[STUDENTS RECITING TAMIZH RHYMES]
[Students] Hey,
the lorry has arrived.
Come on, keep reversing
there, stop right there!
Come on,
put that bench out here.
Ey-- climb up in twos
climb up carefully
Ey-- hope everyone is
carrying your casual clothes?
Ah-- students in uniform
change into casuals.
-Be careful, kid
-Brother, how's AHM doing?
He's doing good,
when is the next gathering?
Very soon, it'll be great
if the head count increases.
Firstly,
you hike the price 50 per head.
It's their parents demand.
Ah-- fine will pay up soon.
AHM asked to mention it.
You guys are charging 200/head--
--why don't you use that?
-Then, what about us?
As if you're going to pay up.
One, two, three, four, five...
...six, nine, ten
-Hello, hello...
Where are you taking the
students during the school hours?
-He's the new Teacher
-Oh is it?
Can't you hear what I am saying?
Let them go.
Ey-- how dare you?
-Hurry up lazy heads, load them up sooner.
-Oh God, what happened?
-That's our Maths Teacher
-Come on, climb up
-Look, there's space...
-Load them up
-You're forgetting this is a school
Get lost, damn it
Come on climb up.
Load them all carefully...
Hey, bolt the door.
That's fine, you've been asking
too many questions though
are you new to this town?
Are you going to get an
admission at that school?
Obviously they'll
be shocked to hear
it's not a school,
but a buzzing market.
Garbage lying all over
commotion,
will be like a herd of goats.
You will see students gathered in
groups fighting in the name of caste.
Teachers are hopeless,
with no sense of time or discipline.
Govt. Schools,
are bound to be worse
but this school,
tops the list in being the worst.
Schools are meant
to teach good things
but if you study at this school
you'll end up attaining
all sorts of bad habits.
The town is called "Puthur"
but the teachers are
still stuck in Stone Age.
Look-- the safe haven you
were looking for is here.
[Vendor] Sour berries for 1
buck, and candies for 50 cents.
In spite of warning,
you're getting an admission here
carry on
It's better to give an advice
or experience, only if asked.
Add this cigarette on my tab.
As if the students are smart
enough to grasp, if taught.
She's gone a little overboard
with the lipstick today.
Ey-- play without
making a noise.
Ey-- let that go buddy.
Prominent ruler and War
Commander Karren Wallis Prabhu
following Warren
Hastings Prabhu,
took an oath as Chief
Commander of India.
Fine, shall we remember the name?
"Reigner"
"Foreigner... Wallis"
Keep water mug as a reference.
They had arrived to loot
everything from our country.
Yes, Teacher
[In Unison]
Very Good.
Now tell me what is the name?
Karren Wallis Prabhu!
Ok, next we'll try
to remember the year.
How's your business
coming along?
The business is running good.
I Just came to
sign the register.
-There's no one at the shop, I'll leave.
-Fine, you leave
[SINGING A TAMIL HIT SONG]
Excuse me!
Don't you conduct
morning prayers?
What do you guys want?
I'm here for admission
wait for a while, once AHM is
here, meet him and get a receipt.
Only then,
I'll issue an application.
Seems like there's no
Head Master out here.
There's no Head Master over here
don't be annoying,
wait over there.
If AHM arrives,
he'll yell at me.
-Come on...
-Mmmm
I can't even do a
Rangoli in the morning.
Excuse me!
Welcome, Sir.
Gotta pay electricity
bill for both the houses
-don't forget
-I'll go right away, Sir.
Meena!
-Bloody womanizer
-Give me a smile...
Don't you have any sense?
you're blocking the way
move aside.
Right in the morning.
-Good Morning, Sir.
-Mmmm-hmmm
Listen, this is AHM.
Come in and speak to him.
-What do you want?
-Admission for this kid.
It's been a month,
since the school began
and you're here now?
-Which grade?
-6th grade.
Why do I have to
pay 2500 rupees?
Isn't the Govt. fees 230 rupees?
If you seek Private Schools,
you'll end up spending a bomb.
Moreover they'll demand
more for being a month late.
If you're willing,
then pay what's mentioned on that
if not get out from here.
You're not even
1% fit to be here
wonder how you became a Teacher.
Ey-- Ey, how dare you?
Don't mess around with me.
You're getting angry,
'cause I insulted you
just the same,
we're angry when you speak.
Oh-- so you too will get angry?
If you're angry,
take your kid to another school.
This kid won't get an admission,
even if anyone recommends her.
Take your kid and
get out from here.
You're going overboard, damn it.
Ey-- Ey! Vasugi!
-Stop that woman
-What is she doing?
-Stop that woman.
-Ma'am stop, don't do it.
-Stop right there, damn woman.
-Please listen, stop it
Don't you have any sense?
-Give me that rod...
-What you've been doing?
She's so bloody stubborn.
Can't you hear?
Have you gone mad?
What are you reading?
Put that paper
down and stop her.
She's the Head Master!
AHM got rattled,
'cause she rang the bell.
They'll ask us to disperse
once the prayers are done.
I am Geetha Rani!
From this moment,
I'm the Head Master of this school.
Everyone should be inside
the school before 9am.
At 9:05am the school
gate will be locked.
No one should jump
over the walls.
No one should step inside the
school without the uniform.
Oh God no!
In spite of hearing
the bell ring
12 teachers who didn't enter the
class, issue an memo to them, Vasugi.
Ok, madam.
If anyone gets 3 memos,
generate suspension
6 teachers, who have signed the
ledger but not inside the school
file a Police
complaint against them.
I'll recommend suspension.
-Once in, hand it over to them
-Seems like, we gotta work
-PET...!
-Huh?
School should remain as a school
and teachers should
be there for students.
Prayer, disperse!
Madam!
Shall I assemble all the
teachers for introduction?
-How long will it take?
-It will take an hour, madam
Meanwhile,
who will be teaching at the class?
I'll get to know the names and
details, when required
-ask them to head to their classes
-Mmmm
Ok, Madam.
-Vasugi!
-Madam...
Why isn't he at a class?
Madam, we didn't prepare
a schedule for him.
Prepare a schedule and hand
it over by the end of the day.
Now ask him to
substitute for a class.
He can come over,
when I'm not around.
Ok, madam!
Good Morning, Madam.
Why is this here?
So that no one gets in
without your permission.
To discriminate ones' entry--
--it's not the crux of a Temple.
-Remove it!
-Ok, madam.
The room is in a great mess.
I'm doomed!
I'll clean it up,
I will get men and get it cleaned.
I've made her admission,
please sign here.
-Make sure she comes to the school
-Ok, madam.
Study well.
Go ahead!
Sorry Madam, I wasn't aware
you were the Head Master.
Heavy rainfall in Andhra,
from Cuddapah district.
But our town is
parched with no rain.
Ey-- AHM is here.
Sir, please come in.
He must be tired after the class.
He comes to the staff
room, once in 6 months.
Move aside, let him sit down.
Sir, please sit down.
I've cleaned the bench for you.
Don't be scared, it won't break.
Sit down, he won't ask you to.
Ey!
Wonder where she came from...
...just a day,
and it feels like we faced a hailstorm.
I was having a candy.
-Do you want?
-Ey...
-What 'bout you?
-Don't piss me off
Even if you're, I don't care.
Bloody dufus!
He's nodding like a Penguin.
-Look, isn't this good?
-It won't work out
-Get inside
-HM, is here...
-Get lost...
-Buddy hide your cigarette
It's the HM, get inside boys.
I'm studying at a Govt.
School, 'cause it's not strict
-do you know, who is my father?
-Hey!
He has to bring his
father to school tomorrow.
-Ok, Madam.
