It's a letter from that girl...

Things are falling

into place, enjoy

Speaking the love lingo

Communicating through eyes

Speaking the love lingo

Communicating through eyes

Coward! He's not attending the call

It's surely Ganesh! Sekar

would've picked up the call

Is this a telugu song?

For sure it's Sekar

Who sent you?

Tell me

I won't disclose

Look at this terrorist attitude

It's either Sekar or Ganesh...

...want to kill me

You eat only once, eat another idly

I don't have time to investigate

Have this Idly

Don't you see me talking

All you do is

feed me with the left overs

Just leave

I make fresh food everyday

and you complain

- Have you all eaten?

- We all had

Serve him some idly

He will eat

Please leave now

Why waste the food on a dead man?

Where were we?

So...someone wants me dead

And you won't disclose them

So...the only option is

to kill all my enemies

You'll realise only when you die

So you die

Just kill him...and get rid of the body

Sethu, I'll tell the truth

What's in it for me?

Just close his mouth...immediately

Push it inside

I am asking you since morning,

You didn't utter a word

Now you offer a pity clue and

You expect me to listen

And he needs some gift

You just die

I know how to find him

Just kill him...and give him

a horrifying death

I'll do it

What the hell is this shirt

look at the color

And you want to kill someone

For 2 years I've not done anything big

Trust me and give this to me! I'll do it

You have just joined

You'll have to mature to do it

First, change your shirt

You look like a comedian

Just because you waited

long, doesn't mean I've to

I'll do it please

Kasi bro, just leave him

I'll do it

Rasu bro, do tell him

to give me a chance

Leave him, Rasu bro

Early in the morning, in the middle of

the house, that too during breakfast

Does it look like

a child's play to you both?

Just clean this up

Are you happy now?

Clean that blood

Both of us didn't execute at the end

Police...Police is coming

Let's take it back inside!

Sub-Inspector is here

What do we do now?

- Sir, how about our case?

- I'll take care

- Get a chair for sir

- Poured something down?

Sethu, did you find the guy

who tried to kill you

That's not a plot to kill me

It's some other problem

I was incidentally there!

That's all

So you didn't catch him?

I told you

he didn't come to kill me

You're the Police

Find the killer

Coffee?

No thanks, got to leave

as I am in duty

Take this money

and help me double it

I plan to enroll my son in

an Engineering college next year

No one lends money nowadays

Bank lends it if you just sign documents

Try your best

One more information

20 days back we were asked to send your

file to the Commissioner's office

I am not sure

if it's an encounter plan

So, be careful

If it's an encounter,

someone will be spying you

I'll inform you if I get

any information from my officials

You be careful

I'll leave now

- Why did you drop the body, Idiot?

- Am I an idiot? You're the one...

Fighting over a dead body

in the middle of the house

What's the prayer for?

Prayers won't be effective if shared

But if it happens, we'll come here

again and light 2000 lamps

What?

We light 2000 lamps

Off late you are more

into romance I guess

Just now our plan is getting executed

I am slowly fetching details

about Sethu from her

Be careful

Don't play with her too much

Else, I'll have to find you

a business here for a living

I am just pretending

to be in love with her

Will tell her the truth,

once our work is done

What are you doing?

Am gonna go through Sethu's street

Just turn the bike

Don't invite problems

What's an issue to go through his streets?

He doesn't own the road

Dude, I could see a problem

Which house?

Not sure! I am not

familiar with this area

At sight we can definitely find it

That's the one

Red benz car is outside

Just take a picture as we pass by

Take my phone

Last week itself I've paid the bills

How could they say we haven't?

He looked at us...

Go fast

- Did you take the photograph?

- Stupid go

Tomorrow I'll look into this payment

It's a dead end

You didn't tell me

I told you I am not familiar

with these streets

For sure, we are dead today

Just be cool

We'll casually return! I'll take care

Don't worry

I'll call you back

- Hey, what's up?

- Who are you both?

- My name is Karthik

- Why are you roaming here?

- We came to visit our friend

- Which house?

- Ramakrishnan

- Chandrabose

- Ramakrishna Chandrabose

- Tell the address clearly

- Near the temple

- Near tea shop

You have a bangle shop, right?

Don't roam around here

Get lost

- What's the problem?

- Kids...lost their ways

I had an issue

with them at the bar

I was embarrassed

at my house cause of them

Are they spying on us?

Doesn't seem like that

They were scared

One of the guys

owns a bangle shop

Even the inspector warned us

We can't trust anyone

Let's keep an eye on them

I'll take care

It's a small task anyways

Watch them closely

If you suspect anything,

inform us! We'll close it

Okay, bro

Oorni, why did you switch on the TV?

Your parents have gone to Mumbai

Your wife has gone for her pregnancy

So, you and sir have a party everyday

He has come all the way to catch porn

movies in the day and drink all night?

I am a Visual Communication student

I've come to take photos of Madurai

Oh photos!

Can we see those photos?

We are just going to start it today

So, shall we start then?

Everything is over, I am going

to die without seeing my kid

They will watch us now and

kill us in the evening

I warned you a million times

My family will miss me

Did you shoot my picture?

What's your plot?

Take the film reel out

You had a photogenic posture, that's why

Don't be sarcastic

Take the film reel out

I swear you were looking good

I am going to break your camera

Take the reel out first

No film reel!

It's digital

Just look at the pictures once

How can you show immediatel?

Don't you have to process the reel?

Don't try to fool me

No processing is required!

Look!

If you've told me,

I would have posed with the glasses

Can we take one more photo?

Brilliant pictures

I've never seen me nicer

You have a gangster like personality

That's exactly what we do all this work

I need a rapid growth in life

I can't wait for years

I've a 4 year old daughter

I want to earn well...

Keep the family happy

Then settle down with a small business

Good drinks...and enjoy

my life to the fullest

So, how did Sethu

become such a big shot?

Do you know any

history behind this?

About Sethu brother...

What do you want to know about Sethu?

Ask me, I'll tell you everything

Yes

"When the beauty of

the land falls in love"

"The rage of bull is instigated"

"And when the seasonal flowers blossom"

"The legendary bull fights begin"

"The lone lady is enthralled"

"And caught up in the web of love..."

- Is that Sethu?

- Yes

I took a big risk
