Arima Nambi [Lion-hearted]
However pretty she maybe...
...let her take one look at me before rejecting me
Why pass me up with a fleeting glance?
She should atleast give me the bare minimum attention
Buddy, look there!
I'll give her a score of 7
7? I'd give her a 3 at best
He's so desperate that he thinks this girl is good-looking!
You guys are a bit too much Let's see who you find
This happens only in Chennai
It's different in Bangalore and Bombay
There he goes again
I am not kidding
You'll find babes when you go for a walk...
...at the restaurant, when you go shopping
...at the office
Even when you take a break to smoke...
...you'll find two babes there
Bombay is the place to be!
Don't brag about Bombay
Nothing to beat a 'Tamil' girl!
You can't look beyond the girls here
Look! There comes a 'Tamil' girl
Wow! You were right, buddy
The excitement is in the search
It will get boring if you find them everywhere
They are coming in as a group
A score of 5
It's a 6
It's a 2
- It's a 10 - What?
The one dressed in blue
Oh, yes! She's gorgeous!
She is But I challenge you...
...she's either 'Pani Poori' from Bombay or 'Chapathi' from Delhi
Not 'Curd Rice' from here
Nothing great about her
She's coming
Check if she's Tamil
Hang on
Is this necessary?
You were the one who saw him first So you approach him
She's Tamil
So what?
It's not like she has fallen for you
Shut up
I must talk to her
I've never seen such a beautiful girl
I must atleast take her number
I bet a thousand bucks
He's only going to gape at her till she leaves...
...and whine about it later
That was last week It's different today
You go on, buddy
Do you think this is some drunken babble?
Watch me now
They're just goading you
It's already late
We need to get to the gym early in the morning
What? The gym...
Have you seen my physique?
We're best friends
We're meeting up after a long time
We saw you all...
...all of you look beautiful
We thought we'd dedicate a song to you
You tell me... What's your favorite song?
The kind of song I like...
Sing in Tamil
"I smelt the fragrance of a Satin flower"
"A violet colored Satin flower..."
"...came into my town and mesmerized me"
"She made my heart skip a few beats..."
"...and made it start all over again"
"Who is she?"
"Is she honey from Kashmir?"
"Is she a doe from Mumbai?"
"Is she a fish from Kolkata?"
"Or just a girl from Delhi?"
"My friend asked me these questions..."
"...no is what I said to him"
"Oh, she speaks in Tamil..."
"...she stole my heart at that moment"
"Who is she?"
"She throws rocks at my heart..."
"...she enjoys the upheaval she causes"
"This wicked one, who is she?"
"This Beauty, who is she?"
"I searched the room..."
"...who is your angel?"
"Is she the pinnacle of beauty?"
"Who is this star?"
"Who is she?"
"If you search with your eyes..."
"...you will not find her, tell me why?"
"Who is she to you?"
"Who is she to me?"
"What is her name?"
"Why do you ask me?"
"What is her number?"
"Why do you look at me?"
"Who is she?"
"She knew the answer, yet she teased me"
"She made me sing in Tamil"
"She stood glaring, who is she?"
"She won my heart, who is she?"
Look!
He has got her number
What a beautiful name!
You have her number Now, go for it
We saw each other yesterday, we danced
I even played the guitar
It's going to take a lot more time to impress a girl
Should I tell you how to impress girls?
- How? - With money
You need to have a good car, dress well...
...take her shopping, own a huge house, a great job...
If you have all this, it's easy to impress girls
So, you speak out of your rich experience?
I don't have any of this That's why I've failed
I have her number...
...I want you to give me an excuse to call her
How about this?
Aren't you tired?
Because you've been running through my mind since we met yesterday
How about saying this?
Now I know why you don't have a girlfriend
- She has sent a message - What has she said?
You can let your silly ideas be
She wants to know if I slept well How do I respond?
Don't think too much Be brave
Respond and take it forward
What a stupid reply 'how are you?'
Wait
Hand me the phone
Don't send it
How can I ask her out for dinner right away?
You're embarrassing me She's going to yell at me
The effort of playing the guitar has gone waste
See it Come on
How did she agree?
How do I suddenly go out for dinner with a girl?
What do you mean?
You were brave enough to ask for her number last night!
I was high
Have a drink when you go out
How can I have a drink when I go out for dinner with a girl?
You didn't fall for her at a temple, did you?
You met her at the pub
Make sure she falls for you over this dinner
Don't ask me for further advice
Where do I take her for dinner?
What about 'Andhra Mess'?
How are you?
Shall we go in?
You said this was a birthday gift, when was your birthday?
Last week 22nd January
Damn! I've missed your birthday treat by a week!
I've missed out on getting a gift too
When is your birthday?
Why?
Don't you read zodiac forecasts in the papers?
I am an 'Aquarian'
Astrologically, I won't get along with people born in November
We'll keep arguing
I was born on the 29th It's the fag end of November
You can take it to be December
Even a day counts, November it is You can't change it
What's your full name?
Let's try 'Flames' to see if you and I will be compatible
Sister?
My friend gave me...
...a bottle of Vodka for my birthday
It's at home Would you want to...?
That won't be necessary
We can go back to my place from here
To your place?
We can go
- Is it ok? - What is ok?
It is twelve already...
...is it ok to come home this late?
Let's drop him first and then...
I'll come I just asked if it was ok
All right, come without saying a word
This is the place
I forgot to tell you, you sing really well
But you embarrassed me in front of my friends
Don't you have a watchman here?
- Who's that? - It's me
Oh! It's you
The maid didn't come today...
