My dear son, show me

some affection.

Only if you like me, I'll be

benefited in many ways, son.

Your tea.

Your son is very nice.

I saw my younger brother last,

at this age only.

Fifteen years ago.

Where is he now?

In Nepal.

I just adore little children.

You must allow me to carry your

son atleast once a day.

Do you like children so much?

- Yes.

Then, whenever you have time, you can

come to the nursery.

Okay.

Madam, your husband is in Dubai?

- Yes.

He must be in a good

job there?

Not bad, he's been there

for the last 2 years.

Is it so? Whenever you write to him,

convey my regards.

Sure.

Coming.

Come, Come, come my friend

you're my friend.

You're my...

I'm coming...

Hold this... draw.

Yesterday, I spoke to the collector,

only then I understood,

Abroad also there are

nurseries like this.

Tell me, What help do you

need from me?

Let this continue

like this.

Nothing doing. As the colony secretary

I've some duties to do.

You're here. It's not possible.

Ram singh is very fond of kids

- Yes.

Please clean the roads.

You are not being paid

to play with the kids.

Where is your uniform?

Madam, needn't wear the uniform

at day time, isn't it?

Uniform is a must.

I had already told

you one thing.

If you don't catch the thief within

one week, you'll be thrown out.

Madam, but... where is the thief?

I don't want to hear

anything.

My decision will not waver.

You must catch the thief.

This is a simple problem.

Can't we set up a thief?

But where will you find

a thief?

Open your eyes and

look straight.

Look straight.

Can you see the thief?

- No.

It is me - What?

You are catching the thief,

beating him and chasing him.

Will this not be enough to impress the

colony people? - Yes.

Then, I am the thief.

Catch me, beat me up and

chase me.

But, won't you be identified?

If I am all smeared in charcoal and

wearing a mask, who can identify me?

When I am surrounded, you let

go of me and I will run.

Is not the matter solved?

No problem but - what but, it's

all a thrill for me.

There should be some

thrill in life.

Arrange for some oil and

charcoal in the tent.

Nobody's here.

Shout loudly. - Let me see.

Will any problem be created?

- Be brave and follow me.

Will any problem be created?

You be brave, come

on start.

But... - Catch me.

Thief... Thief - Oh God...

Thief is caught.

Oh God... oh God.

Thief... thief... come on

catch him.

Catch him.

Don't catch him, that's

my duty.

No... no... that's my...

Leave him. - That's impossible.

Remove his face mask, we

should know who he is?

Leave him, leave him.

All the thief in the

world have one face.

And that is of terror.

Nothing doing... oh...

Oh you big thief.

So, it was you who tried

to attack my daughter?

You thief... travel agency.

I had a doubt earlier.

Only a person who is familiar with

our colony can be the thief.

You acted like a decent man and

was cheating us.

...No, no, no.

Leave him... No... no... no.

Phone up to Eliza

- No - Why?

I am Ram singh, son of Bhim singh

saying... No... no... no.

I am a Hindustani Gurkha.

I'm a Gurkha, better

than police.

I'll not leave him alone,

dog, bastard.

I am going to draw my knife

- Oh God.

I'm going to kill him.

No... No...

Run away.

Gurkha don't take out

your knife.

We can't see blood.

Don't take out your knife.

Give us peace of mind...

oh God... Go...

We have understood

the value of a Gurkha.

There was a wolf in sheep's garb

in our colony

And our Gurkha caught him.

Under the board of

a travel agency,

That thief, Madhavan was terrorising

this colony, being familiar with it.

As the secretary of this colony,

I honour Ramsingh with the love &

gratitude of the people of this colony.

I invite Ramsingh to say a few words

- No, no, no.

Only two words, please.

Brothers and sisters.

"THIEVES WILL RAISE ALARM"

Catching thieves is my job.

Chor (Food)?

No... forgive me, not the food we eat

...but thieves.

Earlier, I had caught 10 thieves

- 10 thieves?

In Hindustan, there are not

many Gurkhas left.

Today some people came from

a colony in Kottayam.

They offered me Rs.100 more.

We'll give you Rs.150 more

right now.

I will consider this offer.

Brothers and sisters.

I'm grateful for your love & affection

shown to this poor Gurkha.

Let this love encourage me to catch

more and more thieves.

Hail India.

Teacher, what are you doing here?

- I came to see you.

What is all this?

These are some medicines

for body pain.

Didn't you know, I got

beaten up by all.

Yes, I know - Really?

I couldn't believe it. I didn't

expect this from you.

Are you mad?

- Yes.

What? - Trusting a thief is

a form of madness.

Teacher, I am losing my control.

I heard that you were showing lot of

control even when you were beaten up.

I came to know that except shouting

you didn't do anything else.

Since it is you, I'll tell you the

truth. I am not bothered about others.

Last night, I was only acting as

a thief - That's a lie.

What? If you doubt,

ask Sethu.

Yes, our Nepali Gurkha, Bhim singh's

son Ram singh.

You don't sack him, I've got

enough of my share anyway.

He is not a Gurkha but Kottakkal

Amshadhikari Govindankutty's son Sethu.

That mad secretary threatened to sack

him, if he doesn't find the thief.

Are we carrying the thief in our

pockets to catch him so easily?

You trust me only if

you want.

By the way, why did you

want to see me?

I need my passport.

They say, they will not let

you enter the colony.

Tell them, if they play with me

I'll burn their colony.

I'm a bad fellow.

You'll get your passport

after renewal on Monday.

I'll send it - Don't forget to give

it on Monday.

The butterfly who frequent

flowers,

The butterfly who drinks honey

from flowers.

The butterfly who sleeps

in flowers.

Come, come, come, come,

come my friend.

Ramsingh, sing that butterfly song

again - What?

Sing that butterfly

song again.

Teacher, actually we came to Kerala

15 years back, that's why.

I see, what is your

father's name?

Do you have a brother called

Sethu Singh? - What?

No.

Then, what is the relationship between

you and Kottakkal Amshadhikari?

You met Madhavan, right?

- Yes.

Can't blame him. If they're beaten

up so much, anyone would confess.

Shall I leave now?

- Where?

Because, I'll not be allowed to

stay here anymore.

I'll not ruin your career.

Madhavan told me everything.

You left your house to

go to Dubai.

And ultimately, you reached

here, isn't it?

Yes, since I didn't have a

place to go back,

I had to don this

clown's garb.

If your husband helps me, will I

get a job in Gulf?

He has not yet settled down there.

Anyway I'll write to him.

Since you are already into this comic

role, might as well continue.

Come... Come.

The butterfly who frequent flowers.

Hey, thief - mother, thief

- get lost.

You thief!

He's still in the colony?

Catch him - Don't leave him.

Didn't you quit this

colony yet?
