Mr. Paranjothi Pandian from Pallavaram...

Your first question -
Who shot Gandhi?

It's Godse, brother.

It is Godse!
- Okay, I'll answer it.

You know the answer. Tell them.
- Say it, son.

You tell him.

You read it in your little brother's
book only yesterday! Say 'Godse'.

Just say the goddamn answer, brother.
- Son, just answer the question.

Sir, there were two of them.

Two Sikhs - Satwant Singh and Beant Singh.

They were walking with Gandhi.

They fired 33 bullets.

30 of those bullets went through the chest.

Sir...

you meant Indira Gandhi, right?

Because I've got degrees
in M.A and M.Phil.

Even a First Grade kid knows
that Mahatma Gandhi was shot by Godse.

Sir, I'm just an uneducated
office clerk.

But my son wants to be a CBI officer.
And he's qualified too.

Growing up, kids always say they want to be
doctors, engineers or collectors.

But my son always wanted to be a CBI officer.

That's my dream.
And his ambition, too.

So--

All the best, guys.

Will you become a cop this attempt?
- Yes.

The bus is here.

Do well!
Come back with jobs.

Will you become a cop this time?
- I will.

He hasn't paid for the tea.
- Pay for the tea, brother!

Buzz off!

You've got degrees in M.A and M.Phil,
but you're applying for a mere clerical job.

You're overqualified for this job.

I'm currently handling parking tokens
at a cycle parking stand.

So this feels like a fancy pilot's job
in comparison. I'm fine with it.

Madam, I'm not
asking for a recommendation.

You're a part of the interview panel tomorrow.
I heard Mr. Uttaman is in the panel, too.

My son will surely
ace the interviews.

But please make sure he doesn't
mess things up for my son.

I'll handle it.
- Thank you very much!

I meant the umbrella.

You can apply for another job.
Why are you so hell-bent on the police job?

Your wife is ridiculing you!
Why can't you take another job?

Dude...

To achieve my true goal, patience is key.
I can't give it up because my wife says so.

You'll see when you get married.
- Okay, I'm off. Take care.

Brother...

I wanted to meet the boss about the job.
- Tell him Shanmugam sent you.

I've put in a word with the boss.
- Hope he won't ask for money...?

We'll figure it out.
- Please, I can't pay up...

Do you have the money?

I mean, how do WE benefit
by giving you this job?

So... you have the money?

I applied for this job,
because I don't have any money.

I need to have a job
to make money, right?.

But you want money
to give me that job?

Give me this job.
When I get my money for it...

I'll pay you that money,
and buy this job from you.

Will you give me money?

I mean,
will you give me this job?

Pandian, you have a big mouth.

Make it a little smaller,
you'll have a great future.

God bless you.

Pay attention to what I'm saying.

This is the recruitment for
the Sub-Inspector of Police, Tamil Nadu.

The total vacancies for the post
is 1,711.

But the number of applicants is 44,933.

The requirement is so small,
but the demand is so large.

I'll speak openly now.

Out of the 1,711 seats,
300 to 400 seats will be merit based.

For the remaining seats,
there's recommendation from top to bottom,

money, political influence--
many such factors.

I'm left with maybe
40 seats under my control.

Even now, they usually charge
between 85 to 100.

As Shanmugan has referred you,
we can seal the deal for 75.

What say?
- Sir...

This is my fourth attempt, sir.

I don't know if I'll be in the
top 300.

But I'll definitely be in the top 1,700.

If things were fair...

we would win.

We would win, sir.

If things were right,
the right people would win, sir.

The undeserving are up here!

And the deserving ones...

don't know what happens to them,
where they go.

They just disappear, sir.

You're trying to become a policeman, son?

A policeman?

We've seen enough of policemen.

Now I'm on a whole new track.

But my friend here...

he's living his life
hoping to become a policeman.

Sir, suppose I attend an interview,
and screw it up somehow...

and therefore don't get that job,
that's fine.

But if I do everything right,
and am fully qualified...

and still don't get the job?

Getting home, looking in the mirror,
with thoughts like...

"What am I?"

"What is my flaw?
What am I doing wrong?"

"Why?"

It gets really confusing, sir.

To avoid that confusion,
I say cough up 75!

Then go home and look in the mirror,
your face will look bright!

About the 75...

we're a little short, sir.

By how much?

Around 74?

Can you please adjust?

Even the 1,000 bucks we had,
on our way here...

Someone took it from me
to get me this meeting with you.

Don't waste my time.

Today is my birthday.

Sir, best wishes on your birthday!

Many more happy returns--

Now you've wished me.
Leave.

Sir, I'm sorry.

We'll pay up, sir.
- Sorry, sir.

He's not used to giving.

I'll give it.

Whatever.
Make it quick!

Happy birthday, sir.
That's my gift!

Catch those guys.

'My fingers are just snapping away!'

'Out in the road, they're snapping away;
Snap, snap, over and over again.'

'My fingers are just snapping away!'

'Out in the road, they're snapping away;
Snap, snap, over and over again.'

'Come on, come on - Where are you now?
What can you do to me? When will you?'

'Snap, snap, over and over again.'

'My fingers are just snapping away!'

'Out in the road, they're snapping away;
Snap, snap, over and over again.'

'Come on, come on - Where are you now?
What can you do to me? When will you?'

'Snap, snap, over and over again.'

'My fingers are just snapping away!'

'Out in the road, they're snapping away;
Snap, snap, over and over again.'

'My fingers are just snapping away!'

'Out in the road, they're snapping away;
Snap, snap, over and over again.'

'Let those who walked fly, those who cried smile;
The exploited get a push, the enslaved shine.'

'Everytime they hurdle you, jump higher;
Everytime they break you, start over.'

'Let your blood boil at injustice;
When they bury you, grow roots and rise.'

'Snap, snap, over and over again.'

'My fingers are just snapping away!'

'Look them in the eye, if they build a barrier;
Bring down to ground, if they're drunk on power.'

'Those who crush livelihoods, must be made to pay;
Make them think twice, to mess with us again.'

'All this time they hit us, return the favour;
These fat rodents fed on us, make them wither.'

'Let us be the masters of our own future;
It's our time - Kick open the bolted door.'

'Run and hide, leave no trace;
When I see you, I'll bruise your face.'

'Go away - this way or that;
Cross our path and you'll regret.'

'Snap, snap, over and over again.'

'My fingers are just snapping away!'

'Out in the road, they're snapping away;
Snap, snap, over and over again.'

What are we even dancing for?

To sing and dance this way,
we ought to have done something?

Exactly. What have we achieved
to sing and dance?

You found a job?
- No.

You?
- No.

Like he doesn't know already.

But that is not our fault.

It's this place.

It's the filth.

They've created all this filth...

and soaked in it...

people like him.

Whenever I see his kind...

'I feel the itch to thrash them away!'

'Oh, yes.
I feel the itch to thrash them away!'

'The itch to squash rich men's pomposity;
Those with authority, their sense of superiority.'

'Bring them down, show no mercy;
Hunt them down, spare nobody.'

'Gather the crowds to hear their cries;
Make them feel the pain they inflicted.'

'Oh, this itch to hunt!
And toss around...'

'I feel the itch to thrash them away!'

'The itch to squash rich men's pomposity;
Those with authority, their sense of superiority.'

'My fingers are just snapping away!'

Get going now.
- Let's wait for the results and see.

You could make him stand outside
and speak to you?

Why do you let him into the house?
What would people think?

I'm talking to you.
Why should another man enter our house?

A man must work, earn money
and feed the family.

How do we eat everyday?

I'm wearing a saree that's not torn.
Have you ever wondered why?

Did you buy it for me?
You didn't.

But you're so suspicious?

You still haven't become a policeman.

Let me know when
you're a policeman.

Then I'll tell you,
from whom I've borrowed money...

and how he's come to our house
asking for his money back.

You've landed here to get suspicious
and question me!

Only wants to be a policeman,
refuses to take up another job...

What?
- If I don't get this job...

I'll die, man.

Or she'll kill me--
- Don't be stupid.

We all have a purpose here
before we die.

Even if we go away from it...

it will find us somehow.

You are a police officer.
And I, a Central Board of Investigation officer.

Without bribing anyone,
you'll become a policeman and I, a CBI.

Don't overthink it.

You don't care if my shirt is crumpled,
as long as yours is neat?

It's hard to break a habit.

You look sharp.
Let's go.

Listen, son...

Since your childhood,
it's been your dream to become a CBI officer.

And I wish that you must become an officer
where your father worked as a peon.

There's a man in my office called Uttaman--
he's such a wretch.

This is the CBI.

We're here to raid your house.
Please co-operate.

Sir, hold on. We'll talk it out.
- Don't disturb us.

Just wait for 2 minutes.

Wait in there for 5 minutes.
Porchelvan, close the door.

I've got nothing
to hide from you.

There is money everywhere in this house.
Let's strike a deal later.

Let's do the deal here and now!
- Okay, sir.

There is a million rupees in this.
Please take this and...

Porchelvan!

Drop these bags
at my house.

Use the backdoor and take my car.
No one should spot you.

What?

What's that look?
Like you'd rat me out?

Don't you dare rat me.
Take this home carefully.

There's a cut for you, too!

I returned home and felt so disturbed.
I couldn't fall asleep.

I wrote an anonymous letter.

But another wretched man
showed it to this wretched man.

Since that day,
he's been really angry with me.

He'll surely take it out on you.
You need to handle this situation...

and somehow become an officer
at my own office.

Surely, dad.

It will all be okay.

Nachinarkiniyan?

It is 'Nachinaar-ku-iniyan'. It means
"A good man to good men."

Please take your seat.
- Thank you, sir.

Sit down.

Did you pick this job
as it is your father's wish?

It is said that ever morsel of rice we eat
has our name written on it.

Similarly, in every chair...

I believe that the name of the person
born for it, is written.

The chair I'm meant for...

is somewhere in this office.

That's my belief,
and my father's.

There are many departments
in the CBI.

Which of these do you prefer?

Economic offences.

Why?

Only corpses are meant to be buried.

Not cash.

If we dig up all that money,
we can pluck out most problems by the root.

What?
You'll pluck it out?

Hello, sir.
- Morning, sir!

Heard you say you'd pluck something.

I asked you,
what will you pluck?

