All language subtitles for Sarkar (2018) Tamil (2160p WEBRip x265 10bit DolbyAtmos) - [Musafirboy]_track3_eng

Hello, guys.

How many of you know
about Mr. Sundar Ramasamy?

What do you know?
- He is the CEO of GL.

Lives in America.

He is getting 1800 crores
per annum.

And he's one of the most intelligent
man in this corporate world.

He is a Tamil guy.

GL has installed him as the CEO
just to destroy their competitors.

He is a monster.

Far as I know,
he's not that nice a man.

Everything you've heard about him,
is pretty much true.

He weakens the power
of every competitor...

...and leaves the country
only after they are totally destroyed.

If he's heading to a country,
companies over there quake with fear.

Now, he's coming to India.

At this juncture, you may have guessed
the purpose of this emergency meeting.

His target may even be our company.

In the event that our company
is his target...

...think of how
we can stop him.

Look up records of his old articles
and meetings online.

Take a close look at what he did
in other countries before this!

Get going!

Last time he was here,
was five years ago...

...for his elder brother's marriage.

Now, his brother and sister-in-law
have filed for divorce.

But, this girl has had her eyes
on Sundar.

Guys, come here.
- What is it?

He is a monster.

They nicknamed him 'Genghis Khan',
right?

He's such a playboy.
But, he's cool.

Really.
- Check this out.

'Do you want an ally,
to get me out in play?'

'A missile, I'm!
Don't mess with me!'

'Do you want an ally,
to get me out in play?'

'A missile, I'm!
Don't mess with me!'

'A demonic acclaim does arise!'

'Rocked is the stage
when the name is uttered!'

'Beyond the bounds of time,
it would spread on and chime!'

'Do you want an ally,
to get me out in play?'

'A missile, I'm!
Don't mess with me!'

'Whatever I touch, is gold!'

'I'm a freakout!'

'You'll be knocked out!
Tread carefully!'

'I have my own share of the moon, too!

'A little town is there, just for me.
Shall we go?'

'A stunning rain of dollars
reaches up to my collar, every day!'

'Be it the sky, the land,
or the yellow sun...'

'They all change colors
based on my every command!'

'Do you want an ally,
to get me out in play?'

'A missile, I'm!
Don't mess with me!'

'Do you want an ally,
to get me out in play?'

'A missile, I'm!
Don't mess with me!'

'Like oxygen that fills the air,
all must breathe your name!'

'Even Google must search for you
and be in awe.'

'If there are troubles,
we will bear it!'

'If there is success,
we will share it!'

'If fear nears us,
we will make it scream!'

'We will hit the bull's eye,
every, every time!'

'Do you want an ally,
to get me out in play?'

'A missile, I'm!
Don't mess with me!'

'Do you want an ally,
to get me out in play?'

'A missile, I'm!
Don't mess with me!'

Come, bro.
- Make way, get back!

Sir...

Just a minute, sir!

Sir, just one question.
- Welcome to Tamil Nadu, sir.

Do you know several corporates
are spooked by your arrival here?

All of them are dreading over
which company you're acquiring.

They even claim that...

...your purpose is buying them out
and shutting them down!

"Which company
are you about to acquire?"

Please tell us!
- Yes, sir.

"Tell us which one."

I didn't come here
to acquire any company.

Nor am I here to destroy any.

What day is today?

The Election Day
for Tamil Nadu's Legislative Assembly.

Have all of you voted?
- Yes, sir!

I have come to cast my vote.

What?

I'm going to be in India
for just four hours.

First, voting at the school
in Triplicane.

Then, dinner with my family.

After that, I will leave tonight.

Thank you.
- Step aside.

Thank you.
- Wow! I can't believe this.

Just to cast his vote...

...he has come this far
on a private plane.

He is unbelievable.
- My God!

Okay, guys. Come on,
carry on with your work.

Melissa, you please wait outside.
- Okay, sir.

Here's your voter ID and passport.
- Okay.

Hello, sir.
- Good day!

Watch my post, Mr. Marimuthu.
- Will do.

I'm at the Quality Assurance division
in Infoware.

Hi.
- Hi.

Mr. Narayanan has told me a lot
about you.

Nila?

How are you?
- I'm good.

Excuse me.
- Please.

Read that you were coming to India.

Just got word
that you were coming to vote.

Yeah.
- Good.

Your father's contesting, right?

Twice a member of
the Legislative Assembly.

If he wins this time,
he'll be a minister.

How's your sister-in-law?

She is okay.
Love marriage, divorce, upset.

I saw your brother in court.

I greeted him.
He just walked away.

Oh...
- Sir...

Can we take a selfie with you?

Two minutes, please.
Sorry. - Alright.

Can we take a selfie together?

Okay.

My Instagram is going to be
bombarded with likes!

Facebook listed your relationship
status as 'single'.

That is true.

What about that girl
who was with you?

Yes. Just one girl, right?

Thus, 'single'.

She's just my personal assistant.

If there is a woman by my side...

...I get a little more energized.

Secret of your energy?

Okay, have to go. Bye.

The symbol of my father's party
is an axe.

An axe.
- Yes.

Bye.

Good day, sir.
- Good day.

What happened, sir?

His vote has been illegally cast
by someone else!

What?
Someone else has cast Sundar's vote?

The vote of Mr. Sundar Ramaswamy
has been cast by someone else.

A very insulting turn of events!

How many such votes
have been cast like so?

You are looking live at the election
polling wing of the region.

What do you think about this?

Leave me alone for some time, please.

You may recall that in 1991...

...that the vote of Mr. Sivaji Ganesan
was cast by another.

Since then, thousands of votes
have been cast illegally!

Such corruptions of democracy
comes to law...

...only when it happens to...

What is this, man?
This is all over the news!

Let it go. What's done is done!
What now?

What do we do now?

Polling time is over.

He'll leave for America
in ten minutes!

Sir, a small mistake has occurred.

Please don't escalate it.

A "small mistake"?

I travelled 13,000 kilometres
to cast this vote!

Step back!

Call Indian embassy
and inform this incident.

This is such a disgrace
to our country...

What should be the election
commission's reaction to this?

Yes, dad?
- What's going on, dear?

All the TV channels are buzzing!

Someone else has cast Sundar's vote!

Is he going to create
an issue over this?

I don't know, dad.
Think he did seem pretty upset.

Polling is about to end.

Go with him. Make some small talk
and send him packing to America!

Alright, dad.

What happened?
Did you call the embassy?

Sir, we're trying on different numbers,
but no one is there.

I told you to reach
election commissioner office.

The Commissioner's phone is ringing,
but nobody is picking up.

The fact that phones are ringing
is significant enough!

Sir, no response here too.

Ok

Are you okay?

Shall I come with you?

Where to, sir? House on the left.
Airport on the right.

And if you go straight?

The courthouse.
- Head over there!

Hi, Sundar. I've heard about it.

There's nobody to track
Chandramani in Delhi.

Connect with you on video call.
Sir...

Hi, this is Jeth Malani here.

I'm in Delhi now.
I'm coming tomorrow morning.

I've sent my office location
to your team.

A few papers need to be signed.

I'll meet you in person.

Mr. Jeth Malani...

Halt the voting of that region, today.

Only after I cast my vote,
must vote counting begin.

I'll be there tomorrow.
We'll see the possibility.

Okay.

Mark?
- Yeah?

Mail me the election laws.
I just want to go through it.

Yeah, okay.
- Indian Election law.

Of course.

Won't let it go, will he?

"As the vote of Sundar Ramaswamy,
the CEO of GL, was cast by another..."

"...legal experts are being consulted.
The verdict hinges on the court."

In your education,
you would have studied about...

...solutions for problem finding,
spot decisions and considerations.

Watch how a leading CEO
deals with such a situation.

You must learn from
his corporate approach.

I bet, this guy is going to
take everyone to task.

Not just asset information!

But, also the amount
of money in containers...

...and payoffs to each person!

If it had wound up in someone's hands,
we'd all be finished!

If this keeps up, we can't do business,
'Rendu' (number two)!

If this had shown up on CCTV cameras,
none of you would be drawing breath!

Get that one!

You take it.

Think you're James Bond, eh?

Filthy dog!

Muthukumar of 'Saattai.com'!

Sir!

Take photographs, will you?

Go take pictures of your elder sister!

Sir!

Sir...

Come.
- Sir?

Would they be comfortable
with me being here?

Of course.
Why wouldn't they be?

He's even brought her home!

They're sleeping!

They're watching!

She has busted us!

Yay!
Uncle is here!

Hi.
- Wow!

Hey, kids!

How's the trip?
- All good!

Hi, mom!
- Hi, dear!

Hi. Hello.

Hi, grandma!
- Hi.

Uncle, come.
- Good.

Thank you, uncle.

Come, dear.
- Come along, Nila.

Awesome.
- Wow!

What is this? Just got here
and you're filing lawsuits already!

What else, mom?

Must I come all the way from America
just so someone else could cast my vote?

Hey, kids! Got my gifts?
- Yes. They were awesome, uncle!

Have a seat, Nila.
Tell her to sit down.

In this day and age, who wins fairly?

They all have weird symbols.

People pick any symbol
they happen to like!

Those days are long gone!

Nowadays, they pay for votes!

Bundles and bundles of money!

No one is clean!

How can you generalize like that?

My father's a very good man!

He takes very little.

Sometimes, I've seen him
take just change!

Terrific family!
- Sorry, dear.

We forgot you were here!

Come on. Let's have dinner.

Take them to eat, mom!

Hey, kiddo!
How are you?

How's your sister?
- She is fine.

She's very happy.

Stop it!

Hello.

"AIMMK party members
are beyond ecstatic!"

"They're in the lead in every one
of the 234 constituencies!"

"Ex-Chief Minister Masilamani
will be sworn in for the third time!"

'Back with...'

Hey!
You've come today, as well?

Just so I could be of help to you.

Okay, come.

You wouldn't have come for no reason.

Your dad's constituency, yes?
That's why.

That, too.

They've started counting
votes over there.

My father is in the lead
with 30,000 votes!

Is that so?

We heard about it yesterday.

But, we didn't expect that
you'd come to court.

You've asked for a stay order
on vote counting.

But, it has already begun.

Mr. Venkatesan has
a lead of 30,000 votes.

Do not announce the result
for that region alone.

Only after including my vote...

...must you officially declare it.

