Paradise (2024)

[bunniefuu]

Lanka is an ancient land

and one that has many facets.

Not least, a historical dimension,

as is evident

in the monumental writing

of the sage Valmiki

in his epic Ramayana,

which has much to do with this island.

Its magnificent spaces and places.

There are many places

of interest in Sri Lanka

that are associated with this legend.

It is also said that there are

fifty sites in Lanka,

scattered over the length

and breadth of the island,

that are associated

with the Ramayana.

The Rama...

Hello!

Yeah, this is Kesav.

Okay.

Okay.

Thank you for letting me know.

Looks like we'll find out if our hard work

for this past year is going to pay off.

Mr. Andrew.

When will we reach the first stop?

In a few moments, sir.

This is known to be the place where

the mighty King Ravana imprisoned Sita

after kidnapping her from India.

King Ravana used to bathe here.

So, that is why

this is called Ravana Ella.

Hello, Mom.

- Have you reached, Ammu?

- Reached. Reached.

I've been seeing all kinds of reports

of what's happening there.

No trouble at all.

I am safe, Mom.

See, it looks beautiful.

Isn't it?

I'll call you back, Mom.

Okay.

Bye.

Hold me.

This is the place where

King Ravana lived and

where he was also buried.

Many believe that

he didn't die, but

he's in a slumber.

And one day, he will wake up

and save Sri Lanka.

According to the Ramayana,

Prince Rama conquered Sri Lanka,

k*lled Ravana and saved Sita.

One second.

Hello!

Yeah, speaking.

Okay.

Okay.

Okay, thank you.

Thank you so much for

delivering the news!

Yeah.

Of course, we can have

the Zoom meeting.

Okay, bye.

- Got it!

- Got it?

Got it!

Yeah.

- sh*t!

- Yes!

- That's amazing!

- Netflix accepted our finance pitch.

- Yeah.

- Oh my God.

They are going to fund nine episodes

of the Indian version of Squid Game.

- Oh, wow.

- Yeah.

- You know what this means?

- What?

Remember when I told you that

we'd be filthy rich someday?

- Congrats.

- I know.

Thank you!

Hey! What will you do

if Ravana wakes up

from his slumber and

comes to kidnap me?

If that happens, the Rama in me

will wake up,

and I'll have to take him to battle.

Fantastic news, Kesav.

Now the deal is closed.

Throw a party today, okay?

Okay, Vishal, since you insist,

I'll party today!

You know, one of the reasons

I wanted to take this trip

is because I was really nervous.

Really?

- Yeah.

- Why?

I thought it was going

to be bad news again,

and I couldn't have faced that.

Oh.

This way, if I'm on

international roaming,

I can hear the news

and just vanish.

Really, man.

This was actually our last chance.

Yeah, man.

But you are throwing a party, right?

Definitely, definitely.

We'll party once I'm back.

I'm not letting you

go without a treat! Understood?

Let me get back first!

So, should we give the good news

to the team?

No, no, don't inform everyone.

- We'll announce it properly.

- We'll give them a shock!

Yeah, yeah.

We'll shock everyone.

We should inform the core team at least.

Yeah, you can tell the core team.

Pooja will start dancing

after hearing the news.

Oh, man,

she's too cute.

Where have you both reached?

I don't know. We

- Have reached somewhere.

- Don't forget that.

Let's see... We'll party once I'm back.

Will you be available today?

Yes, I'll be available.

Can you handle everything?

Yeah, of course.

I can handle it.

Let's get started first.

Do we need to prepare anything for today?

No, nothing for today.

Let's start tomorrow.

- Just celebrate today.

- You too!

Yes, I will.

The entire team would be happy

hearing the news.

- But don't tell everyone.

- No. No.

- Just our

- Core team.

Yeah, you can tell anyone

from the core team. No problem.

- Just don't tell the others.

- Alright. What about the meeting?

And let me know, I'll be available.

Just text me.

Sure, when do you want to have

the team meeting?

I can't hear you clearly.

When do you want to have the team meeting?

Oh, yes.