By myself...

I can't pluck anything.

But together, we can pluck something
for sure.

Sure, let's pluck.

You continue...

Where are his physical test papers?

What's your height?

Stand up, let's see.

Stand up straight.

Stand upright!

Sir, you're okay with that?

He's qualified, sir.

Sit.

Height is very important.
Now let's start the interview?

After you join the duty, suppose
your superior does something wrong.

Let's say he takes a bribe.

And you've witnessed it.

He asks you not to rat him out.

Begs you, even.

To get him caught...

would you write an anonymous letter?

I wouldn't write an anonymous letter.

Then you'll survive.

I wouldn't write an anonymous letter.

I'd include
my name and address.

Maybe even paste
my passport size photograph.

I'd write about that officer openly...

And not just suspension.

I'll do my best to get the guy dismissed.

Sorry, sir.

I'll do my best to
get the 'officer' screwed.

If you were asked to raid the house
of a politician, would you dare to?

Definitely, sir.

1987 - Karaikudi

Hello.
- Hello, I'm calling from the CBI.

Sir!

Who is the Station Inspector?
- He is on leave today, sir.

I'm the Sub-Inspector.
I'm in-charge today.

Fine. What did you say your name was?
- Vetrivel, sir.

Vetrivel, listen to me carefully.

We're conducting a raid today.

You, another S.I or two constables-
importantly, a lady constable.

Come to the Gandhi Statue immediately.
We'll be going as a team.

Understood, sir.
- Okay? Jai Hind!

Madam, it's time.

I think you're nervous.

Shall I lead?

Are you afraid
because it's the Minister's house?

They're the ones who should be afraid.
Not us.

We can't do this job
when we carry fear in our hearts.

Informed the station?

Yes, madam.
The Inspector wasn't there, just the S.I.

Name?
- Vetrivel.

Is the vehicle ready?
- Yes, ma'am.

And our team?
- They're ready.

K.P!

Yes, I'm ready.

Ondiveeran!

Yes, I'm here.

Everybody ready?
- Yes, sir.

Shall we, ma'am?
- Let's go.

We're raiding a VIP's house.
You must stay with us the whole day.

Okay, sir! May I know whose house
we're going to raid?

Just follow your orders.
- Yes, ma'am.

The warrant.

Your name?
- Mangayarkarasi, sir.

Adjust your cap.
This is elementary...

Okay, let's not waste time.
Let's go.

Yes, sir!

Sir, are you always in these clothes?

Hey, Ram!

Gandhi, Nehru, Bose and I.
We're all like this.

Bose?

Netaji to you, Bose to us.

'Cause we were very close.

You all belong to the same age group?

No, no, no.
We're not the same age group.

He was my father's age,
and we just--

can we just finish the shoot?

Smile, please.

Hold them here, Vetrivel.

You can't go out.
- Stay quiet.

Another interview?
Ask them to come back later.

Jhansi Rani.
- Uttaman.

CBI Special Wing.

I said, come back later.

We've come to search your house.
Kindly co-operate.

Corporation?

KP sir, you may begin.
One officer upstairs.

Cut off the telephone lines.
- How dare you search this house?

They're really CBI!
- You better co-operate.

Or I won't treat you like a Minister.

Go ahead.

My experiments with truth!

Hello?

Nobody can leave
during an on-going raid.

Stay right here.

I have nothing to do with them, sir.
I'm just a reporter.

Do I have to repeat myself?

Sit quietly.
Just go.

I'm going to rent out
this Petromax lamp.

Answer my question, though.
How does a Petromax lamp work?

Listen up, you dud,
this is called a cup.

The bright light comes from here.
- How could this shine?

You broke it again?

Who is it?
Why are the police here?

Gandhi Daddy, what's going on?
- Come closer, I'll tell you.

Bless your tongue.

They're hitting.
- They hit you?

Everything in this house
is from my hard-earned money.

The Gods I pray to
shall make you pay.

"The Gods I pray to".

Where is the prayer room?
- Gandhi Daddy.

Come on, Gandhi Daddy.
- Hold on.

Look, these are untainted hands.

I've not saved much.
You don't realise it's a Minister's residence.

Look, those who fear the truth,
fear nothing else.

I'm true to my heart...

and just in my actions.

We don't care about anything else.

No, you can't go inside.
- Out of our way.

Let them see
whom we worship as Gods.

This is my fortune.
These are our Gods.

I don't lie.

Uttaman, there is a locker here.
- Madam, what is your problem?

There is nothing in there.
Just a few diamonds and some gold.

Let us perform our duty, sir.
Vetrivel, escort him outside.

Mr. Policeman, please save me!
- Where is the key?

Give them the keys.
Let the authorities take everything.

Someone has jinxed my life.
There's nothing in there.

I open it only once every year.
That's my whole life!

Please listen!

Oh no! I had carefully preserved
the slippers he wore at the Salt March.

Sir, please don't drop it.

Mahatma, these were the slippers
you wore.

Don't touch those letters.

The letters Gandhi wrote to Nehru,
and Nehru wrote to my dad.

No one but my mom
has touched those.

Departed souls, please come to my rescue!

O noble Shastri.
Kumaran, the one who held the flag!

They're here to take my flag down!
Won't you protect me?

I think I just knocked over the stash!

Vetrivel, escort the Minister out.
- Yes, sir.

Please come with me.

Kumaran, I shouldn't have hit you.
Please forgive me.

I hang your photos on the wall,
and I get the hangman's noose?

Gandhi Daddy!
Please, come here.

They're taking everything.

The Netaji photo
beside Nehru's photo...

They've taken all the jewels
stashed in the Kamarajar cover behind that.

Why do you keep saying 'Gandhi Daddy'?

Muthukumar, clear everything quickly.
- Yes, madam.

All my good fortune is leaving me!

What's there?
- I was just...

Where did I ask you to sit?

How long can I just sit there?

I'll tell you.
Go.

Bossing me around...

Sir! Sir!
- Let's go out, mom.

Tell me where everything else is stashed,
the punishment would be light.

If we find it ourselves,
that would be it!

You've taken it all!

I swear on my Grandpa's soul,
that was all.

Grandpa?

Look for his Grandpa's photo.

Sir, it's up here.

Open all the rooms.
- Break it open.

Gandhi Daddy! I think they're working
it out based on what you say.

It came from my mouth?

God, you're right!

There's a whole room in there.

Looks like he'll even
ask me for a bludgeon!

Madam,
please step aside.

They've got money
stashed in toilet buckets!

Just don't open your mouth.

Get up.

Sir, but you--
- Move and sit there.

Why is he taking centre stage?

I might even choke myself,
but I'm not breathing a word.

Look at that!

Trying to pierce me with your gaze?
But I'm not even going to look at you!

I'm not looking at you.

Looks like he'd search my throat
even if I swallow spit.

Why is she looking at me that way?
Am I so handsome?

I can't keep up!

What are you looking at?
Take the rickety old car and leave!

And please take him with you!

Looking in there? Just old vessels.
Take it all with you.

Just spare me.

He's a young man, so he's taking a look.
What's wrong with you?

I think the lady is tired.

My Silent Protest
has succeeded!

Phew!

Wipe those tears!
It's over.

Gandhi, my son!

Oh Lord! The ones above
us have saved us.

Madam, look up there.

Come on! I'm not even
allowed to raise my hands?

Get me that bludgeon!

Sir, this is my grandpa's house.

He might have left something behind.

Naming you 'Gandhi'
is a disgrace in itself...

Gandhi Daddy at that?

My dad and Gandhi...

Sir, please.
That's enough.

Ten necklaces...
Looks like he's a big cheat!

Muthukumar, spread them
so I can take some photos.

Okay, sir.

Sign here.

My hard earned money.
- Just sign!

Step aside, please?

Giving it all to the Government,
you're not getting anything.

Let's reach an understanding.

She's thinking!

They could have just told me earlier.

Fine! How much?

Bless your tongue!
You could have asked me that sooner.

You scared me
out of my wits!

How about two?

Can you?
- Let's split everything equally.

What are you thinking?
- I'm not used to raising my arm...

Sir...
- Madam?

I'll give it to him, then.

She said 'two'.
- Sure.

Gandhi Daddy!

Did he just slap the Minister?

We should become like them.

Impossible.

Such bravery is...

possible, sir!

Definitely possible.

Sign.

Two of this, too?

Thank God I didn't say three.

Thank you.

Tell all your friends who commit crime
knowing they will never do time...

that Jhansi Rani's honest team
is coming just to get them.

Let's go.

Mr. Vetrivel,
we need to arrest them.

Wait here till the higher officials arrive.
- Yes, madam.

Madam...

This is my first day at work.

Looking at the work you just did...

You're my big inspiration.

If we're true to our heart
and just in our actions...

we have nothing to fear.

Always remember that.
- Yes, madam.

Thank you, Vetrivel.
- Thank you, sir.

'Those who fear the truth
needn't fear anything else.'

'If you're honest in your work
and just in your actions...'

is that enough, sister?

My hands and legs were shaking, you know.

I was so nervous,
I slapped that old man twice.

What was with that "Gandhi Daddy"?

Every time she called him that,
I wanted to smack his face.

Come on!

Don't shout.
I'm nervous already.

You trust me enough
to do everything I say?

Will I get a salary?

Brother, you can be a
CBI officer.

CP, copy, whatever.
Will I get a salary?

Will I get conveyance fees?

Ondiveeran sir, you'll do the job
of a CBI officer?

In my 57 years, no one has given me a job!
But now you're offering me one.

Thank you.

Dude!

No one's even joked about hiring me
or paying me a salary.

Even if you don't give me a job,
pay me a salary or I refuse to let go.

I'll give you a job and pay you a salary.
Get up, now!

Get up.
- I'm so happy.

From tomorrow,
we're no longer good people.

At least to the bad people.

What can we do?

Only when good people turn bad
will bad people turn good.

What do you say?
Let's turn bad?

Who are we?
- CBI Officers.

Can't hear you!

CBI Officers!

We're going to sneakily sneak away
all the money those sneaks have sneaked!

Understand?
- Totally.

Yeah? Can you repeat that?
- Can you repeat that?

Listen up. This money belongs
to bad people.

So you needn't feel guilty.

But this is a Central Minister's house...

someone needs to go
scout the place first.

