Vikram Vedha (2017)
The cries of Death
touch the skies Nefarious forces lead to inconvincible sufferings King Vikramadhityan was tormented There emerged a strange sorcerer The reason for all this is a vile Demon To vanquish the Demon is the only way forward Shall I tell a story? Hey Kattai, this is the spot...right? Sir... Don't blush...confirmed or what? Sir, I promise...they are inside you know how dangerous it is to follow these people? I have taken a risk for your sake... now take care of me sir Lay low for a couple of days Sure. Thanks sir Mind you! If they aren't inside, then... They are there sir...you go Sir, don't know how many of them are inside... go for it, we can definitely capture them sir! We entering alone may be inadequate sir... only if the guys from forces come... Is it enough for just the bullets to march by... don't they need 'the gun'? Arrive late and on top of that... who is this over enthusiastic specimen? Name? Mr.Antsy pants? He's the newbie; just joined us... Haha... (laughs) Yes sir. My name is Santhanam sir Santhanam sir, are you married? No sir Any girlfriend of sorts... No sir No? Prabakar, our man here has no girlfriend! Why don't you lend him one of your many? That wouldn't work sir Why so? Because they are way too old for him! Look at you bragging about it! Santhanam Sir, have you at least made out with somebody... like not even first base? God forbid... no way sir Not even that? Then shut your trap and go to the back Yes sir Now, what did I say? Shut up and go to... Then go! Velraj Sir, already here? Yes sir What's going on? All inside sir Is that so? Guess, they are pretty smashed sir That's convenient Ansari, tuck your stomach in... How will you chase with this big tummy? Trim it down... Shall we? Boys, all ready? Hey dumb ass newbie, who recommended you for the job? Have the local cops been informed? Yesterday informed, sir Let's see Velraj, this way right? Yes sir Boys, make sure not to get punctured Knock 'em out...Knock 'em dead! Who is it? You would have died! Sir, I will surrender sir You could have dropped your gun and surrendered there only nah? After making me chase you... what the hell surrender? I was too tense to think of that sir... don't shoot me sir! Now, where is Vedha? Really don't know sir Where the hell is Vedha? Sir, I promise...I don't know sir Sir, sir...I'm a family man sir. Please don't shoot me sir! Sir, I will give you anything sir... Give me anything? Like what? Sir, money? How much ever you ask for... Haha (smiles)... who cares? Ok, now tell me a joke Joke, huh? Sir, what will happen if you mute an ant? Haha (nervous laugh)... Don't know sir? If you mute an ant it will become 'mutant' sir.. Is this a 'joke'? It's pathetic Tell me another joke Sir, once upon a time... Simon, why were your hands shivering? Nothing...what happened over there? Put a 'bindhi' to their foreheads... will die like 'married woman' Boys! Mr.Santhanam, don't stamp in the evidence Hey, the guy I shot last was Muni, right? Yes sir. He's the top shooter in Vedha's gang He's got 5murders and 8 assaults to his name He's very adept with the gun Like how he was today? (all laugh) The other one is 'Fat Babu'? Sir, he's been in Vedha's gang for only the past 6mts He's got two attempt murders and a couple of extortion cases on him Who is this? Not like he's some gold fallen in the gutter! Look at him... just another accused! Sir, he's got no weapons on him sir! No weapons? Check thoroughly Yes sir Shit! If the ADGP comes to know, he will dig deep! Hey, didn't we seize some weapons from the Pulianthope encounter? Where are they? In the jeep, sir Go, get it ok sir Boys, come here Move the body a bit... Lets see Position it, favoring the door Move it...Yes sir Hey give me bullets If you hand it this way, only your fingerprints will stick you will go behind bars Prabakar, take two bullets Last time...who took a bullet? Sir, it was me Oh, it was you Then, shall we pierce Prabakar's lovely fat thigh, this time? The local flesh trade thrives on Prabakar... It will be a pity, if the bullet hits a few inches higher? Shut up dude! Sir, my arm? Ok, on my arm. Now come here, come Hey, go and hold his arm... Hello Mr.Lover, hold it tight man! Prabakar ready? Yes sir On 3 ok? Ok sir... 1... (Both scream) Hey, why the hell are you screaming... when I'm the one who's getting shot? Let go of my hand! (all laugh) Is he a leftie or a right hander? Don't know sir Not sure sir... Don't know? Which hand sports a watch? Right... no, on his left hand sir That means? He's a right hander sir Ok boys, listen carefully We entered that way, searching for the goons This guy fired at us first Simon ducked... bullet hit the wall behind Next bullet hit Prabakar's arm We returned fire The goons tried to fire and escape We chased them and in the encounter Fat Babu died Muni ran; I followed He tried shooting at me As self defense, I killed him Clear? Any doubts? No sir Ok. Now, take Prabakar to the clinic Sure sir Santhanam, its your turn next (All laugh) Infact, it will be a bit tough this time First hearing was in September 2011 Sir, that's the reason for the caveat huh...his name is Balaraman sir Is that your new boy friend? Sir, even the other day his wife and daughter came to our office Near Valasarawakkam sir No sir. Its pretty safe only Who? Hey... As if cops are a big deal sir... Go to bath Priya... How long babe? Ours only sir... Wait! Yes sir. I already made the call this noon I asked them to be at court by 8am itself Cheers. Cheers! Yes, I have it sir Sure sir! Shall I take a photo and whats app it to you? Haha (cheeky) Are you checking me out? Hmm. Do you have eyes behind your head as well? This is exactly why I hate cops! I hate lawyers too Look over there. It's been 3months since we came to Chennai You still haven't unpacked your stuff! Okay... Hey, wait... 'First meet' "Yaanji, Yaanji... why do you keep recurring in my heart? Why?" She's a lawyer? Then, this won't work... I too hate 'cops'! "I try to slide and sway; But you just capture me with a glance!" Whiskey large with ice "You grow in my dreams..." Whiskey large with ice "like a moon, when close my eyelids" "I bend over like a question mark when I reminisce about you! Why do I?" "From the depth of my soul, you're my life! You're the only one that matters to me!" "Oh... you are just an extension of who I am..." "Like how I'm just an extension of who you are!" "From the depth of my soul, you're my life! You're the only one that matters to me!" "Oh...you are just an extension of who I am..." "Like how I'm just an extension of who you are!" 'First fight' "Yaanji, Yaaannnn..." You do 'everything' and then gift me?! I feel used "My life was like a regular calendar; just sailing smoothly without any significance..." "You entered like a violent storm; making every day and moment significant! that's magical!" "You're doing something; makes me feel like you" "are the endless boundary of my life and joy!" 'First Night' "you attract me like a magnet and tie down my fury with your gentle love; that's magical!" "How do you do that with your divine form of femininity?!" "I have 1000s of wishes; to walk by your side and" "fulfill them till the eternity of life, itself!" "You and me complete each other!" Shall we hit the bed? Rather hit the sack? "That's what my heart echoes in my ears!" "Yaanji..." "From the depth of my soul, you're my life! You're the only one that matters to me!" "Oh... you are just an extension of who I am" "Like how I'm just an extension of who you are!" "From the depth of my soul, you're my life! You're the only one that matters to me!" "Oh... you are just an extension of who I am Like how I'm just an extension..." Alex, breathe No This is usual He will be okay Sir, You're kidding! No way... Sir, a kid who studies well will do so in any school 1.5 lakhs fee? What on earth are they going to teach at that school? Who cares about academics? All the big wigs kids go to that school! Know something? Even our ADGP's daughter is my son's classmate! The way you speak...looks like you will get your son to fall in love with the girl... And ultimately become one with ADGP's family That's exactly my plan sir... Oh my god! Sir, now a days, school kids are up to all sorts of stuff! Sir! But, look at this one... So, you haven't done anything yet? Not really Sir, but you're there, right? Take him to the lodges a bunch of times Then, you will see him become a man! What say? Wanna join me? Sir, no... He? He will chicken out at the slightest provocation! If only he meets Vedha face to face... he will shit his pants in fear! Hey, have you seen Vedha No sir...haven't seen him Heard of him? Come here 5yrs back...At Vyasarapadi bangle market... There was this deadly Don named Sekar; always shrouded by his men... Vedha managed to kill him! Know how? Jumped straight from the 1st floor with his sickle Chopped the guys head in half! Sir, I have a doubt Atleast, if head is chopped sideways, one can stitch... What do you do when its split in the center? Don't ask. It was a pain at the postmortem...But, we somehow managed! Head center... Hey, follow me Atleast do something useful in the morning. Circle out Fat Babu's and Muni's name Sir, so if you kill in an encounter... you circle out their names? Now, just do what I say What? 2lakhs lost? You bet on Unicorn, right? Hey, just sit down... Pandian, isn't it a bit much to decorate and perform puja for seized vehicles? Sir, it's my new bike... just paid for it! Hey, did you sell off some ancestral property? 