'May God, who said'
'that man is made of dust and shall return to dust'
'raise you and give a place by his side on Judgement Day.'
'Let the holy rites you received help you on Judgement Day.'
'Oh, God! The one responsible for life and death.'
'The Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit.'
Amen!
'For dust you are and to dust you will return.'
Father.
Throw in the soil, dear.
Sonu!
What are you doing? Stop it!
Tender coconut!
Wait, man.
Tender coconut! - There's no point in waiting for him.
Go and fetch some milk from the old lady's house.
Okay. - Did you know?
Chandy has returned.
They say he cried looking at Michael's corpse.
Good Lord! Did that rascal come to the funeral?
Yes, and some major incidents occurred.
Michael's son beat him to a pulp with a stick.
They say Chandy's skull is fractured. - Is he dead?
Bad people never die quickly.
They say someone took him to the hospital.
His condition is critical.
How daring of him!
He had the courage to show his face after what he did.
Poor Michael.
Lord! What is he up to?
The trouble he causes! - What is it, Mom?
Go and see for yourself!
Sit.
Where's your mother? - She..
Mom, Mr. Chandy is here. - How dare you?
How does he deserve respect?
Maria..
Ask your stupid father to come here.
She's cleaning rice, Father.
I see.
I knew it when you didn't show up today.
That you'd have taken him to the hospital.
Is the treatment done? Or, will it continue here?
It would be much better since we are here
to apply medicine and nurture him.
He was discharged in the evening.
He came here when I insisted. - Wonderful.
We are his relatives, aren't we?
I didn't know that.
You do now, don't you? - It was the humane thing to do.
You shouldn't have. Ask him to go out right now.
Quiet! - Why should I?
I'll do it if you won't.
He will leave in the morning, Maria. - Not possible.
Where will he go at this time?
I don't care. - Whatever he might be
he came here because I insisted.
He'll sleep in the tea stall's bench.
I'll kill you if you oppose it.
Chandy..
Chandy.
Get up. Don't mind her.
Get up, please.
What will you do in the dark? Come with me.
Why should I be angry towards Maria?
Wasn't it an unholy thing that you did? Never mind.
I'll lose my control if I say more.
I wanted to ask you if I ever saw you again.
There is no need for that now.
God called Michael back.
He drank to death.
How could you do this, Chandy?
Poor Annie.
You cheated her too.
It's her fault. Why did she love someone like you?
Who loved me?
Brute! You don't have a conscience.
Don't you know Annie?
She's roaming the lands because of you.
Don't say that.
You don't like hearing the truth, do you?
Shut up! I'll agree to it only when it's the truth.
I didn't move when Sonu, my nephew, beat me to a pulp.
I didn't cry. I didn't utter a syllable.
There's a reason for it.
But, this.. - I only said what we all know.
Who knows what? Tell me.
Tell me! - Why are you shouting at me?
I've said nothing and you've heard nothing. Okay?
No wonder Maria calls me stupid. I meddled in unnecessary things.
What happened to Annie?
She travels around as a volunteer for a prayer group.
What about her grand mom?
She died.
In short, she has no one.
Two weeks ago, driver Jose's wife
saw Annie at a prayer meeting near Thattamala Church.
"Praise the Lord. - Praise the Lord."
"Praise the Father. - Praise the Father."
"Praise the Lord. - Praise the Lord."
"Oh, merciful, guarding"
"and kind Lord!"
"Oh, merciful, guarding"
"and kind Lord!"
"Take us under your wing"
"for we have no one."
"Shelter us."
"Oh, merciful, guarding"
"and kind Lord!"
"You sacrificed yourself"
"for sinners."
"A just man like you"
"was given a crown of thorns."
"We shall bow down to you"
"and touch your feet."
"We shall bow down to you"
"and touch your feet."
"God Almighty"
"protect us."
"On the doorstep of my humble home"
"which is covered in snow"
"I came one night"
"with a heavy heart."
"Did you know, my Lord"
"the pain in my heart?"
"Did you know, my Lord"
"the pain in my heart?"
"Along with my prayers in tears?"
"Oh, merciful, guarding"
"and kind Lord!"
"Oh, merciful, guarding"
"and kind Lord!"
"Take us under your wing"
"for we have no one."
"Shelter us."
I saw you from upstairs.
The funeral was over by the time I reached from Mysore.
I have to take Sonu after getting his TC from the school tomorrow.
Missing the funeral was a loss.
It was a chance for me to kill Chandy.
I missed it.
I'll get my hands on him one day.
Maruthu..
Is that you, Ms. Saraswathi? - Yes.
Ma'am, did you see Maruthu? - No. I didn't.
Hey, did you see Maruthu?
He went that way with a knife.
Knife?
Maruthu.. - Yes, ma'am?
Where are you? - I'm here, ma'am.
Where? - Right here.
So, is this what the knife was for?
Yes. I work here. What's the matter?
We have new tenants.
They need someone to help them with farming.
I suggested your name.
I have work to do. Even at my uncle's place.
Tell your uncle that you can't make it.
You've to help them until they get used to this place.
I'll try.
Where are they going to cultivate?
Don't you know the six acres of land that has been unused?
They bought it from Mathukutty.
Oh, no! That place? - Why?
Its.. Nothing.
Fool! Are you crazy?
Shouldn't you be careful?
Uncle.. - Yes.
It's gone, Uncle. - What are you looking at? Work!
What happened? - Everything is ruined, Uncle.
Someone else bought Mathukutty's land.
What? - It's true.
Didn't you want to buy it?
Weren't you waiting for its price to come down?
Maruthu. - Uncle?
Are you telling the truth? - Yes, Uncle.
I won't leave it alone. I will do anything for that land.
I won't leave it.
Greetings, ma'am. - Hello.
Ma'am, who did Mathukutty sell that land to?
What do you care, Swami?
You tried to buy it for a low price.
It didn't work out. - That's not the case!
Mathukutty sold it to an honest man.
Ma'am, what about the paperwork? - All done.
Ma'am.
Where are you going? - We decided to send him to school.
We won't have time once we start the work.
Where is Annie? - She has gone to get firewood.
Is it so? - Yes.
I would have accompanied her if I knew that.
We were also in need of them.
That's okay. We can share.
Greetings. - Greetings.
I am Palaniswami.
Are you the one who bought Mathukutty's land?
Yes. - Swami wanted to buy it.
No.. I'd asked him once.
I have three acres of land adjacent to your land.
I thought of buying it and merging them.
How much did you buy it for?
I paid.. - Why do you want to know?
Just curious.
It's not a good plot. - It's all right.
Then, why didn't Mathukutty use it?
That's because his wife was sick and needed treatment.
I didn't know all this.
Ma'am, is there water to cultivate crops in six acres?
Mr. Mathukutty said there's a water source in there.
Is there a spring? Did you see it?
No. Her dad arranged everything.
We got to know about it after the registration.
So, you haven't seen the land yet.
We need to chase them out somehow.
I wanted that land badly.
Mathukutty sold it off without even informing me.
Mathukutty asked for Rs. Three lakhs.
But your offer was Rs. One lakh. - It's not worth Rs. Three lakhs.
Okay, let it be.
At least, he should've told me about the deal.
Why should he do that since it's his land?
Shut up, you dog!
That six acre lies next to my three acres of land.
I thought of planting rubber after joining the two plots.
Who is important to him, them or me?
That.. - What?
Yes. You're important, Uncle. - Yes. Hey! Come fast.
Search for the spring.
I'm doing it, am I not?
It isn't here.
What is the use in you following me?
Search somewhere else.
No, there.. - Yes, there. Go and search.
Uncle..
What's it? - Water..
Water?
Water. - Yes.
Look at this. - There is water here.
Give it.
This is a spring.
Get a stone. - Which stone?
Your father's stone! Get a stone to close this.
Here. - I'll hit you.
Get a big stone.
