With 96 percent,
in the 12th standard board exam,
let's welcome on stage,
our student, D. Ragavan
to receive a gold medal for securing
a centum in Computer Science.
Congrats!
He's my son!
That
Bro, I want you to tell me exactly
what happens there. Got it?
All the best! All the best!
- I'll see you later.
- Alright, bye, Monica. I'll see you.
- Anjana.
- Hi, Ragavan!
I got a gold medal in Computer Science.
Superb!
I've secured a seat
at AGS Engineering College.
Wow!
I'm planning to do my master's in the US.
Lovely!
I'm planning to get a job, a green card,
marry and settle there.
I see! Don't forget me
after you get married.
Forget you?
You are the one
I'm planning to marry!
What do you mean?
I love you, Anjana!
Not just recently,
but since the ninth standard.
I always wanted to propose to you
after getting a gold medal.
So, here I am.
See
Ragavan, I don't think we'll work out.
Why not?
What do I lack?
- Is it my looks?
- No, no.
It's not that.
- Forget about it.
- Tell me! I want to know.
Ragavan, you're such a wonderful person.
- But
- Hey, Rambo! What kind of girl
- I like Rambo.
- Me?
I like blonde hair.
You two would look
- great if you go blonde.
- You like him?
- Really?
- Yeah?!
Anjana, he failed in three subjects.
He smokes!
He's a bad boy, Anjana!
Oh!
Actually, I love bad boys.
It would be so cool to have a boyfriend
like that while attending college.
I'm sorry, Ragavan.
I'm sure you'll have a successful future.
Forget it, bro.
There are so many girls out there.
We're going to college soon.
We'll find someone there.
Tell me, Anbu.
They always said girls like boys
who are good and studious.
Isn't that an outright lie, then?
It is, bro.
Let's turn into bad boys.
Okay, done.
We'll enter college
with swag and a fire name!
There's zero fire
in the name "D. Ragavan."
That Ramesh Bopalasamy
struts around, calling himself "Rambo."
Why can't I find a cool name?
Wait, wait. Hang on.
D. Ragavan is your boring name.
Just like how she ditched you,
let's ditch '"ava" from your name.
Replace it with "o,"
and you become fire. Let's go!
What is it, dear?
Why am I doing a master's in AI, Dad?
- It's so boring.
- Come on, dear.
Shouldn't you embrace
futuristic thinking in your life?
Ten years down the line,
everything will be AI.
Whatever. Come home for the weekend.
Let's start painting our new home.
- Okay, love you, bye, Dad.
- Okay, dear. Love you!
- Hi, I'm Gayathri, IT department.
- Okay, I'm in IT too.
Oh.
- Are you also in IT?
- Hi!
- I'm Vetri. I'm in IT as well.
- Hi.
Hi!
- Hi.
- You're right.
Now I request our principal,
Mr. Mayilvahanan sir,
to address the gathering.
AGS is a donation-free college.
Only those who worked
hard in the 12th grade
and secured 95 percent or above
can get a seat in this college.
All of you,
who worked hard
and are here
after scoring more than 95 percent
Colleges usually impose restrictions
on girls and boys
talking or forming friendships.
But this college has no such rules.
You can talk to each other.
You can be friendly.
Falling in love is allowed too.
Marriage is permitted too.
Because I believe
college is not just a place
to build your career.
It is also a place to build
your friendship
and healthy relationships.
All hail the principal!
Coming to the point.
Typically, on Fresher's Day,
colleges talk about
their successful alumni.
Because that's the inspiring story.
But I'm not going to do that.
I'm going to talk about
one of the biggest failures
to graduate from this college.
You know why?
Why?
Hearing his story
is a cautionary tale
of what not to become.
He entered securing 96 percent.
And left this college with 48 arrears.
That failure is
Drag, drag, drag, Dragon!
Drag, drag, drag, Dragon!
Hey!
How dare you touch me for
looking at the girls, rascal?
Where's Dragon?
Beat everyone up!
Dragon!
Hey, where are you running to?
How is it?
Damn, those curves are k*lling me!
Idiot. How's the tattoo?
Oh! It's alright.
When are you planning
to tattoo my name?
- You wish!
- Why not?
I can't remove it if I
end up with another girl.
Hey! How dare you?
- You'll break up with me?
- No, no. I won't!
If you dare to break up with me
- I'll k*ll you!
- Hey!
Dragon!
Dragon
What is it, Pambu?
Guys from other colleges
are teasing our girls.
They're attacking Anbu
for standing up to them.
And here you are, busy being romantic.
Come down, you jerk!
Ragavan Don't go. You already have
enough cases against you.
One more mistake and the principal
will surely suspend you.
To hell with that guy!
You know how much my boys mean to me.
Dragon!
Oh, yeah!
- Get lost!
- Hey, buddy!
Scoundrel!
Who the hell are you, man?
How dare you beat up our boys?
I'll break your bones.
Hey!
You're crossing the line, man!
Ragavan, this is too much.
I'll inform the higher-ups
and get you dismissed!
- Sorry, sir. I mistook you for a student.
- Do I look like a student to you?
Really?
Getting hit by this guy?
Round him up, boys!
He's toying with
the fire extinguisher, bro.
Then snatch it from him.
Making a scene with that?
Caught you now!
Give it back to him, boys!
Keep it!
He's trying to escape.
Pick up the pace.
Hurry! Get up!
- Juice.
- Have it.
- He's happily drinking juice over there.
- Hey, Dragon! They are coming!
Catch him!
Hey!
Hey!
Can't believe a twig like you
made us run for our lives!
I'll chop you to bits.
Hey
- Does it burn?
- Hey! It does.
- It burns. It's hot.
- It will if you tease girls.
Yes, it burns.
- Hey!
- Get lost.
Run, run. Get lost!
"The fundamental points of the"
Studying even during the culturals?
Moron!
He won't spare us at all!
All of you are
What are you all doing here
during class hours?
Get back to your classes.
Hey. I had suspended you.
- Go home.
- Okay.
- Hey, wait.
- Wait!
Don't act smart!
Sir, we fought too.
You warn us, but suspend him?
Why the bias?
I've given him enough warnings.
Let me ask you something.
What's your attendance percentage?
- Seventy percent, sir.
- His is only two percent.
Do you think he'll excel
if I let him in?
He won't even step out
of that hostel.
What do you do there anyway?
Sir, he has 43 arrears to clear.
He studies there, sir.
Impossible!
Sir, his future depends
on clearing his arrears
in the final semester.
Please understand, sir.
Please!
Okay.
I don't want to spoil his future.
I'll give him one chance.
- I'll lift his suspension.
- Thank God!
On one condition, though.
You must attend all classes
over the next three months
with 100 percent attendance.
Bunk one class
and I won't issue your hall ticket.
- If you're up for this--
- Sir, sir!
How much is forty-three plus five, Anbu?
Forty-eight, bro.
Damn!
No engineer in history
has had 48 arrears, right?
- No.
- Then let me be the first!
I'm not going to accomplish anything
by following all your conditions
and getting this damn degree.
This is all yours!
Bye!
- Hey, don't leave.
- Listen to me.
- Hey!
- Bugger off!
- Ragavan
- To heck with your rules.
For the first time, I saw someone
choose the road to failure.
My dear students
A degree is the foundation of your life.
If you earn it by studying hard,
you'll have a successful future.
If you're reckless like him
you might live it up on campus.
But when you step out
into the real world,
no one will respect you.
The choice is yours.
- Welcome to the AGS Engineering College.
- Excuse me, sir!
If you don't mind,
can you tell me
what he's up to now?
As if I don't have better things to do.
Do you think he's living it up
in America?
He's probably picking rags
on some street.
Here, son.
Enough, Dad.
Wait.
You're going to work.
You should look fresh and neat.
- Enough, Mom.
- One more bite.
You'll perform better if you eat well.
You're all skeleton already!
Won't they ask you why
you aren't prim and proper?
They don't pay me for my hair.
- It's for the brain inside.
- Yeah, right!
- Here you go.
- Yes.
Dear.
- Yes, Dad.
- Your degree certificate
Why do you ask, Dad?
You're the first in our family
to earn a degree.
See the empty frame there?
He's waiting to hang it up.
But you haven't even shown it to us!
I've told you the company has it,
and they won't give it now.
Why?
Dad, what's my salary?
Twenty thousand.
After deduction, 18,000.
If I switch companies now,
I'll earn 30,000 rupees for my talent.
Oh, my!
You should switch immediately.
Yes. What does the company do
to keep their employees in place?
They come for campus interviews,
hire us at a low salary,
make us sign a two-year contract,
and keep our certificates.
We gladly accept it, believing
we were chosen before leaving college.
- They are wicked!
- They really are, Dad!
Ragava?
Switch on the motor, please.
Okay, owner.
It's been 20 years,
you still call me "owner."
- I'm used to it, owner!
- Don't forget to take your lunch box.
- Wear your helmet.
- Sure, Dad.
- Vendor?
- Tell me.
I'll take one kg of tomatoes
and some curry leaves, please.
Sure. Tomatoes are fresh.
It would have been better
if I had never gone with him.
- Wait for me.
- Hurry up!
Here you go.
I will get your wicket.
- Welcome, sir.
- Pambu!
Why don't you get lost!
Hope you remember
the plan for this evening.
Yes!
- Mr. Bunty.
- Yes?
- Don't forget the plan for this evening.
- Okay.
- It's so hot.
- Baby
- I'm coming, Pambu.
- Shall we go to Ooty this weekend?
Ooty?
It would be so much fun
with the cool climate there.
I'm totally broke.
- I'll take care of the expenses.
- Are you sure?
So, buddy
Is it Pushpa, Reshma, or Karishma?
- Who was that? Dragon?
- I'm talking to my girlfriend.
Oh, it's your girlfriend!
Hey, playboy!
- Don't forget about the evening.
- Okay!
Hey, are you all out of your minds?
Why are you throwing
the cigarette waste on our balcony?
- No, sir!
- How dare you accuse me of lying?
- My friends don't smoke.
- Don't try to fool me.
- This isn't working.
- Please go ahead and talk to the owner.
- He knows about us.
- Hey, listen to me.
I'm calling him right away
and will get the association involved.
You know you guys must be sent out--
Moron!
Throw it in here after you smoke.
Why do you throw it out?
The association is yelling at me.
- Move.
- Sorry! Sorry, sorry
- Don't forget about the evening plans.
- You've told me a zillion times!
I remember. Move!
