As I'm Suffering From Kadhal s01e06 Episode Script
Suffering From High Expectations
'What's your most favourite song?' There are many.
But I think it should be 'When you say nothing at all.
' We both love that song a lot.
So many nights, we've slow danced to that song, right? "The touch of your hands says you'll catch me" "whenever I fall.
.
- Take this!" "Hey! Take this!" "Hey! Take this!" "Hey! Take this!" "Hey! Take this!" You know the song, right? Sing along.
"The touch of your hands says you'll.
.
" That's not it.
"The touch of your hands says you'll catch me" "whenever I fall.
- Here!" "Hey! Take this!" "Hey! Take this!" "Hey! Take this! - Baby.
" "Baby.
.
" "Baby.
.
" I love this song a lot.
Justin Timberlake.
Awesome.
'This song was sung by Justin Bieber.
' I know this song was sung by Justin Bieber.
I was just saying that Justin Timberlake is awesome.
"Coca Cola is brown in colour.
" "My sister's daughter is brown in colour as well.
" "Baby.
.
" In '500 Days of Summer' there's a beautiful French song.
It goes like this.
I think you don't know French.
Maybe that's the reason you're not able to appreciate it.
Just follow the tune.
Now, I'll sing in Bass tone.
"Hey, I look like an ordinary guy.
If you stare at me" "you'll get petrified.
" "If I start abusing" "you will be better off dead.
" "If I just hit you" "you'll sustain a grave injury.
" "Rowdyism is a different ballgame altogether.
" "I won't speak politely.
" "That's how.
.
Mari is.
.
" Bravo.
.
It's a beautiful song.
"Hey, I look like an ordinary guy.
If you stare at me" "you'll get petrified.
" "Ice creams are plenty and colourful" "and my lover's lips are as sweet as ice cream.
" "Go.
.
- That's how.
.
" "Baby.
.
" "What's your favourite song?" "This is a father's lullaby.
" Wow! "After hearing his daughter speak, he was on cloud nine.
" 'Superb, sir.
' I really love that song.
My ringtone is also that theme track from 'Deiva Thirumagal' film.
'Nice.
.
' 'What do you listen to when you're alone?' There's nothing of that sort.
Nothing in particular.
"My dear foolish heart" "do not desire for a girl.
.
" "Ding.
.
Dong.
.
Ding.
.
Love is an awesome feeling.
" "One damn thing" "it is a never ending suffering.
" 'As I'm Suffering from Love' Good Morning, sir! That temporary headmaster who used to target me and torture me.
I got to know now that he's Divya's father.
At school, we never got to know his name.
We used to call him, 'Sher Khan.
.
' He.
.
Probably, he would have never laughed in his life.
Oh, no, it's Sher Khan.
Good morning, sir! - Good morning, sit down.
He used to carry a cane hidden under his sleeve.
Whenever it's required, you'll get a strong whack on your butt.
At school, no matter whenever or wherever I do something wrong he'll spot me like a satellite and punish me right away.
Look at your hands, long nails.
Why can't you cut your nails, why? Dirty shoes.
Won't you polish your shoes? Can't you answer when a question is being asked? Won't you answer? - Sir.
What do you want me to say? How dare you ask me that! - Sir.
.
Are you a hooligan? Wear that collar button.
Wear that collar button.
.
Sir.
.
I'm wearing it.
.
- Wear it.
.
You're constantly talking in the class.
Will you talk? Will you? Will you speak? - Sir, not me.
It's he who's always talking to me.
Finger on your lips.
Dad, he's just joking.
This is Badri.
Oh, hi, Badri.
I'm Divya's father.
- Hi, sir.
Please come.
Hi, Mom.
Hi, dear.
- You were supposed to be here an hour back.
Why are you both late? Sir.
.
Sorry, sir.
.
The cycle tyre was flat, that's why we were late.
Hey.
What are you blabbering? We left a bit late.
