I've been a teacher for 25 years.
I've earned the highest honor as a teacher.
I've created many doctors and engineers.
A good teacher is equivalent to a thousand priests.
I have always strived…
to be an honest cop.
I've never accepted a bribe in my life.
The phones haven't been working for the past two hours.
The service providers are perplexed. They are trying to solve it.
I'm sure that this isn't an accident.
But I don't understand why anyone would do it.
They've messed up every single phone in the city.
What's wrong with the system?
I just made an international call.
-Try again. -Are you sure?
The phone's working again.
It's a problem if it works and a problem if it doesn't.
Tell me.
What?
Who?
My son?
Who told you?
Stop blabbering!
Sala just told me that our son has murdered two people.
It's a lie.
Right, how can he murder someone!
Not two…
he's murdered four people.
What?!
Get me some coffee.
Kannabiran? That's impossible!
He's not a killer.
Hello?
Apparently, it's five.
What's going on?
Add a bit more jaggery to the coffee.
I'll believe you if you tell me that the petrol prices have fallen.
But this is rubbish!
-Hurry! Get to the spot immediately! -Yes, sir.
This place was like a temple.
These doors hadn't been closed for the past 25 years.
They locked it,
extinguished the lamp that had been burning eternally for 25 years!
How can he spare them?
Let him do it.
Sir, he has killed a police officer.
-It's the seventh murder. -What are you saying?
My son has killed seven people?!
What are you doing?
Sir, one of the victims is a teacher.
He was an award-winning teacher.
A cop, an engineer, and an IT professional.
He's done this after he was released from jail.
Kannabiran has done this?! I don't believe it.
He wanted to be a scientist.
I wanted him to be something else.
But time and God had other plans for him.
Karuppiah, let's go.
I am not coming, Rayar. I will take care of the house.
Okay.
Kanna!
What have you done?
I prayed to the Lord for seven years for your birth!
How could you do this?
I didn't commit a crime, Mom.
It was just a cleanup.
A FEW MONTHS AGO…
Raja Singa Mangalam.
In the north, we have Vadanadu.
VADANADU
In the south, we have Thennadu.
THENNADU
The people from both these regions used to live together like one big family.
It is said that Goddess Sakthi was born in Vadanadu,
and God Siva was born in Thennadu.
Lord Siva and Goddess Sakthi are brought to Thennadu in a chariot
for a festival called "Celebrating Women" for three days every year.
All the women from Thennadu
who moved to Vadanadu after marriage are invited to this festival.
They celebrate this festival with great joy.
It's called "Celebrating women."
We have grand feasts on those three days.
We have gatherings where their problems or family issues
are discussed and resolved.
In Thennadu, the birth of a girl child is celebrated with great joy.
This is the tree-planting ceremony.
Every time a girl child is born in this region,
they plant 111 saplings.
Eleven of these are palm trees.
By the time the girl turns 21,
the trees and the region prosper and yield wealth.
The girls who were once thought to be a burden,
now parade the streets like fairies.
In Thennadu, the birth of a girl is a celebration,
and so is her wedding.
They wilt in pain if anything happens to their girl child.
One day, a girl from Thennadu hung herself
from the tree that she had fondly nurtured
after she had a fight with her husband.
This led to chaos and tension between the two regions.
Oh, God!
No marriage alliances have happened between these two regions ever since.
Now, if someone hits a girl, or someone from her family…
Brother, they hit our groom!
Hey!
Rise above, rise above Let the deprivation be wiped out
Come, brother Come up, brother
Change, change, everything should change With love, we should unite
Come, brother Climb high, brother
The rock that does not shatter Will never make way for a path
The wood that does not burn Will not put off the hunger
A path for us
Is definitely something that we need
Give what you have
And that's a different kind of high
Come, brother Come up, brother
Come, brother Climb high, brother
Rise above, rise above Let the deprivation be wiped out
By being patient Don't you become a victim
No need
As you ignite You should rise above the flames
All by yourself
Crushing and controlling To rule you
You should curtail If someone tries to avenge you
To give in abundance To finish the task
To learn something new You should live
With the one who flashes like a spear Do you need to compete
A crowd that is always ready is with you
A path for us
Is definitely something that we need
Give what you have
And that's a different kind of high
Come, brother Come up, brother
Come, brother Climb high, brother
Rise above, rise above Let the deprivation be wiped out
A path for us
Is definitely something that we need
Give what you have
And that's a different kind of high
Come, brother Come up, brother
Come, brother Climb high, brother
VADANADU
Shoot me.
Just shoot me.
Not just me…
no one can stop you.
The minister, the judge, the collector, the SP…
they're all here to congratulate you.
You have power, wealth, and fame.
You're a great lobbyist.
Getting a phone call from the CM shouldn't be a big deal for you.
For me, it's more important…
to get birthday wishes from you.
Wish me, darling.
One day, you are going to regret this. Mark my words.
Happy birthday.
Goodbye, my wife.
Thank you, Dad.
-Inba! -Inba!
-Happy birthday, my son-in-law. -Thank you, my father-in-law.
Where's Sameera?
She wished me first, but she had to leave.
Did you have food?
Sit down.
THENNADU
Kosala!
-Will you have something? -Sure. Wait.
Where's your son?
He's reading a novel. Kuttra Parambarai.
He's on the last chapter. Apparently, the climax is thrilling.
It's alright. Call him.
He won't let him read a novel in peace!
My dear, your father is waiting for you.
He's fallen asleep while reading.
Just wake him up!
I won't wake him up.
He must be hungry, dear.
Come and eat--
Where is he?
What? He isn't in his room?!
Are you sure?
My eyesight seems to have become weak.
My dear!
It looked like he was sleeping on his bed.
Where did he go?
My dear!
Your father is waiting for you!
There's a cultural program in the neighboring town.
I think that's where he's gone.
Where are you off to?
To the cultural program!
"You can't go there."
"I need to go there, Mom."
"Your dad will scold you."
"Please handle him, Mom."
"No, please don't."
"We will handle it, Mom."
"Don't put me on the spot."
"It's okay, Mom."
"It's okay."
"Hey, drink water."
He's a great dancer!
Partner in crime!
Let him have fun for a day.
We don't get along with the people of that town.
Why did he go there?
He said he won't say a word. He'll just be a mute spectator.
Who? Your son?
Call him back immediately.
He didn't answer the call.
He'll answer it if you call him.
Put him on speakerphone.
You've become a cynical man.
Mother is the greatest gift on earth
She's a goddess
"Even God becomes humble in front of father's love."
I had told him to set this song about father's love as his caller tune.
He didn't answer the call.
My gut tells me that there is something wrong.
Move!
Sir, welcome.
Move.
Get the chair.
Buddy, come here.
-Hey. -Yes?
It's an important call. The music's too loud.
Hey, move!
Move!
Hey, stop the song!
Tell me.
The driver's mother says that her son didn't elope.
He's been framed.
She's going to the collector's office to file a complaint.
Where is she?
Play the song!
What's the point? His wife eloped with the driver.
I left my keys in the car, dear.
Wait a minute.
-Brother! Hey, dancer! -Yes?
My name is Avani Soolamani.
-What did you say? Soori? -No, not Soori.
-Soolamani. -Okay.
I was so excited to go in there,
-I left my keys inside the car. -Oh.
-If you could lend me the bike-- -Do you have spare keys at home?
Yes, my niece has them.
All the boys are busy. No one's willing to fetch it for me.
-If you could… -I can't.
-Let's go, they are playing the song. -Listen.
No one needs to go anywhere. We can unlock the car.
-Call her. -How can we unlock the car?
Hello, dear. I am with a guy right now.
He says that he can unlock the car.
Who is that crazy fellow?
How can he open it without the keys?
Ask her to video-call us!
-Video call? -Yes!
-Code word 1040. -Hey!
It's 2240.
Are these guys ATM thieves?
She's here.
Hello. Wait, I'll give him the phone.
-Here. -Baby?
I am not Baby.
Aadhini.
I am the crazy fellow.
Can we check if I am crazy?
How?
How to open the door?
Look at that!
You'll scare her.
Do you have the key?
Got it? Hey, hold this.
Take the key, place it below the phone, and press it.
Do it when I tell you. Okay?
Yeah.
Alright, press it now.
Press it.
Press--
Press it properly.
-Do it right. -Don't break it.
Is it okay now?
Are you placing and pressing it correctly?
Forget it. I will push the car.
Hey.
Both of us need to work smartly for this to work.
But your niece doesn't seem to be smart.
Hey. Are you crazy? How dare you say that!
Good.
But how?
Am I crazy?
No, you're a scientist.
You are not bad either.
-Okay. That's enough. -Good night.
I guess I kick-started something here.
Please leave.
-Soola… -Yes, leave.
-We'll leave, bro. -Have fun!
Who's calling at this hour?
-Hello, Mom. -My dear, did you drink water?
-I did. -Did you urinate?
Mom, stop it.
You need to drink lots of water.
It will dissolve kidney stones.
They dissolved six months ago!
Hey, your father knows that you went to the cultural program.
-How? Oh, no. -He saw the CCTV footage.
Be careful.
I'm hiding from the cameras as I speak.
Oh, no. Your father caught me.
Try and save the situation.
Why are you being so dramatic?
You were late.
Yes, we missed about seven or eight songs.
I left after the first two songs.
It's too obscene. It'll make you angry.
-Come back. -Fine.
It's okay, right?
Uncle, why aren't you asleep yet?
How can I sleep?
