All language subtitles for Anthony 2026_track3_[eng]

The Bible, Quran and Bhagavat Gita
preach the same message.

If someone hurts you,
we should love them back.

If someone slaps you on the right
cheek, give him the other cheek.

I know this teaching
may not fit this village.

Here's what I mean.
If you can't forgive your enemy,...

...try to at least love your
family, relatives and friends...

...as much as you can.

Have you ever felt
how beautiful love is?

When you love someone, they feel
something wonderful about you.

Jesus Christ loved
the one who betrayed Him...

...and the one who crucified Him.

Although betrayal and violence
are part of human nature,...

...the Son of God knows
how to love them in return.

We pray for His return,
even if He returns again and again.

I believe those who harm others
will stay the same,...

...by following what he taught.

We're here to do his work.

The Bible teaches that forgiving
others and giving your soul...

...to those you love
is the greatest selfless act.

We journey
with the people we love...

...for a certain time
and for a reason.

Without love,
the journey has no meaning.

If we are faithful shepherds,...

...God will choose
not to return to the world.

Madhan!
-Father?

Yes, father?

Why didn't you come to mass?
-Father, my child was sick...

...and my wife was
at the hospital with her.

That's why I hurried
to look after her.

Take care of her.
Come and see me once you get back.

Okay, father.

Anthony.

Did you ask me to come, father?

Check if everyone has come
for the death memorial.

Okay, father.

How was today's catch?
-I caught around 2 kilos.

Is she asleep?
-Does she sleep without you?

Thursday, Friday,
Saturday and Sunday.

Mom!

Where is dad?
-He will come.

Are you asleep, my sweetheart?

Mom, she must be
in a deep sleep.

All right then,...

...I'm off to fish
and will come back soon.

Okay, dad.
Have some tea first.

Dad, wait for me.
I'll come with you.

Please take me with you.
-Come to daddy.

Dad, my teacher
gave me five stars today.

My clever girl!

She gave me a 'very good' too.

Everyone in the class
gave me a round of applause.

Open your mouth.

Mom taught me English.

So, I gave her three of my stars.
-What about me?

Dad, why does mom call
you dad too?

You're only my father, aren't you?
-How do I call you?

You call me 'mom'.
-Then how do I call your mom?

You call her 'mom'.

Ashok, even after
returning from Qatar,...

...you still remember the job.
You still catch fish like before.

Get over here.

Grab the net.
-Lift the anchor.

Heave it up.
-On my shoulder.

Uncle, how was today's catch?

Not much, only about 200 kilos.

Hey, fool!
Isn't 200 kilos enough for you?

Didn't you catch 2,000 kilos before
or was that a lie?

This is less than that.

Who said you didn't catch much?

You can't catch fish
the way we used to.

There are forty two-inch nets
and forty 2.25-inch nets.

We can cover the whole sea.

Next week, we'll catch up
on the amount you said.

Put all your frustration
into fishing. Go away!

Ulakka, I've put your fish
in here.

I took some for Ashok and me.
Give some to brother.

Okay.
-By this year,...

...I'll beat those old men
by catching at least one fish more.

It's not the net or the boat.

It's the one who fishes.

Take this.

Go ask aunty
to make it spicy.

Then spill all your words.

The truth can be bitter,
my boy.

I'll tell aunty to mix some poison
along with some spice in the curry.

Poison tastes better
than your aunty's curry. Get lost!

Buddy, come on.

Hey, pass the ball to me.

Nikson, come on, kick the ball.

Give me the ball.

It's not the net or the boat,
it's the one who fishes.

Mom, hurry up,
I need to go to the market.

I'm done. Go on.

Remember to get
some onions when you return.

Okay.
-All right, girl, we're off.

Don't forget
to cook something good.

I'm going to smack you.

I'll pick you up
after school.

Bye.

Theeban, what can we do
if the price is too low?

Come on, let's go.
We'll see how it goes.

Ashok, check if the tea
has enough sugar.

Do you think I have diabetes
like your husband?

Put more sugar.
-I'm going to kill you.

Why? Looks like
we caught very little today.

It works well in the east.

Every vendor is over there.
It's cheap too.

Deva bought the fish
at a good price.

Theeban's catch was really good.
But the price for his fish was low.

I felt sorry for him.
He sold his fish at a bargain.

It might have been better
if he hadn't caught the fish.

Anthony, do you want a cup of tea?
-No thanks, sister.

Okay, I'm off.

I heard the monsoon season makes it
easy for us to catch cuttlefish.

We catch only what's possible.

Sammati, instead of lending
your boat,...

...why not lease it for a month?
We could make more money.

Giving his share to me
and lending my boat to him...

...isn't for money.

It's about our bond.

I was just asking.
Ulakka, it's getting late.

Take your money.
-I'll take it later.

Ulakka, let's go.

Ulakka, seems like
you're expecting a call.

