Dad, I have received a call for an interview from Chennai...
All of a sudden?
You were saying that you wanted to start your own business, right?
Starting an own business in today's times is very difficult dad
It pains me to see you working so hard at your age
That is why I had applied for a job in a Chennai based Company.
Come on!
Did you choose not to work because of my words?
You were working pretty well in America.
Time
has turned our lives upside down.
Having not been to able to foresee this, we have played in some young lives.
Now, we have to save them.
So,
till you start earning, I will go for a job.
That's all, right?.
Jessie...
Hello everyone...
Hai
Good morning Jessie...
Great news.
We just got approved by Smith Automobiles
Trainees, tomorrow night we have a meeting at Hotel paramount.
Make Sure you are there, 7 PM sharp
Good job, guys!
Thanks
Thank you!
Hudson, Are you ready with the idea?
Not for me. I don't drink...
Don't You never drink?
No, I have never had it.
Excuse me mam, for you?
Thank you.
Hello everyone! How is everyone doing?
Our company is trying to release a new SUV model.
We are looking for some cool and innovative ideas
to attract new customers.
I know everyone knows that Smith’s cars are known for its design.
but I am thinking that we can help you
highlight this aspect of the new SUV.
Maybe, we give them fancy colours...
Different choices
We all know that today’s world is a supersonic world.
Our life has become so fast.
Alright.
And everybody wants to be ahead of others...
and this ...
kind of reflects, on our road and our driving pattern.
People who are drive on the roads
are driving amidst so much chaos.
And that’s why...
Accidents have become very common
and unavoidable.
Even if we drive carefully
we can't be sure if the driver driving ahead or behind...
will drive with the same caution.
So we need a technology,
a technology that will effectively
enable our
vehicles to communicate between each other.
A vehicle to vehicle communication technology
which will be a vital life saving technology in future.
Good idea Raghav!
This is stupid! Bullshit...
Mark that one. It's innovative. We ‘ll discuss later.
You should have a drink Raghav. Come on.
-Sorry buddy, don't force me. -Just try one!
-Ass Hole
They don’t drink. They will work all the time
They lure their bosses.
And boom, promotion!
Typical Indian mentality...
-Can you Please wait for a Minute...
Hey..what did you say? - Hey, get off of me!
What did you just say?
"You don’t drink" You lure your bosses. You work overtime and boom, you get promoted.
-What’s happening... -How can you say that?
-What do you know about Indians? -Stop... guys..
-Huh -Stop...
-We don't lure anyone! -Stop...
-We have got talent -Guys..
We have the ability, When We get an opportunity, we give our best!
Yes, I am here. I don’t care if you like it or not.
I am here to do my job!
Fuck off you piece of shit..!
Raghav... Raghav come...
-How dare he- -Stop here...
Stop there... or I will kill you... -Stop...
Hey... hey...Stay there man, I'm here.
Come...
-Leave it. -Okay...okay
He often creates problems, Let him go.
-How dare he speak like that?
Stop or I will fire you if you say anymore thing. You are representing the company...
You are new to this country.
Try not to get into fights with anyone.
Why are you reacting so emotionally?
Yes you’re right. I am here for work.
But for that, I don’t have to compromise my self-respect...
...character and integrity as an Indian.
I need to use the rest room. I'll catch up with you.
- Hey, I will meet you in the car.
-Hey shall we start?
-Hey.What?
What?
Nothing!
I didn't see anything.
Listen I am here for work, I don't care what you guys do!
I don't want any trouble.
Yes.
No. I don't want any trouble.
-Yeah
Fuck off
Lets go.
What?
Those guys...
They brutally attacked someone..
probably an Indian
In the washroom...
I am so sorry you had to see that.
It probably was a hate crime unfortunately...
I just couldn’t wrap my head around this...
what is their problem with Indians?
I don’t think they have a problem with Indians...
I just feel like for centuries
Minorities have been discriminated against.
