he's from
Must ban that paper first!
Boss, what is 'Body Music'? Please show us
Haven't you heard of 'Body Music'?
This is the President's body
The sound you hear from here will tear people's ears in Delhi
This is the music of our nation's poverty
This is our nation's birthright
'Sir, regarding your wife's case?'
'Has she come?'
'Okay, we'll leave now'
Sir, I believe Khushboo has come to Pennagaram
Let's discuss it in detail tonight over phone and publish it tomorrow
Verdict in Akila's case in 2 weeks
Sir, please share it with me
- Which newspaper are you from? - Timepass!
'There was no proper evidence against the school correspondent Mr Thangadurai...'
'...to levy a fine or be punished'
'It has already proved he is running 4 schools successfully'
'And with proper documents and permission he has dug a well in his campus'
'Valavan and his wife Rasamani were construction workers residing there'
'Their 4 year old daughter Akila…'
'...crossed the fence and fell into the well'
'...suffering grave injury'
'This was due to sheer carelessness of the parents'
'How can the owner be responsible?'
'The court accepts this argument'
President, we can go to the Supreme Court
Where is Akila?
Because she was lying in the dark for so long...
...she was so petrified she is unable to talk now
She screams in fright looking at us
It's okay, sir
An active child is now in this condition
Every doctor is saying something or the other
We don't even have money
This is what you gave
No bank is accepting it
Why?
Is there no money in the President's relief fund?
What happened to the fund?
Has the parliament not sanctioned even that?
Wrong
Ponoonjal, it's totally wrong
It's okay, sir I will take leave
- Come home - Okay, sir
'Nothing is on the right track, darling'
In Akila's case the correspondent was proclaimed innocent and released
He went
Got into the car, switched on the air-conditioner and zoomed away
Akila is not able to talk
Her father is in tears
The bank is not accepting my check, sweetheart
I obey and respect our legal system
I was waiting for the court's verdict
If it did not work I must show my authority
Now that I'm in power why should I get scared?
So I have arrived at a conclusion
From this day onwards...
...I will enforce military rule for a month in our country
Based on that the President will have all the powers
In this time frame...
...his decisions will be final
Yours truly, Mannar Mannan
President
I will make you happy as soon as I can
If the Supreme court's decision is wrong...
...I will manage everything
Hey! What
From today onwards for a month I've authorized military rule in our nation
Lunatic! Get lost
No one should question me
Don't...let me go
Don't harm me
Why are you scared?
This is the punishment meted out by the Govt
Accept it
Poor Akila!
They construct countless buildings
Absorb all the water
Kill all the childr-
'Come soon'
He's a lunatic
Catch him
Biryani for 'Bakrid' to Balaraman
'Deepavali' sweets for Muneer Basha
This is our culture and tradition
If anyone tries to change our land into a poisonous river...
...one slash we will kill him
Youngsters will extend to the old people…
…a feeling of security
Protection should be given
This is secularism
Religious tolerance
Caste is getting entwined like a python
Religion is lifting its head like a 5 headed snake
Shouldn't we stop this?
We shall overcome prejudices together
Wishing all my Islam brothers and sisters my Iftar wishes
Thank you
Our turn next
Can we go to the stage?
'Peace be upon you'
You should only give the Thanks giving speech
'And upon you'
Next
...the district councilor of MMK party Mr Kalaiselvan will address the gathering
My dear kith and kin
Allah and Lord Shiva are one and the same
Those who don't realize this are in a state of 'Ignorance is bliss'
Islam's crescent moon adorns Lord Shiva's head
How?
Fine, let's think of it in this manner
The moon seen on Shiva's head is also seen on the Islamic flag
How?
I am very sure
Actually they are our ancestors
If anyone opposes our unity...
...my brothers will give them hell
Friends and family
My kindred souls
Wishing all the Islam brothers and sisters 'Happy Iftar'
I will take leave, thank you
You should give the Thanks giving speech
To conclude, District secretary of TKMK party, Mr Alponse Peter...
...will now give the Thanks giving speech
They are not allowing us to talk
It is a conspiracy
Political sabotage
We must let Bhagat Singh out
I offer my warm greetings to the Youth club-
Hold on for a minute
Come to the police station, sir
Why?
Inspector general has come to meet you
He wants to talk to you about Article 365
He asked us to fetch you immediately
Let us go
Is it an emergency?
I will finish this speech and-
You can do so on Independence Day
Now come with us
Fine, let's go
'Peace be upon you'
'And upon you'
Repeat it
It's my order
'Peace be upon you'
Let's go now
Go
Isai, follow us
Ponoonjal will be in the court
- Inform him - Okay, sir
What happened?
