With 96 percent, in the 12th standard board exam,

let's welcome on stage, our student, D. Ragavan

to receive a gold medal for securing a centum in Computer Science.

Congrats!

He's my son!

That…

Bro, I want you to tell me exactly what happens there. Got it?

All the best! All the best!

- I'll see you later. - Alright, bye, Monica. I'll see you.

- Anjana. - Hi, Ragavan!

I got a gold medal in Computer Science.

Superb!

I've secured a seat at AGS Engineering College.

Wow!

I'm planning to do my master's in the US.

Lovely!

I'm planning to get a job, a green card, marry and settle there.

I see! Don't forget me after you get married.

Forget you?

You are the one I'm planning to marry!

What do you mean?

I love you, Anjana!

Not just recently,

but since the ninth standard.

I always wanted to propose to you after getting a gold medal.

So, here I am.

See…

Ragavan, I don't think we'll work out.

Why not?

What do I lack?

- Is it my looks? - No, no.

It's not that.

- Forget about it. - Tell me! I want to know.

Ragavan, you're such a wonderful person.

- But… - Hey, Rambo! What kind of girl…

- I like Rambo. - Me?

I like blonde hair.

You two would look

- great if you go blonde. - You like him?

- Really? - Yeah?!

Anjana, he failed in three subjects.

He smokes!

He's a bad boy, Anjana!

Oh!

Actually, I love bad boys.

It would be so cool to have a boyfriend like that while attending college.

I'm sorry, Ragavan.

I'm sure you'll have a successful future.

Forget it, bro.

There are so many girls out there.

We're going to college soon.

We'll find someone there.

Tell me, Anbu.

They always said girls like boys

who are good and studious.

Isn't that an outright lie, then?

It is, bro.

Let's turn into bad boys.

Okay, done.

We'll enter college with swag and a fire name!

There's zero fire in the name "D. Ragavan."

That Ramesh Bopalasamy struts around, calling himself "Rambo."

Why can't I find a cool name?

Wait, wait. Hang on.

D. Ragavan is your boring name.

Just like how she ditched you, let's ditch '"ava" from your name.

Replace it with "o," and you become fire. Let's go!

What is it, dear?

Why am I doing a master's in AI, Dad?

- It's so boring. - Come on, dear.

Shouldn't you embrace futuristic thinking in your life?

Ten years down the line, everything will be AI.

Whatever. Come home for the weekend. Let's start painting our new home.

- Okay, love you, bye, Dad. - Okay, dear. Love you!

- Hi, I'm Gayathri, IT department. - Okay, I'm in IT too.

Oh.

- Are you also in IT? - Hi!

- I'm Vetri. I'm in IT as well. - Hi.

Hi!

- Hi. - You're right.

Now I request our principal, Mr. Mayilvahanan sir,

to address the gathering.

AGS is a donation-free college.

Only those who worked hard in the 12th grade

and secured 95 percent or above can get a seat in this college.

All of you,

who worked hard

and are here after scoring more than 95 percent…

Colleges usually impose restrictions

on girls and boys talking or forming friendships.

But this college has no such rules.

You can talk to each other.

You can be friendly.

Falling in love is allowed too.

Marriage is permitted too.

Because I believe…

college is not just a place to build your career.

It is also a place to build your friendship

and healthy relationships.

All hail the principal!

Coming to the point.

Typically, on Fresher's Day,

colleges talk about their successful alumni.

Because that's the inspiring story.

But I'm not going to do that.

I'm going to talk about one of the biggest failures

to graduate from this college.

You know why?

Why?

Hearing his story

is a cautionary tale

of what not to become.

He entered securing 96 percent.

And left this college with 48 arrears.

That failure is…

Drag, drag, drag, Dragon!

Drag, drag, drag, Dragon!

Hey!

How dare you touch me for looking at the girls, rascal?

Where's Dragon?

Beat everyone up!

Dragon!

Hey, where are you running to?

How is it?

Damn, those curves are killing me!

Idiot. How's the tattoo?

Oh! It's alright.

When are you planning to tattoo my name?

- You wish! - Why not?

I can't remove it if I end up with another girl.

Hey! How dare you?

- You'll break up with me? - No, no. I won't!

If you dare to break up with me…

- I'll kill you! - Hey!

Dragon!

Dragon…

What is it, Pambu?

Guys from other colleges are teasing our girls.

They're attacking Anbu for standing up to them.

And here you are, busy being romantic. Come down, you jerk!

Ragavan… Don't go. You already have enough cases against you.

One more mistake and the principal will surely suspend you.

To hell with that guy!

You know how much my boys mean to me.

Dragon!

Oh, yeah!

- Get lost! - Hey, buddy!

Scoundrel!

Who the hell are you, man?

How dare you beat up our boys?

I'll break your bones.

Hey!

You're crossing the line, man!

Ragavan, this is too much.

I'll inform the higher-ups and get you dismissed!

- Sorry, sir. I mistook you for a student. - Do I look like a student to you?

Really? Getting hit by this guy?

Round him up, boys!

He's toying with the fire extinguisher, bro.

Then snatch it from him.

Making a scene with that?

Caught you now! Give it back to him, boys!

Keep it!

He's trying to escape.

Pick up the pace.

Hurry! Get up!

- Juice. - Have it.

- He's happily drinking juice over there. - Hey, Dragon! They are coming!

Catch him!

Hey!

Hey!

Can't believe a twig like you made us run for our lives!

I'll chop you to bits.

Hey…

- Does it burn? - Hey! It does.

- It burns. It's hot. - It will if you tease girls.

Yes, it burns.

- Hey! - Get lost.

Run, run. Get lost!

"The fundamental points of the…"

Studying even during the culturals? Moron!

He won't spare us at all!

All of you are…

What are you all doing here during class hours?

Get back to your classes.

Hey. I had suspended you.

- Go home. - Okay.

- Hey, wait. - Wait!

Don't act smart!

Sir, we fought too.

You warn us, but suspend him? Why the bias?

I've given him enough warnings.

Let me ask you something. What's your attendance percentage?

- Seventy percent, sir. - His is only two percent.

Do you think he'll excel if I let him in?

He won't even step out of that hostel.

What do you do there anyway?

Sir, he has 43 arrears to clear.

He studies there, sir.

Impossible!
