Jose, Sethu Madhavan has arrived.
Where is he?
Move! Move!
Don't laugh!
I'm ready to die!
I'll die fighting!
Who else wants my life?
Those who dare can come!
I need to kill.
I need to kill until I'm satisfied.
He is not running away. - Move! Move..
Sethu!
- I won't care who it is
Don't come near me.
Son!
Put down the knife.
Put down the knife.. - Don't come near me!
Son.. Drop the knife!
It is your father asking you! Drop the knife!
'Central Prison.'
What are you thinking about?
What?
I was just curious about what you were thinking.
You've been gazing at the ceiling for a while now.
It's nothing. I was just..
Shall I tell you?
You were thinking about yourself. Isn't it?
Your home, father, mother, friends
and others you care about. Isn't it?
Even I was thinking of the same.
I have to get out of here on parole after a year.
Do you go out on parole last year?
No, I haven't gone out on parole yet.
What? Haven't you gone out in the last eight years?
No. - Why is that?
You could've seen your family at least once in a year.
I didn't go.
It's not that I hold a grudge against Sethu Madhavan.
Do we really mark him as satisfactory?
Allow him to live.
Even habitual criminals are released before their terms end.
He doesn't have anybody to vouch or speak for him.
So, he hasn't received a parole even after spending seven years.
We know about his history and behaviour very well.
To imprison an innocent soul like him in here for 14 years
is a pity.
If he could leave on parole, let him.
Good morning, sir.
Morning, sir. - Morning.
You had summoned me. - Yes, listen.
Sukumaran Nair is on leave for a week as he's sick.
If we don't submit the pay-bill by Wednesday
we won't be receiving our salaries on time.
You must write it, Sethu Madhavan. - I'll write it, sir.
The treasury will reject the bill even if they find a small error.
We could've given it to somebody else, otherwise.
I shall write it, sir. I'll submit it by tomorrow.
You can ask at the office.
They'll give you the acquittance register. - Sir.
How's the situation in his town?
Would there be problems if he returns?
That's something the home department has to deal with.
We'll do whatever we can.
'Model Police Station, Ramapuram.'
The SI is waiting for you. - So what?
Do I have to seek his blessings before I start work?
Let me sign before that. - The attendance register's in SI's room.
Why'd you keep it there before I sign it?
Govindan Nair, don't try to act smart.
You may have more tenure than me.
But, you're nothing but a head constable.
I'm the ASI. Don't you ever forget that.
Najeeb's in-laws have come home.
You have excuses for everything, don't you?
Here, sign it.
Did you investigate about Sethu Madhavan?
There's nothing to investigate. I know him personally.
Sethu Madhavan is the son of Achuthan Nair
who worked in this very station with me.
Achuthan Nair retired three years ago.
You wouldn't know about him.
He was one hell of a policeman.
There's just one policeman who has ever hit Keerikkadan Jose.
That's Achuthan Nair.
That boy got into it as he couldn't see his father
getting beaten up. - I've heard about it too.
I don't want to know about his family details.
I want to know if Keerikkadan Jose's family
would create any problems if Sethu Madhavan is released.
The Keerikkadan family isn't that great now.
It all ended with Jose's death. But there is one guy.
A one man army. Antony.
He used to live at Thalasseri.
Right now, he's at Kannur Central Jail.
Inquire about it again.
I don't want any incidents in my jurisdiction.
'Hill-produce Trade. Proprietor: Thomas Keerikkadan.'
Hey, if my brother has borrowed money from you
it's between the two of you. Don't involve me into that.
This is between us.
Family has no value in business.
I don't care!
I need my money with interest.
I'll make sure that I get it.
No matter what, I'll definitely take it from you.
God has blessed me with some good-for-nothing brothers.
What's wrong? - Mr. Hamid, I have three brothers.
They're never satisfied with anything.
The slaughterhouse is under Sunny's control.
But he isn't happy with it.
There's another one. Joy.
An irresponsible chap.
He does nothing useful but asks everybody for money.
Good thing that the other one is in prison.
But, Jose has left a lot for all of you, hasn't he?
What has he left for us?
He has helped others more than the family.
But he has helped the family too, hasn't he?
If Jose had been alive for another five years
Keerikkadan family would've owned half of Ramapuram.
Those five years could also destroy whatever we have.
Do you mean to say that it's good that Jose died?
That's not what I meant. That was his destiny.
We're just unlucky. - Have you heard?
Sethu Madhavan is going to be released soon.
When? - This month.
What's done is done.
It's better to not create any more problems.
You know SI John Mathew, don't you?
He told me that he'd break everybody's bones
if they created any problems.
I'm telling you this as we're good friends.
He killed my brother.
It's not that we are scared. We forgave him.
But, if he tries to get on our nerves
we'll chop him into pieces!
Did you talk to Ummarkutty about anything?
Yes, I asked him to pay for the teak tree he cut down.
Is that all you talked about?
I also told him to pay the whole mount.
The teak belongs to every one of us.
It's not just your property, is it?
Stop talking nonsense and go and have your lunch.
I can't help it when you do the same.
You insulted me before him.
I sold it as I had a right to it, too.
Don't think that you can have it to yourself.
If it is from our plot that the teak was sold
I need a share too.
Sunny, nobody wants any share in here.
It wouldn't suffice with your words.
Ask him to say that.
Enough. - Get out of my face.
It isn't just some silly issue.
Hey, do you have any idea about what happens in this family?
There are so many people in this house to feed.
Jose isn't alive anymore.
We've to take care of his wife and family.
You stay here with your wife too.
So do our dad and Joy.
Have you ever done anything about it?
I'm the one who has to take care of everything.
What do you do?
Brother Jose made all these properties and wealth.
Nobody in here has to suffer such sacrifices and pain.
Could you all please stop talking about this?
None of us has any right over these.
Don't forget that there's a woman and her two kids living here
who deserves it more than anyone.
Annamma!
What is it, Father-in-law?
What's happening out there?
What's going on between Thomas and Sunny?
I don't know.
They're talking about money, Grandpa. - I knew it.
Annamma, you must be careful.
You've got two daughters.
Or they'll throw you out of this house once I'm gone.
What can we do, Father-in-law?
We're a burden here.
If my husband had been alive..
Money is all they care about.
Jose earned all this out of his hard work.
He spilt a lot of blood for all this.
His brothers were doing nothing back then.
And when he was being killed like a dog
they didn't even dare to question it.
If I could've moved my body
I would've chopped the murderer's body into a million pieces.
My.. My son Jose..
He was a man. A lion-hearted man.
You destroyed everything.
My children don't have a father now.
My life, my family.. I lost it all.
I won't leave you.
I'll kill you!
Sethu.
He must've had a nightmare. He does this once in a while.
Aren't you sleeping?
You can go to sleep. I won't be able to sleep tonight.
The superintendent has summoned Sethu Madhavan to his office.
What is it? - His release order has arrived.
Sethu Madhavan, your release order has arrived.
Sethu.
When did you arrive? - I just arrived.
I thought I'd meet you first.
I'm not brave enough to meet anybody else.
If you'd told me earlier, I'd have come to pick you.
Am I coming from abroad for you to pick me up?
They don't tell us about it beforehand.
The order arrived today.
Is he your son? - Yes. Do you know him?
He is my best friend I tell you about.
Sethu. - Yes, I know.
What's your name? - Nandakumar.
Go to the store and buy rice and some good fish
if you find any and come home.
I'm taking him to our house.
Leave. - You can leave in this auto rickshaw.
You can get down on the way.
How much is it? - Rs. 14.
Here.
I thought I'd meet you before I go home.
Yes, right. I'm not leaving you anywhere today.
It's been three or four years since we've seen each other.
You refuse to meet me when I come to the prison.
You wouldn't even reply to the letters I send.
One should spend some time in a prison.
Only then will he realise the beauty of nature.
Whatever it may be, I'm very happy.
You came to meet me before anyone.
When I heard about the release order
the only thing I had in my mind was to come out that place.
But, when I came out, I didn't know where to go.
I didn't expect anybody to accept me now.
But, I knew that you'd be there.
I think about you all the time.
We used to go to school this way.
We played and grew up together.
Do you still remember this bridge?
We used to sit here waiting for Devi.
You must have heard about Devi.
Yes, I have.
I received a letter from Uncle Krishnan.
A letter in which he said he was sorry for what he did.
One cannot change fate.
In a way, the ones who die are the luckiest ones.
It would all end with it, wouldn't it?
They say that Devi was killed by her husband and in-laws.
People can say anything they want, can't they?
Why else would he marry another woman so soon?
There is a daughter.
He doesn't even bother to look at her.
He claims that it's not his daughter.
He doubts that it's yours.
Uncle Krishnan had written about that too.
I'm the one to be blamed for that too.
She was ready to come with me against everybody's will.
