Mellisai (2026) Movie Script

Every single one of us
has a unique talent.
That's something even
we aren't aware of.
Someone would have
truly cherished us,...
...shown deep concern,
been our first fan...
...and made us realise that.
It could be our sister,
father or mother.
It could be our friends too.
It could be our son
or daughter.
To that first fan,
I dedicate the next song.
Vidhya!
Hey, Vidhya!
-What?
Do you know what Yazhini said?
She wants me to participate
in a singing reality show.
I loved to sing
ever since I was young.
But what can I do?
My father was very strict.
I had to opt for the civil service.
Life changed.
But now, I'm free to do
what I like, aren't I?
So, Deepak must not do
what he likes to do.
But you are doing
the same thing to him...
...that your father did to you.
That's different,
this is different.
Don't compare them.
-I feel this is right.
You'll never listen to me.
Do as you wish.
I've decided.
I have decided too.
They are calling you upstairs.
Go straight this way.
The stairs are over there.
The lift isn't working.
Okay?
-Okay. Come on, let's go.
The lift isn't working
in such a luxurious hotel.
I can't. Where is he? Till then....
-Hey, faster!
Go on! Move it!
Brother Guna wants you to go
to the factory. Here!
It's okay.
I know where it is.
You could have told us earlier.
We wouldn't have waited
for so long.
He just called me.
When you need money,
you won't complain...
...no matter where we ask you
to come or how long it takes.
Then we'll have to chase
after you, won't we?
Don't go there and talk like this.
It's for your own good.
Hey! Why are you getting
so worked up?
The dream
is the only thing we own.
When it comes to money, we always
have to depend on someone else.
Till the end.
Hey! Don't panic, just talk.
-Okay, brother.
We'll handle it, okay?
-Sir!
They are calling you inside.
Deepak, come on, let's go.
-Okay, brother.
Vanakkam, brother.
Welcome, Prabha. How are you?
-I'm good, brother.
How about you?
-I'm fine.
How are you, sir?
Are you doing well?
Hey! Turn it off!
How are you, sir?
-I'm good, Deepak.
Do you know
why I called you here?
It has been quite a long time
since you borrowed the money.
And you've missed interest payments
for the last few months.
I have your house documents,
so there's no problem.
Do you remember why
I gave you this money?
Yes, sir, I remember.
I haven't forgotten.
Perhaps I shouldn't have given you
the money based on emotion.
It's my fault.
-Do you think I'll cheat you?
What is this, sir?
I will not cheat you.
Hey, what are you saying?
Sorry, brother.
Can I tell you something?
Just transfer the property
rights to me.
Sir?
It's a good area,
and it's developing quickly.
You'll also get some cash in hand.
Sir, that's the house
we grew up in.
I was only waiting to get it fixed
before moving in, sir.
But before I could do that,
so many things happened.
Please, sir.
-Give us some more time, brother.
Please, brother.
-How much time, Prabha?
No, sir.
Please consider.
I took money from Guna
for my business startup...
...by mortgaging
our house documents.
It's a rapidly developing area.
My mom and dad worked incredibly
hard to buy this house.
But now, it looks like
we're going to lose it.
Come on! 5, 6, 7, 8!
Left! Right!
5, 6, 7, 8!
What are you doing?
5, 6, 7, 8!
Yazhini, the phone is ringing.
Come on! One more time!
5, 6, 7, 8!
Yes, Deepak.
-Yazhini, where are you?
I'm in the dance class.
-I came to see Brother Guna.
I'm afraid we might lose the house.
-Hey, what are you saying?
Yes. I don't know what to do next.
So I plan to go and see
the house just one more time.
Okay, wait,
I'll come with you too.
If only we had a 'reverse' option
in all our lives,...
...how wonderful that would be.
We could go back
in our lives...
...and make sure the events that
hurt us the most never happened.
The place we are going to now
is the place where we lived...
...for many years, right from
the time we were born, our home.
That house is filled
with so many memories,...
...moments we'll never
be able to forget.
Every single word
has its own meaning...
Softly, the lines come together...
A beautiful dawn
that inspires poetry...
The fragrance of music
that wafts within the heart...
This universe yearns for love,
it will search and seek...
A melody that wanders
and flows deep within the soul...
When two clouds shatter
and collide in the sky...
As rain kisses the earth,
the season changes...
The dewdrops will meet
and merge in between...
The grassy fields will wake up
and stretch with a yawn...
The moment the earth soaks up
the moisture and swoons...
The truth will sprout anew
every single morning...
The flowing water
will pause in its course...
The silent sound of lives
beginning to bloom...
The comforting trace
of a mother's lap...
A beautiful dawn
that inspires poetry...
The fragrance of music
that wafts within the heart...
A beautiful dawn
that inspires poetry...
The fragrance of music
that wafts within the heart...
Look at this place.
Stuck between
accepting the past...
...and being unable
to move past it,...
...we suffered a great deal.
Now, once again,...
...we are under the compulsion
to peer into those past events.
This is my beloved dad,
Mr. Rajan.
My favourite. He was
the PE teacher in our school.
My dad and I used to sing
a lot of songs together.
We had a lot of fun.
Do you know what
I asked my dad once?
Dad, I'm going to ask you
something, but you can't say no.
What do you want to ask?
I can ask you anything,
but you can't say no.
I won't say no.
Now, go to sleep.
Promise?
Sing my bedtime song.
I'll go to sleep.
Oh, my dear child...
My treasure...
Close your eyes and sleep...
We're in a singer's home,
yet nobody is singing.
Let's all sing!
1, 2, 3!
Happy birthday to you...
Happy birthday to you, Yazhini...
Happy birthday to you...
The first bite goes to my dad.
Come closer, dad.
Happy birthday, dear Yazhini...
Let's talk about this later.
First, give me some cake.
You promised you'd not say no.
-Keep quiet, give me the cake.
What happened?
-What is it, Mr. Rajan?
What is Yazhini saying?
-Nothing, madam.
Why is she upset?
-Hey, Yazhini.
Yazhini!
-What's wrong?
One minute, ma'am.
I'll be back.
Yazhini!
What happened, dear?
See what I got for you.....
What happened to you, dear?
-You said you would not say no.
And for that,
you're asking for this?
Dad, go on.
No, dear.
-What's this before the guests?
Nothing, I'll bring her, you go.
-Yazhini, come.
I'll handle her. Go on.
-Dad, please!
If I go there at this age and
get rejected in the competition,...
...I won't be able to show
my face at school.
Trust me, dad,
you'll win for sure.
Mr. Rajan, you did a simple party
with only some mixture and a cake.
Irritating guy!
-Keep quiet!
What is your daughter saying?
-Nothing, sir.
You carry on, sir.
I'll come.
Please, dad.
Okay, dear. Give me two days,
and I'll let you know.
Wow! The studio is so huge.
Finally, I managed to get
my dad to agree.
Both of us went
to the first audition together.
It was an unforgettable day.
My name is Charles.
-Then, who is your Diana?
I'm here to find my Diana.
-So, you're not here to sing.
Looking at him, I think he must
have come here looking...
...for a bride for the groom
in the 'Kalyaana Maalai' set.
If you go further up,
you'll find the set, sir.
I think you've come here
by mistake.
This is a singing talent show set.
It's a dream for everyone here.
Will you win this title?
I'm only here because
my daughter wished for it.
I'm just here to
participate, that's all.
That day, my father was extremely
nervous at the audition.
But I was
even more nervous than he was.
Sir, hi.
-Hello.
Hello.
-Vanakkam. What is your name?
