All language subtitles for Sammohanam

This is really good

But why come to us?
Why not a more reputed publisher?

No, sir, they tend to be
too commercial minded

I like your passion too, sir

Passion isn't the criteria

We are always struggling to get funds

Doesn't matter, sir
I don't mind waiting

But why can't you publish this yourself?

You look affluent enough to afford it

That's my father's money, sir

I need an identity of my own

I'll be happy if a publisher
like you accepts my work

My dream is to be launched
by 'Anaganaga' publishers, sir

In that case
let's do this

Within 6 months
An interesting concept

If you bring it to me-

Don't you see,
even we need good artists?

Money may be
a little this way or that

I'll pray everyday
for this magic to happen, sir

Here, my boy

'Anasuya'

[humming]

- My awesome 'Kannada' amma
- You came back just now?

Still making 'laddu'?
It's lunch time

I'm making this for Vatsala's grandson
His birthday tomorrow

I'll be done soon

- Your meeting?
- My 1st book will be published in 6 months

Anaganaga has made an offer

Taste this

Out of the world!

An international hand like yours

Instead of increasing your brand value
you're stagnating in this Bank colony

Brand means customers making
a beeline for our products

I shouldn't be begging them

Are you hungry?

Call your dad and sister

Lunch is ready

I'm almost done here

My dearest demoness

Hey Viju!

What are you up to?

I have 2 tests tomorrow
Botany and Dance

Preparing for both the exams

What about your meeting?

In another 6 months

...your brother's book
will be published

And create my signature
in children's world of books

'Children's book Illustrator
of the year award' for me

- Where is dad?
- Matinee show!

'I was an orphan stranded
You brought me home'

'Showered love on me'

[from the film 'Bangaru Papa']

'What more can any father do?'

Dad, lunch

'Bangaru Papa' the classic Telugu film

S.V.Rangarao

Legendary actor

Squeezes my heart with sadness

How can you watch it
for the 150th time and still cry?

Exactly why he is par excellence!

Can you name 1 actor
who can match him now?

Everyone delivers the same dialog

'Who is he?'

'Where did he come from?
Kill him now'

Yuck!
Hindi faces

Dubbed by someone else

Meaningless noises in nonsync

Let's eat

Poor SVR!

Is it necessary for you
to reach out to kids nowadays?

Which kid cries over a book?

You can only see iPads
or Smart phones in their hands

- Video games
- Otherwise TV or cinema

Don't blame cinema
What did cinema do to you?

Cinema is the main culprit
Crazy dance steps and violence

You think Mahabharata and Ramayana
were inspired by cinema?

- That's a different route
- This is the seed

Pass the 'laddu'

In 7D and 3D

Mobiles and iPads
Whatever the gadget

Cinema
Literature

Will never die
That's for sure

I agree about literature

Cinema...?!

You call this cinema?

Good and bad co exist in everything

So many of your artists who scribble
in the name of modern art

...are frauds who earn in millions

If you can't understand
is art meaningless?

If you don't like it
is cinema worthless?

Don't fight
It's individual preference

We aren't fighting, dear

Shouldn't he talk sense?

Go ahead and create masterpieces

Who is stopping you?

- I'll do it
- Actions speak louder than words!

Show it in-deed!

I can give you ideas
for your concept if you like

Ask you?

What's so funny?

You think I can't come up

You have no idea
of my creative skills!

A day will dawn when all of you
will eat your words!

'Sammohanam'

'Enchantment'

"For whose sake is this heaven?"

[song from 'Prem Nagar']

"This love-mansion"

Whose sake?

'Good morning, sir'

For whose sake?

For your sake, sir

My sake?
Who are you?

I am Das, sir

- Singer Yesudas?
- Plain Das, sir

Do you own this place?

I'm not yet cursed to work as
a gardener in someone else's house!

- What do you want?
- A house

We live here
We don't rent it out

I want it for a shoot

Film shooting?
In our house?!

Yes, my dear son

Really, dad?
Who is the hero?

Some actor called Kishore Babu it seems

Oh! Kishore Babu, huh?

His father is the producer

He has paid a hefty sum
to a heroine called Sameera

Or some such name he said

S...Sameera?!

Sameera Rathod!

Dad, she is gorgeous

Will she be coming here?

This is her house in the movie

Will you stop shrieking?

How did you agree to this?

Shoot for just 20 days
Should we vote to decide?

20 days...?
In our house?!

Why get hyper?
They will go about their job

Amma, they shot in my friend's place

'2 days, just 2 days
They messed up the whole place'

He has agreed to 20 days!

Tell them 'no', dad

They agreed to my conditions
Why should I say 'no'?

What conditions are you talking about?

[clears throat]

I told him if he gives me a role
I'll give our place free of charge

He agreed at once

Did you also hear what I just heard?

What did you hear?

My dad will be an actor
Wowww, dad!

Are you mad or what?

You'll act?
That too in a film?

What's wrong?
It's my childhood dream

- You've never told me
- What would you have done?

Made me a hero, huh?

'You're talking as if I missed out
on a golden chance?'

I'm telling you now, right?

What about your job?

[clears throat]

I quit a month ago and
took voluntary retirement

[splutters]

I didn't tell any of you though

For 30 goddamn years
I worked like a donkey for the Govt

I did well for myself

I educated him

I'm educating her

I have a nest egg saved up

I've built a home
we can be proud of

My sacrificing time is over

Only one

If I perform once
I'll be happy

Like the legend S.V.Rangarao

Like Dilip

Veteran actor Marlon Brando

Universal hero Kamal Haasan

Only 1 performance

You'll see for yourself

You won't understand
if I tell you

Then past 1 month, instead of
your office where did you go daily?

Studios, my dear

To meet producers

Don't I have to ask for a chance?

I showed them my album

You made an album also?

- When was this?
- Show me

Policeman, beggar,
Village head

Dad, you are simply sooooper!

Lawyer
Underworld king

Amma, wait
Let me see

When did he click these?
Didn't he tell you?

'I had no clue'

Do you need all this
when you're so old?

You are too sensitive by nature

Cinema...that world is horrible, dad

They will spin all kinds of tales and
lure you into a web of make-believe

You sound just like my father!

Only because I shouldn't behave like him
when you showed interest in Fine arts

...I encouraged you

If it had been your grandfather
he would've pushed you

...into Engineering,
MBA or Accounts

Being an artist yourself I thought you will
understand my dream of being an artiste

My art makes children happy, dad

It gives wings
to their imagination

I don't draw figures ridiculously dressed
prancing around in foreign cities

This is a sanctified profession, dad

The life these film folks lead is fake
Even their emotions

Shut up!

This is my house, my wish and
pleasure whom I grant permission to

I can even strip and do
a hot number if I want to

It's my wish

That isn't the poin-

Shut up!

I shouldn't act it seems
Not grant permission to shoot

It's my house and my dream

I will act in this film

Heroine Haritha cannot sleep
unless she does 'that' every night

Look at that!
Notice your reaction?

That's what we want

This will be the opening headline

If you click and open

Heroine Haritha cannot sleep
unless she brushes 4 times

Sensational news

90% websites mislead like this

Based on the rating, viewers decide
whether to book for a film or not

Shall we also start
a website like that?

I am bored to death
with this IT job

I've even come up
with a cool name

- What?
- Jobless.com

Suits you to the T

- How dare you!
- Like your misshapen face

Don't you deride me

They are shooting
a film in my house

- What the hell!
- When did you come?

Movie or TV?

Maybe it's a short film
That's put him off

Who is the hero?

Some chap called Kishore Babu it seems

Isn't he the chap trying hard to impress
Telugu audience for the past 5 years?

That's the chap
with the lousy face

Who is the heroine?

Sameera Rathod it seems

Are you serious?

How long?

20 days

We must launch Jobless.com

What's up with both of you?

You know him well enough, right?

He's quitting his IT job
and launching a website

Only cinema gossip
views and movie reviews

Website name
Jobless.com

If Sameera Rathod is in your house
I can add exclusive bytes, tips, clips-

Oh gawd!
Sky is the limit

Look! Not only overseas
My website will be #1 in outer space too!

We can share a room
What's your %?

Shut up

Why do stars drag you
like a magnet?