But I didn't accept her.
I felt that it was the right thing to do.
I backed down.
Else, she'd have been alive now.
I came out on bail today. Is your betrothal done?
Don't cry. - I won't allow it.
Please take me with you.
I'll accompany you this very moment.
And then? - We will live together.
That's never going to happen. I'm not ready for that.
I'm losing everything in my life. I want to lose you as well.
I had been to your house for your grandmom's funeral.
I met your dad, mom, Rameshan and Latha that day.
I asked your dad if he visits you.
He didn't say anything.
I.. I didn't ask him anything else.
My dad had come to the prison a couple of times.
He would stand there without saying anything.
He'd only talk if I asked him anything.
After his retirement, he never came to visit me.
Latha used to write some letters.
I heard that Latha is performing in plays these days. - Yes.
She was a girl who used to stay home and look after the chores.
It was since then that my dad stopped visiting me.
Maybe, he feared that I'd ask him about it.
There wasn't any point in building a house at Ramapuram
with the pension funds he received.
He couldn't even complete the construction.
Only your uncle and aunt stays at the ancestral house now.
They could've stayed there.
He could've got Latha married with the money he received.
He could've have opened up a shop with the remaining amount.
You do know him, don't you?
He never bows before anybody.
Uncle Krishnan used to tell me
that my father was a man with false pride.
Why would such a man stay at mom's ancestral house?
Is sending his daughter to perform in plays something to be proud of?
I don't understand how he's bearing it.
This is why I never came out on parole.
Eight years.
I suffered my imprisonment.
I was punishing myself.
Don't worry about it. It will all get better.
No.
I don't think I can regain what I've lost.
Many families were affected because of my actions.
It not your fault, that it happened, is it?
Who's fault is it, then?
Am I not the one to be blamed for killing Jose?
I don't remember anything.
But, I can still smell his fresh blood
in my hands.
And his cries..
Even he would've had a family.
I have nightmares about him.
He points his fingers at me and blames me
for destroying his family
and taking him away from his kids.
He's right, isn't he?
I've destroyed everything.
I broke everybody's heart.
So many families..
Sethu. Hey.
What is this?
I've been holding these tears for the past eight years.
I couldn't control them anymore.
Forget it. What's the time?
How about we have our dinner and go to sleep?
Dinner time at the prison starts at 5:00 p.m.
Ambika.
What're you doing?
Hasn't the doctor told you not to move your legs?
I've been staying idle for too long.
Let me sit here for some time.
Why are you doing this to me, God?
I find it difficult to even breathe after walking just a few steps.
You can leave. I shall sit here.
Latha has rehearsal today, doesn't she?
Mom, it's Brother Sethu.
My son.. - Mom, be careful.
Let me see my son. - No, stand here.
Mom. - Son.
Sethu.
We'll go in.
She isn't well.
Talk to me, Son. - Come.
Where's dad?
She'll get herself chest pain today.
Why are you crying?
Lie down.
Where's Latha? - Latha has rehearsals today.
Dad has accompanied her. - Won't they return today?
The play is to be performed in Ramapuram itself
on behalf of the library.
So, they'll be back at night after the rehearsal.
I wished for a lot in my life.
You're the one who shattered my dreams.
You don't even have the right to touch my body.
I'll kill you if you don't obey me.
You're doing it wrong, Ravi.
Is this how you rape a woman?
You must have complete control over her.
What're you shy for? Hold her tight.
She must feel the pain.
You must hold her tight and strip her.
Let try it one more time.
Let go.
That's it.
'Smoking is injurious to health.'
Sub-Inspector Sethu.
Your rogue.
I arrived this afternoon.
They released me yesterday.
Hameed had told me that you'd be released.
I told you already, didn't I?
You're supposed to put your hands on her chest and tell her.
You could've stayed home.
I was longing to see you, Father.
You've seen me now.
See me all you want.
You can find Latha inside.
Even that's something worth watching.
Don't move. - Let go.
That's it.
Don't feel shy. - Latha.
What is this, dear? Don't cry.
Did you meet dad? He was here until now.
I met him.
What am I supposed to do? Should I steal?
There a woman inside who can't even walk.
And another one whose husband abandoned her.
I have to feed them.
Treatments, Rameshan's education..
We need money for all that.
What good could my pension funds be?
She's doing what she can.
Pride will get you nowhere.
I'm not the one responsible for what has happened.
Stop it. - Why don't you listen to me?
Nothing's going to happen to me if I walk a few steps.
Let me be with my son for a while.
You can go and lie down. I'll come to you.
No, we'll sit here.
Let me feel the breeze.
I had never expected such things to happen.
Nobody else is responsible for it but you.
Look who's talking about disgrace.
Nothing can make up for the disgrace you've brought upon us.
He didn't do it intentionally.
I don't care. This is all I've to tell you.
This family is surviving with great difficulties.
Rameshan is our only hope.
I have to take care of him.
I'd do anything for him.
Please don't create any more problems for us.
Do you feel that I shouldn't have come, Father?
I just don't want any more problems. That's it.
This family was once shattered.
I'm trying to make it whole again.
If you're planning to destroy it again
you can buy us some poison before that.
It's my request.
Please see to it that it never happens.
Son, he was just letting out his pain.
Don't take it to your heart. - Am I a burden here, Mom?
Mom.
Where's Sethu? - He's here.
He's very hurt.
You do know how dad behaves, don't you?
Shall I serve dinner, Brother? - We'll wait for dad.
He comes home late.
We'll have our dinner and go to sleep.
I don't want anyone to support me.
Didn't I tell you not to hold me? - You will fall.
Me? What a joke!
What I'm trying to say is that
Achuthan Nair is a gentleman.
I was awarded for my good service three times.
Three times.
Nobody can write a FIR better than me.
I have never accepted any bribe from anyone until now.
And he's questioning me?
A criminal. A notorious criminal.
I'm leaving. - Hey, wait up. Let me finish.
We'll talk about it tomorrow.
Go to your home. Else, stay here.
I'm leaving. - Hey, listen to what I've to say.
Go and bring him, Latha.
We'll have to listen to his history now.
Does he drink every day? - Yes, once in a while.
Someone would buy him a drink.
They treat him with drinks at the plays too.
You wouldn't know, you scoundrel.
Nobody has ever.. - No. - ...until here.
Latha.
Hey.
Ambika.
No, you don't have to tell me anything.
You must take rest.
Please don't feel sad.
I'm here to feel sad enough for everybody.
It's burning.
It's burning in here like a huge fire.
Do you know that?
You wouldn't know that.
Nobody would know anything.
Who could possibly know that?
You may know that.
But, by the time everybody realises that
I may not be alive.
Sethu Madhavan is here, sir. - Send him in.
You're Sethu Madhavan, aren't you? - Yes, sir.
Hadn't the jail official ordered you to report to the station
as soon as you arrive? - I.. I reached yesterday.
You were released the day before yesterday. - Yes, sir.
Where were you until now?
I had gone to meet a friend. - Who's that?
Keshavan.
We were friends who played and grew up together.
What play? What did you play together?
Why are you silent?
We played whatever kids of our age used to play.
You weren't talking about mugging, murder or stealing, were you?
Answer me!
What do I answer if you ask such questions?
I see. Are you questioning me now?
So, what are your plans? I haven't decided yet.
When will you be deciding it? - Sir, please don't mock me.
What're you going to do about that? Are you trying to act smart?
Live in a good manner.
Or I'll teach you a lesson.
Sir, I'm a guy who has served time for the crime I've done.
I'm not a criminal anymore. Please don't talk to me like that.
How do you want me to behave?
The way one behaves with a regular human.
I have no reason to come here, legally speaking.
I came here as they asked me to.
Please, don't hurt me with such words.
Son of a bitch!
Are you trying to teach me law? Rascal!
I'm capable enough to lock you up
and accuse you for another case.
You can. You can do anything you wish.
You're wearing a uniform of command and power.
People who come out of prison don't have any hopes out of life.
It's all right if you don't help. But please, don't trouble us.
Please let me leave, sir.
You must come here if I summon you.
I was thinking about leaving this place.
Where to? - To some faraway place.
Mumbai or Kolkata. Or any other place.
I can't stay here anymore.
I could do any job out there.
It'd be easy to find one too.
I'm not letting you leave until my I'm gone.
Do you know the pain I had to go through all these years?
I wish to die in your presence.
Your father is unwell too.
He doesn't talk about it anyone.
Who, other than you, is supposed to take care
of your siblings once we're gone?
Rameshan will do it once he is settled.
You should've gone and visited him.
I will. I've been waiting to see him.
He must've grown up into a big boy.
Does he visit you once in a month at least?
Where'd he have the time for that?
You should have a look at the books he studies.
They are as big as the Bhagavad Gita.
He comes home for a week during 'Vishu' and Onam.
