In pursuit of dreams, I run even today
My desires remain far, far away
In search of dreams we run on and on
Do we see them?
Do we perceive?
In pursuit of dreams, I run even today
My desires remain far, far away
In search of dreams we run on and on
Do we see them?
Do we perceive?
In pursuit of dreams, I run even today
My desires remain far, far away
In search of dreams we run on and on
Do we see them?
Do we perceive?

What is it, dear?
lchaya(hubby), Lucy speaking 5 minutes more and l am done
What are you up to?
l...er...am watching Shalom (Christian) channel on TV
By the way, l'll be back after shopping at the supermarket

No, in the police force
Deputy Superintendent of Police Benny Tharakan

Sir?!
Be quiet! So convenient coming in with evidence, like this
Non-bailable offence, understood?
Please don't betray me, sir l desperately need the money
Please sir l'll do anything you ask me to
Do have only movie CDs? lsn't there any other kind?
Other kind?
Don't you have adult movies?
Yes or no?

Reporter, Bharath Vision
Jesus!
My dear sister, don't get me into trouble
l've just got back into service After 2 suspensions and 2 meditations
Please, l'll do whatever you want me to
Sir, answer that call Must be from the TV channel
Hello?
Venu, that's my name
A well known camera man of a well known TV channel
l know you, sir l've met you
- So, further introductions not needed - Not at all
lf prime time news today decides to air...
...your antics with that chick what will be your opinion?
Aiyo! l no longer will exist Tell me sir, what should l do?
Rs 3 lakhs, in notes of 1000 Send it with that girl
Okay, sir
Okay
Why has no one taken this?
We don't want any lOUs, sir Just give us our salary
This is not an lOU Just a security
Look, only 2 minutes left Go and begin the news telecast
By then the money will be here
Money that's not come since 4 months do you think will come in half an hour?
On its way
Then l'll read the news after it arrives
Or you do it yourself, after all you were a lion in Bharath Vision, right?
Yes dude, l was indeed, a lion
When l started my own channel l became a cat
Okay, don't read, you pig l'll do it, give me that coat
No need to remove the coat l got the money
Here, Rs 3 lakhs
Did you see how we got the money?
Here's Rs 3 lakhs, take your dues lf anything's left, leave it there itself
Bro, l have to go read news Please keep my 40 aside
Brother, where's mine?
A Bharath Vision lD card? Are you back with that channel?
l went for an 'operation', dear My old card came of use, that's all
Stop your chatter Come with me
Were you going to explain all that happened, to them?
You can as well air it on news time! Let everybody here be aware!
Great! Remember the way you followed ethics so strictly?
When it didn't work, you quit Bharath Vision to start a new channel
As the head, you are resorting to 3rd rate tactics, to pay the salaries...
...and that too mimicking a decent guy, like Venu sir
Go and tell Venu everything! You can get married to my dead body
He'll kill me!
l've not made it a habit, right? This was only the first time
Sir?
What is it?
Minister Kunjumoideen will land at 1 :00 PM None of us will be there to coverthe event
Select some good channel and just reproduce their content
lsn't that what we do every time!
Hey! Also include an 'it seems' in every other sentence
What's that sir?
Like...the Minister is involved in the sex racket case 'it seems'
Or...there is a chance he'll resign 'it seems'
Like this, we include 'it seems' in all matters, we are not sure of
Understood?
- Yes, now l do - Then go
What a big media star you were Rs 1 .5 lakh salary and...
...post of chief operating officer What went wrong at Bharath vision?
Conceit! l have only myself to blame A kind of smugness, dying to be pricked!
Oh Lord! lt's Venu!
Would he have somehow come to know what l did?
Aiyo! Would Benny Tharakan have talked to him, about it?
Will the Town Hall be free tomorrow?
Why?
To keep my dead body for public viewing
Hello? What's up dude?
ls it? He doesn't know!
Aren't you ashamed to go cover a silly 'lathi charge'?
Oh, you call itjust time pass, eh? Definitely not! You are itching for kudos!
Returning from Delhi after 5 years just a cheap trick to say you are back
Ow! He's swearing!!
He can't be idle even for a day without taking up some work
Probably needs the money
He?
The money he earns for each assignment of Reuters and CNN...
...no camera man would get even after 3 or 4 years of toil
When sensitive issues crop up channels in Delhi bid for his services
4 lnternational awards including the Rory Peck Award
This is not for money Just to show off, that's all!
For which channel could it be?
Certainly not, for Bharath Vision
Look here Suraj Renuka Ma'am has come
lf you confront her, you'll need to look out for another job
Her attitude is 'Just take a leap if you cannot'
l will take it up, not with her but with CEO Vijayakumar sir
She separated me and my wife allotting different shifts without a word to us
My shift is from 6:00 AM to 6:00 PM and hers, from 6:00 PM to 6:00 AM
l have been gazing at stars the whole of last month
- Be quiet, dude - Get lost, buddy
When she joined as junior reporter l was already here, as sub-editor
Now she claims to be executive editor!
Arun, come here
On the run down, first item should be Minister Kunjumoideen and sex racket
The women's activist Sharada and the retired old DySP Ramarajan
l want both of them on phone connected to me, right time
lf you come up with stories like unable to connect, and so on, l'll blast you!
- Revathi? - Ma'am
Greetings, I am Renuka The news, headIines
Minister Kunjumoideen has aIso been impIicated in Vadakara sex racket case...
...says retired DySPRamarajan
In Kuttikanam adivasi zone, Land mafia faked 420 documents
The news in detaiI
Minister Kunjumoideen's part in the case is now a topic of controversy
The girI who'd been harassed had named the minister too in her originaI statement
This cIaim by DySP Ramarajan, the officer who was investigating the case then...
...has sparked off these fresh controversies
Arun, didn't you get connection?
l am trying, but not getting through
You'll get it from me if you don't get it, right now
Get lost from here if you can't, dude!
The minister who was in Delhi since the Iast 4 days, wiII be here...
...in Nedumbashery airport by afternoon...is the latest report
Sir may I?
Yes
What's it, dude?
l have a complaint
You or your wife?
So this game was with your approval, eh?
Dude, I'll know even if a leaf moves in this place
Sir, it's been a month since anything moved at all!
Sorry, she takes the decisions
She can, but she'll have to bear my mother's curse
What's your mother's role in this?
Mother wants to die, only after she sees her grand child
That's being greedy, isn't it? Didn't she get to see you, as a baby?
- Look here sir - lf you want to change shifts, go ask her
ls she Goddess of Chottanikkara to bow and beg favors from?
Go and ask her directly, useless!
Why use me to test your sharp tongue?
- Sir, can you help? - No!
Oh, there she is! The she-devil!
We don't pay a salary for couples to coochy-coo during work
There's no question of changing the shift time
May be, on humanitarian considerations...?
l don't see such considerations when you force TAM rating on me
Do you think l am a machine?
l've lost out an entire life! Don't forget that!
Hello?
Is it?
Did you see? No, I will come
Sir
The minister is in the guest house, women activists and party members too
We can expect something hot You take over the news, I'll come 'live'
Did you see that enthusiasm? Focus channel got Venu to shoot for them
You mean Reuter's Venu?
Here?
He's come from Delhi and is here since a week, to testify on some old case
Must have accepted this job having free time on his hands
Oh Lord! In today's lathi charge once, just one beating...
...may this queen of Jhansi receive on her head, please God!
- What's it, dude? - Nothing, sir
- Preetha, did you see Venu sir? - ls Reuters Venu covering this?
- Why is he here, for this lifeless story? - Our Vice President requested him, come
Where the heck is this man?!
Must be hanging around somewhere
The Minister will soon be here
Nothing will happen till l get out of here
We cannot be too sure, sir
Your own party members will stir up problems
That's also part of politics Creating and solving problems
You guys need your guns and lathis l need to use my tongue, just watch
Don't get excited
Stop your slogans
Stop! Stop, I say
Stop, l say Don't you understand?
l have only respect for the women folk of this land
Listen to what I have to say...
...after which you can shout dissent or block my way! Please!
Please...please...please!
Okay, stop Let him say his piece
Don't bother asking me I will tell you everything
All this hullaballoo is simply because of the statement of a retd DySP, 6 years later
Let the police investigate I am prepared to co operate
Do you want me to step down during the period of investigation?
Let my party or chief minister demand I am prepared for that also
To counter a false accusation What more should l do?
How is it?
Enough?
Mohammed, what is the schedule for this evening?
Renu, don't try to barge in He subdued everyone with just 4 sentences
Don't think you can play around with this news, the whole day today
Chey! l came because l heard Venu was covering this for Focus TV
You can expect fireworks when he's around
Move aside all of you
Move!
See you later
Move
Come on finish off all these sons of guns!!!
Charge!
Get lost you!
Start the car
See that shoe and that bare foot
- Shoot both, dude! - Okay
Da!
You are totally useless Get lost, you...!
Sorry, ma'am
Venu sir?
There won't be any more further issues, will there?
What?
l mean the other one?
Did he see me throwing my shoe?
Well, if he did, let him!
- Here, go and serve it - Thank you, sir
TaIking diplomatically and calmly the event passed off uneventfuIIy
But someone threw a shoe at him and party members turned vioIent
Chey! Who could it be?
Did you see the rhythm in those shots?
Oh!
One second, turning on a single leg a180degree pan, a shot with amazing impact!
Wouldn't you have got it using both legs for 2 seconds?
Sure you will
But it can be shown only in your cheap, crappy, sub standard channel
All good channels will cut them, edit them
Whatever l shoot, will not give them a chance to edit
- Oh! For sure - Look there, my boy
Chey! They chopped the scenes, those vagabonds!
Smart boys don't need an excuse to edit
Yes, Venu here
I came, created an issue and shot those scenes for you
Now, using my footage, you are teaching your boys editing, eh?
Rascals! With no sense about rules of continuity!
What? Sorry?
You can stuff your sorry under your leg...arms...
...I'll take it when l need it!
What is it, dude? Giggling away to glory,eh?
Twin screen play writers What the heck do you know?
Venu, they are my friends They have 5 super hit films to their credit
They've come here for my sake To discuss a program for my NBI Channel
lf you have anything to say direct it at me, not them
I will tell this not only to you, but to them also
I didn't jump up from the middle of my dinner, to wield a camera
As a gold medalist from film institute I refused to step into the film world...why?
My ambition was to shoot visuals that were authentic, not manipulated
Understood?
Humph! Cinema my foot!
Looks like, a gas bag sprouted hands and legs!
Like army stories narrated by tea shop owners with big moustaches
Sure! Army stories indeed
Kargil war! Who covered it for the Defense Ministry?
Him
The terrorist attack at the Taj hotel, Mumbai
Who covered the commando operation for CNN channel?
Was it Azhagappan?
Not azhag-appan Your appan (dad)!
Very good
Oh, it was you, sir?
ls he in?
Sure, come in
Venu, look who's here
Hey, Somarajan sir?
When l called Rishi said you were here
Don't worry, I won't stay for long and trouble you
So my perjury, led to something good
Yes, l got the fax today My lPS is confirmed
lt was only for you l've surfaced here after 5 years
Just to change my earlier statement
Thanks
Thank you
When l packed up and left l swore l wouldn't return
But my return has resulted in something good!
Don't you know him?
Superintendent of Police Somarajan sir of Special branch
- Was suspended for a brief period - Along with a criminal case
He was the defendant and I was the petitioner

