You're looking dull

What is it, man?

What happened?

What happened, bro?

Tell me what's upset you

You know what will

happen if I file a case?

Do you know how long

you'll spend in jail?

You're well educated

Forget behaving professionally

Can't you be a civilized human?

You barbarian!

Who on earth gave you

admission in a college?

You study in some junk college

and buy yourself a degree

Then land up in a corporate

set up and give us grief!

Do you know what

work culture is?

Have you never

befriended a girl before?

Is this how

you'll compel a girl?

Why are you ruining

our company's name?

You senseless bum!

Which nitwit appointed you

as the manager?

Baldie, don't give me

that blank look!

Whaaat?!

Lost your job?

Why did you

hit my friend?

Why did you hit him?

Whatever it is,

let us talk it over

Stop this right now

So now we go sell

ourselves for money?

That's your wish

Don't think I'll hesitate to hit you

because this is a public place

Be calm, boss

Why are you

provoking him, da?

It wasn't a big deal

when he lost his job

Why is he over reacting

because I lost mine?

You had a job

when I lost mine, no?

Now what do

we fall back on?

How do we manage rent, food,

cigarette, drinks and all that?

On top of it,

now a new refugee

Boss, don't call me a refugee

You and your ego!

Not capable of getting

the next plate of food

Mistakes... problems very much... do you

at least understand why I messed up?

'I don't know why

you mess up, dear'

Is the problem with me then?

Think and tell me

'I thought real hard

but zilch... no problem'

Think about it carefully, Shalu

It's our life matter, understood?

'I thought over it

threadbare, sweet heart'

'I don't know'

Hmph... you're a waste figure

'True, I'm a waste figure'

He's not giving us

balance change, dude

'I don't have change, man'

Who said there's no change?

I will rip him-

Sit... sit down

Wait, he gave me

nuts as change

If anyone says 'change'

once more, I'll kill him

Stop obsessing over it

and feeling bad about it

Last week, a girl

called me 'uncle'

As if I felt bad?!

Whacko!!

Oh my God!

'Honey, we are dead now'

'Let's leave right now'

'Aiyo!'

Did you get my beer

bottle to hit with?

Don't think

you are a hero!

You dare touch our friend?

What's all this sound?

Your guy is ruining

our peace here

Just shut up and drink

You have the gall to come to our area

and play judge, we'll rip you to pieces!

(General commotion)

"You've been... oh my dear boozer

(st)ripped off your trouser!"

"Pulled into a vortex pointless

Hey buddy... you're pant-less!"

What, boss? You don't announce

your arrival with sirens anymore?

Wait for me

Over here

Look here!

Get in... quickly

Sir, thanks a lot

In all fairness

I should be thanking you

If we don't even do this

for each other, then what, sir?

It's 9:
50 p.m, they'll close down

the liquor shops, let's zip-zap-zoom!

Boss, I've been wanting to ask you

something for a real long time

Is this your own house?

That's a really tough question

There are a lot of legal problems

Sir, no problem

Don't strain yourself

What, sir?

You run a business?

For a while

I was smuggling

Scent, shoes, laptops

- 'Baby...!'

- Shut up

It got really boring

There was no

job satisfaction

'Baby! Don't trust them... problem'

If you keep working for money

boredom hits you, no?

Do you get

what I'm saying?

'Honey! Don't blabber

to these new guys!'

I told you to shut up

Didn't you hear me?

Do you want me

to spank you?

A woman should

know her place!

Sir? Whom are you talking to?

'You're a total waste piece, man'

I'll murder you

Don't say another word!

'You'll never learn even

if you burn your hands!'

'Go to hell'

Female trouble

Sir, who are you talking to?

Sorry, you guys

don't know her, no?

We have no clue

She's a girl called Shalu

Only I can see her

She's like my girl-friend

She's the only one

I can bare my soul to!

'My fate! I got stuck with

a crazy man like this'

No fears, man

Shalu is a very decent girl

Look at that drawing

She's Shalu

She's really hot, boss

This is a mental disorder, sir

I think you should

consult a doctor

'I'll smash your face

black and blue!'

Wait... cool

Calm down, babe

'Who wants your

random advice?'

'Get out of here, da'

You asked me to

consult a doctor, no?

That's why

she got a little angry

She's slightly

hyper-emotional

'My fate to listen

to these idiots!'

I've already done all that

He gave me tablets

and I took them

But my life was

boring without Shalu

I stopped the medicine

I 'liking it' basically

How did you get

this disease?

What should I do

to get it, boss?!

Shut up!

Sir, we're leaving

I'm late for work

Sir told me

you lost your job?

Leave it, da

He's one of us

You're all 3 in 'no-job'

position right now, no?

'Wretched wasted

mouth-to-feed!'

Are you looking

for some other work?

No, sir... I'm trying

for another job

What about you both?

As if we are that old, sir

Why work already?

Are you also free

and jobless now, sir?

If I tell you what I do,

you'll think I'm insane

No way!

Of course we won't

I'll tell you anyway

I don't know why, but I feel

like sharing it with you guys

My job is...

...what you might

call 'kidnapping'

In Tamil, we call it

'aal kadaththal' (abducting)

All this is your kidnapping

victims list, sir?

No... no, this is my study

of how not to kidnap!

What I've done will not

feature in the newspaper

Only if you've messed it up

will it become headlines

Sir, we're late now

We have to leave

Thanks for the drinks

- Come... come, da

- 'Go... go, good riddance!'

- Are you scared?

- No... not at all

Come, da

Hey! I paid for your drinks?

Now I'll pay, you must eat

If you call this 'idly', even

'chutney' won't believe it, da

Shall I ask for the bill?

Okay, sir

We're done

You sit in the car

I'll pay the bill and join you

Do you know how long it's been

since I sat in the driver's seat?!

Where did that man go?

Shall we just take

the car and leave?

Shut up

Let me go!

Silence!

Don't scream

Let me go!!

Start the car

Sir... sir, what are you doing?

Let me go, da

Police are after us

Start the car, da!

Police... awwww!

Start... go... go... go

- What the heck is happening?

- What do we do now?

I don't know

Pull along the kerb here

Let's run for our life

'Rascal! My guy has breathlessly

carried her with great difficulty'

'And you're ruining it!'

They can't hear

what you're saying, silly!

Why is he

on his own trip?

'Then you talk, buffalo!'

Turn right... right... right

- I'm petrified

- Just go somewhere

For heaven's sake, keep quiet

- Kesavan, just listen to me

- Quiet... quiet, please

Shut up... shut up

- 'Ask her for her phone'

- Give me your phone

Let go of her hand, da

Give me the phone!

- 'Call her dad'

- What's your dad's name?

Take out her

handkerchief

It's saved as 'dad'

I won't scream

Please don't stuff that stinky
