You should walk the rest of the way
as there is no road to drive through.
That is the school.
Are you Ms. Archana Devi? - Yes.
Please come quickly. The board members are waiting for you.
Greetings!
Are you Ms. Archana Devi? - Yes.
I'm sorry I am late.
I didn't know that the taxi
wouldn't be able to bring me all the way to the school.
I had to walk a long way after the taxi dropped me.
Oh! You took that road!
If you would've taken the road through Aruvikkara
the taxi would've dropped you at the school gate.
Please take your seat. - You just had to walk a little.
You would have to pay Rs. 15 more if you'd taken the other route.
She is our headmistress. - Greetings.
Could you tell me why you are keen on working here after completing
Masters in Arts and Masters in Education?
Why didn't you try at a college?
I don't think that I am capable enough to teach at a college.
I also feel that I would be more content teaching small children.
That's a fact!
I was born and brought up in a city.
I've always dreamt of living and working in a village.
Do you have any prior experience working in a school?
I'd mentioned that I haven't worked
anywhere before in my application.
I do not have any prior experience as a teacher.
Desire and dedication are the two most important qualifications.
You'll gain experience and learn as you teach.
If that's the case, I don't have anything more to ask.
Why aren't you asking any questions, sir?
If we appoint people who are highly qualified
they will leave the job when they get better offers.
I will not leave.
Are you sure? - Yes. I'm sure.
I didn't introduce myself.
This is my school.
I figured that.
If we appoint you here, will you travel from home every day
or are you open to staying somewhere nearby?
If there are suitable places to stay here
I'm open to relocating.
That would be better.
But do you have someone who can accompany you?
I can ask someone from home to accompany me.
That solves the problem.
What do you say, Ms. Deviamma?
As there was not enough teachers to finish the portions last term
we must finish portions of three terms in the upcoming two terms.
I'll try and do my best
with complete dedication.
You are appointed.
This school requires more teachers
who have a similar mentality to serve people.
I have a house that is vacant.
You can stay there.
Mr. Gangadharan Pillai! - Yes, sir.
Please clean the house behind the library.
Ms. Archana will stay there.
Please come.
Is everything ready, Mr. Gangadharan Pillai? - Yes, sir.
Please come.
The house is not all that great.
This is the living room. That's the kitchen.
The bathroom is on the other side.
This is the bedroom.
That is the prayer room.
If you need anything else.. - This is good enough.
They will help you
until someone is able to join you from home. - Okay.
I'll leave, then. - Okay.

Why did you leave without informing any of us, my dear?
We were really worried until we got your telegram.
The professor was extremely upset.
He was relieved only after he got the telegram.
What you said is right, Mr. Nanu.
But if I would've waited to inform everybody and then come
it wouldn't have happened.
All of you would've followed me.
Your willpower, my dear girl!
My willpower, isn't it?
I'm not going back.

We'll continue tomorrow.
Why aren't you leaving?
It's time for the veneration, ma'am.
Let's go.
I've been waiting for so long!
I'll go to the temple and come, Mr. Nanu.
I won't be late.
Today is Monday. It's an auspicious day.
Can I ask you something, my dear?
What is it, Mr. Nanu?
Did you just simply visit the temple
or is there some fast you are taking?
Why would I fast?
The Monday fast!
I noticed that you hadn't eaten anything today.
That's why I thought so.
That's because I wasn't hungry.
I thought you might've taken the Monday fast
when you went to the temple.
I was extremely happy.
What for?
Do you need me to explain, my dear?
What happened, ma'am? Are you unwell?
Why are you late?
I didn't get the bus on time.
The manager is coming. I'll go, ma'am.
Hello. - Hello.
Why are you standing here alone?
It looks like our manager is going to break
his principles of Gandhism and renunciation.
I'm sure it will happen.
Will she be the one to rule over us then?
What do we do then?
Bear with it. What else?
What has to happen will happen!
Why would she work here
after clearing her Master's in Education?
I knew something was wrong when she came for the interview.
She must've done something bad back in the city.
The manager seems to have fallen prey to her trap!
I don't think anything can rescue him from it now!

Teacher..
Teacher, I've noticed that while you teach children
through songs and otherwise, especially today, I sense
something is troubling you from deep within.
What is it? Tell me.
I really care for the people who work
in my institution.
If there is anything that worries you
you can always tell me.
I'm all right, sir.
It's just that I get lost in the emotion
of the words when I read good poetry.
Can I believe what you said? - Of course, you can.
I'm one of the happiest people on the planet
ever since I reached this village.
If so, I'm happy about it.
It's dusk. I should get going.
I shall accompany you.
Thank you, sir. But you need not take the trouble.
These are sleeping pills.
These are tablets to stay awake.
These.. - Now I find
it hard to fall asleep despite taking sleeping pills.
Then why do you take them?
Just for some relief.
You won't listen to anyone.
You are so adamant! - Mr. Nanu!
Shall I take your leave? - Yes.
Lie down.
That's a ladies seat, mister.
Maybe she's a woman. - You're right.
She doesn't have any long hair and is wearing trousers.
He's a retro model. Look at his attire.
Tell him to get up.
Hey, watch it. Don't trouble the passengers.
Poor guy, I think he's deaf.
Hey, mister. You're sitting in a ladies seat.
Didn't you hear us? Get up.
Let a lady come. I'll give up the seat.
He isn't deaf after all. - Nor is he blind.
Why is that you can't see the 'Ladies only' sign?
Do you have a problem with me sitting here? - No.
So, it was pre-planned.
Yes, it was. Do you have a problem with that?
Nothing at all. - No.
Are you leaving already?
Are you leaving as I'm sitting here?
No, I have to get down at the next stop.
Move aside. - Make way..
Don't push me. - Move aside.
Anyone doubting my masculinity can come forward.
Why're you late? - Oh, Bharathi. Do you know what happened today?
What is it?
There was a thug on the bus. - A thug? - A thug?
Did a thug follow you?
Haven't I warned you not to travel alone by bus?
Let me finish, Mom.
You don't have to say anything. I want to hear anything.
Nobody bothers to listen to me, do they?
Your dad is the one responsible for this.
You never pay any heed to what I say, do you?
Ask your elder daughter what happened.
Has Archana returned from college?
Thank God nothing happened to her. - What're you talking about?