149cc, liquid cooled engine dude! Don't know those specifics sir My wife wanted to make sure that she matches my height if she sits pillion... this bike seemed the right fit! Stupid, don't deserve this... Sir, Good morning Morning, morning Now, why the hell is he in uniform? Sir, seems Santhanam doesn't like our unit He wants a transfer to some other unit Hmm...thought as much! Hey, come here fella... Sir, tell me sir Why have one, when you can't 'do'? Sir, invitation... What? Already on your second marriage? Sir, my sister's marriage is fixed Not bad; you finally managed to fix it! Congratulations! What's the groom up to? Sir, he's an engineer sir Oh really? Why so much pride in that? Just kidding...I'll be there Mr.Head Constable, where's SP sir? He's outside sir Hey, you go wipe the shelves Sir Vikram, my man... Your reports and forensics match to a tee Good work Thank you sir Where's Simon? Sir, he's taken his son Alex to the hospital Nothing serious; routine check up only Something's come up sir? Not really. There's a rumor that Vedha visited MKB Nagar to check on Muni's bereaved family How's it possible sir? When our boys are keeping a close watch... Don't know; could be just a rumor Should check with Simon... Sir, let me go and check it out Sure Sir, at the very mention of Vedha's name, people turn mum! Sir, I inquired about the families of the deceased Fat Babu has nobody; Muni has a son His name is 15 and age is Dilip; Sorry, his name is Dilip, aged 15 - Where's he now? - Over there, sir It's the cops guys. Run, run! You're the one who killed my dad, right? So, you have come to apologize? No. Muni deserves to die That true too; he's an a-hole of the first order He used to get drunk everyday and hit me You think you're the only one with such problems? Everybody gets whacked by somebody or the other! Even somebody like you? Belt! Even if I make a tiny mistake, my dad will skin me alive! Dad was a cop, you know... Learnt only one thing from him What's right and what's wrong... Nothing in-between... But, there absolutely nothing to learn from my dad! Hey, hey! Drop the bottle, drop it! Sir! Now, you drop it! You don't need to do this If I got the man who killed my dad alone... And still didn't do anything to him, you know what my people will call me? Hey, let go off me! Sure How is that Pulianthope Jeeva's son Sathish? He's a bit troubled... But don't worry He will turn around soon Take care. Let's go Sir, why was I wrong in pulling out my gun? No sir. He was in full force to stab you He's just a child... wouldn't have stabbed me You should judge if one is a criminal or an innocent, just by looking into one's eyes Wait a minute Hey Simon, what's up? Commissionaire's office only nah? Tell them I'll come Tell them I'm on the way... I will...relax Now, look at this bugger His eyes look like he's a sure fraud He will come and say there's no chain sprocket! Everything is available sir...but for the chain sprocket! The bike is '78 model sir Best option is to change the unit with housing! It will just cost you 2 grand Should we just shoot him down right here? Sir, sir, please sir Even the engine sounds bad sir... duppu, duppu! I want that duppu duppu sound only... now, go find me that sprocket! Ok sir You don't understand a word I said, right? No sir I sleep peacefully after every encounter You know why? No sir Because I know for a fact that I have never killed an innocent You will learn as time goes by Do you even look like cops?! Look at you guys with beards and stuff? Sir, we should just shut down their unit! Sir, please...not that you don't know This unit was started to control the atrocities done by Vedha's gang Just, give it a thought How many murders in this gang war? How many people has Vedha killed in public view?! That doesn't mean you can go killing whoever you spot! What do you want me to do sir? If we file a warrant and arrest him, we won't be able to implicate him on a single case! The only option is to shoot him down if we spot him So, you'll just shoot at sight? Human rights violation! Will the cops answer? Police brutality! The 'encounter operation' headed by Inspector Simon... So what? So what??? There's something called as police procedure, protocol... Are you even aware of such thing? Well aware sir. But, if we were to look at that, there will be 3 dead cops instead of gangsters Does that work for you? The way you guys behave, there's hardly any difference between you and them Hey, hey, Vikram! Sir, it was I who planned this operation It's my name in the press, right? If there's a problem, take action on me! Hey, there isn't enough water in your drink Ice, ice... Oh, just ice? Simon! huh, he's just here when we need him Sir, just look at him sir... He will take the fall for me, he says... Mr.Sacrifice! How many cubes? Two cubes Simon, it was I who lost it Then let him take action on me... What can that bugger do... What can he do? That 'sir' do? Hey, come with me Now what? Just go This side, coconuts That side, bananas And father that side, I have bought 2acres Potato farming... Huh! Other than being a cop, what else do you know? huh? Sir, gimme a break. I have lost all my high! Then, just cock up and do your job! As you say landlord! Good night! Good night... Simon goodnight Goodnight sir Good times dude! Simon, we will never get back those days, right? How I wish it were like old times... unnecessarily embroiled in this heinous job! Hey, what's wrong now? Don't know Vicky. Sometimes I just wish, I could abandon all this and go some place new! What's your problem? How many souls? So many sins... Listen, I will tell you something... 100% guarantee You are going to heaven...and me too! We are the good guys bro! No sins for rowdy's encounter The sins of the father visit the son... Worst logic! How would you know? You sleep tight after a day's work... You know how long its been since me and Anitha slept that way? And that too, when he gets an attack... you wouldn't understand bro It's all because of you... and your sentimental stuff Drinking on the rocks... my head is splitting! You are to be solely blamed Just got some news from Intelligence Vedha, who's been in hiding has finally emerged Heard he's lurking somewhere in MKB Nagar We should grab him before he gets alert! We've got intel that Vedha is hiding out in this part of Vyasarapadi We are going to place our riot control team in these 3 junctions under Velraj, Giri and Santhanam You have to make sure the public doesn't enter beyond this point These three exit points will be monitored by Ansari, Prabakar and Pandian You guys have to make sure the local cops don't cross this point Otherwise our Operation will be compromised Only me and Simon will enter the building Any questions gentleman? Vedha has a lot of clout in that area There's will be a lot of tension during the Operation... even leading to riots! Be alert! all clear? Yes Sir This is only Vedha! You have chased and chopped down a man named Sekar at the Bangle market in full public view! What's your enmity with him? Tell me! Everything is there on the records! Will you answer if I pull your teeth, one at a time? Open your mouth! I've been yelling my guts out and you just keep mum? You think we will be scared of you, just because you have committed a couple of murders? Who do you think you are? We cops look like jokers to you? You don't like people who speak aloud; I know that Listen to me. I'm not like the other cops Just tell me the truth; I'll arrange anything for you Don't you understand? It's not good for you if you just keep mum like this Loosing money is no big deal; but, loosing the prime of your life? Not worth it If you don't open your mouth and answer, I will say you tried to escape and just shoot you down You think you are some bigwig? You just whimsically come and surrender... and then be silent? You think this is your mother in law's place? Do we look like jokers to you? What's he talking about shooting him down? It's already a recorded conversation What else can we do? There's no way he's gonna confess anything! This is why we asked for an encounter order... Ok. Now that he has surrendered, what are you going to say and produce him in court? There's already a lot of pressure! Just make him confess somehow! Strictly