My daughter eloped with the driver.
She must be caught.
I want to ask her what was wrong with my upbringing.
I want to shoot her with my hands.
Sorry.
Uncle.
Please!
Go and get some sleep.
We stopped celebrating the "Celebrating Women" festival
after Valarmathi hung herself.
The women who moved to other towns after marriage want to know
what's their fault and why we aren't celebrating it anymore.
Shouldn't we invite them and ask them about their well-being?
Minister, ask him to accept that he was the one who murdered her.
We won't convict him.
You just need to accept it. That's it.
How can we accept a crime that we didn't commit?
So, what's the conclusion?
What conclusion?!
Hereafter, we won't get our girls married to boys from their region.
Good!
You won't get a single vote from our region!
Hey!
You should watch your mouth!
-Ask them! -Stop.
Don't interrupt elders when they're talking!
Kannabiran!
This discussion is pointless!
Can you put him behind bars?
Is there anything that we can't do?
What are you waiting for?
Go, wear your coat!
We must adhere to the rules if we conduct the festival.
What should we do?
We can explain the significance of this festival to the collector.
He'll understand it.
Usually, we go to our region's boundary and hand over the chariot to them.
We'll tell them it can't be done this year.
We can say that we can't send Sivan.
But how can we tell them that we can't send Sakthi? She was born there.
Their function is to honor their daughters and sons-in-law.
And Sivan and Sakthi are the first couple.
They won't agree.
We'll make them.
Son-in-law…
your region must win.
Did you see that?
Our teacher seems to be raking it in these days.
What are you studying? Look at the grandeur.
-Hi. -Hey, Malar!
You're here with your gang! The professor must've invited you all!
I'll go and wish him.
Happy birthday.
Hey, Kanna.
Smile, please.
Oh, God!
-Hey! Are you leaving? -How are you?
-Where's your dad? -He'll come later.
See you.
Mom…
the keys are in your hand.
Place it correctly and press it.
There are no buttons on this key.
-It's a normal key. -Connect it to the bottom!
Hey, that's the charging port.
Hello!
What are you doing?
Why?
I misplaced the key. The spare key is at home.
So, we're trying to open it with the help of 4G.
Which crazy fellow gave you this idea?
We've unlocked a four-wheeler with the same idea.
This is a two-wheeler.
It's a crazy idea.
Hey, crazy fellow. Aren't you the one who gave me this idea?
You were acting as if you did not know who we are.
I didn't know for sure if I knew you guys.
I couldn't see your face clearly the other day.
Really?
You can't unlock it like that.
Two-wheelers cannot be unlocked like that.
-Right. -These are the types of rumors
that go viral on social media.
There's a sensor in the cars. Do you have a sensor on your bike?
How can we unlock it?
-Thinking. -Code 0810.
It's 2010.
Oh, no! Why did you break it?
-My parents will kill me! -Don't you want to go home?
-Move. -It's getting late.
-"0908." -Hey!
It's 2108.
-Hold it. -It's ruined!
-It's just a job of cutting and pasting. -Oh, no.
Ready.
Just fixing.
Let's try it.
You broke the lock and cut off the wire. What should I say to my folks?
Don't you want to go home? Come on--
Aadhini, is there a problem?
-No. They are helping us. -Friend?
Bodyguard?
Love.
-Love?! -Hey, shut up.
He's in love.
Not you, right?
Can't you keep quiet?
You should watch your mouth!
-It's ready. You may leave. -Start it.
-Shall we leave? -Yes.
-Leave. -Wait! Won't you thank me?
You should apologize.
Oh, sorry.
-You think one sorry is sufficient? -Very… sorry.
Hey, stop it!
-Guys, leave! I said, leave! -Okay, bro.
-Leave. Why are you doing this? -Good night!
VADANADU
-Welcome, brother. -Sister!
-How are you? -I am fine.
-You should definitely come. -Oh.
-It's a special celebration. -Okay.
-Bless me. -God bless you.
I am 80 years old.
My husband passed away 16 years ago.
Our land has always given my family and me a sense of pride ever since I was married.
Apparently, the people of Vadanadu want to create problems. Be careful.
You should come to the celebration.
When is your second daughter getting married?
We will plan it after the celebration.
Please let me go!
My father will kill me if he finds out.
A. R. KANNABIRAN
Aadhini, the guy who fixed the bike yesterday…
has dropped his visiting card.
I think we should call him.
We need to know the category he has placed us in.
I can't get through to him.
Hey. The number has nine digits. The last digit is missing.
Damn you, Mr. Lawyer!
Okay.
The last digit must be between zero and nine.
That's all.
-Hello. -Is it Kannabiran?
Jinnah. Mohammad Ali Jinnah.
Hello.
Oh, God.
This is Muthattha. Who is it?
Why are you so eager to talk to him?
Why would I be eager? Is he Lord Muruga?
-Hello. -Kannabiran?
Yeah, tell me. I am his father.
-It was his father. -Strange!
-Kannabiran? -I am his mother. Who's this?
Client?
It was his mother.
Hey…
what's going on?
There's a lot going on.
-You should definitely come. -We will be there.
-Do come. -Sure.
Hello.
A. R. Kannabiran, MA, BL.
-Criminal lawyer! -A lawyer for criminals.
Who is it?
Why did you leave your visiting card behind?
Who are you, ma'am?
Do you remember last night?
Last night…
I helped a few girls.
You…
Is helping girls your profession?
Oh, it's you! From the Vivekananda Cross Street!
-How are you? -Hello.
I am the one you met at the birthday party.
Aadhini.
Outside the hotel?
Are you the one who was riding the bike?
I am the one who was sitting behind.
Sorry, I gave the card to the girl who was riding the bike.
Put her on the line.
Hello. Yes, tell me. Why did you leave your card?
So that you could call me if you face a problem when you ride it.
But you're questioning my character.
What? You thought you could help us by giving us a nine-digit number?
My friend was trying really hard to reach you--
Quiet! Shut up!
Why were you trying so hard?
Are you the one who rode the bike or the one who sat behind?
I am the one who rode it.
Sorry, sister.
I left the card to speak to the girl who was sitting behind.
Give her the phone.
-Tell him I don't like to talk. -I know that I'm on the speakerphone.
I like to talk to you.
You're being cocky because we're talking on the phone.
Can you say the same in person?
I can do that.
Tell me when and where, and I will be there.
I will let you know when I feel like it.
Do tell me. I'm in your town.
We're here to invite people to the "Celebrating Women" festival.
Your mother was born in our town.
-Shall I come home? -Home?
-Yes. -He says he'll come home.
Let's go.
-You should definitely come. -Okay.
-Careful. -Please sit.
I will be there.
They look like they've come here to look for a bride.
Might be. Could be.
Where is the girl?
She might be behind some pillar.
The people here are saying this event won't take place.
But you've come here to invite us.
We will come if it happens.
Your daughter seems to be a devotee of Lord Muruga.
-Yes. -That's the reason your house is filled
with Lord Muruga's pictures.
So, she is the client.
Uncle.
Son-in-law.
Have the police managed to trace them?
They have.
I don't know what to tell you.
Their phone signals were traced till they got to Maharashtra.
After that…
they have…
destroyed their sim cards.
Maharashtra?!
I'm really scared, Dad!
Please ask Kanna to help us!
Dad…
Dad!
MAY THE SOULS OF KAVERINANDAN, PORKODI, AND MALAR REST IN PEACE
Dad.
-Dad! -Malar!
Malar, what have you done?
The whole family is dead!
What made him do this?
-Was he deeply in debt? -No.
His daughter was in a relationship with someone.
The girl had to undergo a couple of abortions.
They had to do some settlements.
What are you saying?
SUCCESS IS A MINDSET
LIVE LIFE ON YOUR OWN TERMS
Kanna!
Dad was not weakhearted. I'm sure he didn't do this.
Someone has killed him.
After Dad, it was Uncle who used to always come forward to do anything
for the people of this soil.
We didn't conduct the "Celebrating Women" festival…
because of the death of his entire family.
Your girl has eloped with her lover.
-We're sure. -No, sir!
We traced their phones. Their last known location was Maharashtra.
We couldn't trace their phones after they reached Maharashtra.
They have absconded after destroying their sim cards.
The postmortem report clearly says…
that the family has committed suicide.
The girl was fooling around and having abortions.
-Sir… -Hey!
Mind your language!
Scoundrels like you…
Hello!
-Let's go. -Hey! White shirt! Lawyer!
Brother, I need to talk to you in private.
She didn't tell you anything?
Any lover?
But she had many aspirations.
-Lawyer sir. -Yes?
Hey! What a surprise!
Come.
Just one minute.
-Fine. I will let you know. -Okay, sir.
-Do you have the Kavalan SOS app? -What's that?
Kavalan SOS app has been launched by the police department.
I will install it for you.
Just keep it on the home screen for your safety.
In case of an emergency, just press it once.
It will alert the police control room and an important member of your family.
This is more important than TikTok or Instagram.
-Okay. -Here.
-Be safe. -Sure. Bye.
Bye.
-Please come. -Won't you install it for us?
The app was launched a long time ago. Give me your phone.
What's that girl's problem?
I can't tell you. It's private.
Yeah.
My first gift.
-Thank you. -What's this?
You'll only do it for her?! And what about me?
I've downloaded the SOS app for many girls--
I mean… sisters.
I've downloaded the SOS app for many sisters.
Just a minute. It's Mom.
-Mom. -Son, did you eat?
