(piercing title music)

00:26.105 --> 00:27.545
(birds chirping)

00:29.065 --> 00:30.065
(soft, rhythmic rustling)

00:37.065 --> 00:38.185
(metallic thud)

00:42.625 --> 00:44.225
I don't do it these days.

00:44.745 --> 00:45.785
Leave me be.

00:47.505 --> 00:49.105
Who else is there for me
other than you?

00:49.945 --> 00:51.185
Please don't say no.

00:54.825 --> 00:56.505
One last time.
Please don't think.

00:57.665 --> 00:59.144
(tender music)

00:59.145 --> 01:00.265
Do this for me.

01:02.745 --> 01:04.425
You won't face any problems
because of this.

01:10.305 --> 01:11.665
Here, take this.

01:13.025 --> 01:13.945
Take it.

01:17.665 --> 01:18.865
Keep it near the head.

01:22.745 --> 01:23.945
Be there on time.

01:24.585 --> 01:25.505
I'll go now.

01:26.185 --> 01:27.425
(whistling breeze)

01:36.105 --> 01:38.305
(rhythmic music)

02:49.305 --> 02:51.504
(Sidharthan) <i>In the Ponnumaarapatti
Temple Festival,</i>

02:51.505 --> 02:54.545
<i>Muthu was the one who killed
both Mokkarasu and Thadiyan.</i>

02:55.265 --> 03:00.505
<i>After that, he left Kanmani Dance
Troupe and even Madurai.</i>

03:01.265 --> 03:02.945
<i>Where did Muthu go after that?</i>

03:03.265 --> 03:04.825
<i>Who killed him?</i>

03:04.945 --> 03:06.385
<i>There's no information
about any of this.</i>

03:08.065 --> 03:12.105
<i>Today, the court ordered
to bury Muthu's head.</i>

03:13.385 --> 03:15.104
<i>Muthu's head will reach
the police station</i>

03:15.105 --> 03:16.865
<i>from the mortuary tomorrow.</i>

03:29.385 --> 03:30.385
Hello, sir.

03:33.425 --> 03:34.985
Who are you?
What's the matter?

03:35.545 --> 03:36.785
I am here from Ernakulam.

03:37.705 --> 03:39.905
- You got a head, right? Muthu?
- Yes.

03:40.225 --> 03:41.505
He was my friend.

03:42.225 --> 03:43.225
Babu.

03:45.265 --> 03:46.385
Pattalam Babu?

03:52.025 --> 03:53.785
(poignant music)

03:58.345 --> 03:59.345
It is Muthu.

04:17.465 --> 04:20.505
Muthu was in contact
with me for three years.

04:21.585 --> 04:23.985
For the last couple of months,

04:24.225 --> 04:29.305
I don't know where he went
and what he did, sir.

04:29.705 --> 04:31.225
(weary sigh)

04:34.505 --> 04:35.945
I'll tell you everything, sir.

04:36.505 --> 04:37.665
Sivettan is dead.

04:38.305 --> 04:39.624
Muthu is dead.

04:39.625 --> 04:41.785
(scoffs) I don't care
if anything happens to me.

04:42.145 --> 04:43.585
I'll tell you everything, sir.

04:47.825 --> 04:49.105
(vehicle approaching)

04:54.825 --> 04:57.144
(Babu) <i>We got to know that
Johny was released from jail</i>

04:57.145 --> 04:59.465
<i>last September after 10 years.</i>

04:59.945 --> 05:01.864
<i>We searched for him
in a lot of places.</i>

05:01.865 --> 05:03.345
<i>But we couldn't find him.</i>

05:04.105 --> 05:06.745
<i>Three months ago,
Johny and his gang</i>

05:07.265 --> 05:10.064
<i>kidnapped me to a factory in Aluva.</i>

05:10.065 --> 05:12.585
<i>They took Muthu's number
from my phone</i>

05:12.705 --> 05:15.105
<i>and threatened to kill me
if he didn't come.</i>

05:15.745 --> 05:19.385
<i>Johny knew Muthu would come
for sure if I was in danger.</i>

05:26.625 --> 05:28.185
(rattling music)

05:42.465 --> 05:43.625

06:06.025 --> 06:06.985
(heavy, limp thud)

06:08.465 --> 06:09.785
(distant rhythmic clanking)

06:18.705 --> 06:19.745
(Muthu panting)

06:22.385 --> 06:23.865
(strained rope creaking)

06:28.225 --> 06:29.945
(coughs) Babu!

06:31.065 --> 06:32.065
What happened?

06:32.545 --> 06:33.745
Eh...

06:33.985 --> 06:34.985
Muthu.

06:36.465 --> 06:37.745
I didn't say anything.