Sister, bye.
-Sammati, we'll be back later.

Mom!

Mom!
-Dad, I'm here!

Mom, we're out of soap.
-The soap was under the stone.

Sister, guess
what happened last night?

What is it?
-I was fast asleep.

When I woke up,
the window was open.

A shadow appeared on top
of the fridge.

Suddenly, it jumped
onto the table.

You know I have a big TV.
It went behind it.

Then it ran to my new sofa set
and jumped up there.

On the other side
is my dining table.

It went under the table.

I was really scared
and had no idea what to do.

Then I turned on the light.

It was only a cat.
-A cat?

Yeah, that really scared me.

Hey, Raani!
You never miss a chance to gossip!

He is calling.
I'll come in the evening.

Yes, I'm coming.
This man has no other work.

Brother, bye.

She could tell right away
that it was a cat.

She was indirectly saying
she has a lot of stuff at home.

She was also saying
that she bought a new sofa set.

Such a silly lady!

Mom, I need some money.
-Where's your salary?

I have to collect it
this evening.

Give me some money, mom.
I have to go.

It's in the plastic box.
Go take it.

I have no clue
when Baskar will kill you.

Be quiet, dad.
-Is this how you raise your son?

Your son will be just like you.

Tell me you've never been
beaten by my dad?

I married you out of pity.

Now, he has the nerve
to complain about my son.

Or you would have ended up
marrying Kamal Hassan.

What?
-Nothing, dear.

Have you showered?
-Get lost!

Ashok, come.
-Hey, where is she?

Are you looking for Uncle Baskar?
-Who wants him?

Then, do you mean Big Brother?
-Not your brother, but your sister.

Okay, then buy me some sweets.
-What?

Go find her yourself then.
-Wait!

Sister, I'll take two sweets.
-Okay.

Here you go.
Tell me, where is she?

All right, touch my feet.
-You asked for sweets, didn't you?

Touch my feet, you fool!

Come on, tell me.

She went there just now
with Ulakkai's sister.

Just now?
-Yes.

My cutie pie!

My little bell boy!
-Don't touch my bell?

Get out of here
and don't ever come back.

Look at him and his bike.

Ulakka!
-Brother?

Ulakka!
-Yes?

Come on, hurry. I've got to go.
-Coming.

Mom, get my shirt.
I'll eat a bit later.

Where are we going?
-Just get on the bike.

Caroline?
-Yes.

She's in there.

I'm looking good, right?

It's time.
She'll be here shortly.

You've been saying this
for five years.

For me, please.

Then say that it's time
and she'll be coming soon.

The time has come.
Your girl will be here shortly.

She'll look at you,
you'll stare right back.

Then?

What's next? She'll look at you,
you'll look at her.

She'll frown,
and you'll walk off.

This is what happens all the time.
-Give it to me!

My Selvi is better than her.

Get out of here, man!

Caroline!

If my brothers catch you,
they'll smash you and your bike.

I pity you,
so I didn't say anything.

Go! Get lost!

Ulakka, this is for you too.

Are we going to get beaten?

She said she felt pity for me.
What do you get from this?

We're about to get beaten
by her brothers.

Shut up!
That's why I don't come with you.

No wonder your Selvi
loves four guys.

Dad!

Dad!
-Yes, darling.

Shall I come with you today?

No, darling.
You have to go to school.

Study first.
-I knew you'd say that.

I have no school tomorrow.

I want to look
at the sea and draw.

Dad!
-Yes, darling?

Look at this.
I'm studying really well.

Please, take me with you.

All right, I'll take you with me.
-Really?

Yes.
-I'm going with dad.

Okay, shall we go?

Okay, take the paddle.

Okay, we'll leave now.

Now, close your eyes.
-Why, dad?

It's a surprise. Close your eyes.
-Okay.

Hey!

Don't open your eyes
until I say so.

Nila, now open your eyes.

It looks so beautiful, dad?

We should have brought mom too.
-I like that too.

But mom doesn't want to come.
-Why, dad?

It's nothing, dear.

Your mom and my mom
have a small business together.

Dad, I don't understand
what you're saying.

Dad, the sea is vast.

It's windy and dark.
Aren't you scared?

This is my mother.
Her love is like these waves.

I can ask her
for anything I want.

Whenever I think of my mom,
I come here.

When I sleep on my boat,...

...every single wave
feels like my mother rocking me.

All my sadness and sorrow
just fade away.

Before your mother came
into my life,...

...I came here every single day
of the week.

A boat had to come
to collect all the fish.

No matter what work we do,
if we treat it like our mother,...

...we can face every sorrow
with a smile.

After your mother came
into my life,...

...I found happiness at home too.

After so many years,...

...with God's grace,
you came into our lives.

I started earning for you.

Even after all that,...

...my mother kept helping.

Won't a mother understand
her children's pain?

Dad, rather than
the wonders of the sea,...