You can go after it begins
You arejust harassing me

Didn't I tell you that you can't meet her?
Why not?
Not possible, that's all

Renuka, junior reporter of Bharath vision
A beginner's enthusiasm

You fool! Aren't lady-police assigned to deal with women?
Why do you interfere?

How are you? Are you in pain?
Sure, l'm covered by insurance
He asked, if you are in pain

Pain, yes it is paining This thing blocks and l'm unable to hear
Removing that is not going to help He'll never be able to hear again
l hope there is nothing seriously wrong, doctor
Ear drum is totally damaged He'll have to use a hearing aid
Explain it to him gently
Okay?
Look here, just take it easy
What?
Don't get agitated You'll be a little upset on hearing this
But how can l tell you this, in any other way...?
Doctorjust said...

With broken words, it is cancer lts blood cancer, brother...
Tell me whatever it is you dumb fellow!
l'm not dumb You are the one now, deaf
Your ear is gone forever, dude
Hereafter, we must fix that thingy A hearing aid, that's what l meant
So, this is a goner!
Once, the artist Van Gogh chopped his ear off, for his lady love
My dear girl, l've just lost it for you without love or any such moonshine
Be grateful, okay? Gratitude
- That thing which you said... - Gratitude?
No, this love
lt can happen even now and everything will fall in place
- Will that happen? - lt's already too late
- Then go get a taxi - Okay
Get lost, dude and stop weaving stories
Venu!
My God! You should have seen them after that incident
lt wasn't love, they just took off on a high!

Didn't you say we have something exclusive?
Yes, there is no one else here Only 2 of us, exclusive literally, come

Dishonorable ones, of course!
Sure! Go climb a wall!
Oh! That!
No! Please no...not before marriage