Put it here. Hey, here. - Okay.
Go and get a bigger stone.
Get that. Cover it up.
Should I cover that side too? - Yes.
How is it? - Great.
Even Mathukutty won't know about the spring here.
Let's see how he'll cultivate here now.
What will they do without water?
The coconut trees aren't yielding back home. - Is it so?
But here, the trees are healthy.
Hey, greetings.. - Greetings.
Maruthu, why didn't you come for work in the morning?
Yes.. But this pot.. My uncle. - What?
I had to give this pot to a man. - Okay.
Moreover, I only told him to go during an auspicious time.
Yes.. It's an auspicious time now.
Yes, right.. Now go and work.
But don't ask for more wages. - Yes.
Humans should help each other. - Okay.
Do you understand? - I understood, Uncle.
I understood everything.
Give the pot to me. I'll give it. - Okay.
How come I am carrying this?
Can't you carry it on your head?
Let me leave. - Okay.
Come. Let's go.
There is a slight slope here, but we can grow plantains, can't we?
Yes.
Are you planning to grow plantains here? - Why?
You can grow tamarind trees here.
Tamarind trees? For what?
I have got this land not to get a profit after 20 years.
But to grow plantains, you'll need water.
There is water here.
Yes, in the shop to have at night.
You won't get water here.
Hey, shut up.
There is a spring somewhere here. - Ma'am, there is no spring here.
There was a spring here, but it has dried up. I know that.
This is a good place to cultivate paddy and coconut.
What is that?
There is water, but it's someone else's land.
They won't give water. - Damn.
There is nothing in this area. There is no water here.
I suggest you sell this land and leave this place.
There is no other option.
We have got Rs. 2,500. - That won't be enough.
Isn't this enough to start constructing a well?
And then? - And then, we can sell my gold.
We already sold everything back there, didn't we?
My dad won't give a single penny anymore.
Your dad is the one responsible for this.
Why did he send us to a desert like this?
What is the use in blabbering about it?
We can live our life only after cultivating something there.
What are you talking about?
We need water for farming, and a well to fetch water.
And to construct a well, we'll need at least Rs. 10,000.
Just..
Let me think it through. Go and get something to eat.
Read out loud, dear. - Yes.
Two multiplied by one is two.
Two multiplied by two is four.
Two multiplied by three is six. - If there is no other way..
What is that? - Nothing.
What is that? - That..
That? - I got tense thinking about it.
So.. Don't shout, he'll hear.
It's alcohol.
We are suffering because of your
drinking and gambling.
Didn't you promise me that you wouldn't do it?
No, that..
No, I am not saying anything.
Darn!
Uncle.. - What's it?
Come down. - What?
Come down.
It's gone, Uncle. Everything is ruined.
What? - They..
Yes. - They are digging a well, Uncle.
He is digging the pit. - Okay.
His wife is carrying the soil. - Okay.
And the girl.. - Yes?
She's helping them. They haven't kept anyone for help.
Didn't they seek help? Why?
Because they are running out of money.
Hey, you fool! Don't you have sense?
You should have told him that you'll work without wages.
Then, how will I even have food? - I'll give you money.
I am supposed to work there, but you'll pay. I don't understand.
Fool! - Tell.
You should help them. Only then can we know their plan
and we can plan accordingly.
That.. - Go and help them. Go!
Tell that you'll work for free.
Our well is at least 15 units deep.
I don't think 15 units would be enough.
In that case, your father will have to dig the rest.
He abuses my father every now and then, Annie.
Here.
Oh, no. - What?
Your dress is covered with mud.
We have water to wash it off.
We'll be in distress if there is no water here.
Why are you suffering so much?
Who told you that I am suffering?
Don't ask for wages at the end. Okay?
I'll do what I like.
Aren't you hungry?
I'll get some porridge.
Please, don't. We'll have it together.
That's a waste of time. I'll be back soon.
Poor girl. She is very considerate.
Why is God being so cruel to her? - What?
What's the matter?
Her parents didn't go anywhere. - Then?
They passed away seven years ago. - Passed away?
Yes. You know that river running near the church? - Yes.
They drowned in it during a rainy season.
There is a waterfall down the lake.
They didn't even get their corpses.
Even I noticed their pain.
Now, I understand why. - Did you reach the water level?
Oh, not yet. We were getting some rest.
Then have some porridge. - Yes.
She came here before I could reach home.
We are troubling you, aren't we?
No, this is nothing. I would have joined if I could.
Hey, give them some water to wash their hands. - Yes.
Here.
It's been ages since I went out of the house.
Things became lively after you came.
Her parents worked like this.
I was the one who served them food.
They won't have. When I call them
they'd ask for a minute and start ploughing again.
They are gone. Everything is gone.
Grandma, stop crying and serve them.
What should I do then?
You don't have to pay me.
We are all humans. It's our duty to help each other.
Those Malayalis
got the six acres for a cheap price.
Do you think I'll spare them? Never.
I thought so.
I went home, went to the junction
and to Muniyamma's house. At last, you're here as I guessed.
What happened? Hey, tell us.
Everything is going according to our will.
I'll let you know in detail.
Let me sit and have something.. - I'll hit you, fool.
Who am I to you?
I wasn't asking for toddy. - Okay.
Shall I talk? - Okay. Come out.
Just like we planned? What happened?
It was funny, I was digging the well
and there were rocks at the bottom.
The kind which can't be moved.
Very good! God is with me.
And what did they do?
They thought a lot
and decided to blow it using explosives.
Don't go there.
The fuse's out, I guess. - Dear, be careful. - Yes.
Oh, no! - Dear!
Is this Maravathoor? - No.
This is Sethumala. - Is it not?
Get in fast.
Is this Maravathoor? Is it?
Why is nobody talking? Did we pass Maravathoor?
I'll inform you once we reach.
You are a Malayali, aren't you? - Yes.
Is it far? - No, it's nearby.
Do you know a Michael who stays there? - No.
He is my brother. - Is it so?
His legs got fractured while blowing rocks.
Was it necessary for him?
What do you mean? - His legs got fractured.
I'll get to know only when I reach there, don't I?
He is bedridden now.
It's Maravathoor, right? - Didn't I tell that I'll inform?
You should tell. Don't forget.
Nuisance.
What..? - Oh, nothing.
You didn't pay Rs. 17.
I am talking to you.
You have sales only because I parked my vehicle here.
I won't entertain this here.
Did I tell you to park the vehicle here?
Lower your voice. - Pay the bill.
I will.. - What?
If you create nuisance.. - What will you do, dog?
Move from here.
Hey! - I'll ruin your shop today.
Leave me.. - Leave me.
Thangappan, don't do this. - You don't know me well.
Leave me. - Thangappan, move.
You want money, don't you?
I'll give you. Leave me.
Yes, this is Maravathoor. - Oh.
Oh, no! - Come fast.
Mister, where does Michael stay?
Do you know where Michael stays? - I didn't understand.
What is he saying?
You want money, don't you? How much do you want?
Tell.. - Mister..
Move.
Hey, get lost.
Where does Michael stay? - Go towards the east and turn north.
Hey, brother! Hey..
Oh, no! Grandma!
Please come fast. - Oh, no.
Grandma! - What..? What is it?
Oh, no. Thief! - Who are you?
Oh, no.. Please, someone help me. - Talk nonsense.. And I'll hit you.
What is it? Annie!
Oh.. Was it you, Chandy?
Hey, who are these characters? And where are you staying?
We stay upstairs, Chandy.
Is it so? - Do you know him, Mary?
He is Michael's brother, ma'am.
Is it so? We got scared.
Haven't you seen humans before?
She was shouting, saying, thief!
Actually, I am the one who got scared.
Where is my brother?
He is lying down. - Is it so?
Yes. - Then come.
Oh! Is that you, Brother?
What was that sound?
Leave that, how's your leg?
Oh, Jesus! What am I seeing? Is the bone fractured?
