A bit more

Rathnakar shastry's daughter-in-law is
coming from Mysore -Okay sir!
Send someone to pick her up!
Alright sir, I will go
Have your breakfast!,

Have your breakfast!
Huh
Sir! They're calling you
Hey! You're not ready yet?
How long will it take?
TCH! - PSST!
Come here for two minutes
Why?
Hm
Swa...
Swapna
All the best
Thank you, same to you
Come on sathya
Sir I will be there in two minutes
Hello
Hello Apoorva
Yes sir tell me
Excuse me for a minute
I Know Basic Editing.
Do you have any idea about After effects?
I am not well versed in After effects
Um...
...Will you work full time?
Uhmm! No sir, I'm only up for part time!
Consider working full time!
We shall pay you well!
Um...
It's...
...I have to clear the exams
Um...
Working full time will be a bit difficult sir
I would recommend working full time
for your own benefit!
[SOUNDS CRACKLING] Do you own a system?
What sir?
Do you own a system?
Own system?
No sir
[SOUNDS CRACKLING] It is not possible without a
system Apoorva!
Sir you are not audible
Hello...
I said it's not possible
without own system
Okay, it's okay
- Better luck next time
- Okay sir
Alright
Okay
-Thank you
-Huh
[HUMMING SONG]
I will kill my father, he said!
Apoorva
How are you?
How is Yashoda doing?
- On hearing that, I fled!
- Sir?!
[IN UNISON] Is it?
I had asked about your mother
I didn't recognise you!
[SOFT CHUCKLE]
Go and tell her...
...that her husband is not dead
Who are you?
[SOFT CHUCKLE]
I'm the one you need the most!
How do you know about my mom?
I will tell you at the right moment
Your leg is bleeding
Wipe it
Sir
Brother
Sir
Fate rules us
Brother a property is missing
Nothing can be predetermined
Come quickly, the director is on fire
Huh!
So why should anyone fear it?
In the blink of an eye, everything had happened!
If I hadn't met the oldie in green room...
Everything might have been fine!
I don't know
I started hunting answers for the questions formed in there!
More questions were awaiting me further!
The first question...
...who was he?
Your grandpa
You might have been
pranked by one of our boys!
Haven't they fooled us to believe that
my uncle knew about us, by sending Ram uncle previously?
Is this new for you?
Tch!
Swapna, there's no way it could be a prank!
I haven't seen him anywhere, previously!
You take petty things seriously
Hey
Did I perform well today?
Did anyone, by chance, notice my stutter
during the monologue?
Nope
Swapna
If you don't mind?
Will you come for two minutes?
My parents are here...
- Thought of introducing you to them!
- Huh... Okay
- Alright come
- Wait a minute
- Hello
- Hello dear
That Jerk Satya was
introducing you to his parents, what was that all about?
Hold it dude
...What's that about?
Why you get so irked up on him Appu?
That was just a casual introduction
I find his behaviour weird now a days!
There's nothing else right?
Having a right viewpoint
will make everything right
Woah!
I was not aware
Thanks madam
I will amend my ill thought
Don't you have any other job
apart from being jealous and doubtful?
Yes dear
I don't have a job
Concern is diminishing
I haven't cleared the exams
There is neither any money, asset nor influence.
You have no worries
You have a chunk of land amid the city
You have a car, a vehicle, and a secured job
I don't even own a place good for my grave!
My status...
...hm-hmm...
...Does not match
Isn't it?
If I ever considered liking you
based on your status, I had too many options!
Huh! I have seen your options
Take it
I think this is lacking a bit of salt!
You always find flaws
with everything made by me right?
You're not satisfied with anything of me!
Isn't it?
Hey fool
What did say to micky?
That I am a Hamsalekha fan and
I do not understand modern day love!
Am I an old school?
Hamsalekha has given
a lot of hits to Ravichandran movies
Mind it
What do you mean?
Huh!
I had told you about a channel run by Ba Ravi.
He's looking for people to write articles.
I have sent his office address
Go and check it out
Thanks dude
I hope I will find a job soon, Swapna!
Sappe
Hm
Will you lend me two thousand rupees?
I will repay you soon.
Alright
Send yourself a thousand now!
I will send one more tomorrow morning.
Is that fine?
Hm
I have your costume bag; I'll give it to you
tomorrow. Is that okay?
Also, my parents were overwhelmed to
see you perform
Thanks sweetie
[HUMMING SONG]
Clear the exams at least this time
Time is slipping away Appu!
A delay will in time will lead to parental pressure
I
I will kill my father, he said!
On hearing that, I fled!
Apoorva
How is Yashoda?
How do you know about mom?
Tell her...
...That her husband is not dead yet!
Who are you?
Sir it's Apoorva
It's not Apoorn
Poorva (East)
Eastern direction
Yeah got it
Huh
There will be a training of three days
Then you can work remotely
You can go now
Sir
It's...
...what will be the pay?
We shall pay you ten thousand for now!
Let's see further
You may leave
Sir
You say it's four articles a day
It would have been helpful if
you can pay me fifteen at least!
This is a new company Apoorva
Initially, you support
is pretty important!
We will consider it in the futures
Appu, I would suggest you to
join this company as
you would have a regular income
You can later work as freelance
editor on the projects you get!
Let's see
Let him call
Come near the office at
four thirty in the evening
There will be a review of yesterday's play
We can leave early
Hm?
Hm
[INDISTINCT CHATTER]
Sir
- Has the book arrived?
- Yes It has!
- What's the bill?
- It's five hundred rupees
- Five hundred?
- Yes Five hundred rupees
Um...
This is enough for now!
- Why?
- Next time...
...amount...
Okay
[INDISTINCT CHATTER]
Boss
Huh!
Money?
Huh
There was an old man in the
greenroom at yesterday's show.
Tell your mother...
...he spoke weirdly that
her husband is alive
Brother, have you lost your father?
His father left him when he was five
And he has not returned yet!
That's a different issue
I will narrate it in the next drink meet
You tell me dude
I saw the same oldie when
I went to shop for the book
He vanished just before
I could reach out to him!
I have a weird feeling about this!
Yo dude
Could someone be following me?
Bro
Which English movie did you watch last night?
Eat
It is obvious that an undercover
agent is following you!
He will thrash the hell out of you
[LAUGHS]
He will make you sit
in your inners at the police station!
Damn you guys
I am being quite serious here!
Shut up! Why would someone follow you?
Damn him!
Damn you guys
"We extend our salutations to you,
our esteemed people! (audience)"

during the course of the play."

