So we have elected Mary as the annual day committee convener
for the year.
Expecting that you all will cooperate with me
I am taking charge as the Convener.
Let's get to the important part.
Usually, the funds provided by the company
won't be enough to conduct the annual day.
This time, we should find out a solution for it.
It's okay, all of us should contribute a small amount.
That won't be necessary.
Let's conduct annual day with whatever funds the company gives.
That won't be fine. Let's make this annual day a grand event.
Grand? Do you have plans to conduct a procession?
You can expect fireworks.
Those who aren't ready to contribute money, keep quiet.
Let's discuss about the events. We should make our family members
participate in the events this time.
Then we can have a performance by Mary's husband.
Mary had once told that he is a great musician.
Yes.. He is a talented musician.
God!
Chilli powder!
Coriander powder!
Turmeric powder!
Dear, I have to go to the office.
Get me turmeric powder.
Don't cry, dear. Dad is coming!
Dear, feed this milk to the baby.
Dad, you do it. - Curry will go bad if I leave now.
Then it will be tasteless. - As if it's so tasty.
Eat this if you want. Your mom left for the office early morning.
Why didn't you tell her to cook some tasty food and leave?
Mary, what happened?
As people from other branches will be attending the function
the welcome speech should be in English.
Then we can ask Ashwathi's husband to deliver the welcome speech.
After all, he is a doctor.
Sorry, he won't have time to come for it.
It's just one day. Ask him to find time.
Even if I tell him, he won't come.
He can't even waste a minute.
He has many patients.
Is a homeopathic doctor that busy?
Yes, he is.
Hey, doctor. You better come outside.
Are you ready to come out or should we come in?
God! Save me!
You don't even know how to prescribe medicines in English.
He should be sent to attend literacy class.
What is it? What is the problem?
As if he doesn't know anything.
Scoundrel! A baby who took the medicine you had prescribed
for cold is admitted in the hospital.
We have booked another bed next to that for you.
But isn't the child admitted in the children's ward? - Don't worry.
We will make sure that you are in a condition to get admitted there!
Come out! Or else, we will come inside.
Hey, no.. I will come out. After all, we know each other.
Don't worry, Doctor. I am here. - That's why I am afraid.
If you don't know English, why can't you prescribe in Malayalam?
He is not here to treat us, but to kill us.
Don't create an issue.
You.. - Hey.. - God! Save me!
Sorry, he can't come.
Hey, don't tell him that he has to deliver a speech.
Why? Do you think he is afraid of delivering a speech
in English?
My husband and I studied in an English medium school.
Yes, I know that. That's why you misspelt permission
as promotion yesterday.
I am the one who corrected it.
Oh! Don't feel proud about it.
Considering the qualification for an upper division clerk
I am the one who is overqualified.
What is the use of it? Over qualification is a drawback.
Work experience is of prior importance.
Don't talk much about experience.
You don't have any experience other than your argument skills. - Stop..
Don't start an argument over this.
Ma'am, she is jealous that I am the convener of the annual day.
You are jealous.
She is jealous that I will become the Superintendent
once you retire, as I am more qualified.
Don't dream about it.
I am more experienced.
So I will become the Superintendent.
Let's wait and see. - Okay.
Enough.. Stop it..
We can't continue this discussion in such a situation.
Shall we change the situation? - Shut up!
Ma'am, don't we have to take some decisions about it? - Yes.
We can't take a decision until they don't stop fighting.
Let the Manager make further decisions.
I can't waste my time settling your disputes.
Sir, I didn't do anything wrong.
I didn't create any issue.
That's right. I am the one who creates all the issues.
I should be blamed for all this.
My mistake is that I am letting you both work
here even after you having created too many issues.
I cannot tolerate this.
Forgive us for this time, sir.
We won't repeat it again, sir. - Whatever it is
I can't tolerate this anymore. I am going to report it
to the Head office now itself.
Stop crying.
I forgive you.
Don't ever repeat it.
Both of you can sign in the register and get back to work.
'MISTER AND MISSUS.'
Hello.
I.. Sir.
Okay, sir. I will bring it right away.
Tea.
Let me ask you something.
Why are you making the Manager of a firm do the duties of a peon?
Why do you have that doubt now, Zakaria?
It's not that I felt it now.
I had thought of asking about it for a long time now.
I should go collect the loan amount and also get you tea.
If this continues, you will make me your servant soon.
What am I supposed to do?
You must appoint a peon or a maid.
Okay. Just do one thing. Write here.
Is it the appointment order?
We'll write it later. First, give me your resignation.
Hey, do you know why I didn't fire you
when I fired everyone else?
Because I know that you will do any job.
If the board saying, Manager
is the problem
then throw it off somewhere. - Let it stay there, sir.
My social status relies on it.
You may go, Zakaria. - Well.. - What?
I didn't get my salary.
You won't. You won't get it from me.
Didn't you give money to someone?
To Mr. Alavuddin. He hasn't returned a single penny yet.
So what. - So what?
I'll count your salary as his repayment. Enough?
Not enough. Kill me.
I work so hard, but you won't pay me. - I didn't say I won't pay.
Get it from him.
He has to give you the salary.
Mark my words
my party and I have never tried to run away from problems.
And will never. What?
There is nothing wrong in selling our gold abroad.
We must repay our debt. That's fair, right?
Don't we need to pay the cash, Zakaria? I was looking for you.
I came for that money. Give it to me.
Come.. How can I give if you ask suddenly?
Do one thing. Go now. About the cash.. Come tomorrow.
I'll tell you a date. - Don't play with me.
Give me the cash. - Please don't insult me.
You'll ruin my image. - Let your bad image get ruined.
Do you know? I haven't got my salary yet.
I'm not going to get it.
We'll conduct a strike then. - Not strike. I know what to do.
I did you a favour because you were my friend..
If you're trying to threaten me, I know what to do.
What'll you do? - Are you serious, Zakaria?
Yes, I'm serious.
I want to know what you're going to do. - Watch it.
Stop there, Alavuddin.
Who kept the bike here?
Why isn't it starting? Stop.
Stop, Zakaria.
Are you in a hurry? - Yes. - But I'm not.
What happened, Poulose? - What's today's date?
First. - What's the day? - Nice day.
I wasn't asking about that. I was asking about the date.
Date.. The festival at Arthungal Church..
That's not today. - What? - Isn't it the rent? - Yes..
I'll give you. - Give it. - I'll give you. - Give it.
Not today, I'll give it tomorrow.
I didn't get my salary today. - You'll say the same on the 1st.
If I ask on the 2nd, you'll say that you spent it all.
There is no date in between to ask.
What should I do? - I'll give it tomorrow.
That won't do.
There is no one in one portion.
How will I live without your rent?
Do you have to live with this amount?
Your wife is in Dubai.
Both your kids are in Dubai.
What else do you want?
Hey. - Yes. - Don't flatter.
What? - Don't try to flatter!
I'm not being rude since I know your problems.
I don't need the rent now.
Give me the rent tomorrow morning.
I don't mind even if you don't pay.
Just vacate the house. Okay. Go..
'There is colour and horn' - 'For the cow.'
'For the cow.' - 'Beautiful.' - Give the rest of your salary.
Let me pay his rent.
There is nothing left. - What?
I gave it as donation for our annual day function.
Rs. 500? You could've given Rs. 10 or Rs. 5.
I just gave Rs. 51. That's when she gave Rs. 501.
Who? - Who else. Ashwathi.
I gave Rs. 501 when she gave.
I won't let her insult me.
What rubbish! Why would she do that?
To hell with it!
Hello. Is this the house for rent?
Yes, this portion. - Okay.
This thing won't let me sleep. I'll..
It's not from this?
What.. Are you playing? - No, I was..
Who're you? - I'm Dr. Balu.
Dr. Balu. Come..
Why didn't you tell me? - I was standing outside.
Sit down.. - Yes.
Should I describe or do you need to see?
How can I without seeing it..
Not because I'm shy. Here.
Here, inside this. Look. - Hey!
Why are you showing it to me?
Then why are you here, Doctor? - I came to see the house.
I see.
I respected you thinking you're the doctor from City hospital.
Sorry.
So you want to rent the house? - Yes.
I see. It's not for rent..
I heard that there is a house vacant.
That's true. It's not this, but the next portion.
That's enough. That's better for me.
That may be good for you. But it's not good for me. - Why?
I don't give it to unknown people. That's it.
Don't give to unknown people. It's good.
But since we've acquainted now.. - It's not enough.
No? - Not at all.
No, we'll get to know well after renting it.
Aren't you leaving? Go.
No. - What? - I'll take a look.
No. Look after yourself.
