Look up. Yeah.
Lack of sleep is a serious problem.
Lack of sleep could make you faint like yesterday. Be careful.
How can he sleep, sir?
Even a nail clipper's noise is enough to wake him up!
Well, sir...
Can I try having two or three pills each day?
Well... How did you faint, you said?
As I got tired.
Hari, I give you medicines to take them the way I ask you to!
My wedding's due next month! Don't do such things and get it cancelled!
Got it? - Yes, got it.
Aren't you trying the relaxation techniques I suggested?
Yes. I do, sir.
So, take the medicines the way I ask you to.
Okay? - Okay, sir.
It's Christmas, what are your plans?
Well, it's Christmas... So...
Huh?
Gotta meet someone, sir.
Okay. Fine.
Happy Christmas. - Happy Christmas, sir.
See you.
"Bells of glee jingled in the church"
"The folks arose in delight"
"By hanging stars, adorning decors,"
Straight to the church.
I'm not coming to the church. You go.
I feel less confident when I'm alone!
"Bells of glee jingled in the church"
Hey, Appappan. Hold this.
"The folks arose in delight"
"By hanging stars, adorning decors,"
"Lighting illuminations"
Hey, watch out for cobras amidst the pineapples!
I told you for your safety. Don't get scared!
I got scared!
What? - Nothing! Go ahead!
"A bright star appeared in the sky afar"
Hey, let's go!
HAPPY CHRISTMAS!
Enough! Let's go!
Hey, pluck it! - Okay!
Hey! Catch!
The one on the top! On that branch!
Hello? Are you ready, Sini?
I'm ready already! Tell me your decision!
Well, Hari has gone somewhere!
Said something like the labour of Manu's cow!
Delivery of a cow?
Manu just came and took him! - I see!
I don't think he'll be back tonight.
Shall we head to the church, then? - Yeah, okay!
Let me call Kannan. Will call you back.
Can you please make it quick?
Yeah.
Hey! Your mom is scolding someone! Don't you hear it?
Get down, you! Hey, losers! Spare at least one!
Oh, no! My petromax lamp! - Get it later!
They didn't spare even one!
Good Lord! They didn't spare even one fruit!
Mariyamma aunty, accept this package.
He was crawling in front of my shop!
Careful! Handle with care, buddy. It's a fragile piece!
Louis uncle, Benny asked you to freshen up and go to church.
[Singing a song]
His feet seem to be working fine!
Watch out! The pineapple is gone!
Oh, no! He lost the pineapple!
We picked it with great struggle, escaping from even a cobra!
Who? - Febin bro!
"I asked you to meet me for a genuine reason."
"Things need to be more transparent."
"Jingle bells are ringing,"
"Let's talk. Come to the church."
She's asking you to go to the church. - For what?
Well...
After reading this,
did you feel that Diji Paul loves you?
Yes. I felt so.
You would.
I too felt so.
Do you think Diji Paul is genuine?
I have no clue!
She doesn't pay attention to me since quite a long time.
That's what I said.
Anyway, she invited you,
just go there once.
Yeah...
Hey... What are they discussing? I feel so annoyed!
I don't know!
Do you want me to ask them?
What would you ask? They're being secretive and all...
I'm going to church.
We have an hour. Sit here and plan.
Let me go and eat pineapples. Okay?
He's coming back after their serious discussion!
Let me ask him.
Manu bro.
I know that there are lots of secrets
and stuff between you and Hari bro.
I'm not asking you that. I won't ask you, too!
But, that's not the case with Febin bro.
He's quite disappointed because you hide things from him!
Hey, I...
What I'm trying to say is
don't disappoint those who want to know secrets. Please!
Got it?
You didn't feel bad, right? - No.
Have pineapple, then.
See you.
Febin bro... Leave to the church.
Hey, Kannan. We're on the way to the church.
Where have you reached? Are you on your bike?
Hey, I'm starting.
What? Aren't you coming, then?
I've started already! - Hey!
You got me all dressed up for the midnight mass, like in movies!
If you're not interested to meet,
say so. I've already reached halfway!
But I am interested!
Isn't that why I made this plan?
Such a wonderful plan! Stay there!
Shall I suggest another plan?
What? - Let me come in the tipper lorry.
Shall we go for a night ride?
So, you're not coming today!
No! I'm coming! Hang up now!
Ugh!
This damn thing's not getting started!
"A bright star appeared in the sky afar"
"Stars twinkled and sang his praises"
"A bright star appeared in the sky afar"
"Stars twinkled and sang his praises"
Benny? - Yeah!
Where should I place this?
Place it at the altar, sister!
Hello. Diji?
"The cedars bloomed, It's by the grace of the son of Mary"
Where are you?
Hey!
Come near the stairs behind the church.
Alright.
Hey, why's that guy with the crown looking so fiercely?
Not just him. The other guy over there...
Excuse me!
Yes?!
Please give me a way.
Jesus. Please save us.
Queen of arrogance!
I forgot what I was about to say!
Know something about Diji Paul? - Yeah?
She's madly in love with Hari!
She has even proposed to him! - Huh?
Yeah!
Good heavens!
How do you know this? - Hari told me.
He shares everything with me.
Listen to this, now. - Yeah?
For the last two and a half years or so,
She's been following Hari so badly!
But he doesn't pay attention to her!
But, how could that be?!
How long has it been, since you proposed to me, Hari?
Must be around two and a half years.
Well... Do you have feelings for me even now?
Y... Yeah!
Why do you... ask so?
No...
You had a romantic affair in between, right?
That wasn't a quite serious one.
Means?
Means...
I was serious about it,
but she wasn't quite serious.
I see...
If you won't get upset, shall I tell you something?
Yeah. Tell me.
When you were in a relationship with that girl,
I too was in an affair.
Those... are things of the past, right?
Just let it go!
Are you... upset?
No! Not at all!
No! You got upset!
I've already left it behind.
I don't know if it's because of your strong feelings toward me,
Now,
I too...
feel something towards you.
I wanted to meet you
to tell you this.
Okay?
Yeah...
Okay.
"Bells of glee jingled in the church"
"The folks arose in delight"
Maryam!
Look! We are blessed with a baby!
You added this dialogue yourself?
You know my feelings, right?
Hands off me!
I am Joseph, the father!
Bug off!
Hey, Sini!
Come here once!
Hey, Sini!
Get up, Veena. How long will you sleep?
Get up, Sini!
Your mom is screaming from there.
The way you acted last night, I felt that you won't get up today!
The sun should hit their asses for them to get up!
Hey, it's been quite some time. What's your decision?
Yeah! The last stork too is gone!
It would've been okay if she said 'I love you' directly.
But, she said it in a twisted way.
That's why I'm confused.
Just think about it.
She doesn't know Malayalam properly.
And you don't know anything else other than Malayalam.
What? - No, what I mean is...
Not that way.
You can fall in love.
But don't get serious.
Err... Sorry!
Diji! - Love her, but don't get serious!
Hello? - Hey! Where are you?
I'm at the paddy field.
What are you up to?
We got an airgun. Just playing with it.
I see...
Hey, do you have any sort of confusion?
No! What confusion? Nothing of that sort!
Okay.
Check Whatsapp. I've sent you something.
Don't hang up.
Hari! What's up? - Nothing!
Ugh! He's avoiding Manu and keeping new secrets!
Is this gun still alive? You took it from me ages ago!
It's not working. Is it faulty?
Hey. Hello?
I broke out laughing, seeing this!
Look at the way you stand in it!
It's nice! Hey, listen...
My friends are here. Let me just...
Yeah, okay! Call me when you're free.
Alright. - Okay.
Okay.
Why do you put so much pressure? No need for that.
Let's hit that mango.
Febin... Benny bro.
We're gonna hit that mango!
See. Bend it this way.
Give me that one.
Pellet! - Here.
We have only one pellet, Benny bro.
That would do!
Now watch!
Wow! Nailed it, Benny bro!
Pure luck!
Rocked it!
Where are you going?
Hey! Hey!
Why did he jump now?
Don't say that I cheated, once the game is over!
That's no fun!
Stand in the sun. Let your clothes dry.
They'll get dry in the wind.
Looks like a chicken jumped into the water!
Louis uncle! Mango!
Louis uncle.
You just wanna hit it, right? Just shoot it!
Shall I? - Of course!
Did it hit? - Yes!