Their glamor, acting, dance
Everything is fake and awful

Why do you rush behind them?

They are ordinary humans like us

Stars are NOT ordinary people

If we can spend money to watch them,
they have something we don't

No one knows what

Beyond the secret of
the creation of earth

I'll tell you when I know
What is your share?

For 20 days, man!

sketch your crazy pictures here
Great idea!

I mean, children are like flowers

You can paint them as tomorrow's citizens-

Hey! Vijay
Listen to me

'Rani'

Is it okay?

There's a delay in lighting

Your house is simply soooper

'That's why I abuse, don't spoil
my mood early in the morning'

- 'Das sir, any problem?'
- Nothing, sir

Tell me the restroom to use

Sure, upstairs

The shoot has started

Hurry up

'It's a close up shot, right?
We need 2 baby lights'

'Balance the background with skimmers'

Aiyo! Broke it, huh?

It's made of terracotta?
No wonder it broke easily!

Hey! Who the hell broke this?
Move aside, I say

Told them to use
the 2nd restroom

- Look at this
- Broke, huh?

No big deal

Modern art without head or tail
Good that damn thing broke

How can you be like this?
Go and shower

Shooting will start now

Listen, lad

Bro...bro
No college today

Shooting will start
Go and freshen up

'Cook rice in this for the heroine'

That's my cooker, not yours

'How many times
should I tell them!'

Hey! Who are you?

It's okay, sir
Our owner's son

Sir, you want to use the restroom?

We occupied your room

Drinking coffee?

- We could've given you
- No need, sir

We'll serve you lunch
the 20 days we are here

Whatever menu you want

I won't take 'no' for an answer
Sir has agreed too

Look, he is discussing
the story with the writer

Regarding his character

Do that, sir
It's very good

What is he telling him?
Take a look

Everything is okay

Fantastic role
I'll tell you later

What the hell!
Give me a hand

Won't you let me relax for a minute?

Sorry, sir
Is everything okay?

I had to plead to get this place

You'll humiliate me

- I'll bear the entire expenditure
- No need

Make use of your brains
and eyes, enough

I'll tell the producer-

- What's your tearing hurry?
- They said heroine is coming

So you'll run over someon-

Oh gawd! She has come

Keep it in and switch on
the air conditioner

1 minute, sir

Sameera has come, bro

Take care of everything

Our heroine has come

Shooting will start in 40 minutes

Hey! Shot ready
Make it fast, quick

Entire schedule will be shot here

He is Mr Sarvesh

House owner

Look, how beautiful the heroine is

Why wear goggles at home?
Looks ridiculous!

- Not nice
- I'm going over there

I need to check the shots

'Where is my dialog paper?'

Almost done

Director will see it on that TV I think

- That's the TV?
- Monitor, ma

Can you see it?

- Tell her
- Madam, don't click any photo

- She's objecting
- Give it to me

- It's okay
- Give it

- What...?
- She doesn't like it, sir

Get lost!
'Don't overact'

Sir, you're creating a disturbance

Don't keep tapping your feet

[memorizing dialogs]

If you shift the frame a little to the left
you can get a better shot of the greenery

- What do you feel?
- Sir, don't disturb the director

I beg of you, sir
Kindly understand and cooperate

Vamsi, ready?

Can't you see a huge lizard
creeping up that wall?

Call yourself a cameraman?
Look at that lizard

Frame has to look good, right?

Cameraman will take care
Please don't interfere, sir

Please don't interfere, sir

What I'm trying to say is-

- Don't shout 'cut' etc
- Sorry, I was too tense

- Sorry, I was too tense

I've never seen
such a fat lizard in my house

such a fat lizard in my house
Maybe it came to watch the shoot

I think it loves to act too

I'll deal with you
after they pack up

after they pack up

'Didn't you tell me, father?'

'Only 1 wor daman needs
A whi piswha tabu ll he eds'

'Suresh, split the words properly'

- Only 1 word a man needs
- A whip is what a bull heeds

Not Daman & Diu!

'World Telugu Conference
is in this city now!'

I thought so too
What is this language?

What is Daman & Diu?

Forget it, sir
She is fluent only in Hindi

She is fluent only in Hindi
The dubbing artiste will improvise

Only 1 word a man needs
A whip is what a bull heeds

A whip is what a bull heeds
Your Telugu super star heroine!

While these heroines
murder Telugu...

murder Telugu...

...the poor Telugu girl
who dubs will improvise!

Why not pick a Telugu girl as heroine?

Please keep quiet

We Telugu actors don't get
to play the roles of father or villain

They stand behind these Hindi chaps
with folded hands and beg for these roles

- Beg...?
- Yes

You haven't even got your break, dad
And you're already complaining?

[muttering the dialog]

'Didn't you tell me, father?'

'Only 1 wor daman needs
A whi piswha tabu ll he eds'

'My betrothed is like a buffalo
Whip is the best option'

'What Kishore did was right'

'That's why I love Kishore'

'Shut up'

Shut up!

You must watch and learn, dad

'Only 1 wor daman needs
A whi piswha tabu ll he eds'

'Look at the plight of Telugu cinema'

She'll get an Oscar for sure!

'If a Hindi actor usurps
your role, it's wrong'

'If a Hindi girl steals
a Telugu girl's chance, is it okay?'

What's eating you up?

Stop this fight

That heroine is truly beautiful

'Her eyes, nose'

What perfect features!

Can't take your eyes off her face

Accept it, Viju

That's why people
go gaga over her

When we see such beautiful girls...

...we wonder if they ever
do normal chores

do normal chores
Brushing teeth etc

When is my scene I wonder

'Do what I say'

'If I like him, he'll be my son-in-law'

'He speaks Tegulu, not Telugu!'

That shot was sooper

But the Telugu was terrible

'If I like him
he'll be my son-in-law'

'Otherwise, chapter close, that's it'

I prefer the way he said it

Hey! Don't switch sides

Look there, Das is laying it thick!

I thought you can write only for A centers

But B & C will lap it up

Where was this fire
hiding all along?

We filled his wallet with fuel!

Stop pulling my leg

If we get a director
like our Surya...

...he's a demon who squeezes it out of you

What will he squeeze
until he gets it?

I want to discuss something

- What, sir?
- What about my scenes?

Aren't you the house owner?
Das told me about you

Wait and see, I'll pen a dialog
that will make you famous

Wait for a week

Entire film industry
will do a double take!

That's enough
Please start your work

I have some brilliant ideas too

If we put our heads together-

When did you come?

Just 1 photo with Sameera, dude

Hey, no
Get going

I missed out the 1st day
I've taken off today

Venkat & Ravi have also taken off

Introduce us and just 1 selfie

Is that my job?

Damn your website idea!

Not for my website
I don't even have WhatsApp followers

I was just frustrated with my job

- Come along, don't be mean
- 1st let's find Das

- What is it?
- Fans

House owner's son's friends
They want to click 1 photo

1 minute

- Sir, what happened?
- Relax, don't badger me

Come in

- Let me go
- I'll go first

- 1st I'll go
- Then me

I can't believe it

One with my goggles please

Sorry...sorry
Just a silly habit

- Dude, come
- It's okay

You'll look like a hero next to madam

Go, take a snap

Why did you embarrass me?

Me...?

Enjoy! Have fun

Yesterday

You and the others

Made fun of my Telugu

You are right

I'm try-ing to le-arn Telugu

Telugu is very easy

If you really try
you can speak fluently

That isn't the issue

You

I mean you, with respect

My Telugu dialogs

Can you teach me?

Me...?

Yes, you

I get confused with
formal and informal usage

Why...?
Don't you know?

I meant isn't Telugu
2nd language for this generation?

Not for me
I know Telugu

Then teach her

Till she shoots here
she'll speak Telugu properly

No one will tease her

You don't have a job

Your dad told me

'Chepparu'
Masculine

I am in between jobs now

But I will get one soon

I'm an illustrator for children's books

You draw, right?

Maybe not the Telugu
spoken in our films

Sa-lary

She says you'll be paid

I understood

Because you're an artist

You can

Understa-

'Authundhi'
Feminine

That's all
Just do this

Okay, I'll teach you

From tomorrow?

Where's my photo?

