MAHALAKSHMI ELEMENTARY SCHOOL
[grinding]
Silence!
Continue!
[ringing]
-Old master... -Sir...
Didn't you hear I said silence?
I heard, but I thought you said to your class.
Very funny. Will you first ask him to stop grinding or not?
Ok sure. Hey stop!
-When did you lose it? -I left it after I milked it in morning.
It didn't come in the night, and not until now.
Govind note down.
-What type of buffalo is it? -It has horns and a dotted tail.
It has horns and a dotted tail, hmm!
-Does it has have a calf? -Yes!
It was screaming all the night.
It has a calf, it didn't come all the night and not until now.
So it didn't come to feed the calf until now.
Right! It will be in the cattle shed, go!
If you don't find it there, let me know.
Sure.
Silence! Silence!
Did you hear, a buffalo is gone missing from last morning.
it didn't come all night and until now.
But I told that it would be in the cattle-shed. How did I say?
On which logic did I say?
Come on you tell me?
You?
Next!
[scoffs] Govind, you give it a try!
Dumb-fellow! How would it strike your mind?
The buffalo a mammal, how would it stay without feeding for so long?
If it could, someone should have bound it.
If it was bound, where would it be? In the cattle-shed.
-Isn't it? -Yes but what if it was stolen?
Shut up! First you get up!
Thieves in the city where detective Raju stays? Impossible!
Either detective Raju must stay or the thieves in the city.
-Did any theft ever occur in our school? -No sir! [kids in unison]
Right! Govind note it down!
-Hey, did you find it? -No sir, my brother came from there.
Impossible! How did my estimation go wrong? Let's find it.
Hello old master, I'm going out, please take care of my class too. I'm going out.
-Ok sure. -Hmm... Right!
Govind, take out the beard No.6!
[kids laugh in unison]
Sir, the school situation is worsening day by day...
I know... I know everything. You will ruin the school.
Not exactly sir, your son-in-law Raju...
Yeah I know, he would ruin the school. Ok?
Yeah, now the public in the city do not want to send their children to the school.
Yeah, there's no point in telling me. Tell her that.
Did you hear what was he saying about your adorable son-in-law?
What happened?
Son-in-law will never be at the school, even if he is, he wouldn't take up classes
-Then what does he do? -You don't know?
He will always be in deep thinking closing his eyes.
He keeps shouting 'Thieves... catch them' and wakes up being startled at times.
Yes madam, he says he's a big detective.
He always keeps playing with kids. He doesn't teach them.
If this continues, we may have to shut down the school soon.
Oh, please don't do it.
Please appoint a new teacher in the place of Raju.
But I can't take the school being shut down.
It's the school named after my elder daughter, Mahalakshmi who went missing.
Why do you grieve? You may fall sick again.
I shall personally visit and arrange for a remedy. Ok?
Mom, how was sister? Was she mischievous like me?
No dear. She was a very good girl.
She would never utter a word.
She would eat only when fed, else never asked for it.
She never threw a tantrum for anything.
So I'm a bad girl and sister is a good girl for you. [sobs]
No dear, though naughty, you too are a good girl like sister.
[kids playing]
Sit down children!
Er...
Is this what you teach?
Yes sir, what do I do? I'm handling two classes at a time.
If I'm this class they are making noise and these are making noise when I'm there.
I know! But will you punish kids to stand for it?
I hired you as you are 30 years experienced. Is this how you teach?
Yes, I was taught like this by my teacher.
and I too am teaching like this.
Can we change the traditions today?
No. I know you wouldn't change.
That is why I'm hiring a new teacher. Things will sort out then. Ok?
A new teacher? I too am curious to know what does he teach!
Where did you go leaving the school? Uncle is very upset with you.
What do I do, he was in need, so I went to help him find his missing buffalo.
Why don't you find my sister instead of these buffaloes and sheep?
Ofcourse yes! You think I can't?
Come on Aunt, tell me what happened in order of occurrence.
16 years ago on the Mahalaya new moon day,
we went to Kakinada to take a bath in the sea.
There was a lot of crowd that year. An endless sea of people!
We asked Rami to take care of our baby and we to take bath.
Meanwhile baby asked for some toy.
Being dumb she left the baby and went for the toy.
By the time Rami brought the toy, the baby was not there.
-What was her age then? -4 years.
4 years! Any scars or wounds on the face?
Nothing at all. She looked like Goddess Lakshmi!
Looked like Goddess Lakshmi, note down!
Any moles on her body?
Yes, a coin sized mole on the big toe of the right foot.
Great, got enough clues!
Govinda, note down about the mole on the right foot.
Fine, did she wear any jewellery when she went missing?
Not many, but she had one chain with a tiger's claw as the dollar.
Enough Aunt, give me just 6 months, I shall find her.
Not just 6 months, take 6 years.
Please show her while I'm still alive.
Why do you worry aunt? Stay assured, I will find her for sure.
[greets in Urdu]
-Did Raju come? -Isn't it him going out?
-Raju! -Huh!
Do you know what am I going to do?
I know! That is why I have quit working at school.
Good! Do not go towards school premises either.
Give an advertisement in the daily immediately.
That two BA candidates with progressive thoughts are wanted.
Dad, please seek the one who knows music.
Hey Raju, they should know music too.
How would men teach music uncle? Women teach it excellently.
Then add a lady BA to it.
Dad, I'd then learn music from the lady teacher and English from the male teacher.
Good, you too should pursue BA.
Raju note down. The salary for male BA is Rs200 and Rs250 for the female.
Food and accommodation free.
-Uncle, an idea struck my mind! -What's it?
if they are a couple, we can save on the 2nd family and their expenses.
I know, I know this!
But can we find a couple who are qualified BA and moreover the ones who knows music?
Ofcourse we would find a lot.
These days we find a lot of BAs everywhere.
Forget it. Just give me a week's time.
Ok fine.
Note down, wanted a male and female BA candidate who know music.
Salary: Rs200 and Rs250 consecutively.
Food and accommodation free.
-Did you write? -Hmm!
Condition: They should be a couple.
Give our address below.
Mr AK Raju, private detective, Ex head master and present secretary
of Mahalakshmi Elementary school, Appapuram.
Aunt, I have another idea.
Can we reward the one who give information about Mahalakshmi with Rs2000?
Why just Rs2000, make it Rs3000.
Govind, write this advertisement too.
Rs3000 reward for any information on missing girl, 16 years ago...
On the shores of Kakinada sea, on Mahalaya new moon day, girl's name Mahalakshmi.
Girl's age was 4 years when she went missing.
Identification marks: wheatish complexion, good-looking
a tiger claw dollar in the neck, a coin sized mole on the right foot.

Good morning miss Mary.
I got transferred from here, we are leaving tomorrow.
Tomorrow?
No other choice! It's government job after all.
Do you teach just here or anywhere else too?
No other place sir, this is my only means.
Is it? There's a vacancy in my friend's company. Would you be interested?
-Why not? You please refer me there. -Ok.
-Take this. -Thanks!
Your daughter has a lovely voice. Please don't discontinue music.
-Sure. -Good bye!
Good morning!
Mohan! Good morning sir.
-Isn't Mohan home? -He's inside.
Look Mr Rao, I'm sorry to say. I got transferred suddenly.
Please take your salary due.
True, your transfer are inevitable and so is our new job hunt too.
Do me a favour, give me a recommendation letter if you have any references.
Sure, one of friends, he has some vacancies, I shall recommend.
Thanks, Mohan study well my boy.
-Good morning. -Good morning.
-You came so soon? -I didn't come, they sent me off.
-Did he give you any reference letter? -No I didn't ask for it.
As though they would give even if asked for it. I asked, but they didn't give.
-Where to? -Home, Adayar
Then why did you stand here? You bus stand is on the other side. Isn't it?
My friend is in General Hospital. I'm going to visit her. Where are you going?
-Mylapore. -Then why did you stand here?
-I'm going to China Bazar to buy medicines -Oh!
Just one seat available!
-My friends isn't well at all. -My granny is a very critical condition.
I need to take the medicines immediately. You decide is a friend important or granny
-Get in fast! -I'm sorry, bye!
-Good morning! -Good morning!
You came here, how about your granny's medicine?
Old age! Will she live even if I give medicines, so I gave up my hopes.
How about your friend?
Me too! Will she stay alive if I visit her? So I too gave up my hopes.
