Viduthalai Part 2 (2024)

[bunniefuu]

Finish the work quickly.

Everyone will be safe

with god's blessing.

Thank you, brother.

If you are caught, don't reveal that

the sickle is made in our workshop.

- Okay brother.

- We will lose our lives too.

Snake that wraps us around

will not go without hurting.

This happened to my grandmother.

Don't cry mother.

Things will be different from today.

And I thought it would stop

in my daughter's period...

Hey son!

They forged it!

Karuppa, where are

you going at this hour?

Tell us where!

What took you this

long Kuttiyappa?

It took time to

sharpen the sickle.

A sharp edge will let the sickle

pierce through the bones and k*ll.

Dad, where are you going?

- Hey!

Why are you standing in the rain?

Everyone get back to home.

Don't ask where I'm going.

- Take me with you

- Karuppa!

What is it Kuttiyappa?

If we hack that guy today,

his son will come tomorrow.

He is an inhuman person.

He will not let anyone

in the village alive, son.

That scares me.

I understand Kuttiyappa.

You have your wife...

and the children.

- You stay back. We will take care.

- Hey children...

...don't get soaked up in the rain.

Get inside the home.

Look here, Kuttiyappa...

Young fellows are

going alone in the rain.

Are you going to sit

and hatch eggs here?

- Man up and go with them.

- Hey!

Hey wait, I will come with you.

Kuttiyappa...

Why are the school

lights lit at this time?

Looks like union members,

village heads and the elders

are in a meet together.

Yes,

Mentor would've brought

the union members to...

talk with the village elders.

(V/O) Every journey begins

at a simple point.

Many a times...

The journey begins from a far

different space from where it is to end.

Mentor Perumals journey too...

started from one such point, mother.

Hey Karuppa...

Where are you

going at this hour?

It's nothing, Mentor.

Kuttiyappa had

a sacrificial goat.

(V/O) That sickle made

in the workshop that night,

and what Karuppan did with it,

is the beginning of the events,

where today, authorities,

with thousands of police like me,

searched for him as a

t*rror1st and arrested him.

Be in alert until

Chief Secretary and Collector leave.

- Here.

- Sir.

Everything is under control, sir.

Our team will take him

till the Railway station.

- RPF will take over from there.

- Subbiah? Are you leaving?

Yes, sir.

- DSP is on the line to pass an important...

- It's my daughter's birthday tomorrow.

information to the SP.

- If I start now, I can reach home by morning.

How old is she now?

She is turning fifteen sir.

- Then has she finished Prathmik or Madhyama?

- Sir, DSP is on line.

- Sir, we don't have...

- Yes, coming.

- people who can teach Hindi in our village.

- Disperse.

I am to take further steps.

We should set an example to others

here, by making our children learn Hindi.

Yes, Sunil.

Sir, today evening,

with a constable's tip off,

we went on a raid

to Kelamparai village.

We have arrested Perumal.

Sunil is on mic sir.

He says they have arrested Perumal.

- Hey.

- Sir?

Call up CM sir's house.

So finally,

the ghost is no longer a ghost.

But just an old man...

who is called Perumal.

I was never a ghost.

I am the people.

We are always

standing in front of you.

But you refuse to see us.

You've made me sit in a

dark room to scare me off.

But I see fear only

in your eyes, Sunil.

Our class liberation

movement of Annihilation

did not bring out this

fear in your system.

Because it had no impact

on your caste structure.

To destruct your caste structure,

when we started to bring people

together through land, race and language...

and if the people accepted

us and followed us,

after that,

you could not gain

political advantage...

with caste, religion,

class differences.

That's when it

started... this fear.

It is in that fear you propagate

us as divisive elements.

Who is divisive element?

Is it you who segregate...

people by birth into upper, lower

and even as bottom of the strata?

Or is it us who fight

for equality, unity...

and deny this division

of upper and lower?

You bloody!

Squad!

Attention.

Hey!

Why did the police enter

the village and opened fire?

Sorry sir. Sunil had sent teams

randomly without expectations.

There was no plan

for such a big arrest.

Why did you do something

like this without planning?

Sir when a team was sent

on an ordinary PC's words..

Hey!

Why wasn't I informed

about the firing?

- Sir he didn't inform even us.

- Sir.

Anger is not going

to change anything.

In such scenarios, things

are bound to happen like this.

You please just leave it sir.

You guys will say "just

leave it" and get away with..

an enquiry, a temporary

suspension and transfer.

I am the one who has to show up at

the village for anything tomorrow.

Sir, nothing has happened

here for you to get this tensed.

Let's deal with it.

How will you deal it man?

A child and a woman is

dead, a man is wounded.

What big deal you

think you can muster?

- Look at the way he is sitting.

- Sir,

We are educated to

handle such situations.

So, are you implying that

I am an uneducated brute?

Hey!

Sir..

- Did you just call me an illiterate brute?

- Sir!

Where did he

say such a thing sir?

Then what's the meaning

of what he said sir?

Sir... if you assume something

that he hasn't said, then what can we do?