There are lots of people who are angry that their opportunities and jobs
have been taken from them.
And that issue has been leading to hate crimes...
I am so sorry!
Discrimination...
Racism... skin color...
What not?
What exactly Gandhi had to go through...
And nothing has changed...
We still live in a dark age...
Hello guys...
Hi...
We had a client meeting last week with Smith Automobiles, right?
I have some very important news regarding that...
I just got a confirmation
Raghav’s idea has been approved for our new project with Smith Automobiles.
Wooo... wow.. super dude
You guys who can join us with contributing to the project
I have one more good news.. Raghav has been promoted to Team leader.
Oh.. Thank you. thank you so much... thank you...
Congrats Buddy! -Thank you.
Thank you.
Break a leg, Raghav!
Thank you.
Thank you so much. we are a team.
Congrats Man,
Well-done...
Thank you.
feeling very happy, my son.
They just informed you, is it? -Yes dad... they just did.
Give the phone to mom pls..
Truly happy, my son...
Keep praying to our family Deity often.
Don’t worry mom. I am fine here...
Take care of dad and younger sister.
-Sure Raghav
Where is sister, the naughty one? -Brother, Congratulations! Thank you
How are you Brother? - Ah, I am Okay! Thank you!
Study well. -Ok... I'll study well...
Dear,... -Yes dad.
Then...
You were telling about helping with the studies of underprivileged students, right?
I have selected two students for this year.
Both of them are college going students.
BSc. – First Year
Our Annamalai uncle’s younger brother’s children.
They earlier had a shop in town,
It went for a loss and they have now returned to the village.
For the next three years, we should take care of their educational expenses.
I have shared the details with you. Check it out...
OK dad!
oh...
Sorry ma'am! I was just informing my parents about the promotion
I have told you several times to call me Jessie...
And there is no need to apologize
Family is extremely Important.
When you are done, meet me at my office
I would like to speak with you...
Sure ma'am..
-Jessie
Don't act smart man, shut the f*** up, until you leave this country else you are a dead meat.
Why don’t you drink?
It’s like you know here,
everyone drinks. That’s just...
a way we bond and communicate.
I noticed that you haven’t drunken anything...
I didn't come here to have fun
Back home in my village
people are struggling for their basic needs
they don’t have means even to get their education.
From my childhood, my dad has been telling me
That my focus has to be on working hard
and give back the part of money that I make...
to the people in need.
So...That is where my focus is
That is why I am not interested in
fun things like
drinking or dating
I don’t want any distractions here
Not that I don’t have fun at all, I have my own way of having fun.
Walking side by side with my dad,
scent of my mom’s saree,
Taking a bite of my favourite candy from my sister,
playing in the stream with my friends,
Taking a ride in the local bus,
Looking at my childhood crush
from a safe distance
watching my favorite director’s movie first day first show ...
reading my favorite
books again and again
These things give me a high.
And no drink will ever give that high to me
That’s amazing,
I am so proud of you.
What better way to fall in love than in India
You are such a good soul...
Don’t ever change...
Thank you Ma'am...
Call me Jessie..
Okay....
Jessie...
Finally! (Laughs)
We are proud to announce the first rank and gold medalist of the outgoing batches,
“Mr. Nithesh Gupta”
-Congrats bro!
Mom and dad too could have been here
but anyways bro, all thanks to you.
Without your help this wouldn't have been possible
This... belongs to you.
thank you so much
Go home, to your mom and dad.
Things would have changed there now.
I too wanted that....
To show the certificates and my gold medal to my father...
To fall on his feet for forgiving.
I am sorry dad
I have made a mistake
It’s been a long time since I met mother and sister.
This is my dad's native village.
Where my father was born and brought up.
School, college, marriage...
It's from here he went to serve the country.
During our childhood Mom,Neha and me visit here often during our summer vacations.
Every time without fail!
Then I went to college and Neha had tuitions
college trips!