He has come out

What took you so long?

Of course it will take time!

Why?
- Must get the know-how, right?

Is it a brain box or a trash-can website?

You accept now
I have a tiny website in me

Shut up!
What did she want?

She wants me to coach her in Telugu

Coach her with all the dialogs daily

What did you say?

What else?
I agreed

That means you'll be with Sameera
from dawn till dusk!

Aww! Stop it

My mom sent it for you

Shall I wait outside?

'Undu-po'

'Undu' is stay, enough

- 'Undu chalu'
- Not both together

Just stay is fine

'Undu' means stay

Hello, 'cheppu'

I mean 'bolo'
Tell me

I'm shooting now

I can't talk right now

I'm working

'Why' means?

I told you not to badger me like this

Hey Kiran, get my smoothie!

Get lost!

'Kuthuru'

[rehearsing]

Not 'kuthuru'
'Koothuru', long vowel

'Koothuru' means...

[wrong pronunciation]

Goddess Shakthi

'Puttin-' gawd!

[memorizing dialog]

'Adhru'
Not 'adhu-ru'

Get everything ready
for the next scene

Where is Sameera?

I'll be back, dad

Anji, open the door

'Father, I love him'

Who do you love?

Me, right?

- I was rehearsing
- What...?

Falling in love, huh?

You can do that with me

If you teach me the scenes,
I'll teach you the dialogs

Are you that fluent
in Telugu to coach her?

My parents taught me when I was a toddler
not realizing it's a crime to do so!

So I became fluent

Let's watch your Telugu

When father and daughter
are arguing bitterly

You...as the heroine's uncle

Unforgettable character, sir

1st you're roaming like a rowdy

Then you become a Naxalite

After that you go to the Himalayas
and become a saint

Then you come back and
start a software company

Yours will be a pivotal role
of a millionaire

Sir, my character is out of the world

If you can give me
earth shattering dialogs to match

It will fall in place, sir

Like hail in a summer storm

'Professing my love is as natural for me
as it is for a dog to bark!'

'If you think I'm a toy breed
and threaten me'

'...I'll scratch you'

'If you scream
I'll pounce on you'

'If you provoke me...'

'...I'll sink my teeth into you'

'- Dad
- Shut up!'

'Manasa, what are you saying?'

'Then you are born to me by mistake'

'Birth of a girl is not
considered unlucky, father'

'It's the blessing of Goddess Shakthi'

'My bad karma, I was born to a father
like you who didn't want a girl child'

Hey! You aced it

Awesome job!

"You performed a miracle like lord Rama
You gave life to a stone called Ahalya"

Your coaching was perfect

House owner's son
is coaching her, sir

Really...?
is coaching her, sir

Then continue this

At the same time teach
our hero to speak Telugu too

Muddling up rhyming words

Absolutely no depth in acting

Sir...sir, listen

I've kept a Black Label
in the car for you

"Swirling thoughts all over love-laden"

"At the time when stars descend from heaven"

"Whirling thoughts all over love-laden"

"Time when stars in descend from heaven"

"Who will be the proper guide now
to tell me what to speak and how?"

"Instead of saying something"

"Prim & proper with a deliberate meaning"

"With banter in a friendly way
Forgetting time ticking away"

"Let's have a good time anyway"

"Swirling thoughts all over love-laden"

"Time when stars descend from heaven"

"To be ecstatic to this extent"

"Novel experience, never before felt"

"Don�t misinterpret please"

"Did you ask me at least?"

"I�m in some world of fantasy maybe"

"Reading into your smile, dearie
more than necessary"

"Even if that�s true, don�t tell me"

"I won�t be able to believe you really"

"Whirling thoughts all over love-laden"

"At the time when stars descend from heaven"

"When spoken, this doesn�t seem right"

"Like a sandstorm in sight
thoughts quicken in their flight"

"Maybe the 1st phase of love is like this"

"Intoxicating haze like a mist of bliss"

"When will this shyness within
unlatch my heart to let you in?"

"To express the snuggled words anew
in my heart�s atrium to you"

"Whatever this maybe
don�t think, let it be"

"You ignite desires within me"

"Swirling thoughts all over love-laden"

"At a time when stars descend from heaven"

"Who will be the proper guide now
to tell me what to speak and how?"

"Instead of saying something"

"Prim & proper with a deliberate meaning"

Thanks to this blessed rain
whole city is submerged

Madam, traffic jam
in your route very bad

- Big bad jam
- Like 'jamun' in sugar syrup!

All pot holes are full

Stay here tonight
and relax, dear

Yes, dear

It's pouring cats and dogs

Your BMW will turn into a submarine!

Most important, we share
screen space tomorrow

We can even read and rehearse

In our scene-

Freshen up and
get into your normal clothes

- I'll finish cooking
- We'll eat

You can sleep in your room

This look was inspired by Brando

Muscles, cuts, everything
I followed Brando blindly

Like it?
'A street car named desire'

Have you seen that film?

Your father or grandfather
would have seen it

- What, ma?
- Not a single vegetable

Just 1 dry drumstick
and 2 tomatoes

- I'll buy now
- Anything, but no cabbage or cauliflower

I'll cook for that child in my style

Only if a heroine comes
you'll cook a feast for us

- Stop teasing me, go
- I'm going

you'll cook a feast for us

- I'm going
It's raining
Watch your step

'Just because you�re my brother'

This is anger

Aggression

'Just because you�re my brother'

This is compassion

'Just because you�re my brother'

This is enmity

I can give any number of
variations like this

Everytime I witness my range
I get scared of my own self

Do you know what's surprising

'That too, several kilos of it'

Amma, see you

Let me also come with you

I'll come along with you

It will become an issue
if someone sees you

It's risky and
we have to rehearse now

I can lend you my windcheater

Butterscotch in the rain

Hey, groundnut toffee

I never knew you have
such a simple wish list

If you spend more time with me

...you'll get to know more about me
that's a lot interesting

I didn't know you could pick up Telugu
so well, that too in so short a time

What's in a language, sir?

All depends on the teacher

Praise be to my guru!

You are

...heroine Sameera?

"Something my heart took a liking to
Seeking an alliance totally new"

"Emotional memories like waves
chase me in magical ways"

"Is it love, invitation, desire?
Wonder what is this fire"

"It�s all so awesome truly
In awe, what�s in store for me"

"A warm light within me aglow
bathed me from head to toe"

"Through a sunbeam tenderly
now a dream drizzles daintily"

"Did a rapturous rhapsody beckon?"

"Did floral rivers echo in return?"

"Outside and inside, a celebration"

"Ready for what I get without hesitation"

"Outside as well as inside
Moments of bliss in this ride"

"Ready for whatever I get; no hesitation"

"Did this tune so unique
whirl us into this magic?"

"Has the fragrant jasmine
united us like a benediction?"

"For me you know
this tiny hope will do"

Aiyo! Got wet, huh?

Did you get the chicken?

Fans identified her, ma

- Is it so?
- Give her a towel

If she catches a cold
the shoot will get cancelled

My windcheater wasn't effective, huh?

Here you go
Take her inside

Go...go inside

Go, you must teach her
the dialogs tomorrow

Wipe your head

- 'My dear'
- Listen!

It's raining
Rehearse inside

Consonant 'La'

La in 'peLLi' as a hard emphasis

Who says it properly?

They say 'pelli' 'malli'
pronouncing the 'la' softly

If I crib, you get upset

- No one knows
- She isn't eating at all

Eat, my dear
My wife cooks the best chicken

Even I switched over
from veggies to meat

It's so delicious, aunty

What is the use?

Your hand looks like a drumstick

But heroines earlier were
pleasantly plump and round

Like this sweet 'laddu'

Eat well, dear

Heroines Savitri, Vanishri, Jayapradha

Look at my beloved wife Anusuya

Serve her, she should know
our Telugu hospitality

Aunty, shall I help you
wash the dishes?

The maid will come
in the morning

Shall we go up to the terrace
after you finish your ice cream?

The moon is out
and looks beautiful

We will all go to the terrace
and rehearse in the moonlight

I will rehearse with you

Let them go

My scene is with her

Both of you kindly escape!

- Hey, give that to me
- Take it

Can�t you rehearse with me?

