APPATHAVA AATAYA POTTUTANGA (Grandma's Missing)
Though I am not that rich...
yet I have a good reputation in and around
'Early morning Kanchipuram'
But today?
I gave the utmost care and love
The utmost care and love!
But she?
Look what she has done!
Listen...
Did you inquire about them?
Chief, we did inquire
Don't worry, chief. We'll nab him!
What?
- So, he too escaped? - Wait chief, I'm coming
- Chief, I am on my way! - It's over!
- I'm coming with our men - It's over!
It's all over!
Nothing's over, chief. Nothing is out of our hands! Don't worry
Chief please! Don't you cry
What the hell is this love?
Love, it only brings embarrassment and shame to one's family!
It's the hormones, chief
So, falling in love makes people crazy?
Indeed, that's why they did such a crazy thing, chief
Our family's name is put to shame!
We have lost our reputation
- Everything's gone! - Chief, nothing like that
One night! If we don't find them within one night...
then the whole family will drink poison and commit suicide
- No chief. Don't speak like that - Dad!
Chief, do not speak like that!
- Chief, myself and my men are almost there - Get down, first
Come on, guys!
Chief!
It's so shameful! This life is hell!
Our boss was talking to himself all this while!
It's all over
Stop laughing!
Chief...
Finally, here you are
Did you try finding out?
He is also absconding
It's over!
It's all over!
Chief! How far do you think both of them would've gone?
Just give me the photo
I'll take care of the rest
The honor and reputation of my family rests in your hand
One night! If we don't find them within one night...
my and my family will commit suicide...
Dad...
Don't you worry, chief. I am here for you
Just give me the photo, chief
Ensure nobody finds out about this
My whole family's honor is in your hands
Don't worry, chief!
We'll nab them before sunset!
Don't shout
Sorry, chief. Sorry
You are my only hope
Don't worry, boss. We are with you
- I can't see chief cry like that - Yes, he looks disgusting while crying
Useless love!
"Useless love! It tortures us so bad!"
"It's creates a rift in the family and makes everyone so sad"
"Useless love! It tortures us so bad!"
"It's creates a rift in the family and makes everyone so sad"
"It damages even the little good reputation we earn for ourselves"
"Couples elope to police station, so that they can tie the knot all by themselves"
"Guess only God can predict what pain does love have in store"
"Good-for-nothing love! It's dangerous to the core!"
"Parents struggle hard to get their children educated"
"But children ignore all that and lose themselves in social media instead"
"They show off and post selfies"
"Someone falls for them and they reciprocate"
"Why fall in love? To ignore everyone and elope?"
"Love is a drug that creates illusions"
"Useless love! It tortures us so bad!"
"It's creates a rift in the family and makes everyone so sad"
"Guys these days fall for not one buy many girls"
"He romances and has fun with all of them"
"He gets closer and closer to all of them"
"Finally marries and settles down with the girl his parents choose for him"
"Why fall in love? To ignore everyone and elope?"
"Love is a drug that creates illusions"
"Useless love! It tortures us so bad!"
"It's creates a rift in the family and makes everyone so sad"
"It damages even the little good reputation we earn for ourselves"
"Couples elope to police station, so that they can tie the knot all by themselves"
"Guess only God can predict what pain does love have in store"
"Good-for-nothing love! It's dangerous to the core!"
If we don't nab the eloped... within three hours...
then you'll be no more!
Wait
Have you seen the person in this photo?
Look at it properly and answer me!
Hey!
- Yes boss? - What are you doing?
You please carry on, sir
Please! Carry on
Keep moving
You!
Are you nuts? Why would you ask from someone here?
Well boss, he looked strange...
- and so I asked him - Are you nuts?
Don't make me abuse you! Go, start the vehicle
You show all your anger on me, all the time
She's wearing the ring in her toes. So, married
Rejected!
Here comes another one
Rejected
What a beauty?!
Wow! So awesome!
Shoot her and I won't need more mobile data
So many cute birdies around!
Look at her! She is the 'Sowcarpet Sharbath'
Wait and watch now!
Ouch!
Why are you dancing like a fool?
You, son of a...
Hey! No! No!
I'll finish you off!
Sir...
The house owner asked me to collect the rent
Come tomorrow and collect it
I have some expenses
Ok sir
Move away Annamalai vehicle on the way
What's this?
The vehicle is here
- Didn't he go to work? - Come tomorrow...
...and I'll finish you off!
No...
Why is daddy not going inside the home...
instead what is he doing so early in his work room?
Something's fishy!
Wait! I'll find out!
I hope there is no young girl in there, visiting him to get exorcized
Ramasamy!
They have set out on a man hunt with her photo
I am scared
Don't be scared
Then?
She trusts me a lot
Love birds?
Looks like the old guy is playing cupid inside!
I'm sure there must be a beautiful girl inside
Well...
could she be a 13 year old?
You are just 38 years old!
What's the hurry?
Please get us married at any cost, daddy!
Yes uncle!
Young girl! Young girl!
Not a young girl! Not a young girl!
Well could it be a 33 year old woman?
You are just 38 years old!
What's the hurry?
Please get us married at any cost, daddy!
Yes, dear father-in-law
Not an aunty! No! Not an aunty!
Well...
an 18 year old?
Just like the girl in the opposite home
Hi darling
Did you call me?
There is even a better girl than me, right in there
Do you want to see?
Do you like me so much?
Answer me, darling. Tell me
I was just kidding and here you are, right in front of me
How can I refuse when you call me?
What's up, Devi? Heard that your husband hasn't returned home since two days
Looks like my family is the topic of your gossip today
I wonder how does all the news reach you
That was spot on, isn't it?
Blame me that I came to you to buy flowers
Well, truth gets her all riled up
'R.Shanmugam M.A Taluk Officer'
One night...
If we don't get them within one night...
Then me and my family has no other option but to drink poison and commit suicide
Dad...
Then what about my love affair?
I won't commit suicide
Get lost, you fool!
Dear father-in-law, you know there is no sugar.
Why didn't you buy it while buying milk?
I forgot
Come on! Now, go! Go, buy sugar. 1/2 kilo should be enough
Also buy 1/2 kilo tomatoes, 1/2 kilo onion
Shall I take the scooter?
Why do you need scooter to go to the shop nearby?
- Just walk and go - Ok dear
- He needs scooter it seems! - Fine, I'll go
Devil! Makes me do all the work
Has no consideration for an elder person
Why are you yelling at my dad?
It's all my fate!
Why are you here, all of a sudden?
We just met yesterday. What's the matter?
Last night...
there was an issue
Issue?
I deal issues with issues!
So don't talk to me about issues
Well, it'll take sometime
So, shall I wait inside your house?
If he forgets to buy anything on the list I told him, I'll show him no mercy!
It's ok. I'm just going to the shop nearby
Do one thing. Join me and we shall discuss as we walk
- So, what's the matter? - Cheenu...
Remember our friend, Bangalore Ramasamy? He is in love with a girl
Who? That second year girl, Geetha?
Nope. It seems, her name is Meenakshi
Fine, don't worry. He'll be here
How are you?
I am fine
- Bangalore Ramasamy? - Indeed him!
I'm telling you, that guy has a lucky mole in his body
He...
He is the real 'King of love'
This is the best decision he has ever made in his life
Where is my buddy right now? Tell me
I want to gift him a present
What? You're going to gift him?
