"In the language of love I interact

Quietly through eye-contact"

"I became a field with grains windblown

And a pond rippled by a stone"

"As your gaze settled on me alone"

"I'm caught in a whirlpool of senses

I see you everywhere, my princess"

"As love sprouted roots defenseless"

"I should become your half sari

to drape on your shoulder softly"

"Your waist, stride, braid duly blessed

My heart as your shadow fully possessed"

"I keep talking my love's language

Soundless only my eyes engage"

"Swaying to folk music, swinging to and fro

won't your anklets in rhythm echo?"

"Like water breaking many a barrier

chariot-like, won't my mind waver in favor?"

"I refer the almanac eagerly

I ask the priest earnestly"

"To fix our wedding date quickly

Rest I'll whisper on our wedding night only"

"I speak love's language

Only my eyes flash the message"

"Angel of this village, kindly define

How do I explain this pain of mine?"

"Mind is eager to take

as mine for my own sake"

"Carry to eternal heights above

Who can question your move?"

"God above is witness

Watching you with indulgence"

It's mid January and you've

still not put back your vow-thread

When do you intend

fulfilling your vow?

Some people are

asking me to put it

Some people are

asking me not to

Why should I care

about anyone's opinion?

I've made up my mind

to see Lord Muruga

Might as well go

to the temple

'May the envious eyes of family,

friends, foe, fauna, flora not flourish'

She spat on my shirt!

Should you give us

your produce every year?

It's the only way

we can repay your love

What will we old people do?

Give it to your children

Okay, go inside

Where is your new dress?

- It's inside my box, ma

- Why didn't you wear it today?

It'll get dirty, right?

I'll wear it next year

Aiyo...go, you jackass!

I've served dinner for you

and I've been looking for you

What're you doing here?

Nothing...just looking

I just came out

and you followed me

Come, let's eat

What happened?

What do you mean

what happened?

Do you think

I can't read your mind?

Pongal celebrations are over

and you don't know what to do...

...when our family friend

comes back for his car back, no?

That's why I kept telling you

not to revel in someone else's car

Did you listen?

Murugesan walks with

his head stuck in the clouds!

If it goes, so be it

- You and your pearls of wisdom!

I was preoccupied with something else

and you butted into my thoughts!

I had totally forgotten about that

You're only making me remember

If he comes and asks,

I'll return it to him

if I keep thinking about it

will the car become mine?

If it has to go, it will

Come, let's eat dinner

- Maaa?

- Come

How are you?

Oh! Back from the temple?

Wait

You won't shave even

after visiting the temple

- Where is sir?

- He's up, in his room

I'll give him this sacred ash

Come here for a second

He has been kind of dull

these past few days

Why?

What happened?

Shanmugam bro said he'd take

the car back, no? That's why

We took care of it

like our baby all these days

And he'll just come

and take it away, huh?

Who asked you to shower

baby-love on someone else's car?

Did you even listen when

I kept harping on this?

Okay, leave it

We'll try to talk him

out of taking it back

Otherwise, we'll buy

a new car like this

No need of a new car

Let's just keep this one

Can we buy them a new one?

If someone asks you

to take care of his car...

...you'll act as if you own it

And if he asks for it back,

you'll ask him to get another car?

Height of justice!

He'll buy a car it seems

Like he's rolling in money!

Aiyah...?

You got back just now?

Ask my wife to keep it

in the prayer room

I'll shower and then

take the sacred offerings

Why do you look so dull?

Aiyah, when Shanmugam sir comes,

we'll buy the car from him

Otherwise...I'll beg, plead, request

and retain the car here somehow

It has been with us for so long-

-it's not just you

Even your dear wife

can't be without it, you know?

Aiyah...the car won't leave us

No

Don't ask me howl know

I don't have an answer

But I know for sure it won't

- Welcome, bro

- Come inside

Sit here

Move a little

Bring a leaf, bro

Sit down

Serve some gravy

Malar, serve some gravy here

Look there

I'm scared to even look, bro

I'll kill you...look!

She's looking at us, bro

She'll definitely not look now

Stop...stop...stop, bro

Your girl is looking this way

Who are these chaps?

Following us around

They've come here also, see?

Why are you following me now?

Don't try all this with me

That's all

Bro, are you sad

she yelled at you?

That's why I warned you

Do we need all this?

We should just go about

our business quietly

Did I grumble and

grieve to you I'm sad?

Why don't you zip your lips

and attend to your work?

Will a girl voluntarily say,

'come, circle all around me all day'?

I know how to take care of this

Go and collect

all the cow dung

- Murugesa

- Aiyah...?

Get lost

- Shall we go?

- Yes, sir

If he showered at all,

we can take him with us too

No need, sir

Get into the car

- Where?

- To the cinema!

Obviously to the temple

To the temple only, right

Why are you calling me?

Did I go in this car to

the temple all these days?

I can't get into

someone else's car

Do you even know

how to drive a car?

You learn to drive

and then call me

if I don't come, then

you can question me

Until then, don't call me

Wait...!

I'll drive and show you

- Are you ready?

- Yes

- Shall we start?

- Let's drive

- Then get inside

- Okay, right

Sir, close the door properly

- Just 2 days

- Can learn by then?

You'll rip the door apart!

Shall we get to the issue?

Murugesa, why do you often look

at this mirror when you're driving?

To straighten out your

ruffled hair when it gets windy

To check the vehicles

behind us, sir

Shall we start

what we came for?

There are 3 levers

at the bottom, right?

That's how the car runs

Why look at my mouth?

Look at your feet!

Press your left foot

on the 1st one

That's the clutch

Put your right foot on

the 3rd one, that's the accel-

There's 1 more-

I'm jobless here

Shall I put my foot there?

Why are you yelling

at me, Murugesa?

I'm trying to teach you, no?

- Okay, Okay

- Listen carefully

1st lever is the clutch

3rd is the accelerator

- Middle one is...?

- Brake

1st one?

-3rd one...?

-3rd one...hmmm?

Accel

1st one...?

Middle one?

Don't look at my mouth

Look down

- 1st one?

- 1st lever-

- 3rd?

- Murugesa...!

1st lever

- Murugesa, 1st one?

- Clutch

- Murugesa, what's the 1st onel?

- Clutch!

Clutch, clutch, yes...okay

- Hello?

- Who is it?

Isn't Muthunayagam there?

- And you are...?

- Shanmugam speaking

- Sir...?

- Will you call him?

Right away

Sir...aiyah...?

- Who's on the phone?

- Shanmugam bro!

- Where are you off to?

- Shanmugam sir is on the phone

What did he say?

I don't know, your wife

is talking to him now

She's talking...?
