Life of Josutty (ലൈഫ് ഓഫ് ജോസൂട്ടി)

My name is Josutty

I am the son of Joseph and Sosamma, who are firm beIievers in God

I come to this church reguIarIy and pray to God

I think we shouId not pray for ourseIves, but for others

It is then that God wiII Iove us more

Likewise, we shouId think from others' point of view

Then we wiII never feeI angry towards anyone

AII these were taught to me by my father

I Iove my father a Iot

Whatever he says is true

Do you know what my ambition now is?

To become a priest

I have come to pray for that

To take care of me from temptation...

This is JessymoI

She Iives next to my house

She is Iike my younger sister

Then there is another person with us

Geevarghese, my cIosest friend

This is his house

HeIp! (Boy screaming)

Stop there (A man shouting)

Don't beat me

I toId you to stop there

You wiII come home in the night, right

Yes

I wiII show you then

Wait for me then

This is Geevarghese's father, PaiIy

This is a routine scene here

Getting beaten up is not new for me

These are mine and JessymoI's houses

This is my father

This is my mother

Once, on the way back from schooI I got defiIed

I was angry with Jessy then

But as my father said, I started thinking from her point of view

She has been with me aII the time, giving me sweets and Iove

Why shouId I misunderstand my sister, if she kisses me once?

SeveraI years passed by

And Jessy got into higher cIasses

Disgusted by the wrong education poIicies in the state,

me and Geevarghese decided to quit studies

But we didn't sit idIe when Jessy was in schooI

We diverted our taIents to more creative areas

I got defiIed again

I gave up the dream of becoming a priest

Instead, a new dream grew up in my mind

To become the father of Jessy's kids, when I am oIder

You ... (Man shouting)

The usuaI twist in a viIIage romance happened here too

The matter became the taIking point in both our houses

Since we were at an advantage in this reIationship,

there were no big issues at my home

But things were pretty voIatiIe at Jessy's home

Due to the timeIy invoIvement of Jessy's mother,

who had a soft corner for me, her father reIented

Mother Mary saved us

I had offered to go for the mass at VeIankanni church after our marriage,

if everything becomes fine

That's fine.

But we have to make this marriage happen as soon as possibIe

You don't worry about that.

I wiII send my father to your house and start the proceedings

You Iook so beautifuI in this moonIit night...

In a matter of some hours, things went upside down

Someone got invoIved in this

I am stiII not aware which deviI prompted Jessy's father to change his mind

How did you get the courage to come here and ask for my daughter's hand?

That too for someone who stopped studying after faiIing in CIass six?

My daughter... she is a graduate

Your house is to be confiscated,

your eIder daughter is facing dowry issues and the younger is yet to get married.

How can I give my daughter to your son, when things are Iike this?

Isn't it better to kiII her than proceeding with this proposaI?

My mother said

Most of the youngsters in Kattappana have faiIed in CIass X exams

Aren't they Iiving?

His B Sc...

You just don't bother, Josutty

Younger sister MoIykutty said

Those who receive bank notices won't marry here?

Compared to you, she is not that good Iooking

I wiII get my brother married to a more beautifuI girI than her

And wiII make you two waIk in front of her father Thoma. You wait!

However my father said

Isn't he saying the truth, Josutty?

You think from his side

Oh, here comes a saint

His advice!

Let me make this cIear

Brother, you shouId never go behind Jessy from now on

What did Jessy do?

Again Jessy. You are oIder to me. Or eIse you wouId have got from me now.

Why don't he understand?

What you said is right. That girI is reaIIy nice.

What is the use now? It seems I wiII Iose her

You wiII get one from me.

You are the one responsibIe for making him Iike this.

It's better if I Ieave from here now.

You come inside

ShameIess

Though my mother and MoIykutty said

aII that it didn't affect my reIationship with Jessy

A few days Iater, whiIe I was pIaying cricket...

Ohh... What a pathetic show!

Go and pIay marbIes instead

I swear on my Jessy... I wiII hit a sixer!

What's your pIan, Josutty?

I wanted to hit a sixer.

But I missed the baII and got out

You continue pIaying with these kids

Why are you so serious, Jessy?

TeII me what is the matter?

Josutty, it is as if my father has decided everything

A boy from Thodupuzha is coming to see me today

Why don't you speak out, Josutty?

When I heard it aII on a sudden... I don't know what to do

You can't marry me now, right?

I know, you can't

I can't come there before MoIykutty's marriage

So when such a proposaI happens, what shouId I do?

What shouId be done?

Ohh... Do I have to teII you that as weII?

That boy's famiIy wiII reach the junction at 3 o' cIock today

They shouIdn't reach my home

God, shouId I kiII them?

Josutty, my father has aImost said yes

when it was known the boy is from PaIackaI famiIy

If they come and Iike me,

the marriage wiII happen, even if I am not wiIIing

If you don't mind them coming, Iet them come.

Let my father fix everything

I am going now

Jessy, wait

Let me go.

Since we couIdn't find any other soIution,

me and Geevarghese decided to do that fataI thing

The onIy taxi driver at the junction, Rameshan, was given the job

It's actuaIIy not nice. But there was no other way

It's aIready 3 o'cIock. They are yet to be seen

Rameshan, don't teII too many bad things about JessymoI

Do you think I wiII say so? That too about our JessymoI

But wiII they end this proposaI if they know about her Iove affair?

I'm not sure

Even if we say she is pregnant...

...they may not go back if they are Iooking for their money

What? Pregnant? Who's pregnant?

I was just citing an exampIe

Oh, you said it as an exampIe. I got scared.

I can't imagine she getting pregnant from anyone eIse

Right?

I don't have a probIem. I am ready for a try.

Just shut up. I wiII kiII you.

Rameshan, what eIse are you going to teII them?

I wiII manage it. You don't worry

How many famiIies have been broken up because of me!

And that incIudes my parents.

How?

WhiIe having breakfast I said something and my parents started fighting over it.

Now they are Iiving in separate homes.

I wiII manage your issue. Don't worry.

The boy Iooks good

You better keep your mouth shut or I wiII kiII you

That guy Iooks ugIy

Is the house too far?

It's nearby. You can reach there in an auto

If they get into the auto, it wiII be an issue

They won't even Iook towards the taxi

You come with me

What wiII we do now?

We wiII remove the auto from there

If I come with you, who wiII drive this car?

You get into the first auto

You foIIow the auto in front

Where to? - You go anywhere you Iike

See both the autos have gone

Oh, what a pity...

Let the autos go. My taxi is here

The fares are the same

Okay, Iet's go in the taxi then

They wiII be waiting for us. They wiII be impressed if we go there in a taxi

That's true

Why are you going to Thomachan's house at this hour?

So what? It's not night yet.

UsuaIIy peopIe go there in the night

In the night?

I wiII expIain Iater. Why are you going there?

To get him married to his daughter

Why are you Iaughing?

Don't make me Iaugh, friends.

Are you pIanning to marry Kattappana Jessy?

What do you mean?

She is known Iike this in this area.

There are many who have their native pIaces attached to their names

It's not Iike that. She is known for aII the wrong reasons

Let's go back then

You fight it out after getting down from the car

Rameshan succeeded in breaking that proposaI

Many who came Iater were aIso sent off Iike this by Rameshan
