"Ramani or I will drop you off every morning
No… please…
We’ll pick you up in the evening
OK? You’ll be fine.
Why are you doing this for me?
I don’t understand.
I told you didn’t I Balu.
The reasons are different…
But you and I have been affected the same way.
I had a friend who lifted me up.
Since you have no one, you’ve struggled a lot.
All this must change.
We’ll change it.
Is he the new admission?
OK?
Sir, can we go please?
OK… Carry on…
Excuse me…
Yes?
Have you ever lived in Anantham?
GN Chetty Road. T. Nagar.
Anantham?
I saw some old photographs.
I have actually seen you in those.
I am sure it was you.
Tell me please.
Firstly who are you?
Why are you asking me all this?
I am sorry. My name is Ananth.
I am Mr Venkatesan’s son.
I am an author.
I am writing a book now.
It is about different people who lived at Anantham at different times.
You want me to share my life so you can make money?
I’m really sorry Ma’am.
But… Why should I see you here?
This isn’t a coincidence.
It was meant to be.
It isn’t wrong to share our story if it will help someone else shape their life.
I have shared my story too.
Because I believe it can change somebody’s life…
If there is nothing to share, it is OK.
It isn’t necessary that something unique should happen in everyone’s life.
There are so many people who lead non-descript lives.
I’ll just assume your life is like that and move on.
I’m really sorry.
Thank you!
One second sir.
I’m Parvathy.
I am a psycho-therapist.
OK…
I work here.
We lived in Anantham between 1996 and 2005

PARVATHY
Colour it here.
Do it with patience.
“The one with Patience will rule the world”
Auntie, what does Patience mean?
Why should I rule the world, Auntie?
Leave it. I meant you should colour slowly
Then why didn’t you say that?
I’ll say it next time… Now fill this colour.
Please come… come in.
Please sit down.
My God, look how they’ve grown!
Hi Suresh!
What are you doing?
Drawing is it? -Yes
See what I have bought you?
Chocolate -Thank you.
Come on darling.
Take it
Thank you.
Smart boy!
Suresh, come here!
Why…?
Your hand is full of colour…
Wont Uncle’s shirt get dirty?
Oh… OK-OK…
Bring him coffee.
Yes I will…
You take sugar don’t you?
Yes I do!
Both of you shouldn’t move from here.
You should be done by the time I get back.
But didn’t you say we should do it slowly?
You’re such a brat!
Mom…
Parvathy, I have invigilation duty today.
I’ll be back late.
Bharat Uncle is here. Dad wants coffee…
Can’t you see I am busy? Make it yourself.
If he spits it out I am not responsible.
Help your sister in law when she gets back.
She struggles alone every day.
Is saying Hello to everyone on a flight such a tough job?
People, who idle away at home, tend to assume being an Air-Hostess is easy work.
Only I know the pain of smiling at people I don’t like.
That is why grumps like you can’t work at airlines…
Stop it both of you.
God knows when you sisters will stop bickering!
She started it mom.
Every time I see her I feel like teasing her.
Yeah sure!
What are you doing here?
Don’t you have a place of your own?
You married me off to a guy from the Merchant Navy…
He spends half his life on the seas…
Won’t I be bored?
And I can’t stand my own cooking Mom…
Give that to me.
Hey kiddo! Don’t I get coffee?
It is a miracle she has made coffee today.
You expect her to make it for you too???
Why not?
I share all the perfumes my husband gives me don’t I?
Oh Really?
Yeah!
Mummy!
Hi darling!
Hi Auntie… -I thought you’d be here in the afternoon.
Yeah… But all the flights were delayed today
Come on…
Sit…
Mummy, see my drawing.
Wow… so nice.
He’s good isn’t he?
Yeah…
Dad… thanks…
Sit down
Excuse me! Coffee!
Why trouble yourself Uncle?
You serve coffee to everyone, cant I serve you?
It’s a woman’s world now. -Thanks!
Enjoy it…
Not this colour… Car should be white.
Sumithra freshen up. Dinner is almost ready.
OK… Thanks Auntie…
Wow
No one has ever done all this for me!
You say you are on site duty and stay at home all day.
You don’t deserve special treatment.
I think we should move out Sumithra
Oh No… You go if you want…
I can’t survive without my mother-in-law’s food.
I am making the rotis
Ok. Come on.
I’m starting the rotis! Let's freshen up
Only when I am done with my coffee…
Bring the rotis -We’re famished.