Maybe I could wear a woman's disguise
and scout the place?

You wouldn't need a disguise for that.

There's this girl I know.

Shall I ask her to come?
- Is she good looking?

Not as good looking as I am...

Still, I'll ask her to come.

Oh, no!
Where is that girl?

We left her behind?

Where is that girl?

Sir?
- Yes?

May I leave, sir?

Who are you?
Why are you waiting here?

Sir...?

None of you even noticed me?

Who is this girl?
When did you get here, Miss?

What's your connection
to the duplicate gang?

A duplicate gang?

I'll write that down.
- Write what down?

That's tomorrow's headlines.
"The Duplicate Gang".

That's a superb scoop.

You're a reporter?
- Stand together, I'll click a picture.

You're actually posing for her picture?
- Miss, please wait.

Just hold on, Miss.

If she's caught, we're all caught.
What do we do now?

I have a feeling...

she'll be out in 3 minutes.

How?

At the same time...

I don't want her to come.

Why would you say such a thing?

If she comes out...

I feel I'll develop
these nuisance feelings...

something wretched...

like fall in love with her?

She has these extra brains
and guts...

I'm worried that I'll fall for her.

I don't know...

Brother!

To succeed in life,
one must stay away from love, right?

But it's here.

I said, I must stay away.
- I said, the cart is here.

Your Petromax lamp is here.

Don't be shy.

Turn and look at her, Iniyan.
Here comes your sweetheart.

Where is she?

She isn't in there.

There is a God.
It's no problem.

I'll handle it.
Listen to me.

Follow your officer's car.

Hop on, quick.

What are you
yapping about out there?

It's getting late.
We're done with the job, let's get going.

And you, officer...
you're good.

Ordering me around to sit here
and sit there...

None of you
have changed your disguise?

Let's go, quick.
You're so irresponsible.

We should get going.
Hop on!

'She set free a pretty butterfly;
And it's soaring towards the sky!'

'To spoil away, all by myself -
Well, that doesn't seem fair.'

'Every now and then you just vanish;
That's no way to be.'

'Flaming up a little firecracker;
This girl has planted it in my core.'

'She set free a pretty butterfly;
And it's soaring towards the sky!'

'Ensnaring a hard-shelled guy like me;
She polished my rusty heart tidy.'

'This girl barged into my heart;
She's making herself at home.'

'Girl, just keep walking straight ahead;
Don't you turn around!'

'Hey Beautiful, I know that look is just a guise;
Don't you strike me with your eyes.'

'Girl, just keep walking straight ahead;
Don't you turn around!'

'Hey, Beautiful...
Don't strike me with those eyes!'

'To spoil away, all by myself -
Well, that doesn't seem fair.'

'Every now and then you just vanish;
That's no way to be.'

'Nearly swooning, I'm destroyed;
And I'm somewhat dazed.'

'Watching her killer stance, her radiance;
My blubbering is endless.'

'I'm smiling for no reason at all!'

'Smiling for no reason, floating on cloud nine;
I'm losing track of time.'

'Can't seem to walk straight, I'm bewitched;
But I keep my feelings veiled.'

'Girl, just keep walking straight ahead;
Don't you turn around!'

'Hey Beautiful, I know that look is just a guise;
Don't you strike me with your eyes.'

'Girl, just keep walking straight ahead;
Don't you turn around!'

'Beautiful...
Don't strike me with those eyes!'

'To spoil away, all by myself -
Well, that doesn't seem fair.'

'Every now and then you just vanish;
That's no way to be.'

'Flaming up a little firecracker;
This girl has planted it in my core.'

'She set free a pretty butterfly;
And it's soaring towards the sky!'

'Ensnaring a hard-shelled guy like me;
She polished my rusty heart tidy.'

'This girl barged into my heart;
She's making herself at home.'

'Girl, just keep walking straight ahead;
Don't you turn around!'

'Hey Beautiful, I know that look is just a guise;
Don't you strike me with your eyes.'

'Girl, just keep walking straight ahead;
Don't you turn around!'

'Hey, Beautiful...
Don't strike me with those eyes!'

I'll take that, brother.
Hello?

Hello? Iniyan?
- Tell me, Muthu.

There's no news about us
in any of the newspapers.

Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam,
Oriya, Bengali.

No news anywhere.

No one can find us.

No problem whatsoever.

Watch over the goods carefully.

Take it carefully
to her daughter's wedding.

Okay!

Must be him...

No talking.
Study!

Azhagu Meena!
- What is it? Are you okay?

Get me a coffee.
- The phone is ringing.

Serve the master coffee.

Quick!

Wake up!
How long will you sleep?

There's a wedding
and you're asleep?

Hello?
- Sister!

Iniyan, Are you well?
- I am.

Is there anything on the news?

No. There's nothing.

There's no problem.
You focus on the wedding.

I'll be there.
- That's a relief.

Good morning, sir.
- Good morning.

Hello, sir!

Uttaman, did you conduct
a raid without my knowledge?

A raid?
- Yes...

At Minister Kutthalingam's house.
- Which house?

At Karaikudi.
The raid has happened in your name.

In my name?

Look at this, sir.

They've only left behind the 10 Rupee bundles.
May they burn in hell!

Just file a complaint, sir.
We'll take action.

By the time I file a complaint,
and you take action against him...

my party will take action
against me.

Let the money go.
I'll earn it back. But my reputation...

Oh, no.
You deal with this quietly, please.

Are you sure you're original?

Looks like losing money
has made you wiser.

Oh, let that go.
But he put on such a show...

I blame these people.

He could have made
Kamal Hassan nervous.

Sir, all his warrant papers were in order.

We didn't suspect any...

anything.
Sorry, sir.

Do you know what raid warrants look like?
Have you ever seen one before?

CBI doesn't have the right to seize
gold and jewellery.

Only the Income Tax Department
has that right.

You don't know squat.

But you get in through
recommendation or bribery.

Anyway...

You've seen him.
Pack up your bags.

Till we catch him, you are mine.

Understand, Mr. Vetrivel?

Yes, sir.

'Vetrivel' doesn't suit you.
What can we do?

Till this case is over,
let's give you another name?

Knuckle-Head.

Isn't that perfect?
Okay?

Narayana, you're ditching me in the last
minute. What will I do now?

You already promised me, Naaru baby!

I practiced for two hours
but still couldn't get it.

Then why are you being
such a nuisance, Madhu?

Look.

We can only do the things
that come naturally to us.

With my body language,
I can't do all that. Let me go.

Let's go, brother.
- Don't do that, brother.

Think about me!

If you want,
I'll give you two extra bananas.

You'll give me bananas?

Do I look like a monkey
sitting on a temple compound?

Just for this, I hate you.

Let's go, brother.
Step on the pedal!

What a surprise!
- What brings you here?

I came to pray.
- Good for you, go pray.

Do this for me, man.
I ask you this near the house of Lord.

I won't do this for the Lord or anyone.

Do you need help?

If yes, tell me.
I'll do it.

That's something best suited
for this face structure.

What's he looking at?

Face structure?

I see no structure here.

You're making fun of my face?

No, I'm making fun at your face!

Come on, now. Don't have to
beg random men, I'll help you!

Okay, we're even then.
Goodbye.

I'm here for you.
Why are you asking him?

What's he got that I don't?

Enough of praying.
Sit down.

You just need to sit here.
- I only need to sit?

Is that all?
- Don't move your limbs.

Just watch me rock it now!
- Yes, hold onto this.

She's turned up,
just as promised.

In this world marrying a physically challenged
mute person is something great!

I'm so proud of you, Madhu.

His mouth looks normal.

As you're seeing him straight,
you can't see it.

If you look at it from the side,
you'll see his mouth is crooked.

It looks that way to me.

His hands look alright to me.
- Well...

It looks like that from there.

Come here, you'll see
they're deformed.

Oh yes. I'm sorry
I said that.

What's your name?

My foot...

He's cursing in a holy place!

That...
what are you saying?

Ah, I get it.

He was trying to say 'Mayilvaganan'.

I get it, now!

You're so innocent.

Take it.
Give it to him.

Take it.
It's a gift for our wedding!

Thank you so much! Bless you.
- Live long and prosper.

We'll take leave.
- Okay.

Bye!

Hold up!
I watched that little show.

You twisted your arms,
twisted your legs...

I know all about this girl, boss!

Get lost.
- Where to, now? The Mariamman temple?

You're such a liar!
A fraud.

Let me look at that face!

God, please protect
good people like me.

So when you boys do it,
it's Robin Hood stuff.

But when girls do it,
it's fraud?

You're doing big jobs in your league.

And I'm just doing smaller jobs
within my league.

But so many lies!

Sir, there's a kernel of truth
in all my lies.

I took money at the temple
for my wedding, right?

It's true that it is for a wedding,
only the part about our wedding was a lie.

And the part about being paralysed
and unable to speak?

There's some truth to that, too.
Look over there.

That's my older sister.

What? You're feeling bad?

Why bother, sir?

The one thing in this world
that people do for free, is to feel bad.

It's not worth a penny, is it?

You're spot on.

She supports everyone?
- She does.

But she is not our family.

Nor is she that girl's sister.

They returned together from school
7 - 8 years back...

And she just bonded.

We didn't mind either.
She calls us mother, aunty or uncle...

But she works in a big company
and makes a lot of money.

She even buys us clothes sometimes.
We don't mind.

Sometimes, she gives us money
to spend, too!

But she is a good girl.

Hello, aunty.
Has your husband left to work?

Good morning, sir.

Good morning, sir.

Listen up, everybody.

Come forward, people.
The officer has something to say.

That's enough, Mr. SI.

In case any police station receives
a call about CBI or Income Tax raid...

or any suspicious phone call, they must
call the headquarters immediately.

This information must reach every police station
in Tamil Nadu - City, Mofussil, Rural. Everywhere.

Understood?
- Sir!

Wherever he steps out for a raid
in Tamil Nadu...

we'll bury him right there.

Everything is written in
Urdu and Telugu out here!

It's a good thing you know Telugu.

Telugu?
I don't speak Telugu.

But I've seen you speak Telugu
so fluently.

The first time I saw you...
- [Telugu] 'I will tell you'.

That's Telugu for
'I will tell you.'

Apart from that,
I don't speak any Telugu.