Just to disturb my sleep.
Zakaria. - Balu.
Hey, do you stay here? - Yes.
Why are you here? - I came here to take a look at the house.
Then?
He doesn't want to give it since I'm unknown to him.
Is that it? - Yes. - Come.
He's my friend, Poulose.
We used to share an apartment
eat together
for around 20 years.
So you were poor?
He's very funny.
Zakaria. - Yes. - Don't flatter.
What.. - No, I won't.
I'll give him the house because he's your friend.
But one condition.
The rent.. - Don't worry about the rent.
I'll give, if he doesn't.
That's not it.
He must give if you don't.
I'll give you the house only then.
It's not a joke. Do you agree?
- Yes.
I am ready. What about you? - Then I'm ready.
What?
Even though you were here for so many years
I didn't know.
Not in the city. I live 40 kilometres from here.
Edavanakad. I don't leave the dispensary much.
Why are you moving?
That.. There is a reason. I'll tell you.
You didn't say why.
Nothing. Too many patients.
There is no rest. It's good that I got a house near yours.
My wife will be relieved as well.
There is no one to talk to in the place we live now.
All she has to talk with me is what happened at her office.
There is someone working with her. A monster.
She always complains about her.
I'm in the same situation.
Is it? - Someone's working with my wife.
A devil.
I've turned deaf hearing about her.
So our wives too will become friends
because of our meeting after six years.
And finally we will get a break from the bickering.
Come.
He is Poulose. She is my wife.
Are you moving in today? - No, after a couple of days.
I need to go home before that. - Where is your home?
Home.. It's not proper Trivandrum, still, it's Trivandrum.
Are you both from Trivandrum? - Yes.
Was yours a love marriage? - Yes.
But we loved after the wedding.
What is it? - Nothing.
Here's the key. - Didn't Zakaria and his wife arrive?
No, it will take time.
Then let me unload everything.
Why are you doing it? They will do it.
Get it down.
I'll go up. - No, they'll do it.
I was saying, I'll go upstairs.
I've a lot to do.
Have to grind rice and cook chutney. - What? - The other way.
Pray and get in, even if it is a rented home.
This is the bedroom.
We'll keep the bed like this.
There is better ventilation here.
Where is the east? - The east is here, no, it's the bathroom.
I have no idea which is east here.
Let us ask Mr. Poulose.
Where is the kitchen? - It is there.
How is it? - It is good.
Your selection is always good.
I know you like everything that I choose for you. - Come on.
Unload it carefully.
Hey, why are you so late? - I left early.
But I got late by the time I picked my kids from school.
And my vehicle is not in good condition.
Go on. Let me help them. - Okay.
Be careful. Don't break it.
Keep it there.
Slowly. You can do it slowly.
Be careful! That is foreign.
Come on. I will introduce you to my wife.
We have lots of time for that.
Let us unload these first. - Okay.
Come on. Let me help you.
Slowly.. Keep it on my head.
Hey! Somebody help me.. Damn!
How can you be so careless? - But, I..
This.. - Okay, keep it upstairs. - Oh, God!
I should not have taken this up.
What? Hey! What have you done?
How can you just keep the sofa midway?
But.. - If you have taken up a work, you should do it sincerely.
Ashwathi! Do you know whom you are speaking to? - That..
Come on, Mary.
This is my wife. - Hello. - This is his wife.
This is my friend. - This is Zakaria. - What?
Are you Mary's husband? - Yes.
Did you think he was a coolie?
We are not so substandard!
Oh, no! I didn't mean anything.
Just a minute. - Okay.
Oh, God! Does this witch stay here? - Hey! Shut up!
I didn't know that his wife was the witch.
If I knew before, do you think I would have allowed
them to stay here?
Whatever it is, I cannot let her be our neighbour.
I would rather stay in hell! - Hey!
It would be scorching in hell right now.
Think about some other place. - Hey!
I have told my opinion.
I want you to look for another house for us to stay.
But how can I arrange for a house so fast?
I don't need any excuses!
You can tolerate her and stay here if you want to.
But I will go back to my house.
Oh, God!
Didn't you find any other house?
What is the use in discussing about it now?
Just do what you do. That's it.
But still why this house?
Hey, didn't I tell you that Zakaria arranged this house for me?
How can I tell him that I cannot stay here because of his wife?
You have to tell him!
I cannot tell him.
You don't understand our friendship.
If your friend is more important to you than me
then I have nothing to say.
If I knew that she had been complaining
about your wife till now, I would have stopped her from it.
Even I was unaware of it.
If I had known, I would have given her a tight slap. - What?
I was talking about slapping my wife.
What should we do now?
If you have any problem with me
staying there.. - Hey, what are you saying?
I want you to stay there itself.
If our wives are enemies, we should try to make them friends.
But that is not an easy job. - That's right.
So let us plan accordingly to get them to like each other.
Take the example of a get together. - Okay.
We will first organise a lunch for both of you. - Okay.
The next day, we will come to your house. - All right.
Likewise after a few meetings, they well forget their enmity.
Are you sure? - Of course!
All right then. - Yes!
What? You want me to invite her to my house?
She will invite us as well.
No way! I will never go to her house!
How can you be so sure about that?
Look, don't make me lose my temper!
Then try to control your temper. That's it.
I will invite them here and we will accept their invitation as well.
That is for sure! - If she steps inside this house
then I will stop going for work! - What? - I am serious!
"Here comes our highness.. Hurray!"
What is your actual problem?
Do we have any expensive items in this house
other than this old radio? - What?
Then what about me?
Do we have a TV, VCR or a washing machine?
Don't you already know that we don't have any of it?
But all my colleagues think that we have them.
What do you mean?
I see. So you have created a false image
of yourself in front of your colleagues.
That is because she boasts about the things in her house.
So you could not stop yourself, right?
Then you should have told them that we have an elephant as well.
Hey, there is a limit to bragging.
I will stop bragging and tell them the truth!
I will tell everyone that my husband is a good for nothing.
"Here comes our highness.. Hurray!"
Don't underestimate me!
If I make up my mind, I can buy all these things right now!
Don't you believe me? Do you want to see?
Have you gone crazy?
Your father is crazy!
Don't drag my dad into this.
If you are so adamant
then show me your capability. Let me see!
I will bring it. But it is just for your sake.
Similarly, you should obey me as well.
I want you to behave well when my friend and his wife comes here.
Do you agree? - Okay.
"You adorned yourself and walked"
"gracefully into my life."
Where did you get these from?
Why do you need to know all that?
Will you ever doubt my capability?
Did they arrive? - I think so.
I heard the sound of their vehicle early in the morning.
Look! Did you see that?
Wow! Nice girl. - Girl?
I was talking about that board.
Look at the way they have placed it.
He is a doctor and he must have a name board.
What is so surprising about it?
Usually the board is placed in such a way that people
walking past can see it.
But why is it placed facing us? Such arrogance!
Idiot! That gate is open right now.
When it is closed, the board will face the road.
At least say a good morning when you see her.
What a plight!
We want 'Indian Express' from today. - Okay.
Good morning, Ashwathi. - Good morning, Mary.
English newspapers are a must for my husband.
He hardly reads Malayalam newspapers.
Where is our 'The Hindu' newspaper?
What? Haven't you been reading 'Malayala Manorama' till now?
Rubbish! Are you high early in the morning?
Don't you remember that you used to put 'The Hindu' here? - No.
Even my husband hates reading Malayalam newspapers.
Anyway, give me 'The Week' magazine as well.
Do you want a week? - What?
'The Week' weekly. - Why? - Here, take it.
Have they started printing 'Malayalam Manorama' in English?
Hey! This is not our newspaper.
Rascal! He is so careless.
From today on, you should read English newspapers.
But I cannot understand it. - That is all right.
I see. They would be reading English newspapers, right?
Right. Then why don't we subscribe to Marathi or Guajarati newspaper?
You will never appreciate whatever I do.
Hey, I was just kidding.
Anyway, we can get more money by selling old English newspapers.
Instead of wasting your time arguing
go and prepare something to eat.
They will be here at 12 p.m. Come on.
Come, I will also help you.
There you are!
Why are you so late? - What? - I wanted you ask you this
but you are here on time. Sit down..
Mary, look who is here.
This is Annie, our first daughter.
It is usually said that the first kid should be a son.
Who doesn't like a change?
So we thought of going for a daughter first and son next.
We have not yet decided about our third child.
Come here, dear.
Which grade are you in? - UKG.
Which school? - St. Mary's. - Nice!
No! Why didn't you get her an admission in St. Antony's?
How can a kid study in two schools at the same time?
Is everything ready? - Of course!