[chuckles]
[clears throat] Please be seated.
I'm not sleeping, I'm preparing a plan to solve the unemployment problem.
Will you have coffee or water?
-No thanks. -Boy, go get some water.
Please sit, I'm neither your boss yet nor you're my subordinate.
How odd does it be if I deny a reference my friend has given?
-What say? -Yes!
These jobs have to be given to someone eventually. Will I do them?
-Have some water. -No thanks.
What are your thoughts about the unemployment problem these days.
It's terrible!
So to provide employment atleast to a few, I want to expand my business. What say?
Very nice thought.
But, there are no vacancies as of now. Please visit after 6 months.
-I hope you will come without fail. -Yeah, if I am alive until then.
Boy!
-Good morning sir! -Good morning.
-Would you like to have coffee or water? -No thanks!
Hey get some water.
The unemployment problem these days is very disheartening. What say?
Yeah true!
Then Government shouldn't be establishing new universities and colleges...
and increase the number of the unemployed say a few.
-Yes! -That's your mistake!
When the going gets tough, the tough get going.
Education shouldn't stop because of lack of employment.
Education is a must across all genders.
So we have to seek ways to overcome this problem.
Yeah, I have a nice plan to solve this problem. Shall I tell you?
-Tell me. -Have some water.
No thanks!
I say men and women who have properties shouldn't compete for jobs.
Won't that reduce the the unemployment by 25%?
Yes!
Also, those with a job, either male or female shouldn't marry the one with a job.
-Doesn't it reduce the problem by 50%? -Yes!
Now the poor are left.
These instead of competing for jobs, they better compete to marry the riches.
With that it reduces the problem by 75%.
Now we have left out with 25% These people will find jobs without competition.
-How is my plan? -Very good.
You understood my plan very well.
You now better search for a man who has either money or a job and get married.
-Have some water. -Thanks!
Please don't forget about my advice.
-Are you married? -Not yet!
-Will you marry me then? -[chuckles]
-Idiot! -[groans]
My God!
Good morning! Good morning! Mary...
-Ma... -She's not home.
She's been to tuition, please sit she'd come.
-Please get some coffee for David. -Thanks!
I feel shy to tell you something.
Even I feel ashamed, it's been 6 months since we borrowed money
-and we are unable to repay you. -I didn't mean that.
Don't we know that, we owe you. As waited for this long, wait for another 2 months.
Mary is on a job search. If she gets one, she will repay you in a monthly basis.
No no! I didn't come for the money.
I came for something else. Mary... Our Mary!
I love Mary a lot. I gave up a lot of alliances just for her.
100s and 1000s. You have to convince her somehow. Please!
What can I tell her? Did you speak to her?
-I did. -What did she say?
She says nothing. Neither a yes nor a no.
If you say that you are ok with this, I hope she will accept it. Please!
David, we do not want to interfere in her wedding.
Mary would marry whom ever she likes. We wouldn't deny her wish.
-We don't mind you trying your luck. -Ofcourse!
Good morning Mary. Please!
Mary Please!
Mary... Mary... Mary!
Insult! Did you see that?
-I saw, you shouldn't be hasty. -What?
Hasty? I have been waiting since 6 months!
I won't wait any more!
Decide whether you would convince Mary to marry me or pay my money! That's all.
We can't convince her for wedding. And I already told you about the money.
-We shall repay over time. -No no!
I shall complain in the court, get a confiscation warrant, auction your assets.
Dad, why do we need this fuss now? We shall sell this and repay him.
Oh excuse me Mary! Don't get angry. I just slipped my tongue.
I got carried away with evil thoughts! I'm a fool, fool!
I don't need money, I'll give you some more if you want.
I don't need money or anything. I will give your money back, get out!
Ok, you are very hot now. Excuse me, I'll meet you again. Good bye!
Good bye! See you!
For how many more days should we bear his nuisance?
-We shall sell this and repay him. -No dear, please don't sell this.
The very fortunate moment we got this, our lives have lightened up!
Lord has blessed you to us!
Dad, I never understand what you say and your ways too.
Why do we need Hindu Gods on the jewellery of the Christians?
Insane Gods and Insane religion!
Never abuse other religions dear. We too had a similar thought earlier.
When Lord blessed you to us, we realised what actually does religion mean?
Just like how all the rivers in the world, flow and meet in an ocean.
Similarly, all the religions in the world are meant for the devotee meet their God.

How mean! He gave a worthless penny and deceived.
A blind man is always looked low in this world.
I'm a blind man, please give alms sir!
-Are you blind from birth? -No sir I lost recently.
Here...
Please give sir.
-I did! -It's a sin to cheat a blind man.
Isn't it a sin to cheat kind people?
Let me see, which kind of blindness is yours.
I'm a blind man sir!
[percussion]
They found a smart way!
You are nothing less compared to them!
I am nothing, these days people only give donations but not for beggars.
Once upon a time, they used to call and give alms for holy reward.
But today, though we are after them, there are none to give.
Yeah true, times have changed! Yet, you are far better than me.
Pursing a BA degree, I can neither be like them nor like you.
-You don't have a job? -No!
Look, having a degree alone won't do these days. You should also have skill.
Yes, can't agree more!
How much money are you making?
Not much, this business doesn't need any investment.
Though I do not have much profits, after my expenses I'll save about Rs 5 to 10.
-Why don't you do this? -What?
Collect donations saying you'd provide drinking water on the way to pilgrimages
You'll have enough money and work to do through out the year.
-Yeah, I found one! -What's it sir?
Wanted a tutor for Mahalakshmi Elementary school...
-It's gone! -You found and lost it too?
They want a couple. It won't work for me.
May be that's why they say, wife brings luck.
Who will marry me? Moreover a BA graduate?
-Good evening! -Good evening!
Madam, I'm a blind man, please give me alms.
Go away, you wouldn't get any here.
Please be seated.
I'm sorry, I had to lie to save my job.
It went vain, he first lured and finally told the bitter news.
I had to take a glass of water with that effect and come out of there.
He's a rogue, I made him drink water and came out.
Well done! I now want to lead a truthful life.
There's an ad in this, are you a BA graduate?
-From Queen Mary! -It doesn't matter.
This isn't of any use to me. Please check if you need.
They seem to be so old schooled. Why should a lady teacher be married?
For that matter, why should even a male teacher be married?
I have an idea, can I share?
Sure.
Please don't mind. If you are in love with any BA grad, marry him immediately.
You both would get the job at one shot.
Thanks for the idea, I am in plans of getting married.
-She seems to be proud! -Not proud, just stubborn!
-Ah! I have another idea. -What's it?
Better than you drinking water plan, please follow her and find her address.
What would you give me then?
If our plan works out, I shall give you your share. Come on go!
Watch out!
Mary! Mercy... Compassion... Grace!
Else I will die at your feet! Mary please look!
What's this nuisance in the public park? This isn't appropriate.
Come, we'll talk sitting on this bench.
I'm a blind man,please show mercy!
-Mary please! -Mercy please!
-Please! -Please... Oh you bad!
Take this!
Mary please come we'll talk sitting on the bench!
I won't talk to you! I'll call the cops, if you wouldn't leave.
Call them! I don't fear because I'm desperate.
"I won't leave you, I will have you!"
Please marry me! Mary please!
I'm a blind man, please show mercy!
Mary please! Madam please!
-Please! -Please... Oh you bloody!
-It's ok you be seated. -It's ok you be seated.
-Look mister, -MT Rao!
-You are mister MT? -You tell us the justice, simple justice.
I loved this girl and I spent a lot of money for her education and her family.
-Until yesterday, she love me... -It's a lie!
I never loved him, nor wil I ever! He's a rascal and a thief.
Yes I'm a thief, But for whom did I become one?For you and your love!
Whom did I give the money I robbed? To you isn' it? MrMT you tell me justice.
Simple justice! Ask her to decide whether she would marry me or repay my money.
I would never ever marry you!
Tell him, I shall repay his money within 2 months.
No no, Mr Rao! If she couldn't repay until now, how would she repay in 2 months?
Moreover, I don't need money. Please ask her to marry me. Please!
-I'm a blind man, please give alms! -Rascal, you turned up here too?
-Go away! You please tell her. -Alms please!
-Mr Rao please! -Alms please!
-Please please! -Please please!
Take it!
-Please hold on. Please listen to me. -What? I already said I wouldn't marry.