She had to confront a thug on the bus today.
A goon on a bus? - Yes.
Can't a thug get on a bus?
Oh! - What do you mean?
Hey, what are you doing behind my back?
He followed you today, didn't he?
He'll stalk you the moment you get out of this house tomorrow.
No such thing happened, Mom. - What does that mean?
It just means that nothing happened at all.
That's it. Isn't it, Dad?
Look at him laughing!
You don't care for my words here.
But you expect me to take responsibility
if any problem arises.
The girls don't want to travel in our old car.
Neither will you buy a new one.
You'll realise it only when thugs trouble them
while travelling in the bus.
Hey, I don't want you to go to college
until he buys a new car. - I'll travel in the old one.
It may be an old one but it'll never break down.
Exactly.
I get it.
Hello.
Has Mani achieved the first rank?
Good. Very good.
What? A party?
One second.
The call is for you. It's about a party.
It's out of my jurisdiction.
Hello!
What is it?
You haven't phoned me in a while.
What happened?
Did he achieve the first rank? Congratulations!
The party should be grand.
That's not possible..
Oh, yes. I'll definitely come.
Thank you.
Hello. - Hello, Mrs. Chandrashekar.
Hasn't the professor come? - He was about to leave.
But he came down with something all of a sudden.
Please come in.
Hello, Mani. Congratulations. - Thank you, ma'am.
Mani, congratulations. You must always come first.
Instead of opting for BA and MA
you must opt the best stream that suits you.
Even the smart students fail
as they are not able to find the right stream.
You're absolutely right.
The present educational system also accounts for it.
Mani wouldn't have that problem.
Mani has his father to guide him through the right path.
I'm not worried about his education or future.
His tutor decides everything for him.
A proficient man.
Hello, Mr. Sukumaran. I was just talking about you.
You are here even before I finished.
Why are you late? - Better late than never.
Hey, what're you doing?
You've got a lot of presents.
What are they? Let me check them.
Bharathi.
The thug. - What?
The thug in the bus I told you about.
Are you serious? - Yes.
Excuse me.
Why do I feel that I've seen you before?
Me? - Yes.
You must have seen somebody else.
I'm sorry.
It doesn't matter whether he's a private tutor
or a school master.
You can't find anybody to do it unless they are paid.
So, don't trust him much.
The boy is yours, isn't he? You must take care of it.
Mom, quiet down.
He is the thug sister was talking about.
Thug?
Mrs. Chandrashekar, you haven't met Sukumaran yet.
He is Mani's tutor.
She's retired principal Prof. Chandrashekar's wife.
Greetings.
We'll make him an IAS officer.
I'll leave now. - Are you leaving so soon?
Mani may have achieved the first rank
but you're the reason behind it.
I know the trouble you had to go through to teach him.
We're all happy that Mani has achieved the first rank.
But, to organise a function for that sake
does nothing but divert his mind.
It's not just that.
If you tell him that he'd be able to achieve the first rank
only if he is tutored
any talent he has will degenerate.
Mani, you must read these books during the vacation.
See you.
What a speech by the thug!
He's not a goon but a lecturer, Mom.
Thugs are a lot better than the lecturers these days.
What're you saying? - Bullshit.
Will you stop questioning me?
I think you should go to the office room
before you go upstairs. It's hilarious there.
What are we supposed to deduct from the increasing number of roads?
What? - When the price of petrol and diesel rises
in accordance with the increasing number of roads
the number of cycle rickshaws will increase.
With thousands of kilometres of roads being laid now
the demand for cycle rickshaws will definitely rise.
That is, if we calculate
10 rickshaws for every 100 kilometres..
100.. 10..
Just wait. I'll bring my file.
Have you opened the cycle manufacturing factory?
Please sit down..
That's all right. Time is critical for you.
I thought I'd leave after inquiring about the factory.
We haven't been able to come to a decision yet.
That's very good. - Why's that?
If you'd come to a decision
your discussions, geography, calculations and fights
would have come to a sudden stop. - You're right.. - Yes.
You've must have come to waste our time.
Haven't I told you not to disturb us while working?
Leave now.
The noise you make for a silly cycle rickshaw.
I can't imagine the situation
if you're planning on building an aeroplane.
Hey, Raju. Please stop wiping your face.
Your skin may peel off. - You're right. It may peel off.
I came here to thank you.
It's me who should be thanking you. Please have a seat.
Even though our nation became independent many years ago
our village is in a condition
even worse than before.
The only thing we have here is my L.P school.
We don't have a proper road for the students.
Many of them have to cross the river to come to school.
Attending classes in the rainy season is difficult for them.
But the village is so beautiful.
We can't just live with beauty.
Our school should be upgraded to a high school.
Then, to a college.
I want to try my best
for the progress of this village.
When you came to this L.P school after completing your M.A
I thought you would help me with my mission.
Would you help me? - Yes, sir.
This village is my home.
What you said was right, dear!
We shouldn't have used the car in this heavy rain.
Can you please be quiet now?
For you, she is always right. What about us?
It's not going to start.
What can we do now? - We should push the car.
Ravi? - What can he do?
Open the window! Bloody car!
Porter!
There is no one here.
This is not a railway station. This is the main road.
Mom! The thug is coming.
Don't look that way.
Did the car break down?
Isn't it starting?
We should push the car. There is no other way.
We need two porters.
I can do the work of two porters.
What about these two in the car?
Come outside.
Yes, I got it. - What?
Did you forget your wallet? - Which wallet?
Uncle. - Why did you bring this thing?
You told me that you're having body pain.
Throw it away. I don't want anything.
Bloody car! It was my bad luck
that I was in that car..
Who told you to push the car in that heavy rain?
Just go away from here!
It's not me. It's Raju.
He is clearly not feeling well. Same as you are now.
The blame is all on your dad.
Considering the strain you took for the development
of cycle rickshaw factory, there is no problem
even if you take two weeks of rest.
Are you teasing me? I understood!
We should think through before starting a business.
Mr. Sukumaran is here.
Mr. Sukumaran? Who is he?
He is the one who is responsible for your illness.
Oh, that guy!
I have forgotten many of my students.
But I won't forget you, Mr. Sukumaran.
I've been noticing your progress.
You might have never known about it.
I know it, sir.
I know I was always in your heart.
You recommended me for my research scholarship
and the lecturer post.