...I'll tell her to come tomorrow
- What happened? - Nothing
He's just the watchman, not my father
Why are you getting this scared?
You've got a beautiful apartment
Oh! It's unopened
Where are your parents?
My mom passed away when I was five years old
Dad is around
We have a huge house, but very far off...it's on ECR
I'm there during the weekends
I stay here when I go to College It's close by
What is it?
When I was in College, my house was far off too...
Did your parents get you an apartment too?
No, they got me a bus pass
I need to clarify something
What is it?
I've not had a guy visit my apartment before this
Really?
Why are you so shocked by that?
Do you think I bring guys home just like that?
No, I believe you
You've known me for just two days
That is why I...
A girl doesn't need two days to assess a guy
- She can do that over one dinner - Over one dinner, how?
When you enter a restaurant for a dinner date...
...the guy must hold the door for the girl
Yes...don't guys do this?
30 percent of them fail in this
What else?
Making noises while eating
40 percent of them fail
This is a terrific point
The guy must pay on the first date
We may pretend to offer...
...but the guy must ask for the bill and pay it
The phone connection is weak...
...I'll come out and talk to you
But the third rule applies only to the first date
They should take turns to pay if they meet again
This apart, if he showers me with compliments...
...he gets bonus points
Only when he gets past this, can he meet me again
It seems like I've passed a tough evaluation
You flunked in 22 subjects in college...
...but you've passed this exam
Where is the restroom?
What a girl!
Things seem to be moving quickly
But don't get tense
We'll have another round of drinks
Whatever happens after that, let it!
She's a beautiful girl
Don't mess it up and fail
What if this girl comes up with a Rule number 4...
...'brush before you kiss'?
Who is it?
Who are you?
- Hold her - Let me go!
Hurry up! Get into the car
Who is he?
He must be her boyfriend
We'll take care of it, come on!
Because I quarreled with my wife I was slept on the bus stop
But you took me here
What wrong did you do, sir?
If she suspects me...
Shut up!
Stop wailing Or I'll break your bones
My family will be looking for me
Please let me go
What do you want?
It's an emergency They have kidnapped a girl
Two men...at her home...
...with guns and knives
Wait...
- Her life is in danger - Wait!
Come here, Arumugam
What's the name?
My name?
What's your name?
Is that the full name?
What do you do?
I'm a supervising engineer in a car showroom
What does your dad do?
A girl's life is in danger If we don't act quickly...
What does your dad do?
He's retired
- Are you married? - No
What's the girl's name?
What's her last name?
Don't you know her last name?
- We matched our names with 'Flames'... - 'Flames'?
Check if he is drunk
Her name is Anamika Raghunath
Where does she stay?
They kidnapped her from that apartment on the third floor...
What's the address?
Don't you know the address either?
I don't
Why should I know?
You've been questioning me endlessly...
...I don't know the address, but I know the way
Don't waste time, act fast
You dare to come here drunk and talk to me like this!
How long have you known her?
Two days...
Just two days!
Don't you dare tell me about wasting time!
We need to enquire guys like you who get drunk and hang around with girls
You look decent, that's why I've offered you a seat
Else, I'll be treating you like that guy over there
They hang around with girls late at night...
...and then hassle cops with complaints of kidnap and rape
Give me the girl's mobile number
'This mobile number is currently switched off'
Can you identify the two kidnappers?
Certainly! I remember their faces
Arumugam, go check out what he's saying
Let's go
He's normally in a bad mood after 10 p.m
Don't mind that
Take the right and keep going straight after that
Didn't you say they took her in a car?
Yes
Did you make note of the license plate?
I forgot to tell the Inspector
Yes
Stop this car wherever you see it
This is the one, the apartment to our right
What is the matter, sir?
You are here on untime
A girl called Anamika Raghunath lives here, doesn't she?
Third floor
Yes
The fair girl, she studies in college
Yes, she's the one
An hour back...
We've received a complaint saying she was kidnapped an hour back
What?! Kidnapped an hour back?
It's been four days since she last came here
She has gone on a tour
She told me she'll be back only next week
She is on a tour?
Didn't you see her getting into the elevator?
You even told her that the maid didn't come today
Why would I lie? Who is this guy?
He came here with that girl
He was in her apartment when two men kidnapped her
- Didn't you see him here? - No, sir, he wouldn't have seen me...
...but he definitely saw the girl
Weren't you with her when she came here?
When he was speaking to her, I walked into the elevator
What is he saying?
The last time I opened the gate was at 11:30 p.m
This Hyundai Verna came in The owner is on the 4th floor
The gate's been locked since then Only you've come after that
- What's your name? - Murugesan
- How long have you been working here? - Six years
Do you stay here or...?
Me coming in with that girl, her kidnap...
...all of it would have been captured on this security camera
Please arrest him
Where does the footage get recorded?
- At the office room - I need to go in
We need to take permission from the Association
Will you come back in the morning?
Open up the room, I am telling you to!
- Yes, sir - Come on
At what time did you come in?
It must have been around 12:15 a.m
I'm sure it was 12:15 a.m
It was around 1 a.m when they kidnapped her
Fast forward the footage
Look! It's just the two of you entering
Someone has tampered with the video
Arrest and question him
I've been working here for the last six years
Anyone will vouch for me
Get home and sleep instead of blabbering in your drunken state
What the hell?
Who's blabbering? He's lying, sir
I came here with that girl
How would I know how her apartment looks?
They must have broken open the door
Let's go up...
...you'll know only when you see for yourself
Do you have the keys?
