Goat fighting

A traditional sport of Southern India, deeply intertwined with our lifestyle and culture

A valourous sport that strengthens the bond between man and animal

It was historically regarded as a rehearsal for the Tamils' battlefield tactics

By the sheer ferocity of the Tamil people's fighting goats.

Even the British were intimidated

In Tamil households, these goats were like one of their own children

During marriage, the goat was a serving companion for the bride

It was a long-standing tradition to provide a goat as a dowry to a bride

During a fight, the strength and technical maneuvers of the goat are guided by

The 'Kattari'

It is the resonance and vibrations in the Kattari's voice

That energize and drive the goat forward

Months before a match

Based on the goat's age, height and teeth-count

The opponent is selected

He then provides the goat with a specialized diet and physical training

A regimen that applies to the Kattari as well

The goat and its handler sharing the same mindset and physical resilience

Leads to the path of victory!

Goat fighting

Can last for up to 200 head-butts

If both goats strike each other equally for 200 head-butts

They are declared an "Equal Pair"

If the goats’ horns become entangled during the fight

the referees separate them and perform a head to head

If they tangle again

The goats will be released by hands

if the opponent goat is driven out of the arena

Or forced to surrender

Or killed

A goat and its Kattari are declared winners

The winning goat and its handler

Beyond the physical prizes, they gain immense honor and social status

Conversely, for the losers, friends and relatives offer humiliation instead of comfort.

This shame is why many hands that once held a goat's leash eventually gripped a knife

Even today, many blood-stained knives

Remain as living evidence on the goat-fighting grounds

When valor mixes with sport, honor becomes the priority

And when honor is at stake, blood will inevitably spill on our soil.

With the Lily flower

I weave them into endless songs of praise

The stories of my land's valor would never run dry!

Madurai is our home and look at the neighboring towns, standing paralyzed in awe

As the red dust rises...

As the blood reaches a boiling point...

As the horned demons tear up the earth..

As the Kattari slaps his thigh and lets out a roar..

Listen! It isn't about whether your goat or mine takes the trophy

It's about the Tamil Heritage!

Just as our food is never short on salt, sourness, or spice

our Madurai people will never be short on bravery!

The Great Goat-Fight is about to begin!

Sir is here

Greetings sakkarai, welcome! - We have been waiting for you

Are we ready to start?

Ready?

The great human being

Our beloved uncle

Honourable Sakkarai sir

We welcome you on behalf of our goat fighting committee

Click photos! Come on

Greetings, everyone!

The game that the kings played back then

Is still played by us today

As long as this world keeps spinning

My Tamil generations will keep playing this.

No one can stop us! Nothing can destroy this!

I wish to make this clear to everyone

This goat fight is our identity

To lose this identity would be tantamount to our extinction

So instead of gambling, taking up weapons, or stealing

if you can conduct the goat fight in a fair way, do it, otherwise, don’t

Hey girl, why can’t we see you? Your favourite RJ Parvathy is here

And you’re listening to 59 Voice FM, Madurai!

The hero of Madurai’s goat fights!

When he arrives, the entire arena trembles!

Hey! He has arrived!

The lion is here

Pullai, lets go

His goat has never lost a fight. Ever.

Karthi is his name.

“Cabaret” is the title Madurai district has given him.

Cabaret Karthi has entered the arena with his pet boy, Atom Bomb!

Hey? Get going

Clear the way, brother’s coming through!

Make way!

Move .... Make way

This Jockey medal was awarded by the white people for our courage

We give it every year to the best-playing goat in the arena.

For five years continuously, this jockey medal has been won by…

Sivabanam? - Brother?

I have a question! - What is it, brother?

Every time we enter the arena, the place is ready for bloodshed

When you and Aton Bomb step into the arena, brother it’s gonna be fire

Welcome Karthi! - Hello uncle!

This fight is for Madurai don’t lose it.

Let the game ignite!

Lets go!

Karthi, We want a spectacular game!

On one side

stands Manimaran, who went till the Bay of Bengal and made goat keepers scream.

Karthi, his goat looks fierce!

Hit hard from the start and take over

Fierce?

After coming into Madurai, can their picture even run?

Brother, don’t lose the lorry on this match.

Smash them! Hit hard, Atom Bomb let’s go!

Manimaran, who wants to win even at the cost of his life.

Atom bomb, come on man

Hit it hard!

Headbutt him

Atom bomb! Smash him off!

That’s it, come on!

Don’t let him slip away

Smash him

Come on Atom bomb! Don’t let him win! You can do this

Strike hard and finish it

Hit him with everything you’ve got

Come on!

Yes! We did it!

Karthi brother! What a match! Incredible!

Manimara? Take it huh! - You’ve taken him down

Come on, my boy!

Karthi?

Bring in the next token

Give me the key!

Brother?

Poor Manimaran, he’s in a rough spot.

He depends on that lorry to transport coconuts for a living

if he hands it over to us too, what will he do?

Yeah, poor guy!

Manimaran, you’ve got to thrive as well, right?

Keep that lorry to yourself

Do this instead of that.

Circle the arena twice!

Only with bare body!

Hey, get out of the arena

First, get out

The last five pairs for today’s arena.

Those five pairs, be ready.

I won’t repeat myself.

Kaali!

We have arrived!

You could’ve moved even slower

Have you no conscience?

Come on, make it fast

I’m out of breath after pushing the auto this far

Don’t rant about being breathless or painful

Kaali, we’re at the arena

If you’d carried Kaali by hand instead of making us push

we could’ve arrived earlier, right?

What have you learned all these days from this man?

Don’t you know Kaali will get tired?

And you knew kaali would get tired, right?

Why didn’t you just take another auto?

Why another auto? We have ours, right? - Get down Kaali

Make sure this stays intact

Token 22 is moving, brother!

Come on Kaali - Hurry up brother!

With all of you together, what more could I expect? - Shut up man

You start at 9 AM with a busted auto for a function that began at 7

But you blame me for everything?

Brother tell him to shut his mouth - You guys will never change

Get down

Like people swear, you’re cursed.

One glance at you, and our vehicle gave up on us - Who asked you to look into my face?

Check if he’s alive!

The goat’s ready for the ring. - Hey get up!

Muniyandi! Wake up

Lying like a pregnant frog!

Hello Ramar!

Shameless! Using someone else’s drum as your pillow?

Someone else’s ?

Hey, lone fool!

Did you think I’d lose like you in a single hit in this goat fight?

Hey! Why are you talking like this?

I won this, alright? - You won?

You made a deal with me. How can you fight someone else?

This is very wrong, brother

Are you for real? Do you even know how many times I called?

You come whenever you please, and I’m supposed to wait?

Keep your token to yourself

I trusted you, bro… and you stabbed me in the back!

Do you even have a heart?

If the bride’s late, you’ll just marry her mom instead?

Get lost, you loser! - Hit him!

Headbutt him - don’t hold back

Drive your head into him

Dad always said

‘If you Grab a knife, show them blood,

if you’re in an arena, show them your fight’

But today… we couldn’t put on the fight, right?

Its alright, forget it - Shall we get going?

Karthi brother!

Manimaran’s lorry is mad cool! - We have our very own Cabaret Karthi

I’ve instructed them to put your name sticker on it.

All the guys are about to lose it

I feel so full inside

Calm down!

Shoot it properly, or I’ll break you

Keerthi... we’re rolling

Say “goat fight” and his name pops up. Madurai’s jockey is here.

Hi sir!

Hi!

How did you get the tag ‘Cabaret Karthi’?

They call me Cabaret Karthi because of atom bomb!

Let’s see what’s going on

Watching Atom Bomb fight, people are left in awe

Greetings brother! - Greetings!

Sir, this is my friend Ramar

Greetings sir! - This is when you come to pick a pair?

Pairing?

His feed is imported

Hey?

I called them here

Why?

Ayyavu?

In the arena, everyone was disappointed that the fight ended so soon

That’s why, for them I arranged for a additional fight

Cut the chatter, you’re really annoying!

We have no pair for your goat - Hey! keep quiet

Come here

Which area are you from?

Othakadai, brother

What do you do?

I drive a share auto

What?

Share auto driver?

Hey, Logu?

Don’t you know who to bring in for the fight?

Picking a random person from streets?

Shut up!

Take him away - Listen to me

I’m telling you right? We can’t arrange any pair for you, you may leave

Instead of pairing by the goat, you’re pairing by the man?

Does your goat only fight the one who comes in a car

And not the one comes in an auto?

Hey? - Hey! Calm down

What’s with the sound?

Listen! - Brother?

Does a thousand bucks equals ten bucks?

No!

Sivabanam? - Brother?