My name is Rajan.
Here's what my dad
was stressed about.
If he didn't get selected
in the audition,...
...he was scared everyone
at school would mock him.
But who is he?
My dad.
Just listen to how he sings.
When the cool,
gentle breeze caresses me...
I see a myriad
of hues in my heart...
When the moonlight cools
the night...
Colourful thoughts besiege
my heart...
I was listening to you sing
with my eyes closed.
How is my dad's voice?
Didn't I tell you?
The colours change
with our thoughts...
All okay?
I was not as close
to my dad as Yazhini was.
She was my dad's pet.
But for me,
it has always been my mom.
My mom also worked
at the same school as my dad.
She was the maths teacher.
Madam, in the Cartesian
form equation.....
I've a small doubt
in this derivation.
It'll be great if you
could explain it to me.
Do you have doubts too, sir?
What will your students do?
Ma'am, you're the expert.
Yazhini wants me to dedicate
a song to my wife.
Which song should I choose?
-Sir, 'Evan Di Unna Pethaan'.
Hey!
-Sorry, sir.
Sir, 'Devathayai Kanden'.
Sir, Azhagaana Raatchasiye?
Sir, you tell us.
Is sister an angel
or a beautiful she-devil?
She's definitely
a beautiful she-devil.
Where is Yazhini?
-She has gone to tuition.
Deepak?
-Deepak has gone out.
What is it?
Move.
What are you doing?
-Nothing.
Hey, go to sleep.
-Wait, mom.
Despite asking so many times,
you still won't teach me.
Dad has started singing, hasn't he?
Go to sleep, mom.
You're so rude!
Vidhya!
What?
The principal wants to talk about
Deepak. How long to wait for you?
Oh, yes.
-What happened, sir?
Did Deepak do anything wrong?
-No, Deepak is a brilliant boy.
Actually, we're here to talk
about his brilliance.
He has developed an App.
Sorry, I forgot to introduce them.
She's Miss Joe.
Hello, sir. Hello, ma'am.
-Hello.
He's Mr. Divesh.
-Hi, sir. Hi, ma'am.
They work in the HR department
at a software company.
They want your son
to work for their company.
So, we're here
to discuss that.
I don't get it, sir.
Sir, major companies
like Google and Amazon...
...are now focused
on hiring young talents.
Similarly, our company
has a 'Catch Them Young' program...
...dedicated to recruiting
young talents.
Deepak is one such
talented young guy.
We saw Deepak at a tech fest
that was held recently.
The one that was held in Siruseri?
-Exactly, ma'am.
His coding and app-creating
skills are excellent.
And his aptitude
is unbelievable.
That is why we want
to recruit him.
I understand the opportunity,...
...but why should my son
work at this age?
I participated in a tech
festival held at my school once.
I've been great
at coding since I was a kid.
So, through a program called
'Catch Them Young',...
...the company was
interested in hiring me.
But my father wasn't
interested in it at all.
But it was my mother
who fought with my father...
...and put in every effort
for me to join the company.
I'm glad to hear that.
Please give us a little time
to think it over and decide.
Miss Joy told me that even
after getting their degrees,...
...many engineers
are still jobless.
It seems very rare for someone
to get such a golden opportunity.
What opportunity?
He still has another year
of school left.
A farewell. He has three years
of college ahead of him.
Then there are
his college days.
There's a lot for him
to enjoy in life.
Why rush to cage him
in an office room?
He doesn't need any of this.
Just go to sleep.
Although my dad said no,...
...he couldn't do anything
against my mom's stubbornness.
I ended up joining the company.
Deepak, come.
-Go on, mom.
Hello, ma'am.
-Hello.
Hello.
-Hi, Deepak!
Welcome, boy.
-Hello, sir.
All right, Joe,
take Deepak up to his floor.
The day I joined, my mom
was more nervous than I was.
But this was
a new experience for me.
Hi, Deepak.
-Hi, dude.
Hi.
The whole office is talking
about you. You are rocking!
That's why we came to meet you.
-Had lunch?
No, not yet.
-In that case, lunch is on you.
But I didn't bring any money.
-You didn't bring money?
Boy, had Horlicks?
-No.
Okay, Deepak, bye.
-Bye.
Hey! What's with that look?
Does she look beautiful?
Nothing like that, sister.
-Sister? I'll break your teeth.
What's going on here?
Looks like you're cooking a feast.
Yes, Deepak is starving,
so I'm making a meal for him.
Okay.
Does he have to go
to the office every day?
Well, if it's an office job,
he has to go every day.
His principal promised to take care
of his education formalities.
It's enough
if he only does his exams.
All his assignments
are going to fall on me now.
Can you please help me?
How is the job going for him?
-It's going well.
It seems the seniors are coming
to him to clear their doubts.
He's my son.
-Look at you!
How about his salary?
-What do you mean?
He's still a kid, right?
That's why I asked.
His salary will be
credited to my account.
Monthly, Rs45,000.
-Okay.
I'm planning to deposit it
in a fixed deposit.
Is that okay with you?
Super.
Aren't you hungry?
-I'm famished!
Mom!
-Hey, wait! I need to cook.
My dad won all the rounds
and became everyone's favourite.
I was very proud of him.
You sang beautifully, perfectly
blending the tune and the rhythm.
Thank you.
-I'm so impressed.
Thank you.
-Thank you. God bless you.
Yes! White rose from my side.
-Thank you.
May I tell you something, sir?
No chance, sir.
Your singing is truly phenomenal.
May I tell you something, sir?
I'm telling you the truth
from the bottom of my heart.
Oh, just spit it out already!
-What is it?
Sir, you are an excellent singer,
but you're the worst PE teacher!
Hey, catch him!
-Hit his legs, sir.
Go! Get back to your classes.
Go! Get back to your classes.
-It's Miss Sarah's class.
Come on!
Mom, coffee!
-Coming!
Who switched
on my computer? Mom!
Hey! Why are you shouting?
-What is it?
Who switched on my computer?
What is that? A cow or a horse?
-I don't know.
Why does it look like that?
-It's an elephant, dad.
Is this your work?
-Yes.
I've told you many times
not to use my computer.
It's not just for you,
it's for me too.
Don't argue with me,
I'll get angry.
I will. What will you do?
-I'll hit you then!
Hey!
What happened?
-He's hitting her in front of me.
Mom, I'm earning now.
Buy a computer for me.
What's wrong with him?
-He's a pain.
Isn't she wrong? Why do you always
find fault with me only?
Do you even understand
what you just said?
Leave me alone!
I'm talking to you.
Where are you going?
Deepak!
I have caused
my dad a lot of pain.
When I think about it now,
I feel so ashamed.
I feel now that I should never
have caused him that kind of pain.
Vidhya! Where are my clothes?
-It's right there, look properly.
I need to shower now.
Deepak is getting ready
and I'm cooking.
Can you please look for it?
-Mom, where is my blue ribbon?
Look for it yourself.
Every time you lose something,
you make my life impossible.
Deepak, I've kept the eggs
in the green box.
Don't forget to eat them.
-Why does he get two eggs?
Hi, sir. Why are you sitting
in the canteen?
Nothing, Prabha.
I came here to eat.
Didn't you eat at home, sir?
How are the arrangements
for the culturals coming along?
Fine, sir.
Why not try this, sir?
A bachelor's cooking.
Okay, I'll talk to you later.
-I'll talk.
Hey! Who was that?
-A friend, brother.
Friend?
Is it your girlfriend?
-Oh, God! Brother!
What's wrong with your face?
-It's not like that, brother.