Micky and Micheal...
are united again!
So to swapna who bridged their love...
...a silk chocolate from Micheal
We will not fight again Swapna
Its true love this time around!
I will definitely marry her
Hey!
Damn you!
Where's my chocolate?!
Haven't I supported you love story?
I have only one,
you guys can share it
That's not possible dude
I need an entire one
Let's do one thing Appu
You both stare each other in the eyes
The one who doesn't blink...
...We will give the chocolate to them
Hey kiddo!
Go and look after your business
Hey!
- That's a good idea
- That's right
I am ready dude
Let's see...
...who has more potential!
Yes... Yes
Hey it's not possible
-Come on dude
-I can't play child's game
Hey dude
Come on dude
Come dude
Please don't
Hey, do not worry! We shall see!
Sit down
"In the realm of closed eyes,
The woods are our sanctuary,"
"A hefty filled burlap sack rolls
and tumbles downward"
"Our bird, your bird,
has been set free."
[IN UNISON] Your time starts now
"Oh love!"
"Please give me your attention"
"Your eyes have caused me to forget the world."
[INDISTINCT CHEERS]
"Speechless Exhilaration"
"At the edge of the eye, like poetic eye drops."
Damn! Why did you blink?
That's awesome pal, you have won
You could have done it
You have won
Appu you have won
You may close your eyes
Bro!
The chocolate
Hello
I played my part too!
Appu bro
Bro
What happened?
What dude?
[GIGGLES]
Apoorn, I have seen your articles
You have a solid grip
Apoorn do one thing...
As we're off to Udupi for a documentary shoot,
... you can join us from next week!
Alright sir
Thank you so much sir
Here he arrived
He is our Gopal Master!
Once upon a time...
...he was an acclaimed author
He was great at his thriller series!
But I don't know...
...Suddenly, he stopped everything
He roams wildly
He always stays alone
He wanders with books on his bicycle
He gives his books to the readers for free
He don't have any home or family
No one knows his background!
He offers help to the plays happening in and around the city
That too, without asking for a pay!
Food and shelter is enough
He doesn't speak
He argues that words will not aid here
He doesn't wear any footwear recognising the disparity!
You will get to know him better as the time passes!
You will see
He will be with us for the show!
Ain't he a crazy guy?
He doesn't have any commitments or wishes
Has no worries about the future
[SCOFFS]
Would you have accepted if
I had been the same?
This feels good just to express!
This is called madness
What about his family?
[SCOFFS]
Hey Sappe
I got a job
They asked me to join from next week
It's a good news Appu
Primarily let's shop
for couple of shirts for you
You wear the same shirt
every time you go out
Mom
I got a job
They said to join from next week
May god bless you son
[GASPS] Slowly Devaiyya
What happened?
Now a days my legs ache a lot Appu
Devaiyya is massaging my feet
Ratna
Son got a job in Bangalore
Sweet treat is nothing
I will offer a meat feast
Appu will you visit for the festival?
Appu?
Huh!
Huh
I will not get a leave
in the training period
Have you dined?
I have to eat
Ratna
Keep aside the new clothes
Appu wait a minute
I will call you back
Okay
Alright, bye
Who is it?
Apoorva
[PANTS]
Damn!
Who on earth asked you to dry your
underwear on a gas stove?
Yo
It was wet so I was just drying it
Your burnt underwear is going viral on WhatsApp
Shall I make it a trend on twitter?
#blackunderwear
Hey shut up and walk
Hello
The baby has burnt his undie
Hey!
- I will go get the book
- Okay
Huh
Sir
Stop
Sir hold on
Sir
Apoorva, following me is not worth it!
You cannot get hold of me now
I am not...
...you are the one who is following me
How do you know my name and my mother's?
I will tell you everything when we meet again
Do not waste your time following me until then!
I will not leave until
my questions are answered
Why are you following me?
What do you want?
I need a bit of time Apoorva
- Now you leave...
- Sir I can't get it
Please say something and leave!
Hello
Where the hell are you?
[KANNADA FOLKLORE]
You did not listen to me the last time
I am going nuts!
I see that oldie where ever I go
Tch!
What are you talking?
Are you well?
Yes brother
How is your mother doing?
Brother! Why are you leaving now?
There seems to be a delay in MLA's visit.
Take it
I have given the vehicle to Satisha
Take it
Won't you come tonight?
Nope
You will enjoy a lot then
Where's mom?
She's near the temple
Ladies left already
Alright
Let's go everyone! Its time
- Alright brother.
- Coming
Hey get up you idiots
What's your problem dude?
Tch!
I am so worried!
I went to close the windows
as it was raining!
Hm
I saw my look alike outside!
Tch!
He disappeared in a moment
Damnit!
We can call that an illusion
But this oldie
This oldie is not an illusion dude
I spoke with him today.
Something is fishy dude
My heart is not at peace
Who on earth will follow you?
You always mind your own business!
Shall I file a police complaint?
They'll laugh at you
if you say that an old man follows you.
Dude
This cannot be solved.
There's no one at my place.
Let us have a cocktail party with few experts!
Everything will be cleared
What do you say?
Damn you!
Tch!
Hello
Meet me today evening by four
There's not much work at the office
We can meet early
Alright
Then, I have to show you something
It's a very special thing
My mother had never mentioned anything about it!
What is it?
Hey idiot...
When we meet up!
It's a surprise
Alright ma'am is here, bye
Bye
Dude
You haven't told anything to Swapna
about the old man! Have you?
Don't tell her dude
She'll get worried
[EXHALES DEEPLY]
[KANNADA FOLKLORE]
Hey!
Who the hell is he man?
Damn!
Mother goddess has come!
Mother has come
Offer something to mother
Hey leave
Offer 101 bucks.
Mother goddess is on her way to the mountain!
- I told you I do not have any money!
- Don't say that
There will be a curse
Your shadow will ruin you
- Your shadow will ruin you
- I will bless you
Give it son
- My mother will bless you,
give it son. - Hey!
Are you blackmailing me
in the name of god?
Get lost
Your shadow will ruin you
Damn!
Your shadow will ruin you
- Don't deny it son, her curse
will not leave you. - Hey!
Tch!
Damn it!
Crap!
Michael!
Where is Kitty?
Bro wait he's
washing the vehicle
Wait a minute! I will give the call to him!
Hello
Dude where are you?
Hey get lost!
Hello
Dude I need the vehicle immediately
Where are you?
Sathisha has taken the vehicle to
Arrange money for the cocktail party
What's the matter?
Um...
Tch!
Are there no rehearsals today?
Hey dude
Did you not see the message in the group?
Sir has been to Heggodu.
Hence the rehearsals stand cancelled
Damn!
[SCREAMS SHARPLY]
Damnit!
Are things I see, really happening in this world?
Or am I able to see things
happening only in my world?
I don't know that
Yet, the first question remains unanswered!
However, the second question stands
right in front of me!
What's happening to me?
Hey!
[SINGING] Jai Jai Ram Sita Ram
[SCREAMS SHARPLY]
[SCREAMS SHARPLY]
Mom how's the leg pain?
Devaiyaa took me to the hospital Appu
I have been prescribed some medicines
Next week I have to visit again
"sugar level has been increased" they said
Appu, did you eat?
Appu
Appu, did you eat?
Appu, are you there?
Hello!
Shhh!!
Sss... Shit!!
Appu
What did you feel
about me asking time!
I was pretty confirmed that you loved me too!
Confirm?
Don't blabber
Tch!
Don't I know about you?
If you hadn't liked me...
...then you would had denied me of love!
When you asked for time...
I was 90 percent sure that you would agree!
Swapna
Thanks dear
This was one of the best days
in our relationship
It will be remembered forever
You never spoke to me this candidly?
I know it will be too cheesy
But today It brought back
the memories of our first date!
You were holding my hand for the first time
You correcting my hairs
Our first hug and kiss
I recalled everything
I don't know why
but I feel like crying
Please don't let me go Appu!!
Everything will be fine
You will settle soon
I trust you
Why have you called me
this early in the morning?
Are you not over yesterday night yet?
Swapna come to my room immediately
I have something important to discuss with you
But I need to be in the office
Any how we will be
meeting in the evening right?
We'll talk.
Swapna it's really important
Don't give me reasons
Come, Please!!
Please
At least tell me what's up
Am I not trying to tell its important?
Understand
That's it, you have to be here
It's difficult for me to come suddenly
Please try to understand, I have work
Swapna
Tch!
Alright! I will come!
What do you mean that's not
you whom I met yesterday?
We had such a great time
After a very long time it was
such a joy you know
But now you are stating something else
Sappe, Im not lying!
I was at home, yesterday
Actually...
...I saw you both together near your office
I tried calling you many times!
It ringed for the first time
Then it was switched off!
Stop kidding Appu
Did you make me skip office
to tell this?
Slack!
Why should I lie?
I saw him dropping you at the corner of the road
standing on my terrace!
I tried to follow him too
Damn! But he escaped!
Okay
Let's assume that there's
another guy like you...
How will he know about our personal stuff!
That too, so accurately!
I am not able to understand too!
When I saw yesterday's video
...I screwed up
Till today...
...I assumed him to be my illusion
But it's very clear
Both old man and him are
...doing something with my life!
Have you gone mad Appu,
Seriously
Am I mad for speaking truth?
No one is understanding my problem
I am not being acknowledged
by the girl I am in love with
...How should I make others understand!
You're not talking logic here!
Yeah! Because Im an unemployed right
Hence I am passing time with lies
You're pretty busy with life! Aren't you?
Go mind your own business!
Tch!
Yesterday, you behaved so well.
What happened to you suddenly?
Yesterday I was not the one with you
I haven't met you yesterday
This is getting really irritating Appu
That's right
I am an irritation to everyone
There's no sense in talking to me! Is it?
Why are you still standing here?
Leave
I will find my own solutions to the problems I have!
Alright I will leave
The door is open
There's no necessary to repeat it again and again
Non-sense
Sorry Swapna
Sorry
Sorry!
Hey!
Sorry!
I am not able to understand on what's happening around!
[WEEPS]
Sorry
I am speaking weird
Sorry
Hey calm down
Come on! don't cry, wipe your tears.
There's something weird happening
from past two to three days!
Freshen up!
[SOBING]
Sir
Hm
[Greetings]
Hello
Who are you?
Sir my name is Arivu
I am from Mysuru
Arivu?
You have a nice name!
Thank you
What is it?
I found out about Ratnakar Shastry's
seminar at Kuvempu kalabhavan
Hence I have come
They asked me to wait here to catch a bus
and there's no sign of it for an hour
Gopal! Do we still have time?
The roads aren't good either!
It will take around half an hour
That's fine Mr. Shastry,
we can go
Mr.Shastry...
He is Arivu
He's here from Mysuru
To listen to you
Hello sir
Huh-uh
Shall we take him along too?
He might arrive after your speech if keeps waiting for a bus!
You need someone to talk to while travelling.
Alright
Come on
Hop in
Come
Thank you sir
I never expected this encounter
with you sir!
I am pretty happy
Sorry what is your name?
It's Arivu
Arivu
Nice name
What do you do in Mysuru?
I own a business sir
I have a huge interest in art, literature and history!
I am here after reading your book
on Amoghavarsha
I am happy that you have come
In the times where history is forgotten
...it's good to see that you have
come so far for history
"A hundred questions concealed within the eyes."
"Pursuing the bird that has flown from the nest."
"A journey far down the memory lane."
"Pay heed to the call of the dream."
"Time won't pause during the journey."
"What distant shores beckon, O sailor of fate?"
"A soul, fearing the tomorrow's wait,
with a concealed lightning as a guardian harbouring within."
"The path has beckoned you."
I am really happy to meet you and sir
"The unseen shore calls out to you..."
Thank you
"The unseen shore calls out to you..."
Gopal I will take a leave now
"The unseen shore calls out to you..."
You could have come home
for just ten minutes
I have told my wife to cook for you
My friend is the principal at Vivekananda college
I had already promised him that I would join him for lunch!
There will be havoc if I don't go there!
I will make a move, please forgive me
If you don't come then
disaster will strike in my house too
Do one thing
Take this boy
He has come afar!
Rather than eating at a restaurant...
...let him dine at your house
"Like a cloud drifting in the sky."
"A journey knowing no bounds."
"The mind that bestows love,
has now embraced this moment."
"Continuing beyond the crossroads"
"your path persists in its own way."
"Crossing the boundaries of questions,"
"and the manner in which you await answers."
"A new horizon awaits the dawn of tomorrow."
"Today belongs to you."
"A life that never sips the cup of defeat is solely yours."
"Your journey belongs to you; your path is yours alone."
"A hundred questions concealed within the eyes."
Arivu
This is...
...a weapon from the British Era!
Hey it's sharp!
I have a wish...
...to collect the Srinrangapatna
general's sword
But I am low on finances
[CHUCKLES]
That's a coin from Vijayanagara's period
If you can see further,
...There's a silver coin from the Nizam's era too!
I have invested half of my earnings
You know I like history man
An incident occurred in
the Chalukya's period
Once...
...He lost all his monthly earnings
...while trying to buy an urn!
[GIGGLES]
Our luck is that he didn't
let us go hungry!
Sister-in-law
It's not a normal urn Sister-in-law
The money he paid is less compared
to its historical value.
Even I like to collect coins
Even I have some coins
from Rashtrakuta's period
Awesome!
Arivu do you have to leave today
Why?
There's a guy called Kallaiyya...
...He owns a coin library!
There are a lot of collections!
I wanted to take you there
On the 24th,
...at the same time!
...from our team...
...We will be putting up a show at Mumbai Kannada Sangha!
[HOOTS IN UNION]
Yo dude
I will be here by eight in the morning!
There's some props in our old godown,
we shall get it
-Hm
-Apoorva
Huh
Some random professor gave this letter to me
Hm
He has some small editing project
It's a two-month work.
He will pay 30-40 thousand rupees a month
Visit them early in the morning
While you were searching
for part time work
I had asked a few about the part time work!
They must have recommended for the same!
Arivu
Sir
- Rain doesn't like, you searching history
- Take it dear
Huh
Take it
Rain will not come in Rayadurga...
...it won't stop if it rains
Anyhow It's raining heavily!
...he can stay here tonight
Alas! please don't...
-Ah yes
-He can leave after breakfast!
- You stay tonight and leave
in the morning. - That's right pal
Do one thing...
...after breakfast we can
visit Kalaiyya's house
I will drop you off from there
-Yes
-What time is the train?
It's eleven-eleven fifteen
Eleven-fifteen!
I will drop you off
I know only basic editing
They are offering 30-40 thousand!
They must be having great expectations
considering their offer!
You don't assume everything Appu
Has the company called you yet?
They said they might call the
day after tomorrow!
You visit once
If it works out then
You can earn ten months' worth of
money in two months!
Then you can focus on
studies without any worries
Hm?
Hm
May I come in?
Oh Devaki
Come in
Brother told me to give this to you
Alright
It's okay if you're comfortable
sleeping in pants!
Which book is it?
Um...
Oh it's Shikari [Hunt]
Even I like Chittala's writing
Have you started now reading it?
No I have read it
I was glancing at it as it was there!
Oh
What are you doing?
Currently I am helping sis-in-law
in tailoring work
Um...
Even I wish to write stories
and novels like my brother
But what to do...
...My creativity dies just on the second page
... when I start writing!
[BOTH CHUCKLES]
I wish to act in movies and play's too
But I am scared
Brother recommends me to study further
But I don't feel interested
Have to do further planning
I just roam without purpose
Pity that my brother has to
feed me with his meagre earning
- I heard that you're form Mysore!
- Yes I am
We had been to Dasara last time around,
There was a huge crowd
Couldn't see anything properly
Come this time
- You guys can stay at my house
- Definitely I will come
I like this Jambu Savari...
...this police parade...
...this Mushtikaalaga...
...also the bike stunt...
Aww... I just wish to see all those
Oh!
Hey, thank you
Where do you want to go?
Basavanagudi
Is it?
Then do one thing
- You take the Omni.
- Hm
- The two-wheeler might
be required here. - Hm
- I have to travel the same route
in the noon. - Hm
We shall go to the market
Alright
Give it to him
Be careful
Close the door and go
Alright
What?
Hm
Will you drive?
Yes, hop in
Brother and sis-in-law had to leave on work!
Now we both have to go
If it's far you can tell me, I will drive
No issues
I am a good driver
Hm
Hey!
Apoorva
Calm down Apoorva
It might be an illusion
Apoorva
I am not your illusion
I am here
I am beside you
Don't go to that editing job
for the sake of money Apoorva
It's a trap
It's a trap...
Who the hell are you?!
Please
Please listen to me
Please...
[GASPS]
- This is his house
- Huh
I'm coming
Apoorva
Here
I was the one who gave that letter
I am the Kannada professor
That you're looking for!
Come
Come in
- Let's sit and talk!
- Come
That's fine Kallaiyya
Huh, have a seat
There are a couple of coins in this!
- Have a look
- Huh
Thank you
Since how long are you
collecting the coins?
Since few days sir!
Huh
Where are you from?
Mysuru sir!
Where are you from?
It's Mysuru sir
Where are you from?
How many times
will you ask Kallaiyya
He said that he is from Mysuru
But
Where in Mysuru?
It's Kuvempu Nagara sir
[HICCUPS]
Dad water
Dad I want water
[HICCUPS]
I will be back in a minute
I will get it daughter
Why are you looking at like that?
This is my friend's place
He's pretty into the movies
Who are you?
Hey!
Taste it before its cold!
Why are you following me?
Is Swapna well?
How is Yashoda?
Is her leg pain fine?
That's none of your business
What do you want from me?
I had told you that day
... about me meeting you when the time comes!
Now that Time has come! Apoorva
Have you seen this?
A Gramophone
It's pretty old right?
Um!
What happened?
I am unable to find my purse
Have you left it back at the house?
I don't know, give me a minute
It's fine
I will give it to Kalaiyya,
We can check it
out after returning
It's fine to take it in next visit
Kallaiyya has to wait till your next visit
Are you the only one who has
interest in collecting coins?
No need
Be quiet
I know that you have lot of questions
I will try to answer it
My name is Arivu
I am from Mysuru
I have to come and search for you to
...conduct an experiment, Apoorva!
Huh?!
Experiment?!
Sir, I have come here for an editing job!
I will leave
I will pay you ten lakhs
Apart from you...
...no one is capable to do this work Apoorva
You have a weird strength
Basically, its difficult to not blink
for two to three minutes!
You have an incredible ability
...to not blink for thirty minutes straight!
You don't know about your strength Apoorva
This is Vremya
One eye blink after application
of this eye drop is enough...
...till thirty three years...
...we can travel to past timeline
Till a guy don't blink...
...till then he can stay in that timeline
Huh?!
Vremya
...is designed for time travel Apoorva
I want to know about a thing
with the help of this
I cannot control the blink
for longer periods
Hence I have come to you
Huh?!
I am not interested in this sir
You can opt any other guy
I'll leave
Don't you remember me telling you
that your father is still alive?
Are you not interested in seeing him?
I will not get trapped into this
Have you blindly trusted everything your mother told you?
She's my world
