Original subtitles

Hey, Rangu!

Hey!

Time to wake up, Rangu.

Rangu!

Wake up!

Rangu!

Wake up!

Why did you leave the firewood out in the rain?

Don't include my family members.

I have lots of work to do.

Don't exaggerate. And stop blabbering.

That's rubbish.

-You are enjoying the fruits of my labor. -Stop it.

-I'll thrash you bad! -Don't provoke me.

I can get provoked, very easily.

-Do you think I'm just killing time? -Keep quiet!

I work very hard.

Make it fast.

-Stop it! -Have some patience.

-I want my tea! -Give me a moment.

Hurry up, I say!

I'll definitely clear the debt.

I promise, I'll clear it off.

Yet, you have the audacity to raise your voice.

I'll clear it by the end of the day, you mother fucker!

To hell with your tea stall!

Tea, please.

-To hell with you. -Take it easy.

Get me some tea.

I should've gone to some other tea stall.

Have some patience.

You can go to another tea stall, if you wish.

Ignore him.

I'll clear the debts by the end of the day.

I have made my words clear.

Such a ridiculous tea stall!

Don't visit his stall.

-He serves nothing but plain water. -Why did you take the credit, then?

Settle the account before you raise your voice.

Mom, don't keep repeating the same thing.

What am I repeating?

I'm registering the land in your name. You must come along.

I don't need any land.

It's not necessary.

I'll be back after the trip.

I have to take care of the formalities.

Bhakkiyam has safe guarded our money.

I'll get that money from her.

I'll hand that over to Veeranan.

Make sure you wear a good saree.

-Let's get you registered. -Register the land under your name.

I don't need the land.

I've decided.

Don't drag this conversation.

Bye, Mom.

Take care.

Accountant.

-Accountant. -Come in.

Boss.

Safeguard the receipts.

-Greetings. -Greetings.

Take this.

-Rangu. -Yes?

This is a very important letter.

Make sure you personally deliver this to Meeraatha in Vattaparai.

Okay. Got it.

-Make sure you bring the ledger. -Okay.

-Accountant. -Yes?

-I'll be away for a while. -Why?

-For the land registration. -I'll handle it. You're not required.

I've passed the information.

My brother must have hired a car.

-I'll have the sweet pudding. -Okay.

Kethara is fast asleep.

Why have they erected a podium there?

Ramayya's mother passed away.

I'll have tea.

-Which path are you taking today? -Saakaloothu Mettu.

Bro!

Why don't you just take a break?

I'm tired of searching for you.

I was at the movies. Got the last show.

It started raining. So, I slept here itself.

Have this.

Two teas, please.

Shall I borrow this bench?

You need not seek my permission.

Rangu. Give me a hand.

Haven't prepared the lights, yet?

-Do I need to pass the news? -I've already done it.

They must be on their way.

Uncle.

-Why are you hitting them? -They aren't obliging.

-What do you mean? -They aren't obeying me.

Move.

-Move. -Careful.

-You land registration is due tomorrow. -Yes.

Is it the Veeranan land located on the Kariyanampatti foothills?

Yes.

It's a rocky terrain.

You need not worry.

-We can clear it. -Okay.

We are lucky enough to get this business.

Your parents have slogged hard for their wages.

But your father wasn't lucky enough.

You want to buy land before your mother passes away.

Why don't you follow the path?

Why are you hitting them? Are you insane?

The bosses are in urgent need.

That's why the donkeys are carrying the load.

Otherwise, they are no longer required.

Why do you divert your anger towards them?

Despite knowing that it's fatal, they are made to carry the load.

We can't help them.

The donkeys are barred from engaging in regular chores.

We barely use them for such things.

They are helpless.

I know it's wrong to hit them.

Move.

Keep moving.

Move.

Are you trying to be nice after having whacked them hard?

Why do you hurt innocent creatures?

Is this the only path that leads to Kerala?

There are many other routes.

There is one route on this side and one via Saakaloothu.

A path via Pathinettaam Padi.

There are many such paths.

This is Kuthirai Paanjaan.

This path leads to Saaraparai.

Manathodu.

Thalayankaval.

Namari.

Uduppan Solai.

You can reach all these villages in Kerala through this path.

Those men have reached. You can join them.

-These men? -Yes.

-Aunt! -What have you brought for me?

-Lachumi, get me some coffee. -Okay.

Bhakkiyam.

Why are you grinding it so late?

Elephant intrusion.

The chores got delayed because we were chasing the elephants away.

One elephant was creating a ruckus.

I have been working all night.

Who is this guy?

He is my relative.

-He is from Nilakottai. -Okay.

He needs to invite people in Manathoadu for a family function.

He is scared of elephants.

Are you scared of elephants?

Don't be scared of them.

Actually.

If we mind our business, the elephants don't bother us.

In the worst case scenario

you can plead and the elephants won't harm you.

-Are you sure? -Yes.

Alright.

I'll kill them all!

Is that the mad woman wandering about?

I tried stopping her. But she seldom listens.

-Let's start. -Cook faster.

-Let's hurry. -Okay, Grandma.

-Let's go. -See you.

Bye.

-Goodbye. -Bye.

Take care.

-Come on. -Be careful.

Rangu, drop him at Manathoadu.

Okay.

-The elephants won't attack us. -Uncle.

I'm used to living in the plains.

These paths are new to me. So, I'm slightly scared.

We take the same route. Don't worry.

We care for our lives too.

It's my first trip.

I'm not used to this path.

The elephants are harmless creatures.

The elephants have seldom entered our territory.

We are the ones who cross their path.

We can't blame them.

The elephants follow a certain pathway.

We cross their path. Yet, we blame them.

They are not like us.

They don't change paths like humans do.

I agree.

Take him safely.

-Okay. -Bye.

Bye.

Uncle.

-Uncle. -Yes?

-Shall I assist you? You need help? -Excuse me!

Damn you!

I'm quite sure of the path. Get lost, you idiot.

I can travel safe even if I'm blinded.

Be careful.

Make sure you reach safely.

You used to follow me. Now, you are trying to teach me!

-Come on. -Okay.

Where does that path lead us?

Both the paths lead to the hilltop.

That's the path for donkeys. It's farther.

Excuse me.

As he mentioned,

if we stick to our path

-the elephants won't harm us. -That's right.

Elephants?

