Sankranti Special!!! Get in, get in!!!

Ticket prices have skyrocketed for
Sankranti.

Buses are also insufficient.

No seats. Check some other bus.

Please wait there. We are reaching.

Your Attention Please!
train number 17016...

Hyderabad to Visakhapatnam Sankranthi Special
Express has arrived on Platform Number 2.

You are listening to ‘Madi Madilo Hyderabad City”

Say FM and it is only Radio
City 91.1 and this is RJ Sunita.

Our city roads looked like a moving
ocean with unending traffic till now.

And then boom comes the
festival with all its festivity.

Bus stations and railway
stations are packed with people.

But from tomorrow we can happily
play cricket on Hyderabad roads!

We deserve to celebrate
this mood with a song, right?

Keep listening to ‘Madi Madilo Hyderabad City”
Think of FM and think of Radio City 91.1

Your Radio City with Sunita.

Why are you up so early, Kesava?

My son’s coming from the city.

Ohh!

Hey, Subbarao.

What’s up, Kesava? Is your son coming home?

Yes, he is.

I can sense the vibes
of our village, uncle.

We’re almost there.

Anyhow, it feels great to
go to the city for a livelihood…

and then come back to your hometown.

Of course.

We’re going to eat and
drink till we drop these 4 days.

We have the whole
year to eat and get drunk.

But, we only get these 4 days
to spend with our loved ones.

Let’s make it fun!

Hmm!

Anantharajugaripuram!

What is this?
- Dad!

Why are you sitting on top? Get down.
- Ok.

He was sitting on the top.
-I know.

Why did you climb up at this age?

There was no space down.

Hey, precious!
- So let’s meet again.

Hey, Seshagiri. You don’t
have crops in the village anymore.

What brings you here?

Aren’t I allowed otherwise?
I’m here to visit sir.

Oh.

What’s up with you?

He does all your stuff for you, right?

Why are you cleaning this?

My fate has changed
since this came into my life.

I won’t let anybody get their hands on it.

Dear…
- Yeah, Coming.

[humming]

What’s the story with this cycle?

Brother-in-law rode the
same bicycle in the past and…

‘Cotton candy! Cotton candy!’

How much cotton candy do
I have to sell to be this rich?

Hey, Cotton candy guy!

[old romantic song playing]

Cotton candy, please.

Wow!

I’ve never eaten such sweet cotton candy.

Really?

Even I’ve never come
across someone so cute.

Really?
- Hmm.

I swear on my cotton candy.
- How much is it?

It’s worth your smile.

Stop it!

He flattered my sister
with his cotton candy.

They fell in love and were getting married.

Call it his fortune or
my sister’s misfortune.

Mr. Anantharaju passed
away soon after the wedding.

The whole village was sobbing.

But, brother-in-law
had a smile on his face.

He rushed to the locker and opened it.

All the asset documents were missing.

Sir, you’ve donated us your fields.

You’ve given us new lives.

That’s when he realized that Mr. Anantharaju
had donated all his assets to the villagers.

Thereafter, the villagers called this
place Anantharajupuram in his honor.

Though he lost all the assets…

He held on to his hope and made good money.

Still, he’s referred to as…

Look. That’s Mr. Anantharaju’s son-in-law.
- Is it?

Hey, son-in-law of Mr. Anantharaju…

Hello.

As his identity was limited to
being the son-in-law of Mr. Raju…

He lost his cool and…

And?

He loans money to the
villagers to begin with…

and seizes their assets illegally later on.

He wishes to seize the assets
of everybody in the village…

and name the village after
himself, Ekambarapuram.

Now I get why he slapped me earlier.

Hey, son-in-law of Mr. Anantharaju.

Of course, he slapped you.

Keep this for now.

I’ll arrange the rest soon.

Bro, should I put the
pickle jar in your blue bag?

No, not that bag.

Here.

Put it in this.

She needs more of that beating.

Actually, you deserve it.

I don’t need all this.

It’s okay. Take it. Tastes nice.

Did you tell him about the
marriage alliance for Bujji?

He’s still paying the
loans that I’ve taken.

Wedding would be a burden.

- Okay. You take care.

Don’t mention it to him.

Less mischief, okay?

See you, mom.
- See you.

Bye.
- Bye.

Greeting!

Don’t say a word.

You visit us briefly like some guest.

Can’t help it
City life is hectic.

Whatever.

What? Are you also leaving, Shanta?

He’s taking me along to the city.
- Nice.

You’re doing the right thing, boy.
- It's my responsibility uncle.

What have you been up to, Ramana?

I’m the Supervisor of a huge building.

I have 20-30 employees working for me.

What more could I ask for?
What say?

Greeting sir.

Greeting..
- I went to your house, sir.

They said you were here.

Your interest money…
- Hey!

You need to pay a hell of lot of
interest to clear your initial interest.

Let it be.

No, listen.

We can sort it out later.

Bus is here. Go.

Thank you, sir.

You give 10 bucks and loot 10 folds.

Bus has arrived. Go.

If we get in now, we
can catch the train in time.

Families can’t bid farewell.

The guys can’t leave home either.

They can’t help it.

They should stay away to save their fields.

Hey. Stop the bus.

Stop the bus.
- Stop the bus.

Hold on!

Go. Go. Quick.
- Bye, uncle.

See you, dad.
- Take care.

See you, guys.

Okay..

Hey!
- Ma’am?

Take a close shot.
- Okay, ma’am.

Did you take a wide angle?

Okay?
- Okay ma'am.

Take a look.

Wow! You look amazing, Chaitra.

Why is she so hyper in the morning?

Karthik hasn’t seen me in a couple of days.

He must be missing me like crazy.

I thought I’d surprise
him with these pictures.

Send them to my mobile, okay?
- Yes, ma’am. I’ll send it.

There’s no point in doing so much.

You said he’s your super senior
And you’ve been in love since college.

You’re crazy about him.

But, has he ever given you any attention?

No!

Has he at least smiled at you?

No!

Okay, we’ll let that go
There’s no effort from his side.

But in all these years, have
you ever had coffee with him? - No!

You brainless fellows! Listen up.

Guys go after girls.

We don’t give a crap though we like him.

‘Cause we enjoy the attention.

Maybe my guy is also enjoying my attention.

Wait and watch.

I’ll send my pictures and
also have coffee with him.

Okay? Sent.

Bah! She’s back to torture me.
- Who? Chaitra?

Hmm.

Bro, I think the only way to
stop her is for you to say yes.

Shut up. Let’s go.

Creatures are dying because
of the plastic in the ocean.

Aquatic life and earth
cycle is being damaged.

Using satellite…

We can trace out the exact location of
plastic in the ocean and clean them out.

Well, as you can see, to clear
the ocean of all the plastic…

I’ve been waiting for this kind
of opportunity for many years.

We will collaborate with
Fortune 500 companies.

I know, I know the time is too
less to execute this kind of a project.

Karthik…
- Sir.

I’d like you to take the
lead on this project, please.

Sure, sir. I’ll do my best.

Karthik will kill you if he sees that
you’re killing time in the cafeteria. - True.

Cafeteria is meant for killing time.