There aren't much facilities here for him to study.
I want him to succeed in life.
A boy who wished to become a lawyer..
He's wearing a white coat with a stethoscope around his neck.
He's doing his third year, isn't he? - Yes.
Do you have any idea about his monthly expenses?
If Latha hadn't decided decided to perform in plays
nothing would have been possible for him.
We must help him succeed, no matter what.
Enough, Mom.
Are you done already?
You always liked to have head massages.
It's not because of that.
You are not feeling well. That's why.
I wished you to be with me
when I was in jail.
So that I can get my head massaged
and can sleep peacefully.
You could've chopped his limbs off!
Haven't you had enough after sending one son to his death?
Do you want us to die as well?
I didn't ask you to die.
I'm asking you to kill him. - What are you saying?
We will be sentenced for 20 years.
We have advocates to prevent that.
Jose had a lot of police cases.
I've killed two as well.
I was not held in jail for more than a year.
Dad, I admit that we should take revenge against him.
But there are other ways to do it. - Just make him understand!
I have work to do.
If I was able to stand
I would've never asked for your help.
I would've killed him by myself. - Dad, we'll rip him into pieces.
Don't be impatient.
He won't go out of our reach.
I want to see his dead body.
You will see his dead body. I'll take you there.
Mark my words. Please be patient until then.
I would've believed those words if it was from Antony.
If Antony were not in jail, he would've been dead by now.
I'm telling you once and for all.
If he comes in front of me, I'll finish him for sure.
I promise.
Is this Sethu Madhavan's house? - Yes.
Is he here?
What is it? I'm Sethu Madhavan.
Do you know me? I'm Divakaran.
I'm doing arrack business in this range.
I need to talk to you.
Please sit. - No, we can talk outside.
I've heard a lot about you.
I heard that you were released from jail.
What's the matter? - Well..
You should help me.
It was due to my adamancy that I've started this business here.
I've spent a lot of money. But now, I'm running at a big loss.
People are doing illegal arrack business in every nook and corner.
Excise officers come often but there is no use.
I need to bribe them as well.
Why are you telling me all this?
Well, we need to handle them directly.
I need a guy for that.
They should fear him.
Keerikkadan Jose helped me a lot of times.
In fact, he got a lot of money as well.
You should help me clean my range.
Me? - Yes.
If they come to know that you are handling my range
they will hesitate.
If they come against you, thrash them.
We will take care of you, whatever happens.
There is no problem even if you kill someone.
I will get you released from jail.
I will give you good remuneration as well.
Well, will you help me? - No!
Sethu Madhavan, take your time to think.
I will give more money than others.
You can call your friends as well.
Sir, I've a lot of financial problems and other difficulties.
Still, I don't want to be a goon for money.
It's better to beg than do that.
I'm not asking you to become my henchman.
I'm giving you a job offer in my company.
But the work will be as I mentioned before. - I don't want this job!
You've mistaken.
I might have killed a person and have gone to jail
but don't put me on the same list as Keerikkadan Jose.
Then, in which list he is in?
Shucks!
Okay, then. - Okay.
You've grown up!
Now, you don't need to put eye liner for your moustache.
When did you come, Brother? - I came at 11 AM.
I came back home last week.
Are you on parole? - No, my term is over.
Please, sit.
How is mom? - She is fine.
She is having her medicines.
She told me that you didn't send any letters since last month.
I'm too busy. Moreover, there isn't much to write about.
Well, did she send any money for me?
Money.. I've some with me.
You don't know how I'm living here.
I don't even have a good outfit.
I can't even pay my fees on time.
You know our conditions very well.
The college authorities won't listen to these excuses.
Can I say that I will pay the fees after we get a booking for plays?
I want you to understand. That's all.
It's Rs. 1,000. Right?
After passing my entrance examinations
I told dad that I'd work in a workshop instead of studying.
But no one agreed with me.
Now, they won't even give me money for my needs.
What can I do? I want to live like others.
Everything will be fine. Now I'm back.
I will manage your college fees.
You can study as much as you want.
If you get a job, you should tell sister to stop acting in plays.
I saw sister's photo on a poster when I was
at my friend's place. I was so ashamed!
She became a drama artiste for you.
Yes, but I can't stand it when people talk about her.
How is dad? - He is fine.
He has become so irritating nowadays.
He is much worse after drinking!
You should not talk like this.
Our dad lost everything he desired.
You are his only hope.
It might be because of his pain that he is scolding you.
No, he doesn't scold me.
Are you leaving now?
They won't allow guests in the mess.
No, I'll have food from outside.
Okay, then. - Okay.
Hey, Rameshan! - Open the door!
Why are you doing here alone?
Okay, then. You can go.
Is this your brother? - Yes, my cousin brother.
I know he is your bother.
He looks just like you.
He is just a relative.
That's all. Come, let's go.
What are you thinking? - Nothing!
I should find a job.
I promised Rameshan that I'd manage his college fees.
You didn't tell me about it.
What did he say?
He asked me about all of you.
He was very happy that I went to meet him.
He introduced me to his friends. We had lunch together.
He even came to the bus stand to send me off.
Why can't you take some rest? You're always busy with talking.
I'm feeling much better than before.
Okay, I'm not going to say more.
Hey, Latha!
I've promised them that we'd reach by 5 p.m. - I'm coming.
The drama is at 9 p.m. We need reach there only by 7.
Who told you to promise to reach at five?
All my words have gone useless!
I'll be in Kunjappu's shop.
You come there. - No way!
I won't let you drink today. We can go together.
Sister?
Brother, are you coming to watch my play?
No. - It's nearby. Why can't you go and watch?
No. I don't want to see it.
What about you, Sister?
You could've invited the neighbours as well. Just come!
I'm leaving, Mom. - Okay.
From where did she get all this courage?
One becomes courageous if there is nothing to lose.
When there is something to gain
we will become courageous.
"Oh, emotions! Fill my evenings"
"to adorn yourself with dew drops"
"brought by the wind."
"Though silent.."
"Though silent, my consciousness"
"never falls into the abyss of memories"
"within me when your fingers touch me."
"The sweet essence of the soul."
Look who is here! I heard that you came back.
Mr. Hamid told that you opened a shop.
Not just that, I got married and I have two kids now.
We are a happy family! - Where is Suresh now?
He is in Muscat now.
Mr. Gopalakrishnan has retired. He's settled in his hometown. - Oh.
Suresh had visited me the last time he came home.
He asked me about you.
Come in, have a glass of juice. - No.
Why? Have some juice. - No, thanks.
I came to see you as I need a favour from you.
What is it?
I need a job.
Could you please arrange one for me?
Seriously? Getting a job is one of the hardest things in the world.
Even I spent a lot of time looking for one.
I pleaded with a lot of people.
Then I realised that to survive, one should
start something on his own.
I'm willing to do any job.
You were referring to tillage, weren't you?
I am ready for that too.
Who'd hire you when there are men who are adept at it?
As for being a headload worker, you should
join their union and to do that, you need at least Rs. 50,000.
With that amount of money, you could open a shop like mine.
It's not that I don't want to help you. I will try.
It would really be helpful if you could find one.
I'm trying in all ways possible but I couldn't find any so far.
Also, people who know my past would obviously
be reluctant to hire me. - Mister..
Dad asked if you could come to the shop.
Whose father? - Mine.
She is Parameshwaran's daughter.
No, please lie down.
Dear, please get him a stool to sit on. - Okay.
Sit down.
You can't use your hands anymore, can you? - No.
They are useless now.
It's like I have them just for the sake of it.
Hey!
Don't you think you could get away from me!
Mark my words! I'll find you and I'll chop off
your limbs in a day's time!
I want to live!
Shall I ask her to get you a cup of tea? - No.
No way. I can't you let you leave without giving you tea, at least.
Dear. - Yes. - Buy two cups of tea. - Okay.
Aren't you furious at me for what I did to you?
Why do you laugh?
I badly wanted to exact revenge on you.
By the time I was discharged from the hospital
you were imprisoned for the murder of Mr. Jose.
The SI Haridas helped me get a bank loan approved.
I started this cycle shop with that money.
I started thinking about my past after I lost my arms
and then I realised that everything I did was wrong.
My arms were lost because of my karma.
But I'm happy with my wife and children now.
Life is peaceful now. The only thing that I'm short of is money.
Did you get it so soon? - Yes.
Give it to him.
That's enough for me, you may drink the rest. - Okay.
She is my eldest daughter, Ramani.
Unfortunately, I'd to force her to quit her studies last year.
My son is still continuing his education.
It'd be impossible for me without Ramani's or my wife's presence.
How can I ask my wife to take care of the shop?
What are your plans?
Did you see any of Mr. Jose's brothers? - No.
Be careful. They are cheats.
Mr. Jose was brave and straightforward.
He never ambushed his enemies. He fought man to man.