-Got the cigarette, scoot from here.
Welcome, Miss. New Head Master.
You should sell, cigarettes,
betel etc 500m off the school
I shouldn't see
sell them anymore.
You can put a leash
on your students
don't teach us how
to run a business.
Ey-- Ey! Ey-- Ey!
Look here,
you're messing with the wrong person
Hey!
Hey, come on keep running
madam, I won't sell anymore
Hey!
Hey!
What is it?
The new teacher held the
shopkeeper's hand twisted it
then she gave a strong
blow with another hand.
Then she whisked
a strong kick---
---he fell far from here.
-Did you see it?
-Yes, I did see.
-She's poisonous...
-She was there too
Can I join you guys?
-Good afternoon, teacher
-Please come in, ma'am
Good afternoon, teacher
Hey, move aside.
Please sit down.
Please share among yourselves.
What 'bout me then?
Here, please take these.
-Ey, share some
-You too share...
Who brought Dry fish curry?
It was from me, teacher.
Tell your mom, it is delicious.
Ok, teacher.
We didn't get introduced.
I'm Seetha
I'm Deepika
I'm Farahana
I'm Ashika
and I am Chitra, teacher.
-I am Geetha Rani
-Ok, teacher.
Just call me, Geetha.
that's how you call a
friend, right?
but make sure,
don't get too comfortable with it.
-Ok, Geetha.
-Please eat.
Ey-- HM is here.
Ey-- come on run.
run away, you're going
to get beatings from her
Hey, be careful!
Why do you have run so fast?
Eh-- can't you be careful?
Why were you running from me?
Do I look like a witch to you?
You were here to drink
water, right?
You should fear,
only if you've done something wrong.
-Ok?
-Mmmm!
Which grade are you in?
2nd Grade!
-What's your name?
-Kathir.
-Kathir, is it?
-Mmmm.
Go!
Only the day and
date is being changed
Newspaper looks like is
being xeroxed everyday.
You asked for coffee
and disappeared.
I went to the neighbors to get
cable and newspaper contact.
Fine, how was the school?
It's good though.
But I heard something else
I was told the town
is a hot bed for crime
at least one murder gets
registered in a month.
This town keeps the
Police quite busy.
If Teachers put in extra effort
the burden on Police
will come down.
Fine, you've started your job
no one can stop you, continue.
-Coffee is on the table.
-Will have it dear...
[PRAYER & RIGHTEOUSNESS]
[OUR SCHOOL]
Did you get your kid
admitted into the school?
Why are you headed once
again to the school?
I've started a new
job over there.
Really? That too at
that atrocious school?
What job is it?
Oh, you must've joined the Treasury
Thank goodness,
I thought you joined the herd of donkeys.
One main reason, this nation is
backward, is 'cause of the teachers.
They never nurtured a generation
stating, bribery and scams are wrong.
Do you think Teachers
take up the job to serve?
If the Govt. announces,
their salary will be reduced to half
half the Teachers training colleges
in Tamilnadu will be shut down.
Failing to do their job,
in spite of getting paid is a scam too.
What do you say?
Madam, daily I'll do
your pick up and drop
I'm a scam-free auto driver.
Don't look for another auto.
-Here, take this...
-thank you, madam.
Good Morning, Good Morning.
Vanakkam!
Please sit down.
-Vanakkam, Madam.
-Mmmm.
You're Susheela Teacher, right?
That's right, do you know me?
I've heard a lot about you.
When told you'll be
promoted only if transferred
you refused to do so
and have continued to work
in this school for 33 years.
Please bless me.
Ah-- it's fine dear.
Bless you!
Good Morning to all.
I'll tell you the new
format for prayers.
Once the bell rings, everyone should
assemble on this ground in 5 minutes.
They'll play you a song.
All of you can
dance to that song.
In fact,
even the teachers can dance to it.
This will be called,
Warm up song!
Play!
[WARM UP SONG PLAYS]
Go! Go! Go!
A new era has
begun, wake up folks
Go! Go! Go!
Jump your hearts out
Go! Go! Go!
Embrace the reality
Go! Go! Go!
Ey-- they're dancing
inside, come on let's go.
Go! Go! Go!
Wake up buddy,
c'mon wake up it's high time
Go! Go! Go!
Keep jumping,
jump your hearts out
-Ey-- don't be a nut case
-It's refreshing
Go! Go! Go!
Understand 'n'
embrace the victory
Go! Go! Go!
Go! Go! Go!
Go! Go! Go!
Go! Go! Go!
Hereafter, the school will
remain open on Sundays too
It's not mandatory for
anyone to come on Sunday.
But, I'll come on Sundays.
Whatever you feel
like conveying to me--
singing, dance and your talent
you can write down your demands
and put it inside that box.
This is called, "Sunday Box".
We can celebrate this together.
Everyday, one teacher will be
responsible for the school.
All the events on that day,
will have a governance.
If something goes wrong,
responsibility should be taken.
On that day, they'll be the
acting Head Master for the school.
Let's all say it together...
"Let's learn with utmost Joy"
"Let's learn with utmost Joy"
"Let's learn together"
"Let's learn together"
"Learn with courage"
"Learn with courage"
"Let's learn the world"
"Let's learn the world"
"Let's learn with utmost Joy"
"Let's learn with utmost Joy"
"Let's learn together"
"Let's learn together"
"Learn with courage"
"Learn with courage"
"Let's learn the world"
"Let's learn the world"
Mmm- start the car.
Vanakkam, Sir.
Boss,
our new school at Velumpatti
he's the Teacher at the Govt.
school over there.
He got 12 bright students
to join our school
he's here to collect
his commission for that.
Good job!
If he gets 20 or more students,
give him 10-15% commission.
Ok, Boss!
-Wait here.
-Sure!
Good morning, Sir.
-Good Morning!
-Sir, a minute please
-What's it? -Quarry details
are here -Good Morning, Sir.
Boss, quarry order file is here.
Listen-- a new voice was
heard at the school in town.
I did hear-- inquire about it.
Ok, Boss!
-Ey!
-Boss...
don't send anyone,
you personally inquire about it.
Ok, boss.
Who was it?
Look, that lady over there.
An outsider with such arrogance.
Stop right there,
are you the new Head Master?
I heard that you won't let my son
inside the school, if I don't meet you
Our party will reign next
I'm the MLA of
this constituency.
That's the only reason,
my son is studying in this Govt. School.
He's living his life
with full freedom
I don't bother him at all.
Who are you to question him?
Freedom is something,
you shouldn't take it for granted.
You should do the right thing.
What!? I didn't understand?
Then he's not incapable
You're incapable
of being a father.
I'll take care of him.
You can get out from here.
Ey-- you don't know who
you're messing with?
This is my town.
This is my, School!
I'll get you sacked
from this school.
Ey-- you don't have to study
at this school anymore.
Zero!
I meant you.
What are you staring at?
That's right, you're a Zero!
Have you achieved anything
other than your father's wealth?
Have you topped the class?
or have you won a
prize in some sport?
You're a hero, only if you achieve
more than your father offers.
If not, a Zero!
Win, if you got the courage.
I'll present my cheeks to you
you can give me a slap.
If you think you'll lose
get out from here, right away.
Ey!...Ey!
A woman in this town has
become popular in just a day
what did you say?
That school has got a
new woman Head Master
-Oh-Oh!
-She's arrogant it seems.
She dictates her own rules.
MLA from the opposition
party of this town
his son studies at that school.
He went on to
speak for his son--
--and got insulted
by the Head Master.
That woman Head Master,
is new to her job--
--just wait and watch,
she'll succumb to scams too.
Highly Possible!