Oh!

But from tomorrow, we
won’t have the leisure.

Just got the mail.

Do you think we can meet the deadline?

Man, projects and deadlines are our thing.

Okay. I’ll be on it.

That project is sorted.

What about this pending project?

Pending project? Whoa! Ma’am!

Damn! She’s here.

Oi! What are you doing here?

I’ve sent you pictures. No reply from you.

You’ve taken care of me. Now it’s my turn.

That is why I’m here.

I told you she won’t
back off till you say yes.

Of course.

Do you know how tough
it was to come inside?

Let’s have coffee?

Coffee, please.

Guys, will you have coffee with
us or shall I change the team?

No. No. Coming. Coming.

Talk to him. Let us go.
- Why don’t you stay?

Getting a coffee date
with Karthik isn’t easy.

What could be so hard?

Hey! What are you doing here?

Isn’t it obvious?

I mean, you’re buying veggies.

Aren’t I allowed to?

Do you cook as well?

He cooks amazingly well.

Chaitra, you’re so lucky!
- Why?

A girl is damn lucky if her
husband is a good cook.

Whoa!

Why don’t you marry a chef then?

I guess you eat a lot of spice.

You seem all fired up.

Have a carrot, Karthik.
It’s good for your eyes.

Maybe then you’ll see how beautiful I am.

I can see how crazy you
are ‘cause I’m eating this.

Bro, shall I get a wood apple?
- Sure. It’s good for the ears.

Maybe then you’ll hear
my heartbeat loudly.

My senses are just fine.

It’s your brain that’s screwed.

Well said.

That’s what my mom says.

In my case, my dad also says the same.
- Oh!

Hmm.

Ohh!

Me and my brain are special.
- Totally forgot about the coffee.

Coffee...., please.
- Go away.

Coffee…

Please.

One Coffee..please.
- No.

Let’s bring our daughter
home for delivery on a good day.

Sure, dear.

We were just thinking
of you and you’re here.

Why did you come alone? Where’s son-in-law?

Why are you quiet?

You promised something fancy as dowry.

He asked me to get our land
documents along with the baby this time.

What do we do, dear?

Let me think.

I asked Raghu for some money.

He said he’d help.

Look, something’s on fire.

What have you done?

I’d rather destroy the
whole thing than sell it.

You haven’t eaten in 2 days. Have some.

I don’t know. Life seems so terrifying.

I’d die. But I’m worried about you guys.

Please don’t say that.

I knew you’d say that.

You burned the crop
‘cause it wasn’t fruitful.

Why would you torture your body though?

Here.

Take it.

You’re so stubborn.

Why don’t you sell that crop to me?

It’s half destroyed.

Yeah, brother-in-law.

Why would you want to buy that?

Do you have a better idea?

I can’t watch him ruin everything.

I must do something.

He’s going through a tough phase.

My land documents.

Keep them.

You have great self-respect.

I can’t accept those. Give it to him.

Take it.

Take it.

You have a really big heart.

We’ve only heard about your father-in-law.

Seeing you today, it’s
like we’re seeing him.

Let’s go.

I can’t make them forget my
father-in-law no matter what I do.

Give me that.

Ask the MRO to check the land details.

We want everything in our name.
- Sure, brother-in-law.

It’s not a matter of days.

I’ve been trying to
impress you since one year.

Why wouldn’t he like me?

You look so beautiful!

What’s the problem?

Think deeply. You’ll see it.

What’s the problem?

Hey, crazy girl! I asked
you to think. Not yell.

Why is everybody gathered here?

What’s wrong?
- Ravi’s been fired.

He submitted fake experience certificates.

Moreover, you know our boss can be a jerk.

Where is he?

Over there.

Poor guy! He’s really nervous.

Guys like him bring ill
reputation to our company.

You’re right, sir.

His credentials are all fine.

But, why did he submit fake certificates?

How am I supposed to know?
- By giving him a chance, sir.

Do you know the loopholes
in our software company?

You don’t get a job
unless you’re experienced.

You don’t gain experience
unless you have a job.

You can’t enter this loop
unless there’s some miracle.

Maybe he didn’t stand a chance.

Are you saying he did the right thing?

I’m talking about the situation, sir.

For example, we
released a project recently.

He did most of the work there.

If you don’t mind, I want
to tell you something.

You trusted a piece of paper and
be brought great reputation to us.

Imagine what he’d achieve
if you actually trusted him.

Give it a thought.

See you, sir.

Hey!

Yeah, Ravi?

I don’t know what to say or how to say it.

With my current degree,

I always felt insecure about my future.

I thought about it from your perspective.

I felt insecure too.

You handed my future to me.

Thank you!

Hey, come on!

Cool down.

Friends not only make you happy.

They also make you feel secure.

Stop getting so emotional.

Alright.
- Let’s go and chill.

Hey, I’ve got urgent work. Move.

This is also urgent.

What is?

Marriage.
- Then get married.

What should I do to make
you fall in love with me?

Let me ask you this instead.

What should I do for you
to leave me alone? Tell me.

No matter what, there’s no
way I’m leaving you alone.

No way in hell!

Life sucks, man
There’s always some problem or the other.

First, it was getting through school
Then, it was getting a job.

Now, it’s marriage.

There’s only one solution
to all these problems.

Who is it?

My mother.
- Regarding?

Love recommendation.

Come on, auntie.

You can’t take that crazy girl seriously.

What’s wrong, son?
- One second.

Guys, it’s personal
Let’s get out of here.

Why did you come at this hour?

On top of that, you
brought your mother along.

What’s the matter?

Why don’t you love my daughter?
What’s the problem?

What’s the problem?

No problem
I don’t mind being your friend.

That’s great.

Yeah, great.

Life is beautiful if you
marry your best friend.

Your uncle and I were also good friends.

We got married later on.

Life is amazing now.
- Really amazing.

It’s not that, auntie.
- What is it then?

A financial issue?

We’ve also worked hard to
reach where we are today.

Mommy, you can leave now.

No, listen.
- Chaitra wants you to leave. Go!

Whatever. Idiot...

Are you out of your mind?
Why would you bring your mother?

Karthik, I really like you.

My family is looking
for a prospective groom.

But, I don’t feel this
way about anybody else.

I don’t belong to the family of people
who threaten their love interests.

But, I’m confident that I’d be
really happy with you in my life.

Ultimately, it’s your decision.

Yay! Congratulations!
What is this??

Excuse me!...
- Party.

I’m really proud of you, Karthik.

Why, sir?
- Karthik is the Employee of the Year.

Guys… Guys… I have another good news.

You’re going to be the
Manager of our US branch.

That’s amazing!
- Take me along, dude.

So…I think it calls for a celebration.

Let’s celebrate tonight.

Hey, Swarna. What are you thinking about?

I’m wondering how he’s playing.

Why are you straining yourself? Just chill.

What’s up, guys? What are you doing?

Always drinking!

You don’t workout or diet.

I’ll start tomorrow.
- Hello. Phone.

Answer it. Can’t miss the call.

I was eavesdropping last night.

Yeah? Mind your business.

Okay.

Hello.

