Hello?
It's me.
Bikshu speaking.
What happened?
Missed it.
Missed it?
Don't talk on phone.
I'll come meet you.
-Did you call Kishan Lal? -Yes, madam.
Said he'll send the necklace tomorrow.
Tomorrow?
Hello. Kishan Lal?
You said you'll send the necklace tomorrow?
You might be having many problems. I don't care.
I sent the cheque yesterday itself right?
At least keep up your word.
I want the necklace by tomorrow evening.
Yes.
-I'll leave Chari sir. -Madam. Sign.
I almost forgot.
Had a meeting at the club.
Why are you so late?
There's lot of work at office.
By the time I finished all that.
It got late.
Yeah, Chari sir...
I promised one lakh rupees for Children society fund.
-Make immediate arrangements. -Vijaya.
Why to waste so much on societies and charities?
Come on!
What will we do with that much money?
Moreover I promised them. You go.
I am heading out.
[Grunts]
[Engine revving]
[Whistling]
Hey, get up. It's time to attend the interview.
Get lost. You and your bloody job.
There's no way we can crack it. I don't want to come. You go.
Hey, you are coming or not?
I am not coming. You leave.
Your karma.
I can't make it right.
Bose.
-When? -What, sir?
Don't you know? About the rent!
Am I asking for the first time?
-Ah, the money order seems to be late. -Son.
Change that dialogue.
How many times will you say that?
You might not feel bored to repeat it.
But I am feeling bored listening to it.
Why are you not talking?
-What? -No, sir.
It will reach in one week. As it comes...
What are you saying? It's almost three months rent.
Make it fast. Or else it won't be good for us.
-OK, sir. -Yeah.
-Dad, I'll go get a soap. -Yeah yeah.
Hey hey hey.
-Why are you leaving like that? -Or else!
Why are you talking in sign language when I'm talking to your dad?
-What if he sees? -What kind of man are you?
Why are you getting so scared? OK leave it.
-What about evening program? -Evening program!
Hey, don't start now.
-We have to go to a movie. OK? -OK.
Good. Very good.
-You are selected. -Thank you, sir.
-Will mail the appointment orders soon. -Thank you.
-When will you meet then? -After I get the letter, sir.
That's OK.
Come home once.
Tomorrow is Sunday no. I'll be home.
Come meet in the evening.
You go.
Hello.
He called you home?
-Go in the evening. Take the address. -Why?
You didn't understand?
You think he called you for dinner?
No.
For money.
-Get five thousand. -Five!
What? Any problem?
Try four.
Four.
I'll adjust.
We can settle that later.
What? Hello... Next.
22,500/-
Need to pay 30,000/- interest by this month end.
10,000/- to Sai Chit funds.
-10,000/-in the club. -When will you buy my necklace?
10,000/- to Raja Ram.
15,000/- in the bar.
These calculations, even after coming here?
Not calculations.
These are the amounts I owe people.
You can get money to every need, but my necklace.
Whats your fuss when I'm already dying out of tension?
See Jyothi. It's not to escape my promise.
You look so beautiful, when your neck is empty.
Enough. Don't play your tricks with me.
You have lots of money, but still behave poor!
I am not rich. My wife is.
Your wife's money is not yours?
I married her thinking the same.
You don't know Jyothi.
She has to give me money even for my cigarettes.
Don't you feel shame to say that?
Not shame. I am in tension. Lots of tension.
The Das who gave me money will come soon.
He is a goon.
If I don't return his money on time...
He will tear my guts.
[Phone rings]
-Yeah?-Sir, Das is here for you.
Das? OK.
-You told him I am here? -No, sir.
-He came to your room before I ask you. -Shit.
Are you mad? You need to-
Yeah yeah yeah.
I don't know.
That 10 lakhs payment is done.
About the next deal?
No no no no. This order is of 25 lakhs.
Yeah.
See you at the club. OK.
[Exhales]
Sorry, some business.
It's OK. What will you have? Tea, coffee?
Don't act. Where's the money?
Money... err...
-I thought of bringing it myself. -Stop cooking stories.
Give me the money.
Stay here. I will be back.
-Chari? -Sir?
How much cash we have in the office right now?
Well.. the cash...
I need 1 lakh very urgently.
Madam didn't tell me anything about this!
Leave about your madam. It's urgent.
I mean it's a huge amount.
-Let me ask her once. -No need.
No no. I am going home now. I will talk to her.
[Smiles]
Sorry Das, sir. The cheque was not deposited yet.
-In two to three days... -Hey. Not two three days.
I will give you one week.
I will come next Friday. If you fail to pay...
Damn!
Congrats. Did you get it? It's evident from your face anyway.
Hey, did you see the paper today?
Someone kidnapped our MLA's son and asked for 1 lakh ransom.
They asked and these people gave.
Even the police had no idea who the kidnappers are.
It seems a better way.
Why face all these troubles?
Let's also do kidnaps.
[Car horn]
See his luck. Car, building, beautiful wife.
-We need luck for anything. -Why see it as luck?
May be he worked hard.
Where's your madam?
Today is the death anniversary of her dad.
She's very upset.
She's in his room.
Son, Subba Rao.
You know I had lots of sentiments.
After me, my whole property...
Should go to my blood relatives only.
It's our family's culture.
That's why.
[Heavy coughing]
That's why I though of it a lot.
And the whole...
And the whole property is transferred on to her name.
From now you are my son-in-law.
Please take care of her.
Why so late?
-Where's Renu? It's time. -Getting ready.
-Go call her. -Call her?
What if that old fellows sees us!
Why he irritates in the name of rent all the time?
-We had to pay him somehow. -When will we be free of these rents?
See that building. How huge it is!
Can we stay in such buildings at all?
-You can. -Don't joke.
We need luck for anything.
Not luck. He had the money and he built it.
Who had the money? Subba Rao? Look at your face.
He used to be a clerk in her office once.