I read the note that you had written in my application.
I must thank you for all that you've done.
It's okay. You deserve it, Sukumaran.
Thank you, sir.
Dear. Do you know Sukumaran?
He is one of my most favourite students.
Greetings. - Greetings.
When he completed his degree with the first rank
I advised him to try for IAS.
Do you know what he said?
He said he wanted to be a professor like me.
He wants to counsel and reform the youth who are following
the wrong paths of life.
That's his aim.
The purity in his ideals attracted me the most.
Is everyone fine after getting drenched in the rain?
You are the one who got drenched the most. - Yes, right.
If you hadn't come here, I would've come there
to meet you with Archana.
Had I had known this, I would not have come here.
I missed an opportunity to receive you at my house.
I'll bring some tea. - Maybe another day.
If you don't have a cup of tea right now
she might get upset.
Will you get upset, sir? - No.
Okay, then. I'm leaving.
Okay.
Archana, tell our driver to drop Sukumaran.
No, sir. I usually travel by bus.
That is what I prefer. - As you wish.
Archana, accompany him to the gate.
Okay. - Bye, sir.
Are you planning to go to the moon?
No, but very close to it.
We should find a guy like Sukumaran for Archana.
I know you would say that.
You are so into him.
He doesn't have parents or a home.
He is short-tempered as well.
Do I need to mention about his salary?
He looks exactly like a hippy. A real thug!
Do you want your daughter to marry him?
How can you even think of something like this?
He was my student for four years.
I know him very well.
The things you couldn't understand in four years, I've understood
in one day.
I won't allow my daughter to marry a man who interferes
in other's matters without even asking.
That's what makes him different from others.
I raised my children with the salary I got as a teacher.
You don't know how I've suffered to raise the children.
I won't allow her to suffer like me.
She is beautiful and educated.
She will get a better guy from a reputed family.
Do you want her
to live her life just like a maid?
There is no hurry.
Raju likes her very much. Don't you know that?
Raju? - Yes. Raju!
You can't find a better guy than him.
He has money. His family is well reputed.
He is smart and talkative.
Do you know anyone who is as obedient as him?
It's difficult. - Then, what?
He doesn't have a personality. He is dumb.
Stop! You and your bloody personality!
'Birds of the same feather flock together'.
Then? - Nothing.
Please, tell me. - Mom is coming!
Close your eyes.
Just as I thought. Can't you even switch the lights off?
Look at her mattress!
Their father used to blame me
for interfering in their matters.
You are always crying about your neck pain.
Then, why can't you put the pillow properly?
Here's another one.
Tell me, Sister. - He invited me to his house.
You accepted his invitation, didn't you?
I shouldn't be doing that, should I?
Tell me what you told him. - I accepted the invitation.
Sister. - Go to sleep.
Sister.
If you go to his place, you're done for.
He's a thug and a lecturer.
A good combination.
Poor Raju.
He has wiped his face so much that his bones are visible.
You're stone-hearted. - You're a dumb girl.
Please come.
Where's your aunt? - I'll call her.
Aunt.. - What is it, dear?
Come here, Aunt.
Greetings.
Do you know who she is?
You are Archana, aren't you? - How did you recognise me?
I may not have seen you, but I could guess it.
He always talks about you.
I've never heard him talk about any other women.
Why haven't you seated her yet?
Please be seated. I'll serve coffee.
Alli, boil some water for coffee.
Where's Shankaran?
Shankaran.. - I'm coming.
Hey, are the bananas ripe? - Yes, they are.
This is my kingdom.
Where would you like to sit, your Majesty?
I shall sit on this throne.
Hey, watch out. It's broken.
The throne must have broken as the monarchy has ended.
That's all right. I can stand and rule.
Hasn't Archana returned? - No.
Brother has given her too much freedom.
Why are you standing here? - You don't know why, do you?
Don't make a fool out of me.
Where had you been until now?
Do you know how worried your mother was?
Weren't you worried? - How can I not be?
Everybody in this house is going to be hurt
for a mistake one is going to commit.
Mistake?
Dear. - Father.
Had you been to Sukumaran's house? - Yes, Dad.
Nobody in this house is happy with him.
Nobody has tried to understand him.
Even you?
Sukumaran was my student. Naturally, I'd support him.
Forget it.
Has your conscience accepted him?
Yes.
Then, you shall have my blessings.
Your mom will oppose it.
Everyone in this house will oppose it.
But Nanu Nair may not.
There's one thing you should remember.
You are the one who chose Sukumaran
with your own consent
for your sake alone.
Come, dear.
Step inside with your right foot.
Come in, dear.
Dear. - Yes?
This is Sukumaran's mother.
Dear.
Before Sukumaran's mother died
she entrusted this note and bangles to me
to give it to her future daughter-in-law.
Read it out, dear.
'Dear.'
'If I'm not lucky enough to witness your wedding'
'you must consider these words as my blessing.'
'These bangles are my gift for your first baby.'
'You must wear them on the baby's arm.'
'With love, your mother-in-law.'
What is it, Archana?
Why do I feel like I've seen you before?
Me? - Yes.
You must've seen somebody else.
I'm sorry.
Do we need that too? - Yes.
I'm going to take it with me wherever I go.
It must be for protection, isn't it?
You could say that. - Very good.
We're going out for the first time after our wedding, aren't we?
You might need it if I do anything, won't you?
That's not it.
I want your mother's blessing wherever we go.
Dear, have you packed the tiffin carrier?
I'll pack whatever is needed.
You can continue with your veneration.
Ever since I heard that you were leaving
I'm not able to concentrate on my prayers.
You talk as if we're going on a pilgrimage.
We'll be back in a week at the most.
"I remember each and every moment."
"The joyful occasion of songs and love."
"The lyrics of the song blend into a dream."
"The sculptor of love."
"The royal sculptor."
"The sculptor of the heavens."
"I remember each and every moment."
"The joyful occasion of songs and love."
"In you, I flow like the river Ganga."
"With you, I'll reincarnate as Lord Shiva."
"Like Lord Shiva and Goddess Parvati."
"We will live together as one."
"Like Lord Shiva and Goddess Parvati."
"We will live together as one."
"I remember each and every moment."
"The joyful occasion of songs and love."
"We've been waiting for ages to hold our hands together."
"For lives, we've been travelling together."