- Yes, you decide and let me know.

- You'll have network?

- Oh, yes. Yes, I'll get it somewhere.

- Okay.

- Very good

- Yes.

Kesav, you take care.

Okay, yeah. Bye.

Why did they only

let us go, Mr. Andrew?

Because you're tourists, madam.

They have stopped there, demanding gas.

Oh. Is it?

Oh, no!

Mr. Andrew, now might be a good time for

Ravana to wake up from his slumber

and save Lanka.

Right?

Buy guava for just ten rupees!

Buy guava for just ten rupees!

Buy guava for just ten rupees!

Buy guava for just ten rupees, please!

- Guava fruit!

- Guava fruit!

Mr. Andrew, please stop.

Careful!

Sour guava fruit.

What is this?

- Sour Guava.

- Sour Guava.

- Guava.

- Yes.

- Sour Guava?

- Yes.

How much?

One branch is ten rupees.

- Ten rupees?

- Yes!

- I'll give one for five rupees.

- Oh!

- Show it to me.

- Buy it from me.

Buy it from me, please.

Sour Guava. Sour Guava.

Shree.

- My name is Shree, madam.

- Oh.

Oh my God.

Oh, wow.

Like it?

Love it.

So green, right?

Yeah.

They must have venison here, right?

Right, Mr. Andrew?

They have venison here?

Do you have venison?

I didn't know if they ate meat,

so I didn't prepare any.

Sir, he says that he didn't know

that you eat meat,

so he didn't look for any.

Okay.

But if we go to the jungle at this time,

we will be able to hunt.

He says if we go at this time,

we will be able to hunt.

Then, let's go.

It will be an adventure.

Is hunting allowed here?

It's not allowed, madam,

but it happens.

Come on, we won't get a

chance like this, let's go.

Let's go.

Oh.

Oh, God.

Can I have a look?

The g*n is loaded, madam.

Be careful.

Careful.

Give it back to him.

Ammu.

Okay.

Yeah.

Oh, sh*t.

There, there.

No!

Where?

Damn it.

It's too beautiful to be k*lled.

What did you do?

Gone?

Oh, that's romantic.

Power cut, madam.

Okay, why don't you take a seat?

Thank you.

Look at that.

Okay.

Here we go.

Here we go.

Here.

Look at us, champagne and all.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Wait, wait.

Thank you for spending five years

of your life with me.

No.

To us.

To us.

Hunting, madam.

Excuse me, madam.

- Excuse me, sir.

- Yeah.

The power is back.

Tonight, I have a meeting with

the US content holder.

Oh.

After that, everything will be cleared.

From tomorrow,

I will get things moving from here.

Good.

Good times.

Good times.

Yeah, I'll see you online in two minutes.

Ammu.

You know, this might be a good time

to get back to writing

The novel you started years ago.

Please don't waste your time on blogging.

Yeah, my team is actually ready to start

the pre-production work from tomorrow.

Oh, that's great.

Yeah, you can be assured we'll have

it ready for release before the deadline.

Are you sure?

Yes.

Looks like the meeting went well.

Yeah.

Looks like the struggling phase is done.

Now we can enjoy life.

Haven't you been enjoying life?

No, what I meant is

Now we can start thinking about

raising a family.

You said five years.

I did?

You promised.

Who is that?

Somebody who is desperately trying to

impress you, I guess.

- Why would someone try to impress me?

- Yeah

I don't know.

When I'm here, no one can do that.

Thieves!

Shree!

Shree!

Shree!

Shree!

Shree!

Shree!

Thieves!

- Thieves!

- Where?

Thieves!

- Sir.

- That way, they went out the window.

My iPad and our phones have been stolen.

Your laptop too.

Mr. Andrew, we got robbed.

Where were you?

Oh my God.

I was sleeping in the

driver's quarters, sir.

Sir, did you close the window

when you went to bed?

Yes, of course,

we closed the window, Mr. Andrew.

I saw you near the window

in the evening.

- Did you close the window properly?

- Yes.

Yeah, if we didn't close it,

it would have been really

cold at night, right?