They are harmless.

But if it's a raging elephant,

it can launch a fatal attack.

Why are you scaring him?

-Keep moving. -Okay.

Rangu, I can't match your pace.

Take your time. I'll go ahead.

-Okay. -Be careful.

Excuse me.

Let's keep moving.

Wait.

If you take breaks, we won't reach on time.

We need to speed-up.

Come on.

Put this stone in your pocket.

Why?

I'll explain it later.

Come on.

-Bro. -Yes?

Why do you go through all this hard work?

Can't you get a job at the foothills?

There are no jobs down there.

We can cultivate crops provided we own a land.

I don't have that luxury.

My father used to use donkeys to transport goods to the cardamom estates.

I'm carrying on the lineage now.

I'll kill all the elephants.

I'll kill all the elephants.

I'll kill all the elephants.

I'll kill all the elephants.

I'll kill all the elephants.

-I'll kill all the elephants. -What are you doing?

I'll kill all the elephants.

I'll kill them!

Your money is being looted over there. Scoot now.

-Go. Be quick. -How dare they!

I'll slay!

I'll stab you to death.

I'll stab you to death. Get lost, you morons.

Give me my money.

Get lost.

-Don't touch my money. -Listen up.

Why is the woman shouting?

The lady and her husband used to work for the estate.

She has a daughter.

They wanted to get her married.

They were traveling towards the foothills

with their lifetime earnings.

They were chased by an elephant.

It killed her husband.

Her husband died, right in front of her.

The money in her hands scattered everywhere.

Since then, she has gone mad.

Since then

she has been wandering.

Her relatives got her daughter married.

On special occasions, her daughter gets her new clothes and bangles.

She only takes the bangles.

An elephants' behaviour is unpredictable.

They spared this lady.

-Let's take a break. -Bro!

-We've come closer. -Wait.

We shall reach in five minutes.

How do you cover such a distance, daily?

I have no other option.

Come on.

We'll take a break near Satha.

-Listen up. -What is it?

Can we get some water?

No. There is no water here.

We'll get water at the hilltop.

-At the hilltop? -Yes.

How far is it?

We are near Satha.

If we cross one more steep, we'll be reaching the hilltop.

How much distance have we covered?

One fourth.

This is Satha Medu and we are one steep away.

Shall we rest for a while?

We won't reach on time if we take breaks.

We can reach sooner if we keep up a continuous pace.

Seems like you'll make this our final journey.

Keep moving, Bro!

Oh, no!

Oh, no!

Hey!

Your relatives were waiting for you.

-My relatives? -Yes.

There's no way my relatives would be here.

Four elephants were waiting to smash you.

You are lucky. They left just now.

Not just four, even if 400 elephants come here

they won't be able to stop me from taking rest.

Keep quiet.

Give me that stone.

-Which stone? -The one I asked you to keep.

-Yes. -That one.

-Why do you need it? -I'll explain.

-What are you up to? -Come here.

Remove your sandals.

Come here.

Keep the stone here.

Come on.

Wish for something good and keep it over there.

Why are the stones heaped over here?

This is Satha.

God of trekkers.

Okay.

Sit down.

People who travel for the first time.

People with ailments.

They carry a stone with them.

"I'll carry your burden."

"You carry mine."

That's their prayer. And they leave the stones here.

They go to the peak and thank God by performing some rituals.

This is the history of this custom.

Also, for porters like us

who travel alone

we need a platform to lift our sacks.

We use this heap as a leverage.

Maybe this is the purpose of this custom.

Whatever be the purpose, Satha is always regarded as our God.

-Mr. Marimuthu? -Yes, Rangu.

-Are you at Satha? -Yes.

-If you happen to meet my wife. -What do I tell her?

Tell her that my trip was successful.

-Okay. -Tell her I'm on my way.

Okay.

You can leave. They are coming this way.

-I'll join them. -It's okay.

I disturbed your routine.

You can proceed now.

-I'm fine. -Listen to me.

You can go.

It's just an uphill. I'll manage.

Take care.

Bye.

-Marimuthu! -Yes?

He is Bhakkiyam's relative who came to invite his kins.

Yes, she told me.

Guide him to the hilltop.

-Sure. I will. -Thanks.

Don't forget to pass the message to my wife.

Sure.

-Be careful. Take care. -Okay.

-Bye. -Goodbye.

Hey.

-Hold on. -What happened?

I forgot to invite you.

I forgot because of this tiresome journey.

I hope you don't mind, I'm inviting you in an informal way.

-You both must come. -Okay.

-Will you? -I'll definitely come.

-I'll join them. -Okay.

-Bye. -See you.

-Bye. -See you.

-Sir. -Why are you late?

Bhakkiyam's relative had come to invite his kins.

Where is he?

He is resting near Satha Medu.

I have asked Marimuthu to guide him.

I brought sugar.

Keep it inside and take the money.

Okay.

-I'll prepare coffee. -Alright.

Mrs. Marimuthu, your husband is on the way.

Did he pass any message?

He promised to get your daughter married to me.

Shut up, you crazy. You tell me.

His trip was fruitful. He must've crossed the hilltop.

Wait! Let me get you some black coffee.

I'll leave. I'm running out of time.

We have lots of work to do.

Don't waste our time.

You enjoy your coffee.

You have brought me good news.

Have this sweet.

Here.

I won't have it until I get married to your daughter.

Hey, Latchumi.

Where are you?

My husband is on the way.

Has everyone arrived?

Who amongst you worked at the eight acres of land?

-We did. -You?

Why do you ask?

-Greetings, Comrade. -Greetings, Rangu.

I received a complaint that the cardamom plants have been damaged.

Please don't do that again.

You must be cautious. Only then, will the jobs be secure.

It is very hard to find jobs for the labor union.

Take up the task at the eight acres.

-How many are you? -Five of us.

The five of you can take up the task at SR estate.

-How many men are there? -Seven.

Seven men.

-Nayar Estate. -Thank you.

We don't have work since two days. What shall we do?

You guys are three in total. Right? They are a group of about five to six.

They have no work since two days.

You may leave. I'll see what I can do.

Couldn't you be more careful?

I'm going to Vattaparai. I will be late.

-Okay, Rangu. -Stay close to the store room.

-Got it. -Don't make me search for you.

-Ask the porters to stay here. -Okay.

Got it? Bye.

