-Why are you hitting me?

Won't you obey us?

Are you shameless?

Silence.

Are you mad?

Some children are mischievous,

but they are good students.

Your daughter only does mischief.

I'll wait till her half term exams.

If she does well, we'll see.

Or else, I will expel her.

If only he'd always be this quiet.

I hit him so badly, but those teachers

and principal didn't even budge.

I'm furious at that principal, too.

I wanted to steal something I liked

from her table.

But couldn't.

However

Divya!

Mom...

I'm sorry, Mom.

I won't do this again!

Dear...

Shall I quit my job?

I'll stay home full time

and take care of him.

Nobody likes me.

Everyone says I'm a naughty boy.

Mum and Dad are hitting me.

My teachers scold me

and punish me.

I really won't do mischief again.

But no one will believe me!

I promise!

You're always home. This is your job.

Can I go to work and manage this, too?

Why is she so bad at studies?

What do you do at home?

You send the child to school

and sleep all day.

Is this too hard?

I'll put her in a hostel if she doesn't

score well in the half term exams.

Let's go to a good doctor tomorrow.

This is called Dyscalculia.

Need to treat her for at least two months

to arrive at a diagnosis.

They just give it some new name,

get us to do X Rays, E.C.Gs and scans

Just to write "Nil" everywhere

and take our money.

They give us a fright!

He's not hyperactive.

He's active.

There's a world of difference between

hyperactive and overactive.

Don't worry.

-Mummy!

We had lots of space to play

back home in small towns.

We had trees to climb.

We had wells to swim in.

But now?

We lock them up in 750 square foot space

and complain that they're naughty.

What can he do?

Be grateful that he's active.

This is how kids are at this age.

You were like this, too.

Why does she need counselling?

Medicines will lead to side effects!

They just blame it on the child

when the teachers are lazy.

When is the site visit?

What's up, Vidhya?

Little brat!

Always on the phone,

WhatsApp, Facebook or Twitter.

You coach her for exams from now.

No, it's nothing.

I'll just call you back. Bye!

Vidhya!

Please study, Kavin.

Exams are around the corner.

Your son has scored 100 marks.

Thank you!

Superb, boy.

We gave him extra coaching

He's scored 100 marks in total.

E Grade.

Oh no!

Sorry, Ma'am.

Very sorry, Ma'am.

Sharp, smart and intelligent.

But her scores?

Really poor.

Why don't you try some international school?

He's only getting worse with time.

There's no improvement.

I think he needs some counselling badly.

And immediately.

Our school is ranked Number 2.

We want to be Number 1.

See a good doctor.

I suspect he might have ADHD.

Ma'am, that's enough.

With every expulsion,

he gets one new illness in each school.

We'll leave.

Dad, didn't get the expulsion certificate?

Vidhya!

Vidhya, are you okay?

-Take this.

I just found out.

Let's not do this.

What if it's a boy?

-Doesn't matter.

Can't even handle one.

It'll be a struggle with one more.

We haven't even planned her expenses yet.

I want it, too.

Which school now?

Tambaram Chellamal School.

Need to pay 400 thousand rupees upfront

during admission.

But no extra expenses till she finishes school.

They'll return the money upon graduation,

just like house deposit.

Just need to get him in, somehow!

No matter how bratty he is

They won't expel, because they'd

have to return the money.

What do you say?

Okay.

So we'll find an apartment in that area?

Found one.

Each peach, pooch peach.

Choose your best plum.

Each peach pooch plum.

Choose your best plum.

My name is Kavin.

My name is Naina.

Which school?

-Chellamal.

Wow! Me too.

Which class?

3- 'B'

-Superb!

Bye!

-Bye.

You brat!

He worries me!

Don't just worry, Divya.

He's crossed 7.5 years of age.

No more troubles.

See? Bell is a good omen.

Careful.

-Tell me, Mom.

I looked into your horoscopes.

This is a good time for you.

Can't hear you.

Please repeat, Mom?

I said, times are very good

for you and your husband.

I told you.

But Kavin

His seven and a half year curse

begins tomorrow.

The astrologer said to watch out.

What seven and a half year curse, Dad?

That's nothing.

Your parents are going to get whopped

for the next seven and a half years.

So I won't get whopped?

No.

Only you'll get whop-whop-whopped?

Already getting whopped.

Right, Divya?

What?

Feel the good vibes?

Up next

To kickstart the games for 5 to 6 year olds

We request Dr. Tamizh Nadan and his wife,

the teacher Vemba, on to the stage.

Welcome!

-Greetings!

I've come here not as a doctor,

but a father. This is not necessary.

I'm not here as a teacher, either!

I'm not here as a student, either.

Dad!

-You must inaugurate it.

I'll do it, Dad.

See, your daughter has gone already.

You must do it.

Okay!

All the best.

-All the best.

Ready?

On your marks, get set..

Go!

Come on, Kamakshi!

Super, dear.

Oh no. Get up and run.

-Get up and run!

Help her up.

-Durga, get up and run.

Help her up.

Just get up and run.

-Are you hurt, dear?

She is embarrassing us.

-How can a fallen child run?

Take care of her.

-Why didn't you run?

Why did you fall?

-Why?

Come on, Kamakshi!

-What are you doing?

Baby, take the bottle and run.

Look at her!

What for?

-She is getting two bottles.

Okay, baby. Come back!

Why did you turn to look at me?

If you'd looked straight, you'd have won.

Such a waste.

You keep running around at home.

But you can't run in a race.

You came third!

Superb, Kamatchi.

-Very good, sweetie!

Baby, you ran fast to get the first bottle.

But why did you stop?

There were many bottles, Daddy.

But I wanted a pink bottle.

But there was a blue bottle in your track.

-You could have taken it.

But my favourite colour is pink.

So I waited and searched for it.

Then why did you go back

for the blue one?

Because brother would like it.

Here, brother.

How sweet!

-You're such a darling.

My darling!

Come here.

Superb, sweetie. You ran really well.

-Look at her!

She took what she wanted;

Not what she found.

Win or lose, she did what she wanted.

It's what I love about my Kamakshi.

I wouldn't have been this happy

even if you'd finished first.

You brought what you liked.

That's your individuality.

Wow!

"Our Tamizh Nadan ignored the jibes"

"He preserved his self respect

by running till the end."

"He will go places in his life."

We have admissions in our school tomorrow.

Greetings to all you parents.

To tell you about

our school's admission procedure

Over to our Special Educator Miss Vemba.

Greetings to everyone.

We all have aspirations for our children.

Those of you who wish their children to be

doctors, lawyers, engineers or collectors

Please raise your hand?

I want my son to become an aeronautical engineer.

Does it count?

Of course.

Thank you.

Firstly, my best wishes to all of you.

For mapping your child's future

while they are just three.