Are you going to make us kneel down for being late? Kneel down? S-Sorry, sir.
Please, sir.
I won't be late again.
I was looking at the clock all the while, that's why.
.
Sit down.
No, it's okay.
- Sit down.
No, it's okay.
- Sit down! What are you doing? - You go and get us coffee also get some snacks and sweets.
.
- Hey.
.
What are you doing? Sher Khan! What? Why are you both whispering to each other? It wasn't me, sir.
She's the one always talking to me.
I didn't do anything, sir.
What happened? Uh? Meera.
Meera, hold on a minute.
I think I know what's happening.
She got jealous.
She couldn't take it that me and that hot counsellor hit it off so well.
Girls fighting for me isn't something new to me.
But.
.
Meera getting jealous was a surprise to me.
Does that mean she still has feelings for me? "My dear foolish heart.
.
" Hello, tell me.
'Hello? Sir, where are you at the moment?' I'm just going to go pick up my daughter from school.
What's it? 'Sir, you gave a bad review for 'Veera Selvan' film, right?' Huh.
- 'That director is damn pissed off.
' 'He called up our office and has been swearing at us.
Sir, everyone has given a bad review for that film, right? 'He's been calling everyone and talking to them, sir.
' 'But he seems to be more pissed with us.
' 'Moreover, he asked for your number.
' Oh, no! For God's sake, don't give it to him.
'Oh, is that so?' What? Did you give it to him? - 'Yes, sir.
' Oh, God! Hey! There's a call waiting, will that be him? 'Sir, that must be him.
' 'You talk to him, I'll hang up.
' Hey! Don't hang up.
.
Stay on the line.
He'll think the line is busy and will hang up.
Let him.
'Hello.
' Hello.
Hello, is this Balakumar? That's me and you? Fucker! Excuse me! What the fuck do you think of yourself? Sir, speak respectfully.
Hey! Do you consider yourself a big shot with just a review page and a website? Do you even realise what we go through to make a film? Sir, everyone had given a bad review for your film, right? Hey, you don't talk about it.
Do you realise what you've done? I had managed to get a producer for my next project.
He called up and read your review to me.
And has asked me to come to his office now.
What should I do if I lose this project because of you? Sir, nothing of that sort will happen.
Sir, look, I just did my duty.
Hey.
.
- Even the general audience felt the same.
- General audience? - It seemed forced.
- Hey! You had converted a drama into a melodrama.
Hey, dick! Sir, don't you swear at me.
I will swear at you bloody dick.
What do you know about melodrama? Hey! I had directed a Chinese new wave film.
Hey! You have no idea about that.
Hey! Have you ever watched a Chinese film? Tell me.
.
Come on.
- I have watched many, sir.
Hey! Fucktard! Name one film from that.
I know where you live, I'm coming there right now.
Sir! Oh, no! Sir, don't come home, my daughter will be there.
Don't do anything like that.
Don't! Oh, your daughter is there too, is it? I'm coming there.
.
Hey! Just name one film that you know of.
.
I'll let you go now.
Come on.
Tell me.
Tell me.
- Sir, that's.
.
Come on.
Tell me.
Tell me.
Tell me before I count to three.
One, two.
.
'Kung Fu Hustle!' Fucker, you're done now! What happened, Meera? You said the counselling session was just for namesake.
.
- Where's it? Why are you getting so serious? - Where's it? Hey, that's my PS3 remote.
Damn! Oh, God! Hammer! Hey.
.
Stop that.
.
Don't do it.
Bloody wretch.
.
Hey! Fuck! You're crazy.
.
Have you gone nuts? Why are you behaving like a mad dog? Hey! That's how I'll behave.
What's your problem now? Huh? Did me flirting with that counsellor make you jealous? Jealous, uh? Don't flatter yourself.
As if you're going to get her.
You were shamelessly gawking at her.
She didn't even care about it.