no violence! This man is saying no to violence... while this one sits like a silent, sly fox! You dumb ass! One thing is for sure... He's an evil genius! Genius, my ass...don't give unwarranted credit to these criminals Survival instinct! He's surrendered, fearing we will shoot him down if we spot him outside The question is not why he surrendered... Real question is why he came out of hiding! What's his job outside? Can I tell you a story sir? The silence is too deafening, huh? You look really smart when you smile sir But you will look very pathetic if you smile without your front teeth! Don't laugh. Camera is switched off... I'll smash you! Just my arm will swell up a bit... nothing much! Sir, will you treat your guest this way? Vedha no violence sir! Why did you surrender? Just wanted to tell you a story sir My own story sir! Your kind of guys just have one story, right? I was down and out...like a mongrel on the mean streets Did this and that...and grew to be a big man It's that story, right? Wow! How did you do it sir? Did you watch my whole life unfurl in my own eyes? Can I tell you something about yourself? If I give you 10crores today in exchange for you quitting your profession... you will refuse the offer and walk out Only to go home and plot a way to grab the money from me! That's you! The same 10crores, if I give you in exchange for letting me go...Will you let me go sir? You will just send me away and plot to encounter me! That's you, right? Hah, good one! However you see it, we are both one and the same! How will having just a tail make a cat and mouse the same? Sir, the cat has value only till there's rat problem in the house! But this mouse surrendered fearing the cat, right? But, will any mouse voluntarily walk into a trap? That's right. We're not talking about some simple mouse here... It's actually a bandicoot who has murdered 16! You are not such a simple cat yourself sir... A cop cat who has encountered 15! Sir, that last encounter... you killed the guys? OK sir. You are in the lead Killed 18; Killed 16...Convinced? Nah... Criminal! Police... I'm on the right side of line; you on the other OK sir, I accept. I'm the bad guy; you're the good one But to project yourself as a good man, you do need a bad man like me! Now listen to the bad man's story; it will be interesting, enthralling with twists and turns! Listen! 'Gangsta! Gangsta! 13yrs back...' Hello Sir, how are you? Nothing sir. Just a small matter My vehicle is unable to cross Ennore checkpost Yes sir. There's a problem with the SI If only you could do something... Yes sir. There's some stuff in the vehicle... If you can help... Not possible? OK sir, ok. I'll take care Dilli, the bigwigs have refused Dilli, this is your responsibility, right? I gave you this job only for your bro Sangu's name! I need my goods here! Am I responsible? Am I? You doormat! Cheta Cheta, will you just break the phone if there's a problem? How many phones will you break? Shall I get the goods out? Who is this guy? What do you want? Just get lost Go away man...leave! Vedha...Dilli has so much clout, yet couldn't pull it off! Here, our man wants to go to get the goods out! According to them, we're just donkeys to carry load...that's our only fate! You just keep blaming everything on fate like an old maiden... Life won't call and hand you opportunities! If you need something, it's only a crime not to try for it! Which checkpost dude? Hey Dilli, move away man What the hell are you guys doing? Just shut up! Are you aware of who you are dealing with? Don't you dare touch me... this is not for good! Vedha, you will get wasted! If Cheta comes to know, he will slit your wife and children's throats! When I get a wife and child, I will let Cheta know. He can come and slit their throats Listen to me...Stop it! Are you alright? Yeah Why did you hit me now? Police man should feel sympathy for you, right? Come to the station tomorrow and collect the accident report Narrow miss. You could have lost your life! Thank you sir There's stuff in the car. The cops are going to check! We're done for! What's your big plan? Don't stop...Go Hey, hold all four down! Some accident vehicle! Just let go... Cheta! Even after so many years in business, I still can't judge if a man is capable of doing a task! I underestimated you... What's your name son? It's Vedha Cheta It's our first time, so you take it as my gift! Anything to be done in Chennai, I will be your man Gaja, see if it fits you Gimme, give... Vellai, I have bought something that will suit your complexion Dude, what did you get me? Half Boil, of course. There are couple of watches and chappals. Divide it amongst yourself Nothing for you? Special for me Look at him... looks smashing! Wow! You've bought coolers for 1500 bucks? What's up? I'll show you Vedha, the way you're checking out... seems like you are upto something Big? That's what you thought? You know what was going on in my head? If there's anybody around, if the spot is good...If I should pee at the spot? That's all you were thinking? For real? Yeah, just that What I'm thinking, the guy sitting opposite shouldn't know! That's the effect of these glasses! My darling! Some new guy comes along and you give it all to him? You do whatever you feel like... Go on, go! Sangu bro, I won't be this calm always... How dare that Vedha steals my business? He's just a thorn that sprouted after last night's rain! I'll just chop him down one of these days! He's got Cheta on his side. What will you achieve going against him? Keep a low profile for sometime It's simple; just keep playing the way you do... But keep your eyes and ears sharp! If you smell a cop, you report to me or Brother Sangu How will you sense if cops are approaching? Sound of their jeeps Yeah, jeep sound... They will be in boots... yeah, big boots Will hold batons...what else? Khaki uniforms Right they will be in uniform They won't be in uniforms all the time... How will you find out if they come in color dress? They will sport crew cuts Crew cuts in their head Yes. They will have short crew cuts With curved mustaches Clean shaven to a tee Understood kids? What's your name boy? Pulli What will you say if you get caught with stuff in your hand? What are you doing here? Ravi bro called me Even if he called, what happened to your common sense? Come. Lets go. Chandra, you too Hey, wait up! Why are you dragging them away? He's my kid brother you He's your brother? Then he's at the right place? Only if starts from this age, will he be able to uphold your reputation? One slap; your ears won't stop vibrating Don't talk too much. I didn't call him. He walked in voluntarily He was the one who brought this girl as well Ask him You'll recruit anybody? Then why not me? What's the salary? Huh? You want a share as well? Don't disturb my work spot. If there's a problem, ask Brother Sangu! He was the one who suggested kids as they will be active. Why are you creating a big scene? You were the one who told there will be no problem if the cops catch kids, right? Hey cat face, you talk too much. I will... I will, what? Hey, clash at your level dude! What if she hits you? If you work for Cheta, think you're the big guy in the area? I'm the one after Cheta; always! I'll burn your whole block! Oh my god! I'm petrified! I'm scared shitless. See you, alright? Joker! Hey cat face, I'll mark your face one day...get lost Go If I spot you with Ravi another time... Don't cry. I'm telling you not to cry Here, take it I insist. Take it Now, shoot me Common, go for it Won't you save me? Come here... Okay Just a day I'll be back from Pondicherry tomorrow Stay at Chandra's. I've informed her granny Just to school and back, understand? Pulli...Mr.Pulli... Pulli sir? When you're on the streets, does anybody address you as Vedha's brother? No Do they address you as Vignesh? No What do they call you? Pulli Why do they call you that? Since I scored a centum in math That means, Pulli is your identity, right? Yes So, what should you do? Study well - Study really well - Yeah Like the bubble gun your brother bought you? Yes Do you like your brother? A little bit Will you give me a kiss? Yes Then give me one now Pulli, are you ready? Take care Hey Chandra, you're elder than him, right? Yes Then, take good care of your friend Sure Hey, police... Catch, catch! If you get caught by the cops, what will you say? That we just found the stuff on the streets! Shouldn't blabber anything else, ok? Catch, catch... Run! Run, run...run along! Sangu bro, just one pack got left out Ravi, don't get caught with the stuff! Just gives this at Tower block; I'll pay you each 50 bucks Just one bag... No way. Vedha bro told me to keep away from you No big deal. Just one bag. I'll give you a 100 each, please... 