Why you are here?

A long story but I'll make it short.

Opposition Leader siva Reddy was killed

40 days ago, you may know that.

His killer ran away in a train,

nobody had seen him.

But the sp who chased him

saw him from behind.

so, when the train stopped

in Gudivada station,

sp fired at him seeing the

shirt he was wearing.

But instead of the killer

an innocent man lost his life.

We couldn't get his details,

but the compartment and seat

where his body was found,

we got this reservation

form from the Railways.

In it...

...it's written like this.

you are pardhu, aren't you?

Why someone else was

sitting in your seat?

When I got down in

Vijayawada for water,

the train went away.

I travelled by road from there.

I don't know who sat

there after that.

Before you got down

in Vijayawada,

did you find anyone suspicious

in the compartment?

I mean someone getting

into the train hurriedly,

spending long time

in the bathroom,

or tensed up always.

I didn't observe much.

No...you try to recollect.

you want it now...?

No...I don't want you to tell now,

you can call me whenever

you remember it.

I don't have your phone number.

No problem,

I'll give you my card.

you can call me as soon as...

He's a real man.

Men hit with anger

or with strength.

He hit dedicatedly.

Like building a fort...Iike breeding

new varieties of Rose plants...

Very carefully...he hit with rules.

He's man, my boy.

you've been calling him

a man for last few days.

If he's a man,

are we eunuchs then?

Just say yes,

I'll break his bones and use it

as fertilizer to our plants.

If we are short of fertilizers,

let's take loans,

stay away from him, boy.

you'll lose honour.

so, you say I can't beat him.

shall I kill him then?

Day after tomorrow there's

a festival in village,

everyone will visit the village,

he'll also come.

But he'll not go back.

There will be four sumos

waiting near the lake,

as soon as he crosses it,

we'll bump him off.

Luckily if he crosses it,

three more sumos will be

waiting near the hillock,

if he manges to escape

from there also,

I'll keep 5 sumos waiting for him

near the sugar cane fields.

Why so many vehicles?

To attend any marriage?

you need weapons to kill,

why do you need sumos

and Qualis vehicles?

What do you want me

to also then?

Do you want me to

get drunk like you?

Do you know how patient a Tiger will

be before pouncing on a deer?

so, how patient should we

be to hunt the Tiger itself?

Near hillocks and lakes...

Why don't you kill him

near the temple?

you'll get Goddess' blessing too.

No need of so many vehicles, boy.

petrol prices have also gone up.

All of you go in one vehicle.

Hey stop the noise man.

Did you see how dangerous

the silence is?

so...

The more you are silent,

the murder will be so violent.

Take off your hands.

Hey...you!

Isn't he Bujji? - yes.

What is his name?

- I don't know.

Will you come to kill without

knowing his name too?

Hey man!

Don't consider it a heroism

to beat my brother-in-law?

If you have guts beat Bujji.

Who is he?

Me...Nagasamudram Bujji

Come here...

What sir?

We are talking and you are...

Go!

Are you thinking why we

have come in one car?

Look around you.

Who are they?

Why?

so many to beat one man?

Is it too many?

He has come....

Oh My god!

He showed just his

other side to Naidu.

Bujji's chapter is over today.

Come on run away boys!

Hey No! This is not fair!

I'll not accept.

Hey I paid you Rs. 500!

I'll repay you tomorrow.

No use fighting him. Get her.

What is this?

Take her.

Why are you forcing me?

Dare to touch her.

Our family respects women.

What's all this?

What's all this nuisance in public?

Any man going to temple

will offer prayers.

Nobody will go to fight.

Already we have troubles

with Naidu.

Do we have to get beaten up

by his brother-in-law too?

He didn't get beaten up,

he beat them.

He irritated him...

Is he a little boy

to irritate and pacify?

What are you thinking?

Are you planning to run away

again if I scold you?

I'll break your legs.

Why are you laughing?

Have food.

Give me.

What's this?

Nothing, little bruises.

you are hurt severely and

call it little bruises.

I'll feed you,

spice will burn your wound.

No problem...eat.

Is her presence disturbing you?

Foolish girl! she doesn't know

to eat even if I feed her.

you eat.

you had food in the afternoon.

Did you add ghee to the food?

-Yes.

This chutney was prepared

by your aunt, it'll be delicious.

What son?

Is it for grandpa scolding you?

Have the memories of your running

away from home come back?

Why didn't you come all these

years if you were so sad?

I never knew home

would be so good.

If I knew it, I would have

come long back.

Come on eat.

What did you do then?

I thought of giving

kerchief to wipe off his tears.

Isn't it little too much?

That's why I didn't give.

you talk all this with us only.

you turn into a statute

on seeing him.

What to do?

He's so handsome.

He'll see you if you

too are beautiful.

Am I not beautiful?

For locals you are okay,

but he's from Gujarat.

Got it.

you want North lndian style, right?

Listen to me fully.

ADITYA:

Moon...moon...

Why do you insist on

living alone in winter?

Hey Boy come to me...

I'll be the warmth of fire

in the cold...

Look at me once...

you'll lose nothing...

Is kiss sour to you?

Talk to me...

If not fight with me...

show interest in me...

come...come...

you are torturing me

in my dreams...

I'm squeezing the

pillow in anger...

Dreams are in your head...

Don't say it and try

to come near me...

I've let down my shyness...

Am I not beautiful?

I'm watching your ploys on me...

I'm watching the rain of colours...

Do you like me so much?

I said everything,

still having doubts?

Come to my dream...

there's much to show you,

wanna see it?

A bud in the stem...

you are treasure house of tricks...

I was a home bird till yesterday...

Today I'm on cloud nine

because of you...

Don't make romantic

conversations with me....

I've heard it, my dear.

If you get any mischievous

idea on me...

I'll not say no to you...

I lose breath in your arms...

Have you come dressed

to kiss me?

Take it.

Give me fifty more,

I've to return empty.

Why to go empty?

Wait for ten days, I'll join you.

Goes empty...

Father!

- I bought it.

It's waiting in the railway

platform, go and get it.

Are you doing well?

I'm fine.

No Bp or diabetes.

but have come on Friday.

Give it to me.

I'll spend night in the station

and come tomorrow morning.

I didn't mean like that.

Remove your hand.

Don't get angry...please come.

please sit.

shall I arrange for your bath?

No, I'll jump into the well, fish out

my body later in the evening.

Why do you get angry

for everything?
