Chennai 600028 II: Second Innings Page #12

None of you followed me

Let us go fight

Kutty, listen

They are all armed outside

You have a girlfriend

These guys are married

- I don't want to die a bachelor

- What is this, Cheenu?

I asked you to leave

Please clear out

Don't disturb my work

Good afternoon

Bodimettu Police station

- 'I'm sports minister speaking'

- Sir...sir?

'Is the inspector there?'

He is here

1 minute

Sir, minister is on the line

Heard you are threatening

my boys not to play cricket there

No, sir

Not true at all

Those boys are born

to play cricket

'I have myself handed the bat

and asked them to play'

They breathe, talk, walk,

eat, drink, live on cricket

'Not allowing them to play

is a national crime'

I'm not stopping them, sir

Give the phone to

Shark's team captain

I want to talk to him

Sports minister

Who is the captain?

Me, sir

'Bowling or fielding?'

My dear boy Karthik

How are you?

- I am fine, sir

- 'Years since we met'

Yes, sir

It's been ages

- How is everyone?

- All fine, sir

'You must come back

to Chennai with the cup'

Sure, sir

Did they torture you

in the station?

No, sir

Pass the phone

to the inspector

Sir...?

Ask them to come out

We'll teach them a lesson

- Hey, man

- Sir...?

- How many overs are they playing?

- 15 overs match

- 15 overs?

- Yes

15 overs means

6 balls an over

- Inform those boys

- Okay, sir

I will sponsor

all the 90 balls!

You're providing them with security

instead of thrashing them

Those boys have clout

in high places

Try this idea of mine

Defeat them in cricket

and chase them out

Don't I know to do that crap?

From our department...

...I have sent 2 of

my best men with them

They won't let them go

anywhere near that girl

Whatever it is, we will

be informed at once

Don't worry, Maruthu

It will all work out fine

I wasn't aware of

your true blue love story

My sister will cry

I'll somehow plan and

get you married, bro

I'll make sure you get married

Sshhh! My wife is calling

I'll mark attendance

and come

You seem to be well linked

in high places

If you can find me a posting

and get me settled in Madras...

...I would like you to know

I'm very happy indeed

I am addressing this

to you, my dear bo-

My wife is calling

You carry on

Think it over, Kutty

God is giving you

a good opportunity

Like these married morons...

...do you want that torturous life?

I mulled over it, baby

I have to experience it

Then what's up?

Open...open the bottle!

"No one at home to tattle

Dude, open the bottle!"

"No one to oppose or take a stand

No fear with a bottle in hand"

"No one to ask us why or when?

Nitwit, why think twice to open?"

"We are beginning again

Our 2nd innings game"

"No ending from now on

House party and sheer fun"

"Trending throughout the night

House party with pure delight"

"If no wife to nag night or day

we'll party in-house, hurray!"

"Lifelong it's a given

House party 24x7"

"When she's a girlfriend

the kick is different"

"The kick turns iffy

when she becomes wifey"

"Intoxication will stick

like a friend thick o' thick"

"8 directions will echo

fun with friends ditto"

"Wives tend to be..."

Drink...take another gulp

Sorry, machan

I took a high pitch

My dear bro?

Pitch as in which 'shruti'?

Lakshman Shruti, music troupe!

"Wives are hell's teaser"

"Tipsiness is heaven's trailer"

"Dive into the bottle for a breather!"

"Hereafter and in all ways"

"Forever and ever always"

"This has no ending

House party extending"

"All night through trending

House party never ending"

"If no wife to nag nag always

house party no 2 ways"

"For a lifetime it's a given

House party 24x7"

'V'll Win XI' team from

Anaikaraipatti presents'

'...Nippon Paint Cup

major cricket tournament'

'Teams competing

in today's match are...'

'...Chennai Sharks and

Usilampatti Bad Boys'

'TVS Star City is

the sponsor of this match'

I don't know why, machan

My hands have been

trembling since this morning!

This early in the morning?

Let's finish the match

and booze this evening

Not that withdrawal symptom

It's a different feeling

Don't know how to express

'Usilampatti Bad Boys team

is entering the field'

(They aren't part of the team)

(They are new players)

He's right, they have

brought in new players

They haven't played

in this tournament

He's Dr Raju Sundaram's son!

Tamil Nadu 1st division player!

How can they

bring in professionals?

They aren't Usilampatti Bad Boys

Chennai Bad Boys!

He's responsible for everything

After they hit 10 runs,

we snack on short eats

What's happening here?

Their team has all new players

Not played in this tournament

Already they have-

This isn't right, bro

They are Division players

Their players are

professionals from Chennai

I'm also from Chennai

I've never seen them in Chennai

- What, Maruthu?

- Correct, bro

Moron, got the jitters, huh?

Scared you'll lose?

If you consider yourself men,

prove it in the ground

We'll show our power

You show your true colors, go

Go...don't show off!

Don't create a ruckus now

Show your skill in the field

Carry on, old man

When you buy these short eats

make sure it has plenty of peanuts

(You're hand in glove with them)

(You won't prosper)

Who is he?

Foreign player?

Only a local fellow

He resembles Zimbabwe

player Danal Thangavelu!

He's the watchman

for our town

I've seen you somewhere

Must be on TV

Do you act in sitcoms?

No, Indian Premier League

Sunrisers, Hyderabad

Hi uncle, how are you?

Don't call me 'uncle'

Uncle, it's such a big deal

Even at this age

you're playing cricket

Have you bought

a new bat for this match?

Sarcasm, huh?

The bat I won from you

is so lucky for me

Gives me runs by the dozen!

How about this?

You win this match

I'll return the lucky bat to you

- Will you keep your word?

- Uncle, you need to win first

You're very funny

'The way both the teams shoot red hot

furious glances at each other...'

'...it is evident their feud started

long ago, since Baahubali times!'

'So this match is like...'

'...the 'Battle of the Kalakeyas'

'For both sides it is

bound to be touch and go'

'This young elephant is unable to

pick up the coin from the ground'

'Toss was won by Bad Boys team'

Heads...batting or bowling?

Please go ahead and bat

'Pace bowlers of Anaikaraipatti will

play with a zip zap zooming speed'

'Also from our statistics...'

'...the chasing team'

'...has won 89.2% of the times'

'So on the whole, looks like

Usilampatti Bad Boys team...'

'...has a 'L' size chance

of winning the match'

'Chennai Sharks team...'

'...has 'small' size chance

of winning the match!'

'Giving foreign cheer girls

tremors of fear in their veins...'

'...our Kadagampatti's Kanaka's

'Karagatam' folk dance group'

'...has entered the ground'

'Match has just begun'

'From the sugarcane plot end belonging

to 'shrimp moustache' Ramasamy...'

'...the bowler whose name we don't know

bowls the 1st ball of this match'