100 bucks? Chandra don't. Let's go Run, run. Run along Vedha bro will be furious with you Nobody appreciates a reformed man? Come. Do your checking Check him Yes madam Didn't I tell you I was clean? But, you never believe me Madam, there's stuff in this little girl's bag I don't know anything about that. Catch the one who has the stuff! Who gave it to you? Nobody. It was just lying on the streets Speak the truth. Why are you hitting her madam? It was Ravi who gave it to us and asked us to run. We don't even know what the bag contains Scumbag! Arrest him Cops went ballistic on me... I'm badly bruised Lost 50k worth stuff! Also, we have to stay out of business for a while! Have to just wait it out. What's the boy's name? It's Pulli If the other kids learn from his deeds, it's over! We can be in business only till the kids are terrified of us! Did you just let the boy go scot-free? He's Vedha's brother So what? What will he do? Put a mark on the boy! Hey, what's going on? Why are you dragging him away? Let go. Please... let go Let go of me, please! Please don't, please...Let go, please Please don't, don't! stop! My palm hurts, really hurts brother Pulli will be alright, no? Brother, don't leave me and go... I'll be back soon dear Don't leave me alone Pulli, listen to me... Don't go. It's ok. Ok. Rest dear Take care him Vedha, let me come along! You tell me sir... Who should Vedha punish? Ravi, the one who pierced Pulli's hand or Sangu, the one who asked Ravi to do it? Nice. You'll hit a vehicle, smuggle using the tow truck...instantly, become a don! What were the cops doing till then? Plucking their pubic hair? Vikram sir, the question is not about Vedha. It's a moral question! Morals?! Have a doubt. When you guys do your stuff, do you know you're in the wrong? Or do you just do it to show off some sort of 'heroism'? You guys become heroes the day you 1st wear your uniform... But for guys like me, we have to do something to become a hero! Let go of that sir In a story, if the choice is between the good guy and the bad guy, then its easy to choose But, in this story, both the guys are bad! Now, who will you punish? Why the stinginess? Punish both You can't just do away with both. Even if its crime, there's a moral aspect to punishment The one who did or the one who instigated it? If you punish Ravi, Sangu will abscond If you punish Sangu, Ravi will abscond Ravi or Sangu? The doer or the instigator, who would you punish, sir? Sangu proposed; Ravi executed So, Ravi is just the weapon; useless Though Sangu is a powerful man, I would have gone after him only! Whatever you did, did you do it for your brother or just to gain clout in the area? What's up? They have come... Priya? Is he your case? Mr.Vedha is a client of our firm's. And he's my Senior Lawyer Anticipatory bail Why did you even surrender? Just to go on bail immediately? Bail papers are in order sir? You scoundrel... Sir, talk to my lawyer sir What does sir have to say Vedha? Ravi, me and sir are pals now See you later sir What game are you playing? That's for you to find. Isn't that your job? Ravi, let's go How am I supposed to know that you're involved in this case? Now that you know, think... Priya, Vedha is using you to get to me Don't look at everything from just your point of view Mr.Vedha is an important client of our firm... In the 3mts since we moved to Chennai, for me to get a job... and get to work in such a big case as a junior is a huge deal! Tell me something... It was Vedha who surrendered himself, right? Huh...behaving as though you hunted him down and caught him alive! Stop it Hey silly? Won't you be careful? It's ok. Nothing big Anyways, I will encounter Vedha over the next couple of weeks. Then, we'll see who you represent First, find his whereabouts... then you do the encounter Really? Priya, just think about it Priya, living under the same roof and working on the case...our personal life will be hell Even if there's a phone call, we need to run in different directions to speak... And as husband and wife working on the same case, neither your court or my Department will accept it Common please...rescue yourself from the case Why don't you step out of the case? If your job is important to you, then so is mine to me! He's a criminal with 16 murder cases on him... He's the reason for our lives being on the edge! You think it's an achievement to represent him? You lawyers have no sense of justice and morality? Oh, so what's just? From a legal standpoint, what you're doing is unjust as well! Why did you get me to marry a lawyer? Can't stop an argument Am a bit busy...Can I call you later? Sorry. Anything important? Where are you headed? To the cable factory. Got info that someone called Chandra has some lead on a drug deal Shall I come? No. I'll take care Okay...Be careful Please don't let go...Please, please! What happened? The guy who died in the last encounter is Vedha's brother Pulli! This number is currently switched off The number you're dialing is not reachable... Got info that someone called Chandra has some lead on a drug deal Hey Chandra, you're elder to him So take care of him, will you? The encounter headed by Inspector Simon... It was I who planned this Operation The one who executed or the one who proposed? Sir, it was Vedha's brother Pulli who died in the encounter! Vedha has come out to seek revenge! He's targeted Simon; Simon's life is in danger! Move away! Simon! Simon! Simon! Simon! Don't let the Press in... Control the public Yes sir Where's vikram? Inside sir Ask for the Forensics team Have done that sir This is not your fault Officers on duty, that too the remarkable ones have died in the past too... There's nothing you or me could have done to prevent this Sir, the Commissionaire and the ADGP have arrived. They are asking for you sir Tell them I'll come Has the family been informed? Sir, I'll do it Veda attended a wedding at Vellore that day Are you supporting the man who killed Simon? If Anita comes to know...How can you be so sure that Vedha killed him? Vedha was not in town that night... I don't care...I don't understand Enough! This is why spouses shouldn't be working on the same case! Ms. Priya, you may leave. We will meet in court Vikram, it's no use if you continue to bark like this in anger! Agreed. Vedha might have a motive It could very well be a revenge killing for his brother's death in the encounter! But the photos shown by your wife Priya does prove that he was not at that spot at the time Sir, but just look at the autopsy reports The reports say the same thing The fatal bullets from Simon's body came from the gun that girl Chandra carried! Sir, whatever you may say...the reason behind Simon's death is Vedha! Vikram, you don't just come to conclusions! The CBCID is handling the case right? Then, they will take care! If we interfere in Simons case.. ..ADGP has ordered that hell suspend our unit How can we wait till CBCID closes the case? We have to wait it seems No other way out Do they think we are limp dicks? Come what may...We'll handle it Can't just let go of Simon's death! Vedha, that rascal Vedha! Let's get him! But, who know where Vedha is cocooned? His lawyer will know! Priya, the cops are gunning to file a new case on Vedha and arrest him You file for another anticipatory bail...need to prepare documents and get Vedha's signature So, make a call to him and... Vedha's very intelligent. He's aware that his phone will be tapped and will not use it Ok Priya, then how do we get his signature? I will get his signature sir Ok then, good. Hey, don't tail too close It's your wife we're following sir; might get iffy Would we even hesitate if it was some lawyer? Right sir Hey, it's working...trace the number from which this SMS was sent Koot road is coming up. Ask the bikes to take a lead Hey, stop the vehicle a little ahead Ask Ansari and Prabakar alone to follow her in the bike Madam is just returning home. Sir, madam is heading home Sir, the number is switched off; but the last known location is this road Wait a minute! At the speed breaker, a green Qualis stopped, didn't it? Yes sir. Document transfer must have happened there That green Qualis must be around this area only. Trace the vehicle Common, lets go! Let's go! The vehicle has stopped at an eatery. It's moving then, follow the vehicle Don't loose him. Follow. Fast Come on. Make a u-turn Go, go, go go! Sir, it's Mullai Nagar Housing board Spotted him sir. He's even carrying the file madam gave. Ok sir Sir, this area for sure. But, don't know which flat or even block Vedha has many informers in this area sir Sir, but if we knock and check on every flat, we can find him for sure Shut up - Who are they? - Look like cops Correct. Start from A block and search every house! Yes sir Vedha brother, the cops have crept in. They are sniffing around nooks and corners Hey...what happened? Cops are enquiring Please go from here Age is catching up! Hey, move out...give way Hey, where are you going? Who are all there at home? No one sir Who lives in that house? Inspector