Aarkkariyam (ആർക്കറിയാം)

Sherley can sleep peacefully in any kind of tension.

Maybe because she's a staunch believer in God.

I'm a believer too.

But I don't believe in God enough

to hand over all my problems to Him, and sleep peacefully.

In fact, what Chaachan says is right.

You shouldn't worry about things beyond your control.

But when one is about shut shop due to debt,

how can one get sleep?

Hello Chaacha...

Hi dear... Our KC Joseph sir passed away.

Oh no! What happened?

I came to know from the newspaper.

I need to go there to know more details.

It's quite far, right?

Many people would come there.

It's risky for people who are old, Dad.

Is that really necessary?

There aren't many infected here.

Joseph sir had given a surety for our farm loan.

I need to meet Jacobkutty and tell him.

Otherwise, they might get scared if they get a legal notice or something.

I'll meet him, tell him about this and come back.

When are you coming?

Where's Roy?

Royichayan is sleeping.

We have a lot of work to complete.

And there's a lot of packing to be done.

And a couple of things have to be settled in the office too.

We might be able to leave on the 17th.

If you leave on 17th, you'll reach here on 19th.

You'll leave at dawn, right?

There won't be much traffic because of the current situation.

We can't say anything in this present situation, Dad.

Everything will happen as per God's will.

Stop it. Go away!

Hey! Don't trouble me!

Hey!

Hey!

Stop it!

Hey Sundaran...

Why are you troubling him?

You asked me to come to buy fish?

I thought you were fasting?

I am breaking the fast, Chandran.

The pandemic is on, right?

And the children are coming too.

Sundaran!

Sundaran, you are here?

I looked for you everywhere.

Hey!

Sheeja is calling you, right? Go.

Sherley will reach on 19th.

- Sheeja! - Coming, Mom!

- What about Sophie? - She will also come.

The house will become lively then.

- Is the Mackerel fresh, Chandran? - I'll be a little late.

The Kili fish is more fresh.

Okay. Give me half a kilo.

Thank you.

Got it?

Shaji was saying...

... that we should take all our documents.

It's a big bunch.

We'll have to search through the entire thing.

Sit, no?

Do we have the papers of our apartment in Andheri with us?

That's with Shiny. She's doing the rent collection and stuff, right?

Did you tell Shiny that we're leaving?

No point saying that she's this sister of mine.

It's really difficult to say something to her now.

Melissa is her current best friend, right?

She shouted at me the other day saying that I caused my own divorce.

Until a sale happens, we don't really need any of those papers.

And I think it's still in Papa's name.

Oops! It's 9 o'clock already?

I had told Sophie that I'd call her.

When I opened my eyes, there were people all around me.

I felt really ashamed.

I closed my eyes again.

Hi Momma!

Angela went home yesterday. Her Daddy had come.

What about Merin?

Merin is here. Merin's parents couldn't come.

They've stopped all the flights, right?

How do you know all this?

It was on the news!

We saw it on TV at the recreation room in the evening.

When are you coming?

We might be able to leave on Tuesday.

If you leave on Tuesday, when will you reach here?

If we're able to reach Chaachan's place by Thursday,

we'll be there on Friday.

What did you eat in the morning?

Dosa, Sambar, Chickpeas Chutney.

And some fish pickle by Sister Alphonsa.

- Where's Royichan? - Here.

- Hello! - Royichan! What are you eating?

I am also having Dosa.

But it's coconut chutney here.

Is it Ankita Aunty?

No. It's Santa Claus!

It's Nair.

Pass the phone to Sister, dear. I need to talk to her.

Okay.

- Hello Sister. - Hi Sherley.

- How are you? - I am fine. How are you?

- Have you decided when you're coming? - No. I....

- Nair, come in. - No. I'm not coming inside.

There's a problem.

- From the Customs, or something else? - Customs, indeed.

The consignment is from China, right? That's the problem.

The order is to clear consignments with medical invoices only.

Whose order?

There are no written orders, sir. It's an oral instruction.

Around 400 containers are stuck there already.

It's not so easy.

Say something positive, no Nair?

If it isn't released now, Vyshak will also be in trouble.

He had told me.

You do something, sir. Give me Five Lakhs.

We'll sort it out.

But Vyshak said Three? Didn't he?

That won't be enough, sir. We need to pay everyone, right?

It's a little risky.

- Is it this one? - No.

- Do you want this one? - No. Not that one.

I'll bring some hair buns then. You had forgotten to take these last time.

I don't need all that, Momma.

Then which one is it? I don't get it. Is it this one?

Not that, Momma.

It is heart-shaped. Check in the other box.

Not that one.

Check below that.

It has small pearls.

Here's the heart.

- This one, right? - Yes. Don't forget to bring that.

No.

Say thanks to Sister.

- I'll call you tomorrow. - Bye.

How many days do you need, Nair?

It's the 15th today.

I'll get it released by 25th. Is that fine?

As early as possible.

Okay then.

You gave him money?

He said he'll get it released by 25th.

What are you looking at?

If there was no corruption,

the Government wouldn't have allowed anything at all to happen.

Oh no!

Why is the Kanji's (gruel) colour so weird?

The rice turns into that colour when boiled.

I had washed it four times.

You wouldn't have washed it properly.

What do we do now?

No. That's the colour of the rice.

You should have seen the colour on my hand when I washed it.

Why?

Have they added artificial colour to the rice?

Maybe! Who knows!

They can increase the price, right?

Couldn't you wash it properly?

What do I do now?

It's all right. It's for lunch, right?

It will be all right once you drain the water out.

It got late by the time I finished cutting the fish.

If I don't keep it on the stove now, by one o'clock...

Your diabetic Sir wouldn't be able to eat by one o'clock then, right?

When did you start coming here?

Annamma died in '88.

Sherley was 8 years old then.

Ever since then,

I made the rice and curry,

packed it and sent her to school,

took classes at the top of my voice,

and took care of all these plantations promptly.

And you're teaching me about time management?

Look!

You had the time to chip it and eat it.

If you keep chipping like this, it will come off when you grate it.

I come here for Sherley Chechi's sake.

If you're shouting so much, I'm not coming from tomorrow.

No. You needn't come.

Come only if you really wish to come.

I have other jobs to do!

Do it yourself!

Damn it!

'These nights, this weather, this river bank,

... this gentle breeze'

It's been long since Vasanthi stopped coming.

Now I am the Vasanthi here.

That's what!

Washing these clothes and dishes is a never ending job.

Yeah!

There are many cases there too, apparently.

Around 8 cases, I guess.

Yeah.

- You don't need this now, right? - Yeah.

Just a second.
