Kali.

In this society, where humans live like animals,

Survival is a constant struggle for both of us

The mountain and the forest will take care of everything else.

Water.

Water.

Water

Hey,move aside.

Move..

Get lost.

Brother.

They are hiding in comrade Balan’s house.

One of our guys have seen,if we go now we can catch them

Look into it

Okay brother

Come.

Nallaiya, you talk of special meat, but you serve me only rabbit meat!

Sir, I will get it next time for sure.

Hey, hope you have only the essentials for the poojai, right?

Nothing else is there,right?

Sir, how will we do such things?

That too when you are here.

You said the same things last time, and you did it

You guys can't be trusted.

Keep everything down, let me check it.

Hey, why are they going inside the forest to go to the temple?

Sir, our temple is inside the forest only.

Is sir new here?

Sir,they belong to the nearby settlement.

Vanakaruparayan temple, which is at the top, is their ancestral deity.

Yearly, they gather together to do their rituals.

what is that in your nose?

Sir,it's our tradition.

Open all the sacks.

Open it,guys.

Do it.

Open all the sacks and keep every things outside.

Liquor!!

You take this to the mountain top and party, right?

Sir, we do the rituals with these and offer them to our deity.

-Sir,please tell him. -How dare you.

Are you talking rules here?

Keep everything aside.

Sir,we know these guys very well.

Since there's no road or hospital, many of them came down from the mountain.

Only these 7 or 8 families, no matter what, decided to stay in the mountains.

People from these divisions are addressed differently.

Their customs and traditions are a bit different.

But they are harmless,Sir.

How can we go when the police have stopped us with their rules?

You tell,

Sir,he is an important person in their division.

Sir,it's been so long we have come down from the mountains.

Include them with me.

So what if you had moved down?

How can he talk disrespectfully?

Sir,

He is my sister's son,Sir.

He is educated.

If he said anything wrong, please let him go, sir.

what have you studied?

Engineering or Medicine?

I'm doing a diploma.

Diploma?

Guys,keep moving.

Guys,take your things quickly.

Sir,I will leave now.

Sir,do you know one thing?

You haven't tasted their liquor.

You might not have experienced the ultimate high before.

-Is it? -Yes.

Hey.

Can we also come?

(Grunting hysterically)

Ok..Ok..OK.

Sister-in-law,one tea!!

Silence.

what is it?

Daddy!

-Philip,silence everything. -Ok,brother.

Hey,switch that off.

Turn off the music.

(Kerala lottery,everyone gather)

(Just 40 Rupees)

Augustin, you've turned off the sound from inside. What about the noise from outside?

Philip,

Yeah,I will look into it.

Hey, is it the lottery ticket seller at the junction?

Yes,brother.

Ask him to turn it off.

Hey,turn it off.

Augustin, when he was a kid,

He came to this town as an orphan.

He trusted in his hard work and succeeded.

Now, he's the head of the municipality.

The only person he has to rely on is Philip, who is like a brother to him.

Augustin got married to a tamil girl,Malar.

He got everything he wished for.

But his only worry was that he didn’t have an heir.

Angel is the one who came into his life after long prayers.

Augustin changed a lot after Angel arrived.

His daughter Angel is everything to him.

Augustin, slowly as he entered Angel's world,

became utterly obsessed with her.

Your daughter may be everything to you.

but she can’t be the only one in this world. Everyone should be included.

Hope you understand.

Your hands will shake like this when you drink alcohol with your earnings.

-Look here. -Hey,Karuppu.

There’s an additional two hundred rupees.

There’s a sack,dump it in the river while you go.

Take two of them for help.

Ok,brother.

Hey,two of them come with me.Let's get it done.

Hey,remove your slippers.

For what?

Dharma,remove it.I said.

Do I need to tell you separately?

Brother, what’s in this sack?

It’s a sack of money(sarcastically)

Buddy,just lift it.

That's a good joke.

Jesus!

Shut up and take the stick.

Hey,Karuppu,are those blood stains?

Dharma, maybe a cow died after giving birth to its calf.

Does a calf look that small?

It might be a pig, but do we need to know the details, Dharma?

Let’s just go and dump it.

You guys dig it.

Dharma,get me the phone.

what curry did you make?

Drumstick curry?

Ok,I'll be there soon.

After I’m done with this work, we’ll proceed with ours.

Brother,is this enough?

Come and check it out.

Dear,I'll call you back.

Hey, it looks like you could be buried here.

Hey, fool, don’t just stare at me,dump the sack.

Brother,shall I open it ?

Or shall I close it?

Hey, just keep pouring the mud.

Let us see what's inside.

Ok,open it.

Open it.

Hey,it's a dog.

Even I thought it could be a pig.

Hey,hold on.

It's still alive.

Dharma!

Hey Dharma,Where are you running to?

You’re so blessed with a long life!

Amen!

Guys,what are you doing?

Haven’t you buried it yet?

Brother,the dog is still alive.

