'Meet our hero - Karthi.'

'Even he wouldn't have imagined he'd be battling'

'a few guys deep in the woods.'

'What happened in his life?'

'Let's watch.'

'Karthi's native is our very own "Singara" Chennai.'

'This is where he was born, raised, grew up and is still living.'

'He's Mr. Kumarasamy.'

'Karthi's dad.'

'A retired college professor.'

'He does nothing different from what retired professors do.'

'You're right. He takes tuitions.'

'She's Saraswathi, Karthi's mom.'

'She raised her daughter, Anandhi, with ease.'

'But Karthi was difficult to raise.'

'Now that both are grown up, she's growing plants.'

'Her happiness lies in raising something.'

'To give a clear picture about Karthi,'

'let's start from his fifth grade.'

Newton sat under an apple tree.

An apple fell on his head.

Immediately,

Newton started questioning, "Why did this apple fall down?"

"What made the apple fall?"

and "How did it fall?"

You should ask what, why,

why, and how questions. - Sir.

Yes.

There's a rule that our school teachers can't take tuitions.

But you do. Why do you take tuition?

For what do you take?

How are you allowed to?

Sit down. Don't question me like a lawyer.

'Karthi's dad encouraged him to take up law'

'because of his inquisitiveness.'

But what happened during his final exams pushed his dad over the edge.

Hey.

At least copy from this book and try to pass.

What will I tell your dad if you don't?

You don't have to tell anything. Keep your phone switched off.

I can't write for two hours. My hand hurts.

I’ve already taken money from your dad, the law minister.

Saying I'll help you clear the exams.

Give that money to me and I'll handle things.

Not happening. Move. I'll write the exam for you.

I'll do it.

Sir, say hi please.

Hi!

Why are you taking video?

How could you stoop to this being a law professor?

Don't interfere in all this.

Just back off and clear your exam. Give that to me.

Please. - Sure.

But not to you.

I’ll share this with the media and get you both punished.

Your case will be my first once I become a lawyer.

You think you could get a degree going against the law minister?

A degree isn’t required to question what’s wrong.

All it takes is courage.

And I possess a great deal of it.

He's still wandering around as a degreeless lawyer

because he was too bold to file a case against his college.

"The fault's on your side You can't blame me!"

"I'm calling out your mess But you're ghosting me!"

"That's right! Shout out loud!"

"Keep going, bro!"

"The fault's on your side You can't blame me!"

"I'm calling out your mess But you're ghosting me!"

"You love to preach your rules Within the walls"

"Outside, your words crumble You start a brawl!"

"I ain't a soggy fry, man!"

"Treating me like nothing That's not cool, man!"

"Don't you dare Laugh at my rhyme scheme"

"Do I look like a joke?"

"Hey, good looking! You think you're slick?"

"Thought you could nab my stuff? Nice try!"

"Nice try!"

"Nice try!"

"King of this game!"

"Building muscle with daddy's bucks, Singing with your girl's a must"

"Swattin' mosquitoes all night long In this loop, I'm feeling sick!"

"Gosh! I can't!"

Bro, it's a long way to go!

"Thought I'll give up?"

"King of this game!"

"Like Michael Hussey I've got the smooth sweep!"

"Got no time for your boomer chatter Gotta keep moving!"

"I'm at the level where Balmain's my everyday flair!"

"Man, I'm at the top!"

"Yes, I am!"

Hey, Karthi!

Bro…

I'm doing good, man. Dad…

Mom? Look who's here. - Yes.

Come, come.

How are you doing, Uncle? - I'm good, thank you!

All good, Aunty? - Yes, yes.

Bless me, Uncle.

God bless you!

You too, Aunty. Bless me. - God bless you!

I've become a judge.

Superb, bro!

On which channel and which show?

Hey! I've become a judge.

I heard that. Tell me which show, and we'll watch it.

I cleared the judicial exam and became a judge.

I'm the youngest judge in our zone.

Wow! Super, man. Congrats! So proud of you!

A gift for you…

Hey! What are you doing?

Write your first judgment with this pen.

Thank you, bro!

Uncle, I have a few more houses to visit. I'll come back later.

Bye, Aunty!

Take care, bro.

Hey… Sweets?

You're still just as stingy, even now as a judge.

It's a costly sweet. - That's alright.

Bye!

Cute boy!

Your classmate has become a judge.

Yet, you’re not at all worried about not having a degree.

Not even a bit?

What are you?!

'Aren't you coming to play, Karthi?' - Coming.

'When?' - Tie the nets. I'll be there.

'Come fast.'

Dad, can we have this conversation in the evening?

So we don’t run out of things to argue about when I return.

Mom, keep this in the fridge. I'll eat after the game.

Look, Saraswathi.

He's definitely going to drag us to the streets one day.

Why would we stand there?

We own a house.

Your son will make it happen.

I'm damn sure about it.

Always supporting your son.

He's playing there.

Come, let's go. - How dare he do that?

We can't leave this. - I'll call the boys.

I'm sure he's there. - We should settle this today.

There he is, sir.

Karthik, come here. - Karthi…

Give me a minute.

What happened, Uncle?

The corporation sent a notice saying

they're going to demolish this building.

You filed a complaint in person, right?

They didn't answer my calls or reply to my mail.

That's why I went in person to file the complaint.

How could you do this against the association?

Madam. The association has got-- - Karthi…

You think you can do anything if you studied in a law school?

You aren't even a lawyer.

Listen to me... - We're being quiet only

for your parents.

If not, things would have been different.

Alright. You discuss and come to a conclusion.

I'll finish the match by then.

Karthi… - Then what?

The corporation has a rule that any building over 30 years old

needs to be demolished and redeveloped.

Don't you know that? Aren't you all educated?

So you want Chennai Central Station, Egmore railway station,

Connemara Library to be demolished as well, huh?

Fair point! Wow!

Do you sleep there with your family?

Will the ceiling fall on you while you are asleep?

But it did here.

Yes, there was just one left in that store.

Just one? - Yes, and I took it.

Oh my! What just happened? - Mom…

Do you not understand what could've happened if a stone or iron bar

had hit my mom instead of this limestone?

Listen, more than 500 families live here.

Just because this happened to some random person,

will you ask them to demolish an entire flat?

I spent 25 lakhs on doing the interiors in my house.

I won't let them take out even a tiny stone.

My daughter's marriage has been fixed.

I won't move out of this house till my grandchildren arrive.

Karthi, will you withdraw the complaint or not?

Tell us. - Okay.

I'll withdraw the complaint.

The building needn't be demolished.

But will you sign a paper agreeing to pay me

50 lakhs each if the building collapses?

Hey! - You're going over the top.

I'll forget who you are and break your face.

Even I'll forget you're a politician

…and break your bones.

How dare you talk like this to him?! You…

Hey! What are you doing?

Everyone run. - What are you doing?

Run, run. - He stabbed him.

Hello, control room? Control room. - Come.

Saw that? It started crumbling when you bumped into it.

This is what I meant. - Karthi?

Hey!

Get up. Let's go.

Brother…

Aren't you coming? - Karthi…

Him? - Come here. You only.

He deserves this. - Good for him.

I'll come back and take care of you.

Go. Leave now.

Go on. Do your duty. - Close the door.

Karthi? - Wait, wait.

What's all this? - I'm not at fault, Mom.

And I've got the order to demolish this building!

So you continue watching your soap opera, eat, and sleep in peace.

Have some podi dosa ready if you can by then.

Bye, bye! Let's go.

Get going now. - Right!

Sir, look at what your son did!

He filed a complaint with the corporation

to demolish this building.

You better ask him to withdraw his complaint.

If not, you vacate this flat.

If you're adamant to stay here,

you can't live in peace until he withdraws the complaint.

You'll be tortured.

The association can do anything.

I hope you know that.

Better behave yourselves.

Let's go. - Yes.

People like them shouldn't even live here.

'Kumarasamy calmly handled every issue Karthi created as a child.'

'The moment he caused a row over the house'

'he wanted to live in peace after retiring...'

'That was when he had his first heart attack.'

'Karthi's sister, Anandhi, flew from Ooty to Chennai to visit him.'

'With an M.Sc. and M.Phil. under her belt,'

'she’s now a convent teacher after her wedding.'

Dad?

How are you now? - Come, Anandhi.

I'm doing alright.

How's everyone at home?

All are well.

How did this happen, Mom?

His tension caused his BP to spike to 180,

resulting in him fainting. - Oh, Dad…

They've prescribed medicines to lower it.

Now he's doing better.

You sit down, sweetie.

When can we get him discharged? - We could, even today.

But he must avoid getting tensed.

He needs to remain calm.

What the heck?

Why's the lift out of order? - One of the phases is out, sir.

Buy a generator, then.

Why waste money on diesel, sir. It should be back in a while.

What if something happens by then? Will your owner own up to it?

Nah, this isn't working.

Anandhi…

I think Karthi's here.

You call a doctor.

Karthi… - Hey, when did you get here?

Dad was… I'll get the doctor.

Be with him and I'll get them.

Can I get you some water?

I only went to the station for a while and you checked yourself in,

causing Anandhi to panic and rush here!

I know the Inspector personally.

Why did you get so worked up when I could've handled it?

Look at his tone!

How many ever doctors you bring to tend to me,

I'll only be well on a surface level.

The day he gets out of the house is when I'll completely recover!

I'm your son, Dad!

Why must I get out?

Dad, both of you stay here in peace.

I'll take him with me to Ooty.

Sound good? - What the…

I'm not coming to Ooty.

Dad's sick and I must tend to him.

Hold up, hold up.

Please get out of here, first thing.

He'll get better automatically.

So please, go.

Oh.

So that's how it's going to be?

Only I'll decide what to do next.

None of you'll in this house has the right--

But I do. And you will listen.

