All language subtitles for Mayaa ESub

Get in.

I am asking you to go inside.

You're at it again.

Your child is with me.

She doesn't respect you at all.

Look, there's your child.

What is it?
- She's missing.

I shall come back.

Where's she? Who's that?
- She's the one.

I will.. - If the warden finds
out, we'll be so dead.

Go, catch her.
- ...come back..

Get her! Go!
- I shall

come back.

Have you heard of Bloody Mary?

Blackberry?

Like in the English horror films

if you stand before a mirror
and say Bloody Mary thrice

a ghost appears.

Haven't you seen it?
- Who has the time?

She watches them always.

Don't you believe in such things?

I don't know. Why?
- Okay, drop your card.

Yesterday, the editor had mailed a story.

A ghost story.

I started sketching as soon as I read it.

I've been sketching
here for six years.

Not once have I been
distracted while sketching.

When I'm sketching, I'm not even
conscious of my surroundings.

But last night, exactly
5 minutes before 12

there was a strange odor in my room.

You know the odor specific to hospitals..

It was like that.

It was there and then it was gone.

I've never believed in ghosts.

But last night, I was terrified.
- What happened?

Who is it at this odd hour?

Leave that.

I'll tell you how the story ends.
Do you want to listen?

A forest named Mayavanam.

In that forest
stuck alone..

A guy is running for his life,
lost in the woods.

He doesn't have a torch or anything.

His clothes are in tatters
and blood is oozing out of his body.

As he runs

he somehow manages to reach
the entrance of the forest.

He is terrified.
His heart is racing.

He takes a step forward.

As soon as he does
he feels someone's presence behind him.

He hesitates for a second

and starts walking again, slowly.

And he says..

"Maya, I don't have your baby."

"Maya, I don't have your baby."

"Maya, I don't have your baby."

Thrice.

As soon as he says so
an odor fills the place.

The next second

he senses someone breathing
down his neck.

Immediately he tries to run for his life.

The ghost grabs and pulls him up
and he screams.

He couldn't hear his own screams.

Just a baby's cry.

And?

The rest will be revealed next week.

What? Are you creating suspense?

Haven't you read stories
like this before?

At the end of that story,
there was a disclaimer

stating that if one wishes to read
Maya's story the next week

one should not call out her name
thrice at night.

Why is it always thrice?
Won't four or five times work?

To heck with your logic.
- I was skeptical too.

So, last night
I turned off all the lights

and called out Maya thrice.

Believe it or not

as soon as I did,
someone touched my neck.

I jumped in shock
and turned the lights on

but nobody was there.

And? What's next?

Are you going to say that you died
two days ago and you're a spirit?

Forget it.

^You would believe me
if it happened to you.

^I don't want to upset you.
Let's try it.

^Try what? I'm not willing
to play this game.

Why? Won't Maya appear
during power cuts?

^This is not a game,
listen to me.

^Wait, let's try it.
- Listen to me.

^No.

Maya, I don't have your baby.

Maya, I don't have your baby.

Please listen to me.

Maya, I don't have your baby.

^Will she appear or not?

Don't you smell something strange?

Disclaimer - To read the next episode,
don't utter Maya's name

at night.

Still hung over from last night?

Vasanth..

We have around eight more to check.

Who is she?
- Katherine, a writer.

She's in India for her research.

What is this?

With whose permission
did you upload this?

Why? What's the problem?
- Look, Vasanth.

I don't know if you
believe in this or not.

But what you and your friend did
last night was a big mistake.

What mistake?

The place mentioned in the book exists.

It's called Mayavanam.

There was a plump, dark guy
next to me, right?

You should have spoken to him.
He is the forest guard.

Do you know what happens
there at night?

Maya is not just a legend.

It is specifically mentioned in the story

that you shouldn't utter
Maya's name thrice.

What if something happens to you
and your friend?

If what you say is true,
why didn't Maya appear last night?

Who said that she didn't?

Hello, sir.
This week's story was very good.

How many people were
at home last night?

My friend, his wife and me.

Why?
- Are you sure?

Yes.

Are you sure?
- Yes. Why?

And this?

Apsara!

Apsara?

Did you short-list the one
who came now? - Yes, sir.

Why do they audition
if they can't act?

