Premante (2025) Movie Script

Dinner is being served. Come on, come on.
Is there a biryani counter, Raja, Raja?
There's a huge queue. Let's go.
Shall we get to what we came here for?
- With family or without family?
- Let me ask.
- Come on, fast.
- Mummy?
Why are you crying?
- Is his dance that great?
- Ugh!
That's the girl you
were supposed to marry.
The knot that you were supposed to tie.
The dance that you were supposed to do.
That dance?
You want to shamelessly have biryani.
If I'm late, there won't
be any pieces left.
If you put 10% of the worry
you have about pieces
on the fact that you're not
finding a bride, I'll be grateful.
What do I do if they
keep rejecting me, Mom?
Hey, chill, Ms. Sujatha.
Don't worry.
In 2 years, they'll all get divorced and
- be back on the market.
- Shut it.
What a filthy mouth.
Just because your wife ran away,
will everyone do the same?
Auntie, stop saying "ran away".
She just left me.
Sujatha,
you need to be positive in life.
I might die in two years.
I will see your wedding
and pass peacefully.
Huh? Huh?
I'm paying the EMI for
the crores worth of loans
I took to pay your medical bills.
That stress is making me bald.
And you keep saying, "I'll die soon"
as if it's a hobby.
It's pissing me off, Dad.
And he's preaching positivity
- like a motivational speaker.
- Yeah, exactly.
- It's not like that, dear.
- It's not like what, Mummy?
See, I'm meeting these girls for you.
But to be honest,
until I clear those loans,
I'm not even thinking about marriage.
If you keep waiting this way,
you'll miss out on the girl you like.
Think about it.
I'll surely think about it.
- I'll think about it while munching.
- Come on!
Let's munch on the meat!
This girl's from Mumbai.
This one, Delhi.
This, England.
She's nice, right?
Here, take this card.
Come meet me tomorrow.
- Thank you. Come.
- Hey, Broker!
- Broker!
- What broker?
Yeah, Sundaram broker.
Waste broker.
Give us back our money.
Take it from your son.
- This match also came to your son, right?
- Yeah.
They're girls.
Not some tomatoes or potatoes,
to be available in the markets.
You've been through
all the matches on this list.
Then why did you call us here?
Don't make a fuss.
It'll affect my market. Come here.
There.
That man in a blue shirt with glasses?
- He's also like you.
- Huh?
He's the father of the girl who
rejected the boy
who's marrying the girl
who rejected your son.
It's too confusing.
He's the girl's dad, right?
I thought of trying to set these two up.
So, I asked you and them to come here.
Go, sit and talk. It'll work out.
Go. Don't ruin it.
- This is Sujatha.
- If not this, you're done for.
What a pain!
Dude, I'll be honest today,
Priya only left me once.
Every time I meet your mom,
she leaves me 10 times a day.
Badly stomach burning, man.
- It's okay.
- Ask her to act a bit ethically.
- I'll talk to her.
- I doubt it.
- Come, come. Hey, move.
- Who are these colony aunties?
Hey, auntie.
Don't you have any ethics?
Huh? I don't.
There are onions and carrots over there.
Go, take it.
This Jasmine auntie
thinks ethics is a salad.
What happened?
- Are you the manager?
- Yes.
Forget salad.
There's a fight going on.
What if the lamb is over?
Let's go.
Come, come.
- Is this how you make biryani?
- She's thrashing him.
First, come out.
Brother, come here.
Ma'am, please.
It'll cost me the job.
You, green shirt.
- Me?
- You, green shirt, come.
- Ma'am, one minute. Please--
- You wait.
Are you on the bride's side or groom's?
- He's the guy the bride pushed aside.
- Wait.
I'm the bride's well-wisher.
Tell me why one comes to a reception.
To a reception?
We come to have a nice biryani.
Everybody who came here expecting
a banger biryani, raise your hand.
Raise it.
You see?
Biryani is the reason we come
to a wedding. How can we adjust?
- Please, ma'am...
- We won't.
What kind of a person are you?
Is this even a biryani?
Totally uncooked.
No meat. It's cold too.
You have another pot and yet--
Hey, bring a new pot.
Ramya? Why are you making a scene?
- Wait, Mom. This is for you.
- Come.
- Finally!
- Kid, move, move.
Jasmine auntie? You're back?
You always need to be extra, right?
Stop that first.
How could you?
How can you give it away, Mom?
It's just a gift. Where did we
get the time to buy a gift?
It's just a saree, right?
Did you ask me?
Did you take my permission?
I want my saree back.
All this is because of you.
If you had not rejected him,
he wouldn't be getting married.
And we wouldn't have to give a gift.
If you want a saree, get married.
Your logic is terrible, Mom.
Right from childhood,
from applying nail polish to
going on a trip with friends,
you link it with marriage.
- Can I only live a life after marriage?
- Yes.
- Will I get freedom only after marriage?
- Yes.
Shut up and get married.
You're worse than
North Korea's dictator.
I want my saree. Go and get it.
We already gave the gift.
- It won't be nice.
- Padma!
Yeah! Dad is calling. Let's go.
Come.
Don't feel sad.
Have the biryani.
- Go, put them in the room.
- Okay.
Am I here to eat the biryani rice
and no meat?
- Come, sit.
- Namaste.
- Namaste.
- Please sit.
- Where's Ramya?
- She was right behind me.
Oh?
That won't work.
- Should I help?
- No, it's nothing.
The door got locked.
My relative has the key.
I'll get it. You carry on.
But, your saree?
The groom has more jewelry
on him than the bride.
- Must be 2 tolas at least, no?
- No, must be 6 or 7 tolas.
Your saree is inside, right?
I thought you wanted to
secretly get it back. I came to help.
How do you know?
I have sharp ears.
I hear everything.
So... the lock?
- We'll unlock it.
- Huh, how?
This will do.
That easy? How?
How?
Like this.
This is my job.
Your job? Meaning?
Meaning, he sells locks,
CCTVs, safes, etc.
Sujatha Security Services.
He named it after me.
He runs his business in Hyderabad.
Ms. Sujatha, did you eat?
- Is this the boy?
- Ew, no.
This is Ravi.
He works under Madhi.
I don't work under or over Madhi.
I work with Madhi, aunty. Partners.
SSS -Sujatha Security Services.
- Your safety is our priority.
- Poor guy.
He's depressed that his wife ran away.
So, he roams around us.
How is that related to this?
Actually, auntie is weak in Telugu.
She failed in 10th grade too.
Small grammatical mistake.
My wife didn't run away.
She just left me.
I'm trying to fix a match. Shut up.
- What does your girl do?
- She does whatever she wants.
No, no, nothing like that.
She can't stays idle.
She keeps doing some or the other course
like home decor or cooking.
That's fine. Now,
hobbies are turning into careers.
Would be fine if they were hobbies.
But our Ramya goes to the extreme--
No, he means, whatever she does,
she does deeply with perfection.
If she makes biryani,
our whole colony reaches our house.
Hey. Okay.
We're okay with this marriage. Fix.
What say, Ms. Sujatha?
Shut it, you glutton.
She keeps the house clean and pretty.
She's crazy about cleaning and organizing.
Ugh, so messy.
- Why can't they keep it clean--
- Are you cleaning?
Blue color, shining cover.
It says, "Errapalli and family".
Look for it.
Blue color, shining cover.
"Errapalli and family."
Errapalli and family...
Yes, Mom.
Why?
I won't come. Stop it.
Cut the call. I'm not coming. Bye.
If you're busy, please go.
I'll handle it.
No, no, nothing like that.
You know how it is.
Moms have only one job at such events.
Like people who sell black tickets,
"My son for 50."
"My son for 100." They try and sell.
You're lucky your mom at least asks you.
My mom mass forwards my photo
and bio data to everybody here.
Sets up a meeting. Then she informs me.
I can understand.
This marriage--
Tactics!
They're all tactics, to be honest.
Actually,
I heard this wedding is
happening thanks to you.
I heard out there.
I'm very curious to know
why you rejected this guy.
That guy?
I can't with such boring people.
Boys should be thrilling,
like an adventure.
Anyway, I'm only half the
reason for this wedding.
I heard the other half
is also at this wedding.
The guy who got rejected by the bride.
Hi, I'm Madhi.
Madhusudhan Rao.
I'm your other half.
- Nice to meet you.
- Oh! It's you!
Hi, I'm Ramya.
- Nice to meet you too.
- Thank you.
You seem nice.
Why did she reject you?
Thanks again.
Fine, I'll tell you a situation.
Suppose, when you meet a potential groom,
if he says...
Since we need to talk
openly in such times,
I'll talk candidly.
A while ago, my friends and I
started a security services company.
But my office timings are mostly nights.
When you're asleep, I'm at work.
When I'm asleep, you'll be at work.
So, our life will always be out of sync.
Moreover, since my dad got sick,
I took a huge loan.
My salary is barely enough to pay for it.
Don't think too much about
how to reject me.
If you silently get up and leave,
it's understandable.
If he says so,
even you'll reject him, right?
Generally speaking, you're right.
But, personally speaking,
these loans and financial matters
- aren't an issue for me.
- They're not?
Yeah. All of us middle class folks
have the same issues, right?
We'll have some loan.
We have to keep paying back.
How is that related to marriage?
It's not?
If you keep all that in mind,
how will we find the right one?
I found it.
"Errapalli and family?"
Hey! Thanks!
Actually, my mom--
I asked you to put the boxes inside.
