"The lord is my rock. Thou art my saviour, oh, lord!"
"He who is bold and majestic be; To God be the glory!"
Thank you!
Sister, you see...
I'm saving up, struggling, really... To buy myself a TV this month.
It's not compulsory for you, dear.
Thanks, Sister.
I have told you many times, don't give your entire salary.
I know how you struggle, don't I?
I'm just doing my bit.
I have raised so many children here and sent them out.
Most of them don't even drop by to visit.
They have all settled abroad, joined IAS,
married into well-to-do families.
Last week, I wrote to Christina asking,
if she could send five thousand rupees...
To buy clothes for the children.
I haven't even received a reply.
On the other hand, you are like this!
Wait!
Let's not blame anyone, Sister.
Heaven is what we perceive.
I have you here, and the children...
And Jesus is always by my side.
For me, that's enough.
Goodbye, Sister! See you next Sunday.
Hi, kiddos! I'm here.
Who wants?
Who wants it?
No, no, no.
You can't all ask at once!
First, it's for my sweet baby...
Let me go!
No fighting.
Next week... - Lollipops.
Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name...
Your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread;
And forgive us our trespasses,
as we forgive them that trespass against us;
A salary of sixty five thousand?
Yes, to take care of a four year old boy.
They will take care of food and accommodation, too.
It's only a husband and wife in the family.
I'm so lucky! Who could find such a good job?
Jesus has sent it my way.
What are you thinking?
But why are they paying so much to take care of a little boy?
I'm a little scared.
Maybe they will ask me to cook and clean, too.
But that's okay.
Sixty five thousand, Sister!
If I work for two years, I can save up about 1.5 million.
Take a look around you. The building is falling apart.
Let's fix everything and paint the place.
Won't you ever think about yourself, girl?
I am thinking about myself.
When you are gone, I must take care of all this, right?
But unlike you, I won't stop with school.
I'll start college. When the kids graduate, they must leave with jobs.
We will see.
Before that, I'll find you some boy to marry.
If you can, find me this guy.
Prada.
Armani.
Luis Vuitton.
Versace.
Giordano.
Boss!
Today, Ferragamo.
Another omelette, sir?
Bye, dear. - Bye.
Come, Rishi. Give your father a hug.
My son!
Bye, guys. See you in the evening.
Good morning, sir.
Good morning, brother.
Good morning, boss.
- Good morning!
Hello, leader! - Morning! Morning!
Very good morning.
Good morning, sir. - Morning!
Good morning.
Morning. -Good morning.
Sir...
I need your signature.
Of course, Munuswamy. Bring it on.
Nice shoes, sir.
Yes.
Ferragamo. Eighty thousand rupees!
Very nice, sir.
Thank you, Munuswamy.
Any more signatures? - That's all, sir.
Thank you, sir.
Hello? Yes, father-in-law?
Shwetha is fine.
A-17 containers? It should have reached by now.
It hasn't? Let me check right away.
No, father-in-law. I'll go there and check for myself.
1,200 pieces? It'll be ready by tonight.
I'll have them finish it, no matter what.
Okay, father-in-law.
No, they said it was the Lake Area.
There is only one house in this area.
Thank you.
Selvaraj! She is the new hired help.
Walk faster.
Go upstairs.
I have been yelling since morning that I have got a headache!
None of you mongrels pay attention.
If we have run out of tablets, why won't you buy more?
Bloody scumbags!
Where is your doctor's certificate?
It's in the file.
I don't want you to infect the child with some disease.
What's with the name? Mariam?
You must always be with the child and take good care.
He is very reserved. And takes a while to warm up.
When he gets angry, he is uncontrollable.
You must be patient.
I fall sick often.
You must take care of my needs.
The master has a healthy appetite.
This man's food has killed my taste buds.
If you know any recipes, teach him.
But don't touch the food that's prepared for us.
He prepares meals for the servants. You must eat that.
I leave my jewellery lying around.
Don't think about running away with it. I'll call the cops right away.
The woman who worked for us before you is in prison, you know?
Go on.
They will show you your quarters.
Madam, the child?
He's asleep.
Take a shower and freshen up. He will be awake by then.
You look kind of pretty.
But don't walk around with make-up, lipstick dabbed all over your face.
I'll kill you.
The missus is a little grumpy like that.
But the Master... He is gold.
He is like M.G.R.
He is such a giver.
This is our living quarters.
You can set up on that side.
There's a T.V. Facebook, YouTube... Everything works.
The nights are filled with entertainment!
Oh!
Listen, I'll call you in a bit.
I'm sleeping. Can't you see?
What?
Madam, there are only men in the servant quarters.
I'm a girl. How can I stay alone there?
