Goa was the homeland
of Konkanis, who belonged to...
Brahmin community and
businessmen by profession
ln 15th century their foundation
was shaken when...
when the Portuguese took over Goa
Devanagiri was forbidden
and Roman script imposed
And with forced religious conversions
the Portuguese turned...
...the peaceful lives of Konkanis into hell
Konkanis soon left their
hometown and started...
...moving out to settle down
in other states
Most of them migrated to the Deccan
To areas like Mangalapuram and Malabar
The Kozhikode King
refused them shelter, but...
...Keshava Rama Varma,
King of Kochi welcomed them
With their own efforts they rose in fields
of trade, commerce and medicine
With a stamp of
their own personality...
...they occupied high posts
and received recognition
Out of the 5 major
sections amongst Konkanis...
...the 1st was the Gowda Saraswada Brahmin
To which belonged the Kamaths
who have their roots...
...entwined with Malayalam,
and is the subject of this narration
A silk saree for my wife
She likes rich red color
An off-white silk veshti
and shirt for my older son
Knee length knickers
and a shirt for my younger son
Looks like you got your
bonus money Kamath?!
My boss gave me enough
After all it's Deepavali festival
Today is Deepavali
Brother, he will buy us crackers
and sparklers, won't he?
Don't expect too much
Hey! Thief! Thief!
We could save his life only because
he was brought here on time
- We are very grateful
- Your gratitude must be expressed to him
What is your name?
Gopi, l saw Muthu snatch
your dad's bag and run
lf you buy me 'Puttu' and beef curry
l will show you who he is
We are Kamath's sons
Gives us back our dad's bag
Get lost! What will you do if l don't?
Bash me up?
Kamaths were not born
to beat, is what our dad taught us
But if you insist on being beaten up...
Hey Gopi!!!
2 cups of strong tea
2 'puttus' and beef curry for our Gopi
Come
ls Kamath in?
Look, your credit
at my provision shop has crossed limits
l need
a payment immediately
l will pay you
Please give me some time
Even if l gave you time
how will you earn?
Without your legs
whatjob can you go for?
l want my money immediately
We will return your
money in a week's time
You?!
We are starting a business
Wonderful! The little Kamaths'
dosa(pancake) tastes great
Very smart boys
What is the name of your shop?
Kamath and Kamath Proprietors
Kamath and Kamath
Biriyani Street Est 1587
Biriyani Paradise
5 biriyani parcels are ready
- Sir...bill
- l did not ask forthe bill
The bill is the only item
given here without asking
Do you know who l am?
No, may be someone out there
might know, but accept the bill first
He is the Counsilor
of this ward Sebastian Kuzhiveli
Shortly will become
Municipal Chairman
He's a new recruit,
excuse him
What a fantastic biriyani
Sahib, the biriyani here is unbeatable
Tell me, is the mutton used in this
belong to meat of buffalo or ox?
To the elephant!!!
Kuzhiveli, the secret
of our biriyani is...
...the tender meat of
goat less than 6 months old
Along with it
the Lords mercy too
Each time biriyani is cooked
there are butterflies in my stomach
l just close my eyes
and call out Almighty my Lord'!
A small error and my business
is finished forever isn't it?
Look at that hotel
What a flourishing place it was!
A bit of carelessness
Served old food, resulted in poisoning
Municipality ordered it to be shut down
and applied seal on it, isn't it?
Yes indeed!
Don't forget the past, dear Sahib
Do you remember my efforts to get it sealed?
l have bought you a brand new
Maruthi car in return, don't forget that
Where is your car?
lts parked almost a kilometer away
You don't have parking facility here, right?
Now-a-days parking
facility is a must
That Thirumeni's place
will accommodate 30 vehicles
lt's really a pity
you are unable to buy so far
That Thirumeni refuses
to part with it
l have asked a hundred times
But he doesn't budge
He will come around one day
l had a specific motive when l lent him
Rs 10 lakhs for his daughter's wedding
l consider it as an amount
paid in advance forthis property
Thirumeni's younger
daughter's wedding is also fixed
How can he bear the expenses
without selling this property?
Why don't you go try
to clinch a deal for me?
ln place of your Maruthi,
l'll see that a Benz stands
Benz car!
- Namasthey!
- What brings you here, Kuzhiveli?
Well, there's a wedding in your house
As counsilor, l thought l'll just enquire
Why? Has the government arranged
to give financial assistance for weddings?
lf you only make up your mind
is it so difficult to raise funds?
What l am trying to say is...
Don't bother, l understand
what you are getting at
lts true that circumstances forced
me to shut down my hotel
But l will not give it up to followers
of another religion to cook his meat
l will not have fish and meat
anywhere in the vicinity of my place
The temple pond you have your daily dip
Doesn't it have fish in it?
Yes of course
You can use water from ponds
and rivers with live fish and...
...use milk from cows which is
a part of theirflesh and blood
But that does not affect your sense
of sanctity and cleanliness, right?
- Hey Nair?
- Yes sir?.
- Throw this dirty fellow out
- Not necessary, l will go
But remember, don't
cross swords with Sulaiman Sahib
He has helped you with Rs 10 lakhs
for your elder daughter's wedding
You did not think touching his money
was sacrilege then
He has not asked you
to return that money...
...because he intends
to own your property one day
l am going now
But l will see you
if your daughter gets married...
...even if l am not invited!
Did you hear
his underlying threat, Nair?
My daughter's marriage
won't take place it seems
The whole town knows
l don't have money
Lord! What more should l hear!
Frankly, what does it matter
who buys the place?
lsn't it enough if you
get a good price?
Have you also forgotten
the idol of baby Ganapathy there?
l have performed puja to that idol
ever since l can remember
Just a clean-up and a lamp lit
HE will bless me whole heartedly
What will an alien religion
do with Lord Ganapathy?
Dad, come here
What is it my dear?
Dad, Devan sir's
e-mail has come
- ls it?
- What?
Mail, now-a-days this is what
takes the place of letter writing
Haven't l told you about a Kamath
who was her senior in college?
Oh! Kamath
What was his reply my dear?
l had written in detail
about our situation
He said he'll come
and meet us directly
Lord Vighneshwara!
You have saved us
Today, in whole of
Kerala, they own big hotels
This Kamath and
his brother Kamath
Proprietors
Kamath and Kamath
lf they take over
our hotel we are saved
Who are you?
What do you want?
Sulaiman Sahib sent us here
He has asked you
to sign this agreement
What is it?
Appears to be in English
Give it to me father
Let me read it
This is a lease agreement
for our hotel and land
lt shows an advance
received for Rs 10 lakhs
lt is true that
l owe Sahib Rs 10 lakhs
But l don't understand
this agreement
ls it right to accept money
and not sign an agreement?
lf you don't sign
we may have to use force
Well, l'd like to see you do that!
- Then come here!
- No! Don't!
Lord Venkatpathy!
What are 'we' seeing here?
A thrashing session!?
All that is of no use
We can always talk things over
Who are you?
We? l am 'we'
Don't you understand?
Didn't 'we' just arrive
by car now?
'We' means, son of
Krishnarajakudi Kamath...
...Devaraja Kamath
Now you?,
Tell me what is the issue?
- We are Sulaiman Sahib's men
- ls that the issue?
No!
Don't botherto explain
l have understood the situation
lt's a problem of Rs 10 lakhs right?
'We' will pay you that money
Murthy?
Fold that umbrella, Murthy! Useless!
How long since
you borrowed this money?
About a year and half
Let them calculate
rate of interest for 2 years
That makes it
Rs 1209999.85
Murthy we round it up to 1210000
You get 15 paisa more
We spend so much on trivialities
Let them go eat it
Murthy!
Don't shake, the table is wobbling
Without shaking!
You can go give this to Sahib
We came to get the agreement signed
You better do what we ask, Thirumeni
Thirumeni will not do it
- You don't interfere
- Of course l will
l will interfere even more
Beat and drive him away
The stinker!
Not stinker, its Kamath
DevarajaKamath
Don't beat me
We Kamaths are
fond of peace
Have no history of wars and
follow non violence
But if all of you insist
on a thrashing...Murthy?!
lf l just press this, your heads
will break and you will die
You will die but l won't go to jail
l have money and power
You can decide whether
you want your life or the agreement
We want our lives
Only our lives!
With the cash
Murthy please take their
names address and photo
lf we ever have a problem
never call them!
-All are cowards!
- Run for it!
Thirumeni, were you scared?
This does not have bullets
All the bullets are
with my brother Kamath
He refuses to give them to me
But he has only the bullets
No gun
The gun is with me right?
Only a bullet will allow
the gun to fire, right?
ln short we never fire guns!
Karthiyayini, give him
some buttermilk to drink
l want nothing
l just want to see
that place the property
My dear go with him
BlRlYANl STREE Once we open our shop
within 3 months, this name will go
lt will become
Kamath & Kamath Street
That's the usual blessing
Sree Krishna Vilasam
East facing...very auspicious
Lord Ganapathy
is the God installed, right?
ls that guy who is peeping
out of that counter, the Sahib?
Yes
Nice fair and an enemy