is on his way Whom do you want? Whom do you want? Why are you entering our house? What are you up to? huh? This is what I call a cop! Vikram sir, I under estimated you Heard your friend Simon died? I feel sorry Sir, sir...wait sir Sir, when you're emotional, you can't see nor hear sir! Sir, listen to me sir...listen Sir, just cool Sir, stop it sir Why the hell did you kill Simon? Sir, sir, wait... Why did you have to kill him? Get off me sir Sir, sir, my brother also died... you killed him! What did you say? Pulli was a criminal; but Simon, a cop. Are both the same, huh?? But the emotion is the same...right sir? If you bleed, it's blood; If we bleed, is it tomato ketchup? Hey, get up now! Can I tell you another story sir? No sir. Haven't fixed the spot yet I'll finish the job and call you in half an hour You should have killed him on the spot I should have; but, public had gathered by then So, I couldn't. But there's no tension sir. I'm cool. Will finish the job and call you Okay Sir, pass me a drag It seems, you'll die soon if you smoke. Here, take a puff How does it matter when you die? Isn't it cool when you know your death is in your own hands? Not everybody is that lucky my Prince Some guys try to escape when they are being dragged out... They will just end up with a bullet to their head dead in barren lands for vultures to pick! I really pity them sir... Your dad was a cop too, sir? He died on duty sir? Was it a heart attack sir? Sir, under your control sir. It's nothing; nothing sir He got stabbed and killed by a criminal like you when he was on his trail That's the reason you're trigger happy around criminals, sir? Sir, your dad's bike is an old '78 model Bullet You're looking for a chain sprocket for it now? Will you be able to find it sir? Are you watching me? Is that the reason for you to appoint my wife as your lawyer? I just gave her employment sir... I do know that you're deeply sentimental inside else, would you try to fix an old bike and ride? That's sentiment, right? Nothing of that sort. Bike has been idle for long just thought I'll fix it and use Heard you're educating Muni's son. What sentiment is that sir? Crap sentiment! Don't want the death of a criminal to lead to the birth of another That's it. Simple logic! So, a cop's son is a cop; a criminal's son, a criminal? That's your logic? It's pathetic Was Gandhi's dad Gandhi? Or the guy who shot him, Godse... was his son Godse too? No, right? OK, your time's over. Kneel down Sir, sir, let me tell you a story before my death; consider it my last wish; it's a sentimental story... please sir. Let me tell a story sir... 'Gangsta and his moll 2yrs ago' Go man You, son of a bitch PULLI! Hey, hey...who the hell are you guys? Enough. Come on now... Wait I'll also come Who asked you to come here? Brother...that... It didn't hurt so bad, even when I got hit Why did you shout at me for coming there? Why do you want to get into all this mess? You're scared that something would happen to me. Its that concern, right? Imagine, how I'll feel? Why are you so into that toxic trade? You never listen to me... Pulli sir, you might be a king in math; but I'm the King in my trade! Everybody has an interest. And you should work only in your area of interest I came into this trade 'because I like it; but now, the trade likes me even more. What do you do? The guys who depend on me laugh at my lamest jokes right? In life, that's what's called as pizzazz! Hey Chandra, stupid! That's what happens when you go full speed! slow down What's your problem now? What? Just put the medicine Brother Those days, we used to struggle to eat roadside biriyani even once a week, right? Now, if we want to we can have biriyani thrice a day at an air conditioned restaurant, right? So what? If not, we'll still be just sniffing biriyani... If earning money is your problem, there are a lot of ways to do it brother... You gave me 5 lakhs to splurge, right? I invested some in finance and rest in shares... In 3mts, 1lakh profit; converted black to white as well! Here, apply it in the night. You'll get alright Brother, brother... listen to me Wait dear, wait...wait Hey, it's nothing. I'm ok. Let go Take care brother I'm pretty strong; let go Brother, bro...brother... Yes, now what? Tell me Till date, have I ever gone against your word? Not like asking you to quit cold turkey Over a period of time, you can do some respectable business, right? You bring in your boys as well... They will laugh at your lame jokes then too! Ok dear. You take a share or 50% or even the full money I make and invest it in business, share market, etc But, just let me go! Thanks What should I say? No mention No mention. You've become the big man, huh? Aiy, hi... Hi Just because you're the boss, I can't laugh at your lame jokes It's okay I'll only laugh when its really funny Not required; get lost! Look, what I've accomplished? My bro has promised to slowly quit his profession Yeah, yeah...I've seen it all in these sugary, sentimental movies... Why are you pulling up a long face? As if you're the only one with a brother? Going on and on about your bro. Go to his place; he'll feed you and you can sleep next to him... Like a lame baby! Stop it woman! I've been with you since childhood; but I don't look important to you, right? Just because I'm all the time thinking about you, you take me for granted! I know what you're thinking. Why should you marry? someone a couple of years elder to you, right? You're a full grown man; but still hang on to your bro's cord...Dumb ass idiot! Don't you want a status, a job, make money... Nothing? Stupid moron! Today is my birthday... do you at least remember? What are you doing? I'm screaming there, while you're stripping here? Hey, what? You stopped yelling? However enraged one is, she can never scream at a naked man! Do you know that? You dumb ass, you are my life! It gets interesting after this. Yesterday, a guy stood behind me carrying a machete! Didn't see. Just miss. Would have died right there OMG? Then what happened? Then what? He just grabbed, locked and flung him The bugger fell straight on his nose! Who did? Our boy Pulli man! You mean our Pulli? Yup! you should have seen his pizzazz! He was this little boy, running around with his school bag; now, he's flogging these goons! Don't mention it to him. He's still a kid Definitely not; won't tell him! All that's good. But, why are these quotation gang guys from Kerala constantly buggering us? No honor among thieves anymore? Will one thief steal from another? What thieves? We're the cool gangsta's in town! Wow, gangstas huh? Look at him Hey, come here Who's a gangsta? Who's a thief? Thieves go some place, take some money without the owner's consent and share amongst themselves While gangsta's go as a group, take the money and split it amongst... However you see it, it's all the huh? Move on! Vedha, if they were locals, it will take just 10 minutes Just grab our knives and stab them straight This is some quotation gang from Kerala. We don't know their hideouts! It's like a pain in the arse. Can't see it, but constantly pokes you If there's a problem, don't just look at the problem. Look at the reason behind the problem Who's tipping them about our movements? Look for the rat! Okay? Hello Cheta! Vedha, my dear lion cub! Cheta, this month's collection Boy... Accounts for... Stop. Don't I know your accounts are clean? What's bothering you, sir? Vedha just sit down We're all in the same business... should we be friends? Quit fighting and be nice! Only then, will we all thrive, Understood? Let go of this paper tiger... Waiter? You've not had mutton chops here, right? It's the best mutton chops in town You wouldn't have tasted this in your lifetime. Waiter, get Cheta 2 parottas and mutton chops. Go Tell me Cheta Vedha, I heard you're converting black to white? How is that? Wow! That's why you are the Don of Dons I'm not doing it. It's my brother Pulli. He's the one who's smart and educated! We can triple our profits, that too legally Like business men?

