I am coming.
You start with your tantrums if I get a little late. Naughty!
Grandma. - Yes?
Kalyani! Kalyani, stop there. - Grandma. - Stop, I say.
I want you to dress me. - Stop there. - Okay, dear.
I shall dress you.
Why are you crying?
Because she is stubborn!
She is not stubborn.
You are the one who is stubborn. Am I right, dear? - Yes.
She doesn't get ready even by 9:30 a.m.
She expects the autorickshaw to wait for her. - Okay.. - Mom.
Oh! I am coming. - Go.
Don't cry, dear.. - Why are you crying?
Don't you want to go to school? - No.
She loves to go to school. Am I right?
Is Mr. Sooryan at home? - No.
He has gone for a music concert. - I see. - Babu.
Yes? - Please see to it that she carries her
water bottle and tiffin box when she returns home. - Go. - Okay.
Come, dear. - Bye.
Bye, Mom. - Bye. - Bye.
Bye, Mom. - Bye.
On this occasion where we are celebrating
the 50th anniversary of this institute
along with the alumni meet
as a former student of this institute
I would like to thank the organisers
of this programme for letting me participate
and perform in this programme.
My hearty greetings to all of you.
Hey! You can't leave like that.
Your music concert was nice. Everybody enjoyed it too.
But that won't suffice.
You must sing a fast beat song for us.
A fast beat song?
Didn't we come here to sing classical songs?
We know that.
But you must sing a song on which we can dance.
You can leave only after that. - Yes..
Well.. A song on which you can dance..
H-How can I sing such a song using classical instruments?
You need not worry about that.
Idiots! That's what they are.
Jose..
Antony..
Madhavankutty..
Shankar..
"Can the noises that sound"
"like the bursting of a cracker"

"Listening to such songs"

I must say
you rocked the show.
Just like you used to do during our college days.
I have a question. - What?
Who invited you here?
I don't need an invitation.
I have never needed an invitation
to attend a programme. - You are right.
After all, I was the arts club secretary
of this college for some time.
You did use that opportunity to show off in this college.
Yes, I am still paying for that.
Didn't you recognise her?
That old frog incident. You..
Which one? B.Sc.? - Exactly! - Oh!
How could you forget the girl
to woo whom I had caught so many frogs?
Shall I say who she is?
The commissioner's daughter, Sunitha. - Yes.
You are right.
I had to spend two days in the lock-up.
But still, I didn't give up.
I took it up as a challenge.
Am I right? That's the strength of our love.
Sorry, I couldn't recognise you.
That's okay.
Where is your close friend?
Who?
The minister, Cherian.
Weren't you his partner in crime?
He is very busy.
He had called and said that he would try to come.
Didn't you bring your wife?
I.. I did. - Did you?
Where is she? Introduce her to us.
I had introduced her. - What do you mean?
When did that happen?
Well.. Didn't you hear my music concert?
So..
Music means everything to me.
The song was too good. - Autograph.. - Thank you..
An autograph, please.. - Sir.. - Enough.. Please.
Sooryan. - Yes?
Didn't you recognise me?
Mr. Krishnan. - Yes.
You got that right. So, you haven't forgotten me.
We had been to your house. - Okay.
They told us about your concert.
What brings you here? - We've a special deal for you.
It can't be called as special either. - Yes.
You are not new to such deals after all.
This year, for the Chembai music festival
we want you to perform a music concert for us. - Sure.
That too, with the music legend, Yesudas.
Yesudas?
I am surprised.
I can't believe my ears.
Believe it. Consider this the God's blessing.
Did Mr. Yesudas agree to this? - He did.
Not only that, he was very happy
when he heard your father's name. - Yes. - God!
We had arranged for a similar programme
three years ago.
A concert by your father and Yesudas.
But bad luck struck when he was on his way
to the concert.
But today, that luck has come to his son
who is as renowned as his father.
You are really lucky.
You are right. I am blessed to get this chance.
When is the programme? - On the 28th of next month.
Okay.
Where is Nandan?
Which hair oil do you use? - Coconut oil.
God! That's why you have head lice.
Ayurvedic oils are the best medicine to get rid of lice.
You don't even know that! - Nandan.
Sooryan calls me the moment I start talking to someone.
Continue with your dance practice.
You may go. Hey.
Yes? - Don't you remember my name and birth star?
Yes. - Feel free to approach me with a marriage alliance.
Oh, Goddess! Don't let me score a century.
This is my 99th wedding proposal. - Nandan.
I am coming!
What? Why did you call me? - Where were you?
Be silent, Dad. - They are here to book a show.
Here. - God! I am sorry. Don't be upset.
When and where is the programme?
Do you want 'Kuchipudi', Mohiniattam or 'Mayilattam'?
'Mayilattam'? What music concert is that?
Don't you know about 'Mayilattam'? - No.
Oh, God! I shall tell you. In 'Mayilattam'
we attach peacock feathers to our back and..
This form of dance is called 'Mayilattam'. - Stop. - Oh, God!
They are here to book my music concert.
Oh, God!
I can't fulfil my dream of buying an anklet now.
When is the programme? - On the 28th of next month.
We are not free that day. You may go.
What! - Check the diary once.
Checking the diary won't help.
But I shall do it for your sake.
"Oh, Lord Krishna"
"come fast."
"Oh, Lord Krishna.." - I think he is mad.
Yes. - Your dad is the one who is crazy.
Next month, we are free only on one day.
When is that? - On the 28th.
That's the date we want. - Okay then.
Sir, here is the advance. - No..
Deal the money matters with him.
I shall take your leave. - Okay.
Here. - Hold it.
Are these fake currency notes? - No.
Then give it to me.
Will you give us a receipt for making the payment?
Why? Don't you trust us?
If you don't, we shall meet on the 28th if you are alive then.
Idiot!
Mom.
Did you sleep already?
No, we were watching TV.
Okay. Sister. - Yes. - Get me a glass of water.
Ma'am, I have got all the things. - Okay.
There is coriander powder
chilli powder and turmeric powder.
Things are really costly these days.
The cost of beans has increased from Rs. 40 to Rs. 45
The price of Bengal gram has increased from Rs. 45 to Rs. 50.
Leave all that.
Do you know the cost of talcum powder and Kohl, Mr. Sooryan?
Yes, after all, I adorn myself with Kohl and Bindi every day.
Don't act too smart.
How was the concert? - It was too good.
The whole college was talking about my performance.
All the boys there were checking me out.
After all, you were playing out of tune.
Do you mean I didn't play the instrument well?
I deserve this! Do you know, ma'am?
I am like Lord Hanuman.
If you look inside my heart
you will see Mr. Sooryan in it.
And yet, he insults me like this.
Oh.. Why do you hurt him like this?
I said that for his own good.
I can't be better than this. - Mr. Sooryan.
Shall I leave? - Hey, give it to him and send him away.
I shall go with him.
Why? - Shouldn't I sleep tonight?
You can have dinner and walk to your house.
God! How can I go alone at this late hour?
Somebody might harass me.
Didn't I go with him last week after the programme?
I trust him. I shall go with him.
Well.. - What? - Should I go with him or sleep here?
Go away. - Don't be upset
when we meet tomorrow morning.
I will bash you.. - God!
Why are you looking up?
Is there anything up there? - No.
Oh, Goddess! Something has happened.
What happened, ma'am? - Get away. - God!
Oh, no.. - Oh! What is it? What happened?
Mom.. - What happened? - Oh, no..
What happened, Sister? - Oh, no!
Stop crying and tell us the matter.
I understood.
Some scoundrels must have eve-teased her.
They have nothing to lose! - Oh, no..
What is it? - Tell us..
Oh, no! He is gone, dear.
The police arrested Sundaran.
The police arrested him? - Yes.
What is the matter? - They took him away
for selling some cassettes.