Is it possible?
- No.

The law states that every citizen
must produce their voter ID.

He's a non-resident Indian.

In addition to this ID,
an NRI must also produce the passport.

Without these, to permit casting
of an illegal vote...

...is a serious offense.

To that end, the Election Commission
has suspended twelve employees!

The law is not just
for punishing thieves.

But, also to return
what has been stolen.

If the right to vote is democracy's
most valuable possession...

...when that right is stolen,
isn't it fair to return it?

But, what kind of change could
that one vote of yours bring about?

Sir...

Every vote is important, sir!

When it came to a
choice of either English or

German... as America's
official language...

...English won by just one vote!

Democracy won over military rule
in France by just one vote!

Hitler became the leader
of the Nazi party...

...with a lead of just one vote!

Washington became part of America
with just one vote!

Even the *** government was toppled
by just one vote.

What you say is true.

That's why we bring about awareness
on voting, six months before elections!

Rule number one:
My voter ID was not inspected.

Rule number two:
I'm a non-resident Indian.

My original passport
must have been inspected.

Rule number three:
Section 49-P.

Everyone knows about 49-O,
but I'm talking about 49-P.

As per Section 49-P
of the Indian Election Law...

...if one's vote
has been illegally cast by another...

...they must be given
what is called a 'ballot vote'...

...and be permitted
to cast their vote!

Does such a law exist?

Yes. He is correct.
Such a law does exist.

You can look up Section 49-P
on Google in your mobile phones.

But, nobody knows
that a Section 49-P even exists.

Neither did I, Your Honor.
Until last night.

Ten years ago,
the people weren't aware of 49-O.

But, now everyone knows, right?

NOTA.

In that same manner,
they must learn about 49-P!

Rather than just telling them
that such a law exists...

...if you pass
this sensational verdict...

...within a day,
all of India will know.

But, he already has a lead
of 30,000 votes.

One vote may not bring about
any change in this constituency.

But, this verdict will emphasize
the importance of every vote!

Not just in law books of the future...

...but it will be there in the syllabus
of law students.

This case will be an exam question.

And your name will be the answer.

It is the responsibility of this court,
to ensure that citizens...

...are made aware of fundamental rights
that they are entitled to exercise.

By means of this verdict...

...this awareness
will definitely be raised.

Even amidst the buzz of vote counting
of the recently concluded election...

...Mr. Sundar's case is being
discussed by the media.

Through it, everyone will be made aware
of Section 49-P.

Even if his vote
was illegally cast by someone else...

...under Section 49-P, a ballot vote
should have been provided to him.

Having failed to have provided one,
is a mistake.

To rectify this mistake...

...in the very same voting booth
at the same school...

...I hereby declare that your vote
must be given to you.

Only after your vote has been cast...

...will the election result
of that region be legally declared.

As the next five days
are working days for the school...

...this will happen
on the coming Saturday...

...in the same polling station.

This court and the Election Commission
hereby declare...

...that you will be permitted
to cast your vote on that day.

Sensational.

Thank God, you lodged...

"Party members of the
AIMMK continue to celebrate..."

"...their present
lead in the election."

"But, our American bro Sundar
is permitted..."

We've won, right?

I didn't sleep all night!
I'm so hungry right now!

Got an invite for a lunch party
from Infoware's chairman.

What do you think about
you casting your vote?

You're being talked about
all over the radio, sir!

He's a leading advocate, isn't he?

Yes, indeed.

He charges for every hour
he speaks in court.

Like a rental cycle.

Factoring in court time and flight fare,
he sent a bill for lakhs of rupees!

Lakhs of rupees just for one vote, sir?

That collector office over there?

Last month, on the twelfth...

...a father, a mother and
two children immolated

themselves. Couldn't pay back
25,000 rupees to a loan shark.

I was there.

The children didn't move an inch.

They just stood by,
looking at their father!

Somebody save them!

Someone come and help!

Just 25,000 rupees, sir!

Were any of them
able to survive this?

Only one girl child made it.

Her half burned body
was taken to a hospital.

Did the government take any action?

Yes, they did.
The next day...

...they had
a fire engine stationed outside.

A fire engine?

What does a loan shark have to do
with a fire engine?

Only those who wish for no one to die
will want to solve the problem.

If they want them
to not die in this spot...

...a fire engine will be their solution.

What did the public do
when this happened?

They forwarded it on WhatsApp.

On WhatsApp?

They sent messages to others
about this on WhatsApp.

And those folks?

They forwarded it to more people,
who sent it to more people and so on.

What happened next?

Another issue would arise
and we'll keep forwarding it, too.

Here, problems don't need solutions.
They only need other problems.

Danny, could you please
pull over the convoy? - Copy that.

Wait for me at the house
of Infoware's chairman, Nila.

Tell them
I'll be there in thirty minutes.

Proceed.

Where are you going?

I don't know anyone there!

Sundar!

Hi. Mr. Sundar did not come?

Yeah, I'm his friend.
He'll be here in a few minutes.

Oh, okay. I'm Narayanan of Infoweb.

You're welcome.

'Senkalpattu, Arakonam,
Tiruthani, Thiruvalvamalai...

...many...

I'm very happy, today.

I want to thank
the city's top celebrities...

...for accepting my invite
to be here today.

One more thing.

The election vote counting is ongoing.

In it, the party of Mr. Malarvannan,
the AIMMK...

...is leading in every constituency.

The pride of Tamil Nadu...

...Mr. Sundar Ramaswamy,
is also here today!

In fact...

He went to court
to reclaim his vote!

I'm sorry to intrude.

But, I'm very happy today, too!

He explained why.

What is the one thing
that unites us all?

What do we all have in common?

Money.

He's an educationalist.
Owns six universities, doesn't he?

Would he even admit one student
free of cost?

Why did this man study law?

To identify a loophole
and save his client!

And this auditor?

To reduce tax payment
to the government!

Here...

Why did this young chap go to America?
- Sir.

For a salary of 1800 crores.
He pretty much ran away there!

But, politicians?

How do you expect us to serve
after we spend so much?

After buying votes
for ten thousand rupees each...

...why must we provide free service?

We put in ten thousand
and reclaim twenty thousand!

That's our talent, right?

Excuse me.

You said money is what all of us
have in common.

You're mistaken.
You're very mistaken.

What we all have in common,
is people.

People support, you know.

Viewers for a TV channel.

Customers for businessmen.
Voters for political leaders.

Passengers for airplanes.
Readers for the print media.

You know?

But, the common word used
to describe them, is 'people'.

The alms that they toss at us...

...is what makes businessmen,
political leaders, CEOs and so on.

Extra....extra...

Well said, sir.

That's what I said
using different terms.

We take money from the public.

While you take it from your customers.

Even then, the common factor
is money, right?

Television spotlights
the face of my leader...

...who got four crore votes
across 234 constituencies.

They also spotlight this young man
whose one vote was stolen.

Will it or will it not sting us?

Did this chap go to court
to save the nation?

Every time his name is mentioned on TV,
they emphasize that he is the CEO of GL.

Isn't that talent, too?

But, this young chap
does not know of our talent.

You're heading over to cast your vote
this Saturday, right?

Shall I see to it that this vote
is also illegally cast by another?

Challenge me to do it.

I can make sure
that you don't get that vote, too.

It's time.
Need to go to the leader's house.

My dear boy...

Please ensure that the vote you cast
on Saturday, is for our party.

I'll take your leave.
Come along, man!

He sent us away.
Where is he?

"Mr. Masilamani, the AIMMK leader,
has a lead of 25,000 thousand votes..."

"...over his competitor,
Mr. Chinnaswamy."

"Amid all this, developments in the case
of Mr. Sundar Ramaswamy..."

"...the CEO of GL, is being covered
by the press and politicians..."

Alright.

Daughter is calling from Canada.

Hello, dad! Congratulations!
Three time Chief Minister, huh?

You're on the news
in every Tamil channel here!

Sorry I couldn't come over.

What did my son-in-law say?

What about him?
He's very happy.

Don't eat any sweets!

I haven't, dear!

Taken your tablets?
- Yes, I have.

Tylenol?
- Took that one.

Sulfonyl biguanides?

I took all of them, dear.

How many milligrams, dad?

2.5 milligrams, dear.

I don't want any sweets, dear.

Just speak to your mother...

...and get me permission
for two large rounds of booze!

Okay, but only for today.

But, no whisky.
Try brandy, dad.

Okay, dear.

Pass the phone
to Malarvannan uncle, dad.

Can anyone defeat us in Tamil Nadu?
It's impossible, isn't it?

Correct?

The leader's daughter
wants to talk to you.

Give me!

Hello, my dear!
How are you?

Hello, uncle!
I'm fine!

Clean sweep of the election, huh?

At a higher percentage
than the last time, dear!

One more important thing, uncle.

Didn't want to tell dad,
so I'm telling you.

Tell me, dear.

Are you alone right now?

Yes, dear.

I heard on the news that in
the Triplicane constituency...

...that Sundar, the CEO of GL,
is going to cast his vote.

Yes, that is true.

Guy's a nutcase!

For him, they've halted vote counting
at Venkatesh's constituency.

That's the main reason
for my call to you.

He is no ordinary man.

He's extremely intelligent and crafty.

Who gives a damn about who he is?

His tricks won't work against us!

No.
You don't know him.

Last year, he came to Canada.

He stayed here for three weeks.

In the third week...

...he was the centerpiece
of the entire media.

He shut down a prominent IT company.

Good grief!

He laid off twenty two thousand
employees!

Ten thousand of them
even left the country!

Its impact is felt here even today!

Do not mess with him
in any way.

But, we've won in every constituency.
Haven't we, dear?

He only has one vote with him!

Just listen to me.

Three governments have barred him
from coming to their countries.

Do not cross paths with him
in any way.

Alright, dear.

Did you say anything to him?

No!
I haven't uttered a word to him!

Thank goodness!

Steer clear of him
until he leaves India.

Goodbye, uncle.
- Goodbye, dear.

Think I blubbered something
after boozing this morning!

But, did I not leave when that chap
was smiling and smoking joyfully?

Could there be a reason behind
that smile?

Hi, sir.
- Hello, sir.

GL CEO hails from our native land.
It's a pride for us, sir.

Word is spreading that you bought
your vote for a price.

I don't need to feel ashamed of having
to buy a vote that belonged to me.

The nation must be ashamed.