Let us proceed to the dining hall.
Balu. - Yes? - Taste this beef curry.
This is my wife's special preparation. - Is it?
No! We don't eat beef. It is not good for health.
Okay, then have some chicken. - Sure.
Oh, no! But this is fried. It is full of oil.
He is not supposed to eat it.
Then you can eat vegetables.
This is my special preparation. Tomato curry. - Okay.
Should we eat tomato? It will lead to kidney stones.
It is so hot here, isn't it?
You are right. But we cannot starve for that reason.
I am really hungry.
Zakaria, serve me that beef.
Some tomato curry as well.
How can you fry chicken without oil?
It is very tasty.
When we were in college
he used to eat from everyone's lunchbox. I did the same.
Those were good times.
Eat..
Eat.
Eat something. - I am not hungry.
Sorry. I am going to sleep. You can come later.
Ashwathi!
Why did you make me do this?
Do you know how long I had to work to prepare all this?
Won't you have food? - I am not hungry, too.
I don't know why, but I am starving. - Same here.
So our first attempt was a failure.
Perfect timing. No one is here.
Some Manager! Right!
Good afternoon, sir.
Did you see? No. Did you eat? No. Are you eating?
Sorry, sir. I couldn't get here in the morning.
Okay. Being late is the problem, is it? - Yes.
No. - How many days was your leave?
When I got there at 4:30 p.m. the train at 3:30 p.m. left.
Then the Nedukandam Fast at 10:30 p.m. left at 7:30 p.m.
I don't want to hear all that.
Answer me for what I asked you.
Two days. - How many days has it been?
13 days till today and the half day today.
Total it's 13 and a half days of absence, sir.
But I have a reason, sir. - What reason?
You aren't sincere towards your job. That's the reason.
Please don't say that, sir.
I am the staff who is the most sincere in this company.
That's why I married a woman from our Trivandrum Branch.
I didn't even take dowry. - Really? - Yes.
But the company wasn't sincere enough towards me.
Do you know, sir? I haven't even been for my honeymoon.
You didn't give me leaves, asking me to work.
Listen. The company values auditing more than your honeymoon.
Hey! Life is not about auditing and files, sir.
Wife and husband should live together.
That's the nature's.. - What? - Well..
That's the truth.
You might be too old to understand it's intensity, sir.
Then I shall do something. - Okay.
I will consider your intensity.. - Okay.
and make a honeymoon quarters above this. - No need, sir.
That might be a little difficult.
You have to do me a favour if you can.
I need a transfer to Trivandrum.
Or else.. - I should transfer your wife here, right? - Yes.
I told you already that it's not going to happen. - Don't say that.
My wife's father takes all her salary.
He can. So what?
He is the one who educated her and got her a job.
Let him take some. - So you are not going to help me.
Didn't I tell you that there is no scope for a transfer?
If it's a mutual transfer, it might work.
Okay. - If your wife wants to come here
someone from here must be ready to go there. Do you understand?
If you want to go there.. - No one wants to come here, sir.
I was asking everyone all this time.
I have done something for your transfer. - Okay.
Don't misunderstand it. - No.
I have sent a lot of complaints about you to the Head office.
If you are lucky, that might get you a transfer
suspension or dismissal.
How long did you wait? It's been a little long.
My boss just told me that you had called.
That's why I am late.
Yes. - What? - Yes.
I have to tell you something.
Let's go inside and talk. - I will get it! - Okay.
Oh, no! What?
Where is my TV and VCR?
Somebody stole it. Let's inform the police.
Wait. Didn't I tell you that I have something to say?
First, let's inform the police. We can talk after that.
Calm down. I have the TV and VCR.
What? - Because it might get damaged here
I took it all to my home. Safely.
I promise that all the things are safe in my house.
Hey! Don't mess with me.
My circumstances.. - What circumstances?
I didn't give the keys to my neighbour
because I thought that they might steal something.
I didn't take it with me because I fear losing it.
I gave it to you to keep it safe.
And you took it all.
Like I said, my circumstances.. - Don't say anything.
Did you take anything else? - I didn't.
Okay. I have to check. - Well I..
I took the pressure cooker. Stove and the gas cylinder, too.
The sugar seems to be less. - I will hit you.
You want to hit me after all this?
Let me tell you something.. - Don't say anything else.
In three months, your gas cylinder
and all the other things will be back here.
In three months?
I need it now. - I can't do that. - What?
You don't have to do anything. I will go and get it.
Hey! Please don't humiliate me.
I have an idea. What?
You can come to my home tonight and steal everything.
Why do I have to steal my things from your home?
Well.. I stole from your house.
Okay. - So you can do that to me, too. As a revenge.
Yes. - Okay. - Yes. - Okay.
My colour TV. Be careful.
Okay. - Hurry up! No one should see you.
Why are you worried? What's the matter?
It's nothing. It's dangerous to stay here. - What danger?
I will tell you later. Go on.
Help me. Okay. Careful.
Be careful! - Who is it?
Who is that?
Turn off the light. Go on.
What? Wait. Who are you?
- You thief!
I know you are drunk. Go on. - What's the matter, sir?
I will tell you later. Go. - You!
Stop there! - What the hell! Let go!
No! The rickshaw is leaving! No! - Stop right there!
You thief! - Rickshaw! - You are the thief around here.
You! - I am not a thief!
That guy took my things.
The rickshaw guy took your TV?
Didn't you see? - You thief!
Your father is the thief! - I have seen a lot of thieves.
You are the first one to curse me. - Hey!
The rickshaw guy took everything. Are you crazy?
You! - I worked hard for it. That's worth Rs. 19,000.
Is that it? - Help me.
He is drunk. - What is it, Mr. Poulose? Who is he?
What? - He is a thief, Balu. - Thief? You!
Bloody thief!
Oh, no!
Oh, God! - Get him! - Thief!
Stop! - Help me! - Stop!
Don't hit me! - Stop!
Listen! - Hit him. - I will!
You hit me! - Zakaria!
Zakaria! - Didn't I warn you? - Yes.
What happened? - What else? - Don't let him go.
Zakaria! - Don't hit him.
Do you know him? - I do.
He works with Mary and Ashwathi. Unnikrishnan. - Yes.
Let go. - Okay. So you steal from your co-workers at night.
No! - Yes.
I will call the police. - Okay. - No!
Everyone makes mistakes. Let him go.
Don't hit him! - Shut up!
No! Let him go! - Shut up! Let him.. Shut up!
Let him speak!
Tell me. - Hit him. - Please, mister. - Yes.
I am not the thief. He is. - What?
He brought all my things here when I wasn't home.
I came here to take it back. - Where are your things?
The rickshaw guy took it all. - What rickshaw? - I don't know.
There he is.
Are you satisfied now?
I went a long way, sir. - Okay.
Then I realized that you weren't inside. - Okay.
I would have got arrested with these expensive things without you.
Thank God you came back.
Now you can take me while I am still alive.
Did you fall? - No. I flew. Let's go!
After that they went inside.
And I haven't seen them till now.
There. She is coming.
Did you watch that cassette, Mary?
I did. - Do you need anything else?
Now she will have to go to Unnikrishnan's house to watch it.
Oh, no! Don't make fun of her.
Someone here might not like it.
Just ignore them.
Don't go back to office today. Go home.
It's not only for today. I am not going for another four months.
I am going to take leave.
How can we manage four months without your salary?
Also, won't your Superintendent retire in three months?
'Parackal chit funds.'
Didn't you say that you might get a promotion?
Will you get that promotion if you take a long leave now?
That's why I am telling you not to take leave.
Once you become the Superintendent, no one will ever make fun of you.
Wait here. I will be back.
We are out of groceries, aren't we?
Let's go to shop.
Let's go to the super market.
It will take a lot of time.
Let's go to a small scale shop. - Listen to me.
Super market is more profitable for us.
Then wait here.
Let me advise boss about his duties.
Don't buy too many clothes. I am broke.
Buy anything.
Don't worry about money.
Show me that one.
Do you want it?
Zakaria.
I was looking for you today morning.
But I didn't see you.
I left early today. - Oh.
How is this Sari?
This is good.
Pack this.
Hey, look.
Didn't we gift your uncle's servant the same Sari?
When? - Did you forget?
It was last week.
Yes. Last week.
Choose what you like.
We will be back. Come here.
I have rented a small house.
At Anjumana Road.
It is a good place to start a dispensary.
I wanted to show it to you.
What about consultation at your house?
There is no use in it.
I can earn more there.
Even if you don't get any patients
you can at least watch girls from there.
Good old days.
How is this?
What is wrong with you?
It's been a while since you have been sitting like this.