You're coming with me. That's final.

But… - No buts.

But, dear…

Why the trouble? - No problem, Dad.

Next time we meet, you'll see how much Karthi has changed.

I swear.

Trust me.

I promise you.

'Karthik dotes on his sister.'

'He listens to her ever since a child.'

'Which is why he never revolted and went quietly with her to Ooty.'

'That's her husband, Aravind IFS.'

'A ranger in the forest department of Ooty.'

'He's one of those officers'

'who minds his own business and ignores others.'

'This is Sivagurunathan IAS, Collector of Nilgiri District.'

'Anandhi's father-in-law.'

'A stickler of rules rather than serving the people.'

'Another reason why his life's in danger.'

I'm Hemamalini Sivagurunathan.

'This is Anandhi's mother-in-law.'

'A high profiled advocate who fights for animal rights.'

'As Kamal Hassan famously says, "Expect the unexpected,"'

'Karthi will face surprises in his life he never expected.'

Karthi, are you-- - Meet Archana, Aravind's sister.

She… She's my sister-in-law.

Yuck, your sister-in-law. And my sister.

I uh… hope you remember who I am.

Right from the day you got whacked in sixth grade

to the promise Anandhi made to your father,

I know everything about you.

When did this happen? - We talk about you

whenever we're bored!

You're quite the entertainer, you know.

Oh, another thing.

You're wanted inside and everyone's waiting for you.

Let that be there. He'll bring it in.

Careful with the boxes, okay?

Hello, what is it?

You said you know everything about me.

Why don't you use

it to find me a partner? - Oh.

I have two conditions for her, though.

First, I want her to be cuter than you.

Second, I would love it if she's less talkative as you.

Is that so? - Yeah.

Can you give me your phone? - For what joy?

To show them your pretty face, that's why.

Oh, my! Love your swiftness to help me!

Why are you posing like a bodybuilder? Loosen up a bit.

Now smile.

Ugh, why are you grinning like a toothpaste model?

Close that mouth a bit.

Little more. A bit more.

I suppose this is all I can get.

Anyway…

Whenever you want to have a good laugh,

look at this picture then.

Because the moment you step in, forget what laughter even means.

Welcome home!

Come in, Karthi! - Coming.

Excuse me? Take your hand off.

I am Caretaker Keshav.

Caretaker Keshav? - Yeah.

Is that really your name, or did you choose it because it rhymes?

No, no. This is Lord Krishna's name.

He was named that because of his long hair.

I too had long hair back in school.

What's wrong?

No, I um… pictured you with hair like Thala Dhoni.

May I know why you chopped it off?

That's a long story.

I'll tell you when I feel like it.

I hope you've packed warm clothes. - Yes, yes, I have.

Because after 4 p.m., it'll start to chill to the bone.

What is all this? - Archana planned this, Dad.

Even when I walked proudly after my second attempt at 12th boards,

my parents never welcomed me this way!

I'm serious, this was amazing! Thank you!

Nice meeting you, Mr. Karthik.

Greetings, Uncle.

Greetings, Ma'am! - Hi.

Don't call me Ma'am but Aunty.

Haha, Aunty? Wow, will do!

Hi, Karthik!

Long time since we've met.

Now that you're here,

stay over for a couple of days, take in the scenery from here,

and run back to your place. - Oh, come on.

I’ll be here for a few months to have an amazing time with everyone!

And you're chasing me that early?

Amazing time, huh?

Oh, gosh.

Where are the kids? Can't see them around.

They're studying. - Even when I've arrived?

Arjun? Abi?

We're already running late for dinner by 10 minutes!

It's almost 6:10 p.m.!

My cycle will get messed up!

Come, come. Time's running out!

Come along, Archana. - Be right there.

What is it now?

Your dad said his cycle's messed up.

Why can't you get him a new one now that you earn well, Doctor?

This is only the beginning, my boy.

We let our guests do the honors first and then we'll play.

I see.

Can you please clean this place? Make it fast.

If you need a hand, use this fellow.

Did you notice that? - Notice what?

They deliberately set off those party poppers for you to clean up.

You know, they invited the whole town to celebrate my birthday

and made me clean the mess up later that day.

Squeaky clean they are! - Have you no shame?

You speak such good English.

Why can't you find a job elsewhere? - No, no!

That's utter stupidity!

Know something? I've worked for them for 25 years.

This means you've become so thick-skinned

that you can't feel a thing!

Guess they'll ask you to dispose...

of your corpse. - Karthi?

Why is this all making sense to me?

That's crazy! - Hi, Uncle!

Hi, kiddos! How are you two?

We're good. How have you been?

I'm amazing.

What did you bring for us?

Tell us, Uncle!

Close your eyes and I'll tell you.

Ew, don't do that!

There's a time to work, a time to play and a time to eat.

It's dinner time, now!

Oh, okay. - Disgusting!

You don't have to wait for me to start eating.

Like I'm an outsider. I'm family too!

Take your seat, bro.

Sit down.

I'll ask you something since we're family.

Everyone has an aim in life.

Mine is, to work in the IAS cadre for the Prime Minister.

I want to be a Collector like Grandpa!

Aww! - I want to be a lawyer

like Hema Granny!

So sweet, darling!

I want to be a famous singer like Sid Sriram.

What a farce! - Oh, my! That's wonderful!

So, Karthi…

What's yours?

Uncle…

Mine is, a sweaty workout for an hour in the morning.

Eat three whole meals a day.

Get eight hours of uninterrupted sleep.

And then, do and speak what I like.

That's it. My aim.

That's…That's your personal one.

I'm asking profession wise, you know?

What field would you like to pursue? In terms of job, employment…

I'll do anything I get.

Whatever the work,

I will do all of this included.

You must have something from within, right?

Something you're passionate-- - Ew, I don't have

anything of that sort.

Thought he would've understood me by now…

Chill, Daddy. Chill! - Eat a bit, Dad!

His BP's shot up, Sister Madam! - Oh, no!

If that's the case, his sleep pattern will be disturbed.

Oh, my God! He's been a pain since he got here.

Shiv darling?! - Aravind…

He'd surely get a migraine in the morning.

And then he'll wake up late, take the day off…

I'll check up on him. - What do you mean?

Why upset him and made him take an unnecessary day off?

Who, me? - You, of course!

Do you realize how much loss occurs if he's off?

Will you bear it? - How will I…

Come, let's go.

Let's check on Grandpa who's sick. - Okay, Daddy.

What is even happening, Anandhi?

Did I time travel to the wrong place?

Or, am I stuck in another universe?

Or, am I going crazy, stuck in a time loop?

Argh, I'm so confused!

Listen to me.

You’re free to act or speak according to your heart’s desire.

Not at the cost of other's expense.

And now, everyone left without properly eating.

I know how you behave. But the others?

Please be aware of that.

Anandhi… Anandhi! Ana--

Oh, shut up.

I've never seen him walk away from the dinner table, ever!

It was so insulting!

What if they hated your food but didn't want to hurt you,

so they made a fuss and walked off?

Now, why did he bring that up and got me all thinking?

Why are you here when they don't respect you?

Toss this aside. Meet Harris Jeyaraj in Chennai and live your dream!

Screw my aim.

But I now know your true aim. - Finally someone did.

Idlis have gone cold.

Make dosas and bring them to my room. Make them crispy!

How's he already a pain to everyone?

Coincidentally, it's full moon night.

What are you gawking at?

I last saw you at Anandhi's wedding.

I'm only seeing you now after you returned from studying abroad.

On another note,

you look awesome.

Argh, Keshav!

Coming, Ma'am.

Here's the scheduled timetable you asked for.

Read it loudly and clearly.

Me? - Yeah.

Alright, then.

5:00 a.m.: Wake up call.

6:00 -7:00 a.m.: Yoga, walking and jogging.

Heck no.

7:30 a.m.: Breakfast.

8:30 a.m. - 5:30 p.m.: Office hours.

At 6:30 p.m. sharp, dinner time.

And at 7:30 p.m.: Bedtime.

It's now my bedtime.

Good night, you two. - Good night.

Here's your copy of it.

Read it thoroughly before bed.

Now you know how obediently everyone follows it.

You will also do the same. - But, this is…

No one's around.

I know you're getting back at me for teasing you long ago.

I was only a kid.

Let's forget and forgive each other.

How can I ever forget that?

Rewind and replay what happened at the wedding.

Bye!

'I remember her struggling to dance at Anandhi's wedding.'

'How did she figure out that I teased her?'

"You're a beautiful lady vibing in a colorful saree, buddy…"

"Are you ready to marry, you beauty?"

"My gosh, hubby!"

"Looking handsome in what he's wearing"

"A silk clad veshti, naughty!"

"Mr. Ultimate duty wifey!"

"Come on!"

"Hey!"

"Why do my feet freeze, As he comes near?"

"Why does my voice hush, Caught by this fear?"

"Your lips like dew Tremble my place"

"Half-formed words Disappear without trace"

"Just a glance at your face, Like milk it turns light"

"Oh, your silence draws patterns, Ever so slight"

"Why do my feet freeze, As he comes near?"

"Why does my voice hush, Caught by this fear?"

I feel Archana's flirting with you, dude.

Oh, please. She's out of my league. - Are you serious?

Like I'd ever fall for her.

Hush, she might hear! - Let her hear.

I thought I was being clear about that.

"A silk clad veshti, naughty Mr. Ultimate duty wifey!"

"Come on!"

"His eyes spark a flame I can’t resist"

"That smile of his, like a lover’s kiss"

"When my pallu falls, I barely care"

"So captivated by his stare!"

"A six-foot flame of desire is he One glance, I’m caught in his fire"

"Like shade in the sun’s hot light, He’s the chill in my fevered night"

"Alone..."