Which doctor did you consult?
Was it necessary to do all this and break your leg?
This is nothing, Brother. - Who are you to decide that?
We'll go back home and consult a good doctor.
I'll get a vehicle. - Yes, we'll get a vehicle.
You might be tired. First, take a shower
and eat something.
Hey, we'll do it later. You get ready.
My dear brother, please listen to me.
We'll start in the evening. - How does it matter?
Oh, Brother.
Get a soap and a towel for him. - Yes.
Hey, Brother. Let me.. - I am fine now, Brother.
Is anyone of you a doctor? - But the doctor said so.
Which doctor? - He is a famous doctor.
I don't want to hear anything. This is serious.
Hair and nails will grow even if we cut them.
Will legs do that?
Just go and take a bath, Brother. We'll go after that.
Bath, my foot! Okay, give it.
Where do I bathe? - There is a well downstairs.
Or, there is a river that way.
Oh, then I'll bathe in the river. - Okay.
Are we going home? - Of course not.
Let him come after bathing. We'll talk to him.
We can't talk to him now. You know him, don't you?
He'll just take me and go.
Get something for him to eat. - Okay.
Oh, no!
I'm feeling hungry after the bath. Hey, aren't you eating?
He just had porridge. - I see.
An egg? Didn't you prepare chicken?
That..
Brother, the chicken is available only in the market.
Since I'm not well..
What? How can I have this?
I've never had my meals without chicken.
Won't we get them in our neighbourhood?
No, Chandy.
Where did that come from?
They're the ones reared by our neighbour.
Damn. We could've asked them, couldn't we?
They don't sell their chickens.
Why?
Won't the chicken agree to it?
Well, we'll arrange them for dinner, Brother.
Isn't lunch supposed to be for the afternoon?
And shouldn't we leave soon?
For now, have your lunch with what we have.
If I knew this, I would've brought the chicken myself.
Such a fate.
Egg it is.
What brings you here, Mr. Kunjukutty?
Did you close your shop so soon?
My sales are over. That's my state at the moment.
Today was no ordinary day, my dear.
It was chaos.
One glass cupboard. Three aluminium vessels.
Nine glasses.
Everything was destroyed.
I thought that was it.
But, no.
By evening, a bruised driver Thangappan
and his friends came in.
I had to give him Rs. 1,000 as compensation.
What are you talking about, Mr. Kunjukutty?
It seems like the person who came here searching for Michael
was the one who had injured Thangappan
is what the peanut seller had told me this evening.
Is it true? Did anyone come here today?
Yes. He..
Catch me..
I'll catch you, Uncle! - No way!
Your dad couldn't catch me either.
Come on..
That's him. - Is it?
Maybe.
I think it's him.
Try and catch me now..
Hey, boy! Don't chase your uncle.
Uncle! - Let him.
By the way.. - Who else would?
Excuse me, sir. - Yes? - May I have a minute?
What's with the late night rumpus?
Don't bother, Grandma.
That's Michael's older brother.
Today, he beat driver Thangappan in the marketplace.
Oh, God.
What for?
No idea.
The little lad thinks that Chandy is his playmate.
What does he do for a living?
Well, he is a politician.
He takes care of his party.
What party?
The party that's run by K.C. Kora.
Haven't you heard?
The Travancore Congress.
I believe he is their party secretary.
Why do you ask?
We heard that he beat someone up at the marketplace.
No way.
That's probably not him.
Hey, come on.. Mary, serve dinner!
I shall get going then. - Pick me up, Uncle.
He is some sort of a goon.
When I tried to warn him that Thangappan's goons
are planning for revenge and it's best not to wander alone
he said to bring them to him at the earliest
so that they can leave peacefully after getting their revenge.
Do you think he's here to avenge them for Michael?
Yes.
He won't be returning anytime soon.
He's going to be here to help Michael with farming.
Is that so?
Though I had to lend Rs. 1,000 to Thangappan
I admire for what Chandy has done to him.
Thangappan deserves it too!
How unfair is it if one denies to pay his bills?
I better get going.
I'll need to search for a carpenter to fix my bench.
What?
What are you doing there?
Are you staring at men who work out?
Go inside!
Shameless creep!
I wonder where he's from.
He's simply shouting at me, Grandma!
Who?
That monster who wounded driver Thangappan! Chandy!
Is it? Let me have a word..
Wait, why did he shout at you?
There was no reason.
Well, it's okay then.
I'll ask him later.
It's best we ask Michael to get rid of him!
Yes! You're right.
Then again, let him stay here for a day or two.
What are we going to lose?
Why don't you go and feed the chicken?
Get going now.
Now!
Come out now..
Out you go..
Hurry up.
Chandy, shall I come along to show you the place?
If he can guide me, what's the need for you?
I know the route, Mom!
There you go.
There you go..
Oh, God! Look at the size of these chickens!
Even a turkey will come close to its size.
I can't believe I had eggs for lunch
yesterday when these chicken were here all the time!
Come here.
Come.. - Don't you touch my chickens!
Stay out of this, Annie.
Grandma! He's stealing our chickens!
Can't you understand?
Grandma!
My chickens! - Go away!
These are my chickens!
What? Is your chicken tasteless?
Grandma! - Don't make me run.
I'll lose my temper! - Don't show off!
Slow down. - Oh, no!
Can't you understand? My chickens!
What's happening here?
Can't you listen?
Kabaddi..
Here he comes. Get off!
Yes!
Here you go.
Marinate it with chilly and coriander.
Add raw bananas to it too.
Ma'am, here is Rs. 50.
Keep it. Though it was a loss
this was your first business, right? Please take this.
Let's go.
This is his nature.
Just let it go.
Isn't it a Sunday today?
Don't we have to go to church?
Come. Let's go.
Who's there?
I meant you!
Are you deaf?
Who are you? Get out!
What are you staring at?
This is our place.
Get out of my land.
Who are you, idiot?
Idiot? What's that?
You are the idiot.
Am I the idiot here? - That's right.
This is Maruthu, Uncle.
Medicines? What medicines?
Not medicines, but Maruthu.
He comes home for work.
This is my uncle, Maruthu.
Uncle?
My dad's brother.
Really? I thought it was someone else.
You just saved yourself from being beaten up.
It's not nice to speak
rudely to someone you don't know.
Sorry, sir?
I was saying that you are rude.
You deserve a small punishment.
What?
From now on, never speak rudely to anyone.
Is that understood?
Is that understood? Is it?
Go on..
Oh, I almost forgot.
What?
Johnny had conveyed you his regards.
Johnny? - Yes.
Haven't I told you about Johnny who runs a battery
store in Mysore? - Oh, yes.
I used to write about you in my letters.
About what?
That your name is Annie and that you're a nice person.
In return, he had sent his regards to you.
When I write back to him
I'd want you.. - Hey, Mary!
Where are you two off to?
We're going to church. It's a Sunday, isn't it?
Oh, yes. It's a Sunday.
We're coming too.
Ever since I've come from home, I've lost track of days.
Let him walk, Chandy.
He seems so relaxed up there.
Let him relax, Mary. He's my nephew.
Mom's jealous, Uncle.
What for? Since she can't sit on my shoulders?
Yes, Uncle. - Is that so, Mary?
Do you?
This boy needs to be taught a lesson!
Right!
I won't let anyone touch him.
Sure.
Why is she so silent?
Are you dumb?
Oh, God! Look at her stare!
It's terrifying me.
You see, Chandy.
Annie's chickens mean a lot to her.
I've gathered that.
She's upset that I ate her chicken.
You see, Annie.
Your chickens are more valuable to me than you.
There's only one difference.
You rear them and I eat them.
May I reveal another truth to you, child?
I'm no child to anyone.
Were you born out of nowhere?
Don't be so rude, dear.
Let me get this straight.
All the vegetables, birds, fishes
and animals in this entire world
were created for us to feed on.
