Diya (தியா)

Ms. Tulasi!

Who is Ms. Tulasi here?

The doctor's calling you in.

Mr. Krishna!

Are you Mr. Krishna?

How old are you?

19 years old.

Is this the age to be doing this?

Give me your dad's phone number. -What happened, doctor?

She is pregnant.

What have you done!

You have brought shame to the family.

We trusted you and you end up doing this?

Is it for this my brother is financing your education?

If your mom comes to know, she will kill you!

Don't you know better than to stay away from such lowly people?

Who is lowly?

You didn't bring up your daughter well.

Trying to blame my son!

Did you hear what he said?

Listen up! Mind your words! -What do you mean "mind your words"?

We sent her here to get an education and look what you have done!

Had it been our town, that's it!

What can you do?

Was it only my son's fault? -Yes, it was his fault!

Keep your fights at home. This is a hospital.

'Who was it?'

'Who sowed you?'

'Who was it?'

'Who destroyed you?'

'Who was it?'

'Who wrote your fate?'

'Who was it?'

'Who erased you?'

'O fireling!'

'Who extinguished you?'

'O flower!'

'Who squashed you?'

'Who killed you before you even came to be?'

'O unborn child!'

'Endless sorrow...'

'...is the cycle of birth.'

'O my love...'

'Is that why you scattered away?'

'This doomed world is but a simmering hell.'

'O my beauty...'

'Is that why you melted away?'

'You withered away in the fire of your mother's womb.'

'O dear child!'

Five years later.

Please come in.

This is the first wedding in your family. Why such a simple affair?

What's the point of a lavish wedding?

We bought them a house with the money.

It is getting ready.

Are you all going to move in there? -No, sir!

It's for the young ones!

Will you invite us for the house warming?

There is a minor litigation issue. Case is in court.

I'm waiting for them to hand over the house.

Please come in first. Posing a lot of questions!

Aunty, pillows? -Inside.

No one is around!

I had been looking for you. -What are you doing?

Hey Krishna!

Grandma!

Always in a hurry!

One doesn't get to see you otherwise! -See me?

He's blushing!

Haven't slept yet? -Yeah, right! I will.

He's yapping not knowing my situation.

Mom! -What is it, son?

There are so many people around.

It was your dad's idea to make everyone stay at home instead of a hotel.

What about me?

Go upstairs and sleep.

First night?

Is this your 'first night'?

She looked gorgeous in this saree. -Yeah, she looked great.

Son!

Come and sleep in here.

Come on in, son!

With you? -Yeah!

Yes, dear boy! Come on in!

You did a great job!

What's the hurry? Stay a couple more days!

Two more days?

Uncle, you could stay a little longer.

I'm going to Singapore tomorrow.

One has to manage the business.

I'm sure you know.

We will be back.

It's getting late. Let's go!

Come on, uncle! It's getting late. -Why are you in a hurry?

Mom. Take care.

So many people! When will they ever leave?

Hey, I'm not going anywhere.

Your father invites us only once in a blue moon.

I'm going to spend four days sightseeing Chennai.

Come here, Krishna!

This is for you! -What is it, dad?

Flight tickets for you and Tulasi. It has all the bookings for your honeymoon.

Enjoy these four days!

Only four days?

Four days!

Shimla.

What happened to you? -What happened?

You aren't happy! -Who said that?

No one has to say it.

It is quite obvious.

You look like you have been forced into this marriage.

Nothing of that sort.

Five years! I was not supposed to see or talk to you.

So many conditions!

I have been waiting for this day.

You look so sullen as if it is an arranged marriage.

You may have forgotten everything.

But I can't.

I can't forget anything.

We should have had a child by now.

She should have been five years old.

Pandian, aren't we going home?

Your dad asked me to take you to the new flat.

Krishna, have you landed?

Yes, dad.

I have some good news. -What is it, dad?

We have won the case involving our flat.

They have handed over the keys.

Really? That's very good.

You and Tulasi can move in to the new house.

We have arranged for all the things you both would need.

What about you? -Mom and I will come over this weekend.

Come in.

Be careful.

They have set up everything. It looks great.

Isn't this awesome?

It was dad!

He has saved up money little by little to build this house for us.

I was upset that he made our wedding a very simple affair.

But it was all for our good. Right?

Wow! What a view!

Who are you angry with? Me or my dad?

It wasn't my decision! You know that!

I felt so bad that day.

It was really hard for me.

But, thinking about the past isn't going to help.

Tulasi, I want you to be happy.

I'm ready to do anything for that.

God will bless us with not one but two children like Diya.

Life will get busy. We won't even have time to talk.

This is our time now.

I'm not ready to waste it.

They want us to be happy.

We got to be happy here. So cheer up!

This is our dream house. Diya will be born here soon.

She is going to be running and playing around the house.

'A soothing lullaby...'

'She seeks that thing you forgot to sing.'

'The one you didn't cuddle and coddle as the apple of your eye...'

'She is still a precious part of you.'

'A soothing lullaby...'

'She seeks that thing you forgot to sing.'

'Even without saying a word...'

'...she calls you 'mom' every moment.'

'That gentle smile you cast away...'

'...follows you wherever you go.'

'Bearing a question upon her heart...'

'...she looks up to you for the answer!'

'To speak her love for you...'

'...she needs not a life.'

'Just waiting, just gazing...'

'...she proclaims her love!'

'To catch your eye...'

'To touch your hand...'

'To shower you with kisses...'

'...she yearns away!'

'But, there is no way.'

'There are no words.'

'Is the forgotten pain, a thorn now?'

'Is silence, a word now?'

My boy...

Go and tell your father.

Tell him Moorthy is out on bail.

Tell him his life will no longer be peaceful.

He's the builder of this place.

I paid him the money he wanted.

He said the land value has risen and he had spent a lot.

He demanded another 25 lakhs for the registration.

I tried working it out, to no avail.

So I filed a complaint with the police and sued him.

Let it go. Don't worry about this.

I'll tell the Assistant Commissioner about this. He'll handle it.

Why go through this again? Just pay him what he wants.

And then what?

If everyone were to fear him like this and pay him what he wants...

...he'll keep cheating them and get rich.

I'll take care of it.

Why deal with this again? -It's okay...

Hello, uncle!

Hello! Come on in!