-Then ask her to pay my money immediately. -I don't have!
-Then marry me. -I won't!
-You have to! -I won't!
-That's it? -Yes!
-Please calm down, will you listen to me? -Yes!
-How about you? -Please tell.
-Will you repay in two months as promised? -I will.
-Mister... -IP David
Look Mr David, you anyhow waited for this long, can't you wait for 2 more months?
No Mr MT, I don't believe she would repay. Can you be the surety?
Very funny, how would I be the surety?
Isn't she telling, please wait for these 2 months too.
In case if she can't she wouldn't disappear, you can then ask her.
Alright, I would wait, as a gentleman like you is telling. Good bye!
Oh! Sorry!
-I'm a blind man, please give alms sir. -Rascal, scoundrel, idiot, fool!
-You made my pockets nil! -Why do you scold?
Give if you have in your pocket else don't!
You evil man!
-How much do you have to pay him? -Rs 400.
But how did you say you would repay him 2 months?
Even I don't understand it. I have to repay to keep up my name.
I have an idea. If we follow it,you can repay in 2 months
and I too would get a job.
Later, you can continue if you would like to, else quit it.
-Shall I tell? -Yes.
Do you agree that we shouldn't come to a conclusion in hasty?
Yes!
Look, I am in a critical financial condition.
I cannot lead my life unless I get a job.
-You too feel the same? -What are you talking?
No, I'm sorry. I'm telling for a livelihood.
What if we play roles, for a job?
-Play roles? -Yes.
Just like how they act on the stage, for this job...
-For this job... Er... -Come on speak out!
I will tell, but you please don't answer hastily. Please think and answer.
What if we both apply like a couple for this job?
Rascal! You all men are alike!
There you see! You are hasty. I already told you
Please think about it, I'll be right here, this is my address.
Thanks!
This won't work out sir, my drinking water idea is perfect.
You don't know, my idea worked out.
I know about women very well.
Their yes means no and their no means yes.
Wow, it sounds great!
Come on sing!
"Their yes means no and their no means yes."
"The words of women have different meanings."
"Have different meanings... Have different meanings"
"If they sulk and move aside,"
"If they sulk and move aside, they want you to come and converse"
"If they call you keenly,"
"If they call you keenly, they want you to go away from there"
"The words of women have different meanings."
"Have different meanings... Have different meanings"
"If they get irritated and scold you,"
"If they get irritated and scold, they are actually interested in it"
"If they inquire about you details,"
"If they inquire about details, they want you to stop talking about it"
"The words of women have different meanings."
"Have different meanings... Have different meanings"
"Their yes means no and their no means yes."
"The words of women have different meanings."
"Have different meanings... Have different meanings"
Why do have to blame him? It's my mistake.
Had I not taken money from him, this wouldn't have happened at all.
Leave it dad, past is past.
There's no point pondering about it now. We shall repay him someway or the other.
I have seen a vacancy for a school teacher in the news paper today.
They'd pay Rs 250 salary. I was skeptical as it is far by.
But after a thought, I feel it's better I go there.
What do you say mom?
We have never been away from you since the day you have been blessed to us.
How do we stay dear?
Just a matter of 2 months. Only then we can repay his money.
Later we can go as life takes us!
We wouldn't be answerable to anyone. Dad you please convince mom.
Sure dear, we never denied your wish.
[clock ringing]
-Hey! -I'm a blind man, please give alms!
I know your trick! Where is he?
Oh you? Please sit down, he went to typewriter. I'll call him.
-Good morning! -Good morning! Please sit.
I gave it a thought all through the night.
Your idea seems good.
Ofcourse, the world would seize without an idea.
If idea didn't strike the mind of your God Jesus, the world wouldn't have existed.
Looks like you read Bible.
Not just Bible alone, I read all Quran, mythology and Vedas.
See, we both do not know each other.
Do you have to even mention this?
The moment I saw you I realised you are woman of self respect and manners.
-Isn't it? -Yes!
Do you agree that I'm a man of respect and honour?
Of course yes. But...
I've been deceived by many in my life.
But not by me. Will you see my conduct certificate?
Not required, but my heart says...
You shouldn't listen to your heart, you should follow your mind in such decisions.
-Isn't it? -Yes!
That is why though I do not like, for these two months somehow...
-I'll manage to be your... -I understood. You need not tell.
In fact you are superior, your salary is greater than mine.
Then fill in the application! I shall sign.
But did you grasp what I meant to say?
Oh yes! You can stay assured in that matter. I shall promise in your church.
You believe in church too?
Not just church, I believe in mosque, temple, and everything else too
You might believe, but I don't. I believe only in our Jesus.
Very good. Please sign.
We must be just like friends from now on.
Ok. Either in written or oral, only as required to save the job...
I shall behave like your husband and not beyond...
Please don't continue, I feel shy.
-You came well-prepared? -Yeah!
Mrs MT Rao.
Come on, give me your share of postage expenses.
I follow pure business rules. Everyone takes their own individual share of profit
If you come home, I shall introduce you to my father.
-But do not tell him about this... -Am I that stupid?
I'll tell that we do different jobs.
Hey, please post this letter.
Why do you need these silly jobs? Come to the beach in the evening.
We'll have our musical concert there, that would be profitable than this.
-Hey! -You've got a great friend! Come!
Sir, reach home early! I'll make a round and return.
Raju, did we receive any applications?
Yes, we got one.
-Are they a couple? -Yes!
Good, ask them to start immediately.
They seem to be young, I doubt if they have experience.
Raju, I know you would shut the school down.
Why do we need experience when they are educated? We need BA graduates.
Send a telegram immediately saying 'President very glad, come soon.'
Look, send Rs100 money order too, they might not have money for the rail tickets.
Right!
Sir, did you receive any letters on the name of MT Rao, C/O Postmaster?
-Let me check! -Ok!

Please give a paise to the saint sir.
Get lost! You seem to be fit why don't work hard for your living?
Why do you lecture when asked for alms? We too know it!
-Oh it was you? -Yeah,me!
-You too come along with us. -I won't.
-You don't want to work as a server? -No!
-Why? -What's the fun in it?
Oh then you find honour only in begging?
I might not have honour but I have fun and satisfaction.
I fool great people everyday saying I'm blind and handicapped.
How will I get such fun and the income form this job?
You won't. If you cheat public like this you think will government stay calm?
What would it do?
It brought the beggars law. Police will soon throw you in a beggar's colony.
-Sir, is this true? -Yes!
Then I too would come along with you.
Ok, you better show your talent on them there and not us.
Oh yes!
Get Mary to the station evening.
Dear, I'll go to the station. Send Ravamma to the guest house and arrange for lunch.
Ok.
-Garlands? -There they are!
-My walking stick? -There!
Oh, let's go!
What's all this?
-Aren't you MT Rao? -No, it not me. You've mistaken.
What's this?
[whistle blows]
[train revives, blows horn]
-Are you Mr MT Rao? -Yes sir.
-Didn't your wife come? -Why not? Here she is.
-Please sit. -You get in.
-Not beside her. -It's ok, you are like my pastor.
-What? -She meant you're like her father.
Oh is it? Ok.
Son-in-law, she reminded me of my elder daughter who went missing.
-Your daughter went missing? -Yes son-in-law.
She went missing 16years ago on the day of Mahalaya new moon day in Kakinada.
This school was built on her name.
Now our only worry is about that school.
You can stay assured regarding the school. We'll work at our best and flourish it.
-Very happy. What do you say dear? -He said it already.
I now feel peaceful.
-What is your father's name dear? -Paul!
-Paul? -She meant, Gopalam! Anaparthi Gopalam!
Wow, it's my name too. We are very close now.
-Aah your caste? -Frankly, they are not very particular.
They lived in Rangoon for long time. They had wood and rice mills businesses.
It's a farce! Nothing!
Yeah, they don't have any now. They lost everything in Burma war.
Alas! They have suffered a lot.
Son-in-law, your dad's name?
Koka Rajaram Naidu.
Oh are you a Naidu? Then why have you have such a name?
Frankly, I believe in neither castes nor religions.
Great, me too! I got a perfect tutor!
-Namasthe sir. -Namasthe!
Mr AK Raju, private detective, Ex head master and present secretary
of Mahalakshmi elementary school, Appapuram.
[chuckles] Nothing as such! He's just my nephew.
Raju, take their luggage to the guest house.