She bought a feeding bottle to feed their child.
Why didn't you buy one if you didn't like it?
For what?
To feed the picture?
This won't have happened if we had a baby.
As I always tell you
let's adopt a baby.
And I've always told you no.
Then why are you saying this?
Okay.
Why are you getting emotional?
We will get a child if we adopt a baby.
But we won't become parents.
Let's not a have a child who is not ours.
Why should we adopt?
As the doctor said
a couple had a child 15 years after their marriage.
Let's wait like them.
As long as it takes.
Okay?
Go wash your face
and freshen up.
Go.
Look who is here!
Didn't you go to Sunday school, Annie?
No. - Why?
I am lazy.
Is that so?
Come.
Come, dear.
Sit here.
I will be back. - Okay.
Wow!
Here.
Have it.
Baby.
Look.
Look!
What is this?
You are here? I was searching everywhere for you.
Come here.
Don't ever give her the baby.
Why not? She is good.
I'll slap you.
If you give babies to a barren woman, their lifespan will reduce.
Well..
I have something to tell everyone.
Manger has appointed me as the Convener
of this year's annual day committee.
Applaud!
Unni. - Yes.
Why is there a change?
It was decided that Mary will be the Convener.
Somebody has complained to the Manager
the Mary is not fit for that position.
Yes.
And I will be in charge of it.
This annual day is going to be a mess!
Tell me now if you have any complaints or suggestions.
Don't tell me that I ruined it in the end.
Unnikrishnan. - Yes. - I have a suggestion.
What is it? - Along with the programmes..
Zakaria wants to play flute, right?
It's included. - Not that.
We should conduct a competition for our kids.
Like
fancy dress competition, dance and songs.
Okay. The suggestion is acceptable.
You should.
Because it will help childless people to be happy.
I tried to convince her today as well.
To visit here.
I thought that she might change
her mind is she sees them.
But.. - You can't blame her.
Not everybody is psychologically ready
to adopt a baby.
Don't worry, Balu.
Wait for some more time.
Ashwathi will feel
the need for a kid.
Yes.
It's a good thing
that you changed your mind at least now.
Or else
we might have had to adopt Balu.
Oh, no!
Why did you ring the bell now?
Someone tied the rope to my leg.
This will happen if you fall asleep.
Go and bring Manu.
Okay.
Hey! Wait.
Stop. Little brat!
Will you do this again?
You tried the rope to my leg.
He injured my forehead.
It's okay, dear.
Let us pray to God that at least this time
he gets adopted.
Hey, give it to me.. Come with me! Walk..
Walk.
Hey, I will teach you a lesson today.
Sweet boy!
I will buy chocolates for you.
Good boy.
Come.
He doesn't want anyone else
when Balu is around.
Do you know who this is? - Yes.
Then say, who is it? - Mom.
Come to me, dear.
Mom.
Yes..
"The small things in life that makes you happy."
"It adds colour to your life which gives you more hope."
"Eventually you get into a lot of trouble"
"and life will seem like a boomerang."
"They hide from each other."
"It's between them."
"The small things in life that makes you happy."
"It adds colour to your life which gives you more hope."
"Can you reach your hands to the places where you can see?"
"Even if you can reach your hands, you might fall down."
"Even if he is too small"
"he is as naughty as a little devil."
"Will the dreams close its eyes while you fight each other?"
"Henpecked husbands are a disgrace."
"Life is a competition"
"in which you get hurt at times."
"It's between them."
"The small things in life that makes you happy."
"It adds colour to your life which gives you more hope."
"The little ones"
"who are longing to be appreciated by everyone."
"The henpecked husbands"
"who would do anything for their wives."
"You will get into trouble if you try to cheat."
"There is an end to every mischief you do."
"They fight each other and consider the others slaves"
"in the stage of life."
"It's between them."

"and life will seem like a boomerang."
"They hide from each other."
"It's between them."
"The small things in life that makes you happy."
"It adds colour to your life which gives you more hope."
It would end up really bad if we continue to stay close by.
Besides, if Ashwathi and Mary work together
they will lose their job, too. - Yes.
That manager did not take any action against them
because I requested him not to.
So I am planning to shift my house.
I somehow want to go to my native
by getting Ashwathi a transfer.
You want to go to Trivandrum, right? - Yes.
Then you don't have to worry about the transfer.
We will get it done soon.
How? - I have a solution.
Your wife needs to be transferred to Trivandrum branch, right?
Isn't that your problem? - Yes.
But tell me how.
I will tell you. Come.
Don't be scared, Unnikrishnan. I am also there. Zachariah.
This is.. - You don't have to introduce him.
I know him already. - Oh, no.
It was a mistake.
Did I ask you for an explanation?
Rubbish!
Bloody mistake! - Don't start a fight now.
We have come to arrange your wife's transfer.
What? - Yes.
Why are you standing outside?
Come inside, sit.
Trivandrum is my native. - Okay.
I wish to get Ashwathi transferred to Trivandrum.
So since your wife is trying for a transfer
we can apply for mutual transfer.
Do you have any clue
how long I have been waiting to hear this?
Are you happy now? - Yes.
So everything is done.
When you and your wife live a happy life here
Balu and his wife will have a happy life in Trivandrum.
As a sincere friend
and as a mediator who was able to solve your problems
I am really happy. - Please.
A friend in need is a friend in deed.
Zakaria will be happy.
Zakaria and Mary would become happy
if this mutual transfer takes place.
What are you talking about? - About your best friend's betrayal.
He's playing all these tactics
to make his wife the next Superintendent.
But..
There is only a few more days for the Superintendent to retire.
I'm their first preference
to become the Superintendent.
Do you think that he arranged this transfer
because he likes us?
It's not like that. But.. - He thinks he can fool us
in the name of friendship
and make his wife the Superintendent.
Even if that is his intention, it's fine.
Anyway, we have to go back to our hometown.
Give the application for transfer.
Let's think about it later.
You should go and meet that political leader.
Leader? Whom are you talking about?
I'm talking about your patient, Mr. Kanaran.
Oh! You mean that asthma patient.
Yes. It seems he has good influence in our Head office.
He can help me get this promotion.
So do you want to stay here to get that promotion?
Let's go.. - Balu.
Don't compel me anymore.
If you're not ready to support me
I know what to do.
Doctor! - Yes. - Didn't we give medicines to a political leader?
Yes. - I think you gave him the wrong medicine. - Oh, no!
He's coming here with his gang.
Where?
Please sit down.
Doctor, what do you think of me?
You're the one who cured my asthma
where so many others had failed.
After what you've done for me, do you think I wouldn't help
your wife get a promotion?
Oh, no! But..
You should have told me, Doctor.
I came to know about this from your wife.
I have promised her that I will get her the promotion.
No. It is..
Don't say anything, Doctor. I will take care of everything.
I can get her a promotion in New India Chemicals.
I will do it.
It is.. You don't have to trouble yourself for this.
I don't mind taking trouble for you.
I didn't get the election seat last time because of asthma, Doctor.
Yesterday, I gave a tremendous speech.
I was able to do it because of you.
I wanted to do something in return. Now is the chance.
I will not waste it.
Oh, no. Let me tell you..
Don't say anything, Doctor.
I had told you earlier itself that there is nothing to worry.
Get lost.
Keep this on his table. - Okay.
Unnikrishnan.
Unnikrishnan..
Damn. Rascal. What are you thinking?
I was..
You don't come to office regularly.
You shouldn't be lost in dreams when you come for work.
I didn't do it on purpose. It happened unknowingly.
New India Chemicals is not a place to sit and dream.
I will not do it, sir.
I will not try to dream anymore. Promise.
But I will not neglect this.
I can't even sleep properly.
Hello. Yes.
Yes. We dispatched it to Trivandrum yesterday.
Indu! - Yes.
Is that from Trivandrum? - Yes..
Let me talk to Indu. Please.
Yes. I had sent it yesterday.
Let me talk to Indu. - Keep your mouth shut.
Oh, no. I wasn't talking to you, sir. I am sorry.
Yes.. - Please.
Let me talk to her for a second. - Please have some patience.
Let me talk. - Wait, I will give you.
Hello. - Tell her that it's me. Please. - Call Indu.
Indu. - Someone is restless here.
Yes.. She is Unnikrishnan's wife. Yes.
Hello. It's me Indu.
Someone here is ready for mutual transfer.
You just need to write them a request.
Can I come there taking a leave for two days?
No.. Don't apply for leave.
You have already taken too many leaves.
Okay. I will come there.
So the request for mutual transfer has been given?
Ashwathi.
Ashwathi, did you give the request? - No. - What?