Then?
Why that disappointed expression, when l said that?
Aiyada! Disappointment!
Do you know to cook?
- Sure, to an extent - Okay
- Where's the kitchen? - Over there
What do you prefer? Tea or coffee?
Before that, by the way have you heard my song?
Song?
Music track, karaoke
ln our future lives, very frequently we have to face 2 gigantic issues
Your cooking and my music!
Let's begin our interaction from that point
As rays of the fading evening sun, Iay sprawIed on the shores unrestrained
Swinging your littIe tender arms, dear On a littIe boat you rowed, my baby dear
Tear drops never fell but brimmed Eyes that glistened with tears unshed
Memories, like a wick of lamp burning not feeling the heat of the flame brightening
Oh, why did you Ieave me and go My sweet littIe chirpy red sparrow
I wait on these shores for you on and on My desires like roots spread far and yon
As rays of the fading evening sun, Iay sprawled on the shores unshackled
Swinging your tender littIe arms, dear in a boat you rowed away, my baby dear
As the wheels of time and age Turned around on earth's heritage
As flowering trees and young LaureI grew and changed beyond recaII
As before my eyes this littIe stream faded out of sight, never to be seen
I turned into a golden sand boat that didn't have water to go afIoat
lAs rays of the fading evening sun, lay sprawled on the shores uncontrolled
Swinging your tender little arms, dear in a boat you rowed away, my baby dear
Adorned in anklets on feet so pretty Bangles aplenty on hands so dainty
A garland, you once gave me with blossoms of Mimusop's Elengi
Festivities, dance of warfares Long over are the temple fairs
A sentinel I stand in a tempIe forsaken Like a burnt out black stone lamp alone
As rays of the fading evening sun, Lay sprawled on the shores unrestrained
Swinging your tender little arms, dear in a boat you rowed away, my baby dear
As rays of fading evening sun, sprawIed upon the shores unrestrained
Swinging your tender little arms, dear in a boat you rowed away, my baby dear
As rays of fading evening sun, Iay sprawIed upon the shores unrestrained
ISwinging your tender IittIe arms, dear in a boat you rowed away, my baby dear
Go climb the wall!
Cruel fellow!
And then?
Why mood off, sir? A kind of sadness?
He's sad that he can't have a baby
Haven't you heard? Sorrow of being childless
What do the doctors say?
No use! No use at all!
How can a baby be born when we didn't have a chance?
Cruel she-devil Witch, hellcat!
Cheater!
Da! You don't say anything
l will, she cheated me also l will tell you, the rest of the story
lt was when, l quit Bharath Vision and started my own channel, the NBI
lt was 2 or 3 days before its launch
The day before these lovers tired after love making...
...decided to get married at the registry office
Well known NRI businessman and MaIayaIee Rajan Kartha nominated...
...as Rajya Sabha member from Kerala as decided by Democratic party central powers
State party president and possibIy future Chief Minister, Bharathan Pillai...
...overcoming objections of other parties in KeraIa...
...vouched for Rajan Kartha's nomination
When KeraIa does not have a singIe candidate or MP...
Rishi, this is a good omen
Which one?
Our channel is taking off, at a time when the situation is heating up with news
Our channel won't have any dearth for news
That's true, but actually it's not the way you think it is, Jose'aettan
From today, all channels will focus on Rajan Kartha and Bharathan Pillai
But we will wake up in 2 days with an exclusive story that'll divert viewers
All other channels are baffled
What's the story?
4 exclusive stories are ready
We'll just decide what to air We have 2 more days, right?
There is 1 which could be most exclusive, we can't ignore that
Venu!
Ah! Has the bridegroom arrived?
Don't you know him? Venu
Who doesn't?
- Kelvin Joseph's partner - l know him
Don't splurge all your money on him although he may convince you
Come
We are getting married tomorrow
But not inviting you, it's a registered marriage
Rishi did mention it, congrats!
Thanks
Give it to me
Dude, it's only a signature tomorrow Don't take way Renu, for another month
She is my sub-editor
Come down to earth dude, just beginning and thinks he's already a channel bigwig
Go, go
Dad wanted a proper wedding
Find someone else then, to stand well decorated and smiling...shall we?
l just mentioned dad's wish
Let's find someone for dad then Will your mom allow it?
God! What a thorny tree
Am l a thorny tree?
Am l not a flower, hmmm?
Hey! Can't you wait till tomorrow?
l've reached limits of my patience, dude!
Rishi come here, l'm reiterating what l've always said
l'm not investing, to strut around like a channel owner, it's only for business
l have no allegiance to any particular religion or party
Ratings, commercial value of news, that's all
Also, l'm giving you the freedom you've always wanted
Correct! Even otherwise who are we indebted to?
A man comes home, freshens up waits for his kids to sleep, views TV...
...for 2 hours, the programs and news for which we have toiled and sweated
Ask him to get lost, l say!
Sheer attitude problem Let's see you like this always, okay?
Sure, if this attitude shifts...
...l swear l'll work for you, for your channel, for what you pay!
Renu, its Manilal here
A shocking exclusive! l got this information, just now
Okay, Mani
Venu, something important, come
Rishi! Can your channel go on air today, tonight?
We are on to an exclusive which nobody may get
Yes or no?
Yes of course!
Listen, we are going on air tonight itself, get everything set
The promos have to start by today evening, 6:00 PM
NBI will be launched tonight at 10:00 with news, that's going to shock Kerala
Promos have to start on internet and FM Radio
Rishi, seeing the promos, people will wait for the shocking news...
...but what if the info is wrong?
We already have 4 other stories that will shock, we'll start with any of them
Forward this now itself to play up
Okay
What is that?
5m, waterproof USB wire camera Usually used in surgical procedures
lt will enter any body organ or even the intestines, to shoot
But why, for our purpose?
62 degree wide vision view
AV details will be, clear as crystal, high resolution
Have you prepared your introduction lines?
Let's shoot it here in the vehicle itself
Do we have to?
lt must be your face before the visuals You won't get any benefit otherwise
Okay
Ready, rolling
In India, peopIe worm into political and Iaw making infrastructures of this country...
...out of sheer power of money, one such shocking scene, we invite you to witness
Candidate for Rajya Sabha, Rajan Kartha and Bharatha pillai Democratic party president...
...caught in the act with crores of money changing hands, watch it!
I hope we get to see all what was just said
- Camera - Sir
Here, take it
- Pan rights - Okay, sir
- Okay sir? - Okay, fine
Sir, this has come back after repair Where shall we put it?
lt was taken from the office room Keep it back there
Why does he still have this old fridge? Can't he buy a new one?
That's our Bharathan Pillai sir Such humility and modesty
Varghese, l am feeling very tired Shall we meet tomorrow?
Okay, sir
Okay, leader
Okay, we are leaving
Okay, everything as we'd already planned
He is Kartha sir
Come, come
- Greetings - Greetings
- Varghese, don't allow anyone in
I didn't have much hope till the decision was made
Party members protested so vehemently
They raise a hue and cry only here, none of it reaches Delhi
Isn't that why I extended my hand, when you asked?
Now, where is that stuff which must reach my hand?
Oh that, yes! That is ready
True, it's the key to your fridge
l took it by telling Varghese, it needed repair
The entire amount you've asked is here, count it
This will cover only the Rajya sabha seat
The crown of a central minister is on its way, don't forget that
I shall continue remembering it like this, all the time, isn't that enough?
Sure
Sir is returning
Get the camera
Renu, take it
Come
Where? What is it?
Sign off, it should be with Pillai's house as a back drop
This is Renuka, with cameraman Venu from Bharathan PiIIai's residence
Come
Police!
Don't drive off immediately!
Go straight ahead, there is a round about, take a right and ask there
Now take off!
Hey! Come here
Who are you?
Why are you prowling around here?
Nothing
Who was in that vehicle?
They asked for directions and I told them
Hello?
Chief lnspector, Anthony
What is it? You wanted to see me?
l am right in front of your house
We've caught a man who looks suspicious
Looks like a journalist
What? A journalist?
Reuters, BBC Delhi based
Not any local channel eh? What were you planning?
Look sir, this is wrongful confinement How can you hold me like a criminal?
l am a media person with a national rating
Okay! How many policemen know what Reuters means in our town?
Please wait outside Venu, sit please
No thanks
What was the information?
What did you see and shoot?
Open your mouth and tell me, you...!
Hey, be quiet!
What you've guessed was the information we got
Later, we realized it was false
How?
Kartha sir came in with nothing in his hand
He did not carry any briefcase or bag which could contain money
- Sir - What is it?
Police chased and caught the van We've got a wireless message
And?
The van belongs to NBI, a new channel
lt is all set to launch tonight
Flash news is appearing on TV right now Nothing was found from the vehicle
Only the driver was there So the van was allowed to go

Will their news shock us? Come on, tell us

Varghese, get an ambulance ready So as to reach here, in just 2 minutes
Hello? Yes, Bharathan Pillai
Who was it?

