Following 'Singadurai' movie release
fans are eagerly waiting for the ready to release 'Garuda' movie.
A one minute fight scene from the movie
was released to the public by Tamil Rockerz.
'Tamil Rockerz crossing limits.'
'Tamil cinema in fear.'
'Tamil Rockerz taking supreme form.'
'The mess that Tamil Rockerz has caused for 'Garuda' movie.'
'What's the back story?'
Is it right or wrong to watch pirated movies online?
Nearly 300 people work in a movie.
Tamil Rockerz steals the labour of these people.
It takes a few minutes to download a movie.
So, it is much better
as compared to going to movies.
As it is free, the people who can't afford it
and are from poor background may find this quite useful.
To make a movie, it takes years of dedication and hard work.
Theatres are not an easy walk away. Parking costs are charged.
And even a water bottle costs 100 Rupees inside the theatre.
Not many go to the movies.
I think cinema industry is already doing great.
It's going to adversely affect their business.
What will someone do when he or she buys a phone for 15-20 thousand rupees?
It happens while using the internet.
What they do is an offence, no doubt.
It is a cyber-crime.
But still..
They make it available for those who can't afford.
Those can't afford can watch it for free.
Moviemakers don't get any money for it.
So it's not great for them to produce a great movie.
And then they don't get anything.
Yes, sir.
I'm getting back to back phone calls.
Hell, we are working our asses off to release the movie on Diwali day.
Struggling without food and water. Burning with uncertainty.
And they will release the movie before its theatrical release, it seems!
Distributors, mediators, theatre owners are calling me up continuously.
What for?
They want to sit down and have talks.
They want to discuss business again.
What's there to talk?
They want us to lower the rates?
Shall we lower the rates and go home nude?
Barani?
What has he said?
I'll watch it, sir.
Sir, producer Mathi had several directors to make movies for him.
I know him better than others.
Sir, he wouldn't provide money or food to his assistants.
We still need to learn a lot from him on how to do free publicity.
What's more, he uploaded the trailer of my movie on YouTube
and looked for publicity for himself.
Crap!
Worse than a dog!
He'll lick my feet like a dog till he gets an opportunity.
After directing and releasing one movie
he'll backstab me eventually.
Either we hang by the hero's feet.
Or we hang by the feet of such useless directors.
I am a producer only for name sake.
Sir.. - What?
I'd told you that my wife needs to undergo an operation.
Hey, I myself am absolutely losing my head over the movie's release and Tamil Rockerz.
Hell, you're bringing your problems to me!
I understand your situation, sir.
I wanted to remind you of it. So I said it.
Okay, okay, I will help you out.
Be a little patient.
First let the movie release.
I'm banking on you, sir.
After the movie becomes a hit and makes good money
with the blessing of Goddess Karpagambal
I'll take care of the expenses. Okay?
Okay, sir.
Don't you dare cross His path!
Hail to the Action Star Aditya!
Don't you dare mess with Him!
Hail to the Action Star Aditya!
Why are they all shouting?
Hey, no.
Don't you dare mess with Him!
Don't lower the window. Raise it.
Wait a moment, it's my son.
Rather than going to college, what are you doing here?
Our star's movie is in trouble. And you want me to go to college?
Warn him.
If he messes up this movie
he will end up in serious trouble.
Do you know what you are saying? I'll rip your mouth out.
What, you'll rip my mouth? - Do you know who you're taking to?
Hey, Kiran, tell your father.. - Don't you dare mess with Him!
Hey, start the vehicle.
Don't you dare mess with him! - Hey.. Our Action Star..
Hey, is that your kid?
Why is he like that?
Sorry, sir. He's just a small kid who doesn't know about you.
Please don't take it to heart.
I don't spend much time at home.
And my wife's unwell.
So no one to give him one-on-one attention.
Your kid is hopeless just like the others kids.
Hey, at least you could've watched the movie till the end.