Hey! Is it pissing you off? Nothing of that sort.
Look at this.
She held me, gave me her number and said, 'Call me.
' She must've thought you're crazy and needed treatment.
Hey! Don't speak as such out of jealousy.
Hey! Your phone's ringing.
Pick up that damn phone.
Hey! You broke my PS3 remote.
.
- Don't you dare touch me! I'll kill you.
Bloody wretch, you're a psycho.
.
Why do you behave like this? Did I ask you to take me to a counselling session? It's you who took me to it, right? Okay, what was the need for that counselling session? Tell that to me first.
Hey, I had my reasons.
What is that reason? Oh, you wouldn't care.
I do care.
Hello! Of course, you wouldn't care.
- Hey.
.
Santhosh! Hello - Hello? Hello.
- Hey, hold on a minute.
.
- Hello? Hello' - Hey, what's it? Hey, buddy.
I'm standing outside Director Gautham Menon's office.
Really? Auditions are going on here.
He asked me how I will look without beard.
I showed him a picture of us.
He saw you and has called you for an audition.
What are you saying? Are you serious? Yes, buddy.
Did Mr.
Gautham himself ask for me? Yes, he was the one who asked you to come.
'I want to see him, ask him to come right away.
' He spoke just like the villains portrayed in his films.
Buddy, this is a great opportunity.
'Pandiya!' 'Hey, Tamil Nadu Police, fucker, come here.
' 'Hey, I'm ACP Anbuselvan, I'm coming there.
Fucker!' 'Hey, Anbuselvan, come here soon.
' 'I feel responsible.
' 'Maya!' 'I'm coming now.
' 'Come on.
.
Encounter specialist, come on.
' Buddy, what's his office address? Hey! Good thing you asked.
It's his office in Thrivanmiyur.
Don't go to that coffee shop thinking he'll be there.
Okay, buddy.
- I'll say it.
Note down the address.
No.
6.
.
Let's do it.
.
- Let's not do it.
Shit! Why did you bring up this topic all of a sudden? Just like that, it came up.
I mean.
.
If you don't think we make out enough, you should tell me.
Hmm.
So then, uh.
.
Are we still sticking by what we agreed upon? Regarding? Not to do it before marriage.
Oh! Umm.
Well.
.
Do you want to? - Not that.
.
I was.
.
I was wondering.
.
Yes, I want to.
Really? Or you're just saying because I'm saying it.
No.
.
I really want to.
And it's natural, right? I mean, everybody does it.
I'm sure Divya and Badri also would've.
.
Yes.
Maybe they would've.
Yes, must have.
And we're getting engaged in a couple of days.
- Hmm.
If you want to I think we should.
What do you mean? Is it for me or for you? Freeze! Fuck! Wow, what a candid shot! Got a perfect one, sir.
Such a candid moment.
Expressions have been captured well.
Do it one more time, please.
No.
.
Not required.
Sir, please.
- No need, sir.
Sir.
- See.
It's been ruined.
Anyway, come, take a seat.
Actually, I've got a few photographs for reference.
We will have a look at it.
It's just for reference, don't think I'm going to replicate.
My ideas are always original, this is just an inspiration.
We require two looks as far as pre-engagement is concerned.
One is traditional, another is modern.
But it should be a candid one.
No staging.
Only then your true emotions and chemistry will reflect aptly.
Exactly like the one, I clicked just now.
Wow, what a moment! That's right.
- Amazing! If you hadn't jumped in, the moment would've extended.
You were the one who ruined it.
Sir.
When someone is in such a beautiful moment my job is to jump in to click and ruin that.
I've been thrashed many times on Marina Beach because of intruding.
And haven't been spared by the dogs either during their mating season.
You're upset that I jumped in.
Look at this one.
See.
It's very nice, right? And that's candid photography.
Then so it's scheduled for early morning tomorrow? Do we have to do it early morning? Definitely, sir.
The lighting will be good, let's not miss it.
