"Only then will everything burn to cinders." "He thinks it's a big departmental store." "He refuses to file a complaint." "Just watch it burn." "Why did you snuff it out?" "The light's on." "Is it on?" "Watch!" "Oh, no!" "It is burning brighter once it's broken." "I'll break that too." "Someone's going to hear all this and come out." "If I don't pull out that bulb..."

"I was all alone, they had big weapons." "I chased them and thrashed them." "I caught one of them." "What did you do to him?" "He fell at my feet and cried." "I told him never to step into the village as long I was there." "Take off your hand." "This is the map of our village." "No one can enter or leave without our knowledge anymore." "I have brought the whole village under a protective cover." "Before that, give me your gun." "If they come today, I will shoot them from a distance." "Head constable, why did you die?" "What is it?"

"In this village?" "But, what are they going to achieve bombing the police station?" "We need to ask them that, sir." "He is oozing intelligence!" "Check it out and solve it as soon as possible." "I'll push your transfer till then." "I will inform the higher ups." "Ok, sir..." "There is a God!" "I'll tonsure my children's head and sacrifice a goat." "Four of you search that side." "You follow me." "Head constable, come on." "He's going to expose us." "Hurry up." " We are coming." "What is it, Shanmugapandi?" "It is red..." "Do you know who it belongs to?" "That day, we came into the forest for..." "That is the terrorists' flag!" "They have planned their ambush here." "Now, watch this." "We must put it into a bag like this, or else our fingerprints will become evidence." "We are on the right track." "There's a chance we will get more evidence." "Let's proceed." "Heard that?" "Careful as you walk, there could be mines." "There won't even be a cracker here." "Stop..." "Is it a mine?" "A khaki button!" "They are not normal guys." "They are uniformed trained men." "They are parading close by." "We'll catch them." "Please keep this carefully too." "Before the problem aggravates we need to catch those terrorists." "If we tell the inspector and get a trained dog to sniff the evidence we can catch the culprits." "Let's leave." "What are you waiting for?" "There's no time to chat." "Let's go." "You can't find out all that from this evidence." "What are you saying?" "If we show the cloth and button to the sniffer dog Wilson..." "He will catch them from any nook of the forest and maul them." "What do you mean?" "There are no terrorists..." "What do you mean?" "There is so much evidence." "Come on, I will catch them." "There's no one to catch." "The flag is what I use to clean my bike." "It was the sub inspector and I who were in the forest that day." "We were scared that they would transfer us to Ramnad." "The men who I chased in the village that night?" "That was us too." "My knife?" "Were you the one who bombed the police station?" "Are you nuts?" "Would I plant a bomb and get caught in the explosion?" "Then, who did?" "Why don't we do something?" "We can get the sniffer dog Wilson to sniff the bomb site." "It will easily find the criminal." "It will shred him to pieces." "There's no need for that." "I was the one who placed the bomb." "You!" "Why did you do it?" "That was because..." "I have said what I have to say." "You do what you have to." "It has been three months since I got a placement in a government school." "But I didn't go." "I didn't go because of you." "Every time you came to see me, I would want to confess my feelings." "But watching your antics, I would get embarrassed and shy away." "Don't say anything." "It is my turn." "I love this village." "It'll be fantastic if you and I could settle down here." "Let's see." "Sorry, head constable..." "I didn't expect you to come there." "Let it be." "You have done such a fantastic thing." "Then, we are the terrorists, you are the bomber." "Let's maintain this lie." "We need to do something now." "We need to spread the word that there is a danger of terrorists being in the forest." "No one other than us must know the truth." "Let's go." "What is it?" "A gift..." "For what?" "We have... you know..." "What?" "We are in love with each other, aren't we?" "Love?" "Who told you that?" "What are you saying?" "You were the one who told me you were in love with me." "Me?" "In love with you?" "Must have been a dream..." "A dream?" "I am not in love with anyone." "Go and see a good doctor." "I saw both of you talk the other day." "Why are you confusing him?" "I want him to come every day and struggle to confess his love." "That is what I like." "Hey, Shanmugapandian..." "Gifts and chocolates..." "You are celebrating life..." "Why are you sad?" "Are the lovebirds having a problem?" "There's no love, where is the problem?" "What are you saying?" "She is saying I dreamed up the whole thing." "What?" "A dream?" "What are you saying?" "You bombed the place for this..." "This is dangerous." "You planted the bomb when no one was here..." "What if you had planted the bomb when we were around?" "You don't need this." "Forget her." "Only then will your stupid day dreaming stop." "Sir, mail..." "I'll go and get it." "What is it?" "A letter..." "Thanks." "It is addressed to the police station." "Read it first." "Our transfer has been cancelled." "We did it!" "They aren't closing down our police station." "We