Not required. Come on, let's just get out of here.
Hey, sorry, Keerthu.
Enough with the apologies.
You won't switch off your phone either.
Have we ever watched any movie till the end?
It's like watching the movies in bits and pieces.
Didn't I tell you on the first day
that you shouldn't marry me for Sathyam theatre and cinema.
Don't talk to me about anything.
Hey, it's a murder case in my division.
I have to go urgently.
I'll drop you on the way.
No need.
I'll just get an auto or cab and go home.
Hey, I'm saying I'll drop you home.
Okay.
I want to see how you solve a murder case. I'll come with you.
I mean, why come there at all?
Why, shouldn't I come?
Like Mr. Mohanlal in 'Drishyam' movie
I might be of use in solving your case.
So you will solve the case using ideas from cinema?
Exactly.
I forgot to tell you.
In a farmhouse in ECR, a man was butchered into pieces.
And thrown away in a gunny bag.
So we've only found his hands and legs.
We're still looking for his severed head.
So we don't know who he is and who the killer is.
I'm on my way to look into that case. Okay, come.
Stop it. You carry on, I won't come.
Why? You said you'd come.
No, I'm not coming. First drop me to home.
So you only like to see violence in movies and not in real life?
All right, if you think so. Let's go.
Hey, there's no gap there. You can't open the door.
Wait here, I'll take the car out.
Hey!
Keerthu!
Hurry up! - Keerthana! - Rudra!
Rudra! - Hey, don't shout!
Keep going.
Dear.. - Hey, shut up!
Hey, let go of me. - He's coming.
Hurry up. - Who are you all?
Rudra!
He's coming, go fast.
Hey! - Rudra.
Dear.
Hey, don't!
Hey.. Rudra..
Rudra..
Hey!
Rudra..
Hi, Rudra. Good morning.
Sir.. Please come in, sir.
Thank you.
I would've come to office if you had called.
If I call you, you hang up angrily.
Or you don't pick up.
That is why I came in person.
Why, shouldn't I come to your house?
Nothing like that, sir.
You've started drinking first thing in the morning?
No, sir. It's yesterday night's.
For now, this is my only company.
Shall I order you some breakfast?
No, no. I'm done with breakfast. Thank you.
Some tea or coffee?
No formalities.
It's okay, sir. Just have green tea at least.
Two minutes. - Okay.
Keerthana was very fond of cinema, right?
It's all about Keerthana.
There is a connection between the case I'm going to discuss and Keerthana.
Yeah, take a look.
On the Dark Web, drug trafficking, gun business..
Human trafficking, particularly girls..
These are the businesses that they run.
Furthermore, we've got a lead that they are funding terrorists.
How's Keerthana connected to this?
At the time of celebrating our second anniversary
it's her first death anniversary.
The van in which Keerthana was kidnapped
exploded after hitting an electric transformer.
And she and the kidnappers died on the spot.
The DNA analysis
was unable to determine the identity of those bodies.
But it confirmed that one of the victims was Keerthana.
Everything ended right there, sir.
We've found the original registration details of the Omni van
that was used to kidnap Keerthana.
It's registered in Goa.
But the owner's got a Tamil name.
Chinnaswamy Muralidharan.
Shortly called Chinna.
He's based in Chennai.
In that blast, Chinna and his gang died.
Finally, information from sources..
Who is this gang? And what is their background?
And what are their sources of fund? After investigating these matters
we got only one clue.
Movie piracy.
In particular, Tamil Rockerz.
One of the 4 people in this photo is the head of Tamil Rockerz.
He calls himself Spyder.
It means a spider.
But all this is unofficial information.
We can't start an investigation based on this.
We have one option though.
'Garuda' movie.
You're going to lead it before its release.
For carrying out an encounter without permission
and for not picking my phone calls
take it as a small punishment.
Sorry, sir.
For not heeding my superior officer's instructions
not just suspend, you can even fire me.