Now it is switched off
Greetings, good evening NBI, News Bureau of lndia
No need for introductions for news, that's true and authentic
ln the same way NBI without introductions
From this minute, for you, from today
As a brand new channel, naturally we come to you, with exclusive news
Confessions, we have seen them many times on channel screens
But here is a secret which will shock Kerala, truth brought by a priest
ln 2003 there was a sensational...
Sorry Venu Sorry for the inconvenience
Varghese, drop him wherever he needs to go
Sorry
What the heck did you build up to?
Was it only me? Who asked for an ambulance?
lf the news was true we had to shift stuff from here
What will l do with that cash? That was the reason
Who is this priest? Who knows?
A sinner who is not penitent deserves to be punished
Rishi
What happened?
Where is Renu?
You returned together, didn't you?
We waited for you till the last minute When you didn't come, we aired another story
Tell me what happened?
l sent her off at 9:00 PM With the footage we shot
And then?
Do you think she could be hurt?
No! Don't panic! Nothing will happen to her
Why don't we air this issue now itself?
Rishi look!
Candidate for Rajya Sabha, Rajan Kartha and Bharathan pillai Democratic party president...
...caught in the act with crores of money changing hands, watch it!
How can your program on confessions have any effect...
...when such explosive news is being aired?
This channel was a dead baby even before it was born
Even a launch program couldn't be done confidentially...
...and l've wasted my money Enough, just wind up now
This is Renuka, with cameraman Venu from Bharathan PiIIai's residence
- Sir - Where did you drop her?
Sir, at the over-bridge Another car came and she got into it
Let's go to Bharath Vision
Move man
You are finished!!!
You are no more!
Over! l'll just think you died after turning insane!
Hello?
Venu, you dragged and threw me down from a very great height
l called to let you know my happiness
A deep wound and the sharp pain When it heals, only l'll feel it
But be sure, you also will know it
Democratic party after its meeting...
...decides to strip Bharathan PiIIai's presidentiaI position
They have aIso requested vigiIance...
...to start investigations against Kartha and Bharathan PiIIai
Oh that was a terrible thing to do!
Doesn't matter Forgiven
lf l was 1 day late, l would've had to stand in a queue at the family court
l've forgiven!
l will not forgive! She ruined my NBI
He wasn't referring to you
Bharathan Pillai would have been a Chief Ministertoday
Today he's just a state committee member
The rotten corpse!
lts 5 years since we heard anything about NRl, Rajan Kartha
- Da! - What is it, da?
They are all his people Send them away, quickly
l'm hungry, where's your bike?
Da?
Did you pay salary to your staff?
- Yes l did - How did you manage?
Did you get a windfall?
You refused to loan me So l sold you
How?
We got incriminating footage of that DySP Benny
Some youngster shot it at some resort
l showed him the footage and threatened him, mimicking you
Rs 3 lakhs
Stop!
- Stop! - Don't punch me
Stop the bike! Aiyo!
l'll kill you
Can't l use your name a bit?
This has a different name You want to see...?
Will an action do?
- Have you gone away? - l am here
l will use you also
Don't do that l am not like that
What's happening?
Police!
Why are you dancing in the middle of the night?
We were just exercising
Exercise? Middle of the night? Put them both in the jeep
Wait!
l will come by myself
Do l have to repeat it to you?
You'll face consequences if you lay your hands on me
Tomorrow, all channels will carry your stupid face, as its cover story
Beware! You are playing games with Reuters stinger Venu, got it?
You may be big people, but when you play such public games, what shall we do?
Oh, so what shall we do?
Sir?
This is his usual drama
Any time police catch him or gets into any other issue...
...he will immediately say that he's big-wig of a channel
He's nothing of that sort Does video coverage, of weddings
Da!
l will come
Walk quickly, man!
Come in
Move aside!
Francis! Get their bikes to the police station
Put in a liter of petrol also, okay?
Get up, l say
Get up
What's happening?
This man is a nuisance
He brought the bench from the veranda to sleep here
Lock me up Or, l will sleep here
l always sleep at ten after a glass of milk
Go
This is sheer menace and l already wrote out the FlR!
lf you want to get out get someone to bail you
We don't have anyone, sir We are orphans
We are from the public orphanage
Sir?
Please switch on that fan
Do you hear him? Switch on the fan
Who is it, middle of the night?!
lf it is anyone important ask him to call tomorrow, l'm off to sleep
Hello, who is it?
lsn't this the number of Venu stinger cameraman, of Reuters?
Who is it, sir? ls it from the orphanage?
Hello?
l am advocate, Manilal What is the case?
Counsel, it was a mistake Please ask him to overlook this
My police pal, see what happens when you confront me, at midnight?
- Did you see now? - Heard now?
Thanks a lot
Venu?
l've been trying you from last evening but couldn't get through
Who are you?
l am advocate, Manilal l have something to tell you
What is it?
lt's about an exclusive
However important it is l'll see you tomorrow...
...when l am fresh Come let's go!
So tell me, what is this exclusive, all about?
An exclusive like this won't ever occur in the history of news channels again
A story that has to be shot risking life
l've risked my life many times Forget that, come to the point
l will, but before that, l want a firm affirmation from you
This exclusive info was got from a particular channel
The story has to be covered, only for them
Their reporter will accompany you Do you have any objections?
Once l disclose information You can't go back on your word
Mr lawyer, l do follow certain ethics lf l give my word, it is forever
So you agree?
Agreed
But l'll be the one to decide what to do and how to do it
Okay, agreed
Now l come to the actual point What you have to cover, is a murder
The murder planned, is on behalf of a well known politician of Kerala
Sorry! l cannot do this
Hey! Venu! Please!
A life is more important than a piece of news
Since we have info, we have to try and save him
lt may lessen the news value, but ratings mustn't depend on blood spilt
Venu, let me explain
lt's not my urge to make money by 'live' coverage of a man's death
He can't be saved by anyone even if it's reported to the police
Because, Bharathan Pillai still dictates, even though, he's not yet Chief Minister
- Bharathan Pillai? - Yes
This murder will take place on his behalf
We can't prevent it, can't we at least make sure the culprits don't escape?
Okay, so who is the victim?
A man in Bharathan Pillai's group We don't know who or what...
What rubbish is this?
l can only assure you this information is 100% genuine
Tell me the place, time and date and who is the reporter, coming with me
Renu?
This woman?!
Find someone else! Lawyer, drop me back!
Venu, listen to me You can't go, you agreed...
...l disclosed info because you claimed to have ethics
Did you tell me beforehand this useless creature was coming?
You only said some reporter
Didn't l warn you to disclose info only aftertelling him everything, Chey!
Think it's not Renuka, but a stranger X or Y, with a professional approach
l am totally professional! Such a risky job, l need someone who gels with me
Petty personal issues mustn't come in the way...
...of this exclusive with such strong social impact
We don't have any option, but Renuka
Venu, you can insist on whatever conditions you want
Please
Please Venu!
Okay
These are my conditions l'll be the sole decision maker
Reporter X or Y is not allowed to make any suggestions
Sure
A DSNG van, without any crew must be at my disposal
Okay
Visuals l 'UP' has to be aired, unedited With no interference in it, whatsoever
Agreed
My remuneration alone, is Rs 10 lakh
- Here, it's got more than what you've asked - Let it wait, there are more conditions