06:38.265 --> 06:39.265
(metallic clanking)

06:39.425 --> 06:40.345
(grunts, strains)

06:41.785 --> 06:43.025
(Muthu grunts louder)

06:44.305 --> 06:47.385
He took your number
from my phone.

06:48.025 --> 06:49.505
Who did this?

06:49.785 --> 06:50.785
Is it Johny?

06:51.145 --> 06:52.625
(Johny) It is Johny!

06:54.105 --> 06:56.825
Muthu! Muthu! Muthu!

06:57.265 --> 06:58.265
(screams) Johny!

06:58.425 --> 06:59.545
Hey!

06:59.905 --> 07:02.345
It's always fun to see you.

07:03.265 --> 07:05.305
Muthu, I searched for you
everywhere.

07:06.465 --> 07:08.544
Kerala, Tamil Nadu...
There isn't a place

07:08.545 --> 07:10.065
where I didn't look for you.

07:10.545 --> 07:14.025
Even your girlfriend wouldn't have
searched for you like this.

07:16.905 --> 07:18.865
I have so much love for you!

07:19.265 --> 07:20.544
Do you know that, Muthu?

07:20.545 --> 07:21.505
(metallic clanks)

07:24.865 --> 07:25.865
How is she?

07:26.145 --> 07:27.265
Your Meena.

07:28.545 --> 07:29.905
- (shouts) Hey, Johny!
- (cackles)

07:36.225 --> 07:38.904
Babu said he didn't know
where the money is.

07:38.905 --> 07:39.945
What is this?

07:41.545 --> 07:42.985
I'll repeat what Sivettan told you.

07:43.665 --> 07:45.945
You won't get
even a single paisa from that money!

07:46.105 --> 07:48.665
Eh... That's fine.

07:53.865 --> 07:55.825
(in Hindi) But I know one thing.

07:56.865 --> 08:01.065
You both know where the money is.

08:01.345 --> 08:02.465
Huh?

08:03.385 --> 08:05.905
I also know this old man
won't tell me.

08:07.785 --> 08:08.985
But...

08:09.825 --> 08:11.465
you will tell me.

08:11.985 --> 08:13.105
(chain clanking)

08:19.345 --> 08:20.265
- Hey!
- (heavy thud)

08:20.625 --> 08:21.625
Hey!

08:22.145 --> 08:24.105
What's the point in hitting him?

08:25.105 --> 08:26.345
Hit this fucker!

08:27.145 --> 08:28.945
Only then Muthu will feel the pain.

08:31.345 --> 08:33.304
(Babu begins yelping in pain)

08:33.305 --> 08:34.264
Hey!

08:34.265 --> 08:35.145
Johny!

08:35.465 --> 08:37.185
(Muthu) No!

08:38.625 --> 08:39.864
(Muthu) Johny!

08:39.865 --> 08:40.865
Muthu!

08:41.025 --> 08:42.105
(groans)

08:42.825 --> 08:45.665
(panting) Let these dogs do
anything to me!

08:46.025 --> 08:47.025
(groans)

08:47.625 --> 08:48.784
You don't say anything.

08:48.785 --> 08:49.745
(Babu screams)

08:51.785 --> 08:53.225
- Babu!
- This fucker

08:54.065 --> 08:58.225
- will die without getting the money.
- Hey, Johny!

08:58.465 --> 08:59.545
(Babu groans)

08:59.745 --> 09:00.865
- Don't do this, Johny!
- (Babu screaming)

09:01.345 --> 09:02.465
(heavy thumping and Babu screaming)

09:02.665 --> 09:03.945
(laughing) Oh, my God!

09:04.065 --> 09:05.665
Oh, my God!

09:05.985 --> 09:07.385
What can I say?

09:08.305 --> 09:09.665
- Poor Sivettan.
- (Babu screams)

09:10.425 --> 09:12.945
Even though he had
such loyal people,

09:14.425 --> 09:16.345
he died so soon, right?

09:18.105 --> 09:22.145
Ugh! I can't watch this drama.

09:22.425 --> 09:24.185
Call me if he says anything.

09:25.105 --> 09:26.145
(screaming continues)

09:28.585 --> 09:29.665
(tense music)

09:37.145 --> 09:38.265
(shouting muffles, echoes)

09:51.825 --> 09:54.025
(music intensifies)

09:56.145 --> 09:57.105
Stop it!

09:59.505 --> 10:00.465
Go get Johny!

10:00.625 --> 10:01.545
I'll tell him where the money is.

10:02.905 --> 10:04.025
(Babu groaning)

10:06.105 --> 10:07.345
(rapid, retreating thuds)

10:10.865 --> 10:11.905
(metallic clanking)

10:14.985 --> 10:16.185
(groans)

10:16.985 --> 10:18.705
(intense groaning)

10:24.425 --> 10:26.145
(hollow, vibrating metal stress)

10:27.665 --> 10:28.985
(metallic snap, explosive hiss)

10:33.465 --> 10:34.625
(metallic clanking)

10:40.785 --> 10:41.705
(metallic thud)

10:44.505 --> 10:45.665
(pulsating music)

10:46.065 --> 10:47.065
Hey!

