He is my guy

You got scared?

Were you gonna pee in your pants?

Ganesh you shouldn't have

threatened him a lot

How long it's been since college

Should make a grand appearance, right?

Then why all of a sudden to Madurai?

Hey why are you settling down?

Dude, I am your guest

What plan you have come?

Take bath, let's visit

the temple and then my shop

Let's have lunch at Amma mess and then

you can board the train back home tonight

Oorni, just for a month! Will write

a story about Sethu and I'll leave

They are all cold blooded murderers

We can't go close to them

Let them be

You need to

take risk in life to succeed

Risk?

I am gonna have a kid in 5 months, that

itself makes my mark in the risk factor

Shame on you

So, that's your achievement in life?

That is what most men

achieve in their life

And that is enough for me

Are you even listening?

Leave my bag

I got this only for you!

All right, forget the night train

Leave early tomorrow

Don't you understand

It's for your sake

Sethu and his gang are

extremely dangerous...

...violent people

There are plenty of subjects

untapped in movies

I have a couple of stories

Hear me out

Is it true?

Will I actually look good on-screen?

I'm actually a stage performer

at school! Not sure of big screens

Will I look good?

Second hero?

- Don't mock me dude

- Am serious

Am I a hero material?

You will make me act, right?

Is Sethu that big a deal?

Is he impossible to reach?

Is he such a big-wig?

Superb!

We start our movie work first

thing tomorrow morning

Start it...and kill it

Get on board

- Who is he?

- Friend bro!

Even you're not telling anything bro

Dude, he is Sethu

Don't look at him

In this city,

Sethu is a brand

Happy birthday

To Sethurayan

Brother, greetings

An underworld don,

A political weapon, A Kingmaker

An Establishment by himself

You expect us to not to react?

Sir we didn't start anything

I have just closed down

what he started

Sir we didn't start anything

They murdered my brother last month

It's tit for tat, now its tallied

- Chopped his hand?

- That too in a dreadful way

- Friend bro

- Welcome

- He should have been killed 5 years ago

- How did it happen?

Rasu

Surround him

Kill him

What happened?

Sethu, are you alright?

Sethu's best ally is Rasu

Sethu's school friend,

Now his Right-hand

Been with him since Sethu started

Sethu's prime weapon in field

He will stare at everyone, will

hit anyone who stands up to him

A hardcore alcoholic,

his only weakness

After Rasu, its Senthil

Half of Madurai is deaf

because of his slaps

Dumb but yet a strong weapon

A foodie

Strange for a gangster

A teetotaler who doesn't stare at a girl