-Not yet. -Why?
Did you drink water?
-Yes. -Did you urinate?
Oh, God.
Mom. I will talk to you later.
Okay. Miss you.
Miss you too.
-Done. -Thanks.
You talk about various apps. You seem to love technology.
But your phone seems to be broken.
What?
-I heard your mom asking you if you uri-- -Oh, no. That's nothing.
Oh, God! Why…
Well, my mother loves blabbering. You'll find out when you talk to her.
When are you taking me home?
First, I need to tell my mother about you. I'll do it soon.
This is my gift.
Keep it on the table. It will look nice.
Thank you.
What's this?
Your visiting card with a ten-digit phone number.
That's nice.
Okay. Bye.
Hey, please have something.
Yeah, I am hungry.
We'll have lunch together only after we're engaged.
Really?
Handsome
My heart melts As I look at you closely
My heart melts When you talk with such charm
Can I give you The nectar-like fruit to eat
As I change to have this endless chatter?
If you allow me
I'll shelter you in my hand
Not just one or two I will give you countless joys
My day becomes divine because of you
My heart melts As I look at you closely
My heart melts When you talk with such charm
Master
Handsome
The one who strikes the sword
Should I hide you In my heart and lie still?
Should you twine me
Intertwined fingers And stay in admiration every day
From head to toe, you attract me
We plant the gentle kiss Why, my dear!
To unleash the sixty coordinating arts
Is your floral lap there?
I will be an epic poetry
My dear, come to me
Let's drown in the ocean of love
My heart melts As I look at you closely
My heart melts When you talk with such charm
Can I give you The nectar-like fruit to eat
As I change to have this endless chatter?
If you allow me
I'll shelter you in my hand
-Not just one or two -Not just one or two
-I will give you countless joys -I will give you countless joys
-My day becomes divine because of you -My day becomes divine because of you
Master
My heart melts
Have you seen this girl?
No.
-This girl? -Sorry, sir.
-We haven't seen her. -We haven't seen her.
Kanna, wait a minute.
Hey, can you help me wear a sari? I have to attend a reception.
Sari…
I don't know how to drape a sari.
Thanks, Mom.
-Ask her if she knows how to cook. -Hello.
You know how to cook, right?
-I only know how to eat. -What--
-It's okay. -It's okay.
-Kanna, listen. -Yeah?
Buy four-five expensive suits and gift them to me as a surprise.
Okay?
-Why four or five? -I have never gotten her anything.
Buy her a couple of suits! Why does she need so many?
-It's okay! -This is too much!
I can't hear you. Hello.
Yes, tell me. I can hear you.
Is it strange that I am asking you to get me a gift?
-No-- -Of course!
-Hey, give me that. -Oh, no. Sorry.
What are you doing?
Oh, no. I forgot to eat panipuri.
Excuse me. Give me two plates of panipuri, please.
She's so cute.
What?
Do you have cash?
Aadhini.
I donated all the cash I had at the temple.
I looked at my wallet right now and it's almost empty.
Can you send me some cash?
I didn't repay you that day, right? Let me Google Pay you.
Okay, you do that. I'll order another plate of panipuri.
Brother, one more.
She was fasting, that's the reason she is hungry.
Aadhini, do you go to the temple every day?
Yes, I just stepped out of the Murugan temple.
Their pongal was delicious.
I love the food they serve at the temple.
I always stand in the queue and ask for two servings.
Is there a temple near your house?
-Yes, there is! -Mom, stop it!
-Give it to me! -Listen. Don't tell anyone about it.
It's a secret.
No one knows about it.
I got the money.
Thank you.
-Bye! -Bye.
-Mom! -Give it to me!
-Dad-- -Do you want to see the girl's photo?
-She's from Vadanadu! -Yes.
She's nice, right?
In this case, your taste is a bit poor.
It's mediocre.
But if you like her, it's fine.
What's mediocre for me is super for you.
And what's super for me is mediocre for you.
What's he saying?
-He's calling me mediocre. -Hey!
This is the only time you're right about your mother.
The problem is…
there have been no marriage alliances
between the two regions for the past two years.
If we talk about one now, it will lead to a big problem.
What can we do?
What if we say that it's an arranged marriage?
What an idea!
-Right? -But who's going to lead the discussion?
Karuppiah will do it. He's good at lying.
-What? -I meant, laying the path.
Homophones can be confusing.
Oh!
-You want me to be a broker. -No, bro.
We want you to be the peacemaker between the two regions.
VADANADU PULLIMAN KOMBAI
My Lord Muruga.
-Welcome. -Hello, dear.
How are you?
I was told that my niece makes fantastic instant coffee.
I just came here for a cup of coffee.
-Make a cup of coffee. -Who? My daughter?
You're being oddly sweet today. What is the reason?
Well, you might get mad when I tell you why I'm here.
Look, his face has started changing!
Yeah. He's looking like a monkey who has eaten ginger.
-You tell us. -Yeah, right.
The people from Thennadu dumped you on me like a sack of coconuts!
-What? -Hey!
-You know our head Adhirayar, right? -Yes.
His son, Kannabiran…
-The lawyer? -Yes.
He wants his son to marry your daughter.
We checked the list of the girls from this town.
Your girl is in the Top 10.
-Oh, really? -Yeah.
Can you guess the rank of your girl on the Top 10 list?
Maybe ninth.
Number one!
Really?
Talk about fate!
Even sawdust can pass for sugar in a town with no sugar.
He saw your daughter in person.
There have been no marriage alliances between our towns for the past two years.
Let's break that tradition!
-Break the rules. -Yes!
Do you want the people to ostracize us? Keep quiet!
Some people might be jealous,
but most of the people in town will be happy.
Dad, I don't want to marry anyone right now.
I will finish my medical course first.
And marrying a stranger from Thennadu…
-Wow! -You always come up with these excuses!
If you don't marry him, you will end up with some boy from our town!
It's a wonderful family.
It's a blessing that they are approaching us.
Tell them that we are interested.
Do you, at least, have his photo?
No, but how about a video call?
There has been no marriage alliance between these towns for two years.
How can you break this tradition?
He's our enemy.
And he's a lawyer.
They can turn a truth into a lie and a lie into a truth.
It's a pathetic job.
Aaran. You know him, right?
-He's the owner of this hotel. -Yes. I know.
He will soon be venturing into politics.
He has seen your girl.
He likes her.
He wishes to marry her.
Go home and…
fix an auspicious date for their marriage.
Aaran…
see off your father-in-law in your car.
I'm glad that they didn't say no after the engagement.
-I'm heading to the court. -Okay.
-Hello. -Yes. Kannabiran.
Brother, I need to talk to you in person.
Who is this?
I'm Moni. I am in trouble.
I want to meet you.
Come to my office.
Okay, I'll be there.
Okay.
-What's wrong? -Hey, what happened?
An accident. I think the girl died on the spot.
Move!
Did you call for an ambulance?
-Sister! -What happened?
Open your eyes.
-Karumbu, call for an ambulance. -Oh, God.
Look at me. Don't worry.
-Phone… -Yes, what about it?
-Phone-- -Give her some water!
Open your eyes.
Here. Drink some water.
Ma'am.
Here's your phone. Unlock it.
I'll call your family.
Yes.
Moni?
Brother!
-I am in trouble. -Come to my office.
-Brother… -Tell me.
Tell me.
Moni!
Moni… get up.
Moni!
-Take her to the hospital. -Pick her up.
Move!
-What happened? -Accident.
-Who is this girl? -She's our student.
She wasn't wearing a helmet and was using her phone.
It's a hit-and-run case.
Is she dead or alive?
Why are you carrying a corpse?
Drop it!
-Go. -Kanna, let's go.
Brother!
It wasn't an accident!
Brother…
They killed her.
We have checked all the CCTV footage like you had asked us.
It does not look like an accident.
And…
she was talking to the teacher when the accident happened.
We have traced their phones. Their last know location was Maharashtra.
I need to talk to you in private.
-Tell me. -Don't tell anyone about this accident.
We will check whose vehicle it was.
-Come home. -Fine.
I wanted an update about my daughter--
Sir! Sir, my daughter Moni's case…
Your daughter's professor said that
she was not wearing a helmet and was using her phone.
The investigation is over!
I don't want to see you here anymore.
What the hell are you doing with her? Don't you have a job?
-Send her away! -Yes, sir.
Son.
Yes, Dad?
I've heard that you're planning to kidnap that girl
when we go to the Murugan temple for the festival.
What's the plan?
Oh, no, Dad!
That's just a rumor.
-So, you did not plan anything? -No.
I promise. I haven't planned anything.
-But we have planned it! -What?!
-We are going to abduct her! -What--
Dad, there's no need to do that.
Well, then you can forget about that girl.
Mom!
It's okay.
Here, drink this.
Sit.
Listen, forget about what we want.
But if we find out that the girl is not happy with her marriage,
that will be atrocious.
So, get ready to kidnap her!
They'll claim that I've shown my true colors as a lawyer.
She's marrying into a prosperous family. Let her go.
It's nothing but a prosperous well.
-You need to do me a favor. -Tell me.
Tell her parents that…
on the day of the temple festivities, the boys are planning to kidnap the girl.
Tell them that my father has asked them to be careful.
Got it?
I don't get it.
Your father is asking you to kidnap the girl.
Your mother is encouraging it.
And you are asking me to inform her parents about it?
-Yes. -I don't understand your family.
That will help me protect my father's reputation.
-Oh, wow. -We can say that we had warned them.