Then it must be that cassette.
'Experiences and mistakes.'
Shut up! When did this happen?
The police arrived when he went to open the shop in the morning.
Oh, God! They must have bashed him.
Darn! - Oh, no.. - I have told him so many times
to stop that business.
He deserved what he got. Only then will he learn his lesson.
Didn't you hear him, Mom?
If anything happens to him, I will hang myself to death.
Don't do that, ma'am. - Take your hands off me!
Do something instead of wasting time.
Such a nuisance!
Let me talk to Mr. G.K. - Oh, no.. - Shut up!
Sir, what about our dance lesson?
There is no dance class today.
Don't you know that this is a non-bailable offence
as per the new law, sir?
To be honest, it is a very cheap act.
People spend crores to make a movie.
But people like him sell its pirated copies
even before the film releases.
Do you know how many poor people suffer because of this?
He sells the CDs of degraded films along with that.
These CDs are the ones that spoil the new generation.
Such films can be found in the computer and mobile phones
of students.
Don't you have kids? - No, sir. I swear.
But that's my wife's fault and not mine.
Don't you know that, Brother-in-law? - Shut up!
If you ever sell such CDs again
I will beat you to a pulp.
Do you understand? - Yes.
You may go. - I shall leave.
I am sorry for troubling you. - It's okay.
We shall take your leave. - Okay. - Okay.
He is safe now because of Mr. G.K.
He should have got beaten up.
Me? A war would have broken out then.
We have a union.
Union! Can't you stop this business?
Should I perform at music concerts instead?
Don't think that I am blaming you.
What did your father gain from music?
Just some useless tokens of appreciation!
I had asked him to compose
some peppy songs.
But he didn't listen to me. He could have made a fortune.
He is an avaricious man. He is greedy. - Yes.
For whom are you earning all this? - What do you mean?
It requires a lot of money to look after her needs.
She spends money on saris and beauty parlours.
Moreover, she eats like a pig.
In order to feed you
I will have to engage in illegal activities like this. - Hey!
Oh, no.. - Why are you crying?
Oh, God! - What do you have to say, Brother-in-law? - I..
What! - Sister, serve me food. Come.
You didn't tell me your opinion, Mother-in-law.
Doesn't anybody have an opinion here?
I have a question for you. - Do you now?
You sell that type of cassettes, right?
What type do you mean? - Glue.
It's blue and not glue.
That's how men like you call it. We call it glue.
Don't try to correct me. Will you give me a cassette?
A blue film? - No. 'Kuchipudi'.
What! - A cassette on 'Kuchipudi'.
Sir, the state school arts festival will begin next week.
I will be busy then. No dancer will be free.
If I get a cassette on dance
I could steal some dance steps and teach them to the kids.
Do you have any cassette like that?
Oh, God! - To hell with his cassette!
No wonder the police beat you up!
You will suffer. You will rot!
What is this? I will hit you.
Dance with more energy.
Come on.
Darn! - Why did you stop?
Let's stop for today.
The teacher who teaches me western dance will arrive now.
I am fed up. - So am I!
Go and take rest. - Okay.
Here is the rhythm board. Keep it. - Okay.
Are you done, sir? - Yes, we are done for the day.
I wanted to tell you this when I came.
You have slimmed down, Ms. Usha.
I have no peace of mind, sir.
What! - The 10th grade exams are round the corner.
She is weak in Maths. - Yes.
She may get grace marks if she manages to win
in the art festival. That's why
I am putting in so much efforts. - Don't worry, Ms. Usha.
Murali has said that he won't return from the Gulf
if she doesn't win the first prize. - Really?
If that happens..
Ms. Usha, I am there with you.
What is this, sir!
It's my hand on your shoulders! It isn't a snake.
What! - Should I move my hands
or do you want your daughter to win the first prize?
Oh, God!
She will definitely win.
"Who spread the sandalwood fragrance?"
"Is it the wind or the beautiful lady?"
Come on, swim. - Yes, like that. Move your hands.
Yes.. - Mr. Sooryan, she won't learn to swim like this.
First, get out of the water.
What! - Then throw her into the pond.
She will learn to swim on her own. - Enough, Uncle.
That's the only way. Or else, you'll have to support her. - What?
First, lift her up. - Okay.
Then throw her. - Like this? - Oh, God!
Get into the water and take a bath instead of sitting there.
I should do that, right? - Yes.
Wow.. - Now sit over here.
It feels good to swim like this. - Come on.
Get into the water and swim.
I will die if I do that.
If I die
my father will kill me when I get back home.
Oh, God!
I would have fallen into the water!
I did it!
This soap is shameless. Look where it went.
Yes, I found it.
Why did you come here?
Can't you take a bath on the other side? - A beauty queen!
He is here to ogle at us. Shameless man! - Hey.
He looks like a pervert. - Shut up.
You must build a toilet here, Sooryan.
Toilet? - No, I mean, walls.
I can't bath naked like this.
Then why don't you take a bath at your house?
Don't fight with me early in the morning.
Kalyani. Why did you stop, dear?
Don't you want to learn how to swim? - I am not well.
What happened? - I am feeling sleepy. - Hey!
Oh, no! Dear. Hey, Kalyani!
Dear.
Oh, my God!
Dear. - Kalyani. - Dear.
Kalyani.. - Kalyani..
Kalyani..
Kalyani.. What happened? - Dear.
Take a deep breath again. - Okay.
Turn around, dear.
You may go, dear. - Okay.
I can see a slight variation in her heartbeat.
There is nothing to worry.
It's a problem found in some children from birth.
That's it. We will have to do an echocardiogram.
It's better if you consult Dr. Alexander, the cardiologist
at Ernakulam National Hospital, for this.
I shall refer your case to him. Is that okay?
Okay.
There is nothing to worry.
This disease is called VSD.
Ventricular Septal Defect.
A small hole in the heart.
Some require a surgery to cure it.
But medicines will be enough to treat her.
It will get cured with her age.
Okay? - Thank you. Thank you, Doctor.
I feel relieved now.
She scared me to death. - She is a smart girl.
Darn! Where is he?
Where were you?
I met a friend of mine and we got talking.. Shall we go?
Let's go. Get in. - Okay.
Sooryan. - Yes.
What happened? - I.. I have a headache.
"The sound that echoes through the entire universe.."

"The enlightenment that reigns over all worldly pleasures."
"The sound that echoes through the entire universe.."
I don't know why, but I am famished.
Grandpa.
Come..
My dear, come to me.
Where is Kalyani? - She is asleep, Dad.
Has Divakaran come? - No.
Come.
Make it fast, Mom.
Why are you in a rush today?
I don't know why. I feel exhausted.
How was the concert?
The concert was great. - How can you say that?
Wait.
You need not get up. Sit there.
What did you sing today? - He is having his dinner.
Music feeds this family. He forgot about it.
While singing 'Ragavardhini Raga'
why did you use 'Gandharam' in place of 'Shadsruthi Rishabham'?
Do you see yourself as a music maestro?
If that's the case, get rid of that thought!
Music is not about singing what comes to your mind.
You have to realise that music is a language to express emotions.
Our devotion, anger, love
and all such emotions can be expressed through music.
You must be able to do that.
It is for that purpose we have the concept of Ragas.
If the notes in a Raga are changed
the whole Raga changes along with its meaning.
For you to call me father, you must be my son
and I must be your father.
If that changes, the relationship changes.
In the same way, each musical note is significant.
You must realise that you teach music to the next generation.
That's enough. Let him finish his dinner.
If such mistakes aren't corrected at the right time
they will go on to become grave ones in the future.
Have it.
Are you crying?
I should have paid attention.
Did you close all the doors? - Yes.
What about the kitchen door?
You are asking that as if I am new to this house.
The times have changed.