"Alone in this silent night"

"My life began when he came into sight"

"Companion, My faithful companion so dear"

"May he walk with me, forever here"

"Why do my feet freeze…"

"Oh, dear God!"

"Why do my feet freeze, As he comes near?"

"Why does my voice hush, Caught by this fear?"

"Your lips like dew Tremble my place"

"Half-formed words Disappear without trace"

"Just a glance at your face, Like milk it turns light"

"Oh, your silence draws patterns, Ever so slight"

"My love, my sweet and dear, My vibrant bride, forever near"

"My angel, my rarest find, My radiant wife, with love entwined"

"My angel, my rarest find, My radiant wife, with love entwined"

"My angel, my rarest find, My radiant wife, with love entwined"

'Karthi thought Archana would seek revenge'

'for what happened at the wedding.'

'But something unexpected happened.'

'This dance show judge-looking guy is Dr. Vinay.'

'He's this hospital's MD.'

'A close friend of Archana's.'

'Her best buddy, bestie… Call it whatever you want.'

Good morning.

Hey, hi! - Hello!

Who's this brother? - This is Karthik.

Oh. - He's my sister-in-law's brother.

He’s the law school dropout I told you about.

Okay, okay. - He's from Chennai.

Karthik, he's Dr. Vinay.

Hi! - Hi.

Please, sit.

So, are you here for work or just on vacation?

Actually, I-- - No, he's…

I'm here for my sister's-- - He's here for that job.

Ah! Okay, got it.

What's she talking about? - Karthi.

If you don't mind, can you stand up?

Oh. Didn't understand, huh?

I asked you to stand.

I understood the first time, brother.

Very good. - I don’t get why I need to stand.

Come on. Do as he says.

Turn to your right.

Should I repeat it? Come on, turn.

Good. Now, this side.

Quick.

Now, sit.

Fantastic selection, Archu!

I knew you'd bring the right guy.

But I didn't expect him to be this perfect.

Superb selection.

Superb, brother. - Thank you, Vinay.

Amazing job! - Thank you, Vinay.

Where do you stay?

At her-- - In my house.

Oh!

I have something important to talk to you.

I'll tell you later.

What's it about?

Won't you talk about it in front of me?

Okay, then.

Bro, I’ve had a huge crush on Archu since school.

I would've confessed at least 20 times.

"I want to study more."

"I'll marry the man my dad chooses for me."

"You're my best friend, buddy."

She says all these and keeps rejecting me.

Oh, she already rejected you?

Good. - Excuse me?

I was shocked that she rejected you.

She did, brother. So, when you're free…

I want you to convince her to date me.

You brought me here for this? - Please, do this for me.

I'll treat you in this canteen.

Treat me here? - Yeah!

I promise. - I'll do it, brother.

Superb! Thank you. See you.

Do you even like him?

Then why is he rambling like this?

Thank God I set a reminder, Archu.

I lent you 1200 rupees for fuel.

You told me you'll return it in two days.

But, it's been a week.

It's just a reminder. - Wow!

Nice meeting you, brother. - Very nice.

Archu…

Tell me the truth.

Is he really your hospital's owner?

It’s because of this behavior that he became the owner.

And you’re a bouncer because of your loose mouth.

Bouncer?!

Here's your uniform.

You’re the hospital’s bouncer from today.

In this uniform, you look-- - Like a minister's black cat?

Click a picture.

Good morning, Ma'am. - Good morning!

He's Karthik, our new bouncer.

Where are you from, bro? - I'm from Chennai.

You came from Chennai for this petty job?

Actually, I--

He’s been packed up and sent here to serve a punishment.

From now on, he's under your control.

Make him cover all three shifts.

Don't grant him leave.

All the best, Mr. Bouncer.

Why would you do this? - Karthik.

Come with me.

This is the ICU unit.

There are two beds here.

One, here. And the other, there.

Duty doctors will visit thrice.

We allow attenders only once.

If a patient's visitors create problems,

it's your job to control them.

Okay? Your seat's outside. You can sit there.

Karthi.

Go. Sit there.

Your dad's been on the ventilator for a week like a lemon in a fridge.

This can't go on any longer.

We must register it today.

Alright? - Okay.

I’ll read out his will one last time.

The first son gets the Coonoor tea estate.

The second son gets the chocolate factory in Avalanche.

The shopping complex in Kotagiri

is for the third son. - Okay.

What are you staring at?

What happened to him?

He’s half dead.

The ventilator’s just keeping him alive for a bit.

What?!

He’s got three sons, all of them wastrels.

They’ve been fighting over his properties.

So they've hooked him to the ventilator till this gets settled.

What the hell is this?

Will your hospital do anything for money?

Talk to your MD and stop this.

It’s a sin to keep a soul from moving on.

Brother…

Don’t get me fired on your first day here.

Now I know why they sent you here.

Please understand. - Don't say anything.

Please get out of here.

Give me my share.

If not, I won't spend a penny for his burial.

Every time you come here to get his signature,

you stir up trouble instead!

Will the registration happen today or not?

Sir, that's why we're here!

Get it done, quickly.

How selfish could you be to stop a soul from departing?

Hey! - Hey…

That isn’t what I intended to say.

According to Section 464,

it is illegal to get a signature from someone who’s unconscious.

It's a forgery. - You…

We've got the registrar on our side.

Even this hospital's owner can't question us.

Who the hell are you?

Bloody bouncer, get out! - Move!

Sir, what happened?

We've been running this hospital for generations.

We have a reputation to maintain in this town.

And you ruined it just like?! Who do you think yo--

Interesting, that you see it as business

instead of providing service.

Slow claps for you.

Save your sarcasm for someone else.

We made you the ICU's bouncer to keep things under control.

But you're the one creating problems.

Do you know the amount of damage you've caused?

It's-- - I'll tell you.

Table, fifty thousand.

Glass window, fifty thousand.

Lab door, fifty thousand.

Ceiling light, fifty thousand.

Scanning machine and monitor, five lakhs.

Main door, fifty thousand.

In total, eight lakhs plus GST.

Including your fuel amount,

it's eight lakhs, one thousand and two hundred rupees.

Archana, you've got only two options.

Either you pay up the eight lakhs

or you work for a year without salary.

Ball's in your court.

Please, don't stare at me while I eat.

It's making me nervous.

You went in as a bouncer of a hospital.

But you vandalized the place.

How dare you do that?

Uncle, that old man was almost dead.

But they hooked him to a ventilator just to get his properties.

How dare they do that? - Damn it.

See.

Hospitals follow certain rules and protocols.

They adhere to all of that for it to occur.

However, mistakes like this are bound to happen.

What do you want them to do?

Similarly, a fight has certain rules and protocols.

I follow all that.

But still, some furniture tends to get broken.

How am I responsible for that?

You know what Vadivelu said?

"A fight's not a fight without a torn shirt." Am I right, Keshav?

What a classic dialogue, that one. Very nice.

Disgusting. - Sorry.

Sir, you’ll feel hungry in the middle of the night

if you don’t eat now.

Ask him to eat for me as well.

Because of you, I ended up teasing him accidentally.

Karthik, the three sons kept their dad

on a ventilator for three months for their own reasons.

Why did you interfere?

Aunty, in a few years, Uncle and you will grow old.

Then, your daughter and son will fight for this house

and will keep you on life support without letting you die.

How would you feel then? Tell me, Aunty. Tell me!

Mummy, what happened?

Mummy! Mummy!

Calm down. - You can't even imagine that,

right? Think about that poor old man.

Now tell me. Was I wrong?

This boy has an answer for everything from day one.

Oh, my God! You are toxic. - You shut her off, man.

You didn’t even discuss it with me or get my permission

before bringing him here and giving him a job.

Deal with him yourself.

Best of luck.

Come on, kids. Let's have dinner in our room.

Hey, what's this new habit?

I'm extremely sorry, Archana.

I never expected this to happen.

I'll pay for your hospital's loss.

I don't mind working there for free.

That's not my problem.

But do you know how rude Vinay was today?

He insulted me in front of his parents.

Why do I have to-- - You need not.

Leave your job.

Start a clinic.

I'll talk to your dad.

I've signed a three-year contract.

Will you go to jail for me?

My God!

A three-year contract?!

Don't you know that it's wrong to sign bonds?

Aren't you educated?

I'll tell you a way out. - Stop.

According to--

Archana, do you know my school's P.E teacher?

Rajavel sir? - Yeah.

He fractured his leg in a football match

and has been bedridden for six months.

So, Principal Maria Mary was looking for an assistant for him.

I'm thinking of taking him there.

What's your opinion? - Superb!

Amazing idea!

Only Sister Maria Mary can deal with people like him.

Superb idea.

How long have you been working here?

Six years.

Why do you ask? - Simply asked.

Good morning, Ma'am.

Good morning, Anandhi. What can I do for you?

This is my brother, Karthik.

We talked about him yesterday. - Ah! Yes.

Look, Mr. Karthik.

Keep up her name.

All the best.

I'll keep up our school's reputation, too.

I'll do my best.

We'll see. Come, Anandhi.

Let's go. - Yes, Ma'am.

Lords Muruga, Allah, and Jesus, save me!

Uh… where were we?

Chapter… - Excuse me, Ma'am. I'm Karthik.

I've just joined the P.E department.

Yeah, I know.

The management informed us.

Tell me. What is it?

It's… P.T period for 11-C now.

But you're teaching them math now.

I know it's P.T now.

Oh, you know? - I do this all the time.

Do you have a problem?

I want to ask you one thing.

Will you lend me your class during a tournament or sports meet?

Silence!

Do you know how low their math scores have been each year?

Will you take responsibility for their scores this year?

So even after you cut their P.E. time for math,

they’re still scoring low.

Is that their fault or yours? - Hey.

Students, you decide.

Which one do you prefer? Math or a match?

