Hey, water lorry!
Wetting the mat every other day...
Why did you hide this?
Hey, don't run!
Wait till I catch you...
I’ll chop your wee-wee and feed it to the crows!
What a brilliant idea!

You sneak rice from home!
It's not the same thing
Shut up!

Call them if you need a local commercial...
...but they're frauds!
This doesn't look like ten thousand square feet
It will be accurate, sir
It better be! We're investing eighty million on this
Did you say eighty million?
Then our commission is eight hundred thousand
But we agreed on four hundred thousand!
Sir, you first said it was forty million
...but your man says it's eighty!
So it's eight hundred thousand, right? One percent!
It's just a slip of the tongue
Sir, some men you've got!
Hey, come here
It's impossible to find ten thousand square feet of real estate these days
Everyone is breaking it into little pieces and selling!

Will dad get us the cell phone like he promised?
First let your dad come out
What did your husband say?
You've been down since the visit
He used to be so macho!
Doesn't look the same now
Aren't you angry with him? Or are you pretending?
I'll get angry, but after I bring him home
Just tell me, is there a way to get him out?
You have to go and see that creep
I mean that area leader of ours Shameless bald oaf!
Lawyer said, with just a word from leader, I can bring my husband out
But the leader is busy, you can't just meet him whenever it pleases you!
Is this your brother?
No, it's my son
Hey, he's calling you inside!
Here I come, sister! Okay, come back later
Let's go

Where will crow go at nights now?
Shut up and come!
Granny, it took only a minute, They just chopped it off
So what if they chopped this tree off?
There's another tree near the temple, right?
They have chopped it already and built a statue
The crow there doesn't lay any eggs...it only shits
First you finish shitting!
Won't you keep quiet?
With these two running after crow eggs...
You know Sarasu? Even she makes fun of me!
Can we afford to buy them chicken eggs everyday?
So what if a crow is black? It's also a bird, right?
And crows are always with us
You're always taking their side!
I don't want to see them climbing any more trees! Or else...
Are you done?
No!
Is she at the ration store?
Yes, she's waiting in the queue
Mom!

Come home, I'll show you
Tell us what it is, mom!
It's a TV! You wanted one, right?

Who was the man of lower caste; Who did not know politics?
Dedicating himself...
The great emperor Sivaji, dedicated himself...

Three hundred rupees?
If your mother finds out, she'll beat you black and blue!
If we save up for a month, we can make that much money, you know?
Wait

Go to the shop and get the things I say
Take it
Do you know how to make it?
Brother, tomatoes for 2 rupees and onions for 2 rupees

No, No, it's capsicum!
Capsicum...Capsicum
Hurry up, brother!
Wait, I'll give you
Take it
Is it ready?
Wait!
Doesn't smell like it...
Don't sniff your food
This is not it, Granny!
It's stringy, like thread!
Only spoilt food gets stringy
It's not pizza if it's not stringy!
You said it'd be sweet?
How will a dosa be sweet?
Dosa? Yuck!
You're trying to fool us! We'll save money and buy it
Come, let's go
So you won't eat rice and stew?
It's pizza that you want?
I'll show you a place You shouldn't tell anyone
Swear on your mom?
Swear on my mom!
Why didn't you tell us sooner?

"Atom bomb is hot tears in to pieces"
"out or in truimph is marked"
"Hey..."
"He wins revels fet'es makes merry"
"Hey..."

"Permeats and is pervasive "
"Guys, do you eat the cover also?"

"In the marble game we are the kings"
"If it is fire crackers we propel like rockets"
"We walk with chest held high like Undertaker "
"We are the swift fighters"
Wait wait
Bro ..have you seen this cell phone?
Can take photos and videos
Other day you said
When your dad comes from jail you would get a cell phone
No we'll not buy cell phone
Let's eat pizza No petty lies
Like the pizza Simbhu ate?
Hey...
He wins revels fet'es makes merry
Permeats and is pervasive

"Permeats and is pervasive"
(Loud speaker blares a song)
Boss, are you in a wineshop?
Great!

