[Snaps finger]

'I really like this thing that make

me sleep even someone they don't like'

[Music]

[School bell rings]

Good morning, madam.

-Good morning.

Good morning.

-Looks like you're late today.

Yes. -My foot,

she's late every single day.

What's the matter?

You're always stuck with that toy.

It won't come, and you won't let it go.

Neha?

I asked you for some

money last month, didn't I?

Thanks, dear.

Aren't you going to ask why?

-You must have needed it, so you asked.

Actually, I'm paying into a scheme

without telling my husband.

My husband took my salary.

That's why!

You know everything about my life,

I share it all with you.

But whenever I ask about you anything,

you just smirk.

Sowmya, what's the good news?

The doctor confirmed yesterday,

that, I'm three months pregnant.

Wow, congratulations.

-Alright then.

Ask for the party!

-You're right.

Look at her,

only married for six months...

and already pregnant,

handing out sweets.

Yes, you've been married

for years now, haven't you?

So when are you going to

share some good news?

[Music]

Karthik... Radhika is calling you.

Yeah, I'll get back to you!

Karthik...

I sent you an escalation

email, did you see it? -No idea.

Do you even know why

escalation mails are sent? -Nope.

Do you at least know

that I have the authority to...

decide whether you're in

this office or not? -Nope.

Then what do you know?

I know how to make short films.

'Why do you like me so much, madam?'

'I don't know why, but I feel

like I always want to be with you.'

'It really hurts me when you

don't come into the office.'

Why, madam?

-I don't know.

See that?

Even you don't know, just like me.

[Music playing]

Hey, go over there and dance.

What are you doing?

Drink up, mate.

-Are you mad? Why are you slapping her?

Is she your wife?

Shut up and booze!

A man frustrated with his home

takes it out on everyone outside.

[Bottle smashed]

-[Groans]

If you dare mention wives again,

I won't invite you to my party ever again.

I'll k*ll you!

I'm from decent family.

I'm an honest husband.

[Doorbell rings]

[Doorbell rings]

[Doorbell rings]

Neha...

ice pack!

Ice pack!

Neha, get me the ice pack.

Sir... ice pack!

Are you Neha?

Finished cooking?

-I still have to.

Then get on with it.

[Groans]

Neha...

ashtray!

If you bring the ashtray now,

you can sleep in your room tonight.

All alone!

[Music]

I asked for the ice pack, didn't get it!

I asked for the ashtray,

you ignored that too.

And when I offered you the

chance to sleep alone in your room!

Why you acting like you

ever listen to your husband?

Neha, Gautham!

Neha Gautham!

Neha Gautham!

Neha Gautham!

[Crying]

[Sighs, school bell rings]

What's this, Gautham?

You're always late.

Because of you, I won't make it to

school on time even for one day.

Sorry, Neha.

Sorry!

Mum asked me to pick up some

groceries when I was leaving for school.

That's why I'm late.

You always come up

with some rubbish excuse.

Sorry, Neha.

Sorry, Neha!

Sorry, Neha.

You know I like it when

you apologise to me, don't you?

[Music]

"Let's hop on a cycle and ride

all over the village, my friend"

"Shall we climb the wall and

pluck those fruit like little kings"

"Tear up the textbooks

and turn them into boats"

"Catch fireflies and hold them

gently in our cupped hands"

"If you say you'll carry the

sack of salt, I'm ready, my friend"

"In our games of hide-and-seek,

you're the one searching for me"

"Let's build little nests in the sand..."

"If the waves rush in,

we'll tell them to go away"

"Let's go to the Temple

for roasted chickpeas"

"Gobble them up quickly,

then run off again"

"From now on, you and I,

just the way we like!"

"Let's stay friends forever"

"Let's be each other's very life"

"Let's become a world of our own"

"If you're not around,

I feel lifeless, my friend"

"Even when silly little fights come up,

we'll make up and move on"

[Music]

"When my shining eyes keep looking at you"

"No sorrow ever comes,

when I'm with you"

"At home there's grandma,

and here there's you. and that's enough!"

"God truly is kind,

as He showed me you"

"Promise me you'll never

leave me, my friend"

"If you swear it and then break it,

I'll whack your head!"

Neha, your nanny has passed away.

Nanny?

Nanny...

[Crying]

Nanny...

Poor Neha, she lost her parents

when she was a child.

Her nanny raised her.

Wonder how Neha

will cope with all this.

[Crying]

Rani...

-Ma'am...

is my lunchbox ready?

