Pennu Case (പെണ്ണ് കേസ്)

Mr Holiness is here!

Oh, Vijayan...

How many times have I told you

not to post such messages in the group?

Couldn't you hold off just for today?

All group members, sorry.

I sent it to the temple committee group. Ended up here by mistake.

Let Vijayan post it.

We need a change after all.

Only updates on expenses are shared in this group,

nothing else.

Look, we're going as representatives for everyone.

We'll give all that's due for the wedding anyway.

The expenses are the same for all. So, can't avoid mentioning that.

Where are you off to this early, Jayan?

Ah, Balettan.

To attend a wedding in Kudiyanmala.

Ah, keep enjoying someone else's wedding feast!

I didn't say I won't pay.

But I can't bear all expenses.

I meant, don't post your food bills to the group.

Ha! He's coming.

Jayan, come fast.

Where were you?

We are really late.

We have been waiting forever.

I can't step out of the house before sunrise.

There are wild elephants around.

Only they are left in this town to taunt me!

Get in. Come on.

Will we make it there before the ceremony?

There's plenty of time.

[Malayalam song 'Ente Sindhoora Rekhayil' playing on jeep stereo]

"The name scorched by time in warm blood onto the heart of a man who refuses to lose

or be defeated... Bindhu."

No. I've to go to a funeral ritual on the 1st.

Schedule it on the 3rd or the 4th.

Okay, then. Call me.

-Peecheri. -The priest's at a turtle speed.

Ignore it.

Tell the Nadaswaram artists

to play singer Yesudas' songs after the rituals.

My Bindhu loves that.

Man, you're not dressed in white for a classical concert!

After all these years, a wedding is finally going to happen.

Let it flow naturally.

Right. Let's not disrupt that flow.

Exactly!

Will your Gulf team reach before the ceremony?

They will be here.

Where is she?

She is getting ready.

-Why are you late? -She took her time getting ready.

-Where should I keep this? -Over there.

Kids! A bit more energy, please.

No one should pass this way without a rosewater sprinkle!

Got it?

Do you know how to spray it?

Show me.

Very good.

-Are you on Instagram? -I don't have Instagram.

What's this, man? Weren't you supposed to be here early?

What to do? The traffic was crazy!

Wow!

Gulf Team!

Wow! Marvellous!

Aaaah! Holy Mother!

The wedding is ruined, Peecheri...

If anyone ruins my wedding,

I swear on Muthappan, I won't let anyone walk free!

Have food and go.

Get lost!

-Get up, Uncle. -For what?

Go hit them, Uncle.

Isn't the fight over?

-We will get you! -Come on!

I will smack your face off!

What's this? Did they change the uniform for MGNREGA?

Sir, look. One of them bit me.

He bit me like a dog.

'Eruvessy Krishi Bhavan Seed Distribution'

What is this, man?

Is this a police station or the Krishi Bhavan?

Hold this.

Sister... The CI?

I mean, madam…

We couldn't meet the CI.

He's inside, on his morning Satta.

After that...

Walk this way.

I mean, once he's done eating that,

if he could sort this out,

we can finish the wedding before the auspicious time ends.

So, the fight broke out before tying the knot?

-Peecheri! What are you doing? -What's it, man?

Stop playing in that manure and go stand under a shade.

Dear policewoman, his shirt is already torn.

If it gets stained with manure, too,

there won't be time to buy a new one.

Move away.

Hey, move.

Hey, don't throw the fertiliser outside.

Who is this?

-Give me the vehicle number, sir. -Vehicle number...

What's the issue outside?

A screwed-up wedding. Full of fights and chaos.

-Did sir come? -Hasn't come out yet. Still on Satta.

Not as your son-in-law,

-see me as your son. -Dear...

I'll take care of both

-Anuradha and you, very well. -Ambili!

-Ambili! -She was in the prayer room when I left.

Turn the volume down, dear.

Isn't her prayer not finished?

-One minute. -She has gone to her room, son.

The IAS exam is coming up.

She went to study.

I'll get the door.

-Dear... -Ah, Uncle.

If this is a repeat of yesterday's episode,

can't you turn the volume down a bit?

There was a Theyyam performance yesterday.

So, I missed this episode, sir.

Where's she, Durga?

Try to remember this is a police station once in a while.

Sorry, sir.

"Mangalyam"

Good morning, sir.

Good morning.

So, it is Vilasini Chechi, right?

Yes, son.

Don't call him 'son'. Call him 'sir'.

Hey, it's alright.

No worries. That is not the issue here.

Thank you, son.

-No, thanks. -No.

No thanks.

Still...

A restaurant gets shut down just 'cause this guy uploaded a video?

It's true, son. He blabbered such nonsense

through that phone on a stick!

Stick? That's Go Pro! These boomers know nothing, sir.

One day, this guy and ten others walked in,

stuffed themselves,

didn't pay us even a rupee,

and walked away without any shame!

He alone must've eaten enough for five people!

Me?

Sir, he is our editor.

About 15 of us from the crew visit a shop together.

Oh, so you're a big shot reviewer.

When we asked him to pay for the food he ate,

he said he never pays but gives ratings.

Sir, it's called professional ethics.

They don't even know that. Seems like they're hearing it for the first time!

Fake news.

-Do you have any shame? -No.

What was your review?

Sir, the rice they served us was half-cooked.

Coming to the sardine fry,

the flesh wasn't juicy, sir.

-All lies, sir. -These are not lies, sir.

No point spewing cringey dialogue after doing everything.

Sir, you are a decent officer.

So, make a decent call on this.

And if I do?

Then, we can do a promotion of this police station.

Will do a collaboration with you as well.

From the very next day, this station's going to be flooded with cases!

Gangettan...

It's simple, sir.

We'll strap a phone to the 'stick',

make him shoot an apology video, and get him roasted!

Oh, no! I just recovered from the last roast!

Please, not again!

I don't care how many takes it takes,

release him only after it's done.

Also, as per our station's customs,

we make them water our vegetable garden for such cases.

-Okay, then. Do it accordingly. -Done, sir.

Go out.

You water the plants and give my name in the credits.

Look.

We will take care of it accordingly.

-There's nothing to worry about. -

Okay, sir.

What's going on over there, Gangettan?

It's about a wedding getting disrupted, sir.

Don't make noise. Let the sir come.

Hey, what's going on?

One minute.

Just one person at a time.

One at a time!

STOP IT!

Let one of you talk.

Sir, we have a complaint.

-Are you the troublemaker? -No.

-Then who? Him? -Not me, sir.

-No, sir. -Sir?