Catch hold of the dwarf fellow
"When we amass money would go to AC bar"

- Does your mom know? - Yes she knows
"Twine is dry lost control"
"Kite is cut off touches light house"
Wait wait Where are you going?
- To get Pizza - Pizza?
No more Pizza It is all over
The other day, Simbhu came and-
Simbu...?
Get out of here!
Get out I say
What?
It's nothing, sir
They're slum kids
They've come to window shop; annoying me
I'll handle it You don't bother yourself, sir
Go away!
I said, go!
He said we are slum kids How does he know our house?
By seeing your clothes
Clothes?
Of course! Won't he know if you wear such dirty clothes?
How do you know all this?
Once when they were arranging my marriage...
Seeing my dirty clothes, the girl rejected me
My mother said, any person will be judged only by their clothes
Didn't even feed the boys well this past month...
...I gave all our money to the lawyer
But now he says, it doesn't even cover his fees till date
Parasite...makes his living out of others' lives
Scoundrel!
Can't we find a new lawyer?
A new lawyer? Then the money we've already spent goes to waste
Each time I go to visit him at the jail, the way he looks at me...
...as if to say 'get me out of here'
But this moron lawyer is not even talking about the bail yet
You are struggling all alone
I am not even able to help in a small way
All I do is eat and sleep
Mother-in-law, stop talking like that
Only because you're here I'm able to leave the kids and go around
What would I do without you?
Granny!
We went to eat pizza today
They didn't let us in
Fruitjuice says, we need good clothes to go in
Is it so, Granny?
It's not that
People in nice clothes will have lot of money
While you won't
That's why they wouldn't have let you in
But we did have the money!
What?
I'll do the dishes
Let it be, I'll wash them Go to sleep
He won't come
Hey, Crow Egg
Sorry for being late!
I've got you something
Tadah!
Wow, pizza!
Take it, I brought it for you
It's for us?
We don't want it We'll buy it on our own
Why won't you take this?
Where did you buy this shirt?
This? City Center in Mylapore
- City Center - Mylapore - Come, let's go
"Black Black Black"
"Did aversion to black colour.."
"make crow change its egg colour?"
"Mere appearance alone Does not make a man"
"It's no more the bod Attire counts"
"Struggle battle it out"
"toil day and night"
"Think mull over and when the desire is expressed"
"Black Black Black"
"Did aversion to black colour"
"make crow change its egg colour?"
"Mere appearance alone Does not mke a man"
"It's no more the bod Attire counts"
Who?
He used to work here
That guy?
He stole coal from the go-down...
...and asked supervisor where he could get more
He got busted
Don't know where he's run away now
But, is his name Fruitjuice?
Ledger shows some other name
Poor Fruitjuice He just tried to help us
Where will he be now?
We can't take coal from there now
We should have taken the pizza from Lokesh
You just over-reacted
Don't you want to eat pizza like Simbhu?
"Charisma and attire complement equally"
"Gosh! Who said this?"
"It's true, our diginity"
"flew off like a kite"
"Till yesterday we ate"
"to quench hunger"
"Who made the shift?"
"Now we have a penchant for taste "
Why no money for 4 days?
Are you picking coal or not?
Nope
We went to play
What? You went to play?
We are visiting your daddy day after tomorrow
Hope you remember
You only listen to him
We're not coming
What's your problem?
Don't speak like that, dear
You should also pitch in to bail your dad out, right?
You shut up
All you can do is eat and sleep
Oye! Want to get bashed up? Watch your tongue
Don't yell too much
We should have eaten the pizza from Lokesh
He gave you his leftovers Want to eat that?
A man of lower caste, who didn't know politics
Who was it?
He was a mighty emperor, Created a mighty empire
The great emperor Shivaji!
Sister was looking for him, right?
Not born of the ruling class...
With no ancestral rights...
The citizen with integrity, who saved his kingdom's, too
Seeing the valiant Shivaji, riding upon his horse...
Everyone acknowledged him to be a wise man!
Sister!
What's this?
He got drunk, sister
Okay, I'm off
Wait!
Now he gets drunk and crashes out on the street, huh?
Take this
Buy yourself something to eat
Do you even know how to pick up customers?
What is this customer service?
Want to get beat up?
Get lost!
Disrespectful oafs!
Brother!
What?
Where's your house?
Why? For what?
Give us twenty bucks...
We'll drop you at your house if you pass out