Then, why don't you grab and devour that street dog? - I will.
I've eaten dogs too.
You see, dear.
Dog meat is the best remedy
for all urine related ailments. Shall I get you some?
Damn!
Hey, Driver!
What's taking you so long? Let's get going!
If you're in a hurry
why don't you travel by foot?
Thangappan! Do you see that man coming?
Who is he?
He's the one who thrashed you.
Is it true? Is that him?
Yes, Thangappan. I had seen him.
Where are you from, you rascal?
What?
Why did you beat me the other day?
Oh, was that you?
I wasn't aware.
However, now I realise that you deserved it.
You see.
We're off to church.
Please don't waste our time.
Son!
Oh, God!
Sonu!
Oh, God! - Oh, God!
Make him stop! - Chandy!
Chandy!
Make him stop, Mary!
Oh, no!
Chandy!
Are you satisfied?
When you're in the mood for revenge
just let me know.
Leave for now.
Go on now.
Get lost!
Yuck!
This is something we usually do in our place after a fight.
To savour on raw eggs and soda.
And then jog for a while.
Helps us stay away from sprains.
Let's go! It's almost time for church.
What time is the mass? - 10 a.m.
Okay. Let's go.
Come along, dear.
Let's go.
Sonu was on his shoulders when he
knocked down three of them.
Also, with one arm!
If they knew who my uncle was
they wouldn't have dared to come near him.
Who is he for real?
He is a big gangster.
He usually beats up people.
Is it? I see.
But your mother says that he's a politician.
Mom, isn't uncle a gangster?
A gangster?
Cut it out, Sonu.
Secretary of the Travancore Congress!
Were you lying to us, Mary?
Oh, no! Not at all, Annie.
Dealing with a party
may require him to become a bit harsh at times.
Other than that.. - That's not true!
Uncle is Kora sir's goon!
Sonu! - Ouch!
So, it's not just fighting. He would've killed people as well.
Dear ma'am..
Mr. Kora who is the party president means a lot to Chandy.
Chandy remains loyal to him and obeys as he says.
Even if it means thrashing someone.
Since Kora hasn't ordered him to kill
Chandy hasn't killed anyone so far.
Kill whom?
Well, Chandy..
We were just chatting.
What are you doing here when you have to cook?
By the way, I'm going to take up some decisions.
That land is filled with rocks.
I don't think there's any use in digging a well there.
Anyway, let's see.
Nothing can stand between me and land.
That's for sure.
An inland letter, please.
What is this, sir?
Give me a minute.
'Respected Kora'
'Michael's leg is not getting better.'
'He'll need to rest for another two months.'
'He used gunpowder to break the rocks'
'and ended up breaking his legs.'
'What can be done now?'
'If we don't tend to the crops'
'his family is sure to starve.'
'So, I'm thinking of staying here for a while.'
'By the way, how are Antappan, Kuttapayi and Moideen doing?'
'It would've been a great help if they could come over.'
'Also, it would be grateful'
'to send us some money for the expenses too.'
'Yours sincerely, Chandy.'
"The hill that ducks can't climb"
"is just a pile of dust."
"The mighty elephant"
"is guarding the top of the hill."
"Oh, feisty rooster"
"don't run away like a mouse."
"A pinch of chilli and an open grill."
"You'll be Chandy's tasty supper."
"The hill that ducks can't climb"
"is just a pile of dust.."
"The mighty elephant"
"is guarding the top of the hill.."
"Come to the hilltop that is still uninhabited."
"Gather all your tools when you come."
"Dear bird that glides in the sky"
"join us in making this hut."
"We come looking for it from the south."
"We're the ones who hope for the rain."
"The time of famine is now long gone."
"The hill that ducks can't climb"
"is just a pile of dust."
"The mighty elephant"
"is guarding the top of the hill."
"Every family and their cattle"
"are very happy."
"I've made offerings to the Gods and the earth."
"Dear nightingale, who sings so soft"
"come join us in tilling this land."
"This land will make us rich"
"if you work hard on it."
"And every evening should be a happy one."
"The hill that ducks can't climb"
"is just a pile of dust.."
"The mighty elephant"
"is guarding the top of the hill.."
"Oh, feisty rooster"
"don't run away like a mouse."
"A pinch of chilli and an open grill."
"You'll be Chandy's tasty supper."
Hey! What are you doing?
Place the timber here instead.
Over here? - Yes.
Is that right? - Yes.
Move aside, Chandy. We'll take care of this.
Now, let's fetch the water.
But in what do we pour the water into?
So, what are these?
It belongs to the neighbours. Shouldn't we ask them first?
What for, Moideen?
Don't we all follow socialism?
So, is there a need to distinguish yours from mine?
Oh, that's right. I didn't think of that.
I'll decide how it should be placed.
Be careful. Watch out for the shards!
She's not here.
Not 'she'! I meant wooden shards.
Get off my legs!
Can't you differentiate between my legs and logs?
Here you go. The pots are ready.
What do you think you're doing?
Did you wake up just now? I see.
Child, girls from good families should get up at 4 a.m.
clean up their house and its premises
should take bath
and must make a cup of coffee for their husbands, if married.
Got it? You will never learn.
Isn't it better that you practice from now on?
So, please go
and make four strong cups of tea for us.
I want to know what you're up to.
We are going to draw water.
You can chip in if you like.
We planted plantain all over the place.
We thought we'd draw water from here.
That is not possible.
What will we do if you dry this well up?
What are you saying? That won't happen, child.
Stop it! - What a cry-baby!
No girl has spoken to him like that.
Not even a man! - No one ever did.
We won't allow it.
Antappan, I noticed something.
Look at her ears. - What's in it? - They look like an elephant's.
It expanded when she became angry.
Chandy, she should have been named 'Elephant.'
The only difference is in the nose.
Elephant.
Grab it..
"Unity is strength" There..
Grandma.. Get up.
What? - Come outside.
What is it? - Come on, Grandma.
Get up. - What is it?
"Anchor your foot and pull the rope."
"Pull the rope and draw the water."
"Anchor your foot and pull the rope."
"Pull the rope and draw the water."
Careful..
Ma'am.
The more water we draw, the more filled the well gets.
These vessels are yours.
There's no wrong in using them, since we are that close.
Isn't that so?
"I don't need Rs. 10 or anything else."
Hold it there.
"I'll be on my way, sir."
Pour some over there. - I already did.
"I don't want Rs. 10 or anything else."
Make it quick, Mary.
"I'll be on my way, sir."
"Rs. 10.." Man, over there. - Okay.
"I'll give you Rs. 10. Step aside, sir."
Over there, dude. Get some water.
Antappan, make it quick. - I'm also coming.
Wait. - Come, if you can. I'm leaving.
Let me pour this too. - Man, me too.. Wait.
Moideen, wait.
We could've cultivated in our land too.
What else do we have except this house of his?
What will we do if someone demands a dowry to marry you?
Who is this someone?
Someone! I don't want such arrangements.
What do you mean? You're turning 20 next year.
Do you know? I don't have much time.
I won't let you die for another 50 years.
Do you get to decide that? - Elephant.
Elephant. - Elephant? Who's that?
He's making fun of me, Grandma.
Ms. Elephant!
Go and see what it is.
Or he'll come in.
I can't. You do it, Grandma.
He'll say something and I won't like it.
Quit whispering and come on out. - Go.
I hate the sight of him. - Darn! What to do? I'll show him..
What is it, Chandy? - Where's your naughty grandchild, the elephant?
What for?
She was furious about us draining the well.
Come here. - What? - Come here, ma'am.
Take a look. Is it dry? Isn't the water level higher?
True! There's more water. - That is not the issue.
I meant that it was for our use.
It's still like it was before. Dive in!
Her well, my foot!
Like we have never seen this before.
Take these in. We need this tomorrow morning.
Look at these, Grandma. The vessels are deformed.