The keys have been left with me to get the place cleaned
Bring the keys Let's go up
Someone has cleared all the evidence
Let's go
Murugesan, lock the house
Stay up
Someone from the Police Station might come here for an enquiry
Didn't you say her name was Anamika Raghunath?
Yes
See this
Raghunath Kumar, the girl's father
He owns the TV Company, Channel 24
I'm calling from J5 Police Station
- What is the matter? - It's an emergency
There's been a robbery at your daughter's apartment
Robbery? At her apartment?
Not at her apartment, but the one below
We're talking to all the residents...
...to check about the watchman
I called to find out where your daughter is
She's not in town
She has gone to Goa with her friends
I'm the CEO of Channel 24
We can meet at my office at any time
I didn't mean to disturb her This is just a formal call
Where are your parents?
Coimbatore
Let's go to the Police Station and explain things to the Inspector
Give it some time Think about all that happened
You're not going to believe what I'm saying
I myself don't understand what is happening
I've known her only for two days
But it looks like I am lucky even to be alive
Could you please drop me home?
All right, I'll talk to the Inspector
Where's your house?
It's close by
We have to take the right after we get off the bridge
- Do you live on the first floor? - Yes
Sleep well
Everything will be fine in the morning
I'll see you
Do you believe what the watchman says?
Yes, sir
I don't think he is lying
But I don't understand why this guy is saying this
We've to handle these weird situations amidst the different things we do!
We don't have to file a complaint...
...now that even the guy has gone back home
Now that he's sober...
...he has gone back without a fuss
Don't waste time on this
We have to submit the report on the murder case tomorrow
- Aren't you leaving? - No, sir...you go ahead
They've kidnapped a girl Two men...with guns and knives...
- What's the girl's name? - We played 'Flames'
Check if he is drunk
'This mobile number is currently switched off'
It's been four days since she last came here
She has gone on a tour
Didn't you see her getting into the elevator?
You even told her that the maid didn't come today
When he was talking to her, I walked into the elevator
Go home and sleep instead of blabbering in your drunken state
Someone has cleared all the evidence
She is not in the town She has gone to Goa with her friends
Could you please drop me off at home?
See this
Raghunath Kumar, the girl's father
- Is Muthu inside? - He hasn't said anything yet
He can't get away without giving it
- Really? - What happened?
That guy is somewhere here
Look near that bush
We should have killed you right there
You've come this far
It seems you even told the Police that you will identify us
Kill him and get back inside
The girl's father said that she's gone to Goa
Then, how did we get a 'switched off' telephonic voice in Tamil?
That's why I came here to check
Come with me
Will you air just anything in the news?
Now, look what's happened Your daughter is with me
I've managed to keep her away from my guys till now
Do you want her to be in the 'news' as well?
I'll do what you want
Where's my daughter?
Let her go
How many copies did you make?
Just one
It's in a memory card
Suspecting drug usage at the beach house party...
...I had a camera installed
I didn't expect such an incident to get recorded
Only my senior journalist Rajesh and I know about this
People will be murdered, that's none of your business
Even if you'd asked him for a ransom...
...he'd have given it to you
But, you were planning to broadcast it!
Where is that memory card?
I had asked Rajesh to keep it in the Company's locker
Call him
Tell him that someone called Gunaseelan will collect it
If the phone call doesn't go right...
...your daughter will die
Go on
Some guy has murdered someone...
...he has it taped
That's why they've kidnapped his daughter...
...and are blackmailing him
- Yes, sir - Where are you, Rajesh?
I'm getting back from Pondicherry
I'll reach at 5 a.m What's the matter, sir?
I need that 28th January memory card urgently
That one! Is there a problem?
There's no problem Open the studio at 5 a.m
A man called Gunaseelan will collect it from you
I'll ask him to call you
Rajesh, do what I ask you to
Keep an eye on him until we get the memory card
Let's go
Where is Logu? He went to kill that guy
Did you see him?
- No, I don't know - You don't?
He's not dead
He's moved from there to here
That CEO is trying to escape Kill him
The sub-inspector is also with him Shoot them down
Don't let them escape Get them
I don't think I'll make it to the hospital
Don't go to the Police
We don't know who else is involved
Shoot them
Get away from these guys and leave the city
It looks like some big shot is involved
- Come, sir - I can't come
I've lost a lot of blood
Throw away your phone's 'SIM' card
They're tracking you using your mobile phone number
Are you sure you want to rescue Anamika?
The men who've kidnapped her are local thugs
They're strong men
They can stab you with a knife...
...or shoot you with a gun
But they can't take on hand-to-hand combat
That's difficult
But, you're doing that
I asked you to leave this city
But I say this now...
If you fight back...
...they'll shudder
Go in search of her
Don't let her go
I'll rescue Anamika from these men
But you need to be taken to the hospital first

Brother...
Is that Inspector still not reachable?
Idiot!
Wonder where he disappeared
We've got the memory card
I thought we'd be done with our work if we kill Raghunath Kumar
Should I send someone to check if they've killed him?
Let's collect our money first...
...and then send a person to check
Hand this to them and get into the car
The parcel is with me
You won't have any trouble from the Police
I've killed Arjun and Raghunath Kumar
I'm heading to the lodge now
I'll kill that girl as well
I'll come to the lodge at 10 a.m and collect the parcel
What about the money?
It's ready as promised
Half the amount has been transferred
You'll get the balance amount when you give me the parcel
They've transferred half the money
We'll get the balance only when we deliver the memory card
Where do we hand it over?
Hang on
Don't we have to check if they have transferred the money?
