Udayananu Tharam Page #15

How do we begin?

All the artists have been waiting

since 8 o'clock with make-up.

How can we without

the super star?

Vijay Varkala who went looking

for him too hasn't returned yet.

Oh God!

Don't we have another

4-5 scenes to complete!

Baby Kuttan, please go

over and make him..

...understand that if we delay anymore

everything will go haywire.

Sir! I waited for a long time.

Then I called the room.

There was no response.

Then I inquired

at the reception.

They said that he

left last night.

He has written this letter

to be given to you.

Egoist!-

'No one is big enough to play

games with Super stars!'

'My name will remain at least by

virtue of the movies that I have acted in.'

'But you! You will die a death

of hell for not being..

...able to release your very first movie and

will not attain any fame or recognition.'

'Good bye, Udhayabanu,

good bye!'

There is no point in wasting

time thinking about it.

If I knew where he is

I will go and meet him.

I'll fall at his feet.

There is no way out.

I will not allow that! Even

if it means that I will..

...be on the streets I will not allow you

to plead to a rascal like him.

What else can we do?

Look who it is?

I want to tell him something.

Let us all sit in Sasi's room.

The shooting is over.

We are leaving.

She asked if she could see you.

I'll come. I'll come now.

Have you come to inform

me about your wedding?

Or have you come to seek comfort

by seeing me totally ruined?

The movie has wound up.

I am also going back

foregoing my dreams..

...and desires of many

years midway.

Don't worry.

I will make arrangements for

divorce at the earliest.

I didn't send brother Dinesh.

I couldn't bear it when you

put away all your desires..

...of making movies and

working at a hotel.

It happened because of me.

Did you think it was because

I don't love you?

Who else do I have in this

world to love but you?

Come Udhaya. Did

you get any idea?

I have something to

explain in detail.

I have re-written the story.

Don't be worried.

I think it is better than

the earlier movie.

We have to release this

movie even if an actor..

Kumar was dead.

When that thought crossed

my mind I got this idea.

There is one shot and three sequences

where we can't do without him.

We shall shoot them with him.

One is a shot where

Rafiq beats him.

Then the scene where he comes

to the flat to see Devi.

Then Devi jumps down.

After that the scene where

the police arrest him.

We had put away those scenes

because he refused them.

Then he becomes psychic

out of fear.

How will get him to do all this?

I tried to send many people

to talk him into it. But..

Don't I know that it won't

work with his consent?

How then? - I have prepared

the plan for it.

We will need a huge

infrastructure to achieve it.

Minimum four cameras. Facility

to light up a whole floor.

Udhaya, I will do

all that you want.

But will we be able to release

the movie on 19th?

Don't ask me for an

assurance like that.

He has come here to

shoot for a movie.

If things go the way

I have planned..

We will try our best.

And thus we lost the

last hope we had.

The boat jetty that was expected

to be a super hit has broken.

No one calls. And no

one asks for dates.

I fear that I will have to

go to the streets again.

Sacks full of Parotta and Papad

meant for export are lying in Kozhikode.

If this continues we just

might have to live the..

...rest of our lives eating

those Parottas and Papads.

Rajappan is not the kind

to give up so easily.

I also know to make a movie

directed, produced and acted by me.

Of all the things you just said,

forget about directing.

It is something only

intelligent people can do.

And producing?

Even if one movie of your

flopped you have..

...only enough wealth

to make you bankrupt.

You have lost the rest in your

business and waywardness.

God! Let it be some producer.

Hello! This is super star

Saroj Kumar here.

Sir, this is actress

Gayatri calling.

Gayatri! Where are

you calling from?

I am calling from my flat.

I wanted to tell you

something important.

Do you know Madhumati who

was Udhaya Sir's wife?

She is with me now.

She wants to discuss

something with you.

Could you come over

here please? - Sure.

I don't think that you will

change because of what I..

...do or that you will learn

some lessons in life.

But it is a must for

the peace of my mind.

Cut it.

When Rajappa arrives give him..

...a tight slap across his face!

Set the camera there.

- OK.

Udhaya, are you sure

he will come?

He has assured Gayatri

that he will come.

Camera 1?

- Yes, Sir.

Camera 2?

- Sir? - Are you ready?

Start when I tell you. OK? Get ready.

- OK, sir.

Rafiq, if he doesn't stop on

being called catch hold..

...of him and pull him such that

he faces the camera and hit him.

He will not come dressed.

That is all right.

We should be able to shoot

his face with the same dress.

Rafiq!

Rajappa?

- What are you doing here?

What are you doing here?

- I am going to see a friend.

Good. You won't act in

Udhaya's film, is it?

Cut it. Anbazhagan. He is here.

Start the camera when he knocks

at the door of the flat.

OK?

- OK.

What about the dialogues

between Gayatri and Rajappa?

Dialogues are not a problem.

What ever he says we will

make someone with the..

...same voice as his

to dub the dialogues.

We only need to get his

reactions correct.

Yes?

- He has knocked at the door.

OK. Gayatri, open the door.

Hello.

- Please come in, Sir.

Please sit down, Sir.

- Thank you.

Before Madhumati arrives I have

a few things to tell you.

What is it?

- Two weeks ago my husband died.

You may not have noticed

it in the papers.

Oh my God! Your husband died?

I didn't even know that

you were married.

Many people don't know.

It was a suicide.

His name was Balakrishnan.

He was a financier.

Everything was smooth

for sometime.

Someone played truant

from behind.

All the depositors asked him

for money at the same time.

Camera one and two get ready.

- That is why.

Net, junior artist,

everything get ready.

I have informed

the police that..

...someone is trying to harm me.

My Bala loved me so much.

You are a lowly creature!

I don't want this world

where you live.

I don't want this

world without Bala.

This dialogue..

Gayatri, I think you

have got it wrong.

I am super star Saroj.

Hey!

Yes!

We got it!

Steady cam!

Camera 3 and 4 police!

Everything, get ready.

We are ready.

Security! Please close

the gate. Cut it.

OK move!

Camera 3 and 4.

Bikes.

Get down!

- What?

I am innocent!

I have not done anything.

She called me there.

Cut it!

- Great Udhaya.

There is a problem.

Rajappa in the custody

of our dummy police.

If Pachalam Bhasi

gives a complaint..

...to the real police then

we will be in trouble.

So we must take the

shots where he..

...becomes psychic as

soon as possible.

Tell me what is the plan?