Still alive?

It looks like it’s so fortunate!

That’s why it’s still alive even after being poisoned!

Brother,what happened to the dog?

The dog was sick after eating the dead chicken waste dumped by Keralites.

I poisoned its food because it might spread infection to our cattle and goats.

Karuppu,can you finish it off?

Yeah,I can do it.

Brother,the dog is still alive.

Do what I said.

Don't talk unnecessarily.

I can pay you extra.

Ok,brother.

Karuppu!

Karuppu!

Isn't it alive?

Poor animal.

Let us not harm it anymore,we will let it go.

Hey,it is already infected.

Let us do what we are told to.

Hey,anyways it is going to die.

why should we kill it?

Let’s leave it in the forest; it might go anywhere.

I think what Dharman is saying is right.

we will let it go.

Do whatever you want.

Hey,don't forget to bring the cycle.

It seems you are infected.

It's better you stay in the forest.You will be safe.

Your owner didn’t have any loyalty towards you.

Stay alive and don't give up.

The forest and the mountain will take care of the rest.

Ok?Did you understand?

Ok.

Amen.

I'll go drop off this cycle and come back, okay?

Ok,be safe.

come.

You followed me all the way here!

Who is this for?

Cooking for you guys is already a waste,

Now,for a dog?

Mom,please serve it.

There is nothing left.

Brother,take my share.

This is my share.

Keep your share now!

No.

Here I go!

Here.

Eat.

What's wrong with him?

It's been infected,mom.

We’ll give him traditional treatment; he’ll recover.

Brother,it will stay with us,right?

Shall we give him a good name?

Ok,Malli.

You come up with a good name.

Shall we name him Karuppan?

First,Look at the dog properly.

Oh,it's a female?

Shall we give it our granny's name?

-Kaliyamma? -Yes.

I'm warning you.

It's a name of a great person.

But it suits her.

Kaliyamma,kali..kali..

It doesn't suit.

Malli,it is nice,right?

Yes.

Kali.

See,she is waging her tail.

The name is fixed.

It's Kali.

Some regularly dump medical waste and rotten meat in

Coimbatore’s Anaikatti, brought from Kerala by truck.

Brother,I will not repeat this again

Brother,I will not repeat this again.

Brother,I will not repeat this again

What did you expect to happen by complaining to the police?

This is what I do

I will not let you live.

He is the one who complained to Augustine.

Brother,please tell him not to do.

Give me your hand.

Give me your hand.

brother,No.

(Yelling in pain)

Put him on the bus to Tamil Nadu

let him tour all the places leisurely.

Reporters should be scared to publish any news about me.

Listen,dear.

Forest officials are saying that,

Elephant Krishnamurthy has come to the foot of the hill.

Is it?

Better,be careful.

(You lowlifes are always late for the market)

When will you be on time?

It's done now,Sir.We are leaving now.

Hey,Karuppu!

Didn't I ask you to kill this dog?

What is this?

Brother,she is recovered completely.

Why didn't you do as I said?

I only told him not to kill it.

You shut up your mouth.

Why didn't you do it?

Brother,it is..

I don't want to see both the dogs here.

Get lost.

With just a little education, they think they can do anything here

From tomorrow,don't come here for work.

I asked you to kill it,why didn't you do it?

When will I get this?

I will deliver it soon,brother.

This is what you tell everytime!

Hey,I should get it one day before the birthday.

-Do you understand? -Yes,brother.

Come,my dear.

What’s up?

Nothing brother.

There is so much of work in the plantation.

We are running short of labours

Inform Murugan and take some temporary workers.

Ok?

Isn’t that enough ? Yes,brother.

One minute.

Give it to me,I will keep it.

Kali,Eat it.

If you serve it, did you think she would eat it?

Here,eat it.

Oh no.

What is this Malli?

The dog is not listening to your commands!

Hey,Dharma!

How is the dog only listening to your commands?

Even the original dog owner would be surprised to see this!

It’s my dog, and it will listen only to my commands.

Your dog?

Is that why you’ve tied it?

Why don’t you untie it and see?

This looks like a good idea.

Go and drop her at the place where you found her.

Let me see if she comes searching for you.

My money box is the bet!

Enough of your love.

Come,let's go.

Kali.

Hey.

Enough of your love. Let's go.

Why do you keep looking at it?

It doesn't look like she is coming back.

Hey,Dharma.

It won’t return. Let’s proceed with our work.

Hey,you are the reason for everything.

You should be punished.

You don't laugh!

Hey,Dharma!

Look here!

You saved her life just once, and now it seems she’ll never leave you!

♪ Hey Kaliyamma, you're within my eyes

♪ Standing strong in my heart, but why, dear?

♪ On top of my head, I kept you like the sky

♪ Like the roots of the banyan, the leaves of the pippal tree

♪ I was jumping around like I was riding free

♪ We’ll roam the mountains, you and me like a shadow

♪ Dear Kaliyamma, why did I keep you so close, though?