Do you want to move into our bedroom?
You people start off the moment you land here!
No, madam. I want to be alone.
I don't mind sleeping in the kitchen.
There's a store-room next to the child's room.
Tidy it up and use it.
And stop coming to me with your petty problems.
If you sleep in so late, how will you sleep at night?
Rishi...
You are a tough one to please, huh?
Rishi!
Look at me! I'm the Spider-man.
Now we will do Batman?
How would Batman smile?
Yes, again!
Nice.
What are you doing?
He never laughs like this.
Is everything alright, kiddo?
Anyway, I'm watching my T.V. shows?
Play outside.
Throw that crap away.
I'll put him to sleep, madam?
Already?
Yes, he has school in the morning.
If he wakes up in the middle of the night, you must deal with it.
Okay, madam.
Daddy!
Fool!
You call this food?
It tastes disgusting!
Fool!
Think I'll take millions to the grave,
with money, you're saving on food?
Rascal!
From tomorrow, you will serve them the same food you cook for me.
Understood? - Okay, sir.
You have been slacking.
Eat well.
Don't be shy.
Learn to ask.
Without asking, you won't get anything in this world.
Okay?
I told you. He is like M.G.R.
He wishes to give everyone what he gets.
The girl who has come to take care of Rishi...
What do you think of her?
The boy connects with her.
That's most important.
So, you noticed?
The boys told me.
She looks pretty.
Noticed that, did you?
I didn't notice.
She is a young girl. Surrounded by so many men.
What if she runs away with someone?
She doesn't seem the type.
So, you did notice.
You know what I'm trying to say... - Just speak in Tamil.
Sorry, sir.
He won't let me sleep.
There's a park in the next street.
You can ask the boys for directions. - Okay, madam.
It's a Sunday. His friends will be there.
Let him play with them for sometime. - Okay, madam.
I won't keep telling you each time.
It's the same routine every day. You must follow it.
Auntie! Auntie!
Say 'Hi'!
- Hi.
Rishi baby!
Thank you.
I suddenly felt like seeing the boy.
Sorry.
If you want...
It's alright, dear.
You sleep.
Grandpa! Can't you see that man is stealing your fruit?
You are just letting him go?
I can't see, miss.
I was born blind.
You go ahead, miss. I'll watch out.
Grandpa, I have dropped the child at school.
He will get done in three hours.
I can mind the shop around this time every day.
I can't pay you, miss.
Come on.
Instead of idling around, at least I can make myself useful.
Besides, once they know you are not alone...
Thieves like him will think twice.
What's your name, miss?
Mariam, grandpa.
What's wrong, grandpa?
Why do you cry for such a small thing?
Miss.
I have mixed yesterday's fish gravy with rice here.
It's very tasty. Eat it.
Why, grandpa? No thanks.
It's past noon. You must be hungry.
Eat it.
No, grandpa. I'm going home...
For me?
It'll make me happy.
What about you?
Look.
You mind the shop.
I'll buy some bread.
Bread? - Yes. You like it, don't you?
How did you know?
Sir...
Doctor? - Tell me, sir.
I'll tell you.
I think I'm burning with a fever.
Oh, my God!
I can't take it.
Dear, I just can't take this.
Doesn't look like a fever though.
I don't know, dear. Call the doctor.
One hundred and two!
God!
This is unbelievable.
But his body doesn't feel warm.
No. Sometimes... You can't feel the temperature outside the body.
Sometimes... It is warm only inside the body.
You have got one hundred and two degrees fever.
What should I do, sir?
Rest well for a day.
Don't go to the factory.
Sir, no!
I need to go.
There's an important audit today.
You can't go. You have got a fever.
Okay?
Dear...
It's so...
It's fine. I'll go.
I'll take care of the audit.
You rest at home. Why do you exert yourself?
No, dear. I...
Lie down. Eat something and take tablets.
I'll get ready.
Hello. - Mr Auditor?
Tell me. - I'll tell you.
He says... hey
Your fever. - It's alright.
I rarely get a chance like this,
to spend time with my boy.
It's all good.
Okay, sir.
'Like a silver moon at nightfall; Like a white dove in my soul.'
What's this? See, he's still dirty here.
Rub him this way.
Come here. Bathe him like this...
Bathe him well.
Sir! Either you bathe him, or I will.
Why? Let's bathe him together.
No, sir. Wait outside. I'll bring him once we are done.
Rishi!
Miss...
You join us, too.
Why her?
Wide lens. It's for the composition.
Sit down.
These are fond memories. I must record them.
You are not going to work here forever.
You are outside the frame. Come inside the frame.
Hello?
Hello.
Hello?
Hello.
Hello, who is this?
Hello!
Who?