Anbu
I asked you to increase
the internet speed. Did you do it?
Of course. Damn it!
- The people I have to deal with!
- That's my boy!
I asked to sweep, but like a lazy person
Good morning.
Day 69.
Morning. 11:30.
Hello, sister.
One who knows Tamil
That day didn't you say
you don't know Tamil?
Still asking you
about an idea for cooking.
Me too.
Move your legs, please.
They're telecasting them
fighting for an hour.
All they show is the players
eating, sleeping, and so on.
You're watching this all day.
Don't you get bored?
This is the only place where they air
all the fights without any censorship.
- Oh!
- It's started.
Fight more.
More, more.
Come on.
Yes, yes.
Such a freak!
Very sunny.
I'll end up tanning like Dad
if I go out now.
- Hello?
- Yes, baby.
Why are you calling
in the middle of class?
- Just like that. What are you doing?
- I was watching this reality show.
I'm planning to sh**t some reels
once the sun sets.
Oh, okay.
Shall we meet tonight?
- Tonight?
- Yes.
- Sure.
- Okay. Bye!
- Ba Baby
- What?
Order a 65 biryani for me on Foodie.
Will do.
Baby, wait. Wait.
Also, order mint cigarettes on Instamart.
A pack of 20.
- Okay, bye.
- Love you, baby.
You followed me
Your piercing gaze struck me deep
My dreams unfolded
Many women came my way
Hoping to capture my heart
But it was you I fell for!
Soft breeze swirls around
Lungi lifted, thighs unleashed!
Bro, your 65 biryani
and your mint cigarette.
- Thank you. Okay.
- Please rate me well.
Here we go. A big bite of 65 biryani.
Only for you, friends!
It tastes okay.
First comment.
Yes!
Sir. Office time is over.
Please leave.
Oh, sh*t!
You brought it, right?
Thank God!
Eighteen thousand rupees.
Count it.
Dad, here's my salary.
Eighteen thousand after deductions, Dad.
Are you not even a little bit ashamed?
Why must I be, playboy?
All you do is lie on your back
watch reality shows,
sh**t reels outside, lie down again
shoving a fan up your butt,
extort money from us
and lie at home that it's your salary.
- How do you not feel one ounce of shame?
- What is this, Anbu?
I'm not stealing your money.
I do pay you back, don't I?
- I'll keep it in the prayer room.
- Dad.
Yes.
I've taken life insurance
in both of your names.
I must pay 8,000 rupees for it
this month, Dad.
Oh.
Here.
Dad
I've enrolled in an online course
to take my career to the next level.
I need 6,000 rupees for it, Dad.
Oh.
- Is that all?
- Dad, Dad
- It's your birthday next month.
- Yes.
I made a vow to offer a charity meal
at the Kolavizhi Amman temple.
- Good.
- I need 4,000 bucks for that.
Here, keep it.
Why do you even give your salary
if you're just going to take it back?
- Stop it.
- Why?
Who even gives their salary
to their parents these days?
Our son is an exception.
His salary isn't the issue.
- It's his work that matters.
- Okay. Okay.
Buddy, instead of
putting on this drama
why don't you get a job
at Zomato, Uber, or a call center
and actually support your family?
Bunty
- I can't work for such a cheap salary.
- Then what?
I'm an engineering graduate, bro!
- Oh!
- I'll only go if it's a high-profile job.
You're an engineer
only when you clear those 48 arrears.
Until then, you're only a 12th-grader.
- For you, this job--
- Just stop it.
It's been only two years since I completed
college. Why talk about work now?
What's the urgency?
Life is big, dude!
Let's take some time.
- Okay, fine.
- Shut your gob, man!
- Hello.
- Baby, Ooty
Pambu, Anbu
You all sleep in the hall.
I'm coming with my girl tonight.
I need the AC room.
You don't pay rent.
You use this house like a motel.
No issues.
Live your life happily.
At least, earn something
to spend for that girl.
Fair point.
You spend your entire salary
on the family.
What will you do for your expenses?
- I'll take the bus
- No, no. Don't.
I've 4,000 left from my salary.
- Here. Keep this.
- No need, Dad.
Will that do?
Sorry, baby. I was held up.
Seems like it'll rain
heavily today.
- Sister
- Yes, sir.
Clear this and bring me
a filter coffee, piping hot.
And give the bill to madam.
Sure, sir.
- Don't you always like cold coffee?
- I do.
If we don't go with the season,
I'll catch a fever.
Correct.
What is it?
You always say you won't
call me during class.
Yet, you called today?
Did you miss me a lot?
I skipped college today.
Why?
Are you sick?
- No, I'm okay.
- Then?
I got an arranged marriage
proposal today.
Dang it!
Does your dad have
nothing else to do?
He keeps bringing prospects home!
Isn't this the fifth one?
- Scumbag.
- Ragavan!
Fine, I won't call him that again.
So, who was the prospect today?
Deepak.
He's from Coimbatore.
He's a math professor
- at Delhi University.
- Oh!
So, you're an M.E. lecturer,
and he's a professor?
This combination is just perfect!
So, what excuse did you
use to reject him?
- Did you say he looked too old?
- He looks smart.
Did he refuse to live
without his parents?
He's okay with that too.
His salary's under a lakh, right?
He earns one lakh twenty thousand.
- He doesn't own a house?
- He owns two.
- He doesn't have a car.
- He owns an Audi.
Looks like you used all your
rejection cards. How'd you do it then?
You're right.
I had no reason to reject him.
Which is why I said
I'd think about it.
The coffee is hot, sir.
Be careful.
Madam, your bill.
Hey!
What's there to think about?
There is.
There's plenty.
I'm your boyfriend, damn it!
How can you even think of
someone else when I'm here?
Don't shout.
You're ditching me,
and you expect me to comfort you
instead of losing it?!
Ragavan, sit.
Everyone's staring.
It's embarrassing!
Embarrassing?!
You're ditching me to
marry another guy.
You're a disgrace!
Disgrace?
You're a disgrace!
- It's you who's a disgrace!
- How dare you call me that?
You have been sitting at home
unemployed for two years.
You're a disgrace!
Then why did you come after
this nobody in college?
Go on. Tell me.
Did I propose to you? It was you.
You proposed to me!
Yes, I did.
I did come after you like a puppy.
In college, you seemed so cool to me.
I fell madly in love with you.
At that age and with that maturity,
nothing else mattered to me.
But once we graduated,
I saw the reality.
What fricking reality did you see?
That you can be a good lover,
but not the right life partner.
But why?
Because you're a failure, Ragavan!
I'm afraid I'll become a failure
like you in the future.
Hey!
We've dated for six years!
Are you calling me a
failure just to ditch me?
Hit me.
Hit me as much as you want
But let me go.
Please!
Keerthi!
Keerthi!
Keerthi, this isn't cold coffee to
keep switching with seasons.
It's our love.
I don't want this love, Ragavan.
Just leave me.
- Auto?
- Keerthi, please.
Ditching someone
isn't the right thing to do.
It's wrong.
Yes, it's wrong!
If this one wrong can guarantee
a lifetime of happiness,
then it's worth it!
If you dare break up with me
I'll k*ll you.
Your 799 bucks t-shirt looks good!
Buddy, she sent me a hi!
I love you!
In a moment
You broke my soul apart
Ripped the masterpiece
I painted with my heart!
You laughed, but the pain remains
Your scars cut deep like chains!
You made the hands that sowed
Uproot the love that once flowed!
Were the dreams
We dreamt together just lies?
Were all the words
You spoke mere disguise?
With tears in my eyes
And a pain so sharp
Ask you now
As you tear my heart!
Why did you say
You'd stay till death?
Were they just words
Empty as breath?
Why did you leave me?
Is your heart made of stone?
Why did you leave me?
I don't understand!
Why did you leave me?
I'm dying inside!
Why did you leave me?
It hurts so deep!
Negative aspects of
information technology fundamentals.
While
I deserve this pain for loving you!
I deserve this ache
For holding you near!
I deserve this for trusting you
For believing your lies
Were something true!
I fell into the depths of your eyes
Like a helpless fly
Drawn to light in the skies!
My soul burned and melted away
It's a goop of love in disarray!
If you leave me
My world won't turn!
I'll be alone to crash and burn!
Now I'm lost in the shadows
Of endless night!
Through endless time
I'll wander through
Until my soul finds its way to you!
Buddy, he seems furious.
- Try teasing him.
- Hey, Dragon.
You said you'd come back with your
girlfriend, but you've come alone?
The room's all cold and cozy.
Why are you upset, pal?
Did your girlfriend ditch you
or something?
Forget it, buddy.
If I were your girl,
I'd have done it long ago.
- Hey, buddy.
- Hey! Hey, Dragon.
- Hey, hey.
- Let it go.
- Buddy, Dragon.
- Hey, buddy!
Hey, Dragon!
Calm down.
What are you doing?!
Why did you leave me?
Is your heart made of stone?
Why did you leave me?
I don't understand!
Why did you leave me?
I'm dying inside!
Why did you leave me?
It hurts so deep!
Why, oh, why did you leave me?
You dug a hole and
Buried my heart deep!
Why, oh, why did you leave me?
I'm alive, but what's life without you?
A lifeless echo!
- Did he drink and ride?
- He wasn't drunk, madam.
Even if he did, he'd remain steady.
But we have no idea
how he passed out.
When was the last time you slept?
Since his damn breakup,
he's barely slept for three months.
Lack of sleep will
definitely make you dizzy.
It's by God's grace
you only hurt yourself a little.
What if a bus or lorry
was behind you?
Advise him enough
so that he'll listen!
Get some sleep.
Next time something like this happens,
stop what you're doing
and give your eyes ten minutes of rest.
That's all.
- Nurse?
- Okay, doctor.
Look, I'm speaking from
my own experience.
Stop ruining yourself this way
and focus on being successful in life.
The right person will find you soon.
Good luck!
Because you're a failure, Ragavan!
Focus on being successful in life.
Anbu
- Forget her and get some rest, man.
- Anbu?
Wake up, all of you!
- What is it?
- Man, he woke us up!
I want to be successful
as soon as possible.
Alright, you can.
Now, sleep.
Hey!
What salary did she say?
One lakh, twenty thousand, right?
I need to find a job that
pays me just a rupee more!
What? You want a job that pays you
- one lakh twenty thousand and one rupee?
- Buddy
It takes a decade in my company
to get a salary like that.
My company pays the same
for just four years of experience, pal.
You numbskulls!
You're talking about experience
to a guy without a degree.
