Give me the lantern, brother-in-law,
Instead of killing him at a huge place like Vijayawada,
why would he be brought here and killed?
Is it possible to kill someone at a place such as Vijayawada, by burying them up to their neck in the mud,
pouring jaggery on their face, and torture him by
letting the ants crawl on him and eat him alive for three days?
Is it possible that commit this cruel murder at busy area like Benz circle,
It’s difficult, sir,
Body?
No identification, sir,
As soon as you get the results, send them to me,
Okay sir,
Just like Krishnamma, I don’t know when I was born or to whom,
But I am sure that people living in this village, that lies beside the Krishnamma River,
and even the village itself have their own stories to tell,
But I don’t have any particularly unique story about myself,
My story is the same as Shiva and Koti,
Idiot, let’s go, Move
Look at him there! He’s lounging around like Lord Vishnu,
Bhadra, get up,
Wake up, man! Get up!
Pass me a cigarette, buddy,
I don’t know where it is, Look into that hole there,
What? In a hole?
Don’t you have a home or a family?
As if this is a place! Fool!
you made so many holes,, You should have been born abroad, not in India
Why are you hollering so early in the morning?
What do you mean we are hollering? Tomorrow is Dussehra,
So?
What do you mean ‘so’? Tomorrow is your birthday!
Happy birthday,
Thank you,
Happy birthday, Bhadra, Thanks…Thanks
Did you get me a cake?
Buddy, first let’s shower and then head to the temple,
In this cold?
What is this nonsense every year?
Would anyone celebrate their birthdays when it’s cold and in winter?
Listen, change my birthday to summer months,
Change it to the time when it’s Ugadi,
What did you say? Move it to the new year,
You have a problem with the cold,
Let’s do this,
Last year, during the temple celebrations, the goddess’ necklace fell down, right?
Why don’t we search for it for fun?
Then, you wouldn’t mind the cold so much,
Have you gone mad?
What? You mean to say you want to search for a tiny necklace in such a big river?
Do you really think the necklace can be found?
Listen, we will discuss this after you convince him first,
Whether it’s you or them, it’s all the same,
I don’t know if we would be able to find such a small necklace in such a big river,
But to jump into that river in such cold weather, you need to desire it enough to try,
We don’t desire it that much, You go ahead and search for it,
Go,
Alright, fine,
Go,
Why did he give up on us so easily? That is what I don’t understand,
Buddy, you said that I wouldn’t find it,
Come…come…come… Jump,,, jump
Is this really the goddess’s necklace? Bhadra, this is fake,
Now we are no longer cold,
Bhadra, we’ve been cheated, Dunk that jerk!
Next year, by the time of this festival comes around, we should have families of our own,
Let’s go,
Just because they have a family, they think they can flaunt?!
One,,two,,three… Four…five…six…Eight…nine…ten…
Brother Bhadra, Namaste,
Don’t you understand Telugu songs?
Play some Telugu songs,
Nice songs
Brother, you’re here?
Dasanna has been searching for you all morning,
Apparently, the goods have arrived in the market,
Do you have any brains?! You idiot!
He saw us, He saw us?
That’s Dasanna calling,
Dasanna, yes,
Dasanna!
Why are you anxious today when the festival is tomorrow?
Don’t fret,
By tomorrow morning, there’s going to be flowers decorated onto the pandal,
You cut the call, Cut the call,
It’s Dasanna,
He is worried that the Pandal isn’t decorated with flowers yet,
And this one here worries over nothing,
Start the vehicle, I am starting it…hold on
This one here is Dasanna,
The Godfather of our Vinchipeta,
What is this?
Just look at it after it’s wiped clean,
You will shine,
You think so?
Sir, you are getting late,
Do you think I should get it done to my moustache?
If there is some place left, get that done as well,
It’s been an hour since I came,
Looks like this old fellow’s blood pressure increased,
Hey, put the paper,,
Why would you talk like that in front of the kids this early in the morning?
What’s the matter?
Nothing at all, I need your help
Two cases are pending, And both these cases are going to be checked soon,
I need two people urgently,
Jerk! Why would you bathe on the roads?!
How much farther is it?
You didn't come for me,,, you came for your work? Please come,
I got the joker,
Even Dasanna is here,
What’s going on with you so early in the morning, brother?
You brought the constable with you,
There’s a small petty case…, possibly two months in jail,
What’s the case, sir?
It’s house-breaking,
Isn’t the punishment for house-breaking four months in jail?
Listen, don’t talk if you don’t know the details,
Who do you think you are fooling, sir?
It’s four months in prison for house-breaking,
It’s two months of jailtime for chain-snatching,
It’s one month of jailtime for pick-pocketing,
Do you think we don’t know about the law and the police?
You say it’s just a month but end up with a jailtime of four months,
And when we demand answers, you don’t even give a response,
Stop it,
Brother, I am 3 months pregnant, If you send both of my husbands in jail,
should I go and search for a third husband during my delivery?
Woman, stop it!
When I say it’s two months of jailtime, I mean two months,
Only two months,
Listen, they are going to pay 5,000/- per person,
Go and hand yourselves over to the police in the evening, -Alright,
Listen, brother, You hold on,
Why won’t he listen?
Dasu, thank you,
I shall take my leave,
Namaste,
What brings you by? I had a bit of work and that’s why I came by,
What’s going on with you guys? You are all ready and seem to be headed somewhere,
Nothing much, sir, Since it’s the festival…,
we were dealing with the pandal, decorations and flowers
If you go to the market searching for some stuff towards that flower market
If you catch the attention of the newly appointed ACP,
you will not be able to get out of jail for a minimum of two to three years,
Of course, not…nothing like that
Michael kept the flowers at his home for over a week
and spend time smelling them instead of getting them here,
You guys keep a watch out,
Sir, please come to the festival celebrations, Sure, sure,
Idiot! He doesn’t have a brain,
How many times did I tell him not to go by Shiva’s shop?
Forget about him,
The stock was delivered at Kotaiah’s shop,
Is that Raja Hamsa or Seelavati?
It’s been a long time since Raja Hamsa was sighted,
It’s Seelavati,
How much? 3 Kgs,
3 Kgs? Looks like you are desperate to send us to prison,
Bhadra…Bhadra…, Please do something and manage this,
The merchandise would get all old and infested with cobwebs,
Bhadra!
These days that Michael has been seen moving around with guys from the task force,
Be careful,
He is inconsequential, Why should we be scared of him? Get on,
Listen, if there’s someone in the front, say it, Yes, 100%,
Michael, those guys just entered the market,
Bhadra came to the market, You mustn’t miss him!
Go and get him! Alright, brother,
Those little lanes beside the Shiva’s temple are something that the task force doesn’t know,
You guys check those as well, Yes, brother,
Go! Come on, guys
Kotaiah, What's up?
You got stuff?
Yes, the stock arrived 2 days ago
Here,
Excise officials are in the market,,,beware,
Koti, don’t show them your face,
I heard you missed those guys at the market,
Go to the Babaji Mattum,
Catching them there is a piece of cake,
Run,,, run,,,
Ramesh don't leave them Catch them
Okay sir,
Stop!
Come!
Sir, I got him,
He is one of Michael’s men, isn’t he? Yes, he is,
Venkatesh? Stop there, Venkatesh!
Oh, my goodness! Koti, this is Micheal’s
Brother? Hello, task force,,
There…, there they are… Go that side,
This side…this side… Those guys are coming here?
They are here, There are here, Cut the call,
Hey Bhadra, haven’t I don’t a good job as the lookout?
Terrific,
I only heard of New ACP, Did you ever see him?
Why would I need to do that? From now on, that’s going to be your job,
How is it?
Cheers!
Oh! Idiots!
Come on, take them,
Sir, I don’t know anything,
What a fine job you’ve done of making them the scapegoats,
How dare he mess with Koti and Bhadra?