What was the reason for your father to leave you?
Have you asked anything about it?
I am not interested in knowing about the guy who left, satisfying his lust!
But that's not the truth.
I don't need to learn about that
You don't have the guts to learn the truth!
Who are hell are you sir?
How do you know about me and my father?
I was so close to your dad!
Your father is not a coward as you have assumed!
He tried a lot
But...
...It didn't work out!
Alright
I will make your father stand right in front of you!
Do you dare to ask him the same questions!
Kalaiyya
Kalaiyya
Huh
Dad it's getting late for the train,
I am leaving now
Have water! Before you leave.
Kallaiyya
What happened?
Alas!
What's this Kalaiyya?
Arivu
Arivu please come here
What happened Devaki?
Tch!
She's my daughter Revati
She left for Mysuru five years ago
Hm!
She has not returned
It's her picture
I have to see her once
I always hunt for century old items!
But...
...I couldn't search my daughter
You are from Mysuru right...
...have you seen her anywhere?
No sir
If you finish the task that I say...
the answers to your questions, and the money required...
...you will get both
Kallaiyya
Have you started again?
How many times should I tell you! Revati is gone!
She will never return
Stop searching for her! Kalaiyya
Look at what you have done to yourself!
[HICCUPS]
- Revati!
- Kallaiyya!
Dad I want water
- Kalaiyya I am Devaki...
- Revati!
Hello
Where are you bro?
We need the car
I am trying to connect you
over call since long
It's not getting connected
I am coming
Come soon, everyone is waiting for you
yeah...
He's coming dude
I have to leave
Get back soon
Questions won't leave you at peace
Devaki...
Kallaiyya
...come
We have to leave,
nothing seems right!
She's my daughter
Where are you taking her?
Kallaiyya Please understand
Where were you?
Kallaiyya calm down
Look
Kallaiyya
You leave
- Kallaiyya
- Kallaiyya it's not like that
- Devaki...
- Why did you lie?
Kallaiyya
Hey
You don't speak!
I said you don't speak
- Kallaiyya he's Arivu...
- Nope!
She's my daughter
Come Devaki
Hey!
Don't speak
- Kallaiyya please understand...
- don't speak
- Kallaiyya wait a minute...
- She's my daughter
Kallaiyya Please
I will not leave her
Please Kallaiyya
Kallaiyya!!
She's my daughter
Kallaiyya!
Look what have you done?!
Arivu
"Go and play, return to me, my dear child.
I shall purify your feet"
"and with pure coconut water, I'll refresh
your radiant countenance(face)."
[GROANS PAINFULLY]
Is it fine?
It's fine sir
After he got to know that you're from Mysuru
...he reacted thinking of his daughter!
I spoke with him
He's very much guilty about it!
He had lost his sense
Sorry Arivu
I should had come with you
That's fine sir
No one knew what was going to happen?
I really have to thank Devaki
If she was'nt there he would have killed me.
Why do you speak like that?
Take care!
See you in the morning.
- Come on
- Hm
But Arivu
Sir
I think you have a bond with this town
[CHUCKLES]
Hence this town is not leaving you
Take care.
Alright sir
Devaki
Thank you
Mom
When did dad leave us?
What happened to you?
Tch!
Mother, Please let me know
The day you turned five
What was the reason for him to leave?
It still remains a question to me
He was alright the day when he left
But couldn't get to know what were his thoughts?!
You never asked me about this!...
...Why today?
What happened Appu?
Dad always looks like a villian to me
Like in the movies!
- Having affairs...
- Apoorva
I am the reason for all your assumptions
I haven't told you anything about him
Responsibility, fear, pain...
...haven't given me an opportunity to speak
I remember him say that
he was working on some documentary
I waited too long
I also had registered a missing complaint
We found his car near the Shantala bridge
We searched the river,
thinking he might have drowned.
Nothing worked out
Dad...
...Might still be alive! Isn't it?
I have no trust in him being alive!
Why do you remind me of the past??
[INHALES DEEPLY]
I am feeling tired
Will talk to you tomorrow
APOORVA
Travelling so far...
...might be difficult for a beginner
You have to enter the date, time and place
that you wanna travel to in this watch
Take it
Enter any date, time and place
blink only after you apply eye
drops to both of your eyes!
You'll be nervous for the first time!
Gradually you will adapt
Are you ready?
"Life is a riddle"
"our path is barren"
"Running in circles, it's a circus we in a centrifuge"
"Discover as we enter new"
"perceptions, we get introduced"
"to a whole new uncomfortable truth, searching for a clue"
"There are a hundred thorns in the path of dreaming"
"we are filled with questions that don't have answers"
"Finding answers through the present and the past when we integrate"
"Fate is the reason I have made myself the enemy"
"Find what you gotta find"
"Seek what you gotta seek"
"Earn what you gotta earn"
"Gotta catch it now Before you blink!"
"Run where you gotta run"
"Reach where you gotta reach"
"Learn what you gotta learn"
"Gotta catch it now Before you blink!"
"Feel like I'm running around, like where am I now?"
"Who the hell am I?"
"Things have been spiralling down"
"Spiralling down, now where the hell am I?"
"Running from places to places,"
"Searching for ages, been looking for the truth"
"While I've been now turning the pages, I am!?"
"You remain a stranger to your own being."
"Life, to the world, remains unknown."
[GROANS]
[GROANS]
Don't blink suddenly in front of people!
Blink only when you're far away from people!
You will create trouble for people who
are in contact with you within the same timeline.
Sir
Can I get some water?
When did father leave us?
The day you turned five
What's the reason for him to leave us??
It still remains a question to me
He was alright even on the day he left
"Embarking on a fresh quest, in the absence of sight."
"In the darkest realms, a fresh vision enchants."
"Is life a series of twists, or do twists define life?"
"The shores of new beginnings have a boundless sea ahead!"
It hardly takes fifteen minutes to reach
bridge from the house.
Even if he had left the house at 2:10 PM,
...he would have arrived by 2:30 PM
[GRUNTS AND GROANS]
[RADIO PLAYING]
Where's everyone?
My brother wanted to go to the hospital
He left in the morning as the rain eased
What happened?
Um... I do not know much!
He usually visits the hospital
It might just be a regular check up
How's your pain now?
Yes it's getting better
After taking rest, I'm feeing good
Hands up
[GRUNTS SOFTLY]
I am not worried about the destroyed bottle!
Your impatience is what saddens me!
I made a mistake in this too
I should have informed you earlier about the rules
You can only travel three times a day
The bottle broke and the eye drops were wasted,
you escaped somehow.
Otherwise, you would have lost your eyes
You said that my father is alive!
But...
...He jumped into the river right
in front of me...
...And lost his life!
You're talking about the rules now.
You're being gradually introduced to everything
You'll understand everything as we proceed
At least tell me what I am supposed to do?
The next morning
you have to go to the place
where your father went before he died
You cannot stop him from jumping into the river
If you wanted to stop him,
you should have stopped him on the first attempt.
You haven't done that
After he jumps into the river
It's your responsibility to save him
Apoorva
You only have one chance
For your father to live
...you must save him on the first attempt.
Take it
An important thing...
...No one should know about you time travelling!
You can only travel thrice a day
In the past timeline...
...three to four...
...morning and afternoon
...you can not travel between this time.
Huh?
What?
Three to four are blank hours
What ever occurs between this time period
cannot be accessed
I can't understand anything sir
You have completed your quota for today!
Wait till the time refreshes
Save father tomorrow
I will inform you on what to do next.
He is blind prophet Tiresias
That means I won't be able to talk to you for the next two months
Will you not come for the Mumbai show too?
I don't know
At least for my happiness, please say that you will try
Sappe
I have got an opportunity to achieve financial stability
if I stay focused for just two months, it will be beneficial for both of us
Appu
Shall I come to your room today?
Please don't deny it
I really want to spend time with you
No
I have to leave early in the morning, tomorrow
Fine
You are blind despite having two eyes
You cannot see the catastrophe of your own life
I will leave sir
Where are you going?
To Durga
Take some rest
He's going to Durga
He has to mail a telegram urgently
Thus, he is departing
Gopi, give me the car key
We will leave
That's ok Devaki
I am fine
I can go alone
Take care
Okay sir
Careful!
[HUMMING SONG]
Please forgive me Arivu
I made a blunder in memory of my daughter
I did strange things remembering my past
I felt like my head would burst
I couldn't sense what I was doing.
When did your daughter leave the house?
An afternoon on October 14th, 1991
She left to Mysore with her friends by train
She never returned
I always used to drop her off
But that day...
I was too busy
"The march of time imparts numerous tales."
"What lies beyond the flowing river's bend?"
"Much like a river that pauses in its journey,
only to reverse its course."
"Similar to the reappearance of
weathered pages from the past."
"This is a web of time."
"It's an everlasting debt"
"Cleanse yourself of the weight of past."
"Embark on a quest for uncharted horizons."
"Chase behind, rooted in the same place."
"Embrace life anew and witness."
"Chase behind, rooted in the same place."
"Embrace life anew and witness."
"Who is it that the mind wanders in
search of, here and there?"
"If the narrative shifts, life shall brim with curiosity."
"For what reason have you pursued your own self?"
"Has the world become unfamiliar now?"
"In the gentle breeze, breath finds its rhythm."
"The light emerges as the current dark cloud dissipates."
"Within you, the melody awaits;"
"Endeavour to live anew."
"Chase behind, rooted in the same place."
"Embrace life anew and witness."
I couldn't save him sir
it was already three o'clock
Blank hours, started
Though...
...Sir, why might he have decided to die?
You will be answered for everything Apoorva
I will observe the time,
and will let you know on what needs to be done.
Write down your mobile number here
I will call you,
Until then you don't have to meet me
[SINGING NAGARAHAVU MOVIE SONG]
Arivu
No sir
Little
I don't drink sir
Have it!
No, don't want sir
Are you shy about drinking?
I am not used to it sir
A man
Should be in a state as
if he is always drunk.
What to drink?
Wine
Poetry
Virtue
Whatever it is!
One must indulge in drinking!
Pass me the chips!
He just wants a reason to drink
I recall having read it somewhere.
Huh
It's a quote spoken by Baudelaire
Arivu
Sir
I think you didn't get his words
Do you know the Persian poet Rumi?
I know sir
He quotes...
...the wound is the place
where light enters you
One has to be wounded for light to enter.
He is wounded
light might enter him
[CHUCKLES IN UNISON]
I'm leaving for the first train tomorrow
I had left all the work unfinished before leaving Mysore
Everything there is now disorganised
I must go
Arivu
I have to tell you something
Due to that incident at Kallaiyya's place,
you spent a couple of days with us
We might have not spoke much...
...We liked you a lot
As they say...
Spiritual,
Company...
Like that
Who are you?
Where have you come from?
What's your story?
We do not need any of those!
Devaki...
Stop it! Brother
It's nothing Arivu
Alas!
You please be quit
Look
If you don't have the courage to say
then be quite
He's making an effort to say!
[INHALES DEEPLY]
Arivu I like you a lot
I wish to live with you
That's what I meant
Don't add up things.
Um... There's no love though
Alas! Arivu please don't mind
I just came up with it!
Thank you
for offering me the opportunity to
spend the rest of my life with you.
- Apoorva!
- Huh
Please take master along with you today!
My wife is experiencing labour pain
I am leaving to go there directly
Alright sir
Master, could you please make
an adjustment for one day?
Feel free to reach me if anything's needed
Careful sir
Shall we leave?
Master please
Bye... Bye
[IN UNISON] Bye
Take care
This is my place
Come in
Um!
Master! Please come in
There are a lot of mosquitoes in the vicinity.
Sir has welcomed a baby boy
It calls for a cocktail party
tomorrow night after the rehearsals!
No one should miss being there!
[GIGGLES]
Come, let's have a look at Sir's baby, if you don't have any work
Let me wake up the master.
We will go together
Sir
Psst!
Sir
Wake up Sir
Sir
Um, Sir
Si...
Sir!
Huh!
Sir?!
Sir!
[GASPS]
Oh my god!
He lived a secretive life
We don't know anything about him
apart from the fact that he used to write detective novels
Like this...
...ten years ago
I met him at a play's set work!
He has a child's heart.
Hatred, selfishness, ego...
...he had nothing
He's so cute sir
What have you named him?
- Hey
- [GASPS]
He was born just yesterday.
Will he think of a name suddenly after it's born?
We already have a name in mind!
Likewise, sir would have thought of something!
Isn't it sir?
Arivu
Arivu!
Name is quite unique
My name is Arivu
He had written a story called Aganthuka
The main character in that story is Arivu.
When I read that story...
...I liked the name a lot!
I had already decided by then.
If it's a baby boy,
then I would name him Arivu
Did that story get published?
Nope
He used to write stories while he was drunk
Nothing has been published
I liked this story out of
a few that he has written.
It's...
...a story of a time traveller
That time traveller's name is Arivu
Sir can I get that story?
Yes he's kept couple of files in my home
I will check if it's there in it
"Haunting curiosities"
- Sir,
- Huh "wear myriad faces."
- Greetings
- "wear myriad faces."
Hello
You?
"The mind, a dense woodland,"
I am Arivu
"The mind, a dense woodland,"
I have come from Mysore
"The mind, a dense woodland,"
Arivu...
""Harbours a mystical creature within."
...He had captivated me in our first encounter
"Harbours a mystical creature within."
In just a couple of hours of talking
"To whom will you render toll when the path finds no conclusion?"
I felt a strong connection with him
"To whom will you render toll when the path finds no conclusion?"
"To whom will you render
toll when the path finds no conclusion?"
Hm-hmm
Hm, I am typing
Tch! Not that
What do you feel about Arivu?
You tell me how you feel about him.
Um... I liked him a lot
He has some uniqueness about him
He attracted me a lot
B-But...
...I don't know about him
Is caste a problem?
Tch!
Not like that
I don't know how to express that to you.
One day...
- ...it was raining
- Hm
Your sister-in-law was working at the garments in front of my office
[GIGGLES]
Until the rain stopped...
...we stood under the office's ledge
We both got introduced to each other
We got close in just two hours of our meeting
Hm
I know that
You guys got married within the next two months
But still-
-Reason is powerless...
...in the expression of love
What is felt, that should be told
Eyes might lie...
...but heart doesn't
"A joyous spinning top, having
severed ties with the leash of misery."
"Is spinning through life, much like
the Earth whirls on its axis."
You have a bond with this town
"Is spinning through life, much like the Earth whirls on its axis"
Hence, this town is not letting you go.
"After deciphering the script of time,"
I go by the name of Devaki
"After deciphering the script of time,"
I go by the name of Arivu
"Curiosities persist, querying the mysteries ahead"
All the humans are equal
"Curiosities persist, querying the mysteries ahead"
All the ideologies that place men above women.
We have rejected all traditions.
...we have denied
He said, there's no one in Mysore
Even business is not yielding much
I will stay in this house
He said that he will look for some job here
I got him a job in the press where I was working
The doctor said that the chances of having a baby are less.
Sperm count is low
Tried every medicine, Arivu
English, Ayurveda
In the end, I even tried the local medicines
Doctors said there will be adverse effects
Hence I left it
I am not saddened by that, Arivu
We can consider adoption if we don't have children
What saddens me is
...Society will speak ill of Yashoda.
That she's incapable...
...Childless
Gopal sir
There's no point in worrying about the world.
We have to confront certain things
Calm down
- Yashu
- Uh-huh
Can you make me some coffee?
Will do
One character is bothering me
Are you crazy?
Huh?
Gopal
I feel we shouldn't adopt a child right now.
Can we wait for two more years please?
I made a solemn vow to the goddess.
She will definitely save us
The god and vows...
...will not work
I cannot...
I cannot give you a child
This is the truth Yashu...
...that I am incapable
Um...
Damn!
[GROANS SHARPLY]
I don't comprehend what I saw and what occurred there
I couldn't understand it
I went to the place where the suitcase was
Arivu
Arivu
There was a vial there
upon which it was written "Play with time."
When I opened the suitcase
It previewed unable to access
I couldn't understand anything
Brother
Did you see Arivu?
I cannot find him since last night.
Brother I am asking you
Hm
Huh!
He went to Mysore
Huh?!
He mentioned that he has some pending work.
He said that he will be back after completing the work.
Did he say so?!
He always used to inform me before going out.
He was with me in the room till midnight
Um! He did not inform me anything!
You were asleep dear
He informed me
Some one had visited from the town
He was in pretty urgency
He will be back
When I opened the suitcase
which Arivu had left.
I tried to find a clue!
"Can a ship truly find its destination,
without plumbing the depths unknown?"
"Is it mandatory to unravel the origin of life's voyage?"
"Shall not the eclipse once more shadow
the light born to defy darkness?"
"The shadow of death lurks,
yearning to challenge every ray of light."
Mr.Shastry can we travel in time?
I read couple of books today
I'm asking because I saw few evidences of time travelling in that book.
It's only possible in fictional stories
As of present-day human practices,
...time travel is not feasible.
That too...
If we ever had proof of time travel
[LAUGHS SOFTLY]
...it's all crap!
[LAUGHS SOFTLY]
What about a watch!
Or...
...is there a possibility
of time travel with eyedrops?
Gopal
Which brand of alcohol did you have last night?
[CHUCKLES]
[CHUCKLES] You're talking weird!
[CHUCKLES]
Mom
Did father have a sister?
Sister?
No
Why do you ask?
Devaki
Was she married?
Oh Devaki
She passed away due to an illness at the hermitage.
Arivu
Do you know someone by the name of Arivu?
Apoorva
Come home we'll speak
So...
Devaki was married
No. She... at the hermitage.
Arivu
Do you know someone by the name of Arivu!?
What happened?
Why are you communicating differently today?
How much have you lied to me, mother?
Why did you hide all this from me?
At least tell me now
Arivu
Appu come to town, I wish to see you...
Do you know someone by the name of Arivu?
My leg is aching a lot
I need an answer
I don't know anyone Apoorva
I need an answer
Come home, we will speak
- Apoorva...
- I need an answer
Come home...
I need it now
Arivu is your father
Devaki is your mother
I am the one who raised you
[SOBS] Apoorva
Appu
I didn't share all this, thinking it might make you feel sad.
Where is my father now?
Arivu never returned
...after he left the house!
Devaki
Devaki
[SOBS SOFTLY]
Apoorva how did you get to know about Arivu?
The truth has to come out one day, Isn't it?
Deva...
Mother
What happened to my mother?
After Arivu left
The environment of our house turned different
Devaki
Gopal felt guilty of ruining Devaki's life!
Moreover Devaki...
was hoping for Arivu's return someday
Devaki was eight months pregnant
That night, there were thunderstorms in Rayadurga.
Gopal had went out for work