Her father called her from US when he's sick.
And got her married to Subba Rao, as the old man likes him.
It's like the peaks of being lucky.
He bagged all this in free.
I am thinking the same way.
An old man, ready to die in four five months.
With a beautiful daughter and a huge building.
Four to five cars.
-See some set-up like this. -I am not that greedy.
Me, my old man and Renu.
-That's it for this life. -Very difficult.
Renu come, we are getting late.
Don't listen to him. He always talks like that.
It seems like a sentiment picture. Lots of ladies.
I'll go try for the tickets.
-Hey come. -You stand here. I'll be back.
Yeah, waiting for those words only. Stand in the line at least for once.
-Will be right back. -They won't give three tickets.
-Try no. -Stand in the line no?
Renu, tickets are over. Shall I try the four rupees ones?
Four rupees? I can't sit in the low class.
-What? -Booking was closed.
-Let it be. -Tickets?
-Where did you get these? -In black.
-Bought in black? -Why?
-Black or white. We will miss the start. -What are you talking?
We are low on money and you buy black tickets?
-What will you do for tomorrow? -Leave it. Let's go.
How can I leave it? Will you die without the movie?
-Will miss the titles. -I won't come. You go.
-Hey, listen to me. -I said I won't come. You go.
-Everyone is seeing. -Don't make me angry. You leave.
-Leave me. -Listen to me.
[Renu humming]
"The deer runs the minute it wakes up"
"Nothing will happen if we sit idle"
"Step in the direction you want. Why the doubt?"
"Why jump like a deer?"
"We'll lose teeth if we slip."
"Take a step after thinking. Why the hurry?"
"Tendulkar and Manjrekar are younger than us."
"They are our examples."
"The ball is fast like a bullet."
"The heart will shake seeing it."
"But we are so simple. So simple."
"It all depends on our astrology."
"One can't win without the proper lines."
"Check if it was written to you."
"Today's care will save your future."
"If you have the luck, you can earn fast and be rich."
"Your life depends on the star of your destiny."
[Humming together]
"If we stop like a lazy tortoise, it will be so boring."
"My nature is taking off in top gear."
"One who jumps like a rabbit, will definitely fall down."
"Will either go to a lock-up or a hospital."
"Let's try the mountain peak."
"What will we lose in it?"
"It's just a hair strand."
"You had very few on your head."
"Don't lose them too."
"Don't be a total zero. Govindha, Govindha."
"Why all these intellectual lectures?"
"As if some great geniuses."
"As if in a mythological picture."
"Why all these lengthy poems?"
"Lots of commotion with your discussions."
"Heavy shouting in the busy junction."
[Humming together]
Vijaya?
I talked to the auditor.
If the Mylapur properties were on my name, we may get tax benefits.
Why bring up the same topic all the time?
You know about my father's sentiments right?
His sentiments are important than the benefits.
We are facing many problems with your father's sentiments.
When ever I ask Chari for money.
[Imitating Chari]: Madam didn't tell me about this, sir.
His expressions were like I am stealing the money.
It's very shameful in front of all those people.
Don't hype those small things.
He's working under my dad since 25 years.
He's being specific as his age increases.
We won't get such a loyal person in these days.
Yeah, I too know that.
But what I suggest is let him rest and appoint an youngster in his place.
Are you mad?
You told me, it's OK. Don't say the same elsewhere.
He will feel bad if he comes to know. Leave the topic.
I too am not so concerned about that topic.
Vijaya. [Smiles]
It's been very problematic, sending the cheque book for signature every time.
Even you will feel more free.
What's there in a few signatures?
And why it will be a problem? I am not out of station no? I am here.
Anyway, you are headed to the office right?
Ask Chari to call me once.
We need to send two lakhs out.
[Whistles]
Hey.
Why are you here? Went to room?
That old man's killing me in the name of rent if I go to room.
Let the light go off.
Hey, you get tensed for everything.
Let's plan something. Come.
What plan? Money we had is going for your tiffins and black tickets.
Let's do something. Let's take a loan from Khan Dada.
-Khan Dada? -Yes.
He's a rowdy. He will trash us if we don't pay back in time.
Hey, I know what his weakness is.
Let's hit him right at that spot.
[Auto revving]
[Heroic music]
What?
You said you won't pay the money?
I will pay next week, sir.
Don't play around with Khan.
Your body will go missing.
-Order a tea. -Hey, give a tea.
[Old song playing on radio]
[Laughing]
What happens to the shopkeeper!
He will die.
Chiranjeevi is in the movies. You on the streets.
That's all. [Shouts]
Is this a hand? Or an iron rod?
-Get him a tea. -No no.
I am definite. You try.
-In what? -Into movies.
-They won't suit us. -See. I won't agree.
Those heroes. They fight with duplicates.
Can they be natural like you?
You are a little short, but can manage.
We can manage with the camera.
What do you want?
Need a little loan.
-How much? -Just three hundred.
Thank you brother.
-When will you give? -Sunday.
Don't play around with Khan.
Your body will go missing.
Will I be good in movies?
No doubt.
I am the one after Chiranjeevi?
Guarantee.
Then leave.
Hail Lord Hanuman.
[Door opens]
Today is Friday. Do you remember?
Yeah.
One minute.
-Chari. -Sir?
Madam asked you to call once.
[Phone rings]
Hello? Madam.
Tell me.
One minute.
Yeah, Vijaya.
I will get late. You have your dinner.
Yeah, Vijaya.
We need to donate 1 lakh to Geetha charitable trust right?
Yeah.
Will give it right now.
I will take from Chari.
Tell that to Chari.
Or else he will say that you haven't informed him.
No need?
Ok darling. Bye.
Chari, sir. The money.
Das, sir.
Here you go.
1 lakh rupees.
When will you give the balance?
I can't give the entire amount at once. Please.
You need this cleverness while you take the loans.
Please, please. Just one week of time.