He has stabbed the correspondent
Lunatic!
'Taluk police remand'
Go in
What is your name?
Mannar Mannan
Do you know what case you have been arrested for?
I was arrested for joining the 'Iftar' feast This is a political conspiracy
I won't agree to this one bit
Because India-
Because India is known for its religious tolerance
That is a given
You are all my people
Why are you interrogating me?
What is this, inspector?
Why is he blabbering?
He is a little different
Different in the sense...?
You have been accused of attempted murder
You have tried to stab the correspondent Mr Thangadurai
What do you have to say?
Haven't you received my order?
I have enforced military rule for a month in India
Only the President is responsible for everything
There is no law, justice or interrogation
Come down
Are the Prime minister's men confusing you?
Inspector, looks like you have confused him completely
He is repeating the same dialog, Your Honor
Why are all your cases similar?
What is your zodiac sign?
Aquarius
No wonder people think you are their water-giver!
But according to the First Information Report...
...this is a premeditated attempt to murder, in sound mind
Okay, we will remand him to custody for 15 days
Give a notice to the police and Public prosecutor
Thank you, Your Honor
Inspector
The accused is talking in a disturbed manner
Looks like he is mentally affected
He is taking about the President and attacking the political sphere
So inquire properly and submit a report
Mannar Mannan case history
Okay, take a seat
His real name is Mannar Mannan
He discontinued undergrad in History
He was working in a water company near Dharmapuri by-pass road
His wife's name is Mallika, sir
The most important thing about him
He had filed a petition in the High court to permit euthanasia for his wife
It was rejected
Now he has appealed to the Supreme Court
It's pending, sir
'Actually he was normal'
'Only past 2 years he has lost it'
Go there
What is this?
It's a rejected piece
My sister has come from Rose garden
She will drink only this till we get her married
That's why I'm taking this home
Your bride was fixed in Rose garden, right?
What happened?
From the day he saw her he is like a chameleon that's taken a puff
But the girl has not agreed
She said she will tell her sister this evening
Instead she can call you
If they dilly-dally it's a hint
Apply powder on your face and stand in Pappireddipatti bus stop for 4 days
You will find a bride on the next auspicious day
You are a rural beau!
- Hey boy - Tell me, brother
Who brought Emergency in India?
Most common answer is Indira Gandhi
Fakhruddin Ali Ahmed
President
Only he has the right to sign the papers
How many know this?
I was working in Mugal mahal as a security guard
Kalaignar, MGR , Nedunchezhiyan, Anbazhagan had sent telegrams
They spoke making trunk calls
Nothing moved
Like a statue guarding our village limit I was a witness for everything
Your 'history' sounds interesting
Why don't you quit drinking?
Keep quiet
Hey! Switch off the lights
Brainless fellow!
You've come where girls shelter for the night
And you switch on the light!
Watch your step
There are so many pits and potholes
Welcome
Hello, brother-in-law
Did you eat dinner?
I did
Did you give them coffee?
Yes, I did
Then...how is your work going on?
Not bad
Wait, I will be back
Okay
That girl rejected you
She is working in my husband's office
Her house is near by
She does not have any manners
She called, said no abruptly and disconnected
She looks like a black rat
And she had the gall to reject you
I know a girl in the cutting section
She is very reserved by nature
Shall I talk to her father?
'Our rivers, lakes and ponds have been taken over forcibly'
'...by business crocodiles Concrete jungles everywhere'
'Govt and authority act as broker and laborer'
Corporate politics has reduced us to slavery by buying and selling water
People have to be united in their struggle
Only people can bring about people's rule
We should only protect ourselves
Let's get together Earlier the better
People have to fight for people's rule
People have to support one another
Get on to my bike
It's getting late for the public meeting
The lorry will leave without us
Everyone will say he is mad
But he is the only one who has clarity in our village, my boy
Heard what he said?
'Only people can bring about people's rule'
I was standing as a security guard in Mugal palace
But I should have by rights been seated inside
They will not allow me to sit
If I had sat, I would have changed so many laws
I wasn't able to bear all this So I started to drink
My gray cells are having withdrawal symptom now
Only if I drink will my trembling stop
This is an arena, lad
It's getting late What are you doing?
Brother Selvaraj
Get in
Climb in
Wait, I'm coming
Come fast
Go in
Get in
Move inside
Close the door
Start the vehicle
Go...go
Move over
How many days do you think all this will work out?
If all the 3 forces come together...
...not a single soul can conduct any meetings
You can't assemble people using money power
Single order
Single bomb
First ask them to do that!
What?