[PARENTS]
Just 'cause a new HM has arrived
they'll call for a meeting
and yell at the kids.
On top of it, an
useless gathering.
Ey-- look at her blouse
looks like a Police women.
-Good Morning, Madam.
Everyone is here -Ok.
For God sake,
please be seated calm.
We can only go in the evening--
--this women,
called everyone for a gathering.
There's no one to help at the
shop, gotta find someone
Greetings to one and all.
-I'm the new new Head Master.
-Yesu said will take care of it
Why don't come too,
we'll catch a movie.
Come on, let's catch a movie.
Ey-- Ey, hang up,
I'll call you back soon.
I'm sure many will have a personal
attachment with this school.
You might have
studied over here.
Can someone,
tell me if there's a difference--
--from the time you
were a student out here?
Nothing has changed, madam.
Everything is the same.
Who do you hold
responsible for this?
Neither MLA nor an MP has
done any good till now.
What else?
Officers working here don't report
the mishaps to the higher officials.
What else?
Neither the system nor the Govt.
is doing anything about it.
What have you done?
What have you done for
the school you studied in?
Temples in every town
are vibrant and colorful.
Govt. didn't come forward
with funds to develop them.
It's the public, who did it.
Temples and schools
are not the same.
In fact, a step above.
God comes after the Teacher.
People are generous with donations
during the Temple festivities.
Why don't you feel the same,
when it comes to the schools.
If you people come forward,
not only the crux of temples,
even the school toilets
will be spick and span.
It should come from your heart.
Many wage workers children
study at this school
I'm asking them too
even if you have to carry
a huge sign for help
either at your work place
or someone for that matter
you guys point me towards
them, I'll ask them myself.
But that has to
benefit our children.
Hello, tell me.
I'm Head Master
speaking form R Puthur.
Tell me, madam.
Accounts state, since 4 years you've
used fund for the welfare of the school.
But nothing has been done.
Your people should
arrive tomorrow over here
and the work should begin.
If not, the entire school
will be at the PWD office.
Ok, Madam!
You're here to
scale the peaks
you do what your
heart commands to...
You're here to
scale the peaks
you do what your
heart commands to...
If you behold
a strong vision
it paves way for a noble
heart to fulfill it.
I shall make a new
board and hang it here.
Firstly, throw this away.
Ok, madam.
Just now, someone accused me of
not having a life of my own.
I'll remove it, madam.
If you can crack the
code to your heart
will fix a frame setting
out for the journey of life
You're here to
scale the peaks
you do what your
heart commands to...
Oh God!
Ey-- paint carefully.
Sir, please get me that brush.
-I'll whack you
-Sir, please get that for me
If you can crack the
code to your heart
will fix a frame setting
out for the journey of life
You're here to
scale the peaks
you do what your
heart commands to...
She's done so much?
That's right Boss, even the board
at the entrance has been changed.
We'll be starting admission
in next 6 months, right?
That's right.
Mmmm, ok.
You put up a big
banner in multicolor
right in front of that school.
Whenever they go
past that school--
--they should be
reminded of our school.
Our people,
when they look at the advertisement
will take up loan and admit their
children for the sake of pride.
She can't do squat about it.
Ok, boss.
[TEACHERS]
Students, listen here
am, is, are
was, were
shall be, will be
these are the 12 forms
this is the formula
to speak in English.
-Sir!
-Madam...
Can I ask you 3 questions?
Ya sure, please go ahead
Is this the easy formula
to speak in English?
That's right, madam.
Grammar it is.
Why don't you talk in English?
I can read and write, madam
but to speak in English,
small problem, madam.
If you spend an hour for 40 days
private schools state,
you can easily learn English.
But over here
in spite of learning it for 12
years, 99% can't speak in English.
English draws in only fear.
It's 'cause, the English
teachers can't speak in English.
You have 30 days--
--if you don't speak in
English, then I'll have to
asking to check your quality
I have rights to do that.
If you're not aware,
then read the rule book.
Can I ask you 3 questions?
Sure, madam.
Where all Maths is applied?
Addition, subtraction,
division and to multiply
-it's used for all of it
-what else?
What else...?
There's no computer
without Maths
you can't launch a
rocket without Maths.
Time and period,
everything rely on Maths.
There's no science
without maths.
First, you gotta learn
then you can teach them.
One month
Teachers who don't
update themselves--
--can't create
advanced students.
You can't perform an
experiment given in the book
how can you create
scientists out of them?
History is read--
--not to just create history
teach them not to repeat
the mistakes in the history.
Do, have, had...
I have not slept
well, last night.
Who the hell invented, English?
It's surprising though
didn't you say,
only private school teachers take notes
You just make rice cakes,
I'm already out of steam.
Mmmm-hmmm,
seems like you've started working.
Mom, at your school even
teachers are given homework
shut up and mind your business.
She sounds exactly like her.
[HEAVY SNORING]
[STARTLED]
It wasn't me, Teacher
-Keep studying, Dad.
-Get out!
I'm going.
Is it O2H for water?
or is it H2O?
I read that in school,
can't remember.
H2O...O2H
H2O...
Look like he's got piles,
been walking for a while
How come you're not eating?
Not hungry?
Stop right there,
do you have constipation?
That madam,
is going out of control.
She's been torturing everyone.
That's why you should
be a PT master.
She won't come
towards the ground.
Next you're doomed.
My curse will come true.
H2O...
[STUDENTS CLAMOR ON THE GROUND]
-Good Morning, Geetha
-Good Morning!
Hey kids, come over here, quick.
Put aside the bat
and balls over there.
Everyone stand in a line.
Ey-- please, one, two
One, two
My chickpeas...four
oh no, it's falling down
five, six
Sorry chickpeas...chickpeas,
seven, eight
Good Morning, madam.
Can I help you with something?
I'm on duty.
Usually,
I don't speak to anyone on duty.
-Oh...Oh!
-Duty first!
One, two, three, four
-Five
-Can I ask you 3 questions?
Damn that baldy's
curse is coming true
Two periods per week
in a year approximately
60 classes
Is this what you
gonna teach them?
Individual games
did Sir, examine everyone
based on team sports?
NO!
Ssssh...be quiet.
Then why do we need a PET
master for the school?
You conduct competitions
for the sake of it.
A kid on the run inside a
jungle can defeat an animal.
You can find a runner in him.
Farmers children has
got the best of stamina.
Martial arts, ploughing,
there are a many forms
You should find out,
what they're capable of.
Ok, Teacher.
Only if you discover
talents from rural children
we can win Internationally.
That's true, teacher.
I asked you to do it.
Then one more question--
--how many games are
played in Olympics?
Madam, I'll learn
everything in a month.
I'll somehow manage to make
her, PT Usha.
I'll definitely do
something with him.
But I'll listen to
everything you ask me to do.
Please don't give me a memo.
-'Cause I have loans to pay
-It's not really up to me
It lies in your performance.
Performance uh?
What is that?
I'm not sure what
you're going to do
you got to transfer that
lady from that school.
It's not even two
months, since she joined
how can I transfer her so soon?
Fine, our district Minister,
isn't he your close friend?
why don't you ask him?
Don't just rant
for the sake of it.
He's ruling party
and I'm opposition.
Come on,
he's been waiting for you to come.
Do you expect me
to go and meet him?
I can't bow down to him
suggest another way to it.
If that's the case--
--not only transfer,
you can even suspend her
as if you're not aware of it.
Stir up a conflict.
She never smiles at me--
--how come she's smiling today?
-He's here...
-Vanakkam, Sir.
Sit down.
I'm wondering, how she became an
Head Mistress at such an young age.
When I inquired at CEO office,
I was told, direct posting.
I think he's not aware.
I'm sure, something is fishy.