We weren't invited to the party. But act like we were.
Hello! - Hi, Sheethal. How are you?
Hi, Dinesh. Where is Kalyan?
Yes, correct. You're always right.
Who is he? Never seen him before.
His name is Ramasamy. New money.
So, he changed his name to Ramsay.
You know the Mudaliar who owns Coimbatore Kamakshi Mills?
Ramasamy was a chief mechanic at his factory.
He kept following Mudaliar around like a puppy.
Don't know how he managed to pick her up.
But Mudaliar's daughter refused to marry anyone but him.
Mudaliar tried to talk her out of it. But she attempted suicide.
Without a choice, Mudaliar got them married,
gifted this factory and sent them here.
He has got money?
Lots of it. -He is smart, alright.
He even supplies to my factory.
Hi, Mr Ramsay! Pleasure meeting you.
I'm Siddharth. Kalyan's friend.
Hi. - Kalyan. It's a great party!
Why didn't you invite me?
So, sorry, man. How was Raghu's party?
Not that great, man.
Everyone was talking about the Lodha Committee.
Yes, we were talking about the same thing. - Yeah.
What are your views, Ramsay?
You know, I, personally, think politicians,
should not enter into sports.
That's where the problem starts.
Right, man.
I'm always right.
I may be a businessman.
But I'm also a common man, you know.
I see truth where...
Hey, Jackie-boy!
Shit.
Jack! Jack!
Kripa, take this dog away!
Hey, Jack.
Come. Come, come, come.
I'm so sorry, Ramsay.
Normally, a friendly dog.
Give me the coat. I'll clean it up for you.
It's nothing, man.
I think he likes me too much!
Don't worry about the coat. I'll clean it myself.
It is Armani. Two hundred thousand rupees.
Hey, Kalyan!
All okay?
Good.
We didn't have time to invite anyone...
Sir, I tied up the dog to get him food.
When I went back, he was missing.
He must have untied himself.
It's okay. He will find his way back.
Too many invitees, we didn't know whom to call...
Boy. - Brother?
I didn't eat at the party.
I'm hungry.
Shall I wake up Das?
Don't wake him. He must have gotten drunk and crashed.
What should I do?
I'll tell you.
What is it?
Sir, you haven't eaten.
I asked her if she could make something.
You dog! Are you out of your mind?
I told you to wake up Das, didn't I?
I tried to wake him up. He didn't.
Okay, then buy something from some restaurant!
What would be open at this hour, sir?
So?
You woke her up in the middle of the night?
Fool!
Sorry, miss.
You go to sleep.
It's okay, sir.
You won't be able to sleep if you skip dinner.
I'll make something. Eat your dinner.
Oh, come on.
Go to sleep, Miss.
I'm a little hungry though. And my intestines are on fire.
My stomach is in knots. And my head feels dizzy; I'm fainting.
But that's okay.
Skipping one dinner won't kill me.
No one should suffer because of me.
Go, go, go, go.
Go to sleep.
Sir, what's this?
This is no trouble.
I'll get it ready in ten minutes.
He is had a few drinks.
In case he falls asleep here, you...
I'll handle it.
Wow!
It's been so long since I have eaten like this.
Those are competent hands.
I wish to bejewel those hands with gold.
My father did warn me...
"Son..."
"Don't marry into a rich family."
"Marry a girl within your league."
I didn't pay heed.
Sir, no!
Good night, sir.
It's the boss!
What, brother? It didn't work out? - Quiet!
Does she talk about me?
Everyone is scared of madam, right.
She must worry that madam would fire her. So, she's hesitant.
Do you like her a lot?
Can't call her 'beautiful.'
But she is beautiful.
Watch out, brother.
When you have a dry spell, even average faces appear beautiful.
You mongrel!
For ten grand, I can find a much better chick.
Is that life?
They come. They perform for half an hour.
They take the cash, stick it over here and leave.
Who needs that?
This is love!
Love is what happens at first sight.
What you feel after meeting often is the hots.
This is love.
Can't you tell, just by looking at her face?
She is a fresh bloom.
Once it's worn on the head, a jasmine flower stinks.
But fresh from the plant...
It is fragrant.
Very delicate, brother.
From your position, if you ask her, She will act stuck up.
'Delicate.'
English?
You are learning?
Yes, brother.
Point taken.
From my position, I can't ask her.
Son...
You are the one with the innocent face here.
Only your face, though.
I know all about the stuff you do with the cook lady next door.
That's not a problem.
A man with teeth will chew his peas.
I have teeth.
But I also have responsibilities.
I don't care what you will do.
Talk to her about me all day long.
Tomorrow night... I'll see her like this.
Mariam should sit herself on my lap.
