Tell me.

Hello.

Aargh! Grandma!

Yes. Tell me.

When?

I... I will come now.

Mom! Something urgent came up!

- I'll be right back! - Have some food and go!

Why are you in such a hurry?

Deviyechi!

Hey Abhi!

Where is Paviyettan?

He left in the morning itself, to meet a prospective bride.

- So early in the morning? - Yes.

- He left even before I woke up. - Is it?

He believes that nothing good will happen if he sees my face!

He is crazy!

Where is it happening?

I don't know. Will he tell me that?

Anyway, it's not in this town.

Why so?

There are no more prospective brides to meet in this town, right?

Oh my Deviyechi!

He didn't take the phone.

Shucks!

Where will I go find him now?

He goes missing right when something urgent comes up!

If you call him for something urgent, Pavithran will reach immediately!

People have only good things to say about 'Society Pavithran'.

- Yes. - He is an all rounder, right?

The entire town has a high opinion of him.

I know all that.

Is there anyone who doesn't know 'Society Pavithran'?

Everyone knows it. But I just mentioned it.

I had two love affairs earlier.

The townsfolk had a high opinion of them too.

But since they didn't have an upper caste surname as a tail,

my dad didn't have such a great opinion about them.

It's not like what he's claiming.

I measure the milk at the dairy co-operative society.

That's how I got the name.

I'm somewhat of a socialist.

So, I've never really cared about these upper-caste surnames!

Love is more important than all that, right?

Why aren't you saying anything, Sujina?

I have to tell you something, Pavithretta.

Oh! Not 'Pavithrettan'.

' Paviyettan' Call me that.

That can wait.

I need to call you that only if this works out, right?

Whatever be the case, you can call me that.

Even if it is to say that you don't like me,

you can say, 'Paviyetta, I don't like you'.

Anyway, I know you're going to say that.

I'm not insulting you.

You know that my dad brought this alliance...

because of the issue in my horoscope, right?

But if I leave this house now,

another person will be in trouble.

So,

I don't want this marriage.

What is it?

If you have any problem, you can tell me.

Whatever help you need, this Paviyettan will do it.

The help you need right now, is to break this alliance.

Right?

Why not!

I'm quite used to all this.

Chandretta, she is actively looking for a job.

If you give her some time for that...

Did we ask you anything?

Go inside!

Listen, Chandran.

If we keep listening to whatever they say,

their voices will become louder.

They will climb on top of our heads.

But times have changed, right Ravi?

Does that mean that we should let the kids do as they please?

I'm not such an old-fashioned person.

If that was the case, I'd have asked you to stand outside and talk.

Right?

- Isn't it? - That's true.

Yes, yes.

Here you go.

Call me if you need anything.

It's alright.

I'll make up some reason to tell your Dad.

Okay then.

- Hey! - Yes.

Please don't be upset with me.

Not at all.

Spread love!

I learned it from the boys.

"O' girl, like the deep dark clouds"

"O' deer, with a smile on your face"

"The rhythm of my heart has faltered, o' black-eyed beauty"

"When you narrate a story with your swan-like eyes"

"our boy whose mouth is wide open, becomes happy"

'Kooman Thonda'

'Sumalatha Arts & Sports Club'

- Yes? - Hey!

You woke up so early?

- I haven't slept. - Why?

Why are you here so early?

I need to tell you something.

Stop, stop!

Where are you going, Anikutta?

- It's the wedding invitation. - Wedding? Wow!

Is it your elder brother's wedding?

No! It's my wedding!

- Your wedding? - Yes.

Be there on the previous day itself!

If not, please come for the wedding at least.

- For Deviyechi? - No need. I'll give it.

Okay then.

- Komala Chechi! - Yes.

- Did you see Paviyettan? - No.

'Komala Tailors'

"The jingle of your glass bangles and the tinkling of your anklets"

"You snatched me away with your kohl-lined eyes, my dear"

"Your lips, as red as rose apple"

"And your cherry cheeks"

Stop, stop!

Hey, stop! Stop, I say!

- Why have we stopped here? - Toddy for me,

breakfast and sad song for you! Come on!

"Around this neck adorned a pearl necklace"

"Even if you have all this or not"

"I love you, girl"

"Even if I can't give you a tree full of cash"

"I can give you my heart, my dear"

"I shall tie the nuptial chain right below your neck, my dear"

"I shall keep waiting for you to say yes"

"If you give me a glance,"

"I shall fix the wedding on the fourth day"

Nisha!

Did someone come to see you today?

- To see me? No. - No?

What do you want?

No, Chetta. I didn't mean that.

I came searching for someone.

It's from the morning batch.

Chetta!

One buttermilk Sarbath!

He drops by when he visits Bibeesh's house or Avarangattu, normally.

It's not that. He went to meet some prospective bride somewhere.

Why are you angry about that?

I hope at least this one happens!

Let at least one guy from your gang, have a good life.

I don't see any chance for that though.

Anyway, my aunt will have something to laugh about.

Marriage is not something that's completely in our control, right?

We'll see.

We can also make it happen ourselves.

Girls of this age will have many desires and thoughts.

If you keep heeding to them,

you will be doomed.

Are you the one who's saying this, Chandretta?

I joined the club, being inspired by people like you.

You were such an awesome person back then.

You threw that 'Yuvajanatha' board away,

and fixed the 'Sumalatha' board. Don't you remember that?

- I do remember. - Oh, you do?

And the same man is talking all this regressive nonsense now?

Those times have passed, Pavi.

You need to take care of yourself.

This isolation...

is not a joke!

I'm not saying that your boys are too bad.

When they're old and mature enough,

they will go their own way, wiping the dust off their bums.

You won't have anyone else, other than you!

Let them go, Chandretta.

But when they need something, they will come to me, right?

Will they be there for you when you need something?

If I start thinking like that, what kind of man would that make me?

Oh! "What a virtuous world!"

- So that's what you yearn for! - Not like that.

No need to cough. It didn't work out.

Now you can tell everyone in the village.

Why are you getting angry at me?

Are you really my aunt?

Why do you have that doubt?

16 years have passed since your mother died.

Have I brought any harm to you so far?

What you're doing now is not harmful?

Haven't I taken care of you?

- Haven't I taken care of you? - You can continue doing that, right?

How much longer!

I'll die only after you die!

Hey!

According to your horoscope, if you don't get married now,

it will happen only after you turn 45.

Let's sit and watch each other's faces till then.

Well, even if you don't pray for my marriage to happen,

please don't pray that it should get cancelled.
