"And enjoy the earth,
through the golden rays of the sun"
"And in case we lose our taste,
we shall catch fishes in the skies"
"When hunger strikes during nights,
we shall dine on them"
"Sometimes the skies,
and sometimes the earth..."
"we will look for shelter"
"We shall rise and fight
for a place in Mars"
"Wasn't that the moon that whistled?"
"You are young and raring to go"
"isn't that right, Macarena?"
"For those eyes, you have
the girls at your feet"
"Don't you steal our hearts away"
"Girls are flowers
meant to be enjoyed"
"Don't you deny us this desire"
Daddy...
Who's that?
- Friend.
It's my Dad.
Daddy, she asks how are you?
Say I'm fine
What's wrong, Dad? You've gone pale.
- No.
You are. Else, you would've been
excited seeing me speak in English.
For that matter, I've fooled you many
times in English to get my work done.
What is it? What's your worry?
- Whom do I worry for but you?
For me? Why? You've reared me with
great care, got me educated.
So what's worrying you?
- That's what is worrying me.
What?
- That I got you highly educated.
Highly educated? I've just done
my Baccalaureate in Science.
I have to still get more education.
- What? More education?
Yes.
- Shut up! You won't find...
too many educated boys in our caste.
Finding a boy for you is tough.
And if you learn more, where
am I going to find a man for you?
A man for me...? Why?
- To play with.
No marrying now.
Daddy, I want to do my Masters.
I've filled up my applications
for you to sign.
Sign it, Daddy.
I'll thrash you! Only four boys
are Baccalaureates in our village.
Out of them 2 are from other castes.
And one is going abroad.
And the last one is Selvapandi's son.
I begged of Selvapandi...
They are coming to see you tomorrow.
- To see me? You didn't even ask!
Why should I ask?
- I won't buy that! I want to study.
Silence
Hear me out. Six years we prayed
for you to be born.
You are my only daughter. Can I stay
in peace if I get you married off...
in some faraway place?
- Who said I'm going faraway?
It's foreseen, you're going for
higher studies. Which is why...
I've asked them to come and see you.
- Stop them! I'm studying. Sign it.
Acting stubborn!
Don't you understand what I say?
You tore my application form?!
He's coming to see me tomorrow, no?
Believe me, I'm going
to stone him out! Just watch!
Why are you pacing up and down?
Come and sleep inside.
Go on, I'm not feeling sleepy.
- It's two...
Didn't I tell you
to go and sleep?
Let us all close our eyes
and pray to God.
Lord, my daughter should agree
to get married.
Let us all make peace
with each other.
Amen.
- Amen.
Amen.
- Amen.
Amen.
Daddy, ask the boy to come home
tomorrow. I agree to get married.
Amen.
Amen.
God, don't send my son away!
Mother, don't you pray for me.
- Why are you getting at her?
Dad, she always asks opposite
of what I ask for. Poor God!
How can He answer both the prayers?
God is good. He will answer mine.
Tell me, what have
the two of you prayed for?
I prayed to go to Canada.
Mother prayed not to.
It's a golden opportunity. It's not
easy to get admission in that college.
Move.
I've already applied for the passport
and visa. Any problem, Daddy?
The very thought of my son going
to study abroad makes me proud.
Makes me glad too. But you'll be gone
for 5 years. No, I can't stand it.
In no time 5 years will be gone.
You know something, Mother.
I was supposed to have been born
in the States. But by mistake...
I was born in India. But Thank God,
I'm happy to be born...
in a family which
can afford the expense.
Look, she's crying away.
Mother, if I can do without you
for five years, can't you?
Mother's sentiment.
- Bloody sentiment!
My daughter Jennifer. Lovingly,
I call her Selvi.
You can address her by the name
you like. It's your wish.
Do you approve of the boy?
I'm happy, you agreed to get married.
But I'll look for someone else if you
disapprove. Say, you like him?
"He's coming to see me tomorrow, no?
I'm going to stone him out! Watch!"
So you approve, hey!
Jennifer, granddaughter
of Rajendra Thevar...
daughter of Samanasu Pandian,
is engaged to wed David...
my son and grandson of Selvarair.
Passport and visa done!
I'm flying to Canada next week.
God! Look what has happened!
What's the noise upstairs?
- No idea.
Look, what he has done!
What happened?
- What's wrong, Mother?
The letter.
"Dear Jennifer, please forgive me.
I'm in love with someone else.
She even contemplated suicide. I
write this before the day of wedding.
I apologise. I ditched you to save
a life. I believe, you'll understand.
Move. What's that?
Siva, be careful with the passport,
visa and tickets.
Look, she's always crying.
Look at Dad. He wished me luck,
and is happy to send me off.
And you're forever crying.
At least, take me to the airport.
- Poor thing! Take her along.
Mother... to the airport?
No chance. She'll weep there too.
Before I fly, I want to see
some good things, not a sad face.
Take care, son.
Take a nice look at the tensed,
bespectacled chap in the crowd.
Not connected to the story, but
he's the one who provides a twist.
Remember this bottle of blood?
It's the blood
that Jennifer donated.
Sew.!
Stop moping. I'll find you another
match. You're marrying next week.
Stop it, Daddy!
- Why?
Stop taking hasty decisions. Think.
One man writes a letter and vanishes.
And you want me
to marry the next man?
I wanted to study,
not this hassle!
You're right. You could've continued
your studies, but I ruined it.
Can I continue...?
Let me take my Masters, Daddy.
How? I tore up the application,
didn't I?
That was Annamalai University. I also
applied to Madras Christian College.
I've been called for an interview.
If it's okay with you, I'll take it.
In Madras? But I didn't endorse
that application?
Endorsement, big deal.
Don't I know how to
scroll your signature? I signed.
Forgery!
The wedding didn't take place.
I hope it didn't hurt you?
Not at all. Didn't I tell you, I'd
stone him till he runs away.
But he ran away on his own.
Why get mad at her?
She's crying because you are hurt.
That explains. She wept while I was
on my way and I had an accident.
I'm lucky not to reach the airport.
It might've lead to a plane crash.
Somehow send me to Canada, Dad. I'll
take treatment after I attend class.
What an idea!
- No!
Doctor says your leg needs plates.
You need 2 months complete bed rest.
What happens to my studies?
- In the foreign frenzy...
you overlooked the colleges here.
Yes, the principal of the
Madras Christian College is a friend.
Shall I ask him to hold up a slot?
- Do as you please.
Madras Christian College
Your names later. Are you new here?
- Yes. And you...?
I've been at it for 5 years. But if
you have doubts regarding studies...
don't ask me, ask him. You can
