Kai Kodukkum Kai (கை கொடுக்கும் கை)

Fifty-one! Fifty-two! Fifty- three! Fifty-four!

Why are you all crying? Tell me!

Kalimuthu went underwater and we counted till 100 but he's missing.

What's all this? I bet to stay underwater till they count 100.

After that, I just wanted to scare them. Here, I caught this while there.

I'd rather you be alive than win these bets. Playing the fool aren't you?

What are you laughing about?

All you do is hang around your at tan. Useless bum!

I didn't come empty handed! I brought fish for lunch!

Where did you get it? My at tan caught it! Go and start work!

I must do the work? I wonder when you're ever going to work!

Once she marries Kalimuthu, she'll automatically work.

Why are you struggling so much? Leave that to me!

Are you going to bull- It's easier catching bulls than fish!

You can't catch this fish! My at tan caught it!

I know how to catch it! I'll knock it on the head, like knocking him!

That fellow's fish is Be respectful! He's our future son-in-law!

Angry because I scolded your brother? I'll catch this fish!

You don't need to do anything! Only I can catch this! I'll whack it!

She did as she said!

Ragavendra, I pray for everyone's welfare.

It's getting late. Won't the hospital have closed? Shall we leave?

Kalimuthu has gone to arrange things. Just wait for a while.

I don't know how long the child can wait!

The doctor has agreed to wait for you all. Get moving now.

Use your hand instead of the bar. Use this money. Don't worry.

Be careful! Where are you?

What are you smelling? I smell fish. Where's it from?

It's your favourite fish. Eat it while it's hot.

Eat it. No, you eat it first.

What story is that? I'll tell you but you must eat.

An old lady made a snack.. I know that story!

But the snack I'm making is a new one!

Looks like she's happy! It's her laughter that keeps me going.

I hope God leaves it that way. Sita! Come here!

What is it Father? Her daughter is meeting a groom today.

We came to look at your face and hope that everything goes well.

Everything will be fine.

Everyone who looks at her and goes does fine; when will she get luck?

Why must you drink and come out to embaress me?

We don't have pride anyway! When I'm drunk, who cares!

Today's ammavasai - the day of no moon. But that is the moon.

That's the sun! Sun?! I'll kill you if you oppose me!

You drunk! It's the sun! What's the problem here?

Come here. Listen.

I am telling her the moon is out and she doesn't listen!

It's very hot. That's the sun.

I have to go your way to protect my other cheek.

You're right; that's the moon. It's ammavasai.

You've shown you're an educated chap. May you live a long life!

All your blessings! Tell your brother I enquired after him.

I will. How's the village?

It's fine. How's Gandhi?

You know him? Yes, he's my friend. How's Sri Lanka?

It was burning but fine Fine? I'll drink some more.

How come you're laughing so much? Tell me and laugh!

I got caught by Nallathambi on my way here. The problem was ...

Tell me!

He was drunk and insisting that it was the moon. I said it was the sun.

He just slapped me! He slapped you?

I told him that it was night. Can't you tell the difference when drunk?

You look and tell me. Is this the sun or the moon? Why are you quiet?

In my next life, if I can see and you're with me, I'll answer you.

Please forgive me. It's alright. It wasn't intentional.

I forgot why I'm here. I was at the shop and so, I bought you a saree.

Why are you laughing? In my opinion, you're everything.

You show me so much love that I don't feel I have any flaw.

My wish is for you to be happy without any problems.

Welcome Sir! Welcome!

Finished public service? Yes.

You do everything for the village but you forget us.

They only ask me to arbitrate. Am I the village head or are you?

What's all this now? I need to know today!

I am! What's there new to know?

He just helps you. He's the lower authority and you're higher!

I don't care! Can't he at least come home in time to eat?

I don't eat without him and you don't eat till I do. It's all for your sake.

You were screaming just now but now you're serving him.

Don't scold him. I know him better than you. He's a child at heart.

Serves me right for mediating! Both of you are the same!

Of course we're the same! Give me your hand!

Have you told Sita about tomorrow's ritual?

I went to look for her at the pond and I saw Mangamma bathing.

I meant after her bath. Then I went to Site's house".

You saw her isn't it? Just eat now. By the way,

You tell him to eat and then ask him questions. Where's the sense?

Someone's thinking of you even when you're eating.

Use the limechalk carefully! Otherwise, your tongue will burn.

Without your sister, I can't do anything. The village festival is nearing.

You must help me. I will. I will.

Why are you clapping? The both of you talk about the village only.

Don't you have other What are you talking about now?

Arbitration at home. What's the problem between you?

She's always butting in. What do you want? We're talking!

Very important issue about limechalk burning your tongue.

