"Kabali the visionary!"

"King of our time

In the concrete jungle"

"Watching over my pride"

"How does it matter to you

which place I belong to?"

"He lent a hand as a Tamilian

to his clan in this land"

"I am stalking my prey

Won't let them get away"

"Vtflth the things that they do

Bad moves that they make"

"We let others live

We gladly gave in"

"Now I'll live life to the fullest

Zip your lips and focus"

"Dressed to kill"

"Call it Kabali swag

Come and get some"

"Like the K-town clan"

"It ain't about the size

of the dog in the fight"

"But the spirit of the fight

in the dog that's right"

"Root and flower

Don't differ"

"Though grey of the clouds somber

pure drops of rain shower"

"Will waves be kept at bay

by a repressive force anyway?"

"Water current forever powerful"

"To swim past you is impossible"

"Can a snowflake small

snuff a volcano tall?"

"The elite order's furor

won't be heard here anymore"

"Tamil race and its identity

will now become reality"

"Rich men's cry of power

won't be heard in future"

"Tamil clan's address

will now spell success"

"Within a seed's womb

like a flower we bloom"

"History from the tomb"

"Tomorrow's dawn is ours to revel

Surge, break rules to rebel"

"The sky is your ground to play"

"A bird won't forget to fly half way"

Dance with me

How dare you!

Don't!

Move out of the way

It was most unexpected

He had the gall to

attack our Cheeni bro!

We must show him our power

I caught an Eel

Trying your tricks with me?

It isn't easy, you know

Only if the bait fish

is alive it is do-able

It will be very protective

towards its many young ones

VWII try to survive

till the very last second

Deli-cious!

To feast on such a tasty fish

we should know its innate nature

Only then it can be caught

And its flavor appreciated

Kabali is just like this fish

He is ready to be caught

But not right now

Tony Lee is out of the country

Just 1 sure shot

It should be a point

of no return for him

Not miss the bull's eye

Let us wait

Enjoy the fish gravy

- What is this?

- Mutton

- Enjoy

- Serve some more

Wow!

Fathima

Sooooper!

Finger-licking good!

Just like my wife's cooking

'Thanks a lot, anna'

Really?

You think it's so-

Tell me the truth, anna

I won't get angry

My wife's culinary skill

is truly awesome, right?

Listen, my dear

If I praise your cooking

your husband doesn't believe me

Look into it

How will taste buds talk

when he has no tongue!

I don't have atongue?!

Isn't this proof enough?

(dismissive laughter)

I'm enjoying ayummy dinner

after many years, let me eat in peace

Just kidding, anna

- Eat

- Don't want, ma

'Enjoy yourself, anna'

What do you want?

Don't cry

'Will you ignore

your poor pregnant wife?'

'- What do you want?

- I want to hug you tight and sleep'

'Come, why are you so late?'

'Everybody is waiting for you'

'Come inside.

'Good morning, sir'

'Come'

'I have discussed everything

No problem at all'

'You can go in'.

'My legs are all swollen'

'I can't even walk'

'Go...get me some water'

'Enough...enough'

'Let us eat'

'Everybody is waiting, right?'

'What are you doing?'

'Come soon'

'Where did you disappear?

We were starving'

'Come and eat with us'

'Come and eat, anna'

(nostalgic sigh)

Anna...?

Don't get stuck in the past now

We are all here for you

You can go now, Amir

Please go home, I want

to be alone for a while

Okay

'Your wife has also been

laid to rest here'

There were no family members

So the policemen went ahead with-

Hey Banu!

Good to see you

What brings you here?

Thought of me suddenly?

Think you're in your 20s?

I came to see uncle

Uncle, how are you?

You forgot me?

I'm Banu, uncle

You educated me in Klang

I stood first in the state

Oh! Is that you, Banu dear?

Are you married?

Where does your husband work?

All done and dusted!

What to do?

Don't yell at me

I was dealing in drugs

I was good at academics

I dreamt a lot

Didn't know whom to trust

He said he loved me

He said caste was no barrier

He quoted Mani Ratnam's films

And finally gave me a baby!

During land redistribution, he said

he was leaving for Tamil Nadu

I told him not to

That was the last I saw of him

I haven't set eyes on him again

What to do?

I have only 1 son

Jeeva, come here

I've wasted my life

He is refusing to study

If I get him a job

he beats up everyone

He saw you somewhere

He is so adamant

he wants to work for you

I know you will make

a man out of him

Take him, uncle

Why are you crying?

He is in safe hands

Go home, I'll keep you posted

Anna, you had sent for him

Banu's son Jeeva is here

Anna

Stop the car

Jaya, call that boy

Bro, come here

Get into the car

Hold...hold

Wait

Move

Hahn...Fathima!

Fathima handles everything here

- Welcome, anna

- Good...good...good

Move...move

70 Tamil students graduate

from our school every year

They are 16 to 20 years old

All are school dropouts

These kids were all in the gang

Please come

Come this way, anna

When our students were with

the gang, they used all this

So we have confiscated their stuff

Please come this way

We seized these accessories...

...reflecting the symbols

and colors of their gangs

We should be disciplined, right?

I appreciate it

Let's go

This way

All of you, relax

Please come

Get that chair

Please sit

Tiger

Do you know who this is?

- We do

- Mr Kabali

He donated this building for our school

He helps us to run it too

How about a special

'Free Life' salute for him?

Free Life salute

- What's up?

- Hey, wait

Why did VOL! get up?

Won't you sit in one place?

I am sitting quiet, right?

He's like that

Quite restless

He is hyperactive normally

- Ask him his name

- Why?

Just ask him

What is your name?

Hey! Get up

Tell him your name

Otherwise you know

the punishment?

Run around our ground

a whole day through

- Tiger...!

- Tiger...?

(indulgent chuckle)

Which gang are you from?

43."!

Do you know our anna?

- Heard he heads the 00 gang

- Shut up!

What will you do

after graduating?

Join the gang!

Would you like

to join anna's gang?

My team is the best

Smart Alec he is!

Idiot! Sit down

Meena, why did you smile at him?

I didn't smile at all

I was only watching Tiger

Didn't she flash her teeth?

Of course she did

She's lying now

No chance

I swearl didn't smile, akka

- Please believe me

- Hey! Meena

They lie to get me into trouble

Sir, you resemble my dad so much

'Dad, you be fair

Did I laugh?'

'I was just looking at Tiger-'

She must have had a puff or two

'Pa, tell them I didn't'

Tick them off

before you walk away

'That girl's name is Meena'

'She lives in my place

Sunway flats'

'In high school, she fell in love

with a pusher next door'

'He was older than her'

'Cheated this young girl

and made her pregnant'

'He ditched this girl

half way through'

'She became a mother

at a very young age'

'Claiming she wasn't fit to be a mother,

'Child care' authorities took her baby'