What are these good for now?
So you don't need them? Then throw them even farther.
Darn!
Here.
What is it? - Tender coconut.
Tender coconut? - Yes.
Where? - Here. - This? - Yes.
Oh, no! - You have it.
No, sir. - You first. - Listen.
Won't you drink if I give it?
No. - Have it.
Have it..
Here.
Uncle!
The tender coconut fell down.
Did it fall all cut and ready?
Shut up. Why did you come here?
We can't do anything to them, Uncle. - Why?
They're watering the plants now.
Is that so? - Yes.
What are they going to do then? - Didn't I tell you, Uncle?
They've planted plantains there. - Yes..
Okay, let them water it.
Let the plantains grow. I'll tell you my plan then.
I won't let them off the hook so easily.
Me neither. - Yes.
It tastes good.
This will teach him a lesson.
Oh, no!
Hey, I'm not joking.
If you plan to continue this, I'll leave you.
Please, don't make noise. He'll hear you.
Let him hear it.
I'm going to wake him up.
Mary, don't get me into trouble.
Come on.
Let go of me! You'll never change.
You're planning to make me and my son homeless.
What are you talking about?
I've been working the whole day.
Due to exhaustion.. - Yes, right!
You'll drink when you're exhausted, happy or sad.
You'll drink even when you're bored.
You'll find some or the other reason.
Are you the only one who is exhausted?
What about that man?
He may be a goon, but you're not half as good as him.
For whom is he working hard for?
It might be for you. - Yes.
He is working for me.
What do you care? - Shut up!
I'm fed up. You'll never change.
One.. Two.. Three.
Child, you've always worn a half saree.
Where is it?
Hey, where is it?
Girls should be careful about their attire after a certain age.
Else, men will be provoked.
That provocation leads to rapes and molestations.
I'll tell you about Mr. Kora's daughter Rosy.
She's not 14 yet.
But she won't go out without wearing a half saree.
Listen. I'll give you an advice. Free of cost.
A girl's life is a balancing act.
Once you let go, all is lost.
Be careful. Okay?
Moron!
Good Lord!
Brother!
What happened, Brother? - Chandy!
Come on. - It's nothing.
Come on, make him sit there.
What happened? - You're bleeding! - Oh, no!
It's a splinter. - It looks bad.
My God! How did he fall down?
Grandma, life is a balancing act.
He lost his balance and fell down.
Mary, get his shirt. - Okay. - For what?
We'll consult a doctor. - There's no need.
All we need is some goat's urine. - Yuck!
Just pour it on the wound, and it will work its magic.
Still, it hurts.
Kuttappayi, where's Chandy?
Look for him at his home.
Maybe, he woke up late.
Who? Chandy? - Yes.
He'll wake up when the rooster crows at dawn.
Maybe, the rooster didn't wake up.
Stop teasing that poor guy.
Let him take rest.
Yes, let him rest.
Hey, Mary. - Yes?
Don't tell them about his injury.
Why? What's the matter?
Brother asked me not to. They won't be able to stand such news.
They may be goons
but there's camaraderie between them. - That's true.
Why else would they come to help us when he called them?
Yes.
Hey, what the hell!
Who is it? - It's me, Grandma.
Oh, God! Devasikutty, is that you?
So, you still remember us. - Why would you say that?
It's probably because I don't visit you often.
Who is that idiot?
Come in, dear. Come on.
That guy was dancing in front of our jeep.
Who is he? - He lives upstairs.
For rent? - You can say that.
Oh, you're here! She has grown up.
Is Saramma fine, Devasikutty? - Yes, mom is fine.
Grandma. - Yes. - We're here for hunting.
But we can't go into the wild before nightfall.
We have plenty of time.
So, it's good if you prepare some food for us.
Hey, buddy.
If I hadn't braked, you'd have been crushed.
Don't be so sure. Maybe the same would've happened to your jeep.
He's a bit arrogant. - No.
Nothing of that sort. Hey, what do you want to have?
Whatever you have.
Annie, don't just stand there. Get us glasses and some water.
Pappachan, if you get drunk, I'll leave you in the woods.
I won't get drunk so easily.
There he goes.
Devasikutty, can we kill a man with this gun?
Are you planning to kill someone?
I'm thinking about it.
Will you give me this gun?
Just take it.
Oh, you were here. - What is it?
Do you want something to eat? - If you ask me..
Do you know something? Weren't our fathers good friends?
They had taken a decision back then.
What decision? - That you are mine.
Don't you like me?
Don't you?
Move. I've plenty of work.
Do whatever you want. But answer me first.
Don't you like me?
Whatever it is, I like you very much.
Move away! What the hell are you doing?
Let me go. Grandma! Let go of me.
Hey.. - Grandma! - What is it?
No! Let her go. - Move, you!
Oh, God!
Hey, stop!
What's the problem?
Didn't your mom teach you some manners, buddy?
Move! - Where do you think you're going?
Get lost. Take your cronies along.
You should never come back.
I'll surrender the gun to the police station.
If you have eggs, get me some.
Forget it.
Listen.
A girl's life is like an egg.
It may look really good.
But it's too fragile.
Do you understand?
He aimed the gun at him.
Mr. Chandy dared him to fire.
Really! - Devasikutty pulled the trigger.
Mr. Chandy sprang up instantaneously.
To ten feet high.
And then, he kicked from that height.
The bullet hit the pillar.
And Devasikutty went down with his gun.
So, Mr. Chandy is getting famous.
I heard they even had a sword.
That's right. They used it against him.
He blocked it with his left hand.
It cut his palm. But he continued the fight with that injury.
How is Mr. Chandy?
What do you mean?
We heard he is injured.
Get us something to eat, Mr. Kunjukutty.
This is a walk in the park for him.
Have you heard of Koodaranji church festival?
No, we haven't. - Then you know nothing about him.
It was when Mr. Kora dismissed
T.P. Lonappan from Travancore Congress.
He was hell-bent to avenge the insult he faced.
And Koodaranji church festival was the perfect opportunity.
We were involved in another case then.
We go underground once in a while.
What do you mean by underground?
It's the place under the ground!
Just listen to us!
As Mr. Kora was getting down from the stage after inaugurating
the event, Lonappan's bunch of thugs came to attack him.
Oh! - Screaming battle cries
they came running with all their weapons. What to do?
Mr. Chandy was the only one with Mr. Kora.
Mr. Kora cried out loud.
But Mr. Chandy promised to keep him safe.
No one knows what happened after that.
It was like a sandstorm. That's it.
You know what was left after 10 minutes?
Mr. Chandy? - Bullshit!
Then it must be Mr. Kora. - Nonsense!
It was the clothes the thugs left behind.
They just ran away.
And then there were the abandoned weapons.
We sold these things for Rs. 35,000 as scrap.
How is that? - Mr. Kora donated it to the church.
He can beat these losers with one arm tied behind his back.
As simple as that.
We already know he is an alpha male.
Driver Thangappan never came back.
He makes us Christians proud. - Don't communalise this.
He makes us Malayalis proud.
Chandy, we're leaving.
Be careful.
Who is that?
Oh, it's just you.
Didn't any of your relatives visit you today?
This ointment will heal your wound quicker. - What?
The doctor prescribed this for my
grandma's foot injury. - So?
For the injury on your hand.. - Oh, for my hand?
I don't need it. Use it for your grand mom when needed.
These allopathic medicines don't work on my body.
I used goat's urine and it's healed now.
Why are you so concerned now?
Do this. Cut the other rope I use.
Then, I'll fall again and be injured.
We can use this for that injury.
Now, go and do your chores in the kitchen.
Get lost! Her medicine, my foot!
Chandy's coming.
Did you have breakfast?
Yes. We were just about to leave. - I see.
Is your wound serious?
Not at all. I've seen worse.
You were blocking a sword, right?
Sword? What sword? - You'd blocked the sword that day.