can continue here." "Yes, we can." "We aren't going to Ramnad." "What is it?" "Give me your hand." "What happened?" "You achieved in a day what we were trying to do for a month." "You are our hero!" "What's wrong with you?" "You are too tall." "Come on." "We were so worried this past month." "I feel like we have been saved from bad times." "Now I am relieved." "That's enough, God." "Put on the TV..." "Turn up the volume." "I am celebrating." "We haven't played a game for a long time." "What do we play?" "Cricket..." "The bat was destroyed in the blast." "Let's play caroms then." "The board broke into smithereens." "What is this?" " Chess?" "That is in the cupboard, safe and sound." "Bring it." "Let's play chess today." "Come on, don't be sad." "We'll play something today." "We are celebrating." "Is that your move?" "Take this." "A black for a white." "I need a brain-box like you when I play chess." "Let's bury the sub inspector today." "Let's see." "You are on my team." "Hey, guys!" "Come let's play" "No thanks." "You'll call us, and then lock us up later." "We aren't up to it." "That was just for fun." "There's no problem now." "Come on." "No way." "We won't come." "The IPL starts in two days." "You'll have to come here to watch it." "Don't forget the snacks when you come." "They are spooked." "You concentrate on this." "What colour are we?" "Brother, that light is broken." "How did it break?" "Hello, brother." "Hello, Murugan." "I was coming to see you." "I am here now." "That's good." "Come on." "Hope you'll finish the job as promised." "I will." "Annachi, give me my bag, the man has come." "Bag?" "Which bag?" "The money bag." "The money we collected to build a computer centre." "I didn't see the bag." "I left it on the sack, don't play games." "Is this the place to play games?" "This is my work place." "I know that." "When I left the bag, only you were there." "It must be inside, please check." "I told you I didn't see it, you must have left it somewhere else and forgotten." "Go look for it elsewhere." "Don't come into the store." "Murugan, be calm." "I'll handle this." "Don't you trust me?" "I told you I didn't take it." "You are searching me using an outsider?" "Please don't be angry." "It is the people's money." "People respect you here." "Please return the money." "I didn't take your money." "Will you please leave?" "You say you didn't take the money." "Why don't you let me check inside?" "Don't come in." "Annachi, you are making a mistake." "You will pay for this." "Check..." "No." "Cash." "I did what you told me to." "What is this?" "Whose money is this?" "The constable wanted me to steal from Annachi's shop." "That is why I stole it." "The other day you were upset about me not stealing." "I thought about it." "You didn't ask for my life, you only asked for a favour, that's why I did it." "I am happy now." "Hold this." "Come with me." "Head constable, come on." "Listen to me." "I didn't take the money." "Put it away." "The president just placed the bag and climbed up to change the light." "This happened in this short while?" "Give me the money." "Stop it." "What is it?" "Annachi has my money but says he does not." "Question him and get it back." "If not I will write a complaint and you file a case against him." "Why do we need to file a case?" "We'll find your money by tomorrow." "We are responsible for your money." "Think your money is safe with us." "If I don't get the money..." "Leave, brother..." "Disperse everyone." "Annachi, you too." "What you've done has led to this crisis." "Why is he saying this?" "Tell him the truth." "You were the one who asked me to steal." "Let it be." "Place the bag exactly where you found it." "What is this?" "You ask me to steal and then place it back." "I can't do it." "I will kill you... rascal..." "If you want to live here peacefully, do as we say." "Or else you'll be going into one jail after another and living a dog's life." "Take the money and go." "Return it to its place and carry on with your work." "We'll go there tomorrow and say the bag was right there." "And that they didn't look for it well enough." "We'll manage it." "Don't worry." "Someone has done it in the night." "It seems planned." "We shouldn't let it go." "The president would never do something like this." "I told you, the money's come." "We had so much respect for you." "How could you do this?" "You lost the money, blamed Annachi and then burnt his shop down." "You say I burnt the shop?" "You take the money, and to hide that crime you burn the shop and put the blame on me." "Fantastic!" "What are you saying?" "You did it and now you act innocent." "Speak with respect." "You've conspired to steal the village's money." "Why should we respect you?" "Who are you calling a thief?" "You are the thieves." "We made a 'nobody' the president and you speak with arrogance." "They've provoked a fight in this peaceful village." "I will kill you for burning my shop." "Thrash them and drive them out." "Kill him!" "The shop has been burnt down." "The money's burnt." "Come on." "Stop!" "What is this?" "Breaking tube lights and fighting like this!" "It looks bad." "You should have arrested him and questioned him yesterday." "He is the one who burnt down my shop." "I will make a complaint." "File a case against him." "He was the one who burnt it down." "I am the witness." "Did you see it?" "Yes." "I did." "I will vouch for