♪ Dear Kaliyamma, why does your face feel like a drug to me?

♪ You drew me near, made me carry you with glee

♪ You turned me into someone new

♪ You made me laugh like a madman, too

♪ You shaped me into who I am now

♪ You brought my dreams to life somehow

♪ You're like a mother, who puts me to sleep

♪ With your love, you make my burdens less steep

♪ When I’m in pain, you stand by me tight

♪ My path has cleared, my love has grown

♪ Your scent is mixed with every breath I take

♪ Dear Kaliyamma, why is your face like a drug that cuts through the strife?

Hey, is she completely deaf?

She can hear only a little, sir.

My throat is sore from shouting at her.

Why did you bring my mother here, sir?

What happened?

To chase the elephant, she threw homemade explosives.

What would have happened if they hit the elephant or people?

Sir,

What other option was there to escape from an elephant like Krishnamurthy, sir?

She could have thrown regular firecrackers, right?

How did she get hold of explosives?

Don’t you know it’s illegal to have explosives?

When running for your life, how can you think about laws?

Isn’t it natural to grab whatever you see to save your life?

Hmm.

Sir, she’s a widow, and that’s the only land she has.

With the harvest from that land, she’s paying for his education.

She also has a daughter.

The land with those banana trees is their only source of survival, sir.

In such a situation, how could they feed a hungry elephant?

In that panic, she did it, sir.

I sincerely request you to let her go, sir.

Then?

Who should I file the case against?

You talk nicely, man!

Mr.Forest!

What are you looking at?

Talk!!

This has become a routine for them,Sir.

This time, our department won’t be lenient!

Sir, please don’t file any case against my mom, sir.

Please,let her go,Sir.

Hey!

Hey, your son..

is asking not to file any case against you!

I will let you go.

I’ll file the case against your son!

Sir..Sir..

Sir, they’re young, and that day was a mistake!

Also he is a student,Sir.

Please let them go, sir, or their future will be ruined, sir.

He should watch his words;

otherwise, he’ll have to face my wrath.

If you say a word,

we’ll pay the penalty and leave, sir.

Kindly,do not file any case,Sir.

I’m letting them go only because of you.

Go and meet the constable.

Mom,

Mom,Stop!

Do you have any sense?

How could you throw explosives to chase the elephant?

What would you have done if something happened to the elephant?

The government, police, and the whole town would have come here!

Now you’ve come here to talk in favor of the elephant?

When your father went on watch duty,

Do you know why the whole town gathered when the elephant killed your father?

Just to see how it killed him.

First, stop being so attached to this land.

Sell it off, and we’ll leave.

What?

Are you asking me to sell the land?

hey!

Past 20 years,

I’ve been taking care of this land all by myself.

We are surviving only because of this land.

How could you even say this?

I’m struggling to retrieve the documents I pawned.

I have no idea when someone will come and take everything away.

First, go and study instead of trying to lecture me.

Go to college,go.

He thinks he’s old enough to give me advice.

Hello,Thangam.Do you remember me?

It's been a year since you borrowed money from me.

Do you have any idea of returning it back?

Sir, the last harvest was very poor.

I’ll pay it with the next harvest.

It’s not good if you keep delaying. Also, the interest is increasing.

Next time I come, don’t expect me to speak to you like this!

Keep that in mind.

You haven’t paid the interest or the principal amount.

Also, you’re stubborn about not selling the land.

Look at him standing there!Good for nothing.

In this condition, is education more important?

Useless!

First,think about the repaying the money.

What have you studied?

I'm doing diploma.

You always go to college after the festival.

What brings you here now?

Aren’t you going to college?

If you’re here for studies, then focus on that.

Instead, if you complain about the facilities,

Did you think they’d take action against me?

You survived in the forest eating worms and insects, right?

If there are worms in the food,can’t you just throw them out and continue eating?

Third-year D.E. student Dharman has been suspended

by the college management for 6 months due to indiscipline.

Uncle, the moneylender came to the house asking for money.

My mother went to bed without eating anything.

I'm completely down.

Uncle, please let me know if there’s any way to get the documents back.

Dear, it’s over a lakh. Where will we get that kind of money now?

If we take a job with a one-year contract,

will they pay any advance?

Things have changed now.

People take the money and then run off within two months

So no one is paying advances anymore.

Everyone's wise to it now.

A broker told me about a vacancy in the rubber plantations in Kerala.

We can enquire about that.

How much will they pay,uncle?

The pay is 400 or 500 more than what we get here.

If you work for two straight months,

You can earn a decent amount to manage things.

Uncle, can you talk to that broker and help me get that job?

I can discuss it, but my only concern is my sister.

We could manage if it's local.

I’ll take care of my mom, Uncle.Please go ahead and talk to the broker.

Ok,dear.But one thing.

The job will be very tough.

That's fine,uncle.

I will be going to Kerala in next two days.

-How are you? -I'm fine.

You come with me.

I will get you placed.