Visuals must accompany a scrolling script...
'Visuals exclusively covered by cameraman Venu'
No intro or sign out by the reporter
Agreed
You have 12 hours to plan and prepare, Renu knows the details
Okay
The baton has now shifted into your hands
Venu...Renu? Shake hands on this
Not necessary!
What's this? You'll be working together hereafter
Be professional
Venu please?
Keep the cash in the car
You have neither an intro nor sign off Why the hell are you tagging along?
Suppose you run away with the footage as a revenge for the old grouse?
There is only 1 creature on earth who'd do such things, and that's you!
l forgot to tell you, DSNG receives poor signal at the crime spot
Even if it did, we cannot go there with the van, right?
Oh, you are right
Okay, now both of you can chart out a plan
Not 'both' of us Only me!
- Shall l suggest something? - No!
- Listen first - Not necessary
Don't get into a fervor and try to save the victim
You must be so blood thirsty! Cruel she-devil!
Murder will occur even if we interfere and finally we'll become defendants
- Are you sure? - Very sure
Then l will surely interfere, l don't care if l'm accused, you'll also go to jail
Come on, be serious
You want me to be serious? Really?
lf l did, you'll be lying in ICU, very serious
There are arrears in plenty against you
No need to contribute, be quiet and just allow me to do my stuff
To hell with you!
Lean back and sit without touching me, especially your bust!
You dirty...chi!!!
Turn left
This is the club house
Here? ln such an open area?
Disputed property
Government acquired 15 years ago, not even a watchman will be here
What time is this crime scheduled for?
Between 8:00 and 9:00 PM
ls it a favorable time? Like they fix in weddings?
Come here
Are you scared to be alone? l am going up there
A little
Then wait right here
After some time, yourfear will increase
lf you make a sound, l'll kill you with one blow!
Hey!
What is it?
A rat!
Rat?! l'll stuff cloth down your throat! Not a sound from you!
Don't scare me, you she-devil!!!
How did you come up?
l too learnt martial art Kalari, for 6-7 years
Look...a car
Let me go, don't kill me l begged forgiveness at his feet
Take me to him
You are great man Sir will come to meet you here
Don't hurt me, please Let me go
Leave me
Let me go
Don't harm me
Leave me, aiyo!
Don't harm me, sir Didn't l confess everything?
Will your confessions give me back, all what l lost?
My image, position, the days l spent idle at home, since last 5 years
Suguna, to you, wasn't it just an itch on your tongue?
When you betrayed us to the channel you knew very well...
...it would cost me and Kartha our political careers
Let me at least have the joy of deciding your end
Sir, don't kill me
Take him away and hang him
Hello, Venu?
Ready?
l am going to upload the footage of the visuals
You have to 'UP' it with the scrolling script and your logo
Okay
When you switch on, l'll go watch TV in some place, any editing, remember...?!
Okay Venu, there won't be any interference from us
Yes! Venu's footage will come now UP the scrolling script along with it, okay?
Get ready with camera DSNG crew and everything
We've got to be in front of Bharathan Pillai's house
l am going to that restaurant to watch TV
l want to see if they have messed with my visuals
Be right here, till l get back
A true and shocking incident that occurred a few moments ago
Prompted us to air this speciaI buIIetin BrutaI visuaIs we have never seen before
Democratic party Ieader Bharathan PiIIai's CrueI revenge against party member Sugunan
Don't harm me, sir Didn't I confess to everything?
My image, position, the days I spent idIe at home since Iast 5 years
Suguna, wasn't it to you just an itch on your tongue?
Don't kiII me
Take him away and hang him
From the pIace of incident this is Renuka with camera man, Venu
Get down the way you came up
Sure, give me the bag l will throw it down
From the pIace of incident this is Renuka with cameraman, Venu
You...!
lsn't it them? The camera man and reporter?
Sir, this is really amazing Did the 2 of you really shoot this?
- ls his body still hanging there? - May be, let the police enquire
- They must have shot it, hiding - No dude, he shot it right from the front
They wouldn't be alive if they'd been caught by those thugs
Sir, we are on our way to Bharathan Pillai's house
lf Pillai resists arrest we'll have to use force
We've sent our forces to the club house
Once the body is traced and identified we'll immediately go in and arrest, sir
Look! Bharathan Pillai's house Police have come to arrest him
After watching visuaIs of Bharath Vision's exposure
You are seeing here the frenzy of peopIe
We also know only what was shown on TV
Police have already gone to the place of the incident
Let us trace the body first after that we'll take necessary steps
Will there be any arrests, sir?
We cannot say, at this juncture We'll let you know by and by
Move!
Arrest the murderer
Stop!
What do you want? Pelt stones till l die?
Go ahead Do it, kill me
No need for police and courts You have the right to punish me
Before that, you have to know certain truths
You don't have to say any darn thing!
We saw everything on TV
Just answer the police when they question you
Varghese!
Look! There's the dead man!
Whatever l have to say is here, for you to see, 'alive'
lt was him, it seems who l killed and then hanged
What more can l say?! Ask him whatever you want
Mr Suguna, what do you have to say?
l don't know anything, l too saw it on TV, Pillai sir will tell you the rest
Mr Pillai, what do you have to say?
l don't understand why that girl and cameraman have enmity to me
l also have no idea how they created such visuals
l am not a technical expert
You remember, 5 years ago the same team hunted and...
...pinned Kartha and me down with a bribe charge, using visuals
l couldn't prove anything then
Break and destroy Bharath Vision! Come, dude!
Damn his hidden camera!!
Wait there! You can't go after creating controversies
Go, get into the van without gaping, you idiot
Don't let them go
Come on, climb
Abu! Van!
Move
Burn it up!
Turn right, we'll go to Bharath Vision
Turn right lt's saferthere
What?
Turn right We'll go to the studio
Don't utter a word What do we do at the studio?
Move aside
Where is he? Come
l don't know what happened The original footage...
Enough! Stop
- l was just talking to the home secretary - Later
- Let me discuss this with my legal advisor - We'll get him to the police station, come
Move aside!
Get down!
Today, some shocking visuaIs of a brutaI murder that stunned...
...the conscience of KeraIa were aired by Bharath Vision
But soon after that, within minutes the man who was claimed to be killed...
- l am Venu - Where are you?
-Are you in your apartment? - No, at the studio
l am right beneath your apartment
Right below my apartment?!
Don't you dare go there! l'll kill the 2 of you
You went to favor Bharath Vision Exclusive it seems!
Go, take her also along l can't do anything for you
Tell me where the keys are, vagabond!
Only you can go in, not her
l'll decide that, now tell me where is the key, useless!
On the window sill
Don't open the door to anyone, l'll be ruined if anyone knows you are in there
Look, you don't broadcast this, okay? l'll kill you, if you do!
Get inside, you...!
Oh Lord, am l fated to die without a drop to drink?
Protestors from Bharathan PiIIai's house were uncontrollable by the time...
...they reached the Bharath Vision studios
PoIice arrived and stopped them whiIe breaking the glass and trying to barge in...
...and on charges of telecasting false news
...they arrested CEO and 1 of the directors, Vijaykumar
His granny's information! He has to be kicked, the pig!
lt was I who got the information Not Vijaykumar, sir
What?
lt was l who was informed
Tell me, who gave the info to you
Come on tell me
Go on
lt was the lawyer, Manilal
So he was the one who betrayed, eh?
He is innocent l know very well
Not innocent (actor) ldavela Babu (actor)
How can you trust him? ls he God, or your dad?
