'They target only wallets and mobiles'

'In less than 24 hours

they sell the mobiles in Andhra'

'If we can get the gang leader

we can nab that boy'

Hey! Wait

Who are you?

I want to meet Bhaskar

- Which Bhaskar?

- Blade Bhaskar!

I'll bash you

That's how it is

in the police records

Bro, police at our door step

'Police, huh?'

Hope you've been greasing

their palms regularly?

Yes, bro

Then why are they here?

- How many have come?

- Only 1, bro

Your boys

...have made a mistake

- What...?

- Don't pretend you don't know

Good for you

if you accept it yourself

I know very well

you did it

I have no proof

That's why I'm here alone

Sir, I accept

Let's not blow it up

I'll cough up the truth

My gang killed Viji

I told my boys to plan and

do the job at the right time

But they were over enthusiastic

Chopped him to pieces

and threw him in the sea

I warned them right then

Tell me whom to discuss this with,

I'll close the deal

Tell me the amount

you have in mind

I didn't come for that

This doesn't concern me at all

He has flicked an item

which doesn't belong to him

I've come to retrieve it

Now I get it

I've been advising Vinod

like a broken record

Don't mess with

the politician's mistress

You'll be in a soup

if the matter leaks

But he turned a deaf ear

My bond with him as my brother, I had

to add to my sin-list by pimping for him

I want to meet one of

your pickpocket boys

Teenager

Must be 14 or 15 years old

I left that field 3 years ago

Hey, won't it be 3 years?

Must be, bro

Hey! Stop, bro is calling you

Bro, he left

Coughing up A to Z

not finding out who he is

What, I say?

They work their butt out

Only 20 bucks in their wallet!

Same amount in this too

Look at this

How did you get this?

It was tucked behind

a chap's back and I flicked it

Why did you?

Are you mad?

How long do we starve, flicking

wallet, phone and petty cash?

Felt like going to

the next level, that's why

Hey, this is a police gun

What are you saying?

Number is written in paint

Haven't you seen it

in the station?

(phone ringing)

- Hello...?

- Sir, Meera here

Remember I wanted to interview you

We met the other day

I don't know if I can ask you this

But I have no one else to help me

Please tell me, sir

My gun is missing

A pickpocket stole it

Do you know the boy's name?

I don't know, bro

Okay, let's give it a shot

Why did you bring this?

They came in search of this

I can see you're hiding something

I can help only if you open up

Hey! Go away

Nothing to worry

I know all the boys

I'll find out who it is

and inform you

I don't have time, sir

You'll get your gun

by tonight, okay?

Don't worry, you'll get it

The man we met was

a big time rowdy

His wife passed away

He has reformed now

He knows everyone

He'll find it for you, trust me

Thanks a ton, Meera

Are you from Chennai?

No, Nagercoil

- Your parents?

- In our hometown

They don't like me

working in the media

You're staying in-

I've rented a room

Did I say something wrong?

Of course not

Meera...er...I-

I want to tell you something else

I didn't murder anyone

I was punished

for a crime I didn't commit

Why didn't you tell me

the other day?

That is because-

It won't occur to us to go around

defending ourselves or explaining, right?

That's why

I was worried you're talking to me

because I'm a murderer!

So I wanted to clear

any misapprehension

In life if one half is down-hill

the other half will be all roses

You've suffered a lot

Hereafter you'll lead

a happy life, trust me

"Now...like the way I feel now; hereafter

won't my life change for the better?"

"Won't my dream, wishful thinking too

extend as reality, totally true?"

"My heart to its rim brimming

Overflows overwhelming"

"My soul and senses within, in tune

something sways, no longer immune"

"Till eternity

This will do for me"

"No more sorrows

In all our tomorrows"

"A fragrance in the air so new"

"This is enough, this will do"

"A big cloud in the blue sky"

"A tiny drizzle in my eye"

"A wave of love washes over me"

"This is enough to last till eternity"

"Years of my life ticked fast

without a soul to share my past"

"Love-struck and protocols down

My feet have a mind of their own"

"For the 1st time I see the sky so bright"

"I am walking along with moonlight"

"Along with her when I walk

wont the path extend as I talk?"

"Like I feel now, one day

will you give me a forever-replay?"

"Will you become daintily

a thin drapery to cover me?"

"In solitudes prison diffident

like a penance, years I spent"

"You opened the door shut tight

I woke up in that bright light"

"This is enough, this will do"

"Till infinity for me and you"

Bro, this is Dharmalingam here

Tell me, sir

I asked all my boys

None of my boys flicked your gun

Pickpocket!

Why did you flick this?

I'll use this and

become a big shot, bro

(mocking laughter)

How...say it once more?

He'll become a big shot it seems

Can I become part of your gang, bro?

Include big bro in your gang

He even has a gun

Any problem he faces...

...just 'bang bang'

He is our next 'Revolver Rita'!

Fat hopes, I swear!

That policeman came here

only to enquire about this

Bhaskar here

Hello, sir

The boy's name is Prabha

My men will show you his house

He lives close by

but a little interior

Kumaran colony

Hey, show them the place

Thank you very much

Why did you squeal, bro?

Keep quiet

Unnecessarily we've got involved!

Whom do you think will support you?

That chap has been looking

for me in this entire area

Then...?

Police is no joke!

How can you escape his hawk eye?

If you flick the gun,

is it all over and done with?

They'll nab you very easily

What to do now?

Go and fall at his feet

Tell him you took it by mistake

Hand it over to him and scoot

Then it's up to you

As if you'll listen to me

I will-

Sir, I flicked it by mistake

Please forgive me

Do you know the repercussions?

My friends warned me if I get caught

by the police, they will bash me up

I didn't know it would backfire

Don't kill me

Return my gun

I had this doubt

when he landed here

I knew it was something serious

I sold it to a thug in Sowcarpet, sir

Did Prabha blabber in fear?

Whom did you sell it to?

I'll...sh...show you, sir

Meera, go home

- What...?

- I've brought a client

Bro, he's a policeman

I am a policeman

What will you get by shooting me?

Shoot me if you're man enough

My gun is with you

Give it to me

I'll leave immediately

I'll let you off the hook

What's wrong?

I sold that gun

only half an hour ago

- Whom did you sell it to?

- I didn't get any details from him

I quoted Rs 150000

It is higher than the market rate

He paid and left, sir

Drink your coffee

From yesterday your internship is over

But in comparison

with your batch...

You're saying

I don't work here anymore

Is that right?

Your work is satisfactory

But your ideology

Topics you choose

are problematic I think

Child labor