But these guys are nefarious. They would stoop to any level.
When I was admitted to the hospital
Mr. Jose had given me a cheque for Rs. 50,000.
I was two days late in encashing it.
Mr. Jose passed away during that period of time.
They didn't let me encash it.
They didn't give me even a single penny.
Now, they pretend that they are leading righteous lives.
But if they get a window, they'll reveal their true colours.
They would try to ambush you.
So, always watch your back.
That's not what is bothering me now.
I need a job.
I'm in search for it. I haven't reached anywhere.
What kind of job are you looking for?
I'm willing to do any job.
Are you ready to be a fishmonger? - Fish? - Yes, seafish.
The wholesale fish dealer in the market is a friend of mine.
I'll ask him to give you some fish to sell.
You just need to buy a basket.
I'll give you a bicycle. Can you do it?
Ignore your educational qualifications.
You could earn around Rs. 100 per day. - I'll do it.
Move! - Oh, no!
Throw him out of the jeep! - Get down!
Sir. - Move!
Move! I'll teach you a lesson! - Sir! - How dare you!
You! Move!
Whom do you think you are? - Oh, no!
I will thrash you! I did warn you!
Move! - Sir! - To hell with your effrontery! - Sir!
How dare you defy the law!
Sir, don't hit me. - You! - He.. He tried to kill me.
I'm innocent. Please don't hit me. - Get up!
You! How dare you claim that you're innocent after what you've done?
Move! Rascal! I will teach you a lesson!
Don't hit me, sir. - Let go of me, you rascal.
Don't hit me! If you do, kill me.
I've got nothing to lose now.
Sethu, leave him.
I tried not to fight back even when he attacked me.
I ran away, but he chased me.
What was I supposed to do when he kept coming back at me?
Should I let him kill me?
I haven't fought back in the past.
I can't do that now because I want to live.
Come here, Achuthan Nair. Why are you standing there?
What is it? - Achuthan Nair. - I see.
Sit down. - No, thank you, sir.
I asked you to come here to talk about your son.
His mom and siblings are all worried about him.
She is a heart patient.
I heard that he was rude to you.
I apologise on his behalf.
That is fine.
I gave him a nice beating.
If he repeats his mistakes
I'll break his spine!
Make him understand.
Else, he will die in the streets!
You can take him.
Ask him to live his life somewhere else
instead of fighting with the Keerikkadan family.
Stop right here.
Why stop here?
How much? - Rs. 5. - Here.
We need to talk.
It can't be done at home.
You mother will turn sad.
You can't live under my roof like this.
I can't have more enemies.
I have two daughters.
I have a wife too.
Though we were poor, we had peace. That is gone now. - Father..
None of this was intentional.
Maybe..
I raised you for 27 years.
I spent my life's savings to fight your case in court.
I have neither money nor time now.
I must take care of your siblings too.
I'm glad. I'm glad you spoke your mind.
I'll leave.
Don't tell mom that you asked me to.
Tell her I am adamant.
I don't want you to leave right now.
Take your time and leave in a day or two.
Go somewhere else and live your life.
No need. What life do I have now?
You may leave.
I'll come when I feel like seeing you.
Didn't he come?
No. - Then why did the SI summon you?
He was released from custody. There are no charges against him.
Then where did he go?
He went somewhere.
Where to? - I asked him
not to come here again.
How cruel of you!
Where will my son go now?
He may go anywhere he wants to.
Let him escape this wretched place.
Let him live somewhere.
What is it? - Can you sing that song?
Now? - Yes.
Hey.. Get up..
Hey.. - Yes.
"The sweet essence of the soul.."
"The river of emotions"
"from the heart is.."
"the sweet essence of the soul.."
"Oh, fragrant flowers! Do blossom again"
"in this lonely path"
"under pale moonlight."
"Oh, fragrant flowers! Do blossom again"
"in this lonely path"
"under pale moonlight."
"Though ignited.."
"Though ignited"
"the flame of my life"
"struggles to stay alive."
"Like this tale of love.."
"The sweet essence of the soul.."
"The river of emotions"
"from the heart is.."
"the sweet essence of the soul.."
"Oh, emotions! Fill my evenings"
"to adorn yourself with dew drops"
"brought by the wind."
"Oh, emotions! Fill my evenings"

"Though silent.."
"Though silent, my consciousness"
"never falls into the abyss of memories"
"within me when your fingers touch me."
"The sweet essence of the soul.."
Mother!
Careful! - Where were you, dear?
I'm around.
Didn't you tell me that you wouldn't let me go?
I'll always be at your beck and call.
I'm relieved that you are away from this place.
But I don't want to go anywhere else.
I'm tired of running, Mother.
What is the point in being a man if I cannot save myself?
I worry about you. - Why?
I'm not who I once was.
I am more courageous now.
I'm ready to face anything.
Where is Latha? Does she have a play today?
She is attending rehearsals.
She left with her father a couple of days ago.
We must put an end to this, Mother.
We must marry her off.
God! I wish I could see that soon.
Ambika.. - Did Ramanan remarry?
I hear all kinds of stories about that.
I was just asking about you, Sister.
I heard that you've started selling fish for a living.
That is true. - Couldn't you have found any other job?
Who will hire a murderer, Mother?
Selling fish is not that bad.
I cried when I heard it from your father.
All our hopes about you joining the police..
We wished for a lot of things.
There is no point in thinking about it now.
Where are you staying now?
All I need is a place to sleep and I have it.
Shall I make some black tea? - No, Sister.
I should get going. I have to meet someone.
Mom, give this money to dad.
Keep it with you.
We have enough for our needs.
It's not for my sake that I'm now doing the job of a fishmonger.
What's the point in it all if you don't accept this?
Take it.
Inform Latha that I've sent some money to Rameshan.
Why do you have to live separately
just because dad said something?
Why don't you move in here? - I won't, Mom.
Dad did have a point.
Why should you bear the repercussions of my karma?
People say that I'm on the outs with you.
Let them keep believing so.
I'll come here when you feel like seeing me.
Isn't that enough? See you.
Brother!
When the bus halted at Ramapuram junction, I looked for you there.
Are you leaving already? - Yes.
I was actually upset that I couldn't see you or dad.
I feel glad now that I have seen everyone.
I hope I have your permission to do this, don't I?
Are you keeping well? - Yes, Dad.
Are you leaving when I just got here?
I wanted to talk to you. - What is it?
If you plan on living in this village
I can't let you live separately.
I'm not living in this village
but in Ramapuram, which is 4-5 km away from here.
You should go inside.
You look exhausted. Get some rest. I'll come some other time.
Brother.
Are you need of money?
I have some money with me now.
Najeeb, did Sethu come here?
He had a bottle of soda when he came here in the evening.
I don't know where he went after that. What is it?
We have a small situation. - What is it?
There are some new faces in town.
Who are they? - There are three or four of them.
I saw them riding with Keerikkadan Jose's brothers.
I know one of them. Kunjappu.
He works as a porter in Cochin.
He is an excellent martial artist.
He has learned both 'Kalaripayattu' and Karate.
He is a notorious criminal.
Why are they here?
I have my doubts.
They are here either to visit Mr. Jose' house
or they were asked to come here for a purpose.
What did you find?
He isn't admitted to any of the local hospitals.
I wonder if he is lying dead somewhere.
I feel the same, too.
Didn't you send them back in the night itself? - Yes.
We shouldn't bother enquiring about him anymore.
We should pretend as if we know nothing about what happened to him.
Oh, God! - Sister, he is awake.
Sister.
Please don't try to get up. It will hurt.
A few of your wounds needed stitches.
Where am I?
Which is this place?
Don't worry. You're safe here.
Give him some water.
Vinu, come here. Don't disturb him.
Let him sleep peacefully.
Oh, no!
What are you doing?
What do you want?
I want to go.
In this physical condition?
You may leave after a couple of days.
I won't let you leave until then.
What right do you have to say that?
I didn't let you die, did I?
That's why I have that right.
Come and lie down. Come on.
We are cooking some rice granules into porridge.
You may have it once it is ready.
Please lie down.
The doctor will be here after a while.
You can tell him about your difficulties.
Whose house is this? - Mine.
That's our dad.
Do you know him?
The answer is obvious, isn't it?
Hey.
I heard you've made some new friends.
Yes, why should you care?
Where is he now? - Aren't you the one who would know?
How would I know?
Let me make something clear. Sethu isn't dead.
Watch out. - But we didn't hurt him.
You didn't but you asked others to do it for you.
Did Porter Kunjappu and his gang leave? - I-I don't know.
Why are you here?
Sister asked me to come here. - Why?
You need not answer to him. He came to see me.
You may leave, Mr. Thomas.
Shut up. He is a part of the Keerikkadan family.
Like you care about him!
You got rid of them after Mr. Jose's death, didn't you?