Isn't it risky?
Yes, it is. And that's what makes it extraordinary.
Kannabiran loves thrill!
I'm going to lose my mind.
-Listen. -What, you don't want me to go?
-No. I will come with you. -Okay.
We'll be in a strong position if I come with you.
-Listen. -Yes?
We'll be in a stronger position if I come with you.
-How, Mom? -Mom of a lawyer!
-Come on, darling! -Great!
-It's okay. -Really?
You too?
-How are you doing? Well? -Hey, stop!
We've stopped making as well as drinking coffee
after the day you came to our house. You may leave.
We are not here to have coffee.
We're here to warn you about something.
We don't need your warning. We're doing very well. So, just leave.
We know how you tried to turn a love marriage into an arranged marriage!
Listen, there is a celebration at the temple--
I know.
-We've donated Rs. 3000-- -No, it's just Rs. 501.
I have paid Rs. 3502! I have the receipt as well!
-You may leave! -Listen.
Our boys have planned to kidnap your daughter during the celebration.
What?!
We have come here to warn you about it.
Please don't come to the temple. Goodbye.
Who are you to tell us not to come?
That temple is at the boundary of our town.
We will come, and we will bring our daughter!
I will come with my family.
I'll seek blessings with the shower of the holy water.
We will have the offerings and then we'll come back!
Listen…
you can have the offerings, but don't end up saying yes to this marriage alliance.
Suppose… my son kidnaps your daughter,
we'll not send her away if he brings her home as our daughter-in-law.
We just can't.
-If our boy manages to nab her, -Hey, go inside.
it'll totally be worth the effort.
Who is he to nab Aadhini?
Before he does it…
you'll kill him.
The vehicle that hit her belongs to Aaran's friend.
We have all the evidence we need.
Should I ask Moni's mother to file a complaint?
Not now. Let her think that it's an accident.
We don't need to talk about it to Moni's mother.
The temple festivities are happening after 15 years.
But Uncle cannot attend the festivities.
Why can't I attend it?
I will attend it with my daughter!
I was thinking about skipping it because I had to work.
But now I am tempted to attend the festival.
-It will be entertaining-- -What entertainment?
-The joker is here. -Hey!
Why aren't you ready yet?
Oh, come on! That boy's family came home and warned us that they'll kidnap her.
-And you want us to go there? -Hey, Anjumani!
Will he be able to do it when I am around? Can he even try?
Do you think I'm going there to have snacks? Get ready!
Well, that's your fate. Let's go.
So, I will be there in five to ten minutes.
Sure. Please. Bye.
Why are you working today?
It's a 200-crore deal.
Can I say I don't want it today?
Fine.
Go.
Stop! Uncle! My dear Uncle!
I'm not going to let them kidnap Baby!
Hey, what's going on?
A lot is going on, Uncle.
This guy is useless!
I have not come here alone. I have a group of ten men.
You're going to see our knives and axes in action today!
-Hey. -How do I look?
What is she wearing?
-A half sari. -Why?
Do you want her to tuck it and run comfortably?
-Should I ask her to wear a kurta? -Why? To run faster?
Ask her to wear a swimsuit!
Ask her to wear a proper sari so that she won't be able to run fast.
She's my sister's daughter.
Oh, God.
Where is he off to?
Sugar walking!
I don't know what's going to happen. I don't know why they are walking.
Why are you wearing a dhoti?
I'm a Tamilian. How can I forget my tradition?
They will be chasing you. Wear your pants.
It's a dhoti that will stay in place.
I can fold it comfortably and run.
It will be a hit.
Not just a hit, it should be a blockbuster.
It will be, Mom!
There she comes.
Come, my beautiful moon.
Come, my beautiful pigeon.
Beautiful. Morbius.
-Is that the right term? -Okay?
What's this? Why is she dressed like a bride?
If she wears a sari, she will look like a bride!
-Boys-- -Get ready, boys!
-Get lost! Move! Come! -Let's go.
All the best.
-Protect our family's reputation! -I need your blessings.
I don't want to hear you say that you've failed.
No. Never.
Don't forget. The auspicious time is 9:30-10:00.
Rock it!
You'll never see a family as strange as this one!
HAIL LORD MURUGA!
Uncle, this is the spot.
We have chosen this spot for Operation Baby.
We can see the seven gopurams from here.
If he tries to run away with her,
on this side, there is a gopuram.
On this side, there is a penance place.
On that side, there is a place for offering food.
So, if he tries to run,
our team will take care of everything.
Come on.
Stop. Where's that vaccine?
Please.
Everyone, be alert. Over.
Boss, Kannabiran has made a grand entry.
Why are you giving him respect?
Tell me about the small guy.
I hope this ritual will yield a good result.
Tell me.
What? I don't want to see him anywhere near this temple!
Can we hit him right here?
If we hit him here…
how will my uncle know about my bravery and valor?
And if he holds Aadhini's hand and runs in public,
will any guy marry her?
No dog will.
This dog will.
Thank you.
Hey, where is Yazhi?
I don't know.
Hello!
Greetings to all devotees!
The temple management requests you to take care of your belongings.
There may be thieves around.
Girls and their parents, please be careful.
Look, the thief is announcing it himself!
Yeah.
Hey!
You told us he wants to kidnap the girl, but he is serving food at the feast.
-Serving food? -Yes.
Hey…
eat well.
If I eat well, how will I run and catch you?
Well, you won't be able to do that anyway.
Joker!
What's this?
I thought you were going to get the girl, but you're serving food here!
The greatest happiness lies in making others happy
and witnessing their happiness.
First, I will make you all happy…
and then I will be happy.
That's Bhagayaraj's quote, right?
Really? Pandiraj asked me to say it.
-Really? -Yes.
What were you doing there?
I was hungry. I went to get a free meal.
Give me that. He's sent this juice for you because you're fasting.
How did he know that I was fasting?
He asked me why you didn't come to eat, so I told him.
Doofus! I'd told you to give me updates about him,
and you are giving him updates about me?!
Hey, Yazhi! Come in!
Happy birthday!
Thank you, dear.
Just a minute.
Nitin… ready?
I am at the farm.
-Talk to her. -Okay.
If they try to kidnap her, they'll have to kidnap three people.
Why?
-Why did I give them two towels? -Why?
Super-Soola!
I'll rip you apart! How dare you call me that!
Inba, we sent 20 people to nab him,
and he has sent 50 lawyers to nab them.
Shit!
He's one step ahead of us.
Send 200 men in lorries from every direction.
Serve them.
Rice, anybody?
-How many? -Six hundred.
Ask them if they're all hungry.
This situation could blow up. Stop it.
If you see a small problem as a big problem,
it becomes a big problem.
If you see a big problem as a small problem, it becomes a small problem.
What do you think about this problem?
-I don't even see it as a problem! -Right!
Dad… the towel's coming off.
Tie it well.
You won't run away.
I misjudged you.
Now I trust you.
Anjumani, untie that knot!
Why are you getting emotional?
I don't trust her.
Come on, tie it.
Tie it!
Hey!
Why are these catering boys coming here?
Hey!
Deflate the tires of all the vehicles that are parked in this area.
We won't let them take Baby!
What is this, Mr. Inba? We've completed such a huge deal.
But you…
Shall we go to my farm?
Everything is ready.
Now?
Fresh college girl.
Now I get it.
Go and deflate their tires.
What's this? They are doing it themselves.
What's the plan?
I think something is going to happen. I don't know what's going to happen,
but something's going to happen!
Why did you ask me to deflate our tires?
If they escape in our car, we'll be held responsible for the whole thing.
-Let's not risk it. -Correct.
What do you like? The merry-go-round, ice cream, or cotton candy?
-What? -Cotton candy!
Oh, cotton candy!
Brother, give them two candies each.
Here you go.
Here, take it.
-Here. -Give her one.
Hey! What are they doing?
They are eating cotton candy.
-One for me, please. -I'll pay for it.
It does not look like they are going to nab the girl.
If they don't nab the girl…
I will be extremely annoyed!
I've told everyone about it. It'll be a shame if it doesn't happen.
Hey! It's my niece's life!
-Guys, ready? -Yes!
Your attire is fantastic!
Just make way for me to run.
-Yes. -Okay?
All the best, boss.
-To the Almighty Muruga… -Salutations!
-All of you! To the Almighty Muruga… -Salutations!
-To the Almighty Muruga… -Salutations!
-Look! It's the holy eagle! -Oh, yes!
-To the Almighty Muruga… -Salutations!
We will find out the result in ten minutes.
Why are you disturbing the lawyers? Do you think you're above the law?
-Stop these police atrocities! -Hey, let's go!
I got it!
-To the Almighty Muruga… -Salutations!
Salutations!
Are you ready?
Salutations!
-All of you! To the Almighty Muruga… -Salutations!
Salutations!
Almighty Muruga, save us from that boy and his family.
God bless you.
Hey!
Let go of us!
Salutations!
-Kanna, Yazhi is in trouble. -What happened?
It's an SOS alert.
She must be alright. I'll go and check on her.
-Hey! -Oh my God!
-Hey! -God!
-Move! -Move!
-Hey! -Move!
-Hey!
I am going with my friend, not with the girl!
I will kill you if you try to stop me!
Oh, God! He tied the sacred thread around her neck!
They're married now!
-Please do something! -Hey.
Why are you announcing it to the whole world? Shut up!
Remove that sacred thread and throw it away.
It's embarrassing. Everyone is staring at us.