Not only the film industry
the government is also exerting pressure on this issue.
All this is only until the movie releases.
After its release, no one will care about Tamil Rockerz.
This is our only opportunity to find them.
Sir, I don't care about 'Garuda' or any other movie for that matter.
Let Tamil Rockerz do whatever they want.
I am of no use to you in this case.
Revenge is nothing but filling a hunger for grievance.
Consider it food for your loneliness.
I know you very well.
You will take up this case.
That's all I can say.
Action Star Aditya!
Greetings, Mr. Aditya.
Mr. Aditya is training really hard. Is it for his next movie?
First finish off this movie. - I'll take care of it.
'Did Tamil Rockerz leak it?'
'Everyone thinks so.'
'But there is talk going round that Mathiazhagan the movie producer
leaked the movie.'
'Oh, this is some hot news!'
Don't believe all this, sir.
They're trying to create a rift between us
and create content with it and earn money.
They're always looking for content, sir.
The media is full of headlines about this matter.
They're projecting it as Tamil Rockerz versus Aditya, right?
Cinema people are blaming it on you.
What are you even saying, Sathya?
Sir, do you believe him?
I have to believe it, when everyone is talking.
Sir, Action Star is like my son.
Why would I wish bad for our kid?
Suppose I do. Will the fans standing outside
let me leave this place alive?
Sir, I know nothing about the internet or the Tamil Rockerz.
How can you doubt me?
Well, all that aside.
I have an important matter to tell you.
Do you know from whom I borrowed money to finance this movie?
From whom?
Financier Karmegam.
Karmegam? - If one doesn't return money borrowed from him
not only you, but the entire industry knows what he'll do.
Why will I do such a thing when I'm in a risky position?
That's fine. How are we going to stop the Tamil Rockerz?
Sir, you don't worry.
I've prepared a team of our best police officers
to eliminate them completely.
The movie has not gone into their hands, has it?
Sir, they're creating a scene with the opening fight scene.
If they had the movie, they would've released it by now.
I don't know how they recorded it.
But they are planning something.
Okay, let's do this then.
See if you can do something with the help of his fan club.
Carry out the post production works
very carefully with the help of Director Iniyan.
Don't trust anyone.
I get what you're saying.
Not even one frame of our movie will get leaked.
Didn't I tell you about a special team?
We'll do something with them.
Goddess Karpagambal.
Sir, please tell your son to post a tweet
saying that there is no fault of mine in this.
I'll talk with him and tell you.
Sir, I'm not saying this for the sake of it.
You are father to your son and godfather to me.
Greetings, sir. I'll take your leave.
I'll take your leave, Mr. Aditya. - Okay.
Hey, Mohan. What are you doing here?
Dad, I'm studying.
The cans need to be unloaded. Come to the shop.
Dad, I'm studying and clearing doubts with them.
I can't come. Just go.
By feeding you I am making a mistake. Hey, start the vehicle.
What kind of a son are you!
The Action Star has said that
producer Mathi is not at fault.
That's better.
Hey, dude.
Hey, welcome, dude.
Did you go near our idol Aditya's house?
Why didn't you come?
Dude, it looks really nice.
Did you buy it in customs?
Or did you make new friends in the bazaar?
Leave that.
If you want one, I'll buy it for you.
Can you buy me an iPhone?
Subbu, why didn't you take us along while going near our idol's house?
It's nothing, dude.
I couldn't tell you because they said it was urgent.
Hey, dude. It was a whole different scene there.
This Kiran..
Shamed the producer in front of our Action Star Aditya's house.
Wow! - The entire crowd was stunned.
You're next level, bro. - Hey, what have you done?
Wasn't your father there?
Why, I am not afraid of my father.
The producer Mathi fell for my trick.
And fell at our idol's feet asking him to post a tweet.
Oh, that's why this tweet from our idol!
This song is from 'Maayalogam', right?