like a beautiful pudding
Come sir, don't you want
to see inside of the shop?
Sure let's go
Why are you staring like this?
- Your wedding has really been fixed right?
- Yes, but why?
l feel quite sad
You were once
like a broomstick
Now grown big, you look
like a lovely witch
lf l had known this l would have
declared my love for you...
...and blocked you for myself
Now it's of no use
-Anyways l like you very much
- What?
Not you!
lt has gone out of my hands
This property, good
that you thought of us...
...when you decided
to sell it
We'll take over
this place happily
That Kamath has
given you the works
How can his dosa and sambhar
compete with our biriyani?
lt can't happen
What are you saying Sahib?
This is their 33rd hotel
Wherever they start one, there is
a queue like in beverages shops
l myself fell for it once
l stood in the queue
and found it was Kamaths hotel
Kuzhiveli, l can't tolerate
another hotel in front of ours
Kamaths must not
open their hotel
Tell me a way to sabotage it
like you did for Thirumeni's hotel
The municipal secretary is not the same
Now it's a lady, Mahalakshmi
- You may have to shell out some money
-Allah! Does that lady accept bribe?
She will not, but l will
lt will be difficult to subdue her
She's a man-hater
People say she's frustrated
because she's spinster even now
Municipal office
Secretary
The guy who is sitting there
is Kamath, a womanizer
Don't talk, if you do, even
a secretary like you, will fall for him
The municipal secretary has come
He will try to persuade you
But don't give in
Greetings, l am Kamath
Devaraja Kamath, partner
of Kamath & Kamath Hotels
Should we stand
on our heads for that?
- You can stand
- Sure l will
Madam, its 3 days
since l have been...
...climbing up...climbing down
like this to meet you
But it appears you were on leave
When l heard Secretary
was a woman
l thought she'd be
in her early 50s
But so young!
Excuse me?
Which college are you studying in,
is what any one will ask
-Are you married?
- What if l am?
- What does your husband do?
- What should he do?
Children?
Children without getting married?
Madam he is insulting you
Oh Lord Venkatpathy
Aren't you married?
l too am not
Same pinch
He's mad!
You go inside madam
- Hey wait!
- What is your problem?
What about the license
for our hotel?
Have you taken
prior appointment?
No!
- Then you will have to wait
- But l was waiting all of morning
- Was l not right?
-About what?
That he's a womanizer?
He has an older brother,
Rajaraja Kamath
Rumors say he kicked
his wife to her death
So never issue them the license
Do we issue licenses
based on conduct certificate?
4-5 years back the Health dept
and Food corp...
...shut down and sealed
the old hotel Sree Krishna Vilas
Now they have changed
the name to Kamath & Kamath...
...and applied for license
The case is still pending
Madam, don't get into trouble
He is trying to get a license
without your knowledge from the Council
Can you take a step
without the council's approval?
You can't
So you have to bring it
to their notice
Let me look at that file
- Madam, it will soon be lunch break
- Who asked you to come in here?
Don't spit into my eyes
l don't have time to spare
Monday is the hotel inauguration
lnauguration without a license
lsn't that why
an application was given?
Yourfile needs thorough scrutiny
You can go and return next week
Please don't say that
We can't change the inaugural day
Who asked you to fix the day
without your license permitted?
My older brother Rajaraja Kamath
Madam, you would not know him
He looks like
our mega star Mammootty
And just like him
he is very short-tempered
lf he loves he is a Royal gem
lf you cross him he's the king of thugs
The rest of it
l am not willing to say
l have no orders
to issue the license
You may please leave now
So you will not
issue us the license eh?
No!
Just a minute, okay?
- Hey! Don't shoot
- This is a phone
Annu(brother)
they are not issuing the license
This is not Malayalam
lt is Urdu
He says shall he try hooking you
Don't mind all that
- Okay Annu(brother)
- Like a karate class!
That was my brother
He said ask that arrogant secretary
to go climb the wall!!!
He said just one snap of his fingers
and the municipal chairman...
...will come to the hotel premises
and issue the license
Do you know who are talking to?
- l told brother about you also
-And what did he say?
He asked me not to deal with you,
lt was an order
- He said to keep you aside
- Why?
So that he'll have the pleasure
of thrashing you all by himself
Thrashing me!
So the day has been fixed for Monday
And the 1st invite is for you madam
You have to come,
participate and bless us
We are specially
not inviting you at all
- Don't come
- No, l wont!
Did you see him madam?
His arrogance
l want to see how he will
inaugurate this hotel without a license
Kamaths are inaugurating it
challenging municipality orders
But Municipal secretary
is very stubborn
Although a woman, she appears to be fiery
The police will stop this event
Did you see that board?
One Kamath is green
and the other is red
The red one is dangerous
They must be having
something up their sleeve
On the day of inauguration
if the older Kamath does not arrive...
...we can be sure it won't take place
l will see to it he does not
step into this Palakkad district
Kamath will be punched
and broken into bits...
...and admitted in hospital
by my smart boys, Sahib
Let him come
This Rajaraja Kamath!
- ls Rajaraja Kamath inside the vehicle
- What if he is?
-Ask him to come out!
- Why must he, l wonder?.!
To give him some of our affection
Oh is it? lt's been ages
since the body had some exercise
l'll call him right away
Boss!
Okay, so who are all of you?
l have no clue
Lord! What's this an array of knives?
You have come to thrash us, right?
Yes
So we have enemies in Palakkad
You have come to beat us
but we generally don't beat up thugs
For that we feed meat of goat
ox, fowl, tiger etc and maintain a buffalo
Do you want to know who he is?
- Who?
- Who else can it be?
This is him
His name is Gopi
He delivers very good punches
Try him, it's a good chance
Gopi, just beat them
but don't kill okay
Gopi, come on start!
Get up and come here
What did you think?
That if you defeat him you can come
and fight with me? Foolish fellow
Forget that desire
l don't use my fists on such
cheap and stupid fellows
Okay, now tell me who sent you here?
Come on simply tell me l say!
Out with it you...!
- Greetings
- Please come
Hello...check...hello
For accepting our invite my brother
and l extend a hearty welcome to...
...the Municipal Secretary,
Chairman and all policemen
lnspector!
You can't open a hotel
without a Municipal license
You have broken the law
so a case will be charged
Who has broken the law here?
ls a license necessary to inaugurate
a place at an auspicious moment?
No my dear policemen
You can accuse us...
...of breaking law
only if we cook and sell food
We have not done that
So under which section are we charged?
Tell me policemen
Hey! Ask him to explain
Don't teach policemen law and sections
This hotel which was under
municipal seal was reopened...
...so, Thirumeni has to be arrested first
Get into thejeep
- But what crime did l commit?
- We can decide all that at the station
But that will not do sir
lt has to b e decided here
This property is now in our names
We changed ownership at the municipality
- You Kazhuveli(swear word)...!
- Not Kazhveli...l am Kuzhiveli
Whatever Vayyaveli(headache) you may be
You can also examine it, if you want
Accepting money and harassing
people is bad, isn't it policeman?
What will you do if l did?
Just try it
l will flatten you like a dosa
You dare insult policemen
One minute!
All who've been waiting to see my brother
Rajaraja Kamath, he has just arrived
My humble greetings
to all townsfolk here
An unexpected attack the minute
l stepped into Palakkad district
Anyone will react when provoked
So l also reacted in a small way
Gopi!
Brother, who are these fellows?
Brother, l bet you didn't
touch them, right?
How did you know that?
They wouldn't be here alive
Won't they be dead by now? Dead!!!
Gopi?
What were their names?
The ones who sent these thugs?
Sulaiman sahib and Kuzhiveli
lf these gentlemen are here
please come forward
These guys need a lot of money
to treat their injuries
Please come forward one by one
Hey come here
Come and get them l say!
- Who is this Kuzhiveli?
- Look there, that's him
Sir!
Don't come to me
Keep away!
Sir
Hey! All policemen too are here
for the opening, we're so fortunate
Not only policemen
Municipality members too
He is the Municipal Chairman
She is the secretary, Mahalakshmi
She looks like her namesake
Goddess Mahalakshmi
But her heart is like Kali(violent)
Goddess Bhadrakali
My dear Bhadrakali...
l'm sorry secretary sir
We are not stupid to open
a hotel without license
You have not issued us a license
There is a Council above you
There is a section to issue it
Above that there is the court
What did you think of us?
This Kamaths' is big enterprise
Lord Venkatpathi!
You must realize, there's not a single
MLA, MP or Panchayath president...
...who has not tasted our Dosa
We met the Minister
and he issued us the license
This is the license and a copy
has been sent to your office
You can look at it
Look! Look! Properly!
Look at it closely
Lovely like a paper roast dosa!
Brother! The auspicious
moment is passing
We shall perform
the inauguration immediately
Okay