Stop, Dad!
It's an auspicious day, the day of Lord Muruga.
In the midst of seven gopurams, with the shower of the sacred water,
-with all the auspicious drumbeats. -Leave!
He's an incarnation of Lord Muruga.
What the hell are you saying?
-What? -Hey! Why are you so quiet?
I am in shock.
Let's go home! I'll deal with you later!
Why are we running away after tying the sacred thread?
-Hey, stop the bike! -Stop!
Go!
Hit them! Thrash them!
Yazhi!
Brother!
Kill her!
Help me, brother.
Brother!
Brother…
they are bad people.
They have ruined the lives of many girls.
Don't spare them.
Brother…
Okay, boss.
Hey. Boss has asked us to kill her.
Hey! We're all Inba's men!
Think twice before you do anything!
Leave her alone and run away!
-Go! -Come.
Hey, lawyer.
Send her with them.
Stay out of it.
Really? Why?
Listen to me.
Leave her there.
It's a love matter.
Inba…
are you trying to scare me?
Yes. Go.
Go to the town.
A minimum of 100 families--
No. A minimum of 500 families…
will die.
Not just her…
we have videos of more than 500 girls like her.
We will release them.
I'm sure you can imagine the consequences.
Hey!
At the auspicious time of 10:10 a.m. tomorrow,
we will release the videos.
You'll see many girls from your town in those videos.
If you enjoy them, please like them, comment on them, and share them.
You'll be responsible for the deaths of their parents.
You mad dog!
And then…
no one will marry the girls from your town.
And then…
I will put you behind bars.
Or within 24 hours,
I will close your chapter forever.
The option that I choose…
will depend on my mood.
You, your gang, and your whole lineage…
will regret touching this girl.
Inba!
When I wear a coat, the judge is someone else.
But when I wear my dhoti…
only I am the judge!
He's always ready Ready for anything
He stands strong like The roots of a banyan tree
He moves like the wind Yeah, that's him! That's him!
As I redefine everything around here
We've got ourselves a face-off A game that's on fire
I cannot be bought I make my own decisions
I come from a legacy That is known to destroy their enemies
I'm really scared, brother.
-I'm really scared. -Please help me.
Brother!
I'm Inba!
A FEW MONTHS AGO…
You, your gang, and your whole lineage
will regret touching this girl.
You want us to kill Yazhi because she knows everything. I get it.
But the lawyer knows everything as well. What are we going to do about him?
We'll kill him as well.
-Uncle, it was a fantastic plan. -What?
We thought they were serving free meals in the tent.
But it turned out to be Kannabiran's wedding feast.
They gave us special tokens when we asked for non-vegetarian food.
You accepted this token?
Get lost! I'll hit you with my shoe!
Where's Soolamani?
Uncle.
Oh, it's my brother!
Please tell the cops about our operation.
What?
I deflated the tires of the ambulance, the police jeep, and all other vehicles.
That's the reason they thrashed me. My knees are hurting.
I knew it. He was acting as if he was 007.
I already have enough problems on my plate!
-Sir, please let him go! -Hey, get up! Buzz off!
I'd rather die than live with you!
-Okay, Uncle. -Start our car. Let's go home.
Sorry, Uncle.
I did not spare anyone.
I have deflated our car's tires as well.
Smart work.
Oh, God!
She's our child.
Don't worry.
We'll make sure no one finds out.
Nitin.
He was the first person to like and comment
on every photo or video that I posted on Instagram.
We became friends.
He did a photo shoot for me.
He told me that I am very beautiful.
He said he will get me an acting job.
We became lovers.
He said he wanted to cut his birthday cake with me…
and then I could leave for the temple festivities.
Happy birthday!
Will you do something for me?
Yes. Tell me.
Look…
the person you are about to meet is a very eminent person.
It would be perfect if you could just spend an hour with him.
We'll have to struggle for 20-30 years if we want to live a settled life.
Many people have used this opportunity and are now living decent lives.
I am your boyfriend.
I am telling you.
Trust me.
That's when…
I saw his real face.
She's a motherless child.
I don't have the strength to fight them.
She'll be alive only if she stays here.
-Please calm down. -Only you can take care of her.
It's alright.
I just closed my eyes for two minutes…
and he married her.
You said we'd be a joke if we didn't attend the festival.
Now she has come back with us as a married woman!
-Is this what you wanted? -Uncle!
You're the one who asked her to wear a sari!
One man!
Just one man!
An entire town couldn't stop him!
Are you trying to praise your son-in-law?
I will thrash you!
What?
They're telecasting the wedding on TV?!
Which channel?
Thendral TV?
Pugzhal TV as well?
-That's channel numbers 63 and 77. -They might put it on OTT as well.
They've added some background music as well, Uncle!
It's me!
Oh, no!
They've ruined my family's reputation.
But they've done a decent job.
-Come here. -No way!
Who the hell is constantly calling me?
Who is it?
I'll find out after I answer it!
-Who is it? -Hello--
Father-in-law, it's me, your son-in-law.
Who?
You don't know what I am going through.
I married your daughter this morning.
It's me.
Hey!
Who the hell is it?
Listen, he has high blood pressure.
Hey!
Alright, give the phone to Aadhini.
Come here and say that to my face!
Of course, I will!
I'll pay you a formal visit.
What is sir saying?
-Sir? So much respect? -Yeah, what did he say--
What did he say?
Aadhini.
How is Yazhi?
She is fine.
-Don't worry. -Okay.
Please make sure she is safe.
She is talkative.
And she is very sensitive.
Boss has asked us to kill her.
Inba.
Tell me whatever you want to eat.
Don't blame me if you don't get it later.
Uncle…
What?
How will we solve the problems if everyone lazes around like you?
We have 20-25 people.
So?
We need lunch, right?
Hey, please just leave!
I can't leave you like this.
I have sent the boys.
Do you want vegetarian or non-vegetarian food?
What does your sister want?
Mutton biryani, mutton sukka, chicken 65, chicken tandoori.
-Do you want half or quarter? -Full.
-I will take half. -Why didn't you tell me?
The next is babyque.
It's barbecue.
-You glutton! -Get some extra pieces for me as well.
God has been actively humiliating me today.
That's what happens when you sleep like a bear!
Hey!
Crazy fellow!
-Hello. -Tell me.
Go to the police station and file a complaint against him.
-Okay. -I will handle the rest.
-Okay. -May I order veg biryani?
Come with me, my dear doofus!
"Dear doofus." New word!
-Uncle! -What's going on? Where are we going?
Hey.
-Tell me. -Four of you go to his house.
-Okay. -I will tell you what to do.
Don't worry about anything.
We will handle it.
Let's go.
Boss, we are following him.
It's Nitin.
Answer it.
Hello? Hello, Yazhi?
Yazhi, why weren't you answering my calls?
You rogue! You scoundrel! What are you doing?
Where are you? At the studio?
Yes, I am at the studio.
Come here and I'll explain--
Yazhi? Hello?
Boss, he is going to the collector's office.
Hey!
What are you doing?
Do you want the honor of your townsgirls to go viral on YouTube?
Drop her off at the spot I told you.
If you don't…
in an hour, the beauty of your townsgirls will be displayed to the world.
Brother, please.
Hand me over to him.
I don't want other girls to become his victims just for me.
Don't worry. It won't happen.
Boss, he has come to court.
Silly fellow!
He does not know that there's nothing that we can't buy for a price.
He will understand soon.
-Do you see what he has done? -Calm down.
Hey!
Your dhoti is coming off.
He escaped during the temple festivities.
Now he's been caught. I will make him come here.
Quick.
The court will be closed for Dussehra tomorrow.
What can we do in two hours?
-Just make sure he does not come in. -Alright.
Ramesh!
-Hi. -Isn't the Judge here yet?
-No. -Sit there.
Kannabiran.
This is the inspector from Pulliman Kombai.
Yes, tell me.
I want you to come to the station in ten minutes.
Bring the girl you took with you.
Why? I am in court.
You have humiliated a girl in public by marrying her.
You've humiliated her family!
We need to ask you some questions. Come here.
You stay here.
People who are with me should never be afraid. Okay?
No one can harm you.
I married my wife. What's the problem, Michael Faraday?
She'll be your wife when you officially tie the sacred thread around her neck.
-Oh, really? -This marriage is invalid.
-How can she be your wife? -Great point!
How are people getting married these days?
They tie the sacred thread after the reception.
I registered my marriage first and then tied the sacred thread.
We're doomed.
-What's wrong? -Do you have proof of the registration?
I will send it right now.
But…
-can I send it to you on WhatsApp? -Yes.
Some useless fellows use a separate number for WhatsApp.
That's the reason I asked.
I have sent the photo. Please check.
Who is Anjumani?
His wife.
She's his wife.
Greetings.
She has signed the papers as a witness.
What did I do?
What is he looking at?
The other two knots were tied by your wife.
I trusted you, and you have ruined my life!
How dare you betray me!
He is trying to hit me in front of you!
Sorry, sir. We wasted your time.
What does your name "Anjumani" mean?
-Well, sir-- -Sir…
is it absolutely necessary to ask this right now?
He's worried. I will tell you next time.
Brother, here is some hot biryani.
If you feel like laughing, you should.
-Oh, no. -Why are you acting crazy?
He has gone mad. Step out of his way.
-Hey, why are you going in? Come out! -Oh, God!
-Greetings, brother. -Come. They are inside.
Come.
Let's go.
Boss, the court will be closed for 15 days.
