I tried to contact them, but no one is picking up the phone.

He was such a well known judge..

Sir. - Please pack the food quickly, okay.

Okay sir.

Was I very late?

No problem!

You are very late.

Let me get the food packet, then just watch how I drive.

No grandpa, my father says you are trying to enjoy in your old age.

Forget your papa.

I have been driving even before he was born.

Since childhood.

You are making fun of me.

What is your programme after dropping us?

Programme! After dropping you both I will enjoy alone.

Excuse me sir, your parcel. Thank you.

Grandfather, why are you driving so slow?

Drive faster, or else the teacher will be angry.

Is that so, I will appease your teacher.

Don't worry about that.

Good morning.

Sorry, sorry for being late.

Our car broke down on the road.

It's alright sir, no problem.

I know you are very punctual.

Okay sir, we should leave. - Okay.

All the best. - Thank you. Good day sir. - Bye. Bye.

And yes, stay away from mountains and waterfalls.

Whenever the police do their duty you arrive there with the camera.

Get lost from here before I raise my hand!

Forget about raising your hand.

You are doing your work and I am doing mine.

And why are you worried if the public is watching your duty.

Remember one thing, I am not one of those police officials..

..who are afraid of the camera.

My name is John Wargis, I am not afraid.

I know on whose orders are you uprooting..

..these people who earn their livelihood after a hard day's work.

And that's what I want to tell the public.

Fredrick. - Yes. - Come on! - Yes sir.

Welcome back to True Vision.

This one acre land of Marine Drive.

Ex M.P Mr. I.K Thomas has taken on leas for 99 years..

Like always, this is his plan with is contractor friend Sachidanand.

And breaking the rule of this complex..

..a multi-storey complex has to be constructed here.

And the truck filled with the materials..

..to construct that building will go through here..

..destroying these poor people.

Even after the police's interference and hooliganism..

..we are bringing to you this report. Bye. Cut it.

The story is not over.

The end part of the story, on the screen..

Come on Fredrick.

Police, go back.

Hello Mr. Vijay.

Bravo. - Thank you.

You are much more than a TV news reader.

I am Menon, a great fan of yours.

Retired judge.. - There is no need for your introduction.

I am a fan of yours too.

What are you saying, thanks!

I have read your articles on human rights, with great detail.

And I have filed them too.

One more thing, I am inviting you now..

..for True Vision's function which is next month.

My pleasure.

What you said right now, is absolutely right.

The BMC has still not given the permission for the building..

..and they are being moved before that.

That's absolutely wrong!

This is not the way to remove them. - Sir, just a minute.

Frederick, get ready.

Sir, will you repeat what you just said for our channel.

Now?

Sir, please.

If I get your expert comments my story will become stronger.

Okay. Thank you. Ready. - Yes. - Rolling. - Yes, sir. - Start.

It is the right of the law to stop business on footpath.

But the law makers change the law.

They compromise with the shopkeepers..

Yes, take this. - Me, first. - Take. Take.