I only paid my lawyer.
Not the judge.

It's only one vote.
With it, what...

"Am I going to accomplish"?
Right?

Yes, sir.

See that?
He's a reporter!

He asks me what I can accomplish
with just one vote.

Someone else claims to be
Sundar Ramaswamy and casts my vote.

The government deems it valid.

If I just stand back
and gawk at it...

...how will a woman trust me enough
to marry me?

So, those who do nothing
when another man...

...casts a vote that belongs to them...

...also do nothing when someone
misbehaves with their wife?

Absolutely.

Are you looking to provoke others
who've also had their votes stolen?

Who asked that question?

Clap for him.

I'm provoking them, my friend!

You're correct.

When I reclaimed my vote,
it became a law!

When a verdict is reached
in a case...

...the same can be cited and reached
in every similar case that arises!

Whatever I received,
will be given to everyone!

Despite knowing Section 49-P exists...

...what if they choose not
to reclaim their vote?

If one lets someone else
cast their vote...

...I already mentioned
what kind of people they are.

There's a manner of saying that.
Why utter it so haughtily?

What to do?
Half of our people have no brains.

How dare you say that
we have no brains!

Who do you think you are?
How can you say such comments?

Please don't make a mockery...

Sorry! Sorry, Please sit down.
I apologize.

Please forgive me.

Half of our people are intelligent.

That is true.

Do you see that?

What I just said,
was what I said before.

At first, you created a ruckus.

Now, you remained quiet.

Similarly, when the same thing
is said in a negative tone...

...the reaction will be immediate.

That is called 'marketing'!

How haughty he is!
Talks so cheekily!

Someone else cast my vote, too!

Per Section 49-P,
they must return my vote, too!

As if only he's special!

He likens selling your vote
to giving up claim of your wife!

When you look up
Section 49-P on Google...

...a detailed description
of it comes about!

"When a verdict is reached
in a case..."

"...the same can be cited and reached
in every similar case that arises!"

"Whatever I received,
will be given to everyone!"

Any video when clicked
plays one of his speeches first!

It's been set up that way!

He works over there, right?

A corporate guy came here
to reclaim his vote!

So many votes in Kallakurichi
were cast illegally!

We must reclaim it, too!

So many votes in Pollachi
were cast illegally!

We must reclaim our votes!

Several people
are willing to file a case, buddy.

Unfortunately, they have no money.
We'll still take it up!

Trichy Law College students
have opened a website.

If a vote is illegally cast...

...they'll file a case
if we will provide Aadhar...

...and voter ID data.

Send me that link, aunty!
Some hooligan illegally cast my vote!

Sir, people have crowded...

Hold on! Have your Aadhar card
and voter ID handy.

You can all file a case!

Twenty eight thousand people
have filed cases!

That number is rising!

"Before Mr. Masilamani could stake claim
to form the government..."

"...lakhs of people have filed cases
that their votes were cast illegally!"

"Through an app developed by students
of the Trichy Law College..."

"...over three lakh people have
filed cases with the High Court..."

"...to count their votes!"

My God! Three lakh thirty thousand
people have filed cases!

Only now do I realize...

...how major a role illegal voting
has played in this election.

Three lakh and sixty thousand people
so far, sir.

They've asked to reclaim their votes!

Good.
- Thank you, sir.

These are junior associates
of advocate Jethmalani.

Along with my case,
they'll be handling this one, too.

For now, see to it that no one knows
that I'm behind this.

Hey, guys.

I've called you all
for an important reason.

This is my hometown.

A problem has cropped up
during this visit.

It may take a week for me to return.

I have a lot of work here.

So...

Therefore, all of you can go back today.
At this very moment.

Mr. Sundar, we guess you're in trouble.
But you need us.

Sir, don't worry.

Till the time that we are here,
nobody can do anything to you.

Is that so?
- No, sir.

Even when we're not here,
no one can touch you.

Okay.

Get going, all of you.

I've already left word that I'll return
once I wrap things up here.

Got spooked by the girl's warning.

You shouldn't have let it go this far.

2,000 people
per constituency filed cases.

Why did you not bring this up before?

Didn't expect this to happen, Appu.

The swearing-in ceremony
is set on the day after tomorrow.

He must not create a ruckus.

It must be done tomorrow.

You're not even in power yet
and want to murder already?

Killing a guy isn't always
the solution, Mr. 'Rendu'.

If a person is killed...

...the party must utilize it
to strike fear for six months.

He must be shredded limb by limb.

I'll call you after it's done.

The police must not come right away.

Let the body lie in the street
for a while.

Let people take pictures of it
and circulate it on their phones.

Only then, will others be afraid.

Doth thee feeleth attraction
towards me?

What happened to you?

You were okay, right?

Speaketh!

Doth thee feeleth attraction
towards me?

At each moment,
did want to asketh thee.

But 'tis so rare to findeth thee alone.

So why talk like this?

The children studieth
in an English medium school.

Thus, a secret best be spoketh
in classical dialect.

Classical Tamil to discuss secrets
in Tamil Nadu!

That too by a politician's daughter!

Just a minute.

Did they order you to kill your target,
or just to assault and scare him?

If your orders are to scare him,
tell them I'm terribly frightened!

Yay!
- Yippie!

They didn't tell us to scare you.

They told us to finish you off.

Not just you.

Lay a hand.
- What?

Lay a hand, I said.

Hey!
- You...

You should not stay here anymore.
Go back to America.

Really?

Is that so?

Really?

Keep him under watch!

Don't capture him!
I'm on my way!

What happened?

We found the man responsible
for all of this.

Who is it?
Your father?

No!
Not that!

We have located the whereabouts
of the guy who cast your vote!

Who is that guy?

I'm dying to meet him myself!

Buddy!
Only booze ruins a household, right?

Fermented rice just cools you down!
How can it burn a home?

Anything that has alcohol in it
can ruin a home. Got it?

What is this? Two baldies
and a guy wearing two shirts?

He is the guy, sir.

What is a multiplex audience member
doing in a rundown theatre shack?

What is it, man?
My goodness!

Why strike me like that?

Your blows took all the high
off me! What's up?

I saw you on TV.

Asked for your vote back, right?
Never mind!

Tell me the reason why you hit me!
He asks for a reason!

Why did you cast my vote?

Your vote?
What's your name?

What, man?

You cast my vote
without knowing my name?

I've cast a thousand votes
without knowing people's names, bro!

You're one in a thousand!

Can we sit down and talk?
Have a seat.

Tell him, baldie!
He hits hard!

How much did they pay you
for that vote?

Six thousand.
Plus an additional 200 for travel.

For that one vote, I flew here
in a private plane with bodyguards, man!

For such a small task,
why bring 'Bodyguard' God Muneshwaran?

"Bodyguards" mean security guards, man!

Security, he says!

Listen up!
Do you know who is responsible...

...for making everyone here
to beg for votes?

Me!
- My foot!

By the way, I'm Kaushik.
Glad to meet you.

My father.

Hey!
Get that pot! Get it!

Here. If you want our friendship to
last... ...empty that pot into your mouth!

I don't even listen to me!
Do it!

Forget the side dish.
We'll give dry fish!

I drank out of that pot, man.

I didn't sip it, bro!
Now drink!

Gulp it down.

Damn, you drink so quickly!

Never had a drink before this?

Superb!

What next? After breaking that pot,
break into a song!

Why ask him that?

He's American, man!
He'll only sing English songs!

Hey!
- What is it, bro?

I only work abroad!

But, my core
is as local as it can get!

Knew it from the way you struck me
when you got here!

You must know this place very well!

In order to prove that you're local,
I'll tell you a few words.

Translate them
into our Chennai slang!

Why keep that empty pot
in your mouth? Put it down!

Drop it, I say!

Shall I ask you?

Here we go.

Let's rock!

Get this joint buzzing!

Hold on, man.

Big shot!

A total stud!

Watch!
He'll get busted now.

We must rule this world, my friend!

We oughta rock this world...

...my homie!

Superb! Fantastic!

From today, I'm your friend!

What next, bro?

Start your song!

'We gotta scare the swindlers,
away from us!'

'We oughta rock this world,
my homie!'

'Get this joint ready to rock and roll,
buddy!'

'I'm mangy and tangy, darling!
Mess with me and I'll leave you hanging!'

'Attention, troublemakers!
Back off and get down on the floor!'

'I'm mangy and tangy, darling!
Mess with me and I'll leave you hanging!'

'Attention, troublemakers!
Back off and get down on the floor!'

'Try messing with
this charming audacious guy.'

'I've earned my place here!
I'll wrap this up and go about my day!'

'This gutsy guy
is still alive and kicking!'

'Gonna throw a feast!
Just buckle up and enjoy!'

'We gotta scare the swindlers,
away from us!'

'We oughta rock this planet,
my homie!'

'Get this joint ready to rock and roll,
buddy!'

'I'm mangy and tangy, darling!
Mess with me and I'll leave you hanging!'

'Attention, troublemakers!
Back off and get down on the floor!'

'I'm mangy and tangy, darling!
Mess with me and I'll leave you hanging!'

'Attention, troublemakers!
Back off and get down on the floor!'

'Cross my path and you're done for!'

'Come forth, your majesty!'

'Give forth kisses aplenty!'

'Was it the moon
that took to hiding?'

'Was it the dream
that took to blooming?'

'I'm mangy and tangy, darling!
Mess with me and I'll leave you hanging!'

'Attention, troublemakers!
Back off and get down on the floor!'

'Cross my path and you're done for!'

'Let's play and have fun!'

'Dive from that height
and you're dead meat!'

'All is joyful
in the kingdom we conquered!'

'Flash those naughty smiles!
Don't be spooked!'

'Let's rock the world!'

'Let's groove to this funky beat!'

'We gotta scare the swindlers,
away from us!'

'We oughta rock this planet,
my homie!'

'Get this joint ready to rock and roll,
buddy!'

'I'm mangy and tangy, darling!
Mess with me and I'll leave you hanging!'

'Attention, troublemakers!
Back off and get down on the floor!'

'I'm mangy and tangy, darling!
Mess with me and I'll leave you hanging!'

'Attention, troublemakers!
Back off and get down on the floor!'

'Cross my path and you're done for!'

Calm down!
All of you!

Listen to me!

They've called a ban
on the swearing-in event.

3,000 folks in my constituency alone
have filed cases!