Why do you come through the back?
As usual…
Only if you eat, I will help you with your home-work.
One more bite. -Just one is enough.
Parvathy… let them eat… don’t feed them.
They spill food on themselves dad...
It is OK...
It is better they learn now than never.
Yes, she is over-protective.
I am the mother and I don’t say anything.
What’s your problem?
That is exactly my problem.
Do you actually take care of your child ever?
Don’t coddle them just because you’re bored.
My daughter keeps cribbing that I am not like her aunt and has become too demanding...
Naturally, they’ll become dependent.
Then they’ll keep expecting us to do everything for them...
Don’t make them lazy like you.
Stop picking on her...
Hey Paru...
Paru...
Paru
What happened?
What is this?
One can’t eat peacefully in this house ever!
You both keep picking on her all the time.
Hello... You’re the one who started it.
It was just a casual statement.
You used that to pounce on her.
She’s not doing the right thing.
She behaves like she is the mother.
She doesn’t let me get in a word.
She herself is still a baby son.
She is over-sensitive.
No one can say anything to her.
My son is becoming like her.
OH...
Yes dad... my daughter has become a cry-baby.
Really? Then I suggest you take your kids to your own homes and look after them.
You’re right Auntie (mom-in-law)
As far as I am concerned, I am so grateful to Parvathy.
When I am out of town, are you the one who bathes and sends them to school?
Yes... Ask him that!
Or do you help them with their school work?
Sis... (Sister-in-law)!
She is sensitive I agree...
But if she wasn’t around, I would never be able to work in peace.
You too wouldn’t be able to live your upbeat lifestyle.
She’s right isn’t she?
She’s doing a nanny’s work for free... When she should be going out with friends...
It is OK if you don’t appreciate her, but don’t criticize her.
Let’s eat.
Child...
Sorry dear...
The argument started because of me.
You weren’t like this as a kid...
You were always cheerful and friendly.
Suddenly you became withdrawn.
You don’t talk to anyone.
I didn’t even notice as I was so busy working.
It’s nothing like that Dad...
Is it wrong to be quiet?
You can’t be protective about everything.
Can you learn to ride a bicycle without falling?
No...
It is the same logic in life as well.
Small wounds teach us big things in life.
Do all wounds heal dad?
Of course! What kind of question is that?
You eat now.
Don’t starve!
Listen to me
Come on eat
Thank you!
“Boo”
Sorry, sorry! OK My friends and I are going to the new Mall... Why don’t you come along?
You’re inviting me? What happened to you?
Don’t act over-smart!
I invited you because I felt sorry that you don’t have any friends.
And you dare to mock me?
I’ll be leaving in half an hour.
If you want to come, get ready!
Sis... I’ll come...
OK... get ready.
“Two PMs in one country” How?
It was a meeting! -Oh that’s right!
Don’t ever come out again.
I didn’t beg to come.
You called me. -Just shut up.
Just shut up -Why should I shut up? I won’t.
Behave yourself!
You behave yourself first!
What do you think of yourself?
Just stop it!
She is the one who is picking a fight!
Mom... I am sick and tired of her behaviour.
She just doesn’t let the kids be! Irritating!
They were fine. She’s the one who had a problem.
She felt tied down!
Don’t go there, don’t go here! Sit here, not there... She tortured us Mom!
What if something happens to them? Aren’t they our responsibility?
Don’t act like you bear the whole world on your shoulders!
Saraswathi... please
Yes Dad... She uses the kids as an excuse to behave like a martyr.
If we object, she sulks.
And then she bursts into tears.
Spoilt brat!
She wants everyone to look at her.
She wants everyone to keep applauding her about caring for the kids.
Bloody attention seeker!
Am I an attention seeker?
Yes you are! You’ve been like this since you were a kid. Nothing has changed.
Saras... what is this?
Just look at her... playing the “victim” card. Sheesh... I am going home.
I can’t take it anymore.
Saras... what is this? -Leave it mom... Just forget it.
Come on.
Parvathy... come to eat.
I’m not hungry.
Sumitra has bought an extra pizza for you.
I’ll eat later.
Where is Sis?
The moment she knew we were having pizza, she rushed back.
You’re the one who is taking all of this seriously.
She’s happily eating there.
Hey... families are always this way.
We fight... we make up.
You act like this is unique.
Go freshen up and come to eat.
Shankar... did you have friend called Chander?
Yeah. Of course!
Wasn’t he your friend from college?