Pulli, take a puff What the hell is this? Is it giving you a buzz? It will look like a normal cigarette; but fully stuffed with ganja! You'll suspect only if you smell it Now a days, who has the patience to buy paper, roll a joint and stick it together? Even one is ordering food over the internet! So, I'm developing the business with our times! Hey dumb ass, how dare you offer it to him? Gimme What? Nothing Pulli, look out for him He's the big businessman in town! Even bigger than Ambani! What say? With Sangu's death, its raining dollars on you! What raining dollars? The one who was peddling dungs in C block corner is the top drug lord in town today! What top? 20% of what I make goes to you Actually, I wanted to talk to you Vedha. 20% is a bit too much Ravi, can I ask you a question? Yeah, tell me There's a snake coiled around Lord Shiva's neck, right? Is the snake there for Lord Shiva's safety or is the snake perched there for its own safety? Just nod one way or the other Don't know Shiva lets go of the snake. Will he be affected? No The snake leaves Shiva's neck. What happens to it? What happens? It will get trampled by some passerby on the road and meet its end! You, snake... Me, Shivan; For the snake's safety, it has to pay taxes to Lord Shiva! Understood? Sethu bro, where have you kept the money? In a real safe place; Chandra's house! Why did you leave it at her place? She will loose it with me! I'll go pacify her first Why is he petrified of his wife even before they are married? Granny, munching on some tobacco? Chandra, Chandra dear... Open the door darling Chandra! Brother, Chandra is... They have abducted Chandra and taken the money Must be that Kerala Quotation gang Why would they? Why her? Who is tipping the gang? Hey, let go off me! Take your hands away from me! I will... If you have a problem with me, deal with me! Vedha! Cheta, this is too much! He's acting this way because you have given him too much space! He will take all the money; when it goes missing, he will dare to hold my collar? I had nothing to do with the money Cheta! Cheta, Cheta stop... Vedha, just stop it. Dilli says he had nothing to do with it; I believe Dilli Vedha, I gave you the money. You have to return it! It's your responsibility Cheta! Money has to come back to me! Vedha, Dilli will look after Operations until my money comes back It's bad scene Vedha at the harbor. Nobody wants to touch our goods! We're loosing grip at the market Vedha Amongst all this chaos, have you completely forgotten my Chandra? Tell me brother Money and Chandra are missing... You think she's still alive? Stop bro! Just look for her... It's going to be ok...ok "You don't go, leaving me alone..." "My dear...letting my heart thump in loneliness..." Chandra! Chandra, where are you? Pulli Chandra, say something Chandra... Pulli, I'm really sorry dear "First time I saw, I was enamored... changed me somehow from who I am" "More than just you," "I wanted many things in this materialistic world..." "First time I saw, I was enamored... changed me somehow from who I am" "More than just you," "I wanted many things in this materialistic world..." "Till the eternity of time, are you gonna just keep me waiting..." "You give me some love and disappear like a mirage..." Since, you've always been with me since childhood, you didn't seem like a big deal Only after I walked away with the money, did I realize... Without you, nothing else matters! I just want to be with you Pulli. You're the only one that matters... Pulli, say something, please! Master plan huh? Steal as a family when Cheta refused to believe, you come and catch my collar? Hey Dilli, the money has come back right? Vedha, look at me... After so many years in business what will people say if just let go of a bitch who stole from me? Don't we have a moral code for our trade? Slit her throat and kill her... Now, what should Vedha do? If you go with Cheta, professional ethics, Chandra will die; Pulli will be ruined, a zombie If you go with brother, sentiments... then, mentor Cheta will become the arch enemy! Work or sentiment? Let me tell you in the language you understand. This tree is the line... The one on that side of the line is the good one; on this side is the bad man Last story, both of them were bad. In this story, both are justified in their stance... Whose side should I lean? Cheta or Pulli? Work or sentiment? You tell me sir! Cheta is a big man; very powerful But, Pulli is not like that Going against Cheta is going against the world! But for Pulli, you and Chandra are his world! If it were me, I would stand by Pulli. After all, Pulli is innocent! You're right; Pulli is an innocent! I did what you said; I went with sentiment... I sent Pulli and Chandra to another city The price I paid for it... I jumped into the battle field... Full gang war! If you want to find out why Simon died, first find out why Pulli died! Don't conclude before you search... Search and then conclude! Go! Only by looking into a man's eyes, you should judge if the man is a criminal or an innocent Even after an encounter, I can go home and sleep peacefully... You know why? I know for a fact that I've never killed an innocent! Vikram, you're alright nah? You're bleeding Don't touch me Priya, at that moment, I felt I was right in following you to track Vedha What's right Vikram? Using your own wife to get your job done? Sit down You're hurt. When I see it, my heart flutters But the thought of what you did, infuriates me! Look Priya... Don't you say a word If it hurts too much, tell me We will go to the hospital I told you I don't know... but you keep repeating the question, huh? We will see to it later. Bye Vedha! You know where all I was searching for you? The cops have put a shooting order on you It's no problem. I have a place near Meenjur. You go there. Stay put till problem subsides... Cops have locked my money. Got any? Money? Give me 10mins. I'll ask the boys to get more Not necessary. Just give me the car keys You heard me ok, ok... here Wait Vedha. I know you for long You're not the types who will get caught by the cops That Vikram is also not an easy guy. Please be careful in dealing with him I told you then only; don't make that cop's wife your lawyer Now see, what trouble she has gotten you into? It's only because of her that you... If you need a job done, you should ignore who, what and where the person comes from... Just concentrate on our job getting done It's not like that Vedha... Will you shut your trap? What are you going to do now Vedha? Don't just wander in the open... Vedha, listen to me! Sorry madam. I hit your husband...am sorry Just cut the bullshit... Come to the point You're justified. I hit your husband in his moment of weakness and you're angry with me for that? You're wondering why I'm riding on Vikram sir's shoulder? I can only ask questions to the man who can find the answers! Vedha, don't go about in circles again First listen to me and then you can get angry In everybody's eyes, I'm a criminal, rowdy, don I can do whatever I want... that's Vedha! That's all true. But none of this taint fell on my brother. Pulli is a lovely boy He's my child Suddenly, they tell me he was killed in an encounter! I don't know why they killed him or how... Pulli is not his name... In my area, in the circumstances, He studied, got centum in math and earned the title... Pulli! They killed him Vedha... You're probably wondering why I pulled you into this game For the questions I raised, Vikram sir would have started to explore answers by now... He will definitely get stuck at some point... I need you to help me at that juncture... I sent Pulli and Chandra out of town Vedha sent Pulli and Chandra to a different city Why should they come down here and die? If we need to solve Simon's case, we need to figure out why Pulli died We went hunting for Muni. Pulli got caught in the midst. It was mere coincidence I'm sorry sir. In my experience, nothing is merely coincidental. There's always a reason to something! Vedha is a killer. You listen to him and... Go find a way to capture him Just a minute sir Look at this I don't understand sir Recently wounded and healed scars... Somebody had tortured Chandra Still don't understand sir... Why would they torture Chandra? Get me Pulli's phone records Yes sir Look sir. Pulli has just arrived at the city a day before his encounter They have tortured and bullied Chandra to get Pulli come here... This is definitely not a coincidence sir Somebody is using us to play a game What's your point? They knew that Pulli was in the warehouse and gave us the information Who was that informant who gave us the tip that day? Simon's informant...Kattai! It's pretty dangerous to follow these guys sir Where can we find Kattai now? Take a right and the next left; we will be at Kattai's place Sir, looks like today is the 16th day ceremony for Muni and Gundu Babu These guys are like scavenging vultures; Rounding up the area, realizing Vedha is weak! Something's terribly wrong! What's Cheta doing here? Hurry up! What happened sir? Somebody has just killed Kattai! The murderer couldn't have crossed the area... Come on, search! search! Sir, who are we looking for? No idea! Prabakar, somebody is thinking two steps ahead of us. We shouldn't let him escape! Sir, we'll catch him... we will find who it is for sure! Man, I trusted you to do the job... Sir, you keep asking us to find the killer... but who is the killer? Won't I tell you if I know? Just do what I say Son of a bitch! Son of a bitch! Some Kerala Quotation gang; don't have a clue on their hideout! Watch where you go You do the same, you moron Who are you? Whose man are you? Who sent you? Tell me, tell! Sir, I was tense; just shot him. But he would have definitely