Cases are being filed in all towns, sir!

They want a stay
on the swearing-in ceremony!

The hearing is at 10:00 AM!
We must do something big before that!

Party members are fuming, sir!
Let's annihilate those who filed cases!

We must start a riot
to stop the hearing!

Calm down!
Calm down, I said!

Will you be quiet or not?

Yes, dear?
- Emergency meeting, huh?

Yes, dear.

A case has been filed, asking to halt
the swearing-in ceremony.

Its hearing is at 10:00 AM tomorrow,
at the court.

What have you decided?

A riot must be instigated
to stop the hearing.

If everyone reclaims their votes
like he did, it'll cause huge problems!

No need for riots, dad.

Why, dear?

A riot will serve no purpose.

I already told you all
not to mess with him.

When is the hearing?

10:00 AM tomorrow.

You must be sworn-in
at 8:00 AM.

My dear...
- The hearing is at 10:00 AM.

You must be sworn-in at 8:00 AM.

We must first come into power.

Once we do...

...call an emergency meeting
of High Court judges...

...and convene them all.

The case will be delayed
by a day.

Have the Home Secretary declare...

...that the High Court building
is unstable.

And the next week
will be spent on its maintenance.

That one week will suffice.

We'll make everyone withdraw
their cases.

Alright, dear.

Call the Governor.

You must be sworn-in
at 8:00 AM tomorrow.

Alright, dear.

"The case of over three lakh people
who asked to reclaim their votes..."

"...will be heard in the High Court
at 10:00 AM."

"We have just learned
that at 8:00 AM..."

"...the government of Mr. Masilamani,
will be sworn-in..."

"...at the Governor's Residence."

Hello, Sundar.

I've almost reached the Bar Council.
Will be at the Chamber at 10:00 AM.

Not 10:00 AM. Our case has been
rescheduled to 8:00 AM.

At 8:00 AM?
How?

Before the swearing-in ceremony...

...in the recent Karnataka
state election...

...a verdict was reached at 2:30 AM
and the ceremony was stopped.

I cited that case
and acquired us an advance hearing.

That's fantastic.
I'll be there in ten minutes.

Come here!
- Yes, sir?

Their hearing was scheduled at 10:00 AM.
How did it begin early?

An advance hearing...

Don't just stand here!

I'll check!
- Look into it!

Because of you, about 2,000 people...

...per constituency
are seeking to vote again.

They're not asking to vote 'again',
Your Honor. They haven't even voted yet.

He doesn't know our language, too!

This unconstitutional election
must be deemed invalid.

A re-election must be done!

A re-election is no joke!

So much work involved!
Know how much it costs?

To nab a thief who stole
a thousand rupees...

...the cops spend ten thousand rupees.

Thinking you'd save nine
thousand rupees... ...if you

let him escape, he'll be a
thief for life, Your Honor.

This isn't the time for budgeting.

But, the time to save the people.

What say you,
Election Commissioner?

When he said his vote
was cast illegally...

...we gave him another vote.

Now, several people have come forward
claiming their votes were stolen, too.

We can't let him reclaim his vote
and deny others from reclaiming theirs.

Almost two thousand people
per constituency have filed cases.

Several constituencies have been won
by a margin of 800 to 1,500 votes.

There is now a chance to change that!

Not only that, Your Honor.

The illegal votes cast so far have...

...also been included in vote counting.

How can they be removed?
Or even deducted?

In the previous Tamil Nadu elections
in 2016...

...just 2,60,000 votes made
the difference between...

...the winner and the loser.

But, those who filed cases this time,
amount to 3,45,000 people.

You asked for a delay
for their swearing-in ceremony.

But, the ceremony is ongoing
at the Governor's Residence.

Thus, the urgency, Your Honor.

I'm very much happy to
meet you all. You all know...

...how qualified our Chief Minister is.

Election Commission
has the power to do that?

In 1975, the then Indian Prime Minister,
Ms. Indira Gandhi...

...won the Rae Bareli constituency.

Citing foul play in that election...

...the Allahabad High Court
dismissed her from Parliament.

Trust in democracy remains only because
of an election every five years...

...and rightful verdicts
that are occasionally meted out.

Because of an unethical few...

...the people must not lose faith
in Indian democracy, Your Honor.

And now...

...Chief Minister...

You all know...

Our Chief Minister is well qualified.

How much good he's done for us all!
- Sir...

Governor's personal assistant, right?
- Yes, I'm.

Where is that call coming from?

From the court.

He is a Delhi guy.

You're from our town.
Turn your phone off.

"I, M. Masilamani..."

I, M. Masilamani...

"From this day..."

From this day...

"Of this state..."

Of this state...

Excuse me.

Yes?

Sir, CM is waiting.

Just a minute.

Sir...

The leader is waiting.

The thing is...
inauspicious time is near!

Will you please go and wait?

Tell me.

Okay.

Mr. Masilamani...

The High Court and Election Commission
just made an announcement.

The Assembly Elections conducted on
February 22nd 2018...

...has been cancelled.

The next election...

...will be conducted...

...within...

...the next fifteen days.

And in this situation...

I'm so sorry to have to cancel
this ceremony, midway.

Thank you all.

Our victory,
has simply been postponed.

Our next course...

...of action will be decided
at our party headquarters.

Please disperse peacefully,
all of you.

Thank you all very much.

My dear! Just a minute!
Here you go!

My dear?
- What did you do to him, dad?

Re-election is in fifteen days.
How can we do anything now?

The entire nation is watching, dad.

If we stay quiet...

...the court's declaration
will be deemed true.

Huge riots must take place!

Plaintiffs. Opposition party members.
Everyone must be afraid!

One more thing.

If we spare Sundar today,
he'll go back to America.

He'll return in fifteen days
to cast his vote.

If we do something to him then...

...it will affect us in the polls.

We can't even chop his nails
in America.

He must be done in today.
Right now.

It must appear
as if citizens and students are rioting.

Do not spare him, dad.

After killing him, our party's reign
must go about peacefully for ten years!

Our opposition. Our allies.
Everyone must be afraid of us!

Even our party members
must bend at the hips and bow to us!

I see that your work is done.

Leaving to America, it seems.

Mom! Why drudge this up
just when he's leaving?

If he didn't cast this vote,
he'd have no respect in his company!

For this one thing,
how much of a ruckus you created!

How much planning!

Stay back and watch the fireworks
that are about to begin!

Come with me, mom.

Hi...

Sundar uncle!
You've come?

You said you'd fix this,
didn't you, uncle?

I will fix it, dear.
I will.

Hey, sis! I told you
that uncle would fix this, yes?

Yes, dear.

When will you fix it, uncle?

When it heals a little more,
I'll fix it. Okay?

Come.

Here you go.
- Thank You.

What grade are you in?
- Third grade.

And you?
- Second grade!

Grade one.

Did you like the gift?

The face of that girl
is the present fate of Tamil Nadu.

How much agony would you be in
if your child is even slightly burned?

Her own father...

...poured petrol on his family...

...and burned with them.

Mom...

The heart of that father...

...when he brought that flaming match
near a little child's body...

How much agony would it
have been in?

Who made him take a loan
at exorbitant interest rates?

Come along, mom.

Each person in these beds
isn't a patient, mom.

Each of them is a department.

This gentleman here...

...is part of a family of six,
including his parents.

He's the sole breadwinner
for the family.

Having worked overtime
and on holidays...

...he's been bedridden
for four months.

Nothing major.

While riding his bicycle,
a government bus collided with him.

Because they appointed an
unqualified person as a driver...

...as they were angry at employees
in the bus transport service...

...this man lost both of his legs.

Department of Transportation.

Even small countries develop
high tech trains and planes.

But here, a mere electric wire
torn by rains, killed three children.

When he tried to save them...

...this daily wage worker lost
both his hands.

Department of Electricity.

Can a tragedy of eighty seven deaths
in a span of one month...

...due to mosquito bites
happen anywhere?

Dengue fever.

See that?

Another child is fighting for his life.

And this?

Department of Public Works!

Public Works! Transportation!
Education! Electricity! Agriculture!

There is a department
behind each of their woes, mom!

Politicians think
they can do anything...

...for the five years
when they're in power!

I did this to stomp this arrogance
out of them!

If they come back,
I will strike back again!

That's all. I don't care about anyone.

"As the High Court
has not ruled in favor..."

"...of ex-Chief Minister Masilamani..."

"...his swearing-in ceremony
has been halted by the Governor."

"Owing to that, all stores are closed
across the state."

"As riots have happened
in few places..."

"...people are confined to their homes.
A panic has erupted."

It appears no one is at his house!
When I get hold of him, he's done for!

Come along, guys!

Search every single room!

Yes?

Stop that car!
- Get out!

Hurry up!
- Get moving!

Move aside!

Hurry up!
- Open the door!

What is your problem?

Search the entire place!

Spare no vehicle!
- Check if he's in that car!

Search that car!

Tell them to get out!
- Get out, I said!

I don't care about that!

Reserve police will be here
in the morning. Kill him before that.

You've been searching for twelve hours!

You can't find one man!

And you dare ask me where he is!

Security!
Give me your walkie-talkie!

Main gate security.

Sir?

What's wrong over there?

A man named Sundar
wants to meet you.

Is anyone with him?

No, sir. He's alone.

Send him in.
- Yes, sir.

How many guys are about?
- Eighteen here. Twenty downstairs.

Send them all here!

Get the goods!
- Hey, get the goods!

Hey!
Call our lawyer!

The lawyer's on the line, sir.

Varada?
- Yes, sir?

That Sundar chap
is in our party's office.

He's on his way inside.

Would any legal issues arise
if we killed him here?

Within the party's office?

Please wait until you hear from me.

I'll call back
after consulting with a senior lawyer.

Greetings!

I know you've been looking for me.

Just dropped by
to have a little chat.

Don't listen to what your associates
have to say.

Law and media
are not what it once was.

It doesn't matter
when a crime is committed.

It is perilous.

It will simply never die.

The crimes that you people commit...

...are weapons
you provide to your enemies.

They will enslave you
with those weapons!

Money.

Never mind seeing the money
accumulated in containers so many.

They'll die without even seeing
those containers!

So, sometime in your old age,
an old crime you once committed...

...will land you in jail.

Think how it will be
when you're 75 or 80 years old.

It is agony.

Hey! Spare your sermons
for some schmuck who gives a damn!