What else?
Aiyo!
We must help him with the marriage
Any financial issue?
Nope
Age issue
I told you, I deal issues with issues
Don't worry. We'll take care of it
I have just asked him to buy four things. Wait and watch how many he forgets
Let him forget something and I'll will not have any consideration for my father-in-law
- Uh-oh! - What happened?
I forgot what she ordered me to buy
I don't get you
I forgot what my daughter in law ordered me to buy
Aiy-aiyo! What are you going to do now?
Well, time to take a day off from home
Why did you throw them away?
Come on, let's go visit our groom
But before that...
we must visit Chokkalingam
Is it?
Nice idea
What a crappy idea!
No matter what, Ramasamy is wrong!
He has committed a blunder!
What's your mother-in-law doing?
She is bathing Babloo, dear father-in-law
Look here guys
You have visited me after a long time
Drink the tea and leave
Well, Chokkalingam...
Stop!
I can't support this atrocity! There, I said it!
What's wrong with what he did?
Calm down. Quiet
Chokka...
think again
Is Ramasamy really wrong?
Indeed!
What Ramasamy has done, is wrong!
Shut up you retard!
We raise our children, give them everything and help them achieve their dreams...
but our children?
I pity poor old people like us
Instead of just remaining slaves to our sons and daughter-in-laws...
why can't we find a new life for ourselves?
Well, we aren't lucky but at least be happy that Ramasamy found someone
Listen, even if we don't help Ramasamy...
but you must help him!
Because you owe it to him!
What is it, Chokka?
Forgot the past?
Chokka, why are you rushing like this?
Ramasamy, looks like they'll separate me from Kumudha
Nothing like that will happen
My brother is behind us and everyone's carrying machete
Don't worry, I'll face the whole world to ensure you and Kumudha are not separated!
I promise!
We must help them. Come, let's go!
To where?
To Sudhandhiram's house
You do have a point...
but...
the society won't accept them
Just a minute
Look!
Have a good look at it!
Old people like us...
the people who are kicked away by their children...
and left stranded for love and care...
They help each other by choosing an apt friend and marrying them
They live for just love and care and this is a common practice in Bangalore
Even I know such things happen in Bangalore
We can't change the lifestyle here just because it's different elsewhere
Let's leave this fool and take care of everything ourselves
You're right!
He hasn't changed since college. Always stops us from doing good things
Fine...
I'll inform
We'll convey that you aren't willing to help
Come on!
Ramasamy and that lady pleaded me
He has always puts his life on the line for us, his friends
In fact...
during college...
remember the issues caused by the Chokkalingam's girlfriend's family
and yet who united Chokkalingam and Amudha amidst all those issues?
- It's Kumudha not Amudha - Like that's important now!
Who helped them?
Wasn't it Ramasamy?
But today...
when he needs help...
Chokka fell in love during beginning stages of life and that's fine
But Ramasamy has fallen in loved during the twilight of his life
Forget him. We are here to here to help Ramasamy
Your name means Freedom, yet why don't you help two love birds attain freedom?
At such an old age...
...what is there we can do?
So what if we are old?
Sir Periyar fought for the downtrodden at an age of 94!
When Mother Teresa toiled hard and took care of patients, she was 87 years old!
When the English were chased away, Gandhi was 77 years old
Your date of birth doesn't decide your retirement
Whoa Cheenu! Where did that come from?
Yesterday night...
Hello
I am Meenakshi's son
Tell me
She left a letter for me and...
she left home
I just called to ask if you have any idea about it
No. I don't know anything
So, is your wife there at home?
Yes, she is here
Remind her that one day she'll be old too...
and she too will wet the bed
Ramasamy eloped with Meenakshi!
But on one condition
At any cost...
...my family shouldn't find out about this
So you say it's fine if my family finds out?
None of our families should find out about this
Because if they find out...
Stop! I said, stop!
You old man! Have some self respect! I regret being your son!
- I'll break your legs! - Dear!
Don't break his legs, then who will go out to buy groceries?
Instead break his hand!
Your jaws must be broken first! I regret marrying my son to you
Devil! Devil!
Did you just call me a devil?
How dare you? Here I come!
- How dare you call my wife a devil? - How dare you?
Ouch! Aiyo! Ouch!
Anywhere I touch, it pains
Look how he bashed me up
Grandpa...
my friend has fallen in love
Looks like the girl's family is creating issues
Shall I bring them here, can you help them too?
Please don't make me get more beating. Just leave
- Just leave! - Answer me, grandpa! Answer me
Rituals are about to begin again
Don't beat him too much. Listen to me
Do you think you are still a youth?
Didn't you already beat me up enough? It's paining real bad
If I don't punish you then you'll play cupid to many more old love birds out there!
Remember, Ramasamy is the reason you were born!
Mommy!
What do you mean?
Idiots! I meant Ramasamy help me get married to your mother
- Showing your loyalty? - No, showing my friendship
Look at him...
Mom, do we have any sack here?
Sack?
To put you in it, tie you up and drown in a well!
The buttermilk gravy is awesome!
Daddy, you raised me with discipline
You taught me honesty, honor, tradition and everything
I hope you remember
This buttermilk gravy tastes real good. Give me some more
But then you...
My friend!
He is my friend!
If this incident had occurred in another family...
the children would have thrashed their dad to death by now
But I am dealing with you in a calm manner
Do you know why?
Because of me!
The way I have raised you
And that is why...
you have grown up knowing to love and respect others
Shut up, you fool!
That is why I mixed poison in your food!
Forget him mom!
If people ask tell them he died of snake bite
Listen, no! Don't say that
Instead...
we'll say he died of heart attack
Own dream?
Well, it's not going to be easy
Fine, we'll take care of it
We will help those love birds unite
This is a promise
It's a promise!
If I catch hold of her...
I'll lay one tight slap!
And she must go in to comma for six months!
And if I catch hold of the guy who eloped with her...
Love! My foot!
What's the use of falling in love at this age? Huh?
Dear, age is not an important factor for falling in love
All it needs is a heart and that's all
Spot on!
- What? - Why are you scolding him?
The whole world wants and supports love
Ok, quiet now. Please
He is crazy!
You think I am mad?
Do you know how many couples have I helped in my native?
That too only love marriages!
The whole place and families were against them...
but me and my friend helped many couples get married
But let me tell you something. No one can separate true lovers
If anyone thinks to separate true lovers...
I swear by Lord Guruvayurappan that those lovers will unite in death at the least
I swear by my profession
Corpse?
Only one
Any other corpse along with it?
My God!
You cold blood murderers!
How did you have a heart to chase them and finish them off?
- Come on - Yes boss
A old lady's corpse is lying by the peepal tree in the neighborhood
Let's go check if it's her
- Old lady? - Ok chief
Cool...
I was worried if it was one of the lovers you were speaking about
Thank God it's an old lady. I am at peace now
Fool! Fool! Nonsense fellow!
It was indeed an old lady and old man who eloped! You pot head!
- Come on - Come on, guys!
What? Old love birds?
Hey, don't touch
Then police will press charges against you
Old man, I am telling you
- What? Do you want to go to jail? - Go back
Leaving your house hold works Have you come here, huh!