Just give me few minutes,

it will be done!

[Plate smashed]

You know how to plunder salary...

but don't you know how to

make food on time for Neha?

Just two minutes, Neha.

Only two minutes.

I'll get it ready for you.

Prepare the box for Neha!

I don't want to.

Can't you see the "dosa" is burning?

Sir... no, sir.

Because of your

YouTube cooking experiments...

my Neha's health is getting ruined.

Did I ask you to sleep with me?

I only asked you to eat the "dosa".

Oh, you don't like "dosa", do you?

I'll bring your favourite

"laddoos" in the evening.

Have this "dosa" for now

If you don't eat this,

you won't go to the office today.

Not just today, never again.

I won't let you go.

If you eat by yourself, that's fine.

Or if I feed you...

it'll be more romantic.

There's nothing more disgusting than this.

You won't eat when I offer, but when I

say I'll feed you, you'll have by yourself

Ma'am... "dosa"?

Everyone keeps turning me into a villain

just by getting scared for me!

Scram!

What's your problem?

I'm tall enough and fair enough,

what else more do you want?

The man you loved would

be half the man I am!

and he'd already be married,

naming his children after you.

People like that are

called incompetent fools.

The love I believe in, is

grabbing our loved ones!

And I've succeeded in doing that.

[Sobbing]

Get in the car.

No, I'll take an auto.

Hop in, I say!

[Music]

[Horn blares]

[Indistinct chatters]

Mrs Sudha, did you see the news yesterday?

They mentioned our college.

No, my son was busy

watching his programmes.

Neha?

Neha?

Neha?

[Crying]

What happened?

Karthik is showing hell.

Get up, let's go to the hospital.

Can I come with you?

-No, it's fine. I'll manage.

Alright. Take care.

[Crying]

Gautham, my nanny is no more!

My father-in-law is taking

me with him to his place.

Yes, Neha...

my dad said the same.

I guess we can't play together anymore.

And we won't even be

able to go to school together.

Neha, I'll study hard here...

and come to you once I grow up.

Will you really come for me, Gautham?

-Yes, Neha.

Promise?

-Promise!

Come, son.

Come on.

Pray to your aunt's photograph.

Come

[Phone rings]

Gautham, it's me, Neha.

[Gautham] How are you, Neha?

You stopped coming to our village.

[Gautham] Did you forget me

after moving away? -No, Gautham.

[Gautham] Seeing our school and your house

always reminds me of you, Neha.

I feel the same, Gautham.

Whenever I think of those days,

I miss you terribly.

How did your exams go?

-[Gautham] I did well. What about you?

[Gautham] Tell me, Neha.

-The gift you sent was lovely, Gautham.

How many times have I told you

not to call me on the landline?

If my father-in-law finds out,

it'll be a problem.

[Gautham] If he asks,

tell him I'm your friend, Neha.

You're not just my friend, Gautham.

I miss you so much.

When will you come?

[Gautham] I've got a few things

to sort out in the village.

[Gautham] Once I'm done, I'll come.

Gautham?

Will you stay with me the whole day?

Not just today,

I'll stay with you always.

My entire family has moved here.

My relatives dumped my father in business.

Because of that,

dad's health ruined!

He didn't want to stay

in the village anymore.

This town has better hospitals,

so we came here.

How is your father now?

And aunt, Latha doing?

They're fine...

but Dad needs regular check-ups.

They're saying we might

need to go to Mumbai.

Take me to your house once, Gautham.

It's been years since I last saw everyone.

Neha...

The reason I came here

isn't just my dad's health.

It's you too.

[Music]

"In this world full of colours

I say I'm not alone anymore"

"Only after you came did I truly

start believing those words"

"I'm getting wildly playful

I'm crossing over all confusion"

"I want this magic to

last right till the very end"

"You're my journey, and my destination

You're the smile upon my lips!"

"Every single moment,

you became my whole world"

"You're the answer to my every question

You're the dream within my eyes"

"Standing right before me,

you became my reality"

"Hey, all this happiness is mine"

"Hey, the stars are gathering

all around me"

"Hey, beauty, my endless desire

All of it is meant for you"

"Hey, the sky itself feels

within my reach"

[Music]

"Yesterday, in our childish games"

"Today, we built a little nest of our own"

"Tomorrow,

on paths that last a hundred years"

"Shall we walk together, side by side"

"Listen carefully to what I'm saying"

"Just the thought of

you feels extraordinary"

"It's a truth that cannot stay unspoken"

"This celebration feels so wonderful"

"I want it every single moment

May this sweet wish come true"

"All this happiness is mine"

"The stars are gathering all around me"

"Hey, beauty, my endless desire"

"All of it is meant for you

The sky itself feels within my reach"

[Music]

Fine, I'll leave, bye!

