Love Oh Love (லவ் ஓஹ் லவ்)

THORAIPAKKAM

- Ma'am? - Yes, tell me.

He said he would come and talk to my mother after finishing work, didn't he?

Yes.

But he never showed up.

He hasn't even picked up my calls for a week.

I'm very scared.

This is my life, ma'am.

He's avoiding you even after everything I've said?

Don't you worry.

I'm there for you.

Just watch what I do to him.

Hmm.

Harshitha ma'am...

You pathetic drunkard!

That's not Harshitha, man, that's Harichandra!

Give it to him already!

Were you in love with a girl named Avantika for four years?

I did.

Did you take her everywhere, parks, beaches, movies, malls, restaurants?

Yes, I did.

Hmm.

Did you take her to Ooty and book a room?

Yes, I did.

Did you tell her you'll talk to her mother about the marriage?

Yes, I did.

Then why the hell, instead of going to her mother's house in Thoraipakkam,

do you have a ticket booked for Dubai?

Sir!

-Lekha- -Women's Association Head

Sir, he lured a girl into love, betrayed her,

and is now trying to flee from the country.

I thought you'd have him stripped down to his underwear and thrashed by now,

but here you are, royally questioning him in a chair.

Oh!

And a soda for his hangover, too?

Is this how you conduct an investigation, sir?

Why don't you sit down and interrogate him yourself then?

Don't talk without realizing the seriousness of this, sir!

Watching that girl cry in agony... even we couldn't bear to see it.

If that girl takes a fatal, wrong step tomorrow,

who is going to be responsible, sir?

She's asking you... give her an answer, damn it!

Hey!

Don't let him go! Ladies, surround him and lock him in right there!

Look, he's running! He's running! Catch him! Grab him!

No matter which country you flee to, I won't let you go!

I swear I won't let you go today!

You owe that girl an answer.

Yeah, right. Let's finish this today!

Oh no! Save me, sir!

Please, sir. Just look at his audacity!

Where do you think you are? What do you think you're doing?

Thank you, sir.

One hit, that's all it'll take to finish you.

Sir, don't file a case saying I cheated a girl.

If you want, file a case saying I beat these nuisances to death right here!

There are a thousand real issues to fight for in this country for women.

Let me go!

In Porur, a man raped and killed a seven-year-old child.

The court let him walk free.

Why didn't these people stand in front of the court

or the police station and ask why that dog was released?

Their only job is to poke their noses into useless matters

and stand in the way to cause trouble!

You have so much to say

then tell us, what on earth was the problem with your love?

There was no problem in the love, sir...

'Love' itself was the problem!

L

Lo.

Lov.

Love.

Love.

Love O.

Love Oh.

Love Oh.

Love Oh I.

Love Oh Lo.

Love Oh Lov.

Love Oh Love.

Love Oh Love

Devotional song is playing..

Oh Lord...

"We've been doing this every year for years now."

"These days, I don't see many Tamil families doing this anymore.

"Back in the day, during the temple festivals,

they used to sell these coin boxes in Mylapore."

"It will be made of sand."

"It will be a good feeling to see money fall out when breaking it."

"No one makes those coin boxes today."

Bless you, my child.

Oh, please! Keep your 'blessings' to yourself!

"If you're receiving a salary in any form, it's best to save at least 30% of it."

- Here is your lunch bag. - Okay, Dad.

So, listen... out of the money you handed over,

once I cleared the rent, the light bill, and the provisions

- what's left is... - Why are you explaining all these to me?

No, son... after all those expenses, there's about 2000 and change left.

I just thought you might need it for yourself.

No, Dad. Kavitha mentioned she needed to buy some books.

Just give it to her.

Hey Raghu, Pushpa Grandma from D-block passed away.

Can you stop by and pay your respects on your way out?

I've got some work to finish up.

Oh, great!

Just what I need, to go look at a dead body on my way to the office.

That'll really make my day!

I have a very important meeting today,

I'm leaving now.

- Hey, eat and go... - Hey!

- Finish your food. - No, Dad. I'll eat at work.

- Here, at least take this with you. - Okay.

- Bye, Dad. - Take care.

- Bye, Mom! - Okay.

Where is the D-block?

Sir...

Sir!

Sir, when you see the girl you love for the very first time

this is exactly how the background music should kick in, right?

Yeah, true.

But do you know how it actually sounded for me, sir?

How did it sound?

The music was telling me even back then, sir...

I was just too blind to understand it.

The very same funeral I told my mother I wouldn't attend

she's standing right at my doorstep, asking for that same address.

The one decorated with flowers at the funeral

was that old lady who passed away, sir.

But the one who looked truly beautiful

it was her.

Hey... Raghu?

You said you had an urgent meeting at the office,

what on earth are you doing here?

Dad... Grandma passed away.

That is exactly what your mother told you this morning.

She's a poor soul, Dad.

Aside from us, who else does Grandma really have?

To her, we're just 'someone else' as well.

Brother, can I have a word with you?

- Sit down. - You're also just someone else to me.

Thank God!

Look at him... said he wouldn't go, and now look where he's sitting.

I don't know why, sir... but it didn't even feel like a funeral to me.

It felt more like all my relatives had gathered there

just to pick out a bride for me.

Hey, why are you just standing there?

Go serve the guests some coffee.

- She looks good, doesn't she? - Hope you're doing good, dear.

- Mom! - Huh?

I like this girl very much.

Hey!

What are you saying?

Oh we're still at the funeral?

Nothing seems normal.

Relax, I was just joking.

- Dear. - Yes?

Something's wrong with him. Let's just get out of here.

Do you have a fever?

No... you seem fine.

Fine. I guess he won't be leaving for that 'meeting' until the burial is over.

Everyone's here now. Let's get the procession started.

Oh God!

Wait... if they take the body now, she's going to leave too.

I'll keep dancing! I'll just keep dancing!

Nobody goes near the body until I'm done dancing!

You all hear me?

- Hey, look! It's Michael Jackson. - Hey!

Aren't you supposed to be at the office? What are you doing here?

I can't just leave her and go.

Hey, Gopal! Wake up!

Everyone's gone!

Look at him, still searching for her.

Huh? Where is everyone?

Let's get out of here!

You idiots!

- So, what happened to Grandma in the end? - What else could we do, sir?

After the mess we made, everyone just left.

But we couldn't just leave Grandma there, right?

We spent our own cash and made sure everything was done right.

I swear, sir, every cent came out of our own pockets!

I didn't know who she was, where she came from, or even her name, sir.

But somehow, I tracked her down and actually got her to fall for me.

Our very first date.

I went to the spot she picked and just stood there, waiting for her.

Wait, hold on!

First time you saw her, the funeral horns were literally blowing.

Then she served you coffee.

How are you already talking about dating?

When did you even propose?

How did you actually get her to fall for you?

Sir, the story isn't about how I made her fall in love with me.
