'I bow to:
Breaking the barriers

of caste, religion, clan

'The pain of rain to alleviate

Mankind to elevate'

'The power of youth right

and the force to unite'

'To my father of the

celluloid world'

'The truth to be told

as events unfold'

'Father'

Dhayala!

Our family will soon

have one more addition

Goddess Shakthi Our family deity!

Make sure my children and grandchildren are

hale and healthy wherever they may be

- Which month? - third

'She is slightly anemic I'll

prescribe some tablets'

She's a distant

relative of mine

If parents are blood

relatives, % chance baby

will be born with some

defect it seems?

Don't jinx it The

baby is fine now

That's enough

Must never step inside

any hospital, Malar

Good food is the

best medicine

Eat nutritious food

Be active, do plenty of

household chores

Be happy Pamper your mind

You'll have a safe delivery

Have you thought of a name?

Ilavarasi Singamperumal

if it's a girl

Boy means Chakravarthy

Singamperumal

At three months, he'll turn over At

6 months, he will sit up

At nine months run

1year, he'll talk

- I didn't deny this

- Don't butt in

At twenty one months pre-school

At 33 months LKG

I'll ensure he stands first in10th grade

12th grade he'll achieve it by himself

Study MBBS here

Send him abroad for

higher studies

He will complete his MS

at Oklahoma University

And find a job there

I will get him married to a Tamil girl

who has studied there just like him

She should talk

Tamil fluently

Both of them will land here with a fat

bank account and the proud NRI tag

I will buy a piece of

land in the suburbs

And build a hospital

for them to-

Build and then what?

Instead of letting a toddler

walk, run or play freely

killing his creativity, contentment,

compassion as a humanE being

Raise him like a robot He'll end

up being depressed and kill-

Why be so pessimistic?

Don't stuff your dreams into

our unborn baby, Malar

That soul has a desire, dream,

life of his or her own too

We should be a pillar of strength

for our baby, that's all

(nursery rhyme)

This isn't for my ears!

The baby should hear

'It is the th 7month now, why is it your

parents haven't come to take you?'

'- So keen to pack me off!

- What was our pre-nuptial agreement?'

Oh yes!!

Don't tread so hard

Gently like a bed of roses

- Only then the baby will be a garland!

- Is this okay, dear?

Here, dear

- Hi, akka - Didn't go for a walk?

Poor lady!

He is torturing her

Don't react to all that

(phone rings)

Drink up this herbal

brew, dear

'Hello, uncle How are you?'

Malar, your father

is on the line

I won't let you hassle my wife You

can be her father or whoever!

I will call you once

the baby is born

Stand a mile away, look and

vanish into thin air!

I don't want any of your clan

to come and see the baby

Labor of love for years!

When you wake up look

at God's picture

If you're bored look at me!

(loud scream of pain)

Don't be scared Push

a little harder

Take me to the hospital

They will cut you open

and ruin your health

Shouldn't you lead a

healthy normal life?

Maaa!

Step outside, son

What was our pre-nuptial

agreement?

You agreed to pay for

the pregnancy

I don't want my wife or baby

I will run away somewhere

What happened? Why this delay?

Nurse!

How many times will you call me?

Are you delivering the baby?

- You're so perturbed

- Of course I'll be

I have specified a time

My baby should be born at

that particular time

Okay, fine

'4 patients at the

same time'

I don't care about that I want

my baby delivered first

'Uncle, tell me, what did we decide

about the pre-nuptial agreement?'

Just hang up For God's sake

I think this is wrong But

it is your call!

If anything happens

to my sister-

Get lost!

You won't be hearing

the end of this!

You refuse to admit her in a hospital

with proper medical aid

You are being so damn stubborn!

(newborn baby's cry)

Come and see your son

Welcome, Dr Chakravarthy

Singamperumal

'Shakthi, our grandson should

inherit your good qualities'

What is my grandson's name?

Our family deity's name

You do the honors

Vetri Easwaran

Everybody is taking

me for a ride

- What was our pre-nupt?

- Aiyay! Come on

'Your father to foot

the bill-'

Get his school admission

right now

I'll bring him over when

he is 18 months

Boy baby I'm really happy

Should bring him up to

love our society

'How will I get Rs 20000,?'

Your folks didn't pay up

the hospital bill

At least they can pay

the school fees?

Aiyay! Give it to me

What was our pre-nupt agreement?

This man?

Hold him

Hey! Come here

What?

You seem to be following me

for the past months

In this same T-shirt!

What was your pre-nuptial

agreement?

You won't tell me?

Sonny?

Why don't you tell me?

Why go to a school to play?

My mother and you are at

home all the time

I come home after work Let

him play with us

I knew you would say this

Don't I have the right to

choose my son's school?

100%, Malar

But why trouble a toddler to

tick your wish list?

Let him play till he

is 5-6 years old

Then he can go to the

school of your choice

I studied 1st grade

only when I was 6

No wonder you're like this!

My bloody fate!

Listening to my father, I agreed to

marry you and I'm stuck for life

Hey! What happened?

'So disgusting!'

- Shouldn't people we know respect me?

- Those people are lazy bums!

They don't even take

care of their kids

So what?

I have to face them!

Not you, right?

I have to talk to them

I have to cross their

paths daily

'Shouldn't I retain my

self respect?'

Aiyo! Malar

It isn't self respect

It is conceit

To keep up with the Joneses, should we

lock our child within walls?

What is your final decision?

Rs 20000, is the fees

My son has to study there

Is it possible or not?

Not possible

- My dear son? - What, ma?

Why don't you just agree?

I have given in too

often, ma

'Do what you want'

'- As you wish!

- Started her tantrums again'

'Why do you break

everything, dear?'

'You will only support

your son'

I'll get you toys

worth Rs 25000

You can play at

home with me

'No one respects me

in this house'

'Listen to me, my dear'

'Why should I live?'

'Aiyo! Dhayalaaa!'

'Look what she has done

to herself?!'

'What happened?'

(child crying)

'Appa!'

Daddy!

We live in a beautiful world,

amidst good hearted people

The world exists

thanks to them

This world is god-awful

Do not trust a single soul, they will

dig your grave while you're awake

If you look at anyone, smile and

accept them as your friend

Just a smile and they will dance

on top of your head!

When you eat, share your food

with the person next to you

If anyone gives you food

don't eat even a morsel

They will kidnap you, rob you of

your kidney and make you beg

Love everyone

So as to not prosper, huh?

Love just your own self

Your father's advice

sounds good

His father is scaring us

Whom do we follow?

What is your father's advice?