You don't speak Telugu
apart from 'I will tell you'?

Jhansi--!

[Telugu] Who are you?
- [Telugu] I will tell you.

[Telugu] I will tell you!

Tell me.
- No!

[Telugu] I will tell you, sir!
- Yes, tell me.

[Telugu] No, I will tell you.

[Telugu] Let the lady speak!

[Telugu] I will tell you, sir!
- [Telugu] I will tell you, sir!

[Telugu] I will tell you, sir!

[Telugu] Somebody tell me something!

Come on, show me the papers.

Give the papers.

[Telugu] She's got it in there!

Give me the papers.
- Is this Ahmadullah Traders?

Second floor? That's the right address?
- Give me the papers.

401, Ahmadullah Traders, Second Floor
- Okay, give me the papers.

Madam?

Excuse me, give me the paper once?
I'll just touch it and give it to you.

We've interrupted their raid,
and caused disturbance.

[Telugu] I don't understand
what you're saying. Who are you?

You see...

[Telugu] Hold it.
I will tell you.

[Telugu] You are CBI Officers.
We are Income Tax Officers.

[Telugu] You've come for a raid,
and so have we.

[Telugu] We came to the wrong
floor by mistake.

[Telugu] You perform your duty,
and let us perform ours.

Anyhow, sorry for the inconvenience.

Let's go.
Come on, let's go.

Quick, let's go.

Sorry, we'll leave now.

You lead us.
I'll follow you.

Go on.

What do we do now?
- I'll tell you.

Rahmadullah Traders?

[Telugu] Rahmadullah Traders.
That big shop over there.

[Telugu] That really big shop.
[Telugu] - Really big, huh?

[Hindi] What do you want?
- Petromax Lamp!

[Hindi] This Petromax lamp is really good.
- All for me!

I don't want this.
I want that one there!

You get hung up on
Petromax lamp everywhere!

Get inside!

Uttaman, Income Tax Department.

Jhansi Rani, CBI -- crap!
Income Tax Department.

Ondi, go for it.

We're here on an
Income Tax raid.

Please co-operate.

[Hindi] Why are you here?
What do you want?

[Hindi] What are you looking for?

Why is everyone looking at me?

I just generally came forward.
I don't speak Hindi or anything.

[Hindi] They don't even know our language!
They're not saying anything.

Search!
Search everywhere.

We can't speak a different language
in every floor. Search every corner.

Every table. Every locker.
Every cupboard.

Open everything!

[Broken Hindi] Nothing down, nothing up.

[Broken Hindi] Go down, both of you.

[Broken Hindi] Get up and go down!

Is it in dollars or rupees down there?

[Broken Hindi] Nothing.

Look inside.

Found any stones or diamonds, madam?

No...

I didn't even find a brick!

[Hindi] They're wrecking our place!

[Hindi] You didn't find anything, right?
I told you!

Sit, sit, sit.

Get up.
- [Hindi] I told you!

Get up from the bed.
[Broken Hindi] Go that way!

[Hindi] Why are you tearing
our beds?

[Hindi] You've turned everything upside down.

Wrong information.

What's that? What did he give you?
- [Telugu] Nothing, sir.

Income Tax Officer.
- [Telugu] It's nothing, sir.

[Telugu] You're an IT officer,
so what?

[Telugu] I have nothing
to do with that shop.

You're obstructing an Income Tax Officer
from performing his duty!

[Telugu] I said, it's nothing.

How do I say, "I'll kill you"?

[Telugu] I'll kill you!

I watch a lot of NTR movies.

[Telugu] I'll kill you!

"Just do as I say".
- NTR didn't teach me that...

[Telugu] Do as I say.

[Telugu] Do as I say.

Who are you messing with?
- [Telugu] Who are you messing with?

Seize everything.

Don't leave any box behind.

We're Income Tax Officers, man.

Sign this.

Get a statement from
each and every one of them.

Muthukumar...

It's a good think they don't speak Tamil.
Or they would have whopped us.

Let's just get out of here.

What are you thinking?
You scare me!

Welcome home!

This is the house?
- Yes.

You bought it back?

Yes, I bought it.

This is Vannamathi.
- Hello!

This is Vaanmathi.

This is Vattamathi.
And this is Niraimathi.

Arivumathi, Anbumathi.

Uh... what did I name her?
Yes, Azhagumathi!

Valarmathi is upstairs
taking a shower.

One more?

I got married when I was 15...

back when we had no TV or electricity!

God, you're making me blush!

Give me one?
- You ate so many bananas.

Just give me one?
- Careful, kids!

No bananas for him.

Keep it away from him.
- Have this lime-powder instead!

So, are you happy now?

Yeah, right!

One down now.

But seven more to go!

We'll have a
bigger wedding for them.

Sure!

I heard some random
people come by...

and you're real
generous with them.

But we won't ask you about that.
Forget it.

But for people who do
things like this, there has to be a story?

That's called a flashback.
- Yes, that.

Something tragic must have
happened in his family.

If you have something to say,
we could share, too.

Only if you want to...
otherwise no tension.

Is this going to take long?

I'm feeling sleepy.
- Shut up.

Tell us, son.

If you were asked to raid the house
of a politician, would you dare to?

Definitely, sir.

And?

Your father will handle
all the mess it creates?

Without proper order and permission
from higher officials, you can't pluck squat.

Understand?
- Sorry, sir.

Tell me some proverb you know.

Can't think of anything
right now, sir.

I can think of something.
I'll tell you?

'Test the waters before taking a plunge.'

You don't get it?

Ask your father, and he'll tell you.

Then you'll get it...
- I get it, sir.

Okay, interview is over.
You may leave now.

You may leave.

Thanks.

Sir...

I just remembered a proverb.

I'll tell you?

'When an oppressor beats the oppressed'...

'whether or not God beats the oppressor'...

'someone will come by
and beat the crap out of him.'

We'll see when that happens.
Get going.

You spoke like a hero in there
but now you look so pitiable.

Look, getting you a job in this office
is not a big deal.

You know what would happen?

Your father will serve tea
and coffee.

And you will ask to sit next to me
and drink that tea and coffee.

Your father will open the car door for me.

And you will ask to sit next to me
in that same car.

Some people are okay with all that.

But me... I'm not that magnanimous.

But I'm not a bad guy.

You have a job in this office for sure.

If your father drops dead
while still in service...

the peon job is all yours!

You can serve tea and coffee.
You can open car doors.

You can do anything in this office.

Go home and drop these hints
to your father, he'll understand.

Or get a bulk amount ready.

'No matter how high it flies...'

'A sparrow is a sparrow'...

'and a hawk is a hawk.'

Nice proverb, eh?

Plan your move now.
Go.

Son...

Why so late today?

I was hanging out the boys...
- Fine!

How did the interview go?
Were the questions easy or tough?

It was easy.

Everyone at the office respects your dad.
They must have treated you well?

Madam received me warmly.
- That's nice.

But this Uttaman...

I knew it.

What did he do?

He troubled you hoping to
avenge me?

No such thing.
He's a good guy.

He only asked me one question.
And I gave the correct answer.

You'll get the job?
- Yes, I will.

Good!

Let's eat?

You say you'll get the job,
but your face looks dull.

Why? It's alright.

Now?

You'll surely get the job?
- I will, dad.

A lot of people have applied.
There's competition.

We'll see when the results come.

You will definitely get the job?

Don't keep asking me that!
You'll feed me only if I get the job?

I said I'm hungry.
Set the plate, I'll come and eat.

Okay, don't get mad.

Iniyan...

'You're just a lowly clerk's son.
Why do you aspire to be an officer?'

No one asked you that?

Stop blabbering, dad.

Well...

'If your father dies
while still in service...'

'that job is yours.'

'Ask your father to die.'

No one told you that?

'Where do we go now?
Who takes the blame?'

'Barely scraping through this life,
Defeat by defeat, little by little, we die.'

I'll go wash my hands.

'Oh, this is a blood-sucking ghost,
that's hunts us day and night.

'It won't rest, won't let us rest;
Till we're done and dead.'

Dad, let's eat.

Dad?

Dad?

Dad?

Dad? Dad?

Can you hear me, dad?

Why won't you respond?
Open the door!

Dad, open the door.
I said, open the door!

What are you doing in there?
Open the door, dad!

Open the door, dad.
Open the door!

What were you doing?
Why didn't you open the door?

Can't a guy wash his face
and go to the toilet in peace?

I kept knocking,
you could have said something?

We were talking and you locked the door.
What was I supposed to think?

If you don't get the job,
why would I die?

Go wash your face.
Let's eat.

"If I don't get this job,
I will die, man."

Buddy, my wife...

she ran away.

That day... the man I fought over?
She eloped with him.

I told her I didn't get the job.

How will we get jobs?

We don't have money.

Everyone must have found out.

So humiliating.

Let that go.

You got the job?

You're still here?

Thought you left me, too.

Now I can't even step out
of my house, can I?

Maybe we should have paid him
the 75 grand he asked for?

Without money, we can't get jobs...

They're screwing us over.

Thieving mongrels.

'Birth seems like a terrible thing;
That's the way of the world.'

'In this world void of goodness;
We can't hope for benevolence.'

'Every single day we suffer;
And we drown in this sewer.'

'Is there no value for life?
What good can come from crying?'

'We dream everyday, you and I;
But now it's burnt to ashes.'

'Won't it suffice to have the skills?
Won't good things ever come our way?'

I'd just gone to the temple...
what has he done?

The pain one feels
at the death of a father...

I felt that pain
when he lost his life.

Committing suicide is wrong.

But if one can't afford education...

or get a job in spite of being qualified...

that doesn't count as suicide.

That's murder.

He was my friend.

And they murdered him.

How could I keep quiet?

You're letting someone
toy with our department?

Mr. Uttaman, what are you doing?

What can I do, sir?
No one has filed a complaint.

We've literally begged at every raid place.
Not one complaint, or any evidence.

Sir, we should bring Mr. Kurunjivendhan
on board for this case.

He'll find a way.

If you put in a request,
he'll come immediately.

Okay, I'll talk to him.

Sir, who is this Kurunjivendhan?

Did you just say that?

Please forgive him, sir.
He's just a kid.

The girl he raped
was only 15 years old.

