Hey Jabbar, stop staring down

Kuttiyappan, if l have a round in the

night, l'm like this in the morning.

Then you should have a round

in the morning as well.

You can't get rid of your

hangover wearing sunglasses.

For that, you should

have tender coconut.

Don't these people know that

arrack has been banned?

Then why are they

singing this nonsense?

lsn't this our national anthem?

Should l stand up?

There he is. Ask him to kickstart!

How long have l been

waiting for you!

Where were you?

Didn't we talk about getting

an elephant yesterday?

We have to go find one.

Come!

What about my scooter?

Drop me back before

Padmini returns.

You don't worry. We

Okay! She's gone!

Where are you off to?

Go that side!

Kuttiyappan, Bye!!

Tender coconut will be best for you!

-Alright!

Team DrC

Aren't you on lent?

- No, dear!

Today's Marilyn Monroe's

He'll either be at the toddy

shop or the party office!

Should l call him?

Do you want some coffee?

Or else..

Fresh toddy will be available now.

Should l get some?

Stop being so excited,

my dear Usha!

Let me have a good look at you!

She looks like this because

she's in a nighty!

lf she wears a saree,

she's super glamorous!

She'll wear a saree if we ask her to.

Would you like to see? - Yes!

Which saree? Kanchipuram

or Benaras?

Silk!

Yea right! Silk!!

Come here!

Hey,

l need a nice girl for

a couple of days.

There are a couple of girls

from the textile shop.

Let me ask them.

l'll drop them back safely!

- Okay!

Hey..

Didn't you say that you wanted

an elephant last night?

And now you're asking for young girls.

What for?

We need young girls to

welcome the elephant, right?

Got it?

- Okay then!

l'll ask him and let you know.

Bye!

There are a couple of them, Sir.

But they have to get

back home by evening.

How's that possible?

What do we do now?

ls it okay if l come?

My dear Usha, this 'programme'

needs young girls.

l know how your

'programme's are, Sir!

Long back, he had

taken me along with him.

l was just getting into

this field back then.

And you know what he did?

He made me apply oil

all over my body..

and played a song on

a tape recorder!

Which song?

'O' school of the spirit..'

And then, he asked

me to start dancing!

That too, without

any clothes on!

l don't even want to

rememberthat night!

Leave all that.

You give me a solution for this.

l heard that Dasa Pappi has

found some fresh ones.

Try asking him.

Dasa Pappi!

'The wild leaves

from the jungle,'

'were brought to the

towns by some..'

'And there began their

shenanigans...'

'Do see them..'

'Do hear them...'

Thirunakkara Appaa!

Kuttiyappan, are you

off to the temple?

Why? Can't l enter the temple?

But a non-Hindu?

What do you people

call your own father?

'Achan' (Father), right?

Us Christians call him 'Appan' (father)!

That's the connection between

us Christians and Hindu Gods!

'Ettumaanoor Appan',

'Thirunakkara Appan',

'Vaikkathappan',

'Ayyappan'!

This is how they're

called, right?

lnstead, you don't call them

Ettmaanoor Achan, Vaikkathu Achan,

and Thirunakkara Achan, right?

So can't we enter a temple?

- Of course!

What all should l teach you!

'The wild leaves

from the jungle,'

Chatterjee Mukherjee!!

Lal Salaam!

Oh Lord Allah!

How come you're here after long?

We've come here looking

for Dasa Pappi.

He was here a while back.

He'd be inside the temple for

the 'Deeparadhana' ritual now.

Who's this character?

This is Gopi Pillai Nair.

He's a big shot in

Nair Service Society!

Oh! Gentleman, is it?

No!

Yes!!

How come there's no rush today?

lt's the festival at

Ettumanoortemple, right?

Dasa Pappi!

My God! l was just

thinking of you!

Yea right! Am l Marilyn Monroe?

For you to keep thinking of!

l swear!

Leave all that!

You come here!

By the way, do you have any nice

young girls in your custody?

Don't be so loud!

How old?

Should be of voting age.

And should look like an

untied elephant caparison!

Are you in a hurry?

- Yes!

You have to give

me two days time.

That's quite a long time.

But it's okay.

There's a new one in town.

How is she?

- She must have 'voted' a couple of times.

'The promises l made,'

'l have to fulfill them'

'l have to fulfill them!'

My dear brother,

in the middle of this song, Lata

Mangeshkar makes a terrific entry!

'Even if the society stops you,'

'or the God himself,'

'you will have to come to me!'

'You will have to come to me!'

Pillai,

Come!

That man who's walking behind

him hasn't understood anything!

But still...

'You will have to come to me!!'

'You will have to come to me!!'

Team DrC

What are you doing

with it, Pillai?

lt's not starting!

l saw Kuttiyappan

going to your house!

But there's no one at home!

- Your daughter is there, right?

Move, son!!

Move, move!

Today l'll be George,

and you can be Koya.

Then who's Malar?

We'll find out when we reach there.

But l'm scared if my

dhoti will fall off.

What is it?

Look here!

Not over there.

Over here!

Saw that?

This Luttappi (comic character)

is so funny!

He's an awesome guy!

What's your actual name,

brother Kuttiyappan?

Prem Nazir.

Or you can even call

me Salkar Dulmaan!

Here! Saw him smiling?

He looks just like Pillai!

No way!

- Of course!

But he's not as awesome as

Dinkan! (Comic character/God)

Where were you all this while?

Do you know how long l've been waiting?

- l know.

That's why l came running here.

What happened to you?

Wear your dress properly!

Go get some hot water.

l don't need water!

- lt's for me!

l have water & soda in the jeep!

You come with me. We've

to go somewhere urgently!