Hey, what do you think you are doing?

Where the hell are you going?

Hey, stop.

Look what you've done!

Why are you resigning over this small issue, Ma'am?

Please don't do this. - Ma'am.

The day I lost control over my students and stopped obeying me,

working here felt meaningless.

One more thing.

I cannot work…

with people like him around.

Work somewhere else then. - Mr. Karthik!

Please be silent.

Okay. Now, how do we solve this?

Ma'am, he won't work here from tomorrow.

Excuse me, Mr. Karthik.

May I offer you some advice?

Please change your attitude.

Yeah. - Otherwise…

you'll struggle a lot in the future.

May I offer you some advice, Madam?

Work on your attitude as well.

Else, the students will struggle in their future.

Bye.

Pray to Lord Krishna and take the blessings.

Hare Krishna. Hare Krishna.

You'll take it from there, huh?

The town comes to you for their problems.

What problem do you guys have?

It's… - Priest…

All of us are mentally disturbed these days.

Mental torture.

Negative energy. - Negative?

Yeah. - What's that?

Call him, Dad.

Come here, Karthik.

That's alright.

Please, please come.

I'm totally fine. No problem. - Hey.

You better come here.

He's Karthik.

He's from Chennai.

He's been staying with us for a while.

He's my daughter-in-law's brother.

Greetings, Priest. - Greetings, brother.

Do you get it now? - Of course, I get it.

Where's the person who runs at the sound of offering?

Ah, yes, Keshav. - Keshav is sick.

He's on leave for ten days.

Kindly pray for his speedy recovery.

Yes, yes.

I asked you to pray for him.

Oh, Lord! - Stop it.

It’s just a minor injury in his leg, Aunty.

Why did you give him ten days off for that?

I think he's lying to get leave from you.

Don't believe him.

Ask him to be here tomorrow.

Shut up…

…your bloody mouth.

You! You're the reason for everything.

What did I do? - Don't make me talk.

What happened, Mom?

What happened? Why are you upset with him?

What's wrong?

Why are you all asking me? Ask him.

He's the culprit.

Wire me the money to my wife's number.

Tell me. What happened?

Come on. Speak up. What happened to Keshav?

Oh, Doctor!

Just like the Phoenix among the birds,

my Phoenix channel is famous among other channels.

I've posted nearly 100 videos. - Very good.

It's got a whopping 200 views.

Each video's got 200 views?!

No. In total.

Two hundred views in total?

Yuck! - Brother, mind your words.

Gosh! Sorry, Doctor.

He does this with everyone and creates chaos.

Treat him somehow and help him recover.

Sister!

Brother, the incidents from your childhood…

the beliefs you built from them…

We have to know what they are. So, let's travel to your past.

Time travel?

No. Mind travel.

Oh!

Forget the 'tik-tok' sound.

Focus on the black and white swirl in your hand.

And listen to me carefully.

Concentrate.

You are now 30 years old.

Travel slowly back to your past.

Twenty-five.

Twenty.

Fifteen.

Eleven. - Hey.

It's ten after 15. Are you that dumb?

Go on and recite the five times table to me.

Five times one is-- - Shut up.

He's a reputed doctor, man.

How dare you argue with him?

Doc, try again. Please.

Hold this. - Holding it.

Look at him. - Listen to me carefully.

Now you're 30.

Travel slowly back again to your past.

Now, you're 25.

Twenty.

Fifteen…

Ten.

I calculated correctly this time. Why are you breaking this time?

I was breaking everything when I was ten.

Only then my dad will get me new stuff.

Your dad will get it.

But my dad can't. Because he's dead.

What the hell is this, man?

You can't even concentrate for two minutes?!

What are you even going to achieve in life?

Ask your sister.

When I get into a job, my concentration will be on point.

Show me how you concentrate.

Show me now, or I'll break something.

Did you think I'd run away if you threaten me?

I wrote the definition for concentration, man.

Don't keep talking. Show him how you concentrate.

Just give me that. You hold it.

Concentrate.

Now you are fifty years old.

Go to your past.

Forty.

Thirty.

Twenty.

Ten.

Hay! He's in.

Sangeetha, I drank phenyl instead of sherbat and lost my voice.

Can I still become a singer?

Your current voice sounds amazing, Keshav.

You'll become a great singer someday.

Can you sing a song for me, man?

Why stop with a song? I'll dance for you too.

[Tamil song plays]

Hey.

Is this the Indian Idol?

Why are you dancing? Do something and stop him.

Or, I'm leaving.

[Tamil song plays]

Keshav!

Don’t stay trapped in your 10-year-old mindset.

I have to bring you back to your 50-year-old self!

[Tamil song plays]

You fool! You hypnotized a perfectly sane man and drove him mad.

Do something and bring him back. This is not okay.

Please! Please! Help him.

Keshav. You better get down or I'll thrash you.

Hey, do something.

What do I do now?

Do something.

This is a sedative.

But it'll take like a week for him to wake up.

Give him that. Quick!

But I drank some this morning since I didn't have any patients.

Gosh! I'm starting to sober up, and I'm shivering.

Why don't you do it? - I studied law, man.

I'm not trained for it.

It doesn't matter, man. Just poke it somewhere.

Poke it somewhere?!

Alright. Give that to me.

How did you become a doctor?

Good lord!

What is this?

Keshav hasn't taken leave in the last 25 years.

Even when he isn't here, I can hear him saying "Sister Madam!"

I don't want anyone in this house to suffer

because of your brother, Anandhi.

Ask him to leave immediately.

Archana is right.

I don't mind sponsoring his flight tickets.

Uncle.

I haven't asked you for anything until now.

But I'm asking you for the first time.

I told my dad I'd change him, hoping you'd all stand by me.

I'm clueless right now.

Please help me, Uncle.

In my IAS career, I've handled way too many riots and protests.

This is nothing compared to those. Just relax.

Don't worry. I'll take care of him.

I'll take care of him. - Dad, what's your plan?

Karthi will come along with me to work from tomorrow.

That's my order.

Your countdown for a better future starts from tomorrow.

Hello, sir.

Uncle, your daughter made me a bouncer.

My sister made me a PT master.

Your son didn't even try.

What's your plan for me?

To turn you into a good human being.

Super, Uncle. All the best!

Everyone gave you a job.

And you showed them what you can do.

Unlike them, I'm not going to give you any work.

All you need to do is sit on the bench.

The day you realize doing nothing is the most difficult

thing in this world, will be the day…

Let's go? Come on.

Hello, sir.

Hello! - Hello, sir.

You look familiar. You are…?

Sir, we're from Pannakkadu village.

We've been giving you a petition every day for the last six months.

How could you ask who we are?

You all look fully dressed and neat. So I couldn't recognize you.

Alright, tell me. - Sir.

We have tied the sacred thread and started the festival in our village.

We thought we'd hand over the petition

immediately after praying to God.

Please do something, Collector sir.

Sure.

I'll see.

What exactly is the problem?

A tiger has been eating our cattle for a few months now.

It even ate up a baby recently.

We've been submitting petitions to install

an electric fence around the village.

But he hasn't taken any action.

What does that MP want?

He's planning to buy Pannakkadu village and build a resort there.

Oh! He and his loafty goals!

We've got strict orders from Delhi

not to put electric fence for that village, sir.

Yet, they waste their time coming everyday, not knowing a thing.

Their fate. Alright, let's eat samosas before it gets cold.

Sure, sir,

Why does this smell like petrol? - Petrol?!

Yes. - I don't smell anything, sir.

Where did you buy this? - At our regular shop, sir.

I wonder if they fried it in oil or petrol!

'Come out, Collector sir.'

'Fulfill our demands.'

'Listen carefully, sir.'

'Instead of dying of fear every day,'

'we'll die right away.'

Hey, don't. - What the hell are they doing, sir?

Hey! Stop it!

Hey! Idiots!

Don't come closer. We'll burn ourselves.

Don't stop us. - I said don't come closer.

The collector must come here and fulfill our demands.

Don't stop us. - Meet our demands.

Hey! You!

Hey! Give me way. Move.

Give way. - Move, guys! Move.

Move away. Now.

I said move away.

Go that side.

If our demands aren't met by today,

ten of us will set ourselves on fire right here.

Stop talking like fools.

I don't want to be blamed if you die. Give it to me.

Here, sir.

Happy now?

Thank you so much, sir!

Tell that MP I agreed to sign because

things were getting out of hand.

They soured my mood. Cancel all my meetings.

Alright. Okay!

What are you doing, Karthi?

Ask the driver to take the car out. - Five minutes, Uncle.

Our car is out of petrol. The driver has gone to get it.

Out of petrol? - Yes.

The tank was full in the morning. - Oh, yes. It was full.

But they wanted petrol to light themselves.

So, I gave them both the idea and the petrol.

You…

How dare you? Didn't I ask you to keep quiet?

I wasn't doing anything, Uncle.

I heard their story while doing nothing.

After that, I couldn't sit idle.

A collector is a government servant.

He works for this nation and you.

You are the boss who elected them.

If something is bothering you, he has to sort it out.

Instead of demanding, you're begging him.

Wait. I'll be back.

Look at how happy they all are.

Give me five minutes, sir.

I'll fill the petrol before you finish your samosas, sir.

Pour it on me instead!

Uncle… - Come on, do it.

You…

Uncle… - Sir.

Oh, God!

Collector's son-in-law!

Collector's son-in-law!

'What?! Collector's son-in-law?'

Collector's son-in-law!

Collector's son-in-law. Our small gift for your help.

Accept this.

What is this for?

If you do 'pooja' and pray to this, all your wishes would be fulfilled.

Oh! - Yes. See you then.

Why are you giving me that look?

Oh, this?

The Pannakkadu villagers mistook me for your son-in-law.