He was very good-looking... Why bring him up suddenly?
He spoke to me on the Malaysia Srilanka flight.
I didn’t get who he was at first.
And then he told me he’d seen our wedding picture your friend had.
He wasn’t sure and took a chance and spoke to me.
How did he recognise you looking at an old photo?
I can’t believe it!
One doesn’t forget a beautiful face that easily. Don’t be jealous.
And Chander was always intelligent and sharp.
That is true! We would hang out a lot. And I never knew when he prepped for exams.
But he was a gold medallist!
(Santhanam) You were dumb! -Dad
Maybe he studied when he was at the hostel.
He hardly stayed at the hostel. He was here all the time.
Oh... you’re that close is it?
Yeah
So, what did he say?
He’s met a girl in Malaysia and is getting married in a month at Tirupathi.
Tirupathi?
He said he would definitely visit us when he’s here. -Oh...
Nice -He’s given me his card.
-I'll go and get it. Get it
He was my childhood crush... It’s been so long since we saw him.
Oh really? I’ll call our naval officer and inform him.
Go on Mum...
You all become cheerful when I am not around right?
Hey kiddo... you know Shankar’s friend Chander don’t you?
Which Chander Mom?
Get up
you don’t really remember? Or are you faking?
You’re brother’s old friend.
Her old crush!
He would hang around here all the time.
He was actually the only guy among Shankar’s friends who’s truly unforgettable.
Oh let it go. I don’t remember him.
I think I’ll give him a call. What do you think?
Great idea!
He’s coming here for his wedding. He can very well stay here can’t he?
What do you think? -Yes
He doesn’t have family does he?
Yes. Shall I call him?
OK.
Mom... please take me with you.
We can’t baby
Kids aren’t allowed child.
Your brother and sister are OK with that.
You’re not taking them because they don’t want to come.
I am home alone and bored Dad.
You’re not alone.
Shankar and Saraswathy are here. You can play with them.
They refuse to play with me. Do you know something?
My brother is 14 years older than me.
My sister is 9 years older than me.
My baby girl, who told you all this?
It was sis... you know what she said?
She said they were adults while I was a baby, and they wouldn’t play with me.
And she wondered why you gave birth to me after so many years.
She did, did she? I’ll smack her for this.
Oh don’t do that! She’ll shout for that too.
You take me along. That’s enough. -No kiddo.
What’s your problem? You want a play-mate right?
Come with me.
We were discussing this!
Is there nothing else to talk about?
What’s wrong with that?
We are heading out for a reception.
She’ll be here. Which one of you is going to play with her?
Dad, I’ll take care.
Parvathy go to your room and play.
This is why I told you to take me along. He keeps telling me to go to my room.
Why son?
There she goes!
You always cry and make a scene!
Why don’t you play with me?
Dad!!!!
She’s a kid...
She’s not a baby... She’s an owl.
Why do you bully a kid?
I’ll take care of her Uncle.You carry on.
Thanks Chander.
You like games?
What game do you like?
Let’s play catch.
Shall we?
Come on.
She’s a kid...
Why do you cut your nails in the night?
Did you know that Chander had a crush on me too?
He would try to impress me.
But nothing happened.
You were like a tick, always sticking to us.
I would be so angry with you then.
But he would be so patient with you.
Why have you brought her on a date?
Don’t ask! She put on such a show at home.
“You’re only going for a movie!”
“Why can’t I come too?”
She created such a scene at home and my Mom forced me to bring her along.
Can’t I watch a movie as well?
Why can’t you go with dad and mom?
You’ve ruined my date.
Can’t you leave me alone even for a minute?
What is this Saraswathi? Poor girl.
No way!
We’re only going for a movie... you come along Parvathy.
(Iman)Hey problem solved. You get on.
(Girl) OK
Hold on tight... Or else you’ll fall.
So madam... are you coming? Or shall we leave?
OK I’ll come!
What is this?
You’ve made my favourite sweets!
Careful it is hot!
Chander and his fiancée are visiting, so I decided to make a variety of sweets.
Taste it...
Eat and tell me if it is OK.
Hey Parvathy!
Why are there so many bottles?
Chander is getting married isn’t he?
Don’t we have to give him a toast from our side?
Do it correctly -Did you do this?
That’s good!
When did you take this out?
Chander is coming right?
We used to roam around Madras on this very bike!
Once he comes, I want to take him for a ride. That’s the plan.
And I am so happy to reconnect with him.
