Kadikara Manithargal (கடிகார மனிதர்கள்)

Why everyone is searching franticly for home...

Why there's a shadow of betrayal on every face...

Is it a city of cheats?

Is it a city mad after money?

Is it a city with no place to bury dead also?

There's home for an ant also...

Did it get to live there?

Whatever it sees, considering as its own...

Did it make any rules?

O man, you're searching franticly...

Tell me, where should I unload it, sir?

Wait, he said he'll come here.

Wait for 5 minutes, he's not answering phone.

If you tell I'll unload here and have to take material to Pondicherry, sir.

Very urgent, sir. - Wait, I'll come now.

Okay, sir.

Have you come, sir?

Come straight into Narayanasami Street.

Sir, please come here.

Greetings, sir.

What's this, sir? You said it's okay if I find home next month.

Suddenly you called at 12 and wanted a home on rent immediately.

What can I do, sir?

Throwing out my household things at night, they shut down my office also.

It blew into a big problem.

I don't know what to do, sir.

That's why I came to the address you gave me.

Driver doesn't know this.

Wife and children are waiting in van.

Would anyone search for home with baggage in van?

Just a minute, I'll come now.

Tell me.

Brother, someone has informed police about drugs in home.

What are you saying?

I think drug peddler Lakshmi would've told them.

I mustn't get any phone on my mobile.

Inform all our boys.

If there's any trouble, call my personal number.

Okay, brother.

Buddy, don't call another transporter. I'll surely come, buddy.

Okay, come to the place I'll tell.

Buddy, I'll be in office in an hour.

Don't fix anyone else. - Please wait sir, I'll come back now.

What to do, sir?

When people vacate house, they leave behind unwanted things.

This bag is full of books, my friend runs tuition centre in next street.

If I give this to him, it'll help poor children to study, right?

I brought it to hand it over to him on the way.

Keep it yourself. - Okay.

Van can't come from this side, we'll use the short cut to reach.

You come around to Fourth Street. - Okay, brother.

Get in quickly, man. - Okay, brother.

Start quickly.

Come, let's go. Come.

Go, come around the road. - Okay, brother.

You come with me, let's go.

Boss, if our plan succeeds, we'll own such flats.

Stop...stop... - What are you doing in this area, madam?

What area? All areas are mine.

Who is she, boss? - Beggar woman in next street.

I made her junior artiste in films.

She ran away with costume and wig.

Great wig! I'm getting good money if I beg with this wig.

Okay, drop me near that signal.

You can't find a house if you search for 10 days.

We're searching for a house carrying household articles.

Don't know what to do now?

I came here trusting you, please do something.

You trust me, right? I'll surely find a house for you.

I didn't sleep last night, I'm having head ache.

Shall we have a tea? - Okay, have it.

Subbu, two teas please. - Okay, brother, I'll prepare.

I don't want, one tea is enough. - Why?

Okay, make it one tea.

Don't know where's that van driver?

Brother, take your tea. - He's here...hello!

Hey you, come here.

Come. - Coming, brother.

You're too naive.

Where am I to search for you?

He's so foolish.

Come.

Where's the house, brother?

House is there, first have tea.

First have tea, man.

If you show house, I'll unload the things, I've urgent work, brother.

Any vacant house in your area?

People are very smart now, brother.

They pay advance before house is vacated.

They don't allow putting to-let board. How can anyone find a house?

No vacant house, who needs house now, brother?

Sir needs.

Hold this.

Why are you getting anxious? - Not yet found a house?

Have tea, man.

Hold this, how can you do this? This will not work out.

First have tea, man.

One minute, I'll call you now.

Stop...please, tell me and go.

Have tea peacefully, talk to him and come near van.

Sir....would anyone search for vacant house carrying luggage?

Please bear it, brother. He'll find one.

I'm getting late, sir.

Go!

Go...go...

I'm getting late, sir, please tell me.

How much? - Rs.8, sir.

Early morning got stuck with a nuisance customer.

Confirm it, I'll be there.

I said I'll come...I'll come.

I'll come.

What are you going to do?

He'll definitely find a house.

Till I find a house, I'll see how can he take the van.

No way, I'll unload things here, you find another van.

I can understand your problem, what can I do if you talk like this?

Tell her to get down, sir. I've to unload things.

Why are you shouting on him?

Am I shouting? Will you search for house carrying luggage?

Take a day's rent as extra, tell your boss.

I don't want, unload your luggage.

Please listen to me.

Wait, sir. - Can't I unload it?

Unload it. - Let me see it.

What's this? - He looks suspicious.

Don't unload it. - You unload it.

Don't rush, sir. - Please listen to me, brother.

Let him unload it. - You'll understand if I unload it.

Let him do it. - Keep quiet, brother.

Bloody!

Are you happy now?

Brother, you must listen if I say something.

We'll go the opposite street and see a house. Okay?

Madam, please wait here. You come with me, sir.

Sir, people don't care for soft requests.

We can run our life, only if we cheat people.

We requested him humbly, did he care to listen to us?

Come, let's see a house.

Hello! Whom do you want to meet?

Why are you coming without closing the gate?

People generally ask, why did you come opening the gate?

You're asking why I came without closing the gate?

I'm sure you're a good girl.

I need a house on rent.

If you tell who the owner is... - I'm the owner but no vacant home on rent.

To-let board was hanging on gate, so... - My gate?

No way.

We've on compound gate on backside.

My father is in backyard, talk to him.

Do you own that house also?

What exactly you want?

How many will stay?

3 children and husband and wife, totally 5.

5 people can't stay here.

Only 3 can stay here, we've water problem here.

We'll adjust, sir.

No, it'll not be fine, we'll face problems.

Come, let's find another house, sir.

I told him to bring 2 or 3 members only, he's bringing big crowd to kill me.

People must seek your permission to have children.

We don't give on rent to non-vegetarians.

Can have at least eggs, right?

It'll not work out, you can go.

Come, let's find another house.

How can children grow without eating eggs also?

Come, let's go.

This is the house, see inside. Water is no problem.

Attached bath, separate meter.

Total will come to Rs.7000.

Can you offer it for Rs.4000, sir? - Rs.4000?

Hello broker! Won't you tell customers before bringing them?

Torturing me early morning. Take him away.

Come, sir.

They'll lament with me at tea shop but on coming here they'll talk rules.

Anyway you can't get a house for Rs.3500, sir.

Rent is Rs.8000, nothing for Rs.4000.

Come if Rs.8000 is okay to you, no house for Rs.4000.

Already let out.

Fluttering lamps...

Can it question blowing wind?

Boats floating in water...

Can it question water?

Like a insect searching for food...

Like is getting eaten away by white ants...

A group is struggling to hit shore...

No use in accusing them, sir.

They take loans, bank loans to build houses.

Bank goes after them for monthly installments.

To pay banks, they increase rents for us.

If this goes on, how can people live in rented homes in Chennai?

Don't know what the van driver is doing?

Is it Rangasami brother?

I'm Arumugam broker here. - Go on.

Any vacant house with you, brother?

I do. - Yes, very good party, brother.

Which place? - My place...neighbouring place.

How many children?

I'll tell everything personally, brother.