Oh, God!
Hey! Get on the bikes!
Run, Sini! - Hari bro, money for a new tank?
Hey! Stop! - Come on, let's go!
Hey, would it be an issue if I shoot an eagle?
Only if you hit it, right? Just shoot!
Let me show you how I hit it!
Come on! - There it goes!
Did it hit? Huh?
It has hit somewhere. But...
See! The eagle is leaving joyfully, turning a somersault!
With a #Thanks hashtag on its wings!
Hey! What did the eagle drop?
Must be the airgun's pellet.
Really? - Febin bro!
Benny!
Hold this. It's quite heavy. - What would've fallen down?
You must've imagined it!
I'm sure it's not the pellet. It must be something else.
'POOVAN'
[Humming a tune]
Huh?
Mom!
Mariyamma!
Febin, don't you talk rubbish!
Hey! There's a chick on the terrace!
Veena!
We rescued a chick yesterday. It's that one.
Veena!
It's difficult to catch a native stork,
Come! Come! - Foreign ones are very easy!
What's it? Let go of my hand! - In the last season...
season...
She's gone?
I was roaming around here all this time, yet I didn't see it!
Where did this appear from, now?! Huh?
Mariyamma... It's our Christmas guest.
Jesus in the barn,
and this, in your house. That's the only difference.
What difference?
Even this looks kinda like a barn!
Lol! - Flop!
Had we got it yesterday, we could've kept it in the crib, right?
Come! Come!
What are you doing? Move aside!
Go! - Don't go yet!
From this angle, the chick looks exactly like Louis uncle.
You owe us a treat, Louis uncle!
My dear son! He's looking for reasons to booze!
Louis uncle, let's go!
Manu! Come!
Mom, is it male, or female?
It's a female one! Look at the way it walks!
Wow! Even its walk resembles Louis uncle's!
It's coming towards me. - Move. Don't step on it!
It won't hurt you, Hari.
God! Would he suck my foot in?!
Where's she gone?
Annamma...
Where did you go at night?
"Percussions brimming on the grain-feeding tender beak"
"The slender nibbling of litter sounds feel like cymbals"
"You dropped by my sight and invaded my heart"
"How did you conquer the realms of my soul, you dotty?!"
"O' cutie cupcake, cutie cupcake, cutie cupcake"
"My cutie cupcake, cutie cupcake, cutie cupcake"
"O' cutie cupcake, cutie cupcake, cutie cupcake"
"My cutie cupcake, cutie cupcake, cutie cupcake"
"Like a musical clock marking the hours,"
"Like an entitled landlord, there she grazes!"
"You dropped by my sight and invaded my heart"
"How did you conquer the realms of my soul, you dotty?!"
"O' cutie cupcake, cutie cupcake, cutie cupcake"
"My cutie cupcake, cutie cupcake, cutie cupcake"
What made you say 'Yes' to me all of a sudden?
Well... I felt that way, only now.
Hari! - Hey, Benny bro.
What are you doing here? - Just like that...
Yeah! Okay, okay!
It was 'Ghilli' that collected 50 crores first.
'Pokkiri' followed.
He went through a bad phase for a while, after that.
'Villu', 'Azhagiya Thamizh Magan', 'Sura'...
But he regained form after that. Got any doubts?
Yes. - Huh?
Yes!
"The petite feathers" "that bloom from within"
"turn into wings of desire"
"With non-stop clucking, She playfully sits"
"At the kitchen door With her mischiefs!"
"She joyfully meanders around the cotton tree"
"The tiny white fibers are tangles to her"
"Protect our daily bread from her pecks!"
"Be watchful about our cellar!"
"O' lord, the supreme ruler!"
"Percussions brimming on the grain-feeding tender beak"
"The slender nibbling of litter sounds feel like cymbals"
"You dropped by my sight and invaded my heart"
"How did you conquer the realms of my soul, you dotty?!"
"O' cutie cupcake, cutie cupcake, cutie cupcake"
"My cutie cupcake, cutie cupcake, cutie cupcake"
"O' cutie cupcake, cutie cupcake, cutie cupcake"
"My cutie cupcake, cutie cupcake, cutie cupcake"
Hey, tell me a decision!
What's so much to think about this?
I'm dumbstruck by the realization that you're in love!
Let me get back to my senses first.
Really? I wasn't so dumbstruck when I got to know about Diji Paul!
Diji Paul? I...
Yes. I know everything. Enough with your drama!
You said you act so high in front of her?!
What to do?
When a girl follows you around and pleads to you
for more than two years, I had to give in!
What's his name, you said?
Kannan. - Where should I meet him?
Anywhere is fine. You tell me the place!
Do you have his photo or something?
Look at you playing the tough brother!
Why do you need a photo?
Don't I have to see it? Just show me!
I will send you the photo on Whatsapp.
I need to ask him. - So, you don't have his photo?
You must have loads, on phone! - I had many!
Got deleted.
Shall I tell him to meet you tomorrow?
Yeah, tell him.
Aren't you going to the shop?
I've sent you something on Whatsapp, Hari. Have a look!
Really? What's it?
Hey, did he agree to meet you?
Yeah! She showed him my photo, too.
Was it your photo for real?
As it's Veena, can't be sure about that too.
You chose such a fantastic time slot anyway!
On top of a barren hill right under the hot sun!
And what the hell is that?
I don't think he's gonna come.
He's coming, Aatha!
Yeah, I saw him.
Should I go there? - Just be here.
Hey... See those guys over there?
Remember their faces.
There's something.
It's funny.
Come. - Okay.
Hari...
He is the guy I told you about.
Not me. It's him.
What the hell is this, then?
Just let it go!. You wouldn't have come if you knew it was him!
That's why...
Get on the bike, Veena.
Don't leave, Hari. - Behave yourself and get on the bike!
Aatha... Hey...
Hey! Nothing's holding me back from creating a scene here. Okay?
Behave yourself and get on the bike!
She tricked me by showing someone else's photo,
and when I went there, it was 'Aatha Kannan'!
He's just a petty sand miner!
Just enquire about him around here, mom.
Aatha Kannan!
He used to be a sand miner, but not anymore!
And, his name is not 'Aatha Kannan'.
Just Kannan. Kannan Athaniparambil.
What... what a pain?
Aatha Kannan is what people call him around here!
Aatha Kannan!
Would you have agreed if I showed you his photo?
Would you even come with me then?
Hey, I love him.
I know him for quite a long time.
I can't even imagine anybody else in my life other than him.
Please understand.
You wish! She wants us to get her married to a sand miner!
Aren't you hearing this, mom?
You sound like you're so well-employed!
All you got is a milkshake parlor, which nobody visits!
And, I told you that he's not a sand miner anymore.
He got a rickshaw, a tipper lorry, he earns well too.
Can you stop it, Veena? - I can't, mom!
You expect him to support your love affair?
So, what about your son eyeing Diji Paul?
Nobody's got a problem with that?
Diji Pau...
Don't you dare put up such acts!
Will you accept it if I ask you not to be with Diji Paul?
No, right?
Watch out, mom! He's into a Christian girl!
He'd want to marry her later. I won't agree then!
Really? I too wanna see if you'll marry him, then!
Ask your son to forget about Diji Paul!
Veena! It's been quite a long since I hit you! You'll make me do it!
Come here! Haven't you seen me growing my nails? It's for you!
As if mom will agree if you bring her
to mom's birthday and make them hug!
In your dreams!
This chick grew up in the blink of an eye!
"On behalf of Arogyamatha Family unit..."
Are you late today, Benny?
Yeah, a bit.
Well, Louis uncle. Is it a male one? A rooster?
I guess even it realized so, today only!
It has started this act since morning!
If you can wait for five minutes, you'll hear it crowing!
Really?!
Do we have to enroll this early for
the Kurishumoodu church visit, Benny?
If you enroll now, you can travel sitting.
Else, you'll have to stand till there!
No, we can't stand it! Louis has got Varicose veins!
What are you doing, girl? She'd have stamped the rooster to death!
Hey, what happened? - Nothing, Benny bro.
Hey, Veena!
Hey, it's not gonna work out!
Yeah... I heard the arguments!
You shouldn't have swapped the photo, right?
Convincing Hari won't be possible!
He's exactly like how our dad used to be!
Call Kannan once.
His job, family, status,
these are the matters you ought to highlight.