Calm down dear
Alas! What should I do?
Devaki... Devaki!
Devaki!
Gopal is also not at home!
What shall I do?

Hey!

Doctor said...
...The mother passed away before giving birth.
The child is fortunate to be alive.
The child was born from the womb of a deceased woman.
[SOBS]
The questions have begun to torment me.
It's a lot to take in
Dad!
You're not wrong!
Why did you leave us behind!
The time traveller Arivu, who's responsible for bringing you, me, and my mother to this state
I've found him!
I won't leave him
Dad!

...it's little big
- Hey Satya
- Huh
Say it dude
Whose murder?
Did the lord not name him?
Hey Satya
Are you lost?
Take your dialouges properly
Sir also said the same thing
- What are you doing Satya?
- Nothing
- Give me the phone
- Why?
-Give me the phone
-Why?
Damn you!
[INDISTINCT SHOUTS]
Hey Micheal
Hey Apoorva!
Kitty!
[INDISTINCT SHOUTS]
What happened Kitty?!
Dude leave him
[INDISTINCT SHOUTS]
Leave me
Leave me dude
- Leave me
- Come here
Stop it Apoorva
He was recording you!
Hey leave me
I was just reading the script
And he's thrashing me for no reason!
How dare you lie
[INDISTINCT SHOUTS]
Enough!
Do you consider yourself a bloody goon?
Kitty! Take him away!
Hey leave me
I didn't like how you behaved Swapna!
He was wrong
Damn!
You didn't have a liking for him from the beginning
You find fault with him even when he's just reading the script
Satya haven't done anything wrong
you shouldn't have physically confronted him
Please understand
Kudos
It's all my fault
I will kill you if you call again
Yeah really! You'll even kill me
The offensive language, you used
Hey hang up
Did I call?
You had called me!
You can hang up
Sure, I will hang up
Why should I disturb you?
Satya might call...
...You guys might have a lot to speak!
Wow!
Now I am beginning to understand your perspectives
I was with you till date!...
- Your heart may be filled with negativity...
- Hey, hang up
Apoorva
Green tea
Luckily, it has come out good today!
I don't have to know
anything else about you
I don't wish to know the reason behind your actions of following me too!
Please leave
I am at peace after leaving everything behind!
I was waiting for the right moment
I couldn't bear to wait for so long Apoorva
Listen to me once
You don't have to say anything
Nor I will listen to you!
Please leave from here
You have to know this
Please will you leave from here?
Don't you want to know
about me Apoorva?
You are my dad
I know this truth
I have no interest in knowing anything further!
That's enough
I need not to know anything more.
Please
let me live as I am
Allow me to remain as I am.
You have to know this Apoorva
I am not anyone but
YOU!
In the next six months
Yashoda will pass away
Even Swapna will leave you
You will be placed well
You will have a good earning
But...
...You'll have no one with you!
Ioniliness starts huanting you
In the year 2032!...
...regarding work process you will move to Kolkata
You will get to meet a man named Arbindu Sen
Humanity, love had perished
Life had become a source of agony for me!
Here, no one belongs to me
Hm!
This is also not my town
Despite my desire to move to Bangalore,
...the situation remains the same there too.
I obtained the eyedrops with assistance from Arbindu Sen, illegally
Thank you
Vremya had two features
The first one was...
...the longer you hold the blink...
...You can exist in an alternate timeline
Second is
one way ticket
A small ring will be installed to your body
After which...
By applying the eyedrops and blinking your eyes...
...it's the end
Until you close your eyes for one last time!
Or till the ring breaks,
...you will not be able to return
That was the moment when Apoorva transformed into Arivu
In the search of lost human bonds,
friendship and love...
...I travelled to the year 1996
through one way ticket
Sir
Greetings
Hello
Who are you?
I'm Arivu
and am from Mysore
Arivu?!
Nice name
Me and Devaki got together and married!
We cherished and cared for each other deeply, finding fulfilment in our bond
When I was with her
my senses seemed to fade away, captivated by the depth of our connection
I began experiencing an abundance of love, friendship, and family bonding
I embarked on a temporary journey, driven by the hope of reuniting with Revathi, Kallaiyya's lost daughter.
That was the wrong decision I took!
The ring broke as my body accelerated while attempting to save Revathi.
In that timeline, survival becomes limited to just one year once the ring is broken
You've given me everything
I desired O'Raama
Everything has been placed
as you wished O'Raama
Since that fateful morning,
I had been receiving a notification that the battery's life has expired!
I won't ask you not to give dificulties but
Bless me with the strength to endure the pain O'Raama
My heart pines for more, O' Raama
Where else is so tranquil as with you, O' Raama
Rama... Rama... Rama... Rama
[PANTS AND GRUNTS]
After seven months...
I met Arbindu
It proved to be extremely challenging for civilians to find Vremya
I'll search it out it, he said
After which...
I never met him
After an extensive search, I finally managed to locate the Vremya tracer.
I believed it would be beneficial to utilize the Vremya tracer to track and connect with the suitcase I used to use.
It led me to the year 2001
I discovered that there was no access to the previous years
I travelled to 2001
Gopi sir
Oh... Time traveller
When did you come?
Huh?!
Time traveller?!
-Leave from here
-No
I will let you know everything!
Let me explain you everything!
Sir, Please understand
What?
What should I make of this revelation?
Huh?
Please listen to me once
There's nothing left to talk
Yashu will be here in a moment!
Let's meet near the river in the morning!
Gopal sir, where's Devaki?
Please refrain from causing any further trouble.
Gopal sir, I want to see Devaki once
Devaki...
...We are taking care of
Devaki's child Arivu
Please don't take the child away from us!
Please leave
Child?!
What are you talking about?
I earnestly wish to see Devaki once, please.
We have lost Devaki
What happened to Devaki, Gopal sir
Gopal sir
Gopal sir
What happened to Devaki, Gopal sir
What happened to Devaki, Gopal sir
We have lost Devaki
- What?
- Leave me
- Gopal sir... Gopal sir!
- Leave me
Please... Please... Please!
Hey!
I want to see the child once
It's our child
Leave me
Gopal sir!
I want to see the child once
It's not possible
Gopal!
I want to see my child once
Gopal!
Give me back my child Gopal
[GASPS AND GROANS]
Leave me
- I did not die on that day!
- Gopal!
I had to return to the year 2034!
I was along again!
You mean!
...you are son of Devaki
You mean, I!
Did I sleep with my mother
and gave birth to myself!?
No!
I won't believe this
I really won't believe this
Believe it or not
That's the truth Apoorva
This is a loop
I find myself struggling to stop it, despite making numerous attempts.
Arivu and Devaki will unite
Apoorva will take birth!
Apoorva becomes alone
He will embark on a time-travel journey in search of love.
Apoorva will again become Arivu
Arivu and Devaki will unite
Vremya was banned in India
I haven't come across any comparable product to it.
In 2054...
...I tried to end my life
But...
My death will not resolve this issue.
To stop Apporva becoming Arivu
I felt of doing a final try
I received a response to my message from a website named "Troista" on the dark web
By taking one way ticket
I travelled back thirty-three years!
That is
...I travelled to 2021
Since I couldn't access the previous years
Apoorva
I can't change my past
But...
...you can change your future
I have come here to end this!
If Apoorva is to avoid becoming Arivu,
...you must die
I tried to kill you many times!
My heart couldn't accept it.
I wanted to inform you about this earlier.
If you don't want to commit a mistake by being me!
...this is the only option Apoorva
I only have one request
Give me a day
I will come to your place tomorrow
Mom, how are you?
How are you Appu?
You haven't uttered a word since you discovered that.
Did you eat?
[SNIFFLES]
Come home, Appu
I wish to see you
[SOBS]
It might be preferable for certain questions to remain unanswered.
It would have been better,
if many things remained as questions
"My dear"
"Your presence brings immense joy."
"When your gaze nestles nearer."
"My innermost thoughts await a new dawn."
"Your silence has transformed into a whisper."
"When we finally meet on that final day."
"Rescue me and commence a fresh voyage."
"May all my contemplations grant you the blessings."
Appu
What did you feel about me asking time!
I was pretty confirmed that you were interested too!
Confirm?
Do not blabber!
Tch!
Don't I know about you?
If you were not sure!
...You would have denied my proposal!
When you asked for some more time!
...I was 90 percent sure that you would agree!
Tch!
Swapna
Sorry
Hey!
I had mentioned that I wanted to show you something!
Wait!
What's this?
This is my mother's engagement ring!
Had I not told you?
An unexpected force intervened and saved my mother when she attempted to commit suicide
She found this ring over there!
She requested my father to use the same ring during their engagement.
She casually mentioned this to me while we were having a conversation.
She had expressed her intention to give the same ring during my marriage as well.
So, I brought this to show you.
"It appears as though a fading flower has, for one final time, smiled in my direction."
"The sky that once adorned the heavens with a rangoli has now faded into a colorless canvas."
"Before fading away, please release the lingering emotions".
"I require no air for existence; love alone suffices."
Oh my love!
[SIGH PEACEFULLY]
Apoorva
I recommend trying it before it cools down.
Apoorva
[LAUGHING]
Hey!
Hey... Hey!
What are you doing?
My death will not resolve this issue.
You committed the mistake,
and now I should suffer the punishment?
Hey... Hey!
Don't get emotional.
-Please understand
-Why?
Are you afraid of death?
- My death won't change anything!
- Nothing has to change
You
Why did you come into my life?
Everything used to be fine before.
But...
...Nothing appears to be the way it was before.
Nothing will remain the way it used to be!
Look
Even if you kill me
You will not be able to
come out of this loop
You have to die for Apoorva to not become Arivu!
Why should I die?
You have to die
Hey... Hey... Hey... Hey!
[INHALES SHARPLY]
[GROANS]
Damn!
[SOBS SOFTLY]
[SOBS SOFTLY]
[SNIFFLES]
[SOBS SOFTLY]
Sinner in the womb
Sinner in the marriage
Oedipus! The sinner with blood on his hands!
O Light!
Light!
"Envelop me, oh light! For I have endured, even after everything has been revealed."
"Envelop me, oh light! For I have endured, even after everything has been revealed."
"May it be that our paths don't cross again."
"May it be that our paths don't cross again."
"I will kill my father
and will sleep with my mother", he said!
Gopal, do we have plenty of time?
The roads are not good too!
It may take half hour
That's fine Mr.Shastry,
We can reach
Shall we go?
On hearing that, I fled!
[IN UNISON] Is it?
Satya as king Oedipus
Harshita as Jocasta
JAN 5 - 1995
Appu
Is this fine?
Yo Appu
- Yo Apoorva!
- Hm
Huh?
Look here
Hey
Move the pillar to the centre
This one?
More
Huh
Bit more
Look
A bit more
Is this fine?
Yes it's fine
Hey Kitty
Rathnakar shastry's daughter-in-law is
coming from Mysore -Okay sir!
Send someone to pick her up!
Alright sir, I will go
Have your breakfast!,
eat it quickly and circle up
Sir I will give you
the online ticket count
Have your breakfast!
Huh
Sir! They're calling you
Hey! You're not ready yet?
How long will it take?
TCH! - PSST!
Come here for two minutes
Why?
Hm
Swa...
Swapna
All the best
Thank you, same to you
Come on sathya
Sir I will be there in two minutes
Hello
Hello Apoorva
Yes sir tell me
Excuse me for a minute
I Know Basic Editing.
Do you have any idea about After effects?
I am not well versed in After effects
Um...
...Will you work full time?
Uhmm! No sir, I'm only up for part time!
Consider working full time!
We shall pay you well!
Um...
It's...
...I have to clear the exams
Um...
Working full time will be a bit difficult sir
I would recommend working full time
for your own benefit!
[SOUNDS CRACKLING] Do you own a system?
What sir?
Do you own a system?
Own system?
No sir
[SOUNDS CRACKLING] It is not possible without a
system Apoorva!
Sir you are not audible
Hello...
I said it's not possible
without own system
Okay, it's okay
- Better luck next time
- Okay sir
Alright
Okay
-Thank you
-Huh
[HUMMING SONG]
I will kill my father, he said!
Apoorva
How are you?
How is Yashoda doing?
- On hearing that, I fled!
- Sir?!
[IN UNISON] Is it?
I had asked about your mother
I didn't recognise you!
[SOFT CHUCKLE]
Go and tell her...
...that her husband is not dead
Who are you?
[SOFT CHUCKLE]
I'm the one you need the most!
How do you know about my mom?
I will tell you at the right moment
Your leg is bleeding
Wipe it
Sir
Brother
Sir
Fate rules us
Brother a property is missing
Nothing can be predetermined
Come quickly, the director is on fire
Huh!
So why should anyone fear it?
In the blink of an eye, everything had happened!
If I hadn't met the oldie in green room...
Everything might have been fine!
I don't know
I started hunting answers for the questions formed in there!
More questions were awaiting me further!
The first question...
...who was he?
Your grandpa
You might have been
pranked by one of our boys!
Haven't they fooled us to believe that
my uncle knew about us, by sending Ram uncle previously?
Is this new for you?
Tch!
Swapna, there's no way it could be a prank!
I haven't seen him anywhere, previously!
You take petty things seriously
Hey
Did I perform well today?
Did anyone, by chance, notice my stutter
during the monologue?
Nope
Swapna
If you don't mind?
Will you come for two minutes?
My parents are here...
- Thought of introducing you to them!
- Huh... Okay
- Alright come
- Wait a minute
- Hello
- Hello dear
That Jerk Satya was
introducing you to his parents, what was that all about?
Hold it dude
...What's that about?
Why you get so irked up on him Appu?
That was just a casual introduction
I find his behaviour weird now a days!
There's nothing else right?
Having a right viewpoint
will make everything right
Woah!
I was not aware
Thanks madam
I will amend my ill thought
Don't you have any other job
apart from being jealous and doubtful?
Yes dear
I don't have a job
Concern is diminishing
I haven't cleared the exams
There is neither any money, asset nor influence.
You have no worries
You have a chunk of land amid the city
You have a car, a vehicle, and a secured job
I don't even own a place good for my grave!
My status...
...hm-hmm...
...Does not match
Isn't it?
If I ever considered liking you
based on your status, I had too many options!
Huh! I have seen your options
Take it
I think this is lacking a bit of salt!
You always find flaws
with everything made by me right?
You're not satisfied with anything of me!
Isn't it?
Hey fool
What did say to micky?
That I am a Hamsalekha fan and
I do not understand modern day love!
Am I an old school?
Hamsalekha has given
a lot of hits to Ravichandran movies
Mind it
What do you mean?
Huh!
I had told you about a channel run by Ba Ravi.
He's looking for people to write articles.
I have sent his office address
Go and check it out
Thanks dude
I hope I will find a job soon, Swapna!
Sappe
Hm
Will you lend me two thousand rupees?
I will repay you soon.
Alright
Send yourself a thousand now!
I will send one more tomorrow morning.
Is that fine?
Hm
I have your costume bag; I'll give it to you
tomorrow. Is that okay?
Also, my parents were overwhelmed to
see you perform
Thanks sweetie
[HUMMING SONG]
Clear the exams at least this time
Time is slipping away Appu!
A delay will in time will lead to parental pressure
I
I will kill my father, he said!
On hearing that, I fled!
Apoorva
How is Yashoda?
How do you know about mom?
Tell her...
...That her husband is not dead yet!
Who are you?
Sir it's Apoorva
It's not Apoorn
Poorva (East)
Eastern direction
Yeah got it
Huh
There will be a training of three days
Then you can work remotely
You can go now
Sir
It's...
...what will be the pay?
We shall pay you ten thousand for now!
Let's see further
You may leave
Sir
You say it's four articles a day
It would have been helpful if
you can pay me fifteen at least!
This is a new company Apoorva
Initially, you support
is pretty important!
We will consider it in the futures
Appu, I would suggest you to
join this company as
you would have a regular income
You can later work as freelance
editor on the projects you get!
Let's see
Let him call
Come near the office at
four thirty in the evening
There will be a review of yesterday's play
We can leave early
Hm?
Hm
[INDISTINCT CHATTER]
Sir
- Has the book arrived?
- Yes It has!
- What's the bill?
- It's five hundred rupees
- Five hundred?
- Yes Five hundred rupees
Um...
This is enough for now!
- Why?
- Next time...
...amount...
Okay
[INDISTINCT CHATTER]
Boss
Huh!
Money?
Huh
There was an old man in the
greenroom at yesterday's show.
Tell your mother...
...he spoke weirdly that
her husband is alive
Brother, have you lost your father?
His father left him when he was five
And he has not returned yet!
That's a different issue
I will narrate it in the next drink meet
You tell me dude
I saw the same oldie when
I went to shop for the book
He vanished just before
I could reach out to him!
I have a weird feeling about this!
Yo dude
Could someone be following me?
Bro
Which English movie did you watch last night?
Eat
It is obvious that an undercover
agent is following you!
He will thrash the hell out of you
[LAUGHS]
He will make you sit
in your inners at the police station!
Damn you guys
I am being quite serious here!
Shut up! Why would someone follow you?
Damn him!
Damn you guys