They are going to spend a minimum of 6 months in prison,
Bhadra…Bhadra…, this is the correct time,
Forget about these cheap one or two kilos trade,
Why don’t you get a quintal… a quintal of the stuff from Paderu
Forget about quintal, How about a ton?
Hey, you guys heard him, isn’t it? You guys are the witness,
Please don’t forget,
Prabhudas & Co, Cannabis business
Wholesale and retail, There! That’s it!
That’s how a man proclaims!
You are a tiger! A tiger, I tell you!
Why did he come back so soon?
Have you started again?
Bye,
Dasanna!
Wait, I'll come with you,
Hey, you come and sit here,
How long is this going to go on?
We wanted to quit but Dasu told us that this would be the last time,
That’s all, Every time is the last time with you guys,
Shiva, from today onwards, we are going to stop everything,
Yes,
Swearing on the goddess
Meeting with Dasu and consuming alcohol, and Shiva scolding us for it, has become our daily routine,
Call everyone, Let’s start the auction,
Sister, the auction is about to start, Come on, hurry,
On behalf of the God, it’s 1500,
Sister, I’m bidding for 1600,
Chandrakala is bidding at 1600,
Sister, I am at 1700,
Meena is bidding for 1700,
1800,
Sai calls for 1800,
1900
2000!
Who bid for 2000?
Who was that?
Sai? Didn’t I already tell you before?
I told you that my mother needs the money and asked you not to bid higher than me,
You said yes then, Why are you doing this now?
Sister, if she wants to bid higher, please ask her to,
But why would she keep threatening me?
You are running your mouth without consequences,
I am not the only one in need here,
You would have to face situations like this in the future as well,
Remember that before you speak,
2100, sister!
Finalize it,
Let's see who can stop me
2100 going once,
Each of you will have to pay 790 bucks,
You must pay it off in three days’ time,
Alright?
Meena, what’s going on here?
Aunty, well…
How many times do I have to tell you not to do this here?
Everything seems hunky-dory now, But at the end, you would fight
amongst yourself for failing to pay the entire amount,
We could do this outside, aunty,
But they want us to get you to sign a surety for this
How will I sign just like that?
That is why we … Aunty…aunty…
uncle just came, He is waiting for you,
What are you doing here?
I already told you at home, didn’t I?
What is this then?
Well… Just this once,
Forget about once or twice, I’ve been seeing this for the past 20 years,
You were obsessed with the party and drained our entire wealth
What’s left?
Enough with your political indulgence, Stop it,
No, Subba Rao said that he would withdraw from the contest,
Even the MLA said that he would give me the corporator seat,
Subba Rao wouldn’t withdraw and neither would you get that position,
I’ll just feed you, So, stay at home without fussing,
Set some money aside, The party workers and other people would come,
We need a little shop to put the flags in,
Who is going to pay for the little shop?
Is your grandfather going to pay? Well…
The room upstairs…
Do you have any sense? It’s a hostel that girls live in,
If people keep visiting the place, what is the impression that’s going to create?
They will use the stairs at the back,
I wouldn’t cause anyone any trouble,
Just this once, please don’t say no,
Please…Please… Just agree,
Remove your hand,
Don’t say no this time, please,
Just go!
Is the amount all there? Yes, sister,
Check it again,
Josephine, did you finish packing for those Nataraja company?
Why are you looking so helpless? Is it done or not?
It’s done, sister, I just need to put the title covers,
It’s been two days since you gave it to him,
Raghu always delivers on time, Whatever happened to him?
It’s not Raghu, sister, We gave it to Shiva, a new guy,
He said he would reduce the cost by a rupee per unit,
I agreed and gave him the order,
Alright, fine, Lead the way and show me where the shop is,
I hope there are no nails in this, No, brother,
Did you check the proof? I did, brother,
It’s violet on the top and the color of tomato at the bottom,
Mix 100 ml of black and 20 ml of white,
In the same manner, reduce the amount of thinner, Is this the shop? -Yes,
Listen, fellow,
Are you done with our order?
They are talking about the Nataraj company, I just put the film in,
We have a delivery today, If you start on that now, when will you give it to us?
Didn’t you say that there was a window of ten days?
This isn’t a government job, This sort of thing always happens in this field,
It’s non-seasonal work, isn’t it? You are right, madam,
For the past two days, I haven’t been feeling too well,
Don’t give me these sorts of schoolboy excuses,
Please come back in the evening, madam,
I will get it done by then, You just loaded the film, didn’t you?
Is it really going to be done by this evening?
Evening? Evening,
Let’s go, girl,
Brother Dasu, Come, come,
What’s wrong with Michael?
He got caught so easily,
His charts must have been really unlucky,
He cracks such funny jokes, Alright, fine,
What brings you by? I need some stuff,
You will only get that if you first pay in full,
I need it by this evening,
I am having trouble with shortages,
Could you please make sure you can get me some by this evening, brother?
Alright, fine, Let’s see,
Such unlucky stars,
Bhadra…Bhadra… It’s the bus from Vijaywada,
Forget about just one or two kilos, Didn’t you say these words the day before yesterday?
“Let’s get a quintal from Paderu”
Let’s do that,
When did I say that?
You said it the other day,
What did I say?
Shiva doesn’t like all this, Let it go,
Why are you always stuck up on Shiva’s word?
It’s because he did stuff like this that he went to Borstal school,
He learnt some trade there and set up a small shop, and now he takes a moral high ground,
Why do you talk like you always obey Shiva’s words?
As if he is your parent!
He is much more important to me that you or that merchandise,
The other day things didn’t escalate because it’s Dasu,
If it was someone else…
What was so wrong with what I said?
I just wanted us to make some money and save up before Michael gets out of prison,
Does that warrant him being aggressive with me?
Why don’t you tell him if I was wrong…
Here, take it, Did I really say something I shouldn’t have?
No…no…
Bring the books quickly, brother
My children constantly pester me for books,
Give it here,
Hey! Brother…brother…
What happened? Why are you shouting?
Nothing,
Go and get that green card,
Brother? Is everything in order? Was Dasanna upset?
These days even Dasanna oversteps his boundaries,
He has a certain image to maintain,
He has to protect it by defending himself when people talk nonsense,
Is that all?
Is that enough?
What? Is it done? Yes, lady, It’s done,
You are good worker,
If you could have delivered this this morning, you would have avoided so many insults and questions,
I am sorry, It’s alright, lady,
What is this?
Why did you change the colors on this?
These are the colors that were ordered,
Where is the proof? She was the one who gave it to us,
The color of Brinjal on the top and the color of tomato on the bottom,
This is not how you see the proof, You see the proof like this,
You idiot!
Sorry, brother,
He is a kid, What’s your excuse?
Shouldn’t you have checked?
You’ve just grown tall like an electric pole, Woman,
Bhadra, I am dealing with it, Sit down,
Will the customer buy the product because of how it looks on the outside?
Who the hell is he? Listen, woman,
We are going easy on you because you are a woman,
Understand who you are talking to before you talk, We are from Vinchipeta,
Oh, you guys are from Vinchipeta?
I am not from Bejawada to shake in my boots just because you are from Vinchipeta,
I am from Bandar,
She’s from Bandar?
Bhadra, Koti…, I’ll take care of it, Just go,
Hold on, buddy, That woman is running her mouth without any thought,
Has she gone mad?
Actually, you are not at fault,
I should put the blame on our merchant who gave the order,
Correct!
My buddy will take care of the merchant, Why are you interfering?
Take those, shut your gob and just get out,
My word is my merchant’s word, Order is cancelled,
Why do you guys meddle with the affairs of this shop?
You guys always meddle in things,
What the hell are you saying? That woman was talking utter nonsense,
Do you think we’ll just watch idly? This is how business is done,
Well, we don’t know how these sorts of businesses are run, Hold on,
Why would you guys get worked up over such trivial matters?