I wonder if this is an inside job.

Sir.

If you want, we can call the police.

Iqbal, sir.

Our cook.

Were you the one who was

singing last night?

Yes, madam.

Let's call the police.

Isn't there anyone to

answer the phone?

Get out, dog.

Sergeant Bandara.

Listen.

During this time, when we can't

find even a drop of diesel,

are you asking me to

climb the mountain

and travel five km to look for a lost

laptop and phones?

Tourists?

Right,

then, tell them to come to the police

and file a report.

Guava for just ten rupees.

Guava for just ten rupees.

Guava for just ten rupees.

Guava for just ten rupees.

Haven't there been several

robberies at the bungalow?

He's saying, "Not in their time."

Is there anyone else working

at the bungalow?

Sometimes a person comes

for the gardening work.

He says that there is no point in coming.

Anyway, they don't have diesel to come.

If you suspect anyone, please tell them,

and they will start the investigation.

What did he say?

He says,

"While the country is burning,

you're adding fuel to the fire."

Okay, you tell him, Mr. Andrew,

that if he doesn't find my

stolen things today,

I will personally call

the Indian High Commissioner.

Okay?

And I'll make sure

that he calls his bosses.

Tell him.

Sir says, if he doesn't get

his stolen things today,

he will call the Indian High Commission...

I understood.

Mr. Andrew,

do you think these guys will be

able to catch the thieves?

Only they can, sir.

What a waste of time.

Are you sure you closed

the window properly?

I opened it, then I closed it.

Why did you open the window?

How are you sure you closed

the window?

If you hadn't opened it,

then we wouldn't have been stranded here.

Now this is my fault?

You know very well how much

I have struggled to get this project.

Have to start

the pre-production work today.

Without my iPad and phone

I can't do any work.

I also lost my phone and laptop.

Yeah, but

Both of our lives depend

on this project, right?

And I can't do anything

without my stuff.

IF YOU CAN'T FEED THEM

IF YOU CAN'T PROVIDE THEM ELECTRICITY

THE GOVERNMENGO HOME

What does that say, Mr. Andrew?

If you cannot provide us food

and electricity

The government

Please go home.

Hey, put your hands down.

I'm not sure.

I'm sure.

How can you be sure?

It was dark, and their faces

were covered.

I'm sure.

Sure. Yes.

Right.

Get inside.

Go.

Now tell me.

Now tell me.

Where are the stolen goods?

Tell me.

Please don't hit.

I don't know, sir.

Why are you hitting me, sir?

Don't hit, sir.

Please don't hit, sir.

- Please don't hit, sir.

- Tell me.

- Please don't hit, sir.

- Come on.

Oh, no! Don't hit me, sir.

Tell me.

Where did you hide it?

Tell me.

- Tell me, where did you hide it?

- I didn't do anything, sir.

Tell me.

Don't hit me, sir.

- Don't hit me.

- Oh, no!

I didn't do anything, sir.

Hey, get up!

Stand still.

- Tell me.

- I didn't do anything, sir.

You

- How dare you...

- Sir, don't hit me.

Dissanayake, bring me that.

Oh, no! Don't hit!

Don't hit me, sir.

Please, don't hit us, sir.

Are you sure it's them, Kesav?

Speak out!

Yeah.

Come on, tell.

I didn't take anything, sir.

I didn't take anything, sir.

- Come on, tell me.

- I didn't take anything, sir.

Sir

Wake him up.

Get some water.

Bring some water.

Mr. Andrew, ask him, how are we going

to get our things back?

Sir is asking, how can he get

his things back?

He says that now the other two will

tell the truth without any problem.

He asked you to go ahead with your work,

and when you return,

he will hand over the goods.

Mr. Andrew, from where can I buy a phone?

Sir, it's nearly 35 Km

from here to the town.

At the moment, we have diesel

Doesn't matter, I have to go.

Come.

When they said we were tourists,

he must have thought that we were white.

Did you notice he got scared

when he saw us again?

Only when I threatened him

did he find the thieves.

He'd better find our stuff today itself.

