Bad behaviour,

l must accuse your mother.

Look at her!

How she's staring at me!

Didn't even say sorry to me.

Chinni, say sorry to aunty.

Sorry aunty.

- Will you run away in anger?

What would l tell your mother?

She said you're here to study,

ifyou act like this l can't take it.

Call your mother, Seenu.

l'll talk to her.

Sister, please don't cry.

So many people are sad because of her

and yet not a tear in her eyes.

l feel like crying but

mother said not to cry, aunt.

A boy took my pencil box

and ran away.

lt has mother's photo,

that's why l beat him.

Did you hear that?

- Enough dear.

Little girl, she did it unwittingly.

You please go now.

Come.

- Come. Padhu, come home.

What have l done to you?

Am l not caring you like my own?

You keep quiet, she's just

a little girl.- No...

She's a little girl, Sathya too...

Just now got a call from her college.

lf she doesn't improve in the next test,

she'll be out of star batch.

l didn't want to tell this

before everyone.

Keep on crying.

- Let's go.

You're the eldest,

you must take care ofthem.

Don't tell anything to mother.

l'll improve in next test.

Aunt scolded me unnecessarily.

l thought she's good aunt

but she scolded me.

No dear, aunt is very good lady.

She said in anger.

She was afraid of missing you.

That's all.

l don't want to stay here.

Let's go back to mother.

lt's very difficult here.

Shall we go back to mother?

- Okay, let's go.

Let's go.

- No.

Stop!

Everyone must say

Chinni is very good girl.

You mustn't cry for a year. Okay?

Okay?

Chinni will never cry!

Chocolate for you!

Take chocolate.

You like it, right?

What's happening?

Gold phase people are

occupying our lake.

Let's go.

- We must stop them.

Time passed away quickly.

B-phase which could never

come together on anything,

but it stood as one against

the occupation ofthe lake.

My lawyer uncle got a stay order

immediately from the court.

l've talked fewer times with mother

getting involved in colony matters.

Actually, we're unable

to get mother on phone.

Padhu lost her freedom totally.

Aunt has become a detective.

Abhi was on top in the

company of Paru.

Lakshmi too got adjusted well

to the life in Gold phase.

We couldn't adjust about that.

Nagaraj was too much!

Then came Vinayaka Jayanthi!

Seenu, come here.

- What?

Gold phase people have

installed a 10 feet Ganesh!

ls it?

- We must install 12 feet one!- Okay.

Uncle, donation for Ganesh festival!

Donation madam.

Just a paltry Rs.10 only!

- That's enough, go!

You go in!

Come on guys!

- Go!

Hail Lord Ganesh!

Yours is 10 feet and

ours is 12 feet tall!

Look at our taller Ganesh!

Rakesh, their Ganesh is

taller than ours.- Yes.

You come! Look there!

Break it!

Come on boys, hold it!

Give that to me!

Watch now!

Look! Silver Ganesh!

Weighs one kilogram!

Come!

- What are you doing?

Come on boys!

Hey boys! God...

That is your level! That is!

That is your level!

We were proud of having

but didn't expect Gold phase people

would put us to shame like this.

We gave a good thought about

the reasons for that.

Nagaraj says money,

l said we don't have

self confidence.

We mustn't leave it, we must

compete with them in everything.

Participate in beauty contests too!

- Beauty contests?

Beauty contest?

- What's beauty contest?

Why not? What do we lack?

Aren't there girls here?

One more thing,

we must do it anyway!

Nobody from B-phase must

work in Gold phase.

That would be best!

What? Beauty contest?

Have you gone mad? No way!

Then, l'll never talk to you.

l don't care ifyou don't talk.

Then, l'll stop eating.

Motherwanted to get it

You're a natural suitor to her!

Why are you still hesitating?

Please listen to me.

Before the groom comes to see her,

- That's all!

Can you ask Paru?

- Me?

Look at him!

Emraan Hashmi's film is the best.

But no film is on show.

So what? Why not ask her once?

Would she come or not or refuse you?

You can know it by face reaction.
