What happened?
Where has the power
of the common man gone?
Meenamma please!
I know you will
drop me after fifty.
Never!
Dont underestimate
I meanthe power of a common man.
Rahul, you carried
your wife to the temple...
Bravo.
Meena, he will take
care of you all your life.
What is he saying?
Hes saying that youve proved you will
look after me for the rest of our lives.
Ya.
Raaja, may you live
for a hundred years.
you both will live together
for seven generations.
Miss Subtitle. What?
They believe that the couples who
are able to complete this ritual...
God will keep them together
for the next seven lives.
Why havent you put kumkum?
What is he saying?
Without the vermillion
the ritual is not complete.
What?
You shouldve mentioned it earlier.
That means all of
this has gone to waste?
My hands and my hips
are hurting so much!
Put this kumkum my son.
Oh! Shes got it.
Thank you, aunty.
Thank you very much.
No, Rahul.
What happened?
This ritual wont be complete
without the vermillion.
These people will
take us out from here.
Come on and listen.
Hurry UP-
We have to descend 300 steps
andthis time you will help me.
My heart like a butteryhas
taken flight far away
My heart like a butteryhas
taken flight far away
With sweet fragrances
it has gone to stay
I have never felt
this waya ray of light
kisses the darkness away
My heart like a butteryhas taken
flight far away... Far, far away
Should I say it in wordsor
inscribe it on the sky
Praise be to you
My heart like a butteryhas
taken flight far away
With sweet fragrances
it has gone to stay
Your deep brown eyes
Tease me with a glance
Your soothing words can
Also put the birds in a trance
A little incomplete without you,
Now I feel complete
Your simplicity has
swept me off my feet
My heart like a butteryhas taken
flight far away... Far, far away
Should I say it in wordsor
inscribe it on the sky
Praise be to you
What happened Rahul?
What? I am packing.
Why?
Do you on living here
in this Vidamba village?
Look Meenamma, this is enough.
We will quietly slip
away without telling anyone.
Otherwise these people will
keep making us do weird rituals.
You also get ready. Let's go
No Rahul.
If we run away from here
then what will the villagers think?
They will think
that weve run away.
It's no big dea|.Come on.
You also get ready.
It's about the villagers
feelings Rahul.
They will feel hum!
What about when they find out
thatwe lied about being married?
Will they help
anyone the next time?
Will these people be
able to trust anyone again?
As it is...
Do you want to
stay here?Is that it?
I've noticed that ever since you've started
playing the role of being my wife...
you have been having a lot of fun.
Look, just because I
put vermillion on your head,
doesn't mean you start
getting serious about it.
That was a stupid ritual.
Rahul!
Only you can think this way!
Have you thought about
howthe villagers would feel?
Forget the village, have you thought
about your grandmother's feelings?
Didnt you say that your grandfather
had replaced your parents.
And what did you do?
You changed the place wherehe
wanted his ashes immersed.
Rameshwaram to Goa!
Yes! I changed the place.
Do you know why?
Because I...
I dont have any feelings.
I am bad...
actually... I am a very bad man!
Only you are very good,
these villagers are very good...
Grandma is. Grandpa is.
And a bad person has no
rightto stay amongst good people.
So I'll just go. You know what,
you keep this with you.
You are good, he was good.
All of you make a company
of good people and live together.
I am not going to live
in this village right.
Spare me please!
Even though I was mad,
I had a sinking feeling...
about leaving Meenamma all alone.
Youve come?
Rahul! This...
This is too much!
One minute, yes. One minute.
I'll come there.
Hi Tangaballi sir.
You and me...
No personal enmity here, sir.
Why take me,
go to Komban village and kill?
No point, sir.
Youve...
youve got your lady, sir.
Leave me.
I ready steady go, sir!
Sir!
What?
From my heart sir.
I am speaking from my heart sir.
Forgive me and forget me.
Throw it away, sir.
Do whatever you
wantwith your lady, sir.
Do... do get married.
Do what you want to do, sir.
Just let me go. Thank you.
Sir, shes your girl.
You can sing any song
you want to with her.
Now Meena is all yours, my friend.
Hey you!
You're a number stupid,
parasiteand an opportunist!
You are leaving me and running?
Try and understand.
Understand what?
That...
What that?
That only...
What that only?
I've played such a game...
that I fool the opponent
and the game comes into my hands.
To save you...
I've played a ruse.
So this was your strategy?
Since when did you becomebrave
enough to defend me?
Meena!
Washing powder, Meena!
What?
No matter how wicked I am,
I am human after all.
I thought to myself
that I must help you Meena.
Now did you understand
what I'm saying...
Meena!
Pick up the sickle that's...
right in front of
you and beside Tangaballi
Yes! I will take it.
I've understood my lady love.
You two think I dont understand...
and that you can
make a fool out of me.
Tangaballi is singing in Hindi?
Yes!
Balli Balli I am Tangaballi!
I know your plan...
now youre in trouble.
You will not sing to him anymore.
Now you will bid farewell
to this world, while doing disco!
Okay, that's enough!
Hey Tangu...
Hey Tangu...
Touch and show Anna,
I will cut you.
You do not know...
whom you are fighting with.
We are good for good peopleand
at the same time bad for...
bad people... understand.
We are in South, but we are
in the centerof people's hear-ts.
Whoever ridicules our honor and culture,
we teach them such a lesson that...
they wet their pants.
Rahul!
Meenamma, ready steady go!
Meena...
nobody can understand women.
At a time like this shes
worried about her things!
Really,
no one can understand women.
Come on.
Here you go, your ticket to Mumbai.
And you?
I am going to immerse
Grandpa's ashesin Rameshwaram.
You know Meenamma,
I just realized...
the best way to escape your
problems is to...is to face them.
No matter how wicked I
am,I am human after all, Meena.
You are right about all...
just one thing is wrong.
I will also come
with you to Rameshwaram.
What? Have you gone mad?
This is wrong.
- I'm doing the right thing.- Right, how?
Youve got the chance to
run awaywith such difficulty.
I could have run away when you were
drunkin the village, if I wanted.
I didnt run away
then.So how will l, now?
Its final Rahul,
I will also come with you.
Meenamma, try to understand...
I've taken a decision, let me complete
iton my own accord, please.
And you might be in danger there.
-What if Tangaballi reaches there?- Exactly.
I will save you from Tangaballi.
That's why I should come with you!
Okay?