Brother, please stop!
-I know this face.
What do you know?
He was in love
with a girl named Swetha.
Even back then,
he used to drool like this.
Who is that? You never mentioned.
-That's an old story, brother.
Brother! I'll tell you.
-Tell me. I'm listening.
When he had just started the job,
there was a girl named Swetha.
Swetha? Who is Swetha?
-Mom!
What?
-Please don't tell her.
What is it?
-Nothing!
It's nothing, mom.
-Who is Swetha?
A girl in his office.
She asked him for some
help with a doubt.
He was telling about her.
-She's right.
You're a fraud.
And you're a fraud too.
What about dad?
-He's the biggest fraud.
Thank you. Shall I tell mom?
-Please!
You mustn't fight with me anymore.
I can also use the computer.
Before you touch it,
you must get my permission.
Okay.
-If you break this rule,...
...I'll tell mom.
-Okay.
Happy birthday to you...
Happy birthday to Swetha...
Happy birthday to you...
Do I eat this chocolate?
Love!
Get lost!
What magic is this, the very soul
melts like the moon...
Hi!
The swiftness of one's breath
turns into a raging storm...
The dew upon the lips
pours down like the rain...
It pours down without halt...
It flows like water...
A mere glance from the eyes
is enough to start it...
Dancing like a frenzy
in the dead of night...
It dances wildly,
shaking its head free...
It searches
for a brand new world...
A mobile phone?
A new phone?
My mom's birthday 05/11.
Staring into the ceiling,
a brand new tune will be heard...
The sound
of the mobile phone ringing...
Sends the whole body
into shivers...
The whole body
starts to tremble...
It stutters
trying to tell the truth...
Hey! Who is messaging you?
Why are you running out?
I already told you, didn't I?
It's a friend.
Hi!
-What do you mean?
What is that message about?
That girl was already committed
to Madhu, a guy in their office.
He didn't even know that and
was still trying to romance her.
To make things worse, someone in
his office who disliked the girl...
...took his phone and sent
her inappropriate messages.
Everyone there thought he was
the one who sent the messages...
...and he ended up
in trouble.
If we check the CCTV footage,
we can figure it out, right?
Look how he's slithering
away like a snake.
What is he doing?
-He's picking up the mobile.
Look, Sanjeev is the one
who sent those messages.
Sounds like you got
severely rejected, didn't you?
What?
-Was I the only one who got it?
Dad got it too.
-Sir too?
From who?
-From my mom.
He spoke to a girl on the reality
show and got it from mom.
I'm always around.
I didn't know about this.
When did this happen?
-It's nothing like that.
Can you please shut up?
-Wait. Be quiet for a moment.
That's new.
What's the story?
There was a girl named Vaishnavi
in the reality show, remember?
Vaishnavi? Reality show?
-Shut up now!
Yes!
-Keep quiet.
Mr. Rajan, looks like you're
still feeling cold after the song.
You're sitting
so close to her.
If you're feeling cold, tell us.
We'll switch off the AC.
Please sit a little
further away, sir.
You'll be in hot soup
if madam watches the show at home.
Vaishnavi. When is
our next round?
She's my co-participant.
Next round refers
to the competition's next round.
What's the password for this?
-When did it have a password?
Good night.
-Give it to me.
How is Yazhini?
-I'd have told her about Yazhini.
Good night. You didn't reply.....
-Hey!
Did I respond to her?
She's the one messaging me.
Hey! Vidhya!
Silly girl!
Why is she messaging me now?
Vidhya!
I left my phone near the well.
Can you bring it inside?
Okay.
Oh, wow! Keep going!
-Once, after the show ended,...
...he gave the girl a ride home
because she couldn't get a cab.
Mom got really angry.
-Is it?
What's this magic,
my breath falters a little...
Youth is just a colour,
it pleads for just one gaze...
Shall we go?
Within every breath
a melody and tune can be heard...
The rhythm on the lips flows,
touching the melody...
It goes on,
touching every note...
It sings,
it sings a new melody...
The space a finger
finds is enough...
At midnight,
fate slightly oversteps...
It crosses,
fate crosses a little...
It clouds and joins the moon...
A slight tremble in the hand,
a finger touches...
With music, the sound echoes
through the whole body...
The whole body trembles...
It stumbles at the sight...
You're telling me
all this stuff.
But I had no idea
about any of it.
All I know is
about Mr. Kannan.
For all the pain he caused,
your dad absolutely hated him.
Yes, Mr. Kannan.
He was the New P, right?
New P?
-Yes.
Yes, that's exactly how dad
had saved it on his phone.
Your dad was actually
making fun of him.
That's not New P,
it was the New Principal.
I see.
Good evening to everyone.
After working
for 28 years as a great teacher,...
...Mr. Chidambara Kumar
is retiring today.
This is his felicitation
and farewell function.
We heartily welcome Mr. Kannan,
who is joining us today.
Mr. Chidambara Kumar, who guided
us, will address us now.
Good evening to all.
-Good evening, sir.
For the past 27 years.....
-It's 28, sir.
Oh, my God! Okay. Yes.
-We will not forget, sir.
It's incredible how fast 28 years
of my career have flown by.
I owe it all to having
colleagues like you.
I can't take all the credit
for having done such a good job.
All the teachers who worked here
are also responsible for this.
In recent times, something
important has been happening here.
It's something that will bring
pride to both this school and me.
Do you know what it is?
Yes, sir.
-Mr. Rajan!
Mr. Rajan is going to win
'The Voice' title soon.
Thanks a lot, sir.
-Mr. Rajan, please come.
I would love to hear
you sing as well.
We want to hear too, sir.
Please come, sir. It's our request.
Mr. Rajan!
Kannamma, what is it...
Tell me, my dearest girl...
Girl, stop when
your man says stop...
My beauty,
you shouldn't run from me...
I've put the bolt on it,
and I've asked without asking...
And came running after you...
Hey girl,
stop when your man says stop...
My beauty,
you shouldn't run from me...
Hey girl...
My beauty...
-Enough!
Sir, what a performance.
We enjoyed it so much.
We just couldn't stop dancing.
How are you doing, Brother Jayapal?
-I'm fine, sir.
How are you, sir? Tell me, sir.
-Fine.
Mr. Kannan has reduced the budget.
-Is it?
But you shouldn't cut down
on the costumes for that reason.
No worries, sir, we will supply
everything just as we usually do.
He's Prabha.
-Hi, sir.
He'll co-ordinate hereafter.
-Okay, sir.
Please go inside and see
which dresses you need, sir.
Here you go, brother. I've already
prepared the costume list myself.
Give me the costumes
from the list.
I'll check
and get the missing ones.
Okay, sir. Have a look inside.
-Okay.
Come.
-Sir, I'm going to kill Mr. Kannan.
Prabha, how is everything going?
-All good, sir.
Is everything okay?
Sir, he has asked
to change the stage setup.
Who?
-Mr. Kannan.
Where can we get that?
-In Parrys, Thambu Chetty Street.
Sir, why are you changing
the design?
Sir, Mr. Kannan asked me
to change it.
Excuse me, I'm in charge
of the culturals.
How can you change it
without my permission?
Sir, whose instructions
do I follow, yours or his?
Talk to him, sir.
-What is it, Ravi?
He's shouting for changing
the design, sir?
Wasn't this your request?
-Ask him to come...
...to school regularly. Got it?
He takes leave often...
...for the reality show.
First, tell him
to do his job properly.
Then he can ask about this.
He's asking questions
as if he is the principal.
Good morning, sir.
Sir, what's with that
wide-eyed man?