10:48.825 --> 10:49.865
(groans)

10:51.585 --> 10:52.545
- (sharp, visceral squelch)
- (man groaning)

11:02.065 --> 11:03.465
(metallic clanking)

11:06.985 --> 11:08.105
Hey!

11:18.185 --> 11:19.145
Babu!

11:20.545 --> 11:21.825
(high-pitched, screaming whistle)

11:23.665 --> 11:24.825
(metal shuddering)

11:28.065 --> 11:29.225
(continuous hiss)

11:36.745 --> 11:37.945
(metallic thud)

11:38.265 --> 11:39.185
(groans)

11:39.545 --> 11:40.585
(metallic thud)

11:46.065 --> 11:47.144
(screams) Johny!

11:47.145 --> 11:48.065
(heavy thud)

11:50.345 --> 11:51.945
This won't end with me, Muthu.

11:52.465 --> 11:53.705
You need to die.

11:53.985 --> 11:55.785
That will be the end of everything.

11:56.025 --> 11:57.065
(irritated shout)

11:59.465 --> 12:00.465
(wet, tearing slice)

12:01.145 --> 12:02.065
(sharp slice)

12:02.225 --> 12:03.145
(Johny groans)

12:04.865 --> 12:06.065
(heavy thud)

12:07.825 --> 12:08.825
(Johny screaming in pain)

12:12.145 --> 12:13.185
(screaming continues)

12:16.625 --> 12:17.785
(metallic thud)

12:21.745 --> 12:23.065
(screaming continues)

12:27.105 --> 12:28.465
(music swells)

12:51.905 --> 12:53.145
(goat bleating)

13:03.745 --> 13:04.745
Give it here.

13:05.065 --> 13:06.264
Come.
Karuppu.

13:06.265 --> 13:07.265
Come here.

13:09.905 --> 13:10.825
Hey...

13:10.945 --> 13:12.385
Take it.
Hold this.

13:13.465 --> 13:15.145
You asked for
a pregnant goat.

13:15.385 --> 13:16.905
- Keep this.
- Boss.

13:18.905 --> 13:19.825
Hey.

13:20.465 --> 13:24.105
Whether you like it or not, you need
to do everything for this goat.

13:24.945 --> 13:27.145
Because this is your goat.
Okay?

13:27.945 --> 13:29.345
(tender music)

13:32.225 --> 13:34.265
While I'm on my way, I'll leave
the hay for the goat at your place.

13:36.505 --> 13:37.865
Don't tell my mother.

13:38.145 --> 13:39.145
Okay, boss.

13:41.465 --> 13:43.225
(music swells)

13:45.705 --> 13:46.705
Boss!

13:47.265 --> 13:48.745
I'll forever be grateful
to you, boss.

13:50.705 --> 13:51.745
Stay well, boss!

13:59.225 --> 14:00.505
Come, let's go.

14:04.545 --> 14:06.105
(peacock calling)

14:18.905 --> 14:20.705
(Thangamudi) He committed three
murders at the factory in Kerala.

14:21.185 --> 14:23.225
Two murders at the festival.

14:23.545 --> 14:24.865
So, he committed five murders.
That's fine.

14:25.025 --> 14:26.984
But the restaurant guy
said he killed seven people.

14:26.985 --> 14:27.945
Who would they be?

14:28.145 --> 14:31.425
(Sidharthan) We know very little
about Muthu and Sivettan's lives.

14:31.905 --> 14:34.665
Now I understand
why he's called "Kaattaan."

14:34.785 --> 14:35.944
Mm-hmm.

14:35.945 --> 14:37.705
- This is a strange case.
- Sir!

14:38.505 --> 14:39.704
Look at this, sir.

14:39.705 --> 14:40.825
(intense music)

14:42.505 --> 14:44.065
There's something written
as "Muthu" in this.

14:45.425 --> 14:48.025
Sir, what's written here?
Read it and tell us.

14:49.385 --> 14:52.024
It's about the three killings
at a factory in Aluva.

14:52.025 --> 14:54.225
- Muthu already gave us a clue.
- Okay?

14:54.385 --> 14:55.985
- But we didn't notice.
- Oh, God!

15:01.585 --> 15:02.985
I have a theory now.

15:03.825 --> 15:05.065
I will explain.