Are Dinosaur and Bulldozer the same?

No brother!

You think your goat is equal to my Atom Bomb?

Bro?

My goat only fights the real deal

My goat’ll not take on any gutter‑grazing goat.

Get lost!

Didn’t you hear my brother? Get going! - Ramar, let’s just go!

Lets go brother!

Brother?

I don’t know if your goat’s an Atom Bomb or a Hydrogen Bomb

Its just a goat, that’s it

Forget the talk, can we pair it or no?

Want a pair?

I’ll give you one - Hey? Sivabanam?

I told you there’s no pair here for you, get going

Brother, come on lets go - Shut your mouth and get lost

I said leave

They were the first ones asked for the match.

What kinda crap are they talking now?

Don’t say we’re crap, okay?

I’ll break your mouth - Hey? Share auto?

Bro, the camera’s still rolling.

A beggar finds a bag

when he opened it, he saw a bomb inside.

The bomb will go off in three seconds

Will he throw it away and run without looking back

Or is he going to die in the blast? Lets see

One!

Two!

Don’t do this sir

Three!

Just listen to me, let’s go

So the beggar didn’t run away

Oh you banged?

Let’s see how your goat bangs

Karthi?

Hey?

Get in the ring!

I have some happy news for everyone!

We all thought the goat-fights were over for today

But look one more pair has just been matched!

Our 'Kabra' Karthi is back, folks!

And who is he up against?

It’s Otthakkadai Ramar!

'Atom Bomb' has stepped into the arena once again..

And in just a few moments, that Atom Bomb is going to go BOOM

Crush everything in its path!

Whether the decision taken by Otthakkadai Ramar is right or wrong

We will find out in just a few moments!

This is the final battle of the arena today!

Bro, why did you even agree to compete against them?

All he’s got is a plate to beg

Only we’re going to win brother

Looks like he will perform a penance

We knocked out King Kong in just three headbutts

You show up with a temple monkey and start showing off?

Ramar’s new goat is staring down Kabra Karthi...

Bawa, I think you rushed into that decision

Hey, why can’t you stay quiet?

He’s not even worth being an opponent

Still I’m saying this

Make the opponent piss in fear

Atom bomb! Come on man

Hey! All you guys filming there, you have a solid content

This is going to be a fire-breathing battle, folks!

Looks like these two have had a bit of a clash

Time is not on Ramar’s side today

He’s just shoved a wild lizard down his own dhoti!

Come on brother, come on!

Bring it!

Come on Kaali!

Kaali! You can do this!

Hold the goat

Let it go!

Go on, beat him down!

Come on! Smash him

Take him out

Take him out

Beat him down!

Strike! come on, strike

Kaali, take him down

Show him what you got! - Come on hit him hard

Yes, beat him!

This was unnecessary for Ramar

Hey...catch him

Grab his horn

Kaali, come on, we will take him down

Okay let go let go - Move aside move

come on Kaali, Bang - Beat him down!

Strike... bang.... come on hit

Yes! Just like that, hit him Kaali - Perfect, show him what you got

Come on, give him the smash - Yes, come on

Hit him Kaali - Go smash him!

Come on, Kaali, finish him

They are clashing and smashing, folks! Kali has found his power..

And the Atom Bomb is starting to lose!

Karthi brother, what happened?

Ramar, you’re quite a strong opponent!

Strike now!

Come on Kaali, give him that hit!

Hit him, come on!

Strike him!

Charge! Charge! Strike him!

Hit him, Kaali!

Just like that! Strike him, Kali!

Don't stop! Charge and strike, Atom Bomb!

Come on, Kali!

Super! Super!

He’s crushing it, man... - don't just play. finish it off, brother!"

Every single hit is like a thunderbolt! Strike, Kali, strike!

Kaali is chasing him down and smashing him! Separate them

Separate them now! - Come on!

Hey! Sixteen head-butts have been completed so far..

And here comes the seventeenth!

knock it down bawa!

Kaali we must win!

One!

Two!

Three!

Go!

Show no mercy! Hit him hard

Seventee....

Atom bomb’s horn is broken?

Oh no!

Hey, Ramar?

Who are you man?

Where have you been all these days?

Kaali! We did it brother

You broke atom bomb’s horn?

Look, brother! I'm going to stab him

Listen to that roar from the crowd...

Let go!

It’s only right to kill him!

I will kill him

Othakadai Ramar has made karthi lose!

This is going to be all over YouTube and WhatsApp now.

That was one hell of a fight!

Hey Ramar!

Give that!

You’ve become a hero in a single day, man!

Ramar, this is not just any medal

A history!

Your name lives in history now, Ramar

After this, you will be the

Madurai Jockey!

Yayy! We’re the Madurai jockey!

Congratulations!

Brother, bless the goat!

With this beat we’ll shake Othakadai tonight

Our Madurai Jockey!

Eh Kaali

Come on dance for the beat! - Yes! Like that

He’s the king of charm

Welcome dear!

Enough guys! Stop

Kaali! My son!

That’s a medal to be proud of

You’ve raised Othakadai’s game

Boss! Is your son the only one with a mouth?

what about the rest of us?

You claim the fight? My son is the one who fought and won

What’s with all that talk?

So if Dhoni hits a six, you’d say it’s the bat, not him?

Tell me!

If the goat’s strength is its front head, and the jockey’s strength is his throat

Together that’s a goat fight.

Get going man!

In five minutes, their ad would have played

These guys had to show up now!

Hey Ini! Did you see that? The Medal belongs to the Uncle

Yes, do it like that!

Ini, do it for us too, drive away the evil eyes on us as well

My little love!

Kaali are you happy?

Yes, come on!

Come on!

Hey sis, look at what I’m holding, Madurai jockey

Sure, as if you’re the king of Madurai now

Dad, Kaali was on fire in the arena!

We’ve only seen this medal for years

Now holding it, you know how it feels, right?

Today, actually the arena was bit tough, dad

With you by my side, there’s nothing to fear

This Madurai Jockey is ours now

I see you flexing now show us a dance, man

He looks all innocent, but he smashed his opponent’s horn, Dad

I actually feel bad for that

Dad, Puyal’s grandson is even fiercer than Puyal!

Tired from playing all day, get us some water sister

Yes sister! - Get us some water

Just get to your studying

Don’t turn out to be useless like them

What? Useless? - Hey?

Can’t you go to college?

Roaming with these fools?

Come on sister - You should’ve seen the arena today!

I have better things to do

You jobless idiots! - Daughter?

We brought the Madurai Jockey home with our win, and you’re complaining?

Yeah, that win’s supposed to feed us tomorrow, huh?

Okay leave it, hey give that to sister

A big drum for you!

Give it to your daughter as gift! - What is this?

Only a drum every year?

You expect an audi car as a prize for winning a goat fight?

Exactly Bawa!

Sister, enough with the nagging

What’s there to eat?

We’re starving - Hot idlis are ready, come and eat

Idly?

We can’t eat it, have it for yourself

We are going to eat parotta, right bawa? - Brother?

Let’s go straight to Aarumugam’s shop

Each of us gets runny eggs, parottas soaked in salna, as we toast our victory!

That’s it my darling! Isn’t he awesome?

Don’t eat the parotta , it’s a trouble that will stick to your gut like rubber!

Sister, Madurai and jasmine may part ways, but parotta? Never!

Our guts are iron, given by God ! we will keep grinding and hustling

Say it just like that, bawa!

Absolutely, Iron Gut, get out there and grind

Okay how many for you? - Four for me

Only two for you but six for me

Yes brother! - Four!

Alright, 20 parottas and 4 runny eggs, lets go?

Twenty parottas? Four runny eggs?

For him?

Four! - Just two for him!

Sister, serve the idlis

What is this Ramar? - Idli?

That’s a guy from our town, man!

Our hometown bus right here!

Uncle, I’m in bus stand

Mom said she’s arriving soon

so I’m heading out to go pick her up

I’ll bringe her along

Check out the KK boys!

Hey, broken horn, what’s up?

Unable to bear the humiliation, is cabaret Karthi hiding inside the lorry?

That’s all brother, they’re done forever!

In one single day, both medal and the horns are gone

Othakadai guy butchered you, huh?

Sir, Rajangam and his men are mocking us, sir

Hey, shut your mouth

Kaali, go!

Karthi brother!

The same guys who once stood aside watching us win every fight

Today, those cowards mock us. It’s humiliating

Hey? - Hey Sivabanam?

I’ll smash your mouth to pieces

Why are you even bringing this up now?

Don’t try showing your bravery on me

Where was all that courage in the arena?

Hey?

I told you to shut your mouth

Kaali, strike!

