Katharbasha Endra Muthuramalingam

In the early days, humans were living in the wild.

They gradually evolved...

and lived happily without any differences.

The united human clan...

migrated to different places in masses.

They changed their lifestyle, to adapt to the changing climate.

And disintegrated into smaller groups.

Each smaller group lived within their particular region.

People from different groups lived in peace and harmony.

But, when they left their own place...

to invade and capture other regions,

people started to fight among themselves.

Any war that has taken place in Africa...

or any war in Europe,

or even the wars in Asia.

Wherever there is a war, it will either be for land...

or for a woman.

The great epics of our country,

also speak about the war for land and woman.

Mahabharatham happened for land, Ramayanam happened for women.

The movie you are about to witness...

depicts the war for land and the war for women.

Greetings, sir. My name is Thukkiyandi.

I am from Keelathuval.

I am interested in marrying your girl Tamil Selvi.

Are you surprised by my marriage proposal?

I heard that you will butcher anyone who tries to marry her.

I came here to see if you'd really butcher the person.

Hope you'll understand and tread carefully.

Or else...

'The chief guest of our Kotravai temple festival.'

'The south region head of Worker's Progressive Federation.'

'We welcome our leader Thanga Pandian, on behalf of our people.'

'Today, we have a good news for you all.'

'Today, our leader will gift home appliances...'

'to the hardworking homemakers of our town.'

'Long live!' -'Thanga Pandian.'

'Long live!' -'Thanga Pandian.'

'Long live!' -'Thanga Pandian.'

'Long live!' -'Thanga Pandian.'

'Long live!' -'Thanga Pandian.'

'Long live!' -'Thanga Pandian.'

Hmm.

Muthupandi, check that noise. - Okay, sir.

[Kathar Basha alias Muthuramalingham]

You say that Nana sent you, but do you have the advance money?

Give that.

Here, twenty-five lakh rupees in advance.

Nana asked us to give it.

He will settle the full amount after the registration.

You have kept your word.

Do not worry. We will get that land for you.

Nana has great faith in you two.

Transfer that girl's wealth to your name soon.

Now that we have been paid, Nana will definitely have the land.

We will never let anyone marry her, except for our sons.

We have arranged a town meeting to settle it.

This is not right Tamil Selvi.

You are causing a lot of problems in this town.

Your reluctance to get married is getting everyone killed.

Listen to us.

Two of your suitors are desperate to marry you.

We will write their names in a chit.

Pray to God and select a chit.

Whoever's name you may choose, we will marry you with him.

Do you accept the council's decision?

Yes, we accept.

Everyone has accepted it. What is your answer?

I cannot marry them just because you people decided it.

I know whom to marry and whom not to marry.

You must not decide it.

Who else will decide then?

Look, this is not good for you.

Quietly accept the people's decision.

If she doesn't, she will be shunned out of the village.

Instead of living in this village headed by puppets,

I'd rather be shunned out of it.

Who are you all to shun me?

I am shunning this village. Come on.

How dare she refuse to marry one of us, the suitors?

Is she shunning this village?

Let's see how she can do that!

Let's see how she can live peacefully

hereafter locking horns with us!

"Come forward without any hesitation."

"The breeze will embrace you."

"The Lord will be on your side."

"This earth will be your companion."

"You are a never-ending river."

"This village will flourish because of you."

"You are not a spark of fire."

"You are the Kannagi's blazing flame."

"Wipe your tears, the world is open for you."

"The clouds will rain on your command."

"The farm animals will obey you."

"Come forward without any hesitation,"

"the breeze will embrace you."

"All your sorrows will fade away."

"You will overcome all the obstacles."

"Your honesty will be rewarded."

"Raise, nothing can stop you."

You're shunned from the village. Can't take loads! Leave!

"People may go against you."

"But your determination will aid you."

"Make your persevere as your investment."

"It will yield the fruits of victory."

Sister...

Yes.

Why are you avoiding speaking with our aunt?

Think about everything that she does for us.

She is not doing it out of care.

She is doing everything, to swindle our father's wealth.

Who told you so?

Our mom said so.

But, I don't think that our aunt will do such a thing.

You are just kids, you don't know her real face.

Soon, you will understand that I am right.

Why? Why? Why?

Why is the sky blue?

Why is the earth round?

Lord Kaluvanar, my brother's children

should study well and be successful.

You must be their guardian forever.

Why is the fire hot? Why is the silk soft?

Think! Why is it so?

Selvi...

Selvi...

I am going to Madurai. Take care of your sisters until then.

I will be back in the evening. Alright?

Palani, Muthu. - Aunty.

I have prepared the lunch. Eat it on time. Okay?

Okay, aunty. Have a safe journey.

Okay. - Shall we leave?

Yes. - But...

why did you call me early this morning? Where are we going?

To the Madurai jail. Let's go. - Madurai jail?

Alright, let's go. I haven't seen it yet.

Really? Why is she going to Madurai jail?

I don't know, mom.

Keep me updated about her activities.

Okay, mom.

I will inform to your grandpa.

So what?

Why must we bother where she goes?

We must let this go lightly. We must know where she is going.

Who is she meeting in Madurai jail?

Who do you want to see?

Kathar Basha alias Muthuramalingham.

Kathar Basha alias Muthuramalingham?

He broke a man's arm inside the jail...

and was transferred to Trichy jail. Go see him there.

What shall we do now?

We must go to Trichy. - To Trichy?

I did not bring my clothes.

Let's buy in Trichy.

Will you buy me some jeans?

Okay. - Thanks.

But the kids are alone, who will look after them?

Let's inform head constable Maduraiveeran.

Alright then, not Trichy but we can go anywhere!

Who do you want to see?

Kathar Basha alias Muthuramalingham.

He was transferred here from Madurai jail.

That guy?

They sent him here because he broke a man's arm.

He broke a man's leg here and was sent to Coimbatore.

Go there.

He broke a man's leg in Trichy and was sent here to Coimbatore.

Here, he broke a man's head and was moved to Salem.

He was moved from Salem to Chennai.

Moved from Chennai to Vellore.

Moved from Vellore to Palayamkottai.

In all the jails, he needed protection from rowdies.

And, the rowdies needed protection from him.

So, they reprimanded him and have sent him

to Chengalpattu Juvenile Prison.

Go there.

Your name?

Subbu, sir. - Your son's name?

Muthupandi, sir. - Show me your Aadhar card.

Get yourself checked and get in.

Do not take much time. Go in.

Who do you want to see?

Kathar Basha alias Muthuramalingham, who came from Palayamkottai.

What? Do you want to meet Kathar Basha?

Subbu! - Yes.

She is here to meet Kathar.

What? She is here to meet Kathar? - Yes.

Raj! You deaf fool! - What is it?

A girl is here to meet Kathar.

A girl is here to meet Kathar?

Please do not go anywhere.

Wait here.

And, take him along with you.

He tortures us all in the name of righteousness.

He got my phone to speak to his family.

But, he video-recorded us stealing the food rations.

And, threatening to send it to the CM cell.

We can survive only if you take him away with you.

He beat up men in all the jails.
