including a photo of the great leader MGR.

Everything was lined up.

Everyone standing around it.

Chief. I gotta pee.

Can we take a break?

Finally after lot of spats and arguments

everyone got what they wanted.

The only thing that was left

was a big wooden trunk.

No one knew what was inside it.

Everyone got curious and wanted to open it.

So they first moved it.

As they moved it, behind the trunk was

this retard sitting quietly in a corner.

One of the elders asked those

sisters and brothers...

" Ok dears..."

" you all got what you want..."

" Who will take him with them?"

Who gets the responsibility to

take care of this retard?

No one opened their mouth.

The sisters were quiet.

A deep silence.

The thief looked around and said:

" Shall I take him with me? "

And so the thief took up the

responsibility of that retard.

Now do you know who

that thief was?

Ekambaram.

And that retard?

Myself.

Back then when that small thief

carried me on his arms...

one of my sister asked him...

" Hey you thief! What did

the retard whisper to you?"

Ekambaram replied:

" he asked me to save him

from all you thieves"

Well back then Ekambaram...

rescued me.

But today I am going to die.

Aren't you going to kill me?

You are going to finish me off.

Come on now. That was

totally uncalled for.

Sir...

But I don't have an option. Cost

of living has gone way to high.

Onions that sold for

15 bucks a kg...

is now 100 bucks.

I have two children

who are in school.

Tuition fee, school fee etc. etc.

It's tough to run a

family these days.

All my friends are now rich. In no

time they prospered in their life.

Everyone has settled

down and are well off.

Sir...

this is my only chance.

Do you want me to let it go?

My son works here in Chennai.

It's nearby.

Last time we saw,

we had a fight.

I would like to

just go meet him.

I am very sorry.

I won't tell him about

your plan to murder me.

Come on now. Don't say that.

Ekambaram is on his way.

We are running short on time here.

You are younger to me.

- Or else I would fall on your feet.

- Oh! Oh! No!

Please sir.

Stop making me feel small.

You want to meet your son.

Right?

Fine.

First, have some water.

Here.

Drink it.

Chief, hope you are doing fine.

How are you chief?

What is it chief?

You came down all of a sudden?

Please come in.

- Hello?

- Hello.

This is Kathir here.

Can I speak to my dad?

Hello?

- Who is it on the call?

- Your friend's son.

Looks like his dad is missing. He

wants us to help him find his dad.

Ask for it and you shall receive.

Knock and doors shall open

so keep looking for what you

want and you shall get it

so keep looking for it and the

lord will definitely grant it

Surprised to see me Sekar?

Come here.

Sit down.

Come on. Come on.

Come.

Come. Sit down.

I know you'll come down chief.

Is it?

Did you find him?

Did you look for him?

He came to Madras

with the stuff.

You claim that he

didn't come to you.

Where else would have he gone?

You tell me.

If he had sneaked away with

the stuff to sell it...

- then he might have gone to Sowcarpet.

- You. Go look in Sowcarpet.

Then?

If he is hiding somewhere

with the stuff...

then he might be

somewhere around Guindy.

Where else?

Come on chief. How would I know?

Oh yeah. Right. How

would you know?

How would he know?

2 bed rooms?

It's a rented house.

The rent is 6,000 bucks. You

might not feel comfortable here.

There is a nice hotel nearby. I'll

go check if rooms are available.

Sit down.

Sit down.

How can you make a

guest stay in a hotel?

Can't I stay here?

Oh come on.

Wife and kids are not in town.

There is no food here.

- I'll go buy food...

- We already had our food.

Bloody!

Didn't he call earlier

asking for his dad?

Look the bag is with him.

What's this?

His son has posted in Facebook.

It seems he got the bag.

He has requested the owner

to come collect it.

Didn't we hand the bag to his dad?

How did it end up with him?

Still don't get it? Your friend and

his son are playing Judas with us.

I warned you, not to

trust that oldie!

Now look! He has

royally screwed us.

If they are planning to cheat us

then why would he post the photo?

That boy...

must be here in an hour's

time, with the bag.

Hello.

Hello?

This is regarding

your Facebook post.

Where is that bag?

What color attire

were you wearing?

Grey shirt and...

black trouser.

Holy ash on the forehead...

- and a black spectacles.

- Sorry it's not your bag.

Wait!

That's not my attire.

The one your dad was wearing.

Listen, the stuff is

worth 50 million.

If I don't get that monkey

portrait bag in an hour's time...

then none in your

family will be alive.

Spoke to him. He'll be

here in an hour's time.

Let him come.

All the truth will be out

as soon as he reaches here.

Chief...

what is in that bag?

The dragon scroll

from Kung fu Panda.

Worth 50 million?

To Ambika hospital. Quick.

Boss, who'll get the

vehicle's number plate?

Tell me something. You stole

the stuff worth 50 million...

but then why post

about it in Facebook?

Funny guys. Ambika hospital.

I will take care.

Hey! Hey!

Stop!

- Sir, to the left.

- But I wanna go right.

Ambika hospital is on the left.

Then get down.

Not even a thanks for the lift?

Pathetic!

- You fool!

- Sorry sir.

Watch out!

Where is my dad?

Who are you?

Where did you find my dad's bag?

Who are you?

Where did you find my dad's bag?

Who are you? Why do you

keep asking me that?

From where did you get the bag?

Who is Sekar?

I said I don't know.

Stop repeating yourself.

- Answer me!

- I said I don't know.

- Leave me. Get lost!

- Look. Answer me.

I said, leave me! Let me go!

- Tell me!

- Stop hurting me!

- Answer me!

- Stop hurting me!

Speak!

Answer me! Where's my dad?

Where is he?

I'm here to pick you.

Worth 50 million.

No one has arrived

with the stuff.

Would you like to keep the

money safe with you or...

should I keep it inside and

hand it over in the morning?

Ekambaram is on his way here.

Chief...

I've packed the body. There

is no space for the head.

Do we have any bag?

Chief, let's frame

Sadhasivam too in to this!

Make sure he doesn't escape.

Here.

Go throw it somewhere

in the outskirts.

What are you wondering?

Here. Hold it.

For your daughter's wedding.

Here, 0.6 million.

Take that. We'll burn the

parts in that bag into ashes.

- Son's marriage?

- No. Daughter's marriage.

- Which area?

- Here nearby.

Where to?

I've a small work.

Here.

There is 30 million in it.

Count it.

Oh yeah. Sekar...

that you received the money.

Thanjavur idol...

it's pure and genuine.

Let him go.

- Throw your gun away.

- Let him go.

Put the gun away!

Can't you start talking

as soon as you came in?

Instead you sing and mock?

Showing off that you can sing?

My dear brothers, gentlemen...

and my dear ladies.

Greetings to all.