No experience, nothing!

Sir..

Apsara..
Sit down.

You look familiar.

Have you acted before?
- No.

Sir!
She is Mr. Arjun's wife.

They're not together any more.
- Oh!

Love marriage?

Sorry!
Have you read the lines?

This is not required.

I'll tell you the situation,
improvise on it.

Your name is Maya.
Age 23.

Love marriage.

You're madly in love
with your husband.

On the day of your anniversary
you learn two things.

One, your husband is
having an affair.

Two, you're pregnant.

The same night after dinner

in his juice you mix poison.

Say, I am your husband.

I have five minutes to die.

What will be your
last words to me?

Action.

Happy anniversary.

Cut.

You performed really well today.
RK was so impressed.

When did you sleep last night?

I'm talking to you.

You haven't slept well in a week.

Look, either you talk to Arjun
or do as I say.

I've fixed an appointment
for 6:00 p.m. tomorrow.

What appointment?
- Counseling.

She's a family friend of mine.

Just talk to her once,
you'll feel better.

There's an ATM there. Pull over.

Still not credited?
What was the payment for?

For the commercial I shot for
the Frames showroom last month.

You deposited it
on the correct date, right?

Check again tomorrow.

If it's not credited by tomorrow
go to the producer's office.

This is the second time.
Are they fooling around?

If the check bounces,
we can't let him be.

How devious these people are!

What is it? Isn't he picking up?

Always prefer cash from now on.

When is the due date?
- I already paid yesterday.

I'll pay you back in two days.
- Just focus on your acting.

Do you have enough money
for your daily needs? - Yes.

Well?
- Yes.

"You are all I have."

"The bond of motherhood unites us."

"Is life a symphony"

"of pain?"

"Only your presence"

"takes painful memories away."

"Come, sail across the ocean.."

"Come over as a full moon."

"My life."

Did you see the cellophane tape?
- It should be under the book.

It's not here.

Swathi, check who it is.

Arjun is here.

Didn't I tell you not
to turn off the room's light?

I didn't.

Hello, your husband is here.

Why?
- What kind of a question is that?

To see you and Meera. Why else?
- Tell him that I'm asleep.

Apsara!

Arjun hasn't made such a mistake
that you can't even talk to him.

Why are you so stubborn?

Get married and I'll tell you why.

Don't take any check from him.

It's between you and Arjun.
Leave me out of this.

We'll announce the contest in two days.
The prize money is 0.5 million.

You have to watch it alone
in the preview theater.

0.5 million?
Is your film that scary?

It's for publicity.

This strategy has
already been used

for the Hindi movie, Phoonk 2.

Our movie has been
ready for seven months now.

No distributor is buying it.

The director has taken many loans
and is in a lot of debt.

Why? Isn't the movie good?
- No, the movie is good.

In fact, I like it very much.

Horror movies these days
are all the same.

What is so special about your film?

Have you heard of Mayavanam?

No.
- It's a dangerous forest.

We shot most of the film there.
In the nights.

You know, only after going there
I started believing in ghosts.

And also got the idea
for this contest.

Can anybody participate
in the contest?

Yes, there are five conditions.

Condition number one!

The movie's duration
is one and a half hours.

No interval. You cannot
leave the screening midway.

Condition number two!

You must sign a document
stating that the director

is not responsible for any mishaps.

Is it that bad?
- Listen.. Condition number three.

You cannot close your eyes
during the screening.

You can blink normally.

We will monitor you
through cameras.

Condition number four!
We will monitor your pulse rate.

It has to be normal throughout.

Condition number five?

Night show.
You can only watch a night show.

What if many people show up?
Whom will you select?

There's no selection process as such.

Whoever signs first, gets in.

You guys might have been
in love for many years

but now she's someone else's wife.

And that someone happens
to be your boss.

Why don't you just tell her
not to call you again?

Are you asking me to start
all over again?

You love it when she calls up,
don't you?

Says who?
- Fine.

Looks like you'd gladly accept her
if she divorces her husband.

Let's see when it happens.
- What do you mean?

Hey, leave that.
- Do you still like her or not?

Look at this first.
- What is this?

I got these pictures
on the internet last night.

They are just photography tricks.

There are no such things as ghosts.

Why are you telling me this now?