stabbed you sir... Sir, it was you who told me judge a person with a look. I did that and shot him sir Well done. He would have killed me if you didn't shoot him Your 1st wicket right? No warrant. Ask the boys to complete other formalities and clear the body Yes, sir Priya... So, you've decided not to talk to or hold eye contact, huh? Before giving a judgment, at least hear my side of the argument? What argument are you going to make Vikram? Ignoring the fact that I'm your wife... See, that's the problem If I had followed another lawyer and arrested a criminal, would you be this upset? But, what you did... Think without getting emotional, be fair Priya, shall we strike a deal? Anything concerning our profession, we will keep it outside the doorway... Inside the house, we're just husband and wife, ok? Does that mean you will follow me again? Just try going into the bedroom and see! Can't sleep? What happened? Nothing... Is it work related? Seriously? Isn't this a bit silly? The deal was to keep work out of the doorstep, right. Priya, I'll be straight I need to tell Vedha something Is this why you made up with me in such urgency? No, not at all I have no clue where Vedha is...Sorry Priya it's really important But I told you that I don't... Vikram sir will be stuck at a point. At that moment, I need your help Now I understand...I'm like a courier pigeon between the two of you! How did you find Vedha last time? By following me, right? Don't bring that up again... It's not that. When you're are stuck in a problem, Vedha asked me to tell you just two words... What? Mutton chops! I don't know what that means... What will you eat sir? 2 parotta with mutton chops And I need to talk to Vedha Here sir There are some rules to eat parotta! First take a piece of meat; stuff it in the parotta; 3 dips in the gravy; now stuff it in your mouth Sir, its Vedha... Hello Vikram sir? Welcome sir. How is the mutton chops? super, huh? Sir, I have a gift for you. It's at Jaff's store in Pudupet; Sentimental gift. Don't miss it like usual I too have gift for you! You don't know who tipped on you to the Kerala gang, right? You want to know who gave info about your bro to our department, right? It will look like regular cigarette; but it's fully stuffed! Mr. Ravi! "Life is a race" "rambling and roaming ruptured and fractured" "And you end up in the same spot you started from" "In the end, we will just be buried or burnt!" "There's no proof of anybody going to heaven or hell!" "Just live as the moment exists..." "If the moment is favorable, thrive on it!" "There's nothing good or bad here. Just life. Let go!" "The Coward and the brave are one." "Brave cowards do exist!" "The righteous and the vicious are the same." "Just the same!" "To uphold righteousness, vicious things have been done!" "Don't believe in anybody..." "Anybody here and now!" "If you believe, then don't doubt!" "Until the end of time" "Don't go to war..." "Come may whatever, fight till end" Yeah Vikram? SP sir, it was Ravi who killed Simon! What? Ravi played us to destroy Vedha! Now, they are both at the cable factory... Vikram, listen to me. Simon already died there... Don't enter alone trusting Vedha. You wait... I'll immediately assemble our team and come there You come sir. But, I will finish them both before you arrive Sir! Come in, come in... Vikram Sir, I have a doubt Have they built these factories to function... or for the purpose of people like us to fight? Thanks; For the chain gear sprocket No mention So, you have come with a plan, huh? Only after hearing Ravi's story, I realise how comicall all this is. Sir, listen to this story. You'll understand All you criminals are just the same, right? Will act like friends and back stab when needed? Why did you kill Simon? Tell me... Why the hell did you kill Simon? Don't laugh; don't you dare. The only reason I've left you alive is to find out why Simon died! Vikram sir, a guy in my area lost something here; but searched for it there! When asked why search for it there instead of here he told it's bright and easy there than here! Your logic is like that sir! ENOUGH! If you continue speaking in circles, I will shoot you straight in the temple! Speak straight! Shoot sir...shoot me! Shoot! Sir, you know very well that there's not just a single dimension to my stories! This story is also about us! Not just that, by now you are used to listening to my story and I'm used to telling you; so, listen! 'Gangsta - Police 3 months back...' 'Mumbai' Here, keep it 2000 bundle? It will be hard to get change. 500s? You brat, keep it My domestic goddess! Are you still eating with your left hand? So what? What happened? Our boys are fighting with all sincerity. But Cheta is a big man! He has Dilli's support as well... If we send 10 guys, they are sending a 100! Our shirts are stained and stink of blood! Then why don't you quit all that and settle down here? Hmm. Get married and settle. Your wife will whip you down and silence you! I'm not averse to the idea... but, I've aged without the scent of a woman! Hanging out with men all day, sometimes I feel like I'm stuck in a gents toilet! I too have a love story. Want to listen? Don't believe me? You haven't seen me romance, huh? It's pretty heavy. Pulli, don't panic; guns are common here Why all this brother? Didn't I tell you already? Blood stained shirts... Only if you slay people in close quarters will shirts stain... With guns, I can shoot from afar! How's my idea? Super Keep half a dozen ready. I'll pick it up Don't place it near your temple Bro, I'm sorry bro What are you sorry for? It's because of me that you have to fight this gang war? If an egg breaks, don't crib that its broken Use the broken egg to make an omelet and eat! Don't you agree Chandra? Only the hen that laid the egg feels the pain! How long can one be working under a man like Cheta? Am I right Chandra? Pulli, there will be problems in life. Only when the problem gets bigger, can you reach next level! Who is our man Vedha? Who's he? Now, don't pull a long face. Shall I leave? I didn't know at the moment that this will be the last time I'll see them alive! Vedha. Take care There's a new twist to the intense gang war going on in North Chennai: Gun culture is in! Nobody knows when and where one will attack! But Vedha, if you just walk down the streets, the rats run into their holes and bury themselves! Even if kids fuss to eat, moms threaten that they will call the boogeyman Vedha and make them eat! You've become 'the made man' in our area! I'm really proud of you Ravi, there's nobody better than you to lick ass! You call me an ass licker? Let go Ravi. Ignore him Where's my drink? You've become old and fat! Better hit the gym! Half Boil, one drink please... Also Ravi, the rules have changed What rules? You take care of business as usual... But, the share is not 80-20. It's 50-50, ok? To hell with 50-50? Why don't you take it all? I'll take a bowl and beg in the streets Sure. That's left to you You were a dock worker; a dog! It's my fault that I let you talk to me like an equal! Hey, hey stop it man Sit Ravi How dare he Vedha? Sit down Ravi, relax. I'll take care What? Don't you know what to talk to who? Who do you think he is? He was peddling dope in the slums He has worked hard and become a great business man Yeah Vedha, tell him Who are you? You were just a pack mule and dare to fight him? Sir, but you pay the 50% share as he says... Pay up bum! - Vedha - What? Ravi, are you still employing kids? No. Ravi, don't you dare... I told you I don't! Hey, fix me a drink, please... Fix me one too Fix me a drink, please... Look at him, pretending to be angry I'll give you extra. But, Vedha and his gang, all of them should die! Money is not the problem; Guns are the issue! Vedha's boys are invincible with guns! Our boys are unable to touch them. Whatever said and done, Vedha is a powerful guy! What powerful? What do you know? There was a Don named Sangu in my area. I was his next in line! Vedha stepped in and spoilt it. How dare he order me? How does it matter if I employ kids? Vedha has to die! All of them have to die! That's it! The gang war in North Chennai is affecting the public very badly In order to control this, a special task force has been appointed! Heard the news bro? We're in the limelight! They have appointed 'Special cops' to catch us! We're in the 'big league' dude! We're the Kings of our area! Hey, who is it? Police! The cops! Hey, no... don't... no! Half Boil, what's happening? Why are they only targeting our boys? Vellai is too young to die! That's why I'm telling you Vedha. Let's go into hiding till all this nonsense settles down Hey, are you senile? If Vedha goes underground, what happens to his reputation? Couple of his boys die and Vedha went into hiding like a coward? Who will be scared then? You get back at them Vedha! He doesn't get you... Hey chameleon, those stupid cops shot our golden boys instead of scum like you... Peahen, they should kill you next! You're a drug mule! And you... think you're a collector? Just get lost Cops are on trail... Its nothing new for cops to do encounters on guys like us! It doesn't look like a police man's job to me Then, who? Somebody is behind all this if only I find out... Find out and do what? How much longer, Vedha? Men in flesh and blood have died. As if we're bigger... Hey, what are you saying? Pulli was right. Pack up your bags and move to Bombay! Half Boil, are you trying to pack me off alone? Drive, just drive Where will I go bro? You go first; I'll follow you like a lamb You just drive...my dear symbol of sacrifice! Dude, you go; I'll follow, I'll be ok; don't worry, just go! Jump... There's no way I'm leaving you alone... aiyyy... Half Boil! He's sharp; He'll be back! I always thought the glory was in winning That day I realised it was all meaningless Where's Vedha sir? You told me he'll be in this car? He was in this car only; the son of Satan! Escaped somehow! Take it sir The amount we agreed for him 25 lakhs Guys got guns from Bombay and created a scene? I got the real gun power... 