Should we have let her get baptised and brought her home as his widow?
You are responsible for Jose's relationship with her.
But we will take care of him. He's part of our family.
He is Jose's son.
What is it? Tell me.
Sister asked us not to tell anyone.
Sister? She wasn't spawned by your father!
Sister, my foot! She is an illegitimate child!
Tell me what's happening in secret.
Am I not your uncle after all?
There is someone at home.
She asked me to tell you that he has woken up.
Has he? - Yes.
Who is it?
I'll tell you.
It's who you suspect. Sethu Madhavan.
Were you referring to Parameshwaran? - Yes.
He is the only one who cares about us in this village.
We tell him everything that happens here.
He was here in the morning, but you were asleep.
He asked us to inform him when you wake up.
I've sent Vinu to do it.
Do you really know who I am?
I know who you are.
You are Sethu Madhavan, aren't you? You killed our dad.
Why did you save me, despite knowing that?
If you had just ignored me
you could have seen me bleed to death.
And then what? Would your death bring
our father back?
Would that compensate our loss?
You could've seen your father's murderer bleed to death!
A sight worth watching!
I don't want anyone to die.
Death only brings loss.
Do you think you gained anything when you killed my dad?
Imprisonment for eight years.
We lost the only one who was supporting us.
Someone would suffer the same fate if you die.
Also, Parameshwaran has told us about the past.
My dad could have forgiven you.
I've never hated you.
Could you please have some mercy on me, at least now?
What is it, ma'am? - Take him away from here.
I can't believe I'm letting Jose's murderer inside my home.
I can't tolerate it anymore.
You are overwrought for no reason.
I don't understand how she is able to do this.
Jose loved her more than Vinu.
He loved her so much!
But she..
I don't feel I'm doing something wrong, Mom.
Whoever he be, he deserves to be shown some humanity.
I know dad's soul will forgive me.
Why hold grudges against someone who was about to die?
He is all right now.
I can't approve of him staying here anymore.
Okay. Let me see him.
Dear, have you saved some rice for me?
Is that even a question?
We do that every day.
That's the only thing I'm certain of.
There wouldn't be any at my home.
Everyone just needs my money.
There won't be anyone to take care of me when I'm down and out.
Dad, why don't you stop this once and for all?
Do you think it's easy to?
My enemies are waiting for a chance to pounce.
My also cause of concern is you.
Once something happens to me, my relatives won't spare you.
Vinu would survive as he is a boy.
No one would approve of you.
Are you taking him?
Yes, that will be better.
Let's try to convince mom.
The doctor insisted that he take bed rest for two days.
I can take care of it.
Even she said something that made sense.
We should try to understand her feelings.
Call a car..
It's okay. We can go in an autorickshaw.
I can't express my gratitude to you in words.
I destroyed the peace and happiness of this family.
But now, all of you
saved me from death.
I don't know how to to thank you for that.
I will be thankful.
I.. I will..
Tell your mom that I left. - Okay.
Why are you staring? Get lost!
Can't you go home? - No.
I won't go home, especially in this condition.
I will arrange a room in the lodge for you
until you recover. Later, you can stay here.
What are you thinking about?
About our lives.
Enemies yesterday, Close friends now.
It is all strange.
The family of Jose
has even helped me, the one who killed him.
They are very good at heart.
Jose loved and cared them a lot
and so did they.
Don't he have another family?
Yes, his legal wife and daughters stay in his ancestral home.
Madhavi has suffered a lot.
She was a high-born noble lady.
She married a navy officer in her youth.
Indu is his daughter.
He died in an accident while Indu was a kid.
Then they were abandoned.
Madhavi became a prostitute for their survival.
Jose met her at Kochi.
Later, Jose became a regular visitor there.
She stopped her misdeeds.
Once, Jose sought an opinion from me.
I want your opinion on a matter.
The neighbours here are creating issues regarding my regular visits.
I have decided to take them to Ramapuram with us.
Then what will you do?
We will buy that house near the temple
and have them stay there.
What is your opinion?
What about your family members?
I will act as I wish. No one will dare question me.
They lived peacefully when Jose was alive.
He cared for Indu a lot.
Now, Indu is struggling hard to take care of her family.
She took tuition once, but nothing went smooth
as people misbehaved to her and the bad impression
about Madhavi was also a reason.
She works in a telephone booth now.
She was right.
Death can only create losses.
Her father and step-father are gone.
I spoiled their lives. Poor girl!
Yet she was kind to me.
I don't know how I can repay for these mistakes.
I am confused.
I am not blaming you.
He might be good at heart
but he killed Jose.
What would people say?
After all
Parameshwaran said Jose's brothers had attacked him
I got scared upon knowing that.
They are waiting for a reason to torture us all the time.
Mom, why did he kill our dad?
Don't you have anything to study?
Open the door! - What do you want?
I'll tell you later. Open the door!
I won't open, unless you tell what the matter is.
Break the door down, Joy.
Joy, what are you trying to do?
Where is he? The killer of my brother Jose.
No. He is not here now.
Don't lie. I know that he is inside.
He was here.
When we woke up at night, hearing some noise
we found a man lying in a pool of blood.
We couldn't recognise the person.
Indu went and called our neighbour Dr. Alex.
We could recognise him only after wiping the blood on his face.
After getting his wounds dressed, he was here for a few days.
He left today evening.
Now there is nobody else in this house other than us.
Where did he go? - We don't know.
We didn't ask him and he didn't tell us.
Why didn't you inform us that Mr. Jose's murderer was here?
What was the need to do that? - It was needed!
You didn't have to inform! As you are not his daughter.
But your mom had to. The boy behind you is of Jose's blood.
Come on. Let's go.
See what has happened.
I had warned you before.
You have no idea what we will have to undergo due to this!
Why did you even try to save him?
"Will happiness ever flow"
"in my melancholy nights"
"and along my lonely paths?"
"Will happiness ever flow"
"in my melancholy nights"
"and along my lonely paths?"
"In this calmness.."
Oh, was it you? Come in.
What is all this?
It is just a mark.
There are many more on my body.
But I am still alive.
I had been to your house.
Your father said that you were staying in a workshop.
When I enquired there, I got to know about this lodge.
He told me what happened.
Why don't you stay in your house?
Which house are you talking about?
I don't have an abode of my own.
Look there.
Sethu Madhavan lost everything on those streets.
My dreams, my life.. I lost everything.
I got a crown instead.
Now look at my face.
No explanation is needed anymore.
Doesn't it look good?
We can fix that.
For what? This should remain as such.
This is a feather in Sethu Madhavan's cap.
A feather? - Yes. It is a feather.
Don't you understand? Idiot!
Why are you laughing this way?
You have changed a lot.
You are not the same old Sethu. - You are right.
How low can a man go?
Earth is the limit, isn't it?
But I am being pushed lower. What can I do?
I am not King Mahabali to be lowered to the netherworld.
I am just a normal human. Sethu Madhavan.
I want to win at least once.
Just once.
Don't worry. Everything will be all right.
Don't even utter that word!
Everything will be all right? I am tired of hearing that!
My mind kept repeating this.. Everything will be all right.
My mom, dad
my sisters, brother, Devi and you!
Everybody told me many times.
Did anything go all right?
Nothing is going to be all right! I am not going to be all right.
Sethu, let us go to our hometown.
I have arranged a job for you in my company.
We will meet my boss.
I don't want it. I won't come.
Then what are you going to do?
I have decided what to do.
Mr. Hamsa, I am in a hurry.
Be patient. I just have two hands.
When needed, my assistant won't be here.
You need one kilo, right? - Yes.
Where the hell were you? - I was on a tea break.
Then where did you go a while ago? - That was to pee.
You just want to waste your time. That's it!
Stop grinning and do your work!
How much do you want? - One kilo.
I want boneless meat.
Then what will I do with the bones?
You will become strong only if you eat these bones.
As if you are strong!
Any doubts?
Do you know how many people I have beaten up?
Haven't you seen me fighting with Keerikkadan Jose?
I have not even gotten a bruise. - You would have run away!
Run away? I have never done that in my life!
Even though I am sincerely working here
I still have the courage as before.
I forgot to tell you.
Sethu Madhavan had come searching for you.
Who? - Sethu Madhavan.
In search of me? Why?
How will I know?
He said he would come after a while.
Ouch. My stomach is hurting.
Mr. Hamsa, I want to go to the toilet.
You can go after you finish your work.
He got a stomach ache by hearing Sethu Madhavan's name.
Hey.. Stop making fun of me.
If you make me furious, you will see my true colours.
Mr. Hamsa, if he is coming for a fight
then you will have to get a new person instead of me.
I will finish him! Central Jail is nothing new to me.
No, Haidrose! Don't be so foolish.
Don't stop me. - Haidrose! - I will kill him!
Haidrose!
Hey!