The newspapers are full of news about theft and robbery.
Did I hurt Sooryan a little too much?
You said everything that you had to and now you are concerned.
He made a few mistakes while singing.
But nobody was able to spot it.
If he focuses a bit more.. - You are right.
But if he has a job, it would be.. - He is trying.
What was wrong with the job at the school
which Poduval had mentioned?
Paying lakhs of rupees to become a teacher.
That too, a music teacher.
You know very well that he opposes it more than me.
Have you forgotten how old he is?
We shouldn't feel guilty for not having done our part.
Everything will be all right.
We haven't caused any harm to anyone.
The gaffer told me that the construction of Raji's house
will be over in a few weeks. - Let them take their time.
Don't worry about it.
I am worried about Divakaran.
He started a lot of ventures after returning from the Gulf.
Nothing worked out in his favour.
He is going through a bad phase.
It must be Divakaran. Turn on the lights.
What brings you here at this hour? - Well.. - Move!
Careful. - Leave me!
Don't tell me what to do!
We found him on our way back from the movie theatre.
He's drunk as a skunk.
We heard that he had a spat with someone about money.
He hit me!
I won't spare him! I will hit him back.
We shall leave. - Okay.
Did he pay you for helping me out? - Cut it out.
What is it?
What is this, Divakaran? Come inside.
Go inside!
I will teach him a.. - Sooryan!
Dad! - Go inside.
Dad, I can't tolerate all this.. - Go inside!
Divakaran, go inside.
Why are you concerned about me?
I am a scoundrel!
Dear, I am.. - Don't!
Keep your advice to yourself!
I won't reform. No, I won't!
My girl is going through an ordeal!
Everything will be all right.
Here it is. - What is wrong with you?
This courtyard is incomplete without a garden.
A few roses, lilies and jasmines will do the trick.
What about hibiscus?
What for? - You can adorn yourself with it.
If you pick a fight with me, I will strip you naked.
Damn! Don't do that!
This is Raji's house. I will do what I like.
But don't shit in the courtyard. - Get lost, man.
Just do your job. Or else, I'll strip you too.
Can you just shut up? - This isn't a library.
Running one's mouth is a basic human right.
Mr. Prasanth Raghuvamsam from Delhi has said that.
The painting has been going on forever.
The construction started when Divakaran was abroad.
In the end, it was your father who made it happen.
I think it's too big.
What are you referring to? - The house.
Then do one thing.
Cut this house in half and take one half with you.
Your work will be reduced. - Yes.
Sooryan! - What?
What is it? - The police arrested Divakaran.
How much money does he owe you?
He borrowed Rs. 25,000 six months ago.
He is slipping away from us without even paying the interest.
We were polite with him.
When we asked him to return just the principal, he objected.
He dared us to take it by force.
What else were we supposed to do? - Enough.
When will you be able to pay them? - Well..
No, sir. We don't trust him.
Someone else should accept the responsibility, or else..
I will pay you back.
Give me two weeks' time.
I will pay your money back with interest on the 16th.
Didn't you hear him? - We trust him.
If anything like this happens again, I will teach you..
Get going.
We apologise for the inconvenience.
Don't take it that way. You could have just called me.
You shouldn't have brought someone like him here.
It's all right. Beggars can't be choosers.
Hey, this village is renowned because of him.
A drunkard like you won't understand his worth.
You are committing a grave sin.
No, please don't say that.
To err is human.
Where is he going with all this?
He borrows money from everyone, picks fights with them
and the police nab him in the end.
Don't we have some honour?
I'm not praising myself.
Have I ever tarnished your or this family's reputation?
I haven't even seen a bar. You may ask her.
Yes, Dad. Sundaran doesn't even know what a bar is.
After yesterday's incident, both of us have been restless.
At last, we reached a decision. - What?
You say it.. - No, you say it..
Come on, just say it.
Raji isn't too old.
We can still find her better marriage alliances.
And about her kids..
We don't have any children.
We will take good care of them. Don't worry about that.
What are you getting at? - Nothing else..
Why don't we get Raji divorced? - What?
Divorce. - Stop it!
He is going through a bad phase in life.
I can't discriminate between him and you.
Is it right to abandon your kin when he makes a mistake?
Is this the solution you devised last night?
Well, when I see you working hard to resolve the issues he creates..
I don't consider it that way.
Even if it is too hard for me, why do you care?
We won't have such conversations again.
Do you understand? - Yes.
Let's go.
Divakaran? - He is inside.
What happened?
Why do you look so sad? - I..
It's nothing.
Don't stay indoors all the time.
Why don't you go outside?
I didn't ask you to stop drinking or smoking.
But you should have a control over it.
You need to have God's blessings
to run a family well.
I'm not blaming you.
She's been living her life in tears for long.
Isn't tomorrow your house-warming?
You should be supervising everything. Don't waste time here.
Sooryan might not be able to manage everything.
You should go there and manage everything.
Let's hope everything happens for the best.
Father-in-law..
Even after hurting you and bringing you disgrace
how can you still love me?
You didn't mean to do it.
It happens because of your bad times.
Things will become fine.
I don't want anyone to be sad.
Everything will be fine.
Geez! Why does this look like a house of mourning?
Where is Mr. Nambeeshan? - Though he's my dad
he needs a good scolding.
Dad! - Coming!
Oh, God! - There he goes!
Where in the world were you? - I think it's diabetes.
I couldn't stop peeing. - This drink will help you. - Here.
Let's get things started.
Come on!
"Once Madan's wife entered the field, everyone was happy."
"When she winked her eyes, it caught the landlord's eyes."
"She had to accept presents from the landlord."
"She couldn't enter the field without accepting the present."
Why did you stop?
Well.. - Sooryan..
I mean, dad got high and started dancing.
When will you celebrate if not today?
"Once Madan's wife entered the field, everyone was happy."
"When she winked her eyes, it caught the landlord's eyes."
"She had to accept presents from the landlord."
Have I ever given you and the kids
anything but sadness, sorrow and misery?
Don't worry yourself over it now.
Even after I drank, gambled and ruined everything
how can you all still love me?
I think of it as my bad times.
Mom!
Oh, no! My nuptial chain!
Where the hell were you.. - Hey!
They're kids. What do they know?
Go and play, dear.
Come..
Don't be sad. I'll get it fixed by the goldsmith tomorrow.
"I am never leaving.."
Saraswati..
I won't give it to you. - Nobody believed me. - I'll give you one.
Ms. Saraswati! - Hey.
Do you have anything cold? - Cold tea.
Would you like one? - Don't be so angry.
Take your hands off me. Don't touch me.
I already have a bad horoscope. Don't get me a bad name.
Move your hand!
I'm being decent because there are women here. - Yeah, right.
I'll shove these down your throat! Yes, I'm coming!
Greetings! - That was close!
Where's Divakaran?
I want to give this to him. - Dear..
Call Divakaran.
He'll come soon. He's gone out.
Why?
To get my nuptial chain fixed. - Now?
Shouldn't he be here?
Go..
You're a lucky man, Divakaran.
You got a great man as your father-in-law.
Break your bad habits and lead a good life.
I've stopped everything, Mr. Vasu. I should find a job.
I'm thinking of returning to the Gulf.
That would be good for you. This place will get you nowhere.
There'll always be people to make you drink.
Keep this. - Oh, please.
You can keep it. - Accept it for my happiness.
Keep it with you!
Hey, am I not invited to your house-warming?
Mr. Vasu, I didn't invite anyone. You know, right?
I was just kidding. Don't worry.
Mr. Harinarayanan has invited me. I'll be there.
Okay then.
I'll be there by noon. - Okay.
Hey, Divakaran.
I heard that you quit drinking and turned into a family man.
Aren't you inviting us to your house-warming?
It was too sudden. I couldn't invite a lot of people.
