I'll talk as I feel like.

- Hey, what are you saying?

I'll say what I feel like.

- Didn't I tell you?

Stupid!

- See on top.

He'll cheat only like this.

Hey, stop!

When we yearn for shade

if there is not even a single tree..

..how to run the family?

- Yes, by cutting tree..

..they make door and

window and keep that open.

After that they say there is no air.

How will they get air?

Ekambaram, do you remember?

During childhood we have collected

left over paddy coming here..

..for buying top from Annachi shop.

Is it correct?

- Brother!

That time women used

to sell idly and jaggery dosa.

For the leftover food dogs used

to wander in groups.

Today we are roaming like dog

for eating.

Tell me, Sumathi!

- He is unable to hear from his left ear.

He is not allowing me to check.

On inserting finger..

..it is wet and stinking.

- Give the phone to him.

Take it.

Father!

- From when are you not able to hear?

From yesterday night.

- Give the phone to mother.

Sumathi!

- Now what to do?

Evening we'll go to the doctor.

I'm unable to save even

a single day's wage.

Ear pain...

On going to Shanthi doctor's nursing

home totally Rs 1000 will get spent.

Is it Shanthi doctor?

Even for a thorn prick

she'll tell to come for 3 days.

You are saying it is ear pain.

She is sure to grab

whatever you have.

What is it? - For whom are

you spending?

You are getting irritated as if you

are spending for my brothers.

Sumathi, come and stand

in this sunlight. You'll know.

I have drunk 4 bottles of water

till now. I couldn't pee even a drop.

Okay. Don't get tensed.

We need not take him to doctor.

You get medicine from medical store.

If that doesn't work, we'll go to doctor.

No, we'll go to ENT doctor.

No. We have to give cake order

for daughter.

There is no time for that.

Hold this. I'll get medicine

for Muthu's ear pain.

Is there medicine for ear pain?

- For whom?

For my son.

- Is there discharge from ear?

There is wetness in ear.

On inserting finger and smelling it

is stinking. - Which is your native?

Katoor.

- Katoor...

There is no pond or lake there.

Only salt field is there, right?

He is playing only in that.

- Salt water will always create trouble.

Get that ear drops.

Put three drops for three times a day.

- How much, sir?

Give Rs 25.

Give the phone.

You are always playing with this.

Don't sleep. Ear drops has to be put.

Remember that.

See how this Muthu is swimming

in water.

Go away.

Why are you getting irritated?

The one who doesn't allow him to play

kabaddi, will he allow him to swim?

Tell him to study.

If the leg gets trapped in the hands,

and if it is a proper lock trap,

the leg won't budge even an inch.

It'll be like the

grip of monitor lizard.

The hands were strong

but the mind was not.

Did kabaddi give a livelihood?

Think of agriculture,

don't have a bit of land.

Unaccustomed painting

job is now our livelihood.

If even that was not there...

Tell him to study.

The one who didn't allow you to play

kabaddi and who didn't allow him to swim...

..will he allow him to study?

It is a belief.

Education will earn money to the

one who wants to earn money.

If it earns respect for us,

it is enough.

Your story is different

and his story is different.

Don't repeat your old story and

stop his wish.

If you want, you see video one

more time.

What will you tell? I saw

directly.

When he was inside water my

mind counted more than 300.

Others know that he

is not a child but fish.

I'm telling such a talented

boy to leave all this and study.

It is not because I'm a fool.

I'm not jealous of him.

I do love him.

If so let this mouth burn.

Why are you so fed up?

You are awake, right?

Kabaddi...Kabaddi...

Kabaddi...Kabaddi...

Kabaddi...Kabaddi...

Shall I show it to father?

- What?

It looks like helmet.

Get this for me.

- Is it a helmet?

Is it to stop the water entering

the ears while swimming, right? - Yes.

Don't ask for note and bag.

If you continue to take bath in lake..

..and stream your other ear

will also get infected.

You go and get the curry.

It is all due to you.

- Only in night I told.

Don't scold the children. Don't

keep scolding them unnecessarily.

You mind your business.

Do you have more concern than me?

Pour.

The salt is too much.

You rub.

Muthu, it is enough

if you know how to swim..

..and save yourself

if you fall in water.

Swimming alone is not life.

Do you understand?

You are going on nagging.

I'll say something.

You come here.

You keep scolding the children.

You are also not ordinary.

Till your ear gets cured

you must bathe only like this. Come.

In future you must bathe only in this.

This is what is pond, lake and sea

for you. If you bathe somewhere else..

..and incur ear pain,

I myself will stamp you.

Look at the cake. See this.

This is for me.

What are you seeing there?

See here.

That is vanilla. It is Rs 500.

This is Rs 600.

That is strawberry costing Rs 650.

This.

- This one...

This is Rs 350.

- Give this one.

Should I write the name?

What is the name?

Dhansika.

- Should I write in Tamil or English?

Tamil.

Take it.

Write in English.

Don't you know English?

Is it government school?

- Don't you know Tamil?

Only if you write in English,

they'll write in Tamil.

Dhansika.

What is your connection

with that family?

We'll fight. We'll fight!

- We'll fight. We'll fight!

We'll fight till we get water!

- We'll fight till we get water!

Give water... give water!

- Give water... give water!

Give drinking water!

- Give drinking water!

Sir! Collector on the way.

Okay.

Greetings, madam!

We need not go this way.

Why?

- Knowing that you are coming this way..

..Thevampatti people are waiting

to block the path.

For what are they protesting?

- Water problem.

Isn't there any water tank or drinking

water plan?

There are 2 tanks, madam!

Ground water descended

and turned as salt water.

Okay you sit in vehicle.

We'll meet the Thevampatti

people and go.

Madam, you need to reach

the function by 10 o'clock.

You cancel that.

Only on meeting the public we'll know what

work the officers have done. Come.

We'll fight. We'll fight!

- We'll fight. We'll fight!

We'll fight. We'll fight!

- We'll fight. We'll fight!

We'll fight till we get water!

- We'll fight till we get water!

Give water... give water!

- Give water... give water!

Don't you know how to give respect

when a big officer comes?

We gave respect to all officers.

But no officer gave respect

to our problem.

Go.

- Madam, it is very hot.

They are also standing in heat. Go.

First you listen to what I'm saying.

Your rightful problem shouldn't

turn as a nuisance to others.

See there,

how many vehicles are waiting.

In that school going

and office going..

..why even hospital going people

will be there.

Please disperse!

- It is not possible.

We won't disperse till we get water.

You can attack us

by keeping your police.