I will deal with it, right?
Woman, Just a minute,
Committing mistakes is a very common thing when it comes to work,
You should just move on from them,
What is he doing, Bhadra? Deal’s okay,
Hold on,
Keep this money with you and take the order with you,
You look quite naïve, Hey, I’ve settled the issue,
How dare she hit me? I will not leave her,
Right! Don't leave her,
First, go to the hospital,
Did she take this route?
I thought she might have taken this route,
Why do you need all that? She is coming,
Go…go, Go and show it,
Why would I? Go!
What trust you have in me! Go and speak to her,
Go to the hospital now, Bye,
Listen, woman,
You just cancelled the order and left,
My friend incurred a loss of 15,000 rupees,
Who’s going to pay him?
Let’s use our words,
First, ask him to learn the trade,
If he threatens people like this, forget about making money,
He’s going to end up losing money,
Listen, woman, We carry knives with us in our area,
Why? Is that to cut vegetables?
She’s so hard to convince, Give it here!
You said your word and your merchant’s word is the same,
We are even, Go,
Hey, let's move from here,,, come on move,,
Hello? This is a road,
You must watch where you are walking,
This isn’t such a safe area,
There are people who move around here, Hurry and go home,
I will pull your eyes out!
'VINCHIPETA POLICE STATION'
Why did she bring this matter to the police station?
Sir…sir…sir…they are the ones, Ask them,
Hello sir!
Have you seen this girl before?
Brother, who is this girl?
I haven’t seen this girl here before in our area,
See that, You said that your friends wouldn’t lie,
We saw her at Shiva’s shop, didn’t we?
Yesterday…
We saw her, So, what now?
Did you steal money from that girl? Money?
We don’t need to steal money, sir, We have businesses of our own,
Sir, they are the ones who stole my money,
If we stole your money, we should have it with us, shouldn’t we?
Where are they? Show me,
Would people who steal money put that in their pockets and walk about?
This girl seems to be a bit confused, Ask this girl, sir,
She will tell you truthfully,
Well…sir… I don’t know if they had beards in the morning…
Tell them! I didn’t see properly…
You shouldn’t threaten the witness like that,
Girl, you say that they are the culprits,
But this girl says that she doesn’t know for sure,
Between the two of you, who should I believe?
Alright…alright… Go away,
Move,,,
How will you guys ever prosper after robbing a woman?
Alright,,,alright…go away! Sister, stop,
Why do people like them do business at all?
Take the money, live your lives after robbing people!
Stop the nonsense leave,, go
Bhadra,
Hey, Let’s go to Dasanna’s office,
Where’s the money?
Who knows? Why is he asking us?
I put it in the shop,
What is it, sister? Are you still thinking about the incident?
That’s the money I worked hard for and saved up for the past ten months,
I wanted to use it for my mother’s tests and scans,
Look at this, aunty,
It’s foolish to even get into a fight with those idiots,
Let it go, sister,
Lady? Don’t think about it,
Sister, I will speak to him, Wait,
Shut up,
Why did you come back here again?
Where are they? Where are those thieves?
Lady, they are not thieves,
They are my friends,
They did that because they think I’ve incurred a loss because of you,
Here is your money,
Sister… Sister,
The other two seem like idiots but Shiva seems to be a good guy,
Isn’t that so, sister?
Go to sleep,
Bodemma, send chutney, Okay,
Doesn’t that little one seem familiar?
Who is that girl?
She lives right in front of your house, doesn’t she?
In front of our house?
I never saw her before,
If you stop going to the flower market and circumventing Dasanna and stay proper and decent
you will notice and get to know these sorts of things,
Oh, really? We didn’t know this was the case,
We are not the kinds to stay docile and innocent in front of women
and return money back to women, even if means we take a loss,
We are not made of such feats,
Hey come,, Shiva,
Put this in your mouth and leave, I don’t want it,
He never lets anyone chide him at all,
Buddy, who is that kid? Is she her daughter?
You won’t believe when I tell you this but … it’s been a year since they came to this area,
Here, no one knows her name either,
She lives with her father,
He always sits at home and reads lots of fancy difficult books,
He is like her too, He doesn’t speak to anyone either,
Even then, she is not the kind of girl who should live in the area like ours,
Why? Is our area on another planet?
This burnt Dosa! Get another one!
The beauty of the story or a river is in its twists,
But some twists lead us into whirlpools,
What you said is right, Subba Rao, I am not denying it,
He’s someone who’s put his faith in our party for the past 20 years,
Shouldn’t we give him a chance at least once?
You won three times,
Why are you still so obsessed with power?
Power is like a girlfriend,
It’s not that easy to let it go,
You’ve served as an MLA for four terms, haven’t you?
Don’t you know what it feels like?
Bujji?
Don’t be disheartened,
I am there for you,
What’s next?
I need to go to Devi Nagar for a flyover opening, I shall take my leave,
Bujji, don’t be disheartened,
Mr, Ramu,,,
you know how much I worked for the party and how
much money I spent on the party for the past twenty years,
In politics, it’s not about working hard like a dog,
You need to be a little diplomatic as well
What else do you want me to do more than this, sir?
Looking at you, I feel like I need to do something for you,
Let’s go, I’ll tell you,
What happened here? Why is there such heavy crowd?
This is usually the case during the first week,
Do you think we will be able to get tickets?
50-100…50-100…50-100,
There are two of us, Will you make it 70 for the two of us?
Why? Come with me, I will show you the movie for free,
Have you gone crazy?
I will break your teeth,
You don’t know me very well, Hey leave me,,
Leave me,
Hey! Get lost! Go!
Thanks, It’s alright,
I have the tickets,
Please take it,
We will see the movie later, It’s alright,
Thanks,
Where is he? Did he go inside?
Why did he put the handkerchief here?
What happened, Shiva? I have a bit of a headache,
Let’s go,
What about the movie?
Let’s watch it later, Come,
Do you have a match box? Yes, I do,
Here,
There’s a lot of rush in the queue,
I bumped into a wall,
Why didn’t I get hurt?
Why are they showing us the movie right here?
If there were women there, we wouldn’t have bought the tickets,
Bhadra,
He is feeling bad that he couldn’t get her,
Why won’t you believe that I bumped into a wall?
That’s how it’s done,
That doesn’t count, I’ll hit you now, Do you want to watch?
Bhadra! He will take care of them,
Stop! Bhadra, let go!
You’ll get yourself killed! I am telling you,
Stop it, please, Why are you so angry?
Are you going to kill him and go to the prison?
If that’s what’s going to happen, I am fine with it,
Do you think everything will be over after today’s incident?
It’s only half the story,
There’s still a lot more to life, Bhadra,
Like others, we don’t have three separate lives,
The three of us have only one life and that is together, How can you let that go?
I have a lot of hope riding on our lives, Bhadra,
But I am starving,
A man named Foundry Karimullah opened a new hotel near the town center,
He serves Biryani with roselle pickle,
Guntur style,
Shall we go?
It will be good, Foundry Karimullah
Kareemula Kareem?
Whether it's Shiva getting angry or me, Koti is the one who always manages to make us laugh,
He belongs with us,
Hi,
What happened?
It’s just small bruise, Tell me,
Venkatrama & Co’s company placed an order for 40,000,
It needs to be delivered within a week, Will that be possible?
I will deliver,
Give it here, sister, Here is the proof,
No,
Thank you,
I shall take my leave, Alright, sure,
Brother, her body language is giving off suspicious vibes,
You and your stupid doubts, Just go,
Go and do your work,
Girl, since we are done with the work, let’s have some tea,
Where do you want to go, sister? Anna? No, no,
This morning, the ginger tea at Shiva’s shop was really good, wasn’t it?
Go and do your work,
What happened?