-Neha?

I bought these "laddoos"

because you like them.

Eat.

I told you to eat, didn't I?

I SAID EAT!

I HAVE TO TURN THE WORD 'LOVE'...

INTO PAIN!

Do you even realise how much

pain you're putting me through?

Do you even know that?

Not you, first I should

scold my father.

He said marriage brings love.

But where is it?

Where has that love blossomed?

Love on you?

If you died right now,

I wouldn't even shed a damn tear.

What do I have to do to

make you understand my love?

Love isn't burning her with a cigarette.

It isn't beating her.

or it isn't touching without her consent.

Then what is love?

Is crying over someone who walked

away halfway through called love?

I'm not crying because he left.

it's because I'm stuck with you.

Whether he's with me or not,

I love ONLY Gautham!

[Claps]

So she loves only Gautham.

She loves only Gautham, it seems

She loves only Gautham, it seems!

Come on, hold it.

Fire it, come on!

Lit it!

Even now, I'm not getting angry on you.

Or are you going to touch my body?

Go on, touch it.

Go on!

Even now, I'm not getting angry on you.

What, you won't even shed a tear for me?

-[Maid] Sir?

Sir?

The food is ready, sir.

Rani...

If you don't leave right now, my slipper

print's gonna be your face tattoo

Understood, sir.

So you won't shed a tear

for me when I die, will you?

I'll make you say

"I love you" today.

Say it, say you love me.

Say it, say you love me.

You won't, will you?

You won't, will you?

Say "I love you!"

-[Vase smashed]

You supported me

when I was heartbroken over her.

Now help me prove my love.

Say "I love you!"

-[Bottle smashed]

Say it!

Say "I love you!"

Say "I love you!"

Say "I love you!"

-[Bottle smashed]

Neha... Neha...

Neha...

Neha...

Neha...

Neha... Neha...

Doctor, how is my Neha now?

She fainted due to

stress-related blood pressure.

Nothing more.

Will she be alright?

By the way, what are those bruises?

Just a small accident while

proving my love, doctor.

These medicines are for you,

not for her.

They'll help you recover.

-Thank you, doctor.

[Clock ticking]

[Loud thuds]

In ancient times,

Sita entered the fire for Lord Ram.

And today, for my Sita,

this Ravana will enter the fire.

Because for you...

Gautham is your Lord Ram, isn't he?

Tell me!

Say "I love you!"

Say it!

Say "I love you!"

Say "I love you!"

I love you.

I love you too.

[Sobbing]

Seeing the moment when

Rama was not around...

You used deception and force

And carried Mother Sita away

O deceitful Ravana!

"Your sorcery,

Your spells, tricks, and dark ideas..."

"Trusting your physical strength,

you grew arrogant..."

"Claiming Sita as yours alone,

Boasting in pride, Ravana!"

"Ravana!"

"Your time of destruction has arrived,

O' wicked Ravana!"

"That is why such corrupt thoughts

were born in you, Lustful Ravana."

"Your magical powers will weaken,

Illusion-weaving Ravana."

"All your tricks will be

destroyed, Wretched Ravana."

"The tears shed by Mother Sita"

"Will turn into a curse upon you!"

"Your golden Lanka

Will be reduced to ashes!"

"Love belongs only to Sita and Rama!"

"Rama is the very breath of Sita."

"Rama is Sita's life itself!"

"Love is the true form

of those two souls!"

"By separating Sita and Rama,

You committed a terrible sin"

"The burning pain

In the hearts of those two..."

"Will surely scorch you like fire!"

"Trees, grass, creatures, and serpents,

The armies of Rama..."

"The eight directions, The five

elements leads for your destruction!"

"The day will soon come

When the final song is sung"

"Love belongs only to Sita and Rama"

"Rama is the very breath of Sita"

"Rama is Sita's life itself"

"Love is the true form

of those two souls"

Gautham?

Gautham?

Gautham?

Gautham?

Gautham?

Gautham?

Neha...

What happened?

-Gautham?

Who is Gautham?

What happened, Neha?

What happened, Neha?

Who is Gautham?

Neha, speak out

What happened?

I lost my parents when I was a child.

