You are the quest Of a wandering heart
You are a drug that Gets into my soul
You are the length Of a continued silence
Why did you come here? Go home at once!
No, I won't!
Do you think you can throw me away from your life like a piece of trash?
Don't talk like an idiot, Viji!
You have no idea what's about to happen here!
Viji… please listen! It's not safe here.
Please get out of here!
Why do you part quickly?
Why did the search Of the fantasy of our love
Become a conflict and disappear?
The love, as fragile as glass Threw a stone into my eyes
It morphed into poison And imprisoned my heart
The love, as fragile as glass, Threw a stone into my eyes
It morphed into poison
- And imprisoned my heart - I'll come in five minutes, ma'am.
Sorry, sir!
Rishi!
Viji!
Get out of here!
Hey!
Viji!
Will the false images shown by the heart Break in front of the eyes?
Will time solve this clueless puzzle?
As the depth of eerie silence Echoes all over
Will this wild run after the shadows In the dark, stop?
Will the unresolved legends Unearth the truth
And the apparitions Of the mystery die away?
- Hey! - Hi!
- When did you arrive? - In the earlier bus.
Why?
I wanted to see how you'd react if I didn't come.
Alright…
Why trouble yourself? I would have come in a cab by myself.
Why? Are you afraid to come with me on the bike?
I'm very scared of cops.
Is that so? Fine!
Hey, dear friend
Come closer to me
Hey, dear friend
Shall I dissolve in you, my beautiful?
With your intoxicating eyes Don't flood me with your love
I say that I am overwhelmed, But your love fills me again…
Not just that, Auntie. We both danced in our College Cultural.
Wearing glitter makeup and colorful flashy costumes…
that day was super fun!
What were we thinking?
Why bring up that embarrassing stuff now?
Hey, it was so much fun back then.
Come, let's show them the dance steps.
No! No! Mom! Mom!
- Come! - Just go and dance.
Hira!
What's the gift?
- What's in it? - Take a look.
Wind chimes?
It's so pretty!
Looks like it's very delicate.
It is.
So, take care of it.
Or else it'll break.
Shall I hang it somewhere and see?
With your intoxicating eyes Don't flood me with your love
I say that I am overwhelmed
- But your love fills me again - It looks beautiful…
- I too got you something. - What is it?
I didn't have the time to wrap the gift. Sorry!
- Hey… a sari? - Do you like it?
I've never worn a sari before!
Really?
Then, let's drape it on you now.
- Now? - Yes! Come on, come on.
Hey, dear friend
Come closer to me
My fingers reach out to yours And embrace them
My heart pounds with each Moment of closeness with you
As the veil that covered me Slowly drops
My sweetest dreams are coming true
I have been alone all these days
But it’s not enough Come and fill the void
Hey, dear friend
Your presence enchants me
Hey, dear friend…
Let me collapse in you, my beautiful
Told you, right? You look cute in this.
Hira…
What was that?
Hira, I thought you…
and I… we…
Sorry.
Yamuna.
Won't you talk to me today either?
Fine, Yamuna.
I won't trouble you any longer.
I won't call you and bother you anymore.
If you decide to part ways,
then I shall sign wherever you tell me to.
Sir, please take the tea.
- Brother, get me a ginger tea. - Sure.
Did you inquire about Mangai?
It's true that she is performing in a dance-drama.
People in the theater group confirmed it.
What about that woman in the camera trap video?
I asked her about it.
She swears that it's not her in that video.
She says that she never stepped out of her house that night.
Did she say that she was at her home, alone?
Which means, there's no one to corroborate that.
As far as we are concerned, Mangai is still a suspect.
Tell me, Sathya.
- Hello! - Hello!
Hello! Can you hear me?
Yes, I can hear you, Sathya.
Sorry to bother you.
Is Kathy back at the guest house?
I don't know.
Today morning, she said she was called for some other work.
Why? What happened?
She and another guard were supposed to report to the office after their shift.
But they haven't returned yet.
We are unable to reach them.
She told me that she was going to the Chinnamalai area.
We checked there. Seems they left the place a while ago.
A few people saw them near the Periyakuzhi area.
So we came here to check but they are not here.
- Where are you now? - Near Periyakuzhi watchtower.
Okay.
Kathy!
Nalini!
Kathy!
Nalini!
Kathy!
Sir!
She is breathing, sir.
Control room. We found Guard Nalini.