Let's withdraw the money first
They'll collect the card from the lodge
Keep it in the dashboard I'll go get the money
I'll come along too
I'm not going to run away with the money
- I didn't mean that - Fine, come along
The vehicle papers are fine...
...but why did you park the car in a 'No parking' zone?
Lock that vehicle
Damn it! They've got alloy caps on it
There's a gun in the dashboard
What are you saying?
- Did you see that? - Yes, sir
I went there to put a lock
Won't you tell it early that you want a tea with less decoction?
The car is locked
Give me a bottle of water
Look at this, sir
It's parked in front of the bank
Whose car is this?
They might have gone to the bank
Give me 20 rupees
This is the vehicle
- It doesn't look like a licensed gun - Yes sir, you are correct
Check with the guard about people who've come to the bank
How long has it been parked here?
Have you sent an alert with the car number?
Karthik, alert the bank manager
Move all the Police vehicles and watch them covertly
If the two of them are caught by the Police...
...I won't be able to find out where Anamika is
Using bank CCTV footage collect last half an hour in and out details
If there should be any suspect Immediately inform me
My shawl!
Someone question him
Drop the gun
Drop it
Drop the gun
Go that side
Take out the money
Put the cash in this bag
Hurry up
Move
- Did you come on a bike? - We came by car
Sit down
Show me the keys
Get up Go on
There's been a planned armed robbery at the National Bank of India
They are getting away in a gray Xylo
We've spotted the car It's entering Nungambakkam
Go straight
Take the left
The visuals are not clear
It looks like the vehicle is entering the Harrington road subway
Pull over Stop
Who is he?
The Police are approaching We can't use this vehicle anymore
Get down!
Who are you?
My car's been stolen Please call the cops
What happened, sir?
Please help me, sir I don't know who they are
What happened?
He beat him up and took the car
Hello, Boss!
Come on
Hello, Boss!
- Discard the queen - Oh, yes
- No way - You're cheating
Yes, this floor Come on
Where did you go?
- Had some important business - You should've called me
You go ahead I'll come
Why are you so scared?
Don't behave like this in front of him
Brother...
What is it?
They are calling from the lodge in Tambaram
Tell them that I'll speak to them later
Think they've run into trouble with the Police
All right, give me the phone
Give the phone to the Sub-Inspector
Listen to me
They take bribes from us every month
Why have they come now? Give the phone to him
Come
Can't you see?
Anamika, run!
Catch him Don't let him go
Catch them
Who are you? You shouldn't be here
If he calls again, tell him that I'll speak to the Inspector
Wait outside
Where is the girl?
The memory card is missing too
Arjun has escaped with the girl
Arjun? Didn't I ask you to kill him at the ECR house?
- He's got away somehow - Look for him
Brother, they're here
Where's the memory card?
Arjun has taken the memory card and run away with that girl
What?
If we sanction this contract to Singapore people...
...then the local contractors will incur a loss
How long can we worry about local contractors?
I am here to do a profitable business
Doing a business is fine
What if any problem arises if you let in foreign contractors?
Who will answer?
Already the opposition are breathing over us
What if we take the wrong step and get stuck?
Arjun has taken the memory card and escaped with the girl
I'll be in Chennai in three hours
I need the memory card when I get there
Wipe out all the evidence
The girl...the boy...
Kill them both
There were four men All with guns
Before I knew it, they shot him
My dad has been everything to me since childhood
I didn't even have my mom
When she died, we weren't so rich
Mom and dad somehow managed to meet all their routine expenses
But my dad got worried after my mom's death
He had to raise me all by himself
He needed money to give me everything I'd wish for
He became a different person
For a few years after that, I'd meet my dad only once a month
He left me at my grandma's place while he worked hard
He went to America and started a business
After that, I studied in an International school...
...travelled in Mercedes Benz cars
He'd say everything belonged to me
But to me, the money wasn't important
That's why...
...kidnapping me and blackmailing him became easy
They wanted something from my dad...
...something so important that they'd even kill him for it
He was scared for my life, that's why he lost his
The people who murdered him must be made answerable
Even if they don't give you an answer, they'll have to explain this
Password?
Such passwords will only be available with my dad...
...or with some senior journalists handling the case
That's the standard practice
He didn't mention anything about a password at home
My dad has a personal diary
In that he'd have details of his high profile contacts...
...passwords and everything else
If this card were really important...
...then its password will definitely be there in the diary
- Where is the personal diary? - My dad's cabin, at Channel 24
Let's go there
- What happened? - Nothing, I'll be fine
They killed journalist Rajesh in this building
- I'll go in, you wait in the car - No, I'll go in
I know where my dad's cabin is
After we got away, they'd have sent people to look for us...
...at your house and mine or even at this TV studio
Tell me where your dad's cabin is Wait in the car till I come back
This building has an entrance from the side
The forensic department is analyzing the case
We can't say anything until we get their report
When you go through that entrance, you'll reach the lobby
Take the right
You'll see a fire exit
Take that to go to the first floor
I've checked, sir...they say there was a dance show yesterday
Get the organisers here before the Commissioner arrives
Get into the staff corridor from there
When you cross the working area, you'll reach the waiting lounge
You'll find a painting of Buddha outside a door
That's my dad's cabin
Look for a white locker
The password for opening it, is my birthday
- Whose room is this? - That's the news room
What are you doing here?
- Do you work here? - Yes
Haven't they asked everyone to go out?
I came here to take the camera
The glamorous actress, Jabitha...
...is giving us a bikini interview
Bikini interview?!
There's been a suicide here Won't you guys ever change?
Get out of here before the Commissioner arrives
Choco is more fond of you than of me
Who's that behind her?