I will settle your loan. In just one week, I will settle your entire loan.
Ok.
Next Friday.
[Screams]
I haven't called you for this.
Renu!
Renu?
Renu. Renu. Why are you walking away?
-Bose, do you like me? -Yes.
Do you love me?
Will we get married at all?
Is this the topic you wanted to discuss personally?
See this employment news.
Don't change the topic.
I am serious. Tell me.
Don't eat my brain.
Will marry when I get a job.
You'll marry after banging a job?
So great.
Leave your job aside. I am getting matches.
My dad is torturing me, showing the marriage ads in the newspaper.
If you sit ideal like this. Some nameless idiot will...
Will marry me.
Then our story will be a tragic ending like Devadas Parvati.
So better talk to my dad urgently.
Me? Talking with your dad?
I am avoiding him because he will ask for the rent.
Now if I tell him about our love?
He will kick me left and right.
He will throw our things out and make us vacate.
Then I need to be on the roads.
I loved you, not knowing that you are this weak.
Don't talk without logic. That's not the point here.
Financial problem.
If he asks me how will I take care of you without a job?
I don't know what you will tell him.
Other than you...
If I had to marry another guy.
I will die.
Renu.
It's true Bose.
Yeah, how much is the cash balance?
Yes, madam.
I sent 10,000/-to Durga agencies.
2 lakhs for the children society.
Sent the other two lakhs also.
And the 1 lakh you told sir to- [Glass breaks]
Cat. It's a cat. Cat.
-What happened? -This huge cat!
Jumped on to me and escaped through this.
How will such a huge cat, fit into this?
Chari, sir.
How can it know it can't go through this?
-Chari. -Madam?
-Let's continue tomorrow. Good night. -Good night, madam.
Will anyone be scared of a cat?
It's very huge.
[Gasps]
Where are the servants? [Grunts]
Idiots.
Hey, Lakshmi. Narayana.
[Purring like a cat]
[Smiles]
-Take your hand off. -What happened?
I know everything you did.
You created the cat to divert the 1 lakh topic.
I haven't reacted because we can't lose our name in front of the servants.
When you told me that you have changed.
I cleared all your loans.
I believed in you blindly.
But you are the same.
-Vijaya. -Enough.
Don't try to cheat me.
The reason I am not giving you the money.
It's not because I am arrogant and rich.
It's to bring change in you. I don't know why you can't understand that.
Forgive me Vijaya.
-After this day... -It's been many times already.
But this time is different. I swear on you.
I won't do anything that will hurt you.
At that time I took loans for races and clubs.
Now I am paying the cost of it.
Believe me Vijaya.
From now on.
I want to live like a human.
Live like a human.
What's this?
Please. [Crying]
What's this?
[Both crying]
I will agree.
You told me. Yeah.
You told me not to get married.
I didn't listen.
What can we do?
And now?
-I am paying the price. -Hello Subba Rao brother.
Narsing?
Why are you here?
Rao sir is my friend. He called me to this party.
What else then?
Nothing. I am busy in marriage works.
Yours?
Mine? No. My nephew's.
He's roaming around single from long time.
He wants to work in the canteen. He wants to be an electrician.
So I am getting him married so that he will settle.
-I never saw him. -No, you did.
You once met him too. Hey, call Yadhagiri.
Then what happened?
The dancers didn't show up.
The girl was so upset.
Her name is Chitra. Super girl.
We saw a girl in the theatre? She's nothing before this girl.
She's a masterpiece.
She's very upset.
I said I will do.
She was shocked. Full shock.
She had no idea about me.
I rocked the stage.
But let me tell you Giri brother.
That girl danced.
Just like an angel.
I thought of flirting with her.
But her boyfriend, Durga. He's a big rowdy in the city.
If something goes wrong?
I will be dead. So I kept silent.
But Raja brother. That girl is superb.
Like a piece from the moon.
But what can we do?
She's not written for me.
Hey, I did many things like these.
Got to settle in life.
Yadhagiri, your uncle is calling you.
Hey Yadhagiri. Do you remember Subba Rao sir?
-Our brother. -Hello, sir.
My nephew. 18th was his marriage.
You heard him?
Brother?

[Roars]
Return of the dragon.
Name deleted. That's all.
Hey, what brother. He's thinking of marriage and your are scaring him.
The kid is getting into danger.
That's why said so.
Not like that.
"Take care and be careful brother."
"Don't turn into a husband, dear bachelor."
"No question of marriage."
"Solo life is so better."
"Take care and be careful brother."
"Don't turn into a husband, dear bachelor."
"No question of marriage."
"Solo life is so better."
"Feeling so happy for the knots tied to her neck."
"A man fails to realize that they are his death knots."
"The minute you become a husband."
"All your enjoyments will end."
"Take care and be careful brother."
"Don't turn into a husband, dear bachelor."
"No question of marriage."
"Solo life is so better."
Hello waiter.
Can we get a quarter in loose?
"Rather than a wife, hotels are better for food."
"There's lots of beauty in the market for you needs."
Yeah, it's true.
"Did the monkeys or the hens had this marriage rituals?"
"No mating animal had this weird rule."
"Why for us then? That's why!"
"Take care and be careful brother."
"Don't turn into a husband, dear bachelor."
"No question of marriage."
"Solo life is so better. Yeah."
It seems he had enough. Bring him down or he'll hurt himself.
"Marriage is like a tiger."
"If you go near it in ignorance."
"It will eat you off."
There's lot more, listen.
"Idi Amin, Saddam Hussain, Hitler etc."
"Are they any bigger dictators than a wife in your house?"
-"Are they such dictators?" -Oh my god.
"Take care and be careful brother."
"Don't turn into a husband, dear bachelor."
"No question of marriage at all."
"Solo life is so better."
I can go.
Do you think I can't handle?
Day after tomorrow is Friday.
Yeah, I do remember.
[Horn]
There's no use of it.
