Nice!

'Dear Sara,

'l'm writing a letterfor

the first time in my life.'

'lt's my heart that's in here'

'When l reach school, l see if you

have reached, before anything else!'

'lf lravazhanjippuzha

is meant for the Arabian Sea;

when you confess your love, l

will be able to tell you;

that Sara is meant forAshwin!'

'With love,

Ashwin'

What is it, Mummy?

What is this?

Love letter!

Love letter?

ls it so trivial?

Are we sending you to school

to study or to romance?

That's not my love letter.

Ashwin gave it to me.

Why do you accept letters

from random boys?

And did you tell us about it?

Did you complain to the teacher?

- lt's one-way!

And Daddy has told me that,

l can romance whoever l want to!

Great!

So you both are in this together?

l'm not going to romance anyone.

Only if l find someone like

Daddy, l will romance him.

- What's the matter?.

Papa, it's about that love letter.

Oh! That's all?

Did you hear what she said?

She will romance someone

like you, it seems!

Am l so bad or what?

How come you're doing

some extra make-up?

There's a reason!

'Hey little chicken, come and give us

a song like your cock-a-doodle-doo'

'Hey milkweed, come flying

silently and give us company'

'Dressed up handsomely, drenched

in a rain of smiles, come on Papa'

'Smiling with your white teeth,

shaking your head, come this way'

'Hey little chicken, come and give us

a song like your cock-a-doodle-doo'

'Hey milkweed, come flying

silently and give us company'

'Like Cinderella, l want

to fly high in the skies'

'Twinkle Twinkle

little starry Sara'

'While l am waiting in excitement'

'Come, Papa'

'To fly high, come with me'

'As we flew high, the yellow dove

& the gentle breeze sang along'

'Hey little chicken, come and give us

a song like your cock-a-doodle-doo'

'Hey milkweed, come flying

silently and give us company'

'Dressed up handsomely, drenched

in a rain of smiles, come on Papa'

'Smiling with your white teeth,

shaking your head, come this way'

Greetings to all of you.

The name of my story is,

'Napoleon'

David, l'll miss it.

There's an urgent board meeting.

lt's okay. Nothing much

is happening here.

Everybody is drunk!

What about Sara?

lt'sjust a 5 minute

drive, right?

Pick her up.

l'm the only sober person here.

l have to be here.

She has the key, right?

She will wait there.

The board meeting has been

postponed to tomorrow.

Okay.

What?

What happened?

Dear,

What happened?

- Hello!

Control Room.

Where's Sara?

Where is Sara?

Dear..

Who did this to my child?

David, we have to take

her to the hospital!

Why to the hospital?

You're notjust a mother,

but a doctor too!

Take care of her.

l want her back!

We have to take her to

the hospital, David!

No, Michelle.

We shouldn't!

l don't want herto be celebrated

as a victim by the media & public.

No one has to light

a candle for her.

How would my child face her

friends and relatives?

Take care of my child!

Take care of her!

Do what l say!

There are monsters all around who want

to see disasters happening to others.

She is raped brutally!

We have to take her to the

hospital immediately!

My child has been torn apart!

l know!

l know, David!

Trust me!

l will take care of her.

We have to take her, David!

l'm her mother, David!

lt must be that Narayanan,

the Security guard.

What?

What?

What's the matter?.

A robbery happened in the

flat right above yours.

Anything here?

- No!

Nothing is missing from here.

Sir, cigarettes for you.

Until you sent Narayanan

to buy cigarettes,

the CCTV camera was connected.

Now, there's no connection &

even the hard disk is missing!

David Sir,

l forgot to tell you.

lt was Johnny Sir's

apartment which was robbed.

You sent me to buy

cigarettes, right?

Until then, there

wasn't any problem!

The camera connection is

just forthe sake of it.

Nothing gets recorded.

lt has been faulty for

the past 3 months.

You can leave now.

l'll come there.

You can also leave, Sir.

What?

Mr.David,

you don't look like

someone who smokes.

Since the construction isn't complete,

only 3 floors are occupied.

Downstairs, there's

an advocate & family.

They are on tour for

the past 2 weeks, Sir.

Then, that builder and wife.

His wife is a doctor, Sir.

They reach only around 6-7 PM.

Police!

Police?

You are from the Police?

He is such a freak!

Even freaks can

become policemen.

For that, the Government has

created a CBClD set-up.

Are you showing off, breaking

into a boys' hostel at midnight?

What kind of a

policeman are you?

That's what l'm saying.

From the past few

years in our state,

minor children are

being subjected to rape,

and murdered.

To ensure that POCSO act

is enforced severely,

An undercover movement.

l am a part of it.

- What do you want now?

But there are no cases charged

or arrests made for that.

But, watching child porn is..

Not just illegal,

it's a mental disorder as well.

We track people who

watch it regularly,

and give them counselling.

Such people,

if not advised properly,

can cause trouble for our

department in future.

So you want to catch the one who watches

child porn regularly amongst us, right?

Just to advise him.

Not going to happen, Sir!

There a three vans full

of policemen, outside.

There are 150 boys in this hostel.

Just a whistle; and even we can't guarantee

in what condition you'll be going back.

l haven't spoken even to my

mom so decently, you @#@$!$!!

Mummy is here.

Move away!

Who is it?

lt's me, Jose.

Sathyettan!

Dude,

your lady officer

is quite a chick.

Was she appointed

without any training?

She hasn't withered at all!

- What?

Even with the scorching hot sun,

nothing has withered.

And, how is your new boss?

He is an expert at expletives!

His tongue is filthy,

and fists are deadly!

Who is this Arnold?

This is my new boss.

l'll be right back.

- l'm coming, too.

Just because you're undercover, you

think you can do anything you want?

A dead body is a good omen!

When did you come?

Within half an hour after

the crime was reported.

Didn't you have breakfast?

- Yes, Sir.

Doesn't look like it.

Be a little more energetic!

Has any missing case been

reported in the past 2 days?

No Sir.

Who said so?

l'm telling you that

a case was reported.

As far as l know..

- l didn't ask what you know.

l asked you whether any

case was reported or not!

Why are you confirming

things that you don't know?

She is quite fair & plump.

Must be from a rich family.

Sure!

There will be a case.

Madam, just a minute.

Get lost.

What is this, man?

Was raped, right?

What?

Well, that girl..

She was raped, right?

This is the 5th or 6th one, madam!

Did you find any lead?

Go!

- You screwed it all up!

Get me the memory

card of his camera.

No need, madam!

He is a douche-bag!

Even though he works

for a national daily,

he is a yellow

journalist at heart!

His main job is writing soft