We go through hell and back,
with a degree, to earn just 30,000.
You think they're waiting for the Highness
to arrive before granting your request?
First, clear your arrears
and get your degree,
- then--
- I neither have the time nor the interest!
I want to become successful right now.
Alright!
Close your eyes,
dream away as you wish,
and success will just come in a song.
Guys, let's sleep.
- Hey, catch
- Catch it!
That was an easy catch!
Why didn't you catch it?
- Bro, sorry.
- It's okay.
Bro
I'm new to this area
and I love cricket. Can I join?
No, bro.
The team is already full.
- We'll see next week.
- Bro
- Oh.
- You play in my place.
- Go on.
- Fine, join us, bro.
- Go on, go on. Bowl.
- Superb.
- Superb!
- Yeah, nice.
- Superb, bro.
- Superb.
Superb, bro.
- Stand there.
- Is this okay?
- What is this?
- Goutham bro, have a good game.
- That's it. Superb!
- What a shot!
- Goutham, what a shot!
- That was great.
You're the one, bro.
Goutham bro
You've been added
to our cricket group.
From now on,
it's match time every week.
Also, I'll share my location
in the group.
Bring the boys home,
and we'll party.
- Okay?
- Sure, bro.
- Thank you.
- Bye, bro.
- Yes, let's party!
- Stop making a fool of yourselves, guys.
- Boys! This is my wife, Sherin.
- Hi!
These are my friends,
I met them on the ground today, babe.
- Hi.
- Let's drink?
- Yeah, sure.
- At last, bro!
I'll have a whiskey, madam.
- Whiskey is good. Cheers!
- Cheers!
- Cheers!
- Hey, where are you going?
- What's up with him--
- Chuck him. Let's drink.
- Long drive and a drink
- Pambu Pambu!
- Funny!
- Pambu, tell that story.
- All of them
- Anbu, what will you have?
Honey, I'm tired.
- Alright.
- I'll go and sleep.
Good night, baby!
- You guys have fun all night. Okay?
- Bro
- Good night!
- In a world full of stubborn wives,
an understanding wife
like her is a real gift.
That's alright.
- Here's my glass.
- Fine, okay.
Goutham bro
- Don't get me wrong.
- Yeah?
You're living your best life!
- Goutham has great taste.
- Buddy
don't they make the perfect couple?
- Hey!
- Don't you want this life?
Yes, bro?
Why is he always alone?
Does he have some problem?
The guys told me you had a breakup.
I understand your pain.
But, you have to move on.
She called me to meet casually
and then suddenly called me a failure,
broke up with me,
and married someone else.
I don't get it.
It might've been
all of a sudden for you,
but she must've decided
a long time ago.
Get rid of all this
and try to settle down in life.
I too dream of a successful life
with a car, house, everything,
just like you.
But to do that, I need my degree.
I must clear all my arrears to do that.
- All that
- Hand me that cigarette.
Pambu Pambu!
I have 35 arrears.
How did you clear it all?
The hell I did!
How is all of this possible then?
I walked into a consultancy,
and they printed a fake degree
and got me a job too.
That's it.
My life changed in three years!
Isn't it
wrong?
It is!
If that one wrong can change your life,
then it's worth making that mistake.
Can I have their contact number?
Ragavan.
You may go.
We can assure you
of 100 percent placement.
Take one!
Hey, Ragavan. Come.
Sit.
After getting her degree,
she attempted suicide because
she couldn't find a good job.
She joined our
two-month training program.
She got a job successfully.
To see her leave happily
fills my heart with joy.
So, Ragavan.
How do you know about our company?
Sir, Mr. Goutham referred me.
Which Goutham are you talking about?
Isn't that the guy with 35 arrears?
That fraud referred you?
Guess you must be a fraud as well.
How many do you have?
Forty-eight, sir.
Forty-eight?!
Which college are you from?
AGS Engineering College.
- How did they even admit you?
- Sir
I scored 96 percent in my 12th.
Oh! You're one of those who go all rogue
once you get into college?
- Fine, what do you want?
- Sir
I need a job which pays me
1,20,001 rupees every month.
Starting off small?
Can be done.
So, isn't your college
a deemed university?
No, it's affiliated with university.
Listen, we are engaging in
fraudulent practices to get a job for you.
- If you get caught
- Sir!
You won't get caught.
There's a 99 percent chance you won't.
In case, you get caught
To prove that you and I
aren't connected in any way,
I want you to pay the bill in cash.
Ten thousand rupees!
- Okay, I'll--
- It's ten lakhs, you blind bat!
- How can I get that big an amount?
- Hey.
To print an original certificate
in your name,
we must pay two lakhs to our source
inside the university.
The process doesn't end there.
You want a high salary,
but you don't want to spend much?
Go, get the money ready.
Next!
It's a 20-floor building
under construction.
They construct big buildings
on weak foundations.
Four to five buildings collapsed
this year, right?
- Serve him the piece.
- I did. This is your share.
- Dad?
- Yes, son.
I found a job with
a monthly salary of one lakh.
Dad?
I'm just too shocked to speak.
- Really? A lakh?
- Yes, Dad.
I'm really proud of you!
Why are you sharing such
good news with a sad face?
Dear, go ward off
the evil eye on him!
Wait a minute, dear.
Hey!
Aren't you on a two-year contract
with your current employer?
- How will they suddenly relieve you?
- That's right.
You're right.
- There's a way, Dad.
- What is it, dear?
That contract can be closed
with a fine amount.
What's the fine, son?
Ten lakhs, Dad.
No need for all that.
Just keep doing your current job.
That's enough for now.
Mom, have you lost it?
Do you know how much
of a difference it makes?
Where do you think
the money will come from?
- Dear--
- Stay quiet, will you!
Your college fee drained his pocket dry,
along with that Duke bike of yours.
Even your trips and
other expenses were on us.
I even pawned my nuptial chain.
Oh, God.
As our only son, we wanted
to protect you from struggles,
but you never understood ours.
Why do you keep burdening us
with expenses?!
Son
It's because of missed chances
like this that we're stuck in
this hellhole of a house.
We don't even own it!
Mom, keep your money.
I don't need a single penny from you.
I'll stay here my whole life and
- rot till the very end!
- Son?
Chithra
Oh, my.
Please eat, dear.
I don't want to.
It's our son who fought with us.
So let it go.
Remember how, for seven years,
we spared no God to have him?
Here. Eat.
You're trying to commit fraud, and
on top of that, you fought with them?
I pity them.
I'm already pissed,
so just shut up.
Be pissed or take a piss,
I couldn't care less.
But, let me tell you something.
You're lucky to have such parents.
He's our blessing.
Who else does he have but us?
We'll somehow arrange for the money.
Fine, dear.
But, how?
Would you like some tea, Dhanapal?
- I'm good, sir.
- And you, madam?
No, sir.
What's wrong, Dhanapal?
You've already sold all your land
for your son's education.
If you sell this last piece too,
won't you lose your final connection
to our hometown?
What's more important
than my son, sir?
Whatever!
You keep running after him.
I hope he doesn't
cut you off in the end.
Here, check the amount.
Son, here's the money
you asked for.
Thanks, Dad.
Be careful, son.
Keep it safe.
Okay, we'll start the process.
- All these are basics
- Ragavan.
It'll take a week to get
your degree certificate.
After which we'll apply to a US-based
company called Lateral View.
Because it's the only place that
pays over a lakh for freshers.
There are three rounds in total,
and the first two are written tests.
My team will clear those
written tests for you.
Mark will train you
for the proxy interview.
- Mark, train him.
- Come, bro.
Come, bro, sit.
Bro, what is a proxy interview?
Simple, bro.
This setup right here
is your home now.
From here,
we'll attend the interview
through a video call.
From there, when the interviewer
asks you questions,
I'll be the one answering.
You just need to confidently
sync with my voice on screen.
Since it's tough,
I'm going to train you.
- You mean like TikTok lip-syncing?
- Yeah, kind of.
Just tell me when the interview is.
Hey, Naveen.
I'm waiting for your report.
Sure, sir.
Hello, Ragavan.
I'm Vale.
Vice President, Lateral View.
Hello, Vale.
Pleased to meet you.
You seem very confident, Ragavan.
I'm very well-prepared.
So, it's showing on my face.
Great!
Ragavan
let me hear you introduce yourself.
I passed out with distinction
from my college.
And I'm proud to say
I'm the first
to have a degree from my family.
Ragavan, I know you're speaking,
but I'm hearing your voice
slightly before you actually speak.
Can you come forward a bit?
Please come forward.
Hey, move.
Must be an internet issue.
- Is it okay now?
- Yeah.
Slightly better.
So, you've mentioned in your resume that,
your final year project
was on the fingerprint voting system.
Can you talk about that?
Yes, sure.
One vote can change
the fate of a nation.
So, to prevent cheating during--
Have some water, Ragavan.
So, to prevent
cheating during voting
I created a fingerprint
voting system using Python code.
Speaking of cheating,
why don't you show me
around your room?
Sure, why not?
- Okay?
- Sorry, Ragavan.
There are so many fake
interviews these days.
I had to check.
Oh, shucks.
Is it?
Oh, yes.
Anyway, coming back to the interview
Can you write the Python code
that you used to
develop the interface of your project?
Yes, sure.
- Good enough?
- Yeah.
Good.
Also, you know we are
a US-based company.
Are you willing to settle in the US,
leaving your motherland?
I'm willing to leave even my mother!
Because, work is worship.
- You're funny.
- My friends say that.
Okay, coming to the last part
What salary are you expecting?
- Fourteen lakhs per annum.
- Sixt--
Sixteen lakhs per annum.
I'll k*ll you.
Sixteen lakhs?
Why must I pay a fresher
so much, Ragavan?
Vale, you're not hiring
a human to do your job.
You're hiring a machine
that can do the job of five humans!
- I'm impressed.
- I know.
Nice, Ragavan.
- I'll send your offer letter.
- Oh, wow!
Welcome to Lateral View.
Thank you, Vale.
My buddy!
My sweet little brainiac.
- What, Ragavan? Are you happy?
- Sir!
Sir, 16 lakhs!
I'm earning more
than her husband!
- Crazy guy.
- You've changed my life, boss.
- You're my everything!
- Getting the job isn't the important part.
If you don't perform well,
they'll throw you out in a month!
- Correct.
- So, learn it.
Learn your job well.
All the best!
This is your place.
Team, this is Ragavan.
Let's welcome him,
and make him feel comfortable. Okay?