Micky and Micheal...

So to swapna who bridged their love...

We will not fight again Swapna
Its true love this time around!
I will definitely marry her
Hey!
Damn you!
Where's my chocolate?!
Haven't I supported you love story?
I have only one,
you guys can share it
That's not possible dude
I need an entire one
Let's do one thing Appu
You both stare each other in the eyes
The one who doesn't blink...
...We will give the chocolate to them
Hey kiddo!
Go and look after your business
Hey!
- That's a good idea
- That's right
I am ready dude
Let's see...
...who has more potential!
Yes... Yes
Hey it's not possible
-Come on dude
-I can't play child's game
Hey dude
Come on dude
Come dude
Please don't
Hey, do not worry! We shall see!
Sit down
"In the realm of closed eyes,
The woods are our sanctuary,"
"A hefty filled burlap sack rolls

"Please give me your attention"
"Your eyes have caused me to forget the world."
[INDISTINCT CHEERS]
"Speechless Exhilaration"
"At the edge of the eye, like poetic eye drops."
Damn! Why did you blink?
That's awesome pal, you have won
You could have done it
You have won
Appu you have won
You may close your eyes
Bro!
The chocolate
Hello
I played my part too!
Appu bro
Bro
What happened?
What dude?
[GIGGLES]
Apoorn, I have seen your articles
You have a solid grip
Apoorn do one thing...
As we're off to Udupi for a documentary shoot,
... you can join us from next week!
Alright sir
Thank you so much sir
Here he arrived
He is our Gopal Master!
Once upon a time...
...he was an acclaimed author
He was great at his thriller series!
But I don't know...
...Suddenly, he stopped everything
He roams wildly
He always stays alone
He wanders with books on his bicycle
He gives his books to the readers for free
He don't have any home or family
No one knows his background!
He offers help to the plays happening in and around the city
That too, without asking for a pay!
Food and shelter is enough
He doesn't speak
He argues that words will not aid here
He doesn't wear any footwear recognising the disparity!
You will get to know him better as the time passes!
You will see
He will be with us for the show!
Ain't he a crazy guy?
He doesn't have any commitments or wishes
Has no worries about the future
[SCOFFS]
Would you have accepted if
I had been the same?
This feels good just to express!
This is called madness
What about his family?
[SCOFFS]
Hey Sappe
I got a job
They asked me to join from next week
It's a good news Appu
Primarily let's shop
for couple of shirts for you
You wear the same shirt
every time you go out
Mom
I got a job
They said to join from next week
May god bless you son
[GASPS] Slowly Devaiyya
What happened?
Now a days my legs ache a lot Appu
Devaiyya is massaging my feet
Ratna
Son got a job in Bangalore
Sweet treat is nothing
I will offer a meat feast
Appu will you visit for the festival?
Appu?
Huh!
Huh
I will not get a leave
in the training period
Have you dined?
I have to eat
Ratna
Keep aside the new clothes
Appu wait a minute
I will call you back
Okay
Alright, bye
Who is it?
Apoorva
[PANTS]
Damn!
Who on earth asked you to dry your
underwear on a gas stove?
Yo
It was wet so I was just drying it
Your burnt underwear is going viral on WhatsApp
Shall I make it a trend on twitter?
#blackunderwear
Hey shut up and walk
Hello
The baby has burnt his undie
Hey!
- I will go get the book
- Okay
Huh
Sir
Stop
Sir hold on
Sir
Apoorva, following me is not worth it!
You cannot get hold of me now
I am not...
...you are the one who is following me
How do you know my name and my mother's?
I will tell you everything when we meet again
Do not waste your time following me until then!
I will not leave until
my questions are answered
Why are you following me?
What do you want?
I need a bit of time Apoorva
- Now you leave...
- Sir I can't get it
Please say something and leave!
Hello
Where the hell are you?
[KANNADA FOLKLORE]
You did not listen to me the last time
I am going nuts!
I see that oldie where ever I go
Tch!
What are you talking?
Are you well?
Yes brother
How is your mother doing?
Brother! Why are you leaving now?
There seems to be a delay in MLA's visit.
Take it
I have given the vehicle to Satisha
Take it
Won't you come tonight?
Nope
You will enjoy a lot then
Where's mom?
She's near the temple
Ladies left already
Alright
Let's go everyone! Its time
- Alright brother.
- Coming
Hey get up you idiots
What's your problem dude?
Tch!
I am so worried!
I went to close the windows
as it was raining!
Hm
I saw my look alike outside!
Tch!
He disappeared in a moment
Damnit!
We can call that an illusion
But this oldie
This oldie is not an illusion dude
I spoke with him today.
Something is fishy dude
My heart is not at peace
Who on earth will follow you?
You always mind your own business!
Shall I file a police complaint?
They'll laugh at you
if you say that an old man follows you.
Dude
This cannot be solved.
There's no one at my place.
Let us have a cocktail party with few experts!
Everything will be cleared
What do you say?
Damn you!
Tch!
Hello
Meet me today evening by four
There's not much work at the office
We can meet early
Alright
Then, I have to show you something
It's a very special thing
My mother had never mentioned anything about it!
What is it?
Hey idiot...
When we meet up!
It's a surprise
Alright ma'am is here, bye
Bye
Dude
You haven't told anything to Swapna
about the old man! Have you?
Don't tell her dude
She'll get worried
[EXHALES DEEPLY]
[KANNADA FOLKLORE]
Hey!
Who the hell is he man?
Damn!
Mother goddess has come!
Mother has come
Offer something to mother
Hey leave
Offer 101 bucks.
Mother goddess is on her way to the mountain!
- I told you I do not have any money!
- Don't say that
There will be a curse
Your shadow will ruin you
- Your shadow will ruin you
- I will bless you
Give it son
- My mother will bless you,
give it son. - Hey!
Are you blackmailing me
in the name of god?
Get lost
Your shadow will ruin you
Damn!
Your shadow will ruin you
- Don't deny it son, her curse
will not leave you. - Hey!
Tch!
Damn it!
Crap!