This is a battleground!

What have you accomplished?

The swearing-in ceremony
has been delayed by sixteen days.

Once again, we will be victorious!

My leader
is a third generation politician!

Politics has been his life
for fifty five years!

No need for campaigns or meetings!
His face alone will suffice!

For fifty five years...

...that face has been embedded
in our minds!

My leader's face
is in every product and every scheme!

From free goods to trash bins,
all bear my leader's face!

That is our brand, dear boy!

You know about branding, don't you?

Our leader's face is our brand!

With it, even if a dog or a donkey...

...represents us in an election,
we will win!

Care for a demonstration?
This is a challenge!

My goodness...

This is too much.

Mr. 'Rendu'!

When you can be so arrogant
when being in the second place...

...with a name
that equates to a second fiddle...

Having passed on merit,
being selected in an interview...

...and working in the number one country
at the number one company...

...at the number one seat,
how much arrogant would I be?

Always be careful
when laying down a challenge.

What was that you said?

Branding, was it?

After all,
I'm a specialist at destroying brands!

I'll lay it down now, Mr. 'Rendu'!

That number one guy above you...

Your beloved leader, that is!

I will destroy that brand.

Even if your party wins again...

...I will not let your leader win!

Whichever constituency he contests in,
I will compete against him directly!

Watch as I rip that brand into shreds!

Lawyer said we can proceed.

Kill him!

I killed him, bro.

Hey! Let him go!
Let him go!

Let him go, man!

What is it, dear boy?

You intend to contest against me
in my constituency, eh?

Think this is a computer game...

...that is played
in an air-conditioned room?

Involves a lot of blood, pain and life!

I'll show you
what a political game really is!

I'm waiting!

What are you saying?
- Yes, sir.

That Sundar chap
came here last night!

He came and met
Mr. 'Rendu'.

The main block is far away
from the gate.

Don't know what they talked about.

I think they had a discussion
for about forty minutes.

After that, I went home.

I'm very happy, man!
I'm ecstatic!

'Victory shall be mine!'

'And the credit for that
shall go to my daughter!'

'It shall go to my daughter!'
- What's up, dad? You're singing?

The thought of my son-in-law
makes me to break into a song!

Whom, dad?
My sister's husband?

Thought he made you mad...
- Not him!

I meant your groom!

What?
"My groom"?

Last night, that GL groom you love...

...met with Mr. 'Rendu'
at the party's office.

Really?
How do you know?

Don't I have a sleeper cell
at the office?

You, too?
What does that have to do with this?

Your beau met with Mr. 'Rendu'
and came to a compromise!

He must talk to the Chief Minister...

...and get me ten
Legislative Assembly seats.

'Victory shall be mine!'

The GL groom! If I did anything wrong,
I must seek his forgiveness!

Welcome, son-in-law!
Come on in!

I came to seek your forgiveness, uncle.

"Forgiveness"?
Why speak such grand words?

First, come on in!

The thing is...
- Welcome! How are you?

I'm fine.
- Hello, uncle!

They won't let me talk!
Get back inside!- Hi.

Do not be bogged down
by the past.

On an auspicious day,
bring over the elders of the house.

We'll finalize everything.

How about that, dear?
Is that fine?

Jeez!
Stop it, dad!

She's leaving angrily!

She's not leaving angrily.
She's coyly waltzing away!

I paid a visit to your party's office
last night.

I heard about it!

I met Mr. 'Rendu'.

I have decided to contest
in the election, too.

You, too?

I didn't know, dear boy!

You've joined our party, too?

Please have a seat!
I'm very happy to hear this!

Please speak to our leader and get me
ten seats at the Legislative Assembly.

I can't speak to your leader about this.
- Why?

Because I'm contesting against him
in his own constituency!

Oh!

'O, those eyes!
They are so great!'

'Each, an alias for the moon!'

'O, dear breeze!
Hug and kiss me, like a breeze!'

'And then as a mighty gale.
I'm your Cinderella!'

'Oh my God, dear girl!
I love you, my darling!'

'Come along with me,
as soon as possible!'

'You are the one before anyone else!
I'm your best friend forever!'

'Shall we roll on the floor
with laughter together?'

'In my opinion,
you ogle at thousands of girls!'

'Tell me how much you love me.
I don't know the answer to that!'

'In my opinion,
you are the only beauty, O better half!'

'Never even move a millimeter away!
Keep in touch, always!'

'I don't know how
I would live without you!'

'O, those eyes!
They are so great!'

'Each, an alias for the moon!'

'O, dear breeze!
Hug and kiss me, like a breeze!'

'And then as a mighty gale.
I'm your Cinderella!'

'Oh my God, dear girl!
I love you, my darling!'

'Come along with me,
as soon as possible!'

'You are the one before anyone else!
I'm your best friend forever!'

'Shall we roll on the floor
with laughter together?'

'In my opinion,
you ogle at thousands of girls!'

'Tell me how much you love me.
I don't know the answer to that!'

'In my opinion,
you are the only beauty, O better half!'

'Never even move a millimeter away!
Keep in touch, always!'

'I don't know how
I would live without you!'

'O, those eyes!
They are so great!'

'Each, an alias for the moon!'

'It instantly is a good morning,
when I look at your face!'

'I doze off into my dream world,
when you lean over me!'

'Hilarious texts exchanged over the phone!'

'You are my sweetheart, for sure!'

'When I'm out of town,
I need your 'How are you's!'

'I want kiss and miss emojis
five times a day!'

'Any day I meet you,
is my happy birthday!'

'If you cuddle with me all the time,
that would be so sweet of you!'

'O dear girl!
Quite the taskmaster you are!'

'Shall I say 'Thank You?'
Such a cute girl, you are!'

'Shall I take care of you, dear girl?
Together, shall we live our lives?'

'Oh my God, dear!
I love you, my darling!'

'I'll come along with you,
as soon as possible!'

'You are the one before anyone else!
I'm your best friend forever!'

'Shall we roll on the floor
with laughter together?'

'In my opinion,
you ogle at thousands of girls!'

'Tell me how much you love me.
I don't know the answer to that!'

'In my opinion,
you are the only beauty, O better half!'

'Never even move a millimeter away!
Keep in touch, always!'

'I don't know how
I would live without you!'

'O, those eyes!
They are so great!'

'Each, an alias for the moon!'

'O, dear breeze!
Hug and kiss me, like a breeze!'

'And then as a mighty gale.
I'm your Cinderella!'

What's going on there?
Like something out of 'Jurassic Park'!

Styling, lady!

Kaushik!
- Boss?

Do you know why I keep you by my side?
- No, boss!

All the good guys and bad guys
in this city look alike!

Let me know if you have
friends or allies.

Will do!
- I must be careful with them!

What man?
- Come!

Here's where they laminate, huh?
- Yes!

Laminate like a photo, they do!
The word is 'nominate'!

Look at that face!
Like an empty shell!

Aware of election rules, yes?

This election is on
because he knows the rules!

Address proof?
- Address proof.

Passport. International driving license.

All original copies!

Birth certificate.
- Birth certificate.

Community certificate,
native certificate...

...Income tax certificate.

Pan card?
- Pan card, Aadhar card, credit card...

...Vote ID.

Even got a postcard for you.

Write a letter to your relative,
when you're free!

The picture in your Aadhar card
doesn't resemble your face.

Shut up, man!
I voted using that card!

What is he talking about?

Must I look like how I do
in the Aadhar card, or vice versa?

Your face must resemble the face
in the Aadhar! It doesn't here!

Whose fault is that?

It is... that department's fault!

What do you mean,
"that department"?

It is... the government's!

Listen up! A government officer himself
admits the government is at fault!

Did everyone hear that?

Oh dear boy!
Please don't ruin my career!

They've suspended twelve people
who allowed that illegal vote!

I've acquired a housing loan.
I pay installments every month!

Please go gentle, sir.

Ten people from your constituency
need to sign!

Look over there, darling.

If those ten folks are a problem,
there are another ten.

And if the next ten are an issue,
there are ten more!

Let me know if you need more guys.
We'll bring truckloads of them!

All details are thorough.

As soon as I leave...

...if I hear about spelling mistakes
in my application...

...being used as grounds
for rejection...

...I'll sue the lot of you
at the Supreme Court!

Tell us, Mr. Narayanan.

How would the clash between
Mr. Sundar and the CM be?

I know both of them very well.

The Chief Minister has thrice won
in that constituency.

By that same token,
Mr. Sundar is a corporate monster.

A real 'Genghis Khan'!

His strategy and tactics
would be frightening!

It's going to be a real tough game.

Nothing tough about it!

That chap is a fine young fellow!

But, he doesn't have the smarts!

He earns a salary
of eighteen hundred crore rupees!

He even wishes to earn more!

Gets free publicity over here!

Ask him how much his company stock price
has risen in these last two days!

It has definitely risen!

Is Mr. Sundar doing this
for his company stock...

...or out of his own goodwill?
Only he can answer that!

Really?

Mr. Sundar is on his way here.
He's coming on to the show.

When inviting, you said it would only be
the two of us. A live show, even!

We didn't expect this either, sir!

Rather than telecast my photo
and do this over the phone...

...I'm coming over in person!

Welcome, sir!
- Greetings!

He even went to the TV station, bro!

Where do I...
- Over here, sir. Have a seat.

Okay.

Tell me.

What are your doubts?

A guy over here can do nothing
with the vote he casts.

But, you toppled
the entire state assembly...

...with the vote you didn't even cast.

Pretty tact, indeed.

Plenty of marketing
for your company.

It's been proven that you'd do anything
for your company, right?

If that is your doubt...

...as of this very moment,
I resign as the CEO of my company.

How can he do this?

Don't do this, Mr. Sundar.

You being the CEO of GL,
makes this nation proud!

Are you serious, sir?

A small post in that company today,
is a dream for several Indians!

Are you clear?

That company is no longer mine.

Now what do you say?

These are all...

Moves like these won't help you win
against my leader!

The thought of no opposition,
is the biggest danger to a democracy.

Your confidence leaves me in splits!

Ours is a significant establishment!

You're just one man!

When tossed out of a train,
even Mahatma Gandhi was just one man!

Nowadays, one man turns into a group
and a group turns into one man...

...over the course of a single day, sir.

The chap's free as he left his job.
I've got plenty of work to do.

I'll get going.

Hey! Turn off the cameras!
Stop recording!