Just...
You get it?
Brother, it's not such a big deal.
Divorce madam and settle down with her?
I didn't know... Forgive me, brother.
You should know before you speak.
You can't find out after uttering the words.
Divorce?
The factory, the assets, all of it...
You want me to end up like this. Become a beggar, like you?
That will make you happy?
That's your plan?
I have worked so hard to get to this position.
Her father is a straight thinker.
Even my undies are owned by madam.
Understood?
He is just a newbie. He will learn.
Prem? - I'm talking to her, brother.
Go ahead. Keep talking.
What happened?
I kept singing your praises, brother.
All day, I kept saying great things about you.
In the end...
I asked her, 'Even men can't resist our boss.'
'Being a woman, don't you love him?'
And she hit me.
But you said great things!
Yes. Look, its swollen.
What did the doctor say?
He said to rest for five days.
She hit you that hard?
She only appears skinny.
Fine. Let him rest for five days.
Prem, you don't work anyway. Anyhow, rest for the next five days.
Get him meals from Saravana Bhavan...
Brother, non-veg please?
Okay. Get him mutton biryani from Thalapakatti.
You shall eat only biryani.
Understood? - Okay, brother.
You get some rest.
My boy!
My precious!
You were lying in the harbour like this!
I took you upon my shoulder and brought you here.
You were raised on my shoulders.
A woman hit you? That b...
I can't swear here. You all are children.
We shall handle this.
What did you say in the end?
What?
You said you told her something in the end?
I asked her, 'Even men can't resist our boss.'
'Being a woman, don't you love him?'
That will do.
I like it.
Good.
Had food?
No, sir. After the boy is asleep...
I was asking about the boy. Not you.
Yes, he ate.
When a man is attractive, people tend to say things.
But you can't raise your hand at him!
Shwetha!
Where are you, dear? I had a lot to drink.
I can't see too well. Shwetha!
Shwetha, what is this?
Everything looks blurry. Oh, no!
Shwetha, where is our bed?
Come to me, Shwetha. I need you now.
Let me go.
Why do you squirm? The child is asleep. - Let go!
It's not like I ask for it every day.
Besides, I had a bad day...
Shwetha! I want to kiss you all over your body.
To make the sadness go away.
Come on, Shwetha!
Madam!
Oh, darn!
Shwetha...
Look, ask him to behave!
Or you will see a different me.
He got drunk, tried to hug and kiss me.
You wretch. How dare you speak about my husband that way?
Listen, madam. This is the limit.
I came here to take care of your son.
Not to take care of your husband.
Rishi is the only reason I'm still here.
It's up to you to control him when he is drunk.
Isn't that what you're here for?
You are so arrogant.
Do you know whom you're speaking to?
Get this man out of here,
or I'll leave in the morning.
Don't speak about my husband that way.
You're just a servant dog!
Why wait till morning? Leave now. You're fired!
That's great. I don't need to work for such a despicable family.
Shwetha!
Why is she in our bedroom?
What's the problem?
You wretch...
Look at him!
Poor thing thought this was our bedroom,
and hugged you thinking it was me.
You're kicking up such a fuss!
God knows what stress he underwent at the factory.
And he made a mistake when he's drunk.
Are you throwing such a fit for this?
What? I got drunk and came here...
And held this girl?
Oh, no! God!
Sweetheart!
You don't have to explain.
I know you.
Miss... Mariam!
You thought so low of me?
My body is shivering!
I have been drunk so many times before, wasn't I focused?
But now, there's the factory... Finance... Tax...
My burdens are numerous!
My heart is filled with pain.
Inebriation and depression, can each be handled apart.
When mixed, it can make a man miserable.
And I slipped.
Let bygones be bygones.
If you wish to forgive me...
Please stay on.
If not, you may leave.
Baby, why do you explain all this to her?
Good riddance, after all. Let her go.
Baby, no!
She shouldn't pay for my mistake.
Rishi is very fond of her.
And she cares for Rishi like her own child.
Ever since she came into our home, I have not seen Rishi crying once!
If she just walks out...
Oh, the grief my son would feel!
Oh, Mariam!
Didn't your Jesus forgive sinners?
Why can't you?
Enough, Ramsay!
Not just her, you must never speak so low about yourself.
You are the King! Stand tall.
So, what if I'm King?
I have slipped.
My Queen! Shwetha! The love of my life.
I feel dizzy, I'm fainting.
I can't stop crying.
Can I sleep on your lap tonight?
Do you need to ask? What am I here for?
I'm your bloody wife.
Come, let's go to our bedroom.
I'm fine...
Careful, baby.
Sorry, dear.
It's okay.
Sister?
What is it? Why have you called so late?