What do you say now?! Calm down. What is it now?

Does anyone here care about the girl ready for marriage here?

We fixed her for Kalimuthu when she was born. Only the wedding is left

She'll be old rice by then! That's the best for the body isn't it?

Just keep quiet now will you? What do you want me to do now?

I just want the wedding Okay, bring the necessary.

What do you mean? The calender; bring that here!

I'll take care; just wait. Here.

Month of July. Asupicious day. I fixed the date; now it's your problem.

You must come to our festival.

Please wait. Move aside.

Where's he going? What concern of yours is it?

Why are you taking so long? Give me the ax!

He brought it down so That much of arrogance..| mean strength!

Look at his gait and walk! Like royalty isn't it?

Massage his hand!

Tell me. That is..

Hold on! Sir, Thirukoonam is coming.

Why did you take so long? We took a long time to drain it.

You and your nonsense!

Stop scratching or the hair will drop! Yes, I'm giving him the money!

Stop mumbling! Go! Look, all my money is gone!

Come to the point! Think about it please.

Must I come? You will be honouring the village if you do.

Then, you're sure! Yes, Sir!

What do you think?

No it will not be good for you to go there..

Anything with the place? No, some difficult people there apparently.

Really? He won't come against my words!

I'll definitely come then! He's agreed! You can leave now!

Why do you ask for opinions and never follow it in the end?

Hold this till I enquire what is it about. It might fall.

You look so thin. Anyway, what is it about?

I need some money; you .. Yes, I will help you. Here, keep this first.

Look at how shy you are. Hope that man's not staring here.

Who's that girl standing next to the stage and being lively?

Who are you talking That girl is going to marry Kalimuthu.

Why is this man staring as well?

She does look good!

What are they waiting for? Kalimuthu needs to start the fight.

He's more powerful than his brother?

It's like that. In our village, I am .. less important.

Don't move too much. The stage might collapse.

Now, Kalimuthu will arrive and start the cock-fight!

What a walk and style! You of course, not him!

Greetings. My brother is arriving soon; can we start the fight?

Hurry up. The chickens might get old waiting.

Is that for the fight? Ask Sita to bless it.

Here bless it. What's this?

I guess it's blind faith. Couldn't I have been there?

I'll say something first; then start the fight!

Release our fighter!

They must have cheated or our cock won't have lost so fast!

Hey losers! We have the goat fight next! Release our blessed goat!

Cheating! They must have cheated here too!

What pride do you have after losing you bums?!

Useless! Clap my people!

If there's any man out there, come and I'll take you one-on-one!

Protect the honour of the village! Give him the sticks!

Stop it! Get lost! How can the elder hit the younger here?

I don't know how this started but I apologise on his behalf.

You've given me great respect for coming!

Kalimuthu, It's not in my habit to lose.

I know how and when to deteat you..

We're blessed to get this. I told you! Who'd reject such a proposal?

But we have no way to accept this as she is supposed to marry Kalimuthu.

But you haven't formally engaged her. Agree to our proposal.

He only wants to marry Even if we agree, there might be bloodshed.

Even this visit might provoke them to come here armed!

So, it's best we leave. Yes, there's no other choice.

Please explain why we're unable to give our daughter's hand.

But he must listen to us. He wants this girl. Do you have another girl?

No, only one daughter. You can't give birth to another now either.

No, it'll take too long. Take the tray. We'll leave now.

Yes, the cup is yours.

Would anyone give such a girl to our boss?

Is he that bad? Stop getting me into trouble!

I told you all that it wouldn't work. Here, use this cloth.

Why? To wipe that look off your face.

Is all this land "ours"? Not "ours" but mine!

Everything here is mine! Even the hay over there?

That's mine too! Even that?!

Your evil eyes will destroy everything!

See what is destroyed later! Show me now! Why wait?!

Give the tray and the umbrella. Tie him up and burn the necessary.

What are you doing? Just the usual!

Don't cause external injuries! Then, we can escape the police!

Stop there!

The greater danger is at home!

Are you going to stop the fire or end a life?!

My intention's in my hand! I know! Drop this first!

End your stubbornness as of today! It was you who started this!

Me? What do you mean? Your fighting and arrogance at the festival!

Soon, both the villages will be burning! And you caused it!

I didn't cheat or be disrespectful! The thought of them irks me!

I was like you till I Tell him about the date we've fixed!

We've fixed a date. Your marriage is next week.

What's the hurry now?

The hurry is because we need you to change your ways and be calm.

You didn't even ask me.. Why must I? Don't I have the right?!

You're marrying Marry Mangamma?

What's the doubt? You've been hasty. I will only marry ...

Sita!

What's this new story? What's all this?

How did you decide? My heart decided it.