You guys should come at noon for lunch.
You can enjoy the feast. Where's my money?
I'll return it soon.
When would that be? Do you know how long it's been?
A mongrel who doesn't keep his word!
Okay, give me whatever you have now.
I.. - I see. You do have something!
Give it here! - Let go!
You built a house with people's money.. - Let go!
I said, let go!
Give it to me!
Hey! - Hey!
Hey!
I said stop!
Stop!
I won't let you escape!
Stop!
Dear..
Divakaran! - Dear..
Mother..
Oh, God! - Dear..
Would the post-mortem be over now? - Sooryan had called.
They'll be here soon. - Oh, God! - Okay.
Sooryan is there..
Ask her to stop crying.
She shouldn't cry today.
G.K.
G.K? - Yes?
D-Did you inform everyone? - Yes. - Oh, God!
You should. - Yes.
Don't keep him here too long
after they bring him here.
Oh, God.
Divakaran!
Divakaran.. - No..
No!
- Dear..
Divakaran!
Dear.
Dad!
Divakaran..
Sooryan. - Yes?
Dad..
Saraswati..
Dad..
Oh, God! Divakaran..
We have no one..
Oh, God!
Mom.. - What happened?
Dad?
Sooryan!
Dad.. - Sooryan.
Sooryan.. - Dad.
Oh, God!
Lord. - Dad.
Dad.. - Oh, God..
Dad.. - God.. - Dad!
Hey! Dad!
This is his second attack.
The first attack went unnoticed because he's diabetic.
You need to be careful from now.
Strenuous concerts and journeys should be avoided.
How is he now? - Don't worry. He's under sedation.
Let me buy this medicine. - Don't bother. I'll get it.
Those people are here to meet you.
He is Sooryan, Mr. Harinarayanan's son.
What do you do?
I'm currently unemployed. I tutor a few kids.
And I perform concerts.. - What's the use telling him?
What's the issue? - Forgive me for talking out of turn.
I'd organised your father's concert at a temple last year.
When we got acquainted, he asked me some money as a loan.
It was to be spent on his daughter's house.
Understanding his plight, I approached Joy
and got Rs. 1 lakh as loan for him.
He's promptly paying the interest.
But he didn't pay the principal before the due date.
I'll bring it to my father's notice.
I don't think that will help.
I lend money at such low interest rates.
Now I am in the soup. I'll lose Rs. 1.5 lakhs!
I'll do what I can.
You don't earn a penny. What can you possibly do?
If you don't find some way, things will get ugly.
Sister, isn't the food ready? - Yes.
What did the doctor say?
He said dad can be shifted from the ICU by evening.
She hasn't got up from her bed until now.
She isn't even eating anything.
When will my dad return, Uncle?
He will return, okay?
But you have me, right? - Yes.
Oh, God! I can't take this anymore.
Greetings. - Greetings.
You must be leaving for the hospital. - Yes.
We just visited him.
But we couldn't see him face-to-face.
What did the doctor say? - He said dad is fine.
Doctors try to console us. Take it with a pinch of salt.
I didn't recognise you.
I'm Punnoos Tharakan. He's Dasan.
Our priority is to meet you, and not your dad.
I don't usually give loans without security.
But I couldn't say no to Mr. Harinarayanan.
I gave him Rs. 3 lakhs.
He's repaid Rs. 50,000.
Including the interest, Rs. 2.75 lakhs is yet to be paid.
As you're in such a situation, you need not pay the interest.
But you need to repay the principal amount.
You should take up the responsibility.
You should deal with this stuff even if your dad dies.
You can't escape the responsibility.
When can you repay us? - Well..
We don't want it right now.
But the debts should be settled in a few weeks, okay?
That's that. See you.
Don't panic. You should show some courage.
Your father could've earned millions with his skills.
But he could never put a price tag on music.
That put him in a debt trap.
It's not easy to run a household these days.
And your brother-in-law, Divakaran, had borrowed money
and lost it in businesses after he came back from the Gulf.
It was your father who cleared many of those debts.
I am confused.
Sir, you need to help me out.
I badly need some sort of a job.
If I don't do it now, something terrible might happen.
Don't get disheartened.
I don't think concerts will help me pay back the loans.
Don't worry. All you need is a job.
We will find one. But you shouldn't hurt your dad's feelings.
You should convince your father.
Why did you take this decision all of a sudden?
I could never help you in your struggle
to run this household.
I have always been staying under your wings.
Don't you think I need a job that could help our family?
What did you achieve with music?
A lot of accolades and enormous debts.
Sooryan, watch your tongue.
Many of the people who visited us when he was hospitalised
were money lenders.
They don't care about music.
All they care about is money.
Why did you hide all these liabilities from us?
I was irresponsibly wasting my life
when you were trying to make ends meet.
I wasn't trying to blame you, Dad.
I badly need a job.
Mr. G.K will take care of everything.
Please don't stop me, Dad.
Please bless me.
My God! I'm joining my first job.
Help me out. Don't make me run around in circles.
God.
I lost my bag!
Hey, thief! My bag!
Thief.. He took my bag.
Stop right there.
My bag.. No! Thief!
Oh, no!
How dare you stare me down!
Oh, no! - What did you do?
What did I do? A thief stole my bag.
When he put it around your neck, I just tried.. - Don't you dare!
What! Why did you hug and roll with me?
Nonsense! It's true that I hugged you.
But you rolled the most.
You shouldn't have done it at such a young age.
How the hell did you end up here? - Oh, no!
It's a long story.
I've never had a better opportunity to discuss my problems.
How are you? Do you have properties in Munnar?
Are you flirting in public?
We were discussing a few family matters.
Care to join us? - Shall I? - Get lost!
Dear, life is an asphalt jungle.
Do you object? - Huh? - That's not an answer.
Voice your objection. - Are you insane?
After all that you've done, you're trying to philosophise now.
Can I help you with more philosophy?
Are you leaving? - Get lost, you pretentious douche.
Here.
Excuse me, sir. - Yes? - Can I meet the manager?
Your name? - Sooryanarayanan.
Just a minute. - Okay.
You have a visitor, sir. One Mr. Sooryanarayanan.
Okay. Okay, sir.
You may go in. - Okay.
May I come in, sir? - Yes, come in.
Sooryanarayanan, aren't you? - Yes.
Take a seat.
You aren't punctual, are you?
Well, a thief snatched my bag when I was on my way, sir.
Then I had to chase him. - Why did you chase him?
All my certificates and papers were in that bag, sir.
Sir, please don't ask me tough questions.
In all the commotion, I forgot what I'd learnt.
You have a diploma in music, don't you? - Yes, sir.
But I am ready to do any job.
Then why did you take a diploma in music? - I regret it, sir.
You should never say that.
Not everyone can be a good musician.
You need God's blessing. - Then I retract my comment.
In which Raga is 'Krishna Nee Begane Baro' composed?
'Yamunakalyani'. - Sure? - Sure. - What if I contest it?
I will promptly agree with you. That's the condition I am in.
Don't worry. You are right.
Okay. - Sooryanarayanan, work in the loan section for now.
May God bless you, sir. - Sure.
Do you know why I hired you here?
No. - Because you are an artist.
No one here appreciates art.
I am going insane with all the technical stuff here.
So you will have to spare some of your time for me.
I mean, for music. - I'm ready to sing whenever you want.
Then I want it right now. I want to hear you sing.
But at this hour.. - I don't want a concert.
I just want a simple song, okay? - Sir.
"In the cradle of radiant moonlight.."
"In the cradle of radiant moonlight"
"awoke the little florets of night."
"Awoke the little florets of night.."
"In the cradle of radiant moonlight.."
"The seven burning wicks.."
"The seven burning wicks lit up my mind"
"and gave hope to my praying heart."
"Conch shells sounded.."