That's what I highlighted.
I told her his other downsides, too. I just don't like him.
Hey! Relax and think about it once.
Convince her with love, in a pleasant way.
But I don't feel pleasant, Benny bro!
Just try to act pleasant.
How? - Smile once.
Smile!
Yeah!
Smile like this and talk to her.
Got it? Huh?
Everything will be fine.
Okay?
Ugh!
Let me tell you something else.
I don't believe that being in love is a mistake.
If that's what she likes, just agree to her wish!
No! Can't do! - Never mind.
Never mind! Maintain that smile!
This place is loaded with flies! Ugh!
Please try to understand!
Things aren't like what you think. I'm unable to handle it!
Yeah, I understand...
You may take a decision.
You love your family more now, huh?
This was bound to happen.
Bro... She swapped your picture because I asked her to. So...
[Rooster crowing]
Sini! It's crowing!
Hey, Veena...
You Slept?
No.
No... You've slept.
Yeah, if you say so!
You got so disappointed, didn't you?
Hey...
That relationship won't work for you.
Are you listening to me?
Yeah. I am.
You think and,
make a decision tomorrow itself.
And...
your nails...
please cut them, okay?
Okay, then.
See you.
Oh, no! She's gone! - Wow. Everybody's here!
Okay. Okay. - She's gone!
Mythri! Kids of this generation are not what we think.
Mary sis...
I didn't expect her to take my sewing machine along!
If you're worried about my blouse,
you may give it a few days later too.
It's not just your blouse, Mary sis...
How will I stitch others' clothes as well, now?
What's the use of weeping now?
Will that washing machine come back?
Hey, it's not a washing machine. It's a sewing machine.
Yeah, whatever it be! Will it ever return?
Stop crying, Mythri!
Keep crying, then!
Sorry! - Get going!
God! How do I bear this?
She took my machine and eloped!
Hey, Benny bro. Hi Manoj sir.
Shouldn't the uncle be in-charge after the father, Prakashan?
Why don't they seem to get it?
That's why I said, it's a ship without a captain!
So many people have gathered! It was only a few when we left!
I don't know!
Hari's uncles, aunts, relatives, everybody's here!
None of them were invited, though!
And on top of that, 'Kudumbasree' members!
It's not my work machine that she took.
It's the new machine.
Did she take the machine only, or the stand too?
The full set! They took it in the tipper lorry!
Annamma! Will you elope, too?
Tea, aunty.
Only tea? No bananas for us?
It's not a marriage hall, but an elope-house! Gulp it up!
Aatha...
The whole village is here!
Even if your marriage happened the traditional way,
these many people wouldn't have attended it!
Hey, Aatha. - Yeah.
Come on. Come. - Just a sec.
Are you listening to me, Aatha? - Yeah tell me.
They're serving people tea and bananas!
Most of them seem happy! Hello?
Hello?
Come and sign there once! - Hey, I'll sign and call you back!
They hung this star for last Christmas.
Haven't even taken it off yet!
Son, the elope-house?
Yeah, this one. You may go in.
Who's that?
Where's my mom?
She's here. - I'm here. You sign, son.
That's the witness section! Don't sign on the wrong column!
Huh? - Yeah!
Don't ruin our Thalapathy's reputation! Sign!
Manu bro. They have one more bunch of bananas.
One more? No need! Stop serving it!
Really? - Yeah.
Yeah, bro. Bananas canceled.
The crowd was huge there, as big as a marriage function!
Sini told me when she called.
Mom is crying over the sewing machine, it seems!
Did you ask your friend if he saw Hari around?
Sudheer said he didn't see him there.
His friends were there, though.
What's it?
Come out if you dare, Aatha! Dare you elope with my naive sister?
Get lost, you! Dare you put up a show in my house?!
Dare you make a girl as young as your daughter elope with you?
Don't you act all chaste now!
Come inside, Hari. Have a seat.
Go ask your family to have your seat!
Don't create a scene here, Hari. You go now.
Do you want me to go now? See what our home has become!
Your mom is crying non-stop!
Hey Aatha! Have you got any shame?
To steal the sewing machine from my home!
Go check out how people usually elope!
They steal all the money and gold while eloping!
And you're crying over an old sewing machine?
An old sewing machine? We bought it just 3 months ago!
They don't give a damn bout you! The sewing machine is their concern!
Of course! Stealing our property and... - Get out, you!
Aatha, thief! - Get out!
Come, Hari! - Benny bro!
It's my sister and our sewing machine we lost!
How dare he make a scene here?
Leave! - Come!
I'll buy you a sewing machine. Let me see if we can get a used one.
Her decision to leave wasn't good, I agree.
But you didn't have to say that he's as old as her father!
She must've felt so desolated.
If he's as old as her father, what's wrong with saying it?
But he isn't that old! - He is!
Hey, don't get too stressed out.
Do as I say.
Diji! - Yeah, coming.
Do as I say.
Go and be with your friends for some time.
Okay? Let me send you a 'sleep music' to help you sleep.
Okay?

Do something, bro.
Don't you too wish to see Veena and her family together again?
Yeah, I do...
Bro... Veena's family has immense trust in you.
You can influence them, too.
So, you just go to Mythri aunty,
say "Please bring Veena here",
and she will follow it.
That's what I am trying to say!
It's the only thing she won't follow!
Please see if there are any other way, bro!
If you can convince her by lying, that too would do!
What lie?
How about Veena cried so hard that she caught 'pneumonia'?
No! That won't work!
Asthma? - No!
Dengue fever?
Such things ain't gonna work out.
Think about something, then.
After all, it's for a good cause, ain't it?
What if somebody comes to know?
As if I'm gonna post it as a story on Instagram!
Apart from you, me, and Veena,
not another soul will come to know about this. I swear.
Let me see.
Alright, then.
I'll think about it. You carry on.
Okay, bro. - Alright.
Sis. We've learned that step.
Alright, I'll be back in a moment.
Get back, girl.
Annamma, how can you keep crowing all the time?
Isn't there a time for everything?
A hen is here for the last two months!
Have you ever paid heed to it?
Lord!
Mythri aunty!
Hey, Benny! - Please sit.
Are you busy? - Yeah, gotta stitch a few clothes!
I see.
Why, Benny? Do you need to stitch a blouse?
Oh! No!
The thing is... - Yeah?
I met Veena today.
I mean, no, I didn't see her!
Talked to her over the phone.
Did she say anything?
She did.
Mythri aunty... Veena is...
Pregnant! - Huh?
By God, I swear!
Aunty...
She was quite sad, Mythri aunty.
Shouldn't you be the one looking after her in this condition?
It's not like I don't wish to, Benny.
He just won't let me go there!
Where is he? Let me have a word with him.
I believe that y'all like me well.
Why do you say so, Benny bro?
That's how it's always been.
Not just that.
I influence your family greatly, I guess.
What do you say, Mythri aunty?
Yeah, Benny.
Alright. Then do as I say.
All of us are,
going to Veena's house tomorrow.
But, Benny bro...
When I went there the other day,
I had broken his lorry's headlight with a rock.
But that was out of love, ain't it?
Out of love?
Out of the sole thing, love!
You gotta make them believe so!
My dear Hari! All these problems will be
resolved if y'all just have an open talk.
And I'm telling you this because of Veena's condition.
So, let's all go there tomorrow itself,
and sort out the issues.
Okay. - Okay?
Okay.
If you say so, it must be right in some way.
Let's go.
Yeah, let's go. - Yeah!
Where's my bag? - Here.
Hey, Sini! - Yeah?
We are visiting Veena tomorrow.
Everything's been sorted out.
Really?
That's quite a surprise!
Well done, Hari bro!
Okay!
Maintain the smile!
Hey, Hari...
Let's not ask her about the pregnancy.
They'll think that we decided to patch up after hearing the news.
Let them tell us if they want.
I was about to tell you the same.
Anyway, the families patching up over a pregnancy,
it's such an old-fashioned way!
Anyway, do you need a pregnancy to patch up with her?
Lolz!
Yeah! Right!
So, how many months has it been?
April! - Oh, yeah!
April...
May...
June...
Wouldn't it start raining by the mid of June, son?
Will you get enough work then?
He will. Won't you?
Yeah.
Can I get some water, please? Feeling so thirsty.
Sini! Veena! Some water. - Yeah, will get it.