Can't cheat Chari or Vijaya for money anymore.
What should I do now?
No use at all.
I need to call Bikshu again.
Had to.
Tiger, come here. Come here. Come.
-Dog? -Yeah.
Alsatian.
This high.
You feared a dog?
-Anything else, sir? -No.
-Beer? -No.
Biryani?
No. Nothing.
It's not about fear.
The dog's owner saw me.
I had no way, but to leave.
You failed to kill a woman.
Huge guns and set-up.
Silencer fitting.
Professional killer, just for namesake.
It's not as easy as you think it is.
How can I know that a dog will come there?
Then a beggar.
Now a dog.
Now a cat will come.
This time I prepared a superb plan.
Even if the god comes.
He can't save your wife.
But...
-A little costly . -No.
No.
I have learnt my lesson.
You do nothing.
No.
-Anything else? -No.
No. I need nothing.
[Heroic music]
-What day is today? -Monday.
-You said you'll give money on Sunday. -I did, but...
You know me.
-Still playing games? -No.
[Hit] [Screams]
[Shouts]
Hey.
Here you are. I am searching for you only.
-Did you get it? -What's that?
They put up an advertisement for a new hero requirement.
Didn't Bose get you that?
He's a waste fellow. Always like this.
Very bad memory power. Perfect sir.
I read the story. You are apt for the role. Perfect.
Will I be ok for movies?
See? You are telling the same.
How many days will you do all this?
How much you earn?
Hundreds and thousands.
You had to play the bigger game. Lakhs and crores.
I will get the paper right now.
-Will I be an actor? -No doubt.
-Is it me after Chiranjeevi? -Guarantee.
-You said Sunday. -Will give on Monday.
Then leave.
Hello. Son.
I am waiting here for you only.
Do you think I had no other work?
-What sir? -What what? Rent.
You said one week. It's been two.
I am getting weak, waiting for the rent.
No, sir. We went out on that work only.
Why do I care about that?
I want the rent in two days.
Or vacate the room.
Or I will do it myself.
-Do you get it? -Yes, sir.
Not just understanding. Get it done.
-What did the old man say? -What did the old man say?
I'll kick you.
You should have stayed back.
You ran as if you had lots of work.
I took this room no?
That's why he's eating my brain.
And you are asking,what did the old man say?
What else? He's asking for the rent.
Who invented this money in the first place. It's been so important everywhere.
"Money said that it will be a friend to the king and the beggar."
"It's not our mother's relative, or father's."
" Still it said it was everything for us."
"Life had many relations with it."
"Money itself said so."
"You take birth and you die."
"In between I am everything, said money."
"Let's buy the time."
"Said the money."
"Let's see the magic of it."
"Said the money."
"As if it is your heartbeat."
"Keep the money in your heart."
"Take oath and marry the goddess of wealth herself."
"Money said that it will be a friend to the king and the beggar."
"It's not our mother's relative, or father's."
" Still it said it was everything for us."
"Did you pay the rent or not?"
"Else no entry into the compound."
"You had to sneak in like a thief."
"Go for money hunt."
"Opt for loan brother, whenever needed."
"Food, clothes and shelter."
"Everything comes with only money."
"Pray for the money."
"And catch it's feet."
"Take oath and marry the goddess of wealth herself."
"Money said that it will be a friend to the king and the beggar."
"It's not our mother's relative, or father's."
" Still it said it was everything for us."
"You like love royally."
"Like the poor hero in a picture."
"You can dream with confidence."
"Like a love story in the dramas."
"Take oath and marry the goddess of wealth herself."
"Money said that it will be a friend to the king and the beggar."
"It's not our mother's relative, or father's."
" Still it said it was everything for us."
"Let's buy the time."
"Said the money."
"Let's see the magic of wealth."
"Said the money."
"Money. It's all about money."
"It's all about money and nothing else."
-Hello uncle. Are you good? -No.
-What happened? -What else?
Without any shame that they haven't paid the mess bill from four months.
Two pigs were eating all day in the mess.
Uncle is so funny. Pigs he said.
Call us Bose and Chakri. Silly uncle.
Tell us how much we owe you. Money order will come and we'll pay.
From reserve bank?
Super joke, uncle. Come.
-What's special? -Egg.
-Get two. -Why egg? Srinu.
You go. You keep quite.
Egg. Eat it.
Leave the egg. You can't eat the food itself.
-Uncle. -Don't talk.
I have been calm from four months.
I can't anymore.
Feel some shyness as a human.
You are living without it.
I shouldn't blame you.
Once who gave birth to you and left you on us?
You parents. We need to blame those idiots.
[Renu crying]
What happened?
Renu's engagement is on this Sunday.
She's crying from then.
Hey Renu. What's this?
You always give us the strength. Now what?
Hey, listen to me.
You won't get an other job.
It's better you elope without that old man knowing.
-You're telling us to elope? -Hey.
I am telling you to marry her bravely.
How to live without an income?
First get married. Then we can think of living.
It's not that easy.
We need to think well before taking such decisions.
You keep thinking.
Some nameless idiot will marry me.
Then I will die.
Even after I die.
Keep thinking if you had to cry for me or not.
Sir.
-Sir? -Yes.
-Did you bring the rent. -No, sir.
-Damn. -I need to talk to you.
What?
I... want to marry your daughter.
Yes, yes.
What? My daughter?
-Take care, sir. -Catch me, catch me.
-What are you talking? -We both are in love, sir.
-You love my daughter? -Yes.
Keep me down first.
-I and Renu. -Keep me down.
-Not like that, sir. -Leave me first.
You love my daughter?
We are in love, dad.
We want to get married.
Marriage?
Watching waste movies and reading serial novels.
You are getting these ideas.
How dare you?
You can't even pay the rent.
You want to marry my daughter?
-What will you feed her? -Daddy.
Shut up and get inside. Go.
Now you said this, Ok.
