'At the end of

the British rule in 1947...'

'...I was in India for

astronomical research'

'I went to a small village in South India

which was tilled with superstition'

'The people in the village thought,

I was a British officer'

Everyone greet the officer

'I was the first person to

capture them in a camera...'

'...the people possessed a lot of fear'

'They saw the camera

as a strange object'

'During that time, there had

been an outbreak of disease'

'Which had taken

the lives of many people'

'Due to the lack of awareness...'

'...they couldn't understand why

so many people are dying'

'Being superstitious, they

blamed the photograph'

'During that time...'

Oh My God! There is

an epidemic outbreak in our village

Please do protect us

'A bandit group had come to rob

the statue in there temple'

This idol is the only

hope for our village

Guys, just move away and give us space to

pick up the idol without any damages

Please don't take it away, we will

give you everything we have got

I will kneel down and request

Why do you have to

kneel and request?

Please tell them not to hurt

Please do tell

Please tell them

not to take away our hope

I will give you anything you ask for,

Please don't take the idol

Until I am alive,

You can never take it away

Oh God, please save us

You saved us all, My Lord

"You rose for us from the sun

You're our sole companion"

'Just as I how calculated,

Meteorite from space hit the village'

'Immediately after this happened,

the people were cured'

'They began to worship the meteorite'

"You rose for us from the sun

You're our sole companion"

"You're our saviour

You're our utmost wealth"

"You're the healer, worries are

farther when you are with us"

"You're the healer, worries are

farther when you are with us"

"Bless the village,

to enthral the folk"

"And shower us Your grace"

"You brought us rain

You brought us wealth and peace"

"You'll be an eternal soul

You're the light of our lives"

"You rose for us from the sun

You're our sole companion"

"You're the healer, worries are

farther when you are with us"

'The villagers forced me

out of the village'

'But I was able to take some samples

of the meteorite for my research'

'Of my research, I found that meteorite

contains many priceless materials'

'But I didn't want to

break up people's belief'

'So I didn't tell anything

about this to the government'

- Is it Gopi?

- Yes speaking

- Immediately have to take a photograph

- Sorry, our office won't work today

Please don't say that,

I can even pay you more

No way, our hero's movie

is releasing today

Without even brushing the teeth,

Guys have gone to buy tickets

I heard you're the best

photographer in this district

Since morning, I've been waiting

in front of your shop

Okay, you'll find the keys

above the studio door

Open the door

and wait inside

- Do order for a tea in the nearby shop

- Sure! Thanks for coming

Senseless idiot,

want me to wait in this dark

Where will I find the switch?

I will switch it on,

You just come in

Brother, what are you doing here?

You spoke to me on the shop number,

So where do you expect me to be?

- Just come

- Okay, brother

Would you like to have a tea?

Yes

Good! You go and have it

I'll bath and come

Okay, sir

It's a family photo

Stay there

You guys ready?

Move to your right

Still move

Bit to your left

Yeah now come front

Dad, I wanna pee

Spread your legs and stand,

you won't pee

Fix your position

- I am the King of the world

- Super dude

Look there, most of

them went inside

If we had waited for the bike to start,

movie would have been over

Just because its our stars movie we

shouldn't have gone for all the shows

Tomorrow we are repeating the same

Your cousins, bro?

But their physique

doesn't relate to you

You said it's a minute

break and went

Is this a studio or a bathroom?

Urinated here

Master, your cousin-

Sir, we have reached the studio

As said by the fortune teller,

lam stepping into Hollywood today

Owner:
Mr Gopi

lam coming

Take your tips

Hey, first give me

the rickshaw fare

Excuse Mr Rickshaw driver, why don't

you get my autographed cheque leaf?

Hey useless, your wallet

doesn't have 50 paise

But you sign autographs

What will you do for today's lunch?

I am going in for that

Don't be silly

Mr Gopi

How are you?

Welcome Eshwaran,

How are you?

- Please sit down

- I am seated already

I saw the board outside

It's very nice

Only if we can think big,

we can achieve our goal

Even I have thought

about changing my name

Then how about your

search for movie roles?

Brother, switch on that tan

Don't look at me, switch it on

Gopi, I only get double

hero subject scripts

Else I get a mini budget script

If not the story is very poor

So have decided to act only

in a heavy budget script

Thought you had a quarrel

outside for 50 paise

0h you heard that

I gave him the money

Let this be within us

Hey, switch off the fan

Please don't switch off

the fan, Gopi

I'll tell the truth

I have to live in front of

the AVM gates, if I wish to be a hero

If I go for auditions,

they bully me

It's been really difficult

How to become a hero

within 30 days?

That too the trouble from assistants

Too much nowadays

- Okay, what's the name of your village?

- Gopi, don't talk about my village

They are the ones who buried

my interest in movies

At least there you can do farming

and live with respect

Me?

Until my movie runs

successfully for 100 days

Will never step back

That's why I have come to you

Please do shoot a few

good photographs of me

That's alright! Have you got

money to pay for the photos?

- Definitely, how much?

- 5 copies cost you 5 rupees

What will you give for one rupee?

Will give you the film negative

Is that, okay?

That's okay! They can see me

in that negative right

Even a handsome guy would look

like a devil in his negative

You look like a devil already,

think about your negative

Go and get 5 rupees

Have come without

money to the studio

Gopi, just for 5 rupees your

assistant has insulted me

I'll come back within

a week with 50 rupees

Let me see what you

will do at that time

All the best

Switch off your fan

Take the camera

Hey Alagumani, it's a girls school

Just come and do you work alone

Don't doubt my character master

Girls, we won't

get back our school life

It's good to have a photo

to cherish our memories

So we are gonna have

a photo session today

They are the photographers

- it will take at least 2 weeks

- It's okay, let me inform HM

Okay, I'll do my best

When you are gonna

open your studio?

What will be your studio name?

- What's your name?

- Subbulakshmi

Let's keep it as

Subbulakshmi studio

Do add her mom's name as well

Hey Subbulakshmi, your mom's...

Still you don't know