My nanny raised me,

by filling the void they left!

Gautham lived near our home.

We've been friends since childhood.

My life used to be happy.

But after my nanny died,

my life turned upside down.

Neha...

Neha...

Neha...

Neha...

[Karthik] 'I liked you the moment

I saw you.'

'I really like you, very much.'

'I'll stay with you forever!'

'You're not supposed to

leave me or go anywhere.'

'Besides, you don't befriend anyone.'

'Alright?'

[Music]

Yes, mate, I brought my

niece along as well.

That's why I stayed

back for two more days.

I'll come to the office tomorrow.

Nothing like that.

What else would it be?

Alright then.

Just a minute.

Hey, Karthik...

this is Neha.

She'll be your wife.

You have to take care of her!

[Music]

"Ecstatic Love!"

"Ecstatic Love!"

"My life, you're my very life"

"Believe me,

believe me, hear me out!"

"Mine, all mine,

you belong only to me"

"Whether I smile or cry,

it's always with you"

"I want only you,

don't ever refuse me"

"Wherever you are,

I am your direction"

"I can't last even a minute

without seeing you"

"I've sworn it upon myself!"

[Music]

"If anyone looks at you with desire,

I'll tear their eyes away"

"If you speak to any other man,

I'll k*ll him"

"The sky itself isn't enough for my love,

Even the whole earth feels too small"

"My heart is filled,

overflowing with love"

"Even if you scold me, I'll steal a kiss"

"Even if you fight,

I'll pull you into my arms"

"My love is madness taken

too far, I say!"

"Come to me!"

"My golden damsel!"

"Love me in the same way, I love!"

"Ecstatic Love!"

"Ecstatic Love!"

"Ecstatic Love!"

"Ecstatic Love!"

Okay, bye!

-Neha?

No, Gautham, please!

If someone sees us, I'll be in trouble.

If anyone does see us,

we'll just say we're in love.

I said no, go now.

-Neha.

[Loud thuds]

I'm leaving. Bye.

-Neha?

What's going on, Father-in-law?

Where are you off to?

Venkat Rao's son's wedding.

If I don't go, he'll be offended.

What's wrong, dear?

Why do you look so dull?

I feel scared, Father-in-law.

Why are you scared?

Your brother-in-law is here, isn't he?

I'll be back in two or three days, dear.

Okay?

Neha...

I've cooked brinjal for you.

Go and freshen up.

Let's eat dinner.

That's enough, Father-in-law.

-No excuses, that's nothing.

Eat it.

[Sniffs]

It smells lovely.

Try this as well.

Look, your brother-in-law is here.

Hey, Come on, let's eat.

I'm not hungry.

-It'll be, if you eat some!

Will you go to bed without eating?

Wash your hands.

-I'll do it after I finish eating.

What's all that dust on your clothes,

why are you like that?

A dog got in my way

while I was coming home.

Did you get hurt?

-No.

Father-in-law, water?

Why are you only eating rice?

despite having many dishes!

Try this

[Chokes]

Would anyone eat this?

Karthik, what happened?

[Chokes]

Father-in-law...

You know his temper, don't you?

I wonder how you'll survive

with him after marriage.

[Phone chimes]

[Phone chimes]

[Thunder rumbles]

Why are you doing this?

It's wrong, isn't it?

Having a fiance like me

and still being with someone else.

[Loud thuds]

[Sniffs]

Sit down!

[Sniffs]

It's only your scarf.

I love you!

Why are you throwing my love away, Neha?

Do you know how much I love you?

I wanted to tell you about

my love, a long time ago.

But my father said you'd be my wife.

Since you were going to be

my wife, I didn't say it out loud.

I never said, 'I love you'...

but I've been showing my

love all along, haven't I, Neha?

You failed to understand it.

I love you far too much...

and you let some man kiss you?

Who is he?

[Thunder rumbles]

We've been friends since childhood.

We're in love.

And we want to get married.

I loved you too, didn't I?

Then why can't you understand my love?

Please, Karthik, I beg you.

Please leave me.

Will you marry him?

Will you marry him?

Will you marry him?

Do you know what I did

to him for kissing you?

Yes, Mum, I've taken them.

I took all the medicines.

Nothing will happen to Dad.

I'm on my way.

He'll be fine.

-Excuse me, bro

Is there an asylum nearby?

-I don't know, brother.

Yes, I'm coming.

-Bro?

Hey, who are you?

Hey, those are my dad's medicines!