...my teacher
said there are many dangers.

There is no danger here,
only her love.

Mom gets whatever she wants
all by herself.

I'm telling you again,...

...if we treat our work
like our mother,...

...we can face any pain.

Even in our studies.

Look over there,
your mom is waiting.

Each day, she waits
at the exact moment I return.

Dad, do you love Mom or me?

Why are you asking?
-Tell me, dad.

I love...

...you more.

Take your hands off, mom.
Dad loves me more.

I feel sorry for mom.
-You are pampering her.

I'll get you
if your marks are low.

Dad, don't worry about anything,
I'll become a doctor.

We'll see.

Just watch, I'll give
my first injection to you.

That story about the four angels.
Do you remember?

Yes, I do.

What?
-You go.

Go, I'll take care of it.

Kumba!
-What?

What's the matter?

Why does your sister wear
a red dress to every mass?

To show that my dad
is dangerous.

Haven't you thought
about being a priest?

So, who's going to give
life to your sister?

That's true too.
Do you know why I'm asking?

The father may come now.
Let me go.

Give me some time.
I want to tell you something.

Not here.
Cow! This is the church.

You won't step out
of your home.

Whenever you do,
your brothers are always there.

For me, there's no place
better than this.

I'm not saying anything wrong.
-Can you leave me or not?

You're always shouting at me.
Today, I'll talk. You listen.

Go on, tell me.

Or you'll not let me go.

Jesus Christ came
to save the people, right?

When He came,
four angels came with Him.

When he was
resurrected again,...

...only three angels
went back with Him

The other angel
was standing here.

Where?
-In front of me.

Oh, my Jesus!
-Why? Is it that bad?

Wait. Let me tell you
another one.

Why are you
acting like a fool?

They said I have to speak
like this to be loved.

Then you'll love me.
-I'll only get mad at you.

If you keep doing
such foolish things,...

.....my brothers will beat you.
If they knew about you.....

They say true love comes
with a few slaps.

That's what Peduru said.
-Peduru?

Yeah, my father's brother.

Okay, now leave.

I'll be in trouble
if father sees you here.

I swear, I can't handle
these problems alone.

From Cycle Shop Selva,
to Manima, the mango shop lady,...

...everyone knows that I'm always
following you.

They are okay
with our relationship.

But you.....

I'll never do anything
against my father's wishes.

But that's not how
we should raise our kids.

Let them do
whatever they like.

Our kids? Not a chance!

These foolish dreams
are bad for your heart.

Be careful

Look, this isn't a dream.

We'll get married
in this church.

For you, a pendant
with the letter A,...

...for me, a pendant
with the letter K.

Your brothers
will be the groomsmen.

With your dad's blessings,
you and I will get married.

We're going to tie the knot.
I swear upon Jesus.

What's this?
You're smiling strangely.

Is that the story
of the four angels?

How do you know that?

Last Sunday,
he told that story to your sister.

Looks like you've won
Baskaran's daughter's heart.

Mom, look what Nila has done.

Take two pieces and fry them.
They taste good.

For you or for your daughter?

It's for the three of us.
She'll come tired from school.

We'll see.

After she goes
to another home,...

...will you still run
and fry fish for her?

She is dad's princess,
she'll never leave her dad.

Mom!

Why?

Hey, don't worry.

She was strong enough
when she gave birth at home.

It's all good news.
Take care of her.

O' lamp that shines
in the little hut...

O' pearl-bright,
gem-like light...

My little bird,
you held me close...

O' morning dew...

In your smile,
drops of joy spill...

Like coral beads...

The hut, the temple alike...

O' daughter of a noble line...

You came as a blessing...

Graceful and divine...

O' lamp that shines
in the little hut...

O' pearl-bright,
gem-like light...

O' lamp that shines
in the little hut...

The penance that
made it possible to have you...

The whole village
knows of it...

The fasting
and prayers offered...

The whole village
and the world know of it...

For us poor ones...

You came
as the sacred daughter...

You kept away from everyone
who meant trouble...

All our wealth...

It is all because of you...

Without you,
no guardian stands...

Our streets
are left orphaned...

O' lamp that shines
in the little hut...

O' pearl-bright,
gem-like light...

Competition and jealousy..

Even amidst filth...

You made us search,
you let us find you...

We lived as lonely orphans...

In a tiny hut...

And you came searching for us,
O' divine daughter...

What can we say...

After going to school...

We might see
just an empty hut...

A small hut
on the sandy shore...

Waits for you to come...

O' lamp that shines
in the little hut...

O' pearl-bright,
gem-like light...

My little bird,
you held me close...

O' morning dew...

In your smile,
drops of joy spill...

Like coral beads...

The hut, the temple alike...

O' daughter of a noble line...

You came as a blessing...

Graceful and divine...

O' lamp that shines
in the little hut...

O' pearl-bright,
gem-like light...

O' lamp that shines
in the little hut...