"How will we be parted?"
"We have already dissolved in each other."
"How will we be parted?"
"We have already dissolved in each other."
"I remember each and every moment."
"The joyful occasion of songs and love."
We bought this from Eranjal.
It's original silk. We can get this only from there.
All this must have cost a lot of money.
This is for dad. Hey, where is the book?
Come. Let's go and see dad.
You go. I need to talk to Sukumaran for a second.
When Bharathi returns from college, she will be excited.
Dad!
Oh, dear! When did you come?
Where is Sukumaran?
He is with mom.
Oh, God save the king.
Here. I've bought it for you.
This is a present for you from Sukumaran.
'The Cultural Heritage of India.' Good.
But
Do you know what the best present I got was?
Your smile.
Why don't you open the cover?
Are you fine, dear? - Yes.
That's what I want to hear.
For you, when you go to the temple.
That's what I said.
What's the use of wasting your money by buying these presents?
Don't let her waste too much money.
My salary might be low but we've to spend for our needs.
Don't talk like that. You should make a budget list
for each month. You should spend within that limit.
It's better to say this to Archana.
Normally, a mother thinks that her responsibility is over
after her daughter's wedding. But I'm not like that.
Why are you saying this now?
I was advising Sukumaran about making a budget list
before spending money.
I'm a little busy right now. I'll see you later.
I pick you when I return.
Oh, I forgot to tell you one thing!
I don't know whether your aunt approves of this
but we have decided to let her continue her studies.
She won't disapprove if Archana wants to pursue her studies.
You don't know how to talk to someone.
Why didn't you ask him to wait until dinner?
Oh, I forgot!
Anyway, he will be back.
Why are you looking upset?
You could've told him about all these later.
About what?
Mom was insisting.
We could've stayed there for a day.
I feel more aware of our affection
when we stay in this small room.
Enough! I don't want to hear your philosophy.
You won't even talk to others.
I'll act the same way when we go to your friends' house.
Your mom wanted you to marry a rich man.
She might be disappointed.. - My God!
What made you think like that right now?
Aunt told me something.
You were planning to marry the most beautiful girl in town.
Yes, I married the most beautiful girl in town.
Enough! - I dare you
that all my friends will be jealous on seeing you.
You can't bribe me with this! - What did you say?
You're unaware of his temper.
If he finds that the plate is not clean enough
he won't have anything that day.
I always wonder how he manages college students.
Dear.
Mr. Nanu!
What is it, Mr. Nanu? Why did you come here?
What were you doing right now?
I was checking whether there were any stones in the rice?
Very good!
How do you do, Mr. Nanu Nair? - I'm very happy
that a girl like her who spent most of the time
by listening music and reading books
is doing kitchen work like a real woman.
Actually, there is no need for her to help. We have a servant.
Anyway, it's good! A woman should be aware
of the matters regarding her house.
Only then would she become a real woman.
You didn't tell me why you came.
Your mom has given me a letter for you.
Is everyone fine? - Yes, of course!
My uncle and aunt are coming from the United States.
She asked me to come over. - Of course, you can go.
Tell her that I'll come. - Okay.
Where is Sukumaran? - He is in the shower.
I wished to see him but I'm a little busy.
What about a cup of tea? - No, thanks!
I can have it anytime.
They have asked me to return as soon as possible.
Next time, you should prepare dinner for me. Okay?
But don't make fun of my cooking.
I won't, even if you don't add a pinch of salt or chilli.
Okay, I'm leaving.
Ma'am, here is the key. You forgot it again.
I'm having lapses of memory nowadays.
You can keep the key with you.
Me? - Yes.
Sukumaran's mother gave me this key.
I've kept it with me all this while.
Now, I can't. - That's not possible.
You should keep it with you.
Archana?
Oh, God! I'm coming.
How long have I been waiting? - Why did you call me?
It's time to go to college. I need to dress.
Can't you do it by yourself? - No, I can't!
Here.
Make it fast.
One second. The button came off. I will sew it.
Don't pierce my chest.
But I'd be hurt if I did that, wouldn't I?
I'm the one in your heart, am I not?
What was the discussion about?
What else do we have to discuss?
We were discussing about the man of the house.
Did my aunt say anything? - Yes.
She told me that you're a snob. - Why did she say that?
What wrong with that? It's true, isn't it?
Even I know that.
Do you think of me as a snob, too?
Have you ever listened to what I say?
What have I not listened?
When will you return? - I'll be back by 7:00 p.m.
7:00 p.m. This is what's wrong with you.
Tell me what the matter is. - What time do your classes end?
Whatever time you say.
This is what being a snob is all about.
Okay. 5:00 p.m.
Okay? - Okay. 5:00 p.m.
Read this letter now.
Is that all? You can go.
Do you want me to go alone?
I won't be able to bear it
if they try to advise or mock me.
It wouldn't be appropriate. - You don't have to bear it.
Hey, it's past 7:00 p.m.
Archana and her husband haven't arrived yet.
What am I going to tell the others? - There'll be here soon.
She has no freedom in that house.
His aunt won't let her do anything she likes.
She needs somebody to do the household chores, doesn't she?
That old woman makes our daughter do all the chores.
If she sends our daughter here
she wouldn't have anybody to do the work, would she?
What are you getting furious for? - What do you mean?
You may feel nothing as you're the one
who threw her at them.
My niece was married and was taken to America.
But our daughter is working in the kitchen.
Have you come? We've been waiting for a while now.
He's my brother-in-law and she's my sister.
Sukumaran is very busy.
He has to take up the role of the principal too.
That's why he's late.
I couldn't attend the wedding as I was in America.
I had planned a world tour for the vacation.
But she insisted on meeting Archana's husband.
Archana is the eldest one in our family.
We couldn't attend the wedding. Good thing we met now.
He's staying away from jobs with responsibilities
as he wants to complete his PG.
Would anybody do that?
That's how a man with a goal is supposed to be.
Anyway, I'm so happy.
Archana is lucky to get a boy like you.
You must visit us in the US on your way to England.
You can bring her along too.
I'd be proud to introduce you to my friends there.
And you'd have a nice time.
He agreed to move to England as I insisted upon it.
Oxford University has been requesting him for a while now.
Excuse me.
I have to visit the library before it closes.
Didn't I tell you?
All he is thinks about is his PG.