it anywhere." "I saw Annachi steal the money." "File a case against him first." "Stop it." "What is this?" "Why is each one of you telling lies?" "Let's not book a case." "Why do we have a temple in our village?" "Once they make the vows, we'll call for a meeting." "All right..." "We have come to make a vow, can you prepare for that?" "Please wait for five minutes." "Why did you bring them here?" "Like Annachi didn't take the money, the president couldn't have started the fire." "After both of them take the vow, things will sort themselves out." "According to our tradition, once you make the promise, you must stop fighting." "No one must aggravate the problem." "Is that all right?" "Do you agree?" "There's oil spilt here." "Please take the cloth from top." "What is this?" "(Tamil porn magazines)" "Blasphemy..." "Who kept these in the temple?" "What's happening here?" "Why do they do this in the temple?" "This village will rot." "There seems a bigger problem." "Get up, let's go." "Oh, no!" "I forgot to take it away." "They have been at it." "They have been acting like angels, but have been devils in disguise." "Are all your prayers for this?" "I promise we don't know how this happened." "How is that?" "You are here 24/7." "How can you not know?" "Did you accept to do the temple work for this?" "You boys have done enough, leave the place." "Pack them off." "They mustn't touch anything here." "We promise on God we don't know anything." "You too?" "Where can we take priests to make them confess?" "Let's finish what we came for." "This is pointless." "I'll solve my own problem." "Come on." "We'll sort it out ourselves." "Even I can do that." "Why are you still here?" "Pack your things and leave." "What is the point in living with a bad name?" "I can't go on." "People here think we are scum of the earth." "Even our sisters fear us." "We cannot stay here." "We'll go away." "Can we be happy elsewhere?" "What do we do?" "Let's all die." "If we die, will things be all right?" "What wrong did we do?" "The biggest mistake we made was serving this village with loyalty." "No one believed us when we said we were innocent." "We never left the temple." "Even God didn't save us." "What do we do now?" "We need to show these people who we are!" "Go carefully..." "Ok." "I'll leave now" "Ok." "Go away." "Oh, no." "The teacher is day dreaming." "He's transferred his dreams to my head." "Who could have opened the door?" "Where's the knife?" "It's you?" "Is this how you enter your house every day?" "I thought terrorists had entered my house." "You were looking around frantically." "Didn't you see me stand here?" "What?" "You'll make it big." "Thanks..." "You continue being whatever you want to be." "I will say what I came to say!" "You have to fall in love with me immediately." "This isn't a dream, is it?" "You've transferred your dreams to me." "That's my biggest problem." "I can't take it anymore." "Start falling in love with me immediately" "You are unable to take one dream." "I have suffered it from my childhood." "What should I do?" "I'll fall in love with you." "What must we do now?" "Head constable..." "I am coming." "Who is that?" "What happened?" "Annachi stabbed the president." "Both the groups are clashing." "I tried to make peace, they broke my head." "They'll burn the village down." "I am going to the hospital, please hurry and stop them." "We have to kill Annachi today." "He did it when no one was around." "We'll have his head by dawn." "We'll place it at the president's feet." "We'll get him." "What happened?" "The president's men are plotting to kill Annachi." "You bring Annachi to the police station." "I'll be back after I see the president." "Go ahead, I'll take care." "Hurry..." "They appear as if they are going to war." "Blood?" "Why are you sitting here and not going to the hospital?" "He attacks like a coward, and you want me to go to the hospital?" "Please don't be angry..." "Come on then, shall we go and play around?" "At this time?" "Step aside." "Show me your hand." "In the clash that ensues today, it is ok if your father dies, and I lose my husband..." "But we must make that Annachi bleed." "Why are you hurting a child for that?" "You are a good man, aren't you?" "Why have you become like this?" "What's the point in me being good?" "I am not that good that I will be willing to lose my money and get stabbed for it!" "(Phone)" ""She's a rose bud that blossomed yesterday."" "We have caught Annachi." "You've caught him." "He's under my protection." "Is he in your custody?" "– Yes." "Thank God..." "Hang up." "I'll be there shortly" "Come soon." "They are glaring." "Two bus loads of armed police..." "There is no rioting here." "There's no need, sir..." "They are our people, sir." "They'll listen to us." "Do you want me to come immediately?" "I'll be there." "If I turn around they'll slash me." "Where is Annachi?" "He's sitting there." "Did they hit him?" "Or was he bitten by a dog?" "He looks terrible." "Don't switch on the lights." "All right..." "Why did you do that?" "The president is searching all over to kill you." "He is even refusing to go to the hospital." "Isn't he dead yet?" "Why are you getting angry?" "He burnt down my shop saying I stole his money and ruined my livelihood." "I'll be happy only if he dies." "I can save you only if I arrest you." "Admit to your crime." "That is better." "Lock the door from