My dear boy...

I'll tell you this off the record.

People at the constituency are fuming...

...at the thought of you
going against my leader.

Don't go near Ayodhyakuppam.

In other places,
the only burn effigies of guys.

Over there,
they burn the guy alive!

Which place was that, again?
- Ayodhyakuppam.

My first meeting will be over there!

Gosh! The welcome is too grand.

Looks like they'll beat us up!

Let's avoid this gathering.

You can finish this at home on Twitter,
yes?

A lot more easier that way.

Just a suggestion.
- Calm down, please.

He said they'd burn guys
and split them to pieces!

Doesn't seem that way!

Listen up.

See how they're yelling
and not attacking?

There's a reason for it.

As you're up
for election in this region...

...demand for votes here has gone up.

Price of a vote has gone up
from 5,000 to 9,000 bucks!

You must remain alive
if they are to be paid!

Please remain calm, folks!

Please stay quiet.
Calm down!

Thank you.

This program is conducted
by us students of IIT.

It is being broadcast right now
on Facebook Live!

This is a fun program!

We didn't bring this man here
to cause trouble.

Right now, you're going to troll him.

Troll him however you like!

You're new to politics, right?

This must be their idea
of an initiation ritual!

Do you know the price
of a kilogram of tomatoes?

How much does a kilogram
of salt cost?

Do you eat salty food?

I see that
you are all in quite the trolling mood!

I honestly don't know the price
of a kilogram of tomatoes.

At least,
do you what a tomato looks like?

Hey!
Show the gentleman a tomato!

This is a tomato, sir!

Hey! No...

Brainless fellow!

Shall I tell you an interesting
crime story about this tomato?

In seven countries across the world...

...the sauce acquired from our tomatoes
is consumed with immense pleasure.

Tomatoes grown in our soil,
have an extraordinary demand worldwide!

But, there is a big mystery.

Those who cultivate these tomatoes,
keep dying over here.

Do you know why?

In the tomatoes cultivated here...

...a quarter of the produce
is deliberately allowed to rot...

...and is dumped in the trash.

Let's assume these two folks
each have fifty kilograms of tomatoes.

Despite the high demand,
I'll buy tomatoes from only one of them.

I won't buy tomatoes from the other guy,
even if I really need it!

The shelf life of a tomato?

Only two days.

Unaware of whose tomatoes
would rot first...

...both sellers would
be paralyzed with fear.

Right now, price is only what is quoted
by the tomato sauce manufacturer.

He'd buy tomatoes worth forty rupees,
for a mere six rupees.

Even then,
he'd only buy it from one dealer!

The produce of the other dealer...

...would rot and end up in the garbage.

As a foreign family
somewhere in the world...

...enjoy their meal
with tomato sauce...

...our agricultural families
over here...

...commit suicide and die.

Therefore, next time we decide
to fling tomatoes at someone...

...let us think about the farmers
who cultivated the crop.

What is it?

Why so silent, you guys?

If you want to troll me, go ahead.

I have a doubt, sir.

Ask me!

During election,
sometimes we vote for fun.

Other times, we get paid to vote.

But, why do you struggle so much
just to cast one vote?

You discovered
that a Section 49-P exists.

You toppled the government.
You resigned your job. Why do all this?

Shall I tell you the real reason?

Tell us!

My native place is Rameswaram.

Surviving between poverty at the shore
and the military at sea...

...our family
is one among a hundred fishing families.

There's no guarantee
of coming back alive if we went to fish!

The families of people who lost
their lives were forsaken.

Hunger struck every family.

Then, there was an election.

We didn't trust either candidate
in contention.

Without voting, they left for the sea.
My uncle went with them.

Only when they reached the sea,
did it occur to them.

Elected politicians wield the power
for five years.

But, the citizens?

They have power only for one day.

Realizing their mistake of going to sea
that day...

...they thought of going back.

It was at that moment...

...that the neighboring military
opened fire on these innocent fishermen.

In that attack,
my father...

Along with my father...

Thirteen people...

...died.

When those who survived the attack
tried bringing the wounded ashore...

...my bullet-riddled father said...

..."Don't take me back ashore."

"All the funeral arrangements
would cost two thousand rupees."

"My children can eat for two years
with that money."

"So...

"Take my body..."

"...and toss it out to the sea.",
he begged.

When he passed away...

...they tossed him.

Into the sea.

Usually, people only throw mortal
remains into the sea.

But my father himself was thrown.

Those who won that election
did nothing for anyone!

The fishermen's union
funded my mom's education.

She studied and became a school teacher.
She made us study, too!

I studied like crazy!
Harder than ever!

I attended every interview
that came my way!

Regardless of the city
or country I'm in...

...I always come back.

For elections.

One of you asked me, right?

"Do you eat salty food?"

Know this! I'm a fisherman!

Salt is in the very air that I breathe!

Sorry.

In this gathering...

Those of you not native to Chennai...

How many of you are from out of town?
Raise your hands.

How many of you wish to go back home?

Why haven't you?

They all came here to escape
hunger and famine from there!

You're from Rameswaram.
I'm from Pudhukottai.

I do wish to go home.

But, folks come here due
to hydrocarbon issues.

How can I go back?

I'm from Tirunelveli.
Loan shark issues!

I'm from Chengalpet.
Mercenary issues!

I'm from Thanjavur!
Methane issues!

I'm from Kanchipuram!
Sand mafia!

I can't get water
from River Cauvery.

River Krishna is inaccessible.

The Mullaiperiyar is of no help, either!

With all this, how can I go home?

Thirty two problems
across thirty two districts!

We've living as refugees
in our own hometown.

They'll even strip us of our clothes
if we continue to remain quiet.

One day, they must answer for this!

What was that you said, sir?
Please repeat it.

One day, they must answer for this!

When did you question them, sir?

Without asking questions,
how will you get answers?

Write down every problem they mentioned,
on a piece of paper.

Okay, sir.

I will ask questions!

To the Chief Minister Masilamani!

I will ask these people
who were thrice in power...

...when they'll solve these problems,
right now.

From here,
I'll go straight to him.

We can't go there now, sir.

Mr. Masilamani is at a party event.

It isn't safe to go there right now.

If I decide to ask questions,
my policy is to do it right away!

If so, we'll go with you.

We'll come, too.

We'll come along, too!

We'll come along, too!

Asking questions leads to trouble.

When asked directly, that trouble
will strike with a vengeance!

So...
- We'll come with you!

Then let's go!

How many elections have happened
so far?

How many mid-term elections?

Sundar is on his way here to meet you.

He's coming here?

What an idiot!

He's coming by motorcycle!

"Planting trees lead to rain!",
they say!

What kind of trickery is this?

Are the seas filled with trees?

It rains not over there!

If I say that,
they call me a fool!

Once the decision
has been made to end poverty...

...why make us suffer by only printing
just petty 500 and 1,000 rupee notes?

Once the decision is made
to print money...

...why not print
5,000 or 10,000 or 20,000 rupee notes?

Do you not know productivity?

Is our leader and this party
not pioneers of productivity?

Ask us!
We'll teach you all about it!

We have come together...

What is it?
Come to join my political party?

Or did you come to say
that you're leaving for home?

I have come for neither.

I came to ask questions.

You dare step on to my stage
and ask me questions, eh?

See the size of this crowd?

If I utter just a small word...

Don't even need a word.

If I make the slightest gesture...

...right here,
they'll rip you limb from limb!

Here are the thirty two key problems
from thirty two districts.

The public are in a state of poverty
and difficulty.

Announce over that mic that you swear
to solve them after the election.

And I will withdraw
from your constituency.

Simple.

If you're afraid,
just admit it and leave, my boy.

Instead of writing letters
like a schoolboy.

I can read Tamil.

Good thing I learned to do so!

What is this?

The very things we have relied on
to conduct politics for thirty years...

...you have written
on half a sheet of paper?

If we solve all of this,
poverty will vanish!

If there is no poverty,
will people take money for votes?

They must scrounge for food!

Their bellies must feel the pangs...

...and their ears must ring with hunger!

Only then,
for the five thousand rupees we give...

...will they come like dogs
to vote for us.

How in blazes will you understand
any of this? Here you go!

No.

You have misunderstood.

They can withstand hunger and poverty
only for a while.

Surpassing that, if you lay a hand
on their self-respect...

You remember, right?

"Jallikattu".

My dear boy...

...in Tamil Nadu, there are only two
main political parties.

One of them, is me.

The other,
is the guy speaking on that microphone.

Now, he came along with his party
and merged with my founding party.

Now, I have full majority!

Therefore, if your citizens
wish to vote in anger...

...they'll cast 100 votes
for the soap symbol...

...or 200 votes for the party
with a comb symbol! That's it!

If this majority was more than before,
these can be solved even quickly!

You lunatic!

Only with the money acquired
from all this...

...did I buy these people off!

234 members
of the Legislative Assembly...

...and 36 ministers!

Their source of income
is the paper in your hand.

What can you accomplish
by going against me in one constituency?

My party that will soon come into power,
is one that has no opposition!

Isn't that pretty unique?

I understand now.

I get that you're not
a political machine...

...but just a small wheel
in that enterprise.

Not just that sole wheel,
but the whole machine needs replacement!

I only wanted to contest against you
in your own constituency.

I'll tell you right now.

Not just in your constituency.

But in all 234 constituencies...

...I will have my people contest.

Flapped your gums too hard, sir!

Got that much money, do you?

You said I came to your gathering
and got caught, right?

When you arrived,
how big was this crowd?

Look at the size of the crowd right now!

Can you hear it?

Can you hear that roar?

Hurray!

Hurray!

This crowd came together
in one day!

Mr. 'Rendu'!

Nowadays, one man turns into a group
and a group turns into just one man...

...over the course of a single day.

Let them go!

Don't you dare...

Come on, hit him.

Who was that?

I'm letting you go, as you're a lady!
You can't bear the pain I mete out!

Don't tell a woman who bore two kids
that she can't bear pain!

Hit me, man!
Hit me!

Strike me!

Strike the hands that got money
in exchange for my vote!

Strike the legs
that ran after the promised free goods!

Strike the mouth
that questioned your brutality!

Does it hurt?
Does it hurt?

It hurts the same way for them!
It hurts the same way for them!

I'm sorry.

This is all my fault.

Don't cry!

Only today, did we learn that they will
hit us if we ask questions!