And were adamant that I come as the chief guest for their function.

Hence, the new look.

The villagers were ecstatic about your approval

for the electric fencing.

They also said if we prayed to this stick, our wishes would come true.

You won't have to go to Delhi anymore,

they'll come to you instead.

Here you go.

Uncle!

Get out!

You will not stay here another minute. Get out!

Please don't take me wrong, Uncle.

You didn't invite me to this house.

I came because my sister invited me.

One word from her and I'll leave.

Anandhi.

Ask him to get out of the house immediately.

RIGHT NOW!

I apologize for all his mistakes.

I'm really sorry!

Why are you apologizing? - Stop.

I don't care what you do.

But I've told you a million times to not hurt anyone.

Why do you keep doing this?

Anandhi… - Apologize to Uncle.

Do it now.

I didn't do anything wrong.

Why must I apologize?

To be honest, he should be thanking me.

Heard that?

Look how he's talking.

He's all set to insult you.

What are you saying, Aunty?

I’ve done him a favor

by helping him finish a six month pending petition in half a day!

The villagers are celebrating him.

As a collector, he should've done this earlier.

Shut up!

You're talking too much! - Mom, wait.

You think 'you're' the collector of Nilgiris district, Karthik?

Or did 'you' pass the IAS exam?

Doesn't he know what to do when?

Who are you to question him?

I don't have to be an official to do good to people.

The intentions are good enough.

Come on. It's too easy to act like a hero

or give advice from the outside.

Work inside the system for one day.

Then you'll understand the difficulties and the protocols.

Whatever.

Hey!

Anandhi, ask him to get out.

I can't stand his irritating face!

Didn't you hear what I said?

Aravind, no one will get into trouble because of him after this.

It's my responsibility.

Please don't send him out of this house.

Please. - Damn it!

He won't listen if I ask him to get out.

And you won't listen if I ask you to send him out.

Neither of you listen to my words.

Your parents didn't raise you well.

Uncle! - Yes! They didn't raise you well.

Don't unnecessarily speak.

I'll admit if you say I wasn't raised well.

I'm okay with it.

And that's how wrong everyone has perceived.

But how could you talk like this about my sister?

She did everything for you.

Uncle, he is right.

Only we know what our dad went through to raise us.

Only because of that, we've got a good education.

I'm able to work,

take care of the school and family and leading a happy life.

How could you even say that?

What you said is wrong.

Your attitude and behavior has changed after your brother arrived.

You talk and behave just like him.

You've never gone against Dad's words till now.

I'm wasn't.

I'm stating the fact.

It's the truth.

Uncle was wrong to say we weren't raised well.

It hurt me.

Uncle should apologize. - What?!

How dare you?

Hey! - What are you doing, Aravind?

How dare you beat her when I'm here?

Hands off.

What would you have done when I wasn't here?

Did you think she had no one?

Karthik, stop it!

Mr. Aravind.

You shouldn't have hit me. That was wrong.

Uncle.

The way you spoke about my dad is wrong too.

The day you two apologize,

is when I'll come back to this house.

Bye. - Anandhi, please don't go.

Dad. - I've heard enough.

My dad has taught me how to live

with self-respect.

Let's go. We'll face whatever comes.

You're the cause of all of this. - I don't care.

Let's go, Anandhi. - Go and stop her.

Bro… - Anandhi.

Saraswathi. - Yes.

I can't wait to meet my grandchildren.

It's been a long time. - Yes, yes.

What happened, dear?

Why are you crying?

Tell me. What's going on?

Karthi, you tell me at least.

What really happened?

What more should happen?

Aravind hit Anandhi, Mom.

I couldn't take it.

So, I asked her to come with me.

You would've done the same thing.

What are you saying?

Didn't I already tell you?

I told you to get her married to someone in Chennai

so we can visit often.

But you two put her in this jail saying they are IAS, IFS.

They're a draconian family!

I'm sorry to say.

We asked your daughter's hand for our son

only because she was well educated.

But your son proved that it was such a grave mistake.

Mom, why talk unnecessarily? Come inside.

I really want to invite you inside.

But…

They are the worst children anyone can have.

I can't bring myself to invite you home.

Get lost!

Heard him, Dad?

Did you see his arrogance?

'Next time we meet,' 'you'll see how much Karthi has changed.'

I promise.

Anandhi, I'm there for you.

You don't worry. We'll face whatever comes.

Brother! Unload them at the back. - Yes, sir.

Brother, we dropped off Madam's things

and the kids' toys at the back.

Is everything fine? Okay?

Before you risk a major blunder

at the collector's office and get fired,

resign that job

and focus on becoming a playback singer like Sid Sriram.

Thanks for your concern.

Ever since I hit puberty,

I’ve been living off the collector's salt and pepper.

So, there's no way I'm leaving this place.

Amazing. - So.

What do you think?

It’s clear you’re not Keshav but a certified knob head!

You caught on that quickly?

Brother! Park the vehicle over there.

Here you go. - My monkey plushie!

Wow! - Thanks, Uncle.

You all seem really hungry.

Let's do one thing.

Tell me what you're craving. I'll order it online.

I've got an offer. - I want chicken pizza!

Nice!

I want strawberry ice cream. - Karthi!

Can't you see what mess we are in? What do you think you're doing?

Why don't you zip it up?

Go to the room. Play inside.

Let's go. - Uncle, I want ice cream!

The kids haven't eaten yet-- - Hey! Shut up!

Anandhi, take the kids with you and leave.

We will join you.

Let's go to Aravind's house and apologize to everyone.

I'll apologize on his behalf, for heaven's sake!

Damn it, it’s all my ill fate!

Yes, Anandhi. Your dad's right.

Don’t gamble your life by trusting him.

We'll take him to Chennai.

You leave. - No, Mom.

My father-in-law talked poorly about how my dad raised me.

And my husband? He slapped me!

That's why I got out of that house.

This is my decision.

Please don't drag my brother into this.

Look, Anandhi.

If you keep dancing to his tunes…

You may have quarters now, but soon enough,

he'll have you out on the streets.

You'll ruin your life!

Dad.

Weren’t you the one who taught me to uphold my self-respect?

I'll step inside that house

only when my husband and father-in-law apologize to me.

What are you saying?

What if they never apologize to you?

I’ve got a brilliant idea. - To hell with your idea!

Talk only when you're asked to!

Do you get it? Tell me!

What have you got? Tell me.

I'm asking you! - No, sister. He'll yell at me.

Tell me, it's okay.

Divorce notice.

As per the Domestic Violence Act of 1863, Section 498A,

just handing him a divorce notice is enough.

Then, all the IAS, IFS, and Doctors of that

house will come running to you in a panic!

Because, reputation is everything to them.

How did I do? - Dear?

Dad?

Karthi? Karthi!

Why did you slap him, Dad?

He didn't say anything wrong!

You got him into law school,

and that's why he's pointing out the law.

My brother is right.

Wonderful!

With him around, you’re starting to sound just like him.

That's how much he's influenced you.

You both can deal with this however you want!

Dad.

This is my family issue.

My self-respect plays a huge role in this issue.

I'll handle this on my own. You two can stay out of this.

Please.

Anandhi.

Hi, Collector's son-in-law! What’s the point of worrying about it now?

You should've thought it through before acting

that way with my father.

See, it's not a mistake to make a mistake.

But it's a mistake to repeat the same mistake.

The only mistake I made was telling you where I am.

Don't get annoyed. Relax! Relax.

So? You've became a social media star overnight!

You're the talk of the town. - Hey!

You're my brother-in-law's sister.

I have every right to ask for your hand in marriage.

Moreover, I like you very much.

That's the reason why I came up with 'Collector's son-in-law'.

If you feel that's wrong,

I don't have any worries.

I love that you feel comfortable talking to me freely.

Why don’t you put in the same effort to apologize to my father?

I'll extend my full support!

Please? - If you put in the effort

to get your dad and brother to apologize to my sister,

I'll extend my full support!

Please?

You'll defend your sister if needed, right?

That's the only reason why I wanted to support you.

But you're acting all haughty with me too!

I won't face you ever again!

Goodbye!

'The number you're trying to call is currently not reachable.'

'Please try again later.'

'The number you're trying to call is currently not reachable.'

'Please try again later.'

Hey! - Brother.

Wait for a couple of minutes. - Sure.

What's wrong, Mom? - What, son?

Where the hell were you? How many times do I need to call you?

Why the hell you didn't answer?

I saw your missed call and kept calling you.

But the line was busy. What happened?

Your dad always informs me before heading out.

He left in the morning, and I haven't heard from him since.

He isn't answering my calls as well.

I'm worried sick, Karthi.

He’s probably nearby, and his mobile might be on mute.

Don’t stress yourself out.

This feels very strange.

Anandhi is not home.

Don't tell this to her and get her all tensed up.

I'll look for him.

Let me know if he calls you or comes home.

'The number you're trying to call is currently not reachable.'

Where did he go?

Dad is still not home, Karthi.

'Security Munnusamy mentioned' 'that he saw your dad'

'at the wine shop near the petrol bunk.'

Dad?

What’s with this new habit?

You advice people not to drink, but now you’ve picked it up?

Dad, I'm talking to you!

This is not good for you.

Dad, you're a heart patient!

I should've drank poison after what happened today!

I'm happy to drink this nasty thing!

Aravind?

Please don’t turn your back on my daughter and your kids

just because you're upset with my son.

I'll apologize for everything that happened.

Please take them back.

I beg you. - Listen.

I didn’t abandon them, and I certainly didn’t kick them out.

Your daughter grew so full of herself listening to your son

that she fought with my dad and left home.

What can I do? - Aravind.

I'll take Karthi immediately to Chennai.

He'll stay out of your life.

Please convince your parents and solve this issue, Aravind.

My daughter's life lies in your hands.