- Hi!
- Hi!
It's the rise of the Dragon!
He's fire, he's fire!
Oh, he's fire, he's fire
Where it starts, none can see
Rise up, rise up
Come to me!
Burning high, no end in sight
Come on strong, shine so bright!
Good job.
Good job, Ragavan.
Who we are now?
We'll never know
Rise up, rise up
Let it show!
A name, a place
Whispered one day
Look ahead, be alert
Come what may
Life's a battle
A royal path to stay
But change is coming
Watch it sway
Push the edge, ignite the flame
Who will win?
Who claims the name?
Drag, drag, drag, Dragon!
Little boy but a demon within
All around, the fun begins
Set the goal, shift the gear
Victory's close, it's coming near
Drag, drag, drag, Dragon!
No disguise, the demon's real
All they see is the fiery deal
Marked his map, chose the route
Watch him roar, hear him shout!
Please come in, sir.
Do you like it, Dad?
It looks like a palace.
How much does it cost?
It'll be a crore, including
the registration, madam.
It's 40 kilometers away
from the city,
- and you're asking for a crore?
- Mom
If you get the same house in the city,
it would cost four crores.
For us, a crore is a huge amount.
Listen, Ragavan,
don't be a spendthrift!
Why do you always complain?
The bank is giving us a loan.
We only need to pay
90 thousand a month,
and it can be paid off in 30 years.
We'll manage with
the two and half lakhs I earn.
- No, I don't feel good about this.
- Wait, dear.
Won't his wife want to live comfortably
when he gets married?
This will work out.
Son, can we start
looking for a bride for you,
or are you in love with someone?
Love?
There's no place for such things
in my life anymore, Dad.
You find a girl who
you think is suitable for me.
Dragon
Your words gather a crowd to hear
- Your walk sparks joy, they cheer
- Dragon!
Jealousy burns, it's hard to bear
Even friends change, beware
- Ragavan?
- Yeah?
Can we go out on a date?
Are you in love with me?
Yeah.
I've lost interest in love.
My focus is on work.
Sorry.
Classes rise in chaos
Loud and clear
Loss turns to mass, victory's near
We really like this girl, son.
But I don't like her, Dad.
As if you're a Romeo.
What's wrong with her?
- Superb!
- Superb!
Wow!
- She looks like your ex!
- Don't bring up the past!
Life's now more than the royal way
Everything's changed
Come what may
Push the edge, ignite the flame
Who will win?
Who claims the name?
Employee of the Year award goes to
Mr. D. Ragavan!
All around, the fun begins
Well done, Ragavan.
Congratulations!
Victory's close, it's coming near
Drag, drag, drag, Dragon!
Little boy but a demon within
All around, the fun begins
Marked his map, chose the route
Watch him roar, hear him shout!
SIXTIETH BIRTHDAY CEREMONY
DHANAPAL CHITHRA
Thank you for coming, sir.
That's alright, Dhanapal.
I expected your son
to be like the others,
- but he takes great care of you.
- Yes, sir.
My heart feels full.
It was all thanks
to your help, sir.
Forget all that.
You've bought a house,
so marriage is next, right?
Have you started
searching for a bride?
We're actually searching in matrimony,
but nothing's working out.
Suggest a good match
if you know any.
- There's a good prospect.
- Oh.
Let me talk to them first.
Step out, Dhanapal!
Come, ma'am!
Let's go in, shall we?
You brought us to see
a rich man's daughter?
- What if we embarrass them?
- I've got it all sorted.
Bring them along, dear boy.
Don't worry, Dad.
Let's go.
- Please come in!
- Are they here, Grandpa?
They're here, love.
- Don't be shy.
- Welcome!
- Sir, meet the groom and his parents.
- Welcome!
- Hello, uncle.
- Hello.
- Please, come. Make yourself comfortable.
- Sit.
You know? He's also from our town
near Pattukottai!
He handles more than 40 businesses
like Parasuram Steels, cements, etc.
This is his eldest, Pavithra,
and her husband.
- Hello.
- You're here to see his youngest, Pallavi.
Yeah.
Sir, I think this was a mistake.
We're a simple, humble family.
Please don't downplay yourself, sir.
You brought him up so well
that he holds a degree,
earning three lakhs a month!
So please,
give yourself some credit!
We're too shy to even speak to you.
How can we be equal?
You're worried about our status?
Status, my foot
My eldest here was married
to someone financially equal to us.
He turned out to be a nightmare
and soon, they divorced.
This chap standing here
used to work at my company.
He's such a great guy,
and now they're happily married!
These two are their children.
- Come here, darling Kaira!
- Grandpa!
All we want is for Pallavi to marry
a well-mannered guy who earns well.
Thenappan told us that you grandly
celebrated your father's 60th birthday.
That was what sealed the deal for us!
- If they agree, we can finali--
- Uncle?
Can we meet Pallavi?
Why not?
Pallavi?
Are you there, Pallavi?
Meet Pallavi, my youngest.
You look gorgeous, dear.
Thank you, auntie.
She worked for a while in my company
after finishing her MBA in the US.
- But she doesn't want to come back.
- Dad!
And wishes to settle
there after the wedding.
Oh, my! I too plan on settling there!
Oh.
How about I
leave you two alone?
No, Dad. This isn't something
to close in a day.
I need to know if he ticks certain boxes.
Why don't you take me out
on a date tonight?
Okay.
Thank you.
Let's go?
Are you checking me out?
I'd be lying if I denied it.
You genuinely look stunning
in this outfit.
Alright, where are we headed?
How about a good restaurant?
Let's go clubbing instead.
We'll drink a little
and dance the night away!
Okay.
- One tequila shot.
- Sure, madam.
- For you?
- I'll pass.
Not a drinker?
I normally drink but I need
to drive you back safely.
- Madam, your drink.
- Thank you.
Let's dance.
- Let's not?
- Oh, come on, let's dance!
Hey
Hey
Give me your heels.
Now dance freely.
Sorry, sorry.
Hey, guys, CSK beats RCB!
Thala!
Why do you seem upset?
Don't tell me you're an RCB fan.
But why?!
How can I change teams
just because they lose often?
Brother, I am coming.
Have you ever walked with a girl
in the night like this?
In college with Keerthi, of course.
Keerthi?
My ex.
- How long did you date her?
- For six years.
Oh, my, that's a long time.
How did you manage to forget her?
I didn't forget her.
She left me and I accepted it.
That's it.
Usually, men hide
their past relationships
from their to-be-wives.
How are you so open about it?
There's nothing for me to hide.
You asked me and I answered.
Easy.
Won't you ask me the same?
What's the point?
I really like you, Pallavi.
Hello, this is me, Mercy John,
and you're listening to
Radio Chennai 92.1 FM!
The weather in Chennai City
- Checking me out?
- Yeah, right, you wish.
We're talking about their favorite
honeymoon destinations.
- All the couples
- What's your dream honeymoon destination?
My dream destination
I don't have anything in mind.
Wherever we are, we'll be
in the room all day anyway.
- Naughty!
- I was kidding.
- Your turn.
- It has to be a tour around Europe.
I want to stay at least for a month
and visit every country!
And then
As the trip ends, I want to kiss you
in front of the Eiffel Tower.
I am very curious to know
about your dream destination.
So quickly call me
- Okay, bye.
- and tell me about
your favorite honeymoon destination.
Before we continue,
this beautiful song is for you.
Hey!
- Yeah?
- Tell me if you like me or not!
So I can start looking for
another girl if not.
Would I say I wanted to kiss you
in front of the Eiffel Tower if I didn't?
I looked up at the endless sky
And then you came
Like rain, so rare
You're my path, my guiding star
With you, I know
There's nothing to fear
I've found
I've found the one for me
I gave
I gave my life so free
I've seen
I've seen my destined love
I gave
I gave all dreams thereof
When I saw you standing near
My loneliness began to disappear
Wind whispered love's aching tale
But it drifted on
In a land where all hearts unite
I take you close, hand in hand
Exploring all corners
Let's wander, and seal it with a kiss
In the moment your lips touch mine
Your eyes close with love's soft thrill
I'll gather my wishes, one by one
And send them soaring to the sun
I looked up at the endless sky
And then you came
Like rain, so rare
You're my path, my guiding star
With you, I know
There's nothing to fear
In this world where colors blend
Let's explore each hidden place
My star, my heart
Forever with me, side by side
I've found,
I've found the one for me
I gave,
I gave my life so free
This moment feels like purest bliss
Will it stay forever?
I've loved you wholly
To the moon and back
Through summer heat or winter's chill
Will your love remain?
I stumble, lost
In the depth of your love
Like the waterfall's stream
Unceasing and free
Forever and always
Kiss me the same, from head to toe
My love, from a place so far
You came to me, a gift heaven-sent
The days ahead will glow so bright
With you beside me, I'll always know
D. Ragavan,
son of Mr. Dhanapal and Mrs. Chithra,
and Pallavi,
daughter of Mr. Parasuram and Mrs. Sujatha
will get married in
the midst of their loved ones
on 22nd January.
Forever with me, side by side
Please help me.
Okay, okay. You can give the rest
after tying the knot.
Listen, don't forget to come
with your family for dinner tonight.
- Do you light a cigarette at every signal?
- Yeah.
See, I don't want to control you.
- For my sake, can you stop--
- Hey, hey
I was planning to put an end too.
Now that you've asked me
Some guys will say they'll stop later.
I'm not like them, though.
I'm stopping it right here, right now,
for your sake.
- This is my last puff.
- So sweet!
- Okay?
- Love you.
Me too!
Pallavi, I'll call you later.
- My boss is on the line.
- Okay, bye!
- Hello?
- Ragavan, why aren't you at work yet?
- On my way, sir. Sorry.
- Come soon.
Sir
I want you out of here in five months.
Leave.
Sir, but What did I do?
I was performing well.
Why am I being sacked out of the blue?
Want to know why?
America is here.
I'm going to promote you to a manager
and send you there!
Sir Thank you!
- Thank you so much!
- Congratulations.
- Thanks, sir.
- You thoroughly deserve it.
- Congratulations, bro!
- Congratulations!
- Thank you so much.
- All the best, sir.
- Congratulations, sir!
- Thank you. Thanks.
- Congrats, sir.
- Thank you, Geetha.
- I'll miss you.
- Thanks.
Congrats, Dragon!
Thank you!
Who are you, sir?
Forgot me already?
I'm the principal of your college.
Oh, hey, principal sir!
What brings you here?
- Tell me, dear.