Stop there, Haidrose! Hey!
- Oh..
What are you doing? - I will kill you!
I will kill you! - Whom do you want to kill?
Hey, I need your help.
Can you stand with me?
What? - I want to live.
Do you have the courage to stand by me?
Move aside! - Is he crazy?
I want the job that you had offered me before.
What are you thinking? Is it a problem? - Not at all.
Nobody will ever compete within your range.
I will chop the hands of whoever tries to do so.
I wanted you, not because of your physical strength.
I have stronger men than you.
You are the one who killed Keerikkadan Jose.
I wanted that fear among the people when they see you.
But do you have it now?
Of course! People shudder on hearing his name.
But now, people know that you were
beaten up by Keerikkadan's hired men.
Hey, Keerikkadan Jose fought like a man!
He never used to fight from behind.
You got me beaten up by goons. I will beat you in public now!
Hey!
Sunny, Sethu Madhavan is beating up Mr. Thomas and Mr. Joy.
Where? - In town.
You! Leave him. I'll kill you!
Stop there.
Take the knife, boss. - No!
Please. Don't do anything. Please.
Get lost!
Everyone, disperse! - Come.
Come out if there is anyone else.
I'll kill anyone who touches me.
I'm not the same old person anymore. I'll keep my word.
Stand aside.
What is it?
Why are the police here? - I don't know.
What is the matter?
Don't you know? Is your son a thug?
My God. What did Sethu do? - He is not here, sir.
Where is your son? - We don't know. He doesn't come here.
What did he do, sir? - I'll find him for sure.
I'll make sure I do. You won't get him back in one piece.
You can do as you please.
Enquire about it, Father. - Why?
I don't have the time to enquire what happens everywhere.
I can't stand this anymore.
Stop crying. We don't have a son anymore. He is dead.
I'm not sad..
Did you eat? - No.
My lawyer will come tomorrow. - Okay.
Go to the police station. - Mr. John is a bad man.
He has a habit of hitting people. - Nothing will happen.
I have called the DYSP. He is close to me. There is nothing to fear.
I'm not scared. - You have put fear in the people of Ramapuram.
It is the right time to scout the range.
Let everyone know that you work for me.
We'll do it. - Eat and get some sleep.
You can order downstairs if you want liquor.
We'll order some. - What? - Alcohol.
It helps with stress. It'll also help you sleep.
Do you want brandy, whiskey, or rum?
Anything.
Take this.
Should I pour another 100 ml? - This is enough.
I need some. - Okay. - For some courage.
We are going to the police station and court. - That is why I drank.
Sir. Our fate is saluting officers like this.
There is always a phone call if someone rapes or murders.
Starting from the CI, all the way to the IG.
From the Chief Minister to the local politicians.
We can't change the world. This is just a job.
I'm advocate Zachariah Thomas.
Sit down. - Yes. - Don't stand. Sit down.
Should I sit? Maybe not.
Do you want to sit? I'll make you sit.
The DYSP called, right? They have to be taken to court.
Yes. I'm ordered not to touch them. I can talk.
What is the mark on your forehead? - It got scratched by a nail.
Are you making fun of me? - No.
People like you won't see it unless we are dead.
But if someone rich is hurt.. - Shut your mouth!
Are you drunk? - Yes, I work at a liquor shop. I can't drink tea.
How dare you come here like this! - Sir, the DYSP said..
You will go free this time. But don't take that for granted.
I will get you eventually. I'll break your bones.
Hameed, I'm going. Give them what they want.
What are you thinking? He will mess you up.
Don't try to scare me. I'm not scared of this place.
I need to be somewhere. Do the court proceedings fast.
Did you think that you can get me arrested?
I'll beat you and your brothers again. No one will touch me.
Send some thugs and goons if you dare. Let's see.
Do you have something stuffed in your mouth?
If you hurt me or my people again, I'll break your arm. Bye!
Boss, we'll take a walk. Let the vehicle come behind.
People think that the SI John has beaten us up badly. Let them see.
Park the jeep in front of the bar. - Get going.
Stop us if you dare.
Who in the Keerikkadan family dares stop us?
Let's go.
Cover up the fire.
I'll kill you all!
Stop!
I told you to stop!
Don't hurt him. - Shut up! I'll kill him.
I got two of them, boss.
Shall I chop their hands off?
Save us. - Do legal work, not this.
Don't hurt us. We won't do it again.
We won't show restraint like the excise people. We will kill you.
Did you understand who I am? - Yes. - I know.
If I hear that you've brewed again, I'll chop your hands off.
Mr. Divakaran's bar is not a charity. Do you understand?
Yes. - Get lost. - Kunjamma, run!
Run. - Come, Janu.
This stuff is tons better than the stuff that our boss brews.
Take a drink.
A lady has come to meet you. - Who is it?
Come inside..
What happened? - I am here to see you.
Did you come alone? - Yes.
What is happening, Brother?
It was not a serious injury. I am fine now.
Why did you come here?
Mother is sad. Hameed told father about what happened.
Do you know the stories people say about you in the village?
People talk about you like they talked of Keerikkadan Jose.
Yes. I want them to talk about me.
Why are you doing this?
I don't know. I tried to stay away from violence but I couldn't.
If we can't live the way we want, we just go with the flow.
Why are you doing this? Are you doing this for us?
Else, are you doing this to earn for yourself?
How can you do this? - Don't ask me anything.
I am nothing in front of you, Sister.
You are working as a drama artiste for our family.
Let me also act in life.
Do you want to know the reason? I don't want you to act anymore.
I want to get you married off to a big family
where there are lots of people. It was my dream.
We can't get anything back which we have lost in our past.
It is possible..
I will make it possible.
Ambika, Rameshan and you
should be happy in life. I will do anything for that.
Don't cry. You will be all right.
Don't go for dramas anymore.
I can't come there to meet mom.
Please convey my regards to her.
Dad must be angry with me.
He abuses you when he is drunk. Else, he will be lost in thoughts.
So sad.
Our father used to be different.
Don't be angry at him because he consumes alcohol.
He is hurt. That is why he drinks.
Don't be late. I will drop you in the company jeep.
No, Brother. I will take an autorickshaw.
Why did your sister come here? Is there anything special?
Nothing.
The villagers have adorned me with Jose's crown and sceptre.
Why do you have a doubt about it?
Keerikkadan Jose is nothing in front of you.
I don't know when a successor will take up my position.
I have to fulfil my duties before that.
I need money for that.
Is money a problem for you? How much do you want?
Just give the word.
Do you know the difficulties of managing a bar and hotel?
Especially when it comes to a village like Ramapuram.
I want your full support.
Do you want to drink some more? - No..
We are in a hurry.
We came here for a reason.
What is the matter?
It's not serious. He needs some money.
We can't ask help from strangers.
How much do you want? - Not much, just Rs. 10,000.
I can't give you such a huge amount.
Sir, he will give Rs. 5,000 now. The rest will be given soon.
What can I say now? - Nothing.
Now you can give him Rs. 5,000. We need each other.
Let's go. - Sir, sit down. Don't be angry.
Who is it? - It's me.
Who is that?
What do you want?
I want to say something.
At this time?
Forgive me.
Are you drunk? - Yes, A little.
We lost our lives.
We didn't lose it purposefully.
You were born into a palace and lost everything.
I was waiting for the training order to become an SI.
Our destiny has betrayed us.
Let it betray us.
I came back here to be killed by Jose.
I would die if Jose hit me hard. But yet, I killed him.
I don't know how I did it. But I killed him.
Why are talking about this now?
I made you orphans. We both have lost something.
We both have lost our lives.
Did you come here after getting drunk to say this?
I was able to say all these because I was drunk.
What is this? - It's money.
This girl no longer needs to go for that stupid job.
Nobody will trouble you anymore. I will take care of everything.
Are you trying to be our guardian? - No, I am repaying my debts.
I want to return everything you lost because of me.
Do you think that we will get everything back with this money?
I don't want anything. Please let us leave in peace.
Don't say that. Please take this.
For my sake.
You will be relieved if you give us money. But not me. Don't come here.
I have a daughter eligible for marriage.
She is already suffering because she is my daughter.
Along with that, now her name is defamed because of you.
I will not find peace until I get her married.
Please don't spoil our life with your help.
I- I will marry her.
Did you say you will marry her?
So that is your intention.
I never thought of it. But I just told you what I can do.
I will not get my daughter married to a goon like you.
I will agree to a daily labourer. But not for a goon.
I have suffered it. I don't want that life for my daughter.
Get lost. Don't come back here.
Did you hear him? Go inside.
Why do you need another job?
I have given you the best job anyone would ever offer you.
I am paying more than anyone will ever be ready to pay.
I can't afford to give more.
You no longer need to do anything. Your presence will be enough.
Ramapuram is under our control.
The bars are earning well.