I am not planning to give any request.
What?
Unnikrishnan. - Yes.
Don't try to send me off from here.
Please tell me fast.
Nobody should think that they can be the Superintendent
by sending me away.
You betrayed me.
Did you see what your friend did?
You were so fond of him. What happened now?
He forgot about you when he wanted to help his wife.
Why are you so angry?
A politician has tried to help her. That's it, right?
She didn't get the promotion order yet.
Do you want me to wait till she gets the promotion?
She is going to get the promotion that I deserve.
Her husband always supports her.
You never support me.
Why should I tell you all this?
She married a real man.
You are.. - No.
I am not useless like you think I am.
Don't think that you can make me a useless man.
I can do certain things here.
Do you want to see that?
Even I know a few politicians.
Oh, God. - Stop there, Alavuddin.
No. I won't be able to run. - Stop there.
No. God, he is coming to kill me.
Don't say anything. - I won't harm you.
I want to tell you something. - You want your money, right?
I don't have money. I will give it later.
It's not about the money.
You can stand there and tell me the matter.
I will run if you come here. - Okay..
I won't come there.
You should help me politically.
You should have told this earlier. I ran like a fool. Tell me.
It's a serious problem. You should help me.
I will solve your problem. Tell me.
I can't tell you here. - Let's talk near the juice shop.
Come here. - Did you go there? Damn.
Come over here.
Balu is getting help from the politician Kanaran.
We should get him on our side.
Can you do it? - That's very easy.
Really? - He is a political kingpin.
It's not easy to impress him. - Is that so?
How is your relationship with him? Are you in good terms with him?
Yes. We are in the same party even though we are in different groups.
You should praise us in front of him.
Tell him that we are in your group and belongs to his party.
You can also join his group. - What?
You can change it back after we get what we want.
I can't join his group without any offer.
Leave it. I will do it for you.
Then? - Then you should bring him here.
We will take care of the rest.
We need to get his help for my wife's promotion and his transfer.
Yes. - We need to impress him for that.
We should do it at any cost.
I have found a way for that.
I can handle such important matters.
Unnikrishnan. Please pay him.
This is not enough.
What about the balance? - I will give it later.
First, go arrange everything.
Tell me what you are going to do? - Just wait and watch.
You should wait and watch.
Come on.
All of you can wait here. - Greetings. - Greetings.
I reached today morning from Delhi.
You are always in Delhi.
Sir, please sit here. - Sit here.
Okay.
Oh, no. - Are you okay?
He is Zakaria.
He is the Manager of Parackal Chit funds. - Really?
Parackal Ousep is my friend.
Did he ever tell you about me? - Yes.
He talks about you while having lunch.
I am Unnikrishnan. I am working as a PRO in New India Chemicals.
Sir, I have a doubt.
Why do the party members call you a dealer?
What? - It's not dealer. It is leader.
Yes. - Bring it.
Sir, how long will you be here? - For a couple of days. - Okay.
Move aside.
Keep it here. - Let's start.
Black and white. - Yes.
What is all this?
It's for fun.
What fun? - It is..
I have something else to increase the fun.
Wait..
Is he having an asthma attack? - I think so.
Are you trying to show people that I am a drunkard and a womaniser?
They asked me to bring you here.
AK is not involved in this.
Who is AK?
'A' for Alavuddin. 'K' for Kutty. Alavuddin Kutty.
We did it out of love. - No.
It's because you hate me.
You are trying to defame me because of the fight between the party.
Did you think that I won't understand that it's a trap?
Oh, no. There is nothing like that, sir. - Yes. There is.
I understood that when he came to call me. - Oh, no.
I understood everything after coming here.
I will show you what I am capable of.
Oh, no. Sir. I didn't mean it.. - Zakaria.
Alavuddin, go with him. - Sir.
Please don't create an issue. You have misunderstood us.
Both of us are good. - Even I am good.
Dr. Balu who cured your asthma is my best friend.
Let me go meet him. - Yes.
I will ask him why is he friends with a rascal like you?
Yes. - Oh, no. Sir..
Zakaria, we messed it all up.
It is not a mess. We are in danger.
Yes. We are in danger.
What should I do about that woman?
Please pay her something and send her off. - Are you going?
Yes. - What about me?
Get lost.
Take it. Leave.. - Just Rs. 100?
Are you paying me just Rs. 100 for such hard work?
There was no hard work. - I want my pay at any cost.
If you won't give money, then I don't mind calling the neighbours.
I will call them. - Don't call anyone.
I will give you. - Give it to me.
Take it. - Why are you counting? Leave.
Let me count it.
Is it you, Indu? - Auto..
The one who is standing over there is a fraud. Get the cash soon.
I didn't expect you.
The plan flopped. - I've understood everything.
What have you understood? Indu..
Stop there. It is not what you think.
Indu.. You have misunderstood me.
I haven't misunderstood. I saw it with my own eyes.
It was for our own good. - Is this a good thing?
How will I face the neighbours? - None of them saw it.
Are you not ashamed?
Indu. - Don't touch me.
Go and touch her. - Oh!
Listen to what I have to say.
Don't cry, Indu. Damn!
You are still here?
Where should I go? You tell me that as well.
Dear Zakaria!
I have told you many times
that we don't need your service anymore.
Can't you go now?
But so soon even without a notice period..
I have two children.
You just have two. I have five children
and two wives.
If I give a notice period to you
those political leaders will torture me.
Even if it happens, isn't it cruel to dismiss me? - What?
I mean, don't you know my struggles?
Hey, there is no use in feeling sad again.
You should've thought of this before messing with politicians.
You can go, Zakaria. - What about my security fund?
I will consider it as the money I had loaned to Alavuddin.
You can get it from him.
There is no use in standing here and staring at me.
Leave now. - I am going.
There is no need to send me out.
It is better to be a beggar rather than work for a beggar like you.
It had been a long time since I had given it and I got it today.
It is good that you got it today itself.
Did you see that leader? - Yes.
Is everything okay? - Yes.
But I am the one trapped now.
Whatever it is, make it clear.
There is nothing to be cleared.
Be sincere and work.
Are you not having? - No, I am not hungry.
Then even I am not hungry.
It's so sad that you are still doubting me.
Didn't I tell you each and everything?
And what I've told you is true.
It is your wish whether to believe me or not.
Anyone will have a doubt in a situation like that.
My dear, please don't doubt me.
I will not be able to tolerate it.
Do you trust me? Do you?
Yes. - Indu.
Do you have to leave tomorrow itself? - Yes.
Stay here for one more week.
No, send her after two months.
So you brought a girl
to help me out
but it was for your own sake, wasn't it? - Shut up.
Get lost.
I have fixed my problems. Now I'll fix you up.
I will send a letter to your wife
saying that you are hanging out with different girls daily.
Oh, no!
Sorry, I thought it was the other woman.
What did you say.. - I will..
Indu..
So you had been lying all this time.
Indu..
Let me explain. - No need for that.
Indu, please listen.
I heard it from them.
I don't understand anything. - But I've understood everything.
Indu..
Please listen..
What happened to you, Unnikrishnan? Are you sick?
I have been watching you since morning.
You have only been watching me since morning.
My wife has been monitoring me since the time I left my house.
If I'm late, she'll start to doubt, get nervous and become sick.
Unnikrishnan, that is okay.
These things usually happens in families.
For instance, my husband.. - No..
I have no time to hear all this.
If I don't reach home on time, she will doubt me.
Mary and Ashwathi have to finish this by tomorrow morning. - Yes.
I need it before noon. - Okay, sir.
Mary, are you not going? - No.
I always make sure that I complete my work and then leave.
I am very sincere.
Ashwathi, are you leaving? - Yes, sir.
But I didn't know that there was a lot of work.
Some people don't mind reaching home at midnight.
Their husbands will be there to do the household chores.
But our situation is different.
I understood that you are talking about my husband.
What you told is true.
My husband does the household chores.
But my husband never created a situation where
I had to adopt my husband's kid from an orphanage.
Why did you say like that?
She started it.
But if anyone attacks you, I will not spare them.
I will not allow them to say anything against you.
Please don't create anymore issues.
I will talk to Balu and come to a compromise.
What is there to cry about so much?
She made fun of you in front of everyone in the office.
I will not tolerate that.
I will not be able to tolerate if anyone says anything about you.
Please relax. I will take measures to prevent issues like this.
Let me go talk to Zakaria.
Did Mary say anything? - Did Ashwathi say anything?
Yes, she's really sad.
There is no use in blaming them.
Even we are partly responsible.
Yes. So please control your wife.
What did you just say?
My wife is under control.
Today, it was your wife who started it without a reason.
