Pandavar Bhoomi

Oh Motherland! How I've lived without you for so many years?

You're the one who has borne me as mother

You've given food, water, place and protected us

You won't refuse me...

Like Plants & Trees... you're the one who has protected us also...

Who's he?

Is he Dhanasekaran?

Where were you for the past 12 years?

Not seen you for a long time?

Are you all fine?

Mother, I'm fine

Mother, are you fine? - Mother, I'm fine

She resembles the younger one

I'll cast my evil eyes

Are you all fine?

Brother-Hubby...

I thought, you all had died

You've comeback together...

You sinner! They've come here after 12 years

...I'll kill you...

That's why, God has still left me alive...

Again he has started the problem...

After that incident, we didn't know what to do...

We thought of even dying

How can these children be punished for elder's mistake?

Leaving these children alone-

We thought, that it was to give up our lives

Then, we went to city & worked in a Hoisery Factory at Thirupur

My brother and I, both worked...

Here, how all my sisters lived...

There, they all of them worked...

Like this, each one of them did some work...

That incident robbed us of our sleep...

But, we should live...

We should redeem our status...

We worked hard...

As the days passed, we too got used to that city life

We forgot all that, as children grew & went for studies

We never thought of coming back here

But, one thought was pricking us...

That we had left mother's house like this

Mother also frequently came in our dreams

And said "You sinners, you've kept our house in such a bad state"

With God's blessings, our business flourished

And we lead a luxurious life

We decided that the house in which we had lived, shouldn't be ruined

Now, we've come here to rebuild it...

By building a house in our birth place and dying in that place

Is it not a good thing?

That's why, we've come here

Dhanasekaran, Okay, leave it...

For your noble thoughts without any problems-

You've comeback with your children Isn't it?

Now, start building your house

I'll help you as much as I can...

My other house is vacant...

Till you rebuild this house you all can stay there...

Hey! They've come... they've come...

Go & kill... kill the entire family...

You thick skinned... do you want food?

Are you going to kill or I should kill?

I know when, where & whom to kill...

Hey! Raise it up... little... more

That one... that one... - I can't...

That one. - Lift me up... - I can't...

That one... look, that one... - I can't...

Hold it properly...

Thamarai, why have you stopped?

Wild Jungle Fruit!!

Have you not seen the Wild Jungle Fruit?

Come... - I want...

I said come... come...

Hey, why're you shouting at her?

You come, my dear...

I won't come... I want that...

It's at a height, isn't it?

Using a hook stick, we'll pluck... come...

I won't come... will you pluck it and give it to me or not?

Hey! Now are you going to come or not?

She's an adamant girl... - When she's not adamant?

Look brother...

Don't act... she didn't get a single tear

You've pampered her a lot...

Both of them are dear to me...

Selvi, don't cry... I'll come...

Now, where is he going?

Brother is responsible for her stubborness

Wait a minute...

Hey! Come...

Get on my shoulder... - What?

Get on... you want to pluck Isn't it?

I said, you're pampering her too much

But, this's too much

I had brought you up also in the same way...

Hey! You come... here... - Brother

Come, get on the shoulder... - I'm coming...

Brother... how can both of them...? - Slowly

Brother... hold it carefully...

Hey, be careful... be careful - Brother slowly...

Is it reachable?

Brother, it's not reachable...

Wait a minute... Thamarai, come here... come...

Hold your younger brother's hand

You'll fall! Be careful...

Sit properly...

Why're you so adamant in having that fruit?

Be careful...

Tamarai, sit properly

Is it reachable?

In my childhood, I played catching game...

I won in Kabbadi game

All dry lands are winking at us...

Even the barren tree is smiling at us

We're remembering the olden days...

My poor heart is craving...!!

Smell of the soil enriches the heart

Eyes are drenched in tears

A bunch of tamarind & fruits have grown

We remember the day of ears-piercing & the grand dinner

Have we got the youth again?

Will the withered relationships blossom again?

Welcome... my dear children...

Only now you remembered to come & see this mother?

You've left this earth and me with these growing thorn plants, isn't it?

Who is she?

This's our Grandma's Tomb

Look at that statue...

Those days, the one who had built a Temple in our town

This's the statue of his sister

She's like a Queen of this house

Is it? -Very nice woman

Mother used to say that no one is superior than her in hospitality

Greetings... - Greetings

Please, sit down...

We're from Vellallur Village near Mellur

Tell me...

To form our Village-

In your father's period they had built a Temple in our Village

To set up our clan-

In your Grand father's period they had built a house

Like this, my mother proudly used to say about your generations

Now, in your own village, we want to build a house

By knowing the olden culture-

Now, there're very less people to build the house in an Artistic way...

Like the Chetiyar's house which was built in the ancient times

Who's there other than your family?

Instead of telling there's no men-

Now-a-days, they don't want to build such type of houses

It's not needed either...

Even then, if they build it-

One should have special earnings to look after it!!

In this modern taste, everyone is building the house with Marbles & Granites...

Even though advancement has come-

Will it be strong like Old Buildings?

But, there's no value for it...

Now, who knows the worth of Olden Culture?

That's why, as my profession shouldn't vanish

I've made my son to study Engineering

I had taught him the techniques to construct ancient buildings

You yourself come & see at the site

And if you tell us an idea how to build a house...

We'll be happy & it'll be the lucky one...

My son is more intelligent than me...

He's more interested & more eager to achieve something in the profession

I'll send him...

He will build a house according to your wish...

Hey! Oh Chamba! Come to us...

Oh Chamba! Come to us by remembering us...

I'm Rakku Muthu who has touched the nose by the tongue

Show your leg to hook the Silver Anklet

I'll not show my leg like a Goat kid

If I show you my leg you'll try to pull hair of it

Oh Beauty! To catch the fish in the Vaigai River-

Will you give your Saree as a net?

If I give my Saree to catch fish-

Then, you'll ask for my blouse to keep the trapped fish...

To trap the Parrot in the farm give me your Red lips...

You Silly!!

I won't give my lips to trap the Parrot

If you don't find the Parrot-

You'll return my lips by biting...

I've brought the Honey from the Mountains...

My dear! Give your dimple cheek to pour the Honey...

If the Honey overflows in the dimple cheek-

You'll ask for my dimple heart... I won't give you anything...

Ask the heart from the smart girl

She won't refuse to give... try & see...

It's enough if you win woman's heart

Without asking, you'll get whatever you've asked...

Yes, from the top to the bottom-

You can ask whatever you want I'll give you generously

...Madam...

Is this Dhanasekaran Sir's house?

Yes... who are you?

I asked you only in Tamil...

My name is Tamilarasan an Engineer

I've come here for the Construction work

Come... Come... please, get in...

Come... come...

Sit down... - It's alright