So, be ready at 6 a.
m.
sharp.
Else, I will jump in tomorrow like I did today.
So, please be on time.
Bye.
So it's early in the morning tomorrow.
Yes.
- Hmm.
I'll be here at 5 a.
m.
sharp.
Hmm.
Okay.
Okay, then I'll leave.
Uh! Why.
.
Why don't you stay here? Why? - Nothing.
If you stay here tonight we can wake up early tomorrow and get ready, right? But the costumes for the photo-shoot are at my place.
Oh, sorry.
I forgot about that.
Okay.
Then you leave.
And get here early tomorrow.
Okay, bye.
Hey.
.
Dad, take this.
What's it, dear? Hey! Why do you look dull? I had written an essay and submitted it.
My English teacher read that and said that it's not at all good.
And awarded me 3 marks out of 10, Dad.
She also left a remark, 'Very Bad.
' Let it go, dear.
You can write it well the next time.
Let it be.
I really worked hard on it, Dad.
I even gave up my weekend play time for writing this.
I wrote it well.
Why don't you read it and let me know? Look, dear.
When you're sure that you wrote it well you don't have to get upset about it.
.
But why didn't she like it? Look, dear.
Now we can't expect everyone to like everything we do.
Everyone's got a different taste.
We should be contented first.
We should do what we love.
Okay? If others like it, it's great.
If not, we have at least done what we love, right? That happiness is enough.
Okay? - Okay, Dad.
Now, let's see you smile.
Okay! Okay, shall we get ice cream on the way? Okay! Did she mention anything to you? What have they decided? Wait, we will find out leisurely.
They've just come.
Why are you in such a hurry? What do you do, Badri? Sorry, sir! Oh, God, please take that.
He was asking what your profession is.
That I'm a freelancer.
Eat first.
He doesn't know when to ask questions.
No.
- Have food and then tell us.
Okay! What are you doing as a freelancer? I-I'm a freelance designer.
.
Let him eat.
He's incorrigible.
You can answer once you're done.
Dad, Badri is a freelance designer.
I asked him, right? Let him reply to it.
Can't you answer when a question is asked? I freelance as a designer.
But my passion is stand-up comedy.
So, I'm doing that as well.
Stand-up comedy? What's that? Stand-up comedy means telling jokes standing on a stage, sir.
Is it like Crazy Mohan's plays? It's not like that, Mom.
He will be alone on stage telling jokes.
Will he stand alone and crack jokes? Who watches it? Many do.
Chennai is catching up to it.
People even buy tickets to watch.
Sometimes at a cafe or a bar.
I've been performing quite well.
Bar? - At a bar? Are you telling your jokes to drunkards? Oh, God, Dad.
It's not the local ones as you might think.
They're classy pubs.
Sometimes, people come down to just listen to him.
He doesn't have a sense of humour.
Once at his school farewell the students mocked and made a joke about him.
Instead of enjoying it, he beat them up.
He has no sense of humour.
That was in the past.
Nowadays, I get every joke.
I've been watching a lot of comedy on TV.
What genre is your comedy, Badri? Me? I mostly say sarcastic jokes.
Oh! Can you just tell us one? Huh? Joke, uh? Dad, how's it possible now all of a sudden? Why, dear, isn't that his job? He'll tell us now, look, go ahead.
What would you like to hear? Crack a joke about a teacher or a headmaster.
Mocking teachers? - Yes, go ahead.
See now how sportively I will take it.
Tell me, Badri.
Yes, sir! Why are you standing? Sit down and say the joke.
No, sir.
I'm used to standing.
Sit down, Badri! Yes, sir! How does this flavour taste? Who's that? It's Veeraselvan, you fucker! Are you ready? Mr.
Gautham Menon is waiting for you.
I'm ready.
.
- Come, let's go.
Hello, excuse me.
Who are you? Sir, my name is Santhosh, I came for the audition.