You heard what he said, right?

That we're adding fuel to the fire.

Sir, he says

That they want us to take the thief

to the hospital.

They have run out of diesel.

Let's take him to the hospital.

Shall we also check on him?

No need.

It's not necessary.

Mr. Andrew, please come with me.

Oh, my child.

Bring my child back.

Bring my child back.

My dear child!

I don't know what made me choose this

sh*thole for our anniversary.

Didn't you say it would be so much cheaper

to come right now?

That's a fact.

These guys are dying for some dollars.

We're giving them foreign exchange.

We're doing them a favor

by being here.

Today, after many days,

the Pohoddhara Fuel Station

received fuel to resume its operations.

This caused an agitation

among the people

who were gathered

in long queues...

Ammu, shall I buy one for you?

No, I'll use yours.

Thank you for the SIM card, Mr. Andrew.

I can't remember my office number.

Yeah, try,

0220091022

It's working.

Yes, Kesav here.

Yes, I know.

There was a robbery at

our bungalow last night.

Yes.

They stole my iPad and mobile.

Even Ammu's.

Okay, tell me something. I sent a

mail this morning. Any update on it?

Okay, okay. Do one thing.

Make a draft and send it to me.

I'll verify and send it back.

Who's going to do that? Vishal?

Okay, you finish it and call me.

Wait, I'll call you back.

Just a second.

- The thief said he did it.

- What?

The thief.

He said he did it.

Okay.

I told you,

my forty years experience in police.

Now,

I will have to produce them

to the magistrate.

- Okay.

- So that I can keep them under my custody.

What about my stuff?

When will I get my iPad and phone?

- Tomorrow, sir.

- You're sure?

- Sure. Sure.

- My iPad and phone.

- Her laptop and phone.

- Yes, sir.

Tomorrow, for sure.

- Okay.

- Now,

the problem is solved.

Okay.

I'll see you tomorrow then.

Okay, sir.

Let's go.

Thanks, madam.

Don't k*ll animals, Shree.

No, madam.

I'm a vegetarian.

People ask for meat,

and I give it to them.

I don't eat.

Thank you, Iqbal.

Thank you, madam.

- I worked in Oman.

- Oh.

After COVID, I lost my job.

I know a little bit of Malayalam.

One of our boys has been beaten

and hospitalized.

Two of them are still in custody.

We cannot allow this.

Is this how innocent people are treated?

Do innocent people need

to be beaten and die like this?

This cannot be allowed!

Until they're released,

we will not stop this protest.

Our protest will continue.

Hey.

The thief admitted that he did it.

But these two buggers are not telling me

where they have hidden the stolen goods.

What?

The thief admits that he did it.

But the other two, they did not say

where the stolen goods are.

- So, you don't have my stuff?

- No, at the moment I don't have the stuff.

You said I can come

get it today morning.

I'll get it for you.

When will you get it for me?

I don't have time.

Sir, please give me a little more time.

I don't have time to give,

Sergeant Bandara, I really don't.

Sir, listen to me.

Now these union workers,

they're demanding and troubling

me to release them.

They're thieves, and I'm not

going to release them.

- Otherwise, you won't get your stuff.

- Okay.

Now listen to this.

- We're on our way to the airport.

- Yes.

Okay, we're leaving Sri Lanka,

we have to get our things now and go.

- That's all.

- Please,

give me a little more time,

I'm telling you.

I gave you time.

Yesterday, you asked for time,

and I gave you time. Right?

Yesterday you said to come today

morning, and I came.

Where are my things now?

I showed you the signature,

and they're admitting

Okay. I don't care about the signature.

Okay, I just want my things.

I don't care about the signature,

I don't care about these people.

- I'll get it for you somehow.

- Get it.

You get the things,

I'm waiting here.

Ammu, sit down.

We're both waiting here,

you get the things.

Get it. I'm not leaving

here without my stuff.

Can you please explain this to him?

The country is on fire.

These people are angry.

If their anger turns into violence

against these people, what will happen?

Please explain it to them.

What did he say?