I'm going to drag
her to the court.
-Sir..
-What is it? Don't believe me?
I'm going to make her beg.
You've been suspended.
What!?
That's right, Sir.
Damn it,
do you peck yourself for a Queen?
Do you peck yourself
for a Queen?
You don't make the rules here.
You've suspended
me, without a memo.
Only CEO has the
power to suspend.
But you must've recommended.
I might have
May be one of the students
who were swore at
in the name of caste
or for harassing the
teachers and female students
may be their complaints had
led to take action against you.
I'm ready to state the reason.
But you have two daughters.
They shouldn't feel ashamed,
'cause of your actions.
Just 'cause you're
working against me
If you think I suspended you,
then you're making a mistake.
The school is
scorching with heat
why so? Is the heat too much?
It's 'cause of your daughter
Oh-- she's taking salary from the Govt.
and is actually working?
Ah-- she's here.
-I'll speak to her,
you can leave -Ok, Sir.
Vanakkam madam.
Come on, keep moving.
Dear, check out this news.
This boy in the news used
to study at your school.
[STUDENTS CHATTERING]
Paandi Ammal, Kavitha, Karpagam
Murgesan, Muthumaari, Pazhanisamy
Why are we gathered here?
Wonder,
what she's gonna ask today?
-she must drag something
-Last year 9th grade
You people have
failed, 82 students.
Do you know,
how many have continued?
To get good results in 10th grade,
we have to filter them in 9th grade.
Isn't that the procedure?
My question was how many have
continued to come to school?
How would we know about that?
seems like the next
conflict is on...
28 students.
54 have discontinued.
That means,
you've destroyed 54 lives to dust.
Do you know, what these kids
are doing at the moment?
Majority of them
are wage workers
and are on the accused
list at the Police station.
Why do we need schools to create
criminals and wage workers?
If they're not capable,
obviously we have to fail them.
Shall we conduct an exam
for all the teachers?
Let's see how many
capable to be a Teacher.
Whoever seems incapable,
shall we chuck them out?
If all these students file a case
against you people proving you're wrong
you'll end up compensating
for their lifetime.
Once you're defeated,
they don't tend to turn back.
That's why we ask them to return to
the school, once they pass out SSLC.
There's a pride in
failing the SSLC
but failing the 9th grade
will considered uneducated.
I'm telling you people now--
--those 82 students have passed.
We don't have enough teachers.
Moreover, they can't be taught.
Don't call them incapable
tell me, that you're incapable.
Why do we need doctors
for the healthy?
If you can teach only
to the smart students
then don't call
yourselves teachers.
I'll get more teachers
from, PTA fund.
If that isn't enough,
we'll get volunteers.
Madam, last year results have
been signed by CEO and DEO.
-How's it possible?
-Do you have a better idea?
I'll be the class teacher
for those 82 students.
I'll handle the issues
which will come my way.
What are you doing?
hit it hard. Idiot!
fill in the sand into those dyes'
stack them in order
Brother, hold on for a minute
-Aren't you Muthu Maari?
-Yes.
Murugesan, Velan,
Ayyanar, Devi, Jennifer
why are our names
being called out?
Head Master has cleared
you from 9th grade
you're moving to 10th grade.
wash your hands and leave.
Come on,
she called you right away.
That's fantastic!
Go on, study well dear.
You guys have
cleared the 9th grade
HM has asked to come over
You guys can head to 10th grade.
Our next lesson is
about shore salts
there are two types
of shore salts
Sea Salt and Kosher Salt
-Turn over to the next
page -You too do it...
[MUTTERS FORMULAS]
-That's the correct one...
-Did you make a note? Shall I take it?
A over B, B=C
You should strike A & B
Ey-- this is No.18
the last house, check that out
Sir,
we didn't do anything wrong.
Why are you here to arrest us?
-Is this kid in the 7th grade?
-Yes, Sir.
He hasn't been attending
the school for a month
as family's salutation was
bleak, I had sent him for work.
It's mandatory, for them to
attend the school until 8th grade.
if parents refuse to do
so, we have to arrest them.
That's the law.
Their Head Master has filed
a complaint against you.
What shall we do?
I'll send him to the
school, tomorrow.
Fine, you can go.
We've been bestowed
with the wings now

[VENDORS CLAMORING]
Here take this, it's 20 bucks.
-Good Morning, Teacher.
-Good Morning.
So, you're Geetha Teacher?
-Yes
-Sir, give that back
No tomatoes for you
people, find another shop
It's not that Teacher--
--I never thought my son
will pass through the exams
but you've made
him clear 9th grade
these tomatoes will last only for a
day, that's why I didn't sell it to you
Fine, is it fair to
sell them to others?
If I sell them,
I'll make 5 bucks.
Fine, I won't sell them.
Ey Munnswamy,
do you have fresh stock of tomatoes?
I got a fresh batch
in the morning.
He's got them,
please get it from him.
Ey Ramesh,
send these tomatoes to the hotel.
-Please visit again, teacher.
-Sure
-Let's go, Dad.
-Ok, dear.
-Were you talking about her?
-Yes, Dad.
We did get a valid
permission for the banner.
It's a silly reason.
We we're accused of cutting
down the trees for the banner
and a complaint was lodged
with Forest Department.
I've already made arrangements
for the new banner.
Do you want publicize
my humiliation?
Let it go,
she's not worth the trouble.
She's not working
for just one school
she overcame the education of
half the riches in Tamilnadu.
Others might come forward with
loads of money for admissions.
People stand in queue, in spite of the
donation is 1 lac, do you know why?
They don't send
them here to study
it's for their pride.
If she enlightens them,
it'll spread endlessly
She's going overboard,
no one to stop her.
Sister,
why didn't you pay your due?
I did pay them, the other day
they've been
torturing me for it.
Vannakam!
Do you know, who am I?
Obviously she knows you.
Here, have this dear
Wondering, why I was pretending
not to recognize you?
It's not good to be
disrespectful of the guest.
That's why-- do you
think it's fair?
you're luring someone in starvation
with a well spread feast.
In front of the school,
where people are not well to do
AC Rooms, colorful toys
tours and fun activities.
Won't they long for it?
We will put up a banner,
who are you to question?
Are you trying to intimidate
me in my own house?
-Ey!
-Mmmm.
-It's not that Boss...
-Hmmm.
You mind your own business,
and she will mind hers.
If you create any problem
she'll definitely
make it tough for you.
You can leave now.
Fine, I'll mind my own business.
I'll take a leave, Teacher.
-Good Morning, Sir.
-Mmmm.
Listen-- The Collector is here.
Ok, let him come, Sir.
Please get up,
he'll sit over there.
Sir!
-Hello Sir! -Hello...
-Welcome to my School.
Please sit down, Sir.
Can't you offer
coffee or tea for him?
Govt. doesn't give me an
expense account for that
if you still insist,
I'll buy from my own pocket.
Not required.
We're here for
Inspection, come with us.
You're here unannounced
I have some work to do
The school is ready for you,
can proceed with Inspection.
Chitra!
What is it, Geetha?
Who is our one day
HM for the day?
Mmmm, It's Kayalvizhi teacher.
-Ask her to come.
-Ok, Geetha.
You can leave, Sir.
She'll join you.
(a + b)
=
+3 ab
+3ab
-Good morning, Sir.
+b
(a - b)
-Vanakkam, Sir.
-Vanakkam!
I'm Kayalvizhi.
-Oh! One day HM.
-Yes, Sir.
Come on, let's go.
The school looks
different from before--
--it has changed a lot.
-Shut up.
Shall we complaint to
Collector about our HM?
What are you planning
to complaint about?