Karthik, where are you?

Outside.

Daddy wants to talk to you.

First, it was your mom
Now your dad wants to talk.

Won’t you leave me alone?
Alright. I’ll come to him.

What?! Really?!

I didn’t expect this.

See you first thing in the
morning tomorrow, okay?

Okay, bye.

I see new promotions happening
and new feelings taking bloom.

Nothing like that.

Hey!..

I swear there’s nothing.

Hey, one second.

Is it a secret?

It’s dad.

Oh!

Yes, dad?

what are you doing?

Nothing. At a small party.

Actually, I was going to call you.

What are you doing?

I’m at home.

So, listen. I got the money.

I’ve had a satisfying meal after so long.

This whole time, I was worried
about some loan shark barging in.

I don’t have that fear anymore.

Dad…

Huh?

What is it?

Are you fine with whatever
decision I take at this point?

Of course, son.

If you were irresponsible,
I’d have hesitated.

But I’m sure you’ll never do wrong.

Okay, dad. Bye.

Alright.

What a father-son duo! Just perfect!

He intimates you before doing anything.

You accept everything that he does.

Of course my son tells me everything.

He seeks my approval.

Sweet! Such cuties, you and your son.

Dear, we’re looking for a
marriage alliance for Bujji anyway.

Let’s find a prospective
bride for him as well.

I’m on it.

The neighboring Village Head is
looking at our son for his daughter.

I’ll talk to him next time we meet.

Harsha MBBS weds Vidya MBBS.

Sounds nice.
- Hi.

You’re a doctor and so
are your wife and son.

And your future
daughter-in-law is also a doctor.

Your house is going to be
like a multi-specialty hospital.

I should invite a lot of
other guests. See you.

You should definitely come.
- Sure. Thank you.

Hey, Karthik!
- Hi.

So good to see you.

Good to see you too.
- So glad you came. Come. Come.

Sit down.

Hi, Karthik.

Hi, auntie.

So, what will you have?
Tea, coffee or juice?

I’m good, uncle.
- I guess he’s shy.

Get everything. He’ll take what he likes.

Karthik, I’m not shy like you.

So I’ll come straight to the point.

Chaitra really loves you.

I’m guessing you know that too.

Once we know your opinion,
we can probably take it further.

To be honest,

I like her too.

That’s great. Are you happy?

So, Karthik. I’d love to talk to
your parents about the wedding.

And at the same time, I’ll hand
over all my companies to you…

Go to some far off place and relax.

Thanks, uncle.

But, I have
some other plans.

Oh, really?
- Yeah.

What do you want to do?

I want to take up farming.

What?!

Are you kidding?

No, uncle. I want to do farming.

What are you talking, Karthik?

Do you get what you’re saying?

You belong on the red carpet.

Why do you want to walk in mud?

You should receive many more
Employee of the Year mementos.

Actually, no. You’ve reached a
level where you give out mementos.

Why do you want to move backwards in life?

Don’t you think it’s foolish?

Uncle, you were talking
to somebody earlier.

I’m guessing an old friend.

He’s a doctor.

He made his son become a doctor.

You’re an Engineer.

You made your daughter one too.

Uncle,

Hero is passing on his legacy to his son.

Doctor is passing on his legacy to his son.

But, a farmer...

..is not shaping his son into a farmer.

I believe we should pass our profession
to our heirs for them to be successful.

Why don’t you find an alternative?
For Chaitra’s sake.

No, uncle.

This is the reason I didn’t
express my true feelings for Chaitra.

Why is the tea so light?

Uncle.

Hey! What are you doing here?

I should ask you that.

I told you I work as a
Supervisor for buildings.

Look. This is my project.

Great!

Isn’t it great to meet someone
from your hometown in the city?

True. We haven’t met in so long.

We could sit and talk.
But I’m kind of busy.

They don’t work unless I’m watching.

No worries.
- Let’s talk once I’m off duty.

Alright See you, Send my best to aunt.
- See you.

I should’ve taken his number.

Stop talking and work.

Excuse me. Where can I find the Supervisor?

I’m the Supervisor. What do you want?

But, uncle…

Ramana…

Oh, Venkata Ramana?
He must be unloading the material. Go look.

You focus on work.
Don’t get distracted.

What is this, uncle?

You know how it is.

We took loans and did farming.

Hoping the crop would make us money.

But it shattered our lives.

I have to do something to feed the family.

Why don’t you find a job back home?

What job?

I can’t work as labor in the
same place I once flourished in.

I’m toiling in silence
to earn a livelihood.

Son, get going.

Aunt will feel embarrassed if she sees you.

No matter how tough it gets,
remember that I’m always here.

Ramana!

Coming!
- Why aren’t you working?

Son,

Your job earns you respect
That respect earns you attention.

Don’t tell anybody back home.

Brother-in-law…

The MRO is here.

Why don’t you say something?

I’ve only taken documents
from people till now.

But that guy Kesava took
documents from me after so long.

It’s the doing of his son.

He’s sending him money from the city.

Don’t you worry.

I’ve gone through all the accounts.

Just wait for a year.

You can seize all their lands in
exchange for the interest on the loan.

Chalapathy, my son is going to America.

Oh, is it?

Tell Malli as well.

Hey, monkey!
- Bro!!!

It’s so heavy.

Mom, brother is here.
- How are you, son?

Yeah. I’ll call you back.

Your dad would’ve received
you if we knew you were coming.

It’s okay.

Your dad is overwhelmed.

He’s been telling everybody
that you’re going to America.

He must be starving.
Get him some food.

Come on.

Have some more.

Enough.
- Here. Water.

Hey, get me an iPod, a MacBook and
tons of makeup when you go to the US.

When are you leaving to the US, son?

I don’t want to go, dad.

I know you can’t leave us and go that far.

But when you get an
opportunity to grow, don’t lose it.

I want to stay back and do farming.

Farming?

Why would you want to do that?

Why would you say that, dad?

Grandpa was into farming and so were you.

I want to take it up now.

You always say that our
occupation should give us joy.

Farming doesn’t give you joy.

It only gives you trouble,
losses and a hell lot of stress.

If I wanted you to do farming,
I’d have taken you to the fields.

Why would I work hard
to get you an education?

It’ll be great if a literate
gets into farming.

What the hell!

Our lives are just getting better
and it’s surely not due to farming.

It’s all thanks to your job.

Get back to your job.

I quit.

What?!

What is he saying?

People are struggling to
get a job and he quit his?

I was recently thinking
that my bad days are over.

Don’t bring them back, please.

What’s happening, bro?

Uncle, I heard your son is in town.

Whoa! You’re serious!

Why does your dad look so serious?

It’s nothing. Let’s go.

I thought maybe you
must’ve brought a girl home.

Ohh!

When did aunt come home?

Been a couple of days.

She told her son that she
couldn’t stay there anymore.

Anyhow, when are you going to the US?

Kesava, you’re a lucky man.

You worked hard to provide
education to your son.

He’s going overseas now.

Tell me.

Aunt has fainted feeling breathless.

I'm Feeling anxious about it.

We are taking her to
the hospital. Come soon.

I’ll be there.