Scene has changed now!

Why do old people
need a romantic scene?

Can I ask you something?

Do you take care of everything by yourself?

Your parents don't chaperon you?

My parents don't approve
of me being an actress

Nothing

What I wanted to tell you is-

In this film industry
you have singlehandedly-

Pccht!

It's dirty and tough, right?

Isn't it?

Is only the movie world dirty?

Is the rest of the world clean?

What kind of person am I?

In your opinion

Generally most people label the heroines
with certain biased opinions, right?

For the sake of
my career and success

...do you think even I would
have compromised my values?

What kind of compromises do you mean?

I don't know
Tell me

Having fun
Affairs

You want to know what I think?

But I know this for sure

You would never have compromised
your self respect for anything

You mean that?

How do you know?

Just my instincts

As a human being you would
rather die than sell your self respect

Am I right?

Don't you have a girlfriend?

Should everyone have a girlfriend?

Everyone doesn't need one

But why aren't you dating anyone?

I am not the kind
girls will die for!

Why?

Many girls have said this to me

Then they marry a business man,
a rowdy or a politician

Don't laugh
This is the whole truth!

What kind of a girl do you think
is your Miss Right?

Tell me

Go on, I'm waiting, all ears

Simple, unpretentious girl

A girl who genuinely cares

True love!

- Means?
- Not be judgmental

A girl who is understanding

Unconditional love

Fully conditional

There can be no love without conditions

If I am in love
you should also be in love

I agree to be in love

Kidding

Look at yourself

I mean if your Telugu viewers
say so, it must be true

But all this

Exterior beauty will fade
gradually, eventually

Your skin will wrinkle

Your teeth will fall

Knock knees
Receding hairline

What I'm saying is-

Behind this beauty

Behind this face there is something more

For sure
there is an aura

Your personality, right?

That is the true 'you'

The real Sameera

I want that girl
who is truly real inside

So you want that real 'me'
within me, right?

Not within you

Generally within the girl I marry

There is an aura within me, right?

Can't you see it?

That isn't my intention

My grandfather once said

When my grandma passed away

He was by her side

He loved her heart and soul

Before she breathed her last

'The sadness I glimpsed in her eyes'

'Her anguish and pain'

'Broke my heart to pieces', he said

Love at the age of 95!

A week after grandma died

...my grandpa passed away

How does a guy who talks like this
get a girlfriend?

'I will fight the entire world for you'

You must be so effusive

I can�t do it

Now you know

No, you didn't

You didn't

What is the time?

Half past ten

Can you drop me?

Where?

Downstairs
Heroine's room

[loud snores]

'Your father looks at
the world with his eyes'

'That's why his priorities are
property and prestige'

'I see the world
with my heart'

[sleep-talk]

Is that lipstick?

Mirror?

Remove that chair

'Listen, dear'

'Your father looks

'That's why his priorities are
property and prestige'

'I see the world
with my heart'

'That's why I see people
and their bonds of love'

'I don't believe in the system'

'I respect people'

'I won't give priority to marriage'

'I respect love'

'That's why'

'I stand by you and Kishore who is
willing to even shed his blood for you'

'I will oppose my own blood
my beloved brother'

'I will go against his wishes'

'Go, my dear'

'With courage in your heart'

'Uncle'

'Brother'

'I have never derided you
even though you are my younger brother'

'Whenever you were in the wrong'

'I pardoned you'

'But if you take advantage
of this brotherly love'

'...I promise on our mother'

'I will teach you a lesson
from A to Z you'll never forget'

You lived the role!

Your soul literally migrated
into the character!

What, I say?
You have natural talent

Super, sir

I thought they went slightly
overboard with the dialogs

That's why I underplayed it

If this is underplay
imagine what 'upper play' will be!

1st time in my life
I delivered heavy dialogs

Okayed in the 1st take

Appreciate me at least now

You rocked, dad

- He was good
- Really good

Uncle, I never thought
you will ace it like this

After this film
you'll be busy 24x

I'll handle your dates

Believe it or not

No one has delivered
my dialogs so powerfully

After the 1st show...

...entire film industry
will line up at your door

You'll give Prakash Raj sir
a run for his money!

Thank God, I kept my word
and gave you a powerful scene

Today is the last day of shoot

Last day?

'Meant to be a surprise
Suresh and I planned this'

'We are hosting a party this evening'

Today is the last day?

- Why take all this trouble, aunty?
- A small gift to remember

Anytime you come to Hyderabad...

...you must visit us for sure

Aiyaiyo!
I'm very modern

Our combination will be a hit for sure

I bless you to become a big star
like Savitri + Smitha Patil + Meryl Streep

Looks like we'll never get to hug her

So long as she doesn't fall at our feet
asking to be blessed!

'Bye, keep in touch with us now and then'

Uncle, I heard you aced
your performance

You missed my 'live' performance

Share that knack with us

Do you know the whole set
is praising you?

- You rocked it seems
- Sad, we missed it

'Once the film releases
you'll know my worth'

"O' my beloved star dainty"

"Whole heartedly"

"I urge you, once again"

"I ask you all over again"

"Come back into my life, my lovely"

"Bring your sparkle to shine on me"

"I request you wholeheartedly"

"I can't think of you as a long lost dream"

"Like a fairy tale of love as the theme"

"I wish to be with you always"

"I want to be with you always"

'Kummestha'

"Something that cuddled close to my heart"

"Suddenly has drifted far apart"

"Something that was a part of me
has abandoned me totally"

"Only today it dawned on me truly"

"Some kind of void; an empty state"

"My heart feels crushed and desolate"

"Time stands still in your absence totally"

"O' my beloved star lovely"

"When you are beside me, my precious"

"My song is like the full moon luminous"

"By my side when you�re missing"

"I become a koel that cannot sing"

"To my life you lend a meaning"

"The wind that swings
my heart�s wings"

"Whenever you aren�t near me, dear"

"Every minute is 1000 deaths for me, I fear"

"Come, my soul friend always"

"Your arrival is like the sun�s rays"

"O' my star-friend love"

"My treasure trove"

That's right

Move your hands wide after that

Draw the heroine close to you

Heyyy!
Owner's son

Isn't there a scene where I hug her?

'- Didn't Madhu tell you?
- Let's shoot that'

What a pleasant surprise!

I'm here to attend a workshop

Our coach is here
to fine-tune Sameera's Telugu

I came here for a project

The hotel staff told me
about a Telugu film shoot

'Why is he here?'

How come suddenly?

He is here on some project

Heard we are here and came to see us

Das, take care of him

- Coffee or tea?
- No, thanks

You must drink something

'Did you notice the hand movements?'

When you spread
your hands wide-

Watch us rock it

Stretch your hand out
When it's broad-

Why has our chap come this far?

Trapped him also in your web?

Where are you staying?

Manu Allaya

How long?

Don't know exactly

I might even leave tomorrow

Are you free this evening?

Just 1 hour

Aunty's gift

So beautiful

My sudden visit

I hope I'm not disturbing you?

I didn't expect you

That's all

This workshop

All of a sudden, how come?

Workshop was just a cover up

I came all the way to meet you

Honestly I've come only to see you

Why...?

I think I'm in...

...love with you

For me to feel this way about someone

I'm not my normal self, Sameera

That day when we both...

...went out in the rain on my bike

The time we spent on the terrace...

For the 1st time in my life...

I experienced it

Honestly

I felt like pouring my heart out to you

You're extremely sweet

That magical night
is unforgettable

But...

...I never felt the same way you do

It has nothing to do with you

I am unable to reciprocate
the way you feel about me

Right...?

I didn't come here
to make you feel sad

I came to tell you
how I feel about you

I've said it all

I don't mean to deride you

You think I've fallen for your glamor

I'm not saying you are
that kind of a shallow person

You aren't to be blamed at all

What I feel for you...is only-

The way I feel about...you

I never imagined
I would be in this situation

Don't apologize

I should be the one to apologize

I know how you feel

How I feel right now

No way will you know

Goodbye

Hey Viju!
Did you come just now?

How did it go?

Hey, did you see
Satyajit Ray's house?

I saw everything!