Daddy!
Pani Puris!

You don't buy us anything we want!
I just bought you new clothes!
But we never asked for them!
Eat all the fruits we've got at home
Wait here, I'll be back
Do you want Pani Puri?
I'll do that!
How did you buy it?
Where are the clothes?
We sold it!
Watch this!
You threw it away!
Hey you, stop there
I already told you not to come, get out
But we're wearing new clothes now
See?
If you wear new clothes, you think you can barge in anywhere?
What a pest!
Go away!
Why so much noise here?
Same kids, sir They keep causing trouble
It's not us This guy is only causing trouble
Your granny has left us!
Where were you?
What's this?
Money for the pyre
This will cover the pyre What about the rest?
This is all I have
How can you say there is no money at a funeral house?
Mom...
This will do!
Tell me the truth
How did you get this money?
We didn't go to play, mom
We went to pick coal
Found lots of coal
I liked these clothes...
...so we went and bought it without telling you
Hey, Crow’s Egg!
To the pizza shop again?
What's up?
They got beaten up at the pizza shop yesterday
Why did they go there?
To eat pizza It was crazy!
Why did they hit them? They didn't have the money?
They had money and even wore new clothes!
Just check this out
- What is it? - Just see it
It's awesome, right?
Kid, let me keep this phone
I'll return it later
It's my dad's cell phone He'd get angry
That man in the train was your dad?
I'll tell your real dad, shoo away
Wish I hadn't showed it to you
Why the cell phone?
I'm gonna make some money with it
It's a bad model Won't fetch you anything
Dumbo! Not the phone Look at this video
The pizza owner would get the chills seeing this
Oh, like that! Superb, Boss
But why would the pizza shop guy be afraid of his own store?
Come closer
He's hit the kids?
He'll pay us money if we show him this
What are you saying? One pays for hitting?
So many people have beat us up No one ever paid us
What's this?
Sir, my area kiddos got beaten up by your man
It'll become a big problem if word gets out especially if it reaches TV channels
You already said that over phone
What do you want now?
What can I say, sir?
We will take what you give us, sir
Okay, I'll let you know
Okay, sir!
Sir, here is my card
Call me when you decide
We'll wait
Leave it there
Bye, sir!
He can speak to a camel face to face!
How tall he is!
He might be tall, But he'll have to bend for us
His ponytail is in our hand now
Why can't we just give it to Kumar and get money?
If we give it to Kumar, he'll give it to Sun TV
He makes a lot of money but gives us only 1000 bucks
But this guy will give us at least 5,000
We shall share 2,500 each What say?
5000 is too much boss Let's ask for 3000 first
You need to think big if you want something!
Karna wanted his interest money, too
Don't delay any further Call him immediately
Me?
I won't talk to those idiots
Idiots?
He was smart enough to copy it on a DVD!
He's not an amateur
And this is not a small issue, either
Not just the supervisor, even our shop is visible in the video
If they find some legal point on human rights...
...or ill-treatment of slum children
Then they will lock and seal all our branches
Not just that! They might even arrest you for hiring a supervisor like him
At least don't grin while saying such things
Whose side are you on?
Mine or theirs?
Definitely yours I won't switch sides
Sir, in North India last year...
...a cop beat up a little girl very badly for stealing sweets from a shop
That became huge issue when someone took a video of that
We should not take this problem so lightly
How about talking to that slum's political leader?
That man is an even bigger fraud!
He will demand a commission even to sneeze
We need to deal with this on our own
If I finish this deal successfully, I will get more than 3 crores
Hello, who's this?
I'm calling from Pizza Spot
Who?
Pizza...Pizza...
Sir? Tell me
This is a small issue You can't expect too much out of this
