Ammu (అమ్ము)

Ammu!

Are you really going to marry our neighbour, Mr. Ravi?

Yeah! Why?

Do you like him?

I think so.

Why do you like him?

I don't know. I just do.

Then why are you marrying him?

Why?

Do you want to marry him?

Me? No way!

What do you mean?

I find him very scary!

Why are you scared of him?

Did he say something to you?

No.

But the mere sight of him scares me.

He is so huge.

Whenever my friends and I play near his motorcycle...

he'd keep glaring at us.

And we'd just run away.

Are you not afraid, Ammu?

But you're rowdy yourself!

-Everyone should be scared of you! -Don't tickle me, Ammu.

Why would you be scared?

-Ammu, don't tickle me! -Ammu, what are you doing?

Look, you are wrinkling your saree!

Are you a child?

Everyone's waiting for you there, but here you are, playing!

-Come. -Mom...

What?

Is everything okay?

Everything is okay.

Come.

Come sit here, Ammu. Be comfortable.

You don't have to be formal with us.

It's not like we're meeting for the first time.

Be yourself.

This one time, I saw her quarreling with the water lorry guy.

She seemed like a brave girl!

But look at her now, all innocent.

I can hardly believe it's the same person.

No doubts, Mr. Subramaniam. It's the same brave girl.

They're giving you grades.

Those days are over, brother.

Now that she is becoming your daughter-in-law...

being obedient is good.

We've been neighbours all these years.

These two could have just fallen in love

-and spared us the trouble! -Isn't it?

That's our upbringing.

True.

Our kids have made us proud!

Ammu, he is stealing glances at you.

I know!

Ammu!

Why don't you stand next to Ravi?

Let's see how you look together!

-Go ahead, Ravi. -Dad.

Come on. Go ahead.

Go.

Hey...

What is it?

Hey!

Ammu, what happened?

Ammu...

What time do you need to go to work tomorrow?

I need to be there by 7:00 a.m.

Can't be late on my first day.

Eat breakfast before you go.

Okay.

What about lunch? Will you be coming home?

I can't.

Not during the first few days.

There must be restaurants around. I'll figure it out.

So tell me, will you be fine alone at home?

Don't remind me of that!

I'm scared as it is.

I have never been by myself my whole life.

Scared of what?

Who would dare to mess with the inspector's wife?

And what will the inspector do if someone messed with his wife?

I swear on my mother, I'll cut him in half.

Oh, my! My husband is a hero!

The three lions on our emblem represent morality, justice, and righteousness.

The invisible fourth lion is the policeman.

Superb!

Tell me. What do you want?

For what? The dialogue?

No. It's been a few days since we got married.

I thought I should buy you a gift.

Tell me what you want.

Take your own sweet time!

Sorry. I just remembered.

I gave my sewing machine to my mother before I came here.

I want a new sewing machine.

I thought you would ask for a teddy bear, chocolate or a saree!

This sounds expensive.

How badly do you want it?

You think I'm a child to ask for toys or a pacifier?

Yes.

Aren't you a child?

No!

What do you want a sewing machine for?

To earn.

What?

A man who lives off his wife's money is no man at all.

Why?

Does it make you a lesser man if I make some money?

I don't mind staying at home and living off your money!

But I promised your parents.

That I'd take good care of you.

As a man, it is my duty to fulfill all of my wife's needs.

So you will fulfill "all" my needs?

-Coffee... -So?

Not here.

What happened?

-Can I get you another? -No.

Music has blossomed as tunes

Gently brushing the lips with joy

Sweetness overflowing like honey

Deep down my heart

In these beautiful black eyes Are years of dreams pouring

Collided with the body at dawn

-Like a bright lightening -So much has changed.

You like it?

In this ripe age

-I do! -In these decorated footsteps

Hundreds of years of vows with me Stay together... forever

Beauty like a flower

Spread like a sandal paste

A knitted bond

Essence of Happiness

Reflects in the mirror

Feet danced to the tunes

I found something in the shower.

Isn't this yours?

It's not mine.

Not yours?

-And what did you do? -I told you!

She is Linny, our neighbour.

-She is a school teacher. -Hello.

Our new Circle Inspector, Ravindranath.

What were you and my mother discussing?

They are bored.

She asked when we're planning to have a baby.

I accept that they are bored.

-But what about you? -"But what about you?"

Heart laid out like a carpet

Gaze longing

Like a doorway

Hopes dancing

Like the waves

Every moment is a celebration

Dedicated to this bond

Tender age has become musical

Passing in a easy-breezy way

First months are becoming canopies

Time has frozen, filled with cuddles

Little smiles Never ending desires

Spreading like wealth Heart filled with joy

Beauty like a flower

Spread like a sandal paste

A knitted bond

In all these years, I've never seen anyone's wife bring them lunch.

Madam clearly loves you a lot.

May you both always be happy!

Madam...

a gift from sir.

A knitted bond

Essence of happiness

Reflects in the mirror

Feet danced to the tunes

I love you.

What happened?

I love you.

A surprise inspection?

Yes, sir.

It was one of our DIG's routine surprise inspections.

The CI had just left the station on some personal work.

The weapons room was left unlocked.

The FIR copies weren't organized.

One officer wasn't clean shaven.

The DIG waited for the CI to return and

personally handed him the suspension letter.

The CI, two SIs, and two constables...

were suspended and sent packing without second thought.

-Which station was it, sir? -None of your business!

Look what they've done to my daughter!

-Sir! -Sir!

Sit over there.

-What's the case? -Molestation case, sir.

We're just registering their complaint.

-Please sit. Look into this. -Okay, sir.

-Iqbal sir... -Sir?

Look what those mongrels

-have done to my daughter. -Ma'am.

If you had kept a close watch on your daughter's activities,

such a thing wouldn't have happened.

What's the point of crying now?