Nobody is brewing liquor besides us.
The random goons from the market no longer trouble me.
In Pala, I have lots of enemies. We need to take care of it.
You should get a proper introduction there.
The people should be afraid of Sethu from Ramapuram.
Introduction should be shocking. - We will do it.
Something big should happen.
That range was under the control of Muzhikulam Kumaran.
I took the range to satisfy my ego.
Keerikkadan Jose has a brother named Antony.
Antony was in Kumaran's gang.
I know him. He was known as Karadi. We started together in this career.
Is he in the Kannur central jail? - Yes.
Kumaran introduced Karadi in Pala by making him kill two people.
He brutally killed two men in front of people in daytime.
There were no witnesses to the crime.
The witnesses had different statements.
The case was dismissed.
The Karadi later went to Thalasseri.
He killed three people there.
But he got trapped in that case.
They didn't spend money to get rid of the case.
You should go to Pala.
I have to teach my enemies a lesson.
I will pay extra money for that.
I will spend money and get you out of the case.
Yes.
Who is it? I will come now.
Are you going back to Ramapuram today? - No.
We want to enjoy some time here and will go back tomorrow.
It's okay..
When should we go to Pala?
We will go. - It's Karadi's backyard.
We should make an impact there.
Why are you looking stressed out?
Nothing.
Murder is a joke.
We should kill some stranger by using a knife or chopping a head.
Only then will we get an identity. We will get extra money for that.
If we kill more people, we will get more money and fame.
Come on..
I'm a man of my word. Did you like her?
Don't feel shy. Let him see you properly.
I think I have seen her before.
Is it? So you have met her before?
You are Sethu Madhavan's sister, right?
Do you remember me? - Yes.
He is also here in this hotel.
Oh, God. I want to leave.
If he comes to know.. - He would leave.
That's what smart people do.
Go and sit beside him and serve him the drinks.
Come on, do it. - I have to leave. I will come some other day.
Don't worry. He is not going to come here.
We are not going to leave this room for the next two days.
Even if he knows about it, tell him that it's a rehearsal. - Yes.
You can leave now.
You!
Are you rehearsing for this?
I'm going to kill you.
You!
You shouldn't have done this to me.
Someone had brought her for me.
I found out that it was her just now.
At least then, you should have left her.
Sethu, listen to me.. - Sir.
Take him away. - He..
Don't create a scene.
You cannot blame me for your sister becoming..
Stop it.
Get up!
I am going to..
Come here. - Leave me. I will go by myself.
Where? Do you have any more customers left?
Please listen to me.
Don't create a scene out here. - She has already spoiled it.
Now what more can happen?
Come here. I'm going to kill you.
Come.
Dad.
Oh, God!
Brother. - Open the door.
Open the door or I will break it down.
Open the door. - Please stop it.
So he is aware of it.
Are you really our dad?
Are you the one
whom we respected, admired and adored?
You can go home. Nobody else should be aware of it.
Are you not coming? - No.
Our dad should leave this world for me to enter this house again.
Our dad is a poor soul.
He was about to commit suicide when he first came to know about this.
Just because I was there on time, I was able to save him.
I had promised him that I won't repeat it, but couldn't keep up.
Only because of me, we are able to educate Ramesh.
I wanted him to prosper.
I've seen our dad getting depressed
but he was completely helpless.
I used to forcefully take him with me.
Stop it. You have been drinking for a long time.
I'm not satisfied. My heart is still filled with pain.
What sin have I committed for this?
Don't be disappointed. Everyone of us has some problem or the other.
Do you know about my mother?
She is known as Lorry Beevathu at Chinnakada in Kollam.
The lorry drivers are familiar with her. I'm her son.
I'm scared of visiting Kollam. My mom is still alive.
She is old now.
Everyone starts to burst out in laughter on seeing me.
But I feel so..
My dad is living happily somewhere else.
Najeeb, do you want to have a shot?
Sethu. I think you should go back to your house.
I don't have a house.
Dad passed me a message that came to the station.
Your dad in Divakaran's hotel..
In hotel.. - He committed suicide.
Oh, God!
"Oh, emotions! Fill my evenings"
"to adorn yourself with dew drops"
"brought by the wind."
"Though silent.."
"Though silent, my consciousness"
"never falls into the abyss of memories"
"within me when your fingers touch me."
"The sweet essence of the soul.."
"The river of emotions from the heart.."
"The sweet essence of the soul.."
Police gave us a letter along with Achu's other belongings.
It was written to you.
To Sethu Madhavan.
Now you have to fulfil all my responsibilities.
Don't abandon Latha. She is a poor soul.
I don't have anything else to say.
I had to shed tears only for you in my life.
Achuthan Nair.
I don't understand what made him take this drastic step.
He would have taken too much upon himself.
He had something in his mind for a long time.
He unexpectedly visited me at my home last week.
Saying that we should get together
he even bought a bottle of liquor to enjoy.
It had been a long time since we had been like this together.
We talked a lot.
Regarding Ammu's illness.
The doctors told him that she would be all right after a surgery.
We even talked about Ramesh's studies and Latha's marriage.
Also, many other things.
He started talking about you in ire.
But later, he started sobbing like a child.
While leaving, he told me that
he was going to move selling everything at Ramapuram.
He was not happy with that village.
Also, he told that as we are getting old, we should
start living like the good old days before dying.
He left. Now, when would be my turn?
Are you leaving? - Yes, I had already missed a lot of classes.
Can't you wait until all the rituals get over?
What are you talking about? I'm in my fourth year.
Let him go.
Did you tell mom? - No, she is asleep.
It's because of the medicine. I didn't want to wake her up.
If you bring her to the medical college
I can ask our cardiology professor to examine her.
Brother, one moment, please.
Why did he commit suicide?
I asked everyone, but nobody is aware of it.
It's all because of me.
I had hurt him like anything.
It reminds me of your younger self
when I see you like this.
He used to ask me whether he would ever
be able to see the old you.
Whom do we have to quarrel with?
At least, you can cry
but what about me?
Coffee.
Drink it, Mother.
She was complaining
that you are not talking to her.
She is just like Devi.
What is your name, dear? - Sree Lakshmi.
It's all my fault
or else, she would have been alive.
And you wouldn't have ended up like this.
Sethu.
Will you do what I say?
I will.
Anything for you.
I want to leave this place.
I am done with my life here.
Sell it and let's leave as fast as we can.
It's not just me. Everyone wants it.
Latha and Ambika, too.
Your father wanted it, too. - Let's go, Mother.
Let it be as you wish.
But where to?
Our ancestral house?
Don't you want to?
It is not that, Uncle.
What can I do there?
At least, I have a job here.
All we have to do is ignore others.
Nothing can replace money.
There are other ways to earn other than looting the poor.
I don't want to be fed with that
nor my children.
You have to protect them now.
My days are counted.
All I have is my wife and our grandchild.
Who else will protect them when I am gone?
I will protect them, Uncle.
Not just that.
You have to take good care of them.
All our ancestral assets belong to you.
There is a good house.
We have enough plots too.
If you work hard, the plot will feed you.
Sell this house
and start a new venture with it if you can't work in fields.
I am here to say goodbye.
We are leaving this place.
To our home town.
I couldn't go without seeing you
even though it is prohibited.
Come inside.
No. - We heard about your father.
Parameshwaran told us.
I can't leave them.
Mother is sick.
Are you leaving your job here? - Yes.
I might have to kill anyone if I go on like this.
But you can make money.
Are you mocking me?
I am leaving. I'll visit if I am around.
Don't keep anything in mind.
I have nothing bitter towards you.
This life is hell. - Say no more.
I can understand.
See you.
Poor guy!
You scared me.
I was using the shortcut.
I want your address. - For what?
Why do people ask addresses? - Don't!
I will visit you.
Your mother will misunderstand.
I told her before leaving.
Were you sincere
about what you asked my mother that night?
What? - About marrying me.
That!
Do you think that was a drunk talking?
No.
I felt it as sincere.
Boys always used to pass comments on me.
They even use bad words.
And some wanted to spend a night with me.
Some will say that they will keep me.
But you are the first to ask my hand.
Do you know what mom said a while ago?
If you had asked for my hand now, she would have given her consent.
Shall I believe that you still have it in your mind?
If you were not serious about it
I will not force you.
I can hope, at least.
While we are sailing
having hopes of seeing a shore afar is such a relief.
Not afar. Just close by.
Just as far as your hands can reach.
"The moon sailed like a boat in the night sky."
"The shining stars accompanied the twilight."
"The atmosphere seemed musical."
"The accent of sound was in rhythm."
"The moon sailed like a boat in the night sky."
"The shining stars accompanied the twilight."
"The fingers moved in unison"
"to produce rhythmic music."
"The fingers moved in unison"
"to produce rhythmic music."
"The time is flowing musically."
"The birds flew with peace."