I have a shoot tomorrow
Didn't you have a shoot wrap-up party for your friends yesterday?
That's a different film
Does the director or the actor flirt with you?
You don't want to attend these parties
If they knew about you, they wouldn't dare come near me
I can't blame them
Did you tell your wife at least today?
Why bring that up now?
You don't understand
How long can we keep this just between us?
You look so cute when you get worked up
Let's put the tension and pressure aside for sometime
You have to tell her today
When are you filing for a divorce with your wife?
I've told you not to keep asking me this question
There you go again
What?
I'll deliver a baby in seven months
Is that all?
Why are you getting worked up? I'll take care of it
How?
Before everyone gets to know, let's announce this
Announce this...?
What are you saying?
That was an accident
We'll abort the child tomorrow
Please wait in the car, sir I'll handle this
She's pregnant with my child
I'll take care of the post-mortem report
News reports over the last two days have alleged that...
...Megha Sharma died in a gas explosion
But it's a murder
She's been murdered by the Central Minister, Rishi Dev
How could he do this to a girl?
A big group is involved only to ensure this video doesn't get out
- Let's go to the Police - What?
The Police had a role to play in your kidnap
Do you want to just let this go?
Even if we decide to let it go, we've seen the video
What do you think we can do?
Who's more senior to Rishi Dev? Let's go to them directly
That's not so easy
We'd have to route it only through the Police
The Government will do anything to ensure this video doesn't get out
People are the most powerful
You saw what happened with the Delhi gang rape incident
Not just Delhi, all of Tamil Nadu stood up for the cause
When a girl's life is in danger, our people won't spare the guilty
How do we take it to the public? A big group is in pursuit...
...they also have support of the Police
We can directly upload it on the Internet
Nothing is more powerful than YouTube, Facebook or Twitter
If we have to get out of this mess...
...we'll have to release the video
This is the fastest way
Within an hour of uploading, it'll spread all over India
We can go to the Police after that
We need access to the Internet
As soon as we upload this video, we'll leave the city
- What happened? - Nothing
Go to a hotel nearby
We'll get Internet access and first aid for you
There's a laptop in here
Let me see
What a small camera!
With one click, the camera is on
And with another, it is off
Is this how your Company records those sex scandals?
Give me the memory card
Once this is uploaded, we have to leave this place
Else, they'll track us down using the IP address
Arjun, who are you calling?
Where are you, Arjun?
You left last night, you have taken my bike as well
Listen to me
I'm caught in a serious situation I need your help
What happened? Let's meet first
Whatever it is, we'll solve it
You are calling me from a different number
Where are you?
Anamika and I are at the Westin Hotel
What?! You guys have already booked a hotel room?
They had kidnapped Anamika
- We escaped from there - What are you saying?
I need my passport immediately
It's in my shelf
Come here with it I'll tell you everything
Come fast
Come with me
- Take off your shirt - What?
Take off your shirt
What is it?
I thought it was going to be just one dinner...
...but so much has happened
I got you involved in this mess
If only you hadn't been there in my apartment last night...
I have no one but my dad
You somehow managed to rescue me
We've known each other only for two days
"My heart..."
"...oh, my heart"
"...how did it come to you?"
"My love..."
"...your heart"
"...how did it come to me?"
"I've come into your eyes, woman"
"I will now follow you through time"
"What is this magic?"
"With your touch, my wounds disappear"
"My heart..."
"...oh, my heart"
"...how did it come to you?"
"Love is a library"
"The eyelids are books"
"I opened them..."
"...and read thousands of poems inside you"
"I forgot myself"
"I flew into the sky"
"I gave myself to you completely"
"I have nothing left with me"
"What is this magic?"
"With your touch, my wounds disappear"
"Love entered my bloodstream"
"It chanted your name in my sleep"
"In my life..."
"...there's rain and sunshine now"
"I lost something"
"I gained something"
"What else will I ask you?"
"I want a place in your heart!"
"What is this magic?"
"With your touch, my wounds disappear"
- Hurry up, come in quick - What is it?
What are you doing here?
- What are you doing? - Have you brought my passport?
It's in the bag Tell me what happened
The gas explosion which accounted for Megha Sharma's death...
...was a cover-up for her murder
Do you know who did it? The Central Minister, Rishi Dev
The murder has been captured on tape
To ensure that the video wasn't aired in the news...
...they had kidnapped Anamika and blackmailed her dad
My dad is the CEO of Channel 24
This seems to be a very serious issue
What are you doing with the laptop?
I'm uploading the video on YouTube
Don't do anything stupid! You'll get into more trouble
So many people are murdered this way
If this video gets out, they won't spare you
They won't spare me even otherwise
Anamika and I can get out of this mess...
...only if Rishi Dev is arrested
The girl's murder wasn't the only one...
...they've killed a sub-inspector of police, Arumugam...
...and Anamika's dad just for this video
You've known her only for two days Why do you bother about her dad?
People with political power can commit murder, swindle money...
Listen to me Let's get out of here quietly
No one will chase you if the video doesn't get out
I can't do that
Give me my passport I will handle this myself
Leave the city
They will surely come in search of my friends
When they can track you down with a mobile phone number...
...can't they find you if you went abroad?
Had you seen the video, you wouldn't be speaking this way
He has killed her brutally
Are you Megha Sharma's fan?
It's not too late Cancel the upload
It's not our business Let's go
What is it? I am talking to you and...
How did you know they tracked me with my mobile phone number?
What?
I never told you they tracked me down with my mobile phone number
How do you know that?
How else could they...?