No. Keep it.

Sir!

Sorry, Sir. I was slightly
busy and didn’t notice, Sir.

Sir! Ok, Sir.

I will deliver it in the morning, Sir.

Sir…ok, Sir.

Hey, please request
aunt to take care of mom.

Keep this.

What do you mean,
brother-in-law? Are you leaving?

I have to, man. I have a lot of work.

When do you not have work?

Why don’t you stay for a couple
of days and look after your mom?

Do you think I wouldn’t like to do that?

That’s why I took mom to the city.

But she couldn’t adjust there.

She was after my life until
I brought her back here.

We can’t blame her, bro.
She is used to life here.

I thought I could look
after mom well, if I got a job.

But once I got it, I am unable
to do anything except my job.

Mom is not able to stay there and
I am not able to find any work here.

This bloody life! Our lives
have become meaningless.

Here, take this.

Very sad! It’s the same
story with everyone.

They are not able to survive
unless they leave the village.

And those who live here?

They don’t even have a shoulder to cry on.

If you take a good look,
you will find no one happy.

Sad, brother-in-law!

The village is in a bad
condition just like aunt.

Karthik!

How many times should I call you?

Why are you not answering the phone?

You simply left me behind!

Why are you silent?

Obey my Dad at least
till we get married, Karthik.

After that, do as you wish.

I am talking to you, Karthik!

Hey!

Rey!

What are you doing?
- Have you gone mad?

Why are you acting crazy like this?

Please look for it there.

Chaitra!

It’s not here.
- Not there. Over there!

Chaitra!

It’s just an object.

You are so restless for a missing object.

Here, the people I grew
up with have gone missing.

By the way,

why do you love me?

I am very fond of you.

Yeah, but why?

I like your character.

Character?

Do you know its origin?

This village.

The people I grew up with.

If someone stepped into her house,
my aunt would never send them hungry.

I learnt giving from her.

My Uncle Ramana used to say,

“Bear your own suffering
but share your joy.”

I learnt the value of
suffering and joy from him.

Such a great man is
working for daily wages now.

He has become a daily worker.

Everyone is in the same situation.

I came here only for festivals and thought
the village was always in festivity.

I know the truth now.

Locked doors on one hand and anticipating
old people sitting on the other.

Can you guess what they
are waiting for, Chaitra?

Either a festival or a funeral.

Because the kids don’t come back
except on these two occasions.

They don’t.

Tell me now.

Shall I desert the village and the people
who shaped my character and go my way?

I never saw tears in your eyes, Karthik.

I see them now and I
don’t know what to say.

Here!

Why do you say that?

Why did you come here in the first place?

To take up farming.

I thought those who migrated
from here were living comfortably.

But they are doing odd jobs for survival.

I thought it was enough
if I took up farming alone.

But no….
Call everyone back.

Hey, Karthik! Out of the blue,
you asked everyone to come.

They are all here seated.

Now that they are here, you
have become quiet as a lamb.

What is the matter?

Why was this village formed, Uncle?

To stay together and to
partake in each other’s difficulties.

Then why are you severing that bond now?

Who would like to sever bonds, son?

But there is no other option.

Who said there is no option, Uncle?

If we believe that we will get stuck here.

Hey, Karhtik!

What is your point? Shoot it straight.

Nothing much, Uncle. Let us all
stay here and get back to agriculture.

You sound like eggs
trying to teach the hen.

First of all, what do you
know about agriculture, huh?

Water but no seeds. Seeds but no power
Power but no manure.

Yet when we do manage
to raise a crop, no market!

Bloody hell! Farming has become a gamble.

Do you expect us to come
back and gamble again?

Weren’t we successful 25 years ago?

You may be right, son.
Everything was fine then.

But circumstances have
drastically changed now.

That’s exactly what I am saying.

Circumstances have
changed and so should we.

Hello...

Forget the circumstances and systems
First, you got to change.

There are enough dead
bodies in the village.

Do you want to call the
others here and kill more?

Hey, wait man!

Why don’t you let the youngster speak?

Didn’t you say you must
adapt to the situation?

As if you are not aware of their situation!

You went away to work and
settle the debts of your family.

But they also have their
commitments and responsibilities.

On what basis can they return?

Brother-in-law asked you
a question. Answer him.

This is next to impossible!
Let’s go.

Yes, move. Move!

Uncle! Wait a minute. Just a minute.
- Go!...

Only one minute!

If your responsibilities
are the only obstacle,

I am ready to pay you salary
as much as you earn in the city.

Will you come and work here?

You don’t have to work even
a minute longer than 8 hours.

You are not at all
concerned with profit or loss.

I will bear everything.

Hey, Karthik! Why do
you want to risk so much?

You used to say something
when I was a child.

Damn this government job! It is
not greater than my four acre land.

It used to sound so
good to hear you say that.

I want to see the same pride and the same
haughtiness in you and in each one of you.

Let us work on nothing
but a path of success.

Strands are woven into a rope. Bricks line
up a house and we together make a village.

Say yes and we shall
launch it today itself.

Sounds good, son.

But we should always
be prepared for the worst.

We must consider pros and cons too.

What if there is no profit? Just in case?

No chance, Uncle. I have calculated…

What I mean to say is…

You have no experience.

If you run into losses,

how long can you pay them salaries?

Three months? Six months? A year?

After that?
You will get back to your job.

But what about them?

Ha! Shall we go waste?
- Reply.

He asked you a valid question.

I ask you to trust me just once.

Hey, it is only out of trust that we came so
far as soon as you called without a question.

We have neither the years nor the
strength to hope and then face despair.

I beg you. Just leave us alone.

It’s not that, Uncle.
- Let us go, man.

Let us go.
It has been a waste of travel charges.

When a candy floss seller became
the son-in-law of a rich family,

I thought it was his luck.

When he wanted to own all the fields
and rename the village as Ekambarapuram,

I thought my brother-in-law was crazy.

But it was only last night that I realized.

You are neither lucky nor crazy.

You are shrewd, brother-in-law!

I was mad when even as his
dad collected the papers from me.

When you call the whole village
and ask them to stay put here…

I don't like making enemies, man.

Why would I tolerate when
someone tries to challenge me?

What's wrong?

I don't like it when you are dull
I just don't like it.

Kiddo, just remember one thing in life.

Everything comes with options.

You should just let it go.

Ok, Dad. I just want to go out.

Sure, go. Who is stopping you?

Hmm!

Ok? That's like my girl. Come here.

Hey! Have you informed the
farm workers from the other village?

I am on the same job.

Son-in-law!

We have thought deeply about what you said.

This is a job we are well versed with.

And it is a job we had done earlier.

So why fear?

It's not about the money you gave.

It's for the courage you
instilled that we felt like coming.

Instead of staying idle in the village,
let us join you be active in the fields.

Just tell us what to do.

Joint agriculture.

Joint agriculture.

Joint agriculture?
-Yes, bro.

Unity is strength.

That's why let us forget
the property boundaries.

Let us consider this as
our joint farm and work.

It sounds nice. But what is the advantage?

Your crop yield may be high
but may not attract high price.

His crop yield may be less
but may have huge margins.

