The bride & the auspicious

thread is here.

And groom's people will

be waiting for us.

The auspicious time

is going to pass away.

In such a situation,

you're stopping the buses.

Who will be responsible if my

daughter's life gets ruined.

Hey, get lost. - Cruel people.

Sir, I've got the last

chance for an interview.

If I don't get the job

I'll have to commit suicide.

Sir, I beg of you,

please start the bus.

Sir, my husband is almost on

the verge of dying.

I have to take him

to the hospital. - Madam, what can I do?

I can start the bus only

if the vehicles parked in the front move.

Oh god! What can I do?

Sir, the driver is not

prepared to negotiate.

Even the students are adamant.

Move, move... - Don't beat us

we are the reporters.

Hey, the problem is between a

student and the driver of that bus.

Why has the traffic of

the entire city been blocked?

Who is the driver of

this bus? Remove the bus.

I'll not.

Hey come here. You're

a driver, aren't you?

Yes sir. - Take the bus and

clear the road.

Hey, all of you move.

Start, let me also see!

You carry on. He'll get up.

If you kill me,

my caste people won't spare you?

The whole State of Tamil Nadu

will go up on flames.

Let me also see,

go over me.

Come on, do it.

Let me also see.

Hey, How has caste

come in between?

Alpha calling control.

Connect me to C.M. Urgently.

Hello leader, I'm Palasami speaking.

They have run over a bus on the

driver who belongs to our caste.

My blood is boiling.

Are we of no consequences?

We have to show them our worth.

Immediately call for a strike.

There should not be any movement

throughout the city.

Sir, the Commissioner is

on the line.

Tell me.

Sir, the situation

here has worsened.

On one side,

they say its the Ruling party.

And on the other caste problem.

It has become like a battle field.

You are the Home Minister.

If you permit us, we can

stop everything within minutes.

Hello, don't take any hasty decision.

In this problem, one driver is

from my party.

And another driver is belongs to the

Caste which made me win.

The Students support is also

important for me.

That's why if you do any

harm to anybody.

I'll be in problem.

It will harm me.

Damn it.

Only because of the fear of

losing their support,

such small letter pad parties

& such Caste leaders,

are holding the Government to ransom.

If we don't take any action, they'll

convert the city into a graveyard.

Atleast give order to use

tear gas and disperse the crowd.

Hey, if I listen to you

and issue Tear Gas order,

Public will not disperse.

My power will dissipate.

That's because the four legged

chair on which I am sitting,

all its four legs are not mine.

One leg is of the Alliance Party.

Second leg is of the Caste leader.

Third leg is of the Financier

who finances the whole show.

And the fourth one is of

the Party Members.

Even if we lose any one leg out of the four.

We'll be made to bite the dust.

We shouldn't end these problems.

We have to play Politics through these.

Mr. Commissioner,

no tear gas & arrest.

They'll shout for sometime and

cool down themselves.

Oh God! Check mate

- You girls are playing Chess.

Hey, why these two T. V's

One for my 1st. Wife & the

other for my second wife.

You scoundrel!

Robbing for your concubine?

Exam. Would have started.

My preparation has gone waste.

Sir, the situation has gone

beyond control.

Everywhere shops are being broken,

stoned, buses being damaged.

Public property is being

damaged to a large extent.

We can't control,

unless you give the shooting orders.

Hey, if I had to give the shooting orders,

I would have done that long back.

Do you know, how big a problem can

be created because of it.

Instead let glasses break.

I'll send that Caste Leader

and Education Minister.

Be patient, till then.

He is fit for nothing.

He can't take immediate decision.

Oh my Godl

Hey, look at this.

My Godl

- If he is left here like this he might die.

Is there any hospital near by?

There is one S. M Hospital,

which is 1 km. From here.

In the present scenario

traffic will not get cleared.

Alright, hold this.

Hello, what's your name?

Hello, Paremalakujalambal! - What!

I am calling you only.

Oh! I am not Paremalakujalambal.

- Okay. Abithakujalambal.

Oh! Not Abithakujalambal either.

- Alright! Kunthravali!

Hey! Don't tease me like this

- You're not telling your name,

then how can I call you? - You don't

have to call me by name.

Hey! Kunjaee!

- Oh God! It's horrible

Your name will be Kunjaee

till you tell me your name.

Go, go Thopla! - What! Thopla!

If I am Kunjaee

then you are Thopala.

All are telling lies.

Who is she?

Come and watch the bioscope.

In front of you all are telling lies.

Oh! It's me!

This is my present

for telling the truth.

There is no power for

light, isn't it? - Yes.

Did you like this? - It's not good.

Why? - You've caught me crying.

It's horrible.

You've seen the pictures.

Please tell me your name now.

It is there in the picture

see it. - Alright.

Thenmozhi can't you

keep your mouth shut.

Thenmozhi!

The joke is, that the student who was

the cause of the strike,

you all will be surprised

to know about that student.

Student, who was struggling

for his life,

our Q T. V cameraman.

Admitted him in the hospital

with great difficulty.

Kumar, how are you? - I am fine.

If you were late by few more minutes,

you would have lost more blood,

and then we wouldn't have been

able to save you.

Thank you, Doctor.

Don't thank me, Thank him.

Thank you. - All the credit goes to,

Our Q T. V Cameraman Mr. Pugazhendhi.

It's okay.

Oh! Thopala!

Hey! Why have you all gathered here?

- All have gathered for you.

Why are you shaking my hands?

What's special today?

Coverage of strike

which was done by you.

It has become very popular

in the Network.

They are repeatedly showing the

coverage on every channel.

Calls are coming continuously asking,

who is Pugal, Who is Pugal?

T.R. P rate has

reached peak level.

From today, you're not a Cameraman.

You're a Senior Reporter. Take this.

Thank you sir-Best of luck.

Madam, milk... milk...

Hey! Don't make noise,

getting tickled in the hips.

Name is Pugazhendhi,

shooting Cameraman.

Wow, so nice.

Hey! She is mine.

Go that side. - Okay.

Oh God! - Hello.

Hey! You stupid!

You took photos when

I am bathing,

and you will telecast them

and show them to the public.

Show me.

Show me all what you've taken.

- Wait. I'll show you

You thought I am a fool?

- Oh! It's not like that.

Alright, look at this.

Move.

Move man.

Oh! Do I look like this?

Why are you taking my photos?

That day, you didn't like

your crying photos,

that's why.

I want to show you,

your beauty

That's why I am taking

photo's since morning.

I thought of taking your photo's

the whole day,

in between, something bit my leg,

and I shouted,

you also shouted & the entire

program collapsed.