Mom and dad also had great tensions to deal with in the city
We had all the reasons in the world not to come here!
Now I'm coming here back again with a disgrace.
I hope my beloved village,
My family...they'll accept me back again.
Ma...
Mom, please... Let me meet dad once.
I want to show him my degree and medal.
I promise, I will leave then.
Son, last week there were some people came to see Neha for match fixing
But they got to know about you and became upset
...They stopped the talks and left the place.
Your dad is very angry after that
After that he is not even talking to us properly.
This is not the right time.
Get a job first, work hard...
and give it sometime son.
After that we will try to convince him.
(Struggling noises)
How dare you Rascal?
Are you trying to kill me ?
You've already committed a mistake.
Haven't you learnt from that? You're making a mistake again, huh?
watch out, in the next station, the police will drag you out
One tea...
One minute. Nithesh.
No.
You leave.
You look angry.
Yes madam. I am angry.
Right now, I am thinking of killing you.
Why did you do like that Madam?
If I have done a mistake, punish me.
Take me to court.
But why did you release that video on social media ma’am?
I have only one request madam
Don’t show any of the accused face to the society just like that.
If they turn out be innocent...
will you be able to erase their video off the internet?
You just showed my face madam.
But you don't know what has happened to my family after that.
This face has closed all the doors for me.
Closed all the doors.
Looks like you have reached the pits of your guilt.
I can understand that you are repenting much for your mistakes.
But police department, cannot keep hiding the criminals from the society, right?
Come on... I don’t have any enmity towards you .
But being a police, we will put all our efforts
to stop the crimes even before happening.
You are looking at this just from the eyes of your family.
But by showing the face of the criminals...
we are protecting the society from these criminals.
And from these acts, people will start having faith
in the police and the judiciary system.
Hope you understand all this.
All the best for your future!
Oh this is such a nice colour. I love this Saree
You look good in saree.
Thank you.
- Add the roasted cashews.
- How much time do you need, Raghav?
Yeah, Now stir it well. It should not get charred.
Look, you've forgotten the Sāmbhar(Gravy)
Sāmbhar(Gravy) is ready mom...
In your palm, pour a little in your palm and lick and see...
-Too hot mom... -Nothing will happen!
-M... m... its good mom... -Raghav what are you doing?
just tasting it...
-Can I try, Can I taste it?
Do you want to try... ok... give me the phone...
It is hot...
oh my God, it tastes so good....
oh... you like it...
-I like it a lot! -I ve passed mom ..
I have passed in cooking sambar(Gravy)....
I will call you after they complete their lunch...
Ok... but... -Bye... bye... will call you later...
Wait... wait...
Pongal oh Pongal... Pongal oh Pongal... Pongal oh Pongal...
That was nice...
Food is so good... Raghav made it...
Thank you...
Hey Raghav, seems like they are enjoying it man?
Yeah why not? But that would be expensive for you.
Hi son... -Hi mom, wats up?...
Did you all have your food? What were peoples' comments on the food?
They all liked the food. They ate well.
that's not surprising. Wasn't it me who cooked?.
Oh... The next time you ask for help, I'll give it back.
one of my Friend wants to say "Hi..."
Hi mom!
Hey... Brother...
Who is she...
Hey!
Hello! How are you?
She is asking you only mom.
Raghav...
What can I speak to her... ?
Dear! Did you like the food...?
Food... food... how is food.. -She is asking how is food. Did you like it?
It was good... and we ate well. (She says in Tamil)
She's speaking in Tamil!
(sarcastically) Yeah, it came from the interest of learning Tamil.
Is it that big a deal to say "it was good" in Tamil?
Look at my saree... Do you like it?
She is asking about her saree...
aaah...Dear, you look like our village goddess "Vekkaliyamman", in this saree"
What is she saying?
She says “you look like our village goddess in this saree.”
Oh! Thank you... I appreciate that so much mom...
Ok mom... I am at a friend's place. We need to leave from here... I will call you in the morning.