Charles, go and wait over there,
I'll call you shortly.
Mr. Rajan, go to the stage...
...and sing your song.
-Wait. Let the judges come,...
...I'll sing then.
-No, Mr. Rajan.
The judges will be late.
You sing.
Cameraman, are you ready?
-Ready, sir.
I'm tired, sir. I can't sing
until the judges arrive.
I'll sing after they come.
-No, sir.
I need some close-up footage.
Please go ahead and sing.
I'm telling you I can't do it, sir.
Why are you forcing me?
Won't you?
-Let the judges come.
What?
-I'll sing later.
What do you mean?
How can you say you can't sing?
Go sing.
-No, I won't.
The culturals is really
getting on my nerves.
Call Mr. Rajan.
-Sir, he didn't come today.
Okay, give him a call then.
I can't reach him, sir.
Sir, the giraffe costume
is going to take some time.
Why? Did you talk to Jayapal?
-Yes, he was the one who told me.
How can he say it will be late now?
-Sir, can you talk to him?
Okay, pass the phone to him.
-I'll pass it to him.
Here.
Yes, sir.
-Jayapal, will it take time?
Yes, sir.
-Why are you doing this, Jayapal?
Sir, I will give it to you,
but it will take some time.
Sir, the costume's neck needs
to be a bit longer.
Why are you
talking like this, sir?
You're saying the delay is because
the giraffe's neck is long.
Sir, I can only tell the truth.
-Dad!
I'm not sitting idle,
I'm working on it as we speak.
Didn't you know it had a long neck
when I placed the order?
How can you say that now?
-Dad!
Look, I want the costume
before tomorrow's rehearsal.
Hey! Can't you see
I'm on the phone?
Stop irritating me.
Get out of here.
The giraffe costume
must reach us tomorrow, sir.
Sir, you've already cut
the budget.
You're placing too much
pressure on me, sir.
Put the phone down.
The cultural program of this school
will commence shortly.
We can change the order, sir.
Tiny wings
are spreading out to soar...
Very good.
Superb performance.
Smiling spiders
are weaving their silky nets...
Like busy bees, colourful flowers
flutter and roam...
A king is hidden, disguised
in the attire of a queen...
All the best.
Perform well.
With shyness half-hidden,
the applause rings out widely...
Thala, Thalapathy entries,
whistles erupt...
Come on, Hari!
Wearing brand new disguises,
the little child is smiling...
The strength of women envisioned
by Bharathi can be seen...
Crossing through generations,
they seek their leader...
And their hearts beat
with fervour...
Hello, madam. Charu and Nivedhitha
should be placed at the very front.
Understood? Let the rest
line up at the back.
Who changed the order?
-Who else? It was Mr. Kannan.
Why are you changing it?
Don't change anything.
Let it stay that way.
Get moving, kids.
And the first
place goes to Ananya.
First place, Rakshitha.
Group dance, first place,
Moon Walkers.
Classical dance,
first prize, Priyanka.
Mono act,
first place, Rakshan.
Let's all give it up
for the winners.
Come on, everybody, clap.
Go get Mr. Rajan.
Sir, I don't know where he is.
-Where would he go?
Get him,
he'll be somewhere here.
Mr. Rajan.
I was searching for you, sir.
-Okay, bye, sir.
Why? What happened, sir?
-Mr. Kannan wants to see you, sir.
Tell him I can't come now.
-Sir?
I have a lot of work.
-He gave me an earful.
Sir, I must go to the rehearsal.
Say something and manage him.
I'm stuck
between these two guys.
Come to bed now, dear.
This is not good
for your health.
The children are already asleep.
It's so late.
Go to sleep now, I'll come.
In today's classical round,...
...Mr. Rajan sang a Telugu song
exceptionally well.
Neither of us can judge
if it was great or not,...
...because neither you
nor I know anything about music.
So, why not ask the professionals?
Mr. Rajan, I was eagerly
waiting for your song.
But you have disappointed me.
It wasn't up to the mark
I had expected.
I wonder what the voice
trainer's opinion is on it.
Sir, what are
your thoughts on it?
What happened?
You were great back there.
Sir, decide yourself.
I can't.....
You couldn't sustain
the notes when you tried.
That's how you must sustain
the notes when you perform.
But I don't know
what's gotten into you today.
You should know. We're so sorry.
-Thank you, sir.
Before I give you the results,...
...I think
I'll call upon Yogalakshmi...
...and Charles
on the stage, please.
Come quickly.
Unfortunately.....
-Charles and Yogalakshmi,...
...both of you
are going to the next round.
And our favourite.....
And unfortunately.....
-And unfortunately,...
...he's not going
to the next round.
Yes.
When did you come?
Had your dinner?
I've been rejected
from the show.
Go to bed.
But I don't know what's
gotten into you today.
You should know.
Mr. Rajan,
please come on to the stage.
Mr. Rajan,
please come to the stage.
Hello!
-Rajan,...
...where are you now?
-Sir, I had some work.
Rajan, I've made a decision.
Got it?
Here's what you should do.
Take a long leave.
Why take leaves now and then?
-No, sir.....
Why take permission so often?
No, sir. I'll come.
In the meantime,
what I'll do is,...
...I'll appoint
a temporary PT master.
I'll manage with him.
-Mr. Rajan, come to the stage now.
No, sir, I'll definitely come
to school tomorrow.
No, Rajan,
this is the right way.
For your personal work
and reality show,...
...I can't compromise
on the students' welfare.
Okay? I can't dance to your tunes.
The decision is mine.
I'm the principal
of the school, got it?
Thank you, Rajan. Bye.
-Sir!
Mr. Rajan, it's getting late.
Please come to the stage.
Mr. Rajan was with us
for so long.
His journey is ending here
with the classical round.
It makes me feel extremely sad
when I think about it.
I was disappointed my father
got rejected from the show.
At that age, I didn't even know
how to express it.
Hi, how are you?
-I'm good. And you?
She's grown up so fast.
-Yes.
You guys continue.
I need to use the restroom.
Okay, brother.
-Where is he going?
He's going to the restroom.
Had your lunch?
-Yes, I had.
Wait, I'll call you back.
Brother, pass me that bottle.
-Here.
Hello, who are you?
-Who is this guy? Hey, come!
Who are you guys?
Hello! I'm asking you!
Hey, who are you?
This is my house.
Your house?
What's this, brother?
Hey! This is where we booze.
What's bothering you? Let's go!
Hey, stop! Get out now!
-Hey!
Hey!
Hey! Hey, let him go!
Hey, let him go!
Hey, let him go, you buffalo!
Brother Prabha! Help us!
-What happened?
They are heading up
to the terrace with the bottle.
Hey, who are you guys?
Get out! This is their house.
We came to booze.
-What?
This is where we booze.
-This is their house!
Did you make this your spot
just because nobody stays here?
Get out!
-Brother! What's this?
Just go! Hey, go on!
Deepak, take Yazhini and leave.
-Deepak, come on, let's go!
Hey, just go!
-Come on.
Get out of here!
-Hey, don't touch!
Get out of here!
-Stop grinning like a lunatic!
Get out of here!
Brother, that's a deep cut.
Come on, brother.
Let's go tell Guna about this.
Are they Brother Guna's boys?
Wait, I'll come back
and settle this.
The biggest struggle here is
determining who won and who lost.
My dad neither won nor did he lose.
He simply planted his dream,
and that dream is now my own.
Tell him, you don't
need leave anymore.
No need to take a long leave too.
Tell him you were rejected
from the show.
Why? What happened?