Is something wrong?
I put the child to sleep and started my prayer...
Are you happy with the child?
Yes. I... - Thank God!
The children and I were all praying for you.
I'm so happy.
I was so sad today, with my Mariam gone.
You should have seen these little faces today.
Oh, they were so happy!
Once a week, they get eggs, chicken and mutton on Sundays.
Jesus.
We are blessed for so many lives.
You know what?
We have got a new roof for the church, with the money you sent.
What can I say?
God has taken your form.
Hold on, will you speak to her?
Only today, someone dropped her off outside the church.
She even looks like you.
Mariam?
Sister!
Rishi?
Sister...
Good morning, kiddo.
Just a little bit more, kiddo.
I have given you a raise.
One hundred thousand per month.
Why, madam?
I don't know your problem.
But you take good care of Rishi. And that's enough.
Madam, I'm not taking care of Rishi just for the money.
I know.
Thanks.
Mariam.
Yes, madam.
It's nothing.
Okay, madam.
Twelve. Thirteen. Fourteen.
Fifteen. Sixteen. Seventeen.
Eighteen. Nineteen.
Twenty.
Rishi!
Rishi. No!
Good morning.
Morning. - How are you?
Are you alright?
Rishi is downstairs.
I had gone to dry the clothes, kiddo.
Weepy-eyes already?
My darling. No crying!
Look, I have got a Spider-man shirt!
Let's put it on?
Don't cry, kiddo.
How are you, father-in-law?
It's nothing major,
but it's important.
Don't know why, Shwetha has been missing you off-late.
She keeps saying, 'Daddy this, daddy that.'
You even come in her dreams!
She hasn't seen you in so long.
But don't tell her I told you all this.
Correct, correct. She won't agree.
So, you could call her up.
And say that there's a board meeting...
Oh, there's actually a board meeting? God is great.
You could use that pretext...
Oh! Enough said, then.
Correct! Correct!
You know best.
I'll hang up, father-in-law. I'll hang up, father-in-law.
They don't even let me pee!
Hi baby. I'm in a meeting.
Are you busy? - No!
No, no.
I have stepped out. Tell me, dear.
Dad called.
There's an urgent board meeting. He asked me to come over.
Board meeting is important.
Yes.
What about the flight, booking, pick-up?
You know it. - Daddy, as usual.
When? - This evening.
Today?
Rishi... - I'll take care of the child.
Not a problem.
You can't take the child to board meetings.
Correct? - Yeah.
Sir, the highway contract...
Can't you see I'm talking to my wife?
You were saying, dear?
When will you be back?
I'll return in three days.
Okay.
Without you, the house will be so...
Okay, bye.
Right. Okay, then.
Bye, baby. - Bye.
Hi, baby!
You have reached?
All well?
Love you, too. Bye!
Mariam, I don't know what's wrong with Prem.
He is running a temperature.
You have all these medicines. Can you give him something?
Mariam!
- I'm coming.
Mariam, the boss has arrived. You go downstairs...
And give him the tablets.
Boss always asks for hot coffee when he gets home.
Where is everyone?
Selvaraj!
- What?
That boy...
Prem has fever?
Yes, he is throwing up, too.
He can't even walk. He's lying there like a corpse.
Okay, I'll see him.
It's important to give the right medicines.
You stay with the child.
Okay, Mariam.
Selvaraj!
Wait out here. Don't go inside.
Okay, Mariam.
Selvaraj!
I'll be right back.
Sure.
Why are the lights off?
Prem?
You have...
I will...
I'm going straight to the police station now.
I...
Will never forgive you.
She must not get out of here.
She is threatening me!
Do what is necessary.
It's cold!
This wasn't a part of the plan.
Yes, but now boss wants it done.
She's done for anyway.
Are we in agreement?
Yes, yes.
Right.
Let's get started. It's getting late.
I'm the eldest. I'll go first.
Sure thing, chief.
More on the right side. - Okay.
Fill it up around the body.
Make it fast.
Finish up here. I'll take a shower by the stream.
Sister! Sister!
Excuse me?
I'm talking...
Madam?
Sister!
Good afternoon, madam.
Welcome, sweetheart.
I missed you so bad!
How was the trip?
How is father-in-law doing?
Didn't go to office?
I wanted to see you before I leave.
Dad was so happy to see me.
He could hardly control his excitement.
After so long, we had a heart-to-heart conversation.
That's great.
And there was the board meeting, too.
Where is Rishi?
Mariam?
Where has she gone? She left the child alone?
She left.
The same night you left...
I came back home from the factory, and she was gone.
The boys don't know anything, either.
I kept looking for her!
How could someone just leave like that?
Besides, she loved Rishi!
