Ashwamedham (അശ്വമേധം)

Ashwamedham.

It is not the story that has been mentioned in the epics.

But the story of the evolution of a new era in human life.

The story of humans who are ready to make

a revolution in the society.

It's the story of a doctor and a patient

who stepped into the blindness

of hidebound to help those in distress

with the light of hope.

We request you to watch this movie

not for entertainment

but to take it into your heart

to think of this social issue

and to change your perspectives.

'ASHWAMEDHAM.'

Almighty!

My God!

Lakshmi.

Lakshmi, is it my mistake?

Then, is it my mistake?

It's not a mistake from our side.

God has blessed us, and we should receive it with happiness.

What an excuse!

You are trying to blame God for our acts.

You didn't permit me to undergo surgery during last delivery.

I won't let you do that.

I will never permit you for it.

Lakshmi, whatever happened has happened.

To avoid such a situation, I asked you to let me undergo surgery.

God!

She is saying it out of ignorance.

I will never do anything that is against my belief.

Hey! - Hey! - You!

Hey! Stop there.

Once you deliver this baby

we will try to avoid such a situation to happen.

You will avoid it, it seems! It is our tenth baby.

I can't take it anymore.

Dad! - Dad.. - See, dad.

Come here. - Get lost!

Don't shout!

They are simply creating noise.

Sarojam, you are matured enough to get married. Don't be childish.

Sarala, dad and mom are pampering him a lot!

We will teach you a lesson!

Even without considering the happiness of parenthood

how can you say that

you don't want to deliver babies anymore?

Think about the sorrow when we lost three babies.

Yes! But it was fate.

It is all the decision of the Almighty.

We have four daughters who are matured enough to get married.

To manage all these expenses, our elder son is working in Mumbai.

How can I face the children?

Whatever happened has happened.

Now, let's try to avoid such a situation to happen ever after.

Sister, he is coming.

Don't turn back. Let him come.

Mohanan is here.. Sister, Mohanan came.

Sarala, don't turn around. He is trying to fool us.

He wants to laugh at us.

Sister.. Mohanan came. - Get lost!

What should we do for it? - Should we welcome him?

We are ready to give him a warm welcome. - What?

It seems you have to do it soon.

Sorry, I thought

Sathyan was trying to fool me. - Mohanan.

She is ready to give you a warm welcome anytime. - You!

We should have to do it soon.

Come.

Why did you say so?

I want to marry you as early as possible.

That is why I said so.

Sathyan, get me a matchbox.

What will you give in return for the glad news?

Matchbox. - Matchbox..

Yes, match box. Sathyan.

Go and get me drinking water.

And you should draw it yourself from the well. Okay? - Okay.

Poor soul! You are unnecessarily troubling him.

What else can I do?

I came here to spend some time with you.

But he will be with me once I come here.

Didn't he go to school today? - It's Sunday.

Damn it! Why can't they take classes on Sunday's also?

Hey! Did you bring water?

I asked Sarala to get it.

I asked her to draw it from the well herself.

Oh! Is it? Then, better you stand

here next to me.

Sathyan, you got me a match box. But I don't have a cigarette.

How can I ask you to get a cigarette for me?

It's okay. I'll get it myself.

Even I will go home after that.

No.. I can get it for you. - Oh! Is it?

Good boy! I will give you money. You can buy

chocolates for the balance amount.

Hey! Don't run. Go slowly. Okay?

What if the roads are busy? Go slowly and carefully.

Okay? Slowly.. Go carefully.

Silly boy!

He likes you a lot.

Poor soul!

Did your parents agree with your decision to marry me?

I came to know that they will never agree with it.

Whatever happens, I will marry you.

I have decided it.

But.. - No doubt.

You should write a letter about it to your brother today itself.

I am ready to discuss it with your parents.

What do you say?

At any cost, I will never let you undergo surgery.

Self-control..

Who is going to undergo surgery?

What is the health issue?

What were you discussing?

Be seated, mister.

Lakshmi had.. - You!

All these should remain as our family secrets.

Who is going to undergo surgery?

Is it for you or your wife? - Not for us!

What is the health issue? Is it piles?

Nowadays surgery has become the solution

to cure almost all diseases.

It's not at all good practice.

No one is suffering from piles here.

Then, why are you planning to undergo surgery?

I feel shy even to tell about the surgery

which Lakshmi's wants to undergo.

Hey. Is it for you?

I can take care of it. - No! I am alright.

I have a skin allergy.

It's because I spread oil on my body. - No..

I think someone has done

a sorcery here. - Even I felt the same.

We are facing troubles back to back.

Mohanan from Perumpadam family wishes to marry Sarojam.

Even there a is problem with that proposal too.

His parents are not interested in proceeding with the proposal.

Say about a measure. - 3 litres.

Not that, randomly say a digit.

Okay. 12.

Fine. 12.

One plus two gives three.

Three minus one gives two.

It seems they will get married.

Your family will be blessed by a baby.

That is.. - Go on.

That is not for Sarojam. - Then?

It is for her mother.

I have something to say.

Why do you need our opinions?

Okay, what do you want to say?

I want you to let me marry Sarojam.

That is impossible!

Then I will have to marry in your absence.

Then, I will not give you any share in my property.

I am a man, Dad.

I can take care of my wife on my own.

Hey, Keshava Swami is a poor man. He has no money.

He has four daughters to get married.

Their elder son who works in Mumbai

is the sole bread earner of the family.

I don't need anything else other than her.

I will marry her no matter who opposes.

Is that your final decision?

Yes, it is.

Then, we are never going to support your marriage.

But it was my duty to ask my parents

before taking a decision.

I am going to fix my marriage

on the 21st of this month.

Since it is summer, this would be enough, right?

Yes, this is more than enough.

Dear! - Yes.

Not you. - Dear! - Yes, Dad.

I didn't call any of you.

Where is Sarojam? Ask her to serve the porridge.

Good.. We should eat first and then think about the rest.

Sarasu and Savithri came after knowing about the marriage. - Okay.

They used to stay with my brother-in-law. - Oh.

When all the kids gathered

this house has become so lively.

We are waiting for Sadanandan to come from Mumbai.

But since Mohan's parents are against this marriage

Sarojam is upset.

I will make them agree, Mr. Keshavan.

Look here.

Look at me!

I see obstacles hovering around her.

I will tie an amulet

in the waist string of Sarojam.

No need. - Hey, don't refuse.

We need to remove all the obstacles to the marriage.

Yes, we can do that..

In houses where girls of marriageable age are there

black magic is a common thing to get rid of obstacles.

A few days back, a young man approached me

with a request to help him attract a girl towards him.

He asked me if I could do it?