Hey, Anthony!
-Raju, come in.

Vimal, when did you come back?
-I got back yesterday.

How are you?
-Yeah, I'm doing good.

Why are you here?
-I'm doing well.

Look at him.

He didn't even know
how to pee back then,...

...now he's in a computer company.

Sister, no need
to make tea for us.

We just had some
at Segar's place.

Sister, there's a birthday party
for my son.

I want all of you to come.
-Okay.

Let's go.

Here.

Mom, do you remember
the day I was born?

Yes, how could I forget that?

I remember very well.

Did I come out from the top
of your belly?

No, dear.

Why are you laughing?
Tell me, mom.

It felt like ten people
were hitting my belly.

My whole body ached.

Yet I was eager to see you.

But grandma said you were in
the wrong position inside my belly.

I was afraid I'd lose you.

I thought
you'd never call me mom.

Two people held my hands
as I screamed in pain.

That day,
for the first time,...

...I saw your father crying.

Hey, increase the volume.

After so many years, the three
of us are together like this.

Hey, is it necessary
to spend this much?

Has it really been
so many years since we left?

Sunny days, cold days,...

...new work, new language.

Leave that aside.

We had more than one job.

I'd come home
and she wasn't there.

She'd get back
and I'd be gone.

Even the kids weren't home
when we got back.

Expense?

A day full of happiness,
after so many years...

...connecting people
under one roof,...

...talking and laughing...

...how do we put a price on that?

Back there,
I only felt the cold on my body.

Now, I feel warmth
in my heart too.

All because of this card.

Anything you spend on it,
I have to pay over there.

The years ahead
will be filled with this happiness.

You saw how everyone
was smiling away.

Did you tell Anthony to come?
-Yeah, I told him to come.

Why does he need to come?

There's no work
for any boats these days.

For a week,
we have been just wasting money.

Can you check why?
-No, brother.

We checked
when the nets were up.

All new nets,
the water level is also fine.

But no fish are being caught.

We thought it might be
a boat's problem, and we checked.

But we found nothing.

That's what you need
to take a closer look at.

Tell them to flip
the boat over.

What does he know?

Catch the ball, man.

Hey, Ulakka!

What have you done, Ulakka?
-Useless!

These guys are only good
at smoking bidi.

Grandpa, do you even know
how to play football?

Yeah.
-Did you play for the team?

My team changed the whole game
in the last 5 minutes.

Every goal we scored
was for the pride of our village.

Now look, Coach Vedanayagam...

...beats the boys who smoke
and drink with pirandai sticks.

In our village, the only place
we don't hit back...

...is the playground.

What is a pirandai stick?
(devil's backbone)

If a job isn't done properly,...

...that's the fisherman's
last step.

Ashok!

Sammati wants you to come quickly.
Let's go.

Come on!
-It's late, hurry up.

Hurry up.

Careful!
-Careful!

Slowly.

So many people
just to flip a boat?

Lord!

Where did you go?

Sammati said his boats
don't get much catch.

I went to check.

We had a good catch today.
-Eight boxes.

Push it in.
-Step aside. Get on.

Are you leaving?
-Brother, start the vehicle.

I'm heading out, guys.
-Brother, what brings you here?

We've got a society meeting
in the evening. Join us.

Okay.

All the boats caught well today.
You can keep it.

You never listen to me.
-What has he done?

No part of the sea is untouched
by the Karaioor fishermen...

...and no boat
that Anthony hasn't sailed.

It's 4:30. Let's start.
-They told us to come at 4.

Raasu, you said
your boat went missing.

It is with the society
in the other village.

Show the ownership book
and get it from them.

I'll hand you a letter
from our society.

Show it to them.
-Okay.

Selvam!

It has been two weeks since he was
told not to go to work...

...because of his mistake.

But he has a family.

From the union's budget,
we'll give him a share.

Get it from me after the meeting.
-All right.

Sit down.

From tomorrow,
you can go fishing.

If you repeat the mistake,
we'll ban you from fishing.

And we'll give your boat back
to the Society.

And you can never think about
going fishing again. Understand?

The reason
we are meeting today is that,...

...on Fridays, Saturdays and
Sundays, we don't go to the sea.

This time is also the same.
Nobody is going fishing.

How can we stop
fishing for now?

We've had a low catch
the past few days.

We lose money on kerosene.
Did anyone ask about that?

No, right?

We're getting back the catch.
So, we can only earn when we can.

Think about it.
-Hey, what are you saying?

We need to talk about the truth.
The problem is that no one talks.

So I'm speaking.

If it's yes, just say 'yes'.
If not, tell them to say 'no'.

Anyway, for several years...

...we've stopped
going fishing on those days.

If you change it now,
it will continue forever.

We all know what happens
when we change our traditions.

All the elders are here.
Think about it.

What's this? He's saying
you're just a little boy.

You can earn your thousand
however you want.