My father gave me medicine for

my happiness when I was a child

you grabbed it, and now you're talking

about your dad's medicines?

[Cell phone rings]

Hello, Mom?

With each punch from me,

he'd be looking at

atleast five stitches.

I hit him just because he kissed you.

If you try to talk

to him or meet him again,

He'll rest in a photo frame!

Planning to run away

with Gautham, are you?

I'll sit right outside.

Every hour, I'll call your name,

and you must answer with "hmm".

What you have to answer?

Hmm!

[Neha crying]

Neha? Say, Hmm.

Neha?

-Hmm.

Neha?

Hmm!

[Music]

Neha?

Hmm.

Neha?

-Hmm.

Neha?

Neha?

Hmm!

Neha?

Hmm

Neha?

Hmm.

Karthik, hey, Karthik...

What's with that knife,

and why are you sitting like that?

Father-in-law...

Father-in-law...

What have you done to her?

Dear, what happened?

Father-in-law...

Since childhood, you planted this

idea in my head, that she's my wife.

I sit quietly, as you promised,

you'd make her marry me.

And now there's someone called

Gautham, and she loves him.

Talk to her,

and make her understand!

Father-in-law...

Father-in-law...

Father-in-law...

Father-in-law...

Father-in-law...

Who is Gautham, dear?

What's going on?

You know my friend Gautham,

don't you, Father-in-law?

I love him deeply.

We're in love.

We want to get married.

What do you mean by loving Gautham?

Ever since childhood, we thought

you and Karthik would marry!

But I don't like Karthik.

He's been torturing me since I was young.

As a girl, I couldn't say it out loud.

Look dear, I'm not against loving.

But breaking the word is wrong.

I gave a word to your nanny...

that, after her death,

I'd look after you!

And I did took care of you!

At the same time,

I gave a word to Karthik, that...

I'd make him marry you.

From then on, he longed for you.

And now, if you decline him...

he won't be able to handle it.

He lost his mother when he was young.

He has no siblings either.

I used to leave for

work early and return late.

He spent his entire childhood alone.

One day...

I took him to a shop to buy toys.

Dad, I want this toy.

That toy is for girls.

DAD, I WANT IT, I SAY!

Even after I refused, he insisted.

He used to play with

that toy all the time.

One day at home...

Karthik... Karthik...

Didn't you like the food?

Shall I serve something else?

Come on, eat it!

If you don't eat properly,

you will be tiny like that!

Look at me,

I've grown so much.

If I become like this,

and if you stay tiny, how it works?

I said to eat, right!

Sorry... sorry.

I won't hit you.

Eat only when you want to.

That's when I became suspicious.

I took him to the hospital.

He was depressed from being alone.

Don't let him stay by himself.

Send him out to play with other children.

Give him these medicines for three months.

Okay, madam

I tried sending him out to play...

but he kept getting into fights.

Parents would come shouting at our house.

So I stopped sending him out.

He stayed alone at home,

playing with that toy.

and talking with that toy!

Why won't you talk to me?

Can you talk something!

Don't you like me?

Then you came into our lives.

From that day on, I never saw

him play with that toy again.

I saw a change in him.

He loves you more than anything.

If you don't marry him...

I'll lose my son.

If something happens to him,

I can't live.

I'm not asking this out

of selfishness or authority.

I'm asking you out of love for my son.

Let bygones be bygones!

Forget Gautham.

Marry my son.

[Neha crying]

Neha?

Neha?

Dad, how is Neha?

What did the doctor say?

-She lost a lot of blood.

Blood?

I'll go and help her.

Why? She's sleeping.

-I'll just go and see her, Dad.

Hey, didn't you hear me?

I said I'll go and see her!

I'll go and see her!

Neha... Neha...

Neha

-No one is allowed with the patient. Go out.

Sister, please!

just two minutes.

I'll talk to her and leave.

Neha, don't worry.

You don't need to worry.

I SAID DON'T WORRY!

Neha!

If something happens to you...

how will I live, Neha?

HOW WILL I LIVE?

Didn't I ask to leave?

Leave now!

Bloody nuisance!

Scram you!

You're interrupting!

Don't be scared, Neha.

Neha?

When I say I adore you...

I mean your eyes...

your lips...

your hands...

in the same way, I adore you!

Even a small bruise

on you hurts me deeply.

Please leave.

Please go.

Why, Neha?

Why can't you understand me, always?

Sir, don't disturb the patient. Leave.

It's just a family matter, doctor.

She hurt herself

because I didn't accept her love.