But never bring it up again.
Damn.
How many more rounds you'll walk?
The stone is getting rubbed.
You are not listening to me from the morning.
Renu is very sensitive.
And loves you a lot too.
If you don't take a decision now.
What if she attempts suicide?
You will be the responsible person. Your wish.
Why are you scaring me?
Tell me what to do.
You are asking again?
You need a job to stop that marriage.
I talked about your job already.
We need to pay 50,000/-and he'll get you a job.
50,000/-?
From where will we get it?
What's there to ask?
There are many methods to earn money.
For example.
Our neighbouring aunty.
Kidnap that Subba Rao's wife and call him for ransom.
He will get us 1 lakh.
Hey, stop joking.
Hey, I am not proposing a murder.
We will bring her. Take the money.
And leave her free without anyone knowing.
When we settle, let's give their money back. Simple.
Try to understand me. If we have that money.
You will get the job.
Then you can ask that old man to give you Renu.
If he says no and all.
You and Renu can run away and marry happily.
You can live a happy life.
-Not that. -Hey, Bose.
This is the only way out.
If you delay this, she will get married.
If she dies of that heartless marriage.
You will be the responsible one.
You decide.
Das will come to office tomorrow. How?
How?
Damn. Vijaya had to die, for me to get all this property.
Can't trust people like Bikshu anymore.
Will do one thing.
I will kill her myself.
Hey.
Chakri.
What?
Will your plan work out?
Which one?
That kidnap one.
-It is easy to say. -Hey, listen to me.
It will work out for sure.
-But. -Hey, there will be no more buts.
If you don't decide now. Renu will get married.
After that no use of earning money.
We had no other chance.
Ok. If you feel it's so wrong.
We can return the money with interest.
How much shall we ask. Five thousand?
-Will ask one lakh. -One lakh?
-Will he give? -Won't he give one lakh for his wife?
[Heavy music]
Let's plan it very clearly.
Where will she be going?
And at what times? We need to follow up.
-And get to know. -The plan sounds good. But.
She will go in a car. We don't even have a cycle. How to follow her?
[Car engine revving]
-Why is she turning back? -The meter is running forward.
Not the meter, the car.
Car? What shall we do now?
Auto... Reverse [Both shouting at once]
-19 rupees 50 paise. -What?
-19 rupees 50 paise. -Couldn't hear you.
19 rupees 50 paise.
19...
-Little fast. -Car. Go behind the car.
Just go fast.
Bose, give the money.
Give the money. Where from. We need 10/-more.
Our bank.
It's Renu. Go ask her.
Will ask. Hello.
Hello. We need 10/-for the auto.
Usually it's 17/- only. This meter seems fast.
Thanks. Will give tomorrow.
Why so hurry. He's coming no?
Here. All good?
Car. Auto, let's go.
-Hey what? -No dude.
-You leave. -Let's follow her no?
Where will the money come from this time?
Shankar sent the money brother.
Whenever I ask Ganesh, he's telling stories.
He says he will come to you and talk.
I asked him to meet you tomorrow.
He will meet you. You need to talk.
Let's see.
-Hello, brother. -What? You won't come until I call?
Not like that.
Bose is not here?
Bose. Bose?
Bose? Who's Bose?
I told you when I met you at the shop no?
I sent it with him. Didn't you get it?
-Money? -Nice joke.
Hey.
Don't play around with Khan.
Your body will go missing.
Money order will come day after tomorrow.
I asked Bose to hand you the advertisement I told you about
Let it be. [Screams]
This...
Keeping this much talent and wasting time here...
I feel so sad.
Just keep one foot in the film land.
Wow.
What a face.
To the left.
Little more.
Chin up.
Little more.
Down.
Need luck.
Who need luck?
Cinema industry.
There's no connection.
To this face and this place.
Who are you?
Who am I? I am Manikyam.
To Dora Swamy Raju.
To K S Rama Rao.
To Ashwini Dutt.
To Ramanaidu.
What you are to them?
Chief adviser.
When to plan a movie.
Whom to shoot it with.
How to make it.
Why to make it.
They all ask me only.
You know Varaprasad?
Shiva Shankara Varaprasad.
I touched him like this. And he became Chiranjeevi.
You know Bakthavatsalam?
I touched him like this.
He became Mohan Babu.
Uppu Shobana Chalapathi Rao.
Shoban Babu.
Shiva Rama Krishna?
He became Super Star Krishna, even without touching.
Why are you here being so great?
If I sit in AC room and drink scotch.
How can I get common man's pulse?
That's why I search in low life places like this.
Why?
For new talent.
Come to studio tomorrow.
Come to the gate and say Manikyam. They will send you in.
Where will we hide her if we do kidnap her?
Close all windows and keep her here.
What if she runs away?
-Let's nail all the doors. -Yeah.
If she screams?
Let's warn her that we will kill if she shouts.
Will she be scared seeing our faces?
[Dialogues from TV]
Yeah, say now.
-See... -Wait wait.
-Now say. -See.
Will kill you if you make a sound.
We won't hurt you if you listen to us.
If you try to escape...
Will kill you.
-How is it? -Yeah.
Expression is Ok. But a little more base in the voice.
Sorry Vijaya. Can't make it to the party.
When will you come home?
Ok. Will meet you at home.
Bye.
Love you. Bye.
[Phone rings]
-Hello? -Operator. I need to check accounts.
Don't disturb me for an hour.
No matter who comes. Tell them I am not here.
-Don't connect the phone too. -Ok, sir.
[Phone rings] Ok sir.
-Hello?-Auditor Venkat here. Connect to sir.
He asked not to disturb for one hour.
Very important matter. Urgent.
Ok, one minute.
Wait a minute sir.
Sir?
[car horn]
[Phone rings]
-Hello? -We kidnapped your wife.
Will kill her if you inform the police.
We are very dangerous. Don't mess with us.