This is a screenshot
of last night's video.

This apparition is due
to the flash and the smoke

but they assert that it's a ghost.

It does look like a figure.
- Oh, please!

Chitra is far better than you.

She watches horror movies
alone at home.

Hello.
- Don't hang up, Kamal.

I need to talk to you for five minutes.

I don't know why Vasanth
is avoiding me.

He thinks that I am happy,
but I am not.

Please pass on what I am
about to tell you.

A month ago,
I opened up about Vasanth to Ram

for the first time.

Since then he doesn't
talk to me properly

nor does he come home every day.
He avoids me totally.

On top of all this, there's a writer
from the U.S. named Katherine.

He has made her stay
in the guest house.

He spends a lot of time with her.

I don't know how
to deal with this.

I don't know whom
to share it with either.

I feel like I'm going insane.

In addition to this,
Vasanth never answers my call.

I understand that it's hard for you.

But what difference will it make
if you tell Vasanth about this?

You already know

that we were best friends
before we fell in love.

What's wrong in being friends again?

I'll tell you something.

After a guy falls in love,
he can't go back

to being friends again.

They could pretend.
Vasanth is good at it.

He hasn't married yet.

He hasn't moved on.

Please talk to your husband
and sort things out.

Let go of Vasanth.
It's for your own good.

Okay?
I'll hang up.

May I come in?
- Sir, you? Here?

I just wanted to drop in.
- Come in.

You didn't believe any of what
I told you yesterday, right?

It's not that I don't believe it..

I have a logical
explanation for the video.

That is nothing more
than a photography trick.

I've even mailed you
some referral pictures.

Ask him yourself.

It is mentioned that your story
is not completely fictitious.

So, did those things really happen?

13 kilometers beyond the city limits

there is a forest named
Mayavanam. Have you heard of it?

30 years ago
it was home to an asylum.

Many are unaware of this.

After a detailed research on it
this book written by Katherine

is the inspiration to my story.

I started writing after drawing
facts from the book.

During that period

there was no awareness
about mental health.

Not knowing how to deal
with the mentally ill

people would leave them
at the asylum.

They were abused by being given shock
treatments and by other methods.

Most of them turned insane
in the asylum.

It was worse than a jail.

Mayavanam was one such place.

To perform such sadistic deeds

they chose a place
in the middle of the forest.

The main difference between
other hospitals and this one

was the patients
who were admitted.

They were either orphans

or people rejected by their families.
Only such people were admitted.

The reason behind this
came to light later.

Everyone was bound

and used for experiments
that were meant for animals.

No matter what the side effects were

they were used
until they were dead.

Unable to withstand this
many tried to escape.

All the dead patients were buried
in a cemetery behind the hospital.

They didn't maintain
any records of the patients.

Even their personal belongings
were buried along with them.

When I tried approaching
the ex-employees of the asylum

I found that most of them
had died mysteriously.

The ones alive refused
to divulge any information.

But there was one patient
they all remembered..

Maya!
Maya Matthews!

The protagonist of my story.

She was from a wealthy family.

She fell in love and married
without her family's consent.

On her first wedding anniversary
she learned two things.

One!
She was pregnant.

Two!
Her husband had an affair.

That night, her husband died.

His food contained poison.

Maya was accused of losing her
mind and poisoning the food.

Hence, she was sent to the asylum.

Since the day of her admission

she never spoke to anyone at the asylum.

She confined herself to her room
and kept writing in a diary.

She delivered a baby
eight months later.

She started bonding,
only with her kid.

But a week later, the baby was
taken away from her.

No one knew what happened
to the baby after that.

She left no stone unturned
to look for her.

Maya, I don't have your baby.

They wrote that all over her
walls and made fun of her

because she kept asking them
over and over again.

She tried escaping many times.
She couldn't.

Meanwhile, a freak medical experiment

made Maya blind.

Within a week of this mishap

Maya died, falling off
from the terrace of the asylum.

Whether this was
a suicide or an accident

nobody knows.

In her coffin,
three things were buried

along with her.

The diary that she wrote

and the doll that she'd
bought for her kid.

A doll that sings when you key it up.

Even after she died

in Maya's ward, at night,
the doll's song could be heard.