He's my cousin, all exclusive info l've covered, were based on his tip-offs
His info was always true including the bribe case
Manilal will not betray
Pillai deserves a bouquet
He retrieved all he'd lost on a single night At the same time, made us go into hiding
Yes, now l can hear
Mr Bharathan Pillai, the incident at the cIub house being proved faIse...
...are you now claiming that the bribe case charged on you
...and Kartha 5 years back was totally baseIess?
Didn't the truth come out by itself?
Now let the central committee decide what l should do
l've suffered for 5 years, in spite of not having committed a single crime
The people and party members who rejected me then, are now with me
l'm sure the central committee will realize this
Thank you
High hopes! l didn't hang that fellow to get an award for good behavior
Let them bring it back All what they took away
The 2 of them are in a pathetic state Must be hiding, not knowing what to do
Renuka along with camera man Venu
Dude, this is simple straight math
Anyone with an ounce of brains can decipher this move, let alone Venu
The credibility he'd destroyed l managed to get back
Now to ruin their trust and careers l'm taking the same route, a silent chase
Sir, but isn't there a risk? Will he not come after you again?
Of course he will But not immediately, Varghese
They will not get out until this noise dies down
l too gain time that way, because by then...
...l'll occupy the chief minister's chair
Let them come after that
- Here, use onions - l don't want your onions
Don't show your craving
- l never asked - l won't give, even if you ask
Shhhh!
Someone's knocking
Some one's outside
Sure, there is someone
Greedy devil!
Thanks
Ask them to come in
Burn it all up, dude!
Sir, this is Venu's l-Pad All the visuals are in this
So we've got all the original footage
- Yes sir - Good!
Settle their accounts
Having been proved that the visuaIs were faIse...
PoIice have charged a case against Venu and Renuka
And they are on the Iookout to find them The sooner they are...
Switch it off, l say!
Says the city poIice commissioner
What do we do now?
Think! lf you get a brainwave, tell me
We need to know the legal consequences
Shall l call Manilal?
Who am l, to ask permission? Your husband?
My phone was lost in that DSNG van lf you give me your phone, l'll call him
Call him with the speaker phone switched on
l want to hear what he says
Okay
Don't tell him about this place
Stand near me and call
Hello?
Mani, it's me Renu
Where were you?
Couldn't you call? l was so worried
Don't ever be caught by the party men or police
All of them are in a frenzy
Tell me, what can happen to us, at the most?
lf you are caught it will be a big problem
Once arrested, you won't get bail for 40 days
l'll tell you a way out, because l'm concerned about you
The 1st one, who's caught gets 40 days in lock-up
When the 2nd person surrenders, it'll be forjust 1or 2 days
You will surely get bail, being a woman
Why take a risk? Get him caught somehow
Tell me the place, l'll take care of the rest
Don't glare at me, he likes me He must've said that, to save me
Your Mani...l'll...!
You and your people are all of the same kind, cheats!
Didn't you move away from me, to talk in secret?
l've been told the FlR has not yet been written
Yes
Tell me, you want to be defendant or a witness?
There's not much time isn't it, Anthony?
Yes, sir
Let's say, you trusted Renuka and aired the visuals from Bharath Vision
You neither knew anything nor did you entrust Venu this job, that's all
Bharatha Vision can continue functioning as usual from tomorrow
What do you say?
Where are they? Venu and Renuka?
They are on the run Don't you know?
We have decided not to run after them
Sorry sir, but l'm running after them
Was it for this show-down he was brought to the police club?
No sir, the commissioner wanted to question...
- No! - Sir!
You never asked me why l was running afterthem?!
l have my doubts, as to why they wanted to create a footage...
...of a man being killed when he actually was not
So l thought l'll ask them directly
Benny
You must find them, quickly Time is running out, for me and you!
You heard that?
Today's 10:00 PM news has to be neutral
But stress on, Renuka's thirst for exclusivity and popularity
Okay, sir
And Venu, just a camera man who covered, what she asked him to
See that you protect him lf possible, we'll drop a bombshell
An exclusive interview with Venu
ls it to be here, in the studio?
You...! Go get yourtext ready for the evening news!
Go, all of you
Dumbo! But not when he doesn't get his pay!
SP Somarajan sir is calling
Sir?
Rishi, Police may raid your studio Their intention is to catch Venu
Come, we have work to do
lf they begin to shoot take away the camera
Return it only after removing the footage
- lndhu, is the sound ready? - Ready
VCR must be in position
Only the indicator must be seen
Don't allow anyone to enter or exit
What is it, sir?
- Where is Venu? - Which Venu?
How many Venu-s do you know?
lndhu?
Call Venu
What is the problem, sir? Don't harass him, innocent chap!
Sir, there's Venu
What is it sir?
This...!!!
What is it, sir?
Are you making fun of me? Where is he buddy, the Reuters stinger?
Why would he be here? He must be at Bharath Vision studio
Don't play your games with me l'll deal with you good and proper
Tell me! You must know His 1 and only friend, right?
Sir, leave his collar Look, it's going on 'live'
Live?
Mr Rishikesh, as a responsible channel head shouldn't you be helping the police?
Get lost, you useless!!! Sure, l'll help you catch him, you...!!!
How can you behave like this?
Sudhi, cut Rishi's audio
Now onwards it will be a shower of swear words!
Ouch!
Okay, let me know if you get info This is my number, here
Okay, see you then
Sure
Sir, watch out, these rascals might put a camera even into our inner wear
lndhu, audio on
The competition for excIusive news may have put Renuka into this jeopardy
What you saw now, is how, based on past events...
...police are treating the entire media community
This is what DySPBenny Tharakan wrote, just before he Ieft the studio
I'II deaI with you outside, you dog!
In case you don't see me on this channeI you can concIude, I'm in poIice custody
We are on to fresh info about the teIecasting of faIse news issue
The poIice who are on the Iook out for Reuters stinger camera man Venu ...
...in connection with the controversiaI murder footage, wiII join us on Iine now
Hello Venu?
Sorry, our technicians wiII soon connect us
Hello?
Venu? Can you hear me?
Send me at Ieast a bottIe of brandy, you fooI!
HeIIo?
I'm going insane, there's nothing to booze, you miserIy vagabond
HeIIo
- Can't you hear me? - Yes, I can, teII me Venu
What actuaIIy happened that night?
What eIse, it was just a drama by that PiIIai
I must be kicked in the butt for faIIing for that...!
Hello, Venu?
You vagabond!
In this situation what have you got to say?
There are unscrupuIous fellows amongst us, who use personaI phone caIIs ...
...of even their cIosest paIs for excIusivity
If that attitude changes we can be free of such issues
Thank you, Mr Venu
A short break before we move on to other topics
Sir, Kakkanad, Skyline apartments
Sir, we've traced his hide out Skyline apartments, at Kakkanad
Very good
But we couldn't trace the floor he occupies
We'll enquire if any media person resides there and search that first
Da! l've favors saved up, to return to you! You sold me, on 1st chance you got, right?
Forget it, your phone call was traced and police have located you
Somaraj sir informed me, they'll be there right now, so go away from there
Where will l go at this time of the night?
Just move from there forthe time being l'll find another place and call you
Where are you going?
Police have traced us here They'll be here at any moment
Oh Lord!
One minute, l'll go to the john and come
l can't bear it any more
What?
Please stop!
What for?
What? What is it?
l want to pee
Oh! This will be our ruin! Couldn't you finish it at the apartment?