Do not touch or else the police will press charges against you
Don't touch Go back
Do not touch or else the police will press charges against you
- We are the police - Show me your Id
See, manager is asking for the Id...
- Come, I'll show you - The id?
- Yes, come with me - To where?
It's in our cab. Come, I'll show it
This old lady could've eloped with someone instead of dying an orphan
At least someone would've shed tears for her
Brought your child back home?
- How is he doing? - He is doing good, aunty
How's Nancy?
She is doing fine too
What's your kid's name?
Jude Samuel
- Nice name - Thank you
- Did you meet the father? - Yet to
- Ok then - See you, aunty
Mom, quick! Come to home
What is the matter?
Dad has got a girl in the exorcism room
Don't talk rubbish!
She must be possessed and he might have got her to get rid of it
You are mad!
Something is fishy, mom
I'm sure nothing like that will happen. You go, I'll come
Mom...
Please believe me at least now
I do believe you
I'll just tally this month's account and then come. You leave
There's no time for it
Mind you
Fine. Leave, I'll come
- Make it fast - Sure
You leave now
Ramasamy, laugh all you want now
Indeed. Indeed
Hey...
Why's the home like this?
It appears to be a haunted house
He is indeed an exorcist now
Well...
I thought you were crazy about ghosts etc. during college time...
- but now for real? - Indeed!
I talk to spirits for real
Spirits are afraid of me
Indeed
They will fear you
That's because the way you look!
Don't call this exorcism a profession!
Not a profession, it's a service
I wish to serve those who are in trouble
So tell me, what do you do?
I work in a bank
At this age?
Which bank?
Well...that...err...
I don't work at a bank exactly...
- I work at the ATM during night... - Got it
So you work as night watchman
So what?
There is no shame in being a watchman
I meant you are not fit to be a watchman
How about that?
Let that be, where do you work?
I am retired...
A job named 'retired?'
Retired HM, the Head Master
So if any problem arises here...
then you'll be in the headlines, correct?
Jolly! Jolly!
Punch right on his mouth!
Try to understand the situation!
Hey Cheenu...
why are you getting upset?
Well, you didn't tell us where do you work
Household chores
What do you mean?
Food...and stay free
But no salary
You don't get it?
I'm talking about my home
From buying milk pack in the morning...
to buying mosquito coil in the night...
It's hell!
At least you are lucky to that you do household chores at your own home
But myself?
I have everything and everyone...
yet I am an orphan
Why are you getting emotional?
If not your family...
aren't we all here for you?
Listen...
you are elder brother of ' the King of love' Don't feel bad
Spot on!
During college days, girls used to be crazy for him and many of them proposed him
And all of them got the same reply from Ramasamy...
and that was a big 'No!'
And today he has made a revolution in love!
He is the 'King of revolution!'
All that is required to fall in love is a good heart...
nothing else matters
Beauty, wealth, education, religion, age etc. nothing matters
All it needs is a heart! That's all!
When you guys are strong in your love...
then don't be afraid of anything
You guys...
We'll help you unite!
And you guys...
well, we...we...
- Cheenu! What happened? - Cheenu!
What happened? He just fainted out of the blue
Cheenu, what happened to you? Cheenu!
I think he has low sugar
- Get some sugar - Right away
This is shocking. How did it happen all of a sudden?
- Cheenu! Wake up! - What a pity!
Where is sugar?
Phew!
Let me take the whole packet
What are you going to do upstairs with sugar?
What could it be?
Darling...
Don't you know why sugar is used?
What are you up to?
One slap and...
Don't you know you have low sugar?
Can't you carry a chocolate in your pocket?
You...
No matter what happens to us...
...nothing will happen to you both
It's our responsibility to unite you both
Hello
Who is it? Shanmugam?
It's me, your aunt
Looks like you'll talk to me only if I call you up
I hope you guys remember me
Tell me, dear aunt
How are you?
I am fine, aunt
Put my sister on the line
Shanmugam...
- Shanmugam? - Yes, aunt?
Put your mother on the line
Aunt...
what's the matter? Tell me
I'll convey it to her
It's urgent
I must talk to your mother
- Just put her on the line - What happened?
Tell me, whatever it is
Well, dear...
- Last night - Last night?
Do you know what happened?
She was planning to elope with her lover without her family's knowledge
- Suddenly there was power outage at my home - Power outage?
I couldn't watch half of the remaining episode of the 'Vamsam' TV serial
Hence, I thought let me find out
Now, put your mother on the line
This torture is way too much to take!
Troublesome!
- Dear aunt - Tell me
Mom...
has gone out to a temple with the neighbors
Is it so? Fine, where is Rani?
She is cooking, aunt
- Wait... - Ok
Rani!
Did you watch the serial last night?
My aunt's asking. It seems she missed 'Vamsam' and 'Vani Rani'
Say you didn't watch
Just say it!
"V Rani, 2nd standard"
"Wins first prize in acting"
- "Applause please" - Where are you going?
Now, watch my acting
No dear. Tell her, I too missed it
Last night there was a power outage here too
I was waiting to call your aunt and ask her
Now, how was that? Awesome?
Wait, I'll tell you!
Aunt...
I heard that, dear. I heard it
Poor Rani, looks like she is held up with chores
Fine, I'll call up my brother's wife and find out
She would have definitely watched it
Tell Rani that I'll find out and tell her what happened
Fine, ask your mom to call me once she is back
It's been long since I spoke to her
- Ok, I shall hang up - For God's sake, hang up!
What was that?
Ok dear aunt...
I said, go ahead and hang up
Ok. I'll find out and call
Ok dear aunt
"C Shanmugam, Fifth standard"
"First prize in Karate"
"Make it fast"
How many times have I warned you not to watch those serials?
Why are you beating me?
Checking out books?
Yes
Where did you meet Meenu first?
What?
Did you say 'Meenu?'
Well...
I meant where did you meet Meenakshi first?
The moment I laid my eyes on this angel...
there were a thousand butterflies in my stomach
That moment...
I still remember it
Like a nail to tree; it's stuck in me
It's still fresh in my heart
One day, I was watering the plant
Please listen to me, Shanmugam
Please dear, don't leave me here
I feel very strange here
Please let me live in some corner of your house
I am not demanding you to serve me a three course meal
All I am asking is to feed me some gruel every day
No matter what your wife says, I promise to remain silent and obedient
Please don't leave me here
In order to compensate for staying at your home and eating your food...
I shall go out, do household chores, earn and pay you
I promise not to fight with your wife for the TV remote
I promise not to fight with her over which TV serials to watch
I also promise not to trouble you asking money for my weekly diabetes medicine
Trust me. I won't trouble you asking money
Also, Shanmugam...
I also promise not to wet the bed hereafter, dear
Mom...
if you come home again...
I'll commit suicide
Try to understand, mom
I don't have any other option
Dear...
Shanmugam...
Driver, let's leave immediately
Shanmugam!
My son just abandoned me
Shanmugam!
"Parent or the child; who will be there for whom?"
"Old age is where even parents become children"
"She gave him the world and he looked at her like a burden"
"Those little hands that held her fingers back then, refuses to hold her now"
"At the twilight of life, all she needs is to be with her child till her journey is over"
"Parent or the child; who will be there for whom?"