I wonder what’s happening…, In our hearts,
I wonder what happened in our dreams… in the corners of the mind,
I wonder what twist we came across in the story,,, in the twists of the heart,
I wonder what moved inside the deepest part of my heart
No matter the place I go to, I can only see your gazes,
No matter what I hear, all I hear is your name,
I wonder what’s happening…, In our hearts,
I wonder what happened in our dreams… in the corners of the mind,
I wonder what twist we came across in the story,, in the twists of the heart,
I wonder what moved inside the deepest part of my heart
How much was it? It costs 30,000!
30,000?
Why did you come here to buy if you don't have money?
Sir, this is for family only,
Please go and sit there,
Hey, Koti!
Bhadra!
My shadow keeps following you just like that,
How do I stop it?
My shadow keeps asking me to join it in following you,
How can I not oblige?
And once I come, can I really leave?
When you came into my life, a flash of lightening came onto my lips,
My fate has written this for me… it’s written this love letter,
I wonder what’s happening…, In our hearts,
I wonder what happened in our dreams… in the corners of the mind,
I wonder what twist we came across in the story,,, in the twists of the heart,
I wonder what moved inside the deepest part of my heart
It’s your name in the twists of my heart
Hey, get up,,,
Get up,,, Get up,,, Get up,,,
What happened, sir?
What’s with all this noise in the middle of the night, sir?
ACP sir is here Move,,, let's go,
Move,, move,,, Sit down,, sit down
We woke everyone up and brought them here,
Please don’t mind this treatment,
Did you give them tea?
Well, sir… You must serve them tea,
Okay, sir,
What’s going on here?
Why would he wake up someone and offer them tea when they were drunk and went to sleep?
He’s from Orissa, Perhaps that’s how they do things there,
330 thefts, 240 boot legging offences…
What’s boot-legging called in Telugu?
It’s brewing alcohol illegally, sir, Yes, that’s the one,
Marijuana smugglings, etc…etc
There are 250 families in Vinchipet but the amount of crime cases are a thousand,
State record,
Stop that! Stop that! Stop it!
Let’s stay the same,
I will give it to you straight,
From now on, there shouldn’t be any crime news reported about Vinchipeta
We’ve been saying the same thing to the press as well, sir,
They are the ones who just put us in unnecessary spotlight,
That’s Dasu, sir,
Mr, Dasu, you are right,
The press behaves like that,
They put only those that they like in the spotlight,
One time, I made four extrajudicial killings in Parlakhemundi,
But these people here say that they killed only one person in such manner,
I felt really bad,
I came here to speak to you but I was in lost in a conversation and couldn’t remember it,
Come…come,, That’s alright, sir, I will sit here,
Come, Mr, Dasu, It’s alright, Go…go…
I heard a lot about you,
I heard that you are the father figure for Vinchipet,
That’s just respect, sir,
Everyone said that if Dasanna changes, it’s as good as the entire Vinchipet changing,
This goes for you all as well,
You shouldn’t bother Dasanna by asking him to give you some
Marijuana to sell just because you have to meet some needs at home,
Of course not, Not at all, Yes, that’s the way,
We will not bother him, sir, You guys are all good people,
You shouldn’t pressurize them either, Alright, sir,
Why are you staring?
Didn’t I tell you that Dasanna is going to be felicitated?
Felicitation?
May be that policeman is not alright in his head,
Make sure that this isn’t the last photo of yours,
If any of you need something, whenever or whatever that is, please come and meet me,
Remember this,
My name… is Panda Venkata Subbuddhi,
Now, Dasu will never work again,
Young man? Just a minute of your time,
Could you please come inside once? I need to speak to you,
My eldest daughter Sujatha,
And her daughter,
She has a good job and is married into a very good family,
Just because my daughter liked him,…
and even before we could figure out what kind of man she liked
I lost my own home and even my daughter,
The reason why I called you here to tell you all this is because
to make sure that my youngest daughter doesn’t go through the
same thing that my eldest daughter went through,
Young man…what about your parents?
What do you do for living?
If you have any relatives… Stop it, sir,
I don’t have any relatives,
And you didn’t have to call me in private and tell me all this pointedly,
Everyday, someone or the other points this out to me,
Is it my fault that I have no one?
It’s people like you…people like you who know everything
He gave birth to me and threw me in the dustbin and left me,
People like me aren’t going to give you problems, sir,
We just live, survive and die somewhere or the other,
It’s because of people like you
You calculated all the possibilities and then got her married, didn’t you?
What happened then?
You read big, great books,
But you can’t see beyond the dirt that sits on our skin,
These educated people!
If you live in places like this, don’t expect to find people like Gandhi or Nehru,
You will only find orphans like me!
If you live in places like this, don’t expect to find people like Gandhi or Nehru,
You will only find orphans like me!
Damn these women are just like that! They always leave men in a lurch,
Forget about it,
Since I am quite old, listen to me,
Who are you? You are Vinchipet’s tiger,
And when someone like you is sad, my heart is being twisted,
Buddy, we are not suited for things such as love and marriage,
Let it go,
Bhadra, listen to me,
Go to Paderu and spend your time in peace there,
People there are our kind of people, I’ve arranged for everything,
Listen, whatever you desire, Forget it,
Along with that, our merchandise is in Paderu,
When you come back, bring it along,
I mean take your time to think it over,
Let’s go, Listen, leave him alone,
Come,
Come soon,
Give it some deep thought,
Hi,
Tomorrow and the day after, don’t make any work commitments,
My mother wants to meet you,
Don’t forget about it,
He won’t forget it, He will absolutely not forget it!
Hey! Brother, congratulations, Thank you,
There you are!
What is that? Navarang Samosa,
I brought because you like it,
Give it to Bhadra as well,
He…
Well…Nothing, What is that?
A gold chain?
Bhadra
What’s all this?
Tomorrow, I am meeting with Meena’s mother,
You’ve finally settled the matter,
I will only get to know after I go and meet her tomorrow,
What would you know?
Meena will introduce her mother to you,
Who will you introduce?
Aren’t you guys there for me?
Do you think just because three orphans are together, does that make them a family?
Why is he talking like this? I am talking sense,
Tomorrow when you go there, they are going to ask you who your father and mother are,
What are you going to tell them?
Why will they ask me all that, Bhadra? That is exactly what they will ask,
No one is going to enquire as to the kind of person you are,
These meetings are usually reserved for people who have families,
If I bring these up, you say nonsense like finding the Goddess’s necklace in such a big river,
Is it possible to find that necklace?
How are the both related? Leave it,
Shiva?
Shiva, have a beer,
What’s up with him? What happened?
Hey, aren't you coming to the shop?
Just one minute, mother, Never mind, dear,
Let’s meet him again another time,
I shall take my leave,
Young man, please go,
Is this what you exposed? Yes, brother,
How many times do I have to tell you to watch out carefully?
Why are you cutting my call?
I was a bit busy,
If you don’t like me, you should say that you don’t like me,
When my mother left, she looked at me as if she was questioning my choice of you,
What’s gone wrong now?
If not now, I will meet her again another time,
You keep harping about your mother all the time,
I expected a lot from you, It’s my fault,
Everyone was right about you people,
All of you are the same,
You taught me a good lesson,
Sister
Sister, wait a minute,
What is it?
Please don’t misunderstand brother Shiva,
He didn’t say that because he was angry with you,
If it’s not anger then what is it? How else do you want me to understand it?
Sister
yesterday,,,
Bhadra and Shiva got into a small fight,
What happened?
Brother Shiva told him that he would like to meet your mother,
Bhadra… Tell me!
he said no,
Why is that person interfering in our affairs?
I already guessed a long time ago that he would do some such nonsense,
Does he want everyone to become like him?
To make sure he doesn’t interfere in our affairs, I am going to warn him,
Stop, sister,
I’ve been noticing this since a while now, sister,
Be it Brother Bhadra or Koti, you just don’t like them at all,
Only if you understand Brother Bhadra and Koti completely,
you would be able to understand Brother Shiva,
Hey! Stop! Stop there!