-Excuse me, sir.
Can I come in, sir?
Won't you clean this table?
-I'll do it now, sir.
I told you to water the plant.
What happened?
I'll do it now, sir.
-Tell me, Rajan.
Sir, I don't want a long leave.
I'll join now, sir.
-I've already appointed someone.
Can I dismiss him
all of a sudden?
Sir, I've been rejected
from the competition.
I'll join duty immediately, sir.
-You got rejected? I'm so sorry.
But anyway,
think from my position.
I've already appointed a man.
If I dismiss him now,...
...will it be fair?
-No, sir, I understand.
I asked for the tenth class
weak students' file.
Where is it?
-Ready, sir.
Here, sir.
-Sir!
Let a few days pass, Rajan.
I'll give it some thought.
I'll go on my rounds.
-Okay, sir.
Ravi, can you come?
-Okay, sir.
All right, go now!
Hey, move it!
Hi, sir.
-Tell me, Prabhu.
Have you resigned?
There's a talk in the office.
I saw a new PT master
on the ground.
Did you get the payment?
-I've got it, sir.
How come they cut it as tax
the money I had for a beer, sir?
I owe you a treat, right?
-Sir?
I owe you a treat, right?
Yes, sir.
Shall we go to the liquor shop?
Sir, I didn't bring my bike.
Shall we go on your bike?
Sure.
I haven't boozed in a long while.
Sir, if I get drunk,
please drop me off at my house.
Come, Pandia.
Cheers, Prabha.
-Cheers, sir.
What do you want to become?
-An actor, sir.
Every time I audition,...
...they reject me for overacting.
But I know that one day,
I'll make it to the big screen.
I want to be a singer.
Sir, you're rocking it,
aren't you?
I participated
in the show for Yazhini.
"Sing that song,
this is my favourite song, dad."
"Sing this film's song, dad.
Sing this song."
"Sing my bedtime song."
She kept making me sing.
She kept asking me to sing
different songs.
They kept calling me Mr. Rajan
and put me on a high pedestal.
Yazhini would get excited
and very happy listening to it.
She kept praising me.
Now, I feel everything has been
taken away from me...
...and left on the street.
-Why? What happened?
I got rejected.
-Rejected? What are you saying?
What is this treat for, sir?
Brother!
-Sir!
Careful!
-Careful. Sit down.
The chair is over there.
Sit down.
Can you go home safely, brother?
-Thank you.
You were saying something.
I overheard it.
Sorry, you carry on.
-You sing very well, sir.
Thank you so much, sir.
I sing in running trains
to beg, sir.
Sir, when people hear my song,
they put coins in my bowl.
From the sound of the coins,...
...I realised they were
offering out of sympathy.
Some people get so impressed
they even offer Rs10 notes.
Just the touch of it
brings me so much joy.
Not for the money, sir.
They admire my song
and offer me money.
That gives me energy...
...to get on the train
the next day and sing.
Don't get dejected
for the sound of coins, sir.
Keep marching ahead!
This one is a song for my life...
I will forever be strong...
This is the gang
that delivers the verdict...
And they are just
cheating us...
What kind of world is this...
Only money matters...
Even if you have talent,
failure keeps pushing you back...
Are we fools...
I drank a quarter
and got a kick...
I ended up getting stuck...
Who is the winner,
who is the loser...
The one who claims the first title,
deceived all of us...
Winning alone is always style...
A life that wins
only in isolation is vain...
Spin the world
the way you like it...
Push those who criticise you
to the side...
This one is a song for my life...
I will forever be strong...
This is the gang
that delivers the verdict...
And they are just
cheating us...
Hey, trouble...
Go crush it...
Rock it...
-Who's there?
Let it flow!
Forget the sorrows...
Listen to the melody...
I will never let go...
of my pride...
He's the king of kings...
I won't just stand by and serve...
Live life like a powerful man,
life will be fun...
Look at him saying,
"Let whatever comes, come"...
What more does a good fan need...
Look at him saying,
"Let whatever comes, come"...
Post a tweet on Twitter,
shout it out for the streets...
Winning alone is always style...
A life that wins
only in isolation is vain...
Spin the world
the way you like it...
Push those who
criticise you to the side...
You pushed all the way home, sir.
At least give it to me now.
Sir!
-Hold it.
Come, have dinner and go.
Vidhya! Prabha is here.
Serve him dinner.
-She is angry, sir.
Why are you staring
at him like that?
I asked you to serve
him food, right?
All right, Prabha.
Go home and eat good food.
You escaped!
-Good night, sir.
Hey, what?
Where is Yazhini?
Hey! Why are you behaving
this way?
Am I the one who came home
drunk like a street-dancer?
Hey, how dare you
call me a street-dancer?
Talk respectfully.
Have you seen
street-dancers drinking?
Do street dancers only drink?
From the schoolboy to the old man,
everyone gets drunk.
Government itself is filling
their empty glasses.
And she's complaining.
Go away!
I'm a little depressed.
So I had a few drinks.
Am I drinking every day?
-This is how it starts.
You lost your job too.
And then, you'll start
drinking every day.
Then, you'll just keep
thinking about it.
Hey! I can't live
your imaginations.
I felt like having a drink,
so I had a few.
If I feel like drinking tomorrow,
I will drink again.
She has come to advise me!
Yazhini baby!
Daddy is home.
Come, dear.
Yazhini is sleeping.
What happened to you?
Is this the kind of example you
want to set for Deepak?
Who? Him?
Go up to him and ask if he knows
a person called 'dad'.
Then we can talk
about setting examples.
What's the problem, dad?
-Yazhini baby!
Why are you fighting
when I'm sleeping?
Why don't you fight
tomorrow morning?
Yazhini baby,
my darling, come to me.
Come to me, dear.
-Daddy, go to sleep.
What, dear? You too?
Deepak, come here.
Deepak, go to sleep.
-Tell him to sleep.
He's disturbing me.
I have work tomorrow.
Hey! What's this?
I'm calling you here,
you're going inside to sleep.
Are you the headmistress?
Or the new principal?
Hey!
You'll get it from me soon.
It's coming for you.
You'll get it from me.
Born as a soft melody...
Only to fall as a withered leaf...
This waiting...
It's beautiful, will the admirer
conquer the connoisseur...
Turning into a killing beast...
If one simply waits...
Is it a crown
in the changing direction...
Is it death
by hitting a wall...
Is this waiting
an unending journey...
This waiting...
Even after daybreak,
still longing for dawn...
Is this waiting
for an old path...
...that chases
a brand new journey...
Mom!
Mom, coffee!
Break the dream
and run away...
Open your eyes
and start searching...
Make a crack
become whole again...
Stand amidst
the swaying branch...
And sing a song...
Hey, careful.
Deepak, I'll go meet Brother Guna
and be right back.
Okay, brother.
-They might go there...
...and say something foolish.
This could end badly.
I'll just go
and meet him in person.
Okay, I'll be back.
-Okay, brother.
I drew this. Do you know that?
-Yeah, I know.
Dad, why did you behave
so badly that day?
I'm angry with you.
-Yazhini!
I've been calling you
for so long.
What are you doing there?
-Nothing.
Get down.
Okay, from now on,
be a good daddy, okay? Bye!
Trichy
Okay, I'll take leave.
-Okay.
Okay, bye.
-Hey, I'm talking to you.
Gnanam, get me a cup of coffee.
Did you hear me?
Get me a cup of coffee.
Can you hear me or not?
-I heard it!
In fact, very well!
I heard you ask for coffee and...
...also overheard you complaining
about Rajan to your friend.
