Tej I Love You (తేజ్... I Love You)

Damn!

I'm in trouble.

Listen. My car broke down on the way.

Are you out of your mind?

You've got a London flight to catch tomorrow. And you're visiting temples offering prayers.

Where are you right now?

I think there's a railway station close by.

I see a boy coming. Let me find out.

Okay, Lakshmi. Come back home safely. - All right. Bye then.

Excuse me...

Is there a railway station nearby?

Yeah, aunty.

Can you drop me there? - Sure. Hop on.

This is a shortcut, aunty. - I see.

Where do you live, boy?

Where are you coming from?

I live in a village nearby. I come here for tuition.

Oh... What do your parents do?

My parents passed away in an accident.

Oh... Sorry, dear.

Mention not, aunty.

My aunt and uncle take good care of me.

You're so lucky.

All my uncles, aunts and cousins love me dearly.

That's great.

Hey, man! Look how hot she is.

Wow, man! - Dear, turn around. Let's leave.

Let's get her. - Hey! Hey, stop!

Pedal faster, boy. Go fast.

Stop the cycle, kid!

I said stop! - Pedal faster.

Stop the cycle. You leave, kiddo.

Leave me! Let go!

Hey, come on! - Hey! Let go of her!

Help! Help! - Being arrogant, huh?

Aunty, you run.

Aunty, escape from here. - Don't do that. Stop!

Aunty, leave!

Aunty, I said run!

Run away from here! Run! Run!

'Tej has killed a man!'

What the hell are you saying?

You've got a flight to London tomorrow.

And you want to reach out to that kid.

What's going on, Lakshmi?

I'll have sinned if I don't go.

He has saved my life.

He'll be imprisoned if I don't confess in court.

Lakshmi! We can't ruin our careers by appearing in court.

We've worked for a year to find a job in London.

You'll have to go to London.

I can be anywhere in the world but never find peace.

Please listen to me.

Let's do something for the kid.

All right. As you say.

You'll be returning from London in a week.

Find the boy's family and give them this cheque.

Yes, you're right.

You don't worry about it.

I'll take care of everything.

: Order! Order!

Despite mentioning the reason behind the kid's crime...

Due to the absence of justified witness...

Tej, a 10 year old native of Jagner...

Under Section 321, is sentenced to 7 years in jail.

He is hereby ordered to be shifted to a juvenile.

Sumitha! - Sister!

Aunty...!

Tej!

Aunty!

You don't have to cry, son.

You've made no mistake.

We are all here for you.

Just stay strong.

Hmm... - Sir!

What are you staring at?

That kid hasn't got parents.

He's my brother's son but I consider him my own.

I'm trying my best to bail him out.

But the odds are against us.

I request you to please look after him. - Why are you worked up about this?

He's no criminal. He's still a kid.

There's nothing to be worried about. I'll take good care of him.

Good to hear that. - You can leave now.

Tej! Tej! Tej!

What's up, man?

You danced so good. - Thanks, man.

Impressed with your performance, the HOD is here to meet you.

Hi, Tej! Congratulations! - Thank you so much, sir.

These are my friends from Hyderabad.

They sing in my uncle's band.

I also join them sometimes.

They were specially invited for our college event.

Hi, guys! Tomorrow is our 'Hostel Day'.

You should all be there.

Actually, sir... I was leaving to my hometown this evening.

But why? - It's my brother's birthday tomorrow.

Oh... Happy birthday in advance.

Thank you so much, sir. - And they are...

My elder sister, younger sister and cousins...

Hi!

Oh...

It's not just his birthday tomorrow. Our summer vacation also starts tomorrow.

No matter where our family is throughout the year...

We meet on this particular day. Our uncle makes sure we do.

Hey! Don't move!

: Stand still, will you?

You're still as naughty.

Welcome, love. - How are you, dad?

How's my son-in-law?

Come. How are you, dear? - I'm fine, mom.

Greetings, uncle.

Let's get in.

Looks like he owns the entire wealth.

They bought him this bike worth lakhs.

Even you own a part of that wealth, don't you?

Why didn't you question them?

No ball!

Latha, what's in the bag?

Nothing, aunty.

Make it fast. Come on.

Wow! Yum!

Take a look at this, uncle.

This is junk food.

You'll fall sick if you eat this.

You came all the way from Hyderabad to spoil them?

Shit!

He did it!

He does this all the time.

Tej!

What is it?

Did the rain startle you? - Hmm...

Mr. Prasad, wedding is in the morning.

Don't leave without blessing the couple.

Sure. Will do.

Greetings... - Greetings, sir...

Wake up, everyone!

The auspicious time is here.

Wake up!

Listen!

Huh? - You forgot the vermillion.

Brother! Brother! - Just wait.

Brother! We've been betrayed.

My daughter has eloped with someone.

What is he saying?

Have you gone mad?

What the hell are you saying?

She must be somewhere around. Look properly.

Three men entered our house at midnight.

She ran away with them.

Tej!

Tej!

Oh, Lord!

He's done all of this, brother.

The guy I know nothing about...

Tej got her married to that guy only.
