since l went to church.

Please come Ammachi lf you don't come,

l'll get beating

l'll beat you. Hey.

Ammachi Come What is this

-Will you go away?

l'll come only after going to church

Why are you quarelling on the way?

Not allowing me to go to church, son.

Kanmani, Let ammachi go

to church and come.

Till that time we can sit and talk

Come Ammachi.

Son, come here.

Come.

You take her.

Central-TmG

Ammachi, come here

l will come,-You come.

l'll give good punishment.

Why are you keeping me alive?

Can't you take me away.

Do you know what a lot of

beatings l had today?

What wrong l've done? Tell me

You've not done anything wrong,

Kanmani. l Know.

Who is that.

Me. Me Murugan

Om Saravana Bhava.

Why are you making such a lot

of complaints to God?

You are a grown up girl.

lf anyone beats or scold you unnecessarily,

you give them back.

You are a Tamilnadu girl

women. Country's eyes.

Walking tall, sharp looks...

fearless and intelligent, so said

legendary Tamil Poet Bharathi.

Do you know today why did you get beating?

l didn't see ammachi going out.

Not only you are there,

lot of lazy people are there.

Don't they have responsibility?

What? ls it not enough what you got?

Go inside.

You didn't get beating in your

childhood lsn't it.?-What

There'll be pain forthis beating

and other punishments.

l'll understand it only

when you get it back.

Why? Have you any intention

of giving it back?

Why should l give? When you go there,

God will give.

What do you want in this courtyard.

Nothing. l've come for some icecubes,

one of our boys injured his

legs with hammer.

This is not ice factory you go.

lt is not for nothing

lf there is anything you speak loudly

You went to the convent to become a nun.

l was telling, Everyone knows you

came back from nunnery.

Hey ls your blackgram

grinding not yet over?

Tommorow sosachechi will come late.

You get up early and do the work.

Then, today you sleep in Ammatchi's room.

You make her pass urine at 2 am, 4 am.

Otherwise the bed'll be soaked in urine.

l am scared, Kochamma.

She will disturb me.

You are not a child.

Got more health than Ammatchi.

Kochamma!

You do what l tell. lf you want,

keep alarm.

Ammatchi, let me sleep for a while.

Why do you want to sleep?

There is nothing to worry

even if you are not slept.

Do you see me. lt is so many days

since l slept. Come here.

You keep aside that log of Jack tree.- Okay

Getting laundary done?

A lot of clothes like a hill!

You like Tamil or Malayalam, tell me.

Both.

Both? How can we converse in two languages?

Kanmani, why do you work hard

from morning till night?

lt won't be right. ln Tamil or in Malayalam

which one you want?

Tamil is my mothertongue.

Now l speak only Malayalam.

Where is the time?

You got work full time, don't you?

There is a woman for kitchen work.

No one will say or do anything to her.

This bullying is only on you.

Sosachechi got her own house and family.

Who is there for me?

l'll bear if they make me starve or beat.

Will they make you starve?

Sometime.

Why can't you go back to your place?

You can do at least some coolie work.

Will not be someone there?

Oh Nobody there.

l don't rememberthe village even.

God has punished me forthe sins

committed in last birth.

No one to speak a work with love.

Once l cried for mother, they kept

a hot knife on my leg.

The pain is still there.

Don't cry. lf anyone sees this.

Don't cry.

Master, don't you remember Vaithi,

owner of Banian company in Tirupur?

Vaidyanathan! He came for Deepavali

with sweets?

Yes. That dark tall boy.

ln his company a lot of girls

are working on daily wages.

Shall we send this Kanmani there?

Without anyone's knowledge?

lf she stays here they'll kill her.

Or she may commit suicide.

lt is a pity to see her.

Can we save her?

ln this earth there are a

lot of people suffering.

lf we think, can we save them?

We see this in front of our eyes.

She has none to tell her sorrows.

She can't even cry, Master.

Forthat also she will be beaten.

Why do you pay attention to all these?

For us our life.

Even then, humanity's sake.

Nothing. l too thought like that in olden days.

Now l understand that was all wrong.

Poorthing. When l see her pitiable condition...

Don't utter a word about that girl here after.

No. Stopped. l won't speak a word.

Hello. What Gopaletta, Will l forget?

You buy the timber.

No. No. Work here is almost over.

Afterthis l am coming there straight.

Premachandran will certainly come.

Getting all work at the same time.

Oh God! Stop that polishing.

Waned very much.

The work l do should be clean.

lt is enough...you go and...

What work l can give him?

You poke that window. you go...

Manikantanchetta, don't make him do that.

l've kept aside the window

panes which he did yesterday.

No bar is fitting.

lf a college professor go to 1st std and try to teach,

he will write the letters wrongly.

Have you see Uru?

lf you speak about Uru and Beypore,

l'll pierce your neck with chisel.

Kunjootta, for God's sake you do me a favour.

You need not do any work.

Come in the morning and

take rest in the shade.

ln the evening l'll give you the wages.

Brother, l know its meaning.

You want to get me out saying

that l am unfit.

This is your plan.

l won't stand here even for a second.

Preman, l am leaving. Don't stop me.

He is not worried about

his sister and children.

l'll show him who this Kunhoottan Asari is.

Rest of the things afterthat.

l say Good bye to everybody.

lf you want me back,

you should call me now.

lf l go out of this step, you can't get me back.

-You cross the step soon.

God!

Premetta, you tell my mother not

to try for any proposal.

l am ashamed of standing

in front of grooms.

Why are you forcing her,

when she is not intersted in the marriage?

Good. Yourfather had gone.

When l too die while going places selling pots,

who is there for her?

Brokers want money and food.

Forthat they will say some reasons.

Today also one man was brought.

He has squint eye.

What if he has squint eye?

He is a conductor in the Government bus.

lt is a luck-not a driver.

My chechi, it is told,

marriages are made in heaven.

lt is written who is for who.

ln her head also the man's name

will be there. Show me.

See Preman is standing there.

Time is good, son. Come l'll tell you.

l'll get the work. But Preman

should stumpt it at 6.30 am.

l've stopped stumping and checking the plans.

l got this contract,

l promised them you'll come.

Getting contract isn't big deal,

we must finish it on time.

You don't worry.

l'll get people from Beypore.

l may loose face with my brother-in-law.

- Find another carpenter.

He's not trustworthy man.

lf Preman do the stumping, the work'll finish

without any obstacles.

That's all meaningless.

Leave it.This is a matter of my prestige.