"Conch shells sounded and marked the beginning of a new life."
"The time of great joy and festivity is here."
"Stars came down to earth and shone over my life."
"In the cradle of radiant moonlight.."
"A marquee was up and decorations were done."
"Flowers bloomed welcoming the spiritual catharsis."
"A halo was felt.."
"A halo was felt around my ever-loving mother."
"Father played the celestial Veena and showered us with blessings."
"The wait for the ever elusive spring is over."
"In the cradle of radiant moonlight"
"awoke the little florets of night."
"Awoke the little florets of night.."
"In the cradle of radiant moonlight.."
"Mr. Balan.. - Mr. Balan!"
Hello, welcome to 'Ganalayam'.
Hello, is this Maya? - Yes. Who is this?
I am Devassy. - Hello, Mr. Devassy. - Get me a tender coconut.
Thank goodness! I've been trying for so long.
A lot of people are trying to contact us.
What do you do? - I sell tender coconuts.
How is it going? - Not bad.
I like your programme a lot. - Who is it?
It's a radio programme.
Thank you so much. - Is it a radio programme? - Yes.
Hello?
Which song do you want us to play?
Well, I.. - An old song.
Play an old song. - Do you want to dedicate it to someone?
I want to dedicate it to a regular customer of mine, Sooryanarayanan.
He's been waiting for a tender coconut for a while.
Really? Okay then.
Please call us again, Mr. Devassy. - Sure, okay.
Let's listen to this song with Mr. Devassy and Sooryanarayanan.
Doesn't she have a sweet voice?
She's beautiful in person. - Really? - Yes.
Have you met her? - No. - Then how?
Her voice is so sweet. So she must be gorgeous.
Which song do you want? - A coconut is all I want. - Yes.
"I will leave a flower unplucked.." - Don't you want a straw?
Will you charge extra? - It's for free.
Devassy, a tender coconut, please.
Mr. Ashok, we haven't met in a while. Where were you?
I just got back from Gujarat. I'll spend some time here. - Great.
Get out. - What are you doing?
Let go of me. - Come on, sign the papers.
I asked you to sign them!
Stay inside. - You better sign them.
Oh, no!
Did you and your father think you can rip off Mr. Cherian?
Sign it.
I am asking you to sign them. Come on, do it.
No.. - You bastard!
You better do it. - I will. - Do it.
I will sign them!
Take the papers!
You bastard! How dare you beat him up in public!
What's the problem, seth? - They made me sign a document.
You douchebag! Where's the document?
Kaatiparamban, you better let go of them. They are our men.
Oh, what will you do if I don't oblige?
Kaatiparamban, it's easy to start a war. Let them go.
I see. So even an ex-minister is involved in this thuggery.
Yes, this is thuggery.
Seth, you and your father tried to deceive me, didn't you?
You got a stay of execution on my land deal. Who made you do it?
We even paid you to move out. But you ran away with the money.
Tell me, who is playing behind the scenes?
Actually.. - You need not try.
Didn't you get everything signed? - Yes. - Get going.
Make sure that you and your dad never mess with me again. Go!
Kaatiparamban, you better not lay a finger on my men.
I am taking them.
Well, you can take them for now.
But I'll get my hands on them one day.
You can go. - Okay.
Cherian!
Hey.. What are you doing here?
Actually, I am working in a bank here.
Here?
Why didn't you call me then?
I thought you would be in Trivandrum.
When I stepped down as minister
I relocated here with my family.
Actually, the show you just put on scared me to death.
Have you started hooliganism?
To save my skin, buddy!
Come, get in the car. - No, I am on duty now.
To hell with it! Get in the car. - Please.
Let me finish my duty. We'll meet after that.
If you don't keep your word..
You know me well, don't you?
I'll find you no matter where you try to hide.
I don't want an excuse that you couldn't reach me.
Take my card. Okay?
We'll have a blast tonight. Bye. - Bye.
Pardon me. - Shut up, you filthy dog!
Why the hell did you come here from Mumbai!
I lost a property worth crores
because of you and your son!
I used you as a middleman
not because I was scared of Cherian!
Pardon me, sir. - Shucks!
Don't make me lose my temper!
Get out of here!
Dad, I don't understand
why you always lose to that rascal!
All I need is a go-ahead from you
to do away with him once and for all.
No!
I've been there.
That is not smartness.
We should win by making him our scapegoat.
I am talking about Cherian!
Sooryan. - Yes?
The manager is calling you. - Okay.
Hey, come inside.
Why do you look dumbstruck? Come in.
Nothing, sir.
I wanted to introduce her to you.
This is Maya. She works at an FM station. - Hello.
Her voice is familiar
to most of the Keralites.
Haven't you heard of the show, 'Ganalayam'?
Is this the same Maya? - Yes.
I've told her about you and your father.
Still, let me introduce you in person.
He is Sooryanarayanan. - Hello.
I have met him before.
Have you attended his concert? - No.
But I've seen him on the street. - On the street? - Yes.
Is he a beggar? - No..
Sir, on my first day here
didn't I tell you about a thief who snatched my bag?
Was she the one who snatched your bag? - No..
That bag fell around her neck.
Oh, I see! - Yes.
Sooryan, Maya sings really well. - Really?
During our staff get together last time
Maya's song was the main attraction. - Really?
Moreover, we are neighbours. - Oh, really?
Yes! - That's great.
Thank you for introducing me to Maya, sir.
I might need your help, Maya.
Don't misunderstand me.
You'll have to help me get new clients.
I'll try my best.
Shall I leave, sir? - Excuse me. Here's my card.
Thanks.
See you, sir. - See you.
Thanks a lot, sir. - Why?
Keep it with you.
Who are you? - Didn't you recognise me? - No.
Didn't you see me coming? - Oh, was that you?
But still, who are you?
Sooryanarayanan. Is Cherian here?
Sooryanarayanan Cherian is not here.
No.. I am Sooryanarayanan. Is Cherian here?
Oh! You should be clear.
What if he's here? - I want to meet him.
Meet him? All right.
Come with me. - Sure.
Are you so close to him to call him by his name?
My name is Abdulla. You can call me Mr. Abdu.
Have a seat. - Okay. - Hey, have you arrived?
I thought you wouldn't come so late at night.
Alice, look who is here!
He is the one I was telling you about.
This is my wife, Alice.
And she is my only daughter, Maria. - Hello.
Yesterday, you and your family
was the topic of discussion here.
Abdu, during my college days, I used to go to his house
to get a good meal and to listen to good music. - Hey, stop it.
Wasn't I a regular visitor? - Oh, yes..
Shall I get you a cold drink, Sooryan?
A cold drink for him? Don't spoil his voice!
He used to carry an umbrella with him
no matter how good the weather was.
Oh, God! Does he have any illness?
Abdu, it was to take care of his voice.
He was the Yesudas of our college.
Yesudas.. Oh! The ex-MLA of Pandalam. - Stop it, Abdu!
Alice, serve us dinner. - Okay. - Wait a second.
Hey, I am not praising my wife.
But she is a wonderful chef. - Oh! - Stop it.
Come.
Tell me, how is your family?
Fine.
Well, where are you staying?
I'm staying in a lodge near YMCA road.
In a lodge?
Hey, when I am here
how can I let you stay in a lodge?
You should stay here. - No, that's not right.
Only the three of us are staying here. - No.
When you are staying here as a family
it's not right of me to stay here.
Then, you can stay with Abdu in our guest house.
What about my sleep then?
His songs will put you to sleep.
He is a great singer.
I want you to shift to our guest house tomorrow.
Got it?
Sir, this will cost you around Rs. 45,000. Please come.
If you book this bike now
the company and bank will grant you a festival offer.
While the company offers a three-month free service plan
the bank has reduced the loan interest by 1.5 per cent.