Cancel it Listen to me!
- You gave them my number, didn't you? - Listen to me...
What is your connection with them?
After you came home last night and then left with my bike...
...they came looking for you It was around 2 a.m
Two strangers knocked on our door and asked me where you were
Does Arjun live here?
He is my room mate He has gone out
- Who are you? - His colleagues
We need to meet him right away
- Did he get in touch with you? - His colleagues...?
Give me his phone number We'll talk to him
Or you can come back in the morning, he'll be here
Then, I went back to bed
Someone knocked on the door at ten in the morning
Where is Arjun?
Did he call you?
Who are you? I swear he didn't call me!
Sit down
Didn't Arjun call you?
No
Who are all of you? What do you want?
He has our memory card
I don't know anything
He knows we're tracking him...
...he has thrown away his phone's 'SIM' card
When he calls you...
...you need to find out where he is and inform me
You don't have to do this for free
How long will you live such an ordinary life?
I'll give you 2 crore rupees
Just hand me the memory card...
...and go away somewhere and live a good life
2 crore rupees?
Half the amount is in the bag
The balance will be given when I receive the memory card
You took money from him? Aren't you ashamed?
No, I'm not
No one is born rich
Such opportunities come only once in a lifetime
We must make use of it
Don't spoil it by uploading this video What will we gain by doing this?
You think they'll let you go if you give them the card?
They'll kill us
They know where you are now
They'll be here in five minutes
Leave the card here and get going
I'll collect the money for us
You've betrayed me
I trusted you and you've backstabbed me!
Keep the gun inside
They are on the 4th street You go that way
They're going up I'm in pursuit
They're on the terrace
You go down
That girl is walking through the streets
I am going down
Where are you?
The girl has the memory card
Why did you cut the balloon rope?
It costs Rs 100 Who will pay me?
Stop there, girl
Can't you hear me?
Don't you have any sense?
Damn! No one is reachable
Before Joseph got there, they've tried uploading the video on YouTube
But, the uploading was cancelled
Till we get the memory card...
...should I ask for YouTube access to be denied to all Chennai users?
There are too many such sites and applications
We can't get them blocked individually
Find out how to shut down the Internet completely
He wants the entire network to be shut down
Yeah! Explain it to him
The whole of Chennai uplinks data to a satellite through one server
It is not possible to shut down the Internet completely
But we can use your access code to create a glitch in the satellite
This will cause the main server to re-boot
For 45 minutes, there will be no Internet operation...
...except on the Government Server
This will bring all Internet related activities to a standstill...
...resulting in heavy economic loss
Do you know the effect of a one hour power cut?
If the Internet is shut down for a mere 45 minutes duration...
...the city will not collapse!
Do it immediately
If the video gets out, you know what the repercussions will be!
I wanted to get this done without involving the Police
Call Arul Raj
- What is it, sir? - I haven't got the memory card yet
The guy and girl have escaped
- What? - That is why I've called you
I give you 45 minutes to get them
File a complaint saying they've eloped after killing the father
If you find them anywhere, shoot them at sight
I want the entire Police force deployed to look for them
I will take care of any paperwork you may need for this
I am heading there
Pay attention
This is the emergency I'd spoken to you about
They are lovers who've fought with the parents
The girl's father has been murdered
They've also killed sub-inspector Arumugam who helped him
As Raghunath Kumar is a media kingpin...
...the case has been moved to the Central Ministry
We've got orders to capture the suspects within the next 45 minutes
We've received information that they were armed...
...and were last seen at the Vadapalani Housing Board Colony
Keep a constant eye on the school and college they went to...
...and their places of work
Keep track of the people whom he frequently calls...
...and the ones he might contact
...his friends from work and near home
...his social media communication, his financial transactions
I have to be a step ahead of him
Sir, we are cheking all the vehicles
Yes sir, we've blocked all roads
I think the entire Police force is looking for us
Just the way they tracked me with my cell phone...
...they will be tracking me with my credit or debit card transactions
We have to get this done before they find us
How long should I wait for the data card?
I'm trying, the Internet is down
- Please wait - My phone's Internet is down too
There's no network coverage inside this mall
EDGE and 3G networks are unavailable
The router is re-booting
There's something fishy! Could this be the cops' ploy too?
There's only one way to end this
Make calls to all the important contacts from the Press
Just say there's sensational news waiting for you at the Forum Mall
We'll give this memory card directly to the Press
But the Police are everywhere
Calling the Press will take time We have to get them here
That will invite attention
I'll keep the Police busy
Use the pay phone
Even if I'm not back, hand it over to the Press at 4 p.m
We've blocked the Vadapalani area entirely and are searching for them
His most recent credit card transactions were...
...at the Park Pod restaurant last night for 9 glasses of red wine
...and for a deluxe suite room at Hotel Westin today
He hasn't used it after that
His 'SIM' card is not inside his mobile phone
He's neither active on WhatsApp nor Messenger
He has 453 Facebook friends...
...we're tracking the ones who live in Vadapalani
He has 140 followers on Twitter...
...43 Skype contacts and 3 email accounts
We're keeping track of his Internet activity
He's had a drink with three of his friends at the Hard Rock Café the day before
One of them died at Hotel Westin The other two work in Mumbai
He has twelve friends from Vadapalani
Seven of them were his college mates, three from his school...
...the other two are his colleagues
What if he's not there in the Vadapalani area?