He says

That we're not safe here, sir.

And it's true, sir.

Yes, sir.

I'll give you protection.

Please, it's not safe.

Go get the g*n.

That one.

Bring that g*n.

Okay, I'll leave now.

You tell me when you will

give me my things.

Give me a time.

I need time till

tomorrow evening.

Okay.

- I will call you, okay?

- Okay.

And Sergeant Bandara,

if you don't get me my things,

I will call people I know.

Okay?

Come, Mr. Andrew, let's go.

Release them!

Release them!

Release them!

Release them!

Release them!

Release them!

Stop police atrocities!

Stop police atrocities!

Stop police atrocities!

Stop police atrocities!

Stop police atrocities!

Stop police atrocities!

I won't move from this damn place

until we get our things, Ammu.

Okay. Okay.

Eat.

What a shame!

What a hassle for sir and madam!

Okay. Okay.

Not found, sir.

I asked him to hurry up.

Yeah, thank you, Shree.

Mr. Andrew, I saw the Sambar Deer.

He's alive!

It was magnificent, Mr. Andrew.

It was almost like he's telling me

he's alive.

He was so beautiful.

Can I also show something

to you, madam?

Yeah, of course.

Come.

Madam, look.

This is the place where Ravana

landed his chariot

with the kidnapped Sita.

No wonder people

believe that, Mr. Andrew.

This rock deserves a legend.

How can you be so happy, Ammu?

Do you want me to be unhappy?

No, what I'm asking is

While we're stuck here,

how can you be so happy?

Your fan has started the concert.

He's like begging for your attention.

Sorry, sir, it was my request.

No, no.

That's okay, I

I just came to

Tell you, Mr. Andrew, that

While we're waiting

for the stolen goods to come,

we might as well continue

the Ramayana tour.

- Can we do that?

- Okay, sir.

Okay.

What is that?

- Cheap local arrack, sir.

- Show me.

Very strong, sir.

I'd like to try.

- Get a glass.

- Glass

- No, no.

- Sir

No chaser.

I drink single malt without a chaser.

Always neat.

Cheers.

Good.

Good.

Very good.

Here.

Sir.

You continue your song.

Okay.

Good night.

- Good night, sir.

- Good night, sir.

It hit him.

- Hey, don't.

- It really got to him.

It hit him.

When she was c*ptive under Ravana,

Sita threw flowers into this brook,

hoping that they would reach Rama.

So, even today, people hope

for the same, madam.

And these are the footsteps

of the Monkey King, Hanuman.

And when Hanuman came to Sri Lanka

searching for Sita,

he saw Sita here.

And

Hanuman gave Rama's ring to Sita

to keep her hopes alive.

Because,

keeping her c*ptive for so many

days in the dark,

King Ravana brought Sita here,

and this is the place where

Sita saw the sunlight first.

And

In this place

Sita prayed to be saved.

That's how Hanuman saw Sita.

Mr. Andrew,

do you think that when women

face problems, they cry and

hope for a man to rescue them?

No, madam, I don't think so.

But maybe during that time,

women behaved like that.

Do you know, in the Jain Ramayana,

Sita fought Ravana face to face,

and Rama was her charioteer.

Ravana died in the hands of Sita.

How could that be, madam?

See the story you're saying,

about Sita, it's

According to the Valmiki version.

But there are three hundred versions

of the Ramayana.

Don't look so shocked, Mr. Andrew.

Remember, you said that

Ravana is in a slumber

and he will wake up one day?

That was not written by Valmiki.

That was written by Mr. Andrew.

Madam, there's an

emergency in ward two.

What happened?

Doctor, power cut.

Why hasn't the generator started yet?

Give me the torch.

The trial by fire took place

here for the first time.

Rama k*lled Ravana.

But, he couldn't take Sita back.

Because she was

with another man.

Sita cried.

Begged to do the trial by fire.

She asked them to make a fire here.

They prepared it.

Sita jumped into it.

She was

So pure.

The Fire God appeared and saved her.

And put her in Rama's hand.

It happened here.

