- But sir... - Please, I'll call you later.

Arivu, Aadhi is the right mentor for you!

- Errr...Sir? - He's cunning, watch out!

He tricked me saying it was "Cauliflower"

Tell me a bit about yourself. what's your ambition?

- Your chair. - What?

Your chair sir.

What's wrong with it? Even you would've aspired for it.

Even I have the same aspirations

I want Saffron to be numero uno always.

And I want to be a prime reason for it.

We'll release a paper ad tomorrow

stating "Vitamin D from SAFFRON"

- Look what happens! -I'm impressed.

Make sure the ad comes out tomorrow.

Sure sir, nice tie!

Sh*t, how did they know about our plans?

I desperately kept this a top secret, to quell them...

Don't know how they found out sir.

This is how we are slipping from the top and losing everything

Do we have a mole set up, in their board of directors?

-Yes -Super sir!

I don't want this project anymore. shut it down!

we have invested a huge sum for it.

if we cancel it now, it will null our complete investment

So should I come second this time too?

This is a matter of my ego. I know how to handle it.

I won't spare them

I need more money to pay our electricity bills.

No amount of money seems to be enough for you mom.

You're corrupt!

She seems to be jolly

Mom, you won't have to work there from next month on.

I'm earning well now.

Ask her to try washing vessels in her spare time,

it'll come handy for her from next month!

You shut up!

He's as such given me 5K less from his first month's salary.

Moron!

It was because of GST!

-Tell me - Where's Kasi bro's entourage going?

It's his birthday today,

so he's off to seek blessings from big boss in Kanchivaram.

He'll be back only tonight.

-Is everybody from the gang going? -Yes.

What are you looking for? Tell me.

Ask our boys to distribute this to every house...

Pass it over there...

Here, read it.

Arivu asked me to give these

I was waiting for this day to come.

Only I know how hard it was,

to restrain my thoughts in spite of launching this radio.

If you believe in my intentions and concern for you people,

then listen attentively.

Government officials visited our slum 3 years ago,

Kasi bro warned us that they were here to out us!

So we fought them and also celebrated Kasi bro

But they weren't here for that,

they were here to register the land in our names.

Hard to believe right?

What you have now... is the copy of the registration order

If it had happened then,

by now we would've got all the basic amenities

like food, ration, water, drainage, road!

we would've gotten easy loans from banks pledging our land

and used it for educating our children, for marriage, house, business

or even used it to save someone's life.

So if we get all these amenities,

Kasi is paranoid that he may lose his foothold among us

and hence thwarted it.

He has created an illusion that we need him for our survival

I've broken free from the shackles and wish the same for you.

we are confined to a whale's back thinking it's an island.

We have to wake up before it swallows us!

Inspite of all this, if someone wants to rat me out to Kasi

I don't care.

I don't want this place to be jinxed anymore.

It's high time we take a call!

We shouldn't let even one more person to transform into a gangster

we have to retrieve other members from him as well

Our kids should be educated, get good jobs

and reach great heights!

If you're ready and believe you need this change

if you want to emerge to light, from darkness

Switch on your lights at midnight!

Enough of putting up with circumstances

It's time to change tides in our favor

I believe you will switch the lights on!

The choicest word in the world is "DEED"

-Who's it? - It's me, one of your fan listeners!

Scared? Thought I was Kasi is it?

-Why aren't you asleep yet? - Asleep?

How can I sleep when such an interesting thing is about to happen?!

My life seems interesting enough for you?

Do you really think they'll switch their lights on for you

at such an odd hour?

I told them to do that to see how much support

I have amidst them!

If they support me, I'll struggle with them...

If not I'll fight for it, alone!

Oh, it's Kasi!

Kasi please, he didn't do it intentionally, Sorry.

You please hide inside.

Did you go on air, in spite of my warning?

Heard it from your mom!

Bro, I have so many things to tell you...

What did you say on the radio, say that first!

- Didn't my mom tell you? -What?

The LIVE relay became a total mess,

and you got so pissed and scolded everyone.

So to make up for it...

I wanted everyone to switch on their lights at midnight,

to surprise you!

That's why I spoke on the radio.

Why would you plan this surprise at the end of my birthday?

It's a clich to blow candles at midnight!

But I wanted to do something different...

and wanted your birthday to end on a bright note.

Thus I came up with the plan!

Sounds good!

What's the time?

3 minutes to go...

I'll slash their throats if they don't switch those lights on!

I myself will update you tomorrow brother!

Kasi is the KING!

This is my friend Bhagya.

Please offer him a job.

Citing him,...

I'll be able to change the mindset of felons in my slums.

Sample marketing?

Today's lesson learnt from you.

Now that you have told me the problem,

Let me talk to Bhagya

You wait outside.

No sir...

- He's very short-tempered - I insist...

Hey Bhagya, mind your words!

What he says is right, I'm very gruff

Incase of any brawls I get violent

I'm not suited for your white-collared job

Look out for someone else!

You are gonna do the same job you did for Kasi

But in the guise of a delivery boy, with a salary

- Okay? - Yes sir

It was a big deal to get him to take this job

Don't worry, it's my responsibility to make him work.

I knew good times were coming,...

right on the night you asked us to switch on the lights.

It was surprising for me as well

Never expected everyone's support

It's a token of respect for your kind heart.

Why else would a totally unrelated girl rally for you here?

Who?

This girl, Mrinalini ...

She said that you're right, and can be trusted,...

and asked us to switch on those lights boldly.

- Hello - Sriram, sir

Tell me

- What's Mrinalini' type? - Damn, she's my cousin man!

- I'm not trying to flirt - Then?

She has helped me by rallying for me in my slum

That's Mrinalini.

It's her misfortune that she's looked upon as mad and peevish!

Then what did she talk like that on TV?

She did the documentary to show those girls in a positive light...

and tried to change the bad perception on them

Which is why she agreed to talk on the show!

But they made her a scapegoat to generate TRPs

She's hurt for trying to do the right thing.

I am also hurt her

Just do me a favor.

These are the phone numbers of 6 girls whom married those idiots

Let's put it on speaker

- Hello! - Weren't you part of the reality show?

That's how we got your husband's number & yours.