We were jobless,
without doing our duties
but now she's asking
to do our jobs.
Or there's no salt
to dip mangoes?
Continue pretending to work.
Ey-- boys and girls
stand in different queues
-Come on, do it
-Hold on...
Give that cane to me
Who's out there?
Kalimuthu, come over here.
-Where are you headed?
-I'm off to Delhi.
Show me your hand.
-How are you planning to go?
-By airplane.
Ok, go.
[MIMICS AIRPLANE SOUND]
You made a stop at, Chandigarh.
Give me that stick.
-Who is going next?
-Teacher, I wanna go...
Teacher shall I go?
Muthulakshmi,
you come over here.
How are you planning to go?
I'm gonna take the
train, teacher.
Here take this stick, go.
[MIMICS TRAIN SOUND]
See,
girls are winning these days.
Applaud for her.
Sir, they won't forget
this in their lifetime.
Next is Vishakapattinam,
Arumugam
-you can take the
ship -Teacher...
The Collector is here.
Vanakkam, Sir.
Take this, Teacher.
It's fine, you please sit down.
-Please sit down.
-I'm fine, I will stand
Please everyone go outside.
You carry on with the
kids, please continue.
Everyone wait out here.
Come on, sit down.
Geetha Rani!
Extremely arrogant, right?
There's a huge list of
complaints from your school.
They must've planned
to suspend you.
Someone had sent me a
message on whatsapp.
That's why I came
personally to meet.
Do you want to check the files?
Shall I ask them to get it?
Ya, right!
I used to be just like
you in the beginning.
Faced too many transfers.
Couldn't take it.
Shall I order lunch?
Then you'll state it has
to come out of your pocket.
Not required, I'm leaving.
Be careful.
Sir, did you notice that
woman is very arrogant.
That's why,
I gave her a stern warning.
Ok, Sir. Thanks, Sir.
I thought will get
promoted as HM this year
I wish to be the Head Master
of the School at my native.
One year, exactly one full year
I made sure no one
got appointed as HM.
But that woman tarnished
my dream into the dust.
Now--
--now,
I think my job is in danger.
I've been ranting
the same rubbish.
we don't deserve this
that too it's our town.
I'm not gonna beat
around the bush anymore.
Strike her down
with a strong blow.
[INDISTINCT STUDENTS CHATTER]
-She doesn't listen to us
-You're being arrogant
I asked her to sit next to me,
but she went and sat next to him.
stop it...
-Geetha is here...
-Laughter is quite much
Nothing much, Geetha.
So, tell me
Ey-- you tell her.
Fine, at this moment,
you're our friend not a Teacher.
Only then I'll tell you.
Fine, tell me.
-Sshhh!
-There's a guy who travels in our bus
he keeps smiling at
her all the time.
What's madam's
reaction for that?
Now even she's
smiling back at him.
Does it tickles your heart?
no hunger, nor you can study
smiling without your knowledge
this is usual at your age
I'll tell you all a story.
Let's take life as
a beautiful journey.
At the end of that journey--
--there a exuberant treasure
filled with gold and diamonds
will be waiting for us.
But won't be visible to us.
We will move seeking towards it.
On the way, we'll find bits
and pieces of the gold.
Just like this.
Looking at that,
if you think you got your treasure
the journey will
end right there.
Who continues to seek
till the end ignoring it
they will find that treasure.
So, what is it Farhana?
I'm going to take a
different bus from tomorrow.
Ey-- come on guys.
Oh God, no...
Ey-- the truck goons are here.
What do we do now?
Ey-- get out!
-Go!
-Oh Damn!
-Hey...
-Ey, take my bag
You refused to send
the kids with us.
That too in our own town.
Don't think,
you can make the rules.
Ah-- Ey-- close that door.
Brother, please don't do it.
Let us show here what
"Fear" is all about.
Please brother, don't do it.
Doesn't matter,
if it's a man or a woman
who stands up against us
shouldn't forget us
for their lifetime
Ey-- scar her face.
Ey...!
-Can you open the door?
-Sure, Madam
-Need to wash my hands
-Sure, madam
Ey-- who's got the keys
open the door, damn it.
She's a strong woman
she fights like a professional
She just gave me one beating
my mouth is swollen, brother.
Damn, she beat him up.
CEO said,
that The Collector is on her side.
The entire town
should go against her.
You work from inside
and I'll take care
of the rest here.
Will you do it right?
I will do it, Sir.
Dear, I went out for
lunch and had Biryani.
Sorry, you had made lunch for me
but I didn't eat.
Did you eat?
Hope you're not stressed out?
fine, close your eyes
Did you close your eyes?
take a deep breath
feel free...
Ok?
Bye, dear.
Ok, Dad.
don't be roaming around,
go home and take rest.
Kathir!
Come in.
They made sweets at home today.
Thank you!
-Did you eat it?
-Mmmm!
Then, you have to marry me
What!?
My cousin mentioned that
if she takes the
sweet from me and eats
we'll get married it seems.
That's why,
I didn't give it to her.
Now that you've eaten it
you have to get married to me.
Fine, I'll marry you
but you gotta wait for me
until you grow older
-Ok!?
-Sure, I'll wait.
But this secret
should be within us.
Mmm-hmm,
I won't mention it to anyone.
Fine, get to the class.
[STUDENTS QUARRELING AND FIGHTING]
Students,
what are you doing here?
everyone get to the class.
Sir,
why are you not stopping them?
It will become an issue, madam.
Why are you scared to stop
the fight between the kids?
It's better you don't
get involved in this.
Nonsense!
Stop it!
Listen to me damn
it, stop the fight.
Maariappa!
Ey-- Azaghu please
listen, stop it
Ey-- what's all this, stop it.
Stop...
Stop it!
Ey-- Sundaram!
Stop it.
[STUDENTS GASPING FOR BREATH]
What is happening out here?
These guys hit one of our guys.
WE can't be calm,
if one of our guy is beaten up.
That's why we gave them back.
What do you mean by that?
people
people
In one hour, all their threads
should be burned to ashes.
Madam, please understand
this is a sensitive matter
we're here from
different cities for work
don't we need to
lookout for ourselves.
It's not my duty to
provide you protection.
If you're scared,
then don't get out of your houses.
Who knows,
the roof might fall on your head.
First page of every book,
states encouraging haptic is a crime.
Seems like you guys have
never gone through that.
It happened,
exactly like I mentioned
look where she
has dragged us all
We shouldn't let that woman
step inside the school anymore.
Treasury ma'am,
do you know one thing
that head mistress,
removed the caste bands off the students.
The caste fanatics are
restless with their rage.
We can never change them
they apply for caste certificate
before birth certificate
people from other parts of the
world are reaching out to moon
but over here, the carve a space in assembly
and rule the nation in the name of caste.
Look, they've started already.
I have to see,
who is this woman.
Ma'am, let's meet her together.
"Geetha Rani, Down...Down!"
"Transfer, Geetha Rani"
"Transfer the Head Master"
"Geetha Rani, Down...Down!"
"Transfer the head master"
"Geetha Rani, Down...Down!"
Sir, she's our head master.
Vanakkam, sir.
-Are you the head master, Geetha Rani?
-Yes.
Officers are on the way,
they'll discuss and resolve it
you don't have to step
inside, please leave.
Aren't they
protesting against me?
I'll speak to them myself.
If something goes wrong with you,
who will take the responsibility?
If it does,
I'll take the responsibility.
Brother, please take this.
[SLOGANEERING CONTINUES]
Please listen to
what I have to say.
Can you people just listen
to what I have to say?
All you people want is
for me to leave, right?
Fine, I'll resign from my post.
Is that enough?
As I'm going to leave--
--shall I ask you
people 3 questions?