Ignore him
It's okay if a bomb doesn't explode but you don't expel your mini-bombs!
Mahesh, come
'Don't push'
(humming a film song)
'Rose garden', I heard you rejected the groom
Why?
She said she wasn't interested Then why ask for reasons?
Why? We should know
If you ask the President about his electricity bill
...he has to reply
There is such a law
Tell us the reason
Wonky head That's why I refused
Boy, apply powder and stand in Palakodu bus stop for 4 days
You will get someone way better than this one
You are a rural beau!
Okay, brother
Go
Our leader will be here in another few minutes
Hey! Stop...stop
Alcohol should be banned in the whole of Tamil Nadu
Get down
Everyone should stay here until the leader finishes
Don't loiter around
'Biryani' will be distributed only after the meeting
You'll be given your liquor now
1 quarter per head
Listen carefully
Veluswami 'anna' will talk
You should clap non stop
Grandma, you know to take 'arati', the welcome ritual?
Hey, get the liquor bottles down
They will give you Don't be in a rush
Follow the queue
Don't rush
Wait
Only one per head
Get the liquor and come
Don't push
Wait
Form a line
Water company 'anna'?
You did not go?
No
Not accustomed to this
Not used to buying in this manner
Let them settle down
Where is your friend?
She has gone to get the liquor bottle
Oh! She drinks?
No, she has gone to get it for her father
'Take off your hand'
Hey boy! Where are you going?
What are you doing? Wait...wait
Hello
(loud voices)
Go, I will get it for you
No need
I'm quite capable of getting it myself
Don't push
Move aside
Don't grab
(loud voices overlapping)
He has got it
Is it the second time?
The liquor is over
Vacate the place
Wait
For me
It's for the military
Keep a bottle aside
It's over
'Leave the place and run away'
'Or join our party'
'Leader is very magnanimous'
'He will forgive and accept you'
If they don't give we must help ourselves
That's power
Look! This is height of perseverance!
Here, go and give it to your father
Let him drink and die
Hold it
My father isn't an alcoholic
He drinks to clear the phlegm in his chest
True, her father drinks to clear his chest
My husband drinks for me to beat my chest and lament!
Let's go
My husband will bring the roof down
Hey boy
You saw me struggle to get just 1 quarter
But you never thought of getting 1 for me
Don't hold my hand
Your 'rose' petal, huh?
Did you get the 'biryani' packet?
Bloody scoundrels!
They are refusing to even give water packets
Hold this
If they don't give we must help ourselves
That's power
'Confirmed, he will get it for you'
Why do you disgrace yourself by going on all fours for this?
Only if I drink I can see my Soundaram
My beloved Soundaram
Just like the Goddess Annapoorani seated in the inner sanctuary
'Like goddess Shakthi I can see her everywhere'
'Nothing in this world compares to a woman's love'
'Nothing at all'
Brother, move
What, boy?
Move
Where are you going?
Where are you taking the bike?
"Love you...love you, love you...Jasmine"
"My perfumed Jasmine"
"Miss you...miss you, miss you, jasmine"
"My scented jasmine"
"My fragrant jasmine!"
Rose garden, get down
"My dear flower In a pink churidhar"
"Waiting in the bus stop always"
"Followed you for many days"
"Don't ridicule me as a clown funny"
"On your neck are white patches Your feet with cracks and scratches"
Why are you following me?
Don't come up to the rose garden
You'll make life hard for me
Go
"You don't wash your face daily Why kill me with your beauty?"
"Your buck teeth so pretty ruins my sleep, dearie"
"In my phone I stored with glee your name as 'wifey' you see"
"I tried real hard to get your 'okay' nod"
"As 'husband' in your phone My name I wanted you to own"
"My energy depleted when it got deleted"
"Love you...love you, love you...Jasmine"
"My perfumed Jasmine"
Alankottai, get down
"Miss you...miss you, miss you, jasmine"
"My scented jasmine"
"My fragrant jasmine!"
Didn't I tell you the other day?
Why do you keep following me?
You asked me not to follow you up to rose garden, right?
I got down at Alankottai
Come, Mahesh
She already told you
Then why are you disturbing her?
Ask her to reconsider it
He will celebrate his love and your daughter
"Love you...love you, love you...Jasmine"
"My perfumed Jasmine"
"Miss you...miss you, miss you, jasmine"
"My scented jasmine"
"My fragrant jasmine!"