He has no time for anything else.
There isn't any book in the library that he hasn't read.
He left for the library as new books must've arrived.
You're really lucky to have found a son-in-law like him.
Why else would I select him?
He's my selection.
You know my mom's behaviour.
But why does she have to humiliate me before others?
I won't let her do that to me again.
I'll never step foot in that house. - What has happened now?
Did I ever force you to marry me
or request your mom to let you marry me?
What has happened to be so furious about?
She was just saying her wish out loud.
It isn't something that's impossible, is it?
She wasn't just shouting it out loud
but trying to cover up for my inadequacies.
If I had known about this earlier.. - If you had known earlier?
Your aunt was right. - What did she say?
That you aren't the same when furious. - That may be true.
Where are you going?
It's very hot here. I need some fresh air.
"Oh, festive season. Fill my heart with music."
"The spring season is not enough. Kindly gift us more flowers."
"On your way here, visit our holy temples."
"If you meet King Mahabali, join him for the Onam festival."
It's not just the lecturers in the school
or the residents of this village.
Even our own students may make stories up.
I know that you're hurt.
I have a question.
Why don't we take this challenge up?
I've never thought about a woman until now.
To marry and become a parent is quite natural.
Anybody can do it.
If you don't have any objection
we can live and work together.
Hey, why are they breaking our wall?
They're installing a telephone.
Where? - Why don't you ask her about it?
Why can't you be clear?
What is it, Son? Aren't you well?
Have you ever seen me unwell?
Where are they installing the telephone, dear?
In our house.
So, he has begun to think about the house now.
No, ma'am.
My mother arranged for this from my home.
That's a good thing.
I can talk to your mom whenever I feel like now.
She wouldn't have to come running every now and then.
Listen up.
Sukumaran doesn't seem to be the same for the past few days.
What's wrong with him? - Nothing.
He doesn't talk to anybody if he's furious about anything.
He isn't talking much these days.
Even your aunt's asking me now.
Do you want everybody to know that you're angry?
Why should I do that? Who am I angry at?
Why? Who?
My mom may have said something.
It's been days now.
Do you still have to be furious about it?
Who told you that I'm furious? - Then?
Can't you hear anything?
Yes, I can. - She's trying to humiliate me.
Now, I understand.
You could've told mom
if you don't like to have a telephone here.
She is doing it for you. Why should I obstruct it?
Then, why are you so upset with me?
Your mom is trying to harm my dignity.
But you are not realising that.
That's what hurts me the most.
Who told you that I'm not realising it?
Is my mom hurting your prestige by installing a telephone?
Are you telling me that my parents should stay away from me?
Are they nothing to me?
Your mom is coming, ma'am.
For God's sake, don't show your anger on mom.
Where is Archana?
She might be in the kitchen.
Yes, she is coming.
I came here to check whether the telephone connection is okay.
Why did you come here?
Is this your drawing room?
I've told you many times
to keep these things in the kitchen.
It has not been ages since you left home.
Have you forgotten how to maintain orderliness?
Shankaran? - Why are you calling him?
We should take all this from here. - No!
Let it be here.
Please, don't create a scene.
What would aunt think if you talk like this?
Just keep quiet! You and your aunt!
Where should we place the telephone?
No, mom. Just leave the matter.
What do you mean?
I'm going to suffer for what you're doing right now.
I can live without a telephone.
Why did you lie to uncle and aunt that he is going to be
the vice principal and is going to England for TCS exam?
To maintain my prestige!
Tell me. Do you want me to tell them that he is a beggar?
Mom! - Don't try to teach me.
Your husband doesn't have a high income.
You should remember that.
Sukumaran, I didn't see you.
Well, I was a bit harsh that day.
I know that you're upset. - Who wouldn't get upset?
You keep quiet. I was not talking to you.
I was talking to Sukumaran.
For me, you are just like my son.
I'm saying this for your betterment.
There is no need to be upset.
You should take care of family matters properly.
I'm getting old. - Where is my pen? - Here.
Are you going outside? - Yes.
Friday is a holiday. So, there won't be any classes.
It's Ravi's birthday on Friday.
You should come with Archana.
You can tell that to my aunt.
Stop!
How long can you hide it from me?
Do you want me to believe that you are fine here?
Mom, please listen to me.
I will find a way for my happiness.
Please, don't be angry.
I don't want you to come here all the time.
Am I doing any harm to you?
Do I need to answer that?
I can't even make him understand me.
I can't make you believe me either.
Don't misunderstand me.
Okay. Then, listen. Your.. - No!
Don't say anything.
Don't think that I would beg his aunt
for letting you and him come to my house.
Let me see whether he comes with you or not.
I'll tell the worker where to install the telephone.
Hello?
Oh, it's you!
It's Bharathi. - Okay.
Where is he? Is he asleep?
Yes, he is asleep.
Why didn't you sleep?
I'm having a cold. I'm not feeling sleepy.
Do you have a balm? - Yes.
Inhale steam before going to bed. - Okay.
Well, you should come with him to the birthday party.
Okay. - Goodnight. - Goodnight.
Who are you trying to call? - Sister. Let me try again.
No, no need!
We have called them enough times. Come.
Hasn't he come yet?
You've been waiting for so long.
It's already late.
What would all the guests think?
Archana is not here yet.
It's all because of him.
He, along with his aunt, is trying to test my patience.
I will go and pick them up in our car.
No! I don't know how he would behave.
He might misunderstand you.
What is it, Sister? Where are they?
Did you call her on the phone? - She is not picking the phone.
Aunt. - Coming, dear. - I'm leaving.
Dear, call an auto rickshaw.
Shankaran will accompany you if you want. - No.
It's late. I'll go alone.
Where is Archana?
Well, it's the end of the month.
They might have run out of money.
Her husband's prestige won't allow him
to come empty-handed for a birthday party.
Happy birthday to you, Uncle.
Where is Sukumaran, dear?
It's the end of the month.
He might have run out of money.
His prestige won't allow him
to come empty-handed for a birthday party.
What I said is fact!
This watch looks costly.
If the gift is cheap, the one who gives the gift is even cheaper.
This is not so costly. Especially for you!
What are you trying to say? - I didn't hear you.
Sister. Look at this.
It's a gift from Raju. Beautiful. Isn't it?
At least, put a smile on your face.