"Old age is where even parents become children"
"An innocent soul left stranded and lonely"
"A poor soul that has lost all her happiness"
"She forgot hunger, as she waited"
"Yet she could never return home knowing where her child is"
"If I could, I must take birth as your child someday"
"And still show you the amount of love I have for you; my child"
"I live for you and you are the reason for my existence"
"Oh my dear son!"
"Parent or the child; who will be there for whom?"
"Old age is where even parents become children"
"She gave him the world and he looked at her like a burden"
"Those little hands that held her fingers back then, refuses to hold her now"
"At the twilight of life, all she needs is to be with her child till her journey is over"
"Parent or the child; who will be there for whom?"
"Old age is where even parents become children"
She too got betrayed by her son, like me
She gave her son all the happiness in the world...
and that disloyal son in return left her and gifted her nothing but tears
She raised him as a single mother
But that fellow? He left her stranded and lonely
And that loneliness started to kill her slowly
- Nagraj, look she fainted - Sir...
Check what happened to her
Viji, call up her family
Hello
Sir, your mother is sick and she fainted
Tell me, how much money should I send?
Sir, we didn't call to ask you money
Here
- Did our daughter leave for college? - Yes, she left
Your mother's acting skills have improved watching all those serials
He doesn't understand the difference between affection and acting
Her darling son...
forgot to show affection on her
Without realizing that, this crazy woman...
still kept waiting and thinking about her son
Aren't you sleeping?
Why are you sitting out in the cold weather?
I want to talk to my son
It's midnight
Will he be awake?
Today is his birthday
Here
Talk to him
Here
- Thank you - Give it here
Hello
Shanmugam...
it's me, your mom
Who is it? My elder brother, right?
Is that Vasu uncle?
Wrong number
Wrong number? My foot!
She calls him after all the he has done to her...
She yearned for some love
After I came in to her life, she is happy and content with the affection I showed her
What's your problem, mom?
Why are you behaving like this?
Are you angry that I left you here?
I didn't know what else to do, mom!
Everyday used to be hell when I return from office. No peace at all!
She'll say something and then you'll say something back...
all unwanted issues!
That's why I left you here
Do you really understand my situation?
You tell me, what do I do now?
Go, leave your wife in some foster home
Do you think parents are fools?
Hence...
I decided that I will keep her happy till my last breath
Now that's some love! Awesome buddy!
- Stella sister... - Yes?
You promised to pay the rent on time
But what happened now?
Yes, we did promise
Well, my dad sent his assistant to collect the rent...
and your husband asked him to come tomorrow
Dad's disappointed. You see, even we got loans to pay
I'll return home in sometime
I'll reach and call you
You send Annamalai and collect the rent
Ok sister
He promised me that he'll pay the rent today morning
Something is fishy
Today afternoon at 2 we will shift them both
We'll reach Tirupathi by night
We'll book rooms and rest there
Early morning we'll take them to the temple and get them married
Superb!
A very clear and clean plan
There is a small problem with this
What's that?
When we shift them today afternoon 2 'O clock...
there won't be much crowd outside...
but that flower vendor outside is an issue
She must not find out about our plan
If she finds out about us or sees us...
all our plan will go down the drain
I don't understand what's the flower vendor got to do with this
The flower vendor lady's shop is right opposite to Meenakshi's house
What do you mean?
Yes
When Ramasamy asked me for help...
I invited him to my house and said there's nothing to worry
Only later I found out that he fell in love with a woman who lives right opposite to me
I promised to help him...
hence I had to live up to my promise
Holy guacamole! Why didn't you say it earlier?
Look here...
our friend needs us and that's all that matter to us
We must face any problems that comes our way
I have a bad feeling about this
Get lost you chicken!
Be bold and strong otherwise nothing will work out
That's the only way to win!
I think my son has also not gone to work today
- I must ensure he doesn't find out anything - Come on!
Why are you scared of the flower vendor and your son? Look!
Do not exhibit your fears!
Let it be the flower vendor or your son or be it Meenakshi's son...
we are going to give it a shot!
Fine, where's the car?
Where's does the flower vendor sit?
And which one is Meenu's house?
Welcome Dhanam. Need flowers?
Whoa! You didn't even look at me yet how did you know it was me?
I don't have look at anyone's face
Really?
Everyone emits a unique fragrance
And I can easily find out who comes and goes and who is here and who is missing
So, do you know what happened at Sarasu's house?
Of course!
Do you want to hear the story of Sarasu's son getting busted up while stalking...
Not that one...
the other one
Aiyo! Keep quiet!
Then...
Today early morning at 3:45...
Sarasu's husband went to Gujili's house and...
got caught by her husband and got bashed up. Are you talking about that?
Is she a flower vendor or news channel?
She gossips in and out about every story of every house here!
How is that you are aware of everything happening in and around here?
I am awestruck!
Fine, any new gossips?
Why not? There are many
See that house? It's appears mysterious since morning
Over! It's over! It's all over!
The whole village will now come to know of this now
How did she know it when no one else outside knows about it?
- Not me! - Neither did I!
Why are you so sure?
Did you watch 'Vamsam' and 'Vani Rani' serials last night?
Yes, I did
But looks like there was power outage in that house
How is that possible? We have a common cable connection throughout here
Not just that, Dhanam...
everyday they wash their verandah and draw Rangoli but today?
They didn't clean or draw Rangoli. Also, the house is very quiet
I somehow have a very bad feeling about it
Your instincts are spot on all the times
Over!
It's over!
It's so shameful!
We lost our reputation
It's all over
Aiyo
You fools! Saw that? Heard that?
Look how brainy and clever that flower vendor is
If she was born in the US then by now she would've been to space and back many times
Why don't you both have brains like her?
Aiyo...
What's wrong with him?
Here, hold it! Hold it!
Go, wash the verandah and draw Rangoli
Ensure the flower vendor doesn't get any doubt
Dad, time's 11:30
If we wash the and draw Rangoli now, she'll get more doubts
Only pregnant ladies do this chore at this hour
Then she'll doubt Gayathri
Yeah! Give ideas at the wrong hour!
I was born and brought up in this village
At office...
or...
even in the streets around...
every person on my way...
every person on my way greets me
But because of that old lady's stupid deal...
Aiyo!
I doubted her the last time I met her
Didn't you fight asking why I got my mother back from the old age home?
Let me explain
Now, I'll tell you why
I'll tell you right away!
The reason for bringing that old lady back home
I didn't want you to know the real truth
Remember, I went to the old age home to get her signature for selling our land?
Guess, what I saw when I went there
I wonder what do you both keep talking all day long
We both are talking about starting a new life together. Ok?
Really? Go ahead, carry on
Let's wait and watch
You were right. She will be confused
I just told her the truth
Tell her and everyone else will know
Is it?
Her head will burst if she doesn't gossip
- That's why I told her so - Well, I'm sure you said it for a reason
Thank you
What's your problem? Do you have TB?
Can't you see we are talking?
Oh!
It was you?
How are you?
Looks like you are very happy
Sign these papers
Where do you want me to sign?
First, ask why!
You! Who are you?
Hey, Shanmugam!
Don't you get angry on him
I got a doubt back then...
that if I leave her there then both of them will bring shame to our family
Which is why I brought her back home from Old age home
Wait
I got this Old age home form from Andhra, without her knowledge
But...
as soon as she came here...
look what she did!