I feel quite queasy!
It's because of the hot climate. - Yeah...
Hey, do I look phony?
No! Why phony?
Nothing of that sort.
Shall I tell the truth to mom, at least?
Stop it, you!
Mom's not gonna tell anybody!
It's better to cremate me alive, then!
Let it go like this for some days.
It's been quite some time!
What are you both doing here?
Just chitchatting. - That's alright. Come, dear.
Yeah. - Come.
No need to buy a new headlight.
I'll let you know. Okay? Alright.
Hey, Hari. - Yes?
Aren't you gonna invite your brother-in-law to our home?
I can't!
What's wrong with you?
I can't! - This is bad!
Mythri aunty... Let me talk to him.
Move aside a bit, Hari.
Yeah. Let me sit.
Things aren't like before. Veena is pregnant.
Don't you believe me?
Yes, bro. - Okay.
What I'm trying to tell you is, you are going to be an uncle.
It's your nibling's dad whom you gotta invite to your home!
Not some random outsider!
Look at this house and its surroundings.
So neat and clean, ain't it?
He's such a disciplined person.
Discipline is the very thing you lack, Hari!
It's another person who'd bring changes to one's life!
I'm telling you,
this person will bring lots of positive changes to your life.
Go and invite your brother-in-law!
Go!
Go ahead, dear!
Go!
brother-in-law...
Hey!
Please visit our house with her, soon.
Sure! We will come!
We shall go, right? - Yes!
Veena. Come, okay?
The path to your home is too small, right? Shall I park here?
This is Mariyamma's rooster.
Oh, I see!
The rooster isn't moving, Sudheer!
This is the rooster's home!
You bring the car there and complain that it's not moving?
You both get down.
Call me when it's time to leave. - Okay!
This photo is from Chennai when he met Vijay.
Do you know how well-planned he is, about everything?
Things aren't the way we think.
I realized it after becoming a part of that family.
He's an ardent Vijay fan, that's the only downside.
Back then, at the festival ground,
he had a quarrel with Hari, over Vijay!
Drink up this milk! Drink it!
Pregnant women ought to drink lots of milk!
What the...!
There's no road!
That's the problem.
This is the path we usually use.
Every home must have,
a road wide enough for at least a tipper lorry, right?
Ask them if they can give the land for a road?
That would be quite expensive, right?
Bro! Mud! Don't step on it!
Buy a portion of their plot at the front,
expand our road for the tipper lorry to enter,
move this border over there, close to this curved plot,
and give them this area of the plot along with some money,
won't we have a road, then?
Didn't get me, right? Come.
Buy this plot from them,
expand this road,
and give this plot to them.
Tidy up the road and apply 'M sand'.
It's just a matter of two days. What say, Hari?
Yeah, We're okay with it.
Hey, the chair is a bit shaky.
Please sit on the other one.
It's alright.
It's alright...
Hey, Annamma.
What? Annamma?
Oops!
I mean, Mariyamma! - Oh! Mariyamma!
What should I tell them about the road?
Just give them!
They say they need it as wide as to accommodate a tipper lorry.
Just a small space is enough for that, right?
Right? - Yeah...
We'll have to move the chicken shed.
Stop worrying about the chicken shed!
Will they pay us anything?
No! Let's just give it away for free!
We could deposit the money in the bank.
By the time of her marriage, we would need something, right?
As if the good old father is so
concerned about the daughter's future!
Sini! Ask Hari to do the necessary things.
Mention the payment, too.
And, until Father Jose comes and
fixes the spot for a new chicken shed,
I won't give away my land!
That'd do!
So true!
Take this! - Yeah. Keep it.
Thalapathy rocks!
Thalapathy saved us!
Careful, dear. Slowly.
We shall dig the well here. - Huh?
I mean, the chicken shed.
I was at a well digging yesterday. So, things got mixed up.
Keep them here, boys.
Right here. Here. - Don't trip down!
You've got a waker right at your window, Hari!
It's such a pleasant thing to wake up to the crowing.
That sound!
Look at the way changes are coming?!
Benny bro...
I've said so much bad about him!
Now, it's like I am depending on him.
Oh! Do you feel that way?
Then, you too bring changes in his life!
Understand his needs and help him accordingly!
Bro, let me do it for you. - No, it's fine!
It's fine!
What are you doing tomorrow night? Are you free?
I'm free. Nothing much to do.
I need a favor.
What help do you need? Tell me, bro!
My friends are kinda busy tomorrow. - I see...
Tell me, bro.
A few loads of sand are parked somewhere.
Gotta unload them at another place.
Hari bro. I'm taking this one.
Our old man has a habit of boozing at dawn.
Let me mix some water and keep it.
Yeah, sure. - Bye, then.
Bro...
Isn't this somewhat risky?
What risk? Nothing of that sort!
Just escort the lorry and make sure there are no cops around.
It's just a night's task. You'll get 2000 Rupees.
But you said you don't do sand business anymore?
Oh, I don't do it anymore!
Only once in a blue moon!
I sometimes do it when my friends need help.
Not always. Only once in a blue moon!
Hey, we'll get 2000 Rupees, right? Let's go for it.
We don't earn even a penny from our milk-shake parlor, anyway.
It's fine. Think about it and let me know.
Will see, bro. Will see...
Think about it.
Bro, I have a doubt.
When you came to sneak the sewing machine,
where did you park your tipper lorry?
Stop it, Hari! That's too risky!
If you need money, let me know! I'll give you!
Money?
My brother-in-law is calling me!
Shouldn't I go, then?
You know how much he loves me?!
Oh! So, you don't value my love, Hari?
I'm asking you not to go because I love you!
I can't say no to him now!
I already told him that I'd come.
You're annoyed about me taking a decision without asking you, right?
You don't care if I go with him or not, right?
Yeah! Alright then!
Go unload the sand, or unlock the bank! Whatever!
Idiot!
"The number you're trying to reach is currently switched off."
Hello, Hari. What's up? Have you made a decision?
Yeah, bro. I've started from here.
Won't you reach soon? - Of course. I'll be there soon.
Alright, okay. - Alright, bro.
Sudheer bro... The cops... are not around!
There are no cops around, it seems!
[Rooster crowing]
[Crowing intensifies]
For whose pleasure is it crowing at this hour?
What kind of a rooster is this?!
Such a characterless one!
Crowing in the morning,
crowing in the afternoon,
crowing in the evening,
crowing at night!
Huh! Why do you crow so much?!
Hey! Police! Police!
Call Hari and tell him!
Hey, Diji... I... - [Crowing]
Hey, I... - [Crowing]
Mom. How many roosters are there around our house?
Around here...
Saraswathy's one,
Jaya's one, and Rosy's one, too.
How about Mariyamma aunty's one? - Yeah, that too!
Can you please tell her to shift
the chicken shed away from my window?
What happened, son?
It's crowing throughout the night, I can't even sleep!
Once it starts, other roosters from around here also do the same!
I can't stand it!
Please convince them somehow to move it!
Oh no, son! How do I tell this to Mariyamma?
The Father roamed all around their place and decided on that spot.
He said that's the only good spot.
Isn't that why Mariyamma gave us the plot for the road?
Don't pay much heed to it!
I'm going to Veena's place. You have lunch when it's time.
Let me try to catch a bus.
Else, I'll have to hire an auto rickshaw!
Ouch!
Drink this, Veena.
No, mom! I don't want it! - Drink it!
Mom...
Shall I tell you something?
I'm not pregnant in any manner!
Then?
I had to cook up such a lie in a particular situation!
Don't let Hari know about this at any cost!
Please!
Please, mom!
Hey, Hari.
Hari...
Get up once!
What's it, mom?
I wanted to tell you something.
She asked me not to tell you this.
But I can't help sharing it with you!
What's the matter?
I've called Benny over.
Let Benny come first.
I'll tell you then.
What's up, Mythri aunty?
Listen... - Yeah?
I wanted to discuss something with you.
Since...
Hari also needs to be aware of this,
I thought of asking it in front of Hari.
Have you ever lied to me, Benny?
N... No.
Then, what about Veena's pregnancy? Wasn't it a lie?
Hey, Hari.
If Benny lied to us,
there must be a reason behind it.
Perhaps...
it's because he wanted to see us and Veena together again.
Well, aunty...
Whatever it be, it's a lie, you mean to say??
I too don't like it when people lie!
