to donate to the temple...

...or lavishly spend on wedding gifts

for Tom, Dick and Hari!

But if our children want something

you'll come up with excuses

If I don't do it

no one will respect me

Bloody respect!

Sekhar became a councilor and built

a house for himself in 2 years

You sublet our rented house and

we are sitting in the terrace here!

Easy for you to say

You are out most of the time

Only we bear

the brunt of the sun

- Is your father in?

- He's inside

Can't even buy

an air-conditioner

Father, Palani anna is here

Back again like a bad penny!

Will you shut up?

Palani, District collector said

he would be coming over

Open up the office

I'll be there soon

Okay, bro

Did you speak to Venkat?

Yes, I did

How can you think

he is qualified?

You spoke to Pugazh

That was a good move

Don't be a nitwit

Pugazh and Venkat

make a duo

They are real thick friends

from childhood

So what, bro?

He isn't even in our ward

How will the people in my street

vote for him then?

Our party isn't a state or

central political party

Purely caste oriented

Only our men will vote if you or

anyone else stands in your ward

You won't even get back your deposit

But Venkat's story is different

He is very friendly by nature

He has nurtured a rapport

with all of them

On top of it

Pugazh is his second skin

What else do you want?

Don't worry about any of this

Once the election is over

I'll find you a good party post

Leave now

At least this time, will you

occupy the Chairman's seat?

For sure, bro

In 26 wards in this town

our flag flies uncontested

We were unable

to hoist one here

We managed it here also

We will win definitely

Das, is the distribution of

money and gifts going smooth?

No, bro

Election commission is hawkeyed!

Police are swarming

all over the place

I am trying to do my best

You're the reason

for our flag flying here

I just now said so

to our minister

Somehow stick to Venkat

and make him win, Pugazh

You focus on

some other ward

As far as this ward goes

he is the councilor

Bro, kindly remember

to vote for our Venkat

Pugazh, don't you know

your word is gospel to us?

That boy is already

a wasted wastrel!

Now he is stepping

into politics, huh?

At least you could have made him

stand in our ward, right?

Having sinned to be his parents,

we would have voted for him

Don't you worry about anything

Just watch how

we shape him up

"Not passed 2nd grade duly

Aspire to be a politician coolly"

"A corrupt mind wants to be

clad in crisp white shirt daily"

"Every election you'll stand

Our votes you'll demand"

Venkat, bring your ward list

Hello, Pugazh

Give Pugazh 10 pieces

- Take, Pugazh

- For what, bro?

Gold coin

If I give in my ward

no one will accept, bro

Who will say no to gold?

Of course they will accept

You distribute it

Bro, give the coins to him

'This is quite common

in politics, I say'

Hey! What are you doing?

With the election commission

hot on our heels...

...we'll be counting bars

with our families!

Why are you inviting trouble?

Keep this for now

Rest we will give you

the day before election

Don't get swayed over

by what others give you

Here you are, all yours

New bike worth Rs 85000

Madasami anna

20 votes in your family

All of you go and vote for

the axe symbol decisively

Not 1 vote should go amiss

That's why you got the bike

My son has been asking me

for a bike for past 2 years

I'm unable to get him one

How ironical!

Hey! Why are you

unloading all this here?

Where else, bro?

You want to announce

to the whole world?

Take it to our quarry

You could have

allocated a ward for us

We could have, friend

What will you do

with just a ward?

No one is qualified to stand

in your party is another matter

Who will foot the bill?

Uncle, steeped in your problem

don't forget to vote for him

He is part and parcel

of our party

Das, this is like selling ice to

the Eskimos, he is our boy!

Spend this time in other houses

Get the best out of your party

and make our boy win

Alright, Arasu

Glad to hear this

Don't harbor any ill feeling

It is your responsibility

to make him win

At least shouldn't you

advise your son?

You think he will

heed my words?

Don't talk to me about him

My wife and I will vote for you

You can be assured of that

Arasu, why can't you advise

your brother properly?

They are canvassing

for that boy Venkat

How can you trust Das?

This won't work

What more can I say?

I've been a councilor for past 2 years

and attending funerals and weddings

Why is Pugazh poking his nose into this?

- I feel bad

- They are just boys

And doing this

in a playful manner

You're making a mountain

out of a molehill

Only his vote counts?

My mother, my wife and I can vote

Only you'll win this time

Go with confidence

Don't forget to

vote for Venkat

Aunt, vote for Venkat

Let's go to that house

No, let's go there

She isn't even eligible to vote

What if she doesn't

have any vote?

She can canvas for us

If she does, she'll turn the voter

against us, she's such a shrew

Give me a pamphlet

Vote for Venkat without fail

Our names won't be listed here

The neighbors Gita and

her sister are out of town

You can vote in her sister's name

Ask her to vote

instead of Gita

My friends will be in the booth

You won't face any problem

You're asking me to do

an illegal proxy vote

Won't you do even this for a friend?

Why should she take a risk

for your friend?

Shut up

She isn't here

on the election day

She'll be in Hyderabad

for an interview

Oh! Next time Venkat will

stand in Andhra Pradesh

We'll let you know then

Smart Alec!

Let's get some crackers

Bring them when I tell you

Leave now

I have my own reasons

We'll deal with it later, go