We blocked the road within five minutes of the call
Get me the list of public places in that area
You are tracking their transactions
We've also sent a fax of their photos to all the hotels
If they attempt to book a room or dine somewhere, we'll get them
Remove hotels from this list
They'll look for crowded places to hide
The temples won't be crowded at 3:30 p.m
- What about the mosques? - No, sir
Parks and playgrounds are open spaces
Check the security cameras of all the malls and theatres
For how long can they hide?
I asked for extra cheese
It's in there! If you want...
No! It's fine
Get me some ketchup
Check out the fourth table
Arjun's credit card has been used at the New Town Café
The guy and girl are at the New Town Café...
...on Arcot Road
Surround the place immediately
- Where's Arjun? - He was eating his burger
He seems to have left without signing the bill
Arjun is not here
He disappeared even without collecting his card
He must be around Tighten the security
All right, don't keep calling me
- I'm sorry - Won't you be careful?
Are you blind?
Arjun here, it's something important
He has called his friend
He's called his friend Bharath just about a minute ago
Arjun here, it's something important
Tell me
Can you transfer twenty thousand rupees to my bank account immediately?
- What happened? Any problem? - It's very urgent! I'll explain later
I'll return the money in a week
Where has he called from?
A BSNL mobile phone, but it's not his
It's in the name of a person called Srinivasan
Track this voice on all calls
He knows the Police are after him
He won't use this phone again
I need two tickets to Mumbai on the next flight
Why am I not getting the location of this call?
It's a pay phone from a grocery store on Arunachalam Road
The Police are heading there
Fax their photos to the Airport's Security Wing
They shouldn't reach the Airport
Narrow down the search to within 500 meters of this pay phone
Check all the vehicles
He should not get past Vadapalani
The Police patrol team is approaching the ATM
Someone else has withdrawn money using Arjun's card
Check if he is Arjun's friend
He doesn't look like his friend
He could well be a friend from Facebook! Check!
Facebook friend...?
Only Arjun is there...?
Nobody has even made a mention of that girl so far!
Where is she?
This is the footage that was recorded in front of Forum Mall 45 minutes back
Give me a live feed of this mall's exterior camera
Why are there so many media vehicles in front of Forum Mall?
Let me check and get back, Sir
There are 25 people from the Press...
...and 15 media vans in front of Forum Mall
They claim they've received a call promising sensational news
Send the entire Police force there
Before any news reaches the Media, I want the two of them dead
Surround the mall
- The Police have come in - What are you saying?
We've spotted them
They are getting out through the exit on the side
Have that exit covered
The mall is crowded
I can see the target
The mall is packed with people
Arjun was not the one who got shot
- They've shot the cleaner - Quiet!
The situation is tense
The Press people are asking a million questions
We have to give them an answer
We've fired in public
Do what I say
The call you got promising sensational news was a hoax
But we did come here looking for Arjun Krishna and Anamika Raghunath
The two have killed the girl's father for his money
He was the CEO of Channel 24, Raghunath Kumar
We believe that Arjun has kept the girl under the influence of drugs
Not only that...
We tried nabbing them
That's when a man from the public got shot at in the crossfire
Anyone who gives information about them will get a reward...
...of Rupees Five Lakhs from the Police Department
Listen to me
Give out the contact numbers through these Channels
If anyone calls with information about them, transfer that call to me
Please follow me
We are taking a totally wrong route to solve this case
I tried explaining this to the Officer
But he wouldn't take me seriously
53 top Media houses have received calls claiming some sensational news
Do you know who made these calls?
The girl we've been searching for Anamika Raghunath
If they are on the run after committing murder...
...why would they call the Press?
I've done a bit of investigation to get some clarity on this
There was a charge of 16,000 rupees to Arjun's credit card at Hotel Westin
Another bill for an unpaid amount has been generated under that account
Knowing this, I tracked the IP address of the computer
They had uploaded almost 453 MB of a video on to YouTube
But the activity was cancelled even before the upload was complete
Going by the video they tried to upload...
...and the calls they made to the media
...if we recover the video from the server
...we'll definitely get a better idea
Is it possible to retrieve the video?
Yes, sir! The Government agencies can
Only when a video is fully uploaded, will YouTube display it
If for some reason it is cancelled, it will get stored temporarily
I have located our file...
...but it will get deleted in another five or ten minutes
I need a higher level access code to download it
If you can get me the code...
...we can download it within two minutes and even watch it here
Repeat what you said about the YouTube server
Only when the video is fully uploaded will YouTube display it
If the upload process is cancelled...
...the file will get stored in the temporary server
Close to eight lakh videos have been uploaded in the last two hours
Our video will definitely get deleted within a few minutes
If it gets deleted, we can't retrieve it
Two cups of coffee please
The video footage was our only way out
Now we don't have any evidence against him
They'll follow us to this coffee shop in no time
We can't run anymore
We came here in search of Arjun Krishna and Anamika Raghunath
They've killed the girl's father for his money
He was the CEO of Channel 24, Mr Ragunath Kumar
We believe that Arjun has kept the girl under the influence of drugs
No, people will notice use
They're accusing me for my dad's death
No one will believe us anymore
- Let's think - Think?
They are looking for us all over the city
What do you want us to do?
I need to make an urgent call
Could you give me your mobile phone?
Only the two of us know that the memory card got broken
They don't know it
The news says we should contact you if we have information on Arjun or Anamika
What is the information?
I'm the Arjun the Television News reports are talking about
I want to talk to the Officer handling this case
Connect the call to the Officer
- Arjun, listen to me - You listen to me
I have Rishi Dev's video on my mobile phone
I'm just a step away from sending it as an MMS
I have numbers of Government officials...
...University Professors, Judges, Student Union Presidents and so on
I can send the video in seconds
Do you think you can get away if you did something like that?