- I've sent a guy's profile I like to you.
If you refuse, dont pester me about
getting married for another two years.
By the way, the boy
is from your college.
- Run through it and let me know.
- Okay, dear.
You mor--
- Follow that car.
- We need to go left, sir.
- Do as you're told!
- Yes, sir.
CHECK AND LET ME KNOW
- Tell me, Mayilvahanan sir.
- Sir
My daughter has liked
Ragavan's matrimonial profile.
- Are you talking about Ragavan Dhanapal?
- Yes, that's the one.
You have no clue
how highly sought after he is!
He may have the build of a skeleton.
Yet, all the girls seem
to want his profile.
And that's when he hit the jackpot!
Parasuram Steels were overjoyed
to have their daughter marry him.
What?
A rich man's daughter for this fellow?
It's true.
Screw him.
I'll find your daughter a better profile.
Where do you think you're going?
To meet Ragavan.
He's on the 14th floor.
How can one become
a manager in three years?
- He's lucky, bro.
- Had you focused your energy on work
instead of impressing me,
you could have achieved what he did.
Dragon
Apologies for throwing the stub at you.
Hand it to me
and I'll throw it away.
Mistakes made unknowingly
deserve forgiveness.
Those made willfully
Meet me in the waiting room in a while.
Sir, why are you really here?
What do you want from me?
An answer.
Answer to?
To how you got a well-paying job
without a degree.
They prefer talent over education here.
That's how amazing they are.
- Oh, really?
- Yes, sir.
There are a few students
with many arrears without a job.
Can you find them work over here?
Call your VP. Let me ask him.
Sir.
Go on.
Call him!
Ragavan
Is everything okay?
Just some marriage issues, sir.
Can you give us some privacy?
- Okay.
- Thank you, sir.
Sir, forgive me!
I did fake my way through here.
The hard work and effort put in here
were all genuine, sir!
My salary in hand is three lakhs.
But almost two lakhs go
into clearing debts.
My wedding's in six months.
After that, I'll move to the US.
Finally, my life is moving forward
with happiness.
Don't spoil it by seeking revenge
for the trouble I caused you back then!
Please, sir.
- I'm ready to fall at your feet!
- Hey!
On your feet, and sit.
I could've told the VP
and your future father-in-law
that you're a fraud
if it were that easy to ruin you.
That wasn't my intention, though.
Thank you, sir.
But
you being successful without a degree,
makes those students
who slogged hard to earn good grades
look like complete idiots.
Am I right?
You're right, sir.
A college degree
is like the foundation of a building.
Only when the foundation's set,
will the building remain
and stand tall!
You know what you did?
You built your life up
without a strong foundation.
And
One wrong move
can make it all crumble!
Just like your life.
Am I right?
You're right, sir.
What you're going to do is
rework on your foundation.
- What do you mean, sir?
- You know
the degree you faked to get
you'll turn it into reality.
Which means, clearing all your 48 arrears.
Sir
You've got to be kidding me!
I don't even remember the subject names.
And it's been six years since I finished!
- I don't even know if I'm eligible to.
- Don't worry, I'll sort that out.
I'll talk to the board to get you
one last attempt at clearing them.
Forty-eight papers in one shot?
Impossible, sir!
I have a full-time job, sir.
I can't study at all!
Sir, please! Please spare me!
Office time right?
That made me remember something.
Hall ticket requires
full last-semester attendance.
Remember what you answered then?
"I don't want such a degree in that case."
You threw away
your ID card rebelliously
and walked away.
Well, that rule applies even now!
You'll come to class,
get full attendance like a good boy,
get your hall ticket, and clear them all.
Okay?
Sir
Why are you doing this to me?
- Sir, please!
- It isn't my doing, boy.
This is a second chance I'm giving you
to right your wrongs.
No, sir
- Absolutely not!
- That's your call.
See, today's Friday.
On Monday, I will meet you
at the admin block at 8:00 a.m.
Else, I'll meet your VP
at 11:00 a.m. on the dot.
Okay?
I missed you, man!
I've been promoted to manager
- and I'm flying to the US, uncle.
- Proud of you!
Before that, I must compulsorily train
- in Mumbai for three months.
- Oh.
With six months left for the wedding,
I didn't want to pass up
this massive opportunity.
So, I'm leaving for Mumbai.
As you saw, there's been
a lot of marriage issues, sir.
Plus, there's a lot of
wedding work to be done.
Can I get three months of
work from home, if you don't mind?
Okay.
Wear this. Let's study.
- Chaitanya?
- Present, sir.
- Gayathri?
- Present, sir.
- Venkat?
- Present, sir.
- Vetri?
- Absent, sir.
Why hasn't he shown up today?
He's preparing for a campus
interview at the hostel.
He's preparing with nine arrears?
Is there any logic to this?
Nonsense!
Why do I always meet
idiots like him in every batch?
- Hey, isn't that Dragon?
- Hey, dude.
- Hey, it's Dragon.
- That's Dragon.
- I'm so jealous of you.
- Why, sir?
If I get a time machine
to travel to the past
I'll go back to my college.
Those were the best days of my life.
Will it happen?
Of course, it won't.
But for you,
you've got it all
without a time machine.
Shouldn't I be jealous of you?
Hey, haven't we seen him before?
- Hey, it's Dragon, right?
- Hey, it's Dragon.
Buddy, what is he doing here?
- It looks like him.
- Dragon?!
What is he doing here?
Come on. Let's go.
Sir
Hey!
- Hey, buddy
- It's Dragon!
It is indeed Dragon.
- Go bring our boss over here.
- Okay.
Oh, my. Boss!
Boss!
Sir, how do these
students know me?
Oh, that's nothing.
Every year on Freshers' Day,
I show them a picture of you
and tell them
not to become like you.
Don't worry.
You can set things right now.
Come.
I worked for
twenty years in this college.
But today,
- is my last day.
- Sir
- No, sir.
- Please, sir.
I had to quit for health reasons.
In just a week,
a new DSP staff member
will be assigned.
- I'll miss you all.
- Sir, no, sir.
- Buddy, it's Dragon.
- Dragon.
- Sir
- What's he doing in our class?
Sit down, students.
Purushothaman, remember him?
- Dragon!
- Dragon!
How could I forget him, sir?
He's the irresponsible,
atrocious, reckless
useless boy of the 2018 batch,
with 48 arrears.
Damn it!
What is he doing here now?
Relax, Purushothaman.
Ragavan is a changed man now.
Actually, he has now realized
the value of a degree and
is back in college
to clear his 48 arrears.
Dear students.
We've three months
to close the final semester.
He's going to join you
as a classmate
and study with you.
So, let us give him
a warm welcome.
Come on, clap for him!
Oh, God, it's so embarrassing!
Take care, pal.
Get in.
- Could you scooch--
- Hey, stop.
- Why are you sitting on the first bench?
- No, sir.
Do you want to ruin
the life of a good student?
No, sir, I wanted to focus in class.
I know all about your focus.
Go, sit at the back.
Hey!
Actually, you know what?
I felt sad leaving this college
just a few minutes ago.
Thank God!
I'm leaving.
God has saved me from
seeing your idiotic face every day.
Sit down!
Okay, students.
Let us get back to Hoare's algorithm.
Hoare introduced this algorithm
for partitioning arrays using two scans.
- Yes, sir.
- Hey!
How are the marriage
arrangements going?
It's too stressful, sir.
Is that why you
didn't log in?
And left to right
- I'll do it now, sir.
- I've mailed
a module to you.
Complete it.
- Sir
- It's your US client, right?
And stop
- Finish it and continue with your work.
- Okay, sir.
Brother?
I've never sat in this class.
Who wrote my name here?
Move the laptop a bit to see.
LITTLE DRAGON
Boss!
Boss!
Boss
Boss.
Boss! Oh, my.
- Boss, open up.
- I won't.
Little Dragon?
Yes, bro.
With you as his inspiration,
he's calling himself "Little Dragon."
Boss, you'll be amazed
when you find out who's here!
I wouldn't step out even
if Mia Khalifa were here.
Boss, Dragon is here!
Algorithm can informally
be given as follows
Choose the pivotal element
from an array.
Generally, the first element
Search from left to right
for the elements.
That is greater than
the pivotal element.
Step one
- Hi, baby.
- Yes, Pallavi?
Have you reached Mumbai?
I'm already in Mumbai, Pallavi.
Why are you speaking silently?
Actually, I'm in an office meeting.
That's why I can't speak loudly.
- My dear students!
- The training here
- Wish you all a successful life
- is harder than I thought.
- and a bright future.
- I don't know what to do.
- We'll miss you, sir.
- I have a lot of work.
- I don't have time. Can we talk later?
- Alright.
Have a good day.
I miss you.
My boss. My inspiration!
My God. My guide.
- Is it really you?
- Hey, who are you?
Little Dragon!
Superstar.
Little superstar!
Boss. Small boss.
Bhagavathi. Little Bhagavathi.
TTF! Little TTF.
- You are Dragon.
- Dragon.
I am Little Dragon!
Why are you sighing, boss?
When the principal trashed
you on Freshers' Day,
you looked cool
only in my eyes.
If an entire college is
talking about just one guy,
imagine how big he must be.
I found out what all you did
during my first year.
From my second year,
I implemented all of that,
and here I am, standing in front of you
as the Little Dragon.
But you're better than me
in two things.
First, you loved one girl and were
in a relationship with only her.
But I'm not like that.
From situationships to flirtationships,
I'm in multiple ships
with different girls.
Because no girl was committed to me.
Hey, Sirisha.
What are we?
Vacationship.
We'll be in love only
when there's an industrial visit.
Second, you have 48 arrears.
But no matter what I do,
I just can't get past nine!
How did you even manage to
get 48 arrears, boss?
- You're a legend! Okay, okay.
- Stop, stop.
Don't get angry.
You must be here for a reason.
Tell me,
why are you here?
I came here to clear all my
48 arrears in the next three months.
What a joke, boss!
Boss, don't get angry.
But again, don't joke, boss.
For our stature,
we're meant to have arrears,
not clear them.
Alright, go ahead and study.
But before that, tonight-- Boss!
Boss, are you peeing or pooping?
Buddy
- Dragon
- Boss
Tell me.
Come to our room now.
I feel like having a drink with you.
- Buddy, I'm busy--
- Boss!
You prick!
Before, you wouldn't leave our room
even if we told you to.
- But now that you're rich,
- Bro, will you help me, if you're done?
- you've forgotten me!
- Boss
No, no.