I told my men to find him out as early as possible
But even that old fellow escaped from the old age home
If I catch hold of them both together...
Ramasamy and Meenakshi...
shouldn't get noticed by anyone under any circumstances
Fine, here you go
Hold this
This is bluetooth, connect it to your phone
If you guys don't know how to connect it let me know and I'll help
Then, an important thing...
Does it work properly?
We must use this until Meenakshi gets into the car
Then?
Then, swallow the Bluetooth and drink water
- Come on, Cheenu - Then look at his doubt!
There's the car
I'll be waiting inside the car
Chokka, that's your position
You must alert us if anyone comes
Watch how I do it!
Especially, you must let us know when the flower vendor takes a nap
Cheenu...
stay with Ramasamy and Meenakshi, until my orders. Ok?
Sudhandhiram...
you stand here
Oh, so the game is about to start?
I am the referee to your game!
What does these oldies have to do with a chick?
Here I come
And all this must happen within the span of one minute
The girl is inside, isn't it?
Wait and watch, what I do?
Look someone's knocking on the door. Ramasamy and Meenakshi are inside
Come on! Come on!
Don't be scared!
What do you want?
Uh-oh he is starring at us
Who is there inside?
Why aren't you at work?
I asked, who's in there inside?
My friend!
He has got a possessed woman
What do you want?
Milk
Didn't you take away the milk kept for tea?
Ramasamy. Ramasamy
Yes Anthony?
I kept the milk packet inside, kindly open the door
Wait, I am coming
- It's me - Milk packet
I think that's his son waiting outside
- Well...err... - He isn't moving at all!
Come on. Quick
He has the same creepy looks like his father
He got the milk
Wait and watch, what I'm going to do you
Dinesh...
Tell me, dear
If my father doesn't approve of our relationship...
then eloping...
and getting married shouldn't be our plan
We'll somehow convince him and...
get his approval
Why did she change her mind all of a sudden?
Dear Gayu, I am ok with anything you want
But you always keep saying that we must elope and get married
What happened now?
Well, Dinesh...
my grandma...
left our family and went off
What happened?
Did your father scold her?
She eloped with her lover
What?!
Your grandma eloped with her lover?
If she doesn't return home by sunset...
the whole family will commit suicide...
says my father
Gayu!
Don't you worry, Dinesh. I won't commit suicide
Phew!
If my grandma's eloping incident is pushing my father to commit suicide...
so imagine what will happen if I elope with you
My father will commit suicide for real
You! No, I won't commit suicide for you!
Guess why!
Because I'm going to finish you off now
I'm trying to hide this incident from everyone around...
and are you announcing it to everyone?
- Father-in-law, don't beat her! - Are you trying to put my name to shame?
- Don't you thrash my dear Gayu! - Die! You better die!
Everything ok?
Flower vendor?
- She is asleep - Very good
Even my son is not at home. This is the right time!
I'll start the car and be ready...
I have clicked the photo of all the beauties here. How will I miss you?
Sudhandhiram...
Flower vendor?
Is she still asleep?
Yes, she is still asleep
Ok. Ok
Cheenu, you guys can come out
Come on, we got the signal to step out
The door is opening
Who asked for this oldie?
All clear. Come out
Come on
Coming
- No one's here. Quick - No one's here?
I'm here! Right above you all!
Quick!
What happened?
Who's that?
Leave him. You guys come! Come on, quick
Come on. Make it fast!
Come on Come fast!
I am coming
Come fast
(Song from 'Naadodigal')
Meenakshi!
Shanmugam, your mother!
My mother?!
Dear, wait!
(Song from 'Naadodigal')
Come on! Come on, guys!
Mother!
Don't stop. Keep going!
Get in! Get in the car!
Mother!
What are you doing? It's embarrassing!
Come with me, mom!
I said, come!
Come on, mom!
- Dear! - That's my father!
Dear?
Aren't you ashamed to fall in love with this person and elope with him?
You fool!
That's my grandma!
And you hit my father!
- Quick! Get in! - Move. Give me some place to sit
Your father?
Aiyo! Uncle, please forgive me!
I didn't know it was you
I am sorry, uncle
Grandma!
Mom!
Please forgive me, uncle
I'm sorry, uncle. Please forgive me
Who are you?
Why did you beat me unnecessarily?
Believe me uncle, it wasn't unnecessarily...
it was unintentional
Uncle?
Why do you think I am your uncle?
Daddy, he gained his consciousness
Get up. What happened?
Get up and sit
What happened to him?
- He rolled down and fell from upstairs - Toe ring
- Rascal!
Look at him
No toe ring; unmarried?
Uh-oh! Mustache!
I swear, it wasn't intentional
Didn't he thrash you?
That's why!
Because he harmed me?
Was it for me?
- Do you love me so much? - Yes
I love you dear, hubby!
I'll even finish off people for you!
- Love you dear - I love you so much
What's going on?
If I catch hold of your father and the other oldies...
I'll finish them off!
Before that I'll finish of those five oldies!
Wanna bet? Wanna bet?
I don't know, I heard the noise and came out
Shanmugam sir was beating up that boy
That boy?
Where did they go?
What's their plan?
What happened? Don't stop! Keep going
Don't know what happened
The car is out of fuel
Out of fuel?
You know we are going to Tirupathi, won't you fill up the tank?
Hey! Stop! Stop! Stop!
I said stop!
What is it?
Why did you ask me to stop?
Take reverse! Take reverse!
- First tell us what is it? - Fast! Reverse!
- Come on! Come on! - But why?
Faster!
Now, stop! Stop!
Who is he?
Not him
- I want what he is selling. - Ice...?
Last I had it was back when I was a child. It tastes amazing.
Please boss
I was looking for it everywhere but never got one
But look it's right here!
Boss, they add vermicelli in that ice cream
- Boss, please buy us some - Yes boss
Boss, he is right. It tastes awesome!
It's called 'Semiya ice' boss
You guys keep troubling boss, asking money every now and then
That's why he is becoming furious
Shall I buy this ice cream for everyone?
Come on, can't you see them yearning for ice cream. Buy them some
Tell him, grandpa!
You don't seem to buy.
You guys get down, I'll give it to you guys for free of cost
- Wow! Awesome! - Come on, I'll give you
- Jolly! Awesome! - I have many flavors with me
I got all the flavors
Rose milk flavor?
Wait, I'll give.
Boss, he is not giving more than one ice cream per head
Since you aren't eating, buy your quota and give that ice cream to me please
Listen, come this side
You want to slap me right? No way I'm falling for that trick
Mr. Beardo, boss is calling you
Did you call me, boss?
You want ice?
Let me go and mind my business
Let's find it out from the flower vendor
Excuse me
I need your help. Can you please come with us?
Why should I involve in your family issues?
Well, having you with us will be of great support for me
Oh, come on now
There goes my business for the day
Thanks a lot
- I'll pay for it - Okay
Excuse me!
- What's the problem? - Leave, go mind your work
You, go get me my shirt!
- Also get my cell phone - Ok
Don't you know everyone around?
Have you seen those old people anywhere?
I saw them few hours ago.
They were discussing something right here
Is it?
Do you know who they all are?
I don't know the person in white shirt
But the one in white dhoti is retired school head master
I know his house
Then that red tee shirt; he lives in the next street
I have seen him buy groceries and provisions often
I know his house too
I can't recollect his face...