Where else are you guys going to run to?
Hey, here the stuff
Come, Catch me if you can
How dare you?
Stop! Stop there!
Selling ganja? How dare you!
Get in,,
Shiva!
Buddy, did you meet with her mother?
Sorry, buddy, Forget about it!
Where is he?
Blood!
You are right, Shiva,
If you search for it, you will find it,
What Shiva says is right,
Anything you search for, you can find it,
Whether its in the river or in life,
Bhadra!
What,,,
Brother, if anyone asks you whether you have a family,
that you have a mother and a sister,
Brother, why are you looking at her like that?
If she ties a rakhi, you must give her something or the other,
Where did I put my shirt
my red shirt? I gave it to you, didn’t I?
Hey! There’s money in the red shirt,
She tied a Rakhi to me, so I have to give her a gift,
River goddess Krishnamma, River goddess Krishnamma,
My heart overflowed just like you do, It overflowed with happiness,
This branch and that leaf showered us with some sweet fragrance this minute,
There are flowers made of smiles blooming on the cheeks,
There are little gifts in the hands,
The silences echoes with names,
People who are not related to one another,
are our relatives if they share the same warm heart as ours,
When this cloud carrying the rain of sweet moments came upon me,
Time turned into a dream,
When the strings of the Veena that gives our sweetest boons move,
The story turned into a magical fair,
River goddess Krishnamma, My heart overflowed just like you do,
It overflowed with happiness,
This branch and that leaf showered us with some sweet fragrance this minute,
Doesn’t the life move like a dream when you are
amidst people who are there to console and comfort you?
Doesn’t the life move forward like a dream
when you are amidst people who heal your heart?
This kite can fly and touch the sky only when it surrenders to the
thread, Only then does it keep flying happily,
The heart said that it’s not imprisoned by any
pain or suffering but it surrenders to friendship,
In the evenings, we have fun and chat, help each other out and sing a few broken tunes,
Just ‘Hey, buddy’ is enough and the intimacy of asking a friend
to take a hike…all these turn weeks into mere moments,
River goddess Krishnamma, My heart overflowed just like you do,
It overflowed with happiness,
This branch and that leaf showered us with some sweet fragrance this minute,
Bhadra! I will call you after unloading,
Bhadra has changed a lot, uncle,
He gave up everything from the past and now drives an auto,
I'll think about it,
Thanks uncle,
Sister!
Give me the mobile,
No, let's surprise Brother Bhadra tomorrow,
Alright, fine,
Hello? Hello!
I am calling from Bandar Govt, hospital,
Your mother’s condition become quite serious
and she got admitted here to this hospital in the morning,
Please hurry up,
Careful! Young man, that’s not good, Sit here,
It’s alright,
Didn’t I tell you get it fixed?
They are asking for 200 to 300 rupees for such small work,Why bother with it?
You never take care of anything until it gets worse,
Why do you think I work so far away in Vijaywada?
They say that your surgery costs two to three lakhs,
How can I arrange for that sort of money so suddenly?
Did you ever listen to me once? Young man?
Meena!
She is an elder, Forget about it,
Young man, she is foolish,
She just talks like that,
Why should we believe what the doctor said?
Do you think I don’t know my health?
At the most, it’s going to be a week or ten days,
That's all,
Young man,
I don’t know if I can get my daughter married
But, you must stand as her brother and get her married,
One minute,
I will get you some coffee,
I don’t know what to do, buddy,
What can’t you understand?
Bhadra, hasn’t Dasanna been asking you to go
to Paderu and get the merchandise for some time now?
If the both of us go and bring it, and give it to him
I will talk to Dasanna and get the required amount for Meena’s mother’s surgery,
You just have to say yes,
There’s no need for all that,
If you say no to everything, what should we do then?
If I run the auto and you run the shop, will we be able to make three lakhs in a week?
Let's call Dasanna,
If we can’t make the money, let’s just ask someone,
Who is going to loan us three lakhs?
Everyone is out there to ask who your parents are,
None of them step forward to help us when we need help,
You talk about asking for a loan!
Call Dasanna, I will speak to him,
Don’t you think it’s not correct to indulge in such acts for the sake of fixing this?
Shiva,
every Dussehra festival, you would always keep saying and wishing we had a family of our own,
We now have that family,
It’s not right to let go of that family either, buddy,
Koti and I will go and get the merchandise,
You just take care of Meena’s mother,
Let’s go,
Hey, wait,, What is it now?
I will come with you as well,
Where do you think you want to come?
Have you gone crazy? Just take good care of them,
Let’s go,
I already told you, didn’t I?
Like other people, the three of us do not have separate lives,
We have only one life and that’s together,
Whether it’s for profit or loss, you can only go if I am coming with you,
Don’t worry, We are there with him, aren’t we? Let’s go,
For the first time you’ve listened to Shiva’s words and brought him to us,
But this time, you shouldn’t have listened to his words,
Stop there and have some tea,
If we cross the Ramavarappadu circle, we will be safe,
Hey, that looks like Bhadra,
Brother, it’s him, It’s Bhadra,
Call our people and ask them to come to Ramavarappadu Circle,
You wait,
Koti listen to me,,,
Don’t get down, I’ll take care of it,
Why are you obstructing the road? Why? Won’t he get down?
I heard that you’ve taken over the business just because I wasn’t around?
I heard that you are trading in tonnes,
Where from? From Paderu?
It's not stuff… Just flowers,
Flowers,,,?
Let’s tuck two flowers each between our ears,
Let’s go, I am warning you,
Why are you scared? They are just flowers,
You shouldn’t touch them,
Why?
They are offered to the Gods, Why do I need those details?
Because of you, I’ve been in prison for the past ten months,
I came here to demand how you would compensate me for it,
Sorry, buddy,
Let the bygones be bygones, Please
It’s not enough,
Koti!
Bhadra! Bhadra!
That’s enough, Get up,
Go and get in the vehicle,
Get in, It’s not enough,
This compensates for the ten-month prison sentence,
But because of you, the police have banished me from the village and
from entering the Ramavarappadu Circle,
How will you compensate for that?
Listen, tomorrow I will come and speak to you about it,
For now, let it go,
Whatever it is, we must settle it now, Do this,
That girl…, I meant your sister
just leave her to me for two years,
Let me go,
I will get her pregnant and give her back to you after two years,
Is that fair?
Bhadra!
Stop… Bhadra…don’t,
Leave him
Bhadra!
Hey stop it,, stop,
Bhadra…come, Hey!
What's this nuisance on the roads?
We are innocent, sir,
They are the ones who are drunk and picked a fight with us,
They came and picked a fight with us, sir,
They are drunk, sir,
Bring all those vehicles to the station,
We are innocent, sir,
They stopped us, We are innocent, sir,
Sir, forensic report
Sir, I have prepared the reports to be sent to the SP's office,
Tell me what you wrote in the reports?
Nothing, sir,,,
I wrote, In the Kondapalli forest region, two unknown individuals fought each other,
and one killed the other,
There will be a dispute over some money shares,
My foot!
That's not exactly what happened there,
The fight was not between them
They both together killed another person,
The report indicated that only two individuals' fingerprints and footprints were found at the crime scene,
Don't you see that they mentioned there are also three blood samples?
Sorry sir,
What do we report to the SP's office, sir?
We are not writers to imagine what happened at the crime scene;
we are police officers,
Let's inquire,,,
By the way,,,
Did you find any footage of the CCTV camera at the forest guest house?
We have collected, sir,
Play
This is footage from August 20th,
Play the video footage from the previous day at the same time,
Play the before day footage,
Check if there are any records of cases involving both of them in the police records,
Okay sir,
How much is the pot worth?
50 rupees, sir,
The market price for this is lower than your quote,
We don’t sell impure stuff, sir,
What do you mean?