You sorted them well.
Fine, let's go eat.
I think they left.
Don't you have any expectations?
Married life expectations?
I mean, for example,
I hope, I don't cause any problems
to the girl I'm going to marry.
Do you have anything like that?
Oh, this is the first time
someone's asking me this.
Really?
Until now, due to
unnecessary restrictions,
life was all boring.
After marriage,
life has to be thrilling.
Problems will definitely come up.
But no matter how big the problem is,
even if we fight all day,
no matter how angry we get,
we sit, drink chai,
we talk it out,
solve it and go to bed with love.
That's the kind of marriage I want.
I...
...make killer tea.
Oh?
- Put me down. Put me down!
- Tie it first.
Hi.
- Hi, I'm Parvathy. I live in G1.
- Hi. I'm Ramya.
This is my husband, Madhi.
Actually, I'm an agent in a travel agency.
Let me know if you want
a discounted honeymoon package.
For now, honeymoon is in G2.
Open up.
Hey!
Uh, hi man, hi.
It's been a month. Won't you come back?
Many works are pending.
Everything's pending here too.
You kept tormenting us about the loan.
Now, you're playing around?
- Fine, I'll come.
- Yeah, fine, fine. Bye, bye.
What in hell--
Is it over?
- What?
- Our honeymoon time?
Wouldn't it be great
if it stayed like this?
Like what?
Like this one month.
Where every day feels like our honeymoon.
Doing what we love.
Tiny pleasures.
Fights.
Cheap thrills.
I want them everyday.
And who will repay the loan?
- Isn't this it?
- What?
Most people get caught by the police.
But now, police got caught by us.
In a sensational sting
operation by Plus TV,
a head constable got caught.
Our problem solver police got caught.
Separating lovely couples.
Here's Asha Mary's mess up, let's watch.
Get divorced.
Marriage is supposed to be a feast.
What's a marriage if the food itself rots?
So, get divorced.
Get divorced.
Life with wife is a strife man!
Will you keep saving money
in a bank and fall dry?
Or, will you go and enjoy in Bangkok?
Let go of essence-less marriage.
Divorce is the right passage.
- Asha ma'am, sir is asking for you.
- Yeah, fine.
Seems like you're watching it
on repeat. Enough.
Madam.
- You're in big trouble now.
- Hey, Ramesh, get in.
Why do you care?
Go inside.
- I'll snitch to your wife, idiot.
- No, ma'am.
If she's like this,
wonder how her station head is.
She said it herself.
Hush, come here.
Our station head, Sampath.
Government job. He'll get a good dowry.
I warned him.
Yet he greedily got married.
Now, when his wife calls,
he sweet-talks her.
"Darling", "My love".
When he puts the phone down,
"Witch", "Devil".
Terrible language.
Who is he acting for?
Sampath should be ashamed.
Sampath should be ashamed.
Be ashamed, Sampath!
- Is this much shyness enough?
- Until he's ashamed...
- Should I amp it up?
- Tag him, #BeAshamedSampath.
Stop ruining my name.
Keep it down.
- Sorry Sampath--
- Later.
I didn't start yet.
He and his wife came for counseling.
Why did you drag me and my wife into this?
It just came out in a flow.
In the same flow, you publicly
announced that I took a dowry.
And made me a villain.
- But you did take it.
- Shut it.
You're experienced.
You look like an elder.
You seem respectable.
So, I asked you to do counseling.
"Get a divorce."
You gave away solid
content to the sting operation.
I didn't know there was a camera, Sampath.
Yeah, they'll tell you.
You won't be informed before
they make a fool out of you.
- He's right.
- Wow.
What a rhyming!
What a timing!
"Bank", "Aaku", "Bangkok".
Sense--
- "Essence-less marriage."
- Yeah.
"Life with wife is a strife."
Wow. Daughter of knowledge.
Writing poetry in police uniform.
What's your senseless obsession
with separating couples?
They don't want to be together, Sampath.
Why else would they come
to the police station?
It's a waste of time.
As if you're "Karthavyam's" Vijayashanthi.
You're solving all the cases
in both the states.
Did you give me at least one
criminal case?
I will. I'll send all the
ASIs to counseling
and I'll give all the cases to you.
Brother. Try and understand me.
For how long should I
remain a head constable?
Try and remember.
When you were a constable under me,
why did you study hard
and become an SI?
- I was afraid I'd become you if I didn't.
- So?
So, it's because of me, right?
Are you even a little grateful, Sampath?
Forget becoming an inspector.
Do you know what the DSP texted me?
"If you don't know how to run the station,
put up a shop and sell cigarettes."
He's not wrong.
Of course you said it.
Why won't you?
Lenience.
No more lenience.
"Hey, Sampath!" "Sampu."
"Brother."
"I'll tie you a band.
You'll give me a helping hand."
No more.
From now, you'll call me only 'Sir'.
- You've changed so much, Sampath.
- Yes, I have.
When you were new here,
how different were you?
Stop digging up the past.
Start practicing how to call me 'Sir'.
Alright, sir.
Should I get you a tea, sir?
Should I put a biscuit in it, sir?
- You...
- Asha Mary!
I'll see how you keep a case away from me.
Hello!
You don't get to catwalk out of here.
Learn how to leave
in front of your senior.
I'll get you the best gift soon enough.
Here, take this sample.
Hey, Asha Mary!
Hey!
- Did you call me, sir?
- How did you get out?
- The AC isn't working, sir.
- AC not working? Get out.
Is this a police station or hill station?
Everybody goes around as they wish.
Lock the cell, man!
Good morning, Asha Mary.
- Did you sign?
- No.
- Did you bring them empty again?
- Yes.
How many times will you return them?
As many times as you send them.
I'm not a good wife.
I can't give you much time.
I yell at you for nothing.
I'm not a good match for you.
Were you ever happy with me?
The day you understand our problem,
ask me then. I will sign them.
Anyway, you want divorce.
Yet you have our photo right beside you.
Asha Mary? Love you too.
Get lost.
Send the papers again. I'll be back.
Love, huh?
Are we in "Little Hearts" movie?
Do you know how great
the first month of our marriage was?
I never had so much excitement in my life.
So much happiness. So much love.
I had butterflies in my stomach
whenever Madhi looked at me.
He used to sing for me.
When Madhi looked deep into my eyes,
said "I love you" and kissed me,
I used to go crazy.
But ever since our jobs began,
we barely spend time together.
I have day shifts.
He has night shifts.
When I'm home, he's not.
When he's home, I'm not.
It feels so lonely, you know?
You both must be stressed.
Go on a trip.
I'll get you a discounted foreign trip
from my agency.
That's not the problem.
I feel strange at home.
It's been 3 months since
you got married, right?
Is he high on romance?
Is he gifting you too often?
Yeah, he does.
Does he go away and talk
when he gets phone calls?
Not all. Some, he goes away.
- Why?
- It's nothing, Ramya.
Don't keep me in suspense.
Tell me.
There's that B-block Savitri, right?
She's been married for 10 years.
Her husband suddenly started
giving her a lot of gifts. Why?
Why?
Second set-up.
He gave gifts out of guilt.
That G-Block Janaki's husband?
Just a call,
and he runs to the bathroom
or the balcony to take it.
Why do you think?
Second set up.
He was maintaining Sim 2
while hiding it from Sim 1.
Ugh, stop it, you two.
Ramya, are you really suspecting Madhi?
Definitely.
He does everything they said.
The other day, I found
a restaurant bill in his pocket.
Table for two.
One was him.
Two wasn't me.
So? Can't he go
to a restaurant without you?
In Whole Heart Restaurant,
Tutti Fruity Lovers' Bite Cake.
Lovers' Bite Cake!
He didn't tell me all this.
Who did he go with?
Everything will seem odd
if you leave it to your imagination.
Do one thing.
Take Madhi to the same restaurant
and ask him,
"Have you ever been here?"
"Yes, I have."
If he says so,
you don't need to ask anything more.
No tension.
Have you ever been here?
"Eh, it's my first time."
If he acts this way...
It's my first time here.
It's nice, right? Come.
Your life is done for.
The service charge here is higher
than the starters' price.
What happened, Ramya?
Why are you like that? All okay?
You're giving me
a lot of gifts these days. Why?
Nothing really. You're my wife, right?
So, I'm giving them out of love.
Oh?
- Is it with love?
- Yeah.
Not with guilt?
It's fine. Tell me.
Yeah, I'm giving with a little guilt.
So, Ramya, I've gotten busy
with work these days.
I'm not spending
time with you, right?
- Oh, that guilt?
- Yeah.
Madhi?
Sometimes, when you
get a call from a number,
you go away and talk, right?
What number?
The one that ends with 7-5-3-6.
S-Seven?
Seven? 7-5?
7-5? 7-5-3-6?
7-5-3? Oh!
This is Rakesh Athula.
He's my childhood friend.
I talk to him sometimes.
Show me the number once.
- Why?
- Give. I'll tell you.
What happened, Ramya?
Madhi, before our wedding,
my mom asked me.
"Why are you marrying a guy like him?"
Then I said, "Madhi is very honest, Mom."
"I won't face any
problem in life," I said.
But look at you now.
Not one. Not two.
In the last 5 minutes,
you've lied to my face thrice.
Lied?
When did I lie, Ramya?
Huh? What are you say--
- What are you say-
- I found this in your pocket last week.
Table for two.
On the name of Madhusudhan Rao.
You said it was your
first time here, right?
Ramya, let me explain.
