Varshangalkku Shesham (വർഷങ്ങൾക്ക് ശേഷം)

She's right around the corner. Go quickly.

Okay.

Indira Chechi,

I've been watching him from when he was buying groundnuts from Kunnappadi’s.

What?

He has been gazing at you with his mouth agape.

Tell him that I don't like all this.

You really don't like it?

I didn't mean it that way, but I need to play hard to get, right?

- He's good looking. - Yes.

But he's got a fraud's demeanour.

Doesn't he? Look, look.

Even his dad has that!

Also, who gets through life today without being a bit of a fraud?

Here he comes.

I don't like people following me like this.

I won't repeat it.

I have no other option. That's why.

He's head over heels in love with you.

Huh?

Love letter, love letter!

Last night, my plan was to sleep until 11 PM and then study hard.

But I woke up only at 7 AM.

I went into the exam completely clueless.

If I don't answer all the questions when I get back home,

Dad will tie me to the coconut tree and beat me.

Can you please teach me everything on the way home?

Is this why you were following me?

Yes.

You're a big shot in the literature society, right?

Aren't you a writer?

It's of absolutely no use.

As per the Indian education system,

losers with excellent memory are considered star students.

So, you just called me a loser?

- No, I didn't. - You did!

No. Forgive me!

- I won't forgive you! - That's alright, but please help me.

Go and ask your friends.

I have no friends who are knowledgeable in history.

What about the studious ones in your class?

- They won't let me near them! - True!

So, will you help me?

Tell him that you lost the question paper.

How come I never had this idea earlier?

How was your exam?

I haven't written any exam as well as this one.

Where is the question paper?

Errr... there's a breeze that's seen only in North Kerala...

That breeze must have swept it away, huh?

Yes.

- Dear! - Huh? Who dear?

Oh no! The Tiger!

Question paper for the History exam.

Oh! It has a name and a picture on it, huh?

In which year was the Charminar built?

Huh? Last year?

You donkey!

Who built the Qutub Minar?

Must be some carpenter!

Carpenter?

Oh my God!

Oh God!

Mom, brother hasn't stopped crying.

No point in me saying anything, really.

It's because he's going after cinema and theatre, right?

You do this.

Buy him some lentil fritters from Syed Alawi's shop.

All his problems will vanish when his tummy is full.

Two lentil fritters!

["This World" directed by Shakespeare Shekharan]

Hey, watch where you're going!

His damn phone and his Bluetooth!

His focus is everywhere but the road!

Sorry, Sir.

These guys drive without their eyes on the road.

We just had a narrow escape.

What's the name of this person you're looking for?

Murali Vishwambharan.

When did he go missing?

It's been a while.

I searched for him in several places.

I didn't get any leads.

This morning,

one of my friends...

saw him leaving after buying something...

from a grocery shop in a village near Erode.

By the time we turned the car around and reached there,

he was nowhere to be found.

Was it the shopkeeper who gave you the location?

He doesn't know this person...

but he has said he'll track him down.

And...

I got the location only now.

This missing person...

Who is he to you, Sir?

My closest friend.

Today is December 22nd.

50 years ago,

it was on this very day...

that I met him.

Where did dad go, Grandma?

He has gone somewhere.

He has left?

Tell me what time it is!

From the shadows, it seems like 4:30 PM.

- 4:30 PM? - Looking again, it's 5:30 PM.

There he goes!

How was your exam, Venu?

- Excellent! - Will you pass?

No chance!

[Nalanda Cultural society presents "This World"]

- Raviyetta! - Yes.

Can I raise the curtain today?

- I don't mind. - Okay.

But come only after you've done your peeing and pooping.

You can't leave in between.

I won't leave! Where's Shekharettan?

He has been looking at a wire ever since he arrived.

- Wire? - Yes. A telegram.

Sari.

Who sends a telegram from Tamil Nadu asking for a Sari?

Don't they get Saris over there?

Would it be due to inflation?

The wire came from Tamil Nadu, right?

Shall we ask a Tamilian?

- Nanu. - Yes, Shekharetta.

Call Velu from the light and sound department.

Please check this dialogue, Nanuvetta.

Velu, what does Sari mean in Tamil?

- Women's garment, Sir. - That's okay.

Is there any other meaning?

Other meaning for Sari...

Apology, Sir!

- Apology? - Shekharetta, it means S-O-R-R-Y.

There's a good news for all of you.

That scoundrel who plays the hero in our play...

has absconded!

- He and his bloody apology! - Shekharetta!

I've been asking you for so long!

Shall I be the hero of this play?

I know all the dialogues by heart.

Okay. Tell me the dialogues from the last scene.

For decades,

melting away in the summer sun...

Melting away and?

Melting away...

What was the rest?

It's my misfortune that's making me do this, boy!

You are the hero in today's play.

But don't utter a single dialogue in the last scene.

Do whatever you can with your face.

I'll hit it out of the park, Shekharetta!

I have no doubt about that.

That's enough!

Get me the dialogues. I'm the hero.

Today will probably be the biggest boo-fest of my theatre life.

Should I arrange goons to shut them up?

No. Even the goons will boo today.

We'll have to play some tricks with the music.

Shall we ask Peethambaran to raise a notch with his harmonium?

He raised a notch last week in Kottiyoor.

It shattered my heart!

Oh!

I will have to come up with an idea.

Shekharan doesn't have "conference"!

- Aren't you Unni Master's son? - Yes.

Don't tell my dad that I came here, Shekharetta!

I won't tell him. I don't like him.

No one likes him, Shekharetta.

Will you do me a favour?

Yes. I'll do anything you tell me, Shekharetta.

You should go to Kunjahammed Sahib's house.

People have come there from Persia, Kozhikode and Bombay.

- A party is going on there. - Okay.

There's this guy there who sings and plays the violin really well, Murali.

- You must get him here. - Okay.

Just tell him that Shekharettan is calling him.

You may take the bicycle.

- Okay. - Go quickly!

Venu, where did you get the bicycle from?

I don't have time to talk.

Shekharettan has given me a task.

You don't need us now, right?

Isn't that your guy, Chechi?

Shut up, wretch!

Come on! Come on!

Huh?

Oh!

And?

Wow! Bravo!

Wow! Marvellous!
