Mankatha (மங்காத்தா)

That's no problem, sir

We've foisted a case on him claiming he sold drugs seized by the cops

We won't be suspected We have used local thugs to do the job

I'll take care, sir

'Basheer, shoot this dog!'

That's not fair! Thick as thieves together, but he gets the blame

What do you get?

Why didn't you pick up the phone? What were you doing?

- Tell me - Haven't you got up?

Worked late last night

Did you drink?

Of course not I've sworn on you that I won't

A small assignment

You've been suspended for 6 months What is the assignment, then?

Old case

Are you at home? I'll be there soon

Please wait

I should never ever drink again!

Was that your girl friend?

'Who is she? From where did you get her?'

Who are you?

Don't be funny Let me sleep for half an hour more

I swear I don't know you Who are you?

What?

Did I do anything hanky-panky last night?

Not last night Only now...

Don't ever drink again!

My girl friend will be here You have to leave now

You promised to marry me

- When? - Last night

You went into raptures about every single feature of mine?!

You forgot all that?

I was too tanked and tipsy

Quick

Lady, here's your shoe Leave now

Is she more beautiful than me?

Will you drink again?

I didn't mean you

You just leave

Sanjay Ramaswamy, amnesia guy! He lives upstairs

When did you come?

My bag's inside

Who is she?

She came here by mistake instead of going up to the next floor

- Didn't seem that way - Then what?

Looked like she was 'hitting' on you

- Who? - That girl

Forget it

She and her dress sense, it didn't look like she was visiting your neighbor

Are you implying I pushed her out of here before your arrival?!

Are you suspecting me?

Not you I don't trust girls

Even if guys are saints, can't trust these girls!

'Where the hell did she keep it?'

What are you hunting for?

Me? Nothing

What happened to you? You are acting so weird

My head is...I've a bad headache

Shall I make coffee for you?

Thank you, honey

I forgot to tell you something

Dad wants to meet you this Friday

I didn't tell him about our love matter

He thinks we are just friends

- What's this? - 'You are dead meat!'

- Which one? - This one

You promised not to smoke

My friends who came last night

...must have left it here

Cut off your tobacco friends!

What?

- You look irresistible? - What?

Your hair

Ear

Danglers

These cheeks

Your eyes

I feel like looking at you all day long

Looks like your lips are asking for something?!

What are they asking?

- What? - Shall I brush my teeth?

'On our way'

'From Mumbai?'

'Does it tally?'

'Give 5 from the big bag'

'Chettiyar is on the line Will you talk to him?'

'How are you? Your boys are here'

'Come this way'