Oh, that? Yes, it's true.
I used goat's urine to heal it.
Why is everyone standing?
It's out of respect for you.
We've never seen someone so fearless before.
What is the need for so much of respect?
It's all right. Sit down.
Tea and snacks are on me today.
Everyone says that you should not leave this place.
Why? - They need someone like you here.
Oh! What am I? Just a worm.
Does an elephant know its power?
Just leave it, Maria.
I came here to help my brother.
Things sort of happened.
I must go back soon.
Mr. Kora would be depressed without me.
I wonder how the party functions now.
Chandy. - Yes?
Why don't we start a committee of your party here?
That's brilliant, Chandy.
Are there enough people here?
You just have to be our president.
That can't be decided so fast.
Mr. Kora decides everything about the party.
That's true. Chandy, why don't we inform him then?
We should, shouldn't we?
We can't forget our party, can we? - No more discussions.
We'll begin the activities. Consider this our first meeting.
Hail Travancore Congress!
Hail K.C. Kora!
Hail Kuttikkal Chandy!
Hail O.C. Antappan.. - Who is it?
It's me. - You..
The soil is very good.
It would've been better if there was water here.
Why don't we try digging here once more?
Wait. The crops will suffer
if we go for a well now.
We'll start once the harvest is done.
That's true. - You won't find water here.
Kuttappayi, ask that imbecile to shut up.
He always comes in between good things.
Stupid! - Shouldn't I speak the truth?
Shut up! Those who oppose Chandy never make it alive.
Do you know?
Chandy, why is he here as an unpaid help?
Maruthu, get lost!
Try earning some cash by working.
Don't say that.
We're all humans. Shouldn't we help each other?
He's saying it since day one.
Like he was taught to say it.
Why is the food early today?
It's not lunch but a temporary relief.
Tapioca and chicken.
Great! - Awesome!
Come on, guys. - We'll continue after food.
Serve it.
Give me some..
I'll.. Give that glutton some.
Go..
Now I'll reveal an interesting fact.
Okay. - This girl Annie, who loves her chickens like her life
killed three of her chickens to make this curry.
Really? What happened to her?
She prepared this.
I knew you didn't make it when I started tasting it.
It's delicious.
She's good, Mary.
How about I marry her?
I can have such good chicken curry every day.
Marry her, Chandy. There's no room for doubt.
We will get good chicken too.
We support you. Marry her.
"Why the shyness in your eyes, young girl?"
"Why?"
"Why did you dance to the cuckoo's song?"
"Why?"
"We know everything."

"Why?"
"We know everything."
"We're eager to publicise it."
Chandy..
Why are you shouting? Half our plants are gone, Chandy.
What do you mean?
We found them uprooted this morning.
Good Lord! Mary!
Brother! Our plants have been uprooted.
Let's go and take a look. Come!
There! Look!
What happened? - Weren't you here at night?
This is common here.
It's the boars' work.
What? - He's saying the boars did it.
Yes. - Dear God!
You didn't even consider our hard work, did you?
God!
Get lost, dog!
Didn't I ask you to uproot them all?
You did half the work!
Don't the three of them sleep there?
I heard a noise while uprooting. I ran away.
Did your father make that noise?
Idiot! A man needs to be brave.
Uproot all the plants tonight.
I'll give you Rs. 100.
If you don't.. - If I don't?
I'll kill you! Go!
I just.. - Go!
I'll kill the boar today.
Will this be enough?
Of course. This will be enough. - That's good.
If we kill it, we'll slaughter it, cook it and eat it with Chandy.
Quiet! The noise will startle the boar. - Okay.
Look.. The boar!
Hey.. Is it really a boar?
Come. - We've hit the target.
Come. - Go and catch it.
Run!
Seemed like a man's groan.
No, it wasn't. - I'm sure it got shot.
Look, Antappan.
I'm sure we hit it.
It seemed like a man's groan.
I can differentiate between the two.
This is a boar.
Where did it go? - Oh, no!
God! God! Oh, no! Help me!
Uncle! Uncle! - What is it?
Uncle.. - What? - I'm going to die, Uncle. - What?
What? - They shot me when I was uprooting the plants. - Oh, God!
It's bleeding, Uncle. - Where?
Help me! They're after me. - What?
After you? - Yes.
Don't stay here - Oh, no. - I'll be in danger. I'll get shot too. Go!
Go! - Help me, Uncle!
Go! Go!
Oh, no!
It seemed like a man's groan.
We can't be so sure.
Who benefits from all this?
But man and boar doesn't sound alike, do they?
I'm sure it was a man, Chandy.
We won't be sleeping for a while. We have to live here, don't we?
We saw some footprints.
Must be a high-class boar.
One wearing slippers.
Come.
Muniyamma.
You can do that later. Come on in.
Someone will see it. - Who is going to see?
Come. - Oh, no!
Come!
Come.
Sit.
Drink. - No, thanks.
Won't you drink what I give you?
Have it.
Uncle!
- Damn!
Oh, no!
Uncle.
Bloody imbecile! Dimwit! Get lost!
I'll kill you. Go!
Didn't I ask you not to come here?
I can't sit or stand.
It feels as if I have two bullets in my butt.
I'll die, Uncle.
That is much better.
Don't say such things, Uncle. I'm like this because of you.
Our secret will go public if I go to a hospital.
Do you know something?
I spent last night in a tiger's cave.
Thank God the tiger wasn't there.
I survived.
I have excruciating pain on one side
and hunger on the other.
Hey! You shouldn't be here.
I'll be in danger too. Go away!
Where to, Uncle? - To the graveyard!
Uncle!
Okay. Skip town!
What? - Here! Take it.
Oh, no! - Don't come to me again.
God! Where will I go?
I'll kill you. Go!
Go and sleep with Muniyamma, leaving me to rot.
Take this medicine for five days.
You shouldn't skip it, okay?
Okay.
Dear, a man is crying behind our house. - Who is it?
I don't know. Take a look.
Who are you? What happened?
I'm the nephew of Palaniswami Gounder.
I have bullets in my butt.
I can't bear the pain.
Help me somehow.
Bullets? How?
I accidentally sat on a gun. - How?
I'll explain later.
First, take them out. - How can I do it?
Go to a hospital, man.
It needs to be removed surgically.
I can't do that.
Take a knife and just take them out.
Take this.
Where? Let me see.
The place near ours. - Yes?
I saw its owner yesterday.
The owner is one Mr. Vadivelu.
Whatever!
He told me there are no boars in this place.
Didn't Maruthu say the opposite?
Vadivelu told so. - Where is Maruthu, by the way?
It's been a few days since we saw him.
He must've been fed up since he wasn't paid. - Yes.
Are our fertilisers here?
The lorry departed yesterday.
It'll take another 30 minutes.
We'll go and take a leak in the meantime.
Okay.
Those khaki shorts remind me of someone.
Isn't that Maruthu? - Is it?
What happened to him?
Maruthu.
Wait! You!
Wait! - Why's he running? - Stop, you!
Take that rug off!
I'll do it. - Do it.
Was it you? - Why did you run?
I didn't see you. - You did.
Why did you run away from us?
You did something wrong, didn't you?
No. - What's this?
Moideen! It's the same groan! - Yes.
From the night we shot the boar! - Yes.
Grab him.. - Bloody mongrel!
Rascal! Thief! - How dare you?
Thief! You uprooted our plants! - How dare you?
He is the one who uprooted our plants.
I'll kill you.
He was sent by his uncle, Palaniswami
to sabotage our farm.
They closed the spring in this land.
And now, they uprooted our plants.
Bloody cheat!
You were cheating us, weren't you?
So, was there a spring here?
Yes, Chandy. - I'll show it, sir. Please don't kill me.
I always doubted him.
Where's the spring? - That.. I.. - Tell us!
It's over there, sir.
Moideen. - Yes?
We have some work in the meantime.