You're understanding it all wrong.
You're not guilty for not
spending time with me.
You're giving gifts out of guilt
for spending time with her.
Her?
With who?
I'll tell.
- With who?
- You said Rakesh, right?
But when I check the number,
look what comes up.
Jaganmo--
- You're understanding--
- To make sure I don't suspect you,
you go away and talk when she calls.
Last week, you came here with her, right?
- To eat Tutti Fruity Lovers' Bite Cake.
- No, Ramya!
I didn't think you were so filthy, Madhi.
Ramya, you've totally misunderstood me.
Why don't you say it?
That you have another girl.
What girl, Ramya?
Ramya, there's no girl.
Ramya--
Ramya, wait a second.
- Sir, sir, bill.
- Ramya!
- I'll pay later.
- You need to pay it, sir.
- Fine, where's the bill?
- I'll get it.
I have to wait now?
Ramya!
Ramya! Ramya!
Ramya, stop the car.
Ramya, what are you doing? Please.
Please, stop the car!
You're on the road, Ramya!
Ramya, please, at least
roll down the window.
Hey, Ramya, please, stop the car!
- The police will fine us, stop.
- Tell me.
- What?
- You're bored of me, right?
You're not attracted to me now, right?
No, Ramya. Why would I be bored of you?
I love you, Ramya. Please, stop the car.
You make an excuse every night
to go to her, right?
To who?
To that Jaganmohini.
You're acting like this while I was stuck
doing romantic melodrama for you. Ugh.
Ramya, Jaganmohini is my colleague.
It's a man.
What are you hiding?
- I'm not hiding anything.
- Tell me it's an affair.
Ramya, it's not an affair.
- Stop the car, please.
- Then, tell the truth.
- Or, I'll go and crash into something.
- Don't do it, Ramya, please.
- Ramya, please.
- Tell me!
Ramya, I'm a thief.
Madhi? Are you okay?
So? CCTV camera?
Security company? Friends?
That's a front.
All this is in the back.
Friends are a front.
Thieves in the back.
Security services is a front.
Theft services in the back.
Front and back.
- This is my job.
- Your job?
Jaganmohini's plan--
- Keys!
- Keys...
- Huh?
- Open it.
Bloody thief.
What will she do now?
- Are you okay?
- Huh?
Will you do me a favor?
Drop me home.
Why? What are you saying, Ramya?
I'm asking you to drop me home.
- Why?
- What should I do?
You're shamelessly
telling me you're a thief.
This had to happen.
"He's spontaneous.
Life will be never boring."
She thought and married him.
Now he dropped a bomb on her head.
Now, it won't be boring at all.
Non-stop entertainment.
Munch on popcorn and watch,
you dumb-ass.
- Listen--
- Don't touch.
Hey, I'll ask you one thing. Answer me.
You're educated. You're healthy.
What terrible thing
made you do these thefts?
Yeah, I know what you'll say.
I've seen this in many films.
"Dad had a health issue.
I didn't have money for the treatment."
"Relatives didn't help out.
I had to take a loan."
"Unable to pay back the money,
I became a thief."
- Is that it?
- Ramya, I swear.
This is the truth. It's not some movie.
Look.
It's not so simple for you
to take it for granted.
It's a serious matter.
It's my life.
Maybe you don't know,
but I had hospitals bills to pay.
Loan sharks' torture on the other end.
Do you know how much
my mom cried in between all this?
What could I do?
I tried doing a job, Ramya.
But, the salary wasn't enough
to afford even my dad's meds.
And on top of that, I had to pay interest.
How could I?
That's why, I took a
loan on my house and
got my dad treated.
If I don't pay them back,
we'll lose the house.
My parents will fall on the streets.
What's the point of having a son like me?
Tell me.
I will do anything to
save the house, Ramya.
Yeah, you'll do anything.
Even in such a rut, you'll marry someone
and ruin their life too.
You hid such a huge thing from me.
Isn't this a betrayal?
Ramya, I wasn't even interested
in marriage.
I would say something and
dodge all the matches somehow.
At such a time, I saw you at the wedding.
I liked you.
But, if I had told you the truth,
I was scared that you wouldn't marry me.
But, someday,
I'll let this all go. I want to clear
this loan and live happily with you.
I know everything I say
sounds selfish.
I didn't mean to betray you.
Promise.
Even after all this,
if you want to leave me,
I'll leave it to you.
I won't make a scene.
I'll make sure the
divorce is done quickly.
You get married. You get the divorce.
It's all your choice, right?
As soon as a problem arises,
you have to fight, leave and go.
That's it, right?
If I leave,
are you okay with it?
Don't you have any feelings?
- I'll go crazy, Ramya.
- Then why did you say divorce?
I don't know what to do.
Tell me. You tell me what to do.
I'll do whatever you say.
Then, I'm not the one
who has to leave you.
You need to leave thefts.
That's impossible, Ramya.
I need to clear this loan in eight months.
How can I?
I don't care, Madhi.
I have people counting on me.
What will Ravi and the others do?
Yeah, you're a Virat Kohli.
And everybody's counting on you.
Madhi,
should I stay or leave?
Stay, Ramya. Please.
I'm going inside.
I'll be out in the morning.
If you stop, I'll stay.
If not, I'll leave.
Ramya, please.
Ramya!
Ramya?
Ramya!
What?
Sorry.
We'll do whatever you say.
If you ever bring up divorce--
Promise.
Namaste, sir. I'm Madhusudhan Rao.
Here's my resume.
Sir, my file.
Madhi!
This is your seat.
- Asha Mary?
- Yeah?
- Will you wake up?
- No.
- You won't?
- No.
Then what are you here for?
I was just doing some breathing exercises.
Drool.
You're drooling.
- Wipe it.
- Oh, thank you.
It's the complaint you wrote.
I'm impressed actually.
Wow.
You're smart enough to complain
to my senior about me.
Good. He was your junior too.
You're over smart
to think he'd consider it.
Very good. But he's your junior.
And I'm your junior too.
You forgot the basic detailing that
he and I were classmates and best mates.
That's why my brain gets constipated
when I need to give you a criminal case.
What? Brain--
Don't search so hard.
I feel like giving.
But it won't come out.
Even after so much has happened,
I can't keep you in front of my eyes.
Please. Don't transfer me.
Hey, no. Transfer?
- Why would I transfer you?
- You won't?
I said I don't want you in front of me.
I didn't say I don't
want you at the station.
Meaning?
If anyone loses their job,
they'll fall on the road.
What if being on the road is the job?
- I didn't get it.
- Yes, I want this.
You keep tormenting me for a case, right?
I'll send you to a place
where you'll never get a case.
I'm throwing you on night patrol.
Have fun.
Sampath, Sampath.
Please. Listen to me, man.
I beg you. Sampu!
Don't throw me there, man.
Sampu! Sampath!
- Hey, man, Sampath.
- Man?
Sampath sir.
Sampath sir.
Please, I'll stay here and
do marriage counseling as you said.
Please don't send me there.
You should've thought of this
before you gave the complaint.
No. Please, Sampath.
Please, Sampath. Please, Sampath.
Madam. Don't worry, ma'am.
- I'll talk to him.
- What will you talk about? Get in.
Please don't mind him.
I'll listen to you.
Please, Sampath. Please, Sampath.
Please, Sampath.
Please, Sampath.
Take these keys.
Leave whenever you like. Go in.
- Please don't consider him.
- No way.
Your night patrol is confirmed.
Sampath! Sampath!
Sampath!
I have to go to night patrol?
Mental fellow.
THE POLICE ARE ALWAYS READY
TO FIGHT INJUSTICE
Asha Mary, alias, 'Problem Solver' Mary.
Welcome to Prem-Shyaam patrolling.
Did you ever imagine that you'd
start your shift at the end of the day?
Do you know,
our vehicle has good foresight.
- How?
- If you hit the brake in Ameerpet,
- it'll stop in Punjagutta.
- Not sure it'll stop there either.
For it to stop, the brake has to work
or someone needs to break under it.
Oh, no.
Many people fell in front of it.
In life, bad luck often shows up
in some or the other form.
- Come.
- Ugh.
- What next?
- 10 to 11, break.
- Why gap?
- Power nap.
- Power nap? What did we even do?
- We drank tea, no?
Holy hell.
Fine, you sleep.
At least, I'll switch on the police radio.
- Mary!
- Mary!
- What happened?
- How dare? Put it back.
Put it back. How dare!
We'll get a case only if we switch it on.
We can sleep only if you switch it off.
No radio. No case.
Only power nap.
Put on the mask. Don't snore.
Fine, fine. We've slept enough.
What next?
- Pick up.
- Who?
- Biryani.
- Biryani.
I don't understand any of
these covers or concepts.
- So simple. No duty.
- Only party.
- Yes.
- Party?
- Yes!
- Let's go!
Superb, man!
This is our life, Mary.
Car on road. Food on board.
Gap every hour. Nap every minute.
- The sun rises, duty goes to shed.
- And we go to bed.
If you hit the bed, you might fall asleep.
Until I solve at least one case,
I can't sleep.
- Case?
- Case?
If we look till morning,
we might find beer cases.
But never a real case.
You go ahead.
Sir. I think my salary
was credited a bit short.
Can you please check?
Is this your first job?
Nothing like that, sir.
Salary comes with TDS,
pension and PF cuttings.
Oh...
Oh, yeah, correct.
Correct. I...
I'll repeat the plan.
Listen carefully.