Carry on...
But don’t go over-board.
Be careful!
Have fun!
Are you brainless? Biting a paper like that?
Are you a donkey?
Hey Parvathy... it is OK... let it go.
You mustn’t bite paper...
Follow your aunt and make the paper-boat.
I am hungry!
There’s food in the fridge. Eat that.
The music is too loud.
Shut your ears then!
Let mom and dad come back.
I’ll tell them you had a party at home.
If you do that I will kill you!
Why are you so irritating?
Why are you shouting at her?
She’s a kid...
Do you like to dance Paru?
Come on then!
I’m buying myself a sari and a dress!
Me too!
Why don’t we all buy new clothes?
Superb Idea... Let’s go shopping together. Tell me when.
I think we should pick up something new for Chander and his fiancée too.
It will look bad otherwise.
Super
Correct
I’m ready for the party.
I’ve paid an advance for the decorations and serial lights.
The house is going to look bright and cheerful.
Superb. I’ve told my college gang as well.
Everyone’s so happy.
They’ll be here by 8pm.
It’s going to be like old times huh!
Absolutely!
What time do they arrive?
They’ll be here by 4pm.
Good. It will give us time to get ready for the party.
Let’s put up a Tandoor stove outside
I will cook everything myself.
What is this?
Mom... Better to cater the food. You can’t do it all alone
Oh no... Who’s going to do this alone?
What are all of you there for?
Sure... We’ll help.
I can’t help!
What nonsense!
We’ve not been so enthusiastic even for our own family wedding!
You are going over-board for that man!
Are you jealous? -What?
You would follow him around as a kid...
And he’s getting married...
Maybe you’re jealous...
Paru...
Parvathy!
Poor thing! -Why Saras?
All of you laughed too didn’t you?
She hero-worshipped him as a kid.
Don’t mock that!
Come on mom. I was only joking.
She’s the one who’s taken it seriously.
Sulk pot!
What are you doing here?
Sorry for teasing you...
This get-together has brought a spark into our boring, monotonous life.
Don’t think this is only for Chander.
It is for all of us.
A chance to cheer ourselves!
No... I...
This happens to all of us as kids...
I too had a crush on my science teacher in 3rd grade.
Can I get upset if I get teased about it now?
No... Please...
See you’ve brought on the tears.
You’re always this way.
You cry and get your way all the time.
This is why I am scared to even talk to you!
Enough is enough!
I’m going to meet him after so many years...
He was such a good friend...
He was part of our family.
We lost touch along the way.
I want to make the friendship last this time around.
Please don’t be awkward when they come.
Please...
OK...
Come on...
Is the Tandoor Stove ready? -Yes
Is this better?
Auntie has changed 15 times!
You don’t even know how to count till 10...
They’ll be here very soon!
I can’t wait to see him man!
I’m so excited you know!
Been so long... wonder how he looks now? -Smile!
Hey I can hear the gate sound.
Check... I think they’ve come. -Come on...
Come...
The car is here. -I am coming.
Come on.
Welcome!
My friend! How are you man?
Come in...
Hi Uncle!
How are you?
Hi Auntie... this is Kavitha. -Welcome
You’ve brought the rain with you!
Welcome them!
Nothing has changed here has it?
Neither the house nor she have changed.
Very Happy!
Go on in.
Very happy...
Very happy.
Come in. -Come.
Go that side.
Hi...
-What’s your name?
My name is Gita...
Oh what a sweet name!
Hey! Saras...
Hi Chander!
Wow! You haven’t changed a bit!
He’s told me all about you...
Oh... Welcome...
Come...
Sit down...
Is the upstairs room ready?
Yes it is!
Let’s go up then.
Come on mom...
Come on...
Please eat. -It is all home-made.
She’s so proud of her cooking.
Hey Chander, how did you land such a beauty?
Too much!
What did you lie to make her agree?
Can’t fool her! She is a child psychologist!
Wow...
Very nice
Thank you
I’ll make tea for everyone.
Shall I help? -No need.
Hey... Paru...
Hey come here.
Come on...
This is the baby of our family!
Parvathy.
Hi... -Hi Parvathy...
Hello.
Uncle are we ready to party?
I’ve been ready since I heard about your wedding.
Super...
Thank you Uncle.
She’s not like all of you. Very quiet isn’t she?
Oh no
She is quiet only now.
She would follow Chander around as a kid.
She had a big crush on him!
Even now she is sulking because he didn’t say a proper hello!