Where is Sukumaran?
He was very late. So I came alone.
Dad. Look at this watch.
Sister bought it for him.
Raju said that it's costly.
Do you need to show these type of formalities?
This is your house.
You should not spend Sukumaran's money carelessly.
Dad!
Where were you all this time?
I had a lot of work. - Don't think that I'm a fool.
You have never been this late.
Did you think that I would believe your lies?
It makes no difference to them even if I go.
Anyway, she has gone for the party.
What else should she do?
Can she abandon her parents?
Poor thing! She was so worried.
She was almost crying. I'm the one who forced her to go.
Listen to this, even if you don't like it.
You're crossing the limit.
Welcome, Devi..
Devi..
Devi doesn't seem to be in a good mood.
This night will be our second first night.
That means..
Don't get angry.
Listen to what I have to say.
Aunt scolded me a lot because I didn't come early.
I am upset for not being able to come.
I am sorry.
Did you go empty-handed?
Couldn't you buy a gift for Ravi?
A birthday present.
They don't expect it from the wife of a man who works until 5 p.m.
and then takes tuitions until 10 p.m.
Wait, Archana.
Do you how hard I worked to decorate this room?
You didn't even look at it.
If you think that lighting incense sticks and tossing flowers
will do the job..
Archana.
Don't be upset tonight.
Please.
This is a night of shame.
Only if you could realise how much I was insulted
you wouldn't have decorated the room so much.
You wouldn't have welcomed me that way.
Did you take me to be a toy?
Suku.. - What?
Is it really late in the morning, Aunt?
Why did you sleep over here?
It is hard to read in that room at night.
I will sleep over here from now on.
Tea.
The tea will go cold.
I am sorry. - Never mind.
Always.
I get scared when he becomes angry.
Don't let him get angry like this.
Oh, that could be him.
I met Mr. Raveendranath on the way.
Raveendranath?
Oh, are you talking about uncle?
You can gift him a watch if you want.
If you had only told me once about it
I wouldn't have been in such a delicate position.
Shankaran..
What is it?
Ask aunt to serve dinner.
Leave this matter behind.
I won't entertain such lunacy from tomorrow.
What are you talking about?
Am I supposed to serve you dinner?
Well, you used to serve me dinner.
Just think that you had taken leaves for a few days.
Now you have come back to work.
Don't you have any shame to say such a thing?
Do you think I will take care of you all your life?
Oh, you were here all along, were you?
Did you hear what he was saying?
I don't want it.
Why did you get the pillow here?
I will need a pillow to sleep.
Don't you have a place to sleep?
I want to read.
Why are you wasting your time?
I don't understand.
You won't be able to read.
You might see my face in the books.
Then you will start thinking about ways to punish me.
I don't want to punish anybody.
I know.
You are punishing yourself.
That is the best way to punish me.
Isn't that right?
Think about your own mistakes instead of picking on others.
You are a different person when you return.
I am not willing to tolerate this.
I wouldn't have had any problems if I had that issue.
What did you say?
Wait.
It takes two hands to clap.
When one gets a little angry, the other must calm down.
Don't worry, Aunt.
Isn't this common in every household?
I am lucky to get a wise girl like you as my nephew's wife.
I need to cool him down.
Mr. Sukumaran..
Open the door.
Can't you hear me?
Open the door.
I am begging you.
Won't you listen to me?
Open the door.
Why are you moving this picture?
Mr. Sukumaran asked me to move it to the reading room.
Can't you tell him that it is not right to move that picture, dear?
You know that he does not
listen to me.
Moreover, I thought of not fighting in front of Shankaran.
Where will this end if this goes on like this?
Why are you packing your suitcase? Why?
Mom has been calling me regularly for some time now.
Bharathi's wedding has been fixed.
This family was supposed to be happy.
Hello. 2-4-5-9.
It is me, dear.
Why is your voice low? Are you not well?
No, I am fine.
Don't try to hide it.
There is some problem.
What problem?
Don't try to hide it by laughing.
This can't be tolerated.
You will have to come here for several days.
I want to know what the issue is.
There is no issue here, Mom.
I don't think I can come immediately.
I am a little busy now.
I don't care.
Inform Suku and come here.
What?
His aunt?
You don't need her permission.
Why are you so adamant, Mom?
You don't have the patience to understand anything.
Oh, no.
Just a moment, Mom.
What have you done, Shankaran?
What is this?
The stool slipped and I fell with the picture.
He is losing a lot of blood, dear. - I shall get the medicines.
Pick up the phone and tell mom to call later. - Okay.
Come.
So if that lady calls
while talking to me, will you go?
Why are you silent?
I could understand if she was Suku's mom.
She is just some old lady who is distantly related to him.
What authority does she have in that house?
Why are you still silent?
I am Suku's aunt.
Archana will call you after a while.
She told me to inform you this.
Shankaran. - Yes?
I told you to fix my mom's picture here.
I had started to fix it. - And?
No one told Shankaran not to fix it here.
The stool slipped and I fell with the picture.
Okay, leave.
Is there no tea? - It is not the time for tea.
Drink this.
Thanks for replacing the broken glass for me.
I need to go to my house.
I thought of fixing it before that.
Shall I leave?
You may go after telling my aunt.
Don't I have to ask you?
What is the use in asking me if you've already decided to go?
I made up my mind today.
When I heard you telling Shankaran
to move the picture from my room.
Okay.
Have some good time with your mom.
You will have peace of mind.
'It would've been fine if he had told me not to go.'
'He did not even become angry.'
Why are the lights turned off?
What is it, Aunt?
It is nothing, dear.
Why are you crying, Aunt?
Don't create a scene.
I have a lot of sorrows.
The time to end my life has come.
When I thought about God
my eyes became teary.
Will you cry when you think about God?
No one of your age will understand
why eyes become wet while praying to God.
You may be right.
But the Gods are not responsible for your tears
but humans.
I know that.
The mistake was mine. - Suku!
Who told you to tolerate everything?
Should someone tell me to do anything in my home?
Why is aunt crying?
Are you questioning me or do you need the reason?
I did not get you.
You are questioning me
as if I fought with your aunt.
I have not seen my aunt cry like this.
Your poor aunt.
She is good at heart.
She can't stand us fighting.
If you are not happy and peaceful
she might want you to know
from her tears that
I have no place in this house.