You keep repeating the same thing and driving me mad!

Leave it, boys

Can’t you keep quiet?

You’re the reason for all this trouble

Always flying off the handle for nothing.

Kaali

Karthi said you graze in the gutter, right?

The moment I heard that, my blood boiled.

I should’ve finished him then and there.

But your temperament is worse than mine!

Come here

Don’t get worked up

you’ll end up with high blood pressure.

Oh no, brother! Karthi brother!

Look!

Everyone’s blaming me for this whole mess.

That’s why I wanted to stab him there itself

Yeah right.

And after stabbing him, you’d be sitting in jail.

Then his uncle would declare, “No more goatfights ever!”

After that, you couldn’t even look at the Jockey medal again.

Will you be happy then?

Shut up, will you?

Better to die with pride killing him than live like this.

Karthi anna, this insult won’t heal.

Just say the word, and I’ll bring you his head and his goat’s

Say it, brother

Sit down, you fool

My brother has never sat broken like this before

I can’t just sit and watch

I’ll end my life. - Hey, Sivabala?

Let me die! Let me go!

I want to die, leave me

I said let me go

I can’t live with it. - Quiet!

Brother!

Brother… it’s unbearable.

Sivabanam?

This isn’t something that ends with a knife. It ends in the arena.

I tell him to turn off the light and sleep, but he never listens

No wonder the electricity bill’s so high.

And you ? what kind of meeting are you having at this hour?

You’ve turned every month into three days of Shivaratri!

Why don’t you take care of this by morning?

If you get a fever tonight, you’ll get injection after days or what?

My brother’s tired from fighting again.

Get going, sister - You’ll never change.

Sister?

What?

I’ve been in so many goatfights,

But I’ve never once broken a goat’s horn

Poor goat!

You know all this, yet you still let the goats fight, right?

You came dancing all the way, didn’t you?

Back then, I didn’t understand

But now… my mind feels uneasy

Poor goat, he must be suffering right?

I feel really bad

Stop rambling and go to sleep.

Sister-in-law, is that a rangoli of underwear?

It’s the lamp..

A lamp? If I rub it, will a Genie appear?

No, my husband will appear! take him

What am I supposed to do with that man?

Hey, stop pestering that girl and leave her alone

Just kidding!

Ini, you want to eat some Appam?

Appam? Yuck!

You never even brushed your teeth this morning

Who, me? I brushed first thing in the morning!

Hey, do you think goats and cows sit around brushing their teeth?

Go inside and see for yourself!

What’s going on? - What could it be?

Let's see what 'miracle' is happening...

Hey! This is just unfair, man!

That happens all the time, kid

Kaali!

You’ve got two cavities now

Don't go eating any more sweets from that girl Ini

Okay?

Look at him giving advice like he’s a dentist

Bak-bak

Bak-bak!

Oh! bak-bak-bak...

Bak-bak!

Oh my god!

Stop right there! - Catch her!

Stay still, you little brat! - She’s running like a little mouse

This is a daily headache with you. Are you ever going to listen to us?

Oh, and do you guys listen to anything I say?

What exactly should we listen?

Everyone in town calls me 'Sticker-Ears', when will you pierce my ears?

See your maternal uncle?

Ask him that!

Hey, Ramar!

This child has been crying about this for six months

Can you hear her or not?

Give it to me

Ini, come here

Iniya, look

In exactly two months

we are going to hold your ear-piercing ceremony at the Paandi Temple

okay?

There, your uncle has given his word! Now open your mouth

say 'Ah'... that's it!

Good girl..

Hey Ramar!

I heard you took down the 'Madurai Jockey

No celebration or treat for us?

Come to the 'Top' tonight

I’ll treat you big

What’s this Looks like you’ve made this rental auto your own today

Yes, yes, exactly! - This is how you move up in life. Stay blessed

Oh no! Watch out, watch out, brother!

Yesterday it was my auto... today it’s his auto?

If you carry 'Bad Luck' on your head, it will show its impact

Shut up, okay?

Hey! Can't you just keep your mouth shut?

My business is ruined today

Hey Tarpaulin! Shall I give you an idea?

Hand over all your passengers to me

And in return,to wherever you say

Here

These two guys will push your vehicle

Madam - Again today?

Please get into that auto over there

Bawa! What is this?

It’s just exercise, man!

Start pushing

Brother, it makes sense for this guy to push the auto

Why should I push it?

Because I’m your friend

Am I supposed to spend my whole life pushing autos for you?

Hey! please get down..

Ramar?

It’s fine if you ask us to push our auto...

But now you're making us push everyone else's too!

Oh, just go, man!

If I knew it was going to be like this

I would have stayed in bed today! - Oh Lord Perumal!

First, please save me from these people!

Goddess!

Hey, get in!

How?

Mr. Auto-driver... please move over a bit and sit. Let that girl sit down

Get in! I’m telling you it’s fine..

Oh, why are you making such a fuss, girl?

I’m not asking you to elope with the boy

I’m just telling you to sit down! Sit!

What a fuss!

Just get in, okay?

Could you please move over a bit?

That’s it! Why were you hesitating so much for this?

He’s making us push the vehicle while he pushes off with a pretty girl!

Excuse me?

You can sit closer

No, it’s alright... I'm fine

No, really Come sit properly

No... it’s okay

Hey! saying ‘it’s okay’ is fine, just don’t send us all to heaven

Watch the road and drive - You have to drive, come on

Look at your hair! It’s like a horse’s tail

Don't you ever apply any oil - Sister, what are you doing?

Is it good for a young girl to have her hair all wild like a ghost?

What are you doing now? - Old witch!

she does good things and bad things all at once!

That’ll be 50 rupees, ma. It's my first sale of the day

You have it? - Hmmm

Oh no! Here

At least give me the balance

I'll tie it up and give it to you!

Oh my god!

Oh my!

This Southern girl in all her finery walks by, spinning my thoughts

Like a dragonfly hovering Over a white goat’s back, She glides past

Oh, this fearless enchantress, She struck me like a thunderbolt

With her saree fluttering in the wind she bloomed in my heart

She bent my heart like a round bangle

She ground my soul like a pile of spices!

She’s like a spicy curry simmering before me, Boiling over with heat!

Why did I look at her? She’s a sudden high.

This Southern girl in all her finery walks by, spinning my thoughts

Like a dragonfly hovering Over a white goat’s back, She glides past

Oh, this fearless enchantress, She struck me like a thunderbolt

With her saree fluttering in the wind she bloomed in my heart

Like a lone palm in the forest, she stands rooted in my chest

she is a soft woven mat of pure affection

Like the stars in the midnight sky, She makes all my dreams sparkle

she is the moon itself in all her beauty

There is no one else like her, With a complexion so rare.

She’s a woman of impeccable character.

Watching the way she talks, Even language itself begins to flirt

When I see her in person, My heart just struggles and aches

Oh, this Southern girl

Oh, this Southern girl

This Southern girl in all her finery walks by, spinning my thoughts

Like a dragonfly hovering Over a white goat’s back, She glides past

Oh, this fearless enchantress, She struck me like a thunderbolt

With her saree fluttering in the wind she bloomed in my heart

She bent my heart like a round bangle

She ground my soul like a pile of spices!

She’s like a spicy curry simmering before me, Boiling over with heat!

Why did I look at her? She’s a sudden high.

12 - 03 - 2020

In the 32nd bout, we made the 'Afzal' goat scream for mercy, remember that?

That was the day I earned the title 'Khabra Karthi'

Brother, I don't like what you're doing

Let’s just slaughter that guy first

then we can worry about Atom bomb’s retirement...

Our Atom bomb!

Hey, stop talking about stabbing and cutting.

Shut up!

Just listen to me, Karthi. Think it over

Atom bomb can still fight well. There’s no need for retirement yet.

If Atombomb enters the field again with half-broken horns

People won't see my Jockey Medal

They will only see that local nobody’s face!

Aiyyavu, shame is like acid

Once it touches you, you carry the scar until you die

Otherwise

You kill the one who gave it to you so no trace remains

Go... go and announce the retirement

Atom bomb!

It’s nothing you don’t already know

In any arena

For any goat or any handler,

The only gift our Atom bomb ever gave was fear

Ramar, did you believe me when I told you?

Look they are holding a retirement function for Atom bomb

For the last seven years, not just in Madurai, but across every Southern district

This sin is going to haunt you, Ramar. Go ask them what's really happening

On behalf of Khabra Karthi and all of us

I officially announce Atom bomb’s retirement

For all the handlers and goat-fighting lovers,

Food and liquor are ready!

Everyone must eat, celebrate, and honor this occasion before you leave

Sir...Is this really the age for Atom bomb to retire?