But we're not like that.

Don't you know
how to talk to people?

Get out of here.

Ask them to leave.
-Go.

He's only a little boy.
He doesn't know any better.

Forgive him.
-Sit.

Anthony is right.
We must not change the tradition.

On that day,
everyone should stop fishing.

This is the final decision,
am I correct?

Yeah.

Why did your dad
get angry at you?

He's hitting his own son
for someone else.

He always wears a smile.

He spoke disrespectfully
about an elder.

Nobody would stay calm.

He stood up for us.

Hey!

We need to do
something about this.

This is unforgettable.

I stayed quiet
because of your father.

If it were anyone else.....
-What would you have done?

He's like this because of you.
Keep your mouth shut and stay away.

Hey, come on!
-Puddumudi, don't rile him up.

Hey!

Hey, come on.

Come, I'll tell you.

Mudi, where to?

Where are you taking us?

Come on.

Get on his boat.
-That's our working boat.

I'll sleep here.
Call me when you are going home.

Puddumudi, where are you going?
-Get into his boat.

It's used to eke out a living.
You shouldn't do this.

Get down from there.

Puddumudi, don't do anything silly.
Get down.

Ashok felt ashamed in front
of everyone because of him.

Do you even understand his pain?
I'd do anything for him.

Hey, stop acting silly.
Get down.

Hereafter, he can't
shame us anymore.

From now on, just see how his
fishing falls apart.

If Anthony finds out about this,
I can't even imagine what he'll do.

Get down from the boat.
-Get lost!

Let's see what happens.
-Hey, Puddumudi!

Ashok, tell him.

Brother Anthony is here.

Hey, Puddumudi!

Caroline!
-Brother?

What the hell are you doing?

Hey, why did you hit her?
-Let's stop her studies.

I've told you already.

You're always the one
treating her like a child.

But she is acting out of line.

Arrange her wedding
with that guy from Germany.

Who is that?
-That guy, Ashok.

Kingsly's son.

What about him?
-He's an alcoholic.

All he's good for is drinking
and picking fights.

I'm not asking for that.
What about his work?

He's in charge in Ranjan's place.
He's skilled at fishing.

There's nothing wrong
with his work.

Do you like him?

Do you like him more than me?

Why are you asking her?
-We kept her under our care.

If she goes across the sea,...

...we won't know how she's doing
or if he's looking after her.

We can't even see her
or stay here in peace.

So, do you want her
to marry an alcoholic?

Who doesn't drink
in this village?

If he's skilled at his work,
we can give him a job,...

...get him married to her
and make sure he looks after her.

I'll tell you one thing.
She is our princess.

We can't let her go out.
She belongs in my care.

Understand?
-It's up to you.

I don't know if Anthony
told Sammati about that.

Will he tell? If he does.....
-Hey, Mudi!

Because of what we did,
any other fisherman...

...would have yelled at us.

It's all because
of this Puddumudi.

If he stops us from fishing,
no one will respect us.

All this is because
of alcohol.

If Uncle Baskaran finds out.....

Hey, fool!

All right, don't worry.
I'll handle it.

Okay.

Sammati, this happened
as we were drunk.

If you're drunk,...

...don't you even know
who's standing in front of you?

When you're drunk,
do you think you're a thug?

Keep all this away from work.
Be careful.

Sammati.....
-I think he didn't tell him.

What did Anthony say?

When he was going to work,
you got in his way.

The paddle accidentally hit you.
And you were drunk.

He felt bad about hitting
someone younger.

I don't understand
your behaviour.

He is a good man.

Would someone else do this
after all we've done to him?

I told you guys
not to do it.

Puddumudi, it's all because of you.
-Smack him.

Get lost!

Did you call me
to meet you alone?

And that too,
on your father's boat?

What is it, dear?
What's wrong? Why the sad face?

You were supposed to be beaten,
but they hit me instead.

Is it your brother?
I'll teach him.....

Come on, are you going to hit him
and ruin the wedding?

Wedding? For you?
-Yeah.

Okay.

Then we'll run away.

My uncle lives in Vanni.

We'll go there
and return after a week.

When we come back,
will your dad accept us?

Even if he doesn't,
I'll look after you.

If we run away and get married,
we should be independent.

So, what will happen
to my marriage?

So you called me here
just to say this.

Anyway, you will not go against
your dad's wishes.

Okay, go.

If I go,
what about the marriage?

Go and marry the man
your father has chosen for you.

Go marry him.

My dad told me to marry you.

What happened.
Why are you late?

I had work.

Mom, I brought some groceries.

Put them away.

Dad, Vanila's school
has a teacher-parent meeting.

We have to.....

Mom!

Mom!

Mom!

We've checked the blood, doctor.
-Get the reports ready.

Okay.

Who's with her?
-The lady's husband is here.

Ask him to come.
-Okay, doctor.

Nalini's husband?

