Gandhinagar 2nd Street Page #8

- Good choice.

Tommy is a Christian and I'm a Hindu.

Don't ask for trouble.

Is writer K.J. Kuttycheria's daughter

talking? I can't believe it.

I've read hundreds of his novels.

In most of them, though the lovers

belong to different faith.

They overcome problems and unite.

I've been thrilled.

It's so sad that I've to

tell you all this.

Ram Singh, wait you're a true villain.

- Why did you call me?

You're flirting with the

Kinder Garden teacher.

Why did you call me? I'm busy.

How's the inspector's girl?

- I don't understand.

I've seen you talking with her.

Is she worth trying? Do me a favour...

Next time you tell her high about me.

I'll treat you for tea.

- Don't ask for trouble.

Ram Singh, wait...

Hey, we're paying your salary.

Don't forget it.

I'll go...

If anyone calls, tell them I'll be at

the station afternoon. - Okay...

My mom is restless. She told me that

your name is Maya.

She is upset that I've not

met you for so long.

Being a guest, won't you ask me to sit?

Anyway no formalities.

I'm having more freedom.

I think, I've to be the host

as well, please sit.

I saw your dad leaving in

the morning. Where's your mom?

They've gone for a marriage.

Good, so the Government vehicle is

being used for private purposes.

You seem to be serious. I cracked

a joke, but you didn't smile.

Oh, I didn't know that it

was a joke.

This is a comedy. No girls in this

colony have this smartness.

Let us be friends.

Hereafter, I'll not joke. You crack

jokes & I'll laugh.

I'm not sure, if you can...

What's your name? - Tommy...

I don't know if Tommy can

understand my wit.

I'll surely understand anybody's...

I was reading a book... - That means

I disturbed you.

Normally, I never introduce myself.

But after seeing you, I felt that

we're closely related.

This Bindi really suits you.

Is it a stick on or dye?

What do you want?

Mom is not at home? - No...

Oh, you've sneaked in when

no one is at home.

Get out? Did we invite you?

He eats our left overs and

yet tries to boss over us.

Come out, I'll pay you for this.

Are you going to swallow me? - Come out.

Look, our son was beaten up

by that Nepali guy.

Beaten up? Who? Our Tommy?

Do you have any other son

other than Tommy?

I'm the secretary of this colony.

My son has been beaten up by the

watchman who was appointed by me.

Why did he beat him?

What ever the reason may be. Was he beaten up?

I'm asking how he dared to beat

colony secretary's son?

Forget the secretary post.

What happened?

Am I not your son? Did I get

beatings from you till now?

He has beaten me to

the ground.

Without any reason.

No, ruining his father's property...

As we're neighbours. I was talking to

the inspector's daughter friendly.

He didn't like it.

He just walked in and

bashed me up.

I see, where is he now?

In that tent... - Wait,

where are you going?

Move...

Are you going to fight?

If he is a Gurkha, I'll show him I'm

a true Christian.

No need to prove

anything now.

He carries a long knife, if you go

directly & get hurt, it's a shame.

Call Aantappan secretly & ask

him to bash him up.

Let us not be involved, isn't it?

My poor boy, don't worry...

Is it Aantappan? You be there, I'll come right

away.

There's a matter to

be discussed.

Sethu, what's the matter?

Who were those people?

Leave it, I need some water.

Okay, come inside - No, just

bring the water here.

You needn't go out tonight

what if they come back?

It's all right, teacher.

- Listen to me, come on.

I want to see your son

- For what?

I had given him a dose of medicine.

I think he needs more.

Get out... - There's no need for me to

get him beaten by henchmen.

That's why I came alone.

Leave him alone... - Move.

Oh God! My son is being beaten up.

Oh God!

Leave him... - I said, move...

run away.

Some one, please come.

He's killing... catch the Gurkha...

He's killing my son, someone

please come.

What's this? Oh! Gurkha.

First you run away from here.

What happened to Gurkha?

Has he gone mad?

Hey, what's this?

Please move away.

I asked you to leave him.

Don't touch him... enough...

Are you on duty?

To hit a scoundrel, I needn't

be on duty.

Do you know the real culprits?

Last night, when this poor man was

beaten up, where were you all?

Anyway, you wear your uniform.

Let your punishment be official.

Don't touch...

Teacher he tried to kill me

& my son.

Probably you both deserve it.

Enough... Make a call to the station

& ask for the jeep, don't let him go.

You'll see the rest in the station.

Go & make a call.

Are you taking him to the station?

- Yes.

We don't know what really happened.

Why should you invite his curse

by filing a case against him?

Curse?

In that case a police officer

can never do his duty.

He misbehaved, that too infront of me.

He took the law in his hands.

Didn't you listen to the teacher?

I am ready to listen to him.

Nothing serious has happened here. Why

don't you go for a compromise?

What happened?

If you arrest him infront of so many

people, he'll feel bad.

Let him feel bad.

You don't do like that.

Here's the tea.

Everybody disperse.

Except you two...

Are you not arresting him?

Let this not be repeated,

I'll deploy two police men.

That'll not do, you saw him

beatening my son.

No body will beat for

no reason.

I'll investigate.

I didn't understand one thing...

When he was being beaten up, why

was the teacher so concerned?

So you don't know about it? - What?

He is in the nursery

for 24 hours.

Along with that Nirmala? - Yes.

And do you call yourself

a secretary?

For the last 2 yrs, her

husband is in Dubai?

Should we all fool in and appoint

a Gurkha for that?

We're not retaining him any more

- No need.

What did you say?

The teacher & that Gurkha are

involved in an illicit affair?

What? Are you going to write a story?

- Yes, a story.

Why are you standing here?

Go inside.

A dubious Gurkha from the

snow capped mountains.

Keep quiet, give me some peace.

You & your novels...

Gurkha is meant to guard

the colony.

But now, he has turned against us.

We don't need such Gurkha.

Everybody go inside.

We're standing infront of

our own houses.

I'm the secretary of this colony.

You go if you want...

Give us some respect

Who can talk with these people?

Sethu, have dinner.

Teacher, I am leaving this place

- where?

I'll go some where... I've become a

burden for everyone.

I don't even want to live.

Then why did you ask me to remind

Bala for the Dubai job?

Teacher, that was just my wish.

If I stay here any more, someday you

might ask me to leave.

Sethu, my own siblings deserved me.

That gap was filled

by your presence.

Come and have dinner.

Teacher enough, enough.

If you've to fight again? You've to

take care of your health.

Teacher, did you think that

I'm a fighter cock?

No, you're hiding some secrets

from me...

There'll be some reason, isn't it?

I don't want to hide

secrets from you.