Just because he lost one fight, is it right to do this?

This is wrong, sir

Come here, you...! - Dhamu, hold this.

What business is it of yours?

He is our goat, and we will do whatever we want

Who are you to question us? - Hey, wait!

I'm not talking to you move aside

Jones, take him away

Don’t talk without understanding what’s at stake

You're doing this just because he lost to me, aren't you?

That’s why I’m questioning this!

Don’t you know, sir?

Only half his horn is broken

He can still fight brilliantly!

Understand what I'm telling you, kid..

Sir, just tell me the price of the goat. I will settle the amount myself!

Greetings, Ramar!

Look at how much concern he has for our Atom bomb

And you are all ganging up and shouting at him?

You fools

Mr. Share auto! How generous!

Now, what was it you were saying just now?

Karthi brother, you are the biggest goat-handler in all of Madurai

If you start doing things like this

Okay? - everyone else will follow your lead

Soon, there won’t be any good fighting goats left

That’s not it...

You said one last thing just now

What was it?

What was it, Aiyavu?

It’s nothing, Karthi..

Brother

He’s asking how much our goat costs

Shut up!

Ah! Correct!

So, you want to 'settle' the deal, huh?

Atom bomb?

Come here!

Take a good look!

This goat terrified the whole of Madurai

How much will you give me for him?

Hey, just tell me

How much can you give?

Brother!

Brother, right now, with me...

You’re asking to buy my Atom bomb, huh?

You wanted a goat, right?

I'll give him to you for free

Take him and get out!

From now on, you'll have everything in your life...

Except for peace of mind!

So, Karthi

You finally found the way to your uncle's house today?

Nothing you’re doing seems right to me lately.

I heard

You slaughtered Atom bomb?

Don't let your hatred for that guy Ramar

Ruin your common sense. That's all I have to say

Uncle

This is your Jada, right?

This goat’s been dead for over 30 years

If I drop this right now, it’ll shatter into a hundred pieces, won't it?

Hey!

What is this?

Look at that, Uncle...

Your face completely changed

You can't even stand to see this falling down

I slaughtered Atombomb with my own hands

Imagine how I feel!

Uncle!

The Othakkadai arena opens in a month.

People from our PTS group will have a discussion about this

You make sure it happens

Othakkadai?

Isn't the next fight at Aaviyur?

Othakkadai competition is still three months away..

No, Uncle.

I’ve already spoken to them. It's moving up.

Karthi!

I know exactly why you're doing this.

Have some patience

Winning and losing in a goat fight isn't everything

Uncle!

People in this 'cattle-minded' town can swallow victory or defeat...

But they will chew on humiliation forever.

The Othakkadai field is set in one month, uncle

Make the arrangements

Hey Karthi?

I’ve finished cooking, come eat before you go

Maybe next time, Aunt.

Karthi, listen

You must come for our girl’s wedding

Even if you don't invite me, I'll be there, Aunt

Look

A man who can slaughter a goat can slaughter a person too.

He’s only holding back because of the respect he has for your word

Just do what he asks

Go inside..

Sister, how much longer?

We still have to go to the temple

Okay, come

She’s always late - That’s true

Hey, I’m getting messages from an unknown ID

Who is it?

Ramar

Goat - fitter?

Wait, you don’t recognize him?

It’s that auto guy who held you like a superman that day

Oh right?

She saw it! She saw it, brother!

But she hasn't sent anything back

Sister-in-law must be busy

In matters of the heart, we have to take the lead.

Why no reply?

And let's wait

Hey?

Hey, he’s asking Why no reply?

Ask him, 'Why on earth should I reply to you?

No... that’s too mean

It'll be like a slap in the face, we can’t do that

I’ll just send a voice note

Hello?

Who is this?

What do you want?

A voice message! Brother, a voice message just arrived

Why are you screaming like that?

Who are you?

What do you want

Bro?

What bro?

Bro it seems - Tell her to call me Ramar

Send a voice message just like she did

Why should you talk?

Video call her and tell her

Hey, what happened?

Its a video call, tell her quickly

Brother! Brother! She's about to pick up

Hey why don’t you talk?

Hurry up!

Instead of talking you’re washing your face?

He's video calling me - Pick it up! Pick it up

Call got cut, brother

This is something we knew already

Couldn't you have told me before clicking?

I'm drenched in sweat

Useless fellow

If you guys showed this much focus in your studies,

You’d be District Collectors by now

See, Madurai’s CM is talking - Hey, you shut up

I cut the call - Why?

Tell her it was a 'pocket dial'

Feeling bad because you can’t meet goat fitter?

Its written all over your face!

What?

He is your 'Bro', so I'm just going to block him

Wait, why did you block him now?

Brother! Sister-in-law blocked you

He got you a divorce without spending a single rupee

This guy is more cursed than you!

Hey! Why is everyone blaming me? I'll kill you

Lets meet her in person, say sorry, and slowly woo her.

Will that work out?

Definitely!

Trust me, Brother

Okay, let's go...

Yes brother, let’s go!

Hey, stick to your business!

Meenu darling?

Looks like you’ve started swimming in heart?

Ready... Action!

Hi Meenu

I'm Ramar.

No, Brother! Say it in English!

English? Okay

Hi Meenu

I am Ramar - Wow!

That sounds great - Bawa?

How long are you going to keep saying the same thing?

I have a great idea

If you do as I say

If you say what I tell you

Meenu will immediately hug you and give you a kiss!

Okay, let's hear this 'Great Idea

Listen...

Walk up to Meenu with a attitude and say

Look here, Meenu...

The very first day I saw you I already bought Pampers

For the baby that’s going to be born to us

How is it?

Brother... Sister-in-law

Do whatever you want

Hey?

Man... I'm getting those 'butterflies' in my stomach..

Bro, before you speak, the heart races

Once you speak, it’ll fly like a butterfly.

Yes brother, just go now!

What brother?

I forgot everything I was supposed to say

Bro, just say whatever comes to mind!

Yes brother, just go!

Go! move it

Come on!

It's your wedding on the line

Can I talk tomorrow?

Tomorrow, OthaMuthu will show up, is that okay?

Then your love story is history!

Go, bro!

Come on!

That’s right - Meenakshi?

My leg slipped and my hand went...

He’s discussing about losing legs and hands?

You ruined the reputation of my bawa!

Hey, stay quiet. Big brother will handle it

My hand slipped and called you

He took my phone and video- called you without me knowing

I’m sorry

I’ve warned him.

He won’t do it again

Who are you?

Who?

Me? Ramar!

The goat fighter!

Instagram?

Oh?

So, you’re that goat fitter?

I’m not a fitter

I’m a fighter!

Goat fighter!

Whatever!

You didn’t make the call

But who messaged me?

He did

Who?

There, sitting in the auto..

Is this the guy whose hand slipped?

Hold this

I’ll ask the "Sir" myself what’s going on

Come on.

Sit down, you bald-head!

You rascal!

You video-called a girl you don’t even know?

You talk big in message

But you can’t open your mouth in person?

He’s just shy looking at you.

I thought they’d be rolling on the ground fighting, but they’ve joined forces

Don’t you get it?

Hey Kaali?

From tomorrow, keep your phone fully charged.

Keep the auto tank full of diesel

We have a lot to talk about

And a lot of places to roam

Okay dear?

Hey, Kaali?

Tank’s already full

The phone’s charge is at 100% right now

Muniyandi brother?

Looks like your goat is panting heavily?

He’s probably been using the goat for "breeding" services

That’s why it’s worn out

Muniyandi brother you’ve started doing this business too?

Hey, I didn't take him there!

This guy lunges at any female goat on streets

Look at him

Just ignore him

Don’t forget to collect your token on your way home

Alright, let’s go

Meet you in the arena!

Get lost, man! - Who is this guy?

Greetings, sir - Greetings

How are you doing?

Tell me...

It’s about the upcoming Othakada Goat Fight...

This is about that

I just finished a pairing with Muniyandi brother

Come on, son

You’re famous all over Madurai. Why team up such guy?

Sir

Sir, I know exactly why you are here.

There is no chance for that

Please leave

Look Ramar, just listen to what I’m saying...

Just leave, sir

Hey?

Get going!

Come on!

Muniyandi?

Listen up with your ears sharp

When an eagle flying in the sky

Descends to the ground, what does it mean?

Brother?

It means it’s decided to fight the snake, right?

Yes brother!

Now, if the snake isn’t afraid of the eagle

It can fight back - Correct brother!

Or, it can crawl like a coward into its hole and hide.

The snake has to decide now

Am I right?

So...

who are you pairing up with?

I’m not pairing with anyone, brother

Scram!