You have to go for a check-up too.
Come with me.

Hello, yeah.
Is this the chief doctor?

Can you please check
on the reports? I'll be back.

Do you have any kids?

I have a daughter.

Can you bring
your daughter here?

I came to admit my wife.
I've done all the checkups.

And now you're asking
about my daughter.

What's happening?
-It's for your own good.

Go and bring her here.

Go on.

Dad, where are we going?
-Come, I'll tell you.

Mom, where is dad?

Dad has gone to see the doctor.

I've gone through
the blood reports.

Your blood report is normal.

But your wife
and daughter's blood reports...

...are a bit abnormal.

I think it's a.....
-Excuse me, doctor.

I'm with a patient.
One minute, please.

Sorry.

I think it's
familial hypocholesterolemia.

It seems like that.
-I don't get it, doctor.

It's a kind
of genetically inherited disease.

It's a rare disease.

There's a high risk
of an immediate heart attack.

But that's okay.

I'll send the reports
to the chief doctor.

I'll get his opinion
and get back to you.

For now,
take the prescribed medications.

Come and meet me tomorrow.

Dad!
-Yes, darling.

I can take care of you and mom
only if I become a doctor.

Then why did you
take me out of school?

Mom has dengue fever.

That's why they tested us too.

After giving the injection,
they said we'll be better.

So from now on, don't get
any injections from anyone.

Once I become a doctor,
I'll give you guys your injections.

Okay, dear.

Don't cry,
everything will be fine.

What's the matter?

Well, when our son was crossing
the Romanian border,...

...the police caught him.
The agent called us.

We sold our jewellery
and used all our savings...

...and sent Rs20 lakhs to him.
Now we're waiting for his call.

He'll be fine.
Don't worry.

Okay. Why are you here?

I have to work tomorrow.

What?
-I urgently need some money.

Is it a large amount?

Okay.

Not like that.
Mudi, help lift the boat.

Ulakka, pull!
-Leave it there.

Be careful.
-Come here.

Hey, carefully remove the fish.
-Anthony!

Brother, it's my engagement today.

Could you sell the fish
in the market?

Uncle, let's go.

Hey, stop.

Why are there no vendors here?
-There is no fish here.

All the sellers are at the other
market. Prices are lower here.

That is why it's empty.
So, what will you do?

All right, take all the fish.

How much for a kilo?
-It's Rs1000.

It's already late,
so I'll sell it for Rs900.

Can you give me a kilo for Rs500?
-Rs500?

It's cheap
in the other market too.

Step aside.
-Then go buy from that market.

He wants to pay Rs500
for a fish worth Rs1000.

No one will come
if you keep the fish here.

You'll have to throw them
into the sea again.

How can I sell 600 kilos
of fish at 500 per kilo?

If we sell at that price,
we'll make a loss.

It's better if we had not caught
the fish at all.

It was like a fortune.

I've been working on Ashok's love
for the past four years.

Now, I can spend time on mine.
-She just left with the fifth one!

Thalayaatti, don't make me
kill you!

But it's the truth.

What's the matter?

You usually chatter a lot,
but now you're quiet.

I was thinking about my action.

He has a good heart.

Who? Baskaran?

Anthony.
-Now, do you understand?

I heard about it.
Why did he stop doing the big jobs?

If a person knows everything,...

...but he doesn't do it,...

...it shows he cares more
about something else.

Anthony.

He only said
one single word to Sammati.

"Segar is a good fisherman.
Give the job to Segar."

Because of what he said,
I'm here now.

Why did he give you his job?

Siththu, this time,
the Kachchatheevu fishermen...

...should talk only about us.

Anthony, Kachchatheevu
is talking only about you.

Hey, is that a boat?
-Hey, what's that?

It looks like an Indian boat.
-Move closer.

Looks like it's completely sunk.

Hey, check who it is.

Here, I'll lift her.

Hey! Who is this?
-I have no idea.

Siththu, head to the shore.

Father, we went
to Kachchatheevu to fish.

We saw an Indian boat sinking.
No one else was there.

I saw only this girl.

We asked Sammati because
we didn't know what to do.

Brother told me
to take her to you.

Who are you, girl?
What's your name?

I'm asking you,
where are you from?

Answer me!

Father, we're going
to Kachchatheevu again tomorrow.

We'll ask around and
let you know if we find anything.

Bye, father.
Sammati, see you.

Let's go.

We loaded kerosene
and got all the supplies.

They have gone to their boats.
I'm leaving now.

All right, take care.

Here, give it to her.
-The girl we found in the sea?

Why? Doesn't she have a name?

Here you go.

What's your name?
-Nalini.

How was the food yesterday?

My sister cooked.
Today, she made prawn curry.

Eat. I have to go now.

Anthony!
-Father?

I asked around,
no one knows anything about her.

You'll never find out
anything about her.

She won't tell us
anything either.

She doesn't talk to anyone
except you.