When we choose cooperative farming,
we can balance the loss and profit.

Not only that…we have been rotating
the same crops for generations.

Let us change that.

We will raise them only on 20% of land.

We shall raise new crops
on the remaining 80%.

I have five acres.

It is totally useless.

No land is useless, uncle.

They raise crops in the desert these days.

Let us test the soil.

Let us rotate the crops
as per season and soil.

Let us use novel technology.

Let us make new trials.

We have only targeted
the local market so far.

But now let us tap the global market too.

Let us keep our land and tools busy...

...and bring home the yield
throughout the year without a break.

Let us all be a group.

When you wager alone, it is gambling.

In a group, it becomes a war.

We won kingdoms when we fought together.

We can win agriculture too.

And we will.

The only time I saw these many cows
was when I was still roaming in underpants.

Why talk about your underpants now?
Go check the fodder for the cattle.

Ok.
-Get going.

Carry on.
-Ravi!

Hey.
-Hmm.

Where did you get all these cows from?
-He got them from somewhere.

He says this one gives not
less than 15 liters of milk.

Fifteen?!
-Yo! Don't go near!

Oh God!

Get going! Move!

What is the need for all these now?

Animals are as important
on a farm as the crop, uncle.

If you could figure out what
is necessary and what is not,

you would be in America by now.

Anyway, I guess this is your destiny.

I will invest money. Set
up a business for yourself.

I will help you myself!

I like this work, uncle.

But I don't.

Huh?

I feel bad when
you undertake such jobs!

Ok, fine. I shall lead you
and take care of everything.

Forget the front
I am right behind you move.

Come...

Hey!

Aha...

Don't go that side
when they milk the cows.

Why not?

They may mistake you for a buffalo
and handle you too!

Stinking idiot!

Come...

Brother-in-law!
-Hmm?

He looks pretty determined to do something.

We should watch him in action.

After all he is our guy. Let him do!

Are all the bore wells ready?
-Hmm.

Let us water the entire farm then.
-Okay.

Son-in-law!

Do you think the water would be sufficient?

If we stop the rest of the
bores, they will be sufficient.

Right, right. Go ahead.

This looks different!

This one, uncle? It is a
new variety called quinoa.

This one…It takes less
water and more sunlight.

Moreover, it is five times more
profitable than the rice we sell.

My goodness! Is this so special?

Then what?

Hey! Is the motor ready?

Huh!

Don't you understand?

Don't you?

Look, Chaitra! Certain
things are best left at that.

Go to the city as your dad
suggested and be happy.

Oye! Uncle Keshavulu!
-Hey!

Uncle!
-Hey, What are you up to?

Here, here, uncle!
-Hey!

Hey, what are you trying to do?
-Why?

It's my uncle and my privilege
How are you bothered?

Trying to act smart?

Do you know how it would
be if I tried to act smart?

He used to deflate my tire and
force me to go to the coffee shop, aunt!

What! Do you mean my son?!

Yes, your very own son!

He used to be after me in the name of love.

Do you mean my son?!
-Yes, your very own son.

Being a girl, I am supposed
to fall for him some day, right?

So I fell in love.

With my son?

With your very own son.

Not just that, aunt!

Hey, brother!

Stop it! I beg you!

What shall we do now, brother-in-law?

She has grown up with no idea of work.

She will run away once
she is given some work.

Oye!

If you want to stay here,
you will have to work!

Of course I am here to work.

Let us do it!

Wow! Your girl seems
to have picked a great job!

Isn't this a job?

What? Picking grass?

Oye! You call this work.

Ohh!

Why? Do you think we can't do it?
-No one ask you to Picking grass?

Aha...

Come! Do it.

I can do it too.
-Come!

Here.
-Get going.

How are you tolerating this girl?

Hmm... tell me.

I asked the workers to come to
straighten the tree.

Ask them to come to the farm tomorrow
Let's straighten it out.

Ok brother-in-law.
-Hmm.

Hey! What…

What is this…half way through with food?

I have made a mistake…by
passing on my responsibility to him.

If I cleared my own debts, probably
he would have paid heed to me.

When did he disobey you all these years?

He likes the work. Let him make an attempt.

See and learn some and
do and do and learn some.

We shouldn't wait until we stumble.

I am worried he would
turn out to be like me.

Such a huge tree giving shade
for years is bent over by wind.

Uncle! Tie it to the other branch.

Get behind.

“Hold it fast…heigh ho
Grip it tight…heigh ho"

"Lift it high…heigh ho
Hold it tight…heigh ho"

"Hold it tight…heigh ho
Lift it high…heigh ho"

"Hold it tight…heigh ho
Lift it high…heigh ho"

We're loosing the grip, Careful.

Uncle..care full.

Hold it.

Don't leave.

"Hold it tight…heigh ho"

Hey are you click the picture?

This is an app
It captures plant diseases.

Wow! Simple superb.

What is it? Why are you behind this?

This is dragon fruit, dad!
One kg is equal to a sack of grains.

Oh, my! So it is a golden goose.

Hey!

Where are you taking that to?

The buffalo is on heat
Taking it to a bull for a cross.

Why do you need a bull for that?
I can cross it myself.

Hey!
-I will cross.

What does he understand by crossing?
-What is it?

Go away!

Look at these kids!

Dad! How come you are here!

You know what?

I know where every
penny goes in my business.

I am so careful!

But where my daughter is going,

I couldn't find out.

I wanted to tell you, Dad.

But if I told you, would you send me?

Obviously not. Why would I
send you to a place I don't like?

That's why I didn't inform you.

Crazy girl!

You must be thinking you went to
the man you like without my knowledge.

Karthik called me and
told me you were here.

When I saw you I knew, Dad,
that Kartik has informed you.

Though his girl is ready to marry him,

He preferred calling you
Understand the guy.

I am not here to argue with you.

One last time…are you going with me or not?

You were the one who told me,
Dad, that everything in life has options.

But when it comes to
Kartik, I find no option for him.

Ok.

So did you think I would
go away if you told him?

Your dad says he doesn't like it
Why don't you let go?

Even your dad doesn't
like what you are doing.

Why wouldn't you leave it?

You have learnt to talk.

Oye! Why are you walking away?

Tell whoever you want but I
am not going to budge from here.

Hey, Ravi! What is that?

This is jeevamrutham…elixir for…

All hard-workers are here.

Don't we deserve the elixir?

As much as you want, Sir.

What is jeevamrutham?
-It's village whiskey.

Wow!
-Let's have some!

Hey, Give me some, man!
-Sure. I will.

Just a little please.

Is it good?

Have it.
-Okay!

It tastes fine but there
is a funny smell to it.

What do you expect
from dung mixed water?

Aha!

They boast of city but they know nothing.

Hey, Edukondalu! Switch on the motor.

Oh no.

Karthik's new project has come up.

They don't eaven pick the call.

You call them they are listen.

Hey first finish your project
then come back.

OKay bro..bye.
Take care.

Kartik!

Kartik!
-What is it?

There is a letter for your son.

He doesn't stay here.

Why do you say that?

Isn't your son with you?

Do you hear? He doesn't stay here.