What did I say wrong about him?
If he had written...
...the government exams
as I told him to, he would be...
...a government officer now.
-How?
Like the man who left just now,
your friend, the retired Tahsildar?
He took bribes from everyone and
earned himself a bad reputation.
Go and ask Iron Man Ganesan,
vegetable seller Ponnamma,...
...and our milkman Pazhani.
Do you know what they are asking?
They are asking when Rajan
will come and when he'll sing.
Everyone in town
is talking about him.
In a good way.
You're talking as if you gave
him that bribe yourself.
Go, get me that coffee!
Look who is advising.
You're always asking
for coffee.
Mr. Rajan!
Hey, Charles!
-What are you doing, sir?
Raising food!
Sir, how is there so much
water in the well?
We have a water
shortage in my area.
Don't cast an evil eye, boy.
We're making every effort
we can to conserve water.
We didn't cement the floor.
Water will only be absorbed
if there's soil.
You're right, sir.
-What's up?
What's with the surprise visit?
-Nothing, sir.
We're running an orchestra.
-Yes.
Our lead singer didn't show up.
Now, at the last minute,
he's not even picking up my call.
So, sir...
-Okay, so what?
It would be good if you could
come and sing for us.
Oh, come on.
I'm busy trying to figure out
which school to join right now.
I'm sending applications
to every school, even at this age.
What happened, sir?
The new principal
and I are at loggerheads.
Sorry, sir. I....
Sir, I will pay you
for the program.
It was last-minute.
-No, it isn't about money.
You misunderstood.
Sir, you love to sing.
The wild card entry is coming up.
It's better to stay
in touch right now.
Please think about it, sir.
Okay, send me the address.
I'll come.
-Okay, sir.
Happy now?
-Super, sir! Thank you, sir!
I'll send the address.
We'll rock this evening.
How come you're here?
I came with Miss Rani.
Why are you singing here?
Charles called.
His lead singer didn't turn up.
So, he called me.
Anyway, I'm just sitting
at home doing nothing, right?
So, I thought I'd come
and sing for him.
Just sing?
Do as you wish!
Sir, Charles gave you this,
the payment for singing.
Mr. Rajan!
Did you get the payment?
I've given him, let's go.
-Hey, wait.
Did you have some biryani, madam?
The pieces were excellent, right?
Sir, did you eat?
-He and his sense of timing!
There was nothing there,
only rice.
I got a few pieces.
-Sir, how about you?
Hey, get going!
-Let's go.
Okay, bye, sir.
You're not at all worried about
losing your job, are you?
You're goofing around
with kids.
Do as you wish.
Mr. Rajan,
you sang wonderfully.
Amazing! Very happy.
-Keep quiet, ma'am.
Come, let's go!
Wait for some time, sir.
-Sir, this is my job.
How can you give it
to someone else?
This is my office. Stop raising
your voice in here. Understand?
I prioritise the welfare
of our students above all else.
You just leave whenever you want
to go do some reality show...
...and take frequent days off.
Do you expect me to keep quiet?
A student got hurt
in your absence.
His parents
came here to question me.
They are asking why we charge
so much when we don't even have...
...a PE teacher.
-You were here, right?
Yes, sir.
-Tell him!
Yes, they asked, sir.
-Sir, it's not possible this week.
Students have exams.
Come next week, please.
Madhesh, salted biscuit?
-Yes, sir.
Get me some Marie biscuits.
-Okay, sir.
My BP is so high.
Why are you sitting here?
Go do your work.
Rajan, let's go.
Where's Deepak, Purushoth?
The chairman wants to meet him.
The chairman wants to meet him?
-Really?
Once, the chairman called me.
-Don't be afraid, come.
He was a big inspiration for us.
-Yes, time is very limited.
Hi, sir!
-Yeah, we'll get the project done.
Please.
-It won't be a problem.
Maybe in a week. Bye!
Hi, Deepak! How are you doing?
-Fine, sir.
Make a call to your dad.
-To my dad?
Sir, shall I call my mom?
-Call your dad.
If someone talks to me,
I'll take her to the beach.
Hey! What are you drawing?
One minute. Call for you.
Who is it?
-Deepak.
He's calling from his office.
Hello!
Dad, my chairman wants
to talk to you.
Pass the phone to him.
-Sir, good evening.
Sir, vanakkam.
What is he saying?
-Thank you, sir.
What did he say?
The day our own chairman
personally called my father...
...and invited him as the chief
guest for our office function,...
...I gained a whole new
level of respect for my dad.
Good morning, ma'am.
-Good morning.
One minute.
I'm being posted to Shimla.
To an international school.
Please inform Mr. Rajan.
He's very famous
among the students.
The guilt has been weighing
on me for quite a while...
...for taking away his job.
Mr. Kannan told me to refer
someone else for my post.
Please ask Mr. Rajan to meet him.
He may appoint someone else.
Don't let Mr. Kannan know
I told you this.
Sir, about our monthly magazine....
Sir, I need to talk to you.
-Go ahead.
If the PE teacher post
is vacant,...
...you know that the most
deserving is Mr. Rajan.
You're keeping him aside
for your personal vengeance.
Why are you taking
the wrong decision, sir?
Don't tell me
who is a deserving candidate.
Got it?
-This is how I'll talk.
If you don't reinstate Mr. Rajan,
I will quit!
This is my decision.
Thank you, Mr. Kannan.
Sir, I think whatever
she said is absolutely right.
Mr. Rajan is a deserving
candidate for the post.
What have you done, Prabha?
-It was not our fault, brother.
It was the boys
who caused the problem.
Why didn't Deepak come?
-He's at home.
Go get him.
It's Brother Prabha. Brother!
-Hey, sit down.
I met Brother Guna.
He wants you
to meet him in person.
That lunatic has a deep cut.
-Am I in trouble, brother?
No. What's wrong with you?
I'm here with you.
Don't be afraid.
Sometimes, it feels like
we're losing control of everything.
During those times, only a few
people will actually stand by us.
Brother Prabha
was one such person.
He stood by our father,
and now he is standing by us.
Sir, why don't we record
all the songs you've sung...
...on stage so far
and start an Instagram profile?
It'll go viral, sir.
-What's the use?
I'm there for you, sir.
Just sing the songs
and give them to me,...
...that's all I need.
-No.
Every time I sing,
it lands me in trouble.
This time,
we're not missing out.
We're going to make it epic.
-Hey, move.
Sir, please dedicate
your favourite song to us.
Share that video
with all the groups immediately.
Yes, share and tag it.
Make it go viral.
Tag it as,
"We miss you, Mr. Rajan."
Boy, don't shake your head.
-Don't shake your head!
Stay like that,
don't shake your head.
An entire school
listens to me, but not him.
Stop shaking, boy.
Sir, leave him. I'll do it.
-Can you handle him?
He keeps shaking his head.
-What do you watch on TV?
Cartoons.
-Do you watch Cartoon Network?
Yes, I do.
Now, we're standing in front
of Mr. Rajan's school.
Isn't this our school, sir?
He's an excellent singer.
Mr. Rajan!
Sir, I want to vote for him.
Is it going to be Mr. Rajan,
Aruna or Charles.
So, we've brought back our best
singers for the wild card round.
There are four wild card entries.
Tell me who the best is.
We have Mr. Rajan, Aruna,...
...Yogalakshmi and Charles.
-Mr. Rajan!
I like Yogalakshmi.
-I like Mr. Rajan.
She sings well. She's pretty too.
What more do you need?
What are your expectations
for Mr. Rajan?