Are you feeling better now?

Thank God you didn't injure your hand.

-Muruga! -Comrade Chaako, a moment please.

This is the union fund.

Tell them that those who haven't paid must expedite.

-You may go. -Okay.

Bye.

Pazhaniyamma, why didn't you attend the conference?

I wasn't feeling well.

Make sure you attend the next one.

Sure.

How are you?

I'm fine.

-Carry on. -Okay.

There is a giant leech in the forest.

It can suck your blood.

What did you just say?

-Mind your language. -A leech doesn't deserve it.

-You need to be taught a lesson. -Let see.

-Rangu! -Yes?

These are some medicines for my father.

-Take them home. -Okay.

-See you. -Alright.

-Rangu. -Yes?

-Convey my regards to Meeraatha. -Okay.

Bastards!

Son of a bitch! Moron!

Bloody losers!

Shame on the ones who brought you up!

-Three cardamoms, 300 jasmines. -Go away!

To hell with you!

Move!

-Move away! -Damn you!

Fuck off.

Bloody losers!

Bastards!

-Why do you always want to mess around? -Fuck off!

Bloody assholes!

-Shame on their parenting. -Calm down.

-Forget it. -They do that all the time.

Please, Kangaani.

I'll thrash them!

Come on.

This has become a routine.

Like father like son.

-Useless fellows! -Forget it.

-Got money from the boss? -Yes.

I need to tackle this all through the year.

My life is horrible!

The children are pests. Something quite wrong with the parenting.

Give me the receipt.

-Any message from the boss? -He asked me to get the ledger.

The cardamoms need to be plucked.

Union problems.

The boss has asked us to get it done with our men.

Let's manage.

Any message?

Yes.

Order some manure for the Aathukaadu estate.

I have to deliver a letter to Meeratha in Vattapaarai.

Is it?

-Okay, I'll get it done by someone else. -Thanks.

-Your land gets registered tomorrow. -Yes!

-Document it properly. -Sure.

-Okay. -See you.

Take that bag.

Keep the ledger in it.

Hey! Will you get me my money, or not?

-What is the matter? -It makes no sense at all!

Make sure you get my money from her.

-I'm tired of reminding you. -I ask her for your money, time and again.

When she gives it to me, I'll deliver it to you.

Why aren't you stern about it?

It's my hard earned money.

That money is the fruit of my labor.

I've worked very hard for that money.

Okay, I'll get it.

-What's my name? -Don't torture me.

A woman is not allowed to call out her husband's name.

I've tattooed it.

Examine it properly.

-Okay, I'll pass the message. -Make sure you do.

She is enjoying the fruits of my labor.

She never mends her ways.

-Hello. -Welcome, Rangasamy.

-How are you? -I'm fine.

Great.

-Is your mother doing well? -She is good.

-She suffers from joint pain. -I see.

I got her that medicinal oil.

Good.

-I met Chaako on the way. -I see.

-He asked me to pass this to you. -Thank you.

How are you?

-I'm fine, as usual. -Hope your health is good.

-Did you meet my son? -Yes.

-How is he? -He's good.

It has been twenty days since I last saw my son.

Oh, I see.

I asked him to get married. But, he doesn't want to.

I'm struggling with my ailments.

He is always engaged with his political commitments.

This will lead him nowhere.

-Tell him this when you meet him again. -Sure.

Tell him that I'm not feeling well.

-Sure. -Tell him I'd like to meet him.

-Okay, don't worry. Take care. -See you.

-Goodbye. -Take this tapioca home.

No, thank you.

Take it.

-Convey my regards to your mother. -Alright.

-See you. -Take some more.

-Bye. -Bye. Take care.

You discuss about our son with every visitor.

The party commitments are his first priority.

We shall see. Let destiny take its course.

Rangasamy, I saw Meeratha in Upparval.

-I'm going to visit him. -Okay.

-I delivered the medicines to your father. -I'm sure he had many things to say.

My father wants me to get married and lead a normal life.

Not possible! I'm committed to this job.

-My dad is always cribbing. -See you, then. Bye.

Take this.

Take both.

Mani, have you taken everything?

Take them to the vehicle.

Take it.

Ramakrishnan wanted some saplings.

-Ask him to visit tomorrow. -Definitely.

-Greetings. -Hi, Rangasamy.

-What brings you here? -I'm here to meet you.

-The boss has passed a message. -Okay.

-I went to the store to meet you. -Okay.

Your daughter told me you had come here to buy the saplings.

Why did you travel so far?

You should have passed the message through my daughter.

He insisted I must do it in person, as it's very important.

It is strange that he is passing orders through you, from the foothills.

Only those who pass through this passage know about its difficulties.

Why did you travel so far?

-Where are you going? -Sadhurangaparai.

-I'll drop you there. -I'll take the Kaathoodhi Medu route.

I'll drop you there.

-Did your boss pass any message? -No.

You land registration is scheduled for tomorrow.

Yes.

Do ask me for any financial assistance if needed.

Don't be hesitant like your father.

The cost of the land is less, as it's closer to the foothills.

The money I have, is sufficient.

Okay.

-Whose land are you buying? -Veeranan's.

-Veeranan's land in Kariyanampatti? -Yes.

-That stretch? -Yes.

Don't step on the cardamoms.

Careful.

Weigh it properly.

It's on the higher side.

For how long will you be weighing this?

-Done. -It's almost over.

-Don't step on the cardamoms. -Hurry up!

55!

Almost done. Here we come.

-Speed up. -Stitch it faster.

Why are you late, Rangasamy?

I had gone to Vattapaarai to visit Meeraatha.

He had gone to Upparval.

So, it took some time.

-What are you doing inside? -Come on!

Speed up.

-You are taking too much time! -It's almost over.

If I were you, I would've undertaken four trips until now

and I'd be working on the fifth one.

-Shameless guys! -You always boast about your times.

If you sum up the weight of all the load

that was carried by the donkeys and by us, when we were younger,

it would amount to a figure close to the height of the Western Ghats.

Don't talk rubbish.

The shape of my shoulders is proof of my hard work.

Look at the indelible mark it has left.

It's not easy, you moron!

-Pass it on. -Okay.

You deal with the tasks way too casually.

You can't even stitch properly.

Don't waste time. Keep going.

Lift the sacks.

Come on.

Move.

Keep moving.