Everybody in our family admires you.
You have the freedom to enter this house at any time!
Right, Hari?
But, had it been anybody else who lied to me like this,
we wouldn't have believed it, Benny!
You are a honest guy.
So, what's the big deal?
We got our Veena back, right?
Aunty... I lied to you that day...
Because you care for us, right?
We got it, Benny!
But, don't make this a habit, Benny!
Don't cook up such stories!
"Benny bro. Apart from you, me, and Veena,"
"not another soul will come to know about this. I swear."
Hari, don't you go and ask this to Kannan in a hurry.
He might not be aware even of this!
Got it?
Gotta have money, right? That's what I've been telling you!
Yeah.
Hey!
What happened? What's wrong?
Bro...
Someone whom we care for, the most...
if they lie to us for something too trivial,
how do people survive such shocks,
I wonder!
As it was for a noble cause, it's fine.
We just need to accept it.
I used to have...
lots of misconceptions about you back then.
But it's all cleared, and things are going so well now!
But, just a second is enough...
for things to take a turn!
Be careful about such things, bro.
I'm leaving, bro.
Okay, bye. - Okay.
Sudheer bro. Okay!
Well...
Your character changes so often, isn't that what he said?
Huh?
It means, you lack character!
When did he say so? - Didn't he leave, saying the same?
What's wrong?
What do you think about me?
You're a really nice person.
Have you ever felt that I'm a characterless person?
No...
But, your brother felt so, today.
What I mean is, he conveyed it without saying it explicitly.
Had I known what he meant,
I could've had some peace of mind.
I wanna tell you something, Kannan.
What?
For our families to unite,
I had lied about something.
Told them that I'm pregnant.
Hari must've gotten to know about it.
That must be the reason. Sorry.
Kannan...
In that case, he didn't scold me enough, I feel!
Push it harder!
Hey. Park the boat closer.
Towards here. - Any idea who she is?
It's my first time seeing a dead body in a river.
And I get to see it daily!
Does sand mining happen here?
No, sir. Nothing of that sort.
Sand mining does happen here.
No, sir! - I'm wondering which team is doing it!
Oh, no! The tire is spinning like a wheel!
The car doesn't look like climbing up, sir!
Can't you try again? - No, sir. It won't happen!
Then, make arrangements to bring the body here.
Okay? - Okay, sir.
Follow up on further procedures.
Just push the accelerator well, sir! It'll climb up easily!
Really? A bike could climb up.
But not a traveler.
Bug off, you! Even tipper lorries do climb up here!
They're talking about tipper lorries, sir!
Yeah. I'm listening. Hey...
Bring him here, without making him feel suspicious.
We'll see, then.
"Hey, the tipper lorries do climb up here!"
The sub-inspector is calling.
Calling whom? - You.
Me? - Yes.
What for? - I don't know. He wants to meet you.
What could it be for?
Move aside, you!
Sir...
Move aside!
What happened, sir? - A coconut might fall on your head!
Move forward!
Do you have your brother-in-law's number?
Yes. I have.
Give it to me. - What's it for, sir?
Just give me the number!
Sudheer...
The jeep went that way, Aatha. Jump, now.
Careful! There could be snakes!
It's difficult to get your tipper lorry released.
I'll arrange the anticipatory bail by tomorrow.
Present yourself at court tomorrow.
Okay, sir. Sure.
Hey, Hari...
Sorry! Please forgive me! Sorry!
And, do you know where Sudheer unloaded the sand?
He unloaded it onto a dog house.
That dog died. It was a 'German Shepherd'.
A 'German Shepherd'? - Yeah.
The owner is looking for your friend.
Guy says he'll break his legs if he catches him!
Where are you, Kannan?
I've been calling you for a long time.
Hey, don't panic. I'll settle the
issue and return by tomorrow morning.
Kannan... - You go to sleep.
Go to sleep, dear.
SORRY!
Hey, I got to know something now.
It's Hari who gave the cops your number. Hari?
Didn't I tell you? He's got some grudge towards you!
He has told the cops about sand mining, in detail.
Him? No way! - No way? This gets me on my nerves!
Anyway, I'm done!
Let me try calling him.
Better switch off your phone!
Don't let the police track you down!
He must be sleeping peacefully now!
[Crowing and thunder intensifies]
Come out.
Come out, I said!
If you attack me, I'll finish you off!
Scram, you rooster!
Leave!
To hell with your crowing! Leave!
Leave!
Get lost!
Scram, you!
Oh my god!!
Benny, are you hurt? - No!
Shall we go to the hospital? - No need.
Are you tensed? - Nothing, mom!
Mariyamma, you better lock up your rooster!
Nothing happened to my boy, luckily!
I saw it from there.
I didn't expect it to jump across!
What happened, Mary? - What to say, my dear.
Their rooster was missing since last night.
Suddenly it came from nowhere and jumped in front of my son's bike.
Where are you going?
To visit Veena. - Ok, carry on.
Look at the way that rooster is staring!
Last week, he jumped in front of Sannan's bike.
Sannan's leg got fractured. He would have died then.
This has become a killer now! - Mom, please stop.
Nothing happened, right?
He usually doesn't do these things. I don't know what happened.
Then how did Louis's hand got broken?
That I tipped down by mistake. - Stop.
Mariyamma aunt, take the rooster and go home. Everybody leave, please.
Is your hand broken? - No, mom. Leave.
Of all the bikes around, it jumps in front of my son's bike!
Dear Annamma, why did you jump in front of that bike?
Jesus. What happened to him?
He might be upset.
You scolded him for that hen not laying eggs, right?
He might be sad.
I am sure he is sad.
Sir, is there any way to get my vehicle back?
Leave it. You go home. I say don't waste your money.
You try your best, Sir. Anything that you can do.
I have not even completed half... - 'Aatha'
I have not even paid half of its EMI. I was still enjoying it.
Sir, what about the dog case? - What dog?
German Shepherd.
That is another case. This is different.
Sir...
Sir, shall I call you a taxi?
Sudheer. - Look, your brother-in-law is here.
Come.
Hey, come.
Brother, please. You called yesterday, right?
I didn't know what to say. That's why I didn't pick up the call.
Hari, you should leave. We know everything.
Don't dismiss me like that, Sudheer.
It was a mistake on my part. It was not intentional. I have proof.
Tipper is in custody.
I am not in a mood to hear your excuses.
Brother, this is today's newspaper. See the date.
See the place. Manu, read the news.
"A middle-aged woman was found dead in the river. Chalakka,"
"Near Kunnukara Chalakka bund area, a woman was found dead"
Are they trying to pin this on us?
"Body was found near the river bund." - Enough.
When the Ambulance was not able to enter there,
unfortunately, I told them that even a tipper will enter there.
The dead dog was a superior breed, German Shepherd. Do you know that?
Sudheer bro. It was not intentional.
Brother, I know how important that tipper was to you.
I know you paid the downpayment for it by pawning your mom's chain.
Brother. Don't go.
Talk to 'Aatha'. - Kannan bro.
I know what I did was wrong.
Mom will buy you a new tipper even if she has to sell our land.
Sudheer, take the vehicle. - Where is the key?
Sudheer bro, here is the key.
I see!
'Aatha'! - I got it from there.
I don't believe that. - Brother.
Hear me out. - Sudheer
Tell him. - Move away. I'll finish you off!
That's why I am telling you.
We were planning to sell that land for her wedding.
That's fine.
Kannan won't accept it anyway.
We are happy to transfer that land's ownership in your name.
You just ask him when he comes.
Then buy a vehicle or whatever you need.
Veena.
Kannan has come. Let me see.
You knew I pawned my mom's chain to buy the vehicle?
So what? - Why?
Your brother was there at the court.
Did you send him? - I just told him where you are.
I have seen my vehicle lying at the police station.
Sorry. - Move!
That old hag and her son acted up too
much when I took the sewing machine.
He even broke my vehicle's head light!
Mom, When did you come? - Just reached.
I didn't notice!
I am upset. Don't think otherwise. - I can understand.
What happened?
Oops! Vijay's photo.
It slipped... by mistake...
Sorry. - No problem.
Right?
Hello Hari.
Hello, Hari. Where are you?
Where are you, Hari? I wanted to tell you some...
What is the confusion Benny bro? Are you ok?
Yeah. yes. - That is enough.
Benny bro. Hey.