- Greetings sir
- Aren't you the thief Pathrose?
- Yes

That is our target
Raja, someone's sitting
on the wall of our neighbors house
May be a thief
That is our municipal secretary's house
Arrogant woman! Let her suffer
Suppose something happens? Go and see
Go!
- He jumped
- Shout out
lf l shout he'll escape
Sister!
- What was that noise?
- Someone threw a stone
l did notice a guy sitting on the wall
when l went to the bathroom
Why didn't you say this earlier?
l thought he was just taking
a peek at me in the shower
Who are you?
Don't run!
Hey thief!
Thief!
- l'll break your head with this
- Kamath!
Hello
Police station?
What is it madam?
That Kamath next door

He is somewhere around here
- Go and look for him
- Get down you...!
Okay l give up
Sir, he is thief Pathrose
He is the one who threw the stone
Oh! lt's like that now!
Sir, it wasn't like that
lt was Kamath who threw the stone
lf you lie l'll kick
that bald head and break it
Sir, l saw this Kamath
throwing the stone
First ask this guy
why he was here
l came to rob the house
l did you a favour
You have to realize that madam
Enough!
Go get into the Jeep
Yes, go get into the jeep you thief
- You also go man!
- He is the thief not me
l want the side seat
Get in!
There is no rule to turn
the witness into an accused
Don't teach me the law
Just get in
Sit here
Get out
Come, put out your right foot
auspiciously and get out
- Brother!

They put me in jail
Why have you put him here?
We were forced to arrest him
For illegal sale of liquor
Come! Come!

We can sit later
Move aside

- What is the problem sir?
You supply liquor on a dry day, right?

