Papanasam Page #7

I won't come tomorrow

and day after to work

Take care of the shop

Where are you going, brother?

To a prayer

A prayer?

Meditation

I'm being nagged at home

Badgering me-

What happened to you today?

Why?

You came that way,

you're going out this way

This is my shop

Don't I know how to go out?

I'll be back in 2 days

If you do any messing up

with the accounts...

...I'll kill you

Now you are back to form

- Brother

- What now?

It's raining outside

Here

Rani?

It's me

Ma, it's dad

Where did you go

for so long?

Dad?

What is happening here?

We've been worried sick

Where were you?

Don't leave us alone

like this and go, dad

Okay, I won't

Enough?

Don't cry

Dad, what did you

do to the car?

Which car?

Varun's car

That car-

I pledged it

Satisfied?

One rule from now on

I'll tell you only what

you need to know

Enough if you know

only that much

Don't speak another word

Understand?

Understood?

Got it?

Go and get me a towel

I need to dry myself

You aren't tensed

even one bit?

Tensed about what?

That boy we-

Which boy?

A boy never came here

We didn't see anyone

We know nothing

But Varun-

Who is he?

Sit

Sit down

We don't know

any boy by that name

Neither did any boy come here

That's how our mindset should be

We must not be scared or tensed

Or else we'll get caught

I understood that today

I'm coming back

from my office

The minute I entered,

Sermadurai asked me

'Why have you changed

so much, brother?'

If that fool saw

a difference in me...

...then imagine the others

So what happened

has happened

Forget everything

And behave normally

with everyone

All of you get ready

We're going on

a trip tomorrow

- Where?

- Tenkasi

Why?

We shouldn't be here

for the next 2 days

If someone asks...

...we say we're going

for that meditation

Which meditation?

That flyer you showed me

- Swami Varadananda

- Yes, that holy man

It ended yesterday

Oh! It's over?

Yesterday, today or tomorrow?

Why are you confusing me?

Hello, brother

- Long time since I saw you

- Yes, very true

New bus, huh?

How can I afford a new bus?

This was running in Kerala

It was comfortable

So I bought it

Going far?

No...here, up to Tenkasi

For a community prayer

Swami Varadananda

Oh yes! Heard of him

My family wanted to go

Here

How can you pay

for the tickets?

It's our bus, our money

Keep quiet

No, we are 4 of us

Just keep it

No...no...no

"A question, one only"

"Rising within repeatedly"

"Again and again the same dream pans"

"God's hand or man's plans"

"In the river that flows freely

yesterday's water can you see?"

"Yesterday has an illusive identity"

"Though the tempest tries to stampede

the reed by the river doesn't yield"

"That iron will needed in words and deed"

"Can't we hear the early morning raga?"

"Won't the sky be our savior-saga?"

"There is only one question"

"Rearing its head in repetition"

"Will the spider be imprisoned

in its own tangled web woven?"

"Mind is well and truly caught within

the net of deceit in the name of sin"

"The child protected by parents

will live a 100 years in blessedness"

"The good we've done in this life

will kill evil, protect us from strife"

"Love is our document indeed"

"Our good deeds will be our shield"

"A solitary question one and only"

"Emerging within endlessly"

"Still tormented by the same dream"

"God's will or man's scheme"

Rani

How many times

have I told you?

Don't keep staring out

We must forget everything

I want to forget

But I can't

What do you

want me to do?

We have to forget

If you're all this scared...

...we'll get caught for sure

Only if you listen to me

and cooperate...

...our family can

escape this mishap

From now on, we keep bills

for everything we buy

Fruits, vegetables, milk, whatever

Understand?

"Violence

Or intelligence?"

"Which will whip the other?

My dear mind, please whisper"

"The IQ called gray matter

is a weapon that wins world over"

"If a tadpole crawls on a boulder

it doesn't leave any imprint ever"

"Truth like the roots of a tree

if out in the open, it's catastrophe"

"An unshared mind locks the secret"

"Our bond is priority on our planet"

"One and only question

Raising its head in repetition"

"Continually same dream spans"

"God's hand or man's plans"

Madam, from the cell phone signal...

...it can be traced from

Tenkasi to Tuticorin

Chennai, Visakhapatnam

Via Bhopal to Mumbai

The final signal was traced...

...from a tower in

an industrial area

The phone has been

switched off at that location

He has some friends in Mumbai

Why did he go

to Visakhapatnam?

Maybe he went on

a road trip with friends

"Just 1 question, exclusively"

"Simmering within agonizingly"

"In the river that flows freely

yesterday's water can you see?"

"Yesterday has an elusive quality"

"Though the hurricane blows with speed

the reed by the river doesn't yield"

"That will-power is needed indeed"

"Can't we hear the morning raga echo?"

"Won't the sky in gladness glow?"

"Is there a lining to

our cloud of sorrow?"

"Won't our sky burst into an orange halo?"

Varun's car?

'Intermission'

How was the car found?

Some boys who were

fishing here saw it

Has it been here for many days?

At least 2 or 3 weeks

Did you find anything in the pond-

We searched thoroughly

with local swimmers

There's nothing

to be afraid of

- Mr Selvadurai

- Madam?

Make sure there is

no media publicity

Let it be a secret

We have traced Varun's

last call from his cell phone

On the night of August 2nd

at 7:
18 p.m he has called

99400 76191

We checked the tower

It's a place called Sunga

near Papanasam

And then at 10:
15 p.m...

...it went out of coverage

Then the next day at 9:24 a.m...

...it was traced again

to Tenkasi town range

Finally near Mumbai

it has got switched off

Even so...

...looking at the evidence

we have got so far

...I don't think this investigation

needs to go out of Tamil Nadu

We have to find the person

Varun spoke last with

Send him in

Madam, from the account number

you gave me, money last withdrawn

...was on the morning

of August 2nd at 10:00 a.m

...in an ATM in the Tenkasi junction

- How much did he withdraw?

- Rs 20,000 sir

Twenty-

Why did he withdraw so much?

Madam, I have a doubt

The IMEI number of the phone

that went out of range on the 2nd...

...and the IMEI # that appeared

in range on the 3rd are different

Would he have taken the money

to buy a new phone?

No...he has a new phone

It hasn't even been a month

since he bought it

He wouldn't have

changed it so quickly

Sermadurai...?

What is this?

The tax bill to

pay the Panchayat

When did you get it?

Why are you scratching?

Do you have lice on your head?

It's been 3 weeks

since I told you

Not that long-

I'll hit you!

This is Varun Prabhakar

Inspector General

Geetha Prabhakar's only son

He's missing

He came to this town

on the 2nd of August

There's a cell phone record

to confirm his arrival