And finally a diamond ring.
Maya's wedding ring.

She had it when she was
admitted to the asylum.

There are two theories about what
happened to the ring after that.

One! It's in Maya's coffin
with the diary and the doll.

The other!

A relative who was behind her
admission to the asylum has it.

Greedy for money, he dumped her
there and took the ring.

Whatever it is
today the ring is worth

about 130 to 140 million.

What!
130 to 140 million!

How many years has it
been since Maya died?

Twenty four!

Hasn't anyone tried taking
the ring until now?

Will you?
- My wife will.

Many have tried looking
for it in her coffin.

Those who went into the forest
looking for it, never returned.

Why?

Once a woodcutter went
into the forest in search of it.

He never returned.

His friends went in search of him.

It is a huge forest.
He was found nowhere.

While returning to seek
the police's help

they heard the sound
of an axe cutting a tree.

When they took a closer look
their friend was cutting the tree.

Headless.
- Without a dress?

Headless.

After that incident,
nobody goes there.

Hunters go there
sometimes to hunt.

But only during the day.

You look really excited
after hearing about Maya's ring!

If I continue listening to him,
I can never drive at night.

Chitra will be alone.
Drop him and get back soon.

Sir..

Please be silent when I drive.
- Alright.

See you, Vasanth.

Who is it?

Hey..

I would've told you
at least once a month

that we are not meant to be.

I've fought and have gone weeks
without speaking to you.

Your phone calls, messages..
I've ignored them all.

Above all

remind me tomorrow about
why you love me after all this.

A better anniversary gift..

There could be no better anniversary
gift than that for me, Arvind.

Ready?

Roll camera..

Action!

Even after all this

remind me tomorrow
about why you love me.

There could be no better anniversary
gift than that for me, Arjun.

Sorry! Can we go for another take?

I would've told you
at least once a month

that we are not meant to be.

For me and Arjun..
Acting is our first love.

We've done many plays and
dramas together since school.

We got married immediately
after college.

Nothing changed for a year.
We attended auditions together.

We were happy despite
the lack of opportunities.

At that time,
we didn't expect to have Meera.

We started blaming each other.

He asked me to abort the baby.
I didn't agree.

We both got an opportunity
at that time.

They offered us both the lead
roles in a film.

He said that the shooting would
be in another place.

He said, if we did the film,
it would be a breakthrough.

When he tried to convince me
to abort the baby

I firmly refused.

We ended up fighting often.

At that time, his first priority
was neither me nor the baby.

Finally, I asked him to choose
between us and the movie.

He left without an answer.

I decided not to expect
anything from him anymore

and moved in with Swathi.

Meera was born there.

I decided that Meera shouldn't
grow up an orphan like me.

Your parents?

I don't have parents, Doctor.

What hurts is that he left us
despite knowing that.

Meera is a year old now.

Although, I've been taking
loans after we split

Swathi has been supporting me.

I don't know how I'm
going to repay her.

Despite attending auditions regularly

I am often rejected citing Meera
and my marriage as the reasons.

I'm yet to get
the right opportunity.

Right now, I'm doing
commercials for survival.

It's tough.

I believe, I can follow my
dreams and bring up Meera.

I'm waiting for just
one opportunity.

Good, Apsara. Don't miss
out on your food and rest.

We'll wind up next week
with another session.

"A little bit of moon..
A little bit of fire.."

"And that's my body!"

Meera..

Meera..

It's nothing, dear.

What is it, dear?

Swathi?

Swathi?

Swathi?

Fantastic song!
You're listening to..

I am your RJ, Vidya.

Wait a minute!

She's home, I'll talk to her and call you.

Okay.

You told me I'd get my money
on the 17th of last month.

I called you and informed you.
- That the check bounced.

You asked for ten days' time.

I've already
deposited the check

but the money hasn't
been credited.

I'll get it tomorrow,
I'll bring it myself..

I'd better get my money tomorrow.

You can afford such a big house
and yet you can't pay me!

It's my friend's.
- Friend?

Then borrow it from your friend.

I don't care what you do tomorrow.

You need to be in my office by ten.

Delays in payment are common.

It's of no use talking to me.

After the shoot, my work is done.

Go, meet the producer.

The check bounced and the
producer's phone is switched off.