It's just a button's press away If I send it, it's over
It's right in front of me
But I'm not going to do it
What's the deal?
If the video gets out, Rishi Dev will be arrested...
...the girl's family will get justice
...and the country will be saved from a corrupt politician
All that's fine But, what will I get?
What are you trying to say?
I'll hand over that memory card to you
But I have some demands in return
- What are your demands? - You are a middleman
I can't tell you
If you want the memory card, my demands have to be fulfilled
I need to meet Rishi Dev in person
It must be a private meeting Strictly no Police
I will hand over the memory card only to Rishi Dev...
...and he needs to personally guarantee that my demands will be met
Think well and reply
If you don't agree, I'll send the MMS right away
Say yes
I am the future Prime Minister
Don't forget that
It'll get done with this
What can this worthless guy do?
Let's take the memory card and...
I will arrange the meeting, but I will decide the venue
Rishi Dev's private air field at Meenambakkam
There'll be no Police
Only I will be there with him
I know you are tracking this call
If anyone comes in search of us, this deal stands cancelled
Why are you asking for a meeting?
Eventually, they'll find out that you don't have any evidence
I am going to create the evidence only after going there
What are you saying?
I've planned this meeting only to separate the Police from Rishi Dev
I'm going to make him confess the murder he committed
I'll tell you what you need to do
He's not here
Would he be planning something?
Drop the gun!
Drop it
Listen to me
Go there
What are you trying to do?
How much money do you want?
Where would you like to own a house?
Go! Sit there
Hands behind you!
What did you do with the memory card?
What are you doing now?
The memory card got destroyed
But now, we're going to telecast a live interview with this camera
Look here, Sana
Let me call the Managing Director
All other channels are broadcasting this live feed
Cancel all programmes on our channels...
...and broadcast this
You are now seeing the well known Central Minister, Rishi Dev
But he is a murderer
Turn up the volume
- Who is this? - A Central minister
He killed actress Megha Sharma in her beach house...
...and covered it up saying it was a gas explosion
To stop that video expose from getting leaked...
...he framed false charges on Anamika Raghunath and Arjun Krishna
...and had the Police hunt for them
The memory card that had the footage got destroyed during that chase
But right here, right now...
...he is going to admit that he murdered her
The entire country is watching
What is the Tamil Nadu Police Department doing?
Tell us about the murder
Are you from the opposition party?
Or a terrorist?
What do you want?
You've abducted me...
...do you know what the jail time is?
Apart from the murder you committed...
...you would also not spare anybody who knew about it
An upright sub-inspector of Police, Arumugam...
...the CEO of Channel 24, Raghunath Kumar
...and my friend Raj, who succumbed to your money
...you had all of them murdered
I'm very sorry to hear about your friend's death
But, how could you hold me responsible for it?
What was his name again?
Was he your best friend?
The men who murdered him did it for you...
...because of your political power and financial power
But that won't work with me...
...and with the people watching this
Right now, I am the Court of Law...
...and people watching live are the witnesses
Out with the truth!
I've been involved in politics for the last twenty years
I've risen from the ranks
Do you think I have wealth amounting to millions?
I don't use the Government's money even for filling my car's fuel
You definitely need help
Listen!
You are not going to let me walk out of here alive
You've given orders to shoot me at sight
If you don't admit to the murders...
...I have no other choice but to finish you off
Will you get away scot-free...
...after killing a Central Minister?
Megha Sharma was pregnant with your child, wasn't she?
You didn't even spare that affectionate dog
You look like a college going kid...
...the gun doesn't suit you, kid
You think I won't shoot?
I've been holding the gun for a long time...
...did you see my hand tremble?
It's firm, isn't it?
You have time till I count up to three
You kidnapping me is not a very big offense
I can really get you out of this mess
Listen to me
What's with the counting?
How can I say I murdered someone when I didn't?
If I were to die now, I'd be celebrated as a national hero
Think of what will happen to you You're making a mistake
Who are you messing with?
Pregnant with my child?!
Yes, I killed Megha Sharma
Now what, you can screw me?!
The Police are here Will they arrest me?
Take him Beat him up
Don't let him go till we find that girl
Then kill them both and close the case saying they committed suicide
Look! Who is the criminal?
Yes, I killed Megha Sharma
The Police are here Will they arrest me?
Don't let him go till we find that girl
Then kill them both and close the case saying they committed suicide
Yes, I killed Megha Sharma
The Police are here Will they arrest me?
Don't let him go till we find that girl
Tell me
The camera is on with just one click
Lunch by the sea-side at a beach resort on the very second date!
I must clarify something
What is it?
I've never brought any other girl to a beach resort before
- Really? - Why are you surprised?
Do you think I regularly go out with girls to beach resorts?
No! I believe you
We're only on our second date yet, that's why...
We guys need only one dinner to get to know a girl
Just one dinner?
How?
You shouldn't keep the guy waiting...
...for more than twenty minutes outside the restaurant
Was I very late?
Not bad, you took only 15 minutes
What next?
The girl can be talkative...
...but she must also be slightly bothered about what the guy wants to say
I asked you about your birthday and your work...
Seems like I've passed quite a tough evaluation
Well, no!
You failed with rule number three
The girl can have couple of drinks over dinner
But not to the extent of getting sloshed!
Well, you were downing one drink after the other...
...and to top that, you wanted to have the booze your friend had gifted you
You even invited me over to your apartment
I was kidding
Anamika, will you marry me?
I'll marry you if you won't ask me to cook for you
Promise me you won't cook, and we can get married right away