We need a medic. Half a kilometer east of the Periyakuzhi watchtower.
- Over. - Okay, sir. Over.
Looks like Kathy has started dreaming about her boyfriend.
You know who? It's that handsome one-eyed Inspector.
Hey, Nalini! Stop it! Give me my phone.
Then answer my question first.
Does he smile when he casually looks at you?
How do you feel when he doesn't take his eyes off you?
Does it feel like bolts of electricity passing through your body?
See that? Kathy has started applying eyeliner and lipstick.
Hey! Shut up! I am not wearing any lipstick!
I am going to send this video to the inspector!
Oh, no! Please don't!
Don't embarrass me! Give me back my phone!
I am definitely going to send this to him!
Hey! No, I will kill you.
Nalini!
What was that sound?
Nalini! Wait!
What?
Nalini! Wake up!
Nalini!
Kathy!
Rishi, I'll go that way and you go this way.
Don't go too far. Come back to this same spot in ten minutes.
Okay!
Kathy!
Kathy?
Kathy!
Hey, Kathy! Wake up!
Kathy, wake up!
Kathy, open your eyes. Kathy, please!
Kathy! Relax! Relax, hey!
Look at me!
Kathy! Kathy! Kathy! Look at me. Look at my face.
Look at me. It's me, Rishi. Rishi!
Kathy, relax.
It's me. It's me. It's me. Rishi!
Look at me. Look at me. I am here.
It's okay. It's okay.
It's okay.
Relax.
You're safe. I got you.
I am here.
One thing is very clear.
This is definitely not Mangai but someone else.
Because Mangai is still in our custody.
Is the face clearly visible?
No, it's too dark and grainy.
She seems fine now, physically.
She refused to take an injection.
I've given some pills for her to relax and sleep.
- Ask her to at least take that. - I'll tell her, doctor. Thank you.
If possible, we must talk to Kathy right away…
and find out if she remembers the kidnappers who abducted her.
If she is able to identify them…
Excuse me.
Okay, I'll come.
We had reported to the station about this.
DFO is on the way to our office.
I've been asked to come there immediately.
- Sure. Go ahead. - Okay.
- I'll talk to Kathy. - I'll call you in the morning.
Sir…
I've sent the video to Chitra.
I asked if she could reduce the grains
and try to get a clear picture of the kidnapper's face.
Good.
- Tell me if you find anything. - Sure, sir.
Why did you refuse the injection?
It's just to relax you and help you sleep.
No.
I am too scared to even close my eyes.
I am sorry.
But it's better that I ask you about this when your memory is still fresh.
I hope that's okay.
Tell me what happened from the beginning.
Nalini and I…
were waiting for the night shift guards,
near the watch tower.
That crazy girl…
was playing around with my phone.
At first…
we heard a very strange howling sound.
That itself freaked us out.
And then…
Nalini saw something and screamed.
She started running frantically.
I ran after her.
She tripped over something and fell down.
I rushed and checked on her.
She was unconscious.
That's when…
suddenly…
I felt someone grab me from behind and pull me away.
I think I passed out after that.
I don't remember how I got to that tree.
The strong scent of the oleander flowers woke me up.
When I opened my eyes,
I saw her face…
in front of my face.
It was very close to me.
With her gory fangs,
she snarled at me.
I thought she'd kill me right there.
But I guess I passed out again.
Jesus Christ!
It was the Lord who sent you to me at the right time.
You must be thinking that I'm rambling like a mad person, right?
Nothing of that sort.
You are in shock.
You're scared and confused.
Your mind is tricking you.
This is not real, Kathy.
I'm not a fool!
When someone says that they saw a ghost or a spirit,
I know how it sounds to other people.
But…
I wanted to tell you what happened, without hiding anything.
It's because I thought you'd understand.
Because…
you've seen things too, right?
Even today, near that lake…
you looked right past me as if there was someone there.
- Go away from here. - What?
Whom do you see?
- If you don't want to tell me-- - Viji.
My fiance.
When he came, this guy went right up to him.
He is trying to tell a joke!
Yes, next time I will inform you before I leave.
Rishi.
Sir.
Meet my daughter, Viji.
- Nice to meet you. - Hello.
She was a photographer.
Very talented.
She was smart, sweet, and friendly.
This is one of my favorite pictures.
Hey, you have a nice face.
May I take photos of you?
We started meeting often.