Come with me. - What is it?
We'll explain it later, Chandy. Come.
Stop, you!
Stop! - Stop!
Stop, you! - We'll break your other leg.
Stop right there! - Stop!
How on earth did you go down this slope?
Wait.. - Stop!
Come no further! Don't come near me.
Don't! - What?
No more. - We will.
Come no further..
Bloody creep! - Kill him. - How dare you? - Loser!
Oh, no! - Bloody mongrel!
How dare you ruin our farm?
What a con! Rascals!
All this water was here and.. Bloody rascal!
Chandy! Did you find it?
Come fast!
We have more than enough!
Look! - Water! - Go at it!
Antappan!
Wait! Stop!
It hurts! It's unbearable!
Is that you, Palaniswami?
No. I'm someone else.
No. It's Palaniswami.
Was it you? I thought you were someone else.
God! What happened?
Did you fall down somewhere? - What?
Yes.. I did.
How?
On my way
you know.. A cow..
Okay. - A bull.
It came at me. It kicked me. - So sad!
I fell down. Shall I go?
God! - Which bull was it?
How do I know?
Are cattle given name tags?
I meant the owner of the bull.
Why does that matter to you?
Leave me alone.
Oh, God.
By the way..
Yes?
I've got something to ask you.
What's the matter?
I'm not sure about it.
However, it has been a talk among the neighbours.
Only you'd know if it's genuine or not.
This is not my concern
but the others have been asking.
Does the two of them share one wife?
What?
Chandy and Michael
are brothers, aren't they? - Yes.
And Mary, the green-eyed lady. - Yes.
Does she have two husbands?
It seems like Chandy and Mary
were seen together doing something inappropriate.
Someone had witnessed it.
Why do you rent your house to scoundrels like him?
Get him to leave!
Get rid of him!
Else, you'll be the next victim.
See you.
Does it hurt, Uncle?
Am I not your uncle?
Why did you rat on me?
Why did you do this to me?
Look at me. Look at me carefully.
They beat me to a pulp.
Forgive me, Uncle.
Chandy told me
that he'd kill me if I didn't tell the truth.
They whacked me right on the wound, Uncle.
Even so, you shouldn't have caved.
What's the use in saying it now?
What happened was meant to be.
I made a mistake. While you were suffering
I abandoned you.
God punished me for that.
Forgive me.
Don't say that, Uncle.
I'll die for you.
Forgive me.
Okay.. It was fate.
We should be decent from now on. - Okay, Uncle.
But I won't leave Chandy alone.
If I don't annihilate him
I'll change my name. - It's impossible, Uncle.
Shut up, you dog!
Were you here all this time?
The sun's up already. Don't we have to get to work?
The thing is.. - Yes?
I'm having really bad body pains.
I'll have to take an oil bath.
I'll be there by noon.
Okay..
It's best to treat the pain right away.
Hey, Mary.
What happened, Chandy?
Michael is not keeping well.
Get ready. Let's leave.
Let's go. - Okay.
What's the problem?
Well, my body is aching badly.
Is that it, or do you have other plans?
See, this is the problem.
It's when you often doubt me like this
I get prompted to drink and gamble with friends.
Yes, right.
Otherwise, you won't drink at all, do you?
All right. I'm done doubting you.
If that'll change anything.
We're leaving, Michael.
Hurry up! - I'm coming.
Things aren't going to get
any better if Michael goes on like this.
He's been a lot lazier ever since you've been here. - I see.
What's that on your arms? - Oh, it's probably dust.
Why would Maruthu lie?
He was working in the fields one day and while he had gone
into the forest to urinate
he had seen Chandy and Mary together.
This is why Michael has turned into an alcoholic.
Do you know?
He is upset.
But Chandy is a tough guy.
He's a killer.
We must get rid of people like him from our village.
I better go and supervise the field workers.
Oh, God!
How's the game going, Thomas?
All these games have ended up
ruining your name, Michael. Hasn't it?
What are you talking about? - Aren't you aware?
How'll I know unless you tell me? - How can we?
What's going on?
Be it your elder or younger brother
things like this just can't be tolerated.
What's brewing up between your wife and your brother?
Brewing up?
Well, people have been talking these days.
About what?
That your wife is secretly
romancing with your brother.
What did you say?
I'll cut off your tongue
if you dare speak rubbish like this again.
Say it! Say it once more!
I'll break your bones!
You pig!
There is a mail for O.C. Antappan.
Antappan, there's a letter for you.
Here you go.
Who's it from?
There's no return address.
I reckon it's Tommy from the handwriting.
You're right. It's from Tommy.
What does it say?
Let me open it. - Okay.
'To my dearest Antappan, Kuttappayi and Moideen'
'this is Tommy writing.'
'Please don't worry.' - What?
'and it's best to keep this away from Chandy.'
'Mr. Kora is critically ill, Antappan.'
'The day before yesterday, there was a meeting at Thachambalam.'
'Mr. Kora had given a speech for straight five hours.'
'He started feeling uneasy'
'while returning from the meeting.'
'Having felt that he might pass out'
'he requested us to take him to the hospital.'
'Mr. Kora is now in the ICU.'
'Chandy may get restless upon hearing this.'
'He may leave everything behind and come.'
'Hence, Kora says it's best not to let Chandy now.'
'Let's hope that Mr. Kora recovers soon.'
'Hoping that you'll include him in your prayers.'
'Yours sincerely, Tommy.'
Oh, God! What could've happened to Mr. Kora?
Let's leave at the earliest, Antappan.
How's that possible? Don't we have to inform Chandy?
No way.
Tommy is right. Chandy would break down.
Everything will get messed up here.
This is something unavoidable. Let's get going. Come on..
Hey, where are you all off to?
Moideen's sister Suhura received a marriage proposal.
Is that so? That's wonderful.
However, has she come of age?
Yes. She is over 18.
She doesn't look like she is.
By the way, isn't it only a proposal?
Only Moideen needs to be there, right?
We can all go together for her wedding for a couple of days.
Well, when Moideen said he'd be travelling
I thought, in that case, I might just pay my mother a visit.
I didn't want to stay here alone since they'll be gone.
You guys are right.
In that case, I'll tag along too.
It's been a while since I've met Mr. Kora.
Well, it won't be right.
Michael already doesn't pay attention to the crops.
If you don't stay here
all our hard work would've been for nothing.
This is not fair!
How can I survive here without you guys?
It's only a matter of a few days, Chandy. We'll be back soon.
All right. However, this was completely unfair.
One more thing.
Not more than two days!
Is that clear?
The temple festival is coming up.
We all are going to enjoy!
Okay? Well, get going then.
Get going! - Chandy!
Have you become a kid all of a sudden?
Hey! Antappan! Hey!
Stop crying unnecessarily.
You'll be back in two days, right?
Get going. You'll miss the bus.
Get going.
Quit wasting time and leave!
I'll see you then.
You are Annie, right? - Yes.
I don't recognise you.
Well, that's just sad.
I recognised you, didn't I?
I don't recollect seeing you anywhere.
I'm seeing you for the first time too.
So, how did I recognise you?
Where's your grand mom?
Johnny!
That's great.
Got to know each other already?
Well, she's quite shocked. - Why?
What can she do if some stranger comes asking if she's Annie?
Without first introducing yourself?
He didn't, Mary.
How can you blame her then?
Let me do the honours.
This is my brother, Johnny.
Brother, are coming directly from Mysore?
Yes.. It was dusty all the way.
I'll need to take a shower.
Of course.
Get changed.
We'll talk later then.
Michael, I think we're short on chicken.
Shall I go and get some more?
Now? No need, Brother. It'll be enough.
Well, wouldn't Johnny be tired after a long journey?
It would be a shame if he'd ask for more
and we don't have enough.
Can you come for a while?
Was that to me?
No. Johnny is asking for you, Michael.
He has something to say.
Is it a secret?
