'8 Bullets'

No one saw it, right?

Better to dispose the boy

Where do his parents live?

He's an orphan

'8 Year Old Boy Stabs

His Employer To Death'

Eat this sweet

Why that blank look?

Today is my birthday

I don't even know why

But I felt like sharing this only with you

What happened?

I am innocent, sir

They conspired and

pinned it on me

I understand

Try to move on in life

Do you know it is tougher to

survive out there than in here?

You don't have to worry

about your food and lodging

You are a good student

You will make it big in life

I'll guarantee you that

I know a few policemen

I'll talk to them and

make you a policeman, okay?

- That's one job I don't want, sir

- Why...?

- I don't want to be a policeman

- Why, my boy?

Aiyo! I don't want that job, sir

He comes and goes

at his own free will

- Total waste, sir

- I agree, sir

He doesn't poke his nose

in anyone's affairs

How can you support him, sir?

You'll pick up a quarrel only with

someone who keeps to himself

Inspector wants to see you, sir

Sir, Nalla Thambi is in Chennai now

Is he out on bail?

There are 15 cases against him

But half the time he's out free

Deals with mercenaries totally

But he seems to have

a big ace up his sleeve, sir

Our men will follow him in mufti, sir

Give us the weapon permit

Das, do you have to

report all this to me?

It's my duty, sir

Sathya, sit down

How is work atmosphere?

Okay, sir

No problem

I believe you don't take a cut

in the bribes in our station?

Accept it gracefully

What's the use

if you don't earn now?

- I want to lodge a complaint

- Go and see the writer

- Where is the writer?

- What do you want?

No...I want to file a complaint

Over there

- Sir, good morning

- What's the problem?

I want to file a complaint, sir

So what's the problem?

A chap used cuss words on me

Like what?

Only if you tell me

I can take action

- EfF word, sir

- Huh?

He said, 'Eff you!'

This isn't such a serious cuss word

Sir, foul language is bad

whatever the word is

No one has abused me like this, sir

- Accept my complaint, sir

- I'll do so

Go to the stationery shop next door

Get me 2 reams of paper and 10 pens

Go, man

Buying paper, huh?

Order tea for all of us

Don't worry

I'll sort it out

No need to talk

File a First Information report

That's only for big cases

The inspector also has to sign it

I'll talk to the inspector, sir

'Who spoke about me now?'

I have a typewriter

outside the municipality office

I type application forms

A chap walked up to me, sir

I typed an application form for him too

He handed me

a 500 rupee note

I asked him if he didn't

have Rs 20 on him?

He was so rude to me

It blew up into a brawl

He said 'Eff you', sir

Don't say that word

in our inspector's presence

Sir, he is the one

who derided me

How could you abuse him?

Emergency work

I was so tense

- What emergency?

- Business, sir

- What business do you do?

- Jewelry, sir

You won't carry notes

of smaller denominations?

If he says he doesn't have...

...will you come here to complain?

Apologize to him

Sathya, take it

Take it, I say

Rs 15000 down the drain

because of you

Eff you, son of a gun!

Bro, don't worry

That sister is back

If you tell her

she'll telecast it

Sister, you interviewed me

the other day, right?

When will it be telecast?

Very soon

I'll let you know

'News 8 strongly condemns

the injustice meted to this gentleman'

'Inspector Gunasekaran and

his team responsible for this act...'

'...should be condemned and severe

action should be taken against them'

'Meera Vasudevan

for News 8'

Will you publicize it on TV?

Get lost!

If I see you again on this road-

Poor man, sir

Hey! Go...clear out

How atrocious!

Hey! Don't crowd around here

Clear out right now

Are you deaf or what?

Clear out

Did I hit him?

Me...hit?

Sir, don't pretend

What's that word called?

Hahn! Confusion!

I went there to inquire

And you're accusing me of hitting him

Please don't lie

So many people saw you hit him

If they saw...

...call one of them as witness

Send them to me

Let's see who has the guts

- Please leave, madam

- What's your problem, sir?

Threatening me?

I'm from the media

Think you can

get away scot-free?

Hey, I've bigger issues to handle

Can't waste time for this

Do what you can, get lost!

I'll complain to the commissioner

Please calm down and

listen to me, madam

Just forget this happened

How can I let go, sir?

He hit a man

in broad daylight

If you hadn't telecast this,

it wouldn't have gone out of hand

He has broken his typewriter

He and his wife depend on it

for their livelihood

What did you say your name was?

How are you so different

from the rest of the bunch?

Different as in?

As in being a good person

Nothing of that sort

Instead of magnifying an issue by arguing

might as well find a quick solution

And in the bargain

no one should lose

For what?

Good you told me about

his broken typewriter

Poor man!

Sir, you seem to be

a very interesting character

Can I interview you?

Why me?

Don't refuse

For a change let the media report

about the police force positively

Don't stir up new trouble for me

Are you on Facebook or Twitter?

At least I can share

the online article

I'm not on Facebook

I don't possess a Smart phone

Most unusual

Keep it safe

Very soon the museum

will archive it!

No one in the station teases you?

Which is your hometown?

Is this just small talk?

Or is this an interview?

No...no...I'll interview you

when you give me an appointment

Where did you study?

Juvenile reformatory

I didn't get that

What did you say?

You heard it right

Why...?

What did you do?

Murder

Inspector wants to see you, sir

I believe you got a new

typewriter for that old man

You have a heart of gold

like evergreen hero MGR

Am I the villain?

Or are you proving

what I did was wrong?

Showing off, huh?

Nothing of that sort, sir

Youngster that you are...

...you flipped for that girl, huh?

Don't be crass, sir

You're staying away

from our norms here

I've been watching you

All the policemen here

are mad at you

Inspector called you, sir

He's having a cushy life here

I'm assigning him

to duty outside the station

Let him follow Nalla Thambi hereafter

You think this is some game?

Do you know how

big an offense this is?

Your life is gone for a toss!

I can't be of any help

I'm an ordinary man

Not a saint!

Poor boy, sir

Sathya...?

Come inside

Listen, I'm furious

as hell at you

I'll help you for Das's sake

If a gun is lost, I must

inform the control room

If I do so, your life is finished

I'll give you an extra day

Try to find the gun

and save your life

But don't expect

any support from here

Department shouldn't know

Sathya, 2 other passengers have lost

their wallets in that same 29C bus

I inquired in S2 police station

I believe it's a pickpocket group

Don't worry

We'll nab them

'Chennai pickpocket group

falls under 1 network'