We must protect her.
We will handle it.
Brother, where is the jeep?
I have asked another person to guard it.
Do you want to meet your boyfriend?
I don't even want to see his face.
I know. That's the reason I thrashed him and dumped him in the car trunk.
Let go of me!
Move!
Videos! You love making videos!
Videos of girls who trust you!
I will kill you!
Boss, he is inside.
I am ready with our boys. I'll get him.
You are telling me he's in court?!
How did he thrash and abduct Nitin if he's in court?
What are you saying?
You've ruined our family's reputation by getting pregnant before marriage!
You're not allowed to come in!
-Oh, God. -Why are you here?
Haven't you humiliated us enough?
Have you come here to humiliate us more?
Hey, Anjumani!
Everyone, please leave!
Uncle has asked you to leave!
You're touching his feet. Move.
Why are you so angry?
My son is a very nice boy.
Who? The lawyer?
He's a dangerous boy!
He humiliated me in public!
He touched our girl before marriage!
Is your son really a good man?
-What? Are you talking about my son? -Yeah, of course!
No way. It's impossible.
Did my son misbehave with you?
Hey.
Are they telling us the truth?
Answer me.
No, I lied to them.
Did you hear that?
We're talking about my son here.
We've taught him to respect girls ever since he was a child.
He knows how to treat a girl very well.
Send your girl to our house with your blessings.
We'll take care of her.
He will cherish her presence.
No one needs to cherish or celebrate anything.
I am ready to remarry her and give her a new life even if she's pregnant.
Damn you!
Please bless her and drop her off at our house.
We will take care of her.
Come and drop her off?!
Look…
he has humiliated my husband!
Humiliated!
This man…
is hotheaded. He has lost his senses, he's blabbering, he's crying inconsolably.
He has humiliated my brothers as well!
Everyone is mad at him.
My house looks like a funeral home!
How can we drop her off?
-You think we are senseless? -Ask them!
If you want, grab her hand, and take her with you!
No, sister!
We cannot drop her off!
We have pride, dignity, and self-respect.
-What do you say? -Hey!
-What did you say? -Don't you agree with me?
Keep quiet.
Can we keep an eye on her every day?
She's in a mood to run the marathon.
So, just ask her to go.
That's it. Come with us, Aadhini.
Come, dear. You are our daughter-in-law.
I'll come with you only if my father asks me to.
Are you coming or not?
I will come only if my father asks me to.
Alright, stay here.
-Come, let's go. -Leave.
Hey.
The mother and her daughter are seasoned actors.
She's willing to come. Take her.
Come, dear.
Baby.
Baby!
-Hey, Anjumani. -Yes?
-I have just one question. -Yeah?
Whose idea was it to say that she's pregnant?
Mine.
Give us your blessings.
-God bless you. -God bless you.
-Uncle… -Hail Lord Shiva.
God bless you.
Dear…
this house is of great importance.
The doors to this house were locked 25 years ago.
-We have never locked it ever since. -Here we go again.
Someone is always around.
We don't want anyone who comes to us for help to go back unattended.
In this house--
The lamp should always be burning.
It's a lamp of eternity.
Kanna's younger sister always visits this house.
Those who visit us should first be offered something to eat.
We must never divide the family under the pretext of dividing the wealth.
Enough. You're smart.
It's okay, right?
Did you hear that?
-Dad-- -It's nothing.
I was pretending to be normal in front of everyone,
but the clock was ticking, and I was getting more and more restless.
Why hasn't Nitin come home for two days?
Auntie, I have sent him to Ooty for some work.
He will be back in two days.
Why can't he call his mother? Is he that busy?
I'll ask him to call you, Auntie.
Inba!
Hey.
Where has he kept him?
Ask the SP to find out his location without letting anyone know.
Come, let's eat.
Welcome, Auntie. How are you?
Please have a seat.
Hello, brother. Father-in-law, welcome.
If my uncle doesn't get a formal invitation from the groom's family,
he won't even touch the food.
Because…
his pride is supreme.
Father-in-law, please give me your blessings!
-Son-in-law, no. Please. God bless you. -Please sit. Grab a leaf.
Hey-- It's okay.
Why are you eating so late today?
I know, right? I would have gone home by now.
Just shut up and eat.
Had I not forced you to come with me to the temple festival,
none of this would have happened.
You must insist on not going to the temple.
He'll force you to go with him.
What if he says that we don't have to come?
We will have to kidnap her from the house.
Kidnapping her from the temple is Plan A.
Kidnapping her from the house is Plan B.
And what if Dad's home?
We'll have to nab him first.
-That's Plan C. -Correct.
For safety, let's get our marriage registered.
-Now that's a lawyer speaking. -It's okay.
So, you've used all the techniques.
-Good job. -You must find a bride for me as well.
Father-in-law, here. Have some mutton gravy.
-Ciao! -Ciao!
Don't choke to death. Eat.
-Ciao! -Ciao!
-Aadhini! -Yes?
The mutton gravy is superb. I didn't know you were such a good cook.
-This is the best meal I've ever had! -Right!
Great. Henceforth, you'll only get the food she cooks.
Mom…
Good night, Dad.
-Good night, dear. -Good night…
-Son. -Yes?
Can you please massage my feet?
You were raving about the food, right? Go. Give her a massage now.
-Oh, that's what this is about? -Why are you getting jealous?
I have been toiling hard for this family every day for years.
Oh, God.
The relief I feel when my son massages my feet…
Don't stop.
It feels great.
Will the eyes sleep?
Mom…
Mom.
Dad…
Go.
Son!
Please massage my hands.
-Dad. -I'm going to lose it!
What? You want to cook delicious food?
Come and do this!
Mom…
Go. I will ask your dad to do it. Come here.
-Thanks, Dad. -I'm waiting.
It's my bad fate!
Hi, darling.
My feet hurt a lot.
What?
Why? Won't you massage my feet?
I never said that.
It's a boon to massage someone's feet.
Especially, my wife's feet. I'm going to get a million blessings for doing it.
With that swashbuckling attire You're mesmerizing me
You are putting my hormones to test
I can hear my heart pound It's yearning for you
My heart is filled with sweetness
Oh, dear, stop looking for new tricks
Don't you be in peace After disturbing mine
Stop mesmerizing me with your beauty
When you touch me, it's…
So electrifying
With that swashbuckling attire You're mesmerizing me
You are putting my hormones to test
Hey, I can hear my heart pound It's yearning for you
My heart is filled with sweetness
You are a beauty And I can't stop admiring you
The walk you walk Is smooth like a chariot
We both will give birth to a son
And he'll be brave as a lion
May I come closer And touch you like the breeze
Or shall I unleash on you like a storm? Come to me
Come closer, I am waiting for you
Go ahead and be the storm
You are my cute queen
When I'm with you I'm drenched in love rain
Shall I kiss you so tight that it'll be…
-So electrifying -So electrifying
So electrifying
With that swashbuckling attire You're mesmerizing me
You are putting my hormones to test
I can hear my heart pound It's yearning for you
My heart is filled with sweetness
Oh dear, stop looking for new tricks
Don't you be in peace After disturbing mine
Stop mesmerizing me with your beauty
When you touch me, it's…
So electrifying
Malar!
Did you see it?
Did you see how they're enjoying a dead girl's video?
So many views! So many comments!
So many likes!
A new video coming soon.
-Enjoy. -You rascal!
Why are you torturing me?
I don't know if it's a day or a night.
I can't hear any sound!
I don't like to waste time. Here.
I'm giving you five minutes. Tell us everything.
If you don't…
we will kill you.
Hey…
forget about five minutes,
I won't tell you anything even if you give me five years.
Let go of me!
No! Stop!
I will tell you everything!
Let go of me! I will tell you the truth! I will tell you!
Go ahead.
First…
we identify our targets and trap them in love.
Then we threaten them, intimidate them, and record their videos.
We seduce them by saying that we will pay them and they can enjoy their life.
If they agree to it, we let them go.
But those who resist…
we kill them and pass it off as an accident.
Brother…
One of our guys takes the couples' phones,
travels to Madhya Pradesh, Mumbai, Punjab,
and dumps the phones and sim cards at different places.
Police try tracing the phones' location,
but they never find it.
Their last known location was Maharashtra.
We talk to their family members and pretend to be local villagers.
We provoke them to commit suicide.
Kanna, someone has killed him.
Rascal!
We shouldn't spare them.
We should drag them all to court.
They should be hanged.
Their punishment…
must act as a deterrent for people with such cruel motives.
The rage that's within me is asking me to finish him off.
But…
Great men are always bad men.
Inba, he's not just one man. It's a huge network.
Instead of getting angry for what they did to my loved ones,
I must keep calm
and fight for many unknown girls who are trapped in this mess.
I want to go deep into its roots and flush them out.
What happened to Inba's wife?
His wife and driver had eloped. They had run off to Maharashtra.
They have been untraceable ever since.
Her father is still looking for her.
His phone's location shows that he's only been to his house and the court.
The court is closed for a few days.
Why would he visit it frequently?
Hi, Kanna.
-Hello. -Did you have your lunch?
Did you drink water?
Did you urinate?
Hey.
Drink lots of water.
Make sure you're peeing on time.
How was the food?
The food was fantastic. You did a great job.
If my mom's food is rated six,
your food can be rated seven.
Thank you, dear.
Seven! Oh, Lord of the seven hills! Oh, no!
-Miss you, dear. -Miss you too.
-Listen. -Yes?
Why is that hen pecking so much?