In ten minutes,
you have to be here.
- If you don't,
- Dude
I'll make a call to your
rich father-in-law and,
tell him stories about all your scams!
You scumbag,
I've already been caught!
What?
You've been caught?
Oh, my God!
So, if you don't clear
all those 48 arrears,
you're done for?
Yes, buddy.
So, you're definitely done!
- Hey, don't piss me off.
- Boss.
I'm at the college just to
satisfy the principal's ego.
I can't clear those just by studying.
I don't know what to do.
Remember the guy who
helped you with the fake degree?
Ask him.
Boss!
What the hell do you want?!
Tonight, we're celebrating the union of
Dragon and Little Dragon
in a way that will shake
the entire hostel. Okay?
Alright, you jerk. Go!
Who was that fool, buddy?
Someone's here
calling himself Little Dragon.
It's like seeing myself
from six years ago.
He's torturing me!
Was I this bad back then?
You were worse than that.
Oh, my!
I have no idea how I'll survive
the next three months
with these morons, buddy.
Hey!
Dragon, my love!
Your drama's practically
begging for a song!
Shall I sing?
Caught, caught, caught
This guy's in a knot
Lord, get your cape
It's time to save your guy
Street food's a spell

Vibe check!
What's up, Ragavan?
Remember me?
I'm in big trouble, sir.
If I don't clear those 48 arrears,
my life's over, sir.
You have a connection at
the university, right?
Please help me clear
those 48 papers and
pass the exams, sir.
Alright, give me some time.
I'll see what I can do.
- Thank you.
- Wait.
Let him hang up. We won't spare him.
- You should've seen him act all hero-ish
- Hero-ish!
- Now he's deflated, not so show-ish
- Show-ish!
You flew like a dragon
- Spitting fire all around
- All around!
But gravity wins
- You're stuck to the ground!
- Ground!
Curdled dreams, beyond repair
Beyond repair!
- Look at him sporting a beard, oh, dear
- Oh, dear
All that style, yet nowhere near
Nowhere near
Look at him sunken
- Like a flower in piece
- In piece!
- Running around, looking for peace
- For peace!
One more push
- And I'll break into pieces!
- Into pieces!
I'm a broken spicy DVD now
Skips the action, don't ask me how
Don't ask me how
Warden, they're torturing me!
- I'll handle the warden. Come.
- Oh, God, what's this?
Sit.
Why are you guys torturing him?
Come to me, buttercup.
I'll deal with them.
You were at the top
Oh, what a show
Now you're the star of a tragic low!
Booze will make your body loose
Haven't you heard?
No need to preach
Just shut up, you all's well!
Caught, caught, caught
This guy's in a knot
Lord, get your cape
It's time to save your guy
Caught, caught, caught
This guy's in a knot

What is it, sister?
How's the pre-wedding
romance going?
He hasn't paid me any
attention since he went to Mumbai.
If he won't give you attention,
gather it yourself.
Pardon.
Gather the attention yourself.
Venkat
Teach me this program, please.
Fish fell right into my trap!
- What?
- You
sent a picture,
but now it's disappeared.
It's a one-time message.
So of course, it disappears.
Hey, please.
Send it again.
- I can't.
- Please, please.
Please
No means no!
- Please!
- Hey, guys, lets get going.
Aavesham is out,
and Fahadh Faasil k*lled it!
- Please, please, please!
- No.
What's up, boss?
Who are you begging? Your girl?
Oh, okay.
- Who was it?
- That was
an irritating employee.
It would be great
if you could cooperate a little
- send that picture again, won't you?
- That's not happening.
- Shilpu, you sit next to me.
- Okay.
Hey, Venkat.
Come on.
- No, man, I've got to study.
- Hey!
Didn't you get placed at
Google last semester?
- So, what's with all this?
- No, buddy
Fine, rot in your studies, jerk!
Guys, let's go.
- Guys, let's go!
- Hey, come.
Please, send it again.
Please.
Please, please.
You ignored my call last night,
but the moment I sent a hot pic,
you're calling and begging.
So, is it lust over love for you?
No, I'm full of love.
Really? Then prove
it's love over lust for you,
and I'll send the picture.
Tell me, tell me.
What should I do?
Show me how much you love me
with all your kisses.
Okay.
That's how much you love me?
Where are you going?
It's a free period,
so we're off to a movie.
Dear students.
I am Keerthi.
I am your new DSP lecturer.
Kindly go back to your seats.
Hey, go back.
Do you want to head out?
If you're the staff,
I'll happily step inside.
Not enough.
- Not. Enough!
- Ma'am?
- Inside.
- Not enough!
Oh, this isn't enough?
Let me show you my true love!
It's only now that
I feel a love stronger
than your lust.
Alright, I'll send the picture.
Caught, caught, caught
This guy's in a knot
Madam, he's Dragon.
From the 2018 batch.
He's back in college
to clear his 48 arrears.
He's sincere but sometimes
he pulls stunts like this.
I'll handle him, madam.
- Idiot!
- No phones in the classroom.
Sit.
When STR said in VTV, "Love isn't
something to search for, it finds you and
takes you to the moon and back,"
I only understand it now.
That noodle-haired beauty is
taking me to the moon and back, boss.
I'm telling you
if I don't date that beauty
before the final semester ends,
I'm not the Little Dragon anymore.
Boss, stop looking
at her like that!
You've got a girlfriend,
and she's mine.
Madam?
He's not allowing me to study.
Can I come
and sit on the first bench?
Thank you, Madam.
How is it?
In the charm of this beautiful chick
Hey, go away.
You're always here
asking doubts.
Looks like she
dozes off in class.
Hey, scoot.
I'm not you to sit at home
for two years, unemployed!
You're the disgrace!
You're a failure, Ragavan!
I'm afraid I'll become like you
in the future.
So, Hoare conceptualized
So, students,
we'll continue tomorrow. Bye.
Ragavan?
Hey, stop.
- Where are you going?
- I want to meet the principal.
You aren't a governor
to waltz in as you please.
Wait for ten minutes.
He's in a meeting.
- Hello, sir.
- I spoke to my guy from the university.
Superb, sir. Tell me!
How much should I pay?
Don't you start!
He's willing to help if it's a few papers.
But for 48, he's saying no,
no matter how much you pay.
Please, sir,
I'm counting on you for help.
Sir, please figure something out.
There is a way.
- What is it, sir?
- Study.
Study hard and pass the exams.
Hey?
You're free to go in.
Come on in, I heard
you've got perfect attendance.
- Good.
- Sir!
Why did you hire her?
- Who?
- My ex, Keerthi!
Keerthi Deepak.
DSP Lecturer.
Is she from your batch?
She's a good kid.
What made her fall for you?
I think she's married
to a good guy now. Right?
Did you appoint her
just to get back at me?
Stop.
Do you think my
job is hiring your exes?
So you know now, right?
Fire her right away, sir.
Hey, she finished her M.E.,
aced her interview,
and got hired here.
How can I fire her?
What rights do I have?
Oh.
So, you won't?
Fine, then, I'll leave.
That's your choice, man.
- You know what the consequences will be.
- Oh, sir, enough!
Stop blackmailing me, sir.
Why would you rat me out?
I'll tell my uncle and my manager myself.
They will understand.
I can't bear your
t*rture anymore, sir.
- Good bye!
- Do tell me how it goes.
I'll cross-check it.
Boss, let's go play cricket.
Why are you packing?
Are you leaving the college?
Come on, boss!
Only now the true dragon
is coming out.
I was afraid you'd step in
and make Keerthi fall for you.
- Thank God.
- Hey, I'm already pissed!
- Get out of my sight.
- Oh!
Dragon is spitting fire.
Let's go. Let's go!
ANBU DARLING
- Hey, Dragon.
- Buddy, I just can't.
- I'm coming back to Chennai.
- Hey!
Don't even think
about coming back.
- I called to tell you something.
- What?
Check out the news link
posted in our cricket group.
Two employees at
the private IT firm YCL were
arrested for producing
forged certificates.
- They were fired by the company and
- I said, move!
- then taken into police custody.
- Move!
To prevent such practices,
companies are now
making background checks mandatory.
Hey, did you see?
Bro, if you get caught,
it's the end for you.
Just study and clear
all those 48 arrears.
- Sir?
- Ragavan.
Did you see the news?
I think it's quite likely that our
company could face similar frauds.
Let's do a background check.
Again.
What say?
I'll start the process right away.
Okay, sir.
Oh, no!
Hey, baby.
Hope your day was great.
Yeah, Pallavi.
Is it Ragavan?
- Yes.
- Hand over the phone to me.
Yes, Ragavan.
Sorry for the disturbance.
Did you see the news?
When people like us
work hard for a degree,
these morons commit forgery
and end up getting arrested.
I've instructed my companies
to run background checks.
If any of those jerks get caught,
I won't involve the police.
I'll behead them myself.
I just wanted to inform you.
- How can some men do this, baby?
- Pallavi.
- Men who do this deserve to be shot.
- After a while, I'll
- Pallavi, I'll call you back.
- Okay, baby.
Hey!
What is it?
Where are you going?
I want to meet the principal.
He just went out
to the staff quarters.
Oh, God!
Boss, why wear that? Take it off too.
Hey!
What is it?
Weren't you planning
to tell the truth?
Now you're here half-dressed?
- What happened?
- Sir
I'll stay here and study.
Are my tortures pushing you to
swear at me?
Be honest.
It's an open challenge.
Clear all the 48 arrears,
come back,
and then curse me all you like.
I'll bear it all.
Now, go study.
Driver, start the car.
Ragavan?
- I want to talk to you.
- Move.
I really need to, please.
Let go of my hand!
I said I need to talk to you.
Hey!
Hit me
all you want.
But talk to me
please!
What do you want to say to me?
Sorry.
Sorry?
You left me to marry another guy
and now you're sorry?!
Has it become easy for you to say?
You're right.
I assumed
I'd easily forget about you
after the wedding.
I couldn't.
I also couldn't
shake off the guilt I felt
for hurting you.
Now that I married a wonderful person,
I try not to hurt his feelings,
pretending to be happy.
That's it.
We think we can
get away with ease
after making a mistake.
It will haunt us forever,
eating away our peace.
I spoke to Anbu
and he told me everything.
Lucky are those who get
a second chance, Ragavan.
And you're one of them.
Please clear them all somehow.
I don't have a choice either way.
Thinking of all the papers I have to clear
is making me lose it!
You have 35 theory papers
and 13 practicals.