If you act smart. We will kill your wife. Careful.
-Will pay later. -Hey, hey.
What happened?
I warned him.
I told him will tell him the amount and place afterwards.
If he informs the police, I said I will kill her.
Will we get the money?
[Phone rings]
Talking from the kidnappers gang.
You informed the police even after we said not to.
Don't underestimate us. We did many murders.
-You killed her?-No. We are letting her go for now.
-With his girlfriend. -Ok.
Hello? Hello?
Hello?
Hello? Hello?
-What happened? -Cross connection.
-Cross connection? What if someone heard? -Don't panic for everything.
-You always do like this. -Ok, I will take care. You go.
-Why are you listening to personal talks. -For money.
-Will give. Let's go. -Let's go.
The police are here, sir.
The police are here. Police. Ok.
[Grunts]
My wife.
My...
Your wife. Your wife.
My wife.
[Crying] My wife.
[Crying]
My wife.
Damn good. Damn good.
My wife.
My wife. My wife.
Hello?
Madam.
Why is she not getting up?
Get some water.
Madam.
Hello. Madam.
-What happened? Is she... -No no.
Madam?
You poured full bottle of chloroform.
-See what happened? -I don't have experience.
-All because of you. -Hey, we both did it together.
-Only to take care of your problems. -Think what to do now.
-Shall we bring a doctor? -Doctor? To this place?
What will we tell him?
-Shall we leave her in her home? -How will we get her there?
What should we do now?
Let's escape from here.
[Screams]
Don't shout.
If you open your mouth...
Mr. Subba Rao, please control yourself.
What did he tell you on the phone?
He said no details.
Where to bring the money.
How much to bring.
He said he will tell afterwards.
When did he said he will call again?
Didn't say that too.
At what time she came back home yesterday?
Don't know. I am in office at that time.
I see.
Do you suspect anyone?
Suspicion?
What do you know about her greatness?
She don't even talk in high tone to anyone.
She can't even hurt an ant.
Can you get me some water?
Thanks, sir.
Please save her somehow.
-Save her. -You don't get upset.
Is something happens to your wife...
Who might get benefited?
Benefit? [Coughs]
I told you already.
She can't hurt an ant.
Who will get benefited from her death?
Please.
Investigate this faster.
And bring my Vijaya home.
Ok Ok.
You please relax.
-Will meet you again. -Thank you, sir.
It seems he's over acting.
[Phone rings] Hello?
We are talking from the kidnappers gang.
Last time it got disconnected due to cross connection.
See. You informed the police instead of saying not to.
We are letting it go for now.
Our people are watching your actions all the time.
Get one lakh ready.
Will tell you the place and time after some time.
See. Don't act smart.
You know the outcome of it.
They are asking two lakhs.
Two lakhs.
Madam... didn't tell me about this, sir.
Madam had no idea that she will be kidnapped no?
[Music from tape recorder]
Renu, where is Bose?
Same pose from long back. Not telling me what happened.
-See that face. -His face is like that always.
Hey, my favourite song.
Hey [Screams]
Chakri, stop.
Are you mad?
Chakri please.
Tell me what happened.
I'll tell you. He's planning to manage your father.
Get me a coffee. Go.
-What happened? -Asked 1 lakh.
-Did he agree? -I warned him.
I said we will kill her if he informs the police.
"Listening this bad news."
"Will he get to fight. Or get the money."
"He won't care for money."
"And get his wife killed."
"We did plan, partner."
"But I doubt it."
"Shut up."
"You coward."
"Talk good things."
"Even in the start."
"Don't think like that. Hey."
Don't you have the hope? Say?
"What if our time is bad?"
"What if the wind changes suddenly?"
"We will face 10 years of jail."
"Here is the money. Hear me, where ever you are."
"Come here kidnapper."
[Humming]
"Leave my wife."
"Send him to my home."
"All this property is waste."
"If I don't have her."
"I will give away my life, but can't lose you."
"Even if you are in the hell."
"I will come to you."
"Even if you are in the hell."
"I will come to you."
"Your wife is more to you than your life."
"I hope I will get the luck."
"To die in your hands."
"I hope I will get the luck."
"To die in your hands."
"Eureka, saka mika."
"We got the luck."
"We got the money. We got new life."
"We got easy finance."
"Do crazy romance."
"Eureka, saka mika."
"We got the luck."
"There's a girl who's ready for marriage."
"And the groom is right in front of you."
"Groom is in front of you."
"Why are you wasting the time, uncle."
"Father-in-law."
"Our marriage is getting late because of you."
"He had no property."
"He can't take care of her needs."
"What will you feed your wife?"
"Will you feed her grass?"
"Get lost you waste fellow."
"Marriage doesn't suit your face."
"You can't feed your own self."
"You want an extra person depending on you?"
"Should I stay like this forever?"
"Tell me father."
"Should I forget about marriage?"
"Oh my mad father."
"He brought the money."
"Let us get married right now."
"You are so happy with this money."
"Give you daughter immediately."
"Money is his, enjoyment is yours."
"Refreshing cola. Refreshing cola. Thums Up."
Hey. You called Subba Rao?
Called him many times. Seems not at home.
Where might he be?
May be roaming for money in tension.
[Screams] [Laughs]
Hi.
Did you get to know anything?
If you don't mind. Speed up a little.
I am dying with her memories at home.
That's why...
Came here to divert my mood.
And yeah.
Is the investigation seeing any progress?
Yes.
Shit.
She had the bat. She will hit us?
We had the knife no? Follow me.
Then move.
I'll hit you if you come close.
I will kill you.
Throw it away.
My friend's husband is IG.
With one call I can end you.
Open the door.
Throw it down.
Now.
Bose.
Take care of her.
[Coughing]
What happened?
Effected with cold, sir.
Head is bursting out.
-What's the matter? -Rent...
It's Ok. I'll come again. Take rest.
Thanks, sir.
What?