Do you think
he'll win the finale?
I'm sure he will.
Yazhini, what are you doing
with that whistle?
I picked it up from the floor.
Dad, your phone is ringing.
-Who is it?
New P Kannan.
-Give it to me.
Hello, yes, sir?
Yazhini!
-Mr. Rajan, it's me, Kannan.
Sorry, sir.
-Come to the office tomorrow.
Come and join immediately. Okay?
-I'll be there, sir.
Thank you.
-Thank you, sir.
I'll hang up, sir.
-What did he say?
I've been asked
to rejoin the school.
My two children are celebrating
our 25th wedding anniversary...
...at a resort.
All of you are like my family.
Nothing happens
in my family without you.
Why are you so silent?
Mr. Rajan, you must come
with your family.
Welcome to our parents'
25th wedding anniversary.
Our parents have been very
supportive of all our decisions.
And especially, the decision
my sister took.
It is one of our life
changing moments.
It'll be better if Madhu
tells you about it.
My greetings to you all for coming
to this marriage anniversary.
The level of equality
and balance they maintain...
...within our home is incredible.
In their family, whether a child
is born a boy, a girl...
...or a transgender,
they treat everyone equally.
Today, the reason for the life
and success of this achiever,...
...a transgender woman
with 16 degrees is my family.
I wish to hold
my mother's hand.
Thanks, Vidhya, for speaking
to the new principal on my behalf.
Please stop overreacting.
Sorry, boy.
I spilt water on it.
No problem, grandpa.
-May I clean it?
May I clean it?
-No problem, grandpa.
I'll clean it, boy.
-No problem, grandpa.
Nothing happened, right?
How much does it cost?
It'll cost
around Rs50,000, grandpa.
Vidhya!
-Yes?
Don't you like me singing?
The entire city loves
your singing.
Of course, I love it too,
Mr. Rajan!
Then, why?
Are you asking
why I'm not encouraging you?
That's my insecurity.
It's a long flashback.
I've got plenty of time.
Tell me, I'm listening.
My grandson also wants
to study computer.
I have a coconut farm
in the village.
I'm planning to sell it to cover
his education expenses.
I was in
the third standard then.
My father
was a government employee.
Everything was fine.
Suddenly, my father quit.
My father and mother
started fighting frequently.
Then, he said he was opening
a restaurant with four friends.
But that restaurant
was located inside a complex.
Due to debts,
the owner of the complex...
...committed suicide
along with his family.
My father's investment
got stuck there.
He fell into depression
and stayed home for some time.
He started drinking.
His constant drinking...
...led to liver failure.
He died of cirrhosis...
...within a short time.
We have no idea what it is.
We don't know
if it's good or bad either.
Yet, everyone seems
to be running after this.
Don't worry.
Mr. Rajan is not like that.
I know about you, Mr. Rajan.
But what about
your drinking habit?
Hey, I only drank
that one time.
A mistake is a mistake.
Okay, headmistress!
Okay, let's go.
There were so many
balloons there.
The chilly chicken
was incredibly tasty.
Actually, the eggs were good too.
Well, aside from that,
everything else was okay.
That's what you're saying,
but you ate well.
Wait! Stop!
-What happened?
My bag!
-What happened?
Wait, I'll get it.
This guy!
Deepak!
-Why? What happened?
Deepak!
-Deepak!
Deepak!
-What happened?
Deepak, get up!
What happened?
-What happened, Deepak?
Deepak! What happened?
-Deepak!
He had a panic attack.
But nothing to worry about.
This usually happens when people
are working in very stressful jobs.
It can also affect people
with a sedentary lifestyle.
But I just don't understand how
a schoolboy could get this problem.
Actually, he's working
in an IT company.
What?
Being a brilliant student,
he secured an opportunity.
We allowed him to work.
-Whatever, sir.
This generation wants
to achieve everything quickly.
Even diseases strike faster.
Okay, now,...
...I've given him some iron
and vitamin supplements.
He needs hydration
and complete rest.
If possible, ask him
to take two weeks of leave.
Take good care of him, sir.
Hey! Why are you sleeping
in your uniform?
I'm already worked up.
Get up now!
Why? What happened?
I asked for leave
because Deepak is unwell.
They refused, saying
the exams are around the corner.
Did they ask you
to come back to work?
I don't know what to do.
I have to take care of him,
but I also need to go to school.
The PE teacher has no work
until the exams are over.
I'll take leave and
look after him, you go to school.
What if he asks
for tea or coffee?
Madam, were you cooking for me
before our marriage?
I was cooking, right?
I'll take care of it, you go on.
Then why don't you ever come
by the kitchen these days?
I'm doing it now.
Now go!
Hey, come.
Come on!
-Look at mom, dad.
I'm so sleepy.
I'm leaving! Take care of him.
-Bye, dad!
Deepak!
What are you doing?
-I'm hungry, dad.
Mom only made
snake gourd stir-fry.
What do you want now?
Something spicy.
Biryani with potato fry?
Have you brushed your teeth?
-Not yet, dad.
Go brush your teeth.
Shall we play?
-Okay.
Come on.
Let's play offside.
I'll tell him to bring.
-Thank you, madam.
What is it, Vidhya?
-Where is the principal?
Why? What happened, madam?
-Well, my son is sick.
I came to ask for permission.....
-Madhesh!
Will he be late?
-He'll be late. He has gone out.
Go on, we'll inform him.
No, he might say something.
No problem, you go on,
I'll inform him.
Okay, I'll go then.
-Okay, bye.
Need a hand, dad?
No, I'll take care of it,
you carry on.
Dad, I told you
I've an idea, right?
Yes. Okay, what is it?
Yesterday, I met an elderly man
in the resort, dad.
He couldn't continue
farming in his village,...
...so he's working
as a gardener here now.
His wish is to somehow guide
his grandson toward a career in IT.
I want to help him, dad.
What do you think about that?
That's a wonderful idea.
What do you plan to do?
Dad, we're using IT for
completely unnecessary things.
To book movie tickets,
to order food.
Dad, we're planning to get
food from the restaurant.
But we completely forgot
how to bring it home from the farm.
I want to design an app
to help them, dad.
Very good.
-But it's going to cost us a bit.
How much will it cost?
-I've framed the design.
I can tell
only after finalising it, dad.
Why don't you talk to your CEO?
He's my fan anyway.
Do you think
he'll invest in my project, dad?
He will invest.
We can talk to him.
If he joins us, I can get
this done easily, dad.
Then, let's go and meet him.
Dad, it might burst!
Come out!
Dad, come on, it might burst!
-Shut up! Don't scare me!
I've entered
the kitchen after so many years.
Listen to me, dad.
It happened to my friend's mom.
Her hands got burned. Come on.
-Hey!
What's going on here?
The kitchen is so dirty.
What are you guys doing?
-It wasn't me, dad did it.
Get out of the kitchen now!
Okay.
-Sign it.
Hey, no way.
Sign it!
-Get lost!
No, get lost!
-Do as I say!
Get up.
-Oh, no!
What is that?
Her father is running
in the elections, Miss.
She wants me to vote for him.
Yazhini!
What's this?
Miss, my dad is participating
in a reality show.
I told him to vote for him.
-I'll vote for your dad too.
Don't break the branch.
Tie it a bit higher.
Tie it higher, boys.
What's that?
It's Rajan, not Raja.
What have you boys done?
Madam, you tell us, who do you
think will be the winner?
What's this, madam?
I think you're putting me in a fix.
All of you sing,
I'll tell you who is the best.
Madam, super plan.
-What super plan?