No, nothing like that.
That's quite a lot of money, Johnny!
Johnny arranged it with dad's help.
What for? - How long can they stay in a rented house?
Don't they need a house of their own?
That's right.
There's Rs. 50,000 in there.
Half of this money belongs to Johnny.
Is it?
It looks like your bakery is running smoothly.
Not so great. Then again, we do make a profit.
They were struggling here due to a shortage of cash.
You came here with the money at the right time.
Brother says he needs to leave by tomorrow morning.
Why's that?
We've a temple festival coming up after a couple of days.
You shall return once it's over.
There's nobody to supervise my staff in the bakery.
That's why. - Oh, then you better leave.
We can't rely on the workers these days.
How's the chicken curry coming up?
Oh, no!
I can't believe this.
Get the money from him.
Here you go.

Mr. Kunjukutty! See what happened.
Your friend is a cheat. Both are missing.
Who is missing? - Chandy and Michael's wife Mary.
They eloped from the festival.
What is happening, ma'am?
I don't know anything, Kunjukutty.
While returning with Sonu, we searched for Mary
but she wasn't there. I thought she might be home with Michael.
Early in the morning, Sonu started crying for his mother.
That's when we enquired and found that Chandy is missing too.
No, I can't believe this.
When I said the truth, nobody believed me.
Ask Annie.
Didn't I tell you before? Yes.
Where is Michael? - How will he even face people?
We tried calling him a lot. - Yes.
No, Chandy will never do this.
Then is that you? - Shut up!
What is the use of shouting at me?
Kunjukutty, do you know something?
It's been quite a while since they started this.
I have witnessed it.
Even Maruthu has witnessed it.
Likewise, many knew about it.
I don't have any doubt.
Mary eloped with Chandy. And that is the whole truth.
Annie.
Stop there.
Annie, stop there.
I wanted to ask you something.
That's why I came to the church
and now here too.
Chandy is a cheat, a rascal, a reprobate
but how did I cheat you?
Mr. Kunjukutty told that I cheated you.
When was that? How? From where?
I never told that you cheated me.
Please don't disturb. Just leave. - Annie.
I searched a lot for you.
I was sad that I couldn't meet you
during Michael's funeral.
Where is she?
Where is that rogue who left her husband and kid for you?
Johnny!
Johnny. - Tell me.
You are a good man.
You loved your sister a lot.
You loved her family.
If you kill me, you'll be arrested.
That shouldn't happen.
I am happy to be in jail.
Johnny. Johnny, listen to me.
Johnny, no. Johnny.
Johnny, no.
Johnny, listen to me.
Leave me.
Johnny, I asked you to leave me.
Hey!
Chandy, no.
I'll never blame you for beating me.
Even my brother's son Sonu has beaten me.
But it was my heart which got hurt when he did that.
I'll not blame you.
Anyone would do the same, in your situation.
Nobody will believe me and I don't want anyone to believe me.
But, you have to know the truth.
"You smell of turmeric.." - Mr. Kora is dead.
Is it so? When did it happen? - Today morning.
Just now, someone came and informed me.
I can't take it, Mary.
I am leaving as soon as possible. Where is my brother?
He was right here.. - You tell him about this.
I need to be there before dawn.
Okay. - I am leaving.
"Like a magnificent peacock."
"Like a magnificent.."
I was depressed regarding Mr. Kora's death.
People left after the funeral.
I was sleeping in the party office.
Hey, Brother.
Why are you here at this time?
Hey!
Brother. - Hey, what is it?
Hey, what happened?
Hey, I'm asking you. What happened?
Why did you come here at night?
Is everything all right with your son?
Or is it something regarding the farm?
I am useless, Brother.
I don't deserve your love.
I am really bad.
Hey, talk clearly.
God punished me for all my sins.
I never valued my loved ones.
I never listened to them.
That's why God punished me.
Hey, what are you talking about?
What is it? What.. What happened? Tell me.
That's impossible. Go.
Hey, get lost.
That's impossible. - Stop this..
Thoma, continue.
Yes, put the cards.
That's what even I said. Put the cards.
Hey, for me too.
We'll not play on credit. - How can you say that?
You have looted me..
Put the cards. - No, I won't.
Won't you? - No.
Hey, we didn't loot you. It's because you lost the game.
Instead of shouting unnecessarily, leave the place.
Hey, I don't want anybody's sympathy.
Before dawn, I'll pay you back.
In that case, leave now and come back in the morning. Go.
I won't let anyone play without me, you pig!
Get lost, you dog! Don't create trouble.
I'll hit you.. - Leave me.
Hey! - Hit him.
I won't let anyone play.
Move. - Leave.
Michael.. What are you doing? - Hey, leave me.
Leave me.
They looted me, and now they are not letting me play.
Get lost. - Come. God will never forgive you, dog!
Let it be.. - Go and file a case against us. - Come on.
Hey! - Michael!
This is usual for Michael. Don't try to teach me.
You! I don't care about money! - No!
I'll show you! Come.
Mary, you leave. I'll come.
They cheated me. - Come with me.
Why are you doing this nonsense? Why don't you understand?
What are you talking about?
I won't leave them, my money.. - It's good that you lost it.
Did anyone force you to drink and gamble?
If you play drunk, you'll lose.
You are right. Money won't stay for long with us.
But I shouldn't have lost the money we saved for the house.
What? - I can't take it.
What? What did you say?
What did you say?
Oh, God!
Money won't stay for long. That's life.
But there is one thing.
You shouldn't say anything to brother Chandy.
I'll tell him. I can't take this anymore.
Chandy left the place because of Mr. Kora's death.
We'll take a decision as soon as he is back.
Is Mr. Kora dead? When did Chandy leave?
Don't talk to me.
That was the result of Johnny's hard work.
My father gave Rs. 25,000 more
along with the money for construction.
They are rich, so they gave money.
Why do you have to account it?
Johnny gave money for his sister.
Your father gave money to you.
He didn't give it to me, did he? - Is it so?
Is that what you were thinking? - Yes.
If so, you don't have any right on that money.
I took my wife's money.
I don't have to enquire about the source.
Don't you want to know? - No.
Don't you? - No.
Won't you enquire when your wife earns from an unknown source?
Hey, what did you mean?
Do you think that I am not bothered about it?
How many ways can you earn? Tell me!
Tell me. Speak out, you moron.
Mary!
Mary..
Mary. Mary!
But the rumour which spread is different.
Nobody knows that you are here because of Mr. Kora's death.
Mary and you eloped. That's what they are saying.
It's hard even to face Sonu. How will I tell him this?
Brother, only you are there for my son.
Please educate him. Take him to a good position.
I'll confess to the police.
Now they should decide
whether I did it intentionally or by mistake.
Mary was dead, and he was about to get arrested.
I didn't know what to do.
You don't have to confess or tell anything to anyone.
Dead people won't come back if you do so.
It was something which was not supposed to happen.
We just have your son left.
You need to take care of his future.
I can never replace you.
Let what they rumoured about me be right.
Mary isn't dead. She eloped with Chandy.
Nobody will know anything until they get her corpse.
I'll hide somewhere.
You are the only one I am left with.
I won't let anything bad happen to you.
Brother. - It's okay, my dear.
Don't be sad, dear.
It was very difficult to convince him.
But I never knew that he was ruining himself, Johnny.
I was roaming around like a thief.
I shouldn't come across anyone whom I knew, right?
Till now, you thought that your mom was bad, isn't?
No, she was innocent. She was truthful and sincere.
Please forgive me, Johnny.
These are my only assets.
Wherever I went, I wrote him letters.
These were his replies for them.
Everything is said clearly in this.
You should read it, dear.
And please don't hate me.
I never knew that you loved me. You shouldn't have.
I never cheated you knowingly.
If you think so, please forgive me.
I am leaving.
See you, Mr. Kunjukutty. - Okay.
Uncle!