Please come, sir.
We have a lucky draw as well.
You can win home appliances
like TV, fridge, washing machine, grinder
and many such things.
So, it will benefit you and your wife as well.
The bank is also offering an exchange loan
to upgrade your ride. - Oh!
What all documents should I bring?
You can bring all the documents that proves your identity.
I mean, the bank statement for the past three months, ID proof
salary certificate, ration card, telephone bill
and the receipt of your last purchase of kerosene.
Kerosene? - That's not mandatory.
Instead, you can bring a passport size photo.
I'll bring these documents to the bank.
Won't my loan be sanctioned?
Sure, sir. Keep my card with you.
If you have any doubt, you can call me. - Okay.
Okay, then. - Thank you. - Thank you. Bye.
Hi, Maya! - What are you doing here?
Can't you see? I'm on the streets for a living.
Who is he?
He is the Sooryanarayanan I told you about.
Oh! - Hello. So, she does speak about me.
Nothing in particular. She has mentioned you once or twice.
She is my friend, Priya. - Hi. - Hello.
Well, Maya, thanks a lot. - For what?
Yesterday, I got a call from the station.
From the police station? - No..
Mr. Radhakrishnan had called from the radio station
to talk about his loan.
He said you had recommended me.
Anyway, thank you.
Thanking alone won't do.
You'll have to treat us. - Oh, sure.
Can you come here for a second? Please..
This is a new model.
The company has an exchange offer.
Why don't you buy one?
Let me settle the loan of this vehicle first.
Then I'll think about it. - No problem.
I expect your help in the future as well.
Sure.
Sooryan! - Just a second.
Okay then, Maya. Thank you.
I'll call you. - You can call me. But no missed calls.
Tell me, Mom.
W-Were you sleeping? - No.
What is the matter, Mom?
Where is father? - He has gone to bed.
I wanted to tell you something.
What is it, Mom?
Actually, we've received a confiscation notice
from the bank.
A confiscation notice? - Yes.
For the construction of Raji's house
your dad had to pawn our property papers at the bank.
We'd already received the notice twice before.
Your dad had thought of arranging the money somehow.
But..
I had to inform you this. Or else..
Don't worry, Mom.
I'll take care of it.
Take care of father. - Okay.
Are you worried for such a silly matter?
Leave it.
Do you know something? When I stepped into politics
that had killed my father
I only had the soiled notes offered to me by Abdu.
I had fainted under the scorching sun.
I had roamed the streets like an orphan.
But I never lost hope.
I had a zest to win back everything.
That's how I built this empire!
I have assets worth crores!
Do you know why?
Society values money the most. Money alone!
Do you know, Abdu?
When I was in college
his mom had served me food several times.
I have also slept in that house.
And now, that house is going to be confiscated.
When we are alive
how can we let our parents onto the streets?
Tell me how much money you need.
And then, give the property papers back to your father.
How can I thank you for this?
Hey, what is this?
You would be feeling that we had pampered you
to hurt you in the end, right?
Why are you saying so, Dad?
Nothing was intentional.
In my fear of losing my family
I didn't think about the debts.
Money has never been my priority in life.
But..
I have a feeling that everything was in vain.
Cherian might be your friend.
He might also be a good man.
But we should never be a burden to anyone.
It will lead to many problems in life.
Nothing bad will happen.
You can trust me, Dad. - Okay.
Hello?
It's me, Sooryan. - I knew it.
It's been a few days since you called.
I had to urgently visit my hometown.
I just returned today.
Why aren't you talking, Maya?
I am listening to you.
Well, I wanted to tell you something in person.
When can I meet you?
Am I in trouble?
Well, can I hear a song?
Excuse me! This is not an FM station.
It's my house. - Oh, really?
So, you won't have the required facilities there, right?
I want to hear your favourite song in your voice.
"Your beloved likes you.."
"The song liked by your beloved"
"is now your favourite rhythm."
"The song liked by your beloved"
"is now your favourite rhythm."
"Wherever you go, my music will follow you."
"My music will always remain in your thoughts."
"It's like the fragrance spread by the flowers."
"The song liked by your beloved"
"is now your favourite rhythm."
"Like the streaks of lightning"
"your music spreads across the sky."
"Like the heavy rainfall"
"you came down rhythmically."
"Will you accompany me"
"to explore the blue skies?"
"Will you accompany me"
"to explore the blue skies?"
"Oh, lovely moon"
"the moment you appeared in the night sky"
"the nature sang a song of love."
"The song liked by your beloved"
"is now your favourite rhythm."
"The song liked by your beloved"
"is now your favourite rhythm."
"Come and whisper in my ears"
"like the soothing breeze."
"When you sing me a lullaby"
"the child in me beams with happiness."
"I wish to see a grassland"
"covered with flowers."
"I wish to see a grassland"
"covered with flowers."
"I wish to see you always."
"I wish to live with you forever."
"I like you more than anything else in the world."
"The song liked by your beloved"
"is now your favourite rhythm."
"The song liked by your beloved"
"is now your favourite rhythm."
"Wherever you go, my music will follow you."
"My music will always remain in your thoughts."
"It's like the fragrance spread by the flowers."
"The song liked by your beloved"
"is now your favourite rhythm."
Hey, get ready fast! - Why?
To seize a vehicle.
To seize a vehicle? Why should I come for that?
Don't you know why? At least show some gratitude!
Did you forget Cherian who helped you pay off your loan
so soon?
What are you trying to say? What's the matter?
We had financed their vehicles.
They haven't paid back a single penny.
They also beat our men who went to seize the vehicles.
I know where we'll find those scoundrels now. Come on!
I am not used to this. - You will get used to it.
Anyway, you are not going to become a singer.
Get ready fast.
Come.
"You moved your anklets.."
Four vodkas! - I'll get it.
Don't you want to drink? - No..
I won't force you. But I'll have a drink.
Hey, there they are.
Keeri, go. - Okay.
What do you want? - Give me the key to your car.
Do you want to get beaten up again?
Hey, you! - Oh, no.. Please leave him!
Sooryan, catch it!
Stab him!
Sooryan, escape! - No, I..
I.. - Hey, take him to the hospital.
You scoundrel! - Sir, I.. - Come on!
And? - That man is still alive.
But CI Kaatiparamban has charged Sooryan
with attempted murder.
He didn't get a bail from the station.
We'll have to acquire a bail directly from the court.
Even if I leave now, I can reach there only by tomorrow morning.
Till then, he'll be in the custody of Kaatiparamban.
What happened?
I am not able to sleep.
Will Sooryan be asleep now?
It's so late at night.
Go to sleep. - Yes.
Sir, it's Mr. Cherian. - Hang up the call!
Are you a goon?
Are you Cherian's henchman?
Come in, sir. Come in.
You took advantage of the situation, didn't you?
Shouldn't I be doing that?
I got to know that he is your new henchman.
It's better to nip it in the bud.
Kaatiparamban, you seem to be possessed by some evil spirit.
That's why you are behaving like this.
But I won't spare you. - Damn you, bastard!
How dare you challenge me here! - Hey, enough!
I'm not here to pick a fight!
I want to take him.
Advocate, give it to him!
Bloody bail! Hey, bring him out!
Abdu, take him.
You'll have to pay for this. Keep it in mind.
Bullshit!
Abdu, who told you to take him along with you?
Is he our goon?
Actually, when Keeri was beaten up
I took him along for company.
But he is not as I'd expected.
I thought he was a saint.
But I realised his strength with his first kick.
Why did you go with them?
Since it was your problem..
No matter what it was, you shouldn't have meddled in it.
You should be careful from now on.
The police will keep an eye on you.
Can I suggest something? - What is it?
Why don't we take him into our gang
and let him take care of your business
instead of working in a bank?
I would be more than happy if Sooryan is interested.