Dear, these are BA tutors.
I also started calling them by relation. They are like our daughter and son-in-law.
Hmm? Come dear! Come!
Take your seat, son-in-law.
I already told them that you are very fond of school.
Yes dear, school means everything to me.
Please tell son-in-law too.
Though she's educated, look how shyful the girl is.
Yes, shy is the only ornament of women, that's why he didn't buy her any jewelry.
They are very old school. Who wears jewellery these days?
She looks great even without jewellery.
Why didn't you put bindi? Bucchamma get me the vermilion.
-You didn't get your kids? -We don't yet...
Oh God didn't bless you yet. Why do you worry? There's a temple nearby...
if you go and pray there, by next year... Why are eyes moist?
Nothing, some ash fell in her eyes...
No ash nothing, I have a severe headache. I need to take a shower first.
Have it here...
We are anyhow heading to our guest house, she would have there.
Just wait...
-She'll put after her bath. Bye sir! -Bye!
Don't they look cute together?
Dear, she reminds me of our Mahalakshmi.
I too felt the same. Do you know she even called me 'Father'?
-Father means? -Dad! Her dad's name is also Gopalam.
-Aah? -Yes!
This is the bedroom.
-Only one bed? -Yes!
This is double bed, we wanted a couple to save on expenses.
Come on.
Appanna, keep the luggage inside.
This is the kitchen.
-Ramamma, did you make hot water ready? -Yes sir.
Everything should be ready by the time they are here.
Hey, where did the tutor work earlier?
Don't call him just a tutor, give some respect.
He is greater than you.
He owns half of the plots in Madras.
Park, Beach, High court many to mention!
Oh, then why did he come to work here?
-There is the twist! -Huh?
-What is it? -How can I tell such a secret so simply?
-Give me some fuel! -Fuel?
You don't know what is fuel?
Oh... Fuel!
You started your collections here too?
Very habituated to, its tough to give up.
Look, you do not give him anything and don't believe his words.
Ok, sure. He told everything about you.
What did I tell? Not even a tiny bit.
I'll tell you the remaining tomorrow. You please go.
Hot water is ready, you please come sir.
I need to talk to you, can you give me 5 minutes.
Water is getting colder, will you come sir?
See you again.
You are exactly 20 years old, aren't you?
Yes!
-Do you have parents? -Hmm!
Hmm, are you their own child or an adopted one?
-What are these dumb questions? -I'm sorry!
I'm asking for your sake. If you are MahaLakshmi, who went missing...
You would get half the property, I will save half of my effort. Look at this ad.
-What's all this? -Nothing.
Are you still here, didn't I ask you to leave then?
-Please! -We are leaving.
-Thank you very much. -Please go.
You too please go.
Why have you come back so soon? Did they fresh up have their lunch?
They should have done by now.
Should have? What's that?
New people at a new place! You brought back Ramamma too?
What do I uncle? They are just pushing us out and locking the doors.
Aah, I got this! Ok fine, you leave.
Did you hear that? They sent away Ramamma too.
[chuckles]
What a weird family! The old man is orthodox and his son-in-law is irksome.
I'm not sure how we would survive here.
There's only one solution. Just ignore their words and actions.
Very funny! How do I tolerate their bindi, Kohl etc traditions?
You have to tolerate for these two months atleast.
Else we shall land in trouble.
Bindi is very important in Hindu religion.
They may find it suspicious if you don't have it.
But how do I? I don't know how to put it.
Get used to. It's not any rocket science.
Fine, going forward please do not tell them anything about me without my consent.
I too wouldn't tell about you, without your consent.
Ok, you please go and sleep. You should be tired with journey.
Thanks!
-One more thing, -What's it?
-The Cross! -Oh! Thanks!
-Good night! -Good night!
[door knock]
-What? -Sorry, the beds got exchanged!
-Good night! -Good night!
[hiccups]
Devayya!
[hiccups]
[door knock]
[hiccups]
-Good night! -Good... [hiccups]
[hiccups]
Devayya!
-[hiccups] -Oh!
Why did you lock the door? Who would abduct you?
-Just to be safe! -Is it?
-Good night! -Good night!
-Namasthe. -Namasthe.
Namasthe, please sit.
Son, today is our MahaLakshmi's birthday.
I hand you over the school established on my daughter's name from today.
This is your school. You have to take care of it.
Ok sir, we shall work hard and develop the school.
-Clerk, please show him his class. -Sure.
-See you. -See you.
Raju go and announce in the neighbouring villages...
that we have hired two new BA tutors from Madras.
Oh yes!
-Sir... -You please come madam!
Please sit down.
Take out your text books.
Till which lesson have you been taught?
Nothing at all sir.
It's almost two months since the schools have been reopened. Nothing taught yet?
No sir, that's why they have called you.
I'm done! Oh God! Sir, please!
-Remove your hand! -Please sir no!
-Hit me tomorrow. -Can I control my anger till tomorrow?
Oh God no! No!
-Stop it, what's this? -You know nothing.
-He doesn't know a single lesson. -How would I know unless you teach?
You always make me grind the medicine.
If you grind medicine here, what do you do at home?
Look at him, he's troubling me since an hour escaping from me.
-Hey, let me hit you once. -Do you think this a school or something?
Should I quit preparing medicines and not hit children?
He comes new here and teaches me the ways.
Get it along, I shall sort this out.
What's this? Why are here at this odd hour?
I have been grinding the medicine from a month, as madam wanted it.
He comes today and says I shouldn't grind at the school and asks me to throw it away
I can't do it. I can even give up the school but not my medicinal practice.
Very good, You quit the school and continue your practice.
-Ah? Should I give up teaching? -Undoubtedly!
Er... Come let's go!
Hey, you can English too?
I just look at the pictures.
Oh only pictures!
-Is your madam from Madras? -You can take it!
-Is she born to them or adopted? -Take it as adopted.
Does she has a mole on the right foot?
Yes, a huge as a melon.
A melon? Is that an elephant foot? Tell it properly.
Ok say as small as a grain.
You are just impossible man!
-Tell me when is your mom married? -Huh?
-Sorry I meant Ma'am! -Why do you need other's secrets?
Oh a secret? What is it?
Should I be a traitor and spill his beans for free?
Why for free? Here's the fuel!
Note it down.
Sir and madam studied at the same college?
They both used to stare at each other.
Their lecturer saw both of them, and all the students saw the lecturer.
They saw him, he saw them... he saw these two...
That's ok, tell me who saw whom first?
They both are actually fighting to clear it out.
Madam says he first saw her, he says she first saw him.
Both claiming each other, saying you... you, you... you!
Argh! Tell me when they got married?
This isn't sufficient,give me some more.
-Fuel is it? -Hmm!
Come on tell me!
Both of them started visiting each other's house when not seen.
They both used to go the beach from there.
To cinema from beach and then to park and then to cinema and then to beach...
Argh! First tell me when they got married?
Oh, this was not a matter of one day, it went on for 3 years.
It's not easy to put it in three words. Give me some more!
-I don't have I'll give tomorrow. -I'll tell tomorrow.
Ah, will I run away? I said I'll give tomorrow.
Will, I run away? I said I'll tell tomorrow.
[bell ringing]
The school is done. You may now leave.
Join her in your class from tomorrow.
-Namasthe -Namasthe, my daughter Sita Lakshmi.
Sir, Today is my sister's birthday, my mom asked sister to come home.
Take her.
My Mahalakshmi turns 20 today.
It's been 16 years since she went missing. Not sure where and how she is.
Please drape this saree, I will feel you as my daughter herself.
Why do you have to fear? He asked some random questions.
I too cooked up some story and made his pockets nil.
Well done!
Don't you do such things again luring for money.
Who doesn't get lured for money?
Don't you have? Tell me how much chilly powder should I add?
Chilly powder... 20grams!
I don't have any measuring scale. Give me two coins.
Put some Chilly powder.
Some more!
-Salt? -Salt... 40 grams.
Give me 2 more coins.
No, do it twice with those coins.
The measurement should be accurate. She should stay here after tasting our food.
Hey, you don't smart in front of her.
Devayya!
-Did you look at my attire? How do I look? -Very good.
Looks like you celebrated your birthday not her. You look like Goddess Lakshmi.
Not like Lakshmi but Shakthi!
Why do we need this turmeric, vermilion and the sandal paste? Silly traditions!
Don't say that, that's the beauty of our religion.