You are taking hours for this job.

Want to bet on my skills?

Shall we race to the foothills?

You can start the race before I do.

-I'll follow after ten minutes. -Let's see.

Let's see who reaches first.

Come on.

Speed up.

Keep moving. I'll follow.

You started before dawn. But you are reaching late.

Get lost!

I would have finished four trips by now.

Tie the donkeys up against the pole and get me coffee, Kethara.

The hard work has made your body shrink.

Why?

Pass the coffee.

You could've reached earlier if you had carried the load yourself

instead of making the donkeys do so.

You got late because of that.

The donkeys and I have been taking the same path since ages.

Either the donkeys will die, or I will.

I will not stop until then.

You have grown old. You can't withstand the struggles.

Ask my wife about my vigor.

Behave like a matured person.

You need to accept that you are too old to lift.

-Try lifting it. -I will.

Why can't he carry the load?

-Let's go. -Get lost, you jerk.

Come on.

-Take care of the shop. I'll be back. -Okay.

Mookaiah.

Look at the way I lift it.

Don't provoke me!

I'll hit you!

I am self-sufficient and I'm not obliged to you in anyway.

You sold the donkeys and now you carry the load, yourself.

You dumb-ass!

-Get lost. -I forgot the gooseberries.

-I have the vigor. -It's getting late. Please give it to me.

-Get lost. -To hell with your shop.

Useless fellow!

Why do you provoke him?

Come on.

He doesn't listen to me. He is still managing with the donkeys.

A man must have dignity.

Why can't he carry it?

He is dependent on the donkeys.

Yes.

You talk as if the donkeys are carrying the mountains.

Just keep moving.

What's your problem?

We have carried tonnes through this path.

We were once hit by a heavy monsoon spell.

The rains were torrential.

All the animals were in hibernation.

All the access routes were damaged.

One of my bosses had financial trouble.

He asked me to carry a sack of cardamom to the foothills.

No one from the village was ready to take up the task.

I pitied him and offered to help.

Some people discouraged me.

But I couldn't refuse someone so helpless.

If someone asks me for a favour, I take it as my responsibility.

I carried the load and started walking.

The clouds were as dark as a honey comb.

All the paths leading to the foothills

were slowly vanishing.

The elephants were intimidating.

I put my trust in the deity that our forefathers believed in

and continued my journey.

Like a vulture landing to grasp a chicken,

I dropped the load at the warehouse.

The downpour was relentless.

After that incident, whenever my boss met me

he used to always greet me and acknowledge my efforts of that day.

You guys know nothing.

Ask him to take some rest.

He is coughing continuously.

Take some rest.

He has fallen down. Please give him a hand.

-Please lift him up. -What happened?

What happened?

-Take care. -Help him.

-What happened? -He vomited blood.

Sit down. Don't talk.

There's nothing to worry.

Distribute it.

Let's divide the load.

-Be careful with the cardamom. -Fill it up.

-Let me go. -Take rest, Bro.

Don't worry.

-Let me carry my sack. -Please wait.

Don't talk.

Listen to me. What's the matter?

Help him.

Take some rest. Do not worry.

Don't talk.

Fill it up.

-Don't talk. -Bro.

-Listen to me. -Leave it!

-Wait! -Leave it. I'll take care of it.

-Please leave. -I'll carry it.

Don't be stubborn. Listen to me.

Take some rest.

I'll tie it up.

-Don't touch it! -Let me tie it for you.

-Let me lift it. -Please take rest.

-Please take rest. -Let me lift it.

-Leave it. -I'm tying it up for you!

Why are you so adamant?

Listen, I'll carry it.

-I'll carry this. -I'll handle it.

Let us help you.

He will not listen to us. I don't know why he is so adamant.

All those who head towards the hilltop,

pile up these stones.

But you brought me down through these very stones.

Everyone uses you as...

a metaphor for trust.

I trusted the mountains.

You betrayed me.

You expected me to run away?

But, until my last breath

I'll keep coming.

I swear by you.

Look at me! You have to!

I will carry the load!

Hey, there!

Excuse me.

Please let me unload four baskets of tomatoes here.

Load it, Logu.

-Help him, Rangasamy. -Pass it on.

Please move aside.

-Rangu, keep it aside. -Okay.

-Be careful with the baskets. -Okay, Bro.

-Careful. -Hop on.

-Careful. -Hop on.

Make yourself comfortable.

Hold it tight.

Have you gotten used to the new atmosphere?

-Yes. No issues at all. -Good.

Before I got here, I was loaded with debts.

Now, I meet the farmers quite often.

I buy tomatoes.

I sell it for a commission and that's how I make ends meet.

Whatever you do, do it the right way.

Do maintain the records properly and follow professional ethics.

-Take good care of your family. -Okay.

Don't let the hardships turn you into a bad person.

-Absolutely. -Be careful.

Listen to me.

No way.

Don't interfere in my personal matters.

Keep quiet.

So, you will not listen.

Accountant.

-Let's go. -Where?

You knew I was coming today.

Let's meet Veeranan and give him the money.

He'll be here after tomorrow's registration.

Why are you in a hurry?

Let's go and give him the money.

-Why are you pestering me? -You are always surrounded by troubles.

-Shall I leave? -Okay. Bye.

-Goodbye. -See you.

Hi, Brother-in-law.

Welcome. Sit down.

Checking the ledger?

Tallying the remittance list.

-Alright. This man is after me. -What's the matter?

-He wants to give the money to you. -I see.

-Take the money. -I'll take it after the registration.

It's just a day ahead. I need to give it to you tomorrow, anyway.

You are a local person. So am I.

I'll take the money after the deal is done.

I'll keep it near God's portrait.

So, you won't listen to me.

Latch the door.

-Are you going for the registration? -Yes.

-All the best. -Thank you.

Bye.

-Walk fast. -I am walking fast.

I'm maintaining a good pace.

-How dare you! -Calm down.

Someone seems to be having a fight out there.

-Mind your business. -Don't shout!

-Everything is settled. -You are useless!

-Shut up! -Why are you creating a ruckus?

Why are you selling the ancestral property to clear your brother's loan?

Shut up.

Have you lost your mind?

Let's go. We need to leave.

I asked you to leave! Don't say a word!

I'll defame you. You better wait and watch.

Why don't you listen to me?

It's a family issue. I am helpless.