My dear son

I want to rest up
Don't disturb me

- What's up with him?
- He must be tired

Okay, let's continue our game

[song from 'Bharya Bharthalu']

"Hurriedly"

Dad, ready?

I'm reminded of your office days

Where is Viju?

No idea

- Bro...?
- Go and call him

I don't know

Dad

'Lock the door and come'

Father, you said I shouldn't
be an actor, right?

Watch me in action today

Dad

Sure, my dear girls

Where is the driver?

We are late for the movie

Get in, let's go

Vijayee bhava! Praise be
to the sentinels of heaven!

I'm just starting, right?

"Change gear, son
Speed up, come on"

- Go...go
- Wait

We are late

'My film is bound to
be a soooper hit'

You're now a star
We've been waiting for you

These fans are having a rollicking time

Come...come

- Who has got the tickets?
- I have them, dad

Do you all have tickets?

Park and come in quick

I'll be there

Let's go inside
The show will begin

Come on

Film has begun

Look! 'Thanks' card
Sit down

Relax, there's still time

I must watch this film
from the beginning

Vijay, hurry up

'KICK ASS'

This is your seat

I'm in the front row
to whistle and have fun

'Stop whistling
Everyone is looking at us'

Stop it

'She's simply gorgeous!'

'It didn't hit me
when I saw her at home'

'When I see her walking here
wow....she's hot, man!

There it is!

Our house

Our house looks so grand, right?

Who built it?

'Didn't you tell me, father?'

'Only 1 word a man needs
A whip is what a bull heeds'

'Listen to me'

Stunts are realistic, right?

'What are you saying?'

'You have tarnished my reputation'

'Birth of a girl is not
considered unlucky, father'

'It's the blessing of Goddess Shakthi'

'My bad karma, I was born to a father
like you who didn't want a girl child'

Look how natural her Telugu dubbing is

Credit goes to Vijay
As thorough as gutting a fish!

Even I'll take utmost care
if I was coaching a heroine

- Will you do the same to a villain?

- Watch the film

'Didn't you fall for my beauty?'

'Whaaat?'

'Beauty, huh?'

'I don't want your bloody beauty'

'This beauty will fade eventually'

'Your hairline will recede'

'Your skin will wrinkle'

'Your teeth will fall
You'll have knock knees'

'I didn't fall for your beauty'

'It isn't even permanent'

'Behind this beauty, behind this face
there is a soul, a person'

'An aura, a character, a personality'

'I love all that'

'My grandpa loved my grandma deeply'

'He was at her bedside
when she passed away'

'He said his heart broke when he saw
the pain in her eyes before she died'

'That is true love'

'That's how I feel about you'

'I'll tell your brother'

'I mean the world to him'

Dad's entry now

Tantadaaan!

'- Let go of me
- Please don't, dad'

'I will take my Sameera with me
and no one can stop me'

My scene has been cut

- I acted in that scene

- Sit down
- My scene should have been next

My scene isn't there

Do you think
they jumbled the reel?

They must have chopped it

How can they do it?

Serves us crazy people right

No...my scene has to come next

I'm leaving
See you later

- Where to?
- You watch the film

With my punch dialogs
it was so brilliant

I don't know why it was cut

Wait, Sarva, let's see
if the scene has been shifted

No, it has to be here

What do you want, sir?

'Why are you glowering at me?'

My scene should be there

Let's wait, Sarva

'Every man who rubs the wrong side
of his razor sharp son-in-law'

'...will be butchered'

'Your knife is for hunting
Mine is for stabbing'

'I kill like an Express train
I don't stop like a Passenger train!'

'Hey sweetheart, your dad
has waved his green flag'

'Will you come with me?'

How can they cut it?

Let's discuss this
1st you get up

'Let's go, Sarva, get up'

They...they cut my scene

- Come with me
- My 1st film

- Where is Viju?
- Here he is

I'll call Das and ask him

What a terrible film!

Who will watch such a bad film?

Whatever!

Thank your stars you didn't
act in this awful film, Sarva

They might have cut the scene
to trim the length

Common man will love it

May be uncle's scene was a lag
and so it was edit-

According to the script, uncle

Doesn't matter
You'll get another chance

'This is common
Don't let it affect you'

- Where did you go?
- I came out for a cup of tea

Why watch a film
if dad's scene is cut?

Hey! 'Kummestha'!

Film is kick ass!
You saw?

- Why so much violence and hacking?
- They hacked me!

- I'll hack the director and Das
- 1 minute, wait, uncle

You acted so well

'Even I was shocked
Don't know why it was edited'

I was brilliant

I gave my house free for 20 days

Snacks were served free

I'll kill each and every one of them

What do you mean 'relax'?

You get the car

I'll go with Jippu

- What?
- I mean

My friends have opened
a costume workshop

Divya wanted to come

- I'll be back in an hour
- No need

Shut up
Come home

What's your problem?
Mom knows

Shut up!
Are you mad or what?

Want to gallivant on a bike?

- Let go
- Viju, stop it

Let me go
- Viju, stop it

Switched off!

All their phones are switched off

They should be tied to a bier!

I'll teach him a lesson

Don't talk back

This isn't the right time

Some other time
We'll meet up later

Why are you on his side?
Who is he to stop me?

When your dad is upset
you want to go on a joy ride?

Well said, ma

I'm still unable to reach
any of them

'What happened?'

'Your scene was cut!'

- Shut up
- Hey! Stop quarrelling

Haven't we had enough
of raised voices?

Why are you bullying me like a rowdy?
of raised voices?

I'm not a school girl
I know what's right or wrong

You'll ruin your life with such chaps

I have seen his friends

You know, he roams
with 100 girls like you?

- Did you see?
- I KNOW!

What is the guarantee
I don't roam with 100 guys?

Will you hit me?
Try it

It's alright if you flirt
with that heroine, huh?

Shut up!

Divya, go
I said, enough

I'm not an idiot
You can't run my life

'Stop moral policing me'

Even you?

Room service for everyone today

I'm the only one who's free
without mood swings

Sit down, ma

Had lunch?

Yes, dear

What happened in Manali?

Nothing

I saw the dirty clothes you had
stuffed into the hotel's laundry bag

I'm mad with myself, ma

I used to be sure of my judgment
of all my actions and decisions

But in the case of this girl

What did she say?

She said she didn't feel the same
about me and apologized

Well, it happens

She is a super star

I am just an illustrator

Just because she said she doesn't love you
don't demean yourself, dear

How did I make the mistake
when there was no chance at all?

Because she is genuine
and good at heart

I thought so too, would be lovely
to get her as my daughter-in-law

Just as you have the right
to declare your love for her

...don't you think even she has
the right to reject you?

Ma, I didn't go to violate her right

I just went to profess
my love, that's all

That's besides the point

What I'm trying to say is-

It isn't possible to be liked by everyone

Before I met dad
I fell in love with someone too

My college senior

Curly hair
Aquiline nose

He was like hero NTR
in 'Pathala Bhairavi'

Unable to bottle up my feelings
I professed my love one day

I was a fast chick!

But he apologized courteously

He said he was already in love with
another girl and intends marrying her

I was in hell for 6 months

After that traumatic phase,
in a drama festival in college

As cheerful as a pumpkin
Sarva walked into my life

Always laughing and
making others laugh

Happy 24x7x366!

He proposed to me
as if he was joking

He said he wanted to marry me

Agonized by my earlier rejection
I turned down his proposal

Do you know with what dignity
your dad handled it?

With utmost grace and understanding

He never broached this topic

During that bad phase
Sarva was my best friend

Later when I came to know
another girl was in love with Sarva

I rushed into his arms literally
asking him to marry me

A real man knows how to handle it
even if the girl rejects his love

It isn't such a dreadful humiliation

All this is common in life

Falling, picking yourself up, moving on

It's all a part of life

That's all

I've never yelled at Divya like this

After a couple of days,
get her an ice cream

And praise her Bharatanatyam

Then she'll stick to you like glue

If you want, go and stay
with Murthy for a few days

His weird attitude will make you
zip zap zoom like a newly serviced car

How is dad feeling?