Let's make a curry with it.
-Greetings. -Hey, Thangam.
-How are you? -I'm fine.
A wife is the Lord's blessing…
The caller tune has changed.
It's okay.
Just a minute.
Yes, Mom?
-Mom. -You have changed Mom's song.
Mom's song?
Oh, the caller tune?
What's it now?
It says, "A wife is the boon of the God."
No, Mom.
I promise I did not change it.
You've called me, but you haven't asked me if I've eaten yet.
Your wife already asked you everything that usually I ask.
You heard it?
I'm going to knock that hen down.
Hello?
Boss is struggling to strike a balance between his wife and mother.
-No one's ever been able to do that. -Correct.
Kannabiran. Who is this?
They have shot a hot video right now.
At your house.
Why am I telling you this?
I should just release it.
-I'm sure it's going to be viral. -Hey!
-I will kill you! -Hey.
Check your WhatsApp.
Aadhini, what happened?
Aadhini!
Oh, God!
Hello.
You thought I couldn't get to your wife, right?
I'll thrash you!
Where are you?
-My name is Inba, kid. -I'm going to kill you!
-Aadhini, open the door! -Aadhini!
Aadhini.
Try calling her.
Aadhini.
Aadhini!
Aadhini, I want to see you.
Please open the door.
Aadhini--
Calm down. It'll be alright.
I'll handle it.
Come.
Don't cry.
Look, dear.
I saw the video.
The world might see it soon.
I will try my best to stop it…
from coming out.
But if it does come out…
I will die.
Hey.
Aadhini.
Hey, is my Aadhini a coward?
Is she someone who gets scared easily?
Is she someone who can't face problems?
Nude!
My entire body will be exposed soon.
Many people will see it.
Many of them will share it.
"Wonderful," "bad,"
this is what some scoundrels will comment on it.
"Can I get the full video link?"
This is how some of them will plead.
Not a single person will say…
"Delete the video."
The neighbors, the people in the area,
the whole town will look at me differently.
"The girl whose video went viral."
They will gossip about it.
But will they talk about the guy who posted the video?
Will they scold him?
If a girl is sexually abused…
they say that she must have provoked him.
If she is raped, they say that she must have dressed provocatively.
We only talk about the victim.
Do you think they talk about the perpetrator of the crime?
This village only has…
a mouth,
but no ears.
It won't hear anything.
Even if they laugh at something else,
I will end up thinking that they are laughing at me.
Forget about me.
My father?
Do you think he can go to a shop?
You…
Can you go to the office?
The father of the man who did this will walk freely.
The man who did this will walk freely.
But you, the girl who isn't at fault,
is trembling in shame and hiding in a room.
The man who hid and recorded the video…
his family should be trembling in shame, right?
They think women are weak.
We need to show them the power of women.
The construct that a woman's "honor" is based on her reproductive organ
is absolutely rubbish!
A woman's body…
is not an object of obscenity.
You must be the first one from this family to speak against it!
"Your perversion…
is a lot more obscene than my body."
That's what the united voice of the girls must say!
Our fear is their strength.
Aadhini…
I believe you will be a role model to all the girls.
The beauty of a girl lies in her courage and confidence.
Be courageous!
We will stand with you.
Always!
Me, Dad, Mom, and our whole family!
Come on!
My daughter-in-law shouldn't cry.
You must be brave!
You must never cry!
Okay?
Who are you?
I am here for the annual CCTV maintenance.
Okay.
Is he that evil?
We shouldn't spare them!
I will kill them and go to jail!
I am ready.
He has sent a video.
Connect it.
Brothers and sisters…
I am Aadhini.
You must have seen a video.
The girl in the video isn't me.
They have morphed it with CGI.
I'm not going to sit here and spew these lies.
I am the girl in that video.
Kannabiran's wife.
I would've been ashamed if I was at fault.
They hid cameras in my home and recorded me when I was taking a bath,
when I was with my husband!
The ones who recorded that video should be ashamed!
Their parents should be ashamed.
The ones who released it, shared it, and liked it should be ashamed!
Why should I be ashamed?
This is not emotional…
it's educational.
The guy who recorded my video is Aaran, the owner of the PK Hotel.
Inba, she has used a picture of my family!
The one who asked him to do it is Inba,
the son of the Central Minister.
They are responsible for the deaths of Kaverinadan's family and Moni.
My family!
Sir, that's my family!
We are going to court.
We'll gladly accept the court's and the people's judgment.
Now, I'll give you some time.
Give me every single video you have before the court's vacation ends.
If you don't…
You had promised you'd do something, right?
I will do the same to you!
Inba!
Fear and regret…
are worse than failure.
Does he have the proof to back his claim?
Inba…
him having proof is not the problem!
If this video comes out,
everyone's going to start speaking up.
If I want to win this case, I need proper evidence and witnesses.
I've started gathering it.
I've secretly met all the victims.
They need to be our key witnesses.
The greatest pain for women is learning to live with the pain.
We don't speak up when we need to and speak when it's unnecessary.
I asked Dad and my father-in-law…
to file a complaint on behalf of Aadhini at the local police station.
I cannot accept this complaint. Leave.
I tried filing a complaint at the SP office in person.
Ask him to come next week.
Tell him I am not here.
They made me stand. They made me wait.
Finally, he refused to meet me.
Fighting this case is a huge challenge for a lawyer like me.
How can an ordinary person fight it?
I met a senior lawyer, who is currently a judge, and a family friend.
My well-wisher, Mrs. Viji Chandrasekar.
Sir, it's me, the inspector.
The lawyer has filed a complaint at the CM cell.
The DGP has issued an order to file an FIR.
The boys who are with him have made some silly mistakes.
My son's name is also on the list.
Please look into it and handle it.
I don't want to hear a word about it in the press and the media.
I'm willing to testify in court.
But Aadhini and Yazhi won't be able to get away.
Inba will finish them.
The SP is on the line.
-Tell me. -We've found Nitin's location.
Well done.
We were careless, Dad.
What's wrong?
They have abducted Nitin.
Nitin?
The two girls who were willing to testify in court have been abducted as well.
Tighten the screws!
You cannot go to court.
I will release all the videos!
Everyone's going to see those!
If you try to testify against us…
She's in the hospital.
They have intimidated everyone.
We don't need anyone.
Aadhini can do it.
Yazhi…
you should also stay out of it.
You have a life of your own.
What?
You called me your sister, right?
Was that a lie, brother?
My brother is fighting for a good cause.
Why can't I stand with him?
I will stand with you! I don't care who's against us!
Case number 307/19.
The petitioner is Aadhini.
The defendant is Inba, also known as Inbasekar.
I have listed Inba's name as the primary accused in this case.
He furnished a medical certificate and did not come to court.
Proceed.
The Central Minister Perumal's son, Inba, and his associates
record obscene videos of women and use those to threaten them
into sleeping with eminent people.
Audio clips, WhatsApp screenshots of Inba threatening me
have been submitted to the honorable court.
She is an honest judge.
We've won half the battle if she's the one hearing this case.
The defense may present its case.
In the current case,
the petitioner's husband, Kannabiran,
has always been a science and IT protege.
This is a commonly known fact.
He uses technology to unlock cars without their keys!
He has used his prowess to hack into Mr. Inba's phone.
He has placed some images on Mr. Inba's phone
without his knowledge through WhatsApp.
You Honor…
this is a vile attempt to tarnish Mr. Inba's image.
Why hasn't a single one of the "many victims" testified against him?
This man is using his wife to settle personal scores!
You're an esteemed judge, Your Honor.
I would like to call another esteemed personality,
Prof. Alagunambi to the witness box.
I am a professor at Mr. Inba's not-for-profit NEET coaching center.
People think Mr. Inba is a businessman.
But in my eyes, he's a philanthropist.
His philanthropy has changed the lives of many students.
Some have government jobs, and some have settled in foreign countries.
Records of the coaching center.
Go and check that area.
You've abducted Nitin! Where is he?
What's going on?
Comb through their house.
-Sir, please take off your shoes. -Go!
Sir!
I would like to submit the testimony of Mr. Nitin, who was Mr. Inba's associate.
One day, we were using cocaine.
I have tried every single drug in the world!
There's nothing that I haven't tried.
From a 100-rupee pill to a 25-lakh-rupee bottle, I've tried it all!
The drugs…
Cocaine, Speed, Ketamine, Bendzedrine, I've tried it all!
Then…
the women!
All ages!
From 16 to 60!
Tamil Nadu, Kerala, Andhra, Karnataka…
from all countries, and all religions, and colors!
Inba's wife found out about his vices.
He killed his wife, sir.
But he cooked up a story about her eloping with a driver.
He killed the driver as well.
I request the honorable judge,
under section 327 of the CRPC,
to have the victims' testimonies recorded in the judge's private chambers,
as a part of the "In-camera proceedings."
This is my humble request.
Alright. But where is your witness, Mr. Nitin?
Sir, there's a corpse in the backyard!
You are trapped!
What's this? You killed a boy and hid his body in the trunk?!
Nitin!
Inba, please save me.
-Are you going to testify against me? -No, Inba.
Sorry, madam. But this is really important.
-Adhirayar is a killer! Don't spare him! -Hey!
Tear his place down!
Kannabiran has coerced me into recording my statement.
He has tied me up. He is torturing me.
Every single statement I've made in that video is false!
Please save me if you see this, Inba.
Kannabiran will kill me if you don't!
This is a temple. Please don't destroy it.