Wait! Got it!
He stays in the third street
He works as a night watchman in an ATM
And I know his house too
Quick! Run fast!
Can you take me to their houses?
Come on, I'll show you
Stella aunty. Stella aunty
Father is calling you
Oh, is it?
I'm in a hurry to reach home. I'll be back in half an hour
- Tell him, I'll meet him once I'm back - Ok aunty
What could it be?
Peter...
Aunty?
I'll meet the father before going home
Ok aunty
Sir...
How can I help you, sir?
Go, buy me a kilo of egg plant and a kilo of okra!
Doesn't he know why people come to a lodge?
- We need rooms - How many of them?
- Six of us - Six?
Not more than two in a room
- Six divided by two... - Give us three rooms
How many days stay?
We'll leave in sometime
After the work is done
- Rs 1200/- is the rent - Ok
Go to second floor. I'll send the boy
- Pay and follow - Here
Here
First, remove this
Don't be in a hurry. I'll remove
What's the problem if it stays on my ear?
Stop! Stop! Shanmugam sir, this is the house
Who are you?
Aiyo! What are you doing?
Where is your father?
He is at Coimbatore
Who is the old fellow who lives here?
He is my father-in-law
Where is he now?
I don't know. Who are you all?
Dear! Come out! Save me!
I'll finish off the whole family!
How dare you threaten us at our own home?
Your dad and his friends have taken away my mom and her lover
Can't you hear me yelling here? What are you thinking?
Sir! You are upset and hence you said it wrong
Your daughter and her lover right?
Shut up! You crap useless!
It's indeed my mother and her lover!
And your father supports that atrocity!
If you don't tell me where he is now...
I'll burn down your whole family!
Didn't I give you Rs. 2000/- to fill up the car fuel tank?
Then why did the car run out of fuel?
To hell with your planning!
Everything got screwed up because of his plan
If that car hadn't stopped, things would have gone as per our plan
You don't cry See, what I am going to do now!
Why is my son calling me?
Did that 'devil' tell on me to him?
Hello
To hell with your 'Hello'
You old man! Don't call yourself my father!
We asked you to buy grocery but where are you?
Well, I'm nearby...
If you don't come home now, I'll finish you off!
Visu, I agree that I didn't buy the stuff your wife asked for...
but is this how you treat me, your father?
Stop acting!
I hear that you are helping some lovers?
That too not young couples instead old couples of your age?
Where are your friends and those lovers?
Answer me!
My darling wife was held at knife point!
I'll finish you off the moment I catch hold of you!
What happened?
Cheenu, who's on the call?
It's over!
It's all over!
What do we do now?
My son found out about us
He is threatening to finish me off
What do you mean? It's all over?
Be clear
Meenakshi's son has threatened my family
He has explained everything to my son
My son beats me up for silly complaints but now...
he is going to finish me off! It's all over!
What will I do now?
Don't you worry when we are here. We'll handle it
Are you a father?
Who is it?
Your son?
Uh-oh!
Now, my son
Don't worry.
We are all together in this
Not reachable?
We are caught red handed
Will our children forgive us if we fall at their feet and apologize?
You think they'll forgive us?
Fall at their feet and they'll throw a huge rock and...
finish us off!
What's so wrong about what we did?
I am totally confused now
Don't lose hope
Things are out of control
If we step out now, we'll get caught for sure
They'll separate them
So all my hard work has gone in vain?
Did you just say 'my?'
Well...No...
I meant all 'our' hard work has gone in vain?
Good!
If this must come to an end...
and if we must stop running...
then right now, right here...
Ramasamy must tie the knot to Meenakshi
You are right
But what about the holy thread?
Now, that's a point!
What about the holy thread?
Answer me, where will we get it from?
You go buy it
I'll definitely go
But won't return!
- Where will you go? - To heaven
Then you guys will have to buy garlands for me
You have no idea, how furious my son is with me
If he get holds of me, I'll be a goner
I won't go
We need the holy thread
But none of us can step out
God is on our side!
Someone's knocking the door. We'll send them to buy it
Super idea!
My foot!
What if it's your son at the door?
- My son? I'm a goner! - Yes
I'm gone
Where are you going?
- Not in there - It's the bath room!
Idiot! Who could it be?
Open the door and break the face
Who is it?
What do you mean 'Who?' Just open it!
Ok, looks like we are losing respect
We will open the door
Wait
Are you going to open?
- Police? - Uh-oh!
Who was the one yelling before opening the door?
Transables! Church! (Constables! Search!)
- Yes sir! - Don't shout!
- Sir? - There's only one room...
- Why both of you are going? - Duty sir!
Come here!
Yes sir
- You may go! - Ok sir
Ask them to work and they'll never do it on time
Say 'brothel' and they'll beat me to work!
Well sir...
Sir...
someone's in the bathroom
Uh-oh!
Bingo! After all our spy is the best!
Here I come darling
You've stepped into the lion's den!
Could it be a 22 year old?
I can smell the fragrance of Jasmine
Darling, your hero is here
Open the door
Open the door or else your hero will have to use the gun
What is she doing with this oldie? Wait!
There is no one else!
Why are you hiding like a young girl?
I was peeing sir
Don't get on my nerves! Hands off the door!
You filthy spy!
What's this?
Didn't you say 5 men brought a woman and are enjoying in room #206?
But it's all old grandpas here
Where is the lady?
That's her
This lady?
Sir, we don't come from such families
These two fell in love but their families don't approve of it
Hence the plan was to take them to Tirupathi temple and get married
And everything went awry on the way
Sir, try to understand our feelings
Why does he look confused?
Apply more on my head
Apply it properly!
Sir, we already rubbed four-five lemons
Not enough. My head's heated up
- What's going on? - Rub properly
Sir!
Why do you want to shout and waste energy at this age?
Sir, we didn't do anything wrong
They love each other
Please, try to understand
They have left a note at their home and eloped
Call up their home if you want to
What is it?
If Meenakshi's son comes here, he'll finish us off
This is the police station!
No one can harm or finish off anyone here
That's a nice dialogue
What's your name?
Sudhandhiram
Means Freedom and hence the rebel like attitude
He got caught
Do you have the contact number to your home?
How would Meenu know? Why ask her?
Huh? What's with the signaling?
I pity my fate!
She's got a phone!
Meenakshi, your son is going to take you back home tomorrow
Here, have this phone
Call me if you face any problems
No one must know about this phone
It must be a secret
- Eight - Eight
- Two - Constable...
Get the number and call her son
You had this phone all this while? But it never rang
It was in the vibrate mode, dear brother
Brother?
She's calling Brother
What's a 'vibrate mode?'
Have I ever spoken ill of or insulted your parents?
Why do you always find faults with my mother?
You are the root cause of this whole issue!
It's all because of only you!
I am getting ashamed at every house we are stopping by
I wonder what's more in store
Hello
Hello, sir
It's me, sir
She is my mother, sir
Grandma!
Which station?
- We found my grandma! - Just nearby
Sir, I'll be there in no time!
Get down!
- Get down! - Hold on, mom
Sir, you have paid me 2000 instead of 600
- It's ok, keep the change - Thank you, sir
Come on
Please don't lose your cool
- Just shut up and come - Come on
Hello, boss! Drop me here
Thanks boss
You go to meet sir
Ok sir
Sir...