They're webbed now.
What are your questions?
Go on ask them.
First let me ask them a question
I like people who stand
up for themselves.
Especially I like them the
most, who stand up against me.
Tamilnadu govt.
Budget from last year is 1,90,000 crores
from that 70,000 crores goes to salaries
and pensions for the govt. Employees.
Which in fact amounts
to 35% of the total
there are 18 lacs, govt. Employees.
From the public share of
3%, 35% goes as income.
Teachers have equal share in it.
Still-- the salary isn't
enough, facilities aren't enough
you people who protest
for silly reasons
the quality of education is bad
students don't receive
basic amenities
system should bring a change
have you ever protested
with these demands?
Chief vanakkam. Your flag is
fluttering all over the town.
There's a party
office at every town.
But if that served as a medium to fulfill
public demands, would've been good.
You pose your caste is
behind with full support
that paved success to
your entire family.
But how many have you
upraised from your caste?
According the quota allotted,
how many have pursued higher education
or have seeked out govt.
Jobs or have been approved bank loans
at least have you helped them
seek MSME skilled labor?
Except for your henchmen
and your so called slaves.
Come on, reply.
Are you trying to turn
my people against me?
I have one more question
I don't have to
answer your questions.
I know how to tackle you.
Ey-- come on, let's leave.
Who the hell is this lady?
She has a point though.
You're always
against the teachers.
I'm supportive of the students.
If you don't do your job,
in spite of getting paid
I believe that should be
added to the list of scams.
I'm very sure of it.
Children of 38 teachers of our
school are studying in schools.
Raise your hands, how many have
their children study at govt. School?
When you don't
believe in yourself
how do you expect
me to trust you?
Just those 5, you guys tell me
should I step inside or not?
She faces anything
with true grit.
When questioned,
reverts with force.
Now, she's known
to the entire town.
If we try to hurt her
our image will be tarnished.
Our next move
should be a big one
Ey-- you were very enthused,
but now you've done squat about it.
I can hear your
bloody mind voice.
That teacher,
teaching me a lesson too
our next blow to her
she should remember
us for her lifetime.
But we need to know about
her background thoroughly.
I'm aware now...
Madam knows that you
were behind everything
AHM who went against,
is relentlessly frequenting the court.
You've completed the job
I'm pretty sure, your job is...
"Parade, turn right!"
One, two, three, four...One!
"Parade, march forward!"
"Turn left"
one, two, three, four...One!
"Parade, caution!"
One!
"Parade, caution!"
One!
"Parade, march left"
"turn left"
one, two, three, four...One!
"Parade, march forward"
"march briskly"
"One, two, one"
"One, two, one"
"parade, halt!"
"Coming to halt... one, two"
Ey--Ranganathan look over there.
Ah-- what's happening?
"Line cut!"
-Ma'am, how are you?
-I'm very good.
-How's everything?
-All fine.
And is everything good?
-Everything is fine...
-Ok, ma'am I'll leave.
If we get hold of him,
we'll know everything.
Go and get him.
Singh ji!
Singh, Singh, sing...Even his
walk is like he's running.
Do you know her?
What were you guys
speaking about?
Where did she come from?
I can't understand, Tamizh.
And I can't understand, Hindi.
Ey-- get someone
who knows Hindi.
-How can I find someone here?
-Go, damn it.
Hindi, where are you?
[Sings in joy]
Sir, this is not Hindi
Let that go, come on.
You brought a small kid
sir, he's the son
of pani puri vendor
he speaks good Hindi.
Look at him,
he's round like a puri.
-Namaste, sir ji.
-Namaste.
-Did you see that?
-I know Hindi, sir.
Ask him, what I had asked you
they wanted to know,
what was Madam's previous profession?
Madam is great and very strong.
She's a Lt.Colonel
in Indian army.
HM, used to be a High-Rank
military officer.
-Military is it?
-Yes.
There's no Bigotry,
no matter what you do, don't despair
There's no Bigotry
Keep searching for vectors,
there's no limit to it
Keep searching for Vectors
Your brisk walk, will make the
mountains and cliffs look smaller
Your lightning streak
will pave way for success
"Platoon retreat"
"Turn right"
"Turn right"
"About turn"
Keep searching for Vectors
There's no Bigotry
There's no Bigotry
There are three
outcomes of a war
Attack
Self defense
Failure
these three are
under our control.
We move forward by attacking
our strength builds
with self defense.
And failure reinvents us.
This paves a new path for us.
Doesn't matter what it is...
If you're agile,
the distance recedes
Be persistent and succeed
Fixate on matters
which you feel is right
Believe in yourself,
your doubts will disappear
Why do you want to get relieved?
I'm eligible for it now.
Stop that eligibility nonsense.
With your capacity, you can rise
to higher rank and end your career.
I'm proud of being in military.
But now I definitely have to go.
According to your category under Civil
range, Thasildar, Deputy Collector
you can be either of it.
But you're stubborn on
being a head master.
Why?
Oh, did you get a promotion
from military school?
Fine, instead of choosing a big
cities like Coimbatore and Madurai
but you've chosen an
unknown town down south.
-That's where I should be, sir.
-Eh?
Ok...
...sounds like you have
a plan in your mind.
All the best!
Take care.
Sir,
when am I getting my due paid?
I had a doubt, when she
instigated the state government.
That she must be from
the central government.
You're doomed.
You've shown your
antics to an elephant.
-Military!?
-Hmmm.
A person who travels
empty hand in the dark
than the person who
travel with a flame torch
the latter will have more grit
my grandmother
used to mention it.
Must be true.
In fact, it's true.
Never knew she
was that dictator.
Socrates-- silent, silent...
Brother,
you seem very silent today.
No, no, nothing like
that, madam.
You said the right
thing, the other day.
You can't blame the
teachers all together.
The system is not right.
There's a kid next to our house
he scored centum in maths
but scored 64% in biology
and failed in 12th grade.
Do you think he'll be able to pursue,
BSc.Mathematics?
They won't let him, right.
So,
we lost a mathematics genius.
Head master ma'am,
toppers are not genius.
You can take it as,
they're good at mugging up.
This system has turned engineers
into food delivery boys.
That means,
the system is a failure.
What crap is this, it's in English.
What is this letter about?
Coming week, there's district
level tournament happening.
Fine, we'll do it.
District level tournaments
are about to begin
even this year our school's
name should be in papers.
Ok, Sir.
If that doesn't happen
you can't find your names
under teachers list.
Don't even bother to
collect your salaries.
Ok, Sir.
You're always munching.
That's exercise for the mouth.
I'm not working out though
-at least let my mouth work out
-you'll never change.
You're faking the accounts right?
Keep at it.
The road looks hazy,
after evaluating the papers.
Sir good morning, sir.
Sir, good morning.
HM has summoned you.
-For what?
-I have no idea.
Sir, give me your hand
come on give it to
me, will return it.
You gathered a crowd, right?
Congratulations for
your suspension.
Go, I have to eat my chips.
Tell me teacher,
you had summoned me.
Take this.
What is that?
What is it, teacher?
-Take it
-what is it, madam?
Next week there's Junior
District Tournament
you be the in-charge of it.
Madam, he's a maths teacher.
-I'm a Tamizh teacher.
-Oh!
Are you looking for OD
or money from PTA funds
there's no set rule that a
Tamizh teacher has to attend it.
Last 6 years,
you've been in-charge
our school never won a prize.
This year even if
he can't win a prize
there's no difference in it.
He managed to gather a
crowd for the protest.
We'll finally know,
if he's really worth it or a dummy.
Incorrigible!
Ey-- get back.
Everyone get back.