I'm begging you!
-Please! This house is like a temple! -Hey!
How dare you kill my friend and call your home a temple!
No!
Don't break it!
Oh, God!
This case is dismissed.
Mr. Kannabiran has wasted our precious time
by trying to mislead the court.
He's set a bad example by doing so.
The court orders an investigation into the allegations
against Mr. Kannabiran and his father Mr. Adhirayar.
The police are ordered to keep the court informed about the investigation.
Don't hit him! Stop!
Please, he is an old man. Let him go.
A murder has been committed.
And there are chances that the evidence can be manipulated.
And hence, the court hereby orders…
that the accused must be arrested and their actions must be investigated.
KANNABIRAN AND HIS FATHER HAVE BEEN ARRESTED
-Cheers! -Cheers!
Can we win the case if we file an appeal against the court's decision?
We'll be out on bail tomorrow.
We can go home.
I'm a lawyer, but I couldn't…
Sorry, Dad.
You had to stay here for two months.
It doesn't matter.
I'd be happy to stay here for two years…
if it means that our girls will be safe out there.
But they won't let that happen.
Are you going to wear the coat…
or the dhoti?
Tell me, SP sir.
He has nabbed five people.
My officer Micheal Faraday.
You are under arrest.
Prof. Alagunambi.
And three boys from your team.
-Open the door! -Let us go!
You could be his next target.
Be careful!
-Let us go! -Open the door!
I don't want anyone to hear their voices.
Let us go!
Mr. Serviceman!
I completely understand the position I'm in.
I can ruin many lives,
spoil their images.
And I'm going to do that.
I'll start with your wife!
I am going to release the videos of 500 girls.
You can try and talk about it "positively,"
but women are the weaker sex!
But I have a deal for you.
Bring my boys to me and…
save yourself and your townsgirls.
I will give you all the videos.
If you don't, I'm willing to go to extreme lengths to get what I want!
You shouldn't waste your time.
You have 20 minutes.
-Anish! -Sir?
Start uploading all the videos.
-Hello? -Brother,
they are calling me from different numbers…
and are threatening me by saying that they want to talk about the videos.
I am really scared!
He has sent me the video!
Please save me!
Brother, he has sent my video to my brother.
And the scoundrel captioned it as "Enjoy!"
Oh, God!
-Dad! -Leave my sister alone!
Dad!
Brother!
Dad!
Brother!
Dad!
Kill him, Inba!
You think you can play with the law just because you're a lawyer?
Anish!
Play the video!
Let him check it.
You must've received it on your phone.
Watch it.
There is no internet.
Why? Didn't you pay the bill?
Can you check if you've paid your bill?
The Wi-Fi as well as my mobile network isn't working.
Jammer?
That's alright.
I have it on my phone.
The "Celebrating Women" festival!
What are you going to do?
No one is going to marry any girl from your town!
-I am scared, brother. -Help me, brother.
Please save me, brother.
Brother!
Don't spare them, brother!
Don't shoot!
Pervert!
These are those perverted eyes, right?
These eyes!
Hey!
Today is judgment day!
Mom! Dad!
-Quick! -What are you doing here?
Look. Have a good look.
Look what your children have achieved!
-Son! -Oh, God!
-Who hit you? -Are you alright?
Hey! Who are you?
How can you hit my son?
Who are you? Tell me! He is bleeding!
A father is not someone who gives birth to a child.
A father is someone who raises a child.
He's not a "son."
Useless!
He's a murderer!
Don't trust him!
Please thrash him!
-Let's get him! -Come on!
Stop screaming!
Please, I'm begging you.
Let me go.
-You can't leave. -I need to go.
Take off your clothes! Just do it!
Please!
You'll regret it if you don't follow my orders!
-Damn it! -Please don't hit me!
Please let me go.
Take your clothes off!
Okay, I'll do it.
The scoundrel in this video…
is your blood.
Does that make you happy?
You raise your boys by telling them, "Boys shouldn't cry."
Instead, you should tell them that they shouldn't make girls cry.
This… perversion…
they have similar videos of more than 500 girls, sir.
They have destroyed many families.
But…
they have a friend in the police department.
We send our girls to schools and colleges to study.
But predators like him have ruined the lives of many girls!
And he's rewarded for his deeds. He's known as an "honorable teacher."
If people who are supposed to protect our girls are evil,
how do we send our girls out?
My sister was nine years old.
Brother!
Two beasts just like them…
killed her brutally.
Brother!
We couldn't accept her death.
We still believe that she is living with us.
We still buy her clothes, offer her food, and live like she's here with us.
If you keep inflicting such cruelty,
how can you expect the parents to move on?
"Justice for Saraswathi," "Justice for Vimala,"
these aren't just hashtags meant to be discussed online!
These men must be scared!
We will try arguing and fighting this in court.
But they'll seek adjournments, and they’ll keep evading us!
Because we might know the law, but they know the loopholes!
Vicky!
I came here because I trusted you.
Who asked you to trust us?
-Why are you doing this to me? -She was of your age.
-She studied with you. -Please let me go.
He told her that he loved her.
He recorded this video.
-His group joined him. -Please! It hurts!
They gang-raped her.
-Please let me go! -Dude, how was it?
These girls are regretting the fact that they were born as females.
She's just a 19-year-old child for her parents!
She must've had many dreams!
Her parents are traumatized. They're scared of this video.
And he sent the video to her brother.
Oh, God!
What should I do to your brother?
Tell me.
Why did you do this?
Look at our father. He is such a nice man.
He doesn't even enter my room without knocking on the door.
He's hanging his head in shame.
Look at Mom!
She was always proud to have a son like you!
She's wailing and crumbling!
It's humiliating to call you my brother!
If they pay you,
will you place a camera in my room as well?
You insane dog!
You shouldn't even be alive!
Are you out of your mind?
Sir, they have killed him!
-Sir! -No!
I am sorry, Dad.
We don't need him.
He didn't deserve to live.
Brother, please tell the girls that I've apologized on behalf of my brother.
Tell them our family is hanging our heads in shame.
This animal has turned me into a murderer.
He has ruined my life and my dreams!
You did not commit this murder.
I, your brother, did it.
Kanna, you know me.
I have been a teacher for 25 years.
I have created many doctors and engineers.
Really? Is that all you have done?
Fifty-seven girls.
They were all as shy as you in the beginning.
-No, sir. -But marks, jobs, campus…
they got it all and are living like queens today.
-Are you getting me? -Please, I won't do it, sir.
Please, sir. Leave me alone.
Oh, God!
I don't care about the others!
I have raised my son well!
I won't let him die!
He might have made a mistake, but who are you to punish him?
Hey!
Come, let's go! Get up!
-Where are you going? Come here! -Stop!
You think your son's not like them?!
He's the one who talked to everyone and brought the whole plan to this stage!
Please stop!
Oh, God!
-You killed him! -Hey!
I have always strived to be an honest cop.
I've never accepted a bribe in my life.
But because of this beast…
I've committed a sin.
Dad! Stop!
-And I'll pay for it. -No!
Dad.
This statement says that Kannabiran kidnapped your daughter.
Sign it, or I'll file a case of prostitution against your daughter.
-Dad! -Dad, save me!
-Dad! -I can't kill him. He's my son.
But please kill this sinner! Kill him!
Dad!
Please, save me.
Oh, God.
Uncle!
Thank you, Uncle.
Thank you for coming!
Please save me, Uncle.
Shoot him, Uncle!
Blow his head off!
I'll shoot him.
I'll slay this demon.
Shoot him, Uncle! Damn it! Shoot him!
Can you place this gun…
on Inba's forehead, Kannabiran?
Uncle! Uncle, what are you saying?
Sir?
I have weak eyesight.
You don't believe it, right?
My daughter used to help me.
Daddy, left.
Daddy, right.
Great job, Daddy! No one's going to know!
She meant everything to me.
You ruined her image in public.
She was pregnant.
How could you kill her?
Great men are all--
Kannabiran.
In court, it's the judge who orders the execution of criminals.
Does the judge commit murder?
No, right?
You've done the same thing.
People usually run away from these problems.
Some men with a big heart come forward to fight it.
Not everyone…
can bear the weight of being that man.
God bless!
I understand the value of life.
But the happiness of our girls is more important to me.
I can't watch them get humiliated by the cops, the courts, and the news channels.
Police! Open it!
The cops are here.
I've committed all these murders.
Please leave.
Forgive me.
I am proud to be your assistant.
Take them. Use the back door.
Let's go, ma'am. Please.
Come on!
Hey, open it!
Kanna!
Oh, God!
Kanna!
What have you done?
I prayed to the Lord for seven years for your birth!
Oh, God!
I didn't commit a crime, Mom.
It was just a cleanup.
Kanna!
Our son!
Brother…
Brother!
Don't arrest!
Don't arrest our brother!
Don't arrest!
-Don't arrest our brother! -Don't arrest our brother!
-Don't arrest! -Don't arrest!
-Don't arrest our brother! -Don't arrest our brother!
-Don't arrest! -Don't arrest!
-Don't arrest our brother! -Don't arrest our brother!
-Don't arrest! -Don't arrest!
-Don't arrest our brother! -Don't arrest our brother!
You have gifted a good son to this soil!
-Don't arrest! -Don't arrest!
-Don't arrest our brother! -Don't arrest our brother!
-Don't arrest! -Don't arrest!
-Don't arrest our brother! -Don't arrest our brother!

-Don't arrest our brother! -Don't arrest our brother!
