That's no problem, sir

We've foisted a case on him

claiming he sold drugs seized by the cops

We won't be suspected

We have used local thugs to do the job

I'll take care, sir

Basheer, shoot this dog!

That's not fair! Thick as thieves

together, but he gets the blame

What do you get?

The Game Plan

Today is a black day

for our police department

Anti corruption head Mr Kamal Ekambaram

...killed himself at 9:45 A. M

in his office room

Asst. Commissioner

Kamal Ekambaram committed

...suicide due to heavy loss

in cricket- betting

His involvement for the past few years

in cricket betting has come to light now

In the recent Indian Premier League (IPL)

If an assistant commissioner

can be pressurized by bookies

...imagine the plight of ordinary people

We have to wait and see what measures

Central Government will take

A Special squad has been formed to eradicate

betting in cricket by our government

We shall wait and watch who this head

will be and his method of operating

Shall I dance?

Sing my debut song?

With a huge fanatic fan

shall I explore headlong?

Friend with an unusual name

Disciple who spreads my fame

Come, my knave

so brave

Play 'mankatha'

The card game 'in and out'

Our Goddess won't forsake you

No doubt

If you don't pretend

victory you can't befriend?!

Play 'mankatha'

The card game 'in and out'

Our Goddess won't forsake you

No doubt

If you don't pretend

victory you can't befriend?!

Change your mind

Happiness you'll find

Torpedo your trouble

Break all barriers to rubble

Sparks of fire within that toil

Reflexes that rise to boil

Re-define destiny

Shall I defy history?

Provoke me to tease

Touch me to please

Skip over sorrow, here after

Lord, You became my partner

Bump to incite

Be a messenger to ignite

Face with a halo-glow

Word-less shall I show?

Knowledge is power, a God-send

Realize that, my friend

Work with devotion, my dear

Success will be your volunteer

This offshoot of Valluvar's verse

if understood, hurdles are no remorse

Onus is on you

Face this challenge new

Progress

without digress!

Hold on to this flying kite

Seek within you, this find so right

Take my hand in yours so strong

Listen to your inner voice, to you I belong!

Play 'mankatha'

The card game 'in and out'

Our Goddess won't forsake you

No doubt

If you don't pretend

victory you can't befriend?!

Play 'mankatha'

The card game 'in and out'

Our Goddess won't forsake you

No doubt

If you don't pretend

victory you can't befriend?!

Awaken spirits that sleep

Refresh memories to leap

Make your dreams happen

At work, let your focus sharpen

Let your bonds strengthen

Let humility not slacken

Endorse truth as a commander

Be rated as 1st of the world's wonder

The card game 'in and out'

Why didn't you pick up the phone?

What were you doing?

- Tell me

- Haven't you got up?

Worked late last night

Did you drink?

Of course not

I've sworn on you that I won't

A small assignment

You've been suspended for 6 months

What is the assignment, then?

Old case

Are you at home?

I'll be there soon

I should never ever drink again!

Was that your girl friend?

Who is she?

From where did you get her?

Who are you?

Don't be funny

Let me sleep for half an hour more

I swear I don't know you

Who are you?

What?

Did I do anything hanky-panky last night?

Not last night

Only now...

Don't ever drink again!

My girl friend will be here

You have to leave now

You promised to marry me

- When?

- Last night

You went into raptures about every

single feature of mine?!

You forgot all that?

I was too tanked and tipsy

Quick

Lady, here's your shoe

Leave now

Is she more beautiful than me?

Will you drink again?

I didn't mean you

You just leave

Sanjay Ramaswamy, amnesia guy!

He lives upstairs

When did you come?

My bag's inside

Who is she?

She came here by mistake

instead of going up to the next floor

- Didn't seem that way

- Then what?

Looked like she was 'hitting' on you

- Who?

- That girl

She and her dress sense, it didn't look

like she was visiting your neighbor

Are you implying I pushed her

out of here before your arrival?!

Are you suspecting me?

Not you

I don't trust girls

Even if guys are saints,

can't trust these girls!

Where the hell did you keep it?

What are you hunting for?

Me? Nothing

What happened to you?

You are acting so weird

My head is...

Shall I make coffee for you?

Thank you, honey

Dad wants to meet you this Friday

He thinks we are just friends

- What's this?

- You are dead meat!

You promised not to smoke

My friends who came last night

...must have left it here

Cut off your tobacco friends!

- You look irresistible?

- What?

Your hair

Ear

Danglers

These cheeks

Your eyes

I feel like looking at you all day long

Looks like your lips are

asking for something?!

What are they asking?

- What?

- Shall I brush my teeth?

On ourway

From Mumbai?

Does it tally?

Give 5 from the big bag

Chettiyar is on the line

Will you talk to him?

How are you?

Your boys are here

Come this way

Greetings!

I am the officer who has been assigned

to prevent cricket betting

If there is chance of huge cash- flow into India

We learnt that bookies escaped

when being arrested

One escaped, but we nabbed Rs 50 million

You didn't get that information?!

Good news never travels!!

What's next?

Pichumani, stop talking rubbish

Listen to what I'm saying

I am almost there

Why are you hassling me?

Which coach?

I didn't see anything

- What are you doing here?

- I came to drop my friend

This is my friend Prem from Chennai

This is Sona

Long time since we met, Mahat

I'll call you

Sendhil, park the car

Now, tell me

Why did you ask me to come here?

Let's go in and talk

What an awesome bar!

Drinks 'on the house' for me

If so many people drink during the day

how will our country prosper?

Don't antagonize them

They are the reason for your friend's

career-graph sky rocketing

Is that so?

Why did you want me here?

To make me a drunkard like them?!

No, to make you a millionaire

Wait a minute, buddy!

I'm joining a new job from Monday

Are you playing the fool with me?

Sub-inspector sir

One month flew so fast?!

What to do, Mahat?

You know how ourjob is

Who is that noodle-head?

That's Prem

- Where next?

- Theater, dude

Why are you taking so much time?

Sumanth, are you busy?

I'd like to see Chettiyar

He is upstairs

Someone's with him, I think

I need to collect cash from him

Will you get it for me?

Get that ready soon

Sub-inspector Ganesh has come

Come in

This is Sumanth

He's been with me from childhood

Trust-worthy chap

He is Sanjana's friend

How is Suchi?

Ask her to call me

- What?

- Nothing, dad

- What?

- Nothing, sir