Don't do the empathy
and encouragement routine

I'll be staying with Murthy
for a few days

See you

At least you have good friends

My 'friends' are
laughing behind my back

Dad

You at least tried to do
what your heart desired

Those who laugh
can't even chase their dreams

What you said is true, son

Cinema is a make-believe world

A world of hypocrisy and false praise

Opportunists who take us for a ride

Dad

Just because there are sharks in the ocean

Look, will those beautiful fishes
leave their home?

Consider this as rehearsal, huh?

Try even harder next time

Don't look at me like that

You're a brilliant actor

Brushing my ego aside
I'm admitting it

Nothing happens without a reason, dad

We have to wait for the right time

Go back to your movie watching spree

Forget this as a bad dream

Mom told me about
your love story just now

Do you know that?

Everyone is looking at us
What are you do-

We welcome the hero
who hugged Sameera!

Get lost!

Whatever, it was wrong of Sameera
to steal your dialogs

Look...take this

Drown your sorrows in this elixir

Only cowards and incapable idiots
resort to this, Murthy

I might take a sip
just for fun sometimes

Not now

Don't drink, making an excuse
of keeping me company

As it is you are brainless
At least let your liver be intact!

Do you know, in Urdu
lady love is called 'Jaane jigar'?

'Jigar' means liver

'Kaleyam' in Telugu

'Jaane jigar' means

'Darling, you are as precious as my liver'

That Urdu philosopher knew
if the liver fails, love doesn't die

I'm moving to the hall

I'll stop with these 2 glasses

Don't kill me with your advice

'Welcome to
Thakadhimi Thom'

'My name is Girish'

'We have the lead pair of
'Kummestha' with us in our studio'

'Kishore and rising star Sameera'

Hey! Vijay

Come to the hall

1 minute, just come

'It will be a kickass session'

'Are you ready?'

'You can also call them
and talk to them'

'This is your 3rd consecutive hit'
and talk to them'

'Sameera ma'am, how are you
enjoying this success?'

'All of us worked really hard
to give our very best'

'I feel so satisfied my hard work
has reaped rich rewards'

'Bravo! Wow!
Did you hear her Telugu?'

'Struggled
Satisfied'

'These words are
tongue twisters even for me!'

'Did your Telugu improve
because of this film?'

'Or was it a gradual process?'

'I have been trying for a while'

'But I took special care
for this particular film'

'I had a coach specifically
to teach me the right accent'

'I rehearsed daily'

'That's all'

'Coming back to the film'

'The scene audience went gung ho about'

'When the hero and heroine
profess their love'

'From the time this film released'

'This is the talk of the town'

'I would have got
a minimum of 1000 phone calls'

'That scene wasn't
by the dialog writer'

'When our team was discussing it'

'Sameera came up with an idea'

'She wrote all the main dialogs'

'Wow! Sameera?
Are you a writer?'

'Has Sameera worked in this film
even as the writer?'

'Not like that'

'Somehow that day
it just came to me'

'I don't know
I just blurted it out'

'She's just underplaying it'

'All of us fell for it at once'

'Time now for our callers
to ask their questions'

'If you call the numbers scrolling below'

'�you can talk to
Kishore sir and Sameera ma'am'

'You can congratulate them'

'Even express your love!'

Give me your phone

I said, give me your phone

Are you calling this show?

'Who is speaking?'

I am Kumar
From Kukatpally

'Mr Kumar, please reduce
the volume in your TV'

Okay, I'll do it, sir

Reduce it

'Tell me'

I want to talk to Sameera madam

'Hi Mr Kumar'

Hi Sameera madam
How are you?

'I am fine
You...?'

I'm first class

I am your biggest fan
I've watched all your films

Including your latest film
Wow! What a film!

'How many times
did you watch it, bro?'

Only once

'What did you like in this film?'

What I liked?

Sameera's acting,
dancing, dressing sense

Sameera madam, I heard you now
You're so fluent in Telugu

Who coached you
to speak fluent Telugu?

Tell me, please
I'll hug your coach

Madam, tell us

'Actually I don't know where he is now'

'He's very busy'

'Kumar sir, ask your question please'

Sorry, I'll ask now

You were talking about
that 'I love you' scene

That was simply too good

But I have a niggling doubt

I don't know why, madam

Those dialogs don't look like your writer,
hero or you sat and improvised together

It sounds more as if someone
professed his love honestly

You copied it from someone
Isn't it true?

'Mr Kumar, in a spur of the mome-'

Wait, Mr Kishore

Let Sameera madam speak up

'We are her fans'

Tell me, madam

Did you really write those lines?

'I really felt those dialogs'

It isn't about the feel, madam

Who spoke those lines to you?

'I'm referring to only those lines'

'Hasn't she replied, bro?'

Hey Kishore!
Shut up, man

Your face is blank
when you deliver dialogs

If you show any expression
dialogs stutter and falter

'1st learn to act'

'Who the hell are you?'

'Please sit down, sir'

'We shall take a short break now'

You're insulting us
with these cheapos

'Sometimes this is unavoidable'

'But you must be alert
when a mass hero is your guest?'

'Won't my fans get hurt
and create a ruckus?'

Why do you take
all this trouble, aunty?

It's difficult for him
to stomach your cooking daily!

He'll starve to death

I am just joking

I made egg curry

Came out well
So I brought it for you

I'll get the door

What brings you here, dear?

I came to see Vijay

I went to your place
Uncle said he's here

Uncle said he's here

I came to-

I saw your performance on TV

After I met you, I thought
I was biased about film people

You slapped me in my face
and proved me wrong

What is the difference
between you and that director?

He promised to give
my dad a chance to act

Utilised our house for 20 days
and chopped his scene ruthlessly

I guess exploiting people
is common in your profession

I have no problem
that you didn't love me

But something I've never told
anyone at any point of time

My feelings I trusted you
and shared with you willingly

You changed them into dialogs
and gave yourself a pat on your back

I hate myself
for even talking to you now

"Eyelashes damp and forlorn
Away from you, all alone"

"I am left all alone
A story fading into oblivion"

"Without you how can I survive?"

"How do I erase your memories that revive?"

"Eyelashes damp and forlorn
Away from you, all alone"

"I stood all alone
A story fading into oblivion"

- I'm hosting a party for you this evening
- I'm not attending

If you don't come
it's okay, I'll call Jippu!

"Where are those moments special?
Where is the past that was so real?"

"My mind keeps searching in vain"

"My life at a standstill now
With all routes blocked somehow"

"Life crawls once again
Loaded with anguish and pain"

"My choked heart is mute now"

"Makes my anguish unbearable somehow"

"How do I reveal
the truth I feel?"

Anaganaga is proud to publish
your book, launch is this month

"How do I forget truly
memories of you totally?"

"Eyelashes damp and forlorn
Away from you, all alone"

Listen, my 1st book
has been published

Awesome news, dude

'This is the house of Sameera,
the rising star heroine'

'About 2 hours ago'

'�Sameera was lying
unconscious in her portico'

'Her friend Ramya found her
and she has was rushed to the hospital'

and she has was rushed to the hospital'

'Primary evidence suggests
attempted suicide'

attempted suicide'

'In which state of mind, did Sameera take
this decision is yet to be investigated'

'Did you watch the news?'

'Doctors said she has to be
under observation for another 24 hours'

'Sameera Rathod fell from her balcony
at her residence in Gachibowli'

'...thereby suffering severe head injury'

If you keep crying
what will people-

Over there

She's upstairs

ICU room #-

Before I could go to her house-

Wait, Ramya

I'm going to the police station

You go inside

Ramya, will you be here?

I'll be here
You go

- Take care
- Come with me

- How is she?
- Status quo

We must talk to the doctor

Doctor, how is she?

Critical
But stable

We'll know only tomorrow

Luckily she is responding to the treatment

We'll wait and see

Look at him
Scumbag!

Sheer torture

Become worse
these past 2 months

What is his name?

Amit Malhotra

Boyfriend?

They studied in the same acting school

'Sameera was the best student in her batch'

'Amit was her senior'

'Their friendship started casually'

'If one's acting is
praised sky high'

'�at that impressionable age,
anyone will flip for it'

'That's how she fell for him'

They became close friends

'Since she lacked support
from her parents'

'...she derived comfort from
Amit's encouragement'

'She gradually became fond of him
and trusted him'

'She believed his admiration
to be sincere'

'He treated her like a princess'

'So slowly she started feeling
grateful towards him'

'That's natural, right?'