You know his office, right?
Go there immediately.

Don't leave without the money.

Stapler.
- Are you busy?

That handycam isn't
charged fully, check it.

The contest that I mentioned,
for our film..

A distributor has come
to watch our film by himself.

The screening starts this evening.
So I have to be here.

That's why I can't come, okay?
Call me once you reach.

Don't leave without the money,
okay?

Okay, I'll talk to you later.

The documents are ready.

This is the second time.

How many times do I have to come for it?

Hey..

His phone is switched off.
You can only discuss this with him.

I don't know when he'll be back.
The office is closed today.

Can you come on Monday?
- No, I want it today.

Okay, wait outside.

Hello. - Ma'am?
- Tell me.

I'm calling from the day care.

Your baby is crying nonstop.
When will you be back?

Oh, no! I don't know,
I think it could take an hour.

Did you try giving her something?

She isn't eating anything.
I think she'll be fine if you come.

Try to come early.

And don't forget to bring
the monthly fee when you come.

Can you please adjust
for some more time?

I'll come as soon as I can, please?

Come soon.

Okay, thank you.

He's there, right? Are you sure?

Is that so?
When does the show end?

Hey, give me a minute.
Ma'am?

Do you know
where Mr. RK's office is?

Yeah. Why?

The producer is there right now.
You can meet him there.

Okay, thanks.
- Sorry..

Hello, did you get the money?

You mentioned a distributor
coming for the screening.

What is his name?
- Arunachalam. Why?

He is the one who owes me money.

Oh! Very good.
Come here immediately.

The movie will end in half an hour.
Make sure you reach before that.

Auto rickshaw!

We were friends
since the eighth grade.

He completed his studies.
I discontinued.

It was too late when
I realized my fault.

When I was clueless
about what to do

he bought me this auto rickshaw.

He's well to do.

Yet, he only loves to sketch.

I know. He didn't believe
a thing I said, did he?

That doesn't really matter.

You were going on and on
about the curse of Maya

and Mayavanam.
You scared us.

And now you are going there!

Why?
- I am a little scared.

But I should finish
the story that I started.

The last episode will
be out next week.

I have to research regarding that.

Is it about the diamond ring?
- No.

In the asylum

they used a stretcher to carry
the dead bodies for the burial.

It's still in the forest.

Everyone has a story about it.

It is said that at night

one can see a dead body on it
covered in white.

I want to see if it's true.

If it is, I want a photograph of it.

Mayavanam
3 km.

I don't have a phone. Be quick.
- It should be close.

I'll be back in ten minutes.

Never mind if the stretcher isn't there.

Make sure you find the ring.

We'll share it if you come along.

Sir, I don't feel that
you're here for a photograph.

Ka..

Ma..

L..

Sir?

Sir?

Mr. Madhan!

Mr. Madhan..

Mr. Madhan?

Mr. Madhan?

Mr. Madhan?

Mr. Madhan?

Mr. Madhan?

Mr. Madhan?

He's back home safely.

You don't have to be afraid.
Okay?

Stay with him.
Call me if needed. Okay?

Vasanth speaking!
What happened to Madhan?

Only if we meet him, we'll know
what happened last night.

I've been calling him since morning.
He isn't answering his phone.

I'll message you.
Hang up.

Shankar!
What could have happened?

I've been warning you
since the beginning.

Be careful now.

Why don't you go there tonight
and check for a corpse?

Even if it is there,
the spirit will be roaming around.

I'll take a picture for you.

Let me know after you check.
- Okay.

Madhan?
He doesn't talk to anyone.

He hardly steps out of the house.

Last week, something weird happened.

He was probably drunk.

He tried to jump off the terrace.

Fortunately, someone up there saved him.

Eight story's..

I would think twice to even take a peek.

Hello, tell me.

Brother!
- Why are you crying?

He is missing.
- What! Where has he gone?

I don't know.
His phone is at home.

Did you look around?

I searched everywhere.
He's nowhere to be found.

Okay, stop crying.
I'll come right away. Okay?

Don't worry! He should
be around somewhere..

Nobody would have anticipated
something like this.

Vasanth, please don't cry.
It's not your fault.

^You don't have to feel guilty.

What? - Something came up
at the office at the last minute.