Isn't Mr.
Gautham Menon here? Shit.
Excuse me, Mr.
Santhosh.
He won't be here, I take care of the auditions.
I'm the associate director of this movie.
Okay? My name is Clap Dhanapal.
Sir, oh, does that mean, do you clap during the shoot? Bloody nonsense! Idiotic fellow.
Mr.
Santhosh.
Last assistant directors are the ones who clap during shoots.
This name was rewarded by the people of the film industry.
Understood? That is, Clap Dhanapal.
If at all there's a clap scene in the film I'll be the first to get a call.
Because I've 20 years of experience in this industry.
Give respect and take respect, okay? Because I'm the associate director of this movie.
Mind it, no more questions.
Oh, that's great.
But I've been to Mr.
Gautham Menon's office earlier I've not seen you till date.
Even I haven't seen you till now.
Bloody buggers.
I've been trying to join him, but he never takes me in.
Because he doesn't get how experienced I am.
But right now he took me in because the producer asked him to.
Oh, so with no option left.
.
He's talking too much.
Shall we get to the scene? Do it.
Does he not know English? Do it! Okay, sir.
Sir, what are you looking for? I've practiced with a modulation.
.
- Look at that.
just like the tone from Gautham's films.
- Stop it, I say.
Can you just perform now? Okay, sir.
'Do you know what you've done?' 'And how you've done? Do you know it?' 'You've turned my life upside down.
' 'Why did you do it?' 'Tell me, give me a reply.
' Did you realise what you did now? Look at him blink.
You guys have a notion when it comes to Gautham Menon's films, is it? Clap Dhanapal is here to break that notion.
I want commercial crime horror comedy and thriller.
.
All these elements.
One-liners, emotions, I'll mix them up and change his style.
I've been asking him to discuss with me, but he's refusing.
But I'm going to change that in the auditions.
I want you to be energetic, and open your mouth and perform with a lot of emotions.
And then don't speak respectfully with her.
It sounds lame.
Just curse at her.
That's the trend now.
Forgot to mention.
Do you know foul language? But you should use them aptly.
Do you need help? Come on, do it.
Do it.
Do it.
Why, sir? This dialogue is in Gautham Menon's style.
In his films, women are given utmost respect.
He's never disrespectful.
It has been my wish to speak as such for long.
Even he has written it in that way.
This is what women like these days.
Bloody, who said so? Huh? A girl had come for the audition.
She's determined to follow my style of performance.
If modern women like such things, why shouldn't we change ourselves? In fact, she's going to audition now along with you.
She's here for the auditions.
I'll call her now.
Meera.
Come out.
Santhosh is a huge fan of Gautham Menon.
His life's aim was to act in one of his films.
But I'll tell you what.
He can't act for nuts.
But he's going to try forever.
See, I understand how important this is for him.
And that's why I'm going to go there and ruin it for him.
"We caught a glimpse of them and we fell for them.
" "We fell head over heels in love and had a jolly time.
" "We are ignoring the warning signs" "and proceeding.
" "It turned out to be a pretence.
" "The terms of endearment whispered was all a pack of lies.
" "The love we had" "doesn't exist now.

He called up and read your review to me.
And has asked me to come to his office now.
What should I do if I lose this project because of you? Sir, nothing of that sort will happen.
Sir, look, I just did my duty.
Hey.
.
- Even the general audience felt the same.
- General audience? - It seemed forced.
- Hey! You had converted a drama into a melodrama.
Hey, dick! Sir, don't you swear at me.
I will swear at you bloody dick.
What do you know about melodrama? Hey! I had directed a Chinese new wave film.
Hey! You have no idea about that.
Hey! Have you ever watched a Chinese film? Tell me.
.
Come on.
- I have watched many, sir.
Hey! Fucktard! Name one film from that.
I know where you live, I'm coming there right now.
Sir! Oh, no! Sir, don't come home, my daughter will be there.