"Happy moments have started raining."
"The desires have started blossoming."
"The moon sailed like a boat in the night sky."
"The shining stars accompanied the twilight."
"The dreams started thriving"
"with hopes of fulfilment."
"The dreams started thriving"
"with hopes of fulfilment."
"The white clouds spread across"
"to adorn the earth like anklets."
"The dreams started thriving"
"like the peacock spreading its feathers."
"The moon sailed like a boat in the night sky."
"The shining stars accompanied the twilight."
"The atmosphere seemed musical."
"The accent of sound was in rhythm."
"The moon sailed like a boat in the night sky."
"The shining stars accompanied the twilight."
Please don't force me anymore.
I won't do this hereafter.
I have told so many times that I don't want to marry.
Others might not understand me.
But you know the reason behind my decision, Brother.
Your brother is trying to rebuild broken things.
Uncle Krishnan will go and talk to Uncle Ramanan.
I was thinking of giving him the money
we get from selling our land in Ramapuram.
If he agrees on that
that will solve Ambika's problem temporarily.
Then you are the one I have to take care of.
I won't be a burden for you. - Dear, understand what I'm saying.
If someone comes forward to marry you
with knowledge of your background and profession..
Will you tell him that I'm a bad girl?
Brother, one might marry a woman who has been with two men.
But he will never.. - Stop it!
There is a limit for saying things like this.
I won't enjoy peace of mind in this lifetime.
You won't let me enjoy it.
Who are you? What do you want? - What is your name, dear?
I'm Jenci, daughter of Jose.
Who came in the car? - A man who looks like a bear.
Oh, my God. It's Uncle Antony.
Jenci, he is our uncle. He was in Kannur jail.
Like that
my son Jose was beaten to death in the street like a dog.
I had to witness that.
The man who killed him is still alive.
There is no men in the family to avenge him.
Everybody cares about wealth and nothing else.
Those who can't avenge Brother Jose's death
has no right to his wealth.
Antony, don't say that.
Your brothers are lucky enough to be alive after getting beaten up
by him in the street.
You have to be a man to do that.
The harlot and her children are living in the house
that Jose had built.
They couldn't even evict them.
The pussy cats have arrived.
Antony, please don't make a scene.
We won't pose any problems. - You should keep quiet.
Antony, it's been long since we met.
Have you done your time? - Are we born to the same father?
Why are you talking like this? - Then why are you being cowards?
You have brought shame on our family.
It's not like what you think. - Shut up!
Brother Jose is the one who made us who we are today.
Will his spirit forgive us?
I was in jail for the past 11 years.
I'm ready to go back if it's for Brother Jose.
I will avenge his death and our family's honour.
You are my true son!
With your blood-stained hands
you must serve your father food.
I will offer you food with his blood
sprayed all over it.
Everybody in our family will eat that food, right?
Yes, you have to do it.
I have asked Krishnan to enquire something. - What is it, Mother?
Do you remember Rema, the elder daughter of Devayani?
Rema? - She and your sister were classmates.
She has visited our home once with your sister.
Yesterday, brother told me that she looks pretty.
She will be a good match for you. - You mean, me?
Mother, what are you saying? - Don't you want get married?
It's not the time to think of that. - When will it be time?
After my death? - Why are you talking like this, Mother?
I have a wish that you would start a new life.
I have no dreams like that.
But I will complete your wish.
You have to agree to that.
What do you mean?
My life is filled with paying debts.
I'm indebted to you, elder sister, Latha
to my dad.
I'm indebted to a family that was destroyed because of me.
Which family?
Haven't I told you about Indu and her mother in Ramapuram?
I will marry only her.
Are you talking about the daughter of Keerikkadan Jose? - Yes.
Her name is Indu. I gave her my word.
I won't let you get into more trouble.
I won't be at peace if you don't agree to the marriage.
This is a debt I can't repay.
What can I get you to drink? - Not now.
I came here to see a house nearby.
His mother asked me to talk to you too.
Indu is your daughter, right? - Yes, Indumathi.
Where is she? - She is at work. I will call her.
No need. I will see her on the way.
There is no milk left. Can I offer you a black tea?
Can I offer you buttermilk instead?
As you wish. I will have some.
You can tell she was raised in a good family.
She was a very pleasant, modest and humble.
She was undoubtedly brought up in a noble family.
I don't know how she fell in love with a goon.
That's fate.
They have only one request.
It should be conducted as early as possible.
She asked me to save her daughter as soon as possible.
Let's do it as soon as possible. - That may not happen, Mother.
There are a lot of things here to take care of.
There is a time for everything.
You told us about their plight.
A girl's life can change in a short amount of time.
You should keep your word.
Here.
Not good enough. - It's sharp.
Can I slice a head with one slash?
Antony, he is showing off, making us look like fools.
He is marrying Brother Jose's whore's daughter.
Who? - Sethu Madhavan.
Where is Sethu Madhavan? - Please leave my house now.
This is our house. - Who are you and what do you want?
Where is he? - Sethu Madhavan has not come.
Please don't hurt him. - Get him out of here.
Don't embarrass my guests. - You have no right to say that.
I'm begging you to not spoil our lives.
We won't let you live.
You invited the guy who killed our brother into this house.
You want us to see him marry your daughter, right?
Oh, God. - Leave, if you want to live.
If you don't, we will kill all of you.
Uncle Krishnan, we are not leaving until we give her the ring.
Who do you think you are? - Get your hands off her.
What are you doing?
My daughter! Are you all right?
If you try to be bold again, I will strip you naked.
Please don't hurt her. - Don't think of us as cowards.
We will kill him. You can tell him that.
Come, let's go.
Come on out. I want to see you.
Don't enter my home. - What are you going to do?
I'm giving you 24 hours to evict this house.
If not, I will kill each and every one of you.
This is my word.
I thought you would be late.
Were they happy to see you?
Why are you so silent?
We were fortunate enough to leave there alive.
Look at Latha's lips.
Please tell me what happened. - There is nothing to say.
Some men looking like monsters came in.
They tried to kill us.
Anyway, we should not agree to this marriage. Don't tell Sethu.
One thing is sure. Something is going to happen there.
What happened, Uncle Krishnan? I need to know. - Nothing.
Keerikkadan's threatened us. We backed out. That's it.
I heard everything. Don't try to hide it.
Tell me what happened, dear.
It happened on the bus. - Don't lie! Did they hurt you?
Didn't you hear? They didn't hurt her.
Mother, will you be okay if I bring Indu to this house?
No.
I won't allow such girls in my house. - Okay.
No need, Mom.
But I am going to bring her here.
Sethu, don't make a decision in a hurry.
We will think about it. - I don't need to.
Son, I won't leave you! - Don't stop me from going.
Don't go there. They will kill you.
Do you think I will allow them to kill me?
I am not your old brother.
I have become ruthless.
Nobody will dare to confront me!
No. I won't let you go.
Don't go, dear.
Are you going to take lives again? - No.
I am trying to live.
Not to die or kill.
She had saved my life.
Isn't it my duty to save her life?
Don't worry, Mom. I will be back.
Indu.
Indu!
Why are you here?
Get lost! You killed my dad.
Have you come here to get my mom and sister killed?
Just leave..
Indu, it's me.
No, don't stay here. Go back.
Open the door!
Don't let him come in. I don't like it. - Go inside.
Go inside!
Listen to your mom!
Please don't stay here. You will be in grave danger.
They have been coming here.
They know that you will come here.
They will kill you! - It's all right.
But I will leave only if Indu accompanies me.
I won't come. Tell him to leave, Mom.
Do listen to her.
I have not come just to leave.
You can open the door if you want to send Indu along with me.
No.
Why did you open the door, Mom?
Escape from here before they come.
No. I won't leave you alone here.
I have no other go, dear.
I can't leave this place.
Don't think about me.
You can leave, dear. - I won't go..
Just listen to me.
We will leave together for now.
But not forever. This house belongs to you.
We will come back for sure.
With all your rights and privilege. I will support you.
Don't come closer.
I will finish you!
Move aside! - Leave my mother!
Leave my mother!
Hey, how dare you!
Dear! Dear..
Indu!
Dear!
Mom! Oh..
Mom..
Indu!
Go! Just leave.
Let nobody know this.
You should not have my fate.
Sethu Madhavan's fate.
Go!
'The story of the king who lost his crown and sceptre ends here.'
"After caressing a flower"
"and reminiscing old memories.."
"The emotions sought something"
"while filling me with tears."
"Even the memories seemed to seek"
"something for a while."
"A crown of thorns drowned"
"in a surge of waves."
"The silence prepares itself"
"to aid me in tough times."
"Still, a silent sob remains."
"After caressing a flower"
"and reminiscing old memories.."
"Why did the dragonfly depart"
"without waiting for a response?"
"Why did it weep inside?"