You proceed.
I'll wait outside.

What? You'll wait outside!
Be there at nine.

At nine? It will be dark.
- Are you scared?

You got paid for this,
didn't you?

Finish the job.
It'll all be over tonight. Bye!

It's going to be okay.

It does look like a person.

You still don't believe
what I told you yesterday.

You and your friend have
made a huge mistake.

"An endless road of thorns.."

"Has any soul walked on it?"

"Come with me,
let's walk this endless road.."

"To find the answer..
That's beyond eternity."

"Has anyone ever seen it?"

"Has anyone succeeded?"

"Let's go like the root
that searches for water."

"Like the water that delves deeper."

"I ask my shadow..
Is this really me?"

"I open the gates
of this mysterious forest."

"All the quests.."

"Converge in me..
Come flying!"

"Now is the time."

"Thousands..
And thousands"

"of needs you search for.."

"You will sway around."

"When time
slips away from your hands."

"Wait till I rip your mask off."

"And end the screenplay I started."

"To explore the recesses"

"and remove the suspicions.."

"Come to me!"

"To unite with me"

"to know the mystery
that fills the darkness"

"to vanquish all confusions.."

"You come to me..
You come to me.."

"Thousands and thousands"

"of needs you search for."

"You will sway around."

"When time"

"slips away from your hands."

Swathi!
Swathi!

Maya!

I don't have your child.

Sir!

Move..
- Move!

Move..
Move!

Without any prior permission
or any medical assistance

^how can you run such contests?

^And you inform us after he dies!

^I guess he already suffered
from a medical condition.

^We asked him repeatedly
before he signed the agreement.

^He didn't say anything.
That's why we went ahead.

^As soon as his pulse rate
increased, we stopped the movie.

We also called citing
a medical emergency.

We informed his family.
What more can we do?

Let this be the last time.

You better be careful
the next time.

Come to the station tomorrow.

We have a few formalities left.

He was watching the movie
over and over again.

I think he is very disturbed.

He didn't even step out for dinner.

He already has a lot of problems.
And now this!

Nothing seems right.

There's been a lot of problems
right from the beginning.

Remember everything that went
wrong during the shoot!

I should definitely
talk to him about this.

I saw it, Rajasekar.
^I did.

^He was running away
from something in the dark.

^Before he died..
^Do you know what he said?

^There's no such scene in our movie.
How is it possible?

^I shot it. Won't I know?

^You met him three days ago.
How could he be in our movie?

You don't believe me.

I'll play the movie.

^Will you watch it alone?
- Find someone else to test.

Open the door! Darn it!
You promised to pay up today.

Then why are you hiding now?
Open the door.

You won't answer my calls!

You begged for money
when you needed it.

Open the door!

I said, open the door!

Did you check the second half?

I checked it completely.
Everything is fine.

It seems like it gets
stuck in a few places.

Check once again, will you?

Is there something
you're not telling us?

What's your problem now?
Look at it positively.

This incident could be a great
selling point for our movie.

We'll get free publicity
in all the newspapers tomorrow.

Answer the call!

Tell me.
- Where are you?

Office. What's the matter?

I want to watch your movie alone.

Tell Mr. RK and..
- Are you mad?

Don't you know
what happened to the producer?

Swathi, I have no other go.

Ask him if I can watch..
- Hang up and go to bed!

Bye!

I don't think it's safe to let her
watch the movie alone.

I thought that you'd
talk her out of it.

But you are asking me
to start the film right away.

If something happens,
who'll answer Arjun?

Did you see her child?

She's just a year old.
- No such thing will happen.

I understand your concern.

We are not using her
to check for ghosts.

She gets Rs. 0.5 million
at the end of the movie.

The movie gets publicity

and she desperately needs
that money. Think about it.

Money is always useful, but..
- She is important to me too.

I decided when she
performed in the audition

that she will play
the lead role in my next film.

I just didn't tell you that.

I'll sort things out
between her and Arjun. I promise.

If there's any problem,
I'll get her out myself.

Understand?
- Still, please think about it..

Just hear me out once
and then decide!

Look! I don't know if
you've watched these movies.

All these movies faced several problems

from the shoot to the date of release.

Not just small accidents
at the shooting spot

some lead actors and
technicians have even died.