Ok.

-Hey,do you want to join with him? -Ok,Uncle.

Alright.

Don't worry.Things will be better soon.

Dear,please eat.

Out.

Brother,I got it.

Those are your feet.

She’s grown up so well!

Where are you leaving to?

To Kerala.

For a work!

Just for two or three months.

75 percent of our debts can be paid.

Instead of studying properly,

You are giving reasons and wandering around.

what are you even thinking?

I didn't want to lose you.

That's the reason I borrowed money for your studies.

You are adamant just like your father.

One life has been lost, that's enough

No more lives must be lost in this house.

You don't have to go anywhere.

Hey,Dharma.

It’s time. Malayan uncle called us, let’s head out

Hey,Dharma!

If you go against my wishes,

Don't ever speak to me again.

♪ The sparrows' gentle chirping brings peace,

♪ But the waterfalls' roar soothes even more.

Yes,very much.

Ok,listen.

He is Philip.

He is incharge of everything here.

You,bloody dog.

Brother,that's my dog.

Hey,get lost.

Hey,filthies.Enough sleeping.

Get up.

Coming here for work and then sleeping?

What's this, brother? I'm short 700 rupees!

Hey,Siluva,what about you?

It's the same for me.

What is this brother?

It's exactly as we discussed, so you can leave.

What is this brother,we agreed for thousand rupees.

We work for twelve hours.

How can you deduct hundred rupees per day?

While everyone else is staying quiet, why are you speaking up?

You stay quiet.

What he is asking is right.

What is this brother?

Dear,this is how it is.

The hundred rupees is the supervisor's commission. The rest is for you.

If you want it, take it; otherwise, get out.

Watch your words

How can you speak so disrespectfully?

You better watch your words.

Hey Muruga!

What's the problem?

It’s nothing, Philip. These guys are asking for extra money!

Brother,he is lying.

He is taking 100 rupees per day as his share.

If we question them, they disrespect us.

What will you achieve by telling him?

The entire amount I collect goes to him.

Hey!!

If you’re interested, you can work here.

Otherwise, you can leave and close the account.

It's my rules!!

Do you get that?

You better keep them under control.

I will take care of.

(Singing happy birthday song for Angel)

Do they even celebrate birthdays like this?

I don't even know my date of birth.

Hey,let us concentrate on our work.

Useless talks.

Mom,where is daddy?

Dad is talking with his friends; you shouldn’t disturb him.

No,I will go and look for him.

Angel,wait.

Yeah,Angel wants to see her dad.

Mom,leave me.

Mom !! (Shouting, panicked)

what is that sound?come.

Angel,what happened my dear.

Dear,please come quick.

-Dog has bitten her. -Hey,get the car ready

Nothing..nothing..she will be alright.

Drive fast.Let's go.

My god.Please save my daughter.

Sir, give the baby here

What happened sir?

A dog has bitten her.

Ok,please wait outside.

The bite looks deep. Get the dressing tray.

Ok,Sir.

Sir,anti-rabbies vaccine is been given and nothing to worry.

Since the wound is deep,let her be in the hospital for observation.

Sir,nothing to worry at all.

We will take care.

Ok,Sir.

Mom.

I spoke to my brother from a public telephone.

He said he is fine.

He said he wanted to talk to you.

Please speak to him,Mom.

Mom!!

Mom, I keep hearing the barking of a dog.

What is it dear?

Dad, can you at least hear the barking dog?

I'm scared,dad.Can you please go and check.

Sound of a dog?

Can you hear it?

Yeah,I too feel like I'm hearing it.

(indistinct sound)

Oh,is it from here!

Hey! -Sir.

The dog’s barking can be heard in the hospital. Won’t you check it?

Sir,it’s not a dog but a kid.

It's the last stage of rabies. That's why he's shouting like that.

-There? -Yes.

Ok.

Son,what is your name?

Son,what is your name?

what is your name?

Augustine,what are you doing?

Doctor! doctor!

Dad,it is paining.

Dear,leave her.

what do you think you are doing?

Sister,put the baby on the bed.

Sir,what are you doing?

I’m scared that what happened to that boy might happen to my daughter.

Sir,it's one of the rare cases.

Nothing of that sort will happen to Angel.Please don't panic.

Essential first aid has been done including the rabbies injection.

She’s a kid; it’s just the trauma from the incident.

Eventually she will be fine.

For a while, make sure she doesn’t hear any dog sounds

or anything related to dogs in her surroundings.

That's more than enough.

My daughter is fine.

But Philip

Before our angel returns back home,

Not a single dog should be alive in this town,do you understand?

Okay,brother.

Hey,pour it.

Pour it.

No one needs to do it for free.

2000 Rupees per dog.

You get it?

What is this?

It stinks.

Hello Uncle,

When did you come ?

Just now,dear.

I came to the nearby estate for a work.

So,I thought of visiting you.

You had food?

Not yet,dear.

He said he will cook.

