A family attached gangster

A great devotee

His only weakness...

Soft porn!

A movie a day keeps him awake

A hardcore film buff

After them the next

alarming person is Palani

Petty-shop Palani

The public is scared to

go even near his shop

Bores the entire crowd to death

with his most annoying stories

Mastered the art of killing

through story-telling

Been in this area since Sethu's birth

A one-stop-shop for Sethu's history

Some confidence and a whole lot

of patience can crack this weapon

Sethu is very dangerous

I can't get close to him directly

He is like a lion

Nearing him will kill us

We have got 3 monkeys to near him

Rasu

- What do you want to eat?

- Get me some eggs

Senthil

Boys, do check

if they'll play all the scenes

Don't waste money

Palani

He shouldn't know we are

here to make a film on him

If he gets to know...

We are dead

You took all these days to find that?

I told you that on Day-1

It's takes a lot of work and

effort to write Sethu's script

My only support in this

dangerous mission is...

The future superstar of Tamil movies,

our movie's second hero 'Oorni'

Use this trump card always

Let's see how you keep up

- They are calling you, bro

- Wait, I'll be back

There are 3 weapons that

I can use for my mission

Rasu...Senthil...Palani

So how did Sethu became the Sethu?

That's the question

Sethu...I'm waiting!

See in that top rack

I'll take this

Hello, come on...why

do you snatch all sarees that I choose?

Mind your words

I'll cut your tongue

I've come to take sarees of my choice

Not to snatch the ones

chosen by some fool

Dullard

Mind your tongue

I'll show you who I am

How dare you call me like that

Please be quiet

Why do you quarrel unnecessarily?

- Please don't quarrel

- Mind your business

- Excuse me, your bag is open

- Thanks

I remember seeing you somewhere

Me...I am a film director

You should've seen me in TV shows

Oh...Ok

We came first...you've to

give that saree to us

I saw it first

There are 2 sarees missing

Are you ladies creating a scene

and ransacking our store?

What, do we look like

petty thieves to you?

Didn't I tell you then

let us go for another shop?

But you didn't listen

Let's go

For a month's interest,

he'll scold for 3 months

Dude, someone has stolen 2 sarees

Very well, this is what happens

to those who cheat me

This happens frequently?

They steal from here and sell it

at installments at a lower rate

All those ladies are partners-in-crime

Perfect planning and execution

That's their profession

We should show this as

a scene in our movie

Hello Ramesh bro,

Seems to be very busy nowadays

Came for shopping with my friend

Do you want it?