No PET master should be
seen close to the field
If I see them will
disqualify their team.
Get back, come on get back.
Ask them come accordingly
Sir, our students
made the long jump.
Over here, my verdict is final.
If you still dispute it,
will disqualify your team.
Out!
Madam,
did you see what they're doing?
Madam, we should be winning
their measurements are wrong.
Won't you question them?
Your anger is valid
but you're venting it
out at the wrong place.
Sir,
shall I ask you 3 questions?
Mmmm, go on.
Sir, do you have a clear vision?
Or at least you know the
difference between one and two?
Wait,
let me ask the 3rd question
will you agree, if your child
is given a different initial?
You're giving away their
rightful victory to someone else.
Damn it! How dare you
speak to me like that?
I'll whack you.
I'm disqualifying your team.
Which school are you from?
I'm gonna disqualify your entire school.
Get out! Out!
Get out!
If you ask what
nature consists of
moon, sun, sky...
Did they call out
our school's name?
Why do you look so nervous?
I can feel your heartbeat
on your shoulder.
I'm scared that we'll
lose the competition.
If that's the
case, it's awesome.
Only the winner
should be scared.
But we are going to lose,
why should be scared?
I went through your content.
It's awesome.
A packet of 10 potato
chips, must be 1 buck
but they sell it for 10 bucks
through packaging and advertisements.
So, content 10%,
presentation 90%
success 100%
gather all our students.
Come on, get them.
Come on, let's go.
First,
I'm going to disqualify you.
-Sir!?
-Suspension bonus.
Re-conduct all the
events handled by him.
[PARTICIPANTS CHEER WITH JOY]
-Do you understand now?
-I do, sir.
So, nothing to be scared.
There's no issue.
Next on stage is S.Vadivel of R-Puthur
Govt. Higher Secondary School.
Go!
[PARTICIPANTS INDISTINCT CHATTER]
"Let no ear listen to my squabble"
"LET NO EAR LISTEN TO MY SQUABBLE"
"Nor any eye shall witness my actions"
"If you ask why?
I'm going to talk to the nature."
"Nature helps us breathe"
"Nature offers fragrance"
"Nature offers music too"
On your mark!
Get set!
[STUDENTS CHEERING]
If a rooster and a chicken
is pit against each other
who do you think will win?
We can survive only,
if the world doesn't know their roosters
Why do you think I spend a
fortune and send you guys there?
She's just one person,
you guys are useless.
Just quit the job and leave.
Get lost!
Sorry, Sir!
Fine...
Speak to those 8 students
get them into our
school under free quota.
It's 8 seats, Sir
if we say 50k/person,
it's still 4 Lacs.
Last year we spent 14
Lacs on promotions.
If we take them in--
--they'll make sure at least 10 times
their names will appear on the newspapers.
Free Promotions!
So, our expenses will
cut down to half.
We can save 3 Lacs from it.
So don't teach me economics.
He wanted to meet you--
--he is the AHM of that school.
Vanakkam, Sir.
I was told you
used to be an AHM?
That's right, Sir.
I was good at my job.
But that lady suspended
me out of the blue.
This is your side of the story
we should inquire out there
too, you get to the point.
Teachers out there are
having a tough time.
We have to take notes
should be disciplined
she imposed strict rules
we end up slogging like cows
just as Private school teachers
It's Annual day at
the school in two days
I'm sure that school will
be your strong competitor.
-He's thinking in our favour.
-Yes, Boss.
Send a bouquet to the school.
Ok, Boss.
Do you agree?
I most definitely agree.
It's celebration all
around our school
we've carved a niche name
in the History of friendship
Teachers and Parents,
their hearts are pure as always
It's celebration all
around our school
we've carved a niche name
in the History of friendship
Teachers and Parents,
their hearts are pure as always
Our friendship is
vibrant like a rainbow
if there's an exam on friendship,
everyone will pass in flying colors
millions are there as
our kins to shower love
keep playing,
our time has come
The kids out here are brats
but their antics on
the stage is atrocious
Just like the new born calf
we sketched a rangoli
around the stage
we turn into little gangsters
slowly during our play
Once we step out
of the playground
we don't ponder on
ego in friendship.
We can create an
Earth above the sky
can bring the stars down
and spread the the light
we can teach that
proletarians are our God
we can create a world
without discrimination
Arrogant women.
She challenged me.
Did you see how I
won against her.
-You?
-Ah..!
In 14 years of service, for the first
time, you've done your work
now tell me, who won?
Is it you or madam?
You're not even aware of that.
Front benchers are genius...
...backbenchers
are outright smart
we most definitely listen
to our girl friends
we shower them with
unconditional love
We're the young
wind of change
quoted our beloved
Abdul Kalaam.
Caste or religion
wouldn't matter...
Dad!
Son...
Thanks Dad, look at this.
That's awesome, son.
Murgesan +1 A2, Third Prize
Come over here
-Come on...
-Mom, where are you taking me?
I said, come with me.
Now do you agree
my son is a winner?
Kumar +2 C2...
Your son, will never prosper
'cause of his actions
he'll be tarnished into the dust
he'll be unsuccessful
and loiter the streets
You are the right person.
I was scared,
how my son's life would turn out
Sir, you sent a flower bouquet
but nothing happened
It will happen, have patience.
May I come in, Madam?
May I please come in, Madam?
Come in.
I'm coming from MSC School.
Our correspondent
sent me to meet you.
Sit down!
Thank you, Madam.
Your work is amazing.
The entire town is
raving about you.
Your services shouldn't be
constrained to this small circle.
The Govt.
won't respect your talent.
Only the Private Sector,
will know your rightful place
how to raise your bar
also how to respect your talents.
what I'm trying to say
is, at our MSC School
should take up the position
of respectable Head Master.
That's our Sir's wish too.
To express that friendship,
he sent a bouquet.
Also... one another thing
Take this.
-What is it?
-5 Lacs in cash.
Sir asked to give it to you.
You want me to work in your
favor, right?
If I meet him, will convey
that you were grateful to him.
Please take this and leave.
Madam,
Sir is a very good person.
You just list your demands
I'll speak to Sir and
make arrangements.
You seem wiser
should've given a thought,
when this job was given to you
-That...
-but you didn't
Get out, damn it!
She was disrespectful, Sir
she asked me to get out.
Get out, damn it.
She was way better...
I had something else in mind.
What was it?
-I thought it was a bomb...
-Boss...
Did you peck me for
a heartless killer?
You're asking to
kill the children.
You're not fit to be a teacher.
There's a huge difference
between killing and winning.
She bloody challenged me
I will win against her.
But, you get out from my school.
Get out!
I have another idea, Sir.
What is it?
82 students who failed
the 9th grade last year--
--were cleared and sent
to the 10th grade by her.
Exams are going to
start in 10 days.
the hall tickets have come.
Lawyer advised that,
we can file a case against her.
You've said it right?
The Idea is good.
I'll take care of it.
Don't be inside my
school, just get out.
Disgusting Creature!
Clean the spot,
where he was standing
-Call my son-in-law
-Ok, Boss.
Come in
What did you get me today?
I didn't get anything.
Then?
People came to ask my
neighbor's hand in marriage.
Oh-Oh!
I asked them why?
Asking ones hand in marriage
is the first step to marriage.
Then you have to get engaged.
Later you can get married
at your convenience.
So...?
Shall I ask your
hand in marriage?
Ey-- you're going overboard.
Should I call your parents?
Not required, my brother will
come and ask your hand in marriage
my brother studies
here too, in 7th grade
I'm gonna whack you,
go back to the class.
Are you angry?
Sir, here take this new pencil.
Wow, the one with the
rubber on the back.