Last truck, unloading
will be done at 01:45 a.m.
Then, we will enter, from here.
There will be a watchman at that point.
Are you ready?
Ready.
Keep it at a distance.
He might die.
We need to get out of the emergency exit.
We have just 15 minutes.
Can we do it all in 15 minutes?
- If we use the lift?
- Lift condition?
It's a service lift. We can try.
Fine, where's Madhi?
He won't come, man.
Yeah, Madhi--
He's here! Come.
Did you have fun?
He's finally here.
Welcome sir.
It's been so long.
Should we give him an award?
Where were you, man?
Look at those clothes.
Like a credit card salesman.
Talk.
I told her.
- Told what?
- To whom?
Ramya.
I told her everything about our thefts.
What did she say?
What will she say?
- She asked me to leave.
- Hey.
This hurts me a lot, man.
I understand your pain.
Only I understand the pain caused
when a wife leaves you.
- When Priya left me--
- Hey! Hey!
- She didn't ask me to leave her.
- Then?
Everything we're doing.
She made me join a job.
I got my first salary today.
So, Ramya didn't leave you?
Oh!
- Why didn't I get such a wife!
- Hallelujah.
Priya is gone now.
What about the locker room?
We have a theft job in 2 days.
Now, "I'm married.
I'm doing a job. I'm leaving."
- How is that okay? Is this a joke?
- Hey, are you insane?
Hey. You were born with luck man.
Even after all this,
Ramya didn't leave you.
Look at how my wife left.
Dude, Ramya is your soul mate.
Hey, we need Jaganmohini's lockers.
Don't influence him with stupid quotes.
Idiot, they're not quotes.
It's true love.
Single guys like you won't get it.
Dude, get up. Get going.
- Get up.
- Go?
- Get up. Go.
- What are you doing?
- Go, man.
- We need Jaganmohini's--
- To hell with your Jaganmohini.
- You planned it.
What do you know?
You unmarried idiot.
- Wait, man.
- It'll all be ruined without him.
Move it, man.
You go, man.
Move it. Go.
We planned for six months.
We have two days. I'll deal with it.
Did you bring everything?
With the remaining money,
I could get a jasmine bunch and 3 lemons.
Theft days were better, madam.
I could've brought home
a jumbo mutton biryani and a kunafa.
Today, you made me buy lemons.
You should've called.
I would've sent you money.
That's not the point.
I can't even afford to cook biryani now.
Stupid job.
Let's eat lemon rice today. Come.
What lemon rice!
- I don't--
- Eat.
Madhi, we'll sort the loan somehow.
Please don't worry.
Mahesh bro, namaste.
I sent you the interest amount today.
Fine, son. But what about
the principal amount?
We'll have to get the
property transferred.
You know it already.
I'll call the lawyer in a week.
You'll have to sign the agreement.
Hey, Madhi!
Hey!
Madhi, where are you going?
- Move Ramya.
- I won't.
Your face and that outfit is suspicious.
Until you tell me,
I won't let you move an inch.
Fine, then, I'll go back.
- Get down, Ramya.
- You get down.
I will go.
I will not get down.
Hey! Madhi!
Are you back at it?
- You said you quit.
- I couldn't.
- I can't.
- Why?
You said you can be free
only when you get married.
Unless I clear this loan,
I won't feel free, Ramya.
Until then, our happy married life
won't start. Please understand.
I won't.
Are you crazy?
They'll think we're drunk.
Yes!
- CCTV Cameras?
- Check.
- Locker numbers?
- Check.
- Pocket hacker and tab?
- Check. All set.
Cool. Okay. Get ready.
- One last dance.
- Ready. Let's go.
Hey. Ramya!
Why did you bring Ramya?
- Ask her.
- Ramya!
- Why did you come?
- Huh?
The shouting donkey
disturbed the eating donkey.
I now get why your wife left you.
Ramya, you too?
Truck is gone.
We have to move.
Idiot. Move where? I'll kick your ass.
Forget the plan. We're calling it off.
Hey, hey, shut it.
Hey, Ravi. Don't make a scene.
- Let's execute the plan as is.
- You want to execute it?
You came like a couple
out for a post-dinner walk.
What execute?
- Move it.
- Hey, hey.
- Listen, man.
- But...
- No...
- Why should I listen to you?
Ramya. This is the last one.
If we do this one job,
our loan will be done.
Please, do me a favor.
What?
For 20 minutes,
don't think.
Wear this mask and do as I say.
That's it.
- Move, move.
- Let's go.
- Madhi?
- Hush!
Jaganmohini?
2-0-3-3
Got it.
1-1-2-5-6.
Dude! Hey!
[singing] I got gold for my Priya!
2-1-6-0! 2-1-6-0!
Got it.
Password?
6-6-9-9-6-6.
6-6-9-9-6-6.
6-6-6-9-6-9.
What did you do?
6-6-6-9-6-9 is the wrong code.
Do something man. Please.
- Stop the alarm, man.
- I'm trying. Wait.
- Madhi!
- Ramya, please, hold up.
I can't do anything.
- Sachin, don't say that. Keep trying.
- I'm blocked out.
Is this police alarm or regular alarm?
Oh, God!
Alert. Alert. From Banjara
Hills police station. Respond.
Banjara Hills patrol code 103.
Respond immediately.
Night patrol 2-4-3-3 responding.
Crescent Lockers, road number 3.
Alarm tripped.
Possible robbery. Immediate action needed.
How soon can you reach?
We'll be there in 8 minutes.
We're nearby. We're starting.
- Okay.
- Mary! Mary!
- What do we do?
- Boys, don't touch the money.
If we take any money,
we'll be in trouble.
- Dump all the money.
- He's right.
- Let's take some for diesel.
- No, please, listen to me.
Quick. Don't leave anything behind. Move.
Let's go. Move.
Move, move, move.
Patrol respond.
Yeah, we'll be there in 3 minutes.
Yes, hold on.
- Go faster.
- Stop the car.
- Why?
- We can't reach so soon in this car.
- Find some other car.
- Shut up, go faster.
Dude, what happened?
Why did it stop suddenly?
- You didn't listen to me.
- Madhi.
- Shut up.
- I'm scared. Do something.
Mary, why bother with the case?
Shall we go see the sunrise?
If we watch the sunrise,
it'll be the sunset for this case.
- Yes!
- Dude, are you okay?
Why are you driving at 40?
Drive at 70!
This car doesn't go faster than 40, ma'am.
What's the point of this car?
We could go in a bullock cart.
- Move. Quickly.
- It's open.
- Why are you so slow?
- Come on up.
- Go.
- Ramya.
- Hey, Madhi, come.
- Wait.
Come, quickly.
- Hey.
- Come quickly.
Ramya, you go. I'll come.
Go, Ramya. I'll come.
- Trust me, Ramya. Please, go.
- Madhi?
Trust me, go.
- Go, go, go, go.
- Madhi.
Madhi, hey.
Madhi!
Hey, police, police.
- Go back.
- Go, go.
Sir, sir, sir.
Some people in black clothes
got into a white Innova
- and took a right turn.
- Huh?
6-6-9-9 number. Go, sir, go.
Who are you?
What are you doing here?
Madam, I had a fight with my husband.
So, I came out to walk.
I heard an alarm go beep-beep.
Then, I saw some people in black clothes
get into a white Innova
and take a U-turn.
- Go after them, sir.
- Go.
Do you have some connection
to this couple's problems?
If you don't hit the accelerator,
then my fist and your head will have
a connection too. Go. Go.
- Go sir, go!
- Black clothes, white car, right turn.
- Go, go.
- Right or left? Right.
- Ramya, Ramya, get in.
- Where is he?
Hey, come fast.
- You.
- Come, come, fast.
- Are you okay?
- Get in!
- Get in.
- Quickly.
- What are you doing?
- Get in.
- Fighting on the road.
- Go, go.
Dude, Ramya seems scarier than the police.
It's fine if she scolds us.
But what is that girl doing?
Can't you see? She's cleaning.
Dude, I'm scared.
Ask her to say something.
What we did was wrong. But I
can't see you suffering because of us.
I just want you two to be happy.
If police comes, one of us will surrender.
We'll do something.
Just ask her to stop scratching.
I'm scared the stone will break.
- Call her, man.
- You call her.
- You call her.
- You call her.
Ugh, scared for everything.
Ramya?
Can you please come here?
Order, sir?
Dosa, puri and two cups of tea.
- One plate of--
- Hey. Are you here to eat?
Ramya, I'm very sorry.
Forget everything that happened
last night, please. Won't happen again.
From now, whatever you say.
- I'll do what you say.
- Thanks, Madhi.
Please listen to me.
Stop teaming up with these useless guys.
I'll continue the same job.
- These loans--
- Job?
Why? No need.
You stick to thefts.
I'm not kidding, Ramya.
I'm serious.
Hey, idiot. I'm serious too.
Listen,
I didn't fall for you
when I first saw you.
"Fine, my life with him won't be boring."
I thought and got married to you.
But, last night, goddammit.
I was so thrilled, you know?
What a pro thief you are!
What a talent!
You touch a lock, it opens.
You look at a CCTV,
it switches off.
Wow, wow, wow.
That speed. That calculation.
Next level!
Should've seen you when
we were stuck in the lift.
Even in such a stressful situation,
you used your mind, all calm and cool.
I was reminded of Dhoni.
Hey? Dhoni!
But these guys.
One can't differentiate between 6 and 9.
One doesn't know to check
the lift's condition.