Wait a minute! I will give the call to him!
Hello

Hey get lost!
Hello

Where are you?
Sathisha has taken the vehicle to
Arrange money for the cocktail party
What's the matter?
Um...
Tch!
Are there no rehearsals today?
Hey dude
Did you not see the message in the group?
Sir has been to Heggodu.
Hence the rehearsals stand cancelled
Damn!
[SCREAMS SHARPLY]
Damnit!
Are things I see, really happening in this world?
Or am I able to see things
happening only in my world?
I don't know that
Yet, the first question remains unanswered!
However, the second question stands
right in front of me!
What's happening to me?
Hey!
[SINGING] Jai Jai Ram Sita Ram
[SCREAMS SHARPLY]
[SCREAMS SHARPLY]
Mom how's the leg pain?
Devaiyaa took me to the hospital Appu
I have been prescribed some medicines
Next week I have to visit again
"sugar level has been increased" they said
Appu, did you eat?
Appu
Appu, did you eat?
Appu, are you there?
Hello!
Shhh!!
Sss... Shit!!
Appu
What did you feel
about me asking time!
I was pretty confirmed that you loved me too!
Confirm?
Don't blabber
Tch!
Don't I know about you?
If you hadn't liked me...
...then you would had denied me of love!
When you asked for time...
I was 90 percent sure that you would agree!
Swapna
Thanks dear
This was one of the best days
in our relationship
It will be remembered forever
You never spoke to me this candidly?
I know it will be too cheesy
But today It brought back
the memories of our first date!
You were holding my hand for the first time
You correcting my hairs
Our first hug and kiss
I recalled everything
I don't know why
but I feel like crying
Please don't let me go Appu!!
Everything will be fine
You will settle soon
I trust you
Why have you called me
this early in the morning?
Are you not over yesterday night yet?
Swapna come to my room immediately
I have something important to discuss with you
But I need to be in the office
Any how we will be
meeting in the evening right?
We'll talk.
Swapna it's really important
Don't give me reasons
Come, Please!!
Please
At least tell me what's up
Am I not trying to tell its important?
Understand
That's it, you have to be here
It's difficult for me to come suddenly
Please try to understand, I have work
Swapna
Tch!
Alright! I will come!
What do you mean that's not
you whom I met yesterday?
We had such a great time
After a very long time it was
such a joy you know
But now you are stating something else
Sappe, Im not lying!
I was at home, yesterday
Actually...
...I saw you both together near your office
I tried calling you many times!
It ringed for the first time
Then it was switched off!
Stop kidding Appu
Did you make me skip office
to tell this?
Slack!
Why should I lie?
I saw him dropping you at the corner of the road
standing on my terrace!
I tried to follow him too
Damn! But he escaped!
Okay
Let's assume that there's
another guy like you...
How will he know about our personal stuff!
That too, so accurately!
I am not able to understand too!
When I saw yesterday's video
...I screwed up
Till today...
...I assumed him to be my illusion
But it's very clear
Both old man and him are
...doing something with my life!
Have you gone mad Appu,
Seriously
Am I mad for speaking truth?
No one is understanding my problem
I am not being acknowledged
by the girl I am in love with
...How should I make others understand!
You're not talking logic here!
Yeah! Because Im an unemployed right
Hence I am passing time with lies
You're pretty busy with life! Aren't you?
Go mind your own business!
Tch!
Yesterday, you behaved so well.
What happened to you suddenly?
Yesterday I was not the one with you
I haven't met you yesterday
This is getting really irritating Appu
That's right
I am an irritation to everyone
There's no sense in talking to me! Is it?
Why are you still standing here?
Leave
I will find my own solutions to the problems I have!
Alright I will leave
The door is open
There's no necessary to repeat it again and again
Non-sense
Sorry Swapna
Sorry
Sorry!
Hey!
Sorry!
I am not able to understand on what's happening around!
[WEEPS]
Sorry
I am speaking weird
Sorry
Hey calm down
Come on! don't cry, wipe your tears.
There's something weird happening
from past two to three days!
Freshen up!
[SOBING]
Sir
Hm
[Greetings]
Hello
Who are you?
Sir my name is Arivu
I am from Mysuru
Arivu?
You have a nice name!
Thank you
What is it?
I found out about Ratnakar Shastry's
seminar at Kuvempu kalabhavan
Hence I have come
They asked me to wait here to catch a bus
and there's no sign of it for an hour
Gopal! Do we still have time?
The roads aren't good either!
It will take around half an hour
That's fine Mr. Shastry,
we can go
Mr.Shastry...
He is Arivu
He's here from Mysuru
To listen to you
Hello sir
Huh-uh
Shall we take him along too?
He might arrive after your speech if keeps waiting for a bus!
You need someone to talk to while travelling.
Alright
Come on
Hop in
Come
Thank you sir
I never expected this encounter
with you sir!
I am pretty happy
Sorry what is your name?
It's Arivu
Arivu
Nice name
What do you do in Mysuru?
I own a business sir
I have a huge interest in art, literature and history!
I am here after reading your book
on Amoghavarsha
I am happy that you have come
In the times where history is forgotten
...it's good to see that you have
come so far for history
"A hundred questions concealed within the eyes."
"Pursuing the bird that has flown from the nest."
"A journey far down the memory lane."
"Pay heed to the call of the dream."
"Time won't pause during the journey."
"What distant shores beckon, O sailor of fate?"
"A soul, fearing the tomorrow's wait,
with a concealed lightning as a guardian harbouring within."
"The path has beckoned you."
I am really happy to meet you and sir
"The unseen shore calls out to you..."
Thank you
"The unseen shore calls out to you..."
Gopal I will take a leave now
"The unseen shore calls out to you..."
You could have come home
for just ten minutes
I have told my wife to cook for you
My friend is the principal at Vivekananda college
I had already promised him that I would join him for lunch!
There will be havoc if I don't go there!
I will make a move, please forgive me
If you don't come then
disaster will strike in my house too
Do one thing
Take this boy
He has come afar!
Rather than eating at a restaurant...
...let him dine at your house
"Like a cloud drifting in the sky."
"A journey knowing no bounds."
"The mind that bestows love,
has now embraced this moment."
"Continuing beyond the crossroads"
"your path persists in its own way."
"Crossing the boundaries of questions,"
"and the manner in which you await answers."
"A new horizon awaits the dawn of tomorrow."
"Today belongs to you."
"A life that never sips the cup of defeat is solely yours."
"Your journey belongs to you; your path is yours alone."
"A hundred questions concealed within the eyes."
Arivu
This is...
...a weapon from the British Era!
Hey it's sharp!
I have a wish...
...to collect the Srinrangapatna
general's sword
But I am low on finances
[CHUCKLES]
That's a coin from Vijayanagara's period
If you can see further,
...There's a silver coin from the Nizam's era too!
I have invested half of my earnings
You know I like history man
An incident occurred in
the Chalukya's period
Once...
...He lost all his monthly earnings
...while trying to buy an urn!
[GIGGLES]
Our luck is that he didn't
let us go hungry!
Sister-in-law
It's not a normal urn Sister-in-law
The money he paid is less compared
to its historical value.
Even I like to collect coins
Even I have some coins
from Rashtrakuta's period
Awesome!
Arivu do you have to leave today
Why?
There's a guy called Kallaiyya...
...He owns a coin library!
There are a lot of collections!
I wanted to take you there
On the 24th,
...at the same time!
...from our team...
...We will be putting up a show at Mumbai Kannada Sangha!
[HOOTS IN UNION]
Yo dude
I will be here by eight in the morning!
There's some props in our old godown,
we shall get it
-Hm
-Apoorva
Huh
Some random professor gave this letter to me
Hm
He has some small editing project
It's a two-month work.
He will pay 30-40 thousand rupees a month
Visit them early in the morning
While you were searching
for part time work
I had asked a few about the part time work!
They must have recommended for the same!
Arivu
Sir
- Rain doesn't like, you searching history
- Take it dear
Huh
Take it
Rain will not come in Rayadurga...
...it won't stop if it rains
Anyhow It's raining heavily!
...he can stay here tonight
Alas! please don't...
-Ah yes
-He can leave after breakfast!
- You stay tonight and leave
in the morning. - That's right pal
Do one thing...
...after breakfast we can
visit Kalaiyya's house
I will drop you off from there
-Yes
-What time is the train?
It's eleven-eleven fifteen
Eleven-fifteen!
I will drop you off
I know only basic editing
They are offering 30-40 thousand!
They must be having great expectations
considering their offer!
You don't assume everything Appu
Has the company called you yet?
They said they might call the
day after tomorrow!
You visit once
If it works out then
You can earn ten months' worth of
money in two months!
Then you can focus on
studies without any worries
Hm?
Hm
May I come in?
Oh Devaki
Come in
Brother told me to give this to you
Alright
It's okay if you're comfortable
sleeping in pants!
Which book is it?
Um...
Oh it's Shikari [Hunt]
Even I like Chittala's writing
Have you started now reading it?
No I have read it
I was glancing at it as it was there!
Oh
What are you doing?
Currently I am helping sis-in-law
in tailoring work
Um...
Even I wish to write stories
and novels like my brother
But what to do...
...My creativity dies just on the second page
... when I start writing!
[BOTH CHUCKLES]
I wish to act in movies and play's too
But I am scared
Brother recommends me to study further
But I don't feel interested
Have to do further planning
I just roam without purpose
Pity that my brother has to
feed me with his meagre earning
- I heard that you're form Mysore!
- Yes I am
We had been to Dasara last time around,
There was a huge crowd
Couldn't see anything properly
Come this time
- You guys can stay at my house
- Definitely I will come
I like this Jambu Savari...
...this police parade...
...this Mushtikaalaga...
...also the bike stunt...
Aww... I just wish to see all those
Oh!
Hey, thank you
Where do you want to go?
Basavanagudi
Is it?
Then do one thing
- You take the Omni.
- Hm
- The two-wheeler might
be required here. - Hm
- I have to travel the same route
in the noon. - Hm
We shall go to the market
Alright
Give it to him
Be careful
Close the door and go
Alright
What?
Hm
Will you drive?
Yes, hop in
Brother and sis-in-law had to leave on work!
Now we both have to go
If it's far you can tell me, I will drive
No issues
I am a good driver
Hm
Hey!
Apoorva
Calm down Apoorva
It might be an illusion
Apoorva
I am not your illusion
I am here
I am beside you
Don't go to that editing job
for the sake of money Apoorva
It's a trap
It's a trap...
Who the hell are you?!
Please
Please listen to me
Please...
[GASPS]
- This is his house
- Huh
I'm coming
Apoorva
Here
I was the one who gave that letter
I am the Kannada professor
That you're looking for!
Come
Come in
- Let's sit and talk!
- Come
That's fine Kallaiyya
Huh, have a seat
There are a couple of coins in this!
- Have a look
- Huh
Thank you
Since how long are you
collecting the coins?
Since few days sir!
Huh
Where are you from?
Mysuru sir!
Where are you from?
It's Mysuru sir
Where are you from?
How many times
will you ask Kallaiyya
He said that he is from Mysuru
But
Where in Mysuru?
It's Kuvempu Nagara sir
[HICCUPS]
Dad water
Dad I want water
[HICCUPS]
I will be back in a minute
I will get it daughter
Why are you looking at like that?
This is my friend's place
He's pretty into the movies
Who are you?
Hey!
Taste it before its cold!
Why are you following me?
Is Swapna well?
How is Yashoda?
Is her leg pain fine?
That's none of your business
What do you want from me?
I had told you that day
... about me meeting you when the time comes!
Now that Time has come! Apoorva
Have you seen this?
A Gramophone
It's pretty old right?
Um!
What happened?
I am unable to find my purse
Have you left it back at the house?
I don't know, give me a minute
It's fine
I will give it to Kalaiyya,
We can check it
out after returning
It's fine to take it in next visit
Kallaiyya has to wait till your next visit
Are you the only one who has
interest in collecting coins?
No need
Be quiet
I know that you have lot of questions
I will try to answer it
My name is Arivu
I am from Mysuru
I have to come and search for you to
...conduct an experiment, Apoorva!
Huh?!
Experiment?!
Sir, I have come here for an editing job!
I will leave
I will pay you ten lakhs
Apart from you...
...no one is capable to do this work Apoorva
You have a weird strength
Basically, its difficult to not blink
for two to three minutes!
You have an incredible ability
...to not blink for thirty minutes straight!
You don't know about your strength Apoorva
This is Vremya
One eye blink after application
of this eye drop is enough...
...till thirty three years...
...we can travel to past timeline
Till a guy don't blink...
...till then he can stay in that timeline
Huh?!
Vremya
...is designed for time travel Apoorva
I want to know about a thing
with the help of this
I cannot control the blink
for longer periods
Hence I have come to you
Huh?!
I am not interested in this sir
You can opt any other guy
I'll leave
Don't you remember me telling you
that your father is still alive?
Are you not interested in seeing him?
I will not get trapped into this
Have you blindly trusted everything your mother told you?
She's my world
What was the reason for your father to leave you?
Have you asked anything about it?
I am not interested in knowing about the guy who left, satisfying his lust!
But that's not the truth.
I don't need to learn about that
You don't have the guts to learn the truth!
Who are hell are you sir?
How do you know about me and my father?
I was so close to your dad!
Your father is not a coward as you have assumed!
He tried a lot
But...
...It didn't work out!
Alright
I will make your father stand right in front of you!
Do you dare to ask him the same questions!
Kalaiyya
Kalaiyya
Huh
Dad it's getting late for the train,
I am leaving now
Have water! Before you leave.
Kallaiyya
What happened?
Alas!
What's this Kalaiyya?
Arivu
Arivu please come here
What happened Devaki?
Tch!
She's my daughter Revati
She left for Mysuru five years ago
Hm!
She has not returned
It's her picture
I have to see her once
I always hunt for century old items!
But...
...I couldn't search my daughter
You are from Mysuru right...
...have you seen her anywhere?
No sir
If you finish the task that I say...
the answers to your questions, and the money required...
...you will get both
Kallaiyya
Have you started again?
How many times should I tell you! Revati is gone!
She will never return
Stop searching for her! Kalaiyya
Look at what you have done to yourself!
[HICCUPS]
- Revati!
- Kallaiyya!
Dad I want water
- Kalaiyya I am Devaki...
- Revati!
Hello
Where are you bro?
We need the car
I am trying to connect you
over call since long
It's not getting connected
I am coming
Come soon, everyone is waiting for you
yeah...
He's coming dude
I have to leave
Get back soon
Questions won't leave you at peace
Devaki...
Kallaiyya
...come
We have to leave,
nothing seems right!
She's my daughter
Where are you taking her?
Kallaiyya Please understand
Where were you?
Kallaiyya calm down
Look
Kallaiyya
You leave
- Kallaiyya
- Kallaiyya it's not like that
- Devaki...
- Why did you lie?
Kallaiyya
Hey
You don't speak!
I said you don't speak
- Kallaiyya he's Arivu...
- Nope!
She's my daughter
Come Devaki
Hey!
Don't speak
- Kallaiyya please understand...
- don't speak
- Kallaiyya wait a minute...
- She's my daughter
Kallaiyya Please
I will not leave her
Please Kallaiyya
Kallaiyya!!
She's my daughter
Kallaiyya!
Look what have you done?!
Arivu
"Go and play, return to me, my dear child.
I shall purify your feet"
"and with pure coconut water, I'll refresh
your radiant countenance(face)."
[GROANS PAINFULLY]
Is it fine?
It's fine sir
After he got to know that you're from Mysuru
...he reacted thinking of his daughter!
I spoke with him
He's very much guilty about it!
He had lost his sense
Sorry Arivu
I should had come with you
That's fine sir
No one knew what was going to happen?
I really have to thank Devaki
If she was'nt there he would have killed me.
Why do you speak like that?
Take care!
See you in the morning.
- Come on
- Hm
But Arivu
Sir
I think you have a bond with this town
[CHUCKLES]
Hence this town is not leaving you
Take care.
Alright sir
Devaki
Thank you
Mom
When did dad leave us?
What happened to you?
Tch!
Mother, Please let me know
The day you turned five
What was the reason for him to leave?
It still remains a question to me
He was alright the day when he left
But couldn't get to know what were his thoughts?!
You never asked me about this!...
...Why today?
What happened Appu?
Dad always looks like a villian to me
Like in the movies!
- Having affairs...
- Apoorva
I am the reason for all your assumptions
I haven't told you anything about him
Responsibility, fear, pain...
...haven't given me an opportunity to speak
I remember him say that
he was working on some documentary
I waited too long
I also had registered a missing complaint
We found his car near the Shantala bridge
We searched the river,
thinking he might have drowned.
Nothing worked out