He's a tiny brat
he's speaking about
marriage and engagement.
May be he's reminding
you of something.
People are still asking
your hand in marriage.
Dear, you still haven't moved
on, right?
Please get to bed.
Goodnight!
you always find
ways to shut me up.
Dad, didn't you go
for your morning walk?
Dad!
Dad...
Doctor,
can you please come over?
What happened?
Is it an emergency?
You were my dearest friend...
you will remain in
my heart forever
Seems like he passed
couple of hours ago.
If you have to,
please inform your kith and kin.
You were my dearest friend...
-Please certify it, Doctor.
-Ok.
you will remain in
my heart forever
I may have not
spoken to my mother
but I heard every word you
said, your loving daughter
Madam...
Hello, Madam.
Vasugi,
I'm taking half a day off.
Ok, Madam.
Ok.
I've become oneself
'n' moving into future
moving on...
Is your father unwell?
My father, passed away.
-Shall I?
-No issues, I'll take care of it.
-You guys carry on, I'll follow
-Ok.
Don't lower the body,
get the head around.
Turn it around.
Hey-- who is this woman?
Madam, please stop.
women are not allowed
here, at this hour.
-Step aside.
-Eh!?
voices go unheard in
the wandering world
any soul which doesn't
witness the death
will never get
a full closure
You've always pampered
me without any qualms
just the same,
my sorrows have clouded me
Life is taking
a different turn
Mustache Man!
you'll be there
to guide me always
with you gone,
I have a unanswered questions
In all that is seen,
I will look for your face
your lovely face...
-Ey, Sai
-Hmmm.
Men have decided to visit HM's
house during the lunch break
we shall tag along too.
Ok!
Ey-- look over there
it's not even dusk since
her father's demise
she's already at the school.
She's a weird woman.
Stone-Hearted!
Dear...
...you made my favourite curry
It was delicious.
Tomorrow make your
specialty chicken pulav--
--I feel like having it.
Dear, are you stressed out?
Ah-- now Dad's gonna treat you
close your eyes.
Take a deep breath.
Feel free...
Ok!
Bye, dear.
I love you, Daddy.
Are students ready
for their exam?
I too pecked you
for a stone-hearted.
You have every
right to be angry.
Sir, just like you asked--
--we settled it with your
brother-in-law at Dindivanam.
-Your work will be done
-Thank you.
-Father-in-law
-What's the status?
I just got done with the job.
your timing was perfect.
The deal is done.
Not even a student can
write the exam tomorrow.
That's great.
Students, you guys are
ready to write your exams
you're going to
face many changes.
But I have a penitence
the year is about to
end, since I got here.
I never did any work.
She never worked?
I pushed you guys to study.
I pushed them to
teach you guys.
If you gain victory,
it's the result of your hard work
In case, if something goes wrong
I'm fully responsible for it.
I envy looking at few
teachers over here.
The books he selects
for the students
if its read in full,
he rewards them with 100 rupees.
He stands by the notion,
that books can change the society.
Practical skills of their sort--
--is equal to Noble thesis.
An entire Maths formula--
--he's turns them into a song
and makes the students sing it.
My only penitence is
that only a handful
teachers are available.
In spite of advanced technology,
you people are backward.
In Govt.Medical College, not even 1%
is allotted to Govt.School students.
And in Govt.
Engineering colleges is less than 5%.
Students who are below poverty
line study at Govt. Schools.
Just 50% reservation for
their higher education
we can eradicate
the poverty line.
But I'm unsure, what is the Govt's
idea of eradicating the poverty.
If that's the case
how long will be our run?
Based on your scores
the world is waiting
to grade you.
Just like finger prints,
everyone has peculiar talents.
Only if you discover
it, this is possible.
My best wishes, to
everyone for the exams.
It was a meticulous plan, madam
the students you cleared,
can't write exams tomorrow.
Good Morning, Teacher.
Hurry up, we're getting late.
Madam, please sign here
the question papers have arrived.
-How many?
-Not sure, how many...
Hurry up, it's Hall No.7
-Let's meet after the exam
-Ok.
Give to her...
...pass it on
Just look at the questions
put down your number
Ey-- why haven't we got
our question papers yet?
Madam, please can you move.
I'm running late.
Everyone, please sit down.
Please pass this over
as I was late, you'll get
extra ten minutes, don't panic.
Father-in-law,
how is the victory treating you
Damn it! They're writing the
exam, get to the court
How did this happen?
"It was a meticulous plan, madam
the students you cleared,
can't write exams tomorrow."
Dad,
Head Master is on the phone.
Hello Sir, how are you?
I'm good, how are you?
I need a favor from you.
Favor!?
Please tell me.
There's an issue with our
students in writing their exams.
Please, you have to
speak to the Minister.
Officers can't surpass
Minister's orders.
I'm not able to turn
down your request.
I'm going to talk to
him after 7 years.
That too,
it's only for Geetha Teacher.
Thank you.
-Father-in-law
-What happened?
We didn't get a stay
order from high court.
They pushed it by 6 weeks.
Summer vacations.
Hearings!
Did we lose?
We didn't!
I'll go to the bench, get a hold
of someone and get the judgment.
You don't have to worry.
I'll go to extremes to win this.
[OVERLAPPING CHATTER]
Vanakkam Head Master,
how are you?
I thought of coming
to your house--
--it's a pity that your father
is no more to offer me tea.
Deepest condolences.
I came down to thank you.
I was damn lazy--
--but you turned me very agile.
By making me work.
moreover, you're standing
in accordance with me.
When the school
reopens next year
not only you,
but the students who you cleared
won't step inside the school.
More than working for the people
Govt. employees work
for us diligently.
I'll take a leave.

But the news of his demise--
--got to me a month later
The time when we were in love
more than we spoke about us
we discussed how
to run a school.
But now,
it's just me at this school.
He did mention,
that will bring a girl like a Queen.
That's how he used to call me.
Rani-- Geetha Rani!
That's me.

Don't, please be quiet.

Won't you listen to us?

[NEWS] At R-Puthur Govt.
High School
Geetha Rani,
a Head Master at that school
was arrested around 10:30am
at the school premises.
The year before
she joined the duty
students who did not
clear the 9th grade
she misused her authority
has been accused that she let
them write the 10th grade exams.
But the people, teachers & the
students of that town, refuse to agree
and in order to get their
Head Master released
have been protesting gathered
in front of the Police station.
-Sir, Vanakkam.
-Vanakkam.
-Who are you?
-I spoke over the phone.
Oh, please come inside
for two minutes.
Not sure,
what they're planning to do
but that doesn't
mean, we can give up.
Madam,
we couldn't get anything to eat.
Please adjust with this.
Is it enough for
everyone outside?
I don't want, thanks.
One minute.
Sir, it's all school kids.
How can I beat them up?
Place is surrounded by media.
We'll wait till morning.
You will have to figure it out.
Tomorrow the results
of 10th grade are out.
I want to see the results.
If you're here,
it won't be an issue.
But I'm sure, they'll take you
to Central Jail by tonight.
Out there it's not possible.
Hmmm.
Oh, is it?
Fine, we'll handle it.
Sir, they've collected
all the documents
in order to decide if a 9th
grade student is pass or fail
HM, CEO, DEO...3-4 gazetted
officers would've attested it.
Even the court can't
change its course.
But if a woman has
done it all by herself
it's a huge mistake.
In these cases,
first Departmental actions are taken
but if the court has taken
an action skipping it
please understand the severity,
we can't do anything.
It's past 11:30pm
neither students nor
their parents have left
they refuse to negotiate
with the officers
and are very stubborn on getting
their Teacher released from jail
let's wait and watch,
if their protest turns successful.