She got one phone call, it seems.
And she seemed pre-occupied ever since.
That's what Das told me.
Darn!
Why do these mongrels act this way?
I trusted her with my child!
Did you check with the agency?
They don't know anything either.
They keep saying, 'Sorry sir, sorry sir.'
But let it go.
She was arrogant enough to run away. Why do you worry?
Who else pays so much money and takes such good care?
She must have gotten carried away, once she made a few bucks.
She will ruin her life and then she'll learn.
But I'll make this clear...
No matter how much she begs, don't hire her again.
You know about Ramsay, don't you?
Bye, baby! - Bye.
Prem, bring those bags upstairs. - Okay, madam.
Madam, you husband and his men...
Leave those covers there.
What is it, dear?
Sister!
Sister is gone.
Come, Mommy has bought you new toys.
Sister, come!
Rishi!
Go, go, go!
Come inside.
Come, come, come!
Door!
Close the door...
Come, come, come...
Into the bed!
Come on...
Quick, into the bed.
Rishi, the phone...
The phone!
Okay! - Yes, yes...
Jungle run!
Listen to me, Rishi!
Listen to your mother, be a good boy. - I want sister!
What can I do if she's gone? Bathe now.
Sister! - Oh, Rishi...
Sister... Over here!
To me...
Come on!
Come on, sister.
Let's play!
Do it, do it!
This way, sister.
Sister!
Come! Sister...
Bye, guys. See you in the evening.
Bye!
My son!
Sister.
Boss, a Sister has from some church is here.
She wants to talk to you.
Please wait. The boss will come.
Tell me, Sister. How can I help you?
I have come from the church.
Mariam grew up there.
Tell me.
She would call every day or text.
But I haven't heard from her in four days.
Her phone is switched off, too.
I called up the agency.
They said she left without notice.
My Mariam is not that type of girl.
So, I came to ask you what happened?
That's correct.
Sir, I raised that girl.
She wouldn't do anything without telling me.
Moreover, Mariam has told me so much about your child.
She wouldn't leave him in the middle of the night.
I can't even imagine such a thing.
Oh!
So?
Are you doubting us?
Of course, not, sir.
But surely someone must know something?
If you could please, ask them and tell me?
What's there to ask?
She is a young girl.
She must have eloped with some guy.
It's very common these days.
Mr Ramasamy!
What do you know about Mariam?
She only came to work here,
to feed the children in our church two square meals.
I promise you...
I have not seen Jesus.
Just her.
From the way you're speaking...
I get the feeling something has gone wrong here.
Look here! I thought some Sister,
from the church is here for donation...
and I only agreed to meet so that I could help.
I don't have time for this.
If you have a problem, go to the police station.
Let them find out.
You can't just land here and create a scene in the morning!
At least 2,000 people work for me.
Is it my job to watch what they are up to?
By the way...
My name is Ramsay.
Not Ramasamy.
Show me the place where she stayed.
Das!
Upstairs, sir.
That's Mariam's cross!
Even if it's the end of the world, she wouldn't leave it behind.
Tell me the truth!
What?
Fine.
I'll ask my secretary to look into it.
Look what I get for being such a good guy.
I don't know. I wasn't in town.
Was Mariam alone here?
Yes.
And when you returned, she wasn't here?
What's wrong, Sister?
No.
Four men work here.
What if they,
did something bad?
Sister, they have worked here for twenty years now.
So many women have worked here before.
They have never even thrown a second glance.
I'm a woman, too.
I have been alone here so many times.
How could you ask such a thing?
Okay, miss.
This is my number.
Please call me if you get to know something.
I'm going to the police station.
Sister...
Not even your eyes can see me?
Look, I'm right next to you.
Sister!
I don't understand what's happening to me.
Sister!
Sister...
Mariam!
Are you around somewhere, baby?
I don't know what to think...
If someone had even laid a finger on you...
He will perish!
Oh, I was burning up with fever.
I never left my hut.
She must have eloped with someone, who knows?
A dog was run over outside the house. I was cleaning it up.
I never left the gate. Boss would come home around that time.
I had to make coffee, for boss.
She clearly planned the escape.
Oh, what a trial!
Rishi!
Keep playing here. I'll go poop and come back.
Sister, let's play.
You close your eyes, I'll go to the water.
Rishi!
Rishi! Rishi!
Rishi!
Sister!
In the beginning, God created, the heavens and the earth.
Now the earth was formless and empty...
Darkness was over the surface of the deep.
And the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters.
And God said, 'Let there be light,' and 'there was light.'
Why are you sweating so much?
What?
I don't know, brother.
It's really cold. I think I have caught a fever.
You kept singing, "I was running a fever".
