This is a story.

A history. An inspiration.

This movie depicts the spirit of revolution through

three great revolutionaries.

The characters in this movie

have no resemblance

with any living or dead.

Any resemblance

is purely coincidental.

This is the era in which the sovereignty of king's reign faded

and those who came as advisers of the king

overthrew him after attaining the Divan status

and ruled the land mercilessly and suppressed

the independence movements

with the support of British

who wished to rule our land.

This is where

this story begins.

Are you police officers or police dogs?

There's chaos everywhere!

Don't you have shame?

I didn't appoint you to bark like dogs.

I hired you to enforce the law.

I want the law to be enforced at any cost.

Travancore is an independent country.

And I am the ruler.

My command is the rule.

It should be enforced.

No one should raise their voice against Divan rule.

Cease those voices which do.

You should crush them.

"The chief of the house of Raghu, Lord Rama."

"Sitarama, You are the uplifters of those who've fallen."

I revere the motherland!

I revere the motherland!

I revere the motherland! - Oh, no!

I revere the motherland!

I revere the motherland.. - Shut up!

I revere the motherland..

Divan's misgovernance should stop.

Divan's misgovernance should stop.

Charge!

The reign of Divan

is essential for the Brahmin community.

I revere the motherland.

I revere the motherland.

I revere the motherland..

This is the voice that echoes

all around India. - I revere the motherland.

This council is being conducted here

as the Divan, who is suppressing this voice

is a Brahmin.

Siva! - Forgive me.

I am a Brahmin who respects

this council and this scared thread.

Suppressing the independence of the country

for the selfishness of a society is cruelty.

It is treachery. - Siva.

Don't speak against the Divan in this council.

He has done many good things for our society.

It is not for the society

but for the rich aristocrats who are his puppets.

What has he done for the poor?

Nothing.

Divan's misgovernance should stop.

This council should raise the voice against him.

Siva!

Get out of here.

Go.

Your brother is asking you to leave!

Go.

Okay.

See you, sir. - Okay.

Bye. - Okay.

Fees. Father asked me to give it to you.

Okay.

Siva!

Come on.

We are leaving. - Okay.

Bye. - Okay.

Come. - Sivakami. - Yes.

When is your father going to meet the Divan?

I don't know.

See you. - Okay.

Where is Siva?

Siva is at Mount Kailash.

He has gone to preach.

He is a good spokesman.

Spokesman!

Yesterday, his performance was in front of the council.

Devil!

Even the lamps won't stay lit in here these days.

It's Siva's grace!

Everyone will learn soon.

Have a great day, Bhagat Singh.

Your moustache and hat

are my inspiration.

I salute the courage you had shown to hail your motherland

even at the time of death

which you were sentenced for killing several British men.

Hats off.

Greeting, little master.

Ammal. - Yes.

I have asked you not to call me that.

Then I will call you 'little one'.

That will be better.

But don't think that you can

keep me in those little hands of yours.

All right, Mr. Patriotic little master..

I meant little one.

What are your plans for tonight?

I heard you performed very well at the meeting yesterday.

If you continue like this, you can only elope with me in the end.

I will have a flag in one hand and you in the other.

Am I right, Bhagyam? - Yes..

Subbulaxmi Amma is very angry and is holding a spatula in one hand.

Bhagyam. - Yes, I'm coming.

Have you finished your singing class?

Move aside. I'll give you another class.

Look into my eyes.

Do you notice anything? - No.

Do you see a shine in my eyes? - No!

Is it gone? It was shining a while ago.

Look carefully. - No.

Look again. - No. - It will start to shine.

Close your eyes.

Close your eyes. - Okay.

Don't open your eyes. You can see the shine when you open your eyes.

How much do you want? One or two?

Brother!

Here.

Have enough food!

You have to reform the society, don't you?

Mother. - Yes.

Yesterday, he came to the council and interrupted it with slogans.

The people there were all angry at me.

I had to apologise to everyone.

Or else, they would have thrown him out of the council.

Why are you doing this?

Won't you let me have my breakfast in peace?

You're the one who spoils our peace.

I warn you, from now on

don't get involved in any such activities.

You have to stop everything from today.

Listen, Mother. - Yes.

Mr. Parthasarathi Iyengar is going to meet the Divan.

He has promised me to get a job for Siva. - Is it?

Try to earn some money and buy some ornaments for your sister.

What's the point in living like this?

Don't you want to get her married to someone?

You must reform yourself before you try to reform the society.

Even our family is a part of the society. - What?

Keep quiet and have your breakfast. - Yes. - Simply..

Shankara, why didn't you get selected in the police force yet?

I'm trying for it.

Mr. Parthasarathi has recommended me.

I am hoping to get selected. - Okay.