You locked the door and took off before l could, didn't you?
Get off
Please
Chey! That was an ambulance
Where is the bike's key, you...!?
Here
You were trying to get me caught, right?
l did that, so you wouldn't leave me and go
You cheat! Don't lie l know...you didn't go to pee
Chey! Get lost da!
You dare say, 'get lost, da' to me?
Didn't you start the bike to go off and let me get caught?
l thought l'll be ready by the time you come back
Why did you lock me up in the flat?
So what? Yes l did!!! To trap you, now what about it?
Sure, l too did the same
One of us must give ourselves up We can't live like fugitives, under pressure
l am not giving myself up without finding a solution to this
Then drop me at the police station and go
Don't start being sentimental, okay?
Sentiments?! Sure l don't have any Remember? Only popularity mania, right?
Look, no flashbacks, okay? Pouring oil on troubled waters!
You are a reporter, me, a camera man That's all, now get on the bike
Unless this is solved we are not surrendering
A hideout is ready, take the 1st left after the Alpuzha Nedumudi bridge
After about, 1 .5 km you'll see a wooden gate
l'll be there, with Abu
Okay
Who was it?
Rishi
Hi
Come dude, this summer house belongs to a friend, he's in the USA
Come
l'll come back tomorrow morning
What?
l'll be here in the morning with clothes and a hearing aid
Buy all newspapers you can lay hands on
l have news for you
Bharath Vision has denounced both of you
Vijaykumar presented it on the late night report
Tell this to her tomorrow
- lt's not over - What else?
News from Delhi, yourjob at Reuters has been terminated
What else?
Nothing much
Bharathan Pillai is being considered for CM post
The central committee is meeting Swearing in may happen soon
- Okay - See you, dude
Abu These clothes are for them
Da, give me those newspapers
- These are clothes for both of you - Thank you
Here's your hearing aid
Rishi, the original footage is missing from the DSNG van
Without that how can we prove the truth?
That's how they planned it The screen play was fool-proof
From the time we passed info to the restaurant drama, a neat script!
Written and directed by Bharathan Pillai
lf so, Rajan Kartha must be the producer
He's here in Kochi since the last few days
Almost from the day you came from Delhi
Didn't you say, swearing in of the CM will happen shortly?
We have time only till then, Rishi
Now Sugunan must be made to talk, isn't it?
Yes
Ouch!
Oh mother!
What happened?
He hit me and took off Some rascal!
Aw, my hand
Hey! Aren't you Sugunan sir?
Just give me a hand, brother Let's go to the hospital
- Ouch my hand! - Gently, take care
- ls it still paining? - No, it's better now
Sir you are very smartly dressed Don't you wear Khadi usually?
lt is to avoid TV Nuisance!
Look! That's the vehicle that hit me
Really?! l'll find out right now
Don't step out, you'll be recognized l'll go find out
- What's all this? - Exactly what we also want to know!
1st die, then come alive Are you the Lasser of modern times?
1st let him get over his shock Then he'll talk, our Sugunan -Lasser
Okay
We saw you being killed
We showed it to the public also No confusion about this at all!
But after some time you reappeared alive
- Public became confused -And so did we
We are not going to clear that We are going to increase it
On the same place and rope you will swing, hanging dead
We'll shoot it very smartly and show it to the public
The public will go mad What must they believe?
l swear, l have not done anything intentionally
l really thought they were going to kill me
l did tell Manilal, about the bribe You guys flashed it, as hot news
lt was only recently Pillai sir came to know it was l who had informed
l fell at his feet, cried begging his pardon He asked me to pass 1 more info to Manilal
That a murder would happen, on behalf of Pillai sir
After l did that, he asked me to leave
But the next day...
Sugana, come with me Bharathan Pillai sir, is asking for you
Hello, take this
What is it, sir?
What are you doing?
Leave me
What is it, sir
Stop it!
Don't harm me
Didn't l confess everything, sir?
Confession to the holy person in a church will do you good
But what's inside my chest is not a holy heart, Suguna
- Ready, sir - Lift him now
How is it? lsn't it okay?
Leave me, I say
Go, hang him!
After you left they returned
Shibu, this is an antidote Make him inhale it, he'll wake up
They took me to Pillai sir's house
When people turned nasty He asked me to come out
l was only a dupe sir, a dupe of the person who was to be, actually killed
Dupe?
ln that club house there will be an actual murder
ln the same place almost in the same manner
Who? Who will it be?
l don't know, sir
But l know for sure it's on the 12th night
How do you know this?
l heard Pillai sir's assistant Varghese, tell my captors...
...that they must leave the club house as soon as the deed was done
That their tickets have been booked for the 2:00 AM train, on13th morning
That they should return, only after Pillai sir, was sworn in, as Chief Minister
Abu, go drop Suguna at the nearest hospital
- Do you know who's going to die? - No
lt's you
Pillai wants to frame us with that crime
Don't try to run and escape Even if you try, they won't allow you
Remember, we haven't met
We'll be there on the 12th We want to shoot that event
Go, don't be scared Nothing will happen to you
-Abu - Yes, sir
Here, ask that lawyer Manilal to meet me before noon tomorrow
He started all this, right?
Mani, l have to see you urgently Come tomorrow afternoon
- What is it? - l'll tell you
We've found a way out of this mess You have to stand by us
Sure
- What did you think? - Poor fellow
Yes
He's a great actor, noticed his tears without a drop of glycerin? Cheat!
We did not get him, dude Pillai threw him at us, a bait
What are you saying?
lt's the next scene in Pillai's frivolous drama
Believing his story, Renuka and l will go on 12th, to shoot the original murder
Pillai, Kartha and their boys will wait Because it is we who are going to die
Simple
Gosh! This is getting more and more complicated
lf we remain free, they are clueless as to the extent we'd go, to prove the truth
So we have to be eliminated forever
They will make us, fugitives forever Police, government and the media
We have no option but to go to their butcher shop on 12th
This is a trap for us, as well as our only way to escape
lf we win, we can regain all we lost As well as ensure, Pillai's political funeral
- lf you lose? - Death
Like your usage, 'it seems' they committed suicide
On 12th we are shooting the incident, whatever the risk
Look at the irony of it
However priceless, this exclusive we shoot now is, no channel will air it!
Except for his NBI
Ours is a small channel...
...if you intend giving it to some gigantic one, please let me know
We don't have to trouble ourselves unnecessarily
Only l will be going, to shoot this
What if l come?
You want to sign-out, as usual Just forthat, you needn't come
This is an issue involving my credibility
l will come! Whoever objects, l'll come!
Go, let me plan this out
l have been tolerating innuendos for last 3-4 days
l don't want considerations Nor do l even expect it
You don't deserve it also
l don't need to convince you of that
The 1 who was supposed to be convinced, has never come forward
l am not interested in a reconciliation talk
Me too
Then?
This is a social issue which involves me too
l cannot stay away whatever you say
This is to make you stay away from death, you...!
After all, he did have you in his heart, for some time
He is now going into the arena of death
- What? - Nothing
Tell me, Rishi What is happening?
lt's not Sugunan, who will die lt will be you and Venu
Do you really want to go now?
lf l don't go after knowing this l won't exist anymore, Rishi
l thought we had time, that when l get a chance, l could explain
l expected such a chance, when l set out with him on this venture
Since that is no longer a surety...
l'll tell you the truth, l never betrayed you