Look at this.
The film, Poltergeist!

The four lead actors in the movie

died within a few years
of the film's release.

Not even one death was natural.

And this girl was murdered.

There's even a documentary about this.

What's the relation
between that and our film?

It is related.

In an important scene,
they used a skeleton as a property.

It was not artificial,
they used a real skeleton.

They say that this was the reason
behind the film's curse.

Why are you telling me
all this now?

Usually, we don't even
go near graveyards.

Yet we shot a whole film there.

The art director suggested
to put up a set.

You didn't listen to him.

Since then there have
been many problems.

Your arm was fractured.

You might not believe it
but if you think..

We shot there for three weeks.
Where was the ghost then?

It isn't too late yet.

I'll somehow get
the money you need.

We'll also talk to Arjun.
Come with me.

Take care.

Have you heard of Bloody Mary?

Blackberry?

Like in the English horror films

if you stand in front of a mirror
and say Bloody Mary thrice

a ghost appears.

Haven't you seen it?
- No time for that.

Only she watches it.

Don't you believe in it?

I don't know. Why?
- Okay, drop your card.

Yesterday, the editor
had mailed a story.

A ghost story.

I started sketching
as soon as I read it.

Last night, exactly
5 minutes before 12

suddenly there was
a strange odor in my room.

Don't you smell
something strange?

But there was one patient
they all remembered..

Maya.
Maya Matthews!

The protagonist of my story.

She was from a wealthy family.

She fell in love and married
without her family's consent.

On her first wedding anniversary,
she learned two things.

One! She was pregnant.

Two!
Her husband had an affair.

That night her husband died.

His food contained poison.

Since the day of her admission

she never uttered
a word to anyone.

She confined herself to her room
and kept writing in a diary.

She delivered a baby
eight months later.

She started bonding,
only with her kid.

But a week later, the baby was
taken away from her.

Hey!

Mr. Madhan!

Mr. Madhan!

Mr. Madhan!

What is happening here?
Inform Arjun.

I told you not to.
You should have listened!

Look what has happened!
Call him up!

I lied to you.

Arunachalam didn't die
of a heart attack. - Then?

His pulse rate started increasing
while he was watching the film.

Sir..
Let's stop digging and leave.

We don't need the ring.

^After everything
that has happened

^aren't you still convinced?

This week alone

two people have died.

Don't be scared.

We've been digging for a month.

If we had to die, we would
have been dead by now.

^Open it.

Sir, there are only
skeletons here as well.

Check properly
if there is anything.

Did you find anything?

^Nothing.
- Search properly.

I've been searching
for a month. Won't I know?

This is not the one.

^Drat.

Don't move.

Check his camera.

How did you find this place?

Well?
Are you following me?

Are you alone? Or have
you brought Anjali along?

Well? Do you still fancy her?
- Listen to me, Ram.

Hey!
- It's not what you think.

Who is it?

Hey, who is that?

I don't know.

Hey!
Who are you?

What are you doing here?

Kathy!
Just wait!

I'll deal with you once
I'm done with my work.

Answer the phone.

Put it on loudspeaker.

It's my wife, you can answer it.

Stop acting smart.

Hello, Vasanth!

Many more happy
returns of the day.

Hello?

Okay.

Okay?

I understand that you
are very disturbed.

At least talk to me today
like old times. Please?

Can't I expect
at least this much from you?

Hello?

Hello, are you still there?

Say some..

Well?

Is it your birthday?

You didn't tell me.

Shall we cut..

A cake.

I had an inkling when she
mentioned you the other day.

You were holding hands
with her in the coffee shop.

Are you using your friend's death
to gain her sympathy?

Why do you chase someone
who is already taken?

It's not what you think it is.

Understand that.
- Then?

Are you trying to say that
you're like her brother? - Ram..

Stop talking like an idiot.

Ram, listen to me.

Stop imagining things.

Anjali came only to console me.

Inside.. Inside..

What happened?

There's something inside.

Come here, open it.

I can't.

Do you want me to die?
- You..

You! Come on.

Get in.

I said, get in!
Get in!

Open it.
Open it!

What are you looking at?
Open it.

Here, open it.

I said, open it.

What are you looking at?
Open it.

Sir, how is it empty?