Please forgive me.

-It's okay. -Forgive me.

Why are you dejected?

Consider it as a blessing from our forefathers.

The rocky land was not very useful to us, anyway.

You said that there is work for harvesting cardamom at the estate.

Go to the hilltop.

Stay there for a while.

Go.

Bye, Mom.

Take care.

Tell me, Bro.

My brother works in Upparaval at the SR estate.

Okay.

His wife committed suicide owing to unbearable stomach pain.

I requested some porters.

But they were ready to go only in the morning.

So, I came to you.

If not informed immediately, they will push for a postmortem.

-They will take it for an autopsy. -I'll inform them.

Make it fast.

-No need to give me money. -It's for your conveyance.

-I'll do it. -Speed up.

I'll do the needful. Will you join me?

-I'll watch a movie and join you tomorrow. -Take this.

Return this cycle without fail.

-Okay. Take care. -Bye.

Hey! Who is that?

Hey! Stop.

Who is that?

Hey! Stop, I say.

Stop. Who are you?

Mani, Chandran, Rasa! Please come. We've been attacked by the thieves.

They are running towards the east. Help me.

Hey, flash the light. Someone is screaming.

Nephew!

He is trapped. Cut it off.

Someone please hold his hip.

Hold his head.

Careful.

Slowly.

Careful!

Carry him carefully.

-Who is he? -Could you be extra careful?

I think it's Rangasamy.

-Rangasamy? -Yes.

I was hoping to eat pork.

What are you doing here?

Go home and prepare black coffee.

Those setting up a pig trap, should lay it on the path.

-Be careful. -They are coming, Eswari.

My dad is coming. Go inside.

-Come in. -No, I should leave.

Just sit for a while and then you can leave.

-Eswari. -Dad!

-Get a stool. -Okay.

Sit.

-Is the coffee ready? -Yes, I'll get it.

Is it hurting too much?

It is bearable.

This has become their routine.

I would have slayed them like I slay pigs.

What are you laughing about? Pass the coffee and go inside.

I laughed because uncle was talking about slaying a pig.

Here.

It was the same gang.

They looted the ten acres estate.

One day they will get caught. I'm sure.

Got enough sugar?

That's fine. Just get inside.

Get in.

-Is it hurting too much? -Not really.

-Are my girls here? -Yes, they are inside.

Come on, Girls. Time's up. We need to sleep.

Come quickly.

-Be careful. Don't get trapped again. -Don't repeat the same thing.

Take extra care while going back.

-Going home or to Thalayangaaval? -Thalayangaaval.

-You can drop him. -No, I will manage.

-Those thieves might follow you. -It's okay.

Escort him to the road.

-Goodbye. -Bye.

-I'll take your leave. -Alright.

-You always keeping mocking him. -Not really, Dad.

Won't he listen? I had asked him to stop working.

Kangaani has informed him.

But the boss doesn't agree.

-Is Kangaani there? -Yes.

Stop talking and keep moving.

You only know how to demand snacks.

Move faster.

Kangaani, stop them.

-What? -I've told this to you many times.

You must employ only union members.

Summon everyone here.

Why do you employ less men, at such a large estate?

You must employ the union members. Inform your boss.

What can I do?

I've told this to him many times.

He isn't listening to me.

Your people are suffering from unemployment.

Ask your boss to call the union office. Then, you can proceed.

-Okay. -Ask your boss to call.

-See you tomorrow. -We need to work.

-Settle the wages. -Move. Keep moving.

We must not allow this.

How can he work without the union members?

Have the union members arrived?

Speed up.

Stop talking. Keep moving.

Why do you talk so much?

New members of the union, raise your hands.

Okay.

Ponnuthayi, take them to the western portion.

Pasupathy, take them to the southern portion.

Muthurasa, take them to the north.

Have you ordered the snacks?

She comes here only to have snacks.

-Have patience. -He gorges on the snacks himself.

Can't you order it earlier?

-Mind your business. -We are doing that.

Oothuraasa.

I'll thrash you to death!

Are you trying to be bossy?

Kethara. How much time will it take?

The snacks were prepared just now.

That's why it took some time.

Open it. Fast.

Open it.

Open it.

Three cardamoms, 300 jasmines.

You moron!

Bloody moron!

I'll kill you!

No wages for this week.

Setting up a mockery show?

You losers!

Come on.

People from this portion won't get paid.

-Damn you! -What's wrong?

Stop bothering me.

You have to come to me to get the salary.

Get lost!

They never mend their ways. They have made it a routine.

I employed the union members, as per your instructions.

Why the hell are you here?

I'm here for something important.

I'm taking Oothuraasa and Bommayan.

These two will substitute.

Go.

Do as you wish.

It's just bad luck.

Bomma.

Oothuraasa.

-He is downstairs. -Bomma! Come here.

-Here I come. -Come.

Chaako, do you want some snacks?

No, thanks. You can have it.

You must go down there.

-Be quick. -Any issues?

Ravi is creating trouble.

Is he not listening to you?

Stop working.

Stop working!

Come on.

I've already warned you.

You must employ more laborers in a large estate.

Don't you get it?

We eat unpolished rice.

Why do you support the ragi eating Tamils?

That's not the point.

Language is not the barrier here.

I'm concerned about all the laborers.

-That's it. -Really?

Let me remind you, it's my estate.

-It doesn't matter whose estate it is. -It does, you moron.

It's my estate.

It's my father's.

-Get out, you moron! These dogs-- -Mind your tongue!

-Come again. -How dare you!

-You want a job? Serve me as a slave. -Damn you!

What can you do, after all?

Get lost, you losers!

-Mind your language! -How dare you!

Mind your language!

-Comrade. -Get lost.

-Comrade. Please! -What's the problem?

Ask him to mind his language.

Mind your language!

I'm speaking on behalf of the party.

-This will not end well. -Mind your language.

I ignored it because your father passed away three months ago.

-Mind your language. -Comrade, you mind your language.

He was using bad words.

Have you paid the chit installment?

I'll be going to my hometown this Sunday. I'll pay up then.

Queue up!

The people from that portion can leave.

You don't get a salary. Just leave.

I told you about this, the other day. Please leave.

This is not fair. Why is he asking us to leave?

Here. Keep moving.

Keep moving.

Come and get it.

Take it and leave.

-Keep moving. -This is just not fair.