Well, yesterday you watched the first day first show.
How was the movie? Okay or not okay?
Dude, the movie is a total waste.
But songs and dance are terrific.
That is why I'm listening.
Hey, who is the heroine?
It's my favourite star, the lady lion.
You can watch the movie as many times as you want for her.
Dude, shall we go to the movie tonight?
No, dude.
It will be released on Tamil Rockerz in another two days.
Hey, you say it's a crap movie. Then how will they release it?
Hey, Arun, who the heck are these Tamil Rockerz?
Hell, is there no one who can catch them?
Why the hell are they messing with our idol?
Do they think they're big shots?
How will I know about them?
But one thing is certain.
If they mess with our idol's movie
they'll be dead.
Rightly said. - Yes, dude. - If I catch hold of them, I'll kill them.
The one and only Action Star.. - Aditya!
That's the spirit.
Dude, I've got to take this call.
What, dude? Your friend is taking calls alone.
Shut up, you scoundrel!
Mister, get me two bubble gums.
Hello, tell me, sir. When is the content coming?
Didn't I tell you? I think he's with someone.
Sorry, sir..
Okay, sir..
Are these your relatives, sir?
This place looks like Parry's Corner.
Yes, it's Parry's Corner.
Parry's Corner?
Yes, sir.
This is where the old building of Ragam TV used to be.
My uncle had a shop when I was a kid.
I'd often visit this place.
But it's totally changed now.
Sir, going from crime branch to cyber crime
is like a form of demotion.
They say, it affects one's career.
What do you think?
Not like demotion.
Actually it is demotion.
Why aren't you saying anything?
You talked to me so well on the phone.
You watch movies, don't you?
I'm not that interested in movies.
Why?
Movies talk more bad things about the police than good things.
Even if they say good things
they don't justify it with logic.
I am crazy about movies.
I love horror and thriller movies.
Why?
Because we can't see it in real life.
So that makes watching interesting.
Maybe you don't see it in real life.
But it is happening around us.
And we've been seeing it.
Shall I tell you something?
Government job, neat family..
Beyond all this.. And more than you..
I agreed to this bride-seeing ceremony because you live in Chennai.
Is it so?
Why?
I don't know why.
Beach and late night street food.
To meet Superstar Rajinikanth.
And take a photo with him.
And to watch movies in Sathyam theatre.
It's a little risky to marry me to watch movies in Sathyam theatre.
For who, you or me?
Maybe for both of us.
So are you going to tell my father that you don't like me?
Shall I tell you my decision face to face?
Or shall I tell you over the phone?
Roaming throughout the bazaar enquiring with this photo won't be of any use.
If we bring them to the station and smack them up
they'll spill out the truth.
Then do that.
Arrest a bunch of random guys
and enquire them at the station.
But, sir, on what grounds should we arrest them in the bazaar?
Which case are we working on now?
Anti-piracy.
Then pick them up for possession of illegal DVDs.
Sir, it's a common thing nowadays to sell and watch movies on illegal DVDs.
Everyone is using internet to find download links.
Nelson.. - Yes, sir.
If I have to pick you up for drug case, what should I do?
You just have to dump some drug packets from the station
at my home and in the jeep.
And the rest will take care of itself.
Now how's that connected to this?
Apply the same idea to this.
Sir, it'll end up becoming an issue.
Already the public have bad opinion about us police.
We don't have to get down to it straight.
It's best if we just watch.
Call beach station inspector.
Yes, sir.
No one can be arrested without a warrant.
Just do as I say.
First meet producer Mathi and talk to him.
Do you get it?
Call me after you're done.
Why are you still here?
Sir, everyday many parents like you come here to give complaints.
It's not like movies, where they easily trace location in one day.
There's a process to this. - Sir, it's her.
Ma'am.. - Please understand.
Sir, you are?
He's ACP Rudra, ma'am.
