Okay, annachi

I'll take leave, annachi

Selva

Good morning, annachi

Selva, the boat Peter rents from me

is moored in the dock, under repair

Did you check it?

Will the engine run?

The engine needs to be repaired

though I can start it

It can stop half way

if we leave it like this

It's risky, annachi

God knows what the hell

Peter did with it

Okay, repair it, go

Okay, annachi

I have an important errand to run

Can I service the boat post lunch?

Alright, you can go now

Thank you, annachi

Hey! What's next?

Aren't you Peter the tiger?

'All the tigers look the same'

'Hope I didn't hit

the wrong man'

Hey! Give me a cigarette

Play Superstar's song

Where are you going?

Annachi asked Murugesh to

go to Doss's farmhouse

I'm just going to pick up someone

Who is it?

Leave it, no?

Don't cross examine!

You expect me to

stand here till then?

No, annachi asked me

to do this by myself

Look at that!

My assistant's 1st job

Shouldn't I see it in person?

- Listen to me

- Hey, get inside

Hey! What are you doing?

Go away...go away

I said go away

What are you gawking at?

Rascals...!

- Richie

- Hey...!

Tie up Peter and

take him to our boat

- I'll come over

- Okay...okay

I'll clobber you!

Asked you to hold it

Get lost!

So Murugesh...?

1st assignment, huh?

Are you nervous?

Don't be scared

I'll do it myself

Tell annachi you finished the job

Everything is happening

differently today, eh?

The car cleaner is now driving the car

You don't even know to stab or shoot

But annachi has assigned it to you

Radha akka who always

has a long face-

'She seemed happy today, right?'

What are you hiding from me?

Er...not hiding

Annachi asked me

to carry this out

Started dealing with Isaac annachi

directly these days?

Not like that

I believe Raghu is back in town

He is settling down

with his mother in Dubai

So annachi told me

he has a bag in his custody

He asked me to fetch him

along with the bag

If you find out, you'll harbor

grudges from your past

And think it is payback time

Annachi assigned it to me

Start the vehicle

Where are we going?

To meet an old friend!

'7 stones'

Hello, can I talk to Rafiq bhai?

This is Raghu from India

Please ask him to

call me in this number

- Doss, Raghu here

- 'Tell me'

Can you send the car

in half an hour?

'Okay, Raghu'

Hold...1 minute

Did you squeal to anyone

about my return?

'I didn't even utter a single word

What happened?'

Someone is at the door

Until I call you, I don't want

your car or any crap!

Listen, if Raghu is armed...

'Why I'm asking is-'

'Your 1st assignment

I shall give you'

Go...go

Ladies and gentlemen

Your attention please

Like the Cuban kid always said

Here we meet once again

'You may ask who that Cuban kid is?'

'Behind that...'

'...is an interesting story'

About 2 young boys

One boy came from Cuba

The other is a boy from Madurai

Don't worry

I will take care

Automatic pistol

Okay

Er...what was I saying, huh?

Here, catch it

Hey Murugesh

Chill, I say

He's one of us

So anyway

These 2 boys

What can we name them?

Okay

Dash and Dash-dash

Every morning the boys will come

to the school canteen to eat

But what Dash will do is...

...smile at Dash-dash, pass a comment

in Spanish and go away

Poor Dash-dash!

Dash-dash never understood

what Dash was telling him

This was a daily routine in their canteen

Dash-dash was very patient

and tolerated it

It continued...continued

and continued

How long can a person be tolerant?

One day Dash-dash made

a lightning fast move

He grabbed Dash, pushed him down

and punched him on his face ruthlessly

Bang bang bang!

His nose broke and blood oozed

like tomato ketchup!

Both these boys were

taken to the warden

'Dash-dash complained'

Accusing Dash of scolding him

in a language he didn't understand

Then warden questioned Dash

'What was your cussword?' he asked

In front of everyone...

...he uttered the same

cuss word again!

That too in front of the Principal

Sir, am I narrating the story right?

Are you here to check

if I got the story right?

Go in and look

for the bag, nitwit!

Hey!

Concentrate

This is the most important

point in the story

The warden called the professor

And enquired what Dash said

Daily our Dash looked

at our Dash-dash

In his language had said

'Good morning and

here we meet once again'

This was the crux of his 'cussword'

Some kind of Cuban tradition

Once they understood this

they became inseparable friends

That is not my point

Think about it for a second

When Dash was getting beaten up...

...what thoughts would

have flashed in his mind?

Just because he laughed

and was friendly...

...he must have thought

'why is Dash-dash bashing me?'

'He must have been confused, right?'

Like you!

You have a bag

Where is it?

I don't have anything

You have it

Even if you don't

return it on your own...

...I'll take it myself

Along with it

I'll take your life also

I'm telling you

I don't have it

Is that right?

Okay

Self help is the best help!

The moment I lay my hands on it

I will shoot you

Found the bag

Here

Good...!

Now

Shooting time!

Hey Democracy, come here

What happened?

Richie came and

bashed up Peter anna

'Took him away in an auto'

'Beat him to a pulp'

'His lips split and

he was bleeding'

Hey! Where did it happen?

'Market side'

Before I shoot you...

...do you know why

I narrated this long story, huh?

Don't you know?

'Try to think'

'Use your gray cells'

What did I say when I stepped in?

- Your attention please

- Your attention please!

'Right'

Then...?

- What did I say after that?

- We meet once again

We meet once again

Yeah, we meet once again!

After 15 years...

...only now we are

meeting each other, buddy

Richie

Yes, you good-for-nothing fellow

Richie...!

'Richard K Sagayam'

Won't you even meet

your childhood best friend?

I planned to meet you

this evening, but before-

I heard last night

you met your mother

Will you take

only your mother to Dubai?

Won't you take me with you?

Found the bag

- Come, let's go

- No

I've told my mother

I'll come home for lunch

You already saw your mother once

You'll be going

to Dubai together

- Reunion time

- Richie

I have to go

I'll drop you later

He looks even more

stylish than me

We left a job half way through

Let's finish that first

Hey, stop

Junk of a fellow!

'Whatever you find in the sea...'

'...don't you know, you should

give 1/2 to annachi?'

Scream...scream...!

Scream your lungs out

'Are you trying to cheat?'

"Don't hold a grudge, forget everything"

"Shoot the past that has no meaning"

Come, dude

Come in

Now

I want to know

how a tiger will roar

Come on, I say

'What...?'

You are only huffing

and puffing air!

Come on

Roar now

What's this?

If I ask you to roar like a tiger...

...you're mewing like a cat!

Richie...Richie...!

He has a sister who is

dependent on him

Sister sentiments, huh?

Tell me

Where is the bag?