Women should not be so adamant.
First, control your wife and then worry about mine.
Hey, don't talk like a fool after listening to your wife.
You are the fool here. You believed all that she said.
Get lost! - Balu, come here.
There is no use in talking to a rascal like him.
Hey, it will be better if you control your wife.
You don't have to struggle to control her. I am here to do that.
So you are the one letting her act like this. - Yes.
Even if she calls you a rascal, there's nothing wrong in that.
To get your wife a promotion, you had to hire a prostitute.
You might even make your wife do the same in the future.
Oh, no! - Zakaria! - Leave me.
No! - Mind your tongue.
Otherwise, I will not spare you. - No!
Leave! - Move!
Let's deal with this right now.
No! Please. No!
I will show you. - Zakaria!
Oh, no! - Leave him, Balu.
Please don't fight. - I will..
Oh, no! Balu.. - Zakaria!
How dare you.. - Oh, no!
Balu! Oh, no!
Leave!
Balu..
Zakaria! Listen to me. - Leave me.
Please, no! - Zakaria! - Balu!
Please stop! - Balu! Zakaria!
Listen to me.
Mr. Poulose, move.
I should be blamed for letting you both stay here.
Hey, move aside and stand.
Hey! Stop this fight. - Mr. Poulose, he..
Listen, you can't do such things here.
This is not a place where you can fight with each other.
This is my house. Poulose cottage.
Mr. Poulose, I have been staying here for a long time.
Have I ever fought with any neighbours?
But there were no neighbours.
That is not my mistake. - Then is it mine?
Don't make me say.. - Mr. Poulose.
I had stayed in a lot of houses before I came here.
You can enquire whether I have fought with anyone over there.
That is not my job to do.
I don't need to enquire in order to understand your character.
I've seen everything that you both did..
Please do me a favour. - Okay.
Please vacate the house.
Why should I vacate?
All these problems occurred after his arrival.
Let him vacate.
I give the rent on time. No house owner can kick me out.
I can kick you out.
Balu. - Yes. Zakaria. - Yes.
Don't try to scare me into letting you stay here.
I'll kick both of you out if you don't leave!
Mr. Poulose. Please come here. - What? - Just come with me.
Why should I come? What is the matter?
Come here. - What?
Come here. - Okay.
I can get another house if I want. I'm a doctor.
There are a lot of people who'll let me rent their house. But..
But what? Go rent one of those houses.
That is not the problem, Mr. Poulose.
I can rent a house, but it's hard to find a house owner like you.
I come back from work late. Sometimes it'll be midnight.
My wife is alone here all that time. My only relief
is that you are here.
I won't get this sense of security anywhere else.
I'm ready to give you Rs. 100 or Rs. 150 more for this.
I don't mind if it is Rs. 200 more.
What did you just say? - Rs. 150. - How much? - Rs. 200.
Yes. Don't let him know about this. - Okay. - Yes. Come.
Mr. Poulose. Remember what we talked about.
When are you leaving?
I'll go whenever you ask me to leave
because I don't consider you a house owner, but a father.
I look up to you like a father because I have lost my dad.
Tell me when I should leave.
I won't say anything now. - What!
Jesus said to love your neighbour like you love yourself.
That's all I have to say. Love each other.
Will you be able to do that? - Yes.
Wait. - Yes. - Pay the rent on time.
Jesus Christ.. - Did He say not to pay rent?
No. - Then what is the problem? - There is no problem. - Yes.
Two sets.
It's still dawn and you've already started staring at women.
You can go there and stare if you want.
Indu, I was not looking at her. I was spitting.
If this continues, people will spit on your face.
Why are you packing this now? - Aren't you going today?
You want to hang out with other women after sending me away, right?
Don't take everything I say in a negative light, Indu.
I promise on our parents
that I don't cheat on you with other women.
I packed this because your leave ends today.
Don't worry about my leave. I've asked for a leave extension.
What! Aren't you joining? - No.
You should come there or I should get a transfer here.
That's right. We can't live apart.
Resign that job.
We'll live here with what I get. - I won't let that happen.
You want to make me stay here and live as you wish.
If you can't get me transfer, you should resign and come with me.
We'll live there with my salary.
She probably wants me to sit at home and do what she wants.
What! What did you say? - I didn't say anything.
I said I'll try to get you a transfer.
That's not what you said. - That's what I said.
Don't do this to me. It's like you are suffocating me.
Do you have shortness of breath? - Yes.
Open your mouth. - Yes. - Open it wide.
Breathe in and out. Do it once again.
Isn't this working? I don't hear anything.
What is this?
How will I check your heart beat if you stuff this in your shirt?
Doctor. - Sit down.
My left leg aches at night. - You should start walking less.
You are getting older. - Is the pain because of my age?
Yes. - My right leg is the same age as my left leg. It doesn't ache.
Why are you here if you don't know how to treat? Some doctor you are.
Look how the world works, Balu. No one wants to hear the truth.
We should be more practical. Be it with a patient or a wife.
If we get things right, everything falls into place.
What are you trying to say, Unnikrishnan?
We decided that our wives would do a mutual transfer
to their desired job locations.
If we can make that happen, then the both of us will be happy.
I can't make that happen. - You gave me your word.
I take back what I said.
If we start backing out on our word
how different are we from women? - Unnikrishnan.
You don't need to teach me the difference now.
Tell that to Zakaria, the guy that sent you here.
Tell him that this won't happen. - You have misunderstood.
He didn't tell me to.. - No. You don't have to explain. I know.
Ashwathi will be here no matter whatever you do.
I will make sure that Ashwathi becomes the Superintendent
of New India Chemicals. You and your friend can never stop me.
It's nothing like that. You have got it all wrong, Balu.
I don't dance to Zakaria's whims.
I came here for my wife.
Why are you here then? Zachariah hails from Trivandrum.
Why don't you ask his wife to get a transfer instead?
He doesn't even have a job. Ask him to go home with his wife.
At least he can start farming there.
Tell his father to do farming.
He is right. Why can't you go home?
Unnikrishnan, don't come here and speak on his behalf.
I introduced him to you.
Stop talking to him or our relationship will turn sour.
Zakaria, think about it. You are in danger now.
Mary doesn't know that you've lost your job.
She'll treat you like dirt if she finds out.
You will have to clean her sandals.
You have friends back home who can help you find a job.
Yes. My friends can help me find a lot of jobs.
But none of them including you will help me. - That's right.
I let my best friend become my neighbour.
Now he has become my biggest enemy.
He wants my wife to leave so that his wife can be the Superintendent.
I don't care what you do to make that happen.
But I will make sure that Mary gets the Superintendent post.
It should be Mary. That's what I want, too.
But I'm worried about you.
Don't forget about yourself while helping your wife.
How will you survive like this without earning anything?
How will you survive without a job? - I'll do what is necessary.
I'm ready to do any job.
I don't need a white collar job to survive.
I'm ready to do anything.
Don't try to scare me by talking about my job.
What are you doing?
I'm washing your car. Nothing more.
You are not washing it properly. - This will do.
How can you say that? Gentlemen travel in this car.
Hold this. - What! - Hold it.
Look at this. I'm a gentleman, too. More than what you are.
Don't talk about that to me.
Wash the car yourself if you don't like the way I wash it.
You can just pay me.
Step aside. I know how to do my job.
Narayanan, 360ml. - Yes, sir. - I'll pay and come.
Hello. - Hello. - 360ml.
Is it 360ml? - Yes.
Mister..
Aren't you my neighbour?
No. I'm not him. I live somewhere else.
I know. You are lying.
Get lost! - There you are, son.
Let's go. - Look, it's our neighbour. - What! Okay.
That's enough. If you don't study properly
you'll have to wash cars like this. Maybe even
become a barber. Come, son.
You! - What! How dare you do this!
You started it. - Sorry, sir. - What sorry?
Look what he did. - I'm sorry, sir.
I will beat the hell out of him.
You deserve a beating for employing him.
Sir, I was washing the car.. - You don't need to say anything.
You can't work here anymore. Get out!
You can't fire me because of him. I won't go.
Get out. - I won't. - I told you to get out!
I took a lot of pain
to find you this job.
As if you got me a reputed job!
It won't be of any use even if I get you a reputed job.
You won't be able to work here properly
as long as Balu is here.
He won't be here for long.
Wait and see, I will get rid of him.
You shouldn't just get rid of him.
You should ruin his peace.
You should get them divorced.
After you get that done
you will be able to live peacefully.
Besides, your wife's promotion
and my wife's transfer will also get granted. - How?
There is a solution. - Will you do as I say?
I will. Even him.
No, I don't trust this political fool.