This one? He left you and kept going
without looking back.
We would've gotten caught.
Straight jail.
But, we didn't get caught.
Thanks to who? To me.
They didn't do a thing.
Hey, get out of here.
I want some private space
with my man. Go.
Let's go.
Bye, man. Lucky fellow.
Look, Madhi. I'll get to the point.
I asked you to quit all this.
You did.
I asked you to do a job.
You did.
Did it work?
It didn't.
To get the money that we need
in the time we have,
to repay the loan,
this is the best option.
I get it now. You keep doing this.
- Huh?
- Yeah.
How Ramya? How can I do it?
How can I do it without them?
I'm not asking you to do it alone, Madhi.
I'm asking you to do it with me.
We're husband and wife, right?
Let's solve our problems ourselves.
Not just in life.
We're partners in this too.
Here.
Cheers, baby!
Why is he sitting like a shy lady?
Claps? Oh, he's gonna lecture us now.
You went to the temple to pray for
good luck but ended up losing your shoes.
That's your condition.
You shouldn't get a case.
So, I threw you with these idiots--
Sorry. I threw you on their patrol.
Even after getting such a huge case,
yet you ruined it yourself.
Your luck isn't bad or awful.
It's disastrous.
After seeing your work, not just me,
even he's ashamed.
They ran away when the alarm rang.
Nothing's gone.
- Don't overstep just because you're an SI.
- I'm a constable sir.
- Then, why are you speaking?
- If the vehicle was in condition,
they would've been in jail now.
You must have something funny
to say now. Say it.
"You might die. Go to the hospital."
He said, "I don't like
the color of the ambulance. I won't go."
That's your condition.
If the vehicle doesn't work,
you have to get down and run. Why?
Aren't you fit enough to do that?
Don't beg me for a case again.
You can't handle it.
Do you have it in you
to handle the station, idiot?
- Who did she call an idiot?
- You.
You said excuses, right?
This isn't an excuse.
You sent me to do counseling
without giving me a case, right?
That's an excuse.
- Asha Mary!
- "Asha Mary!"
Don't yell like a big shot.
To release your frustration on,
to joke on,
to prove you're a boss,
you need these people around you.
Everybody knows this.
But no one will say it.
Because they need to
satisfy your ego, right?
- Tell me this, idiot.
- She said idiot again.
- Shut it.
- After you became a station head,
- did anyone grow?
- He didn't grow either.
- She's right.
- Shut it.
- Sorry, sir.
- You talked about handling it, right?
If you have it in you, give me a case.
- Vigneshwar!
- I'm right here, sir.
The next criminal case we get,
it should go to Asha Mary.
Okay, sir.
If you solve it...
If you solve it...
I'll put up your cut out
in front of the station.
If you don't,
I'll cut you off from the department.
One more thing, don't call me an idiot
- in front of everyone.
- Okay, idiot.
- Please.
- Fine, go.
Thank you.
He sits on the jeep like a monkey.
Madhi!
Why did you lock the door?
Madhi!
Hey.
Hey, why is your face like that?
Say something.
How long will you be cold with me?
Have you gone crazy, Ramya?
- Have you gone crazy, Ramya?
- Why?
3 weeks earlier,
when I told you I was a thief,
you shook up the house.
This morning, 30 minutes earlier,
you were eating masala dosa
with sambar and said,
"What you're doing is right.
But do it with me."
Goddammit, my brain
has been stuck ever since.
How did you flip from that to this? How?
- Tell me one reason, Ramya. Please.
- I'll tell you two.
- Tell me.
- One,
every time you go out,
I can't take the mental stress
of worrying if you'll come
home, go to jail or die.
So, I will be with you.
Only then I can have confidence.
Two, you said we'll
have a happy married life
once this loan clears, right?
You were right.
I want that.
I need that fast.
Even I want it, Ramya.
I want it too.
In that, you and I are in perfect sync.
But, for the first reason?
- We both have a major difference in that.
- Why?
Because you're not a thief, Ramya.
It's not as easy as making a biryani.
I've been doing this for 10 years.
10 years!
It needs experience,
skill, planning, training...
You can't do it.
You don't have them, Ramya.
So, you think I can't do it?
Baby, you definitely can't do it.
I'm going home.
You're going home?
I'll come along.
Baby, I'm not going on a vacation.
Someone is snatching my house away.
I'm going to solve it.
My house is gone.
Just don't trouble me
for a few days. I beg you.
I waited for 10 years
since you're close to me.
But I now get that you can't do this.
- You need to vacate the house.
- Uncle.
I'm signing this
agreement since you asked.
But no matter what,
I'm not letting my house go.
Even if I have to pay you extra,
I will save my house.
That's our house.
Huh? Everything is favored towards me.
- Ravi?
- How is she gone?
What are you doing?
I was checking 'FLAMES' for Priya and I.
We got 'Love'.
Where are Sachin and Sandeep?
They left.
We stopped everything, right?
- Oh, is that why you kept calling me?
- No.
Didn't you speak with Ramya?
- With Ramya?
- Yeah.
Ramya? Ram--
Ramya, why did you go to the shop?
Why did you go to the shop?
- What is it?
- Why did you go to the shop?
- Tell me, Ramya.
- Wait, I'll tell. Come.
- What are--
- You said I can't do it, right? Look.
Come. These are pin pokers
To open tumbler locks.
These are cutting pliers,
to open small wires,
chain and lock boxes.
This is a tool picking kit.
This is a signal jammer,
- to hack into CCTV cameras.
- Stop it, Ramya.
I already said no.
Why are you doing all this?
- No, Madhi.
- What no?
I said no. Why don't you listen to me?
Everything's so messy and here, you are--
- Madhi!
- Please, Ramya!
I can't put you in danger.
Please understand.
Hey!
Come, let's go for a walk.
Shut up and come.
Um, Madhi...
What was the first movie
you watched in the theater?
Tell me.
"Kushi." I watched it in 4th grade.
- You?
- I was very late.
My parents never let me
to go to the theater.
So, for the first time,
I jumped the wall and
went to "Khaleja", night show,
in my 10th grade.
But I could watch half of it.
My dad found out.
He dragged me back home.
Next day, he increased the wall's height.
So, you never went again?
Of course I did.
My dad increased the wall's height thrice.
Ramya, you don't listen to anyone, do you?
Correct. I don't listen to anyone.
I can tell.
So, Madhi, I've always been like this.
If someone say, "You can't do it."
I feel like proving them wrong.
What are you doing, Ramya?
Are you--
Ramya. Ramya!
Hey, Ramya, Ramya!
I'm going. Come if you want to.
Oh, God!
Ramya, what are you doing?
Come out.
Ramya! Ramya!
Ramya!
Ramya?
Ramya? Ramya?
Ramya!
Madhi.
- What are you doing there?
- Come up.
- Come up.
- You've gone crazy!
What are you doing, Ramya?
I already did my recce the other day.
The main door outside?
10-inch mortise lock.
Home Wi-fi. CCTV Camera.
I blocked them with the jammer.
This is a defender prime safe. 8-lever.
I learnt from your notes.
- How did you know no one was home?
- I walk with Mehta auntie.
She went to Darjeeling with her family.
How do I convince you?
Look, I want you.
If doing this means I'll get you back,
then let's do it.
If we do it together,
we'll be done in no time.
If you don't do this,
can you sleep peacefully?
It's for us, right?
It's for our marriage, right?
Let's do it, Madhi.
Let's have some tea?
Look, Ramya,
since we're doing this together,
I have a few rules.
If you cross any rule,
I'll shut the whole thing down.
Fine, tell me.
Rule No.1: We will only do this
until our loan is done.
Yeah, correct. Next?
Next, get me the sugar.
Rule No.2.
Wherever we steal from,
we can't leave any trace or evidence.
A small mistake can ruin our life.
- Rule No.3.
- Tell me.
As per law, one can't keep
more than 2 lakhs in their house.
But, in many big houses,
there's a lot of unreported cash.
If we steal that,
they can't go to the police.
That way, we'll be safe.
Nobody will suspect us.
And, we'll only steal cash.
We can't touch anything else.
KONIDELA RESIDENCE
DAGGUBATI RESIDENCE
- Madhi?
- Yeah.
- Don't you see it?
- See what?
Did you leave something?
Look at the dry stains on the table.
Look at the books stuffed in the rack.
Look at the clothes on the sofa.
Look at the dust on the fan.
So what?
Do it.
Ramya, what are you doing?
- Are you hungry or not?
- So what?
- I'm asking why you're cooking here.
- Shut up and cut onions.
I yelled at Sampath without thinking.
What if he doesn't give me a case?
Mary, don't worry.
You'll get a case.
You got it.
You come into my life
every time I think it can't get any worse.
Most of your salary must be
wasted on postal stamps.
- Did you sign it?
- No.
- What's your problem?
- That's my doubt too.
What's the problem with our life?
I won't say. Sign it
and divorce me.
Excuse me.
What happened to you?
Remember how you were
when we were newly wedded?
Surprise birthday parties. Weekend movies.
You planned so many things.
If I was even a little late from
the office, you'd get angry.
If tiny fights that we
could easily get through
seem like they're big
enough to divorce over,
then think where we went wrong.
The day you understand the actual
issue in our marriage,
ask me that day.
I'll sign it.
Until then, I love you.
Get lost. Go.
- Sign it, man! Hey!
- I won't.
Mary ma'am. Sir is calling you.
- I won't come.
- There's a case. Don't you want it?