"Like oil massage at Hogenakkal you rejuvenate me with your eyes, girl"
"My sister's miracle daughter, jasmine You refuse to become mine"
"Your smile is so precious You are my lucky mascot auspicious"
"You're a fresh grinding stone Give me a favorable reply soon"
"If you say 'yes', I request 100 more wishes, dearest"
"In the flex banner at our wedding we posed together, my darling"
"A color video we shot amazing"
"On our wedding night you came in Looked at me with shyness overflowing"
"That dream went a-dissolving"
"In the flex banner at our wedding we posed together, my darling"
"A color video we shot amazing"
"On our wedding night you came in Looked at me with shyness overflowing"
"That dream went a-dissolving"
See fast
He is missing
Look around
Brown shirt
He is peeping from there
Yes
Disconnect now
Hello
You...?
I swear I never expected you to come
Can I see the house?
Careful
What are your qualifications?
BA History
Attended college for 2 years
Then started working in the water company
Is it enough to apply powder and come and 'see' the bride-to-be
If a girl should come and live here...
...don't you know she needs basic amenities?
Television
It has 50 channels
Every night new movies will be telecast in the local cable
Blender, fan, grinder
I have bought basic necessities
Don't you have a bathroom?
Here
Bathroom...?
Don't you have a toilet?
No
We use the open ground
Your sister told me everything
Come, Mahesh
Let us go
Wait
Why?
This is the reason
There were no toilets for girls when she went to school
No toilet in her house either
She will only settle down in a house that has a toilet
'Come, Mahesh'
She likes you
If you build a toilet she will marry you
'You have hooked her at the right time'
Cleanliness is essential for a country
Hygiene is more important
If I say this, my words will go above your head
Only if a girl tells you your brain registers it
Super!
There's a scheme 'Live life to the fullest'
Govt is providing aid to build toilets
For the past 6 months this plan is in the offing
Estimate has been given
In our area 20 to 25 is possible, right?
(humming)
Careful, its 4G
Ration card, Voter's ID
Govt identity card Keep all these details ready
Take copies without fail
I'll call after getting the forms Come to the Block Development office
- What? - Okay, bro
Sir, there are totally 38 applications
I've gone through them thoroughly
If you sanction it the toilets can be built
And our people can 'Live life to the fullest', sir
Are you mocking me?
If I sanction it does it mean it is finalized?
There are so many formalities
Fund has to be mobilized
Good morning, sir
Collector's assistant called to discuss the free toilet issue
'Yes, sir'
'The files have gone to the minister'
The contract is taken up by our Tuticorin 'annachi'
'They are now in good terms, sir'
'Sir, percentage?'
'10% give or take a few'
'It is in the bargaining stage, sir'
'District officials get 4 shares'
'Then the officers'
'There are about 7 to 8 tables, sir'
'I'll book a conference call to the minister's assistant'
Before we discuss the matter let us talk about the money
Quotations have arrived from 8 companies
'From the centre to the state bribery is the key to collaboration'
'Collector, contractor, MLA, BDO councilor, all are waiting in a queue'
They have to be settled
I will see to all that It isn't a big issue
As if we will be building toilets
Who wants to know all that?
Priority for the country
Money, man
'Money from toilet-fund won't stink'
First start an account for everyone with Rs 500
Totally Rs 12,000
'If basement is ready Govt will pay Rs 4,500'
'After building the rest of it…'
'…if a photo is produced Rs 7,500 will be deposited'
'Will all this work out for you?'
'Come to the place'
'Take a photo with you'
'BDO sir and I will get everything done for you'
'Okay?'
Look at the camera
Change the door
Okay, done
Yes, sir It just got over
No problem at all Went off well
What is this?
Bro, this is-
Okay, get on to the bike first
Bro, they said it will cost 14,000 to build the toilet, 3 installments
They clicked photos
In the end they gave us this basin alone
I asked the councilor and he said 'Be happy you got at least this!'
When have they fulfilled a scheme completely?
From minister to councilor everyone has to be bribed
We only get what is left over after they help themselves
What to do with this?
Do whatever you can
We thought living only was difficult
Now even crapping is a herculean task!
My gray cells have started to protest!
Let me head to the wine shop
We can get engaged
I can't say 'yes' now
Once I get the money I'll finish building the toilet
Come here
Come closer
Sit here
We can
We can get married
"In a thatched hut small and square A princess walked into my life to share"
"I'll keep you in my heart gladly I'll sing a sweet lullaby"
"Even if the river runs dry swim in my love so true"
"Even if we go hungry I'll always care for you"
"Come, ask for my hand, love"
"I am with you right now"
I wore this once to a Republic Day function
Everybody was zapped
Here
If you wear this you'll look like a President
Why all this for me?
Wear it, my dear new groom
Let's go
Aiyaiyo!