He's my only son.
I can't believe you're my son!

I raised him with the right values.

I've arranged for a proxy accused.
- Oh yeah?

That boy is ready to surrender.

Please, sir. My reputation is at stake!
I'll lose everything.

Sir, you shouldn't lose composure!

Look, the pistol has fallen
off your holster.

If I were in your position...

Shut up!

Good Lord!

What have you done, sir?

You shot your own son dead
when you realised he was guilty!

Never seen a more honest policeman...
I've got goosebumps!

Don't know what to say...

Come on, everyone. Salute!
- Yes, sir.

He is an inspiration to all of us.

Honour this man.
Salute.

Your reputation will remain untainted.
Don't worry, go home.

So you didn't shoot your son?
But you got a promotion for that!

Shut it!
That's not the point.

Don't breathe a word about this
to anyone.

Mr. Uttaman...

There's nothing about these fake raids
in the newspapers. Why?

No one has filed a complaint.
Plus, they don't have any evidence.

Excuse me, sir.
If this is reported by newspapers...

it will be embarrassing to our department.
- Knuckle-Head! Quiet.

Why do you stop him?

Let them mock us.
But this has to be in the news, okay?

Every newspaper must
report this tomorrow.

That will scare them a little.

'A Fake Income Tax Raid'

Son?
- Yes, Dad?

You know about the raids
conducted by my office...

Now a fake group
has gone on a raid exactly like that.

Here, read it.

Even my department is too scared
to touch these people.

A daring group has done this.
But...

But?

But what?

In the movie that released
yesterday, know what my Hero said?

What has he said?

He said, 'To do good for a few people,
nothing you do is bad.'

Oh, so this is not bad?

Dad, this is not bad at all.

This is good.

Yeah?

You've only tracked
one woman down?

This is her! I'd never forget this face.
We can use her and get to--

Knuckle-Head!

Suresh?
- Sir.

I need her address and phone number.

Sir, one minute!
- Tell me.

We have the phone number
of a lady from the group.

We'll have the address in a few hours.
If we go immediately, we can arrest her.

Very good.

Excuse me, sir.
- Shut up, Knuckle-Head.

Wait, let's hear him out.
- Sir, there are 5 members in that group.

If we arrest the lady,
there's a good chance others will escape.

Moreover, we don't have a complaint
or evidence to arrest them, either.

Besides, to arrest a lady,
we need a proper warrant.

They've made valid points.
Give me that?

Don't you know what to do?

We'll put one in the mouth?

Exactly.

Suresh?
- Yes, sir.

Put one in the mouth.

You understood what he said?

Do it properly.
Good night.

... Sir?

Mangayarkarsi.
Give us a moment.

Sir, what does
'Put one in the mouth' mean?

What could that mean...?
- Forget it. Carry on.

You'd complained about hearing sounds
on the phone. I've come to check.

You expect to get a salad from your phone,
and not sound?

We didn't place any complaint.

But we did receive a complaint, madam.
Can I take a look?

Okay, go ahead.

You take him.

Can I have some water?
- I'll just get it.

Hello? Can you hear me clearly?

It's all okay.
- It was okay all along.

No, ma'am.
I just fixed it.

Okay.
- Here.

Thanks.

Sir, a call from that number.
- Record it.

Sir, they're caught!
- Okay!

Yes?
- Fire Candy!

Write it on my dad's tab.
- Okay! Off you go.

Sir, someone from your group...
I think the lady...

They've traced and started tapping
her phone number.

Whatever happens, don't attend her call.
Please, take care brother.

Maybe they got scared
reading the news?

Sir!
- What? Again?

Wait.

I think we're wasting our time.

She is getting an incoming call
from another number.

Record it.

Hello?

Hello?
- Why aren't you answering my call?

This candy!

What did you say?
- It's all over the papers.

Will we get caught?

We'll handle it.
Don't worry.

What's our next step?

I'm bored of these small jobs.

Let's do something big?

Something big?

Like the Governor's house.
Or the Chief Minister's.

What?
- Or, maybe...

there are these crocodiles in the CBI
and Income Tax departments, too...

Let's trap a big one?

Trap a crocodile? Why?

No one with a job
is really doing their job.

And someone who wants to do a good job,
cannot find a job.

Until these stale buns catch us...

we can do anything we want,
anywhere we want.

Because no one is in a position
to file a complaint...

nor do they have any evidence,
so they can't catch us.

What are you saying?
Why should they catch us?

They didn't let us in
because they said we weren't qualified!

So, those who are in the system
are good at their jobs?

Let them track us down.
Let them catch us.

If someone tries to wipe out our identity,
to wipe them out--

Hello?
- Can you hear me?

To wipe them out, we
shall rise against them as a team.

I can't hear anything.
- Then we'll see...

Hello?

Hold it, brother.

Let's wait and see if that good-for-nothing team
can win against our spontaneously formed team.

Hello?

Are you at a concert?

What's all that noise?

Hello?

Can you hear anything I'm saying?

Dad?

Tell me, son.
- I abruptly sent you away. All okay?

There's no problem.
I've settled in. Don't worry about me.

You're following your heart.

And you feel I shouldn't be around.
That's fine, son.

I know you'll come to see your father
when you find time. I won't mistake you.

You take care, son.
- I'll be in touch.

They didn't let us in
because they said we weren't qualified!

So, those who are in the system
are good at their jobs?

Let them track us down.
Let them catch us.

Mr. Uttaman...

you've been handling this case
all this time?

Let's continue to work that way.

I don't want to take over
and cause some ego clash between us---

Not at all, sir.

I'm saying, you go on as usual
and I'll work from behind the scenes.

I suggest this because...

I suspect that information
is somehow being leaked from here.

You know what I mean?

So...

As far as they're concerned,
you will be the known villain.

And I will be the secret villain.

Okay, sir.

Yeah, let's do it that way.

We can't just wait in silence.
Ask the girl to come!

I'm Chakravarthy.
Glad to meet you.

How are you?
- Very good, Uncle.

Okay for you?

Is that your second daughter?
- Yes.

She is very beautiful.

My son looks like actor Darmendra, too!

Take a look if you don't believe me.

If you don't mind...

let's arrange a grand wedding for both couples
on the same auspicious day?

Don't mistake me.
I was just speaking frankly.

We shouldn't be discussing this!
Let the kids go upstairs and talk.

Then we'll follow their decision.

Wow. Beautiful idea.

One hot cup of coffee,
and one important matter to discuss.

Let's discuss it?

Sure, anything.

Do you?

Do I...?

Do I what?

You know, you've got any ideas
about 'that'?

Do I have ideas about what?

Do you want it...?

Or...

do you not?

'Do you want it or not?'

Can you clarify?

Sir, you've been coming and going
and chatting and bonding for so long!

I sensed that you were
in love with me.

Do you want this?
Or not?

If you don't, that's fine.
But if you do, we need to plan accordingly.

So, I was wondering...

Why is he thinking so hard?

I know you want it.

I don't.

Damn you!

Considering my job,
and everything else...

you'll needlessly get into--

Sir, I get it.

When you say something,
I get that there must be a back story.

Now that you've said
you don't want it...

what will I do with your story?

Next week is my sister's engagement.

Is it?
- It is.

You could come...
as a friend!

Just as a friend.
- Definitely.

Come if you can...
or else, it's fine.

Anyway, you said you don't want it.

Crap.

I should have never asked!
- What about the coffee?

Sorry, I've run out of coffee.
Go buy yourself one.

They're both going upstairs
to speak privately.

Aren't they a great pair?

My name is Kapil Gavaskar.

That's a great name. Kapil Gavaskar!

You're the bowler AND the batsman, huh?

Yes, I'm an all-rounder.

You fraud!

You're just merrily chatting away
with him?

You'll even marry him right here?

I asked you whether you wanted it or not.
You said you didn't.

You know this wedding is happening
after a lot of trouble.

I don't want to ruin anything.

Besides, he looks exactly like Darmendra!

So fair. So good looking!

Don't we make a cute pair?

Mr. Groom...

Step aside.
- It was her.

What now?

I want it.
Okay?

Yeah?
Want what?

I am.
I am, too.

Enough?

You are what?
- You are what?

I am in love with you, woman.

Wow, he's never said that before.
He just did, for the first time.

You're so lucky for me.
My lucky boy!

When is this wedding?

If I say 'Okay',
in another ten days.

Okay, listen up.

Go down and say 'Okay'.

Tell them you really like this Darmendra.

Let's not complicate
your sister's wedding.

The minute your sister is married...

Okay?
- Excuse me...

You're making random plans.

What if this guy rats?

Who?

This guy?
He's not that type.

Okay, get going now.
Walk like a couple.

Hold hands.
Hold hands like love birds!

When can we hold hands...?
- Smile, Darmendra!

Smile!
Great, go now.

'Hey, beat it. Stop showing off;
Dude, cut it out. I call out your bluff.'

'Hey, beat it. Stop showing off;
Dude, cut it out. I call out your bluff.'

'Stop showing off, it ain't working;
Cut it out, I ain't buying.'

'Stop showing off, it ain't working;
Cut it out, I ain't buying.'

'Hey, Romeo!
You and I are quite the duo.'

'My Juliet!
The mother of my children.'

'I'll seize the moon,
Get it custom-sized for you!'

'Can you fold the clouds,
Fit it in the palm of my hands?'

'Stop showing off, it ain't working;
Cut it out, I ain't buying.'

'Stop showing off, it ain't working;
Cut it out, I ain't buying.'

'Fresh as Nirma laundry, teeth like Poppins candy;
How you move your Ujala body!'

'A protector like Lifebuoy, my Boost energy drink;
You're fizzing in my heart like Goldspot.'

'Come closer, my drink of Rasna - I love you!
You quench my thirst when you do.'

'My Dyanora King, love you too!
I'm craving a ride on your Kawasaki bike.'

'Come on, come on, come on, honey.
Let's move and party.'

'Stop showing off, it ain't working;
Cut it out, I ain't buying.'

'Hey, Romeo!
You and I are quite the duo.'

'My Juliet!
The mother of my children.'

'I'll seize the moon,
Get it custom-sized for you!'

'Can you fold the clouds,
Fit it in the palm of my hands?'

'Don't tell your father, we'll make merry;
Don't tell your mother, let's get busy.'