That day, fearing the police when Venu sent me off in the van
l was on my way to our...sorry, your studio
But...
Abu make it fast, its already 9:15 PM lt has to be edited and aired by 10:00 PM
Renu, be assured l'll reach you there in 15 minutes
Mani! Success! l'm on my way to the studio with the footage
Renu l know, l was there nearby
lt's all a mess now and Venu has been caught by the police
Now, they'll soon be after you
Aiyo! Oh God!
l am right behind you, a black lnnova Stop and get into my car, that will be safer
-Abu, stop here - Renu, time is...?
Abu, just stop!
Get in, quick!
Mani quickly, it has to be aired at 10:00 PM
Be on Bharath Vision's pay roll and get the story for NBI Channel, eh?
But l am no longer your staff l resigned 5 days back
We've not got any such resignation And even if there is, l've not accepted it
Mani, stop! l want to get out
He will not, because if he does this footage will go to Bharathan Pillai
Drive us to the studio, dude!
He has taken Rs 2 lakhs from us for this story
How can this become NBI's launch story?
My mistake sir, l didn't know she had committed to NBI
l will return that money today itself...sir, please!
That's all over Nothing more to discuss
Sir, but...
lt's not money alone
Once you did this story, he'd bargained and fixed senior editor's post for you
Mani, l don't want any post Get me that footage back
This will come only in NBI
lt will not
lt can come in any other channel, but never NBI
l am sitting in the chair Rishi discarded and left
How can l let this explosive story, be launched by Rishi?
Mani, forthem it's channel war To me it's a question of trust and my life
Mani please, tomorrow Venu and l are getting married
Sir, please!
You don't talk anymore
l will not air this without your permission
But l'll use this to make sure NBI is not born
Simple, l'll just hand this overto Pillai
NBI will remain, a dream to Rishi And Venu is in police custody
l won't be able to even guess in what state, he will return
You have time till Pillai attends this call
Sir, no l beg you
Sir, it's her future that will be affected
- Hello? - ls it Bharathan Pillai?
Yes
Sir...
l became 'all alone in one single night'
With nothing left, l had only Bharath Vision, as an option for survival
Renu, 5 years you have...
Oh God!
- Venu must be told... - Don't, Rishi
He must not know this now He won't take me along otherwise
l know his concern, for people he cares for, please don't tell him
Okay, l won't
What is that secret meet there?
Will that she-devil betray us, in this also?
Da! Don't be so mean
Are you on her side or mine?
This is why we say you should also be there
Your cousin is risking her life for this
Convince her not to, she refuses to listen to me
Venu, is there some other way out?
You tell us
Mani, let Venu explain
Today is the 10th Day aftertomorrow, it is12th
Only if we convincingly shoot our act, that we are going to die...
...Pillai and Kartha's intentions can be proved
But how and who will shoot this?
lt's impossible to shoot in the club house or surroundings
Then?
Come, l'll explain
500 meters away, that is half a kilometer away, on top...
...of the pavilion, cameras with telescopic lenses, will be set up
Rishi's camera crew will operate them
Pretending to cover Sugunan's murder we will reach the club house, on12th night
We'll get surrounded by them and a little struggle will ensue
A little action sequence by me And finally, we get caught
lf Kartha comes, we can expect a cinema style dialog
l'll have a voice recorder in my pocket
After shooting what we want you and Abu should interfere
Don't delay my friend, or we'll never come out alive!
l agree, sir
Can l tell you what l fear?
Those who fear need not come Didn't l warn you?
Let her tell her opinion
Yes, Renu?
ln case we are not able to pull this off, Pillai and Kartha...
...will escape for ever We can't take a chance
That is what l'm also coming to, silly
- This will not be exclusive to NBI - What?
We will allow 2 more channels to shoot, without our involvement
That's why l asked, Manilal also to come
Go climb a wall!!!
lt's impossible! This is exclusive to NBI
Dude?
Don't say 'no'! l've pinned all my hopes on this and planned a lot for its success
Does our friendship have the value of, just an exclusive?
l have not gained anything with this friendship, l've only lost
- l will do this story alone, if not... - lf not...?
lf not, don't expect anything more from me
Then so be it! You are not doing this story
Abu! Start the vehicle
Rishi!
Didn't you hear me?
You can take it yourself, sir
Rishi? Please!
ls your father dead? Everybody thinks only of their own benefits
This is not the 1st time Abu can operate my camera
Lawyer Mani, 12th is day after tomorrow Tomorrow we set up camera at the stadium
Fix up a couple of more channels and let me know
Park it near the north of the stadium When it gets dark, we'll be there
Abu, don't wait, it'll take time Come only when l call you
Okay, sir
- What is it? -A mosquito
Mosquito?!
This is field limit, whatever happens don't move away from this limit
Find all possibilities and fix the limit
- Venu, there's a car! - l saw it too, you useless!
Bharathan Pillai!
Rishi has cheated us lt's not what we thought, lets escape
Be quiet girl!
Venu, it will happen today!
The camera is gone Now what's the point?
Whatever happens you won't die, enough?
Without getting into trouble come with me, you shrew!
l was in a hurry to die sir So, l came here today itself
There lies your camera, how will you shoot and show it to the public now?
Call that lawyer Call Manilal
Call that lawyer!
Don't!
Take it away, there mustn't be even a small scratch on the body
They have to be hanged Not murdered but as suicide
Why do you need a binocular camera to shoot such a near event?
Not binoculars, a microscope is enough for a worm like you
What are you glaring at?
Where are your contraptions witnesses, 2-3 channels, etc?
People ready to jump to save you from death, where the hell are they?
When you sent him away l knew, you'd smelt trouble
Stop lecturing and call that punk
Pillai waves from 1 .5 KM away and now hiding in the kitchen
l'll give you a sound sla-!
Why should l hide, Venu?
lt's you who are still in hiding
Venu, Manilal is trapped l heard his phone ringing
He's here somewhere
Lawyer, don't hide Come into the arena, you pig
Come out! lt'll be awkward only if have to see them, ever again
Son of a mongrel!
l don't have any cinema dialog l will go away after just 1 , okay?
This is not revenge, if it was l'd have had time, only for that in life
This isjust a precaution! Allow me to rule and live peacefully, dude
Taking cameras into people's bedroom, bathroom and calling it media activism!
This is the only medicine for all that, okay?
2 media persons who've lost credibility and life, commit suicide
Shall l hang them, sir?
Do you have anything to say?
l don't, but she has...a sign-off After all we are going to die, right?
Go ahead! Look somewhere and say it
From the place of events this is Renuka with cameraman Venu
More cameras?
lf there are cameras here ask your people to bash them up
Don't panic, these are last minute tactics to escape
Hang them both!
Freeze!
-Are we on time? - Perfectly on time!
What other contraptions do you want to see?
Open your eyes wide and look!
Lights on!
See, how many cameras!
No other channel Only NBI
Because, this is an exclusive for his channel
Arrest them
Lawyer, when Rishi stormed off angrily, what did you think?
That we had parted ways?
He had ajob here which needed 24 hrs
When l learnt that it was you who had fixed up a story for her...
...at Bharath Vision, l knew it was you, who was their pimp
You want to give him a couple? You can't, once we are out of here
That's not my job
But l want to!
Excellent!
That was personal
Come on, get going
Come, my girl
With 7- 8 cameras around, you signed-off looking, where there was no camera!
Smart girl! Come
Come on, say it now
This is Renuka with camera man Venu
- With camera man Venu? - This is Renuka, forever!