I am ready to do anything for you.
My family and I am indebted to you.
We are going to start the Green Villa project here.
But our problem is that house.
All the houses in this 25 acres of land
were evicted by Mr. Cherian by paying them a huge amount.
But this family is not ready for a compromise.
Who is staying here? - One Mr. Kaimal.
He wants to breathe his last in that house.
I think he'll die at my hands.
Shall we try talking to them?
There's no use talking to them.
We've tried it before.
I'm going to forget that project.
But didn't you say that it's a profitable project? - Yes.
But only if that old man and his family move out of there.
I even offered to pay them double the amount.
But I am sure they won't budge!
What if I do it?
How?
I need an old stamped paper
and some men.
I'll take care of the rest.
Do you want a drink? - No.
Hey, don't worry.
We've sent Keeri Vasu. He'll take care of everything.
Who are you?
Who are you all? - Come here!
Where are you taking me? - Come out!
Come on! - Leave me! - Come!
What do you want? - Come on..
Give me a hand.
Come here! - Come on!
Leave me! - Sign here!
Sign it! - No, I won't! - Sign it!
Just sign it!
Oh, God! What's happening?
Dad! - Dear..
Sign it!
Can't you understand?
Dad! - Do as we say!
Oh, no! - Dad! - What are you doing? - Let go.
Move aside! - Dear..
Let go of him! Move..
Where are you going? - Hey..
Don't step out. Sit down. - Leave me! - Sooryan!
Leave me! - Hey! - Let go of her!
Hey! - Let go!
Leave him! - Move!
Oh, God!
How dare you barge into a house at midnight!
What are you staring at? Get lost!
Get lost, you..
Sooryan. - Yes?
Hey! Maya..
What are you doing here?
What was their problem?
We don't know them.
They were forcing me to sign some documents.
Really?
Who are they? - I don't know.
If you hadn't come, they would've..
What brings you here, Sooryan? - Actually..
I was returning from a friend's house.
That's when I heard a commotion. So I came here.
How do you know each other?
We met at the bank. - We met at the bank.
We met at the bank. - I see.
I shall take your leave now. - Thank you.
He had such great plans!
A 4000-year-old stamped paper, goons.. - Stop it, Abdu!
What's the matter?
There is something I hid from you.
I.. I am in love with a girl.
Maya.
I didn't know she was living in that house.
I see! So, that's the matter.
How could you hide this from us?
I wanted to tell you.. But..
Anyway, I'll solve the issue regarding that house
without harming anyone. - Forget about that.
Well, are you serious about this? - Yes.
But I'm worried about talking to my parents.
How about writing an anonymous letter to his father?
An anonymous letter? For what?
Just for an impact.
I will take care of this matter.
Hereafter, you can sleep listening to good music.
Not only music, she can learn dance as well.
Dance? - Yes.
Haven't you seen Sooryan's friend?
I liked him a lot.
If we dress him like a girl
we can include him in our group! - Shut up!
When he talked about such an alliance
I got interested.
That's why I came here.
I liked your daughter
and your family as well.
Music is the reason for that.
He was interested in this alliance
as Maya was a singer, right?
We are indeed lucky.
Let us not delay this matter.
Let's conduct the marriage soon.
But how can we..
Don't worry about that.
How can we conduct a marriage in such a short notice?
They'll have to inform their relatives
and discuss the same with them.
And then, shouldn't we decide
an auspicious time for the wedding? - Yes.
When can we expect you all at our house?
I don't have many relatives.
My wife's relatives are at Vaikom.
After discussing with them
I'll inform you about our arrival.
Is Vaikom your wife's hometown? - Yes.
I'll be performing a concert there for the festival. - Really?
We've attended your concert once at Vaikom Temple.
So, everyone here is a music enthusiast.
I have an announcement to make.
I'll perform a folk dance on the wedding night.
I won't let anyone sleep.
And I'll help Maya get ready.
Drop me here on the wedding eve. - Shut up!
These are my opinions.
The father and son are always like this.
They are always at opposite poles.
So, I am officially inviting you to my musical concert
that'll be held on the 25th at Vaikom. You should come.
Of course. Food and accommodation will be arranged at my house.
Of course.
Don't look down. Look straight ahead.
Thekkilakaadan.
How's everything, Abdu? - Not bad. - Is Cherian home? - Yes.
She is Cherian's.. - Daughter. - I see.
What's your name? - Maria. - Maria.
Come, let's go inside.
Oh! What brings you here?
It's the Thiruvambady church carnival today.
I thought of paying you a visit while passing this way.
It's been a long time.
How are you doing? - Fine.
Shall I get you something to drink? - No, thanks.
Have a seat, Abdu. - Okay.
Where were you when Mr. Patel from the High Command
came from Delhi yesterday?
There was a secretariat march regarding drinking water.
Oh! I forgot.
Mr. Patel had said something.
If we don't win this election
it'll even affect our party's existence.
I am tired of being in the opposition.
I have something important to discuss with you.
It's nothing..
Hey, come here.
I don't recognise him. - He is my friend, Sooryan.
Greetings. - Oh!
I am an old friend of his father's.
Thekkilakaadan. - I know. Simon Thekkilakaadan. Right?
Have a seat.
These are my sons. - Sunny and Charlie.
What do you do?
He is the one who manages my business these days. - Oh!
That's good.
It's good to have someone trustworthy by your side.
Let's come to the matter now.
I heard that you'll be our party's candidate
from this constituency for the position of the MLA.
Even I heard the same.
If that's the case, you have to decline it for me.
He has been an active member of the party for years.
You must support him this time.
Positions don't interest me.
I'll step aside. But will the party agree with it?
I'll take care of it.
I just need your approval.
Okay, I won't turn you down. I will step aside.
Did you hear him? That's how our relationship is.
His father and I were inseparable.
Even you should share such a relationship.
How will we be benefitted by this deal?
I didn't get you.
We don't want to incur a loss.
That's good. That's how it should be.
Name your price.
Well.. Rs. 5 crores will do for now.
We'll fix the final amount later.
An advance of Rs. 5 crores? - Of course.
He will make that kind of money in two hours once he becomes the MLA.
You are smart! He's a good bargainer.
But let's not bargain anymore.
You'll get the amount by today evening.
Won't that do? - That'll do.
It's imperative that we get back in power.
That's why we have decided to announce the candidature
of ex-minister Cherian Thomas
who is a well liked and active member of this party.
I back that decision!
This decision must be reconsidered.
Yes, we have many other members who've been supporting this party.
Ignoring their efforts
this position is being given to someone based on his family name.
It's difficult to accept that.
His candidature was announced as he had
a scandal-free term of office and has public acceptance.
And not considering his family status.
What do you think about this decision, Cherian?
As a member of this party, I accept the party's decision
to make me a candidate for this election.
Long live Cherian Thomas! - Long live Cherian Thomas!
Lead us from the front and we shall follow!
Long live Cherian Thomas! - Long live Cherian Thomas!
Hey, you!
You were cheating me, weren't you!
Did you really think
that he'd forgive you for killing his father in your quest for power?
Never, Thekkilakaadan! The game has only begun.
I'll uproot your existence!
No! I'll bring you down before that!
I still have the knife
that took your father's life.
Don't force me to wield it!
I'll give you a chance to reform
before you end up six feet under!
It'll only take me seconds to stab you to death!
If I ever see you near him
there won't be anything left of you to cremate!
Thekkilakaadan and his men are trying their best.
But I'm sure that you'll top your previous poll performance.
Why are you silent?
Sooryan's absence is taking a toll on me.
I should have sent someone else to Bangalore.
He should be there to manage everything properly. Right?
Yes, you're right.
Abdu. - Yes?
We should make his wedding a grand ceremony. - Yes!
It shouldn't lack anything.