We don’t use gravel,
We use the red soil and clay soil and then make it, sir,
You seem to know so much about soils,
Don’t you know how valuable information is to a police case?
And you worked in the department for over ten years,
Your hand only goes half way to salute your superiors,
Why?
Are you in pain?
Look there,
Don’t you remember him?
Case no, 402 A/18,
After they were given a sentence,
you took a Voluntary retirement despite having 25 more years of service,
is it just to make these pots?
Why?
I am asking you only,,,
It wasn’t just two people who were arrested in this case, sir,
There were three people,
Who are these people?
Last night, at Ramvarapadu junction
You get drunk and create such nuisance in the middle of the roads at night,
Sir… Sir
Sir… They…They are not at fault, sir,
They were the ones who were drunk and picked a fight with them, sir,
I made the enquiry, sir,
If that’s the case, why did you make them sit here?
Are they here to attend a party?
Take their details and send them away, Okay, sir,
After those guys get sober, bring them inside,
What is your name?
Bhadra, sir,
What’s your address?
Vinchipet, What goods are you carrying?
Marigold flowers, sir,
Balakrishna, Murthy went out to get some flowers, He didn’t come back yet,
Make them give you a basket of flowers,
Mr, Durga, take care of those marigold flowers errand,
Okay,
Tell me the number of the vehicle,
AP16 C1651,
Where are you coming from?
Hey, I am talking to you,
Where are you guys coming from?
Kadiyam, sir,
Put your signatures down here,
Sir, the flowers,
Durga Rao, we don’t need the flowers anymore,,, Just come back,
Why are you guys still here? Go away,
Sir!
You smuggle Marijuana and say that they are marigold flowers?
Marigold flowers, is it? Sir…sir
So, you are coming from Kadiyum, is it? Sir…sir
Kadiyum, is it?
Why are you shielding him when I am hitting him?
Aren’t you scared of the police?
Sir, That’s not it, sir,
You come here,
Sir…sir You won't change, will you?
Remove your shirt, I’ll remove it,
I’ll remove it, sir,
After the new ACP joined the post, thugs are scared to even bring in a
quarter kilo or half kilo of the narcotic,
Aren’t you scared of the police?
It’s not because we aren’t scared of the police, sir,
Then, what is it?
We were driven by need, sir,
How much would it be?
About 2 or 3, sir,
Not when you bought it, I meant when you sell it,
It would be worth between 10 or 15, sir,
Oh my!
10 to 15 lakhs?
Tomorrow and the day after are the Dussehra holidays,
The next day after that, the court is going to meet at 10 a,m,
Do this,
Bring two lakhs, Sir,,
Arranging for two lakhs this suddenly
Durga Rao! Yes, sir,
Write the FIR and lock everyone up, Sir…sir
I will take care of it, sir,
Brother, if needed, please cut it out from our share,
He will bring it, sir, He will,
Forget about FIR, Write it in the general diary,
Sir!
Just do as I ask you to,
If they need something to eat, provide it to them,
Dasanna,
Meena’s mother’s surgery along with the money or bribe…
Stop it, man,
Getting these two lakhs itself is going to tear at my nerves,
Until the merchandise comes out, I cannot do anything,
Brother
Sir, I need to make a call once, Phone?
Alright, fine, Hurry up and return it,
Hello,,,
Hello, Meena? I’m giving the phone to Shiva,
Meena! Shiva, where are you?
I am not able to reach you on the phone, Don’t worry,
We came to Vizag for money, We will return soon,
How is your mother?
Hey, hang up,
What’s up, Manju? Snake game?
Yes sir,
Very good,
Sir,
Sir, Dasanna… We will inform you when he comes,
Sit down!
Here,,, have lunch,
Hey! Get up! Get up!
Is Dasu here? No, sir,
We cannot reach him on the phone either, sir, Do you have another number?
Say another number,
Call that fellow and tell him that by the end of this evening, he should be here,
Inform this to the Vinchipeta police station as well,
Okay, sir, How dare you?
How dare you play games with the police?
Write the FIR and bring these people along with those guys to the courts,
Okay, sir,
Keep moving,
Come,
Hello?
Sir,
Tell me, sir,
Get in, Get in the jeep,
Hey, stop, Stop them,
Not that jeep, Get them into this jeep,
Come here, This side…this side
Mr, Durga Rao,
Sir, Where is the FIR file on them?
Alright, alright, Hurry,
Get in, fellows, Hurry up and get in,
Bhadra… Court
'DISTRICT SESSIONS COURT'
Sir, Where are we going, sir?
The court is that way, isn’t it?
Sir…Sir… Where are you taking us?
We didn’t commit any murders or rape anyone,
It’s just a marijuana case, sir,
Are you going to kill us just for this, sir?
Sir, please tell us, Where are you taking us to, sir?
Sir…
Remove your cap,
Sir…
Take off your cap, I say,
The people who are hungry and in need can commit a crime and give an excuse,
But,,,
Sorry, sir,
Sit down,
What we did was wrong, sir, First, sit down,
Dasu,
Even though I came to your area and gave you a warning,
you bought two quintals of stock and brought it into the village,
It’s not because we weren’t scared, sir,
It’s because of our need,
The thing about need is that it makes anyone do anything,
Sir!
It was need that brought you here instead of taking you to the courts,
What’s the case, sir?
When such a big man is asking you, why are you asking him about the case?
Prabhakar,
Case
The case isn’t as big as you think it’s going to be,
I am wondering how to put it across to you
Hello?
Savitri,,,
Is her name Savitri?
Sir,
I mean that girl’s mother, Isn’t her name Savitri?
Yes, sir,
Yes, Okay, thank you,
Sir…The operation is over, sir, She is safe now,
Thanks sir,
Regarding the case… Sir…sir
The need that we were talking about is related to her, sir,
It doesn’t matter what the case is,,, Bhadra!
You wait,,
Koti and I will… It doesn’t matter what case you want us to admit to,
But please let go of Shiva, sir,
If that girl gets to know about this…
Bhadra,,,
He called you because he requires the three of you,
Don’t worry about Shiva,
If you want, I will speak to Meena,
It’s alright, Bhadra,
Prabhakar,
Sir,
Take over the case,
Okay, sir,
Shift the CCS case, Okay, sir,
You,,, come
Tell me your details,
What is your name?
Bhadra,
Sir
What’s the case, sir?
Just wait for a day and you will get to know it,
Section 375, 376A, 30… Sir,,,
Please explain it so we can understand,
Did you guys ever go to the court?
Why do you fold your hands like that ?
Why don’t you button yourselves up properly?
The judge is going to come in, As soon as you see him, don’t be alarmed,
He’s going to ask you if you are Shiva, Koti and Bhadra,
How are you going to agree?
Yes, sir…, yes, sir
Not like that,
You shouldn’t look into the judge’s eyes,
Hang your head down,
He’s going to ask if you know all about this case,
What are you going to say?
What is that blank expression on your faces?
At times like that, I am going to be here,
You must look at me,
Now, look at me,
Hang your head down,
Yes…yes…just like that,
You should look like that,
If my head hands down, that means it’s a yes,
If I lift my head up, that means it’s a no,
Stop all this nonsense and coming to the conclusion, sir,
He’s going to ask you if you have a lawyer,
What are you going to say?
No, No,
What? Am I not here?
Please step aside, I am their lawyer,
Cuff them, We are getting late,
Where did you find such idiots?!
For the past three days, the police have never shown us the faces of the three accused persons,
And today, they are going to bring the accused to the district court,
Let’s try and talk to the accused now,
Let’s try and hear what they want to say in their own words,
Let’s talk to them, Let’s talk to them again,
Please move aside,
You guys come,
Get down, Come,
Move,
Sir…sir…
I am sure you’ve been listening to the rumors surrounding this,
Could you please provide us with a clarification, sir?