Leave now, or I'll call security.

Handle family matters at home.

Leave from here

I'll leave, doctor.

Sorry, doctor

-It's okay

Please take care of my Neha.

God, let Neha recover soon.

If she recovers quickly,

I'll offer ten coconuts.

Neha...

I've talked with God, too!

You'll be fine soon.

How many times must

I warn you to leave?

As a doctor, don't you pray

for your patient?

Pray!

What about you, pray now!

God...

-God...

My Neha must recover soon.

-My Neha must recover soon.

What do you mean, "my Neha"?

God, Neha madam must recover soon.

Leave now.

Go and do your job.

Doctor...

-Sir?

Be careful while giving her the injection.

If she cries...

I swear to Neha...

another doctor

will end up injecting you.

Brother, start the engine.

[Knocking]

Gautham?

Gautham?

There's none in this home.

His father's condition worsened,

so they took him to Mumbai for surgery.

'The person you are trying to call

is not answering the call.'

'The person you are trying to call

is not answering the call.'

[Crying]

Hey, what's that?

Where did you go, dear?

You know how we were worried about you?

She went to elope with him!

Bloody...

Hey, what's with that knife?

Hey, listen to me

-She's craving for him...

or else she'll die, is that it?

Son, listen...

Not her. I'll k*ll you instead.

Father-in-law?

You filled my head with false promises.

You ruined my life.

You made me think of her every moment.

No

Father-in-law...

Please... please don't do anything.

Will you marry me?

No, don't hurt him!

Will you marry me?

Please, please!

I can't able to hear you!

-Yes... I'll marry you.

Careful, Dad.

Watch, out!

Come on, let's get ready

for the wedding photos.

[Crying]

Calm down!

Neha?

Neha?

If you ever touch me,

I'll k*ll myself with this.

Neha?

Neha?

Neha?

[TV playing]

Despite having our loved ones before

how hard it is to sit

without touching her?

I'm on the verge of tears.

I've never cried for anyone like this.

I've never chased a girl before.

Ask my dad if you want.

I'm a very good boy...

you know that, don't you?

Neha?

I'm talking to you,

are you deaf?

[Glass smashed]

Sir... sir...

Neha?

Neha?

Where is Neha?

I don't know, sir.

She wasn't here when I arrived.

Neha?

-Who are you?

Neha?

Neha?

Neha?

Neha?

Neha?

Neha?

Neha?

Neha?

Where's Neha?

I don't know.

Where has Neha gone?

You're her husband,

she should tell you, not me.

Do women go out without

informing their husbands these days?

She's not at home...

and even she's not answering her phone.

Where could she be?

I don't know.

Give me your phone

Who is he?

'The person you are trying to call

is not answering the call.'

If she calls or messages you, tell me.

Alright?

Please support me,

by telling her about me and my love.

Please

Neha?

Neha?

"You kicked my heart

hard with both your feet"

"And walked away,

leaving me to the wind"

"You tore apart all the love

I had grown for you"

"Pushed me into nothingness,

cutting down my hopes"

"This is sheer injustice, Good Lord"

"I've shattered like a broken mirror"

"I loved you so deeply!"

"Is this all it ever meant to you?"

"You kicked my heart

hard with both your feet"

"And walked away,

leaving me to the wind"

"You tore apart all the love

I had grown for you"

"Pushed me into nothingness,

cutting down my hopes"

"O' beloved!"

"O' beloved!"

"O' beloved!"

"O' beloved!"

"Didn't you ever see me

hiding you in my eyes?"

"Didn't you ever hear your name

echo in my restless sleep?"

"Does it not matter that I cried

and yelped just for you?"

"O' beloved..."

"Wherever you are,

how am I to find you"

"Until I reach you, how can

my life even hold on"

"What sin did I commit for

you to punish me like this"

"Speak out, my damsel"

"With tears filling my eyes..."

"the fire won't die down!

Even if I turn to ashes..."

"you still belong to me!"

"O' beloved..."

"O' beloved..."

"O' beloved..."

"O' beloved..."

[Music]

"Where are you,

where the hell are you?"

"Wherever you're hiding

on this earth, I'll come there"

"Where will you go,

where will you escape to"

"No matter how far you run,

I'll keep watching you"

"I'll whirl around you like

a storm, block every road"

"I'll show you a madman's love,

raw and fierce, only for you"

"How could I ever let you go,

I'll trap you in my arms"

"I'll say there's no lover in

this world greater than me"

"O' beloved..."