We heard something, didn't we?

Lift it.

I said, get in!
Don't be a chicken.

Lift it.

Keep it here.

Come here!

Here, hold it.
Take him away.

Kathy, come here.

I think, we have found
the right coffin.

Are you sure?

It should be here.

This is the diary Madhan
was talking about, right?

Yes, Ram! Yes.

Come on..

Look!

Help!

Thank you for calling.
Please leave a message.

Sir, I'm waiting outside another gate.

Settle the money quickly.

Sir, you know the risks
I've taken for you this month.

I'm not able to face anyone
from the department.

Come fast, you might
have to pay extra.

Come quick, please.

I wonder if he'll show up.

Darn!

Darn!

Do you have a phone?

How did you get here?

I'll lift you up. Climb up
and get out of here somehow.

Get up.

Don't hesitate.
Please come.

Climb!

Careful!

Hold tight.

Don't bother about me.
I'll climb up somehow.

Please leave this place immediately.

Don't waste time, leave now.

Meera?

Meera?

I shall

come back..

I shall

come back..

"You are all"

"I have."

"The bond of motherhood unites us."

Mother..
- "Is life a symphony"

"of pain?"

"Your presence"

"takes painful memories away."

"Come, sail across the ocean.."

"Come over as a full moon."

"My life."

"I"

"will come.."

"Don't be sad"

"my dear."

"My longstanding dream."

"You are my soul."

"You are all"

"I have."

"The bond of motherhood
unites us."

"That which blossoms
amidst storms.."

"It is life."

"For today"

"I forget my pain."

"The sorrow of the trees"

"undone by flowers."

"My life."

Everything that has happened
feels like a dream to me.

After all these years

the doll and the diary have
reached the right person.

But the ring is missing.

Wasn't it buried in the cemetery?

No. At first even I thought so.

The relative who admitted her

to the asylum has it.

He dumped her in the asylum
and took the ring.

Do you know who it was?

The guy who didn't pay you..
The producer, Arunachalam.

He had come to check if there's
anything about him in the movie.

RK learnt about this and told me.

Even though the movie,
Irul, has been completed

I haven't told Maya's story entirely.

I will make another film

based on the remaining story.

It will be the prequel to Irul.

The film's title will be

Irul Soozhum.

When Arunachalam died

he died with the ring.

But even RK does not know
what happened to it.

We will find it.

Don't worry.

It's not necessary.
- Why?

It's not necessary. - We will
release both the films together.

We have started working on it.

Maya's character in this film

will be played
by the debutant, Apsara.

There's a special reason
why she is doing it.

She will be giving life to her
late mother's character.

^Irul Soozhum - First day shoot
at Mayavanam.

Swathi, come in. Where are you?
Where is the ring?

Sir is asking for it.
- Yeah, I'm coming up. - Quick.

Why are you so slow? Faster.
- Okay.

What is it, Swathi? New heroine?

Why do you hide her from us?
- Stop it, I'm already tense.

Mister, what happened?
- Go.. - Did you get it?

Oh.. I've sent Praveen, he'll be
here. - You've sent him!

It takes an hour just
to get out of this place.

How will he get it?

The first shot is in ten minutes.
What do I tell sir? - Rajasekar. - Sir?

There is a need for more
darkness. - Okay, sir.

A little darker
behind the wheelchair.

Tell them to do it quickly.

How long since I asked for it?

Hey, dude.
- What are you doing there?

You come here..

You scared me!
Can't you turn around?

I'm telling you something.
Are you deaf? - Sir!

A small problem.

Don't say it.

The ring that has been made
for Maya is missing.

Kathiresan just said so. I even
reminded him on the phone.

Shall we call someone
or do something?

Go.

Okay, sir! I'll arrange for
something in 10-15 minutes.

Rakesh, where are you?

Hey, it's dark there.

I'm filled with thoughts about my mom.

I'm not able to concentrate.

See, don't lose your confidence.

You are the apt person for this.

Okay?
I know it's painful.

Do you think I should do it?

Do it, everything will be fine.

Be brave. Okay? - Hey. The shot
will be ready in five minutes.

You're ready, right?

All the best, do well.

Sir is looking for you.
Come, let's go.

My name is Maya.

Maya Matthews.