Sir, why would we ask for more if you give us a fair price?
Here's my final offer
One hundred thousand and no more
Boss, forget 3,000 Ask for 2,000
What is he saying?
Hello?
Okay, sir
For you, we'll adjust
Come hand over the source video and take the money
You're very lucky
He agreed
What's he saying, Boss?
What did you ask?
You asked if they will give 5,000, right?
Do you know how much he is giving now?
How much?
6000
6000!
Boss, you're the man!
You are such a genius!
You've made us a fortune out of some penniless boys
So cool!
I'm proud to be your sidekick
Mom!
He hasn't wet the bed today, mom
He's become a big boy, now!
"There's a shop on roadside Shop has Vada as snack"
"Snack was prepared by the white lady granny"
"Tricky fox sold the Vada to crows Fox filled its coffers"
"Granny who prepared it got only half of it"
"Fox shared the rest"
"Crow who owned the shop was deceived"
Sorry sir, got a bit delayed
Source video?
Give the money and take the video, sir
Here, sir
Thanks!
- Boy...! - Tell me, sir?
Having the talent to make money is useless...
If you can't be alive to spend it
Don't ever come back here
No, sir
My dealings are very straight-forward, sir
Bye, sir
Got any other source?
Nope, gave you all the copies, I promise
'Pizza Spot has a new outlet in Chennai's Saidapet area...'
'An employee of the establishment has brutally assaulted two children...'
'...who had gone to the shop'
'Our news correspondent has captured this incident and brought it to light'
'Let's watch this horrifying incident'
Tell me
Boss, guess what I did!
What did you do?
Thinks he's some big shot, that pizza shop guy
He said he'll only pay 6,000!
Sun TV Kumar put 7,000 hard cash in my hand
It must be on the news already
Boss, the booze is on me
...and the side-dish is on you
I'm waiting!
Why is he still not here?
Hasty moron!
Why did you have to rush in to it?
Why are you hitting me? I've kept your share safe
You've sold it for 7,000, stupid!
Do you know how much he offered?
How much?
How much, boss?
Hundred thousand Now it's all gone
One hundred thousand
Wanted to fool me, huh?
Did they hit you?
They beat me black and blue!
He took me for a dunce!
I'll show him
If we'd paid him off the first time around, this wouldn't have gotten so complicated
But you didn't listen
I enquired at the news channel They've just used it as a filler
No chance! Do you think channels are that stupid?
They've left it at that because the kids' faces aren't seen clearly
Once the boys are identified, they'll blow it up!
Sir, what about your friend in police department?
Tried everything
They're all after money
If we give 10, they want 20, If we give 20, they want 40
Is this the time to be stingy? They might cancel our shop license
Get up!
Stay out for sometime
He's my school friend!
He's tensed about something.
- Coming for interview? - Yes sir
Excuse me, sir
Saw the news this morning
I know the kids' house
I've been there once before
Why did you go there?
Lost my way when I went for a delivery, sir
Do one thing...
Go and bring the kids here
Okay sir
Idiot
You go with him! Issues orders after screwing up...
Bring them here without anyone's knowledge
Okay, sir!
How can we let it go, leader?
They've hit boys from our area!
And when I went to demand justice, they hit me as well
And you went to demand justice...?
Yes, leader
He went all alone to demand justice
They bashed him up!
We've applied turmeric on the wounds on his back. See?
Show him!
Oh Jesus..
Organise our slum women
Okay, leader
We will do a protest
That will be great, leader
Just your presence is enough
I'll inform all the TV stations and make it big!
Greetings, leader See you, brother!
Leader, why let these petty guys organise the protest?
Only if someone creates problems can we politicians solve them!
Shall we talk to MLA?
Let's see what happens
Leader Your phone is ringing
The pizza shop guy?
Yes, leader
Hello, sir!
How are you doing?