They mixed the healthy rules with the traditions.
Turmeric for instance, is antibacterial also enhances beauty better than powder
And Bindi to distract the evil, beautiful women like you must put a bindi.
Stop it, you too are flattering me!
Please come for dinner.
Come let's have dinner.
I'm not hungry, you please have it.
No, you shouldn't skip meals. Food is God's personification.
Yes sir, Individual soul, Supreme soul, Physical being! Everything needs to be fed
You too got into philosophy!
We are born, grew up and will even die in philosophy.
Enough! Why will you die in philosophy? First serve ghee.
Please taste today's food.
Hmm, looks good.
We cooked it, you wouldn't forget in this life once you eat it.
Hmm?
[screams] Argh! So spicy!
-Leave it, taste this. -Enough! Serve there.
Argh! So salty!
How would I know sir? I've added the way you told to.
Did you check the book properly?
-I read and told you the same. -Then measurements might have gone wrong.
You were stingy to give coins.
Oh no, so you cooked with measuring?
Are any vegetables left out or you used all of them?
-They are there. -Ok, then I shall cook.
-Namasthe sir. -Namasthe.
Son-in-law you both should come to our house for dinner.
-We have a lot of work at home. -You can do them tomorrow.
Please come, Sita is eager to show her dance to you.
If you don't come, she wouldn't eat.
Ok, we would come sir.
I have seen a lot but not an ideal couple like you.
When I invited them today, they didn't say yes until they both discussed twice.
You are saying out of love, we not as ideal as you thought.
Why aren't you eating dear?
A thorn pricked her finger. Please give her a spoon.
A thorn? How did it happen?
She likes roses, it pricked while she tried to pluck them.
Son-in-law, you aren't taking proper care of my daughter.
Where were you and the server?
-Dear, she is from a rich family. -Ah?
Even he is nothing less!
People's park, High court, beach...
Once upon a time they were mine, now Government has taken over.
By the way, who told you this?
Why should a detective learn from someone else? I inquired.
I shall tell all your minute details in 4 days. Yeah!
Son-in-law,don't you dare to leave anything in plate. She may have to eat it.
It hardly suffices for me, how would anything be left for her?
What did you say? Come one serve him!
-Hmm! Serve him! Come on! -Enough sir.
-Some more, put everything! -Enough sir.
Well done uncle!
I'll take your leave now. Bye!
Would you not watch the dance?
-Not my cup of tea! Bye! Goodnight! -Goodnight!
Be seated!
Give these betle leaves to your husband.
She hurt her finger, I will do it myself.

[applaud]
Very nice, where did she learn?
At home, taught by a tutor!
Sister, how was it?
Dance is good, but the song isn't.
Why don't you teach her some good songs then? She can dance for any song.
Sure, please send her from tomorrow.
Sir,where is sister?
She's inside!
-Sit she would come. Do want some coffee? -No thanks!
I just had curd rice.
Sir, how is this necklace? We ordered it from Bombay.
Good.
-Sir, how do you like these earrings? -Very good.
-How about this half saree? -Half saree...
I don't know, ask your sister.
-Please tell me. -Not bad, get up from there.
Why should I get up, isn't this our sofa?
Ofcourse yours! Not just this sofa, this house and we too!
-Come on get up! -Then, I won't!
Fine, come and learn the song. Get up!
See sir, even my mom never beat me.
What if your mom didn't, a teacher can! Go and learn the lesson.

-How do you like it? -I didn't like it at all.
She always says like that, but I liked it a lot.
If you liked it so well, learn it from him from tomorrow.
Oh yes! Sister, my mom invited you two for dinner tonight.
We have to go to school today.
But today is Saturday! Why do you have to go?
Then, we aren't hungry today.
I don't know. Mom asked me to tell you, you come if you like to else don't.
I'm going!
When the elderly couple are inviting with so much love,what do we lose by going?
What do you understand my problem? Haven't you seen last night?
Those relationships and affection! I feel ashamed.
Why do we need this? Looks like someone is making them do this deliberately.
Do you mean, am I making them do this?
Yes, didn't you call him uncle first when we came here?
Else why would they do this? How are they related to me?
You are insulting me, I do not have such bad intention.
As we thought earlier, please stay for 2 months and go away with your salary.
Later, I will manage somehow!
You do as you like, but I'm not coming to their house.
Why have you come alone? Where's she?
Ah, she's not well.
Huh? How could you leave her alone in that state and come here?
I thought you'd be waiting for us. So came to inform you.
Stop it, you go home, I shall get the doctor there.
Go, go away! Hey dear...
Sorry, a mistake happened!
Everything you do is a mistake. Tell me what it is.
As you denied to, I went for dinner all alone.
They asked me why haven't you come. I said you are not well.
The old man got angry over that, saying how could you leave her alone...
He asked me to rush back and that he would get the doctor.
You should save my honour.
Should I act ill, for your honour?
If not for my honour, atleast for the sake of my job.
Now which illness should I lie as?
The one you wish, I haven't told any particular name with them.
Very funny!
Son-in-law...
Dear, doctor is here.
Dear, what is your problem? Please tell.
Tell dear!
It's ok is she can't.
Oh, You think I can't make out if you don't tell?
I gave medicines to the knees too. I could make out you see!
This is rheumatism! People affected by this will sleep mum like this.
Nothing to worry, I'll give one anti rheumatic pill. By morning she'll be fine
I do not have any rheumatism or madness. Get out!
Oh there's some madness too.
1/4th madness and 3/4th rheumatism!
If she takes a mix of anti-rheumatic pill 3/4th and anti-madness of 1/4th in honey,
Not in honey, mix in poison and you have it, I don't need your medicines.
Mistake! 1/4th rheumatism and 3/4th madness!
I would anyhow give a super medicine for this.
What madness? Do you have it or its me? Get out!
My God!
Yeah, I could make out the actual issue.
This is neither rheumatism nor madness. Evil spirit!
Evil Spirit? Not on me, its on you! I shall send it away!
No spirit nothing! Please go away!
I didn't lie, I said according to the symptoms I saw.
[shouts]
-Hey -Sir!
Go and get lemons and a bottle!
What so happened had happened. Please close your eyes and relax they'll go away.
You asked me to close my ears earlier, now asking me to close my eyes!
[recites hymns]
[continues to recite hymns]
[screams]
Did you hear that? Send them away! Else I shall spit the truth!
-Hmm send them away! -Ok sure.
[recites hymns]
Enough please go away!
Sir this isn't Hindu spirit,
it's a Christian spirit, she got hold of her right from college days.
Our hymns won't work for her.
How can we stay clam if they don't work? We should keep trying.
That's why give me a chance!
[recites hymns]
Come come!
[recites hymns]
Come come!
What's this nuisance? Didn't I tell you to send them away?
Sending them!
Why do say so? We aren't outsiders to go away.
You all are outsiders, in fact I have none who are mine.
Yeah, that's the matter. Come on speak out!
Hey... Er... Wait man! What are you doing?
Please tell me dear, who are you? What do you want? We'll give you everything.
-Please spare our girl. -I'm not your girl at all.
Yeah, then who are you?
-Someone, just let her go! -You hold on, I'll tell him.
My name is Miss Mary, I'm a Christian and I'm not yet married.
Yeah true!
Very Good, then get married now.
-I won't. -Doesn't get another girl, if you deny?
We shall get him married to my daughter, if it requires.
Yeah please do. Get him married to two if not just one. I wouldn't mind.
I came here to work at the school. I go at 10 and come back at 5.
But I would neither come to your house nor eat your food.
-Ok dear. -There, I just told I ain't your dear.
Just call me Miss Mary or Missamma from now on, that's all.
"Show me mercy, oh Mother Mary"
"You are my saviour, Mother Mary"

"You are my only saviour, oh Mother Mary"
Argh, I think the spirit is gone. Nothing to worry.
She will be normal from tomorrow. You may go now.
-Is it? -Yes!
Govind don't you find resemblances between our teacher and MahaLakshmi?
-No! -Govind... you are so dumb-witted.
Look at those eyes, nose,lips... huh?
-Yeah! -Right!
We shall get it clarified it tonight.
Come, let's have dinner.
I'm not hungry, you please have it.
Why don't you feel hungry? You haven't eaten anything in the afternoon too.
-Why are you sulking? -No, I'm not!
I wouldn't have brought you here if I knew you are this adamant.
