Gurthukosthunnayi (గుర్తుకొస్తున్నాయి)

My grandfather often said to me,

"Keep your memories safe and sound."

"In their warmth, peace is found."

We should hold onto our memories very carefully.

Because that is where we find life.

They reminds us of who we really are.

It took me 25 years to understand what he meant back then.

I finally got a chance to step back into those memories...

and live them again.

This is my story.

Let’s relive it together.

He was supposed to come in the morning but came late.

So he got this punishment.

Punishment?

So he still loves giving punishments.

Speak carefully.

Good morning, sir.

Are you doing the wall-sit punishment again?

If you showed the same sincerity in your punctuality,

you would be somewhere else.

Useless fellows.

Do you have any sense at all?

How can you have zero discipline?

Don't you see you're giving him a tough time?

Very unprofessional milkman, sir.

I don't like it.

- Sit. - It's fine, sir.

- Sit. - It's fine, sir.

Sit down!

Sit.

Tell me, what's the matter?

Well, sir...

it's been a long time since you found out about us.

I've met you for the same reason many times.

If you don't delay it anymore and just give us the okay...

And if I don't?

Are you going to make me do a wall-sit?

Oh, no! I didn't mean that, sir.

Back in school, you'd pester me for leave.

Now it's about love.

Quit following me around, man!

He doesn't even have basic general knowledge.

How did you end up liking him?

Sir, what do you mean I don't have general knowledge?

The first Telugu actor to win a National Award?

Allu Arjun.

See... This is his general knowledge.

Not true, Dad.

Santhosh is not the same boy you met in school.

He has changed a lot now.

Yes, sir. I am completely changed.

I swear on you.

Never mind.

I swear on Vaishali.

Never mind again.

I swear on myself.

Prove that you've changed.

It's not enough if you feel the change within you.

I need to see it.

Then listen, Dad.

From now on, Santhosh will sleep and wake up early.

He will do yoga and become like a yogi.

Cold water baths and raw vegetable meals.

He will work on time and earn money.

He will realize that booze isn't medicine and stay away from it.

He won’t change by force, but with focus.

He'll be careful about his future and take care of me, for I am his future.

He will be punctual and become spiritual.

Overall, he will become the definition of discipline.

Santhosh’s life principle will be this principal’s way of life.

If he misses even one of these,

makes even a small mistake,

or if you find even a single excuse,

you can cancel this wedding, Dad.

Cancel it, sir.

Cancel it.

And remember...

this is your last chance.

Are you shocked, Dad?

Doesn't he look like a reflection of you?

Now would you agree that Santhosh would do anything for me?

Please, Dad.

Tea and coffee look alike.

But you need to taste them to tell which is which.

Similarly, he and I could never be alike.

You believe that he has changed.

I believe in you.

So, I approve.

Even Shishupal, the infamous sinner, comes second to him.

He will make a mistake.

And I'll be there to catch it.

But remember,

one mistake...

and you're done!

Yes!

Vaishu...

- Advance payment for the function hall? - Check!

- Measurements for your wedding outfit? - Check!

- Wedding cards? - Check!

First wedding card...

According to our horoscopes,

our families should be the first to exchange wedding invitations.

We shouldn't send it out to anyone else before that.

Oh!

Okay.

The priest has told my dad that...

we shouldn't leave the city for the next 3 days.

My dad has told me.

I'm telling you now.

I have no plans of leaving the city anyway.

Can't wait to start our new life.

I love you, Santhosh!

I love you too, Vaishu.

- Okay, bye. - Bye.

Yes, sir?

I want to mail these wedding invitations.

Name of the receiver, please?

Roll No. 1, Bomma Anand!

Present, Teacher.

Roll No. 6, Ganesh!

Yes, Teacher.

MAHESH GROCERY & GENERAL STORES

Roll No. 23, Srikanth!

Yes, Teacher.

Hi, guys.

How are you doing?

Do you know the worst thing that can happen between friends?

It's having to ask each other how they're doing.

Because...

that one question signifies the distance between us.

That is why...

I've decided to bridge the distance I created.

We created so many memories together.

Let's reminisce about them all at my wedding.

I'm not just sending you my wedding invitation.

It's an invitation for us to meet again.

Why did you call?

What's the matter?

How come you suddenly thought of us?

Guys, cut the drama!

Get to the point.

Jolly!

Jolly! I have the dot, look!

Srikanth, you're caught. Stop pretending now.

Remember, you owe us a party when we meet.

I remember. I always do. He only keeps forgetting.

Bomma, you used to look like actor Tarun back in school.

What happened to you now?

Mom...

I passed CA, just as you wished.

I did it, Mom!

- My son... - Mom...

- My son... - Mom...

Mom?

Mom?

Mom? Mom?

Mom, wake up!

Mom, I worked hard and studied well, just like you wished.

I took my exams and waited for the results.

I finally passed CA, Mom.

I even brought the certificates.

Please wake up and take a look, Mom.

Please wake up, Mom! Please! Please!

- That's all you have to do, sir. - Got it.

Hey! I told you not to touch me while explaining the scene!

Sorry, ma'am. I was in the flow.

I don't mind him touching me.