We were just waiting for you.

It's late already.

I will do one thing.

I will buy something from the hotel.

Hey,no need.We will cook something here.

No,Uncle.

If we cook, it’ll take too long. I’ll go buy something.

Hey,what is this?

It stinks. Let's go.

Ok,sit.

Let us go and see if we can get it somewhere else.

We will try looking at the shed

Dharma,let's go.

Brother,brother..

-What do you want? -Two fried rice and one briyani.

Two fried rice and one briyani,parcel.

Hey,tiger!

you better sleep inside.

Else your life will end like other dogs in the town,becareful.

Brother, what happened? Why are so many dogs lying dead?

The president's daughter has been bitten by a dog.

So they are killing every dog in this town!

Just because for one dog’s behaviour, they are killing all the dogs, fools.

Kali.

You said biryani and you are giving me something else.

It's fried rice,uncle.

Kali will come,You eat first!

Where is Kali?

How will I know?

Hey,hold this.

What's the urgency?

Uncle,did you see Kali?

He will come.You start eating.

Hey,where are you going?

Kali.

Uncle,you take a nap,I will be back.

Where are you going?

Guys,come.

He isn't letting us eat.

Guys,please come.

Uncle,you eat.

It would not have gone anywhere.

Kali..Kali..Kali..

Brother,did you see a black dog?

I didn't see any.

Did you see there?

Kali..Kali..Kali..

Brother,did you see the black dog?

Do you want lottery tickets?

Did you see any dog? -No

Dharma..

Kali..

It's a male dog.

It's not our Kali.

Kali..Kali..

Brother, where could it have gone?

Dharma,

There are many dogs inside,come.

Hey,Dharma.

Hey,get the dog which is shouting

Yes,brother, right away.

How many are there?

There must be around 25

So we would get around 50,000 rupees

Hey,Kali is inside.

Yes,Dharma.

Kali..Kali..

Hey who are you guys?

Brother,our dog is there in the truck.

That black color dog.

Give it to us,brother. We will leave.

How dare you guys? Better go away from here!

We’re asking for our dog, so why are you threatening us?

(indistinct voices)

Who is it?

Brother!

Brother,we are working in your estate.

My dog is there in the truck.

They must have taken it by mistake,brother.

which one?

That black color dog inside the truck.

Ask them to give it to us,brother.We will leave.

It's my dog,brother.They have taken it by mistake.

Who do you think you are?

Should I do as you say?

Brother,we are just asking for our dog.

And..

You were the ones causing issues by asking for extra money, right?

I should have dealt with you my way.

Now, why are you speaking out of line?

Give us our dog,we will leave.

Yes,brother.We will leave.

What, are you getting angry?

You filthy laborer!

If you’re arrogant, how much more arrogant should I be?

Just run away before I kill you.

I will not leave without my dog.

-Hey -Yes,brother.

If you utter one more word in front of me,

I will kill your dog.

Go..

I said,Go.

Dharma!

Let us go from here,come.

How can we go without kali?

Hey!

It's our Kali.

How can we abandon her?

Hey!

Then you’ll see your dog dying!

Dharma!

Hey,let's go.

Hey,who are you guys?

Hey,kill them.

Hey,Dharma.Let's go.come.

Hey,catch them.

Brother.

Pick him up.

Hey,where are you going?

Dharma!

what are you doing?

Let's go.come.

Come quick.

Comrade!

Comrade!

Comrade!

(Grunting in pain)

Take him in.

Malaiya,you can't be here for a long time.

Their men have already started searching everywhere.

Everything is because of you.

Malaiya,stop it.

Why are you hitting him?

If he didn't attack him,he would have killed us.

Will they get scared of you and just let you go?

Is this an issue that will end by cutting off his hand?

What is this uncle?

You’re talking as if I should just let him cut off my head!

If you had shown respect, why would they ask for your head?

So, are you saying we need qualifications just to live?

Oh,no.You aren't understanding what I'm trying to say.

We don't need to understand anything.

You should be punished first.

It’s useless to fight among ourselves.

Being here is a risk.

You can’t surrender at the police station, nor can you go to court.

Returning to your native place is the only safe option.

I don’t know what else will happen because of you guys.

Uncle.

I'm hungry.

Brother.

They are hiding in comrade Balan’s house

One of our guys have seen it.

If we go now, we can grab them.

Look into it.

Okay,brother.

Come.

Look here.

-What happened? -No one is here.

Where are they?

Chacko.

Don’t you dare mess with me.

I’m tolerating everything for Augustine

Get lost

Hey,guys. hold on.

Hey,have you seen him anywhere?

Hey,get hold of Kali.

Hey,stop.

Have you seen him anywhere?

Bus to our town! (Anaikatti)

It doesn’t look like him. Ask him to leave

Uncle,what are you waiting for?

This is the bus to our town,come let's go.

I know.

They are checking every vechicle. Hold on.

Uncle,they have started the bus.

Go and check if they are on the bus.