Your son isn’t going to look after you as you age,

so you all took my wife away just to rely

on her earnings later? Am I right?

Aravind, why are you talking like this?

Not my words. That’s what society will say in the future.

I'll even fall at your feet. - Murugesa!

Sir? - You're old yet so dumb!

You lost something elsewhere, but you’re looking for it here?

Are you happy now?

Who asked you to go to him?

He humiliated you without even considering your age!

He thinks there's no one to question him?

You have me. As your son,

I'll confront him! - Hey!

You aren't my son.

But an orphan.

Anandhi was our only child.

It was our cursed fate

we took you in and raised you.

You showed your true colors!

You ruined my daughter's life and left her stranded!

Wretched sinner!

Your sister was five years old.

Your mother was pregnant for the second time.

Your sister was very happy about welcoming a baby.

She was that excited!

If we had a boy, she wanted to call him Karthik.

Honestly, she took better care of your mother than I did.

Isn't it?

I was nine months pregnant.

I went into labor all of a sudden. He was at college.

Neighbors admitted me to the hospital.

She was holding my hand until I was taken into the labor ward.

But our damn luck…

The child was stillborn.

We were devastated.

But your sister?

She was standing there, holding sweets to distribute.

I didn't know how to face her.

With a heavy heart,

I made up a story saying her baby brother was sick

and has to stay at the hospital for two months.

The way she tossed the sweets, screaming, when I said this,

I want my baby brother.

Daddy, I want my baby brother now!.

Once I returned home…

She was constantly crying and fell into depression

asking when her baby brother would come.

We took her to every doctor around.

But no one could figure out what was wrong with her.

As a last resort, we saw a psychiatrist.

The doctor suggested that we go to an orphanage to adopt

so that her mind can ease a bit.

In order to save our daughter, we had no other option.

That's why we visited an orphanage in Pallavaram.

That's where we found you.

We brought you home saying you were discharged from the hospital.

The joy we witnessed in her eyes…

Goodness gracious! I've never seen anything as priceless as that!

Do you know what she said the first time she held you in her arms?

"I'll make sure my brother is well taken care of and never cries!"

Till now, that's how she's looking after you.

You ruined one such person's life and left her stranded.

Your sister is the reason why you are standing with us.

I'll even fall at your feet. - What, Dad…

Help your sister get back with her husband.

Like how they lived happily at the Collector's place,

they should continue to live that way.

He must give me his word that he forgave you.

Make it all happen and then you can call me Dad.

Until then, don’t you dare face me!

Son, please keep this from your sister.

She has no idea about this.

If she learns about this, she'd be heartbroken.

Please, son.

"Does the sweet, comforting lullaby"

"Whisper your name, dear sister?"

"Even if you didn’t bear me,"

"Aren't you the mother I've always known?"

"Are you the stream that gently flows"

"Through a parched and barren land?"

"Were you sent to stand by me"

"Holding my hand through every trial?"

"You're the angel Who watched over this wild child!"

"You raised me wrapped In your loving hold!"

"Even with a mere few years between us"

"I’ll forever name you as my mother"

"Does the sweet, comforting lullaby"

"Whisper your name, dear sister?"

"Even if you didn’t bear me,"

"You're the mother I've always known"

"Are you the stream that gently flows"

"Through a parched and barren land?"

"Were you sent to stand by me"

"Holding my hand through every trial?"

"Through every mischief,"

"You stood by me, defending me!"

"You are my wish"

"And my blessing, dear sister!"

"When I’m about to get hit"

"You'll hide me behind your back"

"You are my enduring shield,"

"A protector through it all"

"If I’m a fierce storm You are the soothing breeze"

"With that smile of yours, You'd defeat me!"

"If I am the river, Then you are the blooming tree"

"Making sure I thrive and flourish"

What's wrong, Uncle? - Keshava!

Why didn't you close the main gate?

I'll do it now, sir.

Hey! Tell Munnusamy to close the gate.

It's closed now, sir. - What's the use? He's here.

There goes another 28 grand racquet!

Uncle!

Relax. I'll handle this.

So, brother?

You're still here, even though you're done with the vacation?

I heard you took your sister and the kids away from the family.

Super!

Congrats!

What's your next plan?

Trying to split Archana and I apart?

That won't happen.

What's with the glare? Are you mad?

Nothing.

I came here to apologize to everyone.

Just two minutes, please.

Uncle! He's here to apologize to you all.

He's asking for a couple of minutes.

After that, we can continue with our family time.

This game is mine.

Silly!

Sir, I go with what feels right to me.

Never cared about other's feelings.

I’ll never be that person again.

I swear.

Everyone, please forgive me.

It doesn't make a difference now. I don't care!

Uncle, you slapped my sister during the argument.

I held your collar out of anger.

What I did was wrong.

I'll apologize. Please don't abandon my sister and your kids, please.

I'll even fall-- - Hey, Karthik.

She made it clear

that she won’t step inside until we say we’re sorry.

Forget about me. She expects 'him' to say sorry?

How dare she, man? Karthik! Get out.

Aunty, unintentionally, I’ve caused you all so much.

I sincerely apologize for that.

Oh! You commit a lot of mistakes.

And all of a sudden, you show up and apologize.

And we have to forgive you as if nothing happened, is that it?

What do I need to do to make you all forgive me? I'll do that.

Please don't punish my sister and the kids.

Please.

Why am I dealing with this nuisance this early in the morning?!

Man! Keshava, come. - Sir?

Yes, sir. What is it?

What's happening? - Dad!

Sorry, Keshav. I made a mistake.

Forgive me.

What nonsense! - I won't repeat this again.

Go, get on with your work.

Sir! Why did you slap me now?

Tell me, sir.

Tell me! - I apologized, didn't I?

Do you think your sorry will make things fine?

Get lost! I'm not going to stay here anymore.

He has been working here as our house help for 25 years.

If he’s got that much self-respect,

think about how much we have

as an IAS, IFS, a lawyer, and a doctor?

Out.

Uncle, I'm-- - I said out!

What's wrong with you? Why did you slap Keshavan?

Hey, Karthi!

Hey…

Didn't I warn you not to go to that house?

So why did you still go?

Hey…

I'm asking you!

Anandhi…

I didn't expect them to speak to me that way!

You didn't expect it, but I saw it coming!

I was certain that they'd shame you!

They might've believed that, I sent you to settle things between us!

Do we really need this?

Say something.

Look Archana…

Let me clarify this again.

It's not what you think.

I didn’t send him to your home,

he went on his own.

Whenever your father and brother are ready to apologize,

I'll come back to that house!

I'm getting late for class.

I'll get going.

Bye!

Hey! Why are you telling my sister everything like a news update?

Don't you have better things to do?

I have plenty to do, but do you know why I'm doing this now?

Do you?

Because I really like you.

I'm in love with you!

You're speaking without even getting it.

Hey…

Archana…

I feel the same way about you!

But no one at your home likes me!

I doubt they'll change their minds in the future!

Let's not do this.

The fact that you like me,

is all that matters!

I'll continue to help you.

Helping a loved one doesn't need permission!

A heart to help is enough.

Hey!

Why are you guys crying?

Anandhi, what happened?

It's nothing. I've made dinner.

Eat your dinner and sleep!

I've got work to do.

Did your mom scold you two?

If Uncle Karthik moves back to his home,

we can enjoy life with Dad again, right?

So, Arjun asked Mom when she’d send Uncle Karthik home!

But Mom yelled shut up,

and slapped Arjun harshly.

Abi, Arjun…

It’s been too long since I asked you both to sleep.

Are you two going to bed or not?

I assure you both will be back with your parents,

living happily in that house!

It's my responsibility. - Promise?

Promise!

It's time to sleep now. Good night!

Hey, they are kids.

They won't get any of this.

Don't you overthink it. - Hmm.

Why are you crying?

I shouldn't have come to your house.

I've ruined everything.

The kids are missing their Dad.

You’re not to blame for what happened.

Once they realize their mistake,

and apologize to me,

everything will get better.

I know that things will get better.

Until then, I’ll be here to take care of you and the kids.

You fell sick as a new born…

and was hospitalized for four long months.

You were brought home after that.

You were such a small baby,

crying through the night.

I created a scene with our parents just to hold you in my arms.

Do you know what I said to them?

I promised to take good care of my brother forever!

But today, my brother vows to care for me and my kids.

I feel proud.

Don't you worry.

Go, finish dinner and sleep.

Daddy!

Hi Daddy!

Hi Kids!

How did you guys get here?

Uncle brought us here.

Alright! Have you both eaten? Do you want anything?

Uncle got us chocolates, biscuits,

and all our favorites. We're completely full!

That's me.

Dad, I'm missing you so much!

I can’t sleep at night without you!

Daddy missed you too, sweetie!

I'm unable to sleep at night too!

Sorry, buddy. - Daddy?

What is it? - For the school function tomorrow,

my friends asked me to bring my parents!

Will you attend the function, Daddy?

I’ll come and spend the whole day with you. Okay?

Thank you, Daddy. - Okay, Daddy.

Murugesa, cancel my plans for tomorrow.

I'm going to the kids' school.

[Tamil song plays]

[Tamil song plays]

Thank you, children.

The Bharatanatyam performance was great.

Next, Abi and Arjun present a skit about parenting and family values!

The skit is written by our own Karthik!

Little tiger, you look so happy with your family!

Does your family never have problems?

Yes, it does!

No matter the problem, we stick together.

We never part ways!

Little elephant…

Do your parents love you?

I was in my mom's belly for 18 months!

From that time on, we have remained a happy family.

Arjun, I want our family to be as happy as these animals!

Is that possible? - Yes.

Praying to god makes anything possible!

Shall we pray?

Dear god, just like these little animals…

We wish to be united as a family!

Kids, it's me god!