'Don't tell your father, we'll make merry;
Don't tell your mother, let's get busy.'

'Stop showing off, it ain't working;
Cut it out, I ain't buying.'

'Stop showing off, it ain't working;
Cut it out, I ain't buying.'

Why does it look
like a movie kidnap scene?

It's our first kidnapping,
so it got a little cinematic.

If someone in Tamil Nadu wants to become
a policeman, it depends on these 5 men.

Filthy scoundrels, you take a bribe
for a teachers' job, too?

That guy over there...

He charges 10 thousand
for an elementary teacher posting.

And this guy takes several hundred thousands
for high school teacher posting.

You scum!

It is said,
'Beg, if you must, for an education'.

To provide that education,
we slog through B.Ed and M.Ed courses...

but you make us beg you
for a posting!

If they pay a bribe
to get into the job...

Will they care about the people,
or getting their money back?

If 10 candidates compete
for a seat, that's fine.

With 10 thousand candidates,
what else can we do?

Cut the crap.

Give it to the top 10 most deserving.

Why do you give it to the guy
who pays you 10 thousand?

The bribe that you take
for this pathetic act...

is inside this bag.

In fact, there is more.

All you need to do is this:

erase the list you've got.

Whoever is truly qualified
for the job...

you will make sure they're hired.

Okay?

So what's this dirty money for?
- You tell us, sir.

It's for you to not take any more bribes.

What's this dirty money for?
- To not take any more bribes.

Brainless oaf, scoundrels, rats,
you make me want to swear...

They're going mad for money.
What?

It's strange...
because you're swearing.

Who said I don't swear?

When I'm pissed,
what else have I got?

They've found the number,
and the address.

Is this the end?

We're half-trapped.

We'll be fully trapped...
only a matter of time?

You didn't anticipate such a situation,
you've given all the money away.

Just the thought of earning an honest living
makes my head go dizzy.

We've already seen bundles and bundles
of cash in big suitcases.

If we can get our hands on another case
like that, we can settle down happily.

Come up with another plan?

I can't go to prison
at this age, son.

I'll go to some far away place,
and start a new life.

My Valarmathi, Vannamathi,
Vattamathi are my priority.

Come up with an idea.

We're caught now.
Every single day is a threat.

We must find a solution.

I'll do whatever you say,
just find us a way out?

Think of something, please.

Find a way for us to move somewhere
and live a new life.

Yeah?
What about it?

Okay, okay!

Okay, mom!
I'll attend!

Dynamic grad--
Dad!

Food!

Dude, check this out.

Wanted 50 dynamic graduates.

An interview!

CBI walk-in interview.

I'm ready.

Paranjothi Pandian from Pallavaram.
First in my class.

Shoot the first question.

Pardon?

CBI walk-in interview.

It's going on in there.

I know, this was my trials.

Sir?

Stand in the queue, man.
- Okay, sir.

Next?

I'm Paranjothi Pandian.

I've collected everyone's bio data.

Ready?
- Yes, ready.

Let's start?

Get up.
Did I ask you to sit?

Out.
First learn interview etiquette.

Leave, sir.

Tell us about yourself.

I am Navaneetha Krishnan.

Ramanathan.

Naresh Jabaraj.

K. Kunju Mohan, I'm a Kathakali dancer.
Can I dance, sir?

Narayana Murthy, sir.

The Raging Bull.

Karikala Cholan, sir.

Uppili Appan, sir.

My name is Cupid, sir.

Many girls love me, sir.
I don't love any girls, sir.

Because I love only CBI, sir.

Aisha Beghum.

Panneer Selvam.

Chidambaram.

Mayilvaganan, sir.

Vijaykanth.

Wasim Khan, sir.

'Pallavaram' Paranjothi Pandian, sir.

Prabakaran, sir.

Vannamathi.

You're appointed.
- Ma'am?

What's your name?
- Vannamathi, ma'am.

You're appointed.
You may leave.

Okay. Thank you, ma'am.

Mother Merciful, shall I call
the next candidate?

I'm Kamini. Age 21.

Vital stats 36 - 28 - 36.

Please go--
- This is my gift from God. I'll handle it.

Please come.

What was your name?
- Kamini.

Let me see your... file.

Such a massive file!

She must be well qualified!

Wait outside for now.

I'll come for you personally...

Bye!
- Bye!

Why a CBI Officer?

CBI is more powerful than
the police department.

It's always been my dream
to work in CBI.

I want to eradicate anti-social elements
from our society, sir.

I want to save my nation,
and that is my only passion, sir.

My father is admitted in the hospital, sir.

In India, everyone always become
a movie stars and cricket players, sir.

But I am always become only in--
intelligence, sir.

It's been forty years since we've attained
our independence.

But we are yet to develop
like our neighbouring countries.

If you give me job,
love you all, madam , sir.

We're a poor family...

There, there...
don't cry!

If I get this job,
my girlfriend will marry me, sir.

What's the problem in our country?

Corruption, sir.
And I hate corruption.

What's your name?
- Sasikala.

Okay, good!

Can you drive?

I was born for driver, sir.
My daddy was driving when I was born, sir.

That's why my name is Carmegam, sir.
I have driver blood, sir.

Tell me the expansion of CBI.

Central Bureau of Investigation, sir.

Central Bank of India, sir.

Central Bank of India, sir.

Central Bank of England...
Sorry--

Central Bank of Iraq, sir.

I don't know that, ma'am.

Central Bureau of Investigation, sir.

Calcutta-Bangalore-India, sir.

Central Bank of India, sir.

Central Bank of India.

Central Bank of India, sir.

Central Body of India, sir.

Central Bureau Pulling, sir.

Central Bureau of Investigation, sir.

CBI stands--
- Sir!

In the year 1941,
Special Police Establishment was formed.

But in the year 1963,
they changed the name to CBI.

Central Bureau of Investigation.

Am I right, sir?

I'm always prepared, sir.

If you're so well prepared,
why have you been unemployed for so long?

I attend all my interviews like this,
sincerely.

But they reject me
as I have a big mouth.

Can a question have only
one right answer?

I know 3 - 4 answers.
But they call me big mouthed for that!

Ask me any question,
and I'll give you 3 or 4 answers.

Really?
- Yes.

What is your father's name?

This is how I mess up
every job opportunity.

Sir, I know I can't have this job now.

But can you give me a second chance?

Why should I?

When a politician who plunders
millions...

loses the election and comes back
begging for votes 5 years later...

we give him second, third
and fourth chances.

I want to stop this plundering.
Why can't I get another chance?

I'll let you know.
You may go.

The two years you said
about CBI, what was that?

Madam, I'm relieved now.

I thought you wouldn't
speak to me till the end.

1941 and 1963.

I knew that.
I was just checking.

Thank you, madam.
Thank you, sir.

All right, friends.

We have the 30 people
that we need.

Hope to meet you all soon.

All the best and keep trying.

Okay, friends!

Same place tomorrow
at 9 in the morning.

Neat and sharp, got it?

Okay, sir.

Get a shave.
- Okay, sir.

I will get one, too.

Welcome back!

Born and brought up in different places,
we've come together for a common cause.

This is not some handpicked team.

It's a spontaneously formed team.

Who are you?
- Prabakaran, sir.

No.

Who are you?
- Vannamathi.

I didn't ask for your name.

You?
- Cupid, sir.

No! You?

A CBI Officer, sir.

What?
- A CBI Officer, sir.

CBI...

CBI Officer.

When we're born, we're "baby".

Growing up, we're "kid".

They call us by our first name and initials
when we go to school.

But when we leave this world...

"Policeman has died."
"Postman has died."

"Politician has died."
"Teacher has died."

"Cobbler has died."

You are identified by your job.

Your profession is your identity.

Don't forget this.

Your profession is your--
- Identity!

What is your identity?
- CBI Officers.

Come on, louder!
- CBI Officers.

But this is only temporary.

Tomorrow's raid is a
practical test for all of you.

If it goes right,
we will continue.

In case...

we're not able to work together...

or you need to be transferred
to other teams...

and I don't see you again...

always remember what I just told you.

We're not normal people to whine about
what's unfair, corrupt or broken.

We're officers in-charge of
running the government.

We are not bothered by politicians
who come and go every 5 years.

Officers like us,
who work even at the age of 50...

bureaucrats...

government servants...

we must stay true!

As long as we are good,
everything here will be good.

Will we be good?
- Yes, sir.

I didn't hear you.
- YES, SIR!

The 5 of your are equivalent
to a 100 people, you know?

We know, sir.

You can achieve anything you put your
heart to. Believe me?

We believe you, sir.

Subodhini...

your first month's salary.

Thank you, sir.

All the best.

Distribute it.

Cupid? Propose to some girl
and marry her soon.

Okay, sir.

Thank you.

What's up, 'Pallavaram' Paranjothi Pandian?
Employed at last?

Take this salary
and give it to your parents.

Watch their faces for a few minutes.

Muthu, give it to everyone.
- Okay.

Here.

Pass it that way.

You're all officially the most
powerful officers of India.

Are you proud to be a part of CBI?
- Yes, sir.

Are you the best?
- Yes, sir.

CBI means you're the best.
Are you the best?

Yes, sir!

Just remember one thing...

If we're true to our heart
and just in our actions...

we have nothing to fear.

Madam will conduct your briefing
at 11 tomorrow.

Okay, sir.

Our first operation...

since it's a secret operation...

no piece of information
can leave this room.

Understand?
- Yes, sir.

Do you understand?
- Yes, sir.

Disperse.
- Thank you, sir.

Thank you, madam.

What?

What just happened?

You made me forget who I am,
made me feel like I'm really CBI.

What, then?
We are CBI, aren't we?

Whatever you say.

What?

We're real CBI, alright.

Yeah?
- Kurunji!

I've been begging you for ages
to get my son a job at the CBI!

He attended the interview at
Hotel Ambassador Pallava and got selected.

What will you do now?

My son! My dear boy.

You're my treasure, son.
- Who is this?

Mr. Uttaman?

Yeah, it's me.

I heard there is a CBI recruitment
at Ambassador Pallava.

Why didn't we attend it?

Go, go, go.
Quick!

I've confirmed their room numbers...
- Calm down, Knuckle-head.

Sir, they're on the third floor.
Shall we proceed?