Don't you get it? Go on.

But he is right here.
Why is he saying that?

He is good at what he is
doing. Why are you still angry?

Do you see anger?

Huh! As long as he doesn't pay heed what
difference does it make where he stays?

What is it, man?

Take a look there, brother-in-law!

Hey, Can't you see?

Wait there! You…

What!

What are you staring at?

What is it that you are blabbering?

Hey! How dare you get drunk and act funny?

You are not afraid, because
no one questions, right?

Call out! Call whoever you want to.
-I will!

Where are you all from?

Come.

Come here!

Come!

Come!

I called them to hit and chase
them away, brother-in-law.

What is it?

Do you want to hit?

Get lost!

You and your villainous ways! Get lost!

Hey!

Why don't you get down to work instead of
smoking away bidis and cigarettes all the time?

I am full, aunt!
-Have some more, son. - Hey!

Hmm!

You should never hesitate
about food and bed.

Stop it, husband! You
never check before speaking.

These are life's truths.

And we have seen it.

That's why, uncle, I eat by nine and sleep.

Hey!

Your life is good for nothing
except washing the cattle.

Come on!

Hey!

What's wrong with you?

I have wasted a lot of
food all these days, Kartik.

I didn't know the value then.

I used to think money gets me food.

But after knowing the hardship
behind it,

I feel ashamed.

I have come to know a lot and learnt a lot.

It's all because of you, Kartik.

Brother Ramana called me last night, man.

Yes, he called me too.

He said farming is going
on well in the village.

Yes, eaven I also hear.

Yes farming is going
on well in the village.

I would like to go back.

I feel like going back too.

But what if we get back to square one?

A bird in hand is worth two in the bush.

Hey, you are able to look after your
mom because of your job.

Give it a thought.

Kabaddi…

Catch him…catch him…

Out!

Right!
-Out!

Hey!

You cannot chant for half a minute without
a break. Why do you want to indulge?

Hey, Balu! Step back.

Hey, you will be squished, man!

Do you take me for a
mosquito to be squished?

Hey, why are you sending him as raider?

Kabaddi…

Hey! Don't slap yourself
all over. It will be crushed.

Hey, Ravi!
-Yes, brother-in-law! Why did you call me?

I was just checking whether
you will respond or not.

Hey catch him!

Hey! He is out!

Unfair! He calls me.
-What do you mean unfair? Huh?

I will never play Kabaddi with you again.

Get lost!

Here is the money, uncle.

But you paid the salaries
only the other day.

That was salary
This is our common profit.

If everyone agrees, I want to do
something memorable using our first profit.

What do you say?

Hey, whatever you do I am
sure you will do something good.

Go ahead.

Not me, uncle.

This is something you all must do together.

Hmm Ok.

What is this, brother-in-law?

When a married daughter
is still at mother's home,

the anguish of her parents and the
silence at home are both unbearable.

That's why Kartik suggested...

...solving Raji's problem with our first
profit and make it a memorable deed.

We consented because what
could be a better thing to do?

What a great help you have extended!

When we wipe our own
tears, how can you call it help?

First go and make arrangements for
sending Raji to her in-laws.

Let's go.

What is this? I didn't like what he did.

Keshavulu then and this Raja now!

It looks like Kartik
will disturb your roots.

How come you are so cool!

Why are you silent?

I took it casually and
wasted a lot of time.

I won't give him a chance now.

What is all this?
-What do you mean?

They are looking all around for a good
match and so I brought them for our Bujji.

They are also our distant relatives.

What is it? Why are you lost in thought?

They are big shots
I wonder if we can match up to them.

Good things happen unannounced.

I will take care of everything.

First, go and bring Bujji here. Go.

Go on!

Take it.

World is transforming but
not the bride offering tea.

Give him to some poison.

But why are you here, man? Go to the jeep.

I am not able to contact
him. I wonder where he is.

So, how is our Bujji?

As if I don't know her! She is gold.

Very good. I am glad.

Hey, why don't we decide
on the other thing too?

I told you, right?

Keshavulu has brought up his children well.

But he cannot offer millions as dowry.

Oh, no, brother! We have
enough wealth for generations.

Why do we need dowry?
We only want the girl.

That will do, dear. What
you said is really great.

It's...

It is your kindness to reject dowry.

But we shall conduct the
wedding equal to your status.

Hey!

I will take care of it.

Ok, brother. As you wish.

Ok, Sir. Let us take leave of you.

Greetings!
-Greetings!

Let us meet on an auspicious
day to fix the wedding date.

Ok, brother.
-What do you say, Keshavulu?

Okay.

See you, brother.
-Take care.

Hey, Thanks!
-Hold it, man!

Who is a better well
wisher for Bujji than us?

Let me go now.

Hey, Ekambaram!

How much do you think it would
cost for the wedding approximately?

They are big people.

They invite big people.

It will definitely be expensive.

How much approximately?
-Why do you worry?

I am here. I will take care of the wedding.

You take care of the rest.

Ok.

Hey! How come you are late?

Your sister's wedding
is fixed into a rich family.

Is it so, mom?
-Yes, dear.

Hey, monkey!

See you, Keshava!
-Ok.

Hey, start the vehicle.

Let's get down to wedding arrangements.

Corona commotion in China.

World Health Organization
alerts the world nations.

Uncle, do you think we
should be careful too?

No idea, man.

Hey, Is it our Prasad?
Stop the vehicle.

Hey, Prasad!

Hmm!

Where to?

I am going to the field, Sir.

It's on my way. Get in.

Ok.

What Prasad?
-Hmm!

You seem to be doing the
whole job all by yourself.

Nothing of that sort, Seenaiah.

I don't know, man!

If your grandfather were systematic,

you would be roaming in
a jeep or a car like me now.

Why do you say that,
brother-in-law? What is wrong now?

What do you mean what happened?

He had set up a rice
mill with four partners.

All of them took his
grandfather for a ride.

Ohh!

He had to sell everything and leave.

But he is also working
together with others.

That is what I am worried about.

All their hard work has gone
into releasing Raja's papers.

I am worried he will
replicate his grandfather.

Also, he owns major
portion of these fields.

You reach the bank if
you paddle your own boat.

When all get into the same boat,
you drown because of the weight.

The clever one will get
off the boat, of course.

Thank you sir.

Hey, Chandraiah!
-Hmm!

This rice crop is ready for reaping
Make sure water doesn't get in.

Ok.

Kartik…

What is this fancy dress?

Did you say fancy dress?

Do you know how much effort I put in?

For you.

I wanted to set up
scarecrows across the fields.

Now I don't need them.

Hey!

Hey!

It took me two hours to put this on.

Can't you look at me
at least for two minutes?

Anyway, what is the matter?

Your younger sister is getting married.

Hmm, So?

It is our wedding next, right?

That's why I am getting used to this.

No wedding. Find someone else.

I know. I am always after you
So you put me down.

I will leave.

That's a job done. Please do.

I am leaving for real.

Very good. Please leave.

Dear, dear, dear! What is it?
Why are you going that way?

Dear, please wait!

Here, man.
-Hey! What is this?