Thank God!

Hey, Share-Auto!

Give me your lucky number.

Ramar and I have an unfinished score from '17.

Give me the 17

Share auto, take this

You and your goat better show up at Othakada

To fight with me

Okay?

Hey, you Fish Market?

I’m still trying to wash off the sin of pairing with you once.

If I pair with you again

Even my Kaali, won’t respect me. It’ll spit on my face

Hey! I’ll finish you right here on this field

Come here! Let’s settle this right now!

If not for my patience, I’d have broken your jaw for that talk

Hey man, if the loser calls for a rematch, you’re bound to pair up, aren’t you?

Jones! Shut up or I’ll slit your throat!

Hey?

You won by luck and now you're talking like a big shot?

If you’ve really got the balls, come to the field

Pair your goat against mine!

Karthi, come on.

One day, you’ll get what's coming to you.

Hey, bawa?

You’re looking for unnecessary trouble

Even after we’ve said so much, you’re refusing to listen, aren't you?

Why would he listen to us?

He’s become a big shot now...

Shut up and just drink, man

What? Just drink?

You think I’m following you around just for a free drink?

My heart is racing because of what you’ve done

Do you realize there are two young girls at home?

Hey?

Don't you dare bring my family into this

I know exactly what I’m doing

What do you know?

What exactly do you know?

It’s this kind of arrogant talk that got your father and your uncle hacked to death!

Hey, subbu?

Mark my words

This guy will be hacked to death by Karthi himself.

You?

Don’t talk trash, old man

I’ll punch you so hard your jaw will never be the same!

Sit down, just sit down, bawa

What wrong did he say?

Are you taking that cursed man’s side?

This guy is the reason for all these troubles.

What did I do?

What did you do?

Ask him for the goat’s price, we will buy it for goat fighting

Sir?

I was minding my own business

You’re the one who preached about sin and virtue

You trapped me with that psycho

Bad luck started follwing me since then

I beg you!

If you want me to be happy

Just stay away from me

No sir

He's just talking out of the booze

Sit down!

Stay happy!

Periyasamy, listen to me man

Hey, bawa?

He’s a poor guy

Sir... sir...

Sir, wait please listen to me!

Please never come back!

He’s just rambling because he’s wasted - I don’t ever want to see your face again!

Hey, stop! Just listen to what I’m saying

If it weren't for you..

He’s not the type of person to talk like this

Did you think I couldn't handle a goat fight?

This son of Vazhivittan will charge in alone!

Get lost

Hey, Ramar? You look wasted

Let me tell you something...

Ten of the best hitters in Madurai

Are lining up to tear someone apart brutally

They’re armed with swords and Rambo knives

High on pills, just waiting to pull the steel...

Here’s the twist

The guy who ordered the hit suddenly called it off.

Those ten guys were fuming!

Right?

Listen, Karthi

I’ve got pride

My goat has pride too

If you’ve got the guts

Show up at the Ottakada fight

And when you come, bring a bottle of Fevicol

Because your goat’s horns are going to be flying in the wind!

Come on!

If I had seen this video even five minutes later

Your head would be rolling on the ground by now

Ramar

You think I only know goat fighting?

I know rowdyism better than that

Pure Madurai rowdyism

You’ve set the pair up!

I’m setting the terms for this match

Whoever loses on the field leaves their goat behind and walks away

What do you say?

Karthi?

So, you’ve already decided to hand your ram over to me?

Fine.

We’ll see to that on the field.

You drunkard!

You just went out and placed a bet?

Is Kaali some toy for your games?

A toy?

Sister, goat fighting isn’t a game to me

It’s an obsession

My very birth was for this

Look here—don't let your obsession turn Kaali into a sacrifice

Karthi?

Did you see our Jaguar?

He’s in peak form... standing tall like an elephant

Aiyyavu?

By the 17th clash, that goat’s story should be over

What do you say?

Why bother going all the way to Ottakada for this, brother?

We could have finished him right here in Aviyur.

Hey?

whether you’re doing a charity or slitting a throat,

It only commands respect if you do it on the enemy’s turf

Everything is perfectly ready

Karthi, Jaguar is sharp and focused

Brother, at least give a call to Othamuthu

Right Bawa

Poor guy... if we leave him, who else does he have?

Talk about that cursed man one more time

You’ll see a different side of my anger.

Keep your mouth shut

Do whatever you want, but Jaguar better make that field scream

That’s all, Watch what happens this time!

Go, go! Move it

That’s it...Perfect!

Isn’t he Bhagyam’s son? - Yes, Sakkarai

Today’s fight is going to be explosive, brother

Bawa, looking at the field... it doesn’t feel right. I’m scared

Hey, you jinx! Are you filling the place of lone butt right now?

Shut it! If anything happens

we aren’t just losing the bet we’re losing our Kaali

First, stop talking like that. You’re scaring everyone

What’s there to be scared of?

Even the wind blowing here is in my favor.

They think they can brush past me in my own ground?

Let’s go!

That’s the spirit, brother! Come on!

Come on, come on!

If Ramar’s acting this crazy, Karthi hasn’t even begun.

Brother this was unnecessary

We could’ve made the usual entry. You refused

The Madurai Mandi gang is here, what happened?

Look at how everyone is staring at us now, brother.

Don't get cocky just looking at the crowd.

Focus on your business, Come on!

Fevicol bottle, hey!

Move aside dude!

I telling you, let it go

I said leave!

Enough! Karthi, let it go. Settle this on the field

Save the dance. You haven’t entered the arena

You'll be silenced forever

Hey! Listen okay?

I’ve already put a stop to your games.

From now on, I’m the one who plays

Step aside, Just stop it

If you two have a problem, go kill each other outside

Why bring your curse here?

Everyone else finishes their match quietly and leaves

You two are the only ones making a scene

Someone take this guy to the hospital!

No need for that, sir

At least now, listen to me Take him.

Brother?

Why bring all this into the arena?

his proves you’re still thinking small.

Ramar?

I still respect you

Don’t spoil it

Sir, we’re playing fair

They’re to be blamed

Hey?

And you, get out first!

Why should I leave?

Hey?

Don't talk back to me!

If I say get out, shut your mouth and leave!

Karthi?

If you two want to fight your goats, get this drunkard out of here first.

Otherwise, I’m calling off the match right now!

Next pair, call them in! - Sivabanam?

Hey, move aside, move

Now, everyone clear out

Leave!

Leave everyone

Brother, when we head home, Jockey better be in our hands!

Madurai Jockey, Ramar of Ottakada is here!

This Kaali is the one who blew Karthi’s atom bomb’s horn into the air.

Like the Maruthu Pandiyar brothers

Ramar and Kaali are brothers in blood and valor!

A wounded leopard has entered the forest to destroy it

Remember the name. The goat Khabra Karthi brings is Jaguar.

Is Jaguar going to tear Kaali apart? We’ll find out soon.

This isn't just any goat-fight...

This is the Mahabharata War!

Just seeing these two face off makes our hearts pound...

In a few moments - Come on buddy!

The moment all of Madurai district has been waiting for

The clash between Ottakada Ramar and khabra Karthi is about to begin!

Karthi, remember what I told you that day

Don't charge the goat from the front

Unleash him from the side!

Is it Ottakada Ramar’s Kaali?

Or is it Kahbra Karthi’s Jaguar?

Who is going to be the Kingmaker of Madurai?

We’ll find out in a few moments!

This medal is a matter of pride

But don't go killing yourselves over it!

The Jockey medal hanging around Ramar’s neck has reached the stage.

Once the fight ends

we’ll see whose house it goes to, in a few moments

Let them go! Release the goats

Strike!

Smash it, Kaali!

Hit him! - Strike buddy!

Come on!

That’s it!

Come on Go for it! Strike!

Hit him!

That’s it my boy!

Come on! Yes!

Knock him out - Go strike him

Kaali, hit him!

Head butt him, come on!

Hit him! Come on!

Yes, come on - strike

Don’t let up!

Catch him! Grab the goat!

Kaali!

You have to win!

Karthi, did you see that? That goat has lost its edge

If we strike, victory is ours

Charge and strike! - Hit him!

Super! Come on, come on!

Strike now!

Strike him! Strike him, Ramar!

Strike!

Hey Ramar, brilliant!

Hit him, Kaali! Strike! - Come on!

Kaali strike! - Hit him

Kaali, hit him!

Strike!

Come on!

Hey, come on

Bawa, they’re terrified!

That’s why they’re fumbling like this

Don’t back down! Strike hard!

Strike! Strike!

Jaguar, come on! Let him go!

Release him,

Hey, you have to win!

Kaali

Strike now!