We used to speak for hours, losing track of time.
I was falling in love.
I can remember the exact moment
when I fell in love with her.
All of a sudden, nothing else in my life mattered.
I felt nothing was more important…
except for her.
You know…
when you're in love…
during the first few months…
nothing will be clear to us.
Our feelings will engulf our minds like fog.
The overwhelming love that we have for someone blinds us,
and we miss noticing
some things that are right in front of us.
But one day,
that fog will start to clear.
What do you want to talk about?
How was your day?
It was okay.
Anything interesting?
Nothing much.
Hey, Rishi! Where have you been?
Hi!
- Hey, hi! - Hi.
I haven't seen you since the engagement.
Viji was… extremely insecure… possessive.
She was always worried that she might lose me to somebody else.
She couldn't trust me completely.
- Are you serious? - I am serious! Yes.
She used to read my phone messages without my knowledge.
She wanted to know who I was talking to on the phone,
when, where, and who I was with at all times.
- Who is this? - It's not a personal message.
- Really? - Give me my phone!
If you're not doing anything wrong, then tell me!
- Do you not believe me? - What are you hiding from me?
I'm not hiding anything!
But the nature of my work didn't allow me to be open with her.
I could not share most of the things with her.
And she couldn't understand this either.
Out with the truth! You very well know the person behind it!
I don't know, sir!
Twelve missed calls?!
- Back-to-back 12 missed calls! - Why didn't you answer the first call?
We started fighting a lot.
It's over, Viji!
I decided to end the relationship.
But…
Rishi…
Rishi, I didn't mean to hit you.
I'm sorry. Rishi, please. I'm sorry!
Rishi, I seriously didn't mean to hurt you.
Rishi, you know I never want to hurt you.
Please, forgive me. It was a mistake.
Please, Rishi.
- It's over. - I cannot live without you, Rishi.
- Just leave me. - Please!
Rishi, don't say it's over! Please, please!
- Just leave. - No, don't say it's over, Rishi.
Please look at me. Rishi, look at me.
Talk to me, Rishi!
Please, Rishi, look at me.
- Look at me, please. - Viji!
Rishi! Rishi, please!
- Get off me. You leave from here! - Rishi!
- Rishi, no! - Go away from here.
Rishi, you hit me. You slap me back! Please!
Just leave. Get out of here! I don't want to see your face!
Hey, Viji!
Shit! Are you nuts? What is this madness?
Have you completely lost it?
I'm sorry, Rishi.
I am sorry, Rishi.
I'm sorry, Rishi.
I am so sorry.
Rishi, you've forgiven me, right?
Tell me that you've forgiven me, Rishi.
Rishi.
Please tell me that you've forgiven me, Rishi.
Our relationship… it was an emotional roller-coaster.
There wouldn't be any fights for a few days.
Then it will start all over again.
Day by day our fights were getting worse.
One night she came to meet me.
- Rishi! - Viji!
Viji!
Everyone kept telling me that Viji was dead.
But I couldn't believe it.
I couldn't accept it.
No, she is not dead. She's alive!
Look! She is standing right there!
Rishi, please!
- Rishi - No! She is not dead! She's alive!
Look! Viji is standing right there!
- Viji is not dead. - What's he saying?
What are you saying?
Look there! Can't you see?
Viji! No!
Rishi, listen to us.
Rishi, calm down.
I took therapy for a few days.
What you are seeing is a hallucination.
Your mind is unable to accept the loss.
Which is why this is happening.
Viji is indeed no more, Rishi.
- I'm frozen, I'm broke - You can't be living in denial.
- Both the states give immense pain - Only if you accept this fact,
you can start recovering.
Should I live on in this frozen state?
Should I break down and get lost?
All the pain is buried
Deep inside me like fossils
Even the sun's rays seem
To tear through my soul
No consolation can reach this darkness
I want to lose myself In the embrace of loneliness
The reason why I am telling you all this is…
Our brain is capable of intense imagination.
Even when we see something that isn't actually there,
it still makes us believe that it is real.
But it's all an illusion.
This Vanaratchi story is also just another drama, Kathy.
The killers are very smartly trying to fool us all.
Let's not fall for it.
Thulasi.
Thulasi?
Where did she go?
Thulasi? Dear?
Where would she go now?
Thulasi?
Thulasi.
The door is locked.
Where would she be?
Dear?
Dear!
Oh, my God!