You must have heard everything
I did hear!
You could have come to me when the issue was smaller...
The thing is..
Never mind!
We need to stop this immediately
Or they'll dig up everything
We won't allow that
It's all under my control
I'll make sure it ends in your favour
This time, don't pinch money, sir!
Be generous!
'Pizza Spot is a chain of restaurants in Chennai'
'Footage of an employee of this establishment assaulting two children...'
'...Who had come to buy pizza has surfaced recently...'
Following this, this incident has gained...
...a lot of attention in the Internet
'It's is evident that the boys had sufficient money to buy the pizza...'
'...And the reason for the attack was that they were slum dwellers'
Sarasu, there's a protest tomorrow, are you coming?
Only for a little while
They're giving 100 bucks and a free meal
I've got work What's it for?
Someone beat up our slum kids it seems
Our area kids?
They must have done some mischief, surely
You?
When has she ever come for all this?
Carry on. I'll come if I can.
Okay, give me a heads up!
Ignored by society, almost 400 families live in this part of the city
Over 600 children live with parents who have no permanent source of income
On a quest to taste something that has become the symbol of the good life
The boy who was assaulted, also belonged to these slums
Many such hopes and dreams are stuck in these five acres of land
For New Generation Network, this is Gayathri with cameraman Ganapathy
What's up? Naina was looking for you
Why?
Weren’t you beaten up at the pizza shop? It even came on TV, I heard...
What happened?
Hey wait, don't scare them away!
So tiny but they do so much!
I need to call Naina
This one's crazy
You need to stop hanging around with that Naina
Where's my phone?
How did we come on TV?
I don't know
Come back! Take your money and go
They've left?
Need to get them soon. Go faster
Be patient, sir. We can get them
We could have at least come by car
Keep quiet, sir. Stop nagging
Even bikes can't go there
Look... Look... Look...
When did they take a video of us?
- Back already? - Machine broke down..
They gave us the day off
What a surprise!
Not watching TV...?
Mom-
What?
Nothing!
Something seems fishy here...
- Is the water flowing today? - Yeah, it is
I'll do my very best, sir
You're complicating it unnecessarily
It'll only become a problem if others get hold of the kids
Leave it to me, Let me handle it
There you are!
I went to the factory looking for you
You should stand right in front at tomorrow's protest
Me? Why?
Why?
Don't you watch TV?
They've been showing your boys on T.V since morning.
My boys?
You mean, you didn't know about the pizza shop guy hitting your sons?
What! They hit them?
You've got two T.Vs at home. Won't watch it?
The protest is for your boys!
Where are the kids?
They were right here. Now they're gone...
I knew it! It's all their doing.
What are you saying! Whose doing?
You don't worry.
The T.V channels and politicians are on our side
I'll handle this Let's go
- Have you seen my boys? - They went this way
Where are they?
We don't know.
I condemn this act!
Who is responsible?
When will the disparity between rich and poor come to an end?
First of all, this is not about being rich or poor.
Our friend is getting emotional
We need to really think about this issue The boys didn't go there without money
Just a minute, sir. Let's watch the footage once before continuing the debate
Tell us, sir?
Watching this makes my blood boil!
I'm reminded of Poet Bharathiyar's lines "My heart can't take this"
Why call them "slum kids"? Why not consider them as our own?
Rather than trying to sensationalise this...
I think it's our responsibility to handle the effects of globalisation well.
Like I said before, this is not about rich- -One minute, sir.
Viewers, this heated debate will continue after a short break.
I'm calling from New Generation T.V channel, sir.
We wanted to interview Mr. Sivachidhambaram.