- Case?
- There's a case?
We have the most apt and
perfect police for this case, ma'am.
- Really?
- It's as if she was born for this case.
I missed the shot.
But she won't.
Oh?
- Sir!
- Hey! What a timing!
In terms of talent,
I should be saluting her.
But these stars are stopping me.
Please sit, Asha Mary.
You won't believe me but
she never failed to solve a case.
- You never gave me one.
- Exactly.
Supremely undeniable talent.
We couldn't use her talents.
She remained head constable.
- She would've been an ACP or DCP by now.
- Who?
I'm talking about you.
Very sarcastic also.
This is Ms. Karuna.
She just filed a complaint.
Go to the crime location.
Record even the minute detail.
Of course, I don't need to tell you.
Start the investigation
on first priority basis.
- Me?
- Yes.
- Case?
- Yes.
- Investigation?
- Yes.
Why is she so excited
as if this is her first case?
That is Asha Mary.
She considers all her cases
as her first case.
- Strictly investigates. What's this case?
- My first case.
- See?
- Superb!
- Perfect attitude.
- I told you, right?
If you lodge a complaint here,
we won't forget a single detail.
You're in safe hands, Ms. Aruna.
My name isn't Aruna, sir. It's Karuna.
Exactly.
I never got such
a high profile case, ma'am.
I'm very happy. Please tell.
I went to Shimla on the 25th.
A trip with my Sexy Sixties group.
There's such a group?
- There's a Naughty Nineties too.
- Naughty?
Before I left, I locked all the doors.
High security locks.
When I returned, those locks--
- Were they broken?
- No, no.
They were the same as I left them.
Perfectly locked.
When I came inside,
the whole was very clean, ma'am.
- So, they took everything?
- No, no.
Someone came to my house,
cleaned it neatly and left, ma'am.
Okay.
They cleaned it.
But, where's the crime?
Come, I'll show.
I came in here to drink some water.
- Was there a dead body?
- No, ma'am.
This was here.
Taste it, ma'am.
- Now?
- Please taste it.
It's nice, right?
It's nice. Did you make it?
No ma'am. They did.
They cooked biryani?
We're taking so much from them.
If we just leave, it
won't feel good, Madhi.
We need to give something back, right?
Like an apology.
You're such a nice girl, Ramya.
I have an idea.
Take a print of your Aadhar card,
PAN card and bank statement...
Write behind, "My husband and I
stole money from your house."
"But please have some biryani."
Dumbass. Take it out.
Come.
Is there a DNA test for biryani?
How will they catch us?
Nice. They made biryani.
- Yes.
- But what's the crime?
Come, ma'am. I'll show.
Here, there was a pink elephant
porcelain doll, ma'am.
A doll?
If we get caught because of this doll,
I'll go to jail by myself.
Oh? If you go, should I sit here
and clean the dishes?
Dumb-ass.
Rule is a rule.
We'll both end up in jail.
Hey, I'm not kidding.
Now you came to the point.
Theft case.
Pink 'parcel' elephant doll.
- Not 'parcel'. It's porcelain.
- Yes, that.
Tell me, how much money is gone?
How much gold?
Money wasn't stolen.
All the valuables are safe in the safe.
But,
this pink elephant doll.
This is of the highest value.
- So, does it cost about 2 lakhs?
- No, ma'am.
- So, 10 thousand?
- No, ma'am.
- What's it's value then?
- Sentimental value, ma'am.
This my late husband's
last gift to me, ma'am.
So, the thieves broke into
you house without breaking the locks.
- Yes.
- They cleaned the whole house.
They cooked biryani and
- stole your pink elephant 'parcel' doll.
- Yes, ma'am.
- I need to note this down.
- That's the case, ma'am.
- This is the case.
- Yeah.
Did you narrate this to our SHO Sampath?
I told him 10 times, ma'am.
That's why he sent you.
He said you were the
"perfect police" for this.
- Sign it, ma'am.
- Okay.
Here.
- Give me that biryani too.
- Why?
- It's evidence, right?
- Okay.
Pink, elephant, parcel doll.
They cooked biryani.
They didn't break any lock.
They cleaned the house.
Sampath!
"To fight against injustice,
the police are always ready."
Hey, we understood Mary.
- She brought us biryani.
- How dare you give me this case?
Didn't find any other case to give me?
- This tastes familiar, man.
- Cheap fellow.
The smell is nice.
Must be Shah Ghouse.
Meat is perfect. Must be Paradise.
- Shah Ghouse.
- Paradise.
The masala is nice, Paradise.
You don't know anything.
Mary! She snatched away delicious biryani.
- Why did you order it then?
- This isn't hotel biryani.
It's evidence biryani.
You ruined the one evidence I had.
Evidence biryani?
Didn't I say it tasted familiar?
Familiar? Which hotel did you eat it in?
Not a hotel.
That was a rainy night.
- When we went to the Gandipet PS...
- We both were already very hungry.
- But we wanted something new.
- At the right time, Santosh Singh came.
Who is Santosh Singh?
An old friend who worked at
the Gandipet PS.
He handed our hungry souls
a biryani that he found as evidence.
- We were starving already.
- It smelled like heaven to us.
We didn't wait. We forgot that it's
evidence and ate with no evidence left.
Do you have Santosh Singh's number?
Theft happened.
They cooked biryani?
They cleaned the house with phenol?
Here, house got cleaned.
Here, pink elephant doll.
Tell me if you have any information
about the suspects.
Did the neighbors see anything?
What about the CCTV footage?
It's missing?
This is such a weird case, you know?
House. Clean. Biryani. Repeat.
Some other areas had similar reports.
But no case got filed.
Two thefts in one area?
Where were the owners at the time?
Which area?
Which area?
Which area?
This area has rich houses too.
There could've been a theft. Let's go.
What now?
You want us to search every house?
I thought if not for the case,
you'd at least come for the biryani.
- Is it that evidence biryani?
- Yes.
- Why didn't you say so?
- Let's go.
All good, Daddy. We're fine.
Madhi's parents are here.
We're coming to you tomorrow.
- Look at how cute they are.
- How so, Dad?
There's a lot of work here. Don't come.
Why are you asking us not to come?
It's been 6 months since we saw you.
You didn't come for the festival either.
We're coming. That's it.
Testing to see if we're happy or not.
Oh? Are you happy?
Why do you ask so?
You're having to lie so much for me.
Sometime I feel
if I was a doctor or an engineer,
maybe our life would've been better.
Stop it.
We're living the best life.
Who gets this much
time with their husband?
- Really?
- I'm so happy that you're a thief.
If you were a doctor or an engineer,
would I have so much thrill in life?
I would have to sit at home wondering,
"When will he be back."
Should I keep waiting
for the calling bell all night?
They shouldn't be back
for two days, right?
If they were owners,
they'd come right in.
Do you think the neighbors
suspected something?
Did you leave the light on downstairs?
- Who do you think it is?
- I don't know. But I have to see.
- Let's run away from the backdoor.
- No, listen to me.
Let me look. We'll know who it is.
- Madhi, no, we'll get caught.
- Wait, listen to me, please.
Please calm down.
Yes, ma'am?
- Hi, who are you, ma'am?
- Police.
Police!
Baby, she's police it seems.
At this hour, ma'am?
Myself, Asha Mary. Banjara Hills
Police Station, Head Constable.
I'm here for a small inquiry, sir.
Inquiry?
- What inquiry?
- It's pouring outside. Please.
- Please let me in. Please.
- Yeah, of course.
- Are you crazy?
- What can I do?
What if she finds out?
Don't make a scene. I beg you.
Why are you--
- Sir?
- Yes, ma'am?
Can you give me some hot water?
My throat hurts.
Oh, sure.
Baby, she wants hot--
Baby? Ma'am wants hot water.
Excuse me, ma'am, we'll get the hot water.
I want to help her.
I saw husbands who help in cooking.
A husband who helps
with boiling water? Wow.
- Are you sure it's her?
- Absolutely, it's her.
Fine, let's talk and send her off.
We can't raise suspicion. Got it?
Please. Smile.
Okay?
If we smile like this,
she'll think we're crazy.
- We'll get caught for sure.
- Did you get what I told?
- Yeah, yeah.
- Ready?
- What's this for?
- Will you clean or should I?
Ugh, I blame the day I married you.
Hold this.
Come.
Madam?
Thank you.
- Oh, no sir. This is my fault.
- It's okay.
It's okay, ma'am. It's not a big deal.
He's used to it.
I'm used to it. I am.
You said you came for an inquiry?
- I'll get to the point.
- Yes, please.
You are thieves.
Imagine.
If you come to such house to rob,
what will you take?
What else, ma'am?
Gold... Electronics...
Antiques and money, that kind of stuff.
- Right?
- Yeah.
But do you know what
these thieves are doing?
They're going to such houses and
cleaning until the floors shine.
Just like this.
Oh, my God!
They're cleaning!
- How-How crazy!
- Sir!
- You'll be shocked if you hear this.
- Please tell us.
They're going to each house and
- cooking biryani.
- Bir--
- Biryani?
- Yes.
Biryani, baby!
How strange!
- Oh, my God.
- That isn't some ordinary biryani.
People are crazy about it.
Our constables are fighting to eat it.
They said they never had
such a biryani in their life.
What else are they saying, ma'am?
Baby, do we need reviews and ratings now?
Why is ma'am here? For the case.
Tell us, ma'am. What was the case?
I mean, what was gone?
You'll laugh if I tell.