So all you educated guys are

ganging up to insult me?

That's not true sir.

I might not be as

educated as you guys are.

But I have studied life from people.

I've have competed

in five terms...

and won three times.

Because an illiterate man

like me put his head on a railway track...

people like you got

the right to educate.

Just because you've changed your

food and the language you speak,

doesn't mean you'll

become part of "them".

This is their problem sir.

Oh!

Whose problems?

- Problem of the illiterate?

- Sir, what is this sir?

- What man?

- Sir.

- You..

- Sir...

- Problem of the illiterate!

- Sir.

Sir don't forget the problem

we are dealing with right now

and get diverted into

petty issues like this.

What do you mean

by petty issue, sir?

You've shot dead a kid.

Whole place is raging.

Is this a petty issue for you?

Let us sit and talk it out sir.

I will not talk to you sir.

I will talk with the Boss.

Okay then talk to him!

You don't tell me that sir.

Go talk to him sir.

You don't tell me

that sir. I'll deal it.

Okay. Go!

Hey, where is the driver?

Chief Secretary, SP, Collector will all

show their arrogance of education to us.

All sitting without respect

when a Minister is standing.

Hey! Where is the driver?

Start the car.

Start the car.

- Sir?

- What?

You've told the Chief Secretary

is very close to our Boss.

What if we leave now and

he twists it up with the leader?

I know that.

You don't f*cking tell

me what I should do.

Sit, sit.

I know very well how much a

Minister is to be respected.

Our current situation is an

absolutely pressurised one sir.

What situation?

We have arrested Perumal.

That's the reason of the firing,

boy's death and everything.

Are you saying that we can start

the mining work without any problems?

I think so.

Why are you upset

over a happy news?

Who arrested him?

For disobeying the

superior's orders,

for not replying to the memo,

Suspension order.

Hey!

I will make sure your name is not

included in Perumal's arrest too.

Go away.

Now, we'll talk?

It takes four men to hit

me and strip me naked

to make you feel like my equal?

Let's talk.

The unbelievable has happened at last.

Yes sir.

He did good, like in

the film 'Leaping Tiger'.

The train you

bombed and derailed,

...the 25 dead in it are

not the people you talk about?

Those peeping through

the window, come here!

Fall in!

We both know what happened.

The system you represent

has no sentiments.

For you it is a mere strategy.

For us it is pain.

Bring that dress.

Hey!

Give it to me.

I'll take it.

Give it to him.

What's your name man?

What are you going to

do with knowing my name?

You should have retired...

and be resting at home.

Do they give you any day off?

Do you get to take your wife

and kids out to fairs or movies?

They must be

working you to death.

But ask them about it...

They would spend every weekend,

taking their families out.

You should do that too.

For that matter...

aren't you all searching for me?

Even I go to theatre

often to watch movies.

There is a Rajendar

movie running

now in our Ganesh cinema hall.

'My beloved Mythili...'

I have watched it.

Good film.

Hey Sunil...

the movie you last watched...

Hey!

Sir, he is being disrespectful

and dancing in front of you.

Go.

- Ezhumalai!

- Sir?

Didn't you apply for leave?

How is your father's health?

They said his days

are numbered sir.

Hey!

Who are you guys?

They said they've came to

sell sarees in the village, sir.

- Hey!

Weren't you the one selling

sarees outside Ganesh cinema hall..

..when the film 'My

Beloved Mythili' was running?

Yes sir.

You cannot be here. Leave.

Okay.

Okay, sir.

Ezhumalai, did

you watch that film?

No, sir.

It was very nice.

You keep waiting at the

back side of the camp.

Once he knows where they

are taking Comrade Perumal,

constable sir will inform you.

Okay comrade.

I will convey the message that the film

'My Beloved Mythili' is said to be good.

Hello.

Nagaraj here.

I watched "My Beloved

Mythili" at Ganesh cinema hall.

- It was good.

- Is that so?

The elders who watched

along with me, said the same.

I will handle it.

What decision was

made while watching,

"My Beloved Mythili" movie

at Ganesh cinema hall?

It was to make news of the

arrest of the main leaders,

when they pass that

information from the inside.

You send this information through telegram

to the High Court and all the press.

I'll do that comrade.

Inform our comrade Pavel,

and ask him to go

to the base camp...

where Comrade

Perumal is detained.

Hello?

Yes sir.

Okay.

Sir, it's a call from the

IG office, Intelligence.

Seems they have sent telegrams to

the high court judge and all the press...

saying we have arrested Perumal

and detained him illegally sir.

Our people are not

politically literate.

But if they realise that their

language and tradition are threatened,

then they will fight

against it on their own.

Even before the

inequalities of caste, religion,

class that we are

fighting against existed,

it was their language and tradition that

made them live together in their land.

When you try to grab it from them...

- Sir.

- SP sir is on the mic.

- they fight against it.

Sunil, how did the news of the

big parcel in the camp leak out?

I don't know sir.

But I am suspicious of a

head constable in this company.

Don't keep the

parcel in the camp.

Move it to a safe place.

Let it be there until

you get further information.
