kerchief into my mouth!

Don't panic or be

foolish, just trust me

Hello?

Sir, we've kidnapped

your daughter

Yes, dad, I'm in a car

They've kidnapped me

- Divya... Divya

- 'Don't panic, don't panic'

Don't panic

Don't panic

'We won't lay a finger

on your daughter'

Don't go to the police

Because we aren't criminals

We're doing this

only with a good intention

Son, please don't do

anything to my daughter

- Please...!

- I'm telling you we won't

But you must not do

anything foolish either

Son, what do you want?

I'm an ordinary

bank manager

How can a bank manager

be 'ordinary'?

Son, I'm a timid person

I didn't complain even

when my bike got stolen

Don't be scared

Be calm, please

Keep driving

Take deep breaths

Yes, nicely

Breathe in... real deep

Okay?

Now tell me, how much

do you earn monthly?

Eh? Monthly salary?

Son?

How much is your

monthly income?

Rs 45,000

Do you have 45,000

now in your account?

Because today is

10th of this month

I have, son

If I take 45,000, can you

manage the rest of this month?

Whaaaat?!

Yes, I can, son

Okay, then go to a nearby ATM

Withdraw Rs 45,000 and wait

I'll call you in 15 minutes

- Don't do anything to my daughter

- Aiyo! We won't do a thing to her!

Just withdraw the money

Ask your dad to

be brave, dear

Dad, don't be scared

Please be brave

Okay, sir?

Okay... okay

(Shalu giggles)

Hello?

- Sir, is the money ready?

- Yes, it's ready

Where should I come, son?

Good day, sir

Hand over that cash

Check if it's right, son

No need, I'll go down and

send your daughter up

Okay?

See you, sir

Here, this is for you

to buy something

Here, your share

Sekar, this is for you

This is your share

This is mine

Boss... how, boss?

If you follow these 5 rules,

kidnapping is truly awesome

1st rule, stay clear

of people with power

No power house

If you choose a rich kid,

you'll be in danger

Unnecessary tension for us

2nd rule:
No threats to kill

No unwanted scaring

Because people have watched

enough films not to get fooled

Must not scare them unnecessarily

Rule 3:
Affordable ransom money

Not a penny more

Not a penny less!

Or else they will go to the police

And we are buying trouble

4th rule:
No arms, no harm

No weapons for any reason

Statistics say weapon is the cause

for us to be the corpse

And 5th rule,

most important

If the job gets

goofed up...

...if it's not according to plan,

no shame, just surrender

Heroism... should be zero!

Dai!!

Boss, your spelling for

'kednapping' is itself wrong

Come, dude

Accept you don't understand

Wait... he has just

started himself

No... I complete

These 5 rules cover et al

There's nothing more

to learn beyond this

Boss, when's the next project?

I'll break your teeth... come, da

Hello...?

If you come by 6:00 a.m

tomorrow, we'll all be a team

Otherwise, forget

that meeting

'Honey, how will you cope with

this many insane people?!'

Come out, da

Let's go back!

Are you brainless?

Come with me now

If you go begging just because

you're jobless, you'll get it, huh?

You'll get a job

only if you search

Understand?

You try something too, dude

There are supervisor jobs in Ambattur

for those who've got diplomas... huh?

Try and you'll succeed

- Okay?

- Okay...!

Okay

Aiyo!

"Brother... buddy... bro

Pal... comrade... amigo...!"

"Blood brother... bro"

"Come if you want to

Otherwise just go"

"Come and be naughty

Or else a non-celebrity!"

"No one's compelling you

Don't want to... just go"

"Come... you common soul

Or else... out you roll"

Close the door

Move... move

"When jobless, brain dreams

these cunning schemes!"

"When twiddling our thumb

deception gains momentum"

"Come if you want to

Otherwise nitwit, just go"

"Come and be naughty

Or else a nonentity!"

"Come or go is up to you

Life is how you pursue"

"Choice is completely yours

You're not under duress"

"A kite with holes can't fly at all

Luck won't land at your porch to call"

"A band of 'yes men'meet

and flee in the eye of defeat"

"If you want your job done

plan properly with wisdom"

"I'll wedge the dude who advised me

I'll settle down with a job and: -) happily"

"Lady, tell your son... strictly

Better send him along with me!"

"Come if you want to

Otherwise cheapo, just go"

- Call your father... contact

- Do you want me to call my folks?

Just pull up

Let's drop him off

Rejected!

"Come... you common soul

Or else... stick to your goal"

Hey! Son... hi!

Is this the place?

Yes, this is the place

Dai, why do you

have such a long face?

No reaction for

kidnapping you

Or when we demanded

ransom from your dad

We're scared, right?

'Babe, this kid is

so cute and chubby'

'I adore him

Can't we just keep him?'

What do you want, son?

An ice cream or something?

I'm bored, get me

some magazines?

We've kidnapped him

and he says he's bored!

Dad

My dad's calling

Hello, sir

Yes, it's us

We're here

Where?

Just wait and watch

You'll get caught

by the police very soon

Are you planning

to sneak to them?!

I won't sneak, but I'm just

generally making a statement

Why do you say that?

Hit you!

Poisonous little brat

Come

Go straight and take a left

Your dad is waiting for you

- Here, keep this

- No, thanks

Your life is in your hands

I understand this only now

We should make sure

we don't jinx our good luck

We haven't even started yet

Have you been rejected in many

companies before coming here?

Yes, sir

That's because

they've black listed you

- Black list?

- Yes

You must deal with this legally

with your old company

Or it'll be very difficult for

you to get a job... sorry

It doesn't sound

that sad, man

You're over reacting to this

Shut up, da

Fight in your ex-company

We'll fix it for you

'Love, he's heading our way!'

Count me in too

I'll be part of your team

This won't work for you

You need blind

foolhardiness

And cold blooded

intelligence

'Well said, baby... you rock!'

Shut up

This isn't your cup of tea

Buffalo!

I have all that they have

And even more

- Talk for me, da

- That's okay, dude

But why do you

want to do this?

We're earning now, no?

Wait for a while and see

As if you won't get a job

Boss, I'll tell you

one thing for sure

Before I do something,

I think a 1000 times

But once I've gotten in,

I won't back out

Whose phone is that?

Ring tone sounds new!

Boss, it's from your pocket

'And I just now

complimented you!'

I got that chubby kid's

phone here by mistake

Boss, what do we do now?

Go to the pickup spot

Your phone will be

in the dustbin... pick it up

Hello... hello, sir

Don't hang up on me

Listen to me

I didn't call for the phone

- I called for you

- Are you tracing the call?

Even if you asked me to go to

the police, I wouldn't... trust me

Hello?

Hello?

Sir...?

Tell me, what do you want?

No, I like the way

you dealt with the kidnap

Straight forward, intelligent

without harming others-

Come straight

to the point