Hit him!

How many days its been, since we witnessed this!

That day Kaali only made Atom bomb’s horn fly

But today Jaguar....

Bawa?

Kaali?

What happened to you, Kaali?

Hey, call the doctor! Check what’s wrong!

Come quick!

No need

The goat is severely injured, he must be taken to the hospital

Take the goat to the hospital now

Hey, give me that medal

Sangaiya, you guys settle the rest

Kaali...

What Ramar?

Ears ringing? Eyesight blurring?

You just won once!

But I...

I’m a winner every single time

Kaali?

Kaali?

Come on, let’s go

Our Kaali is leaving us, look at him

Ramar?

Kaali!

Hey, Kaali!

Get up, Kaali!

I should have cooked you into a Biryani two months ago

You escaped!

You guys are posting videos, right?

Now look, I’m posting one!

Look here, people, this is Ramar’s Kaali...

Or should I say, "Loser Kaali"?

Not dancing now?

Dance, come on!

In a little while, we’re going to finish him off and cook up a Biryani feast.

I welcome you all!

Location is Khabra Karthi brother’s grove in Sellur.

Please come, okay?

Piping hot Biryani is waiting for you all!

What happened, Ramar? You’ve come back alone...

where is Kaali?

Tell me, Ramar, why are you alone?

Where is Kaali?

I’m asking you! Where is Kaali?

You said Kaali would always be with us... where is he?

Where did he go?

Tell me, Ramar!

Tell me!

Father...

Father...

I’ve lost my God, Father

I killed my own brother

I don’t know what to do anymore, Father

Father, You’ve left me too

Oh God, it’s all gone! Everything is gone!

Kaali is gone, Father!

Ramar, don’t cry...

Please don’t cry

You spoke so big that day, didn’t you?

Now look what you’ve done!

You’ve lost the child of this house and wailing now?

How many times did I tell you not to take him with you?

Did you listen?

See now?

Kaali is gone.

Sister...

Sister, I messed up

I was wrong

Sister, I made a huge mistake

Do you know how much blood poured from his head?

He was screaming in pain, Sister.

How am I supposed to live without seeing him?

I don’t care about what you do... I just want Kaali back

I want Kaali!

Hey, come here!

Will Kaali come back just because you cry? Come inside.

Our goat.... everything is destroyed, Father

Kaali?

Where are you?

How will I ever see you again?

If I had known how much it would hurt you,

I would have stopped the fight right then

No!

Oh God, I failed him! - Ramar?

That Karthi played us for fools, Ramar!

Clear the way!

Our goat has conquered the field!

We’ll show you what Khabra means! Come on

Brother Khabra Karthi! His word is law!

Who is there? This is our turf!

Look at the surrounding lands bow down and obey!

Hey Sir, Sir... the madness is dangerous

If it’s a mass performance, the name is Khabra!

We are the ones who handle trouble that’s over your head

Even if you think you’re a titan, we’ll knock you down!

Anyone who tries to provoke us will get white-washed!

Let it go, they can’t escape us!

We made the whole of Madurai tremble!

If you try to suppress us, your head will spin!

Our rage hacks without a plan

Our tribe is the one that takes lives!

Let the drums tear and the skin burst!

Let the beer overflow and spill!

Let the meat and fish be served in heaps!

This whole district should know who we are!

Thinking of messing up? Keep it aside.

Let’s take a puff, light the match!

If you hear about us, you’ll start wailing!

Watch the swords fly in the air!

We are the ones who handle trouble that’s over your head

Even if you think you’re a titan, we’ll knock you down

Anyone who tries to provoke us will get white-washed!

Let it go, they can’t get away

We made the whole of Madurai tremble!

If you try to suppress us, your head will spin!

Our rage hacks without a plan,

Our tribe is the one that takes lives

We made the whole of Madurai tremble!

If you try to suppress us, your head will spin!

Our rage hacks without a plan,

Our tribe is the one that takes lives

Stop it!

What the hell are you all doing?

The match just ended and you've already started your nonsense?

You brainless fools!

Did you call me here just to watch you them brawl?

Sir?

Sir, do you have any idea how he won?

Because of his dirty tricks, my Kaali lies between life and death.

I will kill him - Ramar, hold it....

Bring him here - I’m talking here, okay?

Who is this guy? Why have you beaten him like this?

He will say that himself, sir

Tell them!

Why are you staring there? Open your mouth and speak

Wait, You, speak up!

The hook needs to sink into the goat’s head. Understood?

Go!

From now on, I’m just going to call you Meenu!

It’s the short form of fish!

Meenu, can I tell you something?

When I saw you in the temple for the first time

Kaali, be quiet!

Tell me, Sivabanam?

Hey Jacky

That goat is fighting valiantly.

You’re good for nothing - Don't be in such a hurry, Sivabanam

Kaali’s head is definitely going to split

You’re going to watch Ramar scream in agony.

If that doesn't happen

Put the rest of my payment into the temple hundi

Hey?

I’ll slit your throat!

Look at me properly!

Did I tell you to do this?

Don’t end up torn apart.

I’m asking you one more time

Did I tell you to do this?

No, brother... it was Sivabanam

What? Me? I said that? - Did you see that, Uncle?

First, he blamed me. Now he blames Sivaganam

Next he will blame you!

It’s fine, you brought someone here to put on an act

You should have at least brought a better actor!

Look at this, sir! how they’re fumbling right in front of you

Hey, Karthi?

One thing is clear today

You’re not Khabra Karthi!

But you’re rotten Karthi!

Rotten?

Who’s rotten? Who?

You are the rotten one! - I’ll blow your head off

What are you even talking?

Karthi

He’s pointing at your men one by one

If I find out that you were behind this cheap, cowardly act.

Uncle, watch your tongue.

You’re talking as if you were standing right there when it happened?

Oh?

This is your goat, isn't it?

How did it end up here?

And you?

Here I am, traveling from village to village teaching people

You’re out here shaming me by gambling?

You entered this bet just for a trophy, didn't you?

Give me the trophy!

Give me the jockey medal now!

Hey?

Sakkari, look here... they’ve already started fighting.

Before it turns into stabs and kills, settle this issue

Hey, be quiet

I know what I need to do

Ramar?

You gambled with the life of your goat?

Where are you going to go to wash away this sin?

Grab the goat and get out of here. Go!

If anything happens to my Kaali

Every single one of you will die like filths!

Hey... Kaali? Hey?

Forgive me, Kaali!

Lift him up!

Doctor...

Doctor...

Doctor... - Hey?

Call him a little louder!

Doctor! Doctor?

Doctor?

Hey, who are you?

Brother, please call the doctor...

The doctor? - Brother

Please tell the doctor to come, brother

Please call him, sir. - Doctor? Doctor....

I’m telling but you keep screaming?

Are you guys crazy?

Why are you coming at this hour and torturing us?

Doctor?

Doctor?

Doctor! - Who is it at this hour?

Doctor, please see what’s wrong

Doctor, please come quickly

Hey, move aside!

What happened? - Doctor!

Doctor, blood is gushing from the goat’s head.

Doctor, please take a look

Whatever it is, come to the hospital in the morning

Leave now! - Please doctor!

Ruining my sleep - Doctor, please doctor!

I consider you my family deity, Doctor

Please help us, doctor!

Help us, please!

Sir, It is a voiceless soul!

How did it happen?

They stabbed the goat’s head with something, Doctor.

It has become deeply septic

He won't survive. Take him away

Oh God of Death, who came unannounced

Why did you leave without taking the life?

How did even you get cheated by him?

I too was ruined by believing in a God who doesn’t exist

Tell Death to take me also away, along with him

This arena is a mound of death I don't feel like things will change

Tell me, has the village’s evil eye fallen upon us?

Like an earth without its oceans, I stand here without any support

Are you really going to cross the skies and leave me?

It’s painful even to watch this

He has been gasping for a long time.

If we give him some medicine he will pass away without suffering.

I’ll go and do what is necessary for that

Ramar! Ramar?

That’s our Kaali, isn't it?

Then why should we kill him with poison?

He is someone you raised

How can you do this to him?

Listen to me, Ramar

Ramar, he is our Kaali

Tell them not to do anything to him, Ramar!

Kaali....

Ask him not to do that!

I’m telling you, please listen to me!

Move aside, move

Why are you all crowded here?

Hey Subbu, what’s going on here?

What are you doing?

To finish off Kaali.... - Get out of here first

Everyone is in such a hurry in life

What can I say?

Without patience, there’s no peace. When will you learn? Go

Kaali, if you eat this, everything will be fine, man

You just watch, in exactly three days, that spike will come out

You’ll be jumping and playing like always, you'll see

Nothing, my Blackie... nothing at all.