Even before the course ended
Sameera got a break in a Telugu film

'I was the one who showed
her album to a director'

'Amit pretended to be happy
in the beginning'

'Her debut was under a prestigious banner
and a renowned director'

'Sameera became a sensation
in her very first film'

Her 2nd film was also
with a renowned director

'The film was a soooper hit'

'After the success of both her films'

'Amit started coming
to the shooting spot'

'She couldn't stop him'

'He usurped all the credit
for her success'

'And enjoyed all the benefits
that came with it'

'But he was frustrated
he didn't taste success'

'On the other hand,
Sameera's growing popularity'

'It turned him into a parasite'

His demands increased

'His true colors showed up'

'Managers told me not to let him
come to the shooting spot'

'They said he was a headache
they wished to avoid'

'I conveyed this to Sameera'

'Sameera is by nature
a sensitive girl'

'She was breaking her head,
wondering how to break it to Amit'

'Finally she gained courage and told him'

'Amit made it look like
Sameera betrayed him'

'And left in a huff'

That was when
his torture intensified

'He accused her of being selfish
and not supporting him as a friend'

'He claimed success had gone to her head'

'Poor girl!'

She tried her best
to understand his frustration

'She somehow wanted to
change him into a better person'

But...

...her goodness of heart
he took for granted

'That scumbag!'

'Sameera realized Amit
was becoming psychotic'

'She tried so hard to keep him
at a distance'

But he didn't relent

He called and started
pestering her 24x

'After shoot started in your house
his torture became even worse'

'You can't even talk to me now?'

'Sameera can't snap ties that easily'

'That was his strength'

But the joy I saw on her face
when shoot started at your place�

�I've never seen her
like that in my life

'Everyday she was genuinely happy
and so full of zest'

'She'll count the hours
for the shoot to start'

Do you know why?

To meet you

'Whenever she spent time with you'

'�she realized you were the one
truly close to her heart'

'Her love deepened gradually'

'Talking freely to you'

'Sharing her likes and dislikes'

'She loved the time
she spent with you'

'The moment she saw you
her face would radiate joy'

On the last day of shoot
in your house

'Poor Sameera!'

'Do you know how upset she was?'

Amit's torture on one side

'Kishore crossing his limits
on the other side'

The cast and crew I worked with
in the 1st 2 films were so decent and good

Kishore is so bad
Just the opposite

'Do you know how
many scumbags think...'

...an actress is ready
to sell her body?

'Don't come if you find it so tough'

'If you come, you should
be prepared to do all this'

Then they lavish praise
on the 'Goddess of Arts'

I'm not saying all women are angels

A few of us may set bad examples

'Doesn't the same
apply for you men?'

When you came to Manali

�the same evening
Amit landed there

He came directly to her hotel

Sameera had gone to meet up with you

Kishore staying in the same hotel
told Amit that Sameera had gone�

'�to meet her boyfriend from Hyderabad
and added fuel to the fire'

Like a drunken monkey
in wild fury he called Sameera

'Scared he might land up there
she left immediately'

From then onwards
her thoughts are only on you

'Sameera didn't give in when Amit
tried to extract information about you'

I will not spare him

'For the 1st time he saw
anger in Sameera's eyes'

'He started threatening her'

'She became very tense'

She was careful not to let him see
even a photo of yours

She was so worried
he might harm you

Meanwhile her film got released

You heard those lines

'And threw her out of your house'

That writer came up
with such lousy dialogs

She showed him the language
of real people in love

And blurted out your words impulsively
of real people in love

'The writer stole your dialogs'

Sameera was extremely dejected
after you threw her out

'Amit on the other side'

She tried one last time
to patch up with Amit

That rascal then gave her
another piece of shocking news

'A Bollywood producer was willing to give
Sameera and him a break in Hindi films'

'He wanted her to
spend a night with the producer'

"Sameera lost her cool completely'

If she didn't comply
to his demand...

�he threatened to upload their photos,
videos on Facebook and Twitter

He was ready to disgrace her
and ruin her career

'He set the 15th of
this month as deadline'

I said, 'Enough is enough
Let's go to the police'

'Sameera refused'

'She said she would
deal with Amit later'

'If we registered a case'

'...and the cops interrogated Amit'

�he'll drag Vijay into this mess

Then the media will
tarnish Vijay's reputation

'She was adamant your family
should not be dragged into this'

She told even the police
it was an accident

Where is Amit now?

I got that son of a gun's address

'I heard he stays here in Hyderabad
He is neck-deep in debts in Mumbai'

What are your plans, dude?

- Planning to kill him or what?
- Keep quiet!

You need to take off 1 more day

You have to attend
2 major events

'Your book launch?'

'Book launch and
Amit's deadline coincide'

Can you get 2 more strong chaps
other than the 3 of us?

Venkat and Ravi will be ready
for this kind of work

What kind of work?

Who the hell is it
early in the morning?

Shut up!

Shut up, I say

If you don't shut up
I'll kill you, rascal!

Calling out to the security, eh?

Tie him up securely

Tighten the knot

Hold the gun

- Why do I need a gun?
- Hold it

Why me...don't giv-

Ready, boss

I've been waiting for ages to play
a pivotal role in a scene like this!

- Chair!
- Get him a chair

Who are all of you?

Your name

Am-it

Amitabh Malhotra

We don't have much time

'Stick to your dialog paper'

Shut up!

When I'm going full swing
why bug me with your silly dialogs?

I delivered my dialogs

Like bullets from a gun

Everyone applauded
and said I was awesome

But what did they do?

The most important part

Cut!
They cut it

'Cut it' means?

Looks like he won't stop
till he gets an Oscar

"What are you seeing?"

"Your face, my darling"

Sing

"What do you want, ask me"

Your finger, buddy

I didn't know your dad
is such a psycho, dude

Even I didn't!

Boss...boss

Our schedule is very tight

We have murder assignments
in Afzal Gunj, Dhoolpet, so hurry up

In Marredpally too

Do you know Sameera?

Unless I show him in 3D
he won't understand

Oh God!

What is this strip-tease?

When did your dad
get all these tattooed?

I have no idea

Look at me

Your dad is showing us
'Ghajini' the film

What do you know, pipsqueak?

Original version is 'Memento'

Christopher Nolan

They copied it

From English films
French films

Korean cinema

They copied
Scene to scene

Frame to frame

Aren't you ashamed?

How dare you blackmail my Sameera?

Move

This is my portion!

How dare you torture my Sameera?

Our boy is now gutsy

Love made an illustrator of
children's books react like hero Prabhas

Let him go, sir

You are butting into my frame

This is a rare chance for me

Stop fighting,
focus on the villain

I'm your boss, I say

Have you heard of
Mumbai underworld?

You've heard of Mumbai underworld?

They are my friends

He has solid network!

Just 1 call from me!!

My dear boy, you have friends
in Mumbai underworld?

'Sathya' the movie

'Company'

'Nayagan'

Do you know who bro is?

We pl...anned this

As a surprise

Don't stop

Stop what?
My pant-

I'm unable to hold on
Why the hell didn't you tell me?

Maybe they use guns in Mumbai

In the south
the system is different

Haven't you watched Hindi-dubbed
Telugu films in Sony Max?

'Narasimha Naidu'

'Samarasimha Reddy'

'Simhadri'

'Aadhi'

Did the knife penetrate deep
or not is the issue

Praise be to Sameera!

This is good

The reaction shot when we discover
Rajinikanth is 'Baashaa'

If he said 'Mumbai underworld'
as if I'll pee in my pants!

I wet my pants a little already

I have 4 points to ask you

First point

You got any videos or photos
of Sameera and you?

Su...suitcase

'Not just the photos
Take his laptop too'

Give me your phone

I don't have it on me

You scoundrel!

No, don't

If you have any backup
and you upload it...

...I'll come to Mumbai and pickle
you to pieces, got it?

Move aside
I'll miss my flow of thoughts

Now the next one

2nd point

Chotu, shoot him

Are you a family of hired killers?

Does aunty prepare bombs
along with her 'laddus'?