We're not in a state to laugh now, ma'am.
A small
pink 'parcel' elephant
doll went missing.
That's the case.
Pink.
'Parcel'. Elephant.
Didn't I say you'd laugh?
But this is not a small thing.
They're stealing something else too.
But the owners are not revealing it.
Because, black. Black money.
But, why did you come to this--
I mean, our house, ma'am?
Thefts are happening in such rich houses.
- I came to inquire if something happened.
- Point, point.
- This is a safe area, ma'am.
- Yeah, yeah.
- Very secured.
- Yeah.
Good, but if something happens,
here's my number. Asha Mary. Banjara Hills
Police Station, Head constable. Call me.
Sure.
- Thank you. Sorry for disturbing.
- See you, ma'am.
Need more hot water?
What happened, ma'am?
Is everything okay?
You seem familiar.
Me?
Earlier, when I opened the door.
She peeked to see you.
Not that.
Yeah!
That day, on the locker room. You
were on the road. I was on night patrol.
You gave me correct
information about the thieves.
- Oh, that was you?
- Yes, it was me, Asha Mary.
Did you find them, ma'am?
They ran away.
That day, you said you and
your husband had a fight.
Is this him?
You asked for my Instagram
password, right? That was the fight.
Small fights.
- Did you apply?
- What for?
Divorce.
Why divorce for such tiny things, ma'am?
Let me know if you need counseling.
No need ma'am. We're
made for each other, right?
Everybody thinks so.
Did you decide?
Did you decide to go to jail?
No, Madhi.
We're shutting everything down.
Every thing.
Idiot. Wants to make biryani.
Don't touch the mop. Throw it down.
He has white hairs now.
Mr. Sampath.
This isn't as simple as we thought.
t's not.
Such cases were filed in 7 other stations.
Oh, 7 stations?
What went missing?
- Nothing.
- If nothing is missing, how is it a case?
Something is gone,
but they're not telling.
- Who said that?
- I feel it.
- You feel it?
- Yeah.
No, Mr. Sampath. If you give me a backup,
I'll follow up and find them.
What's our case?
The missing doll.
Let me know if you find it.
I'll sell my wife's jewelry and
get you a gold medal.
Put our trash in others' house.
Don't put their trash in ours. It's basic.
- Mr. Sampath?
- Get out.
Why are you so worried, ma'am?
Only my name has Asha, hope.
My life is just hopeless.
Nothing new, ma'am.
Work place has such issues.
As if my home is all great.
When I was worried about not getting
cases, you know what my husband said?
He said, "Quit your job."
Will he quit?
He will fight for it, right?
Then why don't I get that choice?
What do I want?
One case, whether small or big.
I want to solve one case,
look at my self in the mirror and say,
"Well done, Asha Mary."
You're right, ma'am. You need this case.
But why is it like this?
Can't these rich folks keep calm?
Do they need to keep roaming?
You said it. They have money.
They go on holidays.
Sounds like it. Our middle class people
go to weddings and events.
Our salaries are less.
Holidays and leaves are less.
And these rich people
keep going on holidays.
Holidays!
Holidays!
Around the world travel agency.
An agent name Parvathy.
- There, Parvathy!
- Yes, ma'am.
- She's cleaning here too.
- Yes. Yes. Come. Come.
Why wait? Let's tell Sampath sir
and arrest her.
It's not so easy.
Is it just Parvathy or is there a gang?
We need to catch them red-handed.
But we need Sampath to cooperate.
How is that possible?
Small case should blow up.
I will do it.
We can't leave any evidence.
My dad is like a police dog.
If he gets a doubt,
he'll catch us for sure.
- Madhi?
- Yeah.
Come here.
- Madhi?
- Yeah?
Only one is left.
Can we finish this?
You've gone crazy, Ramya.
You've gone crazy.
Police are looking for us.
What if we get caught?
If we don't pay back,
we'll lose the house.
- Hi, Mom. Come.
- Hi, Dad. Come in.
Come in. Come, Dad.
- Give it to me.
- No, no.
- How are you, Dad?
- I'm well.
Hey, what's this terrible state?
Didn't you shower?
Go fresh up. You're embarrassing us.
- Go to your daughter-in-law.
- I thought you'd change after marriage.
Madhi, I guess your loan
will clear out this month.
- Yes, Dad.
- Very good.
Ramya, you're his lucky charm.
Madhi, don't relax now that you're done.
Keep doing what you were doing.
Do more.
I was saying the same thing, Dad.
Your son isn't listening.
Cleaning. Thieves. Biryani.
Maybe these 3 don't have a sync.
But they do have a link.
If thieves attack, the house gets messy.
But here, the house gets cleaned.
Thieves usually loot you.
But, these thieves?
They feed you.
Can't believe this?
They seem like your friends, Ramya.
We've tasted all types of food
in Andhra and Telangana.
But, how is this biryani so delicious?
Please tell us the recipe.
Our Tiny Tiger is crying for that biryani.
- Who's that?
- Tiny Tiger. My grandson.
Biryani was insane.
The mutton bone was banger.
-Please get it for me grandpa.
- I will.
I don't know who you are.
I don't know where you live.
But you know where we live, right?
Please, make us that biryani.
They will. They know
what I'll do if they don't.
We recently went to Maldives.
When we returned, our villa was shining.
We don't get how they removed
the stain in the marbles.
-And, we're going to the UK.
- Oh really, Raja?
I've been trying to recreate
that biryani every day. But I couldn't.
The house is clean.
The biryani was tasty.
Thank you. But please return
my pink elephant porcelain doll.
Please, it's very sentimental to me.
This case is not as simple as you think.
Says Ms. Asha Mary,
the investigating officer on this case.
Namaste. Such incidents have been
taking places all around us.
They're not harming anyone or
stealing anything of value.
When someone's not home,
breaking in is a crime.
Even if they clean and cook biryani,
it's still a crime.
You could get a sentence of two years.
This is a challenge to the police.
My name is Asha Mary.
Head constable of Banjara Hills.
Even by searching every nook
and corner of Hyderabad, I'll find them.
Dad! They're doing this for TRP.
Your mom and you.
Why won't you let me watch?
It's peaceful now.
Why are you silent?
Our names aren't out, right?
I am done, Ramya.
I can't do this anymore.
Ramya?
- Yes, Dad?
- Come here.
Dad?
Was there a pink elephant doll here?
- Dad, you saw that on the TV.
- No, I saw it here.
- I think I saw it too.
- Dad, sit down.
- You saw it on the TV.
- I'll get the sweet.
- I saw it there.
- No, brother, you saw on TV.
You saw it on TV.
- Can't I tell the difference between TV--
- You've lost your mind due to TV.
Oh, why say such a thing?
Ramya.
- Come out. I need to talk to you.
- Dad...
Come out. I need to talk to you.
Dad, what happened?
Look Ramya, when I saw the cleaning and
biryani on TV, I took it as a joke.
I even had a doubt how you were able to
repay your loan this quickly.
The pink elephant doll from the TV
is in your house.
What do you and your husband do?
Dad, I don't know what--
Do not lie. Tell me the truth.
Dad, this our life. We'll deal with it.
So, you're accepting it?
You're accepting it.
- I shouldn't blame you.
- Dad!
- What happened?
- Wait, Padma.
Rascal!
You ruined her life.
- Aren't you ashamed, you crook?
- What are you saying?
Don't you get it?
That biryani, her
cleaning, that elephant doll.
The thieves on the TV are
your son and my daughter.
What is this? Why don't you speak up?
What will he say?
It's bad enough that he's a thief.
He turned my daughter into a thief too.
You betrayed us.
Dad, Madhi didn't force me into anything.
Shut it. I knew you were extra. But I
never thought you'd become a criminal.
What's this? Is he right?
Say something.
- Dad, listen to me.
- What's left to say? Pack, come with us.
I won't go anywhere. This is my house.
- Madhi, tell him.
- What will he say now?
Ah, you said, "My son is gold!"
You said, "It's my guarantee."
- Your son is a fraud. You're a fraud.
- Uncle.
Please.
You've said enough already.
Enough.
They too found out the truth just now.
They're hurt twice as much as you are.
If anyone's at fault here, it's me.
Blame me.
You said earlier
that I ruined your girl's life.
Take her with you.
Heard him?
Pack and move out.
What did you say?
He's right, Ramya. At this time,
it's better if you're with your parents.
Go.
Got it? Now, go pack.
I will send
the divorce papers in two days.
If you sign it, it'll be done silently.
Or I'll pull everyone to the streets.
Let's go, Padma.
What's this? Is this what
you've been doing all this while?
This is all for the house. Let it go.
You and your mom are my home.
I'm happy if you two are happy.
I'll feel like living longer.
This is all because of me.
Even by searching every nook
and corner of Hyderabad,
I'll find them soon.
What's your obsession with
coming on TV, Asha Mary?
Either they'll come to you
or you'll go to them.
Plus your dramatic dialogues.
"My name is Asha Mary.
Head constable of Banjara Hills"
"I'll search every nook.
I'll inspect every hook."
Quit this job and become a host.
You can appear every day.
Read the sponsors' names and live rich.
- I didn't see another way, Sampath.
- You don't have another way.
I got calls from the DSP.
If you don't catch them in five days...
Hold one of the two.
- But there's only one?
- Exactly. Straight to suspension.
- Really? Give me a back up, Mr. Sampath.
- First, change that expression.
Back up is out there. Go.
- Back up? Really?
- Yeah.
