'Antics Of Time'

'Bharathiyar, Boys Higher Secondary School, Madurai - 2'

'Write down this formula'

It's zero

Not zero, 6

Hey! Don't cheat

Why are you fooling me?

I saw the page number

'Only if you concentrate, you can become a doctor or an engineer'

If you continue like this...

...you can only serve 'chutney' in your mother's eatery!

Don't giggle I mean you too

Understood? Listen carefully

Fine, I accept I'm out Your turn

No need Let's listen to him

Only then we can be well settled in life

Madcap! If this man had really studied well...

...he should be a doctor or engineer, right?

He's himself a dunce, no wonder he ended up as a teacher here

If he can get a job you think we can't?

'True'

Sir...sir?

Good morning, sir

Yes...?

- Which is grade 6-C? - 'This is the classroom'

This is my grandson He has joined school today

Please keep an eye on him

Get inside

As if we don't have enough oafs one more to the lot, huh?

He seems really pathetic Don't rag him, let him be

I'll take leave, sir

'City life, different from life in a village-'

When you rub both together you realize the-

You brought 'idli', huh?

What have you got?

Curd rice

I feel like eating some more

If that's so, you have no other go but to steal the teachers' lunch!

Get that Let's eat

Why aren't you eating? I'm asking you

Don't want, huh?

Help yourself to it

'I won't join you to play this evening'

'- Why? - Tomorrow is my birthday'

'I have to buy a dress and chocolates'

Jolly! Buy Èclair candies

That's too expensive My father will never buy it for me

He'll buy only cheap candies

- Yuck! - Will you eat only Èclairs?

Not like that

Let me drop you

We'll keep talking and walk to school

Okay, then go in time safe and sound

How does he know you?

He squealed on us, huh? About eating his lunch?

They have moved into the house that was locked next to mine

He is an orphan

My mother wanted us to befriend him

Make him our friend and what do we do?

'Don't grab Take just 1'

Everyone gets 1 candy You can't take more than that

Hey! Mind you Only 1 candy

Take

Take a candy Today is his birthday

He must be a loony case

His parents must have preferred to die than bring him up I think

Let me go You're hurting me

It's paining Don't...let me go

Stop fighting

Get up

Sir, are you looking for your grandson?

He left long ago

- He bashed up his classmate - What do you mean?

The teacher punished him

He ran out as soon as the school bell rang

'Go...go home'

Why are you hanging around here?

He's the one

Why did you hit my son?

Can't you hear me? I asked you a question

Why did you hit him?

Answer me

Sir, why are you scolding him?

What did you do, huh?

'What happened in school? Unless you tell how will we know?'

What happened, Hari's amma?

He bashed up my son's face in a brawl in school

He isn't the kind to be violent

So you think! Look at my son's face

We are bringing him back from hospital, that too on his birthday

Is it your birthday, my child?

Today is his birthday too

'He didn't even wear the new shirt I got him'

'Why should we talk to you?'

Call his parents

Why are you? Ask his parents to come here

Call them

Bro, his parents are dead

Why did you hit him?

Hereafter both of you shouldn't fight, alright?

Whatever it is tell this 'amma'

Okay?

Let's go

Kids will sort it out by themselves

See you

'- No one reprimanded you in school? - They made him kneel down'

'Boys, repeat what I say now'

'Okay, sir'

'In the olden days'

'In a village'

2 friends lived next to each other

Tell me

Hari, get your bag

Okay, sir

How can you alone escape?

You listen to this man boring us to death

'Why did you leave me and go, ma?'

Go...go away

Get lost!

"We'll walk hand in hand On our journey in this land"

"What other strife will they face in life?"

"Who has the answer though? 2 little lives yearn to know"

"As shade from sun's scorching rays"

"As an umbrella when it rains"

"Who will come to our aid in this place?"

"To be comforted by a shoulder"

"As a pal and partner forever"

"Only this true kinship A golden gift of friendship"

"No assurances anticipated"

"Not even a tad disappointed"

"God in our journey will determine our destiny"

"Like clouds colliding in gray skies joyriding"

"On this land we'll stride Hand in hand alongside"

"Who befriends whom here based on circumstances peculiar"

"Bonds tighten to adhere"

"Whatever fate unwritten who is to preach unbidden?"

"Is this a shadow or truth's halo?"

"Tears or smiles, in unity Go hand in hand 50-50"

"Wonder who taught this A new decree it is"

"Ties of kinship a million Kindred spirits a zillion"

"All these fade in comparison"

"This friendship is enough Hardship we faced however tough"

Hello, anna

I'm very much at home

What is the matter?

'Oh my God! Okay, bro We'll go'

Hema?

- What, pa? - I have to go for a funeral

Ask your 'sleepy joe' brother to drop you in school

I'll pick you up in the evening

If necessary, you take my vehicle

'- Bro...anna? - Pccht!'

- What...? - Please drop me in school

Why? What is he doing?

He has to attend a funeral it seems

So he asked me to go with you

Which fellow kicked the bucket in the morning?

- Get ready, we'll go - I am ready

You get out of bed, bro

Do you let a man sleep peacefully in this house?

My old man is going out somewhere it seems

I must drop Hema at school

Leave the bike outside

I have left home

- Hema...? - 'Coming, bro'

Let's go

Bro, appa asked us to take his vehicle

This old rattletrap?

No one in this world will ride it other than him

You'll be better off walking!

Zip your lips and come

- Had breakfast, bro? - Not yet

Don't go anywhere

I'll come and drop you

- Bye, bro - Take care

Teasing these young girls

Do you have a heart at all?

'Get lost, nosey parker'

Who is that fellow? He is spoiling for a fight

I'm unable to hook his sister

Leave it, as if she can elude us forever

'We'll tackle her then'

'This is Muthu, where are you?'

- Where are you? - 'I've come to the college shop'

You stay there

I'll drop Easwaran, get refreshed and come

Give me a cigarette, bro

Snuff your cigarette Your girl is watching, right?

So what?!

She was staring daggers at you

You continue to smoke!

You are up to all the mischief and then you blame her shamelessly

That's the joy of wooing

Otherwise there's no spice!

Forget that, in another few minutes, your girl will show up promptly

Looks like this girl has bribed the Corporation for a speed breaker!

- Okay, bye - See you

'Friend, how about tea?'