And you are so beautiful!
Just watch, in some time she’ll burst into tears!
Stop teasing her!
I was only joking!
This house is very beautiful. When was it built?
1951...
But other details only the owner can tell us.
Oh...
But we had a good time here right?
Yeah
How many parties!
We’ve had so much fun!
Absolutely!
In fact, Chander would stay here most of the times.
This house is so close to his heart.
Really? Then I must look around... -Of course!
Come on, I’ll show you around!
No Saraswathi... you’re meeting him after ages.
You have so much to catch up on.
Parvathy... do you mind taking me around?
Of course. That’s such a great idea!
Go on Parvathy. Show her around.
Do you want to right now?
Let’s chat for a bit. I’ll take you around myself.
You have 10 years to catch up on. Relax...
I’ll be back before you’re done.
Paru take her around. -Kids come on.
Come on Parvathy.... Show me the whole place.
(Saras) It’s been 10 years. So much has happened...
The room we came from... That’s the drawing room!
(Indistinct chatting)
(Chander) Shall we dance?
“Run around and play child!”
“You cannot afford to be lazy!”
“Run around and play child!”
Shall we play?
OK!
Hold on tight!
"Play together child!"
That’s the way to the kitchen.
-“Don’t fight with another child”
If we hide here, no one will find us... We'll hide here. "Play together child!"
“Don’t fight with another child”
“Run around and play child!
-What is this room? -My bedroom “You cannot afford to be lazy!”
Where ever you hide, I will always find you!
-“Like a little sparrow,”
I’ll teach you a new game...
But you mustn’t tell anyone!
“Look at the colourful birds”
“And let happiness flow in your heart!”
“Look at the colourful birds”
“And let happiness flow in your heart!”
Paru...
Paru, let’s just play one more time...
No...
You like it!
No I don’t like it!
You mustn’t lie to me!
Don’t you feel sorry for me?
I don’t like it...
I don’t want to...
I can’t do this!
Parvathy... look at me...
Look at me.
Did Chander...???
It is not your fault...
It is not your fault.
The poet Bharathi has said one must practice Anger.
Sometimes it is good to be angry!
And even better to show that anger!
All you need is a little courage!
Come on... come and show your anger where it needs to be shown.
Come on.
I’ll be right beside you!
Come on.
Be bold!
I’m there for you!
This is not your fault.
This does not define you!
Whatever happens...
You have to stay strong!
Stay strong!
Did you look around?
Yes. It was very enlightening.
Good.
Parvathy showed me around the whole place.
And I understood everything clearly.
Can’t you face us Chander?
I know everything.
Parvathy has told me everything.
Kavi, listen...
I don’t know what she’s told you...
Listen to me...
What do you think she said that you’re so tense?
Oh... maybe she told the truth????
Hey... what’s happening? What did you tell her?
I figured what had happened in exactly the 10th minute I was here.
I don’t know what to call all of you who’ve been with her for so many years.
What happened Kavitha?
Is there a problem? We don’t understand. Tell us clearly.
Kavi... please...
Hey... What did you tell her?
Enough!
I’ve had enough of being left alone with him and the suffering!
I’ve had enough of his repeated abuse!
What... -What?
Abuse???
Why do you keep leaving me home alone?
Please don’t!
I’m not leaving you alone! Chander is here.
I don’t like your friends. Don’t bring them here.
Precocious lump! I’ll break your teeth. Go.
Big mouth... Get lost.
She's always complaining.
Please don’t go out with him. I don’t like him. Don’t!
Oh you want him to play only with you is it?
You’re just jealous. Nothing else.
Chander. Come... let’s go.
Dad... Lift me!
Paru, I’ll do it.
No... Dad, only you have to carry me!
Why? I'll lift you.
No... Only he should lift me up! Please come...
You don’t know what you’re saying! Stop blabbering!
Parvathy... be careful. You’re ruining their marriage!
Marriage? The wedding’s been called off long back!
What is this Kavitha?
How dare you insult me?
Calm down man
No wait.
I am not that sort of guy.
How would I come here if I’d done something like that?
Yes... please rethink your decision. She’s a little attention seeking.
Don’t take her too seriously.
Of course. If there’d been a problem she would have told me then.
Oh... would have believed her?
Which child have you ever believed?
Even if the child does confide, you always insult the child.
Do you ever thrash the perpetrator?
That’s why such people have the guts to come back again and again.
Hey... I am sorry. Please calm down.