It's leaving!

Oh my god! (relieved)

What happened uncle?

Why did they stop the bus?

"Agali"

The bus is going bacwards!

Let us not get down.

Hey,no one should get down.

Hey,get down quick.

(Panting)

What happened?

Brother, no one is here.

-Comrade, -Malaiya.

They are searching everywhere and even came here looking for you.

Comrade, because of us, you’re not in any trouble, right?

I can take care of that,comrade.

But where are you guys?

Their men are at the checkpost.

We don't know what to do?

For sure, you can't go through the main road.

It is better you get into the forest.

That's the safest option.

Ok,comrade.I will take care.

Uncle,what is he telling?

They’ve put their men at all three checkposts.

He’s asking us to take the route through the forest.

What? through the forest?

Hey!

If we need to reach our town alive, we have to listen to the comrade.

But through the forest, how?

How will you even find the route?

Wait a minute.

buddy,what is this?

We could have gone to his house but why meeting him in the hospital?

It’s not a problem for him.

Not an issue.

Augustine.

Someone has filed a complaint in the animal welfare association.

She is Welfare Officer Nirmala.

Greetings.

Don’t you know it is a crime to kill the street dogs?

Will you do the same to your own dog?

Stop with this.

If case is been filed,it will become a big issue in the media.

As per Mr.George’s request, I came here in person .Else…

Have they been caught?

Not yet, brother.

If you get them, kill them mercilessly.

Madam, you please wait there. I will come.

Augustine,shall I file a case against them?

No.

Alright.

Chacko,

Whatever may happen, make sure this doesn’t go out.

If this gets out..

I don’t have any choice but to file a complaint.

Understood?

Yes.

Is he so bad?

He did this out of the anger because his daughter is been bitten by a dog

See to that, this doesn’t become an issue.

He is not so bad as you think.

Hey,Malaiya! Here ! Here!

Malaiya,what brings you here?

That too with a team!!

Nothing much,they are my boys.

Ok.

Ok,listen.

These days, where are you dumping the sacks?

Any issue?

Not at all. My boys wanted to take that route, which is why I asked.

Ok.

Old route is not safe anymore.

We have found a new route.

what is that ?

3 kilometers south from here, there will be a river.

That's Pasalakadu ( a forest )

If you go by the river,

You will arrive at Thuvaipathy check post.

Crossing it, you’ll see a waterfall. After that is Tamil Nadu.

Ok,brother.I will leave now.

Hey,Malaiya.

Hope you are clear.

Not at all.

Alright.stay safe.

Is this rabbit meat?

Yes,Sir.

I hope you didn't give me any other kind of meat.

No,sir.Not at all.

Ok,you can leave.

Greetings,Sir.

If you find those three guys, bring them to us, sir.

Please do what is necessary, sir. I’m dependent on you.

I'll take care of it.

I'll leave now,sir.

What are you going to do,Sir?

Sister,shift the patient to MRI.

Sir,Angel is improving well.

You can discharge and take her home.

Regarding the rabies..

Not at all.

There are still four doses of injections pending.

On day3,day 7,day 14 and on day 30

You will need to come only for that,

Nothing else to worry about.

Ok,doctor.Thank you.

Dad,don't go anywhere and stay with me.

Alright.You sleep,dear.

Hey!!

Stop, stop.

Yes, I'm coming.

Come soon.

Four of them have gone.

Do you have the photo?

Him?

Yes,he is the one

He was also there.

Jeep can’t go by that side.

I have told them the route to check post through Pasalakadu.

Kali.

Hey,Kali.Stop.

Dharma!

If this dog hadn’t been there, these problems wouldn’t have arisen, right?

Hey!stop it.

If you had studied well in college, these things wouldn’t have happened.

Hold on.

Karuppu!

I'm hungry.

Dharma,shall we look for something to eat?

You will get some elephants.

Maybe you can attack it, cook it, and eat it for six months.

You’re in the forest—why do you keep talking?

Here it is. Take it and eat.

Look at him smile seeing the jack fruit.

Hey,it's ok with eating the fruit.

But keep the seeds safe,it will be needed.

Guys,come this side.

Hey!! hey!!

Someone is coming.

Get down in the pit.

Stay low.

Brother,I will urinate and come.

They have just left.

How long we are going to walk!

why do you keep talking?

They are here.

Hey!!

Where did they go?

(yelling angrily)

Let's keep moving.

Hey,stop it.

Reverse a little.

Ok,Sir.

(whatever we tell,anyways they are not going to listen)

Hello,come here.

Sir.

Where is your son?

He went to work in kerala.

How long it's been since he went to kerala?

It's been 25 days,Sir.

If he comes,ask him to call me.

Ok,Sir.

Since her daughter is been bitten by a dog

The president of Agali panchayat is killing all the dogs in his town

Animal welfare association has ordered to take action against the president

Little bit of this.

Here it is.

You are done with it?

Now,give me your phone.

Here it is.