Now you have really caught it?
Don't rub it in.
Give me some tablet.
Those are the tablets she got the other day, right there.
Careful, boy.
You will get into trouble if you take the wrong tablet.
Doesn't matter if more lorries run-over a dead dog!
Mariam!
Rishi!
Sister...
Sister!
Even higher!
What's all this?
What do you mean the boy is flying and laughing?
You fell asleep watching some animated movie?
No, Ramsay.
I swear...
Believe me, I saw it.
Ask Rishi if you want.
Prem has fever.
I need to make coffee.
Boss is home.
See? He keeps doing that.
He's always looking somewhere, speaking and playing alone.
When I was asleep this afternoon, the room got cold as ice.
I could barely breathe.
So, I got up to switch off the air-conditioner.
But it wasn't even on!
No, Ramsay.
Something is not right here.
Nothing to fear.
Just relax.
No, Ramsay. Do something.
Call someone here.
I can't just call someone.
There's a child in the house!
People will start talking.
Exactly what I mean.
There's a child. What if something happened?
Are you crazy? Huh?
What could happen?
It's happening, sir. Strange things are happening.
Prem is lying there like a corpse.
Out of nowhere, some 20 lorries line up outside,
like they will run over us.
The security guard is too afraid to go anywhere near the gate.
Ever since we killed that girl, nothing is going right.
Kiddo, go and play.
You cheating mongrel!
I'll never forgive you for raping.
But you were right to kill the girl.
Had she gone to the police or press...
What would happen to my father's reputation?
Our lives would be ruined!
None of our friends would even respect us.
Where?
Where is it, man?
You must have it stashed somewhere.
Bring it.
You would go to prison.
My dad and I will be witnesses, we can't even go abroad.
The press would gather around outside my house.
I'd have to sneak through some narrow alley with my head covered!
You stupid moron!
I told you to find a mistress outside the house for emergencies.
What have you done?
Ramsay, Ramsay, Ramsay!
I'm giving you two days' time.
By then, this house better become normal again.
Or else...
I'll burn this house down and go to my father's house.
I'll take the child.
Without you.
Go back to where you came from.
You filthy, swine of a beggar.
Careful!
I love you.
Okay?
Hold on, don't be afraid. - No, let me go. I can't do this.
Forgive me, brother.
I knew you would come.
I had one ready for you.
No, thank you.
I'm feeling low.
When does one stop toiling?
Born in the sewer, raised in the garbage...
Fell at the feet of so many to get a job at the factory...
Killed a contractor here and a labour in-charge there...
Licked my boss's foot to get a position...
Not wanting to die with just that...
I supplied drugs to the boss's daughter,
seduced her and got married to her.
And just when I settle down in this forest,
because my father-in-law has given me this factory...
And just as I was thinking 'Life is going good...'
This bloody ghost has landed here.
I can't do this.
I'm exhausted, friend.
My friend!
Come, sit next to me.
I'll feel better.
It's Mariam, sir. She keeps scaring me.
Go away!
What's up with him?
He was lying down with a fever. Hasn't woken up since.
I brought our family doctor to see him. Nothing seems to work.
He's asking me to admit him in the hospital.
And he keeps blabbering. How can I send him, Ramsay?
Murderers! Sinners!
Dude.
Shut up, man.
I'm so chafed myself.
Friend...
Do you remember?
We used to eat happily,
enjoy every girl we could get our hands-on...
Killed all those who crossed us,
and talked about it all night over drinks.
Those were simpler times.
Looks like being on top means trouble.
No, I didn't. I never said that!
No man would find him attractive. No one would.
He's a scoundrel and is cheap. He will perish.
Shut up, man.
I only asked you to say great things.
You went and told her,
'Even a man can't resist him, how could a woman?'
And now you are trashing me.
Damn you! - Let it go, Ramsay.
Keep quiet, man.
You simply need to kill and grind it in a machine...
Oh, shut up.
Why did you bury her inside the house?
No, we wanted to mark the place.
Be quiet, man!
Like the Taj Mahal?
Sorry, Ramsay. I didn't expect this.
Learning, huh?
Be quiet, man!
It's okay.
Shit happens.
That's life.
Be quiet, man!
Keep quiet!
I kept telling you to be quiet. You won't listen?
Burn him, at least.
Don't bury him.
Careful.
Or he will also come after us like her.
I raised that boy!
How long can a man be good?
Is he dead?
Yes, he is dead.
Ramasamy!
What? Has everyone gone crazy?
Ramasamy!
Can I sleep inside today?
Friend, Selvaraj has left.
Prem...
And this guy, too.
It's strange being alone.
There's the dead body. But I'll burn it early tomorrow morning.