Karuppa, you must stay with him

Save this child

It’s nothing, nothing... Karuppan will be with you

Kaali, get up!

Get up!

And you tried to poison him? Losers!

Ini, come here dear

Take this

Give one of these pellets every morning

Rub this oil gently over the surface

Don’t forget, keep it in mind...

Hey Kaali, nothing will happen to you anymore.

Ramar?

If a man loses his game even once in life

This world never gives him a second chance

You could have called me a wretch and sent me away

But you’re my everything, right?

Before the Vadipatti fight began

Karthi brother gave me ten thousand rupees

And told me to drive the blade into Ramar’s goat’s head

Posters like this have been pasted all over Madurai without leaving a single spot

They are saying that all our wins until now were achieved through fraud like this

Karthi!

they say there are talks in the Federation to ban you from goat fighting entirely

Every random person is talking as they please

It’s humiliating, Karthi

By listening to someone you shouldn't have and striking that blade into the goat’s head

Now you have brought shame to my training as well...

Why Ayyaavu?

Didn't you train Atom Bomb?

Maybe the feed was low, and because it became weak, the horn broke?

Listen Karthi

The reason Atom bomb’s horn broke

the reason you got the name "Rotten" Karthi

Is your crooked mind!

Is that so, Ayyaavu?

Like a man performing monkey tricks,

He came and walked away

With all the applause in a single day!

We’ve been ruling the goat fighting world for so many years...

For one single slip-up

Atom bomb gets a death sentence?

And for me?

I get the title of rotten Karthi!

you are the master who trained us...

You should get your pay, right?

Huh?

Please be quiet, Ayyaavu

Quiet!

Huh?

Go, get that from her

Meenu?

You should get married within next month

And come with your husband to offer Pongal to this Karuppasamy

I'm telling you now

Ofcourse!

Yeah, I will be watching

Grind the bowl well

Why don’t you grind it?

Hey?

What dosage should I give?

And did you say to give it before feeding or after?

Give it only after feeding

And then give plenty of water - Alright, okay!

Yeah!

What is it? You look very busy

Why did you ask me to come now?

Just to see you

Seen me enough?

Shall I leave now?

That’s upto you

Hey?

Don't I know about you?

You called me here so I would see you all dressed up

And now you’re acting?

Oh God, it’s nothing like that

Give this offering to your sister

It’s good

Pongal!

It’s very good!

Hey, the power is out

Hey, the power is out! - Why are you screaming at the top of your lungs now?

I’m coming, wait!

Mom, the power is out - These people are really jobless

He keeps cutting it off and on

The power is gone! - Enough screaming,

Go and sit down

Can’t you stay still without howling?

Huh?

You have an exam tomorrow, don’t you?

Go study!

Is this Ramar’s house?

Why are you asking?

Is Ramar here?

What do you want, coming here at this hour?

Looks like Ramar isn't here

Where did he go at this time?

Hey?

Tell him Brother Karthi has come to give him a wedding invitation

Bring him

If I call the police, only then will you behave

Mom?

Kaali?

Kaali....

So, this is our Kaali’s nest?

Kaali?

Oh God!

Infront of our deity?

Oh I can’t !

The God won't get angry

Come on! Give it

Close your eyes!

Kaali got away!

Hey, come here!

Where is your uncle?

I’m asking where is your uncle?

Couldn’t beat my brother in the goat fight, so you came here to show your bravery?

Get lost!

Leave my child!

Where is your uncle?

I’m asking you, right?

where is he?

Huh?

Where is your uncle? - Mom!

Tell me where your uncle is

Tell me!

Are you going to tell me or not?

Huh?

Where the hell is your uncle?

Mom, it hurts

Oh no, the earring has come right off with the ear

You wicked wrench! - Mom it’s hurting

You’ve mangled a little child’s ear like this...

Do you think you'll live well after this?

I will live great! - No, you won't...

You will be destroyed!

You will rot!

Mom.... my ear....ear

Mom, my ear hurts

A wild elephant

Driven by a hunger

Has entered a garden

In that garden

There were motors, chickens, and lambs...

But the prey the elephant came looking for isn't there

Now, will that elephant

Just leave because the prey is missing?

Or will it tear the entire garden

Tell me...!

Please don't, sir!

Hey, Sivabanam?

Brother?

The house looks nice, doesn't it?

Yes, Brother.

Why are you giving it on the forehead?

Give it in the hand like Basha Bhai does...

Go away!

Hey, don't you watch English movies?

Here, just give it

Is it a trail of history?

Oh?

Please don't, sir...

History is only for the brave

Not for those who are going to trash!

Don’t do this, please!

Where are you going? - Mom?

Just watch what happens now...

Come on, move! Move!

Oh no!

Ramar?

Ramar?

Ramar, come! Ramar, let’s go! Ramar...

Ramar, come, let’s leave!

Ramar, listen to me and come!

Start the auto!

Hurry up, guys! - Please go

Ramar, go

Look, he's running! Don't let him go! Don't let him go!

How could they do this, Ramar?

Ramar! Where did you go, man? Where were you?

Ramar, they tore my ear off, Ramar...

My ear hurts so much, Ramar...

It hasn't even been a month since we pierced that little girl’s ears

This is exactly why I told you not to get involved in these bets!

Did you listen to me?

Did you? - They also beat mom, Ramar

Look at how both sides of her face have swollen up...

No, Ramar! Give me the knife!

Listen to me and give me the knife...

Hey?

My head is spinning with rage!

Please, no!

He entered our home and showed his bravery against our women

After seeing that, you’re telling me to stay quiet?

Just stay silent

I won’t find peace until I strike him down!

No, Ramar!

Our father and my husband traded their goat catching hands for knives.

ou saw for yourself how much our family was destroyed because of that

You men twist your mustaches and talk about bravery and leave

but it’s the women in the house who carry the pain and agony

Listen to me...

please don't, brother!

No, don’t do this

He laid hands on my family

There is no more time for thinking

Only Action now

Brother?

Brother, stop! Please don't, brother...

Brother?

Come in, please go inside

Make sure none of the guests have any complaints

Understood? - okay brother, I’ll take care

Greetings, brother. - You’ve come alone?

You didn’t bring your family?

There was another function, brother. They went there.

I am the Queen of Madurai, come pay your tribute to me!

I am a well of intoxicating wine, come close to me

This coral of the Pandya Kingdom, Shall crawl all the way to Persia

Men will trade diamonds equal to my weight Just to take me with them

Like Indra's white elephant When people see me

Many will perform rituals of atonement Every single day

This world revolves every day in search of pleasure

Hey, where is our God lying down and hiding?

Live the life you’ve always dreamed of and show it here

Even the great Rumi will come to sing my praises!

Greetings, Uncle.

Welcome, Karthi!

You've arrived at our house function quite early?

I had a bit of work..Uncle!

Hey, cousin?

What’s this? Is the bride ready?

Okay Uncle - Alright, go on inside.

If you desire something, you must go and get it.

Don't stand there bound by anything

Why are you worrying about "sins" and "good deeds"?

If there is a profit to be made, don't say no

You are a king only when you know how to celebrate yourself

Here, everything belongs to everyone in equal shares

I am always a lone wolf, I have no gang

If you want, you can take my link

This world revolves every day in search of pleasure...

Hey, where is our God lying down and hiding?

Live the life you’ve always dreamed of and show it here

Even the great Rumi will come to sing my praises!

What happened? Did you find him?

The boys are still searching for him...

What are you saying?

Brother? He’s already come here?

Hey, move aside

The cousin said he’d handle everything, so what’s the problem?

What is this noise?

Hey open the door!

Who locked the door from the outside?

Hey, let them go! Stop it!

Hey! Cut it off!

Have you two decided to humiliate me at my own family function?

Huh? Both of you, get out!

He trespassed into my home and laid hands on my women

After seeing that, you’re asking me to stay quiet?

He’s told the whole town that I’m fraud

Should I give him a garland respect?

Hey! Stop it

All this trouble between you two is because of ram fighting,isn’t it?

From now on, neither of you should ever participate

In a goat fight anywhere in Madurai district

Now, get out of here

What is this, Sakkari? You’re talking so irresponsibly.

You know what happens to those who cause trouble in the arena, don’t you?

Let what started with a goat fight end with a goat fight

Hey old man, are you trying to be funny with this goat fight thing again?

You can let a house cat brush against you,

But can you let a gutter pig touch you?

Like my father killed a pig

Like that, I should take a hammer and smash this pig’s head

Hey, hold it... I said wait

Leave me!

Leave!

Hey, coward?

