Pugazh Page #9

---

Ma, did you get back

my ironed clothes?

In comes the 'royal pain'!

He promised to

bring it this afternoon

Maybe he has

closed his shop

Why didn't you collect it?

I told you I'm going out

Why are you shouting?

Drink this

I'll go check

if he's still there

Where is Selvi?

Won't she get all this done?

You think she listens to me?

He won't sleep a wink

if he doesn't make me work

"Don't trust your eyes ever"

He thinks he is

MGR or what?

What's wrong with my brother?

Please come

Sister-in-law?

- Did Bhuvana come here?

- No, she didn't

She has been here

since this morning

Please come in

Bhuvana

Why did you come here

without telling any of us?

Tell me if that blockhead

has left, I'll come

- What, Bhuvana?

- Her Uncle is here

I told him she has got a job in

Hyderabad and is joining next week

He was against her working

and said he'll find her a groom

Why is he behaving

like a marriage broker?

Come soon

I'll see you later

My son is asleep and alone

Selvi, deliver this basket

in your uncle's house

Okay

Bhuvana akka

- When are you joining work?

- Leaving tomorrow night

If you have any doubts,

get it cleared right now

After I leave, don't feel bad

you didn't ask me

How silly of me to say

all this to you

You need a special brand of guts

Hey, wait

Called me a coward?

What are you doing?

No...?

Akka, why did you push me?

What kind of

new game is this?

Forever listening

to MGR songs

Listen to 'king of love'

Gemini Ganesan's songs too!

I believe the opening scene

in the movie is awesome

- Shall we leave?

- Where to?

To the theater of course

Should be half way through by now

Oh! I see

Okay, forget it

We'll go for night show

I believe this Bhuvana is

going to Hyderabad tomorrow

Why are you feeling sad?

- Don't you know she likes me?

- Did she say so?

- No

- Then?

That's my question too

She's confessing it

to everyone in town

Why can't she tell me

face to face that she likes me?

This is too much

You're behaving like Prabhu

in the film 'Chinna Thambi'

- You think this is possible?

- Why not?

Listen to my voice of experience

No girl will profess her love

of her own accord

- 'Why' is my question?

- They just won't

Suppose after marriage

she doesn't get along...?

Then she needs an excuse to say

she never fell for you but you did

Dude, congratulations!

For all the times that girls have

trampled over you, I swear...

...1st time you're talking sense!

I knew it was a royal dig!

Pugazh, look there

- This is the right time

- For what?

- Express your love

- So I should be the 1st to tell her?

Don't waste time, go

Kidding?

You need guts to do so!

Want to see my guts?

Watch me now

Sit down

Let's see

his next move

I lo-

What?

Your 'dupatta' might

get caught in the wheel

'She isn't even wearing

a salwar and kameez'

You usually wear a 'dupatta', right?

That's why I thought

I should caution yo-

Thanks

For what?

You are drooling all over

Kindly wipe yourself!

What happened?

Did you tell her?

No, she's shy

to talk in public

She is shy?

What did she give you?

I have many kerchiefs like this

- Did you tell her or not?

- How could I?

When I see her,

I get tongue-tied

Is this kerchief your way

of showing your guts?

Heights of love, huh?

- What, Pugazh?

- Tell me, Mudaliar

Where's your councilor friend?

Missing for the past 10 days

Tell me what you want

No street lights

for the past 1 week

I want to inform him

but he's nowhere to be seen

If you call the Electricity board

they will send one of their men

Why do you need

the councilor?

Of course I called them

And I also went in person

They are least bit bothered

I'll check and get back

Yesterday some of our girls

came to the temple

Some son of a gun

made a pass at them

Why are you looking

at me like that?

I was with you in the shop

whole of yesterday

Okay, Mudaliar

I'll ask Venkat to meet you

Pugazh, come here

What, bro?

They dug the sewage

and left it open

If I complain they give

some lame excuses

Water is stagnant here

for the past 1 week

Ask Venkat to check this out

Okay, I'll let him know

We all voted for him

because you vouched for him

How can he be

so irresponsible now?

We believed you and Pugazh

and voted for Venkat

- You took money and voted

- Where do we find him?

If you hadn't taken their bribe

anybody can go ask him

What happened, akka?

They are lining up to get

their daughters married to you!

Where the hell is that Venkat?

Where did he disappear

without even doing this?

Tell him directly

What's the problem?

All the wards in the municipality

are giving free blender and grinder

When we went and asked

they want us to bring the councilor

All other councilors are

collecting the stuff responsibly

Where is Venkat?

We trusted you and voted for him

Where do we go

looking for him?

I'll find him and bring him

If he doesn't show up by tomorrow,

you'll see our other side!

'Pugazh, this is Muthu here'

Tell me, Muthu

'Where's Venkat?

His phone is switched off'

'We haven't had water supply

for the past 4 days'

'This isn't good, Pugazh'

I'll find out and get back

Where did he go?

- Who?

- Venkat

Irresponsible!

Besides pestering me on the road...

...now they've started calling me too

Naturally they'll ask you

You made him win

He's busy with a zillion jobs

He has to collect bribes

from the shops

Collect fees from the cycle stand

and toilets in the bus stand

Das is a bad influence on him

Even if Das uses the restroom,

he takes Venkat along!

- What are you doing here?

- We are just chatting

Do you make fun of

the girls who pass by?

No, sir, we came by to drink tea

Leave now, you can't

hang around here

He's jobless

He'll show off only to us!

- Why are you off-mood?

- Nothing of that sort

One look and its obvious

What happened?

No water in our area

for the past 2 days

Went to the municipality to inquire

But no one responded properly

They told me to go

ask my councilor

So I went to see Venkat

We were just talking

and he suddenly hit me

Where is he now?

To lay proper roads

Rs 80 lakhs has been sanction-

Venkat, come out

How dare you barge in here!

- Come out, I say

- Wait, da

We are discussing

something important

I'll join you soon

You'll discuss whose

pockets get lined to what %

Come out right now

How dare you insult us!

(overlap of angry voices)

Venkat, better step out

Such a big shot

he won't come, huh?

Why are you coming out now?

Go and butter him up

Wait

Making a scene as if

he's in the parliament

I told you I was coming

And you started yelling

I'll come over to your place

and talk to you later

Problem is you aren't showing up

Everybody is hounding me...

...about how you're not doing

your councilor's job properly

He told you about

the water problem and you hit him

Don't judge me

without hearing me out

I was talking to the Commissioner

And he barged in and yelled

So you'll hit him, huh?