Somehow, for some reason, I have got you.
Come.
Don't let the madam catch you...
Is there a bus to Tuticorin from here?
Where is the bus stand?
Don't know.
What is it, son?
Old man...
The bus broke down. I need to get to my town.
It's urgent.
Oh, no!
There are no buses here at this time.
Only lorries.
Do something...
Walk down that path in the forest.
Walk steadily for ten minutes, and you will hit the bus stand.
You will find your bus there.
I'm calling from the Police Station.
We just found the mobile phone of one Selvaraj.
Sorry, there's been an accident.
Death. He died on the spot.
The body is so disfigured...
It wasn't just one lorry. So many lorries ran over him...
You come soon and identify the body.
Ramsay!
I'm scared.
Fine, let it go.
Come.
Let's get out of this house.
See, what happened to the guy who left?
There's too much travel, baby!
First, the car drive to the airport, then flight...
And the car again!
Many chances for her to play her move.
I don't mind it, honestly.
But flight...
200 - 300 co-passengers.
It's fine if we die...
But,
innocent people shall not die because of us!
We are not terrorists. Okay?
Besides...
Where will we go?
To your father's house?
She will come there too, and father-in-law will find out.
We don't want that.
She won't harm Rishi.
I don't care about you.
But... I love you.
Okay?
But what if something happened to me?
You have given me two days' time. We will see.
Stop nagging me.
This house is not nothing!
It was built with blood and sweat...
Mine and your father's.
This is no ordinary house.
After I'm gone, my descendants, their descendants,
will live in this house!
This is Ramsay House.
My grandfather was a Ramsay. My great grandfather was a Ramsay.
My family name is Ramsay!
She's cut off the T.V.
The cable must have conked.
Heat milk for the child.
I swear I don't know how.
I'm hungry.
Cook something for me.
You only know how to eat.
Mix gram flour and rice flour with water to make a batter.
Beat well, till it becomes light.
Why is it so dark outside?
Add a tablespoon of pepper and salt and mix it well.
Father finger, father finger, Ooh, La! La!
Here I am, here I am; Ooh, La! La!
Hey...
I'm starving!
I feel like eating something.
Order something over the phone.
Hello, Sunrise Fast food.
Okay. - Okay!
Two chicken fried rice. - Two chicken fried rice.
One chicken Manchurian. - One chicken Manchurian.
That's Ramsay!
They deliver it within two minutes for me.
Go, get it.
Don't make me swear.
Open the door.
Swine, born to a buffalo!
Go on, my friend!
That's it? Show me what you have got!
Sister!
Oh.
That's it?
Even the local magi in my town can do that!
Yes, brother.
Brother...
Shall we pray to God?
And?
Or we can call a Hindu priest,
and make him splash Holy Water all over.
She will get scared and run away.
Do you see now?
Why you are just a cook and I'm Ramsay?
Hey, Mariam!
Enough of your wimpy little games.
Okay?
If you really are around... Come out.
Show me your face.
And I'll rip it apart.
Hear me?
Hey, Mariam!
Mariam?
Father finger, father finger; Where are you?
Here I am, here I am; How do you do?
Mother finger, mother finger; Where are you?
Here I am, here I am; How do you do?
Rishi!
You come to sister, dear.
We will be happy.
Rishi!
Want to play a game? Come on!
Dad, it hurts.
Sorry, son.
It's just a game.
Is this fine?
My darling baby!
Lean on your father!
Where are you going, Miss?
Rishi, I'll wait outside.
Why? We can be together!
Where did you bury?
Where did you bury her?
Over there... A big tree near the servant's quarters.
Under it.
Go.
First, burn that body down.
I'll tell you what to do next.
Madam, please!
I'll lay down my life for you.
Just don't ask me to go out.
She will rip me apart.
If I leave, She will take the child away!
See?
She will make him like her.
It's done. - Okay?
I'm so tired.
At least some coffee?
I'll make it myself.
Das. Bring the milk, at least!
Coming, madam.
Cut it open.
I have been so patient.
But you're going overboard.
If you're all that, why didn't you tell me,
you're God when you first came?
We would have left you alone.
But you have fooled innocent young men.
Does this seem fair to you?
But you have made a mistake, God!
Oh, God!
Things were different back then.
Bad men were few in number.
So, you could just come, kill and be on your way.
Times have changed.
Not just me.
Everyone in the world is evil.
And I'm the perfect example of it.
Ramsay!
Ramasamy.
You have many names, too.
You are just one person, though.
But we are...
You live in every particle and every pillar.
But excuse me...
We build the pillars; And blast them in to tiny particles.
But anyway...
Let's play.
Let's go to bed?
You have got school in the morning.
No, let's play.