Forget the idea of returning her.
-What are we to do with her?

You are always at sea.

The sea mother gave her to you.

Life is like a boat.

Once it sinks,
everything is over.

For me, when the boat sank,...

...I lost everything.

I lost my family.

I don't even know
if they are still alive.

In a second,
one man saved me.

Without knowing anything,
I'm here.

As for my relatives,
it's the church father,...

...these pigeons,...

...and more than anyone else,...

...Anthony.

If someone asks me
about my plan,...

...I don't know what to say.

I'm just like you.

They call me a good fisherman.

But after months at sea,...

...when I come to shore,
I realise I have no one.

The father told me
the sea mother gave you to me.

I never believed him.
But now, I understand.

I swear upon the sea mother
who brought us together,...

...will you marry me?

We'll be there for each other,
we don't need anyone else.

The love you asked for
will last forever.

Stop living at sea.
You have a partner now.

Don't forget her.
-Okay, father.

Don't go to the sea anymore.
-Why?

Are you scared to be alone?

I'm scared of losing you.

Can't you try a different job?

I know you won't quit
the sea life.

But what if something
happens to you?

I don't want
to lose anything again.

Okay, I'll talk to you later.
Bye.

Yes, new groom?

Well, let Segar handle
the big jobs. He's trustworthy.

He is a skilled fisherman.

You can trust him.
-Why?

Where are you going?

I'll go fishing
with the little boat.

Morning, I'll give you a share.
-Why do I need a share?

You can keep that boat.

You've been paying me
all this time.

I'll come here at least
to give you a share.

Fine, it's up to you.

Thinking of you,
again and again...

Sleep has left me,
my dear...

Thinking of you,
again and again...

Sleep has left me,
my dear...

When I wake up each morning,
I count the days...

Even while I work,
I think of you...

Waiting like this,
time keeps slipping away...

Thinking of you,
again and again...

Sleep has left me,
my love...

Why are you late?

Raju and I had a drink.
He got too drunk.

So I had to drop him off.

What about you?

I didn't drink much.

After coming
into this world as a woman...

The thoughts that run within
cannot be conveyed...

Who we are born as,
it doesn't matter...

If eyes speak,
isn't that enough to understand...

The town will talk,
stories will grow in many ways...

Who is there
to silence them all...

Winning consent...

Achieving things with grace...

That will be yours and mine,
so what then...

Thinking of you,
again and again...

Sleep has left me, my love...

Dad!

I'll be near.
I'll come back before sunset, okay?

For the girl he loves,
he changed himself...

...and is living his own life.

Don't assume he can't fish.
It's all for his wife.

Loving a girl for four years...

...and marrying her
isn't an achievement.

Even after 40 years,...

...giving her the same love
is what matters.

Baskar will handle
all the wedding costs.

Now you can work
for your father-in-law.

Nothing like that, brother.

I won't leave Sammati
or the job.

I've met many people like you.
All right.

Brother Anthony! Brother!
-Anthony!

Anthony!

Anthony!

Why are you here, man?

Why are you crying?

What happened? Hey, tell me.

Anthony!

I took her to the hospital.

What happened? What's wrong?

They are speaking in a language
I don't understand.

Hey, don't cry, man.

They are saying it'll cost a lot.

I have no idea what to do.
-Don't worry.

We'll take care of it.

Okay, don't cry.

Don't cry.

Don't worry.
We'll take care of it.

Everything will be fine
for your good heart.

Don't cry. Get up.

Let's go home.

Come on. Get up.

Your wife will be waiting for you.
Come on.

Don't worry.

Come on.

Careful.

Lie down.

Go ask dad
if he needs anything.

Dad, I know you have a problem.
Take this.

If you can't tell us,
at least go tell your mother.

You told me that your mother
will give you whatever you ask for.

Here you go.

Go on.

The final results are in.

Your wife and child
have been diagnosed with...

...familial hypocholesterolemia.

It's type two,
the homozygous form is affected.

Where is your wife's family?

She doesn't have anyone
except me, doctor.

All right.

This is a genetically
transferred disease.

Sorry. This disease
is passed down genetically.

This disease came from
your wife's mother or grandmother.

It happens to only
one in a lakh.

It shows no symptoms
until tested.

The risk of a heart attack
is over 20 times...

...than that of a normal person.

You cannot treat this condition.

But we can keep it under control
with treatments and injections.

And you have to go
to Colombo for that.

An injection will cost around...

...Rs10 to Rs20 lakhs...

...for a week.

Stay strong
and try to find the money.

Or just keep them happy
for the rest of their lives.

Mother!

What does it mean?

Thirukkural.

It means.....
-What does it mean, mom?

We can't hide the love
in our hearts.

When we are in trouble,
it flows as tears.

Dad!

Don't come out at night.

There are many venomous insects
around here.

Okay, dad.

Dad!

You haven't spoken to us
for two days.