"No need to draw a 'kolam' in the porch as warm welcome"
"In a porch-less home, you'll be my golden flower beauty"
"You don't need diamonds on my ear as ornaments"
"When you're my precious diamond why fake jewelry, my dear husband?"
"With my toil and sweat as thread I'll weave a saree in bright red"
"If you smile shyly at me I'll hug you tight, my wifey"
"Even after we unite in desire my passion blazes like fire"
"Like the sun in the meadows my joy knows no bounds"
"In a thatched hut small and neat I'll cherish you as my heartbeat"
"After 9 months or so our babies precious, as a duo"
"If instead of 1, you give me 2 our medical bill is less too"
"We should make both of them shine like a precious gem"
"They should speak English fluently Make them fly to a foreign country"
"If we are together at midnight stars appear"
"Even if you sneeze, dear God will come to our aid here"
"Let joy run in every vein Like earth blessed by rain"
"If we live happily on earth do we need another birth?"
"In a thatched hut small and square My wife walked into my life to share"
"I'll keep you in my heart gladly I'll sing a sweet lullaby"
Our baby is singing inside
I know
Our baby will definitely become a singer
She will participate in reality shows and win
Seeing that we will cry and it will be telecast all over
- Madcap! - Don't laugh
Whatever the expenses we should save Rs 5 daily
Only then we can send our baby for the 'Super singer' show
Do you understand?
Understood
"I am right now with you, my love"
Sir, this is Logu's house
Good day, sir
Good morning
Greetings, sir
Can we have a look at the toilet?
No, sir
We can go to Vediapppan's house
But the Village Officer mentioned only this house near the ground
No, sir
Come, I say
Brother, please tell him
They have sent me a photo in WhatsApp
Take a look
Where is the toilet?
This is it
You promised to build it and this is what we got
Even now we crap outside near the pond
Keep quiet!
Sir, there are totally 38 candidates
Most have them took the money And left it undone like this
Only Vediappan has completed it
We can fix that
Move
Sir, this is what has happened
What do you mean? This isn't a small issue
The President and Chief minister are coming over here
This is a serious issue
All the officers are dumbstruck
The President is coming to inaugurate the toilets
It came as a shock Like a bomb explosion
I got the jitters
Minister and officers are coming tomorrow
What you have to do is show this house to them
Let's see what they say
And then we can decide
Okay, sir
Start the car
Brother, is the President coming?
Get lost!
Why are they suddenly executing the toilet scheme?
They are making it a brand all over India
According to the circular, a model village has to be designed in Bihar, UP or Dharmapuri
President has marked it here
How many toilets have been sanctioned in our district?
20, 610
What are you saying?
So little
Have they spent the rest on building toilets?
Has my brother-in-law gone through the files?
He is the first in line
All the particulars has been submitted to your brother-in-law promptly
Okay
How is he?
Hope he won't suddenly raise questions like our ex-President Abdul Kalam sir?
Hang around till the President's visit
How will I leave you and go, sir?
I have no choice
'If 'Kesava' once we utter all our miseries will disappear'
'Lord Vishnu lies on a snake-bed in Thiruvanthapuram sacred'
Greetings, sir
This is the perfect place
There is an open space to receive the President
Media and crowd can be easily accommodated
Even the Infront security will mark this place
I've already sent the photos to Delhi
Okay, sir
Where is the bathroom?
We can go and see, sir
Where?
Right here
This baby-toilet?
This is what we were given, sir
'And I found that all-good bestowing name, Lord Narayana'
Hey! Stop quoting hymns in praise of God now
The function is fixed for the 25th
Not even a week to go
Finalize everything as soon as possible
I know, 25th Works well with numerology
2+5=7
Keep quiet
Ask the contractor to send some laborers
Okay, bro
Ask them to clean the village
Paste posters all over the district
Yes, 'anna'
Ask them to build a toilet in this house
Paint the walls
The President will take photos here
Understood?
Yes, bro
They will come from Delhi and finalize everything
Consider it done, sir
'Pappireddipatti'
'Live life to the fullest'
Whose house is that in the corner of the street?
Venkatachalam, sir
Does it have a toilet?
No, sir
Ask everyone to go there
First build a toilet there
Hurry up
Don't make my blood pressure shoot up!
Come…come
Leave this for now
It isn't necessary it seems
Come behind me
Bring that too
Hurry up
Forget that
Come soon
Why-
Come
Brother…?
Tell us your name
Venkatachalam, sir
- Your name? - Madhamma
Greet the President with folded hands when he comes
Say 'vanakkam'
Greet them
'Namasthe' sir
Now we are in Pappireddipatti Dharmapuri district
A village which was ignored till yesterday
(press coverage)
Get going
The President is coming
You can't be lying down here
Get up
Don't disturb me, sir
Thank you
I like to thank the president for building a toilet for us
Leave
You'll let all the terrorists go scot free
You will get hold of only us poor people...