You can pay me in dollars,

Indian rupees or Sri Lankan rupees.

No problem.

Madam,

I would have looked

the same to you.

I'm so sorry, Mr. Andrew.

I shouldn't have laughed.

I mean, this story has been appropriated

by multiple groups, and you know,

interpreted according to their needs.

So, what's the harm if somebody

uses it to make a living, right?

Yes, madam, you're correct.

Well, I'm also doing the same thing.

No, Mr. Andrew,

I really didn't mean you.

Okay, I think we have given

Bandara enough time.

- Let's go and check.

- Okay, sir.

We'll fight! We'll fight!

We'll fight! We'll fight!

Will fight against police atrocities!

Will fight against police atrocities!

We need justice! We need justice!

We need justice! We need justice!

We need justice! We need justice!

We need justice! We need justice!

Punish them! Punish them!

Punish them! Punish them!

Police need to be punished!

Police need to be punished!

We need justice!

We need justice!

We need justice! We need justice!

We need justice! We need justice!

Don't k*ll! Don't k*ll!

Don't k*ll the innocent!

Don't k*ll the innocent!

Don't k*ll! Don't k*ll!

Don't k*ll! Don't k*ll!

Oh, no!

Oh, no!

My dear son!

You left me. You're gone, dear son.

Come on, hurry up!

Hey, come on, throw!

- Burn everything!

- Close the door.

Go check if the doors are closed.

- Please save us!

- Come on!

Please save us!

Please save us!

What is this?

That's Sergeant Bandara.

Sir.

Don't go there, sir.

They will k*ll you.

k*ll who?

k*ll you, me,

madam and everyone else.

They're angry.

The estate boy died.

Oh, no.

We'll go to town and bring

the police battalion.

We will give you full protection, sir.

Mr. Andrew, what do you

think we should do?

I don't see any alternative, sir.

So, Sergeant Bandara, I guess,

now we won't get our stuff back?

Right?

Sir,

we will have to capture

the suspects again and

file a case.

I don't have time for all that.

Sir, I have proof.

Here.

I saved it.

How did the boy die?

It's not our fault, madam.

When they were giving him oxygen,

the power went off.

What?

The generator was not working.

No diesel, sir.

Aren't we responsible for his death?

No, madam.

He is responsible

for your troubles and my troubles.

But this is a human life.

Doesn't it have any value?

Value?

Yes.

Election time,

one vote.

She asked

if the boy's life isn't valuable.

I said, "Yes, during election time,

it's worth one vote."

They made us beg from the world!

They made us beg from the world!

They destroyed our economy!

They destroyed our economy!

They robbed us of our future!

They robbed us of our future!

They stole money and had a good time!

They stole money and had a good time!

While the people are starving!

Kesav!

Kesav!

Yeah?

What are we going to do now?

I think we should get home

as soon as possible.

Even if we stay here, we won't get

our stuff back.

No, not that.

What are you going to do about

this boy's death?

Aren't we also responsible?

How are we responsible for it?

He's dead because you

said he's the thief.

I said what I felt, okay.

I stand by my instincts.

What is this nonsense?

He admitted to the crime.

You saw his signature

on that register.

Sir, that's them.

Hello!

You need police protection.

Sergeant Bandara, you be with them.

Yes, sir.

He assigned me for that, sir.

Let's go.

Yeah.

Maybe the sergeant got his signature when

he wasn't fully in his senses.

I don't know that.

What I do know is that we need this man

for our protection right now.

Please, sir.

No matter how many

police officers arrive,

until justice is served

for my son's death,

I will not allow the body

to be taken away.

For the recent vandalism

of government property,

arson, looting and unlawful assembly,

we kindly request

your cooperation to implement the

law against the culprits of these acts.

We ask you all

to please step out of your houses.

Superb meat, sir.

Makes you strong.

Have you eaten it?

No.

When you come next time,

I will get it for you.

Shree, you have some alcohol left in that

bottle you were drinking from?

Yes, sir.

Half a bottle.

Can you give that to the sergeant?

- I will buy you another one.

- Okay.

