"Each of us became a brave tiger"

"We led a life without fear

We died when deceit took over"

"Inauspicious time buried our fraternity

into the bowels of the earth for eternity"

"An evil lot conspired to uproot

Kill our kith and kin to loot"

Kadamba, forgive me?

Though we harmed you...

...you still saved my life

But knowing what was happening

...I kept you in the dark

This forest is no longer your habitat

Ranger alone isn't responsible

Mahendran brothers

who own a cement factory

They came in only to

chase you away

And plunder this mountain and forest

There's a team

backing them up

Pretending to be volunteers

and helping you

Announcing the tiger sanctuary scheme

This is part of the big conspiracy

to drive you out of your habitat

From politicians to the officials

all of them are on their payroll

You can't defy them

To take possession over your land

they've destroyed your entire clan

No dear

It might be those rogues

Kadamba, good to

have you back in the fold

Brother, wasn't my husband with you?

Bro, what about my son?

What about my brother?

My son?

They have all been killed, sir

Oh! My God!!

Did we ever harm anyone?

In just one day that ranger

has made our lives topsy-turvy

They made us run

like thieves in our own forest

Not only the ranger

is behind all this

There's a big group

working behind this

We should not let

such heartless people live

We don't even know

their whereabouts

What can we do to them?

We don't need to go

in search of them

They will come looking for us

Are we playing puppet on

a string with poclains?

Business, mind you

We have invested in millions

Know how much we've spent

on ministers to lackeys like you?

Telling us casually

they have seized our lorry

Sir, what can they do

with the lorry?

This is a point in our favor

They can't even pledge it with pawn brokers

because we have the documents

Why are you getting tense

unnecessarily now?

If they take away the truck,

is everything over?

Will their strength be

100 on the whole?

What do those savages

know about us?

Go now

Solve the problem

This is normal in business

Be cool

Little one, for you to play

I found a tyre for you

Here, junior

Here, senior

This is for you,

my dear sweet potato

Paramu, look there

At least we manage

We are used to extreme weather

But our Pullakutti is used to

huddling inside his hut

Wonder how he is coping

Look here, whole village is

basking in the fire's heat

But only he will have

randy ideas in his head!

Aunt...!

"Psychic soothsayer handsome

You shake me like your drum"

"Despite all the people here

you kill me with your smile, dear"

"Mystic mind reader awesome

You shake me like your drum"

"Though crowded with so many people

you kill me with your smile beautiful"

"My dear princess clad in a saree

decked in 9 gems and jewelry"

"When you stand before me

my eyes erupt excitedly"

"Like sugarcane without nodes continuous

your words turned my mind nectarous"

"Even if offered a million for free

we will say 'no' to charity"

"Spacious apartments we don't need

Thatched huts will do for our creed"

"My kith and kin in the forest daily

will take care of me diligently"

"If outsiders trespass into our territory

our lives we will sacrifice if necessary"

"One day we will all R.I.P for eternity"

"What's wrong in leading

a life of dignity?"

"Without hiding any secret

we'll live, open like the forest"

"Even if we desire, without asking

we shouldn't amass anything"

"If we live honestly

we will be blessed vastly"

"No tree can grow

without any root we know"

"Unless we toil for our food

it will not stick to us for good"

"No worries as long as we are noble"

"Believe in yourself, no hassle"

"If we walk without going astray

we'll be A-1 example, worthy of display"

Kadamba

Our problems have been solved

Then why should we stay here?

Can't we go back

to our habitat?

It isn't over as yet

It begins only now

Looks like we have a point here

Sir, I don't think this tree

fell of its own accord

Looks like someone felled the tree

Let's leave, not safe

for us to be here

Sir, he doesn't realize my capabilities,

that's why he's scared!

Let me get hold of them

Watch how I skin them alive!

Skinning alive is a fact for sure

But who is the million $ question!

Sir, quick, let's go

Get in fast

Sir, please get in

It isn't safe to be standing there

(overlap of voices)

Please listen to us, sir

What are you doing?

Bloody fool, drive!

Sir...!

They are holding our Tarun as hostage, sir

I know

I thought they would

run away from the forest

But they are attacking

us from within

So they are waiting for us

This is a GPS watch

You go

Our men will follow you

After they kidnap you...

...there shouldn't be a trace

that a race like this existed!

Better leave this place forever

Otherwise...

...my brother won't spare

a single soul from your clan

Not only your brother

Even your grandfather, great grandfather

cannot lay a finger on us, I say

Hey, stop...stop

Zoom this frame

Zoom, some more

Entire force has gone in

We can find him very soon

Not can, have to

Yes, sir

Sir...?

- Hello...hello...?

- Hello

- Can you hear me?

- Yes, sir

Because of the rains

paths are blocked

So we are unable

to go inside

Goddess Palichi

Look how sharp her gaze is

It's a girl baby

Look how overjoyed she is

You got a baby sister, boys

Baby sister...love you

Our Goddess Palichi Amman

has taken this avatar, sir

Good times hereafter for sure

Sir...?

Which place is this?

This is-

This is reserve forest

Elephant hills

40 km away

Yes

Send only 10 of our men

...to that place

We sent 100 of our men

and we achieved nothing, sir

Obey implicitly

Finally your dream came true

You got a daughter

Thanks to him

our whole race has flourished!

Height of happiness!

Where is Kadamban?

He is standing guard

They know

your hideout

Leave this place right now

Quick!

Throw the bomb now

Sir, even our men are in there

The reason I asked you

to send 10 of our men...

...was to finish them altogether

As long as they are in there...

...1 man is equal

to a hundred

This is the only way to

close their chapter

Baby...!

Mother...!

Sir, I have searched everywhere

Our Tarun sir is missing

Take him

Mother!

It hurts

My newborn baby

Even now I can feel

her warmth in my hands

From this moment, our clan

won't lose a single life

Enough of this torture

We made all these mistakes

listening to you, enough!

- Mistake?

- Yes, big blunders!

Antagonizing them

was our biggest blunder

That's why he is driving us to death

So...? If we run from

one group beating us here...

...to another over there?

Do we keep fleeing all our lives?

We ruled this forest

If we need to regain control

we have to fight!

After losing so many of our dear ones,

you want us to lose more?

Let's go to the plains

and save what's left of us

What...go to the foothills?

If we go down now...
