'Awesome'
'Good times around the corner'
'Auspicious days will favor'
'Alandur
Trichy'
'A new innings and fresh beginnings'
'Joys to bloom anew
All your dreams will come true'
'This house will soon revel
fame and fortune as well'
'Lo and behold!
Auspicious events will unfold'
Near a temple and a lake...
...like Goddess Lakshmi, a spouse
for the prince of this house
The perfect bride
In case she doesn't show up...
...bad events should follow
So says our own Delphi, Jakkamma
'A canopy should be raised
in front of this house'
Food should be served
to one and all
'Whether the future holds
good or bad for the family...'
'...rests in the hands of
the lady of this house'
'It is the oracle of Jakkamma'
'Happy days are round the corner'
Aravalli akka, what's news?
Last night I believe
our local soothsayer...
...predicted good events will follow
or else misfortune will fall upon you?
Were you eavesdropping?
As if that's my occupation
all the time!
I come from a better
lineage than that
The wind just carried
his words into my ears!
Good event means a wedding
What does he mean by misfortune?
My funeral!
Why are you cursing yourself?
As if it can't be your son
Kuzhandhai's wedding?
I know of a girl
in a 'cow dung' family
Why don't we finalize
that alliance for your son?
I want to ask our astrologer
if wedding bells will ring for him
- Good idea
- See you
'Please come and sit here'
- Give me the horoscope
- Greetings, sir
5th house is occupied
by sun, moon and venus
7th and 8th houses
[mutters under his breath]
Horoscope is like Lord Krishna's!
You can find him
amidst girls always
No, it's the opposite
Girls make a beeline to him!
Tomato...tomato...tomato...!
'We have arranged item-wise'
'Please come and buy our tomatoes'
Don't you have Bangalore tomato?
We don't buy from a state
which denies water to us
Buy fresh ones
from Tamil Nadu
Don't start by
getting into trouble
Come, madam
Tomato...toma-
Tomato...tomato!
Pure and fresh
red tomatoes
Tomatoes, dear
Full of cheer!
Tomato...tomato
He has to be on a job
24x7x366!
At the same time
he won't stick to the same job
True, he gets bored easily
'Fish...fish...fish!'
Cat fish, Butter fish
Indian spiny loach
'Please come
ATM also available'
'Fish...fish...fish'
Cat fish
Indian spiny loach
Fish...fish...!
1st cater to the men's needs
They've been waiting for too long
'They won't look at me!'
I know why your brain
is working this way!
You guessed
So do it
He has business acumen
to even sell stale stuff
You bet! In case
he's unable to sell the fish-
Dried fish...dried fish!
'Dried fishes of
all sizes and shapes'
Dried anchovy, dried ribbon fish,
dried tilapia fish
So smooth, you won't feel the fish,
beer, rice or your life slip by!
You can even use it as dowry
With guarantee and warranty
How can you offer
warranty for dead fish?
Business tactics
Knowledge?
He can't read and
I can't tell the time
Bro, 1 tea
With one vada
Don't lean on me, you mop-head!
'As if he's Shakespeare
Pretending to read!'
He'll read newspapers in Telugu,
Malayalam and Hindi word to word
Telugu, Sachin-
Bro, finished seeing the photos?
No cool news to relax
or hot news to drool!
You must read only
Malayalam news
You read so many papers daily
On the whole what is the news?
The same news is expressed
by all of them creatively
No variety, huh?
8 hours ago...
...what we read in Facebook,
Twitter, WhatsApp is refurbished
Newspapers were the
source of news for us
But now we feed news to the Press!
Where is the country?
- He beats uncle Scrooge hollow!
- Bang on!
Won't even extend his hand to anyone
Bro, how are you?
I don't shake hands
I'll lose my power!
- How is business?
- You're bad at this, get lost
Not only bold
but also brave
I'm worse than hero Kamal Haasan!
- What do you mean?
- In bravery!
If I lose a nail,
you'll lose your arm
His stars will make his tongue run
He'll spin yarns too
He has been going in circles
Around the same girl
for the past 3 years
(humming a film song)
Stop, Gayathri
Hi
- Wait
- Why are you hounding me?
I don't know why I'm in love with you
But I love you
I hate seeing your face
Please go away
Just a minute
You hate the sight of me
But don't find me repulsive, right?
My folks find me offensive quite often
I turn a deaf ear to even that!
Go...go...off you go!
What about his wedding?
Generally people face problems
only after marriage
But for him...
...marriage is the vortex
of his problems!
Will any untoward incident
happen because of this?
Yes
Plenty!
He has to be on his guard
He is likely to get married
only for the next 3 months
He crosses that, he won't
marry for another 6 years
So he has to get married
within 3 months?
'Story-Screenplay-Direction
Vallikanth'
1 minute, wait, Gayathri
[humming]
Gayathri, please stop
- Gayathri
- Yes
- Someone is following her
- Yes
How many times to tell these boys
Gayathri, wait
Smart Alec, stop!
How long have you
been hounding her?
3 months
I've been in love and
following her for 3 years
I saw her on January 1st
On 14th wished her
'Happy Pongal' and smiled
She walked away silently
and next day wished me
That was my friend's birthday
On April Fool's day she claimed
she had never loved me
My friend Omagundam chided me
and told me to ditch her
- I broke up
- With me, not her!
Breaking up with your best friend
is the worst thing to go through
The day I apologized to him...
...was Telugu New year's day!
Told her I'll never
trouble her again
1 week...!
I couldn't take it
Though I went in so easily
I couldn't come out
- Were you locked in?
- On April 14th I met her again
She was mad at me, I said,
'Be angry, but don't hate me'
- He praised my dialogs
- Me, huh?
After that, Labor's day,
Ramzan, Independence day
- Lord Krishna's birthday
- Ganesha's birthday!
All the festivals in our calendar
He greeted his girl
even for your grandma's funeral!
Why make him babble?
Even Diwali, Milad un-Nabi,
and Christmas-
The festival of lights in Tiruvannamalai
He goes quite often
Even on Children's day
I am running behind her like a kid
So she is my girl
Looking at her, ogling,
spying on her, drooling
...making a pass, honking
Don't try any of these with her
- That's my job
- We are jobless anyway!
Whose side are you on?
- You
- Then hit him
Hey! Why tell me all this?
How dare you retort!
Why did you hit me?
Buffalo!
Punch him
Get lost
Rascal!
- Like it?
- No
Is that why you stuffed yourself?
Hunger knows no taste
- Did you see my horoscope?
- Yes, I did
You told everyone, if I don't
marry within 3 months
...I won't get married
for the next 6 years?
Yes, I said so
You should've told me first
Now I've wasted 6 days
Only 2 months
and 24 days left
Why ruin my life, ma?
You were following a girl!