Don't do anything like that.
Don't! Oh, your daughter is there too, is it? I'm coming there.
.
Hey! Just name one film that you know of.
.
I'll let you go now.
Come on.
Tell me.
Tell me.
- Sir, that's.
.
Come on.
Tell me.
Tell me.
Tell me before I count to three.
One, two.
.
'Kung Fu Hustle!' Fucker, you're done now! What happened, Meera? You said the counselling session was just for namesake.
.
- Where's it? Why are you getting so serious? - Where's it? Hey, that's my PS3 remote.
Damn! Oh, God! Hammer! Hey.
.
Stop that.
.
Don't do it.
Bloody wretch.
.
Hey! Fuck! You're crazy.
.
Have you gone nuts? Why are you behaving like a mad dog? Hey! That's how I'll behave.
What's your problem now? Huh? Did me flirting with that counsellor make you jealous? Jealous, uh? Don't flatter yourself.
As if you're going to get her.
You were shamelessly gawking at her.
She didn't even care about it.
Hey! Is it pissing you off? Nothing of that sort.
Look at this.
She held me, gave me her number and said, 'Call me.
' She must've thought you're crazy and needed treatment.
Hey! Don't speak as such out of jealousy.
Hey! Your phone's ringing.
Pick up that damn phone.
Hey! You broke my PS3 remote.
.
- Don't you dare touch me! I'll kill you.
Bloody wretch, you're a psycho.
.
Why do you behave like this? Did I ask you to take me to a counselling session? It's you who took me to it, right? Okay, what was the need for that counselling session? Tell that to me first.
Hey, I had my reasons.
What is that reason? Oh, you wouldn't care.
I do care.
Hello! Of course, you wouldn't care.
- Hey.
.
Santhosh! Hello - Hello? Hello.
- Hey, hold on a minute.
.
- Hello? Hello' - Hey, what's it? Hey, buddy.
I'm standing outside Director Gautham Menon's office.
Really? Auditions are going on here.
He asked me how I will look without beard.
I showed him a picture of us.
He saw you and has called you for an audition.
What are you saying? Are you serious? Yes, buddy.
Did Mr.
Gautham himself ask for me? Yes, he was the one who asked you to come.
'I want to see him, ask him to come right away.
' He spoke just like the villains portrayed in his films.
Buddy, this is a great opportunity.
'Pandiya!' 'Hey, Tamil Nadu Police, fucker, come here.
' 'Hey, I'm ACP Anbuselvan, I'm coming there.
Fucker!' 'Hey, Anbuselvan, come here soon.
' 'I feel responsible.
' 'Maya!' 'I'm coming now.
' 'Come on.
.
Encounter specialist, come on.
' Buddy, what's his office address? Hey! Good thing you asked.
It's his office in Thrivanmiyur.
Don't go to that coffee shop thinking he'll be there.
Okay, buddy.
- I'll say it.
Note down the address.
No.
6.
.
Let's do it.
.
- Let's not do it.
Shit! Why did you bring up this topic all of a sudden? Just like that, it came up.
I mean.
.
If you don't think we make out enough, you should tell me.
Hmm.
So then, uh.
.
Are we still sticking by what we agreed upon? Regarding? Not to do it before marriage.
Oh! Umm.
Well.
.
Do you want to? - Not that.
.
I was.
.
I was wondering.
.
Yes, I want to.
Really? Or you're just saying because I'm saying it.
No.
.
I really want to.
And it's natural, right? I mean, everybody does it.
I'm sure Divya and Badri also would've.
.
Yes.
Maybe they would've.
Yes, must have.
And we're getting engaged in a couple of days.
- Hmm.
If you want to I think we should.
What do you mean? Is it for me or for you? Freeze! Fuck! Wow, what a candid shot! Got a perfect one, sir.
Such a candid moment.
Expressions have been captured well.
Do it one more time, please.
No.
.
Not required.