Why do you make a girl cry at this hour?

Wow! Why do you scold
me because she wants to cry?

Do something and stop the girl.

Take a morsel.
-Dear, dear!

Hey, I told him not to water this bit.
Where the hell is he?

Hey, Chandraiah!
-Yes, what is it?

You watered this bit
in spite of my warning.

See how badly it is damaged now.

I had something to attend to.

You could have told me
I would have taken care.

Do you mean to say I did it on purpose?

Anyway it is my own bit. I will take care.

What do you mean you will take care?

Loss is not yours alone. It is everyone's.

You are only worried about your loss but
never about the other guy's difficulties.

Hey, Why are you beating around the bush?

Beating around the bush?

You have taken all our toil and
solved someone's problem. Why?

Don't we have problems?

All of you cheered to what Kartik said.

Who will take care of our own needs?

That is all is your worry, right?

Let my son-in-law come.

You can take it the next time.

Hey, who are you to process it?

How are you authorized to give me my share?

True, uncle. It doesn't look
like we are working together.

It's as if we are working under him.

Hey, childish brat! Shut your mouth.

Hey! Isn't he one of us?
What is wrong with his asking a question?

Isn't it wrong when he is
making false allegations?

And you are backing him! Have you no sense?

There is no one here
more senseless than you.

Hey!
-Hey!

Hey! Don't slip your tongue.

Or what?

Wait!

Hey.

Sort out issues in your own field.
Move from here. Get lost!

Come on, man.
-Let's go.

Uncle!

Uncle! What is this, uncle?

We are all here to work
together. Why fight?

Uncle, if you think I
am at fault punish me.

Abuse me or hit me. But don't do this.

Hey, This is not an
issue that can be resolved.

Leave me alone.

Hey, Where are you?

Uncle! Please!
Listen to me this one time.

Aunt! At least you tell
him not to separate.

Ok, Uncle. As you say. Let's do as you say
What do you say?

Enough of this! I don't
want to repeat history.

Get inside!

What is this, dear? You
are making a grave mistake.

This separation is no good to us.
-Stop it!

Everyone seems to be wiser here!

I know what to do.
Mind your business.

We were slogging somewhere and he
invested to bring us here and gave us work.

What investment? What bloody investment?!

We own a quarter of the entire fields.

But the crop is as it is in our bit.

I will sell it and repay him. You carry on!

What started as a drizzle
escalated into a storm!

Everything makes sense except
the wedding plan, brother-in-law.

Go and hand this over to Keshavulu.

Then what?

But he won't accept money for free.

Ohh!

MRO!
-Sir?

Be prepared to transfer
all the fields in my name.

Hello!

Your products are not
delivered in the past four days.

This cannot go on. We will
have to look for an alternative.

Ball is in your court, Kartik.

Who was on the phone, son-in-law?

From the supermarket, uncle.

They are pressurizing for the load.

Let us send it, then.

How can we send it, uncle?

The product is in Chandram uncle's bit.

What is this, Kartik?

If you get discouraged,
what about the others?

Come to the fields quick.
There is a lot to do.

Ok?

Hmm.

Why have you come here, mom?

If you called me, I would come myself.

Your dad wanted to come.

We need your signature on this.

Just for signature? Hey, get me a pen.

Your younger sister is
getting married, right?

We have decided to sell the land.

But why sell the land for her wedding?

I can arrange the money myself.

No one need arrange.

I know how to conduct
my daughter's wedding.

Just ask him to sign the paper.

Why do you say that, Dad?
After all, she is my sister.

I have a responsibility too.

I made a mistake giving
you my responsibility once.

I don't want to repeat it
and be deceived.

Sign it!

Dad! Please hear me out once.

So you refuse to sign!

OK.

I know how to dispose it.

Dad!

The land is in grandpa's name.
You would need my signature for sure.

You won't be able to sell
it without my signature.

Do you realize who you are talking to?

You were away in the hostel
and would ask him for money.

He wouldn't even finish his meal

But ask someone or the other,
arrange it and send it to you.

And is this how you speak to him?

If you are willing to sign, say
so. Otherwise say you won't.

But if you draw lines between your
grandpa's property and your property,

I will kill you!

Parvati! Enough talk! Let's go.

Come.

Husband! Please give it a second thought.

I thought he was ignoring my words.

But I never thought he
would use such words!

May be by mistake…

What mistake?

Today he said the land
belonged to his grandfather.

What if he says the same about this house?

When an outsider says something we
remember it only when we meet them.

But when a family member
says it, the pain is perpetual.

It is good to be as far away as
possible from certain memories.

Get going.

Hey, Kartik!

uncle is leaving the village..

Hey! Do you see what you have done?

Has the land become more valuable to you?

Hey! Nothing is more
valuable to me than my father.

Really? Then why don't you sign, huh?

Only the other day I requested
Chandram uncle not to go separate.

Now if I sell my own land,
what would others think?

They would feel betrayed
because they are here trusting me.

Why do you bother about
people who don't care about you?

Let them meet their fate.

They made a mistake unknowingly.

I cannot make the same mistake knowingly.

In any case, the value of my
signature is not just on that paper.

It is also in my upbringing by dad.

I can never ruin that.

Corona breaks out across India.

The central government
has announced lockdown.

'From 12 at midnight,

The whole of India will
come under total lockdown.

This is also a kind of curfew.

Every resident shall
consider this as a priority.'

The whole country has come to a standstill.

With the markets closed down,
farmers face severe problems.

They are not allowing vehicles on the road.

After we plucked the fruit,
we are stuck with corona!

Brother-in-law! Kartik is
receiving blow after blow.

He talked about joint agriculture
and now they are separated.

Family has deserted him.

On top of that corona
has given the biggest blow.

You found a horse shoe, brother-in-law!

I am sorry, Kartik. We cannot offer more.

They are offering very little, man!

The crop is going to be spoilt.

Uncle! You are worried
about a damaged crop.

Is anyone worried about him?

He gave up a million rupee salary, disowned
his family and came here to work with us.

All those whom he trusted,
went their own ways.

The situation in the
market now is pretty bad.

His life is ruined for no reason.

Due to lockdown, the daily
provisions reach their highest price.

We are worried not knowing
how to dispose the produce.

How are they selling it for so high?

By the way, how many followers
do we have on our social media?

More than two lakhs.

Ready!

Hi, I am Kartik.

It's a great pleasure
meeting you all this way.

You are all aware corona has made
our thoughts revolve around healthy food.

What to buy is fearsome and
where to buy is a big question.

Our brand Srikaaram is the
answer to many questions.

We tend to our crops as carefully
as a father does with his child.

You can watch the way
we farm on live streaming…

live farming.

You can place orders
as per your requirement.

You don't have to step
in to the market for this.

Our Srikaaram brand
will be at your doorstep.

Farmer to customer…no one else between.

Wherever you are, however remote,

our men will knock at your
door before your milkman does.

Stay home. Stay safe.

We know the value of hunger.

We definitely understand your needs.

Brother Prasad! The workers
are asking for their wages.

Our needs have increased
and there is no sign of work.

Do something, brother
I am not able to answer them.