Oh Lord Venkatpathy!
We have not served this
lt was brought from outside
No sir, we bought this here
And paid double the price for it!
How dare you lie, you drunkards!
Come with us!
Sir, this is cheating!
You need not snarl here
Convince the court you were not
Sir we got all this from here
Oh so you have a wholesale
business going on, eh?
What is all this?
Policemen! We have not sold liquor here
We are arresting the junior Kamath
for illegal sale of liquor, now go
Sir, don't push!
What's the charge against this chap?
Attacked the municipal secretary's house
Accomplice is thief Pathrose
This is great!
Tomorrow the papers
can carry this juicy news
Let the Kamath pair be locked up here
Rajashekhar, pick one out of
the 'evidences' and place it inside
lf l have to deal with the Kamaths
l have to have drink a couple of pegs
Hey you! lf either of my boss is touched
l'll kill you and your entire family
To me earth is home and sky the roof
Whether l am outside or in central jail
lt was around 10 at night
my house was attacked
Thief Pathrose has given
a statement in support
The fact that illegal sale
of liquor occurred...
...in my ward makes me feel ashamed
As president of Hotels association
What do you have to say?
This is a matter of shame for all of us
Our Association has
decided that the other...
...Kamath hotels too
have to be shut down, right?
What is the charge
against the Kamaths?
Sir, this is the charge sheet
- Kamath?
- Greetings
Send them to my room
Our greetings
What's all this guys?
l can't stand by you in such cases
Sir, please don't say that
We Kamaths are
Gowda Saraswath Brahmins
We neither utter lies nor sell liquor
This is a trap
We don't go peeing over walls
Someone laid a trap and we fell in it
That may be true
But evidences are against you
The thief Pathrose is very
adamant in his statement
He is a cunning thief
You just have to roll your eyes
and he'll come out with the truth
Just give him the works sir
He'll tell the truth
Go!
-Aren't you a true Christian?
- No, l am thief Pathrose
lf you don't tell me the truth
you'll go to hell
Tell me honestly, who threw
the stone at the secretary's house?
- This Kamath, sir
- Did you hear that?
Oh God Venkatpathy!
Aren't you a Dy SP?
ls this how you interrogate robbers?
They will never own up like this
There are other means for this
lt's better you tell the truth
Otherwise your brain will scatter
Don't wait, just do it
Look at him and his bald head!
lf l shoot, you'll have
to walk about without a head
Hey stop it
l'll lose my job
Stop it! Don't beat me
l'll tell you everything
This fellow is more scared
of punches than a gun shot
- l'll flog you death
- No! l'll tell you the whole truth
Sir, give me your phone
Oh you are going to shoot, eh?
Let me spruce up myself
Who sent you here?
Just blurt it out like a parrot,
it will be great
- Sulaiman sahib paid money and he..
- What is all this?
- You asked me to say it like a parrot
- Oh Lord Venkatpathi
- Who threw the stone?
- Okay l'll tell everything
To help Sulaiman Sahib
Councilor Kuzhiveli sir paid me
l was asked to hang around
and wait till the police came
And when the police get me
to say Kamaths name
l waited near the secretary's
house for 3-4 days...
...to get the attention of
Kamath sir, l swear
- He is a sensible thief
- Continue l say!
l will fight forjustice against this
atrocity in a house where only women lived
Sorry, madam
The case has taken a new angle
This is thief Pathrose
stating the truth
lt was l who threw the stone
l did it
For Sulaiman sir
Councillor Kuzhiveli sir paid me
He asked me to wait there
and tell Kamaths name when questioned
Now do you realize
who threw the stone?
Honorable Councillor and Sulaiman sir
Please come forward
We have something to show you
Gopi!
Bring it here
These are scenes of CCTV cameras
of our hotel that record events 24 hours
Show it to them
lsn't this proof?.
This is from the camera outside
There are cameras inside also
Gopi! Wait
Don't, they will be
taken care of by the policemen
l have reserved some for you also
Secretary madam,
l have something to tell you
l have no enmity towards you
lf l did, l'd have clapped happily
when he threw the stone
lt was my mother
who asked me to help you
When the police took us away
There were tears in her eyes
You are answerable to those tears
Not to me, but to God
You can go madam
Sulaiman sahib, what harm
did we do to you?
We have only dosa, idly
and sambhar in our menu
But you Muslims
you have a variety of food
Biriyani, ghee rice, Pathiri,
mutton curry and so many more
No other community can claim them
People of other communities crowd
into lslam hotels that are run honestly
They do come willingly
and you know it very well
Let people who eat biriyani for 10 days
eat dosa for one day, just for a change
Sahib, your Thalassery biriyani
will not match our dosa, isn't it?
Moreover, Thirumeni refused
to sell that property to you...
...not out of enmity but the presence
of the ldol of Lord Ganapathy
He believes other religions
will not give it due respect,...
...so he preferred selling it to us
lsn't that correct?
He's a simple man
lf you had asked us space
to park vehicles for your customers...
...we would have given it
But did you ask?
No
Even after harassing us
we are still ready to offer...
...our place for your customers
to park their vehicles
Let people then decide whether
they want to eat biriyani or dosa
Your ancestors once
gave us refuge in this land
We only have one request
Don't hate us
l forgot to mention this
We'll be gone from here for 2 days
Forthe inauguration
of our new hotel at Coimbatore
Please see our hotel
does not run into troubles
ln the name of Almighty
don't talk like this
l realize my mistake
You can go with a free mind
l will look after it like my own hotel
ls the Coimbatore hotel also
to be opened by 2 of you?
No! Of course not!
We will have a celebration in Tamil Nadu
The inauguration there
will be by a film star
Super star Danush
Thanks for coming
Please come
Greetings to everyone
My most beloved

the wonderful taste of our dosas
We are bringing that taste

Even if you have a hundred dosas
it will seem like you've had just one dosa
Very happy
lt's Tamil
But we gave it in Malayalam
That's because you are
speaking in Malayalam

We'll start singing the song, Kolaveri...
Kolaveri' kolaveri di

Please go carefully
A man like ghee roast(dosa)
With insides like laddu(sweet)
Respected municipal secretary come out

Will you give up Surekha or not?
We have not kept her

You can't make such lame
excuses any more

Put her into the vehicle guys

And there are thugs after her also
- What happened madam?

No one will help you
l will take her or kill her
And if you resist, you also
Come
Who are you?
What is the matter?
By passers need not interfere
This is a family matter
lf its family it should be
inside the house not on roads
Moreover, whether friend or enemy
lf a person asks help, we give it
Thrash this fellow, guys!
Gopi!
You can begin!
- Do you have your driver with you?
- No, they beat and chased him away
- Where are you going?
- To Palakkad
lf you don't mind you can travel with me
Gopi can bring your car
Are you afraid of me?
Don't be, l am very decent
You can get in
Gopi, after you finish bring
madam's carto Palakkad
Okay boss, you carry on
This will be over soon
Who are they?
Why are they harassing you?
Why do they want to kill?
- My sister