Why should we keep quiet while getting paid meagerly for the labor?

-Keep moving. -What shall I do with this money?

Why should we keep quiet?

Seems like we need to keep mum about this meager salary.

-Why should we? -It's unfair.

Hey! Don't you understand?

I told you the other day that you don't get paid. Just leave.

-Three cardamoms, 300 jasmines! -Bloody thieves!

I will not spare you!

I'll kill you. You better mend your ways!

Hey!

Hey!

Oh God! I lost my money!

Hey!

-Here, take this. -You!

Three cardamoms, 300 Jasmines.

Serve me some curry.

Get me some meat.

-There's no meat left. -It's not tasty.

It lacks salt and spice.

Shut up and eat. It's tasty.

Finish it and leave.

You didn't add turmeric. The food is bland.

That's how I always cook.

-Don't buy meat henceforth. -Lachumi.

Take this money.

Is the meat well-cooked?

Yes, Eswari. It's cooked well.

It's good.

-Did you make the deposit? -Yes.

I have some savings. I'm planning to get her married to a good man.

We initiated the talks, but it didn't go well.

You are a fool.

Rangasamy is right here.

He is your nephew.

Just shut up.

I need to focus on buying the land. Why bring up this marriage issue?

Stay quiet.

He's the best contender for your daughter.

Discuss it with your sister.

I will.

See you.

-Think about my suggestion. -Definitely.

-Just arrived? -Yes.

Eswari, aren't you keeping well?

I'm fine.

Nothing to worry.

Bhakkiyam proposed a marriage alliance with Rangasamy.

-Since then she seems to be dejected. -Bhakkiyam is right.

Why didn't you think of it earlier?

Kaliamma is almost like a sister to you.

In that case, this girl can be married to Rangasamy.

-Yes. -He is a good guy.

You need not think twice. He is a good guy.

Are you okay with this?

If Kaliamma agrees, I have no objection.

Let's discuss this with Kaliamma early in the morning.

Okay, we shall.

Why were you searching for a groom elsewhere?

What's your opinion?

He wants to get married only after buying some land.

Would you have been born if your parents had decided the same thing?

We are wiser than you.

-Actually-- -Stay quiet!

What's your final decision?

I obviously want my son to get married.

-I give my consent. -Your sister has agreed.

We shall schedule the engagement on an auspicious day.

Okay.

See you.

Bye.

Long live the revolution!

Long live the revolution!

Long live CPIM!

Long live CITU!

Down! Down!

Down with capitalism!

By eradicating slavery.

And by winning over the rights of plantation workers.

The plantation fields that spread across five acres.

For all who have toiled hard.

For establishing the labor union.

People who had participated in it.

And those who sacrificed their lives due to bullet injuries.

This rally is to salute their bravery.

Don't feel shy.

Is everyone here?

-Welcome, Chaako. -Take a seat.

-Good timing. -Eswari.

-I wanted to discuss something. -Tell me.

He is one of the porters in our estate.

She has enrolled in the union as well.

It has been announced in the conference

that estates of five acres or more

should employ members of the union.

Instead of registering and working at some other estate

let them register at our estate.

If they work here,

they can live in the house at the estate.

If they work together for four years,

he can lead a prosperous life after buying some land here itself.

His mother can survive on her own.

Please do me a favor.

You are the eldest and the most respected one among us.

I'll surely oblige.

Thank you.

I need some more time. You may leave.

-Have food. -No.

-Is the jeep available? -Yes.

-Goodbye, then. -Bye.

Bye, Eswari.

Bye.

Somehow, I will get you registered in the union.

Thank you.

In this silent place

She has grown up.

Stop it. The old lady might hear it.

-Get inside! -Shouldn't I clean the utensils?

-Get inside, I say! -You asked me to clean it.

Stop talking.

Go, chop the vegetables.

Get in.

Chop the vegetables.

Fine! Henceforth, don't ask me do any work outside.

Aunt!

Aunt?

Why are you sad?

-Tell me. -Nothing serious.

Come on! You can tell me.

She has grown up.

I feel helpless.

If her parents were alive, they'd have married her off.

I took care of her since she was a child. Now, I can't.

She has grown up.

I have to get her married very soon.

Varusanadu happens to be her aunt. Her family is quite good.

But, she demands a dowry.

I'm ready to give it.

If she gets married into that family, she will lead a happy life.

Right.

But I can't do much with the money I have.

The land at the foothills is unused.

I want to sell it so that I can get her married.

Okay.

Why don't you buy the land?

All of a sudden?

What's the matter?

-Speak to your family, if you wish to. -I'll have a word with Eswari.

I'll wait for a positive reply.

-Okay. -Don't forget.

-See you later. -See you.

Don't be so quiet.

Nothing will happen unless we proceed.

We do have some money.

If not sufficient,

we'll sell my jewelry and buy the land.

That's a fertile land.

Tell her that we will buy it.

Okay?

-Accountant. -Yes?

Rangasamy is here.

-Please come. -Hi.

Sit down.

How much money did you get?

Actually...

I sold the earrings. I mortgaged the nuptial chain as well.

But still, there is a shortage.

So, I am a little confused.

You need not worry.

Cardamoms have a good market price now.

We'll arrange a meeting with the boss.

We'll buy a sack of cardamoms at the cost price.

If you give it to Damodharan, the merchant

he will sell it at a good price.

We can clear the shortage with that amount.

Sounds good. But how do I go about asking the boss?

You need not ask him.

I'll talk to him.

Don't worry. Okay?

Okay.

Hello, Accountant.

Here I come.

-Greetings, Boss. -Greetings.

What brings you here?

-The one who works in our estate. -Who?

-Rangasamy. -Yes.

He wants to buy some land.

He has some money and he is pushing me to strike the deal.

Which land?

The land at the foothills.

-There's a shop owned by Bhakkiyam there. -Yes.

-The land next to the shop. -So what?

So, he wanted me to explain this to you

and make an arrangement.

If you can sell him a sack of cardamom at the actual price

he can resell it.

And he can manage with the profit gained.

I promised him that I'll discuss this with you.

-Is it so? -He is here with the money.

-Okay. -Yes.

-Ask him to come in. -Okay.

Come in.

-Greetings. -Hello.

Handover the money to him.

-I've informed the accountant. -I see.