What is this, uncle? We were hoping for
the best and everything turned upside down.

Hey!

May be it's better we meet Kartik once.

How can you face him?

Have some shame.

How much he had
requested you not to separate!

No one cared to listen.

Why would they listen?

They say one thing on empty
stomach and one thing on a full one.

He distanced his family for our sake.

And you…

You are approaching him for your needs.

Why, aunt!

Why do you use big words like far and near?

Wow! That's a great crop!

Send it to the shed, uncle
We will market it.

Hey, Kartik! These people…
-Stop it, aunt.

Send it, uncle. We will do something.
-Hey, Kartik!

I made a mistake, man.

It's ok, uncle
There are no mistakes in family.

As if you and aunt never quarreled in life!

Did you go separate because you quarreled?
It's the same with us.

Let us argue, let us fight
but let us stay together.

What do you say?

Hey, Prasad!

Hmm!

Son-in-law!

Lots of calls coming in
from the other Mandals.

Asking us to sell the crop for them.

Hey, See?

Hey, Kartik! There is a terrific
response to your video, man!

Orders are as fast.

We better maintain as
much stock as possible.

Hey, all these are farmers
from our neighbouring villages.

Brother in law.

The contractor is ready to
hike the wages if we stay here.

No, man.

We already made a mistake not
going back when Kartik called us.

We can't make another mistake
staying back now. We will go.

Hey, wait. I will go with you too.
-Let's go.

Hello.

Get ready for the Farmers' Day Sale.

Farmers' Day Sale?

It's a terrific idea.

We have seen gadgets and clothes on offer.

For the first time he is
announcing offers on crops.

Joint farming is a novel trend.

Bringing the whole village together.

Turning farming into a profitable venture.

This young farmer becomes
the new idol for the youth.

Our college 25 annual celebrations.

You have to be there a chief guest kartik.

You keep getting drunk, brother-in-law.

They are ready to take their papers
with all the money they have earned.

Hey!

Send as many as you want.

Not a single person should
come to me with money.

Do whatever you want to.

Karthik, I have to tell you something.

Be right back.

I think he came to know our dirty job.

What is this?

Why are you doing this?

Not one or two…it's my
dream of twenty five years.

Ekambarapuram!

You have destroyed it all!

If only you could join!

Four people together make a house.
A few houses make a street.

A few streets make a village.

Do you want to send away everyone and make
this village solitary just like your name?

You are making a big mistake, uncle.

This village is not named after your
father-in-law because he had given his lands.

They named it after him in
memory of all his good deeds.

Then where is my recognition?

Everyone refers to me as
the son-in-law of Mr Anantraju.

Why don't they look at me for what I am!
-They won't.

They cannot, uncle.

Because after the gentleman
died, they see him in you.

Whoever enters the village
first meets you and then go home.

That is the kind of
respect they have for you.

They don't think you
lend them money, uncle.

They think you are helping them.

I am not old enough to advise you.

In difficulties, people
find God even in stone.

If they realize you are not God but just
a stone, they won't be able to take it.

The youngster who showed how an educated youth
handles agriculture happens to be our student.

He makes us and the college proud.

Now I invite Mr Kartik
to speak a few words.

Congrats, Kartik!
-Thank you, Sir.

How are you all?

It's a great feeling,
man, to see you all here.

Let me not be the only speaker
just because they have invited me.

Let us all talk together. Ok?

Ok.

After graduation, what
are you all planning to do?

Hardly any choice, brother.
Computer Science group.

So I will take up a software job.

Hmm

I am trying to appear
for Civil Services, Sir.

Oh!

I am doing Mechanical Engineering, brother.

But they pay high salaries in software
So I am planning to jump.

Very good.

I don't know if you are all aware.

For the nine lakh students
stepping out of colleges every year,

there are only three lakh jobs.

What about the rest?

If they find jobs, well and good.

But if they don't?

As time passes, pressure mounts at home.

On the other hand,
pressure from girl friends.

You have them right…who keep saying
they are looking for matches at home.

Amidst all this …

Friends, strangers, and neighbours ask one
question in spite of knowing everything.

Why? No job yet?

Still free?

They are ask.

In that situation, we are
ready to take up any job.

Finally when we get the offer,
we are ready to go even to Uganda.

What you say is true, brother.
But what is the solution?

I am getting there.

When did we first know we
can turn software into a career?

After Y2K problem, brother.

Yes.

Opportunities that were in
thousands till then, turned into lakhs.

There was a sudden software boom.

Even those who didn't cross the
village borders, started going abroad.

Do you wonder why? Shortage.

Same is the case with civil engineering.

It was considered useless to study or
to make someone study civil engineering.

Then there was a sudden real estate boom.

You know the rest.

Why?

Because of shortage.

So many careers like this.

Do you know what the
next trending field is?

Farming.

Farming?

Farming!

Do you wonder why?

By the way,

How many of your grandfathers were farmers?

What about your dads?

See?

Agriculture was so much
during our grandfathers' time.

But during our fathers' time?

But now?

Tomorrow?

It may come to the point, where we
say there used to be agriculture here.

There are numerous mouths to feed
but very few hands to produce food.

We have a great opportunity here.

We have a very good chance of
exploring farming and agriculture.

Till now it is believed only the
illiterate lean towards farming.

From now on,

even the educated
shall get into farming.

It will be good, if they do.

With the help of
technology and information,

we can do wonders.

Like any other profession,

we should be proudly declaring
ourselves to be farmers.

We shall pick up from where the
previous generation has stopped.

Because farming is in our blood.

We shall become the bridges of transition
from this generation to the next.

We considered only law, medicine
and engineering as careers.

We see now that farming is also a career,
brother.

We will definitely try, brother.

Yes, Sir.

Having seen your success,

we don't see why we shouldn't
consider farming as an option.

Yes.

You have come here
today and inspired so many.

But who is your inspiration, brother?

Keshavulu.

My Dad.

When I was seven years old,

My dad used to take
me to the field every day.

He taught me how to remove
weed and how to turn the hoe.

As I grew up, my interest in
agriculture also grew along.

But for my father it was
his anxiety that kept growing.

As my father grew more anxious,
He started distancing me from the field.

Amidst all that anxiety…

Son!

I really slog.

But there is no result.

You cared for your parents and family well.

But I am not able to care
for you and my own family.

When it came to me,

Even the soil refuses to budge.

I am afraid it was a mistake
to take up farming, father.

Normally people draw
inspiration from success.

But..

I drew inspiration from my dad's setbacks.

You are doing a noble
job of feeding people.

I wanted to scream and tell him,
This is no mistake.

But

I couldn't tell him that day.

But now, here,

I want to tell him loud,
clear and with pride.

Dad! I stand here today not because of my
job

But because of the farming you taught me.

I walked the soil he had trodden.

That is what led me towards victory.

The first step to my victory is..

My Dad.

My father is my inspiration.

Anantharajupuram.

Forgive me.

Keep it.

It makes you strong.

Son-in-law!

Jyoti!

Hey, why the talk? Focus on work.

Hey, Make it fast.

Happy?

It's ours next.

Aha! That's what you say.

Hmm..