Sir! Welcome, sir. - Hello.
Get the bouquet. - Yes, ma'am.
Sir, would you like some tea or coffee? - No, thanks.
I'm Bhanu, SI of Cyber Cell.
Sir, please..
I'll take it, ma'am.
Where do you keep the files on the Tamil Rockerz?
I have it inside, sir. Please come.
Hey, what are you doing there?
Where is my bag?
I kept it near your table below in your office, sir.
Who asked you to keep it there?
I'll deal with you later.
Hey, don't push.
Don't fall on me.
Give me an 80 Rupees ticket.
Hey.. - Hurry up..
Give me the balance 20 Rupees.
The ticket price is 100 Rupees.
100 Rupees? You can't fool me.
It's printed 80 Rupees on the ticket.
You're saying it's 100 Rupees?
It's an old ticket with the new price sealed on it.
The seal won't count.
Give me my 20 Rupees. I'll go.
You are looting the people.
What did you just say?
All the money goes to the owner.
We don't take a penny.
I don't care where the money ends up.
Give me my 20 Rupees. I'll just go.
Sir, she's talking too much. Please talk to her.
It's the new tax levied by the government.
That's why the extra 20 Rupees.
Please understand.
They won't understand. - There are thieves everywhere now.
Aren't you ashamed to do this?
Move away.
Sir.. - Don't do that.
Useless fellow.
Sir, what is your name?
Yes I will note it down. I will call you after two days.
I will need the case details.
None of the Tamil Rockerz gang has been arrested to date.
Haven't you been able to generate a single lead till now?
Yes, sir, we got a photo.
And..
It's a week already since the photo was forwarded to every department.
There's been no progress till now.
What have you been doing?
Sir, because they do everything on the internet
before we find out where and what they are doing
they escape and move to a different location.
And they bounce their locations easily.
For example, if they're in Alwarpet now
they're in Allahabad after 10 seconds.
And after another 10 seconds, they are traced to Amsterdam.
They keep changing their locations.
They are very well organised.
And extremely efficient.
Sir, even the cyber forensic have
working standards on par with them.
Ma'am, cyber-crime and cyber forensic are one and the same, right?
Sir, are you asking knowingly..
I don't understand.
No, ma'am, I really have this doubt.
Not only me, but even sir..
Has that doubt.
Net banking, cybersex talk, pornography...
Our department's duty is to only register the complaints of such cybercrimes.
The cyber forensic department follow up with the case
collect evidence and solve it.
Don't we have supercomputers
web experts and hackers team in our cyber-crime department?
Supercomputers?
We are only now developing little by little.
We only have these computers.
Yes, okay.
If we get the details, I will let you know.
Check that case. - In case, I don't call
you may call me.
Take the details from him. - I can't give you my personal number.
Okay.
Send that photo to cyber forensic and trace their identity.
Okay, sir. - I won't pick it up.
Where have you been since morning?
Mother ran out of medicines.
Why won't you pick up the phone?
Don't ask.
My idol's movie got into trouble.
That is why we've been roaming since morning.
So I couldn't pick. - It's becoming too hard for mother.
Father is furious.
Why, what's his problem?
I don't know why.
He's been asking for you since he came.
He doesn't have better work.
You rogue! You swine!
Dad, don't hit him.
Mother is sleeping.
Let go of my hand. - Don't make noise, Father.
Hey, you shut up.
Do you know what he did today?
He brought rogues along and threatened Mr. Mathi himself.
How dare you threaten Mr. Mathi!
Dad, please stop.
How dare you!
He's such a big personality.
How dare you threaten him!
Hey, I'll bash you up real hard.
He spent 300 crores to make this movie.
Why are you so worried so much?
I found a job after lot of struggles.
And you're trying to ruin my job? - Please don't shout.
Let go of my hand. - You keep licking him all day.
You dog! Will you listen?
Don't you back talk me!
Just a mere kid.