I will be back.

Please sit down.

Listen, we can take care of the legal problems.

But it is difficult to handle the media.

This is not a easy thing.

This will come in the news.

Not just your name but along with your daughter’s name.

I’m telling you this as your friend

Whatever you earned for your daughter will go wasted.

Think about it.

I will leave now.

This is the Krishnamurthy elephant that killed your father.

Even humans go wild at times.No wonder elephants do to.

Keep moving without making any noise.

If he hears a sound,he will start to chase us.

Hey.

It's going to be dark.

I don't think we can continue further.

We need to stay here tonight. Look for a spot.

Let's go up top and see if there's any space.

Go,Dharma.

It's so dark; I can't see what's inside.

Yes,Dharma.

It's dark and we have to go inside and see it.

Hey,

There is way here,come this side.

Hey,it's dark and please becareful.

Dear, -Yes,uncle.

It's so dark,let us not take any fire torch.

Hey, you two, go get some dried leaves.

Ok,Uncle.

Bring some resin; it can be used to start a fire.

Keep it in the corners.

There are so many so-called engineers roaming around

but nature is the best engineer,No one can compete with it.

Can it be done with someone teaching it?

I feel like staying in the forest.

If you keep talking like this,

You will be called as a mad man.

(People laughing)

Dear,are you also teasing me by joining them?

Stop laughing and get me those jackfruit seeds.

I'll roast them and share.

Buddy!

What are you doing there?

You too have those seeds,right?

Bring it.

I'm coming.

Dharma,

If we all die here,

I won’t be able to see my baby when they’re born, right?

You should have thought about this before cutting his hands off.

It's my fate to be here with you guys in the forest.

You don't have anyone to worry about?

What are you going to do by staying alive?

Uncle,take those seeds.

Let's eat it.I'm starving.

Uncle,what happened?

Dear,it's like..

He used to tease me.

I was not bothered.

But he mentioned about baby,

I'm not feeling good.

Like everyone else,

We had a girl child.

when I was holding the newborn baby,

They say about the divine features,right?

The baby had those features.

She was so divine; you'll want to be with her all the time.

Me and Rasathi,

Named her "Thaen"(honey)

We were taking good care of her.

When she was two years old.

One day,

It was heavily raining,

I didn't know what's wrong with her.

She got seizures.

Me and Rasathi didn't know what to do.

Into the forest,

We were trying to reach the hospital.

Since it was raining,no jeep drivers were willing to come.

Somehow we managed to reach the hospital.

At that time,

The doctor said,

She could have been saved if we had reached the hospital little earlier.

That day we decided,

No more lives should be lost

We asked your mother about going into town.

She was adamant about not coming down.

Then we moved down.

Untill now,

No children for us.

If my Thaen is alive today,

She would be the same age as our Malli.

Even if you are my sister's son.

I consider you all like my own children.

Do you know why?

I got the newborn baby in my hands.

but..

No one should have to face the situation of holding a dead baby.

No one shoud get that situation.

Uncle,

I'm really sorry.

It's my mistake to talk about such things.

Leave it,You didn't do it intentionally.

Uncle,

Even,I'm like your son,right?

Hey,you all are like my children.

Here,

It's hot. Eat slowly.

My mother and sister,

It's frightening to think about what they might be doing now.

Dear,

You know only your mother.

But I know my sister.

She is an iron lady.

She will take care.You don't worry.

Here,eat it.

Mom,

Brother's number is not reachable.

Even I tried calling Malaiyan uncle,

He was also not reachable.

I'm very scared,mom.

Dear,this is how..

13 years back,

Oomaiyan did the fortune telling.

And Pachai left us.

Dear,I'm really scared.

Lord Karuppa,

Please save my son wherever he is.

-Hello. -Hey.

Did you catch them?

Not yet,Philip.

They have escaped and we are searching them.

We will catch them soon.

Hey!!

Before sunrise.

I should hear the news that you have them.

It is not a problem at all.I will catch them.

Else I will come there.

Hey,check if there is a way out there.

Ok,brother.

Brother, It seems like there is a way out here.

Uncle, Karupu.

Get up. It looks like they have come.

Get up.

Turn off the fire.

Hurry up.

Hey, use the flashlight.

Brother,no one is here.

Let's go.

so fortunate.

I meant the jack fruit seeds.

I need to ask you something.

What is it?

Have you ever confessed your sins in the church?

No.

Why are you asking?

I just asked.

Hey, you should have used less cloth!

What would you have done if he had shot you in the buttocks?

Hey,are you playing here?

I will thrash you.

-Uncle,you always point me.. -Shut up.

Always givings reasons!

-Uncle -karuppu!

Becareful,they have surrounded us.

Buddy,watch out.

Hey,give that here.

Hey,Get on top. Move.

Siluva,Karuppu. Get on top.

Uncle.

Buddy,Go..

Hey,hold kali.

Buddy,becareful.

Karuppu,hold Kali properly.