Come. Let's go.
I am coming. - Ok.
Where are we going? - Drive. I will tell you.
What happened? You look upset.
Did you feel that? - I was just saying.
Stop there. On the side.
Here? - Yes, there.
Febin, come. I need to talk. This is the best place.
Medical shop? I am not coming. You go ahead.
Huh, not to the medical shop?
What? Jesus!! Is he going to the bar?
Benny bro, you drink in the bar?
Only when I am deeply hurt and heartbroken.
Do you believe I would lie? - Never.
Sorry, bros.
Even for a good cause, one should not lie.
There are only quite a few people who believe in that.
I am one of them.
Still, I had to lie.
To whom? - Hari's family.
What lie?
Tell me.
To solve their issue with Veena and unite them. I had to.
I am reluctant to say it.
I didn't know any of this.
He doesn't tell me anything, anyway.
We are not in sync like we used to be.
One more peg.
Make it two.
I don't have much knowledge about love. - Me too.
That doesn't mean I hadn't fallen in love before.
I did. In the fifth standard.
A girl in my class.
She has two kids now.
But she doesn't know this to this day.
I welcome you to a life without women. - No.
I loved another girl after that.
One more girl. - Who is that lucky girl?
Mariyamma aunty's daughter Sini.
Mariyamma's... She?
I am madly in love with her.
I can't control my feelings! - Hey, don't be upset.
Tell her. - I already did.
When?
At her college, 1.5 years back.
Benny bro. Why are you here?
I want to tell you something.
What is the issue, bro?
I'm madly, deeply in love with you. - What?
I want to marry you. - Then?
You are like a father to me. - Damn.
I have in my album a photo of you carrying me as a baby.
You must have stopped after that.
No. Again.
Sini. - Benny bro, it won't happen. Forget it.
What is your problem? - Love.
She is very much friends with me.
She doesn't show any hatred towards me.
She is very much caring. That is my doubt.
Two times our eyes met each other.
Is it?
You do one thing.
You present this before your parents and ask for marriage officially.
Wouldn't that be an issue? - What issue?
Louis uncle will faint of joy when he hears your proposal.
What about her?
Your eyes met each other for sure? - Twice.
Bro, she is in love with you.
Not that. She...
I lied to Hari's family only because she told me.
She said no one will know. Now everybody knows.
Maitri aunty asked it on my face with a smile.
About if I lied to her.
If she had scolded me I would have felt better.

for the winners of SSLC exam sponsored by Mr. Benny.
Give him a big round of claps.
Also, you see the decorations
That was also arranged under the guidance of Benny.
To keep the charm of Arogyamatha Family unit
People like him are necessary.
We will move on to the next program.
Where is Secretary?

Benny bro.
Hari keeps cutting my calls saying he is busy.
Can you please talk to him?
Ok, Diji - Ok, bro.
"Like a gushing wind touching the sea Dreams sail away"
"Stabbed with squabbles, The body quivers in pain"
My lord Jesus. Keep us protected. Amen.
Hari.
Bro, don't feel embarrassed or anything.
You go and see her. All the best.
Come, brother. We shall go. - Why are we going this way?
This way it is easier to reach her home.
Why are we going through backside When going for a good cause.
Like this way is easier that's all.
What easier? These things have some rules, right?
Do we have the legacy of going through the backside?
Uncle. - Yes.
Here.
Dad, what uncle says is also true.
We shouldn't go through backside When going for a function like this.
But if we go through the front side
People will say some things.
We will have to answer. - That is fair.
What is the way out?
Yeah. This is fair.
Where are they going in the car?
Are they fooling us by saying they will come to see the girl?
Dad, move your leg. - Ousepp, move the leg a bit.
Yes, now you start the vehicle. Put the indicator.
Yeah, start.
Everything's difficult in its own way.
That's why I came all the way here.
Uncle. We are here.
This is decent. Not entering through the backside like thieves.
Hello. - Hello.
Come, Benny.
When I saw you take the car I thought you were going on some tour.
No thrill in walking. So we took the car.
What is that crowd at Mariyamma's home?
Louis uncle started drinking again?
They're here with a marriage proposal for Sini.
Is it? Where are they from?
Hey, it is our Benny.
What?
Yes, Our own Benny.
Benny bro? - Yes.
Benny is in love with Sini for two years.
He has proposed to her also.
Two years? Oh my god!!
Cheater.
What is happening here?
You see. This is Benny and Sini.
Who would have thought of this at the time?
When Sini joined 1st standard, Benny's plus two results came.
Age differences could cause some issues?
10- 12 years difference is there.
We got these snacks from Kochi. Please have them.
Yeah, I had it.
Dear, don't drink Cola.
Let me die. - Don't do this, I said.
Please have it, bro. - A ladoo, maybe...
Hey, Keep him away.
Haven't I asked you to not come here? - I got scared!
I have not seen people raising a rooster inside the house.
Shall I tell the joke about rooster being in a circus.
Uncle. Please don't do that.
No need? That is fair.
You can go. - Not that.
Go and pee.
Bow down a bit. - Bow?
Oh! Just a feather? I thought... - Rooster's feather!
Sini!
I think it is fair to call the girl.
Sure.
Sini, dear.
Go.
Hey Benny, you can talk to her if you want.
Yes, speak. - Well...
Benny bro.
I am not saying about you stalking me to anyone
because I don't want your name to get blemished.
You better stop this.
Speak. - Son, speak to her.
I have told Benny what I want to say.
Isn't it, bro?
I think that's fair. Isn't it? - Yes. Yes.
Let me wear my sandals, Benny!
Uncle... - What?
You stay here, Uncle. I will take the car.
Uncle, get in.
Did she block me?
Benny bro, you seem happy.
Aren't you working today? - I'll just smoke and come!
I mean, I'll come soon!
Benny bro.
Diji, can you give these files to sir?
I am busy now. I will come to you when I'm free.
Excuse me, please. Please give me a way.
Benny bro.
Damn thing. Missed it.
I shouldn't have done it.
Hey, Benny bro.
Nayana, can I... - Sure.
Diji.
Can I explain my situation?
Sit, benny. - You sit. I am comfortable.
My condition is terrible.
I am not being myself for quite a few days now.
To tell you the truth, I am not in good touch with Hari.
It is my fault, actually.
But that's ok. I will talk to him.
What I am saying is,
If you stop talking once, starting again is very difficult.
Whatever problems between you can be sorted by talking in person.
You talk.
Go for a trip or something.
Don't take this to a situation where one person blocks the other one.
Diji, the idea for the trip is your decision only, right?
Yes. - Don't go because I told you.
I am already in a lot of trouble.
Think and decide for yourself.
Understand? Thanks.
This is Sarasu aunty's rooster.
Play the next one.
This is Jaya aunty's rooster.
What about the one that hinders your sleep?
Sir, play the next voice.
This is the one.
Hear his sound.
Sir, I already have a lot of problems.
Thinking about all that
I am sleeping very less.
Alongside that, he will start crowing early morning.
My ear will explode. I can't bear it.
If I lost sleep then, I can't sleep at all.
I've been suffering this way since so many days, sir!
Can you do something?
Hari, you have some other problems currently, right?
That can be solved if you decide, right?
Yes. - Then solve that problem first.
You will get a piece of mind then.
Then you will not feel this rooster as an issue.
This is not the rooster from the phone. It's from outside.
Here, someone is calling.
Sir, Diji. - Talk Talk.
No worries. All the best.
Ok, Sir. I shall. - Carry on. See you.
Hey. Tell me.
Where are you?
I am at Manu's house.
Hey, do you have any problem with me?
No.
Are you sincere with me?
Yeah. Yes.
Do you feel I am not sincere with you?
No. - Then why are you avoiding me?
I didn't avoid you. You avoided me.
Okay, let it go.
I am...
You didn't pick up my call at that time.
Sorry. I want to meet you.
If we do have any issues. It will be over if we talk personally.
I am going to the university tomorrow.
If you are free, can we go together?
Yes. We shall go.
If you are not free. I will go alone.
You stop talking like this first.
I told you I will come along.
Ok. Then shall we go on your bike?
I will wait for you at the bus stop around six in the morning.
Ok. Deal. - Should we make it seven?
You cut the call. - Ok. Then.
Okay. - Yeah.
Who was that?
Diji. - Why?
A small problem. - Huh?