He'll get you a receipt with which you can get a sack of cardamon from the estate.

Okay.

-Thank you very much. -Thank you.

-Goodbye. -Bye.

Why are you taking that off?

You'll see.

Why are you tying it to a tree?

Just keep quiet.

-Why did you do that? -I'll let you know.

The boss has asked me

to give you this receipt and take the cardamom sack.

Okay.

Give it to me.

Alright.

Come on.

Carry it.

Not that. Carry the other one.

This one is of better quality.

Careful. Lift it properly.

Until now, you have been carrying it for your bosses.

Today, you are carrying it for yourself.

I'm happy for you.

Careful.

Careful.

Come on.

Let's go.

-Come on. -Shall we leave?

Come on.

Where is our land?

We are about to see it.

Did you buy the cardamom?

Yes.

-Are you coming to see our land? -No, thanks.

Where is it?

Wait.

-Where is our land? -Please wait. Be patient.

-Dad! Are we there yet? -Have some patience.

-Where is our land? -I'll show it to you, my dear.

-Where is our land? -I'll show it!

-Come on. Sit beside your mother. -Sit.

Where is our land?

Can you see a stream?

Yes.

-Where is it? -Look straight.

Can you see a stream?

There is an embankment under that stream.

-There. -Where?

-There is an embankment under that stream. -Yes.

There is a tree near the embankment.

-Where is it? -Over there.

Can you see the tree?

-Where? -Right there.

A tree near the stream.

Did you find it? Look!

-Can you see it? -Yes.

Can you see the white cloth tied to the tree?

-Yes. -That's our land.

Uncle Kethara!

-Did you see our land? -Yes, I saw it.

-Wait, let me pluck some gooseberries. -Everyone, take a look at our land!

This is our land!

Take a look at our land!

Give me my money.

Give it back.

Give me my money.

Give back my money.

Sleep.

My dear.

What your mother said was true.

If we keep calm, how can she proceed with the wedding?

Bhakkiyam has started the wedding preparations.

The land.

Even if we can't buy it,

at least we can give her some money.

Can we get some loan from Mr. Meeratha?

What are you thinking about?

Actually...

I've never taken a loan from anyone.

So, I'm a little hesitant.

Why are you hesitant about it?

That girl's wedding is at stake.

Don't think too much.

Ask him about it tomorrow itself.

Okay.

When did you get here?

Just now.

Alright.

For whom have you bought this juice?

Bhakkiyam has come to give out the invitations.

-Invitations? -Your mom asked me to buy this.

-There she is. -She is not at home?

Out for some harvesting work. She will be back by evening.

Okay, I'll see you soon.

They've arrived.

-Why are you late? -When did you get here?

-Take this. -There you go.

Have it.

Eswari, come here.

Coming.

Take this.

The invitation card.

Please do come.

-The land related documents are here. -Documents?

Take it.

-I don't want to take it. -Let me explain.

Meeratha had come yesterday.

He forced me to take the money.

He asked me to give you these documents.

I tried to convince him, but he was adamant.

Keep this.

Take it. You can talk to him later.

I have nothing to say.

Greetings.

Come in, Rangasamy.

Sit down.

It's okay.

Please sit.

Subaida, get some water for Rangasamy.

What's the matter?

Bhakkiyam gave me this document.

It's yours.

-What's wrong? -I don't want to take it for free.

So, I came to return it.

You're not taking anything for free. I owe a lot to your father.

He worked on the terrain.

There's your pride involved.

Your father and that man from Pannaipuram,

Mookaiah, as well as the others,

they've all worked very hard under any given circumstance.

They helped me garner this property.

I owe a lot to your father.

Do you want me to be obligated to you as well?

Take it.

I'll take this if you are ready to accept payment in installments.

-Or else, I don't want it. -Really?

Okay, as you wish.

-Take it. You are the witness, Kethara. -Okay.

He has promised to pay in installments. I'll receive the same.

Subaida, he will give us the money.

Collect all installments and keep a record of it.

Happy?

It's not for free.

I'll pay, somehow.

Okay, take your time.

-Alright, then. Bye. -I'll leave.

-See you, later. -Okay.

Seems like he will clear off the loan.

Pray to God.

You have bought the land for the first time.

Pray to God for all kinds of benefits.

Put some mud into your mouth.

Take some home.

-Kethara. -Yes, Rangu?

-Pray to God. -It's okay.

-You carry on. -Come on.

Take it.

Pray.

-Rangasamy. -Yes?

You are now a farmer. But, you didn't invite me to the prayer.

Please come.

-Take this offering. -Pray to God.

Let's take a look at it.

Deal with your business proceedings through me.

Of course.

Come on.

I'll wait there. Come there once it's done.

Where are you going at this hour?

I'll go visit our land.

-It's raining heavily. -Let me go.

-I'll go and take a look. -I'm scared.

-I'm scared. -Look!

-I've asked the men to harvest. -Don't go.

-I've asked the men to harvest-- -Please don't go.

-It's flooding everywhere. -I have asked the men to harvest.

-I should visit at least once. -No. Please sit.

The plants will perish.

We can take care of that tomorrow.

To hell with this rain!

I have to go.

Look!

Look there, at the back.

Last night's rainfall has destroyed everything!

We are searching for that mad woman.

Don't worry, Rangasamy.

With respect to farming,

losses and gains are unpredictable.

Don't worry.

If you continue to sow conventional crops like maize and ragi,

you won't earn money and it won't benefit you.

Different types of new hybrid seeds are available in the market.

If you sow them,

there'll be bountiful fruits and flowers.

Okay.

The profit will be four times more than the investment.

You can earn very well over a span of two years.

-Okay. -Don't worry, I have the stock.

It's right here.

-Okay. -Right.

-I don't have money. -Forget about the money.

Money doesn't matter.

Pass it.

Two packets of seeds.

The one which was delivered yesterday.

Two packets of seeds from that.

The pesticides too.

Fertilizers.

Give it all to Rangu.

-Don't worry about the money. -Okay.

I'll keep a record.

-Pay me once you get the money. -Okay.

Pay as per your convenience. I'll keep the record.

Human connections are important.

It's you that I need to help.

I left my village and came here with no money.

I'm here today just because of you.

If we can't help each other, it doesn't make any sense.

If you can't get profit this year,

you can pay me, the next time.

I will get it.