He will change sides.
Even if I change sides
I will do it ethically.
You can trust me with this.
You have my support.
Okay. First we have to find
that drama artist Kalpana.
I will take care of that.
Well, why are we calling her?
Didn't it create an issue when she came to your place last time?
Yes, we have to create a bigger issue this time.
Your wife will commit suicide
if you create more problems.
I am not talking about my place.
We have to create problems in Balu's life.
Is it? - Yes. - Oh.
It is the boy wearing glasses.
You should do as per our instructions.
If things end up as planned
we will give you more work.
Work? Have you taken a contract to ruin families?
Well, if someone.. - Don't hesitate. - Hey.
It's not for free. We are paying you.
Do as per our instructions. Go.. - Oh, no.
No need. Go, dear.
What is this? - What?
Do you recognise me, dear?
I am your mom. - No.
You are not my mom.
My mom's name is Ashwathi.
She is your step mom.
I am your real mom.
I came to see you, dear.
I have brought chocolates for you.
Take this.
No need. - Take it, dear..
Shall I keep it in your pocket?
I will come every day.
I will get you chocolates every day. Come.
Look how dirty your shirt is.
What is this?
Haven't I told you not to buy these things?
My mom gave this to me. - Who? Me?
No. You are my step mom.
My real mom gave this to me.
She came to school and gave me chocolates.
Who is she?
Where does she stay?
I asked her, but she didn't tell me.
She said dad knows her.
Who? - My dad, Dr. Balu.
Has she ever come to the orphanage to meet you?
This is the first time.
Dad used to come.
She promised me that she will come every day.

'Alcohol consumption is injurious to health.'
Our plan has worked out.
That is obvious.
After all, it was my plan.
Do you know what's the next step?
Ashwathi.. - Stop.
Only I can handle tough situations
like this. Listen.
Tell us!
I will tell you tomorrow after thinking. - Get lost.
I have told you several times not to take this political fool along.
Leave that.
You tell us what should be done.
Now Ashwathi is doubtful.
She is a troublemaker.
We should create a troublemaker out of Balu.
Only then will our plan work out.
If he has to be made a troublemaker
this is the best solution.
Balu does not drink.
We have to make him drink if he doesn't.
It can be done if he tries. Right, Unnikrishnan?
Won't it happen? - Yes. - Okay.
Pour.
Oh, no. That's enough.
I don't drink.
I agreed as you compelled me.
I drink.
But I need a good friend with me while drinking.
I need someone to share my troubles with.
Cheers.
Well..
Oh, no. You drink too much.
Won't your liver get damaged if you drink like this?
Let it get damaged.
My dearest wife doesn't want me.
Then why do I need a liver? What for?
I am worried that Unnikrishnan will get drunk and create trouble.
I had told you not to send him for this plan.
Tell him the main point.
Point.. - What?
Point!
Doubt. - Doubt.
Yes, doubt. - What?
Yes! My wife has started doubting me.
She always keeps track of me.
All women are the same. They treat men alike.
When you reach home after having a few pegs
you should go to your wife
and beat the hell out of her!
And apologise to her the very next day.
I'm sure, all her doubts will come to an end.
There is no medicine better than this one.
I swear!
So get drunk and let all your wife's doubts
come to an end if there's any. Have it.
Have it!
Have another one. Let the doubts end.
Have it.
Some more! Have some more!
Stay there.
Do you not trust me?
Hey, I'm asking you. Do you trust me or not?
Tell me if you have any doubts. - Mission success! - Absolutely!
Answer me! What are you staring at?
Answer me! - I don't have any doubts!
Come, let's sleep. - I know it!
You can never be a cruel woman like Unnikrishnan's wife.
Get lost! - You are my love!
I hurt you a lot!
Forgive me! - Damn! - Oh, no!
Please tell me that you have forgiven me.
I want to hear it from you. - Come, let's go inside and talk.
The plan has flopped.
What we had built-up till now is all gone.
I had warned you not to proceed with his idea.
I would've given a better idea than this.
Now their affection for each other will grow.
I wasted my money for nothing. - I didn't know she would
react like this.
I thought she would be like every other wife.
No wife would react
calmly towards a drunk husband.
With her unbraided hair..
murmuring lips..
and teary eyes..
all women act like demons.
Yes, exactly like Goddess Kali.
What are you trying to prove? Do you think we're dead?
So it because of your drinking habit
we are not getting enough money for our expenses.
What are you saying? I've told you that I won't get
any salary for three months as the finance company is under loss.
After that, I will get paid.
Don't lie to me! I know everything.
You can booze all day as I'm here to manage
the responsibilities. Right? How long can you live like this?
Stop it! I've lost my patience!
Nothing has happened here.
Today, I got drunk for you. - For me? - Yes.
To get you the promotion. In order to do that
I have to sit and drink with many reputed people.
That's the only way I can get things done for you.
I had a few drinks today with some reputed people.
I did it to make you the Superintendent.
Not to become a drunkard!
I need to sleep early. Go and serve dinner.
What is it? Get lost!
Okay! - Come! - Come, my hand!
You said you wanted to say something. - I will.
Zakaria has started drinking, right?
You must be wondering that how did I know?
Everyone in this locality knows about it.
He is drinking in order to make friends
with influential people, so that you will get promoted.
But it is of no use. I've heard from the Head office
that Ashwathi is going to get the promotion.
You are senior to her. If she's going to be the Superintendent
how are you going to bear it?
Can you work as a subordinate to her?
I know you can't! That's why I'm saying this.
There is only one way.
Shift temporarily to some other branch.
It's better if you shift to Trivandrum.
Don't just believe Zakaria's words
thinking that you will get the promotion.
You will get humiliated. I am just saying.
You can decide the rest.
I need to meet a person here. Okay. Bye!
Why are you resigning the job?
I'm asking you. Why are you writing this resignation letter?
Do I need to answer that? You've been lying to me.
What I said to you was true! I've requested many people
to recommend you. You'll get the promotion for sure.
Don't think you can fool me. I will resign this job
if she gets promoted. - Then what will you do?
Do you want us to eat mud? - Do as you wish.
Hey, I'll tell you our real situation.
Then make a decision calmly. - There is nothing to decide.
I won't work under Ashwathi. I'm not going to hide from her as well.
Did I tell you to hide from her? - Don't act like you don't know
anything. I know that you're the one who sent Unnikrishnan.
I didn't send him. - Don't act innocent.
I understood everything when he said about the transfer.
Unnikrishnan!
Hey! I will kill you!
Let go! - I know you are smart!
But don't use it on my wife! - I will!
Why is your wife roaming around on the streets?
Tell her to return home after work.
Don't try to scare me! Get lost!
You can't throw me out! - I will! - Let go!
What is this? - Hey! - Let go! - Leave it, Zakaria!
Hey! - Let go!
If you try to talk to my wife again
I will stab you with a dagger.
Why are you crying? I did all this for you.
For us to live together. Come.
Ashwathi, aren't you coming with me?
No, I will take an auto. - What's wrong?
You've been upset for a few days now.
Tell me whatever it is. - Do I need to tell you that?
How else would I know? We've been living together
all this while, still you find it difficult to understand me?
I tried to understand you. That was my mistake.
What did you understand? Tell me!
Ashwathi.
Look, my mom! - Mom? Who?
The mom who comes to school to visit me.
Look! Mom!
Hello!
Please wait! - That.. - I asked you to stop!
Who are you? What's the relation between you and me?
Don't try to act smart. Tell me!
Who are you? - Don't ask me anything now.
Then when should I ask? - Stop!
I'm asking you. Answer me! - I will tell you. Leave me.
You don't need to ask me on the road. You can come to my house.
Come to my house! - You witch!
Ashwathi! - Go! - It's a deliberate..
You will be taught a lesson when you reach home.
There is no use in crying like this.
One must expect such things in their family life.
Just try to forget it.
Here. Have some coffee. Please don't cry.
There is only one way to solve this problem.
You should return back to your native with Balu.
His mother is there to look after both of you.
I'm saying this as I'm experienced than you.
It's better for both of you to stay with his mother.
You can make him realise gradually after reaching there.
Women should try to tolerate most of the issues.
If you do, you will find peace and happiness in your family.
There won't be anymore hurdles in your life.
Pray to all the Gods.
Gods are just like humans.
They'll help us only if we ask for it.
Oh, God. - Zakaria.
Come here. - What is it? - Come here!
I was asking about my time.
What's the point in asking him the time?
He doesn't even have a watch.
If you want to know if your time is good, then it is.
Here. I came here to give you this.
Take it. Open it.
The entire amount from the chit fund is in there.
It's hard earned money.