Where is my watch?
Here it is.
Why are you not combing your hair?
It is fine. - Wait.
If you don't want Archana to go to her home
why are you not telling her?
It is not right if you are silent.
I told her.
Does she not have the capacity to understand?
How can she?
She understands a lot of things on her own.
What is the use if she can't understand this simple thing?
Aunt.
Tell Shankaran to fix mom's picture in my bedroom.
Why are you back early, dear?
What? Has Archana left?
Did you tell her that you will be back early?
When did she leave? - By noon.
When did she say she would return?
Didn't she tell you, Aunt?
I thought she'd have told you, so I didn't ask.
Let her stay there for a few days.
You should bring back Archana this Saturday, dear.
Why?
Your aunts are going to Kashi this Sunday.
The facilities for their stay have been arranged by your uncle.
It is easy for him as he works at Vidyapeetam.
I am thinking of going with them.
You may go even if Archana does not return.
When will you return?
Don't ask me anything about my return, dear.
You opposed me whenever I planned this before.
You must not do that this time.
Okay.
Are you angry?
I know you find it difficult to stay here, Aunt.
But I did not expect you to leave so soon.
You shouldn't hide anything from me, Aunt.
I can't stand it.
Did anyone tell you anything?
You are talking nonsense.
Please tell me what happened.
Else, I won't leave you.
Leave me, dear. - I won't leave you.
Archana has always respected and loved me.
She won't do anything else.
She might not do it.
But those who can, are with her.
I don't care if anyone else says anything.
You should bring her this Saturday.
Let me leave. Water is boiling in the kitchen.
Hello. Hello.
It's me, Archana.
Won't you talk to me? Hello?
You deceived everyone in the house, Sister.
But you won't succeed in deceiving me.
I didn't deceive anyone.
I was deceiving myself.
Son, adjust your collar.
Oh, I'm late.
The movie was awesome, Mom.
But sister didn't like it.
Go and freshen up.
Archana, come with me.
Your aunt came while you were out.
Here. - Aunt?
Yes, she asked me to give you these keys.
Which keys?
You are a true housewife.
Can't you recognise your own house keys?
Why did she come here to give me these keys?
She is going to Kashi on the evening train.
No. That shouldn't happen.
What shouldn't happen? Archana. Stop!
Archana, stop. I asked you to stop!
Archana! Archana! Stop!
Where are you going? - Is our car outside?
Yes. Where are you going?
Ravi, don't let her go. Call her back!
Archana! - Archana!
You can go back. I'm not coming.
Why are you here, all of a sudden?
What's the matter? - You should face me when you talk.
What did you say?
Where's aunt?
She went to Kashi. - Why?
Because it's impossible to live here.
Why did she feel it's impossible to live here?
She didn't give me a specific reason.
Why didn't you inform me?
What would have happened if I did? - She wouldn't have left.
That would have increased your difficulties.
For me?
What did you mean?
I mean, for you and your mother.
Stop!
From the very beginning
I have tried everything
to not cause any harm to your pride and respect.
You don't know the mental strain
that I've been through.
You didn't show
a little co-operation.
You didn't even try
to understand me!
Was it only my duty
to find a solution for everything?
You shouldn't have come here after chasing my aunt away.
What did you say? Are you blaming me for that?
How could you blame me for that? Don't you feel ashamed?
I was just being true.
Everyone gets mad from time to time but they are not as cheap as you.
Just know that you just put an end to our relationship.
I don't have anything to do with you anymore.
Hello. - Is this Mr. Sukumaran?
Yes. You are talking to Sukumaran.
Is Archana Devi there? - Yes.
I didn't know that she was coming.
She didn't tell us where she was going.
You can come here and take her back.
I hate his attitude.
What's wrong with her to go behind a guy like him?
He is the one responsible for all this.
You always blame dad for everything, Mom.
Don't stop her, dear. Let her say whatever she wants.
Am I right, Bhageerathi?
My daughter has no peace of mind.
It's the same here and there.
I feel sad for her.
What about me, then?
If it was me, I wouldn't have let this happen.
Then I'll take full responsibility for what happened to her.
Are you happy now?
But you should know something.
Do you want her to be happy?
Or do you want her to agree with everything you say?
Just think about it. If you can.
I always wanted the best for my children.
Calm down, Mom. At least she is safe there.
Yes, she is there. I hope that she is happy there.
"This Veena at rest contains the song of my soul."
"Bound by a curse, it rests in the dark."
"It rests in the dark."
"This Veena at rest contains the song of my soul."
"Bound by a curse, it rests in the dark."
Your mom will be coming here to take you back home.
I'll be going back with her.
That's better than just acting as a couple.
Getting separated is a much better option.
But that has to be.. - It will be according to law.
Without creating any hassles?
Yes, you won't be disturbed.
Where did I keep my handkerchief? Oh, it's here.
Why is everyone so silent?
What is it, Archana? You have your luggage with you.
I'm not going back again.
He kicked you out. I'll deal with this.
I knew this earlier.
Think of it as good for you.
You are blaming everything on me and sitting here in peace.
Bhageerathi, don't speak like that again.
I can't abandon her like this. She has left her husband.
Talk to her. What will she feel?
She knows me very well.
Everyone except me knows you very well.
I'm not saying it because she is my niece
but I can't fathom that he'd do this to a girl like Archana.
Is Archana here? - Yes. She is not going back.
What are you looking for, Sister?
I was going through my old books.
Bharathi, I've decided to do my master's degree.
I don't see a solution to this. - There is nothing to think.
This is common these days. - You're right. But..
A lawyer friend of mine told me that
there are 3,000 cases like this pending in court.
Are you saying that all 3,000 people have no life?
That's not what I said, Ravi. I don't know Archana's thoughts.
Why are you staring, dear?
Are you still talking about my future?
It's all in the past. I want to forget it.
You can't just say that and leave it at that.
Here. Sign this.
Okay. I'll do it so you don't lose your sleep over this.
That's all.
Just a signature and you two are separated forever.
I took care of you as a baby.
All of you have looked up to me as an uncle.
Can I say something? - Tell me.
What was done is unforgivable. There is no way one can justify it.
Are you convinced now? - Yes. I'm very happy.
Mr. Sukumaran, I congratulate you.
Not because Archana secured the first rank
but because you are a lucky man to have such a good wife.