Have you seen my boys?
They came here.
But before I could say anything they ran away.
How heartless they must be to hit such small boys!
Was it that bad?
Why? Didn't you know?
Leader asked you to come
I know everything.
About your kids.. husband.
I have spoken to the lawyer.
Let them be!
I'll take care of everything.
You don't worry yourself.
They're just kids!
They must be roaming somewhere here
They will be back
Something to drink? Tea, coffee?
No, thanks.
Don't want?
No.
I've looked everywhere. Everyone is saying something or the other.
Listen up!
I won't let go of the men who made you are your boys cry!
But- as soon as you find your sons, bring them to me.
Pizza selling oaf...
You don't deserve laurels.
Down with the... pizza owner!
Hey, Bush-head!
You've got the spelling wrong.
Here's the deal- you gather some 10 women.
You should wreak such havoc that they should shut the pizza shop.
We'll totally do that! Relax
We're all with you.
I've borrowed this money for interest!
We haven't even started the protest, and the police are already here?
Wait...
Greetings, sir.
You've come at the right time, sir
You're their mother?
Yes sir, she's the mother of those boys.
This is the Crow Egg's house.
What's the kids' names anyway?
Where are the boys?
I don't know, sir.
They've been missing since yesterday.
It's my fault, really.
Should have bought them a pizza when they asked for it.
If I find that pizza shop guy...
I'll beat the crap out of him.
That's how you talk around a cop?
Why open a shop near a slum and taunt those without money?
Fine. Where do we look for them now?
How's that?
Have you ever eaten frog fry?
Yuck.
It's yummy!
Peel the skin out...
Add salt and spice, and heat it up!
It's so tasty.
You're bluffing.
Have you ever eaten that?
No...
...just thinking about it now
Those boys who got beat up by pizza guy? Have you seen them?
Don't tell them!
They're here!
Sir, those boys are here.
Hey, stop running!
It's mom!
Where did you go?
We went to eat pizza, right?
Everyone was looking for us, right?
We got scared.
This is my friend Fruitjuice.
Come, let's go.
It's okay, sir We'll manage on our own
There are some formalities Come!
We've found the kids, sir.
They're with me.
Okay, sir!
Hey, Simbhu has come again, I think!
Start the music.
It's so cold in here, right?
Come inside, mom.
Are you well?
We should have opened the shop at an auspicious time...
Bring that pizza.
We don't have money.
That's okay, son.
Whenever you come here, pizzas are free for you.
Eat well.
Eat it.
You could feed them.
The lungi won't be in frame, right?
It's only till my chest?
That will won't come, sir.
This is not a news.
It's an achievement!
It's a victory for my people.
I already said I'm not dating anybody.
This is not about that, sir.
The boys getting hit at the pizza shop...
They say it happened because you opened the shop?
I knew this was coming Happy to clarify
In my opinion, that's not true. But if you feel that way, I'm very sorry.
I apologise for the incident.
These are gimmicks to save your business, right?
Definitely not.
I don't discriminate between rich or poor.
In fact, I opened this branch here just to cater to all classes.
45 rupees.
We've even introduced a pizza for 45 rupees.
What about your employee who hit the boys?
I have fired him.
Are you sure it's this house?
This is it, I'm pretty sure.
It's empty.
They must have gone out Have a seat
Let's wait here.
Why are you worrying sir?
Putting a temporary pause to an issue that's growing day by day...
Mr.Siva Chidambaram, proprietor of the Pizza Spot Chains..
...he has cleverly retained his status as a humanitarian
Gayathiri for New Generation News, with cameraman Ganapathy.
You said there's some protest. There is nothing happening?
Yeah! Where's our money?
Why aren't you saying anything?
Boss...
Another goof up?
Do you like pizza?
Yuck. No!
It tastes bad, right?
So sticky!
Granny's dosa was a lot better, right ?
How do we finish this?