Hey, stay quiet. - Why are you doing this?
What's wrong with him? - How dare you back talk me.
Are you a big shot? - I will do whatever I want.
Hey, leave me. - Don't come back.
I'll hit you with slippers if you return. Get lost.
Why are you doing this?
Hey, call him back.
Hey!
Have you guys packed everything? - Yes, sir.
Hello! I am the owner of this building.
Who are you all? Which company are you from?
Sir, we're from a TV channel.
Actually I booked online with you.
Yes, yes. I forgot.
Our boss's philosophy is, working in this climate
peacefully without any disturbance helps in relaxing the mind.
And, it won't feel like work.
He's an American.
That is how he thinks.
Okay, come. - Yeah, let's go.
Bring them in. - Okay, sir. - Sure.
You can work here pleasantly.
You can do your job without any disturbance.
Okay, sir. - You can call me
if you want anything. - Okay, sir.
I forgot to ask you. Do you have an ID?
Well, the company will process it for you.
They take care of the legal things.
We like this place very much.
So, I will give you more money than what you had asked as advance.
Okay.
The company will take care of the agreement process.
I've given them your number. They will call you directly.
Sir.. - What? - There's no power.
I even checked the main board.
What, no power? - Sir.
This is forest area.
Power cuts are frequent.
But your website says power backup facility for 24 hours.
Yes, sir. There's a big genset at the back.
But it's an old one.
It uses up fuel like crazy.
Okay, I will tell the filling station attendant
to give you diesel every day.
Now I'll arrange diesel somehow.
I'll see you. You go inside. - Make it fast.
Okay, I'll go and check.
Is the atmosphere good?
Devrar..
Is everything set? - Yes.
Guys, till now we've been in contact separately.
Now we're going to work together in one place.
No one else should know where and what we are doing.
Okay? - Sure, sir.
What project will we be working on?
Daya will tell you the project details once he comes here.
Daya is coming? - Yes.
When is he coming?
Why do you have to know?
I am your friend.
Without telling me
you've gone and asked them for money again.
You could've asked me.
What are you thinking?
You think I struggle for small bucks
and I can't arrange for money.
Correct?
I will give you.
Don't ask me how, but I will give it to you.
Tomorrow morning 10 o'clock the money will reach you.
Instead don't ask that wretch for money.
Cut.
Okay.
How many more are waiting out there?
There are still 8 people waiting.
Sir, how was my acting?
You did well, Daya.
I'll show it to sir when he comes and update you in two days.
Okay, sir.
Sir, selling CD and DVD is just a side-business for me.
I've had a deep interest in acting since childhood.
I want to make it big in the movie industry.
You have to help me out. Please, sir.
No need of recommendation, Daya.
You performed well.
Once sir comes, I'll update you in two days.
Okay? - Okay, sir.
And, sir..
You had asked for the latest movie 'A Beautiful Mind'.
Yes.. - Along with that, here are three new movies.
This month 5. So total 28.
I'll give you the money after I get salary. - That's okay, sir.
See you, sir. - Okay, Daya, I will call you.
Soosai! How are you? - Boss!
So happy. Welcome. - The setup is ready, right?
Teammates, Andey and Ivae. - Hi..
Let me carry your bag.
The parking is on this side. - Okay.
Parry's, bazaar, cinema, people..
Everything has changed here, Daya.
But I haven't changed.
The name of the project is Mathiazhagan presents
Action Star Aditya in 'Garuda'.
Big budget project. 300 crores.
This movie will release on November 4th, on the eve of Diwali.
But we are going to release it 24 hours before its theatrical release.
Our release date is November 3rd.
Okay?
We will receive the content anytime.
Do you get it?
Be prepared. - Sure, sir.
Just upload the file and mark it.
I will tell when to start the projects.
Soosai.. - Okay.
Yes, Daya.
I want all the details of people involved with the 'Garuda' movie.
Can you get it?