We haven't eaten yet.

We were waiting for you
to eat together.

If we've done something wrong,
please forgive us.

But whatever it is,
don't overthink it.

We did no harm to anyone.

Everything will be fine.

But don't stop talking to us.

Just keep them happy
for the rest of their lives.

When I spoke to him
that way the other day,...

...all of you sent me out.

But today, poor thing,...

...his wife and daughter are
suffering from a serious disease.

And treatment is expensive.

He doesn't know what to do.

He is at a loss.

You said he contributed so much
to the village and society.

Now it's our turn
to help him.

We must help him now,
not later.

So, what should we do?

Hey, just wait.

Ashok, you tell us.
-We'll go fishing tomorrow.

Whatever money we earn
must be given to Anthony.

He is right.

We must help.

We can't just let him suffer.

For the sake of Anthony,
we'll go fishing.

We must help him.
We'll see how it goes.

The boys are right.

Whether we make a loss or profit,
it's all for Anthony.

The sky has stretched wide...

Like the heart of the poor...

The sea has spread endlessly...

Like a hut filled
to the brim with sorrow...

Roar of the waves...

Rises, speaking the language
of hardship...

Life has been
lived and worn thin...

Dad, who is this?

He's the one
who made everyone happy.

The sky has stretched wide...

Like the heart of the poor...

A house by the shore...

It is a cuckoo's nest...

Where the sound of waves and
the cuckoo's song blend as one...

Will the fisher
return with pearls...

Will the diver bring fish...

Watching dawn
that never breaks...

Even when night's curse
is gone...

The day still
does not rise for us...

The sky has stretched wide...

Like the heart of the poor...

We'll work without tiring...

And love without limit...

Casting nets in the waves...

Living on what we get..

Even in worries,
deep in our hearts...

We are together..

I am yours...

God has given you to me...

We'll live and rise
in this world...

The sky has stretched wide...

Like the heart of the poor...

The sea spreads endlessly...

Like a hut filled
to the brim with sorrow...

The worthy witnesses,...

...after giving their consent,
called for him.

God sent His own son
for their sake.

In our culture,
we often refer to Him...

...as 'the Lord' or 'God'.

Looking upon God,
the people of Israel.....

The beloved son...

...became their redeemer from sin.
He brought them to salvation.

He took a new life.

Then Jesus said to them.

"All of you will stumble in
connection with me on this night.

I will strike the shepherd...

...and the sheep of the flock
will be scattered about."

Has she slept?

I guess she is sleeping.

All right,
I will go fishing again.

Mom!

Hey!

Nila!

Nila!

Are you sleeping, dear?

Look at me.

Dear!

I will take you to the sea.

Mom won't tell anything.

Mom!

Why didn't you tell me?

Why didn't you tell me?

Do you know what she endured?
-Please forgive me.

I didn't want you to know.

Please forgive me.

Nila, my baby!

Dad!

Can I come with you?

Mom's going to hit you.

Let's go to mom.

Brother Anthony!
Go in and check.

Brother Anthony!

What happened?

There is no one home.
-No one?

Probably they have gone
to the church.

But his cycle is still here.

Ulakka, get the boat.
Ask uncle to join us.

A house by the shore
is a cuckoo's nest...

Where the sound of waves an
the cuckoo's song blend as one..

Will the fishe
return with pearls...

Will the diver bring fish...

Watching dawn
that never breaks...

Even when night's curse
is gone...

The day still does not
rise for us...

Ashok, you go first.
-Hey, get on the boat.

Hey, come faster!
-Come on!

We should have brought mom too.

I'd love to,
but your mom doesn't like to come.

Why is that so?
-Nothing, dear.

Your mom and my mom
have a small business together.

We'll work without tiring...

And love without limit...

Casting nets in the waves...

Living on what we get...

Brother Anthony!
They must be here!

Brother!

I am yours...

God has given you to me...

Hey, go over there!

Check everywhere!
-Did you see them?

Look for them.

Go over there, Ulakka!

There is no one over here!

It's too deep over here, man.

Search over there, Ulakka.
-There is no one here.

There is no one here.
Search over there, Ulakka.

We can't find Anthony.

We can't see anything.
-There is no one here.

It's too deep here.

How does he know
the sea so well?

Every year,
on Anthony's memorial day,...

...the villagers gather to collect
funds for the sick and the poor.

We'll continue
the tradition this year as well.

Anthony and his family
will forever remain in our hearts.

Amen.

My mother,
the Mother of sea...

The body you gave us
is from you...

My mother,
the Mother of sea...

The body you gave us
is from you...

A debt that never ends...

This is the time to repay it...

In our trembling hearts...

You bear the weight of our debt...

We have laid down
every burden at your feet...

My mother,
the Mother of sea...

All our life here...

Depends on the mercy
in your eyes...

In every life yet to come...

Grant us the grace
to worship you...
