So cute! It's a boy!

My Son!

God, help her!

Holy Mother, help her deliver

the baby.

Master, please come and see the baby.

It's a girl.

By The Mother's grace, baby and

mother, both are fine. Be happy.

God be always with you!

Sans the moustache,

she resembles you, Pandian.

Take a look at your daughter, lady.

She's so beautiful!

So what if it took six years,

you've got a gem.

Does my moustache

hurt you, darling?

The earth, life and its lifecycle...

what makes them unique...

is the feeling of love

that coexists.

Love exists between the mother

and the son, among siblings...

in romance and pretense.

No matter what...

but the love between a young boy

and a young girl...

is the most exciting

and passionate of all.

Born in the city of Calcutta

in East India...

is Siva.

In the South of India, near Kuttalam,

village Paimoli, was born...

You are christened Jennifer.

God has decided to unite them.

Nature will give in to them.

Siva! My baby-

Between them there may be differences

in language, religion and lifestyle...

but the two of them are going

to share a common feeling.

And that is "love".

Now babies,

they will be lovers tomorrow.

This love story is based

on these two babies.

How they unite,

is the story.

They will be united.

But how...?

When will these two hearts, distanced

by thousands of miles, unite?

When will these two lives

enjoy their first kiss?

Look there. Not only in Calcutta,

you'll find temples in Madras too.

Look how different Madras

is from our village!

And why not?

- You'll find everything here.

Show me stuff from Thirukonam.

That green one, please.

It'll suit your niece.

She's getting naughty.

Mummy...

Mummy...

- Yes?

Out of the ten scouts selected,

I came first.

Really? Smart girl. Told your daddy?

- Where's Daddy?

In the backyard.

Daddy!

- Come, my dear.

I came first out of

the ten scout candidates, Daddy.

Is it?

Smart girl!

- Pandian's daughter, after all.

Schools all over are going

on an excursion. To... Banglore.

What? To Banglore?

- Yes.

What rot!

- I'll go.

I'll break your legs!

You're my only daughter!

Who stopped you after me?

- You dare talk back? No Banglore!

Get lost!

Banglore, my foot!

Remember to have your Bournvita.

- Call as soon as you reach Banglore.

All right, Mummy. Sure Daddy.

- Don't mix up Tamil and Bengali.

You must come out as the best scout.

- Here'sthe torch, just in case.

How many schools are participating?

- 100 schools from all over India.

It's a big meet, you know.

- I got it, sir.

Oh yes, it's December. It'll be cold.

I've packed your woollens.

Make sure you wear them.

- Arvind! You've spoilt your wife.

Doesn't she know, Bangalore winters

need more than woollens?

I'm going to hit you!

Get him!

Cigarettes and whisky!

Let me give you some!

Where's Selvi?

- Asleep.

She had her dinner so early?

- She didn't eat, just went to bed.

Didn't eat? Why not?

Why not?

- Why ask me? She's angry.

You refused to send her to Banglore.

- Why didn't you force her?

Would she have given in?

- Nonsense! Get lost!

My child has gone hungry,

and you feed me?

My dear...

Selvi...

- What is it?

Come for dinner.

- I don't want any.

Have I ever eaten without you? When

I see you eat, it makes me happy.

Are you bothered about my happiness?

Why should I care for yours?

You want to go to Banglore, isn't it?

So, go on.

Now why do you cry? Haven't I agreed?

- You said it with a grudge.

You aren't happy.

Here, I'm saying it with a smile.

You can go.

Swear by me.

I swear by you.

Let's have dinner.

My darling!

My baby's eyes have

turned red crying.

Stubborn girl! Adamant enough

to make me agree.

Not here yet!

- Who? Susa?

I'm talking about my girl Selvi.

- She is with Susa.

Worried, are you? How childish!

- Mind your own business!

Where's Selvi?

- She hasn't arrived as yet.

Ass! She said she'd be arriving today

by train. Did you look properly?

I did. But she didn't come.

- Must've missed her in the crowd.

Crowd? You call that shed a railway

station? It's an ideal spot...

for trains to stop for water. I tried

my best, but I didn't find her.

No. She said she'd be coming today.

Hey! My daughter's here!

"The darkening clouds"

"The thundering lightning"

"And the blowing winds"

"Takes my heart away"

"The clouds, the lightning

and the blowing winds!"

"Every mole on my body

oozes out a stream of water"

"Let the rains fall as long as I wish"

"Let my soul take

the form of a rainbow"

"Oh Rain, pour on me"

"My heart is where you reside"

"Oh Moon, scatter your light on me"

"Bathe with me, it's fun"

"Come and purge my body"

"Oh Doves, come to me with flowers"

"Let me shield you from the cold

Let me hide you in my tresses"

"Like the winds, I have no wings"

"Like the winds,

no one can arrest me"

"I am young, and

my beauty enhances day by day"

"I'm all of twenty one,

and I have a whole life ahead"

"Oh Dream, fill up my eyes"

"Give me wings to fly.

And you will find shelter in me"

"Oh Mynah, get some kohl for me"

"Spread the light

of my beautiful eyes"

"Fly away with my beauty,

scatter it far and wide"

"The moonlight isn't enough

for the earth"

"So I stand,

my rays lighting it up"

"Dew drops I collect from the flowers

to bathe in the morning"

"And the morning rays of the sun

I dress up with"

"Let the rains fall
