Which Parish does he belong to?

I don't know which Parish, Father

But he's a Colombian

To be frank, I can't sleep after hearing that, Father

Please do a requiem immediately, Father

- Chandra Warrier... - Mehru is here

- Khaderkutty? - Seems like you're busy?

Not really

My hands are wet

How come Mehru is wearing coloured clothes?

- No uniform? - It's her happy birthday today, right?

Didn't you bring sweets?

I've brought sweets I'll give it when we reach school

That's enough

Move from this side

Or do one thing

Keep this next to the well

Don't take all that, Mehru It's full of dust

- That's okay, Mom! - These kids!

Who is this, Dad?

That?

That's Andres Escobar, dear

He was the defender of the Columbian team

But he made a blunder during the '94 World Cup

It was a game against America

He hit a self-goal

Because of that, many people ganged up and shot him dead

The night Uncle Andres died...

He went to Thrissur Church with his photo,

...woke up the Father and made him offer a requiem

- My dear father! -Yes!

We, football fans can never forget him

That's the kind of atrocity those Colombian rascals did to him!

What game is this, man!

What's happening?

Where the hell were you? Look!

Wait and see!

What game was Brazil playing?

But that awesome game that Argentina played against Nigeria?

If they continue to play like that, we will win the cup for sure!

Why are you dreaming like this, Chandra Warrier?

You're yet to see awesome games from Brazil!

What happened?

Chandrefia‘.!

My dear Escobar Etta...

Do you know what's happening here?

My dad has also come up there

Say Hi, when you see him

He was your only fan who used to think of you always, in India

Kerala

A stretch of green that Lord Parasurama brought out from the sea with his axe

But, beyond the various kinds of celebrations that happen year after year,

the biggest celebration of a huge group of people in Kerala happens once in 4 years

The Football World Cup!

Though different teams have fans in our State,

when it comes to numbers and strength,

both in Kerala and in our village,

Kaattoorkadavu, these guys are the front-runners!

'2010 World Cup Season'

But Anthrukka should collect funds They won't listen to us, that's why

Najeeb!

They have come with some new trouble!

Hey Ajayghosh!

You can't tie your Brazil flex on this tree

Why» Vipinan?

Will this tree bite us?

No, it will scratch you!

Najeeb, did you see what's written on that tree in blue paint?

'Argentina Fans Booked' Did you see it?

Suni, before you wrote that, we took measurements and printed the flex!

So you leave that!

We will tie this flex here itself!

- Let's see! - We'll show you!

Instead of writing 'Booked' on trees & pillars, go write that on the World Cup!

Half-wits!

Hit him!

Hit him back, Najeeb!

- Let's see! - The kids have started fighting, Member

Instead of grinning, go and stop them, man!

Oh God!

"A naughty breeze, or a striking lightning?"

"Are you a smart jasmine flower?"

"Are you a dragonfly who can trap anyone within your eyes?"

"0 smiling girl!"

"She's a fiery bird"

"Her tongue is as sharp as a sword"

"An entire bunch will be under her control now“

This is Mehru Mehrunnisa Khaderkutty

This fight happened now, just because of her

'2008'

- Mom, I've cut the grass - Okay

What all are you reading?

Read some comic books instead!

Can't you call before coming?

Yeah right!

To take appointments before coming, who are you? Thrissur district Collector?

Get ready fast, boy!

The meeting at the library will start now

I need to change my clothes

You move to that corner and change, man!

I'm not going to look!

I need to take bath

My dear Vipinan, we don't have time!

Change your clothes and come!

Hey!

Don't wear that cream shirt

For slim, fair and stylish boys like you, check shirts are better

Your selection is so poor, man!

Even though you are handsome, you don't have any sense of beauty!

Well...

Who said that I am handsome?

Does that need to be said out loud?

Not just me

Baby Chandana, Smitha Thomas and all are talking about you now

There's a Chechi in 12th Grade, right? Aryambika? The book worm?

She says that you are as handsome as Upagupthan!

Mehru, come and have tea!

Coming!

Change and come fast!

Mom, have you made that Vermicelli sweet today?

That's all here Yo u com e

Upagupthan?

Aryambika!

Aryambika Vipinan!

"A glance, as precious as a treasure"

"A glance back, in which the eyes lock"

"A glance with a smile on the lips"

"Waves within my heart"

"if we sit together merrily, my beauty"

"Is it the Thiruvathira night, when night flowers bloom?"

"As the heart flies high like a small feather"