This pain must not go away!

I felt the spirit
of freedom fighter Kumaran in this pain!

It's nothing, dear boy.
It will heal if I apply turmeric on it.

Can we step forward
if we worry about pain?

I see you're all saying...

...that you're not hurting,
just for my sake!

I heard what a woman said in the crowd!

"Don't tell a woman who bore two kids
that she can't bear pain!", she said.

This is like the pain of labor, too!

Please bear with it!

A brand new...

A brand new Tamil Nadu,
will be born!

"The only discussion taking
rounds in Tamil Nadu today is..."

"...is the riot that transpired
last night..."

"...at ex-Chief Minister Masilamani's
meeting."

He's going everywhere in person!

News after news!
We couldn't follow him. Watch him only.

"As a riot had broken out
at ex-CM Masilamani's party meeting..."

"...political pundits have indicated
that the AIMMK political party..."

"...have fallen out of favor
with the public."

They're being hit like cattle!

What are human rights activists doing?

They can't hurt people like this!

Don't know if he's good or bad...

...but he's definitely interesting
to watch.

"Per a poll conducted
by Loyola College..."

"...52% of the people are in support
of Mr. Sundar Ramaswamy."

"He previously had an approval rating
of 4%, at a survey conducted yesterday."

I said I'd have
my people contest elections...

...in all 234 constituencies!

Election's just a few days away.

The public saw what happened yesterday
on TV and are reading it in newspapers.

They're very interested to know
what we're going to do next!

Look over there!

More happy news!

.200 to 300 people
per constituency...

...are ready to step up,
even before we asked!

I'll tell you what we must do next.

First, we need a place to work.

"A place"?
This is the place!

But, so many families live here!

Good grief, my boy!
Step aside!

Move aside!

Listen up!

Until the election is over,
this block is our office!

This block is for housing!

All of us together,
are one home!

We're all one family!

When we stepped out,
we ate and fought together, right?

Just like that!

Do you get that?
- Yes!

Our enemy?

Is formidable!

Yesterday, we were...

Naive and gullible!

Today, we are...

Infallible warriors!

'Until yesterday...'

'We were but, naive and gullible!'

'Until yesterday...'

'We were but, naive and gullible!'

'From today...'

'We have woken up as fighters, infallible!'

'Fighters, infallible!'

'From today, we are...'

'...fighters, infallible!'

'Fighters, infallible!'

'Fighters, infallible!'

'Fighters, infallible!'

'Fighters, infallible!'

'Fighters, infallible!'

'This is a one-vote revolution!'

'Do you feel the emotion?'

'This is a one-vote revolution!'

'Do you feel the emotion?'

All set, sir.

Sir...

Ready?
- Ready.

"First of all,
thanks everyone."

"I'll tell you why
I said that."

"I've gotten a lot of questions
about who will compete in each region."

"And about 200-300 people are willing
to step up to compete in their region."

"My thanks, is for them."

"You needn't fear
that it's another political party."

"Because this is neither
a political party, nor is it a brand."

"The citizens of each city are going
to decide their representatives!"

"We are going to find them!"

"Every city is a home
to several selfless social workers."

"They're there in your town, too!"

"They may be school teachers..."

"...retired military folk,
or young farmers."

"You must pick three people
per region."

"They'll claim to be uninterested.
Don't spare them!"

"It is up to us
to find our Kakkan and Kamaraj!"

"In that manner, you must pick
three people per region."

"Among them, we'll pick one."

"No personal interviews and whatnot!
Just Internet scan!"

"Old emails and messages they sent.
Old purchases."

"Old bills paid on time.
Traffic cases."

"School and college attendance rate.
Sincerity and health!"

"The way they treat their parents!
Exam scores!"

"We'll scan and see..."

"...if they've broken rules
or paid any fines..."

"...and pick an honest..."

"...and qualified person
in your region to lead us all!"

He is a real corporate monster.

Get ready, folks.

"Seek out and find
the leader of your land!"

"This is our government!"

'To wipe out poverty...'

'...make every effort!'

'Is wiping away the poor...'

'...your only strategy?'

'We have the fire to strike back!'

'Just wait until our fingers
get inked black!'

'Why did you sleep through your turn?'

'Cashed in your vote and now you yearn!'

'Having traded your honor,
what did you really earn?'

'This is a one-vote revolution!'

'Do you feel the emotion?'

'Won't the domineering fist shiver,
when we question injustice together?'

'Won't the fate written by the common man,
bring forth a new dawn?'

When will you fix it, uncle?

Farmer Iyyanar for Theni!

The teacher who protested against NEET.
Ms. Sabarimala of Tindivanam.

Mr. Fakkrudin.
We're from Rameswaram.

'Politicians abound
but they are mute like statues around!'

Mr. Sekar.
We're from Vedaranyam.

Social reformer, Kalki.
We're from Pollachi.

For the efforts of these youngsters,
who are backed by no party or emblem...

...to pick social reformists
to represent their regions...

...my best wishes to them.

Professor Fathima Babu of Tuticorin,
who fought against Sterlite.

We pick Mr. Narayana Krishnan
of Akshaya Trust...

...who feeds 450 people every day!

Mr. Ramesh of the Mugavari Foundation
in Attur...

...who provided higher education
for 350 people so far.

'This is a one-vote revolution!'

'Do you feel the emotion?'

'To wipe out poverty...'

'...make every effort!'

'Is wiping away the poor,
your only strategy?'

We've gotten a lot of positive reception
across social media. Just a little...

He's the one I told you about
on the phone.

My name is Rathnaswamy.

I'm a sign board artist
at Nagappatinam.

My friend, Muthukumar,
is a freelance reporter.

He ran a website
called 'Saattai.com'.

Ten days ago...

To be honest, he's been missing
since before the elections!

I filed a police complaint.
Still don't know where he is.

I went to his house yesterday.
His sister gave me a hard disk.

I was shocked upon seeing
what was in it!

After thinking of taking it to the cops
or the press, I brought it to you.

Right now, we are at 64%
in the polls.

This is a significant weapon
against Masilamani.

Right before the election...

...shall we do him in?

You scored the winning sixer
at the final ball in this war, bro!

Good job!

Long live our queen!

Long live our queen!

Long live our queen!

Long live our queen!

Long live Long live our queen!

What happened, uncle?

The thing is...

Get back inside, mom.

Through our friend Appu,
our leader had done some clean up.

A hard disk with that information
is with that guy.

I don't know when he'll release it.

If it is ever made public...

Give me just ten hours, dad.

I'll render him an invalid vote!

'Rendu' uncle...

Yes, dear?

Call for a press conference.

Dad's going to address the press.

He may be a corporate criminal.

I've been a criminal,
right from the womb.

They say people from my party
attacked the police!

Can the opponent in my constituency
come to my party's meeting?

Regardless, I let him sit next to me
on the stage.

You would've seen it on TV.

What was the need for him to summon
so many people and come to my meeting?

Watch this monitor.

Watch what he did two days ago,
when he came to my party's office!

Now tell me!

Who unleashed this anarchy?
Who propagated this violence?

Is he the one you want?

You cast aside the man who lived for you
for fifty six years!

At the mere age of fifteen...

...I protested against
and vanquished Hindi!

Today, you've gone over
to a suit wearing expat, haven't you?

Do you no longer like
this khadi shirt?

Tell me!
Tell me, everyone!

I'll die right now!

I'll tell you something else
much more important.

Only after taking 60,000 crore rupees
from two corporate companies...

...did he dismantle this government.

I'll provide details and documents
pertaining to it, at 9:00 AM tomorrow.

Sir!

Did he really do this
for 60,000 crore rupees?

If that much was given,
I'd have jumped to it myself!

What about evidence?

My daughter will handle that!

This is 6,000 rupees.
This is 2,000.

Everything set, Appu?

Yes.

Okay.

Ever seen an accident in person,
uncle?

Just in videos forwarded
over the cell phone and on social media.

We're going watch him get run over?
Splendid!

Have you ever met with an accident?

By God's grace, I have not.

Put on your seatbelt.

Why, dear?
- Put it on. I'll explain.

The accident...

...is not for him.

It's for us.
- Oh no!

Don't do this, my dear!

No need for this!

The vehicle has six air bags!

Don't do this!
- There's no threat to life!

Stop the car!

Call the senior doctor!

The poor girl is in pain!

You dare take a video of this?
Go get the senior doctor!

Hey! Leave!

Go fetch the senior doctor!

My dear!
Why did you pull everything apart?

Has it been recorded?
- This one's better.

My dear...
- Don't get tensed, uncle.

Everything okay?
Shall we go home?

Just a minute, my dear.

Why must we get into an accident
with our own car?

Only then, can he make away
with the suitcase!

You staged an accident
for the theft of a empty suitcase?

"Empty suitcase"?

Didn't it have the evidence
that dad talked about?

But, it had nothing...

"On the heels of the announcement
of ex-CM Masilamani..."

"...providing evidence against
Mr. Sundar tomorrow morning..."

"...a car that his daughter ****
was traveling in..."

"...met with an accident tonight
at around 9:00 PM."

"Per the surveillance footage
recorded in that street..."

"...the mysterious driver of the lorry
that caused this accident..."

"...took a suitcase
from Ms. ****'s car."

"Mr. Sundar Ramaswamy is suspected
of having committed this heinous act."

What is this?

Couldn't comprehend anything
when I heard of your accident!

I felt my life come back to me
only when I heard you were alright!

He's staging something big!
The public is furious at us!

It's fine that the people
are angry at him.

But, he has one last trump card.

He has the hard disk
of Muthukumar of 'Saattai.com'.

What if he releases it?

Before she deceives more people,
we must go public with that hard disk.

No one must talk about
the evidence in his possession.

Every street, alley, nook and corner
of Tamil Nadu must talk only about you!

Yes, dear.

News about you
must constantly fill the air waves!

Your birth. Your youth.
Your wars. Your everything!

Not just the CM
of the neighboring state...

Even the Prime Minister
must be at our gates!

Indeed, dear.

If we ever end up in jail...

That's it.

One corruption charge will become four.
And forty co-conspirators will be named!

The party will be fade into oblivion.

Even if we're not around,
our party must remain in power, dad!

Streets, bridges, stadiums...

...and universities should be
named after us!

Bronze statues and stamps
should bear our faces!

Will we get any of it
if we end up in jail?

What we need right now,
is a full sweep in this election.