"O' beloved..."

"O' beloved..."

"O' beloved..."

[Screams]

What have I done now?

You left me and walked away.

This is the thousandth message...

where I'm saying sorry.

You left just because I threw a glass.

I've never seen anyone...

You walked out because I threw a glass...

but since childhood, you've been

throwing my love away.

And yet, I never left.

I stayed with you, didn't I?

What happened, sir?

What's all this blood?

Why are you crying, sir?

Who are you?

-I'm Anjaneyulu, sir.

Oh... that's the Lord's name.

Anjaneyulu, are you married?

-Yes, sir.

Has your wife ever said...

she'd stab herself if you hugged her?

-No, sir.

But my wife said that, Anjaneyulu.

Where is my Neha?

-Who is Neha, sir?

Neha is my wife.

-Sir?

I'm drowning in my own pain, why

the hell should you even care about me?

What why are you beating me?

-Sir, what happened?

Who are you?

You're the watchman of this building,

yet you're acting like you're

guarding Kashmir. Where's my Neha?

I don't know, sir.

There's no one named

Neha in this apartment.

No Neha?

What's the name of this apartment, bro?

Priya Enclave, sir.

Sorry, bro!

I came to the wrong building!

I live next door.

Sorry... sorry!

Bro...

are you married?

-Yes, sir.

Don't throw glasses or utensils

at your wife when you're angry.

I'm telling you from experience.

They'll dump us!

[Music]

[Doorbell rings]

Neha?

Scram!

Neha...

Neha...

Madam hasn't returned yet, sir.

Why didn't you tell me

you loved me this much?

And why the hell do I even love you?

[TV smashed]

Neha?

Neha?

Do you think I won't find you...

if you hide in the wardrobe, Neha?

What do you and that Goutham

even know about love?

For most people,

love is just a phase

They cry for four days

and then move on.

No macho in this world

loves every minute...

Can you laugh every second?

No, right?

Can you cry every second?

No, right

The same applies to love.

No one has the capacity to

feel it constantly.

Except me, I say!

My love for you hasn't reduced from

the first moment I saw you till today.

My love is constant!

And I love you like this,

yet you treat me like I'm mad.

Well...

I'm talking to my childhood friend.

Neha, where have you been?

It's been a week since I last saw you.

Look at me, how I have turned without you!

Why are you walking away

while I'm talking to you, Neha?

I already told you...

I'll die if you touch me.

I'm your husband, what's wrong

with me touching you?

How many times do I have to say it?

I DON'T LIKE YOU.

Why don't you like me?

How much more do I have to love you?

I love Gautham.

I'll only ever love Gautham.

What's wrong with all of you?

Will you never change?

You weep over someone who left you...

But, you ignore the one

who's crying for you!

I want to k*ll the freaking God,

who created you!

And if I want to k*ll that God,

I have to die first, don't I?

Take this knife and k*ll me.

Come on, stab me.

-I won't.

Why?

Do you love me?

You want to see me living

happily with Gautham, don't you?

Bloody...

[Bottle smashed]

[Groans]

[Karthik screams]

[Neha screams]

[Line ringing]

[Phone vibrating]

Hello?

-Ramu...

there's been a lot of shouting

from Karthik's flat. Go and check it out.

Okay, sir.

[Police siren wails]

[Pounding]

[Pounding on door]

What's all this blood?

The entire house is covered in blood, sir.

Constables, go inside and check.

Sir, there's no one inside.

No one in this room either.

What have you done to your wife, man?

Eat it, brother.

Say out that,

What have you done to your wife?

Why are you getting trashed like this?

My madam isn't good human!

Mr Subbarao, bring that fellow here.

Hey...

Hey, give me that photo!

How dare you hit a police officer?

If I lose my mind, I'll even hit my Neha.

Who the hell are you?

[Groans]

Come on, glue it.

Stick Neha's photo.

Come on, do it

Do you think there are b*ll*ts in this?

Don't we know?

It's wrong to hit someone

from behind, isn't it, sister?

Brother, don't hit me

-It's wrong, isn't it?

Here, take your photo.

How dare you raise your hand

against the police?

How many times do I have to

tell you, don't touch my Neha!

[Screams]

I told you not to touch my Neha, didn't I?

I told you!

Don't touch Neha!

How dare you hit me?

Are you mad?

[Overlaps]

[Overlaps]

Don't touch Neha.

Neha...

Neha... Neha...

-Hey, give me that baton.

Since when have you

been working with them?