You are from Coimbatore, right?
Who do you have at home?
Only my mother and sister
- You are not married right?
- No
- Why are you not married?
- Circumstances
- Family problems
- l am very hungry
l have not eaten and we will reach
Palakkad quite late in the night
You must have eaten at home
before you started yourjourney, right?
No
lf you don't mind, let's stop
and eat at some hotel
lf you do mind, you can stay hungry
l shall go and appease my hunger
So you don't mind, eh?
Okay!
l am a pure vegetarian
lt's a meal full of vegetables
1 vegetable soup, a vegetable fried rice
Gobi Manchurian, 2 chappathis...
...vegetable curry and a vegetable salad
That will do
l am on a diet
You have not yet ordered
We get good mutton,
chicken and beef
- l am also a vegetarian
- But you talk like a meat eater
Go ahead
Order your food
l'll have just curd rice
What a surprise!
How come you're here?
- Came to have dinner
- We are on our way to Tirupathi
He is Mr Raja, Rajaraja Kamath
You have not introduced him to me
Sorry! He is my husband
Telugu speaking person
- Greetings
- Hi
Who is this?
Your wife?
No, a friend
Oh sorry! See you Mr Kamath,
Bye, take care
- Wish you all the best
- Thank you
- Who were they?
- Who?
Those people we met
at the restaurant
- My wife
- What?!
My wife
She used to be my wife
- Now?
- Now she's not
Why did you part?
The Lord did not give me
enough patience and endurance
We had to break up so we parted
That's all
What are you staring for?
You are talking about
the divorce so casually
That's a long story
lt was with great difficulty
we became prosperous
We lived a very simple life
We were very happy
and loved each other very much
Radhika, that is my wife's name
Her parents are in London
She was educated there
and that's why...
...she could not get along
with our way of life
My mother loved her a lot
My dear, we don't wear
such clothes in ourfamily
l will decide what l wear
Nobody need interfere
- My dear!
- Get lost you old hag!
Nuisance
No one told me anything
Because they didn't want to upset me
One day we were returning
after a business trip from Kozhikode
Dad suffered a chest pain
Sumanthi!
What happened to you?
My dear, the boys' father
is suffering from chest pain
We have to take him
to the hospital right now
Please take the car out
Can't you see l have applied 'mehendi'?
Call a taxi from outside
That will take a long time, dear
Just wash your hands and come
That will take a long time, dear
Just wash your hands and come
Don't harass me
Go away
By the time a taxi came and
took him to hospital, everything was over
You were responsible
for our father's death
l am not a servant
in your house or a driver
And l'm not nurse maid
to your parents
lt would have been very convenient
if that old hag had died too
l gave her a good slap
And she broke the sacred wedding chain
l have not felt any regret
or loss after that
- Sorry
- For what?
lt's high time they reached
May be they have decided
to halt over at a hotel
Hey! My boss will not even look at a girl
-Anyway l will not sleep here alone
- What else can you do?
Oh look! They have reached
- Okay goodnight
- Goodnight
Why do you prepare
so many dishes?
A few ldlys sambhar and a chutney
isn't that more than enough?
Who prepared this?
Definitely not you, mother
Mother will never make
such tasteless food
This tea is totally
unpalatable, no taste at all
Maybe Gopi has made all this
Gopi?!
l only know to eat not to cook
But l'll tell you for sure, this food
has come from the enemy's camp
Enemy's camp?
What are you saying?
Have you gone nuts?
l'll eat at our hotel
Don't say anything more
Food was made by girls next door
Who?
Mahalakshmi?
Don't eat it
if you didn't like it
- Who says l didn't like it
- But you said so just now
l often say such things
to tease mother
l try to make mother
laugh now and then
Yes true! Boss told me
ajoke and l laughed...
...for 2 weeks and
1 more week remains
Ass-monkey! Go out
Mom has never allowed me
into the kitchen
So l am a little backward in cooking
But not backward in talking!
No one can beat you brothers in that
Ass-monkey! Are you still here?
Vagabond!
Tell me when you are free
l'll teach you to cook,
it will be great fun
Okay, treat it as ajoke
Both of you sit and talk
l must leave, okay?
She wants to talk to you
What is the matter?
She is asking for some help
What help do you want, tell me
Can you come
with me to Coimbatore?
-As a bodyguard, eh?
- Not at all
My sister has a problem
and we need a man to solve it
We don't have many relatives
who would be able to help
Don't come if it's a problem for you
l'll come
The house is good
ls it your own place?
No, it's for rent
Come in
She's my mother, Maheshwari
Greetings, mother!
-And she is...
- l know the servant
Not servant...manager
l manage the kitchen here
Kitchen manager?.
Not bad
When did this item
transfer itself from Palakkad?
l am not an item, my name is Shanta
l sent her here 2 days
back to help mother
You did not introduce me
l am Rajaraja Kamath
- You look very familiar
- You will!
l am very famous
People have a very good opinion about me
Please come
Where is the sister
you mentioned?
She's just on her way
back from office
- Which office?
- lncome tax Department
lncome tax?
That is to be feared
- Shanta get them something to drink
- Hot or cool?
- What?
- Tea or limejuice?
A super coffee will do
What snacks shall l make?
Just allow me into the kitchen
l'll make some Kamath special items
-Are you interested?
- Sure why not
So manager tell me
where the kitchen is
Over there
All ready! You can come
So many dishes in such a short time?
Hats off to you!
People of Kerala
call me a lion in cooking
When your sister comes
don't tell her l prepared all these
Tell her you made them
You can take the credit
- Look, Rekha has come
- l will stand away
lt's very tasty, right?
To tell you the truth
lt was l who made all of it
Do you recognize me?
l am Rajaraja Kamath
She will not recognize you like that
He is the person your sister
said was SP Kamath
Who is SP Kamath?
Don't you know?
People call you SP Kamath
Self Praising Kamath
Oh! lf no one talks about me
l will do it myself, what's wrong in that?
Even if you call me
SP Kamath, l have no issues
Now eat it my dear girl
Take a dosa, a little chutney
and make it into little balls...
...and then eat them
lt will be delicious!
Now let us come to the matter
What is your sister's problem?
She is worried for some time
She is being shadowed
But nobody is seen
visibly following her
ln the bus, bus stop someone
is behind her all the time
That guy who waylaid you
on the highway
Was it forthis sister
he created that issue?
- Yes!
- Then have no doubts
lt's them for sure
Have you given a police complaint?
We did, but they appear
to have influence over the police
Who are they?
How are they related to you?
lf you find it difficult
to tell me, then don't tell
Hey! Stop there
Stop!
Gopi
lf l get my hands on you
- Gopi, what is it?
- Who is it?
Some guy was hiding near the gate
When l asked he replied
in Hindi and ran away
He looks a little fishy
Both of them are very scared
There is no need to be scared
We can easily handle this
We have a place
to stay in this city
But is it right to leave
them alone here?
lt's not at all right
- lf you don't mind, you can use that room
- Boss you can sleep there
- Gopi can sleep in my room
- Sure
- What about you?
- l will sleep with mother
Then l'll sleep in the car
- Shall we go?
- First we'll plan our action
When does this fellow
usually follow your sister?
Wasn't it at the bus stop yesterday?
On a bike wearing a helmet
Let her go as usual to the bus stop
We will follow about
30 ft behind, very quietly
Okay sister! You go
walking as usual
Gopi, this is him
lf l handle him, he will die
l want him alive
So you go
Okay, boss
Going after girls and
harassing them you rascal?!
Kamath vs Kamath
Deva! You!
Brother, l...
What the heck were you up to?
-Answer me
- No! Please don't boss!
You hit my brother
l've not used even a broomstick on him
Today l hit him
Brother you have to forgive me
l committed a mistake
l did not come to kill
l just came to declare my love
l like that girl
Girls have to be brought up
with restraint and sense of honor
They should have self respect
lf they make eyes and entice boys...
...they will come after you
What's wrong in that?
Hey! Better talk with respect, okay?
l know the kind of person you are...
...l mean you don't know who l am
Teaching me manners eh?
- Brother! Stop talking like this
- You stay out of this
The great municipal secretary
lf you governed your home
like you did the municipality,...
...will she have become like this?
You!
lf your sister is important to you
My brother is for me
Whatever the mistake he commits
l will forgive him
- Brother!
- You be quiet!
Didn't you know it was my brother...
...who was going after