She got serious? - No. I got serious.
When did you come? - A while ago.
I will be here for a few days.
What happened? - You should come to my house.
An award movie is playing there.
It's been days since he has talked to me properly.
There is a limit to showing ego.
I came here. Let him call me if he needs.
Mom, come here.
Mom. Can't you call him?
Kannan. Answer the phone.
Don't cry like this, Aatha. Answer the phone.
I am not crying. - Then what? Playing Kathakali?
Attend the call.
I also have dignity. I can't take it anymore.
Dignity?
You took away that women's tailoring machine,
her only source of income. You are talking about dignity?
That's not me. It's her. - But you accepted it, no?
Whatever it be. Just go there.
I won't go. Let her come.
Don't go. I am going.
Call Vijay fans to take you home.
Benny, he's a gem of a guy.
I have not seen someone like him around here.
She is not lucky, what to do.
She is not the unlucky one, we are. - We too.
She was crazy about Benny, what happened now?
It was Benny who used to carry Louis here
when he got dozed off in the streets.
Why are you silent? - Good fruit.
You hear me first. You can eat that later.
Mariyamma, get her two pieces of Jackfruit.
So we are not making chips?
Hey, can you wear that Pista green shirt I brought for you tomorrow?
Yeah, okay.
Don't cry, dear. - He is not even calling me.
At least he can come to see me, right?
He will call, dear. He might be busy.
His tipper is locked up. What busy?
It's just his ego.
Don't be sad. - I will!
What is this?
Hari, you heard? Benny got an award!
For telling lies to a maximum number of people.
Hari, don't go there. He is shining there.
Police are also there.

'MADAI PANCHAYAT BUS WAITING SHED'
Why is he sleeping here?
Go Away.
Won't allow my son to sleep. Go away.
God! I'm so screwed!
'Diji's messages: Where are you? I'm ready. Answer my calls.'
Don't make tea for me, Maitry aunty.
Hey. Hari.
I was busy for the last two weeks.
You would have thought where is Benny.
Right? - Yes. Yes.
The church is organizing a pilgrimage to Kurishumoodu hills.
I am co-ordinating it.
I am busy with that.
I want to talk to you, Hari. - Bro, I am a little busy now.
Can we talk later?
Okay? - Okay.
Bro.
I don't have any issues with you.
Not in Veena's issue or other things.
You talk with my mom. I am leaving.
Ok. Alright.
Mom...
Hey, Benny bro.
Benny, Veena is pregnant.
You're still hanging onto it? O, God...
I am serious. Would anyone lie about such things?
You need water? - No.
Hey, I got late.
You will feel silly if I say the reason. So I won't say. Sorry.
I told you to tell me if you have any reason not to go, right?
We have a communication gap
No, we don't have.
Yes, we have.
I put in a lot of effort from my side.
Nothing worked out.
Oh my god! how can I make her understand?
It's not just about today.
We will sort out this independently.
We shall take a gap.
Isn't that better?
You take your gap.
You were looking for some reason anyway, right?
What, Hari?
I understood. You are not serious.
Manu already told me this.
Is it?
Ok.
I deserve this for chasing him.
This sir is the person that secured
'Mrigamitra' award from the Panchayat.
You can ask him any doubts to him.
Sir, my rooster is in severe depression.
My hen is not laying eggs. I might have scolded him because of that.
I think that is why he is jumping in front of vehicles regularly.
Another interesting fact is that,
crowing will be relatively less loud in roosters showing these symptoms.
Am I right?
You are right sir. His crowing is not loud these days.
Is this the rooster that jumps in front of the vehicle?
Boy, come here. - Me?
Come. - Come fast.
Don't walk slowly like Guinea chicken. Come fast.
Hold this rooster.
Let Hari stay there. I will hold the rooster.
No need he will hold.
Hold him. - Take him.
Quick. Take him.
Careful. Don't press him too hard!
Open that beak. - Ok, Doctor.
Only two drops. Otherwise, the rooster will die.
One drop fell down.
Don't you have any work?
How is your juice shop? Is it closed now?
The rooster won't hurt you. - Hold him properly.
Mariyamma, he will crow perfectly from now on.
Sannan's brother-in-law lives abroad.
When he came home recently,
he wished to eat local chicken.
One and only brother-in-law, right?
Sannan straight away went to Mariyamma's home,
and asked to buy that rooster.
Mariyamma's attitude changed suddenly.
While she bent down to get a hacking knife,
Sannan ran for his life. This is what I heard.
Mariyamma has put some rosary on that rooster's foot.
That is problematic, Hari.
Nothing to do. Just bear with it.
You want a way to your home and can't
hear the rooster's crow as well.
That is difficult.
Here you go.
Why are you taking this now? It's for the night, right?
If I take this now. I will be off by night.
Tomorrow no one will be there at Mariyamma's home.
They're going to 'Kurishumoodu'.
Until noon, no one will be here also.
They will be busy with that land registration.
So?
Means?
What happened to you?
Have you met Diji Paul?
You are ok, right?
Hari...
You can keep the bag on top.
Where is Tiju? - I am here.
Benny, those who gave only half the money, sit them in the back.
No need for all that. Let them sit wherever they want.
Nobody left to reach from afar, right?
Sini, let us sit in the front.
We are on the way to Kurishumoodu.
Those who feel like vomiting, please inform us beforehand
We are starting our quiz program.
Benny is here, who is the expert in Bible quizzes in our parish.
We ask benny humbly do not participate
in this quiz, is it ok, Benny?
Let's start with the first question, Is everybody ready?
Ready? - Ready.
Who asked the first question mentioned in Bible?
Devil!
Hey, I have kept the food on the table, please eat.
Medicine is also nearby.
He has a high fever.
Let us take him to the hospital once we come back.
What is the height of Fighter Goliath?
How many feet is he? - Between 7 and 9 feet.
Correct, please give a big round of applause for Sannan
Sannan is heading ahead.
If he keeps up like this, there will be a
healthy competition between Benny and Sannan.
What is next?
Sajini sister's song!
Please sing!
Sister, how about you singing a song? Come on, let us sing a song.
This is the 5th time we are roaming around here.
People are getting suspicious.
Either you go to Veena's home
or you meet here and talk.
Isn't that embarrassing for me? - What is embarrassing? I give up.
Brother, Where is the banana fry?
See, Veena is coming. Go, go, go. Don't hide.
Shut up, Sudheer. - I will call her otherwise.
"The person you are calling is..."

Hari, Hari. Wake up.
Mom, mom.
What happened? Move away, you!!!
Manu, come fast.
Give me some more. - Next plate! Come!
Are you ok? - I am good.
What about you?
I am a bit confused.
I understand.
You were here?
I was thinking to go through that side...
Good decision. I am happy now.
I didn't plan this. I swear!
I was thinking,
You have heavy ground support.
Everybody who knows me
speaks highly of you.
What is your opinion?
Sini, can't we marry?
Sini, don't you want to eat?
I shall get going...
Hey,
I am not saying this to my parents.
After all this drama,
I will say it later.
I am ok for this.
"Hey! Snow's falling on the hills!"
"Hey!"
"Showers of gold are falling on the roads!"
"Hey!"
"You showered love upon me!"
"Hey!"
"I showered love upon you!"
Brother, is your brake working? - Yeah, why?
Just press on it.
Careful.
How much? - 300.
Sini, open that cage and see whether they ate anything.
Put some water too if it's not there.
Where's the key? - Key is there on the top of the cage.
Hello. - Tell me, Benny.
Sini, look at this side.
I am near the fence.
What? Not gonna sleep?
My sleep is gone.
I am going. I am sleepy. - Don't hang up.
What? - Nothing. Just like that.
Go and sleep. - Don't feel like sleeping.
It's chilly out there.
Go and sleep. Go. Go.
Sini, don't hang up.
[Rooster crowing]
Give me that.
Check if there are any sheep left.
Get me that camel too.
Rascal, why are you hiding from me?
I am suffering for days now.
We were together earlier all the time.
Now you and Hari have some secrets.
No! Nothing like that!
Then why didn't you tell us when Hari was admitted to the hospital?
It was not intentional...
Just because Sannan had to go to the hospital due to diarrhea
We were able to know the situation. Ask him if you don't believe it.
What he said is right.
Manu, tell me the truth. What is bothering Hari?
Else, we won't let you leave!