It was God who brought us together.
Don't worry. I am with you!
Mr. Abdu, how is Cherian? - He is in the operation theatre.
H-His right leg..
Who is behind this?
Tell me! Do you know?
It was..
Thekkilakaadan..
I heard your war cry! I was expecting you!
It's better to settle the scores at the earliest!
Come on! You are mine!
No! No!
Sooryan! No! No!
You took my friend's leg. It's payback time! - Sooryan!
Sooryan!
Come with me! Come!
Come! - Let go! - Sooryan!
Sooryan.
Sooryan! Come!
Get in. Get in!
Dear..
Oh, God! What's all this? Dear..
Why did you file a case, Brother-in-law?
He has severed my father's leg.
He won't be tried in court!
This won't do you any good. - What do you propose then?
I am talking about laws. - To hell with them!
He has acquired a bail from the magistrate himself.
If we act out of anger
that will only affect us adversely!
Should I wait until the trial is over!
No, we won't appear in court. The case will be quashed.
Hey! - What is it? - Move out of my way! - What do you want?
Bloody bitch!
Where have you hidden Sooryan? Tell me!
What do you want? Step back.
She is not well. - Let go! - We haven't hidden anyone!
We've cut all ties with him!
If he is Cherian's goon, we are worse than him.
Sir, he is not here. - Let's go!
If I come to know that you're lying
I'll burn you alive! - No! Let go of him! - Let's go. - Get lost!
I'll come back right after the concert. - Okay.
Come back soon, Grandpa. - Sure.
Nambeeshan? - Yes? - Give him his medicines on time. - Okay.
Take care of the kids. - Okay.
Shall I go? - Okay.
Isn't that Kaimal? - Yes.
I was leaving for the concert. Let's sit inside. - No!
I came here to tell you something.
I am not that desperate to marry off my daughter to a goon!
What? Who are you talking about?
I am talking about your son who is a hooligan!
Kaimal, you must be mistaken.. - Oh, really?
My daughter and I were witnesses
of him butchering someone in the middle of the road!
You won't understand the pain he has caused
to me and my family.
I have a request.
Ask him not to force us to commit suicide.
Oh, God! - Father!
Father! - Sir! - Oh, no!
What is wrong? - Father! - Oh, no!
Oh, God! - Father!
I am all right. I am fine.
Saraswati..
Father..
Oh, God!
He left me..
Father.. - No, don't!
Don't you dare touch him! - Mother..
Don't call me that.
Aren't you happy now that you have killed him?
Was loving you the mistake that we committed?
Mother, I beg you.. - Don't!
I don't want to see you. I don't.. Oh, God!
M-Mother..
Ask him to leave. - Mother.
Mr. Nambeeshan.. - You shouldn't have..
He was hoping to see you until he breathed his last.
But..
He never doubted you even for a second.
He had a wish.
He wanted you to hold on to your gift of music.
He wanted you to take care of your family.
You should keep this in mind for the rest of your life.
"Don't cry out in pain, dear heart."
"Don't cry out in pain."
"Don't stop your wounds from healing."
"Let those memories guide you"
"and wipe away your tears."

"Don't cry out in pain."
"Don't stop your wounds from healing."
"I was like a Veena that found its voice"
"on being caressed by your magical fingers."
"When the going got tough"
"you held me close and sang me a song."
"I'll never let go of those memories."
"You'll always be my guide."
"Don't cry out in pain, dear heart."
"Don't cry out in pain."
"Don't stop your wounds from healing."
"I'll follow in your footsteps"
"and hold your words close to my heart."
"Let me play that Tanpura"
"that was brought to life by your magical touch."
"I'll never let go of those memories."
"You'll always be my guide."
"Don't cry out in pain, dear heart."
"Don't cry out in pain."
"Don't stop your wounds from healing."
"Let those memories guide you"
"and wipe away your tears."
"Don't cry out in pain, dear heart."
"Don't cry out in pain."
"Don't stop your wounds from healing."
What are you doing here?
I-I.. - Enough!
This is not a place for goons!
Get out! - I'll go, but after I meet Maya.
What for? Are you not satisfied with what you've done so far?
I want to talk to Maya. - But I don't want to listen!
I am scared of you. You are a brute.
Loving you was the only mistake of my life.
I am trying to rectify that mistake.
Please don't trouble us with your visits.
You disgust me!
Get lost!
Get lost, you filthy dog!
Sooryan! Sooryan!
We are home.
Grandma.. - Dear..
What did the doctor say? - She is as fit as a fiddle.
Thank God! - Thank God!
We must light a 1,000 lamps in the temple tomorrow. - Okay.
And here is the maroon and green Kanchipuram sari you wanted.
Why did you buy it now? - I want to have some peace.
Why do you look gloomy?
Isn't Kalyani.. - She is fine. I am just tired.
Let me lie down.
Sooryan.. - Y-Yes?
Why are you sitting here? Aren't you going to sleep?
No.
I can't sleep when I think about everything.
I feel disturbed.
The court verdict.. - I'm sure that it will be in your favour.
There are a lot of people praying for you.
I am busy right now. I'll call you back.
I don't know how to thank you. - That's not needed. - Thank you.
Come to Mr. Cherian's house in the evening. - Sure.
See you.
What happened? - We won! God is with us!
Thekkilakaadans didn't appear in court. The case was quashed.
Tell me, what do you need?
You have gone through a lot because of me.
I don't want anything.
I want to live the life my father wished for me. That's all I want.
Yesudas is performing a concert at Thali Siva Temple tomorrow
as a part of the Chembai Music Festival.
I'll be singing with him.
Won't you come? - I want to.
But there is a legislative assembly meeting tomorrow.
I'll surely come to the inauguration of the music hall
built in your father's memory.
Okay. That will do.
What happened?
Nothing. Just some memories.
Come.
The thought of singing with Yesudas
is scaring me.
Why? You have your father's blessings.
Everything will go well.
The thunder is roaring. It might rain soon.
I am scared of thunder. Shall we go tomorrow morning?
Sure. But you needn't come with me. I'll find better artists than you.
Are you planning to dump me? In your dreams!
Aren't you coming? You'll get struck by lightning. - Go on!
See you. - Bye. - See you, kids.
Bye, Uncle. - Bye. - Bye, Uncle. - See you.
It's raining cats and dogs!
I feel like dancing in this rain!
Are you a peacock? - Hey..
I should have brought a bottle of alcohol to fight this cold.
It's late. What will I do now?
Shut up! Or else, I'll forget that you're my father!
Don't make me cuss you.
Why do you need alcohol?
Let's see if you've still got your old zest.
Come on! Hey, take the tambourine. - I am ready!
Are you a horse? Don't rupture your vocal cord!
Hey! - Alcoholic! - Oh, my ears!
"Let's sow the seeds all over the field."
"Only then will we be able to enjoy the harvest."
"Let the women get moving in the field."
"Enjoy it.."
Don't get down!
Let go of me, Mr. Nambeeshan.
Remember us?
Did you really think that we were hiding
scared of you and Cherian
when we didn't appear in court?
It was our father's decision to settle the scores out of court.
Charlie!
Go to him! - Go!
I am ready to expiate my mistake.
Let me go.
If that's the case
then give me back the leg you severed that day.
I.. - Can't you do that, you swine!
Hey! Chop off his limbs!
Go!
Dear..
No! No!
Sooryan! - No!
You shouldn't be alive to play with others' lives.
We want to live!
'Central Jail, Kannur'
Get in the car. You were the one who paved the way for my success.
We can't choose the path we walk on.
We should walk on the path that God has chosen for us.
I am not blaming anyone.
But destroying one's life for others is foolishness.
That's what my life inside the prison taught me.
How can we justify taking someone's life?
There is no pain worse than being surrounded by darkness.
Life must go on. See you.