this rat tail sister of yours?
You hid that fact and made me hit him
You tried to separate us
l kicked him
You demoness
lf ever l see you or yourfamily
anywhere near my house again...!
You Kamath!
l trusted you!
But you used your brother
as a bait to get even with me, right?
Forthis you will suffer
Yes! We will see
who is going to suffer
Let us see
- Come guys
- Come my girl
Boss, give me also a massage
l'll give you a good kick
that will kill you
Do you see this?
These are marks of injury
You and your punches
l will have to massage him
for a month at least...
...only these marks will go, poor thing!
All this body pain is not a problem
l am feeling bad
that you were insulted
l shouldn't have hit you
l feel so bad kicking you
lt was not deliberate done brother
lsn't it for the sake of
that Municipal secretary?
What are you saying?
Have you gone mad?
What language
are you speaking?
- You didn't understand, right?
- No!
Well, from childhood,
this is my condition...
...Sheer gibberish
when l hear both of you talk
Get lost, you ass monkey
This is between us brothers
Don't poke your nose into this
Don't kill yourself inviting my kick okay?
But l too got a taste of
his blows, right?
Eats only vegetables, but his blows
painful like being hit by a hammer
l still don't believe you were
the killer stalking that girl
l am not a killer, brother
lt is true l followed her
But doesn't a girl recognize...
...whether a guy
follows her to kill or to love?
This is the first time
l am going after a girl, l swear
There are so many girls
in this world
l am surprised
why you love only this one?
There are so many
wonderful buildings all overthe world
Yet, tell me, why is only
the Taj Mahal a world wonder?
- Tell me l say
- l don't understand it myself
Gopi! There are
so many kinds of meat
Yet you like the taste of only beef, why?
Hey! Now l understand
- But does the buffalo know it?
- Definitely not
So many girls come to our hotel
But why did l
notice (throw up) only her?.
Throw up! Sure if she had
you'd have been in trouble by now!
You will die with my kick now
Why did l note only her especially?
- Why?
- You tell me
- You tell us
- l will tell you
Thank you, sister
- Mom
- Thanks
God bless you!
So beautiful
l just wondered for a minute
lf l was that child l would get a kiss, hmm?
What is all this?
Give it to me
My first kiss
l am not going to give up
You are malayali, right?
Help!
Did you see what happened here?
What is he saying?
Did you see those thugs?
Husband and wife
both are dumb, eh?
Go, go!
Escaped pretending to be
dumb just like l did, eh?
Thank me for giving you this idea
Don't go away like this, without saying it
l will also come
On the way we can...
May l come in?
l have come to clear some
doubts, regarding love tax
l was living, minding my business when
a girl made me fall and gave me a kiss
Should l pay a service tax for this?
lf l feel l want more such kisses
Will that tax carry interest?
A lot of love has
accumulated in the heart
lt grew and grew into
a spreading bower ofjasmine
How much of a love growth tax
has to be paid forthis?
l like you very much
Shall l go to your house
and propose marriage ?
How much protection tax has to be paid?
Excuse me?
May l help you?
No! No! No!
Only this girl can help me
She is not answering
any of my questions
l will answer your questions
Give me your file
l will give this file only to her
She can answer me
She will not talk my dearfellow
l will make her talk
Attender!
Please throw this guy out
No one has to push me out
l know how to go
- Does this carry interest?
- Hey you!
Like this, in spite of many efforts
she never bothered
l realized my looks
and style were old fashioned
l changed over and became
a smart young man
l thought l'll try once more
and that's when you saw me
Why do we need
a woman between us?
You for me and l for you
lsn't that enough?
We are brothers
Shouldn't our lineage continue?
Deva, we are enough for each other
Shouldn't we have children?
You don't have a wife forthat
lf l also don't try, who will perform
the last rites when we die?
l am there for you
How will you be there?
Won't someone kill you by then, you tramp?
No one else will
l myself will kill him now
With his comic comments
between my serious sentiments
Brother, l want her
lf you love her so much, l will
beg forgiveness at that secretary's feet
Beg at herfeet?
No definitely not!
Your self respect
is more important to me
l can't bear to see my brother
bow his head to any one
From this moment onwards
l have no feelings for that girl
l have decided
to forget everything
There is no need to uphold
my honor by giving you pain
Don't! Brother
Your happiness is most important
l will go and beg forgiveness
- Don't! Brother
- l will
- Don't
- l will
Stop it!
What's the issue now?
You want to continue lineage and
the wealth remain in the family, right?
l am indebted to you
for all you have done for me
Now l want to show my gratitude
So l will marry this girl
You tramp, vagabond
l will kill you!
What is all this Gopi'etta?
We came with a marriage proposal
l knew you would come
l will get dressed and come
Goodness! ls she nuts?
Hey you! What is all this?
These are fruits
- l don't understand
- Which fruit do you...
But why are you here?
We have come with a proposal
We?
My boss has come
with a marriage proposal
For whom?
Me?
l have come to ask your sister's
hand in marriage for my brother
This is not our Kamath tradition
This is Coimbatore style, how is it?
We are not interested
Take all this and get out!
But...
Didn't you understand?
My dear!
Mother don't be upset
Yesterday secretary madam
and l had a small tiff
We have come in truce
with these sweets
Please listen to
what l have to say
My brother likes your daughter Rekha
very, very much
Why don't you
agree to the proposal?
l said we are not interested, didn't l?
lt's not for you to say that
Rekha has to say it
l don't have time
to waste talking to you
l have to reach Palakkad
and she has to reach office
- Rekha, go!
- Please listen to me
My brother is not
a bad guy like you think
Handsome from a good family,
and very good behavior
No drinks, cigarette, snuff,
drugs or chew betel leaves
He will be the greatest
good fortune, a treasure for you
Remember, he's my brother
How could he be bad?!
You brothers are amazing
You speak only good about yourselves
But others too must be convinced
We don't want your loafer brother
- Should l interfere, boss?
- No!
We Kamaths respect women very much
Otherwise l would have
chopped up the tongue...
...that called my brother
a loafer and put it in sambhar
Are you threatening me?
No wonder your wife divorced you
Stop it!
You are frustrated and jealous
Because you did not marry on time
- Talk with respect
- Why should l respect you?
l challenge you, if he truly loves her
my brother will marry herfor sure
Otherwise l will make him
Just you wait
lt will never happen
Never say never, within a month 30 days,
it will happen, l will make it happen!
l take leave now!
Municipality madam!
Adios, madam!
Brother, what foolishness have you done?
How can l possibly marry a girl
from the enemy's camp in 30 days?
When they talked ill about you
l lost complete control of myself
Don't think of losing out in this
My honor is in your hands now
My hands?
What can l do?
You have to show your love
l have been doing only that
ever since l met her, isn't it?
You cannot go after her
like a chain snatcher on a bike
That's true
When a guy goes after a girl, she must
be able to see his love slowly unfolding
How do you do that, boss?
You don't have to know that
Stand away
- Here's your tea
- Go roast it and eat it
- Here drink your tea
- Go boil it and eat it
- Hey!
- Continue brother
Why do people who visit
our hotel, come again and again?
Because we take care and
give them food like each one prefers
That's how you have to do it
Serve according to taste, that's love
He's a great one
in such things with women!
How do you know that?
Don't poke your nose in matters
not your concern, keep it elsewhere
How do we serve
love according to taste?
- You have to sing a song
- Great!
Me?
Sing a song?
Love and singing
have a great connection
- Sing a song
- But l don't know to sing
l will teach you
Just say what you want
to say and that will be a song
Gopi?
Get a harmonium, a little guitar
a violin and a few tablas
Do you wish to make aviyal (a dish)?
No, you ass-monkey
To woo her
- How is it?
- lt's very cold here
You are an ass without
aesthetic sense, go inside!
Brother, but this is in Konkani
She understands only Malayalam
Forthat you can sing
the same thing in Malayalam
Just go ahead sing and impress
lt will be wonderful!
lf l go after her and
sing like this she will sulk
- Then sing 'don't sulk if l follow you'
- How?
l will sing it and show you
Don't be angry my giri
iF i come after you

