"Living in search of prosperity."

"Will the barren land teem with mirages?"

'Ore Kadal'

"Filled up with emotions as the water of the blue ocean."

"I lost my state by relationships."

"A meadow"

"filled with sadness."

"Quenches the thirst"

"in my life daily."

"It never rests nor withers ever."

"It is a struggle"

"that never ends."

"Even the moon"

"has many wounds on it."

"Many dreams reside in the eyes."

"They will come true one day."

"Filled up with emotions as the water of the blue ocean."

"I lost my state by relationships."

I'll answer it.

Hello? This is Nathan.

'This is Srini. I have admitted ma'am at the hospital.'

'The doctor doubts that she'll survive.'

'She will enquire about you once she regains consciousness.'

'I couldn't find your phone number.'

'That is why, I couldn't inform you earlier.'

'Just visit her once. Don't ignore it.'

'She wishes to see everyone. Poor thing!'

I know.. - 'Please.' - ...understand my situation.

Take care of her. I'll call you later.

'The thing is..' - Okay?

What's the problem? - My aunt's condition has worsened it seems.

Do you have to go? - Should I?

No.

She will want to live a bit longer when she sees her loved ones.

We should not raise false hopes.

Don't go. Let her die peacefully.

Why can't you drive properly? - Lift him up..

Careful!

Who.. What happened? - Careful! - Wait, I'm coming.

Hello, this is Nathan.

'We are waiting for you.' - Srini, I told you, didn't I?

I'm very busy. I can't just come leaving everything.

What happened? What did the MD say?

Can we see him today? - 'I'm sorry. I couldn't talk to him.'

'We are in a tentative state.'

'People have come for inspection from the headquarters.'

I've been here for two days. I came here to meet him.

'He has to give an appointment, right? Such things are not easy.'

'Be patient.' - You make it sound so simple.

I have been patient for a year and a half without a job.

How long should I wait? - Sir, here's your tea.

I need to get some job.

Can you help me or not? Tell me that.

'I know your situation.'

'But I can't issue appointment orders on my own.'

'I think he will be free by tomorrow.'

'I'll talk to him and inform you.'

'Have faith. Everything will be fine.'

Okay. I'll wait. - 'Okay, bye.'

The child has been suffering from fever for two days.

I can take him to a doctor only if I have money.

'Try to manage with the medicines you have.'

It's all over. - 'You do know our situation, don't you, Deepti?'

When will you come here? - 'I haven't got an appointment yet.'

'He is making me wait. What did you do with the money I gave you?'

Dear, I have household expenses too. What should I do?

Whom can I ask for help in this city? - 'I can't come now.'

I'm completely broke. Try to make arrangements.

'Okay, I'll try.'

'Deepti, Hari is calling me. I'll call you later. Take care.' - Dear?

We have burdened you.

Yes, it is. If you had gone to a doctor when the fever began

it would have been easier.

My husband is in Bangalore. He said that he would come today.

But he hasn't come yet.

Bangalore? Is he working there?

No, he has gone there to attend an interview.

The company that he had been working earlier was shut down.

So, I got an opportunity to help you.

Here you go, sir. - Thank you.

The doctor needs a scan. - How many times more?

Here.

This is not a charity hospital. We need to pay here.

You leave now, sir. I'll take care.

We have burdened you a lot. - Yes, I have a lot of work to do.

Yes, ma'am. Tell me.

Hey, where's the drink that I ordered? - Sorry, sir.

Are you serving it for free? I do pay you for this, don't I?

How dare you serve local stuff.. - Excuse me, sir. Sorry, sir.

...when I had ordered imported alcohol!

You have spoilt our mood! - Did you do it on purpose? - Go now.

Okay, ma'am. - What's the problem?

Look who's here! - What sort of service do you have here?

What? - Are you trying to cheat the customers?

You could do some other business. - Behave yourself.

Hey, why should we respect you? - Does the truth make you angry?

Look here. - This is horrible. Taste this yourself.

Don't talk to the likes of her. - Out! Get out!

How dare you send us out! - We'll ruin you!

Come on.

They're being arrogant.. - Good morning, ma'am.

Let's demolish it..

Didn't you meet the minister today?

You said you were going to come today. That's why

I told him that I couldn't come today.

He was a bit angry.

What happened? You seem to be in deep thought.

Anything can happen to my aunt at any moment.

Oh!

Shouldn't I go? - No.

Life is better without relations.

I mean, there will be no problems.

I disowned everyone to be alone.

Why are you so disturbed then?

No, nothing like that.

I was thinking of something else.

A child is sick. I took him to the hospital.

Very good. Are you doing social service now?

I don't know. I don't believe in those things.

I know.

Social scientists like you don't care about the society.

The only thing important to you is your social research.

You have studied, achieved

earned money more than you could possibly want

and you have status and fame.

Are you fed up with them?

Is that why you do social service now?

But it has nothing to do with your principles.

I have no such thoughts. - Why did you help him then?

It is all a case study.

Millions of people are unemployed here.

Sixty percent of the unemployed are married.

The situation in the families of all those came before my eyes.

But one thing, the wives of the unemployed are sad.

They have doubts. Their faces are full of pain.

But this child's mother wasn't like that.

I could see a radiance in her face.

But that may change.

Is that so? You helped the child's mother, right?

Hey, I'm not a womaniser.

I need women to satisfy the lust of my body.

But there should be no emotional attachments in it.

I don't crave after every woman. That's not my style.

I helped the woman pitying her situation.

Poverty is the reason for her sufferings.

I'm writing a book about that poverty now.

Poverty cannot be abolished.

Poverty is not a choice.

The trip to Bangalore was just a waste of money.

We could have paid the monthly rent with that money.

I trusted Hari so much. He cheated me.

What to do? This is all my fate.

What's the use of a job so far?

Do you know how much I suffered without you?

Shall I get a job?

A job? In this city?

You know Ms. Chandrika who lives upstairs, don't you?

Her daughter's school has a vacancy for a teacher.

The salary would be useful for us.

Who will look after the child if you go to work? Me?

I'm wondering how to pay the rent this month.

Who knows when the owner will kick us out.

Okay, bye.

Sir?

Who's it?

It's me. You took my child to the hospital

when he was sick.

Oh. What's the matter?

Tell me, what's the matter?

Okay, come in.

Sit down.

How's your child now?

The fever has gone down. But he is very tired.

Medicines aren't enough. He needs good food.

He will be cured only if he eats healthy food.

You have to do another help for me.

I came here without knowing what to do.

We haven't paid the house rent for two months.

I have only these.

If you give me Rs. 5000 or Rs. 6000 for this..

This is not worth even Rs. 2000.

Women sell their jewellery with heavy hearts. Isn't that so?

I don't have any worries.

These jewels aren't enough for the money you ask.

And not only that, I have a lot of work to do.

I don't have time to sell these for money.

You said that your husband is out of work now, right?

Why don't you send him?

He does not know about this.

So I did not tell him.

I asked whether I can get a job

but he did not agree.

Money wouldn't come to you on its own, seeing your suffering.

I've no plans to start lending money. I'll tell you if I do.

You can return it after your husband gets a job.

I'll return it once he gets his first salary.

Let him get a job first. We'll see about it then.

He will definitely get a job soon.

Praying to God for a job isn't enough.

You should search for a job.