I heard your prayers. - God?

You can either be with your Mom,

or with your Dad.

You can’t be with them together! - God?

Who do you want to live with?

We want to live with them together, god!

Please, god! Please.

That's impossible.

Time has decided that you should live like this.

And, it can't be changed.

Now, tell me.

Whom do you wish to live with?

No, god. We wish to be together.

Please, god. Please!

Your fates cannot be changed.

At your age, this might be hard for you to get.

I cannot help you in this matter.

I'm sorry!

God. God!

God! God!

Why did the god say no?

Where are you god? Please come.

Arjun…

Daddy, please!

Let us all live together, Daddy.

I beg you.

Please.

Mom…

Please, Mom.

Please, for our sake, Mom!

I beg you, Mom.

Let us all live together, Mom!

Mummy…

Daddy, even god refused to help.

Can you at least help, please?

Mom…

Why did you kids say that?

I'll never leave your side.

I'll stay with you forever.

Everyone's saying that, you never liked us.

And that's why you left.

Who dared to say that?

School friends, Daddy.

You kids are Daddy's life!

I'll never leave your side.

I'm sorry!

Anandhi, come inside.

Hi, Kids! How are you?

I'm fine. - Wait, wait.

Why are you this excited?

What is it, Son?

You left home all by yourself.

Now you're home with new people. Where did they come from?

Dad…

All this sarcasm,

use it with those who work under you at the office!

This is a family.

Please don’t talk like that.

See!

He has completely changed his body language and style.

We'll see what else is different.

Tell me, Sir. I'm listening.

Dad…

That day, I hit Anandhi, but I later apologized.

You spoke ill of her dad.

Just say a simple 'sorry,' and we’ll let this go.

What, you want me to say sorry?

I said…

that, her parents didn’t raise her, and her brother well.

I believe it's entirely right!

Why should I apologize?

No, I don't understand.

Uncle. - Why should I apologize?

You said we weren't brought up well,

so easily that day.

But the deep meaning behind it, don't you see it?

What?

Are you saying that an IAS officer like me,

doesn't know the meaning of 'weren't raised up well'?

Well, aren't you a teacher? Enlighten me!

Please teach me, Madam. - Shiv!

Why are you arguing for nothing?

Anandhi has moved past it and is here to live with us.

For heaven's sake!

Stop your ego and forget everything.

Mrs. Hemamalini Sivagurunathan…

You're just an advocate.

Not a Judge!

Just keep that in mind. Okay?

Dad, what's gotten into you?

Why are you so full of superiority?

Why do you always think you're right?

Aravind…

I'm so sorry.

I don't think I can live here anymore!

I'm leaving.

Anandhi, don't go. - Anandhi, please.

Dad…

The day you let go of your complex,

and become the father, father-in-law,

and grandfather you're meant to be,

let me know.

I'll return home. - Oh!

Oh! - Bye, Mom.

Aravind, wait. - Oh, I'm ten minutes late

for lunch.

He won't change. - Care to join me?

How can you even talk like this in this situation?

I’m going to eat by myself.

Uncle, why do you look so happy?

Hey Uncle…

Stop looking at my brother as if he’s a villain.

My brother's a hero.

Super hero!

Like Captain America!

Kids, don't talk too much.

Go on. Go play.

Yaay! Let's go, Arjun. - Okay, Mummy.

Hey Karthik…

I’m the one who left home.

But why do you feel down as if you left home?

No, Aravind.

I thought you two are back together,

which means the problem is partly solved.

Now the issue has doubled because you both left!

Now, how will the Collector forgive me?

How will I face my parents? I'm so confused.

Karthi, at this point,

I don’t think Uncle will forgive you anytime soon.

But there's a way out.

Yes.

Archana's wedding.

Once Archana's wedding is fixed,

our problems will be solved.

Because, he values his public image.

If this happens, He'll let go of his ego,

and compromise with us!

This will surely happen. - When it comes to her wedding,

Archana always follows her father's wishes.

But we don’t know who uncle is thinking of.

Karthik Uncle!

Shall we start the game?

Game, right?

Let's start.

Archu?

All alone in this Ooty chill,

enjoying ice creams by yourself!

I can tell you have a sweet surprise for me!

Okay, Archu. Come on! Give it to me. Give it to me.

Who are you to speak to Vinay about my wedding?

Who gave you the right?

Vinay, do you have two minutes to talk?

Go on!

After observing Archana's activities,

I can tell that she's interested in me.

She's in love with me.

I'm assuming she wants to marry me too.

But practically, that's not possible.

You both are made for each other.

So please talk to your parents and prepare for your marriage!

It's the only thing that benefits all.

Oh god!

Vinay didn't respect me at all!

And, he didn't take my words seriously.

Who said he didn’t take it seriously?

My life is in critical condition because he took it too seriously!

Uncle, in this life…

can't I become your son-in-law?

Hey, Vinay…

Why are you crying like a child? What happened?

No, Uncle…

I've proposed to Archana many times.

But she always irritates me by calling me her 'friend'.

Sorry, Uncle.

Please help me out, Uncle.

Talk to her for my sake. - No, no.

Archana is a sweet and innocent girl.

She is… - To you Uncle. Not to me!

See, I know how to convince her.

I'll tell you now.

You are fully eligible to marry my daughter.

You're my son-in-law!

Happy? - Promise?

Promise! - Thanks, Uncle.

Super, Archana! That's great.

If your dad himself has given his word,

this wedding is so on!

Shut up!

My dad shouldn't decide who I marry.

I should!

I like you, and I want to marry you.

Archana…

Let's be practical.

Leave marriage,

will your dad at least forgive me?

It's not just you.

Nobody in your family can convince him.

Because his ego is as tall as Everest.

Mr.Karthi…

I’m going to tell you something you don’t know.

My dad never said no to my wishes.

Oh!

Because, I'm dad's little princess.

Wait and watch!

Dad, I have something important to talk to you.

What do you think about Karthik Mama?

Karthik Mama? - Yes, Dad.

Your father doesn't have a brother. Then who are you referring to?

Anandhi's brother. Shouldn't I need to call him Mama?

Karthi… Karthi Mama! - Yeah.

Go on.

Karthi is a new person now, Dad.

He's completely changed.

He's been waiting for a long time to apologize to you.

Please forgive him, Dad.

What I don't feel for Vinay, I feel for Karthi.

What are you trying to say?

I've decided that I want to marry Karthik.

Just get up.

Dad? - Will you please get up?

Dad, I'm your daughter. - No! Not anymore.

Because of that reckless decision you made against my advice,

you’re not my daughter anymore! Just get out and get lost!

If you're this stuck up…

I'm your daughter, I’m way worse!

Goodbye!

One more thing, I am going to marry Karthik.

Wait and watch.

Karthik Mama!

You boasted so much about being Dad's little princess,

only to mess up big time!

You! - Don't worry, Karthi.

You’ve got your sister, me, and a whole crowd backing you!

Look how worried Karthi Mama is!

Come again?

I'll explain it later. Sister-in-law…

Will you help us get married?

Of course.

Who else would I help if not you?

But your parents need to agree to the wedding.

Now, you can go home. - Correct.

Please.

My dad kicked me out. You are also doing the same.

Where will I go? Is there truly no one for me?

I'm here for you, Archana. Your Karthi.

You have me.

I won't ask you to go home like they did.

I'll take you and drop you home myself!

That's a great idea, Karthi. It's cloudy outside.

Take the jeep. - Thanks, Uncle. Come on.

You're kicking me out as well?

I won't go. - Aunty!

Hi… Mummy.

Mom, what's wrong? Is anything serious?

You're making a lot of mistakes in your personal life.

Her love for you doesn’t give you the right to take advantage

and fix her marriage without her consent.

You're still angry at our kids

and our grandkids even after they apologized!

What are your plans?

Your ego and arrogance are tearing this family apart.

I don't like this.

Please, Shiv.

For all these years, I’ve taken every decision in this family.

That’s how it will continue to be.

People who trust me can stay here.

Those who don't…

Including you.

Check.

This check is for you!

Loneliness is a real curse.

It is waiting for you!

Just as I passed the compound wall,

he sent me a WhatsApp voice note.

Just listen to this crap.

'Mrs. Hemamalini Shivagurunadan... Sorry, Mrs. Hemamalini…'

'Let's get a divorce.'

'I'll hire a skilled lawyer to deal with this case.'

'Why don't you do the same?'

'I humbly ask that you leave this to someone else.'

Look.

This! He's trying to say that I'm a useless lawyer.

This hurts me the most.

From now on, I’ll make sure Shivaguru never sleeps peacefully.

Mark my words! I will do it. - It's a table.

I have to.

Yes, baby.

Never thought Dad would do such a thing.

Forget about that. Will you get us married, Mom?

Huh? - That won't happen, Archana.

Because, even she hates me.

Karthi, the moment you realized what you did

I forgave you right away.

Yes, Karthi. - Mom, our wedding…?

I'll get that done.

I’ll make it happen.

A grand and lavish wedding for you both at the registry office!

At the register office?

A grand wedding? - That's right.

Lavish one? - You heard me!

Thanks a lot, Aunty. - God bless.

But your father is a headache.

Can I borrow this balm? - Mom?

'Where are you?' - At sister's place.

'I don't see anybody.' - Everybody's here. Look!

'Hey!'

'You managed to bring them all together? Awesome, son!'

'How did that happen?'

'You never told me this good news!'

I brought them all together,

but not at the collector's place, but at our home.

'What about the Collector?'

He'll be here soon, Mom. I think his house feels a bit jinxed.

He’ll come after doing a puja.

'What do you mean?'

'From that face, I see one thing clearly.'

'You will never patch things up with Dad.'

'Though the Collector's family had forgiven Karthi,'

'the Collector never did.'