My mother...
So, you are that granny's son?
I have seen many cases in my life...
but never a case like this one
Atrocious!
Didn't I ask you to come alone?
Why have you brought a whole town?
Sir, this is my wife
My daughter
It was his father who tried to help those couples
Hey...hey!
What's your father's name?
Sasikumar?
Antony!
Ok, who is this?
Sir, well...she is the flower vendor in my street
Why are you roaming around with her?
If I let her go then I'll have to bow down my head in shame
Why?
Will she make you buy all her flowers?
No sir
She will gossip about my family issue and everyone in the village will know about it
Then I'll lose all the respect, honor and value in the village
So she is the gossiper of your town?
You mongrel! You didn't say the same thing when you brought me
Wait and watch, I'll embarrass your family in front of whole village
Sir, she is going!
No one must move, until I order
So tell me...
who is that standing there?
Daddy...
I can't live without him
Fall at his feet!
Uncle, please consider me as your son-in-law
You love him? I'll thrash you!
This is the police station!
How dare you raise hands in front of me
No one must raise hands on anyone
Got it?
Sorry sir, my daughter?
Sorry sir, my mother?
Sir, where is that old man
Why are you shouting when I am here?
- Hey #301 - Sir?
- Take them away - Yes sir
- Move, wait in a corner - Sir, move!
Make it fast
Gayu, you better obey him
- Ask them to come - Ok sir
Do you think you're in the right age to fall in love?
I have seen parents crying in the name of missing daughter and son
This is the first time I'm seeing a son crying for his mom
Sir, his tears are false
It's all acting
Do not trust him
You old man! Who said I'm acting?
You changed my mother's mind and spoiled her, all in the name of love
What if your mother had done the same?
Shut up! You shameless
How can you even talk like that?
Phew! Guess, I'll have to find more ways to relax!
Mom...
Mom, does this all look good to you?
Excuse me, since it's all for good, Meenu called us up for help
Meenu? One punch and...
Listen...
we may appear silent but don't force us to turn violent!
Mom...
everyone's insulting me and how can you be quite?
Your mother already spoke to us
She has nothing left to talk to you
Hey!
I'm quiet because this is a police station
Or else...
I'll throw this fatso on you!
Attaboy!
See that?
See how your son is upset with you
I am indeed upset. I thought he brought some beautiful girl home
I took an off today and waited for her
I was talking to Gayu in my dreams...
I couldn't hear them speak
I waited to see who it was and I was cheated. It was after all an old lady
I slipped in amusement and hurt my head
She is my mother!
Our mother?
Is this how you raise a son?
Like you are a responsible son
Look at him, showing off!
Mom...
you raised me in the right way and how can you take a wrong path?
- Can you hear me? - No way!
Senior, what did you say?
Well, now that we are very old...
I just requested him speak out a bit loud
Mom! Who are they?
What do you call this relationship?
How will you face people after marrying him?
Won't you feel ashamed?
You are my mother! And look...
she is your granddaughter!
Isn't it disgusting?
Dear father-in-law, why did you call Gayu, disgusting?
Looks like he'll trick her and take her away with him
Darling's strong!
Mom...
may be you can live with such an embarrassment
- But I can't live such a life - Dear!
I can't live such a life
I can never ever live such a life, mom!
So, then...
go, die!
Mom, I cannot live such a life
- Shanmugam sir! - Daddy! Daddy!
- Daddy! What happened? - What happened?
- Shanmugam! - Daddy! Wake up!
Daddy, wake up! Please!
Excuse me, what happened? Get up, boss. Get up!
Go get some water! Quick!
Daddy, please wake up!
You oldies, you killed him with your words
Open your eyes and look! Please don't put me or my station in jeopardy
Quick, someone call an Ambulance
You heard him. Call the ambulance
You killed him!
- What did I do? - Shut up! You fool!
You said, police will catch me and I got caught
You told him to die and he died!
You got some sharp tongue there
Stop blaming me. Please
Please call the doctor!
Your dad is not breathing!
Please, get up dear! Wake up!
I have nobody but you
Sir, it'll become a very big issue if he dies here
You!
Stop talking nonsense!
Sir!
Blow air through his mouth
- It's hard for him to survive - What do you mean?
Sir, he is right. Blow air into his mouth
Yes sir, do it!
- He woke up - He opened his eyes
He opened his eyes.
Phew!
You are lucky or else you would've been in jail
I was really worried
What happened to you? Are you alright?
Thank God!
Mom...
Please be careful
Mom...
During childhood, you can't even bear when a thorn pricks me
You would cry like your life was on the line
When everyone here believed that I had a heart attack...
and you stood still like a statue
Thank God, I was acting
What? You were acting?
See that? He was acting!
I got really scared
What an acting?
What if I had a heart attack for real?
You would've still stood like this, isn't it?
Sir, I told you! He was acting!
Don't you get it?
Just rewind a bit and see where his hand was when he fell
You'll understand
I can't...
Why are you doing this mom?
You fool, how dare you cheat me?
- Sir please, no! - Sir, please!
Don't beat him! Leave him
Please leave him
Sir, leave him
- Leave him, sir - Beat him, sir
Hello
Listen...
an excellent news that can be published in your newspaper
It's happening live here in the station
Is it? Really?
Indeed!
If you come down, click the photos and write an article on it...
the story will get an awesome reach!
Hot news?
- Indeed - What exactly is happening there
It's something that can't be explained in words or actions
Stop confusing me with the song
You won't understand if I speak over phone
Come here, at once
But one thing.
Don't let anyone know that you're here because of me
- Drop in casually - Ok. Ok
This is the headlines in your newspaper tomorrow!
Ok. Ok.
Even the moon has a day off
But the police?
- Sir! Sir! Sir! - Stop! Stop!
- Sir! Sir! - Where are you barging in?
Please get us married, sir
- Who's this? - Another love birds
Her family is chasing us
Please unite us and safe guard us
- Poor guys - Sir, please help them
Thanks boss
You will never change!
Anjali, this is not police station...
this is a temple
Look at all the elders around us
Let's get married in their presence
You all must get us married and bless us
Listen dear brother...
Yes, tell me dear sister
Greetings, I am...
Open your mouth and I'll finish you off
Show off!
They are embarking on a new journey of life...
I was suggesting them to go to a temple and get married but...
Yeah right!
Dear sister, this is indeed like a temple
Sir, we'll get married right here
Then do one thing
First...
offer prayers to them and then bless those two...
I don't get it
They also want to get married like you
So, tell me...
does this look like a police station or lover's palace?
Rascal!
At this age?
I said what I had to. Later, I don't care in which direction your life goes
Here, in this direction
Come on, dear. We'll go to another station
Sir! Sir! Save us! Her family is chasing us! Please save us!
Crazy couples again?
How do I look? Like a police or a priest?
Sir!
You are ready to get married people who don't even know what life is all about
Then why are you thinking a lot over getting us married.
We know what life is all about
Sir, I'll take away my mother with me
Only over our dead bodies!
Then I'll finish you all off first!
We'll finish off everyone who is against their love and get them married
Where do you think you guys are?
Don't you all fear the police even a bit?
I was looking forward to you guys coming to a compromise
But you guys want to finish off each other?
Does this look like a stage play for you to act and dance?