Dad...
...Might still be alive! Isn't it?
I have no trust in him being alive!
Why do you remind me of the past??
[INHALES DEEPLY]
I am feeling tired
Will talk to you tomorrow
APOORVA
Travelling so far...
...might be difficult for a beginner
You have to enter the date, time and place
that you wanna travel to in this watch
Take it
Enter any date, time and place
blink only after you apply eye
drops to both of your eyes!
You'll be nervous for the first time!
Gradually you will adapt
Are you ready?
"Life is a riddle"
"our path is barren"
"Running in circles, it's a circus we in a centrifuge"
"Discover as we enter new"
"perceptions, we get introduced"
"to a whole new uncomfortable truth, searching for a clue"
"There are a hundred thorns in the path of dreaming"
"we are filled with questions that don't have answers"
"Finding answers through the present and the past when we integrate"
"Fate is the reason I have made myself the enemy"
"Find what you gotta find"
"Seek what you gotta seek"
"Earn what you gotta earn"
"Gotta catch it now Before you blink!"
"Run where you gotta run"
"Reach where you gotta reach"
"Learn what you gotta learn"
"Gotta catch it now Before you blink!"
"Feel like I'm running around, like where am I now?"
"Who the hell am I?"
"Things have been spiralling down"
"Spiralling down, now where the hell am I?"
"Running from places to places,"
"Searching for ages, been looking for the truth"
"While I've been now turning the pages, I am!?"
"You remain a stranger to your own being."
"Life, to the world, remains unknown."
[GROANS]
[GROANS]
Don't blink suddenly in front of people!
Blink only when you're far away from people!
You will create trouble for people who
are in contact with you within the same timeline.
Sir
Can I get some water?
When did father leave us?
The day you turned five
What's the reason for him to leave us??
It still remains a question to me
He was alright even on the day he left
"Embarking on a fresh quest, in the absence of sight."
"In the darkest realms, a fresh vision enchants."
"Is life a series of twists, or do twists define life?"
"The shores of new beginnings have a boundless sea ahead!"
It hardly takes fifteen minutes to reach
bridge from the house.
Even if he had left the house at 2:10 PM,
...he would have arrived by 2:30 PM
[GRUNTS AND GROANS]
[RADIO PLAYING]
Where's everyone?
My brother wanted to go to the hospital
He left in the morning as the rain eased
What happened?
Um... I do not know much!
He usually visits the hospital
It might just be a regular check up
How's your pain now?
Yes it's getting better
After taking rest, I'm feeing good
Hands up
[GRUNTS SOFTLY]
I am not worried about the destroyed bottle!
Your impatience is what saddens me!
I made a mistake in this too
I should have informed you earlier about the rules
You can only travel three times a day
The bottle broke and the eye drops were wasted,
you escaped somehow.
Otherwise, you would have lost your eyes
You said that my father is alive!
But...
...He jumped into the river right
in front of me...
...And lost his life!
You're talking about the rules now.
You're being gradually introduced to everything
You'll understand everything as we proceed
At least tell me what I am supposed to do?
The next morning
you have to go to the place
where your father went before he died
You cannot stop him from jumping into the river
If you wanted to stop him,
you should have stopped him on the first attempt.
You haven't done that
After he jumps into the river
It's your responsibility to save him
Apoorva
You only have one chance
For your father to live
...you must save him on the first attempt.
Take it
An important thing...
...No one should know about you time travelling!
You can only travel thrice a day
In the past timeline...
...three to four...
...morning and afternoon
...you can not travel between this time.
Huh?
What?
Three to four are blank hours
What ever occurs between this time period
cannot be accessed
I can't understand anything sir
You have completed your quota for today!
Wait till the time refreshes
Save father tomorrow
I will inform you on what to do next.
He is blind prophet Tiresias
That means I won't be able to talk to you for the next two months
Will you not come for the Mumbai show too?
I don't know
At least for my happiness, please say that you will try
Sappe
I have got an opportunity to achieve financial stability
if I stay focused for just two months, it will be beneficial for both of us
Appu
Shall I come to your room today?
Please don't deny it
I really want to spend time with you
No
I have to leave early in the morning, tomorrow
Fine
You are blind despite having two eyes
You cannot see the catastrophe of your own life
I will leave sir
Where are you going?
To Durga
Take some rest
He's going to Durga
He has to mail a telegram urgently
Thus, he is departing
Gopi, give me the car key
We will leave
That's ok Devaki
I am fine
I can go alone
Take care
Okay sir
Careful!
[HUMMING SONG]
Please forgive me Arivu
I made a blunder in memory of my daughter
I did strange things remembering my past
I felt like my head would burst
I couldn't sense what I was doing.
When did your daughter leave the house?
An afternoon on October 14th, 1991
She left to Mysore with her friends by train
She never returned
I always used to drop her off
But that day...
I was too busy
"The march of time imparts numerous tales."
"What lies beyond the flowing river's bend?"
"Much like a river that pauses in its journey,
only to reverse its course."
"Similar to the reappearance of
weathered pages from the past."
"This is a web of time."
"It's an everlasting debt"
"Cleanse yourself of the weight of past."
"Embark on a quest for uncharted horizons."
"Chase behind, rooted in the same place."
"Embrace life anew and witness."
"Chase behind, rooted in the same place."
"Embrace life anew and witness."
"Who is it that the mind wanders in
search of, here and there?"
"If the narrative shifts, life shall brim with curiosity."
"For what reason have you pursued your own self?"
"Has the world become unfamiliar now?"
"In the gentle breeze, breath finds its rhythm."
"The light emerges as the current dark cloud dissipates."
"Within you, the melody awaits;"
"Endeavour to live anew."
"Chase behind, rooted in the same place."
"Embrace life anew and witness."
I couldn't save him sir
it was already three o'clock
Blank hours, started
Though...
...Sir, why might he have decided to die?
You will be answered for everything Apoorva
I will observe the time,
and will let you know on what needs to be done.
Write down your mobile number here
I will call you,
Until then you don't have to meet me
[SINGING NAGARAHAVU MOVIE SONG]
Arivu
No sir
Little
I don't drink sir
Have it!
No, don't want sir
Are you shy about drinking?
I am not used to it sir
A man
Should be in a state as
if he is always drunk.
What to drink?
Wine
Poetry
Virtue
Whatever it is!
One must indulge in drinking!
Pass me the chips!
He just wants a reason to drink
I recall having read it somewhere.
Huh
It's a quote spoken by Baudelaire
Arivu
Sir
I think you didn't get his words
Do you know the Persian poet Rumi?
I know sir
He quotes...
...the wound is the place
where light enters you
One has to be wounded for light to enter.
He is wounded
light might enter him
[CHUCKLES IN UNISON]
I'm leaving for the first train tomorrow
I had left all the work unfinished before leaving Mysore
Everything there is now disorganised
I must go
Arivu
I have to tell you something
Due to that incident at Kallaiyya's place,
you spent a couple of days with us
We might have not spoke much...
...We liked you a lot
As they say...
Spiritual,
Company...
Like that
Who are you?
Where have you come from?
What's your story?
We do not need any of those!
Devaki...
Stop it! Brother
It's nothing Arivu
Alas!
You please be quit
Look
If you don't have the courage to say
then be quite
He's making an effort to say!
[INHALES DEEPLY]
Arivu I like you a lot
I wish to live with you
That's what I meant
Don't add up things.
Um... There's no love though
Alas! Arivu please don't mind
I just came up with it!
Thank you
for offering me the opportunity to
spend the rest of my life with you.
- Apoorva!
- Huh
Please take master along with you today!
My wife is experiencing labour pain
I am leaving to go there directly
Alright sir
Master, could you please make
an adjustment for one day?
Feel free to reach me if anything's needed
Careful sir
Shall we leave?
Master please
Bye... Bye
[IN UNISON] Bye
Take care
This is my place
Come in
Um!
Master! Please come in
There are a lot of mosquitoes in the vicinity.
Sir has welcomed a baby boy
It calls for a cocktail party
tomorrow night after the rehearsals!
No one should miss being there!
[GIGGLES]
Come, let's have a look at Sir's baby, if you don't have any work
Let me wake up the master.
We will go together
Sir
Psst!
Sir
Wake up Sir
Sir
Um, Sir
Si...
Sir!
Huh!
Sir?!
Sir!
[GASPS]
Oh my god!
He lived a secretive life
We don't know anything about him
apart from the fact that he used to write detective novels
Like this...
...ten years ago
I met him at a play's set work!
He has a child's heart.
Hatred, selfishness, ego...
...he had nothing
He's so cute sir
What have you named him?
- Hey
- [GASPS]
He was born just yesterday.
Will he think of a name suddenly after it's born?
We already have a name in mind!
Likewise, sir would have thought of something!
Isn't it sir?
Arivu
Arivu!
Name is quite unique
My name is Arivu
He had written a story called Aganthuka
The main character in that story is Arivu.
When I read that story...
...I liked the name a lot!
I had already decided by then.
If it's a baby boy,
then I would name him Arivu
Did that story get published?
Nope
He used to write stories while he was drunk
Nothing has been published
I liked this story out of
a few that he has written.
It's...
...a story of a time traveller
That time traveller's name is Arivu
Sir can I get that story?
Yes he's kept couple of files in my home
I will check if it's there in it
"Haunting curiosities"
- Sir,
- Huh "wear myriad faces."
- Greetings
- "wear myriad faces."
Hello
You?
"The mind, a dense woodland,"
I am Arivu
"The mind, a dense woodland,"
I have come from Mysore
"The mind, a dense woodland,"
Arivu...
""Harbours a mystical creature within."
...He had captivated me in our first encounter
"Harbours a mystical creature within."
In just a couple of hours of talking
"To whom will you render toll when the path finds no conclusion?"
I felt a strong connection with him
"To whom will you render toll when the path finds no conclusion?"
"To whom will you render
toll when the path finds no conclusion?"
Hm-hmm
Hm, I am typing
Tch! Not that
What do you feel about Arivu?
You tell me how you feel about him.
Um... I liked him a lot
He has some uniqueness about him
He attracted me a lot
B-But...
...I don't know about him
Is caste a problem?
Tch!
Not like that
I don't know how to express that to you.
One day...
- ...it was raining
- Hm
Your sister-in-law was working at the garments in front of my office
[GIGGLES]
Until the rain stopped...
...we stood under the office's ledge
We both got introduced to each other
We got close in just two hours of our meeting
Hm
I know that
You guys got married within the next two months
But still-
-Reason is powerless...
...in the expression of love
What is felt, that should be told
Eyes might lie...
...but heart doesn't
"A joyous spinning top, having
severed ties with the leash of misery."
"Is spinning through life, much like
the Earth whirls on its axis."
You have a bond with this town
"Is spinning through life, much like the Earth whirls on its axis"
Hence, this town is not letting you go.
"After deciphering the script of time,"
I go by the name of Devaki
"After deciphering the script of time,"
I go by the name of Arivu
"Curiosities persist, querying the mysteries ahead"
All the humans are equal
"Curiosities persist, querying the mysteries ahead"
All the ideologies that place men above women.
We have rejected all traditions.
...we have denied
He said, there's no one in Mysore
Even business is not yielding much
I will stay in this house
He said that he will look for some job here
I got him a job in the press where I was working
The doctor said that the chances of having a baby are less.
Sperm count is low
Tried every medicine, Arivu
English, Ayurveda
In the end, I even tried the local medicines
Doctors said there will be adverse effects
Hence I left it
I am not saddened by that, Arivu
We can consider adoption if we don't have children
What saddens me is
...Society will speak ill of Yashoda.
That she's incapable...
...Childless
Gopal sir
There's no point in worrying about the world.
We have to confront certain things
Calm down
- Yashu
- Uh-huh
Can you make me some coffee?
Will do
One character is bothering me
Are you crazy?
Huh?
Gopal
I feel we shouldn't adopt a child right now.
Can we wait for two more years please?
I made a solemn vow to the goddess.
She will definitely save us
The god and vows...
...will not work
I cannot...
I cannot give you a child
This is the truth Yashu...
...that I am incapable
Um...
Damn!
[GROANS SHARPLY]
I don't comprehend what I saw and what occurred there
I couldn't understand it
I went to the place where the suitcase was
Arivu
Arivu
There was a vial there
upon which it was written "Play with time."
When I opened the suitcase
It previewed unable to access
I couldn't understand anything
Brother
Did you see Arivu?
I cannot find him since last night.
Brother I am asking you
Hm
Huh!
He went to Mysore
Huh?!
He mentioned that he has some pending work.
He said that he will be back after completing the work.
Did he say so?!
He always used to inform me before going out.
He was with me in the room till midnight
Um! He did not inform me anything!
You were asleep dear
He informed me
Some one had visited from the town
He was in pretty urgency
He will be back
When I opened the suitcase
which Arivu had left.
I tried to find a clue!
"Can a ship truly find its destination,
without plumbing the depths unknown?"
"Is it mandatory to unravel the origin of life's voyage?"
"Shall not the eclipse once more shadow
the light born to defy darkness?"
"The shadow of death lurks,
yearning to challenge every ray of light."
Mr.Shastry can we travel in time?
I read couple of books today
I'm asking because I saw few evidences of time travelling in that book.
It's only possible in fictional stories
As of present-day human practices,
...time travel is not feasible.
That too...
If we ever had proof of time travel
[LAUGHS SOFTLY]
...it's all crap!
[LAUGHS SOFTLY]
What about a watch!
Or...
...is there a possibility
of time travel with eyedrops?
Gopal
Which brand of alcohol did you have last night?
[CHUCKLES]
[CHUCKLES] You're talking weird!
[CHUCKLES]
Mom
Did father have a sister?
Sister?
No
Why do you ask?
Devaki
Was she married?
Oh Devaki
She passed away due to an illness at the hermitage.
Arivu
Do you know someone by the name of Arivu?
Apoorva
Come home we'll speak
So...
Devaki was married
No. She... at the hermitage.
Arivu
Do you know someone by the name of Arivu!?
What happened?
Why are you communicating differently today?
How much have you lied to me, mother?
Why did you hide all this from me?
At least tell me now
Arivu
Appu come to town, I wish to see you...
Do you know someone by the name of Arivu?
My leg is aching a lot
I need an answer
I don't know anyone Apoorva
I need an answer
Come home, we will speak
- Apoorva...
- I need an answer
Come home...
I need it now
Arivu is your father
Devaki is your mother
I am the one who raised you
[SOBS] Apoorva
Appu
I didn't share all this, thinking it might make you feel sad.
Where is my father now?
Arivu never returned
...after he left the house!
Devaki
Devaki
[SOBS SOFTLY]
Apoorva how did you get to know about Arivu?
The truth has to come out one day, Isn't it?
Deva...
Mother
What happened to my mother?
After Arivu left
The environment of our house turned different
Devaki
Gopal felt guilty of ruining Devaki's life!
Moreover Devaki...
was hoping for Arivu's return someday
Devaki was eight months pregnant
That night, there were thunderstorms in Rayadurga.
Gopal had went out for work
[GROANS]
[PAINFUL GROAN] Sister-in-law
[PAINFUL GROANS AND MOANS]
Sister-in-law
Sister-in-law
Devaki
Devaki!
Alas! Oh My!
What happened dear?
Nothing will happen
Calm down
Nothing will happen
Slowly... Slowly
What's happening?
Wait a minute
Wait a minute, I will be back
Sister-in-law
[PAINFUL GROANS AND MOANS]
Damn this wind!
The lantern is not lighting up!-Sister-in-law!
Sister-in-law
Devaki I am coming dear
Wait
Damn!
Devaki
Devaki! Stay strong!
Wait a minute
Sister-in-law
[STAMMERS] C... Child is coming out
Devaki
Devaki wake up
Nothing will happen
Child is coming out
Calm down a bit
The child will come out of the womb at any moment
Devaki
Devaki
Calm down dear
Alas! What should I do?
Devaki... Devaki!
Devaki!
Gopal is also not at home!
What shall I do?
Devaki be awake dear
Open your mouth
D-Devaki!
Open your mouth Devaki!
Hey!
What shall I do now?
Gopal also is not at home!
Devaki
Devaki
Devaki
Devaki
Devaki wake up
Wake...
Doctor said...
...The mother passed away before giving birth.
The child is fortunate to be alive.
The child was born from the womb of a deceased woman.
[SOBS]
The questions have begun to torment me.
It's a lot to take in
Dad!
You're not wrong!
Why did you leave us behind!
The time traveller Arivu, who's responsible for bringing you, me, and my mother to this state
I've found him!
I won't leave him
Dad!
Dad!