I wouldn't have come, if I knew you are a cheater.
-Am I a cheater? -Am I adamant?
No, it's me. Why we have to argue?
Devayya, you have your dinner.
Why are you sulking?
Who cares even if I do. I'm sulking at myself.
Very funny! You are competing with women in sulking. Come!
-Serve there! -Serve there!
Devayya...
-You please be seated. -Thanks!
Devayya, how is your madam feeling now?
She is now recovered. She sent me to convey the same to you.
Ok, you may go now.
Dear, why don't you go for your tuition?
No mom, I feel scared.
Why do you get sacred? Sir will also be right there.
-If not her, go to the sir. -Ok mom.
Oh!
-What Sita? -[startled]
-You came for tuition is it? -Yes sir.
Your sister is there, go learn from her.
Argh! I don't want her, I want you to teach.
I have to go out on a work.
-No, you have to teach me. -Sita, I told you, I need to go.
I don't care, but please teach me sir.
Sir, please teach!
-What is it Sita? -Argh!
Isn't he telling that he has some work? I will take your class.
Sir!
-Why do you stare as though I am a devil? -Look at her.
-Why do you get scared? -Scared? But why?
-Come! -Sir... Please!
Sir... Sir...
Leave her, she is getting scared. You go home.
I am scared, you too come along with me.
Ok, I will go to school from there, see you there.
Come!
Devayya...
Give it to your sir.
-Is she furious? -Like a fire!
Oh, then there would be big fight tonight. Ah, make sure she eats and sleeps early.
Also you better keep the kitchen door open.
-Good morning sir. -Good morning!
Hey, you told that your sir and madam love each other a lot.
But why were they fighting?
Why do have to interfere between a couple? They fight in morning and talk at night.
But these are fighting in the nights?
Yeah, that's the specialty of BAs. They fight in the night and talk in the morning
Looks weird! Yeah come on tell me more.
Keep it sir, why do I need money to say universal truths.
-Listen... -Yeah...
Madam was not at will to come here at all.
Sir brought her here forcibly. Since then they both are fighting.
Not in good terms at all.
Separated their beds and luggage too. Will this do?
Is it?
[clock ringing]
For how long will you wait for him? You please have dinner and sleep.
What did he tell you?
He didn't say anything verbally, but looked like he might not come here tonight
Why? Why doesn't he come? Where else can he eat and sleep?
Er... Frankly, he is getting scared of you.
He wouldn't come home. He may eat at landlord's house and sleep under a tree.
Let him sleep if that's what he's destined to. But I wouldn't starve waiting for him.
[utensil clanking]
-What's that sound? -Er... Cat!
-You please sleep! -A cat is it? Let me see.
Ah! Oh! Ouch!
What is this?
Why did you have to sneak?
As though the problems I already aren't enough, why do you add to them?
Tell me, why did you do this?
I didn't do anything. As you are very angry today...
Am I angry? Why do you have find excuses? I understand everything.
If you want to be close to them, please do. But please don't drag me into it.
Did you just see that?
"The words of women have different meanings"
-Stop it! She might come back! -She left!
[startled] Thief! Thief!
Thieves... Thieves!
He flashed a light from the window... and ran away as I screamed
Nothing to worry, the thieves ran away.
-I'm very scared, -Don't worry!
Devayya will guard here, and I will be in the hall.
Let's go. Devayya be here.
[clock ringing]
[intense music]
[intense music continues]
[music]
-Good morning! -Good morning!
Were you awake all the night?
Yeah, atleast did you sleep peacefully?
Hmm. I had a weird dream too.
Tell me what is it.
-[chuckles] Forget it! -Come on tell me.
Was it David who was in your dreams?
-How could you make out? -That's not a big deal.
Either it should be him or me!
-Am I right? -Yes!
Unless I repay him, I can't be peaceful.
But you seem to bungle it up before you even repay him.
What would have happened, if the old couple believed your words?
Yeah, it was my mistake, I spoke as though I possessed an evil spirit in my anger.
But to my surprise, the old couple left saying nothing.
You spoke as though you possessed an evil spirit, and they bought it.
I think it happened for our good.
If you spend these two months somehow, David's debt will be cleared.
Later you can stay if you wish to, or leave.
Please sit.
If they don't address me with a relation, I don't feel like going at all.
Very good please stay back.
There's no problem in this bachelor's house at all.
Will you stay a bachelor forever?
Not sure. By the way, can I ask you something?
We are not a real couple, isn't it?
Why does their addressing bother you?
You would understand why, if you were a woman.
You are tired, fresh up. I shall make you some coffee.
Please come on the 5th David. If not full, we shall repay you partly.
Oh! Money money money!
Money will come and go, but can we come once gone?
That's fine, how about our Mary. It's been very long since I saw Mary.
Please tell me where she is. I shall visit her once.
You need not go and see her. She is making her living somewhere.
Moreover, why do you need that information?
-I meant... -Nothing more to hear, Come on the 5th!
-That's it? -That's all.
That's it?
Good bye!
Dear, I can't believe myself, that you two developed this school so much in a month.
If you show this dedication going forward too, we'll make it middle school next year
Sure, we shall definitely do it.
Thanks!
Son-in-law, though we named the school after my daughter,
I handed this over to you the day you came You should take care of it from now on.
Sure, we will put in our best efforts.
Ah! You may spend it, if I give you.
I shall give her your salary too. Huh?
-Ok, your wish. Bye sir -Bye!
Did you see how he left?
Dear, keep him in control.
He always roams around, but doesn't take household responsibilities.
The other day, when you were not well instead of buying pills he came to my home
Dear, you better keep an eye on him and watch out.
Not just her alone, we all must have to watch him.
Ok, see you sir.
Later, the old man gave me a lecture.
He asked me to put you in control and what not. He spoke something funny.
[chuckles]
Aah!
Here's your salary. Please take it.
I don't need it now. First clear your debt.
I will take it the next month if I need it.
-You need not send anyone? -No!
-So you have no one? -No!
Thanks! I will pay you next month.
-Send an MO to my home, along with this. -Oh yes!
We are able to repay you in full with the grace of the Lord.
Take this and give the note.
Rs 400 income in just 1 month? My God!
How did she earn?
A generous person like you lent us.
We shall repay him later. Ok?
Take this and give the note.
Keep it with you!
-So where is Mary now? -Why do want to know?
-Didn't I tell you that I won't tell? -That's it?
-That's all.
Here is the receipt. My debt is cleared today.
Thanks to you and your idea.
Actually, I should thank you. My idea wouldn't have worked,if you haven't agreed
But you are very intelligent. You will act according to the situations.
Sita, why have you come?
I haven't come for you, I came for sir.
-Why do you need him? -I came to learn a song.
No song, nothing. Just go away.
Who are you to ask me to go away? I'll ask my dad to dismiss you.
Do whatever you wish to.
You will see it. Come sir, you can teach at my place.
-Please come sir. -I'll come tomorrow.
Neither tomorrow nor the day after! Just go!
-Come sir... Come sir! -No way!
-Come Sir... -Didn't I say? He won't!
I shall get my ears cut if I don't call him to my place and learn the song.
Not just ears, get your nose too cut. Devil.
You are the devil, ghost, monster and every other evil spirit.
Whoa!
Sir! Rukmini and Sathyabhama!
Who are they?
Ah... They are sisters in our Mythology. They always keep fighting.
Oh is it? Devayya, we will go out, take care of the house meanwhile.
Good, get me some sweets when you return.
Mom, that teacher who is a devil...
is not letting me learn music from sir.
Hey, dismiss her immediately!
No dear, you shouldn't speak like that.
Doesn't the sir too leave if we dismiss the teacher?
Then call sir here, and ask him to teach the song.
Ok dear, Raju go and call sir on my word.
Right!
-Hey, where is sir? -What for?
Nothing much, Sita has asked for him.
-Oh she did? Poor thing! -Why, what happened to sir?
-Alas! -Alas?
What happened to sir, he is good isn't he?
Tell me what happened?
-Then add some fuel! -Fuel... Fuel... Fuel...
Tell me!
Sita calls to teach music, teacher says no.
She gets angry if he doesn't teach, and this lady here gets angry if he teaches.
Sir is getting crushed between these two ladies!
Why should she get angry? What's her problem is he teaches her?
Oh! There's a big story behind it.
If need it, give me some more.
Tell me!