Sir, please.
- No need, sir.
Sir.
- See.
It's been ruined.
Anyway, come, take a seat.
Actually, I've got a few photographs for reference.
We will have a look at it.
It's just for reference, don't think I'm going to replicate.
My ideas are always original, this is just an inspiration.
We require two looks as far as pre-engagement is concerned.
One is traditional, another is modern.
But it should be a candid one.
No staging.
Only then your true emotions and chemistry will reflect aptly.
Exactly like the one, I clicked just now.
Wow, what a moment! That's right.
- Amazing! If you hadn't jumped in, the moment would've extended.
You were the one who ruined it.
Sir.
When someone is in such a beautiful moment my job is to jump in to click and ruin that.
I've been thrashed many times on Marina Beach because of intruding.
And haven't been spared by the dogs either during their mating season.
You're upset that I jumped in.
Look at this one.
See.
It's very nice, right? And that's candid photography.
Then so it's scheduled for early morning tomorrow? Do we have to do it early morning? Definitely, sir.
The lighting will be good, let's not miss it.
So, be ready at 6 a.
m.
sharp.
Else, I will jump in tomorrow like I did today.
So, please be on time.
Bye.
So it's early in the morning tomorrow.
Yes.
- Hmm.
I'll be here at 5 a.
m.
sharp.
Hmm.
Okay.
Okay, then I'll leave.
Uh! Why.
.
Why don't you stay here? Why? - Nothing.
If you stay here tonight we can wake up early tomorrow and get ready, right? But the costumes for the photo-shoot are at my place.
Oh, sorry.
I forgot about that.
Okay.
Then you leave.
And get here early tomorrow.
Okay, bye.
Hey.
.
Dad, take this.
What's it, dear? Hey! Why do you look dull? I had written an essay and submitted it.
My English teacher read that and said that it's not at all good.
And awarded me 3 marks out of 10, Dad.
She also left a remark, 'Very Bad.
' Let it go, dear.
You can write it well the next time.
Let it be.
I really worked hard on it, Dad.
I even gave up my weekend play time for writing this.
I wrote it well.
Why don't you read it and let me know? Look, dear.
When you're sure that you wrote it well you don't have to get upset about it.
.
But why didn't she like it? Look, dear.
Now we can't expect everyone to like everything we do.
Everyone's got a different taste.
We should be contented first.
We should do what we love.
Okay? If others like it, it's great.
If not, we have at least done what we love, right? That happiness is enough.
Okay? - Okay, Dad.
Now, let's see you smile.
Okay! Okay, shall we get ice cream on the way? Okay! Did she mention anything to you? What have they decided? Wait, we will find out leisurely.
They've just come.
Why are you in such a hurry? What do you do, Badri? Sorry, sir! Oh, God, please take that.
He was asking what your profession is.
That I'm a freelancer.
Eat first.
He doesn't know when to ask questions.
No.
- Have food and then tell us.
Okay! What are you doing as a freelancer? I-I'm a freelance designer.
.
Let him eat.
He's incorrigible.
You can answer once you're done.
Dad, Badri is a freelance designer.
I asked him, right? Let him reply to it.
Can't you answer when a question is asked? I freelance as a designer.
But my passion is stand-up comedy.
So, I'm doing that as well.
Stand-up comedy? What's that? Stand-up comedy means telling jokes standing on a stage, sir.
Is it like Crazy Mohan's plays? It's not like that, Mom.
He will be alone on stage telling jokes.
Will he stand alone and crack jokes? Who watches it? Many do.
Chennai is catching up to it.
People even buy tickets to watch.
Sometimes at a cafe or a bar.
I've been performing quite well.
Bar? - At a bar? Are you telling your jokes to drunkards? Oh, God, Dad.
It's not the local ones as you might think.
They're classy pubs.
Sometimes, people come down to just listen to him.
He doesn't have a sense of humour.