Don’t talk to me with these cat and pig stories

What do you want now? Do you want to end this with knives?

Come on, let’s see who stabs whom!

Or do you want to settle it in the arena?

Both are same for this Vazhivittan’s son

This is exactly what I was waiting for!

Take out your knife

Pick it up!

Hey! You’re throwing a knife right in front of me?

Did you see that, Uncle?

Half the people who talk like this are in jail

The rest are dead, hanging as photos on a wall.

If these two shouldn't end up like that

Settle their problem in the arena, Uncle.

Yes, Sakkari, that’s the right way

Both of you

the problem is about who is the brave man and who is the coward?

Let a goat fight decide it

Karthi?

Even a small boy can pick up a knife

But it takes real grit to let a goat fight.

I wanted to end this in blood

Fine, Uncle, let’s finish it in a goat fight

Hey, Share-Auto?

If you lose, I will behead your Kaali

Right there in the arena in front of everyone

If I lose, I’ll accept the same fate

Deal?

Hey, you fish market?

If you lose, you don’t have to slaughter your goat

Instead, in that same arena, in front of everyone

you must fall at my feet

No

You must fall at my Kaali’s feet and beg for forgiveness

Come on!

Hey, shut up, you idiots!

None of your hair-brained bets are valid here

My word is the rule

If you follow my rules, only then can there be a fight.

If you both think you are so brave

prepare your goats properly

bring them to the arena, and settle your dispute there

Otherwise, go outside and kill each other like cowards

Now get out!

Get the arena ready, Uncle!

The time for war has arrived and the wounds won't heal.

We shall see who rules don't you dare run away

Brother, we’ve searched everywhere

We couldn't find a goat like the one you asked for

You climbed the fort and hoisted the flag...

Who will close the fate!

You are the man who lived by the hunt...

But Vengeance is about to finish you.

This goat will fight with valor

Never lost a match!

He’ll devour the entire arena!

Brother, look at this red one

It has a thick neck, brother it fights with stiffened pride

Shall we go see it?

Hey, you are looking for a goat just to fight

I am looking for a goat that will kill him

Are you a thug?

A big-time gangster?

If you had actually killed him, you’d be behind bars right now.

if you had thought about your sister, or Iniya, or me

For even a second, would you have acted like this?

Why did you put our Kaali on the line for a bet?

Hey?

Hey, I’m talking to you! Can't you say something?

What do you want me to do now?

I’ve touched this, I have to finish this

I’m only speaking for our own good

Understand that!

This will heal my wound! The tears of love!

The betrayal will set your anger on fire

Hold your sword high and stand ready for the battlefield

Chant your name aloud with a frenzied passion

Charge with arrogance and pounce upon your enemy

Finish the enemy's story and go forth!

Hey, did you finish doing everything exactly as I told you?

Everything has been done, Uncle...

Once the war begins, the wounds will never heal

We shall see who rules don't you run away.

You are the man who scaled the fort and hoisted the flag...

He will close your fate!

ou are the man who lived his life by the hunt...

He will finish your chapter!

The war has begun, and the time will not heal the scars

We shall see who rules don't you run away.

Greetings, sir - Greetings, sir!

Why won’t the police come? We’ve submitted the petition, haven't we?

Then why are you saying they won't show up?

Sakkari, I tried talking to them through various contacts

But they’re not ready to come

Sir, my heart tells me something is wrong.

Uncle? - Huh?

it looks like Karthi has paid off the police to keep them away

Hey, our Federation is like a huge army. We’ll handle it

Alright, Sakkari...

This looks terrifying

Hey

Set the perimeter!

Everyone else, go to your spots!

We should have seen the goat before pairing up

You’ve made a mistake, Ramar...

I’ve made my decision.

Even if my breath leaves me, I won't come out of this without a result.

Oh, Mother Goddess!

Hey, listen well

My Federation’s rules are final

Only thirty butts in total

Win, lose, or draw

This is the last goat fight you will ever participate in.

Play fairly

Understood?

Hey, Share-Auto?

Head separate, torso separate...

Don't you forget the bet

If I can't keep the word I gave

I’m the kind of man who would rather stab himself and die

Bring it on!

Kaali... Strike! - Hit him

Hit him!

Come on Kaali, strike him!

Hit him... Hit him

Strike!

Come on!

Strike, Agaraathi!

Come on, strike him - Hit him

What is this? Why is he coughing up?

Knock him out!

Kaali don’t spre him - Yes! Come on

Come on, strike!

Twelve!

What’s happening? - Come on Kaali!

Agarathi!

Show him, Kaali!

Head butt! Come on!

Strike!

Kaali, come on,get in there!

Because Ramar’s voice has changed, Kaali stands confused

Come on!

Strike!

Yes! Just like that

Come on! That’s it

Karthi brother, don’t spare him

Hit him! Strike!

Ramar...! Ramar...! - Brother?

Brother?....

Why are they both standing there without any aggression?

Come on, hit him

Ramar, what happened?

Hey, get in and throw him away

he was doing so well... what on earth happened?

I don't know what's wrong

How will he command with this throat?

Kaali doesn't seem to understand what's happening.

Finish him!

Strike!

Hey! Grab the goat

Hey, what’s happening here doesn't feel right to me...

Bawa, what happened to you?

You keep coughing like this...

Come on! Come on! Strike him

Strike!

Yes, like that

Come on, strike

Just like that - Strike

Kaali... strike

That’s my boy!

Knock him out!

Okay, hold on... wait

Come on!

Don't let him go, Kaali!

Go on

Strike!

Harder!

Kaali has started man! - Strike, Kaali! Strike, Kaali! Superb

Give it to him, Kaali! - Come on! Come on!

Superb, brother! - Come on

Brother! Ramar brother, come on

Kaali is playing now!

Put him down, Kaali! Good, come on, Kaali!

Hey Karthi brother, the grip is slipping, look

Hey, leave it! Leave it!

Agaraathi!

Come on!

Come!

Strike!

Strike!

Hit him! - Strike!

Hey Kaali... Oh no, Kaali! - Strike!

Stri..ke

Strike! - Come on!

Kaali?

Kaali! - Kaali?

Ramar?

Kaali... get up!

What’s happening?

Kaali?

Brother, lift Kaali! Ramar brother!

Hey Kaali, get up

Kaali....

Kaali?

Does it hurt, Kaali?

Kaali...

You shouldn't lose, man...

Bawa, listen to me... let's give up the bet.

Yes, brother...

Kaali!

Ramar?

Ramar...

Ramar?

Ramar!

Get up, Ramar

Let me go please! - Catch him

I think he is dead!

Ramar brother, get up!

Ramar, get up! - Karthi?

What are you doing?

My hand slipped, Uncle...

Brother?

Ramar, get up, man!

Hey, Share-Auto?

Head separate, torso separate...

Don't you forget the bet!

Kaali!

Kaali

Kaali!

Ramar?

Ramar?

Get up, please!

Sakkarai?

I don't know if he will even get up.

Let's focus on getting Ramar to the hospital.

Uncle?

Let's just end the fight here...

Give me the medal..

Ramar?

Sir!

There are still two clashes left!

Get up, Ramar! Get up! - Come on, brother!

Come on!

Hey?

Finish the fight first, then leave!

That's it, Come on, Ramar!

Brother! Come on!

Come on, brother! Come on

Come on! Come on! - Brother, come on !

Come on brother!

Strike!

Hey, strike!

Kaali, with just one hit, finish the job!

Come on, Kaali! Come on, Kaali! - Hey Agaraathi, get up!

Superb, brother! Come on! - Ramar! Ramar!

Ini!

Let me go!

Karthi! Brother, kill him!

My God... My God...

You are the only God...

Who are you? Who am I?

What is the relationship between us here?

Ramar..

You are a warrior!

Congratulations

Sir!

I’ve had enough!

Hey?

with this, the goat fight between you two is over.

The problem is over too.

Violence is always just a beginning

Not an ending

Hey Karthi?

Try to live as a decent human being

The same goes for you

Leave now.

Everyone, leave!

Leave!

Hey?

Everyone, please leave

Move them all out - Okay uncle

Here, hold this

Brother?

Who are these people?

I don't know, Brother.

Uncle

letting a goat fight happen without a bet

Is like eating rice without any salt

This Karthi is just like that, Uncle.

Hey, Share-Auto?

Let me tell you a story.

An ant fell into the water,

Struggled and scrambled, and somehow managed to reach a shore.

Just as that ant breathes a sigh of relief,

thinking it has escaped with its life..

It realizes that it isn't standing on a shore

But a volcano!

In exactly three seconds

That volcano is going to erupt

Shall we see how the volcano explodes?

One...

Two...

Three!