When she fell ill, she threatened that she would go away.
Then landlord got angry and said, 'You think we can't find a girl?'
'if it requires, I shall get my daughter married to him'
-Huh? -Hmm!
-So our sir developed a small hope. -Is your sir that greedy?
Who doesn't have hopes? Moreover she is from a rich family.
Give me some more, for further information.
Enough of what I heard!
2,3,4,5...
-Why didn't he come? -He denied!
He is such a snob! You don't worry, I shall dismiss him.
[sobs] Mom, look he says he will dismiss sir.
Stop it Raju. You need not do anything, go.
Calm down dear, I shall ask you dad to call him after he comes.
Good morning, Mary wrote to me that as you have given all the money to me,
and asked me to give you money if you need.
We are fine. What did she write? Where's the letter.
Oops where is it? I kept in my pocket.
I should have missed it on the way. She said everything is fine there,
and that she is coming in this month end. Can you give me the address, I've to reply
-Sit down, I'll get it. -Thanks!
Huh!
Good morning!
-What's that? -He asked for baby's address.
-No address nothing! Get out! -That's it?
-That's all! -That's it?
-Get out! -Thank you!

Dear, you better not get cheated!
Dear, you any how stopped coming, you aren't letting him come either?
Do you think we abduct him?
Nothing as such, we'll come.
Son-in-law, though I have insisted, why haven't you come to teach music?
This won't work. Sita is depressed about it.
I'll come tomorrow. I was not well lately.
No way! You have to come now. Both of you!
-Come dear. -I need to cook. You go!
Did you see that? They went to discuss.
-Yeah, will everyone be like you? -Yeah!
Huh?
-Please we better go. -I won't come.
-Please think it again. -I've thought enough.
-I don't like your attitude. -I don't like your double games.
-You're mistaken! -I'm not!
Please think soberly, what is wrong in going there?
Everything. First of all, I don't like to see their faces.
What does she say?
She says she doesn't like our dumb faces. How can she like them?
-Son-in-law... Please come! -Coming... Coming!

Sir, what is this?
-What's this? -What?
Your wife is going to Madras, she sent a leave letter.
Leave? I didn't know about it.
Yeah, how would you know it? I've been observing you two lately.
I don't see you're in good terms.
You better go, convince her and stop her. Else the consequences will be bad.
-Yes! -Ok sir.
-Look miss.. -What's it?
I feel scared to tell you anything.
Why do you get scared? I'm anyhow leaving in two days, you can stay happy.
Please, think about it.
I gave it enough thought!
You are just thinking about yourself, but not me.
Imagine how badly I land in trouble if you leave.
What do I answer if you don't return?
Make up something! You already have made up so much, that's an easy job for you.
Why not? But my conscience won't let me say it.
Is it? Tell me what would you tell.
Forget it, you may feel bad.
I won't feel bad, tell me.
I'll tell them you are suffering from Typhoid.
I'll starve for two days. Then the old man would ask me not to worry and visit you.
I would say, that it's not necessary and that I would send Devayya.
Also say that I can't leave school and go.
Some period will pass on like this.
Later?
Later... If you return well and good.
else I will ask Devayya to send a telegram.
Holding it, I'll weep saying 'I should've gone when you asked me to'
'and it's too late now.'
-Will you tell that I passed away? -Else do we want to say you eloped?
-My God! -Tell me what else can I say?
I should say something or the other to make my living.
Not for your living, I know your drama
If you say that I'm dead, they are waiting to get you married to their daughter.
Marry her and enjoy your life. I wouldn't stay here even a moment more.
If you blame me that, you can't leave this place.
Who are you to stop me? I will go.
-No way! -I will go.
-I won't let you go. -I will go!
-No! -Yes!
-I won't let you! -I will go!
Stay calm son!
How can I stay calm? It's not even 2 months, and she wants to leave so early.
Did you see such a thing ever?
I actually wanted to go in the 1st month itself, but he stopped me.
Is it? Yeah!
Yes!
Calm down dear, I shall convince son-in-law,
stay back for a month there and come.
-Don't cry dear. -I'm not crying, go away!
You don't know about women.
Every woman will want to see her mother in this time.
-Let her go. -You can send her if you wish to.
But I won't agree.
Hey stop being stubborn. Go and convince her.
No way, this won't work. This has gone way beyond.
Stop it, just go I say!
-Sir no, please! -Just get inside!
-There's no use closing the doors. -Go man!
Devayya, don't open the door.
Good night, close the door.

They took away the letter too along with the dollar.
This is definitely David's job!
He may go and trouble her there.
We too shall go, you please pack our bags.
Meanwhile, I shall file a report in the police station.
Son-in-law, we have planned for your wife's baby shower today.
-Baby shower? -Hmm!
Why do you have to take the strain? She's from city, she may not like.
You no nothing! You shouldn't hinder women's celebrations. Hmm!
Ok, take her is she is willing to. Later don't blame me.
Ok!
Dear, we have arranged for your baby shower this evening.
You have to come early.
What did he say?
What else would he say? He left to your will.
Then I would come.
Get son-in-law too along with you. Ok?
See you son-in-law!
What does baby shower mean?
Baby shower means... Hmm...
It's a festival related to woman.
Didn't they perform the birthday the other day?
This would be performed in a bit larger scale than that.
Never mind! I promised her anyhow.
I will tolerate for anything they do to me today.
-What did they say? -They said they will come.
Then arrange for their accommodation too upstairs.
-Hey... -Yes...
Nothing!
"You mind your business... We will mind ours, why should we fight..."
Hey, is you madam's return confirmed?
Don't you see the packing?
Can't we stop her in any way?
Why not? We can stop her if we want to and send her too.
Everything depends on the fuel!
-Give me Rs50! -Not just Rs50, I will give you 100!
-Tell me how would you stop? -First give it here sir!
Tell me!
I will feed a full bottle of Castor oil to sir.
I will threaten with madam that he is suffering from Cholera.
Then she will drop going.
Good, and later?
-Later you are here and me too! -And fuel too. Isn't it?
Yes, we can look into it then!

He must be waiting for me, I'll go home.
We informed him that you wouldn't come.
You can sleep here for tonight.
Please go and sleep dear.
Who is that? Who?
[startled]
I shall kill you if you shout.
I'm a thief! A dacoit!
Take out your jewellery! Come on!
-[shouts] -[screams]
Open the door! Hmm!
-It's locked from outside. -Call them!
What it dear?
Please open the door.
I know what you are up to. I wouldn't open the door until morning.
Tell them that there is a thief here, and he says he will kill me.
There is a thief here, he says he will kill me. Please open the door.
Ah! Son-in-law took the disguise of a thief!
Hey son-in-law, don't try to act smart. Be careful!
Why do look like that?
Huh? How mean! You try to cheat me?
They did this deliberately.
I tried to run away playing a thief, but it went vain!
Miss Mary, this is our final exam!
Let's assume that we are strangers and travelling in a train.
And think that we are travelling from Madras to Bejawada.
You sleep on the bed with the same feeling.
I will sit here with the same thought.
We shall go in our own paths in the morning.
-Are you done or anything else left out? -Nothing else.
Then why do you wait until morning, go now.
I know where you want to go.
Good, but how do I go?
Somehow! I don't know! But you have to leave now.
How do I go? I don't find another way either.
It looks too steep to jump.
Come, I'll show you another way.
-Sita... -Coming sister...
[screams]
He ran away? By jumping off from here?
How stubborn is he? You please don't cry.
You go away tomorrow! But what happened?
-Nothing, but please send me home. -Ok, please go.
-Devayya... Devayya... -Sir!
Why have you come alone?
Thank God, I came back alive, I was almost dead.
-What's that sir? -It just happened!
We'll get rid of it from tomorrow.
How can you leave it that simple? Why should we let her go?
What else can we do? That old couple are also ok with it now.
Nothing is left in our hands. It slipped away.
-Not really, I have an idea? -What's it?
You take a medicine, I'll threaten that its Cholera.
The old couple will not let her go, though she wants to.
-Sounds good, but I have a better idea. -What's that?
-Tell that I broke my leg. -What's that?
I'll tell you later.
Devayya... Devayya... Devayya...
You may go Appanna!
I'm sorry. It's my mistake.
Argh! Please spare me with this.
I'm lucky enough that I hurt my leg, what I hurt my head?
Sorry, good you escaped, your luck or mine.