You...
why do you need all this at this age?
You better reconcile with your son and take them home
Sir, that was spot on!
Sir, you can't decide that
It must be them!
Decision has already been made
No one can stop Ramasamy and Meenakshi's marriage
No matter what problem occurs...
Keep talking like that and I'll kill you
Cheenu?
There you go again
I am not falling for it this time
Stop showing off Cheenu. No one's going to finish you off.
Get up!
I'm not falling for it this time!
This oldie performs better than that fatso!
Cheenu? Cheenu!
Uh-oh!
Ramasamy, he really fainted because of low sugar
What do you mean?
- He isn't acting - Cheenu!
Cheenu!
Ramasamy, I'm scared!
Sir!
He isn't acting. He fainted for real
Sir!
Who is he? What happen?
Sir these guys don't behave like they are old.
They are acting
Enough of acting. No one's hitting you.
Get up!
Did you check what happened to him?
Sir, he needs something sweet. Sugar or chocolate etc
He has low sugar
Sugar? Sugar?
Sugar! Sugar!
Dear sun, don't you take human's life for granted
My brother is very pity
Can't you set after couple of hours?
Aiyo! It's getting dark
Boss, call your chief
We didn't get the old lady! Our chief will be disappointed
First, drink that sugar water
Drink
No matter what happens...
we won't stop until your marriage is over!
We will take care
So, sir...
did you get hurt in your head?
Why are you talking marriage non-sense to him
- Excuse me - Sir!
won't you ask the elders to sit?
See, he is blabbing about them getting married
We don't come from such families
These two fell in love...
They have left a note at their home and eloped
Sir, my mother...
Smoking in front of you...
won't be so respectful
Why would you do such a thing and lose yourself respect?
Isn't it disgusting?
What is disgusting?
Nothing! Don't be scared!
Nothing
Meenakshi, you have a boy baby he will take care of you as a queen
"With love I raised you teaching the right values"
"I showered you with love and affection"
"I made you successful and yet here I am, alone and desperate"
"An innocent child is lost and trapped here"
"Who will make him understand? Who will take her away?"
To hell with such sons!
Parents raise them, educate them and make them successful
They also get them married and find happiness in their children's success
But these children they find happiness by putting their parents in old age homes
Isn't that disgusting?
A mother and father compete with each other to shower love on their kids
And what do the children give them in return?
Here, ask him
Every time a woman is pregnant, she goes through pain
But a mother never complaints or even considers it as a pain
Ask her about the pain and...
she'll says it soothing!
They say it's soothing
Crazy!
We raise children without letting them know what our struggles are
But those children?
They use parents till they need them
Then guess what's the plight of the parents?
They find themselves stranded in streets or in temples or in old age homes
You don't have to take care of us like we took care of you
At least...
act like you love your parents
At least we'll die happy knowing that you love us
This is just us
You guys are lucky
Your life...
is what I yearn for at least a day
You say you'll die for him but you hardly know him
What about you grandma?
If you had supported and stood your ground for her once...
your father wouldn't have left your grandma stranded like an orphan
But what did you do instead?
You forgot your grandma
Sorry grandma!
Sorry
Forgive me
Even you forgot me
No grandma
I never forgot you
I'm sorry
At least for once if you had stop looking at her as your mother-in-law...
and considered her as your mother...
Then she wouldn't even think twice to even put her life on the line for you
But no. You didn't consider her so
Sir...
parents can take care of ten children without any hassle
But those children?
Five days in elder one's house...
Five days in younger one's house...
Do we parents appear beggar to you all?
Why should we live with such humans who are actually animals in disguise?
Ever since we had children, we are exhausted living our lives for them
So, what's wrong when we decide to live for ourselves?
You have a point
But...
now it's your mother's choice to either come with you or not
The police can't do anything
Because only those below 18 years cannot get married as per the law
But they?
As per law nothing can stop them from getting married
We cannot do anything about it
Sudhandhiram, we won!
Indeed!
Forget them, mom
Remember how much you used to praise father?
So...
your life with dad, was it all a lie?
Answer me, mom!
Was it all a lie?
Mom, I am asking you
Your life with dad, was it all a lie?
Yes!
The life I had with your father was a lie!
He lost himself to alcohol after few years of marriage.
He left me stranded with you
After that, I lived my whole life just for you
And that life...that life...
only God knows what I had been through
I didn't...
I didn't beg for money
I toiled hard, shed blood and sweat to raise you
It didn't pain when I gave birth to you
It didn't pain even when I carried you in my stomach
But...
with a son, a daughter-in-law, a granddaughter and relatives...
when I had everyone...
and yet you left me at the old age home and that pain...
Why are you fighting for me now?
Where were you when your wife insulted me?
I am diabetic...
and hence I wet the bed in sleep without my knowledge
Do you have any idea how many children are taking care of their parents very well?
Why didn't you take care of me?
What was my fault?
You scold me for asking 100 rupees for my weekly medicine...
have I ever told you the expenses I bore for raising you?
Forget all that
Without even inquiring what happened, you put me in an old age home
What is that I did or speak to hurt your wife?
It's called a family when everyone lives together
Shanmugam, don't make your mother weep like this
You will lose all the happiness in your life
Shanmugam, anyone can hate me
But how can you hate me? How can you hate me?
Ain't I your mother?
Dear mother-in-law...
all these days...
I didn't consider you as my mother
Forgive me dear mother-in-law
Mom, I am here for you!
Me, your son, I'm here for you
Forgive me and come back home, mom
Come back home, mom
Meenakshi...
Go
Go back to your son
Ramasamy
So far, we lived our lives for our children
And let's continue to live for them
Son, forgive me
You left her stranded like an orphan
A life where you have everybody yet nobody...
I know that pain
So, please forgive me
Listen Ramasamy, come on...
- Mom - Grandma
I am here for you, mom
I am there for you
Get that file and come in
Many come and leave their parents here
But those parents...
cry for couple of days and then pity their fate...
then they make peace that this is their new home and start smiling with others here
It's been a month since you are here. Why are you still crying?
Well, dear brother...
this is not my home
I want to go back to my son
I want to see him
I want to live with him
I want to be with him till I die
But didn't he forget all the sacrifice you made for him and leave you stranded?
How do you believe he will look after you?
I don't care
But I want to be with my son
Dear brother, my son is innocent
The fault is mine
Do you know why we parents are always facing difficulties?
Because no matter what mistakes our children do...
still we show off like they are the best children in the world
Hence...
till mothers like you exist...
Nope...
till parents like us exist...
nothing will change
I shall help you to get back to your son
So stop crying
We are going to start this game with these three
Anthony, rent a house right opposite to Shanmugam's house
Ok
You must set up a flower shop right opposite to this house
You must be well informed about what's happening in the neighborhood
Don't you worry. I will collect all the news and gossips in and around that village
Everything sounds good
But how about calling my son here and talking to him?
Why do we need such a master plan?
If we call him and discuss...
then again things will be back to square one in few days
Only such a plan...
will impact him and he won't let go of you
Wait and watch...
he will fall at your feet and plead you
Mom, come with me
Even he asked you to return home with me
Why are you still looking at him?
I will take care of you, mom!
Trust me, mom
Return home and I shall take care of you very well, mom
I will take care of you like my child
Trust me, mom
I will take good care of you mom
