I don't know.

He was fine.

- This one.

- Yes.

Look at her trying to impress him.

Sir...

Sir...

Come in Pandi.

Just come in.

Sir, I need your help

to fill this form.

Is it for a loan from the bank?

No sir.

I want to put my son

in a private school.

I went to the school

premises last night itself.

There was a lengthy queue

today early morning.

I came straight to you after

getting the admission form.

Here.

This is a well reputed school.

Nice.

The form itself is

worth 500 bucks.

Not surprising.

Collect it tomorrow.

If you can fill it now,

I'll submit it right away.

It needs an attestation.

What was that?

I need to get an authorized sign.

I'll get it ready.

You may collect it tomorrow.

Ok sir. See you.

Jeeva.

Greetings.

Yes!

If you have filled the form,

please hand it over at the office.

I'm not here for that.

Can you read out what's on

the 7th page of this form?

- Sit down.

- Its ok.

Its the terms and conditions.

It's fine that you have put

the terms and condition.

But this form is

worth 500 bucks.

You have mentioned that its non

refundable in the 1st page.

But if you had mentioned the criteria

to buy it in the same page then...

this person wouldn't have spent

his money unnecessarily.

We can't check the criteria

with each and everyone.

You don't have to check

everyone who buys the form.

You very well know...

whether the person buying

it is educated or not.

You could just have

asked him one question.

Whether the form was for him.

If you had explained,

he would have known it right...

...there that his son won't

get an admission here.

He could have that 500 bucks.

Today you are the scapegoat!

You are going to fill in only 50 seats...

but you have distributed

7000+ forms.

Even the literate...

feels that their kids will get the best

education here and in that hope...

wait in queue for hours

to buy your school forms.

I don't want to talk

much about them.

But the illiterates?

They don't know your rules.

They regret that

they are uneducated...

and hope to make their

children study well.

They sacrifice one of their job and...

wait in this lengthy

queue and buy this form.

In order to earn that 500 bucks...

he must wake up early and go to

at least 50 houses selling milk.

He earns that money with great difficulty

but you just take it away easily.

You say education is a must yet

you make business out of it.

To propel your business...

do not make the

downtrodden people...

believe that they don't

deserve education...

...and only the rich deserves it.

Come on Jeeva.

Why is the police coming here?

Officer is calling you.

For what?

To sponsor him a tea.

Shall I give some money?

- Come on.

- I don't have change.

Don't be afraid.

- Cops are not so powerful.

- I'm scared.

I'll handle this.

Come on.

Why do you look nervous?

Well, I am afraid of the police.

What?

I am no way linked to them.

I'll slap you!

I will decide that!

Did you guys witness the murder

that happened here 2 days ago?

People kill each other.

Why unnecessarily get involved?

We didn't witness.

Aren't you guys

from this locality?

7th street.

Usually you guys meet up

in this tea shop right?

Then where were you

the other day?

We were here

but left early.

Early?

Who keeps a check on time?

Other day we had some work we left.

Today we are free so we are still here.

Fine.

Assemble at the Saidapet

court tomorrow morning.

But why sir?

You didn't witness

the murder right?

Are you sure?

Then come to the court

tomorrow morning.

Our men will be there.

Just be a witness and say

they were the murderers.

No way sir.

- Pitchai.

- Sir?

Put them in the jeep.

But why sir?

Weren't you guys smoking

on the streets?

Smoking is an offense in a public place.

Take them in.

- Sir, why are you unnecessarily...

- Excuse me sir!

- Who are you?

- Press.

- What?

- Press.

- Fine. I shall.

- Sir!

How dare you?

I now arrest for this!

Sir! Sir, they are college students.

It'll become an issue.

Also, she is from the press

Leave them sir.

Hope you know who

committed the murder.

He has said that his name

shouldn't appear in the news.

For that we need guys from this

locality, that too college guys...

who can give witness! Only then

the case will be compromised.

If we take weak witness, then

the case will keep prolonging.

Take them in.

Sir, I'll arrange you the witnesses.

Come with me.

You are from this locality right?

I'll catch you someday!

Leave now!

These both will never change!

It only happens in this

house and no where else.

Dad!

Brother is here.

So what? Let him come.

When dad and son are at home...

all hell breaks lose on me.

He will refuse.

Then his dad will yell at him.

M.E?

What's the hurry?

At Coimbatore?

You will go right?

Sure!

He agreed right?

Now watch your mom follow him

with the coffee that has gone cold!

How did you do that?

- I know it!

- You are great dad!

Go tell him the truth now.

He won't listen to you later.

When did I lie?

You agreed to go to Coimbatore

for your higher studies.

I am going to Coimbatore for sure.

Are you going to leave

me and your friends?

Your question is justified.

In fact the truth is, it is

hard to leave you guys

But more than that

I'll be away from dad!

I am planning to have a peaceful

time for the next 2 years.

Looks like you won't allow me.

I brought you the coffee even after

it has gone cold. I need this!

Both you and your

dad are jobless!

- Give me the coffee.

- I am gonna throw it away.

Now, where is Danny?

Brother, how are you?

What are you doing here?

Here to meet a friend.

So what about your son's

school admission?

I put him in a school

recommended by your dad.

It's a nice school and even

the fee is reasonable.

Awesome.

- I need to attend this.

- Fine, I'll leave.

Ok.

Hello?

Look at his fate.

Any relatives of

Mr. Vardharajan?

- Give it to me.

- Here sir.

Greetings sir.

Are his relatives here?

That's him.

Sir...

Who are you to him?

His neighbor.

Was he an orphan?

No sir.

He has a daughter.

Only he and his daughter.

I know for the past 15 years.

Forget that.

Will his daughter

be able to sign...

or has she expired too?

Why would you talk like that?

She is already depressed.

Have some humanity.

If I gotta be polite

to everybody then...

I can't attend more

than 2 cases per day.

Give me an answer.

Will she sign the papers or not?

I'll sign it sir.

I am school teacher.

I'll face if anything

comes up regarding this.

Look at that.

Are you that big a man?

- What's the issue dad?

- Nothing.

There you go!

Tell him and he'll solve everything.

I shall furnish even my school details.

I'll sign the papers.

Fine. You say that you

are his neighbor.

Sign it.

- You.

- Sir...

- Get his signature.

- Ok sir.

- You better have some respect for him!

- Jeeva!

What?

- What do you mean?

- Nothing sir.

Shall I fall on his feet

before getting his sign?
