It's a long story.

Coffee?

Here's the bag, mum.

Boy! I left Rs10 here. Did you see it?

Rs10? Check the tin. - It's not here.

It fell on the floor. You thought I stole your Rs10?

How could you?

Hey, Kapish. - Master.

Are you hurt?

Want me to get an auto?

I want Rs10. Okay, Master? - What?

Service charge? - No. I'm helping you.

And you help me too.

That's all. - That's all?

Give me Rs10, Master.

Here. - Thank you Master.

I'll string you up by your underpants if you try it again.

Auto! - All sound is music.

The sound of music is everywhere.

There's music in every action.

There's rhythm in every sound.

That rhythm is my music.

Mr. Krish. - Yeah.

Your chocolate cake, sir.

And cold coffee. Just the way you like it.

Thank you. - Enjoy.

Hi Krishna. - Hi.

Come in.

Here, payment for this month.

Thanks. - You have two more night tuition.

No. Cancel all tuition classes.

Why? - Puspha Nagar Pandiyan...

...is driving me nuts.

And Mrs Kavita...

...gropes me instead of the piano keys.

The competition in London is in two months.

I practice except when I sleep.

I can't seem to get the note.

I need more practice.

Mrs Kavita is rich and she's your ticket to London.

You must keep her sweet.

I want inspiration, not perspiration.

Bye. - Okay, Krishna.

Open.

Home sweet home.

Zoom in.

When I was young... Not here.

My father said... Not in here.

Not in here. Where is she?

Why knock?

Hon, hi beautiful. How are you?

Surprise! Your favourite crab.

You like it too. So, it's our favourite crab.

Yes, of course. Where else? She's cooking.

Our daughter Sanjana from Australia.

Sanjana. Hi darling. How are you?

Hi Aunty. I'm doing good.

I heard you want to join piano class.

Yeah Aunty. Starting next week.

Is daddy going on his walks? - Yes or they will close the beach.

He walks for an hour daily. - Okay Aunty.

It's getting late. Bye. - Bye.

No bye for daddy? What kind of a daughter are you?

Why is she still calling me aunty? - So?

She can call me by name. - That's not nice.

She's young. Give her time.

We've been married three years.

How long more?

Well, it's better than calling you mother, right?

She's mad. Hey, look here. Start acting.

Now for the main course... - What is that?

Murderer.

They say crabmeat is an aphrodisiac. You know it, right?

I invented it. I am the aphrodisiac.

Ask anyone.

Yeah, that's it. Go on. Go on.

What? - So spicy.

I love it. Excellent. - Wow! What a performance.

Want to do a show? I have friends in TV.

Dammit! Why did you come? - Why?

You came to kill me. - What?

Hey! What happened? Why did you stop recording?

Why'd you stop recording? - Not me. It was you.

We talked about Jodi 2.

I was auditioning for that. - Oh, okay then.

You have producer friends. - Yes.

We can make low budget, Karthick. - We can do high budget too.

Yes. It's working without eating crabs.

Are you blind? You knocked my scooter.

Idiot! I'm talking to you!

You're wearing dark glasses. Police!

Hey! Did you steal the car?

I took down the number plate!

Oh, no! My god! I'm sorry.

Are you okay?

I'm sorry.

Sir. I'm so sorry. Are you hurt?

I'm so sorry, sir. I can give you a lift.

No. - Please let me help.

Sorry, I made you wait. Here is your coffee and sandwich.

It's okay. I've had my tiffin.

Please... My heart is still racing.

At least drink your coffee. - Sure.

Sugar? - One please.

You're lucky. What if a car had hit you?

An artist's career would have been cut short.

Artist? Do you draw? - I'm a pianist.

Pianist? - Nicky.

You left the motor on last night.

Sorry sir. - Sorry?

Wow! Fantastic!

Who is that? - Meet my dad.

I am Franco.

Hello sir. - Where did you find him?

By accident. - Piano music. It's been too long.

We have no pianist. - Can you play here?

How did you lose your sight?

I got hit in the head by a cricket ball.

I can't hear you. - I got hit in the eye...

...when I was 14. - Did you try surgery?

Can we talk about something else? - The tips at resto-bar...

...won't even cover your auto fare.

I know. - Why did you agree?

Artists crave attention.

Appreciation. Applause. - Interesting.

We're here. 3rd Cross Street.

Kurinji Nagar. - Thanks.

What is this place? - This is an NGO.

Place for the handicapped. I've been here three months.

Guess how much rent I pay? Rs500 a month.

Trees and birds.

I wake up to a symphony of birds singing.

The staircase.

I live upstairs. 20 steps.

Coffee? - Another time. I have to go.

Okay.

I loved your music. Fantastic. - Thanks.

It's not finished yet.

Some things are better unfinished.

Bye. I'll pick you up at five.

Alright. - See you.

I mean, I'll see you. Bye.

Hello. - Krish. I'm here.

I'll be down in two minutes.

Hi. Good evening. - Hi. Good evening.

How are you? - I'm good.

There's bird poo on your glasses.

Let me help you with this.

You know your eyes look very normal.

You can't see at all?

I can tell day from night.

Do you want to know the time?

The time right now is 5.30.

Anyway, bird bombs are considered...

...extremely lucky. - Really?

Oh my God, that is...

...awesome! Awesome!

Listen to this, folks. This young man has an amazing talent!

Oh God, I swear you have a gift, young man.

I have listened to all kinds of music.

Musicians. You beat all of them. - Sir.....

Your voice...

...sounds like Actor Karthick.

You know Actor Karthick?

I watched all his movies when I still had my sight.

I am a big fan of Karthick. - Yes.

I am Actor Karthick. - Gosh.

Karthick sir. - Its okay.

I want to hug you. Come here.

God bless you. Yes.

Can I get a photo with the maestro?

Sure, sir. - Sure? No problem. Julie!

I want the million dollar smile. There it is.

We're here.

You know how much tips we got tonight?

Rs4 thousand. It's a record.

It was not for my music. It was sympathy tips.

I think you're wrong. It's for your talent.

I need Rs200,000 to go to London.

I will earn it through tips.

I'm confident. - I'm sure you will.

Good night. - Good night.

Hey, Krish. - Hi.

You're early. - I wanted to practice.

Nice. I could have fetched you. Watch your step here.

Are you okay? - Yes. I'm okay.

Wow! That was a treat!

Thank you, Karthick sir. - No. You're great.

You said, you've watched my movies?

Can you play my songs?

Can you play your favourite song? - Yes.

I will play now. - Hey, not here.

Tomorrow is my wedding anniversary.

Congrats, sir. - Shush.

Come to my house at one o'clock tomorrow.

My wife loves my songs.

It's a private concert. A surprise.

Okay sir. - You don't know my address.

My address is on this card.

This is a very small advance. - Hi sir.
