Uncle's eldest son. He is in the US.

Hi.

Hi.

Aren't we meeting each

other for the first time?

Yes, but I have heard

a lot about you from Dad.

This is Aishwarya.

Hi.

- Her marriage is fixed..

...very soon, right?

Yes, definitely before

they know more about her.

Aju, just leave her alone.

This is the most powerful

person in this house.

He makes even Krishnamurthy uncle

dance to his tunes. Uncle's second son,

Ajmal Mohammad.

You are confused

due to my name, right?

SlighflY-

Your doubt is valid. I'm a Muslim.

My house is next door.

My parents died when I was a kid,

then I grew up in this house.

Now, this is my family.

How lucky they are!

You introduced all

of us to Gayathri.

But,

you haven't introduced her.

I think that can be easily guessed.

Brother,

then why don't you try guessing?

Apparently,

she is too young to be your wife.

...daughter?

Looks like I will have to whack him.

Not daughter then.

This is my only sibling Gayathri.

For the past two years,

she has been studying at Mumbai.

Now, she will be

with me for a while.

By then, I will have

to find a suitor for her.

Eh?

Sister, which course

did you complete?

MBA.

Child, aren't you trying for a job?

Not immediately.

- You eat!

Tired of being in a hostel and boarding.

- Speaking...

I wish to stay with

my brother for a while.

Should we allow your

brother to get away like this?

Shouldn't we find a match for him soon?

- Yes, we should...

...very soon.

Daughter,

can you please switch on the TV?

What happened, Sarathy?

It's...

another outbreak.

One second, doctor.

Yeah, tell me.

How bad is the situation?

This is the fourth child now.

What kind of disease is this,

doctor?

It starts with a fever.

Followed by heavy vomiting.

If you go by the symptoms,

this looks like viral myocarditis.

But, this is more

dangerous than that.

Aren't the medicines

for this ailment available?

The drug is showing

effect only on elders.

There is an 80% risk for children.

I have informed the drug

manufacturer about this.

Doctor, one second.

- One second, Sir.

Brother...

-What is it?

If I tell you a secret,

will you keep it in your mind?

Ha. When have I spilled

the beans on any secrets?

What do you think about Gayathri ?

Which Gayathri?

How many Gayathri's do you know?

Oh! Our..

...that kid.

She is not at all a kid.

A grown up lady.

Really? I didn't notice.

Oh, then there is no point talking.

I'm going.

Wait, don't go. What's the matter?

If you haven't observed her,

there is no point mentioning.

Can't really say

that I haven't observed.

Erm..

Yes, I observed.

Tell me, what's the matter?

Actually, what just happened here

is an unofficial 'bride seeing'.

Oh! For whom?

See, brother...don't pretend!

Oh! For me?

I didn't request anyone

to seek proposals for me.

Oh, that's sad. Then I will

tell Dad that you aren't interested.

Uh...Why do you jump the

gun the moment you hear something?

You only said you don't

want to get married now.

I didn't say that. I just said

I don't want to seek proposals now.

Doesn't it mean,

you don't want to get married ?

Who said that?

Though I said I don't want to,

I don't want to hurt

Dad's feelings by saying a no.

Oh, I don't think his

feelings will be hurt.

Why is it that you

speak with any empathy?

If I had known about how things are,

I would have taken a detailed look.

Uh...what did you say?

No, I am an US returned malayalee.

There we spent couple

of years dating,

before deciding whether

to get married or not.

Any such possibility here?

I will try speaking

to Dad about this.

Why do you have to

tell everything to Dad?

Brother, both Parthasarathy Uncle

and Dad are interested in this alliance.

But, that alone isn't enough.

Gayathri sister should

also like this face of yours.

Oh! That's a problem.

Yes, that is a problem.

Hmm.. ls there any way to learn

if Gayathri sister is interested?

Hmm..

Don't even think about it.

I'll not ask her.

If you are really interested,

ask her directly.

I have invited her

for the engagement.

This is my birthplace.

After retirement,

Subbu and I plan to settle here.

Dad, what will you

do in such a remote place ?

I will do farming.

Fresh air,

water and home-grown vegetables.

A 100% healthy and

peaceful retired life.

The way you say it, it looks

like you are retiring tomorrow.

Another 5 years to go before retirement.

We can decide this in time.

It's all decided, Surya.

I have also fixed the contract

for renovating this old house.

These are just our plans, but

everything depends on God's plan.

Isn't that right? - Yes.

How's the place?

It's awesome.

I too love to live

in a place like this.

She is such a homely girl. It's

farming and gardening that interests her.

Then give her to us as our daughter.

Definitely.

I am only happy about it.

Daughter come along,

I'll show you around.

And, that's decided!

What?

She is your sister now!

You idiot, mom meant daughter-n-law,

when she said 'daughter'.

I have my doubts.

Being them, anything is possible.

They adopt without any reason.

They adopted me.

So it's very much possible.

Don't speak such ill-fated words.

Haven't you been trying to read

her mind for a while now? Any hope?

Not easy as I imagined.

I tried my best,

but she isn't revealing anything.

Slightly reserved type.

Brother, to get a girl to fall for you..

...you should first learn

about her likes and dislikes.

In that case, better to

get a spade and start farming.

Didn't you hear that

she loves farming?

Aha!

Are you returning?

Do you know how long

he's been waiting for you?

Being the day that

Surya is leaving...

...you could have taken half day leave.

- What happened for that?

That's why I came on time,

right Surya?

Subbu, I'm a Government employee.

I have certain responsibilities.

Dad, can't you stop being busy 2417?

Do we need this social service,

neglecting our own health?

You needn't worry about all that.

I will take care.

Don't be late, start now.

OK, dad.

Bye, son.

Have lunch and go.

Lunch? Later.

With body torn to shreds"

...it was a miserable death due

to car bomb explosion at 2:30 PM.

Mother, please come fast.

- What is it?

Police are on the lookout for the culprit.

- What is it, daughter?

Amma, see...S.P. Uncle. [Voice over]

They have ordered for an investigation.

The unexpected death of

honest officer Parthasarathy...

0h, my God!

Daughter, Dad has gone to see him.

Daughter, call dad.

I'm calling dad only.

Dad's phone is switched off.

Oh, no!

Girl, please call Aju.

What happened?

He is not picking up.

-Yes Achu?

Hello.

- Hello, brother.

What? When?

I just saw it in TV right now.

Dad went to see S.P. Uncle.

And, dad is not reachable on phone.

I'm feeling scared, brother.

I just saw dad right now.

When?

Just five minutes back.

He told, he was returning

after meeting S.P. sir.

On, is it?

What, what is it?

Brother had seen