We know their room numbers...

We've covered all the floors!
They can't escape!

It's the same group I saw.
Let's go arrest them.

You both take the stairs.

Ask them to lock the back gate.

Should be interesting...

Look at them! Sitting here like
kids gone wild in a carnival.

Let me go!
- The officer beckons you.

Relax.

What is your name?

I asked for your name.

Jhansi Rani.

Oh, yes. Jhansi Rani.
- Yes, sir.

The great...

Oh, God!

...freedom fighter.

What is your name?

Azhagu Meena.
- Then what's with Jhansi Rani?

Rather than saying,
"Azhagu Meena, CBI Officer"...

when I say,
"Jhansi Rani, CBI Officer"...

it does have a better ring to it, sir?

You're all CBI Officers?
Bloody jokers.

Jokers?
Take your hands off!

We are not jokers.
We are just weak people.

Affected by this bloody corrupted system.

Just because we're down...

doesn't mean we cannot get up.

One day, if we all try and get up...

What's your relationship with that group?

What's your relationship with that lady?

Sir!

Are you fooling around?

Do you and that lady
fool around at nights?

I'll punch your face in!

Answer him.

Sir, shall I wait outside?

The group interview you conducted downstairs,
what was that for, Azhagu?

There is a jewellery store called
GVR Jewellers.

We're not enough.
We needed professionals, right?

So we conducted an interview
and selected them.

You conducted an interview for CBI
and selected candidates, huh?

You're a woman!
Aren't you ashamed?

When men are shamelessly
engaging in so many acts...

women can shamelessly
engage in some.

It's not wrong.

She spoke so much the other day, too!

My husband got paralysed
after an accident.

He hasn't gotten up since.

They gave me his job.
I went to work.

Every other person...

started telling me, "He can't do much.
Call me if you need help."

How could I go to work there?

When I go to a job interview,
before I could greet them 'hello'...

they'll send me packing,
refusing to give me a job.

It's not my fault
I say 'hello' the way I do!

Basically, I'm a classical
Bharatanatyam dancer.

So this body language stuck with me.
What can I do?

When we were unemployed and suffering...

he gave us jobs as CBI Officers.

Even though it wasn't real,
we have been dedicated in our duties.

My senior CBI Officers...

Are you under the impression
that you're really a CBI Officer, Azhagu?

I don't know whether it is true or not.

To me, I'm Jhansi Rani.
I am a CBI Officer.

What are you planning
to do tomorrow afternoon?

What are you planning to do
with that lady tomorrow night?

Goddamn!

Tomorrow at 1 in the afternoon...

we're planning a heist at GVR Jewelers.

But if you tell us not to,
we surely won't do that, sir.

I feel what you're about to do tomorrow
is a little risky.

Think about it?

Think about what?

We gave away everything we made,
never thought to hold on to it.

But now we have the need.

I don't know what else to do.

These four people...

they're like children.

They do whatever I say,
without questioning me.

Okay, Mrs. Azhagu or Whatever Rani.

Your family's ration card
is so cluttered...

what's that? Vannamathi, Valarmathi,
Vattamathi...

They're children, sir.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

If you don't want them
to be harmed...

I will prevent the raid from happening.
- No.

No.

This raid must take place tomorrow,
just like you planned.

The other Uttaman
must come to the raid.

Then, other than him,
none of you will be in trouble.

Sir, what will you do to him...?

Poor guy...
- What did you say?

Do whatever you want to him!
Just let me go, sir.

I'm not too worried about myself.
But they...

They must remain unharmed.
I won't let them be harmed.

It's the one thing
they asked for.

I have to do this for them, right?

We'll listen to you
and follow your orders exactly.

Please don't hurt us!

Come here.

Sir, I'll do as you say.

Will you?

Sure?
- I'll do it, sir.

Tomorrow, make sure you do
exactly as I told you.

Please don't jinx it
by saying negative things?

But I must say my piece, right?
That's my role here!

Please point the gun away?

Happy?

Okay?

Mr. Kurinjivendan, why did you
call for this urgent meeting?

You've caught them now.
Produce them at the court tomorrow.

Get them a sentence.
Then, close the case.

If I do that, they'll easily get away
due to insufficient evidence.

You must know of
many such cases, sir.

With all due respect...

I believe, only if the punishment is tough,
can we prevent crimes.

Similarly, the innocent
should never be incriminated.

When a man commits a huge crime,
he should know he can never get away...

he should fear for his life!

Only then, will he not repeat that mistake.
Only then, will nobody repeat that mistake.

If I arrest them and produce them
at court without strong evidence...

They'll get away in a flash!

Because... they've only planned a robbery.
The case won't hold.

Let me decide...
what to do with them.

I've already thought it through.

Trust me with this.

I assure you. It will remain a secret
and no names will be revealed.

Okay.

That!

That's all I wanted!

Thank you.

Sir, I'm off!

Carry on.
- Thank you, sir.

Jhansi Rani!

Uttaman!

CBI Special Wing.

Search!

Sir, please.
I've got receipts for everything.

Shut up!
- Please, sir.

Brother...

Brother...

Have you fallen asleep?

Come on, let's go.

Hello, sir.
Please come here?

Uttaman, Joint Director - CBI.

We've done nothing wrong.
It's a genuine business, sir.

We've got all the bills in order, sir.

Why do you get so scared of the CBI?
You're doing legitimate business?

Yes, sir.
- Then why are you afraid?

They're using this fear
to play their game.

What game, sir?
- Come, I'll tell you.

Two hours from now,
a raid is about to take place here.

But those officers
are not original CBI like us.

They're a bunch of thieves.

Before they get here,
we must shift the jewels to safe place.

Okay, sir.

We'll pack the original jewels from here
and take it to our place.

And fill up our shop with
the duplicate jewels we've got.

Okay, sir.

None of your faces must betray
our plan.

You stay normal.

Okay?

We kept saying there's no evidence...

Sir, superb, sir.
Very good, sir.

Sir!
- Good morning, sir.

Paranjothi Pandian...
- Yes, sir.

We're going ahead.
You lead them.

Me?
- Yeah!

Sir!

I have a doubt, sir.

In case you're delayed,
shall I finish up the raid?

Paranjothi Pandian...

That mouth of yours...
- It's too big?

I'll make it smaller.
For you. Right now.

Thank you, sir.

Let's go.

Move.

Knuckle-Head... move the jewels
safely, like I told you.

I'll handle it, sir.
No problem.

Be very careful.
- Yes, sir. No problem.

You guys go ahead,
I'll follow you.

Get in.

The bus is going one way
and we're going in another?

I don't understand.
- The bus is going that way!

Yeah, tell him.

We're circling the same place.
- This is the fourth round!

He's looking at us!

What, sister?
- Nothing.

Everything will be okay?

It will.

Ready, brother?

All okay. No problem.

Follow me.
Follow his car.

Once I become permanent at this job,
I'll get a house in Velachery.

Velachery?
- Yes, it will be the new Mount Road.

Are you all married?

No, sir.

What about you?

I am 'Pallavaram' Paranjothi Pandian.

For 30 years, I've been waiting
just to marry a CBI Officer.

One of you should marry me
after the operation is over.

Sir...
- What?

I need to take a leak.
- You're CBI Officers!

You can't hold back Number 1?

Cross your legs, you can control it.
I'm talking here.

Okay, boys and girls.
- Okay, sir.

Attention!
- Yes, sir.

Stand at ease!
- Yes, sir.

You handle it
till I come back.

Okay, sir.

You, come here!

Come here for a minute.

Me?

Yes, you.
Come here.

That guy doesn't know I'm CBI.
I'll just be back, keep an eye, okay?

Move aside.
I can't see the building.

We're going hunting today!

Is something about to happen here?

You look innocent.
So I'll tell you.

There is going to be a CBI raid.

You're a CBI Officer?

Can you believe it?
I can't believe it myself.

I was appointed only yesterday.
And I am on a secret operation today.

Such a big jewellery store!

Am I so forceful or what?

That bus over there,
30 CBI Officers are in it.

30 Officers?

Sir, what oil do you use for your eyebrows?
It's nice and thick!

My head is balding.
I'll start using it now.

I'll tell you on the way out.

Would you like to drink Gold Spot?

It's hot. Drink it up!

Gold Spot and Citra
will go out of business.

It seems the big soft-drink companies
are coming to India.

CBI got a tip-off.

Can you all please wait outside?

If this is reported by newspapers,
it will be embarrassing to our department.

Moreover, we don't have solid evidence
or a complaint to arrest them.

Knuckle-Head.
Come in.

Are you on the right route? Over.

I'm on the way, sir.
Over.

Contact me after you reach there.
Over.

I'll be there in a few minutes.
You don't worry.

Over.

Raghu, are you following the vehicle
I asked you to? Over.

Yes, sir. We are following that vehicle.

Good. Keep following.
Over.

All your officers are here,
why haven't you started the raid?

This isn't like buying candy, sir!
It's a raid. A CBI raid!

Our boss needs to be here.
- Aren't you the boss?

I am the boss...

But I'm boss to
only those 30 people.

I have a big boss.

He's not here yet.
Unlike you, he won't wait in the road.

Officer, you have a phone call.

Sir, I'll be back.

Sir!
Excuse me.

Did you catch my collar
by mistake?

Boys, don't shoot.
It was a mistake.

Come, I'll get you a soft drink.

Just come on!

After the raid, let's watch
'A Mother's Oath.'

They're going to increase the cinema tax.
CBI inside news.

Where's the phone?
- There.

Hold up, sir.

Hello?

Sir?
- Shh!

"When an oppressor beats the oppressed"...

"whether or not God beats the oppressor"...

"someone will come by
and beat the hell out of him."

That's a good proverb, right?

Sir, I'm entitled to know.

He's already conducted the raid
and gotten away.

If he's already conducted the raid,
what use am I? And the 30 Officers?

We've been waiting all day!

Then our jewels are gone?
- Answer us, sir.

I want to...

tell you something.

Knuckle-Head... I mean, Vetrivel.
Come in.

Vetrivel, where are you?

Sir, there is heavy traffic.
Over.

I got a random call,
and I was told strange things.

You're going to the
place I asked you to?

You found out?

You worked it out already?
You're a scientist!

Don't fool around, Knuckle-Head.