Iqbal, make some bites also.

Okay, sir.

Oh, deer.

Aren't you a Tamil, from the estate?

Yes, sir.

But now I live here.

The estate buggers must be getting

a good thrashing by now.

Have a glass.

Boy.

That night, when the robbery happened,

where were you?

In the bungalow.

Where?

Near the kitchen.

Let's go look.

You wait here.

Sorry, sir.

Don't mean to disturb.

I'm investigating the crime.

Muslim?

No matter what,

Muslims know

how to cook meat well.

I'm a meat lover.

Where do you sleep?

Over there!

Do you sleep with the door open

or closed?

Sometimes open,

sometimes closed.

If it's too cold, we close it.

That day, you slept

with it open or closed?

That day?

That day means that day.

The day the robbery happened.

Closed.

That's the reason you

didn't hear anything

when the robbery

was happening, right?

You didn't hear?

No, sir.

You didn't hear?

No, sir.

You didn't hear?

Or you pretended you didn't hear?

Where were you sleeping?

I was sleeping in the driver's quarters.

Sergeant Bandara,

how is your investigation going?

Very good, sir.

Sir.

I want to talk with you.

Alone.

Come.

Sir.

I'm a dog.

A good dog.

I serve my master.

And

You are my master now.

I think your goods are

with these two.

Why do you think that?

That dark person,

he is from the estate.

He's one of them.

Sir.

I want to see the crime scene.

Amritha.

Sergeant Bandara wants

to check something.

This is the window.

No break in marks.

Inside job.

These boys opened the window

for the thieves.

I opened the window.

But you said you closed it.

Yes.

Then, after that,

one of these boys came in

and kept the window open

for the thieves.

I must question them.

Kesav, what is this?

Can't you see this is pointless?

We'll see.

You keep that and ask

your friend to come.

Iqbal.

You opened the window

and tipped off your estate friends.

You helped him.

Before we take you to the police,

tell me where the stolen goods are.

Sir?

Where are the stolen goods?

Madam?

Madam, we didn't steal.

He's a drunk, madam.

What... What did you say?

Kesav, do something.

- I don't know anything.

- Come on, tell me.

Who kept the window open?

Tell the truth.

Tell the truth.

Who kept the window open?

- Tell the truth.

- I don't know, sir.

- Tell the truth.

- We didn't do it!

It was me, I did not

close the window.

Shree!

You took three innocent boys

and blamed them.

And one is dead now.

Now you're going to do

the same thing to me.

I have k*lled many animals.

I will k*ll you and k*ll myself.

I will k*ll you like an animal.

Shree, don't do it!

Madam, give it to me

Attack them!

Come on, go!

Let's attack!

- Throw it!

- Let's attack!

Attack them!

Retreat

Don't give up.

Attack them.

Sergeant Bandara!

Hello.

Sergeant Bandara!

Come! Come!

Come on go!

Move forward

Move forward

Take the stones.

Hey, he picked up the g*n.

He picked up the g*n.

Careful, he has the g*n.

Attack!

Attack him.

See, he's firing at us.

I'll k*ll you.

Hey! Step back.

Step back.

- Don't.

- Throw stones on him.

Lift him. Lift him.

Hey, what happened?

Come on, throw the stones.

We were surrounded

by estate workers

who were throwing stones at us.

There was nothing else I could do

so I picked up my g*n

and fired into the air.

As I was firing, a machete

hit me on my chest,

and I fainted.

STATION MASTER

When I woke up,

everything had already happened.

I was not in the right frame of mind

when this all happened.

When I tried to go outside,

Iqbal came and held me back.

So, I didn't really see

what happened.

I was holding Shree.

By the time we went outside,

it was too late.

By then,

Kesav sir was on the ground.

I was

I

I don't know what happened.

When the mob started approaching,

Kesav sir fired at the crowd.

But they kept running

towards the bungalow.

Madam also got scared and fired a shot.

But unfortunately,

Kesav sir stepped in the way.

It was a terrible accident, sir.

Mr. Andrew?

Do you believe what you said

at the police station?