You only have to pass them,
not ace them with flying colors!
As long you're present
for practicals, you'll be good.
And studying the last ten years
question papers will help you.
I'll give you the important questions
with answers.
It will boost your chances of passing.
Why are you helping me out?
What if you pass your exams
and you marry the girl you like
and settle down with her
then maybe
even I won't feel guilty anymore.
Remember how you boasted
about your 12th marks?
Put in that same effort
in the next two months.
Oh, heart, my dearest heart
How I cherish you!
Through every moment
You walked beside me
Oh, heart, my dearest heart
How I cherish you!
For me, all for me
In every tear, you bore the pain
While the rains fall
A fiery storm and winds howl through
As it touches my soul
It longs for a change to unfold
The gentle breeze seeks the shore
Caressing the waves with tender touch
It crawls, inch by inch
Until it is cradled in mother's embrace
Oh, heart, my dearest heart
How I cherish you!
Through every moment
Hello?
- Why didn't you--
- I'm at work. I'll call you later.
How I cherish you!
For me, all for me
In every tear, you bore the pain
Ma'am?
- Your kolam's amazing!
- Sweet.
Look at how she smiles!
Why don't you propose
and get rejected?
You dumb duck!
Shut up and continue carrying!
Hey
- Now's your chance to propose to her.
- I'm freaking out!
- The least she'll do is yell at you.
- Go.
Might as well make use of
the loud noise and do it!
- Ma'am
- Louder, boss!
Ma'am!

We're being beaten up by
other college students.
Please come help us!
Go away.
I have to study that 16-mark algorithm
in the next 15 minutes.
You're studying even when--
I want to curse him, but I can't!
They taunted Keerthi with paper rockets
so I slapped them in anger!
Now they're hitting us, Boss. Come--
- Look, boys!
- Boss, they are here.
They must shudder at
the sound of our college's name!
You're only here to have fun
at the culturals and leave.
That doesn't mean you can cause
a row with girls.
How dare he hit us
when it was playful teasing?
- I dare you to beat us now!
- Slow down.
I could ask him
to apologize for starting it.
Apologize to him.
Take this!
- That hit is making my ears ring, dude!
- Oh, God!
Think you're a peacemaker

- Run away like a boy that you are.

That's it.
That's the algorithm.

- Let me know if I got it right.

- Mess with Dragon, this'll be your fate!
You knocked them out of the park!
- Your swag hasn't changed--
- You!
Swag, my foot.
Drop the swag, hit the books,
and walk out with a degree!
Even the dogs won't respect you
if you don't.
Boomer alert!
Of course, I'm one
when I tell you out of experience.
You know the teacher
you're trying to woo?
She's my ex-girlfriend.
I now realize why she left me
after looking at you.
Listen to me.
I agree, girls do fall for our swag.
It's only when we have stability
that they want to be with us.
I swear.
So, this whole act was for her
and not for me, right?
Fine, I was trying to
follow in your footsteps.
Now that you're begging me to study,
how can I not pay heed?
All my cherished days
Lost in the rain
The tender raindrops froze
Still and silent
Yet, my sky beams with
The colors of a rainbow
- Yet, my heart yearns
- Your hall ticket.
- Do well.
- Thank you, sir.
Where the story began
My heart's journey finds its close
I turn into a boat
Tossed by the storm's raging winds
A glimpse of the lighthouse
I'll reach the shore
where my heart rests!
It's your first arrears exam.
You studied well, right?
- Yeah.
- All the best.
Thanks.
Oh, heart, my dearest heart
How I cherish you!
Through every moment
You walked beside me
Oh, heart, my dearest heart
How I cherish you!
For me, all for me
In every tear, you bore the pain

- Finished studying the last unit?
- I'll deal with it in the morning.
- Shut up and do it now.
- My eyes are closing!
- Dude.
I haven't slept in two months.
Sleep all you want after the last exam.
Now finish it!
Looks like you'll really
make me get my degree!
Damn it!
"The frequency of signal processing"
Why's your ex here at this hour?
It's your birthday?
Why didn't you tell me?
Whose ex but yours
will put in so much effort?
You're a real one, man!
Trying to woo her again, I see.
Happy birthday!
Why the efforts?
I wasn't sure when I'll see you next.
So, I wanted to end this
on a good note.
I was planning to invite you
to my wedding.
We'll meet then.
Go on, blow them out.
Happy birthday, Dragon!
Happy birthd
Your girl's on the line for you.
Put her on speaker, please.
Hello?
- Hey, baby!
- Hi!
You called on time to wish me?
So sweet!
Whose birthday?
- Drop the act, love.
- Caught red-handed!
I know you can't lie,
so wish me instead.
No, I'm going to wish you in person.
I wish the same as well.
What to do?
I'm stuck in Mumbai, though.
I'm at Mumbai Airport, though.
Come, pick me up!
Hello?
Shocked?
Stop fooling around, Pallavi.
I'm not, love.
I missed you so much!
So, I thought
I'd surprise you in person.
Alright, come soon.
I I'm busy.
Send me your location
and I'll come to you.
Sent it?
I've got work, Pallavi.
I can't come.
You're working?
Are you serious?
I am.
I'm here for your sake in an unknown city
in the middle of the night,
and you're choosing work?
How's this fair?
Pallavi, Pallavi
I really am swamped.
You haven't been the same since you left.
For the past three months,
whenever I bring up our wedding
you've never shown interest.
Something's wrong!
- Nothing like that, dear.
- Nothing, right?
Then, come meet me
for five minutes and leave.
Come.
Come!
Pall
If you don't, I'm calling off the wedding.
I'm asking you one last time.
Are you coming or not?
- I can't, Pallavi
- Let's break up, then!
because I'm in Chennai!
As soon as I finished training,
I landed here to surprise you with a gift!
- What?
- I'm serious!
I wanted to keep up the suspense
but you want to call off the wedding!
And so, I broke the suspense.
- Are you for real?
- Yes, love.
I need a ticket to Chennai.
Please, it's urgent.
- No
- Sure, let me check.
Yes, please.
- There's a ticket, ma'am.
- No!
Thank God! Yes, please.
- Can I have your Aadhar card?
- Yeah.
Thank you so much!
Ma'am, boarding has already begun.
You'll need to rush
before the gate closes.
Thank you.
Hey, catching a flight back in an hour.
Come pick me up at the airport, okay?
Meet you in three hours.
See you, bye!
You're royally screwed, boy.
- Where did he go?
- Never have I ever seen a liar like you.
You lie like your pants are on fire!
You truly live up to your name.
- I'm nothing when compared--
- Oh, zip it and get up!
Must reach Chennai in three hours.
What do I do? What do I do?
What do I do?
Give me your car keys.
Your exam's at 9:00 a.m.!
The round trip takes a total of six hours.
Talking to her takes one hour
I'll be back by then. Give them.
It's not worth the risk.
If I don't, I'll lose everything!
Come along, man?
- Why me?
- We still have one unit to go.
Damn, you can drift!
Can I play "Arjunar Villu" from Ghilli
now that you're all fired up?
- Can I? Can I?
- Shut up and study!
"The Laplace transforms are"
Didn't you tell her you got her a gift?
Don't tell me you're going empty-handed!
Oh, it's him!
Anbu, can you buy Pallavi a gift
and come to the airport?
Who the heck is Pallavi?
I have no time to entertain you.
It's a life-or-death situation!
Please, I beg of you!
- Hey.
- Baby.
Give me five kisses.
- Every kiss of yours is etched
- Hey, playboy!
Enough of etching each other
and sleep already!
- Yeah?
- Dude, know any gift shops open now?
"Obtained by taking in the"
Lorry ahead, man!
Careful.
Run, bro, run!
What is this gift?
Be grateful that we got you one
at this hour.
The balloons?
Bro?
- Are you Anbu?
- That's me.
- Who are you?
- I'm
Little Dragon.
- You're that moron!
- That's me.
I'm planning to job hunt
in Chennai after I graduate.
If you don't mind, can I crash
for a few days with you?
- At our motel? Be my guest.
- Thank you, thanks a ton!
I tend to bring girls to the room, though.
Would that be chill with you all?
Hold this for me, will you?
There's already someone
using it as a hookup spot
- and you want to do the same?
- Bro, stop! Don't!
I was in a relationship
when I was in the US.
He used to lie to me
and deceive me
which led to me calling it off.
When I first met you,
you were truthful.
Which is why I agreed to marry you.
But now
it feels wrong.
No, no, it's nothing, Pallavi.
Promise me
that you aren't hiding
anything from me.
I promise
I promise I am not, dear.
Happy birthday!
"Processing plays a key role in generation
and detection of DTMF signals."
We've covered everything in this, bro!
Boss!
Sleepy?
- Shall we stop somewhere for tea?
- No, no.
- We'll be late for the exam.
- Right.
- Alright, you drive in your sleep.
- Okay.
Oh, my!
Why's my stomach churning?
Is she your ex or your current girl?
How's she everywhere?
Good morning, ma'am!
Boss, my stomach's churning.
You head to the exam hall.
I'll run to the bathroom.
- All the best! Bye!
- Okay.
- We're ready, though.
- How I missed you all! Love you, boys!
- Thanks, Keerthi.
- You're right on time!
Here's your hall ticket,
ID card, and your pens.
I brought you a shirt.
Change your clothes in the bathroom.
- It's your last exam, do well. Okay?
- Okay.
All the best!
What now?
It's
Youve always been there for me,
from the time we dated till now.
For you, I've never
I now realize
when you broke up with me
if I hadn't gotten angry
and promised to clear my arrears,
we wouldn't be
in this situation right now.
I'm sorry, Keerthi.
I didn't deserve you.
The exam is going to start.
Write your name and
registration number.
Fill it fast.
Boss
Is the question paper okay?
Great!
Lack of sleep will
definitely make you dizzy.
Next time something like this happens,
stop what you're doing
and give your eyes ten minutes of rest.
Last one hour!
Ten minutes more.
Hurry up!
Oh, my!
- Time up.
- Sir
My dear students,
we study, work hard, get a degree
and become big in life.
But, he
took shortcuts and succeeded in life
without studying.
Every shortcut will eventually
come to a dead end, won't it?
He also found himself
at a similar dead end.
So, he returned to college with the
aim to make up for his mistakes.
Excuse me, sir?
Did he clear all his
48 arrears in a single attempt?
Ragavan, the VP wants to see you.
Sir, anything urgent?
Everyone at the office has
had their background checked.
It's all okay.