Who is the Knuckle-Head now?
You're the Knuckle-Head.

You're a Knuckle-Head,
your father is a Knuckle-Head...

your grandfather is a Knuckle-Head,
your third cousin is a Knuckle-Head...

Your grandfather's illicit son
is a Knuckle-Head.

In short, you're one
massive Knuckle-Head!

Get it?

You Knuckle-Head!

You thought you were playing
us with your plan?

Intimidate, threaten,
and catch us red-handed?

Run him over!

Start the vehicle.

Start the vehicle!

Help!

Brother!

Over here.

Do the important thing first.
Go on.

Okay.
- Hurry up, Muthukumar.

Sir, you're safe?

I'm okay.
- No head injury?

No, I'm perfectly alright.
- You can hear me fine?

I can! Now, help me.
- You can hear me clearly?

Okay, then. Pass me the jewellery.

Hurry up, sir.

Pass those boxes.

Pass it, quick.

Here, take these.

Sir--
- Wait, what's the hurry?

What are you doing?

You asked us to do
the important thing!

You guys!
- So I'm not important?

I'll deal with you
when I get out.

You need to get out of here.
Now!

Get in the car.

Get in, now.
- It's all my fault.

What are you talking about now?
Get out of here.

Leave now.
- I'm not leaving without you.

Trust me! Get in the car, now.
Quick.

Start the car! Leave!

Give me your hand.
- It hurts.

Why do you refuse to come out?

My leg is stuck.
Your people refused to help me.

What is your leg stuck to?
- It's stuck, brother.

Brother, it hurts.
It hurts so bad.

Pull your leg out.
- I can't. It hurts!

Pull it out, careful.

Quick.

Brother, I can't. It hurts.
- Come on.

Brother, I can't.

Come on.
Just a little further.

Sir, I need more manpower.

Get moving.
- Yes, sir.

Sir!

Yes! Yes!

I nabbed them, sir.

Sir, his entire gang is here.
We can get them.

Sir, they're at the old railway station
by the harbour. Over.

Okay, I'm on my way.

Give me your car keys.
I'll take care of it.

Wow!

Stellar performance.

With me?

Good try.

You pretended to be Knuckle-Head
and fooled everyone.

Not me.

You're worse than a criminal.
- Sorry, sir.

Traitor!

And you...

Oh?

He is the guy?

He is the guy?

Why do you bother with all this, old man?

Flashing a gun at someone...?
- Yeah, what's all this?

Who is the old man?

Me?

Never.

Sir!

They did a much better job than you.
That's why I joined them.

My intention wasn't to betray you.
- What's this, sir?

What do you want me to do?

Why are you arresting me?

What crime do you think
we've committed?

Sir, two things:

One - we only did what your
department was supposed to do.

All the names you erased from your list,
we went to their houses and raided them.

How is that wrong?

Two - The money we made from the raids,
we've spent it the right way.

What you do with the money
you recover from raids...

and how you've developed the country...

we see no progress,
yet we're not allowed to question you?

Can't you see for yourself,
we need money here.

It's come to a point where money
is everything. Whose fault is that?

Even if someone is qualified,
he needs to pay to get a job.

Keep moving.
Surround them.

Those who have money
can live the lives they wish for.

The ones without money?

He must live the wretched life he gets,
brood over it, and die. Right?

How can I let that pass?

So...

To help those without money
live the lives they dream of...

I did what had to be done.

I saw a life departing before my eyes.
I didn't want it to happen again.

I shouldn't have spared you!
You've got some nerve.

Knuckle-Head!

Dude, you're the Knuckle-Head!

I didn't mean that.
Sorry, sir.

What are you thinking?
Just shoot these people down.

Mr. Uttaman, you know him?

Oh! You don't know?

He is the Uttaman who made me Uttaman.

What?

He's the reason I'm on the
wrong side of law.

That's not important.
Don't listen to him. Just kill him.

Arrest him.
- What?

Let's not do anything without
interrogating him.

Sir, you're the one who said men like him
shouldn't be arrested, but killed!

People are watching.
Just arrest them.

Sir, if you can't do it
give me the gun. I will.

Sir, please sir.

Sir, I'll handle the consequences.

That mad man might just shoot us.
- Let's ask him.

Hey, big guy!
- Dude!

What did you say?
- Just shoot us.

See how cocky he is?

If he touches his gun,
shoot him down, brother.

What are you saying?

Who is your guy here?

You've got a gun? Who is he talking to?
- Not me, sir.

Give me the gun, sir.
- He touches the gun, kill him!

Go for it, sir. I'm not saying anything.

You're trying to throw a scare?
- What are you doing, man?

Sir!

Sir! Sir, don't...
don't give it.

If he touches the gun...

Who are you talking to?

Don't mind me.
I'm just rambling out of fear.

I'll kill you!

Brother...

Brother, shoot him.

Who is he talking to?
Who is his brother here?

Trying to give me a fright?

Knuckle-Head, trying to make a Knuckle-Head
out of me, eh?

I swear I don't know
what he's doing.

If you're man enough,
try escaping now.

Close your eyes and die, right here.

Sir!

What happened?

Where are you firing, guys?

Who fired his gun?

Sir, we didn't fire.
- Must be them.

Who was it?
- No one from my team fired.

You guys are terrible!
Come on, guys!

Sir, they shot you 'there'?

Show me?
Oh, just your finger!

Sit down, sir.
Kneel down.

He refuses to kneel--

Sir, show me.

Let me look at your finger?
It's fully severed?

Oh, no.
You can't get it up?

Not bad.

Your height doesn't really matter.

What matters is
the heights we reach.

That money was just lying in the toilets.
I let it fly in the wind.

Some of it has turned into the force,
and now stands majestically.

The funny thing is, bribery can
be eradicated only with bribery!

Money, money, money!

Who knows, one day people
will even buy votes for money!

But we can't just let it pass.

If we do something,
something will change.

You said, "If you're man enough,
try escaping now?"

I'm not just a man.

I'm a lion!

Brothers, I'm signing out now.

If he tries moving,
what must you do?

Beautiful!
Okay, then.

Watch me escape now,
and just stay there!

Get it, big guy?

One minute.

That was good.
Smart.

I understand what went down here.
I'll tell you two things:

First thing - join our department.

I'll make sure no cases
are filed against you.

You don't believe me?
Let me explain.

I'm saying I'll get you an official job
in our department.

What do you mean?

I'll recommend you for the job.

What job will I get?
- Inspector.

Inspector?
- Yeah.

Me?
- Yes!

What can I do with that job, sir?

The things you're doing illegally,
join us and do it legally.

Can I go on raids?
- Of course.

Just like my dad wanted,
I can raid on my own?

I swear on Lord Murugan,
you can!

I...

You can raid everyday.
There is a big list already.

But...

I'm doing that already.

Why should I join you?
- Ah, yes.

Yeah, yeah!
- Look at him.

They'll fight with someone at night,
and ask us to raid them.

They'd patch up next morning, and
tell us the raid is cancelled. Right?

After your retirement...

if you wish to work the right way,
you can join us anytime.

You're always welcome.

Come.

Wait, you haven't heard
the second thing yet.

Enough already!
I'm tired...

Sir, I'll visit the hospital
and be back.

That is okay.

It's only been 7 days
since I took over the case.

I already know everything about you,
and the team behind you.

Just two days.

Go for it, sir.

But you will have to cross
many people to get to me...

I saw that.

Who are we?

Police Officers!

Not loud enough...

Can't hear you!

Police Officers!

Teachers!

It's not a handpicked group, sir.

Wow, beautiful idea.

Show me your passport.
- Here.

Is all of this gold?

Yes, sir.

She is wearing all gold, too?
- They're asking questions!

You can't travel in the ship
wearing so much jewellery.

Hello!
What's the problem here?

Why are you questioning her?

Who are you?
What's your name?

Jhansi Rani.

CBI Special Wing.
- Yes, madam.

Let them in.
- But they're wearing so much jewellery.

They're from a royal family.

Have you heard of the Magizhmathi stories?
- No, madam.

She is from Sivagami's bloodline, you know?

She even goes to sleep
with all the jewels on.

Go in.
- Your passport?

This says Jhansi Rani,
but this one read Azhagu Meena?

Answer me.

Well...
- Answer me.

Are they with you?

Check their passports and bags thoroughly.

Ma'am.
Sir!

Ma'am! You're still here?

I told them...
- Sir, what's the problem?

She is traveling for an important case.
- ...different names on her ID and passport.

I was sent here by sir to
escort them.

Which 'sir' sent you here?
- Two minutes, madam.

I'm asking you,
which sir sent you here?

Captain, if madam loses her temper,
that would be the end of it!

She's angry!
She's staring at you.

She's staring at you.

Give her the passport.
Give it.

Sorry for the inconvenience, ma'am.

Come, let's go inside.
- Where is he?

Is it enough if your husband is here,
what about mine?

He'll come, let's go.
- I won't come.

You don't get it!

Brother, how can I leave him behind?
- Come on, now.

The height should be about 50ft?

What were you yapping about?

Shouldn't you get to your seats?

Come on, kids.
Get in.

Sister, get the kids seated.
- Send them in.

I got scared.

I feared I'd end up single in Singapore.

With 4 kg jewellery on me,
and lugging this big group with me...

constantly worrying
about what could go wrong...

Move aside.

Move!

So?

You know, this is the first
time we're sitting like this.

When things were happening
too fast too soon,

where was
the time for love?

I wanted to ask you something...

What's your name?

You wretched man!

We've been through so much--
- You don't even know my name?

I just found the time...

Tell me your name,
your favourite colour...

any nicknames from school?

I'm just putting this time to good use.
Need to continue the raids there.

You said you'll marry me tomorrow.

You will, right?
- Marry you?

Why should we get married?

Let's be happy,
and live with an understanding.

Understanding?

Brother, look what this girl wants from me!
- What?

I tell her there's no need for marriage,
and she's shocked.

Why, sir?
Mark my words...

In 25 - 30 years time, people will get shocked
when someone asks "Shall we get married?"

Don't get that girl worked up.

You relax now.
- Absolutely.

Less tension, more work.

More work, less tension.

What happened now,
why are you laughing?

I thought of the world,
and hence I laughed.

That's enough.
- I am out of breath!

Thank you!