You all know how sensitive this case is,
After the proceedings are over, I will give you all my statement,
Okay,
Sir, another question, Just wait… be patient,
Sir… No more questions,
Case no, 402 A/18,
Move,
Bhadra…Shiva…Koti,
It’s us, sir,
Fellows, did you get the paper related to the case?
Yes, sir, We got them,
Did you guys surrender on your own or did the police arrest you?
Sir, the police arrested them, your honor,
Did the police inform your family that you have been taken into custody?
They neither have any blood relatives or some guardians of sorts,
They are orphans,
They’ve written a lot about you guys in the chargesheet,
Did you guys read it and check it?
If not, we will get someone to read it for you here,
We’ve got it read by the court-appointed interpreter and they heard him as well, your honor,
Am I asking them or you?
Don’t you know the procedures of the court?
Sorry, your honor,
You guys tell me, Did anyone read the entire chargesheet to you?
Yes, sir, They did,
Alright, Do you have a defense counsel?
When I am asking you the question here, why are looking over there?
Do you have a defense counsel to represent you or not?
I am asking you, No sir,
Do we?
Mr, Sri Ram Murthy,
Sir!
Since the accused say that they do not have a defense lawyer,
this court is appointing you as their defense counsel,
Yes, your honor,
Case no, 402 A/18 Section 302, 376 A, accused to be remanded for seven days
under police custody and to be presented in the court in the same condition,
Don’t you know how to prepare the three of them properly?
Sir,
The judge intentionally used the word defense,
That is where they were confused,
Make sure there is no more confusion,
Okay, sir,
Be careful with the media,
Brother? Brother? Brother Bhadra
Brother Bhadra,, Koti
Brother Bhadra
Sir, please tell us what the case is about?
You didn’t say what you were supposed to and ruined the whole thing,
And you?!
Hey, go,
You guys are not at fault,
The lawyer will be here,
Don’t be confused, Careful,
Sir,
You are the station Inspector of Ramvarappadu, aren’t you?
Yes, sir,
What are you doing here?
Sir,,,
He’s been deputed here to follow up with this case, sir,
Move,
Did you write the general dairy ? I did, sir,
Bring it here,
All good, sir? Where are they?
Where will they go, sir?
Coffee? Where are they?
Where are you all going?
Protocol, sir,
Security reasons, sir,
You come with me,
Koti, we should have given it some thought before speaking in the court,
It looks like the police officer was blamed for our poor show,
We’ve been asking them about the case ever since we got here,
If we knew what it was, we would have managed somehow,
Why do you always keep talking about the case?
Isn’t the police officer such a good man?
The lawyer is here, Lawyer, I will ask him,
Sir, Hold on!
Sir, please tell us what this case is about?
No matter who we ask, no one is telling us anything, sir,
At least you tell us, please sir,
You agreed to this without knowing what the case is about?
Do you know how big a case this is?
I am so tired after chasing people around just to get money,
Will the one lakh be arranged for sure by tomorrow morning?
Don’t go back on your word,
Alright, brother,
What are you guys doing here?
They went to get the money,
They said they would come to you within two to three days,
I don’t need the money anymore, brother,
Brother, mother died last night,
We are unable to reach brother Shiva over the phone,
Where is brother Shiva and the others?
Even when I called them, I couldn’t get through to them,
As soon as I get through to them, I will tell them of the matter and send them to you, dear,
Why do you need to stay out here? Go home,
Hey, take your sister and go,
I will try calling them once again, dear,
As soon as I reach them, I will inform them of what happened,
Go home safely,
Get her on the bus carefully,
Sister,
'VIJAYA DURGA LADIES HOSTEL'
Sister,
Sister, let’s go back home,
If the brothers come to see you, tell them that I am still at the hostel,
What happened, dear?
Why did you return all alone in the middle of the night?
Since it’s the festival holidays, there’s no one in the hostel, dear,
Just you alone
It’s alright, uncle,
Where? Inside, sir,
Forensic team? They are here, sir,
Track the mobile phone details, Okay, sir,
Sir,,, Watchman, sir,
Warden,
At the end of my shift, I came for rounds, sir,
The entire room looked disheveled,
The window glass was all broken,
I got scared and called the police, sir,
Did you call the police? No, sir, First, he called me,
And after that…since it was the morning, I called the police while getting dressed, sir,
The police came and later,,,
I got greedy because I was promised the opportunity to contest as a corporator,
One day I met MLA’s son, sir,
What's the matter?
Bujji, he is a person who is very important for us,
Namaste, young man,
What can you do if you are given an opportunity to contest in the corporator elections?
I didn’t understand what he meant then, sir,
For the past ten years, the approval for the CC road hasn’t been given,
If I win, I will get the CC road done, What are you talking about?
What’s with this man?
Do you think you get an opportunity to contest so easily?
Just do what the Youngman asks of you,
Young man, the elections are in two months,
Could you please talk to your father about me once
Did we come here because we can’t find this alcohol out there?
First, do what’s necessary,
Since it’s the festival holidays, all the girls have gone back to their homes,
I'll arrange once they came
Let’s go,
Since it’s raining, please go from this side,
He poured us drinks but didn’t have any entertainment to offer,
What a useless guy!
Brother, if someone asks you if you have a family tell them that you have a mother and a sister,
Don’t do all this here,
Prabhakar,
Sir,
Take him to custody,
Okay sir,
Sir,,,
He is here, sir,
Sir, it’s the MLA,
Tell him that the resignation will be faxed,
Did you hear that, sir? Who is dealing with the case?
ACP Subbudhi, sir,
Give him the phone, Sir,
ACP, why don’t you deal with this quietly?
You must have seen the news channels as well,
Don’t you know how many orphans are in the country?
Can’t you find three?
When you can’t handle such small issues,
How can you handle the entire state when you become an IG in the future?
Sir?
How can you handle the entire state when you become an IG in the future?
They broke all the window glasses in the hostel, That’s fine,
But why did they write ‘Love’ on the wall with blood?
That girl has a boyfriend, sir,
Didn’t you deal with them without hitting them?
Didn’t I already tell you not to?
Where are those guys?
Sir…they are not related to this case
Don’t make me say it again and again,
In Ramvarampadu police station
Hello? Sir, I am Circle Inspector, Prabhakar,
Please tell me sir,
Take those three associates of Dasu and come to the guest house,
Why, sir?
Won’t you bring them if I don’t tell you why?
No, sir, I will bring them to you,
Hey! Stop, Get them into this jeep,
Just because they are orphans and have no one to answer to
you trick them and make them culprits in the case?
Please don’t say that they are innocent,
They brought 2 quintals of Marijuana into the village,
How can they be innocent?
The media tries to make up all sorts of stories to shift the blame on to some high value targets,
Why would you talk so naïve?
Do I look like an illiterate to you?
Write this in the chargesheet and come to the court,
That’s where we will see who’s right, Sir,,,sir…sir
Sit down, sir, Let’s talk,
Please,
If you can reach, you would grab my neck,
That’s not what this is, sir,
They are orphans,
Even if they are in the prison or out of it, it doesn’t make a lot of difference,
But you are not like that,
You need more…more…more What more,, more,,?
You are going to throw some money at me or promote me to a position such as munsiff Magistrate post,
Do I look like someone who desires such things?
Go outside and find out what I am made of,
What’s there to find out sir?
I know that there were times when what you wrote became the
basis for court ruling without the need for even closing arguments,
That is why I came here and bowed my head in respect, sir,
There’s always a price, sir,
A 12-year-old scotch bottle has a different value compared to a 30-year old scotch bottle,
Of course, there’s a price,
Given your stature, you are beyond the level of Munsif and district courts,
I heard somewhere that you told your wife this when you were a newly-wed
“Someday, I am going to retire as a high court judge”,
I got to know that, sir,
Why are you still thinking about it, sir?
Well… those guys don’t even know what they were being tried for in the court,
But now…
Will they agree?