Apoorva listen to me
Apoorva please
Please

"Destiny rules us!"
Nothing can be pre-determined!
It looks good!
Keep it there
That's a sin stuck to the nation caused by a murder!
Is the mould proper?
Um...
...it's little big
- Hey Satya
- Huh
Say it dude
Whose murder?
Did the lord not name him?
Hey Satya
Are you lost?
Take your dialouges properly
Sir also said the same thing
- What are you doing Satya?
- Nothing
- Give me the phone
- Why?
-Give me the phone
-Why?
Damn you!
[INDISTINCT SHOUTS]
Hey Micheal
Hey Apoorva!
Kitty!
[INDISTINCT SHOUTS]
What happened Kitty?!
Dude leave him
[INDISTINCT SHOUTS]
Leave me
Leave me dude
- Leave me
- Come here
Stop it Apoorva
He was recording you!
Hey leave me
I was just reading the script
And he's thrashing me for no reason!
How dare you lie
[INDISTINCT SHOUTS]
Enough!
Do you consider yourself a bloody goon?
Kitty! Take him away!
Hey leave me
I didn't like how you behaved Swapna!
He was wrong
Damn!
You didn't have a liking for him from the beginning
You find fault with him even when he's just reading the script
Satya haven't done anything wrong
you shouldn't have physically confronted him
Please understand
Kudos
It's all my fault
I will kill you if you call again
Yeah really! You'll even kill me
The offensive language, you used
Hey hang up
Did I call?
You had called me!
You can hang up
Sure, I will hang up
Why should I disturb you?
Satya might call...
...You guys might have a lot to speak!
Wow!
Now I am beginning to understand your perspectives
I was with you till date!...
- Your heart may be filled with negativity...
- Hey, hang up
Apoorva
Green tea
Luckily, it has come out good today!
I don't have to know
anything else about you
I don't wish to know the reason behind your actions of following me too!
Please leave
I am at peace after leaving everything behind!
I was waiting for the right moment
I couldn't bear to wait for so long Apoorva
Listen to me once
You don't have to say anything
Nor I will listen to you!
Please leave from here
You have to know this
Please will you leave from here?
Don't you want to know
about me Apoorva?
You are my dad
I know this truth
I have no interest in knowing anything further!
That's enough
I need not to know anything more.
Please
let me live as I am
Allow me to remain as I am.
You have to know this Apoorva
I am not anyone but
YOU!
In the next six months
Yashoda will pass away
Even Swapna will leave you
You will be placed well
You will have a good earning
But...
...You'll have no one with you!
Ioniliness starts huanting you
In the year 2032!...
...regarding work process you will move to Kolkata
You will get to meet a man named Arbindu Sen
Humanity, love had perished
Life had become a source of agony for me!
Here, no one belongs to me
Hm!
This is also not my town
Despite my desire to move to Bangalore,
...the situation remains the same there too.
I obtained the eyedrops with assistance from Arbindu Sen, illegally
Thank you
Vremya had two features
The first one was...
...the longer you hold the blink...
...You can exist in an alternate timeline
Second is
one way ticket
A small ring will be installed to your body
After which...
By applying the eyedrops and blinking your eyes...
...it's the end
Until you close your eyes for one last time!
Or till the ring breaks,
...you will not be able to return
That was the moment when Apoorva transformed into Arivu
In the search of lost human bonds,
friendship and love...
...I travelled to the year 1996
through one way ticket
Sir
Greetings
Hello
Who are you?
I'm Arivu
and am from Mysore
Arivu?!
Nice name
Me and Devaki got together and married!
We cherished and cared for each other deeply, finding fulfilment in our bond
When I was with her
my senses seemed to fade away, captivated by the depth of our connection
I began experiencing an abundance of love, friendship, and family bonding
I embarked on a temporary journey, driven by the hope of reuniting with Revathi, Kallaiyya's lost daughter.
That was the wrong decision I took!
The ring broke as my body accelerated while attempting to save Revathi.
In that timeline, survival becomes limited to just one year once the ring is broken
You've given me everything
I desired O'Raama
Everything has been placed
as you wished O'Raama
Since that fateful morning,
I had been receiving a notification that the battery's life has expired!
I won't ask you not to give dificulties but
Bless me with the strength to endure the pain O'Raama
My heart pines for more, O' Raama
Where else is so tranquil as with you, O' Raama
Rama... Rama... Rama... Rama
[PANTS AND GRUNTS]
After seven months...
I met Arbindu
It proved to be extremely challenging for civilians to find Vremya
I'll search it out it, he said
After which...
I never met him
After an extensive search, I finally managed to locate the Vremya tracer.
I believed it would be beneficial to utilize the Vremya tracer to track and connect with the suitcase I used to use.
It led me to the year 2001
I discovered that there was no access to the previous years
I travelled to 2001
Gopi sir
Oh... Time traveller
When did you come?
Huh?!
Time traveller?!
-Leave from here
-No
I will let you know everything!
Let me explain you everything!
Sir, Please understand
What?
What should I make of this revelation?
Huh?
Please listen to me once
There's nothing left to talk
Yashu will be here in a moment!
Let's meet near the river in the morning!
Gopal sir, where's Devaki?
Please refrain from causing any further trouble.
Gopal sir, I want to see Devaki once
Devaki...
...We are taking care of
Devaki's child Arivu
Please don't take the child away from us!
Please leave
Child?!
What are you talking about?
I earnestly wish to see Devaki once, please.
We have lost Devaki
What happened to Devaki, Gopal sir
Gopal sir
Gopal sir
What happened to Devaki, Gopal sir
What happened to Devaki, Gopal sir
We have lost Devaki
- What?
- Leave me
- Gopal sir... Gopal sir!
- Leave me
Please... Please... Please!
Hey!
I want to see the child once
It's our child
Leave me
Gopal sir!
I want to see the child once
It's not possible
Gopal!
I want to see my child once
Gopal!
Give me back my child Gopal
[GASPS AND GROANS]
Leave me
- I did not die on that day!
- Gopal!
I had to return to the year 2034!
I was along again!
You mean!
...you are son of Devaki
You mean, I!
Did I sleep with my mother
and gave birth to myself!?
No!
I won't believe this
I really won't believe this
Believe it or not
That's the truth Apoorva
This is a loop
I find myself struggling to stop it, despite making numerous attempts.
Arivu and Devaki will unite
Apoorva will take birth!
Apoorva becomes alone
He will embark on a time-travel journey in search of love.
Apoorva will again become Arivu
Arivu and Devaki will unite
Vremya was banned in India
I haven't come across any comparable product to it.
In 2054...
...I tried to end my life
But...
My death will not resolve this issue.
To stop Apporva becoming Arivu
I felt of doing a final try
I received a response to my message from a website named "Troista" on the dark web
By taking one way ticket
I travelled back thirty-three years!
That is
...I travelled to 2021
Since I couldn't access the previous years
Apoorva
I can't change my past
But...
...you can change your future
I have come here to end this!
If Apoorva is to avoid becoming Arivu,
...you must die
I tried to kill you many times!
My heart couldn't accept it.
I wanted to inform you about this earlier.
If you don't want to commit a mistake by being me!
...this is the only option Apoorva
I only have one request
Give me a day
I will come to your place tomorrow
Mom, how are you?
How are you Appu?
You haven't uttered a word since you discovered that.
Did you eat?
[SNIFFLES]
Come home, Appu
I wish to see you
[SOBS]
It might be preferable for certain questions to remain unanswered.
It would have been better,
if many things remained as questions
"My dear"
"Your presence brings immense joy."
"When your gaze nestles nearer."
"My innermost thoughts await a new dawn."
"Your silence has transformed into a whisper."
"When we finally meet on that final day."
"Rescue me and commence a fresh voyage."
"May all my contemplations grant you the blessings."
Appu
What did you feel about me asking time!
I was pretty confirmed that you were interested too!
Confirm?
Do not blabber!
Tch!
Don't I know about you?
If you were not sure!
...You would have denied my proposal!
When you asked for some more time!
...I was 90 percent sure that you would agree!
Tch!
Swapna
Sorry
Hey!
I had mentioned that I wanted to show you something!
Wait!
What's this?
This is my mother's engagement ring!
Had I not told you?
An unexpected force intervened and saved my mother when she attempted to commit suicide
She found this ring over there!
She requested my father to use the same ring during their engagement.
She casually mentioned this to me while we were having a conversation.
She had expressed her intention to give the same ring during my marriage as well.
So, I brought this to show you.
"It appears as though a fading flower has, for one final time, smiled in my direction."
"The sky that once adorned the heavens with a rangoli has now faded into a colorless canvas."
"Before fading away, please release the lingering emotions".
"I require no air for existence; love alone suffices."
Oh my love!
[SIGH PEACEFULLY]
Apoorva
I recommend trying it before it cools down.
Apoorva
[LAUGHING]
Hey!
Hey... Hey!
What are you doing?
My death will not resolve this issue.
You committed the mistake,
and now I should suffer the punishment?
Hey... Hey!
Don't get emotional.
-Please understand
-Why?
Are you afraid of death?
- My death won't change anything!
- Nothing has to change
You
Why did you come into my life?
Everything used to be fine before.
But...
...Nothing appears to be the way it was before.
Nothing will remain the way it used to be!
Look
Even if you kill me
You will not be able to
come out of this loop
You have to die for Apoorva to not become Arivu!
Why should I die?
You have to die
Hey... Hey... Hey... Hey!
[INHALES SHARPLY]
[GROANS]
Damn!
[SOBS SOFTLY]
[SOBS SOFTLY]
[SNIFFLES]
[SOBS SOFTLY]
Sinner in the womb
Sinner in the marriage
Oedipus! The sinner with blood on his hands!
O Light!
Light!
"Envelop me, oh light! For I have endured, even after everything has been revealed."
"Envelop me, oh light! For I have endured, even after everything has been revealed."
"May it be that our paths don't cross again."
"May it be that our paths don't cross again."
"I will kill my father
and will sleep with my mother", he said!
Gopal, do we have plenty of time?
The roads are not good too!
It may take half hour
That's fine Mr.Shastry,
We can reach
Shall we go?
On hearing that, I fled!
[IN UNISON] Is it?
Satya as king Oedipus
Harshita as Jocasta