I will tell you.
Tell. - Yes, I will tell.
Tell us then. - I will.
It stinks! Did that rooster shit on his head?
Hey, mom asked me not to tell you this.
Your face was covered in shit when we took you to the hospital.
I swiped it with this shawl.
Shit on my face? - Yes.
Go look at your shirt.
Full of rooster leg marks, and dirt. Ugh!!
This stench is unbearable.
Hari, you are ok, right? If you are sick, go inside. Take rest.
It was on Christmas eve last year,
when Diji proposed to me.
I was so happy and excited.
The next day he arrived.
Then Veena eloped.
I and mom got embarrassed in front of everyone.
Kannan's lorry got caught by the police.
Brother also got embarrassed. We got into a fight.
I got distanced from Benny and Diji too.
Veena,
got into a quarrel with Kannan and is at my home now.
I can't get any sleep and
lost my peace of mind. I am fed up with my life now.
A few days before,
It disappeared early in the morning
and then jumped in front of Benny's vehicle.
But it didn't disappear randomly.
Fed up with its crowing since morning,
I opened the cage and let it go.
Why did you just let it go? Why didn't you kill it?
It's now simple as you think. It's a little dangerous.
I tried to kill him yesterday.
I don't remember anything since.
I was at the hospital when I regained consciousness.
Yesterday, it even shat on his face.
A small rooster is causing this much havoc?
We should shatter it into pieces and throw them away
Febin bro, you should find a solution immediately.
We should nab it! We should...
Yes. - Hari.
Tomorrow's dawn,
won't hear it's crowing!
Hey, stop the car. Stop the car.
Stop I said. - Why?
Gotta do something. Stop.
Where is Hari going? - Might be to pee.
Maybe because of drinking beer. - Let him go.
You are coming for Carole at this time?
Happy Christmas.
Oh my god.
Don't beat me Santa! No! - Who's the guinea chicken? Huh?
Hey, come. Who is that? What happened?
Check if someone saw us.
Start the car! - Only I saw it!
Go. Go escape. - You get lost.
Who is that guy, Hari?
Who was that? - Parish from the church?
The break won't work sometimes.
Not like we thought. The break works.
Guys. - Yes?
You sit here for now. I and Jinto are enough for this.
Yeah, ok.
Man. Do it.
We will have chicken curry and sleep.
Hari, We'll be right back.
Oh, this mask... - All the best.
Ok. - Where is the cage?
I can't see a thing. Shall I remove the mask?
The rooster might recognize us. - Correct!
This rooster and Hari have another connection. Air gun connection.
Lift it up.
Look, we only need the rooster, right?
Correct. Remove the tiles.
One, two... - Manu, what are they doing?
We should remove two more tiles. - Will he bite me?
Got it?
Got it. Got it. - Take him out.
I can't run like this with this belly!
It will reduce if you run.
Hari, mission completed.
What happened? - Got it. Jinto has it.
I have it. - Reverse the car! Hurry up.
The car is not starting. Where is the gearbox?
Here.
Huh? What is that sound?
Which rooster is that?
Give me that sac. - Sac?
Which one is this? Jinto?
Bag changed? - This is female.
Can't even differentiate male and female, idiots.
Damn!
Hari, give me one more chance. - Keep this and sit here.
Wear the mask and go
Otherwise, you will get caught. - Yes, you will surely get caught.
Where is the rooster?
Where is it?
Better you come down. Otherwise...
Kill her. - No, he will come.
See, the blackmailing worked. - Febin bro's idea worked.
See, see.
Surround him.
I have a hen with me.
Go there and catch.
Hey, it scratched me.
Catch it.
Catch it!
Throw the knife, Febin! - I lost the knife!
Try blackmailing again. - It won't work out.
Is it. Cover it up and catch!
Don't damage the crops.
I got it. Lost it.
Go through the other route!
Don't open the door!
Jesus!!
You are sleeping here? Wake up.
Wonderful! Came to catch the rooster and sleeping here.
I will catch it.
Look. He is on your body. Catch it.
What is this noise?
Get up and come!
Huh, haven't caught it till now?
It's going there! - Jinto, catch it!
Oh my god!!
Get up and catch him. - He has gone to the bushes there.
Throw at it.
Hit at least one!
Aim for the head.
- At least shot one.
Where is the rooster?
Whose car is that? - I also wonder.
Louis uncle, happy Christmas. Sini...
Where is the rooster?
Catch him.
Ugh! Careful!
What is that sound?
Remove this.
Catch him!
Benny. Go through that side. - Yes I will go through this side.
Hari. People are coming. Run, Jinto!
I will come only after catching him.
Who are you?
Let go of me! - Who are you?
You!!
Louis uncle! You...
Oh, no! Benny... - Benny!
Oh, Mother! Louis! What do we do?
Shall we call Mythri aunty?
Get in fast. Start the car.
Do you know driving? - No.
Then move.
Don't say to anyone that Mariyamma hit him. Hurry up!
Benny is not moving.
Hari bro, Get inside. - Where's the brake?
Get in fast. Let's go!!
Let's go. Let's go. - Pulling is less for the car.
We could have taken revenge if we knew who hit him.
Who could have done it?
Hello. - Hello.
Varghese's head got fractured. Oh!!
God's grace.
Louis uncle. I can't get up.
No need. You take rest.
Mariyamma, don't be sad.
He will come.
Who would have taken him?
I was taking care of him like my son.
Mariyamma, because of your rooster I suffered a lot.
My son also suffered a lot. He is in hospital now.
I know who hit him.
If I see you rooster again in this compound again,
I will smash him on the road and kill him.
Mercy, come sit. - You shut up, Pavithra.
It's a silly case of some thief stealing a rooster!
Yet, she'd just hit innocent people for that!
Don't strain the neck a lot.
I don't have that much problem.
I wonder how I manage to find all the troubles in this world.
Don't be distressed, Mariyamma.
He will come back.
Mom, Kannan had called.
He is coming here. - When?
That he didn't tell. He is bringing a surprise too, it seems.
I wonder what it would be.
Good that we tied it tight.
Otherwise, it would have fallen on the road.
Kannan..
Mariyamma, don't be sad thinking about the past.
Sini eloped? - No!
Someone stole her rooster last night.
Oh!! just a rooster?
People here are obsessed about little, trivial things, huh?
A lot of things to learn from here. I will.
Hey, son! - Mom!
Machine... A new sewing machine. It's from 'Usha'.
Come, let's take this inside. - No, no. The baby.
Let me hold it. - I'll carry it.
Let me help you, son. - Sure then, mom.
Hari, did someone see you yesterday when you caught that rooster?
I don't know.
Someone might have seen me.
Great.
Manu.
Coming.
Jinto, can you hold this?
My hands are off!
Manu! - Coming.
Who is that? Is it the police?
Is it too hot? - A bit.
Now?
Hello.
Helloooo.
Who is this? - Can you guess?
Who are you? Damn it.
Your brother-in-law. Brother...
I am at our home. Come fast. Where are you?
I have a surprise here.
I will come now. - Ok. Come.
This is Mariyamma's rooster, right? - Well...
This is the one which got stolen last night, right?
I think so. - You think so?
What happened to your face, you said?
I fell down from a tree. What happened, mom?
How did this rooster come here, then?
Perhaps, in a dire situation...
We stole the rooster, not thieves.
You better take back the rooster to its home.
Understand? - Please.
Mom, please. - What please?
Manu, are you gonna take it there or should I release it?
Mom, they will beat me to death if I go there now.
I see. I will let it go, then.
Mom... Mom, please.
All efforts wasted.
Mom. Don't release it. It's gonna be a problem.
Mom...
Febin bro, will it go to my house?
There is a chance.
Tipper for taking cow-dung load? Are you mad?
Ugh! - What?
Nothing. This rooster here.
What? - Not you.
Annamma!
I see lots of bruises on its body.
What happened? - Yesterday, something...
Its right wing is slightly fractured.
Some Mangoose attacked it?
The beauty of the wing is gone.
All vaccines taken?
Why do want this rooster?
I have this business of breeding chicken.
All the ones I have are colored breeds.
For a change I wanted white.
I have seen it before.
He is quite good.
Shall I get going, then...?
Annamma...
Where did you get him?
Well...
We got it.
I see.
Alright, then.
What happened?
What's it, bro? - Nothing.