…who live by temple offerings
You are good at this!
Awwww! Oh God
Malli...?
Where did you go?
Look at me
My dear...aiyo!
Has the minister arrived?
'They said the President has reached Dharmapuri'
Hold on for a minute
Hey! Mannan
Disconnect, I'll call
What happened?
Come with me
Tell me what happened?
Your wife?
Let's go
What happened?
The bathroom wall collapsed
You left things half way
My dear
Stay here
Stay here, I'll come
I will inform the doctor and bring him along
Come soon
My precious!
Look at me
Come, sir
Carry her, please
Wait
The President will leave in 10 minutes
Then we can call the ambulance
What are you saying?
Carry her
Keep quiet
Stay calm We will take her
She is pregnant
Please help me carry her
Keep quiet Don't shout
Look at her, sir
Give me a hand
Do not shout Wait till the media leaves
Wait, don't yell
HELP ME LIFT HER
GIVE ME A HAND!
Lock him in
Take him away
Shut the door firmly
Malli!
My dear
She is pregnant She can't bear the pain
Open the door
Yov! Open
Move, don't hide
Can someone help me?
Don't shout
My wife is injured
I know
Call someone, sir
Ask someone to open the door
Please ask them to open
Go forward
Greetings for the day
'Live life to the fullest' scheme was introduced by the Govt of India
Please ask them to let me out
Wait till the media leaves
Call the ambulance
It's here only
Wait
Long live India
My dear
Sir, careful
Open your eyes, dear
You will be fine
You have brought her so late after the accident
Are you such a nitwit?
The baby is dead
We have administered Oxytocin for her to get contractions
'Pregnant woman admitted in hospital'
'We want justice'
'Corruption raises its ugly head even in the toilet scheme'
'Mallika needs justice We want justice'
Why get hassled?
First go to the hospital
There is a clot in her brain due to the harsh impact of stones on her head
This condition is called vegetative state
It is more or less like a coma stage
We don't know when or if she will regain consciousness
So what?
We should not be scared of anything
We will fight till the very end
How much did the Govt pay for you to build your toilet?
Nothing at all
All they gave was the basin
Took photos
They covered up with a lot of lies
They lined their own pockets, sir
My bad time
Stones fell on my wife's head
Mallika is lying like a vegetable now
Do I attend to her or follow up this court case?
No one should go through this
You will cook up a scheme to line your pockets, huh?
My baby died in the womb
Only you have to help me out, sir
Those who were responsible for this
Right from the Chief Minister and minister...
...to the health officer and councilor, 8 people totally
Ponoonjal has filed a case against them
'Since the prosecutor has no incriminating evidence...'
'...this case is adjourned'
'The Court also reprimands the defendant for abusing higher officials without evidence'
Hospital will prove too expensive
You can take care of her at home
Sister has left
I dropped her near the entrance
I have bought flowers for you, dear
Shall I keep it on your hair?
Can I play a song for you?
My Malli was so full of life
I can hear her laughter echo in my mind all night
I keep waking up
They are just dreams
My imagination
Request the Govt to kill her
She is alive but going through hell, sir
The Govt which built the toilet has also built the hospital
Ask them to kill her
Grant her the freedom to die please
'After hearing all the arguments'
'The court takes up interrogation today'
'Regarding Mannar Mannan's petition for euthanasia'
'Final verdict in 2 weeks'
'Considering the arguments'
'The court has denied permission for euthanasia of patient Mallika'
'Once again the case has been adjourned'
'Euthanasia plea for Mallika has been rejected by the Madras High Court'
He comes to power only with our votes
We have the right only to empower him
But if he blunders...
...don't we have the right to dismiss him?
Law and order has let us down
Is this my plight now?
Don't we have...any power to change it?
We don't have
You don't have any bloody power
Go sleep
At least sleep today
Go
Go sleep
Otherwise you'll go mad!
'Only the President can point his finger to change or revoke our laws'
(heavy breathing)
'If they don't give we must help ourselves'
'That's power'
I'm the President speaking
Tell me, Mannar
Ponoonjal, can you hear me?
The President here
Welcome, Mr President
Get down, Mr President
We have a lot of work to do
Please get down
My dear people
I, Mannar Mannan with the presence of the 3 forces...