From the day they moved in here after

their marriage, I've been working for them.

He used to beat her

and burn her with cigarettes.

Because of him,

Neha lost all happiness.

I've never seen a

psycho sadist like him before.

Every day there would be shouting

and chaos from their house.

We couldn't even sleep

peacefully at night.

When I once asked him

about the work, he tried to hit me.

Poor Neha, she endured everything

because she had no one to support her.

He misbehaved with another girl.

When I questioned him,

he hit me with a beer bottle.

When I tried to dismiss him,

he blackmailed me using my personal video.

That day, when Neha came home,

that's when the fight began.

I think he must have

done something to her.

Is Karthik your son?

-Yes.

What happened to him?

Nothing happened to him

but his wife is missing.

Neighbours complained

after hearing Neha screaming.

When we reached the house,

it was covered in blood.

There was only Karthik there, no Neha.

When we asked him what

he'd done, he didn't respond.

So we arrested Karthik.

-He k*lled her.

Karthik k*lled her.

Neha used to say she hated him.

But I forced her to marry him

because I loved my son.

I thought he would become

stable and live well with Neha.

I never imagined

he would do this, wastrel.

I'm the one who k*lled her.

Madam...

Since he attacked police officers on duty,

under Sections 152, 334, and 335(B),

he faces three years' imprisonment.

After reviewing the evidence...

it's clear Karthik's

mental state is unstable.

The court has ordered treatment

for his condition.

As Neha is still missing...

the court has directed the police to

locate her urgently and close the case.

Idiot never changed the way

he looked at women, being futile!

[Stuttering] I didn't k*ll Neha!

I didn't k*ll Neha!

Neha is alive, Karthik.

Neha?

Let me tell you a story,

one filled with twists and turns.

There are three main characters.

#1 is Gautham, #2 is Neha.

And the third... is you.

There's one more crucial role

in this story.

That's me.

Gautham and I have been

friends since our college days.

They told me they were in love

and planned to marry soon.

Then I went for SI training.

When I returned, I found out

that you had married Neha.

When I tried to understand what happened,

I lost contact with Gautham as well.

Later, Gautham called me

and said he wanted to meet Neha.

Neha?

Gautham!

[Crying]

I came to know about your marriage

after we returned from Mumbai,

after my dad's operation.

I was shattered then.

Maybe love doesn't always need a reason

but walking away always does.

You must have had your reasons.

I respected them and stayed quiet.

I don't know whether you married

Karthik out of love or fear.

But I came here to find out

whether you were happy with him or not.

You're happy, aren't you, Neha?

He's a psycho, Gautham.

Calm down.

[Crying]

Gautham, ask Neha to file

a case against Karthik.

He doesn't deserve to stay free.

From day one, I've been living in fear.

Despite hating him, I married him

because I feared he would k*ll

my father-in-law,

He violated me many

times without my consent.

Neha...

I couldn't tell anyone this, Gautham.

Despite all his t*rture,

the only reason I stayed was...

because he might k*ll you

or my father-in-law.

Since childhood

I was nothing more than a toy to him

And he deserves to

live like that toy as well.

We deliberately hid Neha for a week,

knowing you would go

mad without seeing her.

You assaulted your maid

when you couldn't find Neha.

When Neha returned home,

you beat her until she nearly died,

then got drunk.

After that,

Soumya took Neha to a safe place.

Since Neha was missing,

a complaint was filed against you.

Since you assaulted police officers,

that case was added too.

The court needed to see your true nature,

didn't it?

That's why I went to your village,

met your father and your colleagues,

gathered evidence,

and submitted everything to the court.

I made sure you were sent to an asylum,

because you need treatment,

not just punishment.

Ten days after you were admitted,

I presented Neha before the court.

She told everything,

how you tortured her.

The lady judge, Mrs Jyothi,

who already knew your history,

granted Neha a divorce

without your consent.

Look how happy she is now, look at her!

"Within my heart..."

"A lightning spark has struck"

"The dream I once imagined

Now stands before me as reality"

"My whole soul trembles with excitement"

"My heart is filled with joy,

This very moment has lit up"

"Am I floating in the sky

Or smiling all day long"

"Lost in thoughts of you

With tears of happiness"

"Within my heart

A lightning spark has struck"

Wanting happiness for someone

you love is called love.

Wanting them even against their

will is called lust.

What they have is love;

that's why they're together.

What you wanted was control;

that's why you're here in an asylum.

[Music]

Neha!!