Go. Go home and congratulate your wife.
Yes, sir.
Hello, Rajeev. You have brought a lot of fruits.
Give this to Archana. Give her my congratulations.
Congratulate her for what? - I'm coming from the university office.
Archana has secured a rank.
Really? - The news was hard to find out.
Good. Very good. Excellent.
Archana. Congratulations. Did you see the results?
Professor Sukumaran was waiting for the results since morning.
He didn't go to class.
He was so nervous to know your results
so I gave him the day off.
I'll tell you what Kalidasa said about love.
'I hope you never keep a distance from your husband, or love him less
or misunderstand him ever.'
This is a gift from Raju.
Raju went to the university first and informed us.
This is from Ravi. Look at this.
See this.
Bharathi's fiance's parents brought these.
They are amazing people. They were waiting all this time.
Family status is more important that education.
Did father sleep? - No.
Who is it?
Don't cry, dear. I understand everything.
Everyone congratulated me. At least, you didn't.
I'm relieved.
I understand you the best.
Father!
I need to talk to you. - What is it?
The groom's family wants Bharathi to be married immediately.
Let's fix a date.
There is no point in waiting. - There is. - Why?
When you are alone like this.. - You are destroying your life.
Why do you feel like that? - From the morning to night
you look through the Wanted column. Why do you want a job so bad?
The job is not for my livelihood.
People shouldn't just sit around.
Don't try to cheat yourself. - What are you trying to say?
You are divorced. Why don't you want to get married again?
Raju would do anything for you.
I know why you want Raju to marry me.
His money provides for everything here.
If not Raju, then someone else. You need to agree.
Mother. Don't talk to me about this again.
I've told you many times. This is the last time.
I pray that no other girl has a mother who cares
so much about her daughter's well-being.
Do I need to tell you that everything you did for me
brought me to this state? No, Mother.
Everything has burned to ashes.
There is nothing you can do for me now.
You can forget me.
Don't delay to fix the date for Bharathi's marriage.
Why are you crying?
You didn't eat anything today, sister.
We are supposed to fast on the wedding day.
But it's not your marriage.
Who said that it's not my marriage?
"The wedding altar is embellished with beautiful flowers."
"The lamp is glowing with the golden fire in the altar"
"when the gorgeous bride stepped onto the wedding altar.."
"When the gorgeous bride stepped onto the wedding altar."
"Please don't be tense, my dear little sister."
"The wedding altar is embellished with beautiful flowers."
"Two different fantasy kingdoms"
"are going to unite here."
"Two different fantasy kingdoms"
"are going to unite here."
"When two hearts are joined together"
"the kingdoms unite to form one single throne."
"The wedding altar is embellished with beautiful flowers."
"Let your married life"
"be fruitful and beautiful."
"Let your married life"
"be fruitful and beautiful."
"Your gorgeous bride is wearing"
"the garland you adorned around her neck."
"The wedding altar is embellished with beautiful flowers."
"The lamp is glowing with the golden fire in the altar"
"when the gorgeous bride stepped onto the wedding altar."
"Please don't be tense, my dear little sister."
What is it?
Who are you? - I am his wife.
Where is he?
He is inside.
Isn't he a professor? - Yes.
What do you want?
Where is Professor Sukumaran?
Please come inside. You can sit here.
She is here to meet you.
I wanted to see you for a long time.
Did you want to see me?
Yes. I wanted to meet you.
Aren't you Archana Devi?
Yes.
Doesn't he live here?
No. He moved from here.
He resigned his job and left this village.
Can I ask something?
Why should a great man like Professor Sukumaran spoil his life?
People like me will blame you for what happened to him.
In the application form you had sent to this school
you mentioned your name as Archana Devi.
You have written Professor Chandrasekhar's name
as K. N Chandrasekhar.
I didn't know that you were married.
Sir.
I am not just married
but I have also signed the papers for a divorce.
If that's the reason behind your sorrow
then I am ready to accept you
as you are.
If you can forget your past, I can do the same.
I will consider it as my good luck.
Forgive me, sir.
I loved a man and got married to him.
We lived together.
I can't imagine someone else
in the position of my husband.
I am sorry. I am very sorry.
If you can serve this village
then whatever the relationship we share
will not affect the love and respect I have for you.
Sorry for the disturbance.
I will take rest.
May I come in?
Yes.
I know I am responsible for your resignation from this job.
But this was unnecessary.
I am not like the legendary lovers Ramanan
and Devadas.
Archana, please forget what has happened.
I can't do it, sir.
I am not strong like you.
Except for my father, I haven't respected
anyone like I have respected you.
Not even my husband.
I don't want to live in this village facing you
every single day
after creating a misconception about me
in your mind.
It's okay if you don't want to face me.
I'll try not to come here.
But our students are innocent.
Are the exams not a month away?
I had told you when you joined
that you have to finish three terms in two terms' time.
The school must complete the syllabus
before the exams begin.
It is my duty.
I believe it is your duty too, Archana.
Until I appoint another teacher
you must teach them without forgetting
your responsibility.
That is my wish.
Only if you can.
Or if I have wronged you so as to leave this place
as soon as possible
you may do as you please.
Until you appoint another teacher
I will stay here.
Thank you. Thank you very much.
On behalf of this school.
And on behalf of my students.
The manager said you're free to go today.
Since it's a holiday, the relieving order is at his home.
He asked whether you could come there.
He has sent a car.
Greetings! - Greetings!
Come inside and have a seat.
I'll be right back. - Okay.
How come you are here?
You? - I..
I'm a teacher at his school.
Why?
Why haven't you shaved?
These buttons..
It's not just my buttons. My life is broken, too.
Why did we separate?
I don't know.
I do not know, either!
But I do.
Some mistakes were yours.
And some were yours.
And some that of the circumstances.
We cannot change destiny.
But one can correct his own mistakes.
What? Am I not correct?
Go.
Go and meet the professor first.
My teacher.
I'm not leaving, sir.
I cannot leave this school.
Yu are dismissed.
Go home. Meet him.
Spend some days with him.
Yes. I mean it.
Now, to your father.
To my professor.
Do you know how difficult it was for me to find him?
Whenever you feel like coming here
this village, my school, my students
and I will await your arrival.
Our doors will always remain open for you.
Come.
'The End'