Don't be angry my giri iF i come after you

Don't be angry my giri iF i come after you
Let my giancet not anger you my girl
Boss! lt's a pity you didn't
return that slap
Haven't you heard?
lt's a sin to lay hands on a 'nari' (woman)
Mother, sister, wife
and lover are 'naris'
All women are 'naris'
(nari also means shameless)
l didn't know that
all women are shameless!
l'm not referring to that 'nari'
you shameless fellow!
Then what?
'Nari' which means women
is what l meant
We have got so many slaps in life
Considerthis as one of them
Did it hurt?
Mmm..but there was
a solace in that pain also
A pain full of sweetness
What! l have been slapped too
Why have l never felt such sweet pain?
There is indeed such a pain
We are talking about human beings
You go ahead
Brother, the guilt of this slap
will start haunting her now
Slowly it will turn to love
Now there's no time to go slowly
Our deadline ends today
Why don't we ask for an extension?
15 days more
Even if you get 15 months more
this is not going to happen
You are very backward
in matters of women
l am unable to forget
- There is a way out
- What is that?
- lf l say it will you jump at me?
- No! Just say it
- Promise?
- l swear!
l'll go abduct and bring her here
- Gopi!
- No!
Oh mother! That she-devil is coming here!
Oh God! Why is she here?
- Come in
- Come, sit
Whose bright idea was
it to make her...
...fall head over heels in love
by singing songs?
My brother's
Music, direction, lyrics
and everything else
- The song was good
- Thanks!
But the idea failed!
Why don't we use Ananda Bhairavi
lt will be really good
l am not ready
for anything hereafter
Shall l get you some tea?
- Are you all slightly mad?
- Then l'll get you coffee
Don't you see madam is hot?
Give her something cool
- l'll get some ice from the fridge
- You can keep it on your head
You tell, Madam
What happened to your
challenge of a wedding in 30 days?
l drew that challenge when l saw
his deep desire to marry your sister
We lost and you have won
We give up
Can't you compromise
and give her to us?
Please don't say no
He loves her so much
- For whom?
- For him
Can we not forget obstinacy and enmity
and allow this wedding to happen?
He will look after her like a treasure
lf wealth is not enough
l will give mine also
She will never ever have
reason for remorse
Rekha is not the girl you think she is
What?! Not a girl?
Brother!
l don't know how to explain this
May be Konkani will help
They understand that better
- Do you know Konkani?
- Gopi!
- You don't know anything about her
- Whatever we know is sufficient
Do you know her caste?
Even if she is lower, she's a Hindu right?
That's enough
She's not a Hindu
She's a Christian
l have only a brother to call my own
Before you know about her
You should know about my brother
l'll be right there
l'll tell them sir
Sir, what are you doing here?
The person l was talking about is on TV
Come
Have you started selling frogs?
Where?
Switch on the TV
Sister, ask Lakshmi to come here
My dear look at the TV
Don't complain you didn't see the boy
- Hey! Shift to Manorama Channel
- Why didn't you say this earlier?
The guy l mentioned will appear now
He is a judge for this program
He's a lecturer
The one with the blue shirt
Oh he's gone
lt will come again
He was all the while watching
that girl who was dancing
- How is the boy, is he okay?
- l didn't see him
- Suresh sir didn't you see him
- Sure very good
- What is her name?
- What?
The girl who danced
Superb performance
l am thinking of proposing
lt will be a good match
Let your sister's alliance proceed first
Tomorrow the boy will come to meet her
Greetings!
Meet Krishnakumar
- Hi
- Come in
- Please sit
- Thank you
Sister
Call her here
Nanu, find an auspicious date
l am sure this alliance is as good as fixed
l undertake all responsibility!
lt was with regard to an income tax raid
Suresh first went to Malikapura House
We are from the income tax department
We have to search this house
Malikapuram house does not have
unaccounted wealth...
...you've been misinformed
ln any case we were misled
Let's know the truth and leave
Call the Minister
Don't worry, all your establishments
are being raided at the same time
Come on search
Listen to me please
Wait
Who are you?
What do you want?
Who are you?
Who is this?
My aunt
Why?
- Where is she now?
- Having a shower

My little one is expressing
a desire for 1st time
So l am not considering
caste or religion
She has neither a mom nor dad
You should look after her very well
lf her brothers come to know of this
They are evil and won't spare your life
Don't worry about that grand ma
As a precaution why don't you
marry herfirst in the registry office?
You can take her home
after your sister's marriage