'Karthi gave it one last go to make him like him.'

Hello, everyone.

Before I retire, my goal was to carry out

as many good deeds as possible

while serving as a personal advisor at the PMO.

And now, I've accomplished it.

This press meet is to share this exciting news with all of you.

A video of your generous act

in Nilgiri district has gone viral online.

Have you watched it?

You seem very eager. Why don't we watch it together?

Here you go. - Give it.

Careful with the mobile. Better return it!

'Despite being aware'

'that his life was in danger because of local groups,'

'Sivagurunadhan took the post of Nilgiri district Collector'

'and worked for the well-being of the community.'

'Particularly, his service to Pannaikadu village.'

'Let's watch all about it in this video.'

'The Pannaikadu village is situated at the heart of a dense forest.'

'The villagers solely rely on the forest to make a living.'

'Until recently, the villagers were living in constant terror.'

'It's due to a tiger lurking in the forest.'

'It'll invade the village'

'and strike at animals and children,'

'even during bright daylight!'

'Thanks to the electric fence 'installed by the Collector,'

'wild animals no longer enter the village.'

'Now, the villagers are living peacefully.'

'From schools and hospitals'

'to a ration shop,'

'everything has been established.'

'Banners for him hang all over the village,'

'and people regard him as a savior'

'As a way to honor one such great man,'

'I humbly appeal to the Central Government,'

'on behalf of the Pannikaadu villagers,'

'to provide him with a position at the PMO.'

Collector Sir? Isn’t that your daughter-in-law's brother speaking?

Sir, you filmed this video yourself,

and with Karthi's help, you made it go viral.

You got this promotion because of Karthi.

Am I right? - Your good name, sir?

Rocket Ranganathan. You know me!

No. I don't.

But, choose your words wisely, Rocket Ranganathan.

Your assumption that I owe my promotion to a random individual

is a black mark in my entire service and I strongly condemn this.

And one more thing, I'm in no way related to that guy.

Is that clear? - Alright, forget about it.

That's your family issue.

How should we refer to Karthi in the report?

Digital Marketing head? Or your proxy? Or the Collector's shadow?

Rubbish!

I've said it over and over! Yet, you won't stop.

God has placed me here to serve the community.

I've dedicated years to serving the people.

and if I owe my promotion to some random guy’s video, then forget it.

I don't want it!

Write whatever you want. Move! - Collector sir!

Collector sir! Is it confirmed?

Usually, I don't listen to Tamil songs. I thought you'd like this.

I'll turn it down if you don't.

Once the press meet got over, you requested me to drop you home.

I was slightly disappointed.

If you had ordered your son-in-law to drop you home,

I’d have been happier.

You are an IAS officer. You can have anybody drop you home.

If you wanted to come with me, there has to be a reason.

There should be something special.

Tell me, Uncle.

Why are you silent?

Are you fasting? - Nope, nothing.

Yes, Dad. - 'Where are you?'

I'm dropping Collector uncle home. On my way.

What is it? - 'That man is with you?'

'Let that man know that our family has no ties with them from now on.'

'Throw that man out.' - Mom! Mom!

He's my future father-in-law. Be respectful.

Plus, it's on speaker.

'Oh, really?'

'Very well, then.'

'Tell that man to pay attention to what I have to say.'

'Archana, his daughter, stopped by saying'

'she wanted to talk about the wedding.'

'Do you know what she had to say?'

"The female doctor who allegedly poisoned the mango juice

of the groom's parents she disliked is now out on bail."

will be the breaking news because…

My father is the Collector and my mother is a Lawyer.

'Even after all those years of friendship,'

'she spoke to me with such arrogance.'

'You better reject her. Just end things with her.'

Vinay!

Vinay!

Vinay!

I'm sorry. Really sorry.

Archana is just a kid. She acted immaturely.

Don't take it seriously. - Uncle!

Your daughter said she'd poison my entire family.

And you think I should just brush that off?

Funny how you kicked Anandhi out saying she wasn't raised properly.

You didn't raise her well.

That shows in her behavior. - Hey! Hey!

Just because she acted out of anger,

you're judging my parenting? How dare you!

If I were a Collector now... - You're not a Collector?

I'm talking to you. Are you not the Collector?

'Mr. Sivagurunadhar, if you're making any official decisions,'

'you should have informed the PMO as per protocol.'

'How can you turn down the promotion at a press meet?'

'You could've sent us an email.'

Alright, I’ll inform the PMO that

I’m turning down the promotion right away.

'Not necessary.' - Why?

'We have already demoted you and transferred you to Nagaland.'

'You'll get the confirmation soon.' - What?

'Yes. All the best.' - What the...

Sir! Hang on!

If that's the case, I'll hand you my VRS.

I'm resigning from my position right now.

Thank you very much, sir.

I’ve just quit my job.

So, you're not a Collector anymore.

So, you're not a Collector anymore?

Without knowing this, I was…

Jobless and still acting like you’re in charge, huh?

Amazing! Zero reception.

"Strut that regal walk And take your seat on the throne"

"Go further. Cheetah will welcome you!"

Hello, ex-Collector!

Not a Collector anymore?

Hey! Vinay! Vinay!

Brother! Hey! Hey!

Hello? Hello! Please, hello!

Bloody!

I shared that video, hoping it would benefit you in some way.

I was thrilled when I heard about your promotion.

But, I didn’t expect that to happen at the press meet.

I kept dropping by your house only to apologize to you.

From now on, you'll never face any problem because of me.

Because I'm leaving town.

Please forgive Anandhi, your son and your grandkids.

Please, Uncle.

Hey! Hey!

Quit the act! Just stop the drama!

Who the hell are you?

What did I ever do to you?

You destroyed one happy family.

You took away my daughter-in-law.

And gradually, you took everyone from me!

You're still not done? Tell me!

You want me to die?

What kind of a person are you?

Get lost. - Uncle!

Hey! Hey! Who the hell are you people.

Let go! Let go of me! - Hey! Hey!

Leave me!

My father truly wishes for this family to live happily

just like you all did before I came into your house.

I haven’t done any of the things my dad wished for.

But I want to make this happen.

Please forgive Anandhi and your son, Uncle.

If you've changed your mind, we can leave together.

If not, you can take the bike and go ahead.

'Karthi has entirely given up on the possibility'

'of mending things with his dad.'

'He went to Chennai' 'to see him and to just be near him.'

Hey, Karthi!

How are you, son?

I'll accept it.

The son that you've always wanted…

I've never been that.

But, I've always been 'your son'

Now, you've even asked me not to call you dad.

Would you say this if I were your biological son, Dad?

Hey, Karthi.

Forgive me.

I shouldn't have said that to you in any situation.

My anger brought out the worst in me.

Let me tell you right now!

You'll always be my son.

Dad!

Karthi!

I was the one…

who ruined Anandhi's life. Right?

I failed.

Who said you failed?

You won!

My son won.

I'm sorry, Kumarasamy.

I spoke ill about you.

This society has… many problems.

After witnessing all the evils,

our minds become…

used to them.

But when someone like your son, from this very society...

calls me out for my mistakes,

pointing what I did wrong in a straight forward way…

I'm unable to accept it out of anger and irritation.

Because…

we're conditioned like that.

In whatever your son said,

about the right and wrong.

To understand that,

I lacked maturity.

It took me…

these many days to get that.

Forgive me.

Your daughter… No.

My daughter-in-law…

has been raised so well by you both!

And your son…

has been raised just as well.

If you folks agree…

I'd be happy for my daughter to marry your son!

Please!

I'm as elated as you!

Dad, I'll change. I'll become the son you've always wanted.

No, Son. You shouldn't change.

Stay just the way you are.

Oh my god!

Look at this, son.

Apparently, while our Association President was out for a walk,

the ceiling collapsed on him!

My son predicted this.

But no one listened.

Let's hope they learn their lesson this time.

Am I right, Karthi? - Daddy!

Keshav…

get out of here!

What are you saying?

He's god-sent!

Let him bless the couple!

Please, come. - Bless?

What makes him eligible?

Dad…

He left because you hit him.

Please. Keshav!

Aravind… It's none of your business. Okay?

Dad!

Why are you stuck in the past and doing this? Let him come!

Keshav, come! - Archana!

Don’t force me to react.

I'm telling you, do you not understand?

Get out of here right now!

Keshav, wait a minute.

Uncle, I don't understand.

What's going on between you and Keshav? Let us know.

Tell us, Dad.

Tell us. Tell us. - Tell us, Dad. Tell us Grandpa!

'That day, after I returned from talking with Karthik...'

'you assumed some group had taken me.'

'But in reality, I was kidnapped by...'

You didn’t think I’d be the one to kidnap you, did you?

Blinded by your power and wealth...

you hit me for a mistake that I had nothing to do with,

in front of your entire family!

I lost my sleep from that moment.

Look!

An injured lion's breath…

is scarier than its roar.

Take this.

Oh! Him?

If you reveal what happened here, the shame will be on you.

Shame. Shame. Puppy shame!

Uncle, hitting someone who can't hit back is oppression.

Someday, that will come back to you, fair and square!

Please, for my sake, forgive Keshav.

I'm extremely sorry, from the bottom of my heart.

For the past 25 years,

I trusted this guy to always do the right thing.

But out of ego,

he did something terrible to me.

But…

For a year…

A guy I believed could only do wrong,

saved my life with no ego,

and did the right thing!

From now on, my son-in-law is my everything.

Keshav… - Sir!

It's alright, Sir. - Come here, you!

Sir. - You're watching like an owl!

Sir. Oh!

God must be crazy!

At last, all the problems are solved, right?

Hey Karthik!

You're behind all the problems!

How do you even manage him?

People with many brothers are all happy,

but with just one brother, the struggles I face!

Oh god! I can't.

That's my sister!