Will you agree to be the accused?!
Agree to it!
Admit it!
Will you agree to be the accused?!
Admit it!
Talk to them sir,
Who the hell was that?!
Is this the way how you make them admit it?
Bring them down!
Sir,
In the end, we are all human,
At times, mistakes such as this do happen,
Let the bygones be bygones,
Alright, how old are you guys? Around 28 and 29?
Tomorrow, if you agree in front of the judge that you did it,
you will spend 7-8 years in the prison,
At the max, it would be 10 years,
That’s all,
When you guys come out, I will arrange 25 lakhs for each of you,
Go somewhere, live with the women you like in peace,
Let it go,
Well,
these hostel girls aren’t as innocent as you think,
I am going to tell you something and I hope you are not offended,
We got to know in the enquiry that Meena did it a couple of times as well,
Bastard!
Bring the chilli powder,
Is there no one in the entire central zone,,,
who will pluck these fellows’ nerves out and get them to agree?
SI Peter babu’s team is the perfect team for this job, sir,
Sir, two of both of them agreed,
Did you listen?
When Meena’s boyfriend agreed, why are you still holding out?
Why put yourself through unnecessary pain?
You only know them for three days,
I know them since my childhood,
Useless fellows!
What next?
When is the DNA test?
It’s at 10 p,m,, sir,
When will the second show of the theater at the Gandhi Nagar center end?
Raj-Yuvaraj at 12 o’clock, sir,
Urvasi complex at 12:15 a,m,, sir,
Jai Ram theatre at 12:30 a,m,, sir,
Tomorrow, all the theatres at the Gandhi Nagar show must finish out at 12 o’clock sharp,
Alright, sir,
Just go,
Come out,
You go in, Is everything clear there?
It’s clear, sir, Hey, you come here,
You go and stand there,
Okay,
Sir, the location is under control, We are on the way,
Drive,
Get down, Get down, fellows!
Where are you taking us, sir?
Why do you guys want to die for a whore?
Hey you,,,
Shiva!
Sit down! Kneel down!
Will you agree or will you die?
Tell me, you scoundrels! Will you agree or will you die?
This is it,
This is how you get them to agree,
In the sensational rape & murder case of Meena in Vijaywada,
the primary accused are Shiva, Koti and Bhadra,
Shiva died in a suspicious manner in an extra judicial killing,
Bhadra and Koti were handed down a unique 12-year sentence by the court,
If we let them be, what if they come out of the jail tomorrow and hurt my son,,,
Don’t shout!
You don’t trust your son as much as the young men outside,
Sir,,,
Explain it to him, ACP,
They live a life where their entire focus is on feeding themselves somebody else’s leftovers,
They are not capable of remembering revenge or love,
They are like ants, sir,
Forget about them,
An army of ants, uniting to kill the head of a snake is something that’s possible only in mythologies,
Not in reality,
"His gaze is empty…just empty,"
Hey, why are you so stubborn?
It’s an oath, sir,
"There is just silence on the surface, But there is a storm raging inside,"
"Every moment is death, In the next moment there is a birth,"
"The wounds of the past Are alive in the memories and are remembered,"
"Tomorrow doesn’t heal them,"
"Even if it’s your anger, stow it away safely, Until it’s your day,"
"The impatience that stands as tall as the sky, Bury it in deepest depths,"
It’s Shiva who is dead, How are you able to live on?
We’ve grown up together,
How are you able to live through this?
Where is your mind at?
"Determination flashed like the lightening,"
"This rain turned into a creek, next a river and then turned into a flood now,"
"Are you fighting against a tornado by holding onto a few tender leaves in your hands?"
"It began as a tiny sapling… the slow healing… this bitter sadness,"
After witnessing all this, do you think it’s right to continue working on that job?
Or is it better to quit the job and work the land?
Please advise me, sir,
Leave,,, Please leave once
It’s a 12-year-old revenge, Koti,
Are you going to kill him by stabbing him just once?
Why are you wasting time?
Be patient please
Who are you guys?
Who the hell are you guys?!
Don’t you recognize us, sir?
Tell me, you scoundrels! Are you going to agree or are you going to die?!
You didn’t forget about it yet?
For the past twelve years, I grew my revenge like a plant,
What is it?
What is all this?
Isn’t this why you did all this?
All these are going to stop you from death,
Can you really go out after you kill me?
Remove it,
That day you didn’t kill Shiva, sir,
You killed our hope to live,
When that hope is dead, how does it matter if we are alive or dead, you,,,
It was a mistake, ,I made a mistake, Please let me go,
I will make sure that justice is served, Please let me go,
Hey, Bhadra!
You’re going get me justice?
Koti!
He is saying something, Did you hear that?
Why are you sitting and talking to him?!
Why don’t you just stab him and finish him off?
Don’t mind his words, sir,
I will ask you two questions,
Will you give me an honest answer, sir?
How does the government give these big shot jobs to people like you?
Well, there are tests
Tests?
There are physical tests,
You mean like running and jumping,
What else?
There are written tests,
What are they?
The tests are given to ensure if a person is smart and capable or not,
But the tests don’t see if the candidate is a good person or a bad person, or if he has empathy,
Of course, they are not tested,
If they did, why would someone like you become a police officer?
That day you killed Shiva right in front of our eyes,
And you spared us,
Why?
Our lives are filled with an everyday search for leftovers to feed our hungry bellies,
You must have thought that we know nothing of love or revenge, huh?
You must think we can’t see past our hunger,
Isn’t that so, sir?
You thought our lives were as inconsequential as the ants, didn’t you?
You,,, What the hell are you doing?
Don’t do it! No, don’t,
Please,,,
Please spare me, Please don’t kill me,
Please, Please let me go,
Sir,
I shall take my leave,
Sir!
They conducted a recce on the minister, It's the right time to arrest them,
Sit,
Sir!
Sit down,
What did you think after hearing what Durgarao said?
They are not those who have committed a crime and have been punished,
They are those who have been punished and are committing crimes,
They have reconciled the accounts; let them go,
Right sir,
Take the glass,
Well,,
Isn't there a file related to the coconut scam at that Durgamma temple?
Give it here,
Jai Bhavani!
Koti!
Bhadra!
That scoundrel is escaping!
Who the hell are you?
All these days, I thought I was in pain because we didn’t know who
we were born to and how we came to this world,
The real pain is not knowing why we are dying and at whose hands, you,,,
Bhadra! Is that scoundrel dead?
The river Krishna, whose birth, location, and manner of origin are unknown,
considered them who were unaware of when and where they were born, and how they grew up,
as her children, and she united them within herself,
"River goddess Krishnamma, River goddess Krishnamma,,,"
"My heart overflowed just like you do,"
"This branch and that leaf showered us with some sweet fragrance this minute,"
"There are flowers made of smiles in the cheeks, There are little gifts in the hands,"
"The silences have echo with names,"
"People who are not related to one another, are our relatives if they share the same warm heart as ours,"
"When this cloud carrying the rain of sweet moments came upon me,"
"Time turned into a dream,"
"When the strings of the Veena that gives our sweetest boons move,"
"The story turned into a magical fair,"
"River goddess Krishnamma, My heart overflowed just like you do,"
"This branch and that leaf showered us with some sweet fragrance this minute,"
"Doesn’t the life move like a dream when you are amidst people,,,"
" who are there to console and comfort you?"
"Doesn’t the life move forward like a dream,"
"This kite swims happily in the sky snapping free of the thread that binds it,"
"The heart says that there’s no pain or worry, It’s just a prisoner of good friendship,"
"Gathering together in the evening, A helpful hand and good advice"
"And the broken tunes that are hummed from amateur throats,"
"A friendly hello and endearing goodbyes,"
"All these turn weeks into mere minutes and moments,"
"When this cloud carrying the rain of sweet moments came upon me, "
"Time turned into a dream,"