Thought I'd lose the party.

Turns out that with it,
we're getting a regime, too!

"Rendu" knows everything.

He's been with me, you see.

Do not spare Sundar.

I know you won't.

"Owing to ex-CM Masilamani's death..."

"...his daughter ****
will contest in his place..."

"...at the Royapuram constituency."

Long live!

"Owing to the sudden death
of ex-CM Masilamani..."

"...all of Tamil Nadu has turned against
Mr. Sundar Ramaswamy."

"The notion
that Mr. Sundar Ramaswamy..."

"...is responsible
for Masilamani's death..."

"...is engulfing the state."

Go back, you evil force!

Go back, Sundar!

The election is near.

I don't know if we can release
the evidence we have.

She ensured this is no longer valuable!

The public is already furious at him.

If we accuse a dead man,
the anger against him will increase.

Here, any dead man is a martyr, right?

I need to speak to you privately.

There are no secrets here.

All are one.

You must be aware
of the present situation.

You can't even win over
a ward councillor.

At the polls, you're at 2%.
I'm at 98%.

I have a proposition for you.

You must leave for America today.

You must not be there
for tomorrow's election.

Anything else?

You've caused me a lot of trouble.

Or rather, you've helped me a lot.

You've helped me identify my enemies...

...across 234 constituencies,
by making them face the election.

234 cases are ready to be filed
against them.

Within a week
of the election's conclusion...

...watch what happens to them.

I'll hunt each one of them.

Suicides, accidents and other charges.
I'll mercilessly destroy them all.

Hey!

You claim that you're going to win.
So, why must I leave today?

You must take off without casting
your only vote.

That would complete my victory.

Impromptu leaders like you
must never come up again.

Your retreat from here,
will set an example to them.

I don't have the habit
of retreating.

You can get going.

If that's the case, after I'm sworn-in,
watch your guys die one by one.

Kiddo!

You haven't even won yet
and you're dreaming of revenge already?

Your dad?
Masilamani?

When he won the election
and was being sworn-in...

...as he was saying
"I, M. Masilamani..."

...we finished him.

Get going!

You need to win first.

Then, take up your post.

Let's think about this after all that.

Stand back and watch what kind of things
change over the course of a day.

I'm a corporate criminal!

I know you've been a criminal
right from the womb. Now leave.

Why are you standing still?

Polling's been going on for an hour
everywhere!

15% of votes have been recorded.

The election has begun!

It hasn't ended, has it?

Head over to the booth!

Polling began at 7:00 AM
and is going along vigorously!

Men, women and young voters...

...are enthusiastically casting
their votes.

Let's take a break, Anita.

Has this been confirmed?
- I think so.

"Breaking news!"

"It appears that the missing evidence
against Mr. Sundar..."

"...who is held responsible
for the death of ex-CM Masilamani..."

"...has been recovered."

"Journalist Saattai Muthukumar released
the evidence on his Twitter feed."

"He claims he has the suitcase
containing evidence against Mr. Sundar."

"This morning,
when he reached the office..."

"...of Mr. Masilamani's daughter
****..."

"...he claimed she said that
releasing such evidence..."

"...during an active election
was against the rules..."

"...and she honorably refused
to accept it."

"He said he would personally
release the evidence against Sundar..."

"...tomorrow morning,
once the election concludes."

Don't panic!

It was me
who tweeted under Muthukumar's name!

Sir...

What?

You posted the tweet made
against yourself?

We don't even know if we'll get 2%
of the votes! Why did you do this?

Guys...

We have six more hours at our disposal.

From now, every passing minute
is important to us.

Just do what I say.

Ask me, if you don't understand.

Okay?

Sundar's handiwork.

He claims to have evidence
against himself!

He's even gotten you a good name
by playing up your integrity!

Why is he tweeting
under someone else's name?

Despite reclaiming the evidence
that your father mentioned...

...they say you decided
not to publish it...

...as it was against election rules.

How could you take such a mature call?

Any information released
on Election Day...

...is against election rules.

Which is why I asked for its release
tomorrow, once it was over.

Ma'am, it's really nice.
- Thank you.

Madam, one more good news.

Muthukumar of 'Saattai.com'
posted another tweet.

He tweeted locations
of those money containers...

...that Sundar took
from multinational companies!

Containers of money?
That's our money, man!

Why does he claim it's his money?

Cases have been filed against Sundar
under three sections.

He is expected to be arrested today.

Far as the election goes,
he will definitely lose his deposit!

Down with Sundar!

As work is progressing
at the election...

...this mounting evidence
against Sundar...

...is deeply troubling.

As it is the time of election,
the focus of the people will waver.

And it will be against election rules.

Mr. Muthukumar...

When I met you this morning,
I told you...

...only to release this evidence
to the police, tomorrow.

I request you not to do anything
pertaining to this...

...just for this one day.

It's okay even if we lose this election,
sir.

Please stop tweeting, sir!

The police are looking for all of us!

My father's constantly calling me, too!

Couldn't you have told me this before?
I just posted another tweet!

Sir, what is going on?

He said there'd be a container of money!
All that is here, are corpses!

It's the body of Muthukumar, sir!

Muthukumar of 'Saattai.com'?
It appears he's been dead for days!

So Muthukumar isn't alive?

The lady claimed to have met him
this morning.

She confirmed the news of him giving her
the evidence this morning!

She claimed to have met someone today,
who died ten days ago!

"When I met you this morning,
I told you..."

"But, as he seems to be dead
for more than fifteen days..."

"...how could she meet him
this morning?"

"Multiple attempts to contact
**** about this, have failed."

It's 2:00 PM.

How much polling would be done
be now?

45% of polling is complete.

At the maximum, there'd be polling
of about 60%.

Don't worry, my dear.

Whatever he does,
we'll win.

"Some of you may have suspected..."

"...that Sundar
is probably behind all this."

Yes.

"Indeed, I'm."

From the first tweet I made...

...in the name of a man
who died fifteen days ago...

...that lady would've known
it was me.

But...

As she didn't know my next move...

...and knew that a dead man
wouldn't come back to life...

...she lied.

Not just that!

"The circumstances..."

"...of ex-Chief Minister Masilamani's
death..."

"...will soon be revealed
by a very close relative of his, live."

"That person..."

"...is Masilamani's wife."

"The young lady's own mother!"

"If some of you haven't voted yet,
wait for a while."

"Live at 2:30,
she'll make her statement."

"Vote after listening to it!"

Mom!

Mom!

Mom!

Mom!
- What is it, dear?

Mom is missing.

Mom mustn't speak up, uncle.

We only have four more hours.

If mom doesn't speak...

...I will put a new spin
on all that went down!

Mom!

Where's my mother?

She said she was going
to sir's grave.

I see that you're here early!

The reporters are on the way!

We have ten more minutes.

Haven't seen the news reader yet,
have you?

However long you wait,
no reporter will come.

Once the election is over,
news will definitely come!

Want to know the headline?

It's nothing!
Are you okay?

Just one minute, ma'am!

I'm not in the mood to fight right now!

I normally don't get angry,
but I'm mad as hell right now!

I won't hit you until you're hurt!

I'll hit you until you die!

Nila.

Try to get on Facebook Live!

Madam...

Tell the media
exactly what you told me, ma'am!

Are you ready, Nila?
- Yes.

Go ahead, ma'am!
Speak!

"My husband, Masilamani,
did not die of natural causes."

"He was killed by my daughter,
****."

I watched her give him a higher dosage
of medicine than he normally takes.

"I didn't try to stop her."

"Because he wasn't such a good man."

"I told these people about the murder
of 'Saattai' Muthukumar."

"If you let my daughter rule..."

"...she will sell out the entire state!"

Hold on.

This Facebook livestream
is broadcast on all channels.

I know that everyone is watching it.

So far, 53% of polling is complete.

Normally, voter turnout amounts
to only a maximum of 80% of people.

If we are to escape from this situation
right now...

...each and every one left must vote!

It is our only hope!

They're young kids!

What did they wish for?

Not just reporter Muthukumar!

So far, they've killed eighteen people
who questioned them on their crimes!

All of them are youngsters
like these kids here.

Besides having dreams of bringing joy
to the lives of others...

...what did they do wrong?

Where did they get the courage
to kill people like that?

They do not see us as human beings!

But, only as votes that they paid for!

"We take their money
and the vote we cast..."

"...make them this haughty!"

In such a big state,
only 45-50% of us vote!

10% of them are paid votes!
5% are illegal votes!

Another 5% in exchange for gifts!

20% of people decide who will rule over
100% of people! Is this democracy?

The least thing a citizen can do
for their country...

...is to cast their vote!

We only have three more hours!

This is not just for lazy folks
and for those sitting idle at home.

Even if you have
an important task to do...

...put it on hold and go cast your vote!

If you can't stand in a queue
for 30 minutes to press your finger...

...to cast your vote
for your country...

...you are a thief of the first order!

You are a criminal of the first order!

Three hours left!

If you let this pass you by...

...this situation will continue
for twenty years!

The country will regress
by fifty years!

Pick up your voter ID!

You remember, guys?
- One more.

"In the murder case
of ex-Chief Minister Masilamani..."

"...the AIMMK leader, ****..."

"...and 'Rendu' Malarvannan
have been arrested."

210 members of the Legislative Assembly!

Sans any party backing,
you contested alone...

...but have won as a team!

Who amongst you will you choose
as Chief Minister?

210 members of the Legislative Assembly.
210 symbols.

Would be surprising, indeed.

Who is the Chief Minister?

That's the next question.

Once again,
209 people need to be scanned.

The most qualified one
must be selected.

I said 209 people because...

...I won't be part of it.

The thought of no opposition,
is the biggest danger to a democracy.

I will be on the other side!

As the opposition party!

As the one who asks questions!

Sir, what are you up to?

This is a well thought out decision.
And it is final.

There's a former district collector
among you. Mr. Sarkunam, IAS.

I nominate him
for the post of Chief Minister.

All we had was fourteen days!

This was made possible
only because of youngsters!

If you go to other states...

...and ask who among them shed blood...

...and gave their lives
for their community...

...they'd point out to someone
who lived thirty or forty years ago.

But, if we ask that same question today
in Tamil Nadu the answer would be...

..."The youngsters
who shed blood this year".

Those folks who sacrificed their lives
last month!

Even if it is agonizing...

...I feel very proud.