...I solemnly affirm with this secret oath I will serve our beloved nation as its President
Leave me
Let me go
Police atrocities Down! Down
'They don't like me coming to power'
'So the Prime Minister's men are beating me up, dear'
'I should teach them a lesson'
'That's why I intend calling for a strike tomorrow'
'President's trial by fire to permit Euthansia legally in India'
Oh my god! President
How is the collection going on?
Good lord!
118 missed calls
He is getting on my nerves
He drives me mad
'Alcohol kills men'
'Where are the shop owners then?'
(anti-drinking slogan)
'People's President protests by prostrating on a bed of nails'
'Protest to close liquor shops'
'People's President protests by prostrating on a bed of nails'
'Alcohol kills men'
'Where are the shop owners then?'
'People's President protests by prostrating on a bed of nails'
The appeal to the Supreme Court regarding your wife's case ...
...has been prepared by our lawyer
'It is evident certain facts by the petitioner were overlooked...'
'...by the Madras High Court while passing the judgment'
'Hence this petition has been accepted by the Supreme Court'
(wakes up startled)
What?
What happened?
My wife...where is she?
Is your wife dead?
Not yet
The case is pending in the Supreme Court
She'll get her 'happiness' soon
I will send her off with State honors
By the way why are you in jail?
I brought India under military rule
So the Prime Minister's men who didn't like that pushed me in here
I participated in the 'Iftar' feast which didn't go well with them
I get it, brother I totally get it
If you try to do good no one will like it here
Nowadays people prefer villains over heroes
Just like you, there was a head constable in Trichy
They forced him to shoot a good man
Guess what? Head constable thought no end of himself
He acted as the Commissioner
Single handed, he ran the police station so well
Finally they put him behind bars and gave him a solid hiding
Poor fellow!
If he's a good man...
...perhaps I can speak to the Home Ministry and get him out
Aiyaiyo! Don't bother
You go back to sleep
Hey! In the morning I'll get you a mobile phone
Do you want to talk to your wife?
Oh! No No need
Mobile phones shouldn't be used
If I use it myself, then I'll be setting a wrong example
Okay, sleep Careful...careful
Why did you come in here?
I always come in here during summer
And leave during winter
What kind of a city is this? So congested...!
Try to get some sleep
Shall I sing an old song for you?
"With her bountiful nature isn't the earth our mother?"
"Isn't the sky showering many a lesson as our father and guardian?"
I've brought crab gravy and fish fry for you
Hog all you want
Crab curry when I am in jail, huh?
Why do I need an aphrodisiac in here?!
Look, the President Greet him
Good morning, sir
You said you wanted to talk to someone?
Give her the number She'll go out and call
Brother, this isn't wrong
It's quite legal
She'll call only when she steps out
Give her the number
Tell me, sir
98-43-43-82-56
Isai
My secretary
What should I tell her?
Ask her to take good care of Mallika
She should be fed at the right time
She should ask the doctor whether the pipe for the bathroom has been bought
Nails to be trimmed
Rose plants to be watered
Offer a 5 rupee coin in a temple donation box
Drops
And then tell her I'll be out soon
Isai, why did you come here?
I made sure someone is with Mallika madam
Malli...?
Why did you do this without thinking it through?
We were anyway intending to appeal to the higher ups
No, implementing military rule was the right call to take now
Without doing anything...
...so many prisoners here are dying naturally
Break this political conspiracy and bring me out first
I need to tell our people the truth
I've made arrangements
The Supreme Court's verdict in your wife's case will be out this Friday
You wanted to attend it
We have used that as the reason for your bail application
It will come through
I have spoken to the Legal Services Authorities
They will take you to Delhi
I'll leave now
I've spoken to my friends in the Delhi legal circle...
...to take care of the President
If the judgment goes against him he will be mentally affected, Isai
Once the President is back we have to take good care of him
Okay, sir
'Delhi'
'For withdrawing life from a person incompetent to take a decision...'
'...there's no statutory provision in our country as to the legal procedure'
'Our country has been debating on the pros and cons of euthanasia for the past 14 years'
'The board of members of the Central Govt...'
'...has not passed the draft bill on this subject'
'The Indian Constitution condemns any form of violence'
'The Death sentence verdict is also given only to significant cases'
'The court strongly believes that no one has the right to take any form of life'
'To consider euthanasia makes death meaningless'
'And the respect for life will drastically reduce'
'On the above basic, euthanasia is totally vetoed by this court of law'
'And hence the court rejects the plea of the petitioner'
Your petition has been dismissed Euthanasia is not allowed in India
I don't accept this verdict
I reject your...judgment
Did you understand what I said?