Once at his school farewell the students mocked and made a joke about him.
Instead of enjoying it, he beat them up.
He has no sense of humour.
That was in the past.
Nowadays, I get every joke.
I've been watching a lot of comedy on TV.
What genre is your comedy, Badri? Me? I mostly say sarcastic jokes.
Oh! Can you just tell us one? Huh? Joke, uh? Dad, how's it possible now all of a sudden? Why, dear, isn't that his job? He'll tell us now, look, go ahead.
What would you like to hear? Crack a joke about a teacher or a headmaster.
Mocking teachers? - Yes, go ahead.
See now how sportively I will take it.
Tell me, Badri.
Yes, sir! Why are you standing? Sit down and say the joke.
No, sir.
I'm used to standing.
Sit down, Badri! Yes, sir! How does this flavour taste? Who's that? It's Veeraselvan, you fucker! Are you ready? Mr.
Gautham Menon is waiting for you.
I'm ready.
.
- Come, let's go.
Hello, excuse me.
Who are you? Sir, my name is Santhosh, I came for the audition.
Isn't Mr.
Gautham Menon here? Shit.
Excuse me, Mr.
Santhosh.
He won't be here, I take care of the auditions.
I'm the associate director of this movie.
Okay? My name is Clap Dhanapal.
Sir, oh, does that mean, do you clap during the shoot? Bloody nonsense! Idiotic fellow.
Mr.
Santhosh.
Last assistant directors are the ones who clap during shoots.
This name was rewarded by the people of the film industry.
Understood? That is, Clap Dhanapal.
If at all there's a clap scene in the film I'll be the first to get a call.
Because I've 20 years of experience in this industry.
Give respect and take respect, okay? Because I'm the associate director of this movie.
Mind it, no more questions.
Oh, that's great.
But I've been to Mr.
Gautham Menon's office earlier I've not seen you till date.
Even I haven't seen you till now.
Bloody buggers.
I've been trying to join him, but he never takes me in.
Because he doesn't get how experienced I am.
But right now he took me in because the producer asked him to.
Oh, so with no option left.
.
He's talking too much.
Shall we get to the scene? Do it.
Does he not know English? Do it! Okay, sir.
Sir, what are you looking for? I've practiced with a modulation.
.
- Look at that.
just like the tone from Gautham's films.
- Stop it, I say.
Can you just perform now? Okay, sir.
'Do you know what you've done?' 'And how you've done? Do you know it?' 'You've turned my life upside down.
' 'Why did you do it?' 'Tell me, give me a reply.
' Did you realise what you did now? Look at him blink.
You guys have a notion when it comes to Gautham Menon's films, is it? Clap Dhanapal is here to break that notion.
I want commercial crime horror comedy and thriller.
.
All these elements.
One-liners, emotions, I'll mix them up and change his style.
I've been asking him to discuss with me, but he's refusing.
But I'm going to change that in the auditions.
I want you to be energetic, and open your mouth and perform with a lot of emotions.
And then don't speak respectfully with her.
It sounds lame.
Just curse at her.
That's the trend now.
Forgot to mention.
Do you know foul language? But you should use them aptly.
Do you need help? Come on, do it.
Do it.
Do it.
Why, sir? This dialogue is in Gautham Menon's style.
In his films, women are given utmost respect.
He's never disrespectful.
It has been my wish to speak as such for long.
Even he has written it in that way.
This is what women like these days.
Bloody, who said so? Huh? A girl had come for the audition.
She's determined to follow my style of performance.
If modern women like such things, why shouldn't we change ourselves? In fact, she's going to audition now along with you.
She's here for the auditions.
I'll call her now.
Meera.
Come out.
Santhosh is a huge fan of Gautham Menon.
His life's aim was to act in one of his films.
But I'll tell you what.
He can't act for nuts.
But he's going to try forever.
See, I understand how important this is for him.
And that's why I'm going to go there and ruin it for him.