Hey,you get on top.

Uncle,Dharma, Get on top.

Uncle,you climb up.

Uncle,keep climbing.

Climb up.

Dharma,come quick.

Hey,Dharma,you keep moving.

Dharma,it might bite you.Come quick.

come quick. Hurry up.

Fate!!

We're constantly facing threats!

Hey, we can hear the sound of waterfalls!

I think we are nearby.

They are already ahead of us.

Instead of going as a group, it’s better if we split up.

Uncle,will that work out?

It will work out.

Instead of going as a group.

If we go separately, at least we can bring someone for help.

Guys!

Hey, you go by the waterfalls and bring someone from our area.

Ok,uncle.

You two go near the tower to find the route from the top.

I'll be on the west side of the waterfalls.

Ok,uncle.

It looks like Siluvai's voice.

(Yelling in pain)

(Guys where are you?It's paining)

(They are hitting me)

Is this how you hit them?

Die,you filthy.

Brother,please.It's paining.

This is how you should hit them.

They should hear him crying.

Kali..

Somehow go to our kudil (living area)

Without anyone noticing you!

Again I say..

This mountain and the forest will take care of us.

The sound is coming from that direction

(Yelling in pain)

Hey,be careful.

Philip.

Chacko,tell me.

Those three people have been caught.

I’m holding them in Thuvaipathy checkpost

I’m coming.

Water!

Water!

Water!

Get up.

Keep moving.

He needs water,it seems.

Brother.

I have to go out now immediately.

is there any medicine to numb this pain?

Here.

Sir.

Sir,local anaesthesia has to be given.

I will take care,you proceed.

Ok,Sir.

Brother,

Can I drive?

Go get him.

Get him.

Brother, where's the patient who was here?

No idea,Sir.They have left sometime back.

-Left? -Yes,Sir.

-Hello. -Augustine.

Philip is not here in the hospital.

He took the jeep and left without telling anyone.

His number is not reachable.

I'll take care.Leave it.

Where are they?

Brother,they escaped.

Come!!

Guys,come on.

They are almost near us.

Tell me,Chacko.

Philip, they escaped by jumping into the waterfall.

What is this Chacko?

Dear,what happened?

Uncle,they caught Siluva.

They shot him in his leg.

They are not going to leave us.

We need to take him to the hospital.

I'll go and check on our kudil.

Hey,come.

Dear,

Yes,Uncle.

Be safe.

Brother,give me a pack of cigarettes.

Take it.

Brother, what's the route to get to Kudil?

That is...

Sir..

You can see a mountain there,right?

There will be a check post next to it.

Cross it and head east; you'll find a path.

You can take that route.

You will reach Koyar Kudil.

Isn't it in the south direction?

hello!!

They closed that path a long time ago!

You can go in the direction I said.

You will reach your destination.

Come,Chacko.

If you go in the east direction,

If you go in the east direction,

Chacko,

Did you notice the nose ring the lady in the tea shop was wearing?

Yeah.

Turn back the vehicle.

Brother,

There was one lady here.

Where is she?

She just left.

It's brother Augustine.

Brother.

Where did you guys go?

How many times to call you?

We have almost reached them

No need of that now.

Is Philip there next to you?

Give the phone to him.

Who asked you to discontinue the treatment and go there ?

I have almost reached them,I will catch them anytime

No need of that now.

There are many issues here.

You better come back.

Ok,brother.

Give me the cigarette.

What Chacko?

Shall we return back?

He’ll say it easily. It’s me who lost the hand!

Instead of being like this, they could have killed me.

My hand is my symbol of authority!

You go Chacko,I will take care.

Philip,I will be there with you

I will definitely kill him.

Those guys from Kerala have reached our settlement area, sir.

It might cause an issue, sir.

Shall I send our men from the station?

We have got the money from them.

We also told them where they are.

Leave it.

Let them fight each other and find out who's the strongest!

If we get a complaint, we'll go and check it out.

-Ok? -Ok,Sir.

Get me a tea.

Tell me,Sir.

The Kerala guys know your location.

They’re coming to the banana fields searching for you.

They have Dharma's mother.

I was not feeling good,that's why informed you.

Ok,Sir.

Be safe.

Hey!

I've come to your region!

Come out if you have any guts!

Go...Go...

If you don't come out, I’ll kill your mother.

Come out.

Dharma!!

Whatever may happen,don't come out.

Guys,go and check.

Go and kill her.

Come on!

Guys,catch them.

They are here!

To me, all lives are equal.

Dharma.

Come here.

Wat's up.

Come and see.

Look at him.

Malli,you also come.

My goodness!! Four puppies!

Four puppies!!

They are adorable!

Mom,where is Milo?

Mom,where is Milo?

Why didn’t you tell me?

I was scared that you might kill Milo as well,

That's why I kept Milo hidden.

You....

Go and give this to her.

Here,take it.

My son values all lives equally and cherishes this land.

Lord Karuppa, please guide him and protect him