I respect the law
I was waiting for your judgment
You've dismissed it
As the President I'll sign the file myself
And provide mercy killing to my wife myself
I have the power
I have brought military rule to India
No one can avail a stay on my decision
Court, verdict, none of these
She is unaware of her own suffering
I need to make her happy
Let me go
Mallika is suffering
I need to see her
I have to go
My wife was so full of life!
I have to make Mallika happy
That's why I signed the order
After making the citizens half dead for whom is your mercy reserved?
You can't even build a toilet without taking bribes
I was wrong to expect mercy from you
'Based on the details of the case and the attributes of the petitioner...'
'...it is evident to the court that the petitioner is mentally disturbed'
'The court objects to the imprisonment and denial of proper treatment to the petitioner'
'The concerned department has to be interrogated'
'We recommend the police department to admit him for mental health assistance at once'
'The court orders proper security to be given to Mallika...'
'...the petitioner's wife who is in a vegetative state'
I must make her happy
Only I can do so
First let us do the checkup and then his treatment will start
Okay
Please wait in the Dean's room and then we will send for you
Doctor, please take care of him
I must meet Mallika
Nurse!
Let go of me I must see Mallika
I need to go
Leave me
I need to go
I need to see Mallika
"A flower caught in a storm helplessly"
"What would its poor fate be?"
"Teeny-weeny"
"Koels many"
"Covey of quails with grey-brown tails"
"River sand refreshing, my dear
"Money for a rainy day, my treasure"
"Don't get spent, I pray"
"Don't get spent, my rose bouquet"
Hey! Your brother has jumped bail in Delhi
He must have spoken to you
You had better give us the information
"My true love My treasure trove"
"A flower in a tempest caught How will it safely get out?"
"How would a mere flower weather a violent twister?"
"Beloved...o' my soul friend"
"Where the village guardian stands and the noon rays of the sun dance"
"A goat delivering its kid I see I think of you immediately
"When the morning star at 4'o clock winks Tall palm trees whisper to the cold winds"
"Your tinkling laughter caresses my ear"
"In the sky dipped in shades of orange clouds cluster with a message"
"They draw your face Deft strokes in place"
"You are all I've got My lucky mascot"
"My better half Rose petal soft"
"My heartbeat My life complete"
"How can a rosebud weather a storm?"
"In a storm how can the bud be calm?"
"What we saw in the nests of the Blue mountain forests"
"Those eggs are now birds flying far south"
"Silk moths in pairs, dear we once saw here"
"Now they adorn our Goddess as a silk saree priceless"
"The days we waited to spend exchanging stories don't end"
"The nights we watched the moon shine They are still memories so sublime"
"You are all I've got My lucky mascot"
"River sand refreshing, my dear"
"Money for a rainy day, my treasure"
"Don't get spent, I pray"
"Don't get spent, my rose bouquet"
"My better half Rose petal soft"
This one came in last night
This is a knife wound case
No...no
All these came in yesterday
One is a case of poisoning
This came in early morning Got hit by a truck
They killed him
He is responsible for my brother's death
You killed my brother
Now you've come to the funeral pretending to be grief-stricken
Somehow you drove that boy to insanity and killed him
Lunatic! Go away
'After the postmortem is over you can take your brother's body'
'If that mad old man claims it he will create a huge ruckus'
I'm the one who killed him, right?
Made him a corpse like this
You, me, him
Why did we become like this?
It has been 20 years since I saw my family
I can't turn a blind eye to what is happening around me
Rage
Retaliation
I felt I can sleep only if I do something
What's most painful is...
...the very people whom we are fighting for
For whom we are dying
They look at us as comedians in the most mocking manner
People are like this
They endorse what's wrong
Make villains win and celebrate their mistakes
But can that make us slaves of power and authority?
It's better to eat crap and survive
Rent a lodge near the bazaar and run a brothel
Are we here for that?
Everyone has labeled him a lunatic
But you loons use caste, religion, politics as a bargaining tool
Not bothered to look at a man as fellow human being
He scrapes to live with selfishness as base
Utilizes money and power to make life sheer hell
Dissects and sells nature piece by piece
Mocks at people planting trees
Salutes people who smuggle sand
Like selling his mother and wife...
...he sells his vote
After gawking at all the fun...
...you die like herds of sheep
You are not mad
But we are mad for sure
I accept, we are mad
We are mad
'Hello, comrade'
'Yes, comrade'
'It was not an accident'
'He was hit by a truck carrying sand and killed'
'We will file a case tomorrow at the earliest'
'We have started our fight for justice'
'Tomorrow evening the protest begins at our Gandhi's statue'
'You should definitely be present, comrade'
'Thanks, comrade'
'Protest March tomorrow Come to the street, comrade'