Argh! Will you step out or should I?
Why do you get angry? I told you it was my mistake.
Oh God! So you wouldn't spare me?
Devayya!
Huh?
She's there, come slowly!
[groans]
Sir, how do you feel now?
Better! It almost relieved.
Ofcourse it would! After all she is there taking care of you.
Sleep peacefully, the remaining pain too will get relieved.
Yeah but I don't feel sleepy.
Then I would sing you a lullaby, you sleep happily.
[sings a Hindi lullaby]
Stop it, I may not sleep at all after hearing your song.
Oh so you want madam to sing a song for you? You please sing.
Look like he doesn't sleep unless you sing.

[train engine revives]
David cheated us.
Ticket!
-How far is Appapuram from here? -2 miles!
-Can we get any transport from here? -Yes!
Missamma... Missamma!
-Who? -David came for you!
-Why did he come here too? -It's ok, you take rest, I'll send away.
-Good morning! Good morning! Mary! -Why didn't come here?
I came for you, for your love!
No love nothing! Just get out!
That's it? That's all.
-Then clear my due first. -I have already cleared it.
When did you clear it? Didn't I?
-No! -Shall I get the receipt?
Get it!
Wait, I too would come.
-Here it is! -Let me see!
Argh!
Spit it! Spit it!
Spit it!
Who the hell are you?
He is my husband.
Huh? Your husband? My God!
How could you leave me and marry this Hindu?
Look, she is a Christian.
-A Christian? -Yes!
These two are acting like a couple here.
Come to the landlord,
We shall get them dismissed.
Mr MT last chance for you!
You better send miss Mary with me, else I will send you jail filing a fraud case.
-Will you send me to jail? -Yes!
-Really? -Certainly!
[screams]
Peace peace!
Get out!
Go!
Is what you told true?
Thank God then...
So were you acting from last night?
Didn't you act all these days?
What a prank! Devayya took Rs10 from me for your wound.
He pranked you too?
Aah, David will now get the elderly couple.
What will we answer them now?
We will tell them the truth. We will stay if they want us to else we'll leave.
I swear on Bible, she is a Christian, and her name is Miss Mary Jeeva Rathnam.
He is a Hindu, and they are not a couple.
How do I believe you?
-Do you have any proof? -Oh yes! Here!
-The letter she wrote to her dad. -Huh? Where did you find this?
Er... It's mine.
Tell me the truth! Who's is this?
It's Mary family's. They gave to clear their due.
Then wait here. Govind,watch him!
-Sir... sir... sir! -Sit down!
Aunty look at this, is this our Mahalakshmi's?
Yes, how did you get this?
One man brought it from Madras. He says this belongs to our teacher.
They gave him towards clearance of their due.
This is certainly my daughter's. teacher also resembles MahaLakshmi.
But he said they are Christians!
May be she grew up there. Call your uncle. We will go and find out.
Er... Uncle...
Uncle...
Dear... Dear...
Why did you come again?
We brought him along with us.
To find out about you.
What do you what to find out? Didn't I tell earlier?
My name is Miss Mary. I'm a Christian and I'm not yet married.
Now I'm going to marry him.
My God, she was supposed to marry me, now she says she would marry him.
You tell me the justice, simple justice! Please!
Look, is this your dollar?
Ours, why is it here?
Yeah, he gave it. You gave to clear your dues.
No! He should have stolen it.
-Did I steal it? Am I a thief? -Why not?
What if it is proved that all you spoke is false and what she told is the truth?
-Let her hit me with her sandal! -Right!
-Did you wear it in your childhood? -No!
-Then how did you have it? -I didn't know about it.
-It was in our house since my childhood. -I see!
-Do you have your parents? -Yes!
-How old are they? -My dad should be 60 and my mom is 50 plus
-No sir, it should be more. -Ssh!
Do you have brothers or sisters?
None!
You do not brothers and sisters? And parents are very old.
Then why can't you be their adopted child?
Yeah, that's the point.
No point nothing! What are these silly questions?
You shouldn't get angry. Based on the evidences...
it is 50% proved that you are not their own daughter.
The rest has to be proved. Let me see if you have a mole on your right feet...
No mole nothing! What the fuss is this?
Let us stay if you wish to, else ask us to leave, but will you insult me like this?
Devayya, call your sir, we shall leave!
Calm down dear, why do you have to go? Stay back here.
Why do you talk like this instead of doing justice?
She is my wife! Please send her with me.
-Come Mary come on! -Rascal!
Hey you shut up! Whom do you think she is?
Be careful! I will get you bashed!
You do not know uncle, they seem to have a long story.
-Let them sort out themselves. -Yes, I too want the same.
-Come on Mary please! -Shut up!
-Mary please! -Rascal!
-Ah, you calm down dear! -Oh no, you ruined everything uncle!
You wouldn't keep quiet!
Look Mr. we don't mind. You sort it out!
Yeah, come on Mary! Please!
Will you leave or not? Rascal!
No Mary I have changed a lot. I will further change for you!
-Mary please! -Get out!
No Mary I have changed a lot. I will further change for you!
Ok, come we both shall get out!
-Come on please! -I say get out!
-Please Mary... -Uncle!
Uncle mole! Aunty its Mahalakshmi!
-My dear Mahalakshmi! -Mahalakshmi!
-Sister... Sister... -Dear, my baby...it's been years!
Leave me I say! I'm not your baby and your sister. what this nuisance?
-Dear.. listen to me... -Sister... please wait...

-Argh! Dear... Lakshmi... -Sister...
Lakshmi, please open the door!
-Mary my darling! My darling! -Go!

-Raju... -Uncle!
-He's a thief, tie him up! -Yes!
[scoffs]
-You love? Do you? -Why? Shouldn't I?
How dare you question you? Bloody beggar!
Master, hand him over in the police station!
Hand me over in the Police station?
Nothing happened! He's our man, hit him!
Don't have a doubt, hit him!
Didn't I tell you? It's ok, hit him!
Why will you hit, give it here!
You were by my side, till now. Why did you turn on theirs now?
Master, hand him over in the police station?
-What are you man? -Shut up!
Take him!
[screaming and shouting]
Take him to the Police station.
No please, he will dig out old cases again!
Mary... Mary! Oh Father save me!
They say I'm a thief! Please tell about me!
He is a thief! Hand him over to Police immediately!
Take him to Police hmm!
-Sir, you are Mary's parents. Aren't you? -Yes!
Good morning sir, they are awaiting you!
Govinda, we found the parents who raised her too.
Good morning! They are Mary's parents.
Mary your parents have come.
I won't believe, first send away these people.
-Dear Mary... -Come out dear...
Mom... Dad...
Dad, they say we are their daughter. You please tell them I'm not.
Yes, our daughter went missing 16 years ago in Kakinada.
Then she had a tiger clasw's dollar in her neck and a mole on her feet.
These are the only marks. Please tell us, is she your own daughter?
Please tell dad.
Yes dear, you are not our own daughter.
16 years ago, we found you in Kakinada.
We tried to trace your parents, but we couldn't find out.
Then we thought the Lord has blessed you to us.
If not giving birth is the only deficiency then you are their daughter only.
Nah! Don't say that!
I said that out of happiness that we found our daughter who went missing 16 years ago
Since childhood you nourished, raised, and educated her, so you are her parents.
By the way, our daughter is fortunate!
That's why she came into a family like yours, got educated and pursued BA too.
If she was with us, then... Here's how she'd be!
[sobs]
Don't call it a fortune!
For her education, I had to face many hardships, borrow money
and to repay she had to come this far.
Because she came, I too became fortunate along with her.
So, finalise about whose girl is she?
Nothing to finalise! We gave birth and they brought up!
But she is not either of ours now! Your girl, you decide.
A tricky problem!
Devayya!
You tell me whose girl is she!
-Give me some fuel! -So you started ripping from me too?
Everything depends on the fuel! She too belongs to it.
-Sita... -Go away!
-Sister... -Don't talk to me, go!
My sweet girl,she will talk to me!
That's right!
Uncle, David is finished! I sent him to jail!
Here, he is my nephew, a great defective!
Yeah... Detective!
He is the one who traced Mahalakshmi too!
-Raju... -Uncle...
-Sita is yours! -Thanks! Right...
-Sir, our elder daughter... -Yeah...
-Yeah!
Yeah!
-Yeah... -Uncle?
