What can I set on fire?

I can set fire only to myself

I'll set myself on

fire...

It's enough...Enough of

setting fire!!

Hereafter,Nobody should set fire to

themselves in front of me

I'm a thief...l didn't steal

to live like a rich man

No one should experience the tragedy

that I have...

That's why,I stole...

And still,I'm stealing...

to the 1st wife?

I can't satisfy you at all

What?

Who asked you to allow

them inside?

Madam,from morning,they were

standing outside

Go...

Tell me...

You know that both stood

first in the district

But...In the medical college

selection list

Their names were not

included

What should I do for

that?

"It's my responsibility to make them

both doctors"

Sir,that day you had said

on the stage

He'll say thousands of things

on the stage

Are you animals to believe all

those things

Madam,please,Don't talk

like this

Students who got less marks than them

got seats

They said you are capable of

doing it

You've to spend more to

study medicine

It's very difficult for a poor person

like you...

You don't have even

proper clothes

And you're aspiring for

silk clothes?

Sir,what are you talking?

We've fees amount of

Rs 1000

One man is ready to

help us for books

Sir,how much to spend

beyond this?

That Rs 10,000 is for

college fees...

Who'll give us money?

We need marks to get a seat

in the medical college

We've secured them

Why should we give money

to you?

We've given,isn't it?

Rs 5 lakhs for

election ticket...

Rs 10 lakhs for

C.M as a gift

Rs 10 lakhs for

posters...

Apart from this

we've spend Rs 25 lakhs...

How will we get back

all this money?

Poor man! After so much of labor also

It has got only educational portfolio

Is it a public works department

To get back out money

in a moment

Or is it an excise department

To get back money like

the flow of liquor

We too are poor people

Yearly once we'll see Deepavali

like this for the college seat

Sir,Don't give excuses &

avoid us...

From their childhood,both of them were

eager to become Doctor's

They've studied without food &

passed in the examination

Sir,please,show some mercy...

Look,if you cry like this

you won't get a seat..

You'll get seat only if

you've money!

Can't you understand?

I tried in so many places

I didn't get money even

on loan...

It's very difficult for people

like us to get a medical seat...

Console yourself...

What my child...Haven't you come out

of the predicament yet?

Father,college has opened...

they've started the classes...

Let it be...

This evening there's a film show

in the college

They're showing the picture of

how heart functions for 1.5 hrs

Okay

We know that we've been

denied it

Father,still there's hope...

I've a heart...

Father,inside it,my wishes are

struggling to become a doctor

You shouldn't cry...

You shouldn't...

Who are you?...

After all you're the son of a

poor pappad seller

First,you keep that

in mind...

No,father...

I'm Doctor Ramesh

Stop it...Have you gone

mad?

You're not a Doctor..

face the reality...

This pappad is real...

you'll feel hungry...

you'll starve...

Go & sell pappad...

Where are you going?

To the Medical college

- I'll beat you...

if you go to the medical college

I'll break your head...

Go to Temple,beach...

Go to the market

But if you go to some other place...

I'll kill you...

Okay,Father...

things & get money

Then...Take it...