'the cops' to finish you guys! Catch that, catch! Sir, finished the whole gang sir...only Vedha is remaining. I'll find him somehow I'll give you information sir. The way you shoot, his whole body should be punctured! I'll double the payment Vikram sir, aren't you the one who's always clear? This is black and that's white; He's good and he's bad! One's police and the other criminal, etc... Where do you stand? This side of the line or that? Or has the line totally disappeared and we're stranded in a circle? Now, tell me Vikram sir! So, Simon got bribe from Ravi and went about killing? You'll keep telling stories... And I should readily believe them? Am I a dumb ass to believe everything you say? Vikram Sir, you're like a horse with blinders! Will you see only what you know? Won't learn anything new? Heard Simon's son is really ill and it will cost a lot to treat? Is an Inspector's salary sufficient for that? No. Simon would have come to me if he had some troubles... How can he? Your honesty is scary! No... Simon?! Vikram sir, you're like a gun Whoever presses the trigger, you'll shoot! That's why I'm not angry with you Yes Vedha. I'm just a gun. But, you know why your brother Pulli died? Only then will you emerge from your hideout... I may have shot him; But the reason he died is 'you'! Vedha, you're not the reason... From a tender age, one will yearn for something; work hard towards it... even fully deserve it! Just when you're about to get it... a mongrel from nowhere, not only snatches it away from you... But, if you're forced to work under that mongrel...how much will it sting?! That's when why I plotted to kill you all! My plan fell apart! Now what? Just that I'll die first! No, no! No, no, no!! Why did you do that? Now, how will I know why Simon died?! But, it was not Ravi who killed Simon! Then who killed Simon? Who? That's immaterial to me It's for you to figure out Vedha told you another story and escaped? Do you believe in all that he says? Just don't understand one thing. If Ravi didn't kill Simon, then who did? Clearly, Simon came here to kill Chandra But in the shoot out, Chandra ended up killing Simon Sir, are we looking at this from the wrong angle? But the forensics has it clear that... Sir, lets forget about forensics; lets think about the people? Simon felt guilty... He believed that his sins were affecting his son Sins of the father will visit the son That's why he couldn't shoot Pulli, an innocent! Simon didn't come here investigate or kill Chandra Simon had come here to save Chandra! The Kerala Quotation gang had somehow managed to nab Chandra! At this spot, Chandra was tied and tortured Don't shout Come Hearing this noise, the goons have fired from there Go! Run! NO!!! There's no way Chandra would have known that Simon came here to save her... She might have killed him in fear or as revenge for Pulli's death. It's all clear in the forensics report; The bullet that killed Simon came from Chandra's gun! Vikram sir, you're like a horse with blinders! Will you just see what you know? Heard Simon's son is really ill and it will cost a lot to treat? Is an Inspector's salary sufficient for that? Giri, you had a grand wedding for your sister at AGM Marriage hall, right? Pandian, you bought your new bike with a single payment? Ansari, your kids in convent... the fees must be exorbitant! Prabakar, daily at the lodge? All high class hookers, huh? Constable sir, 2 lakhs bet on a horse at Guindy race course? So much disposable cash? Sir, you were right sir. What do I know other than being 'a cop'? I'm like a horse with blinkers! I just saw what I wanted to believe! How many times have I placed a gun in the hands of a corpse? You've done the same thing... But sir, the devil is in the details! While planting the gun in Chandra's hand, you did it on the wrong hand! Are you still eating with your left? You placed the gun in her left instead of right! What do you want me to do? None of the goons we killed were innocent. We were just doing our duty! We just took some money to do it...So? What's the big deal? Look at my leg; I lost it on duty, right? What did this department give me? Why? What did you and your dad get after being so honest? An old bullet and a modest police quarters Simple plan. What's that girl's name? Chandra? If we torture her, Pulli will come looking for her... If we kill Pulli, we thought Vedha will emerge out of his hideout! If we kill him, we would have got 50 lakhs from Ravi! This Simon, he unnecessarily develops a... ...conscience and decides to become the good guy! What if he had confessed to all our plans, we would all be prosecuted and locked up! We couldn't think of a way out We killed Simon! Every time I kill a criminal, I believed that I was doing the right thing! But, all this while, you were just getting paid to do it? Then, what's the difference between what we do and they do? Who's good and who's bad? Police...Criminal? What difference? Tell me! You have destroyed everything! Move back, move...back Drop your weapons! Put down your guns! Kick your guns away Santhanam, cover me! Yes sir... Santhanam, what are you doing? Don't... You'll get into trouble! Hey, listen to me... Don't! Thanks Vedha You just say thank you for saving your life? Shhh...Listen! Come on man! Run, run, run for your life! They are firing away like its a toy gun? You get up, get up! No way sir It's an order. Get up! Everybody split! Split! Just stay behind me... Vikram sir, are they angry with you or me? Then you go fight! Hmm...Okay Hey, don't shoot to kill! Vikram sir, am I holding the gun stylishly? I will... Hey, cover! What cover, plastic cover? Sir, step out of your cover For me? Oh God! You would have died... Wait! What sir, bathroom huh? Sir, he's shooting at me sir! He's exhausted his bullets; come now You're under arrest under section 420 Shall I shoot him sir? Let's shoot him sir Before becoming half a cop, you're a full criminal I am innocent Couldn't kill the guys you hangout with, huh? Thought if I should punish the executor or the instigator... They can still be reformed! Bye, bye What sir? You killed the SP? Serious case, huh? Yes... Will your wife argue for this case too? I'm not sure if she will take up my case Shall I put in a word of recommendation to her? Didn't I tell you? You have a charming smile! Love marriage, huh? I too have a love story...Shall I tell you? No way...No more of your stories! Enough with your stories! Your loss if you don't want to hear; It's a nice story Vikram sir, look at these guys... neither truthful to the people around or the job they do... forever running behind money and wealth? Don't they know that its all just body and ash at the end? Dead like roaches? What have we achieved? Absolutely nothing! Life is one hell of a comedy, right sir? What sir? Police, huh? Vedha sir, now what should Vikram do? Should I let you go? For saving my life and fighting by my side... Or should I shoot you? Because you're a murderer with 16 kills What's the ethical thing to do Vedha sir? "Life is a race" "rambling and roaming ruptured and fractured" "And you end up in the same spot you started from" "In the end, we will just be buried or burnt!" "There's no proof of anybody going to heaven or hell!" "Just live as the moment exists..." "If the moment is favorable, thrive on it!" "There's nothing good or bad here. Just life. Let go!" "The Coward and the brave are one." "Brave cowards do exist!" "The righteous and the vicious are the same." "Just the same!" "To uphold righteousness, vicious things have been done!" "Don't believe in anybody..." "Anybody here and now!" "If you believe, then don't doubt!" "Until the end of time" "Don't go to war..." "Come may whatever, fight till end" |
