Settle the account and raise your voice.

Mom, don't keep repeating the same.

What did I say?

You have to come tomorrow. I'm registering the land in your name.

I'll get the money from her

and will hand over to Veeranan.

Make sure you get draped in the best saree.

I'll be back by a trip. - Why?

For land registration. - I'll take care of it. You are not required for it.

Thevaram- Shopping street.

Oppari (death ritual folk song)

I have passed the information.

My brother would have hired a car to leave.

Get me kesari (dessert).

Kethara is sleeping over there.

Why is a podium erected?

Ramayya's mother passed away.

A tea for me.

Which path are you taking today? - Saakaloothu Mettu.

Bro!

Why don't you rest at one place?

I'm tired of searching you.

I went for the last show (Cinema).

I slept here as it started to rain.

Have this kesari (dessert).

2 teas.

Shall I borrow this bench?

You need not seek my permission.

Rangu.. give me a hand.

Haven't prepared the lights?

Do I need to pass the death news. - I have already passed it.

They must have started.

Uncle.

Why are you hitting them? - They aren't obliging me.

What do you mean? - They aren't obeying me.

Move.

Isn't you land registration tomorrow?

Yes.

Is it Veeranan land in Kariyanampatti foothills?

Yes.

It's a rocky terrain.

You need not worry.

We can clear it.

Okay.

We are lucky enough to get this business.

Your parents have slogged very badly to buy a piece of land.

But your father isn't lucky enough.

You want to buy a land before your mother passes away.

Why don't you follow the path?

Why are you whamming them?

Are you insane?

For the urgency of the bosses

you started to carry the load.

Since then the donkey's were discarded off.

Why do you turn your anger towards them?

Despite knowing that it's fatal

they are carrying the load.

We can't help them.

These donkeys are refraining from their regular work.

They are used only once or twice in this way.

They are helpless.

It's my mistake to wham them.

Move..

Are you trying to appease after whacking hard?

Why do you hurt innocent creatures?

Is it the only way to reach Kerala by walk?

There are many ways.

There is one route on this side and one via Saakaloothu.

A path via Pathinettaam Padi.

There are many such ways.

This is Kuthirai Paanjaan.

This path is enroute to Sathurangaparai..

Manathodu..

Thalayankaval..

Namari..

Uduppan Solai.

You can reach all these villages in Kerala enroute this way.

Men have come, you can join them.

These guys? - Yes.

Grandma. - What have you brought for me?

Lachumi, get me a coffee.

Sister Bhakkiyam..

Why are you grinding the batter so late?

Elephant intrusion.

We just chased them away which delayed my chores.

The elephant was creating a ruckus

I have been working all night.

Who is this guy?

He is my kin.

He is from Nilakottai.

He needs to invite people in Manathoadu for his family function.

He is scared of elephants.

Are you scared of elephants?

Why are you bothered about it?

Actually..

If we mind our business, they will mind theirs.

In a worst case..

They will not harm us if pleaded.

Are you sure of it? - Yes. - Fine then.

Has the insane lady gone there?

I tried stopping her. But she seldom listens.

Let's start. - Increase the flame.

Too much of smoke. - Okay, grandma.

Come on.

Bye.

Good bye.

Take care.

Rangu.. Drop him in Manathoadu.

Okay.

Elephants won't attack us.

Uncle.

I'm used to living in the plains.

These paths are new to me. So, I'm slightly scared.

We too travel via the same route. Don't worry.

Our lives are equally worth.

It's my maiden trip.

I'm not used to this path.

Elephants are harmless creatures.

Have elephants ever come to our territory?

Indeed we are crossing their path. THEVAARAM (FOOT HILLS)

Why blame them?

Elephants always follow a certain pathway.

We cross their path and blame them.

They are very unlike us.

Do they often change the paths like humans?

I agree.

'Western Ghats'

'Western Ghats'

Take him safely.

Bye. - Okay.

Bye.

Uncle.

Uncle.

That route isn't very smooth. Shall I assist you ?

Not neccessary.

I'm quite sure of the path. Get lost.

I can travel safe even if I'm blinded.

You are guiding me?

Reach safe.