Keep quiet
Your pant is already wet

I know-

Chotu, shoot him

I am to blame
Please forgive me, sir

Got scared, my boy?

I didn't mean that shooting

Cinema shooting

Confession time

Tell me, how did you
torture Sameera-

Not Hindi
Ask him in Telugu

How did you deceive Sameera?

How did you torture her?
What demands did you make?

Speak up, scumbag

- I'm Shyam, Anaganaga
- Once upon a time?

Shyam from 'Anaganaga' publishers

Oh! Sir, it's you?
Tell me

Where is Vijay?
He isn't picking up my call

The book launch is at 6:00 p.m

The media has been pestering me

He has gone shopping
for today's function

Ask him to call me
as soon as he gets back

- Ask him to call me
- Any information?

I couldn't reach him either

Come by 6'o clock

I must try my hand at it sometime

My 3rd point
Call Sameera

What?

I'm going

I'm going back to Mumbai

Not Hindi
Telugu

I'm going now
I'll never come back

Why are you speaking in Telugu?

I am sorry
Forgive me

I'll never show
my feelings for you-

Hey! 'Show my face to you'
Not 'my feelings'

I won't show my face to you

Never again

My 4th point

Last but not the least!

There's a flight within 2 hours to Mumbai

You'll board that plane
Shall we go now?

You and your friends could have
bashed up Amit on your own

Dad, if my friends and I hit him

...he'll become more violent
and harass Sameera even more

The machismo of such scumbags
last only till they trap decent girls

They are real cowards by nature

No point just hitting them
Must scare the hell out of them

Why waste an actor
sitting right under my nose?

That's why

Dad, what is this?

You are the one
who really gave me a break!

Not really

- Where were you?
- No apology is good enough, sir

- Where?
- It was an emergency

Where? When? What?

Our family is here

What is this avatar?

I brought a change of clothes, just in case

Come in

Button up your shirt please

Everyone is waiting

Hurry up

You made our chief guest
wait for 45 minutes

Sir, it was an emerg-

We got to know just now

Please take your seat

I can sit here, right?

'Warm welcome to everyone here
Our apologies for the delay'

'Our Telugu audience
has been enchanted by...'

...our chief guest Sameera Rathod

'I cordially invite you on to the dais'

All of you must be aware

Sameera recently met
with a terrible accident

I was not sure
if she would attend

But she readily agreed
and kept her word

Thank you so much
for your presence here, Sameera

I invite our artist, R.Vijay Kumar
on to the stage now

'Without further delay
we shall release the book'

Wow!

- Dad!
- Sit down

'When A Star Stepped Down To Earth'
Let us hear the story

'Bujji was a good boy'

'His parents doted on him'

'But he was such a shy boy'

'So he had very few friends'

'He spent long hours by himself'

'Reading
Drawing'

'Playing all by himself'

'During summer nights
he used to lie on the terrace'

'And loved counting the stars in the sky'

'He considered them to be his friends'

'One night a star descended
and started to chat with him'

'Bujji was surprised'

'That star bowed down
to the ground and asked him'

'Will you come with me?
I'll show you the entire sky?'

'Bujji's cup of joy overflowed'

'The star took his hand
and led him high up to the sky'

'Bujji was in a daze'

'He ran a race
in the Milky way'

'He played 'sky or ground'
with all the planets'

'He played hide and seek with the moon'

'So many such magical nights'

'One night the star suddenly vanished'

'Bujji searched high and low
but all in vain'

'He yelled his throat hoarse
but the star didn't reply'

'He started crying'

'Hearing his loud sobs
his parents ran to console him'

'When Bujji told them about the star'

'...his mother smiled gently'

'Must be a bad dream
for my little madcap'

'She pacified him and
tucked him into his bed'

'Though Bujji pretended to sleep
he didn't stop looking for his star-buddy'

'Many days passed by'

'One night that star reappeared'

'And greeted Bujji'

Bujji asked angrily
'Where have you been?'

'Do you know how many lonely boys
like you are out there?' replied the star

'Don't I have to greet
all of them?' asked the star

'Really?' asked Bujji

'Cross my heart' said the star

'After many days
a smile flashed on his face'

'The star never left Bujji's side'

This is the story of
'When A Star Stepped Down To Earth'

Greetings to everyone gathered here

This is really a lovely book

Mr Shyam and Mr Vijay

Very good indeed

We'll give you more than

Looking at this cover
reminds me of my story

When I was a little girl
I used to befriend many stars too

Unexpectedly

I became a star

Many people think stars are
not like common people

But people in my shoes wish
we could lead a normal life too

It's tough to keep
acting all the time, right?

Like Bujji even I fell in love with a star

But I was unable to
express my love to that star

But there were more reasons than one

The soulful words
that star shared with me

I stole those lines
and used them in my film

That star...was heartbroken

It vanished from my life

But like someone said
even if I am now a star

I am a normal girl
who wishes for love and care

Like the star in Bujji's story

...hoping the star will shine
back into my life someday

That hope still glows within me

I wish this series succeeds
in a very big way

I would like to leave

For accepting our invitation and gracing
this occasion, thank you very much, Sameera

Give that letter to Sameera
Tell her I'll call later

Sameera ma'am, wait

Where is she?

She just left

Oh gawd!
You be here

- Call Vijay
- Okay

'We shall distribute the books
to those present here from the media'

Please share a few words

With your permission
I would like to do something

I'll tell you

'Hey! BMW
Stop...stop'

'Pull the car to the kerb'

Vijay, uncle, Amit

If I should tell you
it's a long story

Pick up the phone, Sameera ji

He is calling you

I was worried
you wouldn't pick my call

It was on silent mode
I didn't notice

I would have kept calling
till you noticed it

Whoever that star was in your story
he must be a real fool, you know

To have lost a girl
as wonderful as you

'That too, just for a few dialogs'

Poor souls! I am making
no sense whatsoever to the media

I am the star in Sameera's story

I didn't vanish anywhere, Sameera

I am right here

You are the one who walked away

Leaving me

I even know why you did so

That's why in front of everyone here

With the world as witness
I would like to apologize

I hurt you

I love you like crazy

All the crazy stuff I never thought
I would ever do in my life...

...I have done that
in 1 single day

I was scared I might lose you

I have a small request for you

Just once more

Won't you come to my terrace?

I can tell you many more dialogs
for you to copy once again

I have gone far away

Doesn't matter

I'll come even if you are
in another galaxy

No galaxy there

I'm near Wipro

Harakiri! Going to another galaxy
is easier than coming there

But I'll do my best

"Through a sunbeam tenderly
now a dream drizzles daintily"

"Did a rapturous rhapsody beckon?"

"Did floral rivers echo in return?"

Let me test it

Sir, stop!

"Outside and inside, a celebration"

"Ready for what I get without hesitation"

"Outside and inside, a celebration"

"Ready for what I get without hesitation"

"Did this tune so unique
whirl us into this magic?"

"Has the fragrant jasmine
united us like a benediction?"

She looks like Sameera Rathod

- Yes
- Shooting, huh?

Looks like a romantic scene

Something like that
Come close to me!

Only you should play that role

- What, Mr Prasad?
- I'm directing a film

- He'll be the heroine's father
- No chance

- Enough of being conned once
- When?

You stole my son's dialogs

- He had lost his mind then
- You must do that role

I'll go on a hunger strike
in front of your house

'Say 'yes', uncle'

- Then 1 condition
- Tell me

Sign a contract you won't cut
even 1 frame of my character

- It's on record
- Yes

Let's discuss my role

Divya made the chicken

Is Sri Venkateswara Creations
a big banner?

'You bet!
Mr Dilraj owns it'

Someone called me
from that banner

Asked if I would be the caterer
for their next film?

'Wow! Really?'

My son keeps saying this

To take my brand to the next level

'You'll ace it'

Tastes good?

No need Bharatnatyam or Botany

Don't disturb the lovebirds

Coming to my matter

Instead of starting Jobless.com

...it is better to stick to my job

Far away from the internet
But close to my friends

My plan is to settle down happily

"I'll conquer the world; everything"

"With my desires blossoming into spring"

"In that moment so right
when my dreams and our bond unite"

"Me and you, you and me
that�s the way we�ll always be"