Uncle, you tell her.
Didn’t I take care of her as a kid?
Chander, I know you.
Calm down man
What are you saying?
You won’t believe your own daughter?
She’s been over-sensitive even as a kid.
Look, she’s making a scene.
No one here is going to believe Chander is bad.
Yes.
OK...
He’s such a good boy you know.
This is exactly...
What?
This is why such people take advantage.
The ones you blindly believe turn out to be the child abusers.
Hey... Just shut up...
OK? Just shut up!
She’s acting.
What?
None of you know her.
Even as a child she was a little odd. -What???
What!!!!
I haven't told you guys before.
Look Parvathi. Look at the way he's talking.
You abused me a lot. Though I pleaded with you.
You are the one who begged me for it!
You shouldn’t be left to live... Die... Die...
You won’t leave a child alone is it? Die...
He’s the one you wanted to celebrate is it?
He says a child asked for it! -“I BEAT HIM TILL MY ANGER DRAINED AWAY!”
“I WONDER HOW MANY MORE KIDS LIVES HE’S RUINED”
“HE WAS SO DISGUSTING THAT HE LIED THAT A CHILD ASKED FOR IT”
“MY FAMILY DIDNT STOP ME”
“THEY WATCHED ME BEAT HIM WITH SHOCK, FEAR, HAPPINESS AND EVEN A LITTLE SATISFACTION”
“IT MAY HAVE BEEN THE GUILT FOR NOT TAKING CARING OF ME WHEN I NEEDED THEM THE MOST”
“When you see someone who commits a heinous crime”
“We mustn’t be afraid child!”
“Attack and stamp on them child!”
“And spit on their faces child!”
“Attack and stamp on them child!”
“And spit on their faces child!”
“When sorrow approaches us”
“We mustn’t crumble child!”
“There is a loving God”
"Who will extinguish the sorrow child!"
“I HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO VENT OUT MY ANGER”
“BUT THERE ARE SO MANY WHO SUFFER IN SILENCE”
“WHAT IF WE GIVE THEM THE COURAGE TO COME OUT AND VENT?”
Thank you for sharing your story with me.
Hat’s off Parvathy.
There are people who blame children even today.
But in those times, when things were worse...
Your father helped hush everything up.
He saw to it that I wasn’t blamed.
He didn’t ask us to move out!
He didn’t embarrass us.
He didn’t judge us...
He was such a gem!
I pray that he gets better soon.
He’s a great man
Doctor!
Tell me
You’re wanted inside.
I have to go now. I’ll see you soon. -Yeah sure.
The patient Ramya is having some trouble.
It is better if you’re there.
Sorry to interrupt...
Ananth!
It’s too late Dad!
It is bloody too late!
I didn’t want to come when you collapsed.
But Ramani forced me to come.
I have set foot into the house I vowed never to.
I thought I’ll let bygones be bygones.
But I’m unable to.
I wonder why my father’s been a good man to everyone except me!
You know? I am trying...
But I’m unable to.
I’m trying to understand dad...
You helped your brother find his true love.
You’ve helped everyone around...
You’ve even helped an older woman unite with a young man...
...without judging them or mocking them....
A man has almost died in the house...
You’ve covered that up and protected the family.
But why couldn’t you do that for Ramu and me?
You can’t bear to even look at me can you?
You are so educated and so full of wisdom...
Why then couldn’t you understand, it wasn’t my fault I was born this way?
Look at me dad!
Look at me!
I’m happy!
I’m loved!
I am successful....
And I lead my own life!
You called me despicable, disgusting and a gutter...
But from that day till today...
Ramu and I have been together...
We have been truly faithful to each other.
Tell me then, are we disgusting?
Or are you, who looks at us the wrong way?
I don’t know what you’ve said to people about me leaving...
But I will not take the blame for mom’s death!
You cannot blame that on me!
I will not accept it.
Do you know what mom told me before she died?
Mom... I am sorry...
Sorry Mom...
No my darling...
I am the one who didn’t understand you...
No Mom...
I love you so much son...
I love you however you are!
Get down... get down...
Get down...
Uncle...
Get in Ramani...
You acted like I had betrayed you...
But in reality, it was you who betrayed me!
You didn’t even care if I was dead or alive!
You threw an innocent 20 year old boy on to the streets!
Dad...
Dad???
Sister!
Dad!
Sir you have to stay out sir!
Sir please wait outside!
Get him ready for defibrillation...!
Yes Doctor!