Try to get a job using this.
What are you thinking?
Hasn't your party won the elections? - Yes.
If I give your leader this money, can Mary get promoted?
That's possible.
But don't you think it'd be wise if you could arrange
for a source of income? - That's all right.
I have to get her promoted somehow. You must help me with that.
But Zakaria.. - Come with me.
Meet your leader and give him this money.
Finalise the deal.
Please.. - I..
Why do you need a transfer all of a sudden?
I've to go to my hometown.
Balu's mother is sick. She is alone there.
If we aren't there at this time..
Correct! That's the right thing to do.
It's the duty of the children to take care
of their aged parents.
But nowadays, nobody bothers about it.
I appreciate you for taking such a decision.
I'll get this transfer sanctioned as soon as possible.
Even Unnikrishnan will be happy.
She has been inside for a while now.
What's taking them so long?
Would it be regarding her promotion?
What is it, Ashwathi?
Did you sort it out? - Yes.
What is it, ma'am? Are you being promoted?
Yes, I'm being promoted.
The Manager told that he will promote me
as the new Superintendent here.
So can we expect a delicious treat from you?
Of course! - Congratulations. - Thank you.
Congratulations. - Thank you.
All the best. - Thank you.
Congratulations. - Thank you.
What is this? - My resignation letter.
Resignation letter? - Yes.
I find it difficult to work here anymore.
Hey, Mary..
Listen up, I'm very happy today.
I have achieved victory.
What did you say?
That I am a loser and a good for nothing, right?
You are yet to see what I am capable of.
Getting you a promotion was a piece of cake for me.
No, I don't want you to talk about it anymore.
I know that Ashwathi got the promotion.
Promotion? That too Ashwathi?
Hey, she is leaving with a transfer
because of the humiliation?
She has already requested for it.
You can't believe it, can you?
No, you don't have to believe it.
You can believe it when you receive the promotion order.
What are you saying? - I'm being serious.
You'll be promoted as the new Superintendent
of New India Chemicals.
Why aren't you happy about it?
Why do you seem upset? What's wrong?
I thought Ashwathi was being promoted.. - Then?
I.. I resigned my job. - What are you saying?
What's the point in crying now?
Go and get some bowls.
We'll go beg in the streets!
Please. - Thank you.
Please.
Hello.
Is this all we get for her first day at work?
This is all you get for now as I only have one wife.
If another wife of mine.. What is it?
The Manager is calling you. - I've already given him sweets.
Tell him no to have too much of these at this age.
Do you want more, sir?
Hand it over to somebody and come here.
I will.. - Didn't you hear me?
Serve this to everyone.
One per head.
You got the sweet, didn't you? - Yes.
Unnikrishnan, don't misunderstand me.
I haven't misunderstood you, have I?
I never intended to do anything.
Did I complain about anything?
You can consider it your fate.
It's a good fate, isn't it?
My wife is working at the very same place that I'm working in.
Isn't that good?
I'm not talking about that. - Then?
You've been transferred to Trivandrum.
You must report there as soon as possible.
Unnikrishnan..
Shivashankaran! Prabhakaran!
They must be busy having sweets.
Unnikrishnan..
Who gave you the permission to apply for a transfer?
Nobody did. It's my decision.
Do you expect me to dance according to your decisions?
I didn't ask you to.
I know there's no point in asking you.
It's not just me that you have to look after now, isn't it?
Ashwathi.
I've told you many times that there isn't anything
going on with that woman.
If you continue.. - I didn't ask you about that.
Nor do I want to know about it.
There's just one request I have for you.
You must accompany me to our hometown.
Let's abandon everything that's not ours.
You must be implying that we've to abandon our son, too.
Yes, you must return him to the orphanage.
I can't take up other's burden.
It's fine if you can't. I'll raise him myself.
He'll live with me.
Why just him? Take his mother.. - Hey!
Watch your tongue! - You can decide.
It's either him or me!
There is no way I am sending him back!
Then I don't see any point in having this anymore.
Hey! I said leave it!
Hey!
I'll kill you!
Dad, don't beat mom.
Mom..
Mom. - Ashwathi. - Mom.

Why are you silent?
You were not able to pay the rent on time
even when you and Mary had a job.
Now how will you pay the rent when both of you are unemployed?
We will vacate the house, Mr. Poulose.
Then where will you stay?
How are you going to live without an income?
Instead of giving that money to some politicians
you could've started a small scale business.
But you wanted to be the husband of a reputed officer.
Am I right?
Zakaria, it doesn't matter about what our wife's status is.
We should have some money with us if we want others to respect us.
Or else, people will disrespect us.
I've experienced it. Have a look at this.
These are the letters sent by my wife and children from Dubai.
Just read it. They are asking me
whether I have paid the bills and am I getting the rent on time.
They've even asked me about the pet dog.
What about me? They've not asked me even once
about how I'm doing.
Do you know one thing? I wish to see
my wife and children.
But I don't get time to show my affection
when they come here once in a while.
I will be busy cleaning their car and going to the market.
Like a servant! I'm just a servant for them.
I sold all my belonging to send them to Dubai.
Do you know why? Because of the desire to become rich.
I became rich, but I lost my family.
I lost my wife and children. Zakaria.
The most valuable thing is our family.
What we should have is love and affection!
Well, don't get upset about losing the job.
We will find a way.
Do you remember the joke you had told me that day?
You told me that you consider me as your father.
So I'm telling you like a father. We'll find a way.
Don't worry.
Go.
Mom!
- What is it?
It's not from here! - Mom!
Mom, open the door! Mom!
She is not opening the door!
Open the door! Open it! - Mom!
What is it, Zakaria? - I don't know.
Ashwathi, open the door! - Ashwathi! - Open it!
Ashwathi, open the door! - Ashwathi! - Ashwathi!
Ashwathi, open the door! - Open the door!
Ashwathi, open the door! - I said, open the door!
Open the door! Open it! - Mom!
Ashwathi! - Ashwathi! - Open the door!
Ashwathi!
Open the door!
She isn't opening it. - Open the door! - Ashwathi!
Ashwathi! - Ashwathi!
What will we do now? - We will take her to the hospital.
Inform Balu about this. - Ashwathi!
Where will he be now? - You should find him.
He ruined my family.
He should not ruin another family again.
Teach him a lesson! - How about breaking his limbs?
It's up to you! - Hurry..
Look, it's Balu!
Stop the car!
One minute, I will call Balu! - But Ashwathi..
Then you leave. The hospital is near.
I will come with Balu. Go!
Balu! - He's the one!
You can go, sir. We'll deal with him! - Balu!
Balu! - What is this?
Move! Balu!
Stop! - Balu, come!
Stop! Enough!
Move! Move!
Balu!
Zakaria!
Dad.
How is Ashwathi? - She is fine now.
Can you do me a favour?
You should reveal everything to Ashwathi and Balu.
Let all their misunderstandings come to an end.
Balu knows everything now.
Everything I said is true.
I've told you what happened.
If you still don't believe me
and if our son is an issue for you
I'm ready to leave him.
Because you matter to me
more than anyone else.
Tell me what to do.
There is nothing more to think, Balu.
It's better you give the kid back.
He'll grow up there peacefully.
The people there will care for him.
It is now that he has actually become an orphan.
Forgive me, Father. I brought him
thinking that I'll bring him up as my own son.
Till now I cared for him as a father.
But I don't think I can anymore.
So please take him back to the orphanage.
What you're saying is right, Balu.
I gave him to you because I wanted him
to grow up not being looked at
as an orphan.
Till she has such a doubt in her mind
parents will be a curse for him.
You must study well. - Yes.
Be a great person. - Yes.
I'm leaving, Mom.
Will you visit me, Mom?
Can I go?
We're leaving. - Won't you send letters?
Yes, how can we forget you?
Are you going away from me?
I'll visit you one day.
What will you give me then? - I will give you chocolates.
Enough? - Yes.
Are you leaving? - Yes.
If we leave now, we can reach home before it gets dark.
Is it?
Why are you standing there, Mary?
Can't you at least say a goodbye when a colleague is leaving?
Why aren't you coming to the office?
Sir.. I..
I didn't send the resignation letter to the Head office.
Ashwathi told me everything after you left.
I didn't send it as she strongly opposed it.
Join the office tomorrow.
Not in your old position, but as the Superintendent.
Your promotion order has been received.
You deserve the promotion.
I won't ever come to snatch it away.
Forgive me if I have hurt you.
I am the one who should be apologising.
I've hurt you so much.
That's okay. It happens between women. Right?
What? - Am I in trouble?
Why are you standing there? Come.
Come here. Should I drag you here?
