But don't try to make it a text book
KiIIer's history
That too is a text book
So cIever
Kannavam forest division one day in June 1995
Who are you man?
Are you a wiId hare that can't be trapped?
You know
EIse you wouIdn't have made a futiIe attempt to escape
Your comrade Adhigiri now nicknamed as Choukidar...
...is protected by you in a hide out known onIy to you
In a pIace that you onIy know in the forest
He is fighting against the state
Foryears we are after that criminaI
He started in Jarkhand
Afterwards he was in Orissa and WarrangaI
Now from the tribaI viIIages of KeraIa he has started attacking viIIages
And he is protected by fooIs Iike you
TeII me where is Choukidar now?
Come out boy
EIse we wouId cIobberyou
Sir, I don't know where he is
Wisdom dawned even on a faII guy
But it turned out to be wicked
ExpIain eIaborateIy to this taiI wagging dog
Have you heard sir?
You are protecting a big criminaI hunted by the poIice
If you show his hide out you wouId be aIive
EIse you might know what happened to others
In this entire worId you onIy know his hide out
Come out man
Where is Choukidar?
Why did he come to your viIIage in the forest?
Answer the question
We are men in uniform Don't think we're your comrades
YourfIesh wouId hurt
You son of a
From a bIood fiIIed pIace we came to a viIIage
''The foIk in dire straits''
''In comes the protector''
''PeopIe struggIe in the sea of miseries''
''Here comes the saviour''
''Our cIan and coIour is common''
''He is here to make our dreams come true''
''He is ourfaith, hope and door to peace''
''Our onIy resort''
''Like the greenery, hiII, river and sky''
''He is our sheIter''
''Like the hiII, river and sky He is our sheIter''
''WeIcoming the red rays that bIoom at the twiIight''
''We came to combat''
''WeIcoming the red rays that bIoom at the twiIight''
''We came to combat''
''HoIding nectar in the paIm cone...''
''...has the tempIe dancer come to combat KaIi at the tempIe''
''To dance, to wage war and protect its dear peopIe''
''Those who entered the forest broke our hearts''
''Those who feII with broken hearts...''
''...turned as red fIags''
''The foIk in dire straits''
''In comes the protector''
''PeopIe struggIe in the sea of miseries''
''Here comes the saviour''

This is a song for resurrection
Asong by a guy who prepares a feast forthe hungry
Notjust for our viIIage
This Choukidar is the protector for many viIIages
Not mereIy Iistening to the song
We must aIso imbibe what was said in the song
Foryears we were spurned on the basis of caste and coIour
AtIeast now our society shouId be enIightened
On the pretext of our deveIopment those in authorities fiII their coffers
Choukidar wants us to at Ieast raise a finger against them
Brothers! Just as they Iive comfortabIy...
...we aIso have the rights to Iive with comforts
Don't think it is a Ioaf of bread given to us by somebody's generosity
As human beings it is our birthright
No matter how many times we weed them out...
...these communists wouId again sprout
Where is he?
Your Choukidar who professes through songs
I don't know
I know how to make you spiII out...come
Make him get in
- Sir, nuruva siIppo -What?
Nuruva siIppo
Comrade, what is nuruva siIppo?
Code word taught by comrade John
In times Iike this, this is best
I couIdn't foIIow
It is a reverse angram
Nuruva siIppo means 'PoIice is coming'
Very good
You are the reaI comrade
Sometimes we may have to reverse even words to escape
Sir, foryour escape

Choukidar may be a Ram in one perception
But in another perception he is Iike Ravanan
We must be carefuI
Is he so dangerous?
Not mereIy at the foot of the hiIIs
In the entire nation...
Choukidar is pIanting the seeds of revoIution through songs
But how did he manage to enterthis forest sneakiIy?
NormaI eyes are not sufficient
You need a third eye to Iocate him
- What happened? - It's a tyre puncture
Come on, hide
Second day
WiId dogs protest methods, damn it
Are you ThaIakkaI Chandu?
Is your commander Pazhassiraja?
24 hours have gone past since we started questioning
TeII us at Ieast now Where is he in thejungIe?
-Your Choukidar - Leave me, sir
He is a good man
How dare you say that?
TeII us, kiIIing 3 of us on that day...
Where did he go?
Sir, don't you know that? ShouId I repeat it?
How much did you get?
Lot, but not for you
- Give me IittIe - Extend your hands
Just a handfuI
Search
Hey
Choukidar
Like you I don't fight from behind
Straight forward
Choukidar Saviour of the viIIage
I have come to your viIIage repeatedIy
If you have courage come out
Come before me
Come

If one stands he must waIk
If one faIIs he must die
