God bless

Fishes..Fishes..

Please buy some

What are available today?

Lots of Sardines! Carps too

Shall I give some?

Not today

- Good morning - Good morning

Spoiled? - Eh!

We got acquainted just this morning

So I couldn't ask

You please ask

Fishes..Fishes..

Milk is just arriving

Since it is your milk, there is one benefit!

Got to boil a little to add tea dust and sugar

cause you would have already added water

What a joke so early this morning!

If you find it difficult, get Milk and Water separately

I will do the mixing

Hold this

Buddy, Where is Rajesh?

Who knows?

Can he come without putting her on the bus to Palakkad?

Damodara!-Yes

Quiet unusual! Tea being served outside!

Who is that? Can't see him well

I see! So with this poor eyesight the astrological forecasts you write about are all lies!

He is our Manikyan

Odiyan(Sorcerer) Manikyan!

Yeah

Well, the Odiyan of our folklores has returned safely!

Those who haven't seen a live Odiyan

There he is seated! Acomplete Odiyan!!

A swam a

Not just tea

Serve some Dosas also to fill himself up

Shouldn't he have some vigour while doing Odi!

A curse!

Don't talk that way, Ezhuttachan!

Hasn't the Dare devil during your yesteryears in Thenkurusi returned after an exile?

Rather welcoming the great man with a red carpet ls it fairto call him a curse, Ezhuthachan?

Unnikrishna, Don't ask for trouble

While you walk home alone after drinks in the night is the time when Odiyan will settle his score

- Who? Him? - Shut up

Comrade! I guess he didn't like you saying that

He doesn't mind if Damodaran offends or pours hot water on his face!

Because he is his old classmate

Both of were like jackfruit and fly once!

Ezhuttacha! -Yes

Are you also joining these kids?

Poorfellow has returned after a long wander

hoping for a little peace in his hometown!

PeaceH

Wasn't he the one who shattered the Peace of this hometown once?

- In one kick.. - No dude

He will be finished!

Why dol needlessly stink my legs?

Ezhuthachha, take some hot waterfrom Damodaran's shop and pour it on his face!

Let the drooping head raise a little

Make a tea, Unnikrishna!

If you are desperate for hot water

To fulfill your desperation twice a week you do go to her house

That Sarojini's

Go and ask over there

Any time you could get real Hot water

He is the topic ofthe town now!

Now it will be more interesting

An old friend of your Uncle!

Friend?

Yes

This is Odiyan

Odiyan Manikyan

Have only heard!

Never expected I would get to see

Now that I happen to have seen you,

How can I leave without giving anything?

To counter this shame, we do need some rites to be done

There is a way, Ezhuthachhan

Let's see in the brain ofthe last of the Kelakkam Family what is it that is getting created?

Come on, tell Rakesh! Only you will come up with that Million Dollar idea! You say.

Let him

Tell this toothless Odiyan to frighten any one of us slightly using his Odi tricks!

In case he is not willing

Let him go back right now

with a ride on a donkey...

Wasn't there a song of his times?

"Another Odiyan is send off to the forest"

"By Thenkurusi folks"

Anyway, that is a bit too much, Rakesh

Really?

Can this poor old man frighten fired up young guys like you?

We have grown old, sons.. Leave all that!

Brother Damodaran, No sentiments please

What our Captain demands must happen

Ask him to frighten any one of us!

We can walk alone anywhere any night

Let's see if he could frighten a bit at least

Lets watch - the Last Odiyan Act!

So, adamant about it!

Yes

I've a small doubt

When it comes to a challenge, there should a bets on either sides!

In case if he wins,

Then he will be the Super Hero of Thenkurussi

In our area,

We'll erect a bronze statue of his!

Enough..That is enough

ls that necessary?

Absolutely, Ezhutachan

Possible for it add to some thrill!

Playing with Gen Next!

Hope you heard

Cause a little fear

on the person you choose

at your convenient time

ls it acceptable, Odiyan?

No way

Speak out

Accepted

The Odi will be on

HIM

My Muthappa (protector)!

OOps!

Before the Odi is done, never reveal to anyone is the rule

Father, Mother or even to Wife!

I'm helpless! It's my last reson!

This is a Sorcerer's story.

An epic story ofthe King of the Night

Tricking enemies, that is, by disguising as animals,

frightening them were these Sorcerers.

People who traditionally took contracts to frighten people

Dark disguises, loneliness, darkness and

immaculate timing were these Sorcerers' props.

Those nights, when no electricity and silence existed,

on the scary, lonely ridges amidst the fields

they waited covered under dark cloaks, for their enemies.

Thenjump out and land on four legs in front of them.

The prey under the spell of a sudden attack of bull or buffalo would fall scared.

There were many folklores like,

Obtaining Oil from the killed human fetus and applying on their ear lobes,

gave them powers to assume forms or shapes that they desired to be.

There was a time when the entire village used to be scared of these Sorcerers..

Those ages have now gone by.

With the arrival of electricity and disappearance of quietness,

the Sorcerers, announced self retirement and left the stage.

Many oftheirfuture generations looked at the antics oftheir forefathers with shame.

Many among them left these lands

Howevertill this movie ends, in a village called Thenkurissi,

this story is about one man who would be donning the role of a Sorcerer.

One quiet night, stealthily this Odiyan(Sorcerer) had left Thenkurissi.

After 15 years, having wandered, meandered and drifted through various lands,

to this well familiar and cryptic dark Thenkurisi,

he has just returned last night

This is his story

The story of the last and smart Sorcerer on this earth.

Notice"

The stage is set, Friends

Now is the Sorcerer's game..

Dude Rajesh, why are you sitting like this?

Dude Rajesh, why are you sitting like this?

Today is your day, man.

You need to buy us a drink.

The great Odiyan is going to be defeated by you.

We need to trap him.

A swam a

Yourfriend will have a bad time for sure.

That bad time will take him along.

You haven't grown enough to write Manikyan's horoscope.

You don't need to laugh that much.

Also, don't underestimate the guy who has just left.

Hey Damodaretta, are you also scared?

Has Manikyan tricked you too, for you to get scared like this?

Hey Mano],

if you want to hearthe stories of Manikyan's tricks,

go home right now and ask your dad.

But Vasu still poops when he talks about it.

Anyway, it's good that you were born before that.

Damodara just find out about that Odi

Mind yourjob man!

Damodara, You tell me, what did Manikyan do to Vasu uncle?

Rajesh, you leave him and come here, dude.

I always felt that shouldn't have been done.

What's the use of regretting later?

Along with some comrades from Kinasseri,

lwas sitting nearthat old iron bridge.

I was then very excited about changing the whole world.

It was then, that he came that way drinking, dancing and singing.

This is the Odiyan I had told you about.

The curse of Thenkurissi,

The poison, who exploits the superstitions of the village.

Consider it as rush of blood of youth.

Also, the severe influence of communism on me