Where is Suresh?
He's not here
Who are you?
Suresh is in love with our sister
Ask him to forget it
lf our family faces
a bad name because of him
None of you will see him alive
Are you threatening us?
Police and courts do exist here
This one is quite smart, Tomy'cha
When you give the complaint
include this also in it
Come
What is your business here?
Because of my love for your sister
Sunny'chan and Tommy'chan...
...went to my house and
misbehaved with my sister
Have you come
to enquire about that?
Of course! Shouldn't l?
l can consider this is a drama of love
by her brothers towards a sister...
...who is worth in millions, controlling
and not even getting her married
But how can l excuse you
for slapping my sister?
l can't and if l don't return it, l'm not
eligible to call myself her brother
Da!
l am taking her away with me
As per law she is my wife
Here is the copy of the certificate
of our registered marriage
When you have time go through it
l don't want your wealth or assets
But l want her
Grandma, please bless us
Stop!
Did you think you can put up
a show at Malikapuram house...
...and walk out alive with our sister?
They are here for my protection
And my friends also have come
Sunnycha, if she wants let her go
Don't stop them
Go my dear
Go live happily
Come in my dear
You don't worry sis, we'll conduct
your marriage with great pomp and splendor
Get lost!
Oh God! My son!
Brother...!
My son!
The murderer nor the weapon couldn't be
traced by the police or crime branch
She repeatedly gave evidence against
her own family in courts and police stations
But power of money and lack of evidence
allowed the culprits escape from law
Her brothers tried to take her back home
But she did not oblige
She insisted that her place
was at her husband's home
And requested us
not to forsake her
Even when she got her husband's job
as his widow and came to Coimbatore...
...we didn't allow her to come alone
So we accompanied her here
Here also they began threatening her
Remember that issue on the high way?
That is one of her brothers
trying to get her back
God has given her only
misfortunes and unhappiness
Please forget her, at least hereafter
According to my calculation
Suresh came with Rekha to his house at 5 pm
By 10 at night they were
in the bridal chamber
The murderer got in at 10:05
Suresh murdered at 10:10 PM
What do we deduct from this?
One thing is for sure taking
the time they went in...
...and the time he was murdered
What is that?
- Nothing happened
- What?
There has been no
physical relationship between them
Get lost! You ass!
l thought let that not be
a hindrance to this marriage
Deva, what do you say?
My feelings have intensified
lt hasn't lessened even a bit
Can l get a chance
to speak to Rekha?
Please forgive me
l'm here once again on his request
Don't think we are harassing you
Come in
After listening to everything
He wants to interview her
l told him no
But he doesn't listen
When his face falls, my heart breaks
lf it's no trouble, just one minute
She is in that room
Rekha...
To love a man more than life itself
and to spend rest of life mourning his death
l don't understand
ls that what life is all about?
They say God calls back
early, those HE loves dearly
Just console yourself with that
l came behind you
without knowing anything
After knowing everything,
l'm asking you
Can we not have a life together?
The love in our hearts will be only
for one person in life, l know
lt's the same for me also
l will love you more than Suresh
Just give me an answer today
And still if you don't like me
Just say so, l will go away
l will live the rest of my life
like you are doing now
Why are you not saying anything?
Tell me something
- She will not answer you
- Don't be stubborn
Deva, she hasn't spoken since birth
- You mean she is dumb?
- Yes
Suresh knew it and still loved her
l thought you knew this
She won't speak to you
Come, l want to speak to you
That girl has suffered a lot
We didn't know it
Now what shall we do?
- Brother, l want to marry only her
- She can't speak
Whatever her shortcomings
l am prepared to put up with it
l love her that much!
lf you love her so much
lt's fine with me also
Brother!
ln a way it's better
she can't speak
At least you won't
land up in a situation like mine
But she has not agreed so far
lf she doesn't agree,
l won't ever marry
Did you see his love for you?
This is true love
Love should be given in return for love
lf you refuse this love
Even the Gods won't tolerate
Suresh's mom and sister
wants you to live a good life
They want to see you happy
When they see your unhappiness
lt pains them more than Suresh's death
Otherwise, let them say it's not true
My dear, you must accept this
One minute!
Agreed you can't speak
But you can write, isn't it?
Just take paper and pen and write
That you like me
Just write it
lt will be really great
lf you find it difficult to write
Then show it in symbols
Like this
l...love...you
l love you
You...you
She smiled
Brother she smiled
Hey! Put me down
Put me down
l am telling you
This marriage will happen
See he's feeling shy
lt's fixed
The wedding is fixed
Greetings! l am Rajaraja Kamath
l am Devaraja Kamath
My dear granddaughter
wrote a letter and informed me
We have come to receive
your blessings grandmother

bringing her back to life

Shouldn't we invite the villains?
Hey! Villians!
The villains are here

to happen in your house...a wedding
- The bridegroom is my brother
- That's me
The bride is Rekha

She is granddaughter
of the grandmother who lives here
We will be very happy

lt will be great fun for you also
We have given word
to your grandmother...
...that the wedding
will be conducted here
lt will be very easy to come
Just 2 steps
You won't dare step in here
Remember you are playing
with Malikapuram family
Of course we remember
Anyway the match is fixed
Who wins or loses or hits a goal
can be seen on the play ground
Sure we will
Brother! Shouldn't we invite
our brothers-in-law for our party?
Heavens, l forgot!
Tomorrow evening
at Coimbatore Cine club, a party
There will be Malayalam
Tamil and Konkani songs
Yes, come with yourfamilies
and join us and bless us
Your own brother in law is inviting you
Yes, and have a good,
lip smacking dinner

Greetings!
Sorry, we could not
participate in your party
Do you think he will have
a wedding at all?
Before that the groom will die, won't he?
He disappeared to Mumbai
after Suresh's death
Now he's appeared again
to finish you off
Vikram!
Come on fast
My dear brothers
younger and older, greetings
You didn't expect us here, right?
We always do the unexpected
From the minute we came
to your house
We have been expecting
an attack from you
lsn't it brother?.
Yes, allowing me to travel alone tonight
and giving you a chance to confront me...
...to get you here is
brothers brilliant idea
We assumed this guy
who has been elusive...
...to Kerala crime branch and
Kerala police will come again
Vikram Chetri his address,
his mother's name, dads name
...house number were all
given to us by Kerala police
Gopi, people here have not
seen us in action
Should we not show our prowess, Deva?
- Who will begin, you or l?
- We'll do it together
- Shall we flatten them or pulp them
- We'll extract their 'beans'
- Then we'll do it together
- Sure we will, it will be wonderful
- Sure we will
- Gopi, you can go take rest
Vikram Chetri, don't listen to their blabber
Just beat them down
- Now give it to them
- Okay, brother
Boss, my body is aching standing idle
l am yearning to give a few punches
Please give me also a chance
One kick and two blows, okay?
lsn't the wedding today?
We don't see anyone
The wedding is to be held
at Malikapuram house...
...and entire police force
is invited was what Kamath said
Wedding decorations
seems to be missing
lsn't it here the wedding
is to be, Kamath?
Sure in another 10 minutes
We didn't invite you forthe wedding alone
But to get you a promotion too
Gopi!
Let them come out
Let all villains come out
These are the culprits who caused
Kerala police hang their heads in shame
- We are handing them over to you
- Okay, okay
But don't mention we handed them over
Promotion is assured
- Take them
- That's all
Get going
There comes the elusive
culprit Vikram Chetri
He is the main culprit
- ls he dead?
- No
He tried to escape from the jeep
l just broke his backbone
No use living any more
He as good as dead..the corpse!
Thank you
What about the wedding?
All ready
lt will soon be set up
Grandmother, we have kept our word...
...lf Raja enters the fray it
will be a real game
Now tie the sacred wedding thread
Brother
Don't leave Mahalakshmi alone
Who says we'll leave Mahalakshmi alone?
l have decided certain course of action
Gopi! Go bring the sacred
wedding chain and garland
Brother
Take it
One more person has to come
After that we will tie this
- Ask him to come
- Please come
Mahalakshmi's wedding that once
got cancelled will be conducted by me
He considers Mahalakshmi
more precious than life
That's why he remained
unmarried till now, cunning fellow
l discovered this
Okay, let the ritual take place
- Brother
- What?
- l thought...?
- What did you think?
- Mahalakshmi?
- That l will marry Mahalakshmi
Yes
Then it will become like any other story
This is a different climax
What?
ln this malayali land, l am going
to live long without a female partner
lt will be great fun for everyone, right?