Except for you.
I thought I'd do it with you.
Which college are you from?
Is it AGS?
Which batch?
Batch?
It's 2018, sir.
Okay.
I'll just call them.
- Hello.
- Hello
This is a background verification
call from Lateral View.
The student's name is D. Ragavan.
From the 2018 batch.
He graduated from
your college, right?
- Sir, wait a minute.
- Yeah!
They've called for a background
check from Ragavan's office, sir.
- Ragavan
- Sir!
- What?
- Sir, he cleared.
Yes.
Ragavan has obtained
a degree from our college.
Oh, is it? Okay.
Okay, thank you.
- Why are they denying it?
- Sir
I'm just joking.
It's all good.
Verification is done.
Hey!
What happened?
What happened?
Sir, you wouldn't get it
even if I explained!
What?
I was in shock.
You know what that rascal did?
The day after he received his degree,
he came to see me.
Clear all the 48 arrears,
come back,
and then curse me all you like.
I'll bear it all.
What is it?
- Did he bring you along to curse me?
- Yes, sir--
Come to my wedding,
and bless me, sir.
- What?
- You are
all alone in this room.
So, I thought I'd
give you company.
After marriage,
you can keep me company.
- Go to bed now.
- Hey, hey!
Despite studying in America,
you're being very regressive.
Ragavan?
- Haven't slept yet?
- I'm going, Uncle.
- Go sleep. The wedding's in the morning.
- Go!
You!
Pambu, let's put all of our dances
from today as reels!
- Welcome, buddy.
- Hey, buddy
- Come, let's all drink!
- Not a chance.
Don't get wasted and
miss tomorrow's wedding.
Buddy, that Little Dragon took his
phone and went elsewhere.
Get him to return.
I want to roast him.
I want to roast that prick.
I want to!
Hey.
Where are you heading?
The boys are looking for you.
What happened?
Boss, remember Venkat
from our class?
- That nerd from the first bench.
- Yes.
He attempted suicide,
by slitting his wrist.
Oh, God!
Nothing happened.
After realizing his error,
he went to the hospital
for treatment before calling me.
Why did he take such a drastic step?
He failed in a subject, boss.
He wasn't able to clear it
even after re-evaluation.
That's why he did
what he did.
All this for just one subject?
Yes, boss.
He's an idiot.
Okay, leave it.
He lives in Pattinapakkam.
- I'll go see him and return by morning.
- Hey!
Aren't you drunk?
Yes, boss.
- I'll come too.
- Boss
You're getting married
in the morning.
- I'll go check on him--
- Hey!
I'm coming.
Go straight.
Pull over.
Right here.
We have to start
walking from here.
Come on.
Careful, boss.
This is the place.
Hey, do you have any sense?
What if something had happened?
Did you think of your mom?
Where is she?
She's gone to Tiruchendur temple
to pray for my results.
Is an arrear even a big deal?
If you think this is worth dying for,
he should've died 48 times by now.
I lost my job at Google.
Why? Can't you join next
semester after clearing it?
You can't join there
with a history of arrears.
Alright, drop it.
With your talent,
you'll land a better job.
It was my dream
to join this company.
Just like him,
I also want to be happy in college,
skip classes,
and
fall in love!
Remember Gayathri from our class?
- I really like her.
- You sly fox!
I had a hunch when she kept
asking you doubts.
I've wanted to confess
my love to her,
but every time I try,
I think of this house and
my mother selling fish at the beach.
Then, all my desires fade,
leaving only one thought
in my mind.
If I work hard for
these four years and
get a good job,
won't my life improve?
Seeing the job
I fought so hard for
slip away
because of
someone else's mistake
breaks my heart.
I don't get what you're saying.
This is a copy of
my DSP re-evaluation papers.
Only the first page of this
belongs to me.
The rest aren't mine.
- What is it?
- Sir
Can you help me
chase just one paper, sir?
Please, sir.
Please.
Please, sir.
Boss, hand it over.
Yes, this doesn't look like
your handwriting at all.
Did you let the HOD know?
He told me to complain at the exam center.
Did you?
How can the papers
get swapped?
Do you have any proof that
this paper isn't yours?
- Sir
- Alright, let's say I believe you.
Even if I start investigating now,
it'll take at least a year
to finish the process.
But, the semester is just
four months away.
So focus on clearing it then.
You're a bright student, aren't you?
What have I done other than study?
Even if I give it my all,
my life still won't change, will it?
Okay, brother.
I I'll get going.
Right, boss.
Demons don't descend from above
They rise from
The darkness of human actions
Inside the heart
The flame of fairness burns
Realizing it the spirit blooms
Into its true human form
What are we searching for
In this endless quest?
What have we become
In the search for truth?
The one who doesn't find it
Becomes a demon in disguise
Who am I, dear God!
Answer my cries, my savior!
Who am I, dear Lord!
To soothe my heart
Will you come here to me?
Who am I, dear God!
Answer my cries, my savior!
Who am I, dear Lord!
From the silence of my heart
Will you rise as the truth I need?
From the tears of the suffering
Those find joy and solace
Grow into demons in the shadows!
Is it right to crush a dream
To make mine real?
Tell me, heart!
Where does justice lie?
Promise me that you aren't
hiding anything from me?
I promise I am not, dear.
Oh, my God!
Who am I, dear God!
To soothe my heart
Will you come here to me?
We think we can get away
easily after making a mistake.
But, it will haunt us forever,
eating away our peace.
Answer my cries, my savior!
You being successful
without a degree,
makes those students who
slogged hard to earn good grades,
look like complete idiots.
Priest, hand him the nuptial thread.
Get the wedding beats going.
So, no matter how hard I work,
my life won't change, right?
- Do it!
- Tie the knot before it's late.
Ragavan?
Dude
Hey!
Ragavan
- What is it, son?
- Sir
I didn't clear the DSP paper by studying.
I cleared it by chasing the answer paper.
Sir, my mistake caused
a bright student to fail the exam.
After losing the job
he worked so hard for,
he even tried to take his own life.
Sir, do whatever you want with me,
but please help him get his job back.
Please, sir. Please!
Hey, Ragavan!
What's wrong with you?
Everyone's waiting.
What are you up to?
Why are you rambling like this?
Come on, Ragavan. Go.
I'm not rambling, sir.
For the first time in my life,
I'm speaking the truth.
Buddy, don't get into this now.
Sir, I didn't join your company
using my original certificates.
- I produced fake certificates.
- What?!
I lied to get in.
Uncle
You wanted someone
as hardworking as you
to marry your daughter, right?
I didn't succeed through hard work, uncle.
I pulled it off through fraud.
Pallavi, I gave you my word at the airport
that I wasn't lying, right?
I lied to you, Pallavi.
I never went to Mumbai for training.
I was at my college in Vellore,
clearing my arrears.
- You!
- Calm down, will you?
Dad
The certificate
you eagerly framed at home
is a fake one.
- Why did you do this?
- Aunt, don't hit him.
Why did you lie to all of us?
How could you think of doing
something like that?
How could you?!
Go on, speak up!
Why the hell did you do it?
Did I bring you into this world
to be humiliated this way?
Speak up, Ragavan!
How did you turn out to be a lowlife?
I am a lowlife, Mom.
A lowlife who thought he could do
whatever it takes to succeed.
Not at the cost of
ruining another person, though.
He turned himself in that day
CHENNAI TRIPLICANE POLICE
CLERK
and received a six-month sentence.
By acknowledging his mistake,
that poor topper was able to reclaim
the job offer he rightfully earned.
The girl he wanted to marry,
his job, his house, and his car,
slowly went away from him.
His future was completely wrecked.
No one knew where he was
or what he was up to after that.
Then two days ago,
out of nowhere, I saw him.
- Your order, Harini.
- Yes?
Harini?
My daughter. She's upstairs.
How are you doing?
I would've done great
if I hadn't come clean.
But the guilt of ruining someone
would have cost me my peace.
Now I'm happy, sir.
I thought it was game over
after you went to prison.
I thought the same.
Son!
The bank took our house away
because we couldn't afford the EMIs.
When we had given up all hope,
it was bhai who let us stay
in our old house.
Come.
Come in, dear boy.
Chithra! Chithra!
Look, our son's here!
Hurry, get the food ready for him!
Why dont you freshen up?
I'll buy banana leaves to eat in.
Dad?
Yes, my boy?
Honestly, I hurt you the most.
If anyone
should be mad at me, its you.
You can slap me and whack me
all you want, Dad.
But please don't suppress
your emotions and suffer in silence!
When I was at the starting line
of a race as a child,
another child pushed me down
just to win.
I still walk with a limp from that injury.
When I knew that my son didn't do
the same mistake as that guy,
my heart beamed with pride!
The day you put someone elses life
above your own
and accepted your mistake
in front of everyone,
you proved that you're my son!
Don't worry that you lost.
Run the race again.
I've got your back.
We'll face it together this time!
Dad
What
That was when I turned a new leaf
and realized any job is respectable
as long as we do it honestly.
I started out with 8,000 in hand.
And now I get 25,000.
You know, I started studying
I scored 90 percent in the first semester!
I'll get going now, sir.
I am getting late for my next delivery.
Do rate me well on the app, sir!
I hope you've forgiven me.
I make an example of this fellow
as a failure to all every year.
He may work a menial job,
but he restored my faith in him
being successful.
My dear students,
all of us run the race
towards success.
Sometimes we lose midway.
Instead of beating yourself up for it,
run the race again.
Success awaits you in the end!
In that case, D. Ragavan
No.
Dragon is one of the most
successful students
who passed out of this college.
Dad, some jerk parked their car
by our
I'm that jerk, dear boy.
Sir, what are you doing here?
Sir couldn't find a good match
for his daughter, it seems.
Too many fraudsters out there, you know?
- So?
- So
he's here to ask
for your hand in marriage for her.
My daughter had already liked your profile
on the matrimonial website.
That's when I caught you red-handed.
The other night when you came home
to deliver food, I told her,
"Someone who learns from their mistakes
and lives truthfully will never fail you."
I told her you're the one for her.
And she agreed!
- Leave, sir.
- Hey
- Hey!
- He's come all the--
Zip it, Dad.
You've already screwed me over.
- Hey.
- You want to screw me all my life?
What did I do to you?
No. Leave right away!
Hey. Why don't you meet her?
She's an angel!
I don't want your angel or her--
- Whatever, I want you out!
- Ragava, don't--
- Son
- Hang on. I'll leave once she comes in.
Dear, he--