Please don't hesitate.

Don't worry. I'm here to help.

Be strong.

What do people have to say about our conference?

It was better than what we expected.

Did people from Ottathi participate?

The people were there, as promised.

-Comrade is in-charge of Sadhurangaparai. -Yes.

-How many people came from that place? -I expected around 300 to 350.

Around 500 to 550 men had come.

What about Manathoadu?

-What about Manathoadu? -I'm not in-charge of that.

I was dealing with Parathoadu.

About seven trucks full of people have come from there.

-Yes. I saw that. -Yes, indeed.

I wanted to discuss something. But, I wasn't able to.

What is it, Comrade?

About the new roads.

Your thoughts about the roads?

We have no problem with the roads.

We have concerns.

The new roads bring machinery to the estates.

It will affect our laborers.

-That's his concern. -How will it affect our laborers?

It may not affect them directly.

The machinery will reduce the work force.

We will employ them for other tasks.

The poor laborers are going to suffer.

It will affect them.

It's not possible.

If it happens--

You always seem to be opposing any new reform.

Chaako is not finding faults with your statements.

He is not against the machinery.

How will the new machinery affect our laborers?

-Let's think about that later. -No.

A true communist is the one who

thinks in advance, not afterwards.

Are you teaching communism to me?

I'm not teaching. I'm stating the fact.

I function very well on a national level.

-Do you know that? -You are deviating from the issue.

Decision making must be futuristic.

-Don't try to teach me. -I'm not teaching you.

A communist working for laborers shouldn't use such words.

-Why did you get angry? -I have done a lot.

He is defending our men.

-Comrade. -Hi. Come in.

I had a word with Mr. Sasi.

He said that he was in a bad mood. So, he spoke out of frustration.

-There's nothing to worry. -I have been saying it.

-But he is ignoring it. -We'll resolve the matter.

There is some problem in Munaar estate.

Comrade Rajaiah is not available.

So, someone from here has to go there.

Mr. Sasi has asked you to go.

While leaving, deliver this letter to the Devi Kulam party office.

-Devi Kulam office? -Yes.

What about the conference?

-I will manage with the workforce there. -Okay, bye.

Take care.

-What are you doing? -Stop it.

Why are you locking it up?

Should we end up on the streets?

What's the matter?

It's a court order. Deal with it legally.

-Got it? -We don't care about court orders.

-We will not allow you to lock it. -Stop it.

-I'll not let you do it! -Stay away!

-How dare they! -Lock it up.

Keep them away.

There you go.

Are you done?

Let's go.

Where will we go if you ask us to leave?

Wait.

Please try to understand. It's a court order.

I have nothing to do with it. Work in some other estate.

We have nowhere to go.

It's a government order. We can't help it.

You can look for some other job.

No. I can't help it.

-Please do consider us. -I can't help it.

-We beg you. -I cannot help you.

Hey!

Hey!

-Chaako. -What's the matter?

Left for Munaar?

-I need not discuss it with you. -Who else will you discuss it with?

You were an obstacle.

So, I cleared you out.

-I bought Thalayankaaval estate. -What?

Thalayankaaval estate where the Tamils work.

I have bought it. Do you know how?

By splitting it into two, three and four acres

among my family members.

Your union members are employed across most of my land.

Will you come there?

I forgot.

I didn't just buy the estate. I also bribed Comrade Sasi, your boss.

One can buy anything in this world with money.

I have the court orders.

What?

If something happens to the laborers,

-I'll kill you. -Scoot!

-Did I teach you the lesson I promised? -Get lost!

Pour some for me.

Have it.

They have destroyed our lives and brought us to the streets.

They have left us no shelter. Yet, you are boozing.

Why wait here? Let's go.

Tease me.

Come on, tease me now.

Who will tease me now?

Who else will address me as "Three cardamoms, 300 jasmines."

If you guys leave, who else will tease me?

Please tease me.

Tease me!

You! Come on, tease me.

Why are you quiet? Tease me!

Oothurasa!

Tease me, right now!

"Three cardamoms, 300 jasmines!"

At least you!

Please tease me.

Someone, please, tease me!

Please don't say that.

-Please, listen to us. -Tease me!

-"Three cardamoms, 300 jasmines." -Don't cry.

Who will dare tease me now?

Tease me.

Let's go.

Someone, please! Tease me.

"Three cardamoms, 300 jasmines."

Where are you going? Drop your luggage.

-Chaako! -They have asked us to leave the place.

I'll take care of you.

Bring me the sickle.

-They have left us unemployed. -Don't worry.

-We have nothing! -Drop your baggage.

Come with me.

-Come with me. -Please do something.

-Mr. Sasi. -Yes?

-Ask me for any favour. -Okay.

You need not hesitate.

You need not mention it. I know!

I want to tell you something.

What's that sound?

Chaako.

Listen to me, Chaako!

You betrayed the laborers!

Is that how communism is practiced?

Come on.

-Who is it? -Is Rangasamy in?

Yes.

He is sleeping.

What's it about?

Mr. Logu wants to meet him.

My dear.

Mr. Logu wants to meet you.

Hello, Rangasamy.

I don't know how to say this.

But I have no option left.

After you were jailed,

she was suffering all alone.

Whenever she asked for anything, I catered to the needs.

Now when I checked the credit, the capital and interest is huge.

Many years have passed. Listen, Rangu.

If it was someone else, I would have recovered the other way.

You people helped me

when I came here empty handed.

To reciprocate that favour,

I don't mind the losses.

Register your land under my name. That will be enough.

Hey.

If I check thoroughly,

this will not even match the credit.

It's okay. Sign it.

-Sign here. -Sign across the marked area.

Don't worry.

I have recommended you for a job.

There's a vacancy in the same land.

I know him.

Meet me after some days.

Sir, I know him. Please assign the job to him.

I pity him.

-Hey. -Yes, Sir?

Take this.

Get him some food and escort him.

Pass me the spanner.

Mr. Palchamy.

Hello.

What happened?

They asked me to join tomorrow.

They have given me the uniform as well.

-I'll have to pick the laborers. -Okay.

Wait near my house.

-I'll drop you to Thaevaaram. -Okay.

Rangasamy, the vehicle has come.

Come, Rangu. Get in.

-See you. -Bye.

-See you, Bro. -Bye.

Dedicated to the landless labor class

across the world.