inside." "It's a pity they have made us file a report." "Take the key and lock it up in the cupboard." "Hey, who are you?" "Who is this?" "Hey, stop." "Who are you fellows?" "When did you come in?" "How did you get in?" "Turn on the lights." "Open the door." "Where is he?" "Drag him out." "Brother, go to the hospital first." "Don't interfere unnecessarily." "Stop making a scene here." "Please leave." "He has surrendered." "Please leave." "I will kill him and surrender as well." "I am asking you to leave the place." "Let go." "Let him in." "Your family is out there." "See what I do to them." "Come on..." "Leave..." "If you lay a finger on my children..." "I'll destroy you..." "Annachi, be quiet." "Look at him speak." "What do we do now?" "You take care of Annachi." "I am going into the village." "I won't let him go." "Where are you taking us at this time of the night?" "Follow me..." "It is all for your protection" "Look at him snore." "There was no trouble in the village." "I have safe guarded the place." "After a night at the school, I sent both the groups home just now." "Did you lock up both the groups in one place?" "There was a partition." "Oh, that's good..." "We'll take care of the police station." "You both have a bath and come back." "You take care of that man, I'll be back." "I've taken care of the whole village, can I not do this?" "Please leave." "What are they doing at the police station?" "It is my duty to protect you." "Why are you coming here to thank me?" "Go home." "We are coming from our homes." "There is nothing in our houses." "All our houses were robbed." "We would have remained at home." "You said you are protecting us and locked us up in the school." "When we went back home, they had stolen everything." "The president walked off in a huff." "The president went to the hospital last night." "He walked off in anger to go to the hospital?" "They have stolen everything." "Come on." "All of you write a complaint." "Everything's gone." "They have taken even my old bike." "Do you have the papers intact?" "You tell me." "I lost Rs 10,000." "Don't worry, we'll get it back." "What's your problem?" "I'll come home for lunch." "Leave now." "Even our house was robbed." "I thought she should come to the school for protection." "Stand in queue and file a complaint." "You're just the head constable by designation." "Good day, sir..." "Why is it so crowded?" "We not only had a riot last night, we also had thefts." "They've come to lodge complaints." "What are you saying?" "Who's the culprit?" "We don't know that." "We have to investigate." "Go bring Annachi." "Shall I go home and have a bath?" "Go and take a nap as well." "The judge will wait for you till then." "You stay here and take care of the robbery." "Come on." "Please come, Annachi." "It's come to the point where we have to hand over Annachi at court." "How did the whole village get robbed in a single day?" "Sir, we'll make enquiries." "Whatever!" "Hey..." "Stop..." "Go back..." "What are you boys doing here?" "What is it?" "Where were you last night?" "You suspect us of the stealing?" "We lived peacefully at the temple..." "They pushed us into this dilapidated place." "Are you now trying to put us in jail?" "Get on with it." "Why are you getting so angry?" "Sir, let them be..." "They are good boys." "They wouldn't have done this." "If you spot the thief, please inform us." "Where are you taking us at this time of the night?" "Follow me..." "It is all for your protection." "I was unable to sell everything." "Half of it remains." "This is for you." "And for the boss..." "All right..." "For the six of us..." "For the boss first..." "For the boss again..." "The people of Porpandhal Village..." "Loving elders, since there's been a spate of robberies in the village, please lock up your houses." "Please take care of your own belongings." "We will try to help you as much as possible." "Don't worry about the stolen items." "We will find them within the next 24 hours." "This is an announcement made by the Porpandhal Police." "You would never have seen a place like this." "You've been talking about this place ever since the wedding." "You're going to see for yourself." ""Banned Village"" "Careful..." "Come in..." "How are you?" "I am fine..." "Are you all right?" " Yes..." "You left immediately after the wedding." "I had some work to attend to." "Where is uncle?" "He was having a bath." "Please sit down, I'll make coffee." "See who's come." "I would have received you at the bus stop if you had informed me." "We came on the bike." "Oh, no." "Where is it now?" "It is outside." "Why?" "Oh, no." "It was right here." "They've stolen it." "It's a new bike." "Not yet registered." "They'll do it themselves." "Why have you brought her here wearing so much jewellery?" "I don't know how I am going to send you back safely." "They've got into the backyard." "What are you saying?" "They've come to get the jewellery." "We can't stay here even for a minute." "Let's somehow get to the police station." "You get me my sickle." "Wear your slippers." "Give it to me." "Be careful." "Hurry up..." "Careful..." ""What's happening, why is it happening?" "One does not understand."" "Come on!" "Let's go the other way."

"Why did you ask us to come here?" "Hey, stop it." "The collector is coming here regarding the President's award." "If we stay united till his visit is over, that'll be good for us."