Bye brother. -Sure will call you in the morning...
Wait... wait...
- was planning on sharing so many things... Always cuts the call midway. I have been awake since 5:00 a.m. for this.
I liked Obama!
Why? Any reason?
Nothing specific.
He came across as a noble and an apt person for that role.
Mmm... Here the system is very different right?
even if he was a fine person
and had done good things for the country...
one can serve only two terms . Not beyond that...
It is not the same in our country.
Are they good?, are they doing good things for the country?.. those things don't matter
Leaders are people who come from the same lineage.
They will win elections and come into power repeatedly..
This will create a big problems for people
In politics, everyone should get a chance to serve.
If the concept of a single party continues, there will be higher chances for corruption
That is why they are not allowed to stand for elections more than twice
Now Trump has come, Let's see!
One minute Sir... -Yeah...
Son... Premi has come. Talk to her.
Who is that, dad ? -I had told you earlier, right?
About the girl in our village...
who wants to study to become a doctor
Oh... -It is her. ...Talk to her.
Talk... -OK...
Hello brother! - Hello Dear!
Are you doing well brother?
I am good
tell me...
Brother...
Brother... My wish is to become a doctor and to serve our village
I have got an opportunity for that now.
I have passed the NEET exam
But I have got a seat only in a private college.
The fees is a bit high there
We won't be able to pay that much brother!
If you help me study,
I am sure, I will become a Doctor...
I swear I am not wanting to become a doctor just to make money.
it is only to provide medical service for the people in our village
Brother... Will you help me?
I surely will, dear.
I will definitely help you
You are our village’s first doctor
From now on,
you are Dr. Premi!
"Doctor Premi", Come on, say it.
Doctor Premi...
I will give the phone to your father... -Yes...
Ok bye...
Ok dad...
Sharmi
Prem..
Kapil...
Prathap...
Biju...
and Poornima...
This is my team...
What do you think you are doing man?
This is completely biassed. You are a racist.
Are we fools to stay quiet?
Raghav, what have you done?
Where is the diversity
I told you to keep the balance...
Come to my office now...
This place is being dominated by Indians.
You guys are all going to be in trouble if you join him.
Everyday we are losing our rights.
Let me see how he is going to deliver this project.
Yes, come in.
After our meeting the other day,
I had sent out an email to everyone in the office.
asking them to write to me
About their interest in working with me.
And to share their ideas for the development of this project.
Only the people I have selected in the team...
had replied.
no one else did.
So naturally I thought
the others are not interested in working with me.
What else would you want me to do?
Oh! Can you forward me this email?
I would like to take appropriate action...
I will do that...
Come in guys.
Yes ma'am.
Raghav has just sent me the email asking you guys to join the team
You two didn’t respond.
So, you can't blame him.
I will be taking this up with senior management.
You still support those Indians?
No.....
I am supporting the facts.
I am supporting sincere workers.
I am not supporting groupism.
We all work for this company.
Get out...
you'll face a lot of problems.
I am sorry Raghav...
Why are you helping an Indian? -I'm not helping
I am not helping anybody. -When our people are suffering,
-why are you supporting immigrants? -I am not helping ...
Tell me
Let me go... I am not hiding ...
(Fighting and Crying sounds)
-No, You should believe me...What -
Fuck you!
Who are they...
Just some ignorant people who are mad at me...
For what?
They are upset...
They think that I am supporting the Indians...
I think we should go to my place...
What? -I think we should go to my place...
Okay...
This is my house...
come in...
You got a nice house...
Thank you...
Hate crimes have been raising against Indians.
What happened today will not go well with that group.
I am sure they are going to get more people from their gang and
it’s just not safe for you.
I think you should just stay at my place for a while...
Hey...
What’s up...
I am going to approve one-week medical leave for you.
For what?
Because, you don’t know what those people are capable of.
It is best that you stay safe. You should stay with me.
They know where you live. That’s why I brought you here...please