I'll take care of her. Go get some food.
That poor Bose is effected with cold. Also head ache and all.
Is it? He's ok in the morning!
-Get him some tablets. -Ok.
-Bose? -We had our people all around the house.
Listen to us and we will leave you unharmed.
If you try to escape... Will kill you.
Bose. Who's that inside?
-Who's that? -Come out first.
Renu, please. Don't make a scene. Listen to me.
Hey.
Who do you want?
-Manikyam. -Manikyam?
-Who's he? -Hey.
My close friend.
Stop blabbering and get lost.
Hey.
Hey, go back. Go back.
Hey get back. Why are you eating my brain?
Are you real fans? Weren't you educated?
I beg you. Go back please.
One minute. Please wait.
Hey go back.
What kind of fans you are!
Where did you come from. Look at your face.
Hey get back. Where are you going? Get back now.
I am saying to you only. Come back.
Hey Manikyam. Do you have any sense?
Are you eating grass instead of rice?
Did you send the car to the airport for the heroine?
I asked for film, but you drink and sleep instead?
I didn't drink much.
-It's my daily amount. -Shut up and get lost.
If I see you in the studio again, I will shoot you.
Asks for work and then drink and sleep. Idiot.
What brother, you look moody?
What else can I do? Shall I die?
Nageswara Rao sir gave me the whole studio responsibility.
How can I manage all of it?
That producer is irritating me like hell.
That Bombay artist, with shaved head and height.
-Yeah Amrish Puri. -Yeah the same.
He's not here and now they are asking me to take that role.
You?
Hey, Small sir.
Who's Small sir?
Nagarjuna.
Ok. Ok, sir. I will try my best.
Nagarjuna.
Asking me to come for dinner. I am not free no?
I already said Bala Krishna that I would come.
Bala Krishna?
There are only two ways to grow in this industry.
One.
Means, small roles first.
Roles with dialogues next.
Then bigger roles.
Then becoming a Hero. Means growing with hard work.
Like Chiranjeevi.
Or... At once.
Nagarjuna in Vikram. At once.
Kaliyuga pandavulu. Venkatesh.
Decide what you want in these two.
Second one is better.
Then we can make our own movie.
You invest 10 lakhs.
Financier will invest 60 lakhs.
Can finish in 40 lakhs and save 20.
Playing around with Khan?
-60 plus 10? -70.
-How much is the budget? -40.
-Saving? -30.
Why did you lie saying 20?
Your body will go missing.
30...
[Movie song playing]
-So what should we do now? -Establish an office.
You are telling all this. But...
Will this face suit movies?
No. No. How many time should I tell you?
You need to have confidence. You don't believe your face?
Ok. Manikyam. You tell him.
"Wow, what a face!"
"You look like a hero, boss."
"You got a movie chance."
"Take a daring step."
"Wow, what a face!"
"You look like a hero, boss."
"You got a movie chance."
"Take a daring step."
"The audience should go crazy."
"Seeing you dance with lots of energy."
"Do as we say and the future will be yours."
"Wow, what a face!"
"You look like a hero, boss."
"What is the difference between you and Amithab Bachan?"
"Even in the Hollywood."
"How's greater than you?"
"Don't you know how to fight, dance and sing?"
"Even Chiranjeevi is not Mega Star by birth."
"Until you risk everything, you can't see heaven."
"Balayya and Venkatesh."
"Nagarjuna and Naresh."
"Rajendra and Suresh."
"Rajashekar and others."
"Finally they all should pack bags with your stroke."
"Wow, what a face!"
"You look like a hero, boss."
"If you are here outside, they will call you goon and rowdy."
"If you do the same things in a movie."
"They will praise you."
"Make-up is all the difference."
"They will say your presence is enough."
"There's no need of story also."
"They will put cut outs for you."
"They will fight for the tickets."
"The plan is nice, but..."
"What if it backfires?"
"Stop thinking nonsense."
"Start drinking less Khan."
Get lost.
"Don't irritate me like unlucky bird."
"Wow, what a face!"
"You look like a hero, boss."
"You got a movie chance."
"Take a daring step."
Girlfriend.
One on the line and one in live?
She's my girlfriend.
Do that thing. Yeah.
Not one lakh. I will give you two then.
Next time don't call me without killing my wife.
Don't waste my time.
I am a busy man. Ok?
Hello?
-We are finished. -What happened?
-He says he will pay if we kill her. -Kill her?
Not here. Let's go.
-Sir my money. -Write in the book.
What is this? He says he will pay if we kill her.
What do I know?
There might be fights in between them.
Leave that matter.
Our kidnapping plan is super flop.
Think what we should do with her.
Bose, I think...
You already did a mistake.
Listen to me and tell her everything.
Yeah. I too think that's better.
We need to talk to you.
What?
We kidnapped you only out of helplessness. We are not criminals.
-Means? -We got no jobs, even after trying hard.
On top of that he loved our house owner's daughter.
He won't accept without money and job.
We did this because we wanted money to solve our problems.
In fact, we had no money even to pay our room rent.
Bose, why did she need all that information?
Aunty. Your house is right behind.
You can go right now.
They did this without knowledge.
But please don't inform this to the police.
I am requesting you on behalf of them.
Vijaya madam, this might be so confusing to you.
I don't know how I should tell you this.
We demanded 1 lakh from your husband.
But he says he will pay 2 lakhs, if we kill you.
Kill me?
[Phone ring]
-Hello? -We are talking from the kidnappers gang.
-Who's she? -Girlfriend's mother.
That one? Or this one?
-Mind your business. -Ok.
Useless fellows.
How many times should I tell you?
Kill her immediately.
If two lakhs is not enough.
I will give you five lakhs.
Five lakhs. [Smiles]
Whom should we hire as the director?
Is Raghavendra Rao Ok?
Raghavendra Rao?
Will he accept me as the hero?
What? I am everything to him from the beginning.