Thank you, Mr. Sampath.
Thank you! Yes!
Prabhakar, get this TV removed.
I'm unable to take it.
Look, Ramya, forget what happened.
That criminal isn't right for you.
Sign the divorce papers.
I won't.
Until you sign those papers,
I won't open the door. Stay inside.
- What happened?
- Stay out of this, Padma.
It's nothing, Mom.
This is how it has always been.
My life has never been in my hands.
Did Dad ever ask me what I want?
He dragged me here.
- He asked you to leave, right?
- Not just you. He's also the same.
He kicked me out of my own house.
I'm going. I have some things to wrap up.
I won't open the door.
I won't let you out.
Don't, Dad.
Change the locks immediately.
Anybody with a pin can open it.
Mom's gold is in there. Your call.
- Ramya!
- Let her go.
- My dear team.
- She's here.
Yes, madam.
My career and my future are in your hands.
This is my final chance to prove myself.
FATHER-IN-LAW
Hello, Uncle. Namaste.
- Did she reach?
- Who?
What do you mean who? Ramya.
- Ramya didn't come here.
- She didn't?
She left in the evening.
I don't get it.
I'll find her, Dad.
Don't worry.
Madhi, can we finish this one?
Stop. This is it.
- Yes, ma'am.
- I think they're here.
Really, ma'am?
Somebody is moving.
- I think it's them.
- Yes, ma'am.
- Should we go?
- Let's go.
Come.
Grab the torches.
- I'll say 1, 2, 3.
- Okay, ma'am.
- One.
- One.
- Two.
- Two.
- Three.
- Three.
Thieves! Thieves!
No, no, police! Police!
- Thieves.
- Thieves! Thieves!
- We're at the wrong house. It's not them.
- Yes, ma'am. We barged in unnecessarily.
Prem, Shyam come in. This is the
wrong house. What's going on there? Over.
- Mary, we're going inside.
- Quickly! Over.
- Hey?
- Yeah?
Hey, the lights went on inside.
Lights are on. Let's go.
Prem, Shyam come in, come in.
Prem? Shyam? Where are you?
Mary, the robbery just began.
Yes! Who's there?
- There's a girl.
- Is it Parvathy?
- No.
- It's not?
Whoever it is, go in and arrest her.
I'll reach in 10 minutes.
- We won't go.
- Why?
She didn't start cooking biryani yet.
Ugh, I beg you.
Don't ruin my case for your biryani.
- Why will we let them go?
- Come quickly.
Don't blink.
Ramya? Ramya?
Ramya.
Listen.
Ramya, listen to me.
Who are you? Who are you?
- Who are you to ask me to leave?
- It felt right, Ramya.
- Why are you here despite the risk?
- Risk?
- You're talking about risk?
- We don't have the time to argue--
I took this stupid risk when I stayed
with you despite knowing you are a thief.
When I became your partner in crime?
I took it then too.
- Ramya...
- What was that?
You said I was doing
this for my thrill, right?
I already have a reputation
that I go an extra mile for thrill.
For that clarification, I came alone.
But I didn't feel anything, Madhi.
No thrill at all.
When will you get it?
My thrill, my happiness, my excitement.
It's all you.
- Prem, Shyam?
- Yes, Mary, where are you?
I'm here.
It's them?
My dad brought divorce papers.
The old man doesn't know
I'm crazy about you.
You can't be in a problem, Madhi.
If there's anything, I feel
like solving it immediately.
I feel like anything to make it happen.
Goddammit, I even became a thief.
I did so much for you.
Don't you get it?
I'll ask you something.
When I found out you were a thief,
did I leave you?
But you?
You said so easily, "Go, Ramya."
Did you marry me to leave me after all?
I said so much and yet you said nothing.
Hi!
- Salute, boys!
- Sir.
Wow.
Even a broken close
is right twice a day.
Similarly, you showed the station
who you are. Hats off.
I promised I'd put up your cut out
if you caught the thieves.
I might break the law of
nature and get pregnant.
But I won't break my word.
Here's the cut out.
- Do you see her shocked look?
- Thank you, Sampath.
Don't thank me for putting up the cut out.
Thank them for getting caught.
- Take them.
- Okay, sir.
Sir.
What's with this cleaning and biryani?
My wife felt every house as her own.
That's why the cleaning and cooking.
Madam, can you please get us some tea?
Two cups of tea.
I feared this day would come, Ramya.
I didn't want to see
you in this situation.
I didn't want to ruin your life.
That's why I asked you to leave that day.
Nobody ever loved me like you did, Ramya.
I didn't even know how to
take so much love either.
After we got married,
you changed for me and I changed for you.
But we never sat down
and planned our life.
That's why, today,
I couldn't protect you
in such a situation.
Our life was so good, Ramya.
But if God gives me one more chance,
I want to live in that same house,
enjoying your biryani.
Break the tiles by cleaning
them over and over.
We get tired and lie on that sofa.
Watch some movie on TV.
I want to sleep on your lap, Ramya.
I'm sorry, Ramya.
- I'm really sorry.
- Why are you apologizing?
I should apologize.
It's all because I was stubborn.
We're here, like this.
All I wanted was to clear our loan
and start our life the way we wanted it.
That's it.
But I don't regret anything, Madhi.
I was happy with you all this while.
Even when we fought
or yelled at each other,
I never felt like leaving you.
Our marriage is perfect.
But the fault is all mine, Ramya.
If I didn't involve you in all this,
we wouldn't be here.
I got involved. It's my mistake.
I'm sorry, Madhi.
I didn't tell you that I was a thief.
- That was my first mistake.
- I knew it and still became a thief.
- It's my mistake. I'm sorry.
- I'm sorry first.
- I continued it. I'm sorry--
- Ugh, shut it.
Same drama everywhere.
I was happy to get a case and
relieved of that marriage counseling.
But here? Same drama.
Just, "it's your mistake" changed
to "it's my mistake". That's it.
Madam, they're the kind to
blame each other for tiny things.
We're not like that.
No matter what the problem is,
we sit down,
have some tea, talk and sort it.
Was it a love marriage, bro?
Greeting to my media friends.
When police work with dedication,
discipline and honesty,
what can we do for the society?
Today, Banjara Hills police showed it.
"Asha Mary. I'm with you."
I led her forward by saying,
"The whole police department is with you."
In today's world, where we throw
our trash in others' houses,
I took on the cases from other stations
and got the inquiry done.
And its result?
Today, such a big case was solved--
B-By us.
You all know that Sampath
never takes the credit.
The whole credit goes to Asha Mary.
Give her a big hand.
Come, Asha Mary.
We didn't catch some ordinary thieves.
They're serial thieves.
So, we kept them
in a high security prison.
I'll take them to court myself.
What say, Asha Mary?
There's only one thing
to say about Asha Mary.
"Mom, mango pickle and Mary."
"They never run out of style."
Says our constable Bharati.
- Sir, my name is Vaishnavi.
- Crazy girl.
So I-- Go.
She works very hard.
You got me a case and
made me confident.
Now, I give you your 'parcel' doll.
Oh, my baby.
Thank you so much Ms. Mary.
- My pleasure.
- But it's porcelain. Not 'parcel'.
I can't pronounce it.
Ma'am, party?
- Actually, you were a 100% right sir.
- Right?
It's as if she was born for this case.
It's as if I grew up just for this case.
But, ma'am, it's all about the detailing.
I still remember every detail
you gave since day one, Ms. Prerna.
- My name is Prerna sir. It's Karuna.
- Exactly.
Go home peacefully.
We'll take the Bunty and Babli to court.
Thank you.
Thank you so much, Ms. Mary.
- Thank you, sir. Thanks a lot.
- Nothing like a satisfied customer.
Mary, are you ready?
It's time to shock the world. Let's go.
Oh, no, Sampath!
Mary, where are they?
They left long ago, sir.
- Not everybody is as honest as me.
- Why are you interfering? Go inside.
Sampu, no.
- Sister? Are they in the vehicle?
- No.
- Are they in the bathroom?
- No.
- Did they run away?
- Madam let them go.
Let them go? Why?
Didn't you say that
the doll was important, Mr. Sampath?
We found the doll.
So, why bother with court and case?
I let them go.
Holy shit.
I spoke movie dialogues
in front of the media.
What should I tell them now?
Tell them that we shouldn't put
others' trash in our house, Mr. Brother.
Asha Mary!
Coming, coming.
Why so suddenly?
Don't say you want me to sign.
I want tea.
What more do I need?
You need Ramya Biryani House's
Dongal Biryani.
At Hi-tech City and Kondapur.
And newly opening at Banjara Hills.
No, why is it wrong here?
If they use card, we'll be taxed.
From now, only cash.
Madam? What are you doing here?
I'm going back on duty.
I came to check if you're being good.
Oh!
But I came for biryani.
Come, sir, have a seat. Come, ma'am.
- Hey, Ramesh!
- Yes, anna.
- Two of our signature.
- Okay, anna.
Two special.
Okay.
Two special it seems.
You are my special.
Oh, Priya!
Stop your stupid romance and get to work.
We have a lot of orders.
- Come.
- Yes, ma'am.
- What are you doing here?
- My wife and I work here, ma'am.
Oh, nice, nice. Good.
- Thanks, ma'am.
- Serve it.
This is my wife's special biryani.
We should be thanking you.
It's because of you
that we're back together.
Sir, we should be thanking ma'am.
Did you really stop?
Yeah, of course.
All that was...
...a thing of the past.