We can't sing just like that.
Tell her to come over
and watch for herself.
You're doing too much.
-Sir, for madam's sake.
Okay.
-Poor thing.
One of you, please sing.
-How is that? We should sing.
After hearing our songs,
you're planning...
...to give him time to plan
a better one.
Madam, a competition
is a competition.
You should come there
and watch us sing.
Did you pray for dad to win
the wild card round?
Why should I pray?
Dad is going to win.
Your father
wants to talk to you.
Yes, dad.
Your mother wants to attend
the wild card round.
We'll surely come
to your finals, son.
Okay, dad.
-I'll put the phone down now.
What?
Dad and mom are coming
for the finals.
So much confidence?
-Yes.
Thank you.
Ganesa, come on,
the program is about to start.
Coming, sir.
-Sir, rock it.
Go get the win.
What are you doing?
I'm loving him. Get lost.
-Super!
When the first bud awakens...
The eyes should not
see the thorns...
When hands reach out
and pluck the flower...
The heart of the one who sowed
the seed cannot bear it...
If it blooms even once...
Nature will not stand defeated...
Even if you fall many times...
The next day, your fragrance will
blend and play in the wind...
Hey, are you guys coming?
Do not close your eyes
because of the thorns...
For the blind,
the day will never truly break...
Search for yourself
within you...
The Earth
is your sanctuary...
Do not close your eyes
because of the thorns...
For the blind,
the day will never truly break...
Search for yourself
within you...
The Earth
is your sanctuary...
Do your best.
-She's Vaishnavi.
Hi.
-Hi. He's my dear brother.
Hello, sir.
-Hello, sir.
Do not stop
even for a minute...
If you stop,
don't fall prey to fear...
Never go seeking
company in loneliness...
Why, dad?
I can't bear this debt
burden anymore.
Don't cry, dad.
I'm here for you.
What has passed until now
is yesterday's story...
A tiny seed
will tell us tales of it...
If you live savouring it,
it is a great intoxication...
Now, a path will be born
just for you...
If the path ends,
look for a new path...
If the journey ends,
sleep with a smile...
It's okay, son.
Do not close your eyes
because of the thorns...
For the blind,
the day will never truly break...
Search for yourself
within you...
The Earth
is your sanctuary...
How do we vote for this?
Just send a message to this number.
-I'll do it for you.
Search for yourself
within you...
The Earth
is your sanctuary...
Okay?
-Super.
Sir, your performance today
was just phenomenal.
What an incredible performance.
I truly feel that you are the
number one performer in this show.
Who cares what you feel?
Tell us, sir.
Who from your family is here
to show their support?
My wife is here.
-Hi, ma'am.
My kids are here too.
I'm sure you're going
to win 'The Voice' title.
Sure.
-If you reach number one,...
...how would you feel then?
Everyone has been asking me
this question since I arrived.
I'm telling you again,...
...I participated in this
for my daughter.
And I'll always sing for her.
-Wow! Super, sir.
But you can't cheat our audience.
-Correct.
Because they have
voted honestly, sir.
So, before we know
their result,...
...let's invite the other
contestants and watch what unfolds.
Welcome on stage, everyone.
Congratulations. Welcome back.
All of you, please clap.
Did you
leave your hands at home?
Even though your performances
were outstanding,...
...I can see that all of you
look tense up there.
I feel like they are all going
to burst from all this tension.
Before they get blown up,
how about we burst a cracker,...
...start the countdown and
make this place super exciting?
Are you ready?
-Ready.
And you? Shall we count down?
-They are also ready.
Let the countdown begin.
10, 9, 8, 7,...
...6, 5, 4, 3, 2,...
...one!
I'm so happy.
Hey, come this side.
What's this?
Don't you maintain your auto?
The rod is protruding.
It looks like that thing
is about to stab my head.
Wait, sir. Move aside a little.
-Dad!
You promised
to take us to the waterfalls...
...if you won
the wild card round?
I'll take you.
-Thanks, dad.
It could be your sister,
father, mother, brother...
...or our daughter.
Hello, there has been
an accident near Thirunilmazhai.
Come fast.
-It's the family from the show.
Who?
-There are kids in there.
Mr. Rajan!
Show me your hand.
-What happened to my daddy?
Your dad is doing fine,
the doctor is examining him.
Daddy is in there. I must go,
take me to him.
I want to see my dad.
Where is my mom?
Please take me to them.
Please take me to my dad.
Please take me to them.
Dad!
Dad, I want to see you.
It is only when the people close
to our heart are not with us,...
...we truly understand the pain
and appreciate their worth.
That day, in the wild card round,
our father won.
As we were all returning
home happily,...
...we were involved
in an accident.
We ended up losing both
our mom and dad.
We had to move into our
grandparents' house in Trichy.
They also passed away
due to Covid.
Our lives changed completely.
For both Yazhini and me,...
...loneliness was
the only companion.
Yazhini was devastated, she took
the loss harder than I did.
Every single word
has its own meaning...
To overcome
the sufferings in life...
If blood stands
together united...
You will conquer
the whole world through love...
This universe yearns for love,
it will search and seek...
The universe will
forever seek only love...
The dampness
of the dewdrops will dry up...
The grassy fields
will also lean and fall...
The moment the moon breaks
and stands still...
Small mountains
will reappear...
Like flowing water...
Lives emerge daily...
In the mother's lap...
Every day...
At one point, I even thought of
registering this house...
...in Guna's name and escaping
from the problems we were facing.
But the house is where I lived
with my mom and dad,...
...so many memories.
I didn't know
if I could just give it all up.
So, I decided to fight
as hard as I possibly can.
That's when Yazhini came and stood
right in the middle of all of us.
Don't say that!
Hey!
For now, let our house
stay with you.
The money we owe you,
plus interest,...
...we promise to pay the rest
no matter how much it is.
Just give us two years.
If only our dad
were still with us, we.....
Please give us two years.
No matter what happens,
we will pay your money back.
Until then, please take
good care of our house.
When I had lost all hope
and was left with nothing,...
...the way Yazhini spoke,...
...the confidence in her eyes,...
...it felt like fire.
Guna stood silently,
completely speechless.
Deepak, go with her.
-We got two years.
During those two years,
I worked hard and earned a lot.
I began reviving
my ruined business.
I also started seeing
good yields...
...in the natural farming
method that I love.
Above everything else,
we managed to reclaim our house.
It all worked out fine.
I tied the knot too.
We owe the recovery of our home
entirely to Yazhini.
Today is our grand finale.
We must be celebrating.
We must be happy.
I understand this is
a very nervous day for all of you.
But this set
is missing something.
It's our Mr. Rajan.
His performance was outstanding
in the wild card round.
He won everyone's heart.
He must have been here.
But unfortunately, he's not here.
So we are....
-We're now going to play...
...one of Mr. Rajan's
best performance videos.
A dedication to Mr. Rajan.
Yazhini did something
none of us expected.
The very same stage where
my dad could not participate...
...and ultimately
could not win the finals,...
...my sister, Yazhini,
stood on the very same stage.
When the first
bud awakens...
The eyes should not
see the thorns...
When hands reach out
and pluck the flower...
The heart of the one who
sowed the seed cannot bear it...
If it blooms even once...
Nature will not stand defeated...
Even if you fall
many times...
The next day, your fragrance will
blend and play in the wind...
My father often said that he was
participating for his daughter.
And that he would
always sing for her.
Dad, this is for you.
I love you.
I love you so much.
I miss you a lot, dad.
Do not close your eyes

Do not hesitate
to reach out for strength...