Hello? Hello.
Illayraja? Brother.
It's Manikyam. Talking from Hyderabad.
Need music for a Telugu movie.
It is Ok?
Thank you very much.
He will come.
Illayraja will come?
Everyone is fixed.
But...
Who is the heroine?
Sridevi Ok?
What?
-To where? -Inside.
Don't get excited.
You are the hero for her.
You will lose value in direct meets.
Hand me the cash box.
-Take care of the money. -Ok Ok.
-What do you want? -Sridevi madam.
She's in Bombay. Who are you?
Manikyam's friend.
Who's Manikyam?
He just came in with money box.
-To book her as heroine. -Heroine?
-Yeah. -Beside whom?
-Beside me. -Beside you?
He said not to disturb him for one hour.
After one hour the auditor wanted to talk to him urgently.
I connected him to his room.
He haven't replied for so long.
So I finally went into his room.
But Subba Rao sir is not there.
I see.
Did anyone who's not from the office come here to meet him?
Never. But one day.
A man named Das came. Sir was so tensed that day.
And he scolded me for telling him that sir is inside.
Thanks for cooperating.
-You know Chiranjeevi? -Chiranjeevi means...
-Mega Star. -Yeah I know, sir.
In the beginning.
Now?
Reason?
Sir! [Laughs]
Mohan Babu.
Villain in the beginning.
Now?
Hero. Reason?
-Sir me too, sir. -Ok Ok.
Just like you.
A boy came from Athili.
Asked me to make him a hero.
I did.
I asked whom do you want as heroine beside you.
-Should know his level. -Yes.
He said he want Sridevi for his face.
Sridevi.
[Screams]
Stop.
Manikyam.
What inspector sir?
Did you get any clue?
You are under arrest.
-Police arrested Subba Rao. -What?
Arrest?
-When? -Who told you?
She's Subba Rao's wife no?
Hey, let's go find out.
Renu.
She's Subba Rao's wife no?
Ha... Dad.
Subba Rao's wife or not?
-I will explain. -Ok.
-I and Bose love each other. -Yes.
Then what happened is...
Tell me if she's Subba Rao's wife or not.
You know they had money problems.
-Subba Rao's wife or not? -That's why...
-Out of the pressure... -Subba Rao or not?
Dad, she's not Subba Rao. His wife.
Is it? What!
'Where is the body?' is my question.
Tell me. Tell me I say.
Where is it?
Tell me I say.
I want to ask you.
To say that there's been a murder.
There should be a body at least right?
Ok. There is a requirement.
Then tell me now.
Where is the body?
Tell me.
They arrested him in the name of circumstantial evidence, Ok.
But without any evidence.
How can you send my client to police remand?
Where is the body?
That's my question.
Ok. Leave all those.
Isn't it obvious from his face?
Tell me?
Your honour.
My Vijaya is my life.
Like I love my wife.
Even the Rama might not have loved Sita.
Under insufficient evidential act.
Because of lack of evidences.
Court thinks of Subba Rao as innocent.
And lets him free.
Mr. Subba Rao.
Hey... Money?
Subba Rao. Take care of the body.
-Body? -See Subba Rao.
No matter if you are innocent or a criminal.
I am no your side because I am your lawyer.
If what police said is true and
they get your wife's dead body. I can't do anything.
Hands up.
Five lakhs if not two. Kill her.
Hello? Hello?
[Phone rings]
Hello? Subba Rao here.
Kidnappers gang.
We killed your wife and threw her body in the Malakpet bungalow.
No no. Don't kill her.
You asked to kill her the last time?
Son, son. I am mad then to say so.
Now don't kill her. Don't. Don't.
Do we look like idiots to you. No chance.
[Screams]
Oh my god.
[Grunts]
[Whistling]
Hey.
[Screams] No. Don't over act.
Hey hey. Who's this guy?
Khan Dada. A little short fellow, but
-he's almost equal to Chiranjeevi. -I will catch your feet.
What did I do to you? Why are you playing with me?
-Why is he catching your feet? -You are asking why?
I believed his words and stabbed that Manikya Rao.
Now I fear the police.
That's why hiding in these bungalows.
It's been five days since I ate, sir.
Give me 5 rupees, sir.
Where are you going?
Hey.
What wrong did I do to you?
Why are you are killing me like this.
Don't know if he had the money.
But I am begging him 5 rupees for food.
I never thought I would come down to this.
Because of what he did... Oh my god. [Police siren]
Oh my god the police came.
Why is Khan Dada here?
What are you doing here. Go go go.
[Whistles]
I didn't stab Manikya Rao wantedly.
He played games with me, so I stabbed.
I am just a small goon, sir.
You know that Chakravarthi? The bearded one.
He said I am just after Chiranjeevi. Not just once.
He said four times. So I believed it.
After that Manikya Rao said.
He will make me a hero.
And make a movie with Sridevi as the heroine.
Seems like a mad fellow. Lock him up.
No, sir. It's all true. I am not mad.
[Scary humming]
[Devilish song playing]
[Screams]
What's all this?
You understood what happened right?
She gave jobs to Bose and Chakri in her company itself.
And Vijaya madam also got Renu and Bose married.
Everyone is so happy from then on.
Everything went very well.
That's the story. Ok? Bye.
Hey, wait a minute.
I forgot about Subba Rao.
[Distant chatter]
Look here idiot. You spoilt my clothes.
Will slap you across your face.
-And make you cry like... -Hey leave him no. Let it go.

He thought his wife is dead.
And believed that police are still searching him for her murder.

"Money said that it will be a friend to the king and the beggar."
"It's not our mother's relative, or father's."
" Still it said it was everything for us."
"Let's buy the time."
"Said the money."
"Let's see the magic of it."
"Said the money."
"As if it is your heartbeat."
"Keep the money in your heart."
"Take oath and marry the goddess of wealth herself."
Money, Money and Money.
Money is everything...