15:07.865 --> 15:09.344
<i>From Benny's words,</i>

15:09.345 --> 15:12.504
<i>we understand that Johny hired men
from Madurai when he was in jail</i>

15:12.505 --> 15:14.225
<i>and killed Sivettan.</i>

15:14.745 --> 15:18.065
<i>Muthu got to know that the killers
came from Madurai or Dindigul.</i>

15:18.505 --> 15:21.985
<i>He took on the role of
a dung dealer to find them.</i>

15:22.665 --> 15:24.944
<i>It became easier for him</i>

15:24.945 --> 15:26.825
<i>when he joined as a driver
for the Kanmani Dance Troupe.</i>

15:27.345 --> 15:30.905
<i>At all the temple festivals
around Madurai</i>

15:31.025 --> 15:35.745
<i>and wherever people gathered,
he could easily look for the killers.</i>

15:36.185 --> 15:38.064
<i>Johny's men also came
in search of Muthu</i>

15:38.065 --> 15:40.305
<i>to the Kanmani Dance Troupe.</i>

15:40.785 --> 15:44.544
<i>During the Ponnumaarapatti
Festival in 2014,</i>

15:44.545 --> 15:48.185
<i>Muthu saw Mokkarasu and Thadiyan,
the ones who killed Sivettan.</i>

15:48.545 --> 15:51.304
<i>He killed them instantly</i>

15:51.305 --> 15:52.825
<i>and disappeared.</i>

15:52.985 --> 15:56.984
<i>Once Johny was released from jail,
he killed him to take his revenge.</i>

15:56.985 --> 15:59.025
<i>He might've wanted to keep
the dangers around him</i>

15:59.265 --> 16:03.505
<i>from affecting Meena
and the people he cared about.</i>

16:03.905 --> 16:05.745
<i>But why this mysterious murder?</i>

16:06.665 --> 16:08.424
<i>A severed head in a barren land.</i>

16:08.425 --> 16:09.985
<i>And a lot of cash near it.</i>

16:10.585 --> 16:14.505
<i>Muthu cleverly used the policemen
of Periyaveerampatti</i>

16:14.625 --> 16:16.105
<i>to his advantage.</i>

16:17.065 --> 16:20.944
<i>We wandered around Kerala and
Tamil Nadu carrying his picture</i>

16:20.945 --> 16:25.225
<i>to inform everyone of his death,
just as his relatives would have.</i>

16:25.705 --> 16:30.625
<i>Johny's men, Sengal Soola Ravi
and many others we didn't know</i>

16:30.745 --> 16:32.505
<i>wouldn't search for Muthu anymore.</i>

16:33.025 --> 16:35.425
<i>It's a form of protection for Meena.</i>

16:36.065 --> 16:39.225
<i>He used us to advertise his death.</i>

16:39.945 --> 16:42.705
<i>But why did Muthu go
to the mental hospital?</i>

16:43.025 --> 16:45.305
<i>How was his head cut off?</i>

16:45.825 --> 16:47.224
<i>Where is his body?</i>

16:47.225 --> 16:48.705
<i>There are no answers.</i>

16:49.745 --> 16:51.545
<i>It is an unsolved case.</i>

16:58.185 --> 16:59.985
(poignant music)

17:17.185 --> 17:18.865
(tender, melancholic music)

17:28.865 --> 17:30.025
(metallic thud)

17:46.625 --> 17:47.985
(scraping continues)

18:17.225 --> 18:18.145
Let's go.

18:50.745 --> 18:51.665
Hey.

18:53.225 --> 18:54.825
That ₹2 lakh belongs to you.

18:55.545 --> 18:57.785
Sir, I don't need this money.

18:58.305 --> 18:59.905
I swear I didn't do this for money.

19:00.425 --> 19:01.784
You're the one who buried him.

19:01.785 --> 19:03.185
It belongs to you.

19:04.025 --> 19:05.025
You will get it.

19:05.265 --> 19:06.705
This was Muthu's wish.

19:14.185 --> 19:15.785
(sniffles, clears throat)

19:18.505 --> 19:20.424
- Sir, no...
- (Sidharthan tsks)

19:20.425 --> 19:21.384
Forget it.

19:21.385 --> 19:22.545
Do you have any booze?

19:23.905 --> 19:24.985
I do, sir.

19:26.785 --> 19:27.945
(peacock calling in distance)

20:08.105 --> 20:11.505
MOM - MUTHU - DAD

20:13.905 --> 20:15.025
(silent mouthing)

20:20.625 --> 20:22.025
(tender music swells)

21:03.385 --> 21:05.105
(triumphant, swelling chords)

21:20.945 --> 21:21.945
Hey!

21:22.305 --> 21:23.424
Stop!

21:23.425 --> 21:24.464
You son of Kaattaan!

21:24.465 --> 21:26.065
Hey, stop.

21:26.785 --> 21:28.785
Where do you think
you're running off to? Come on.

21:28.905 --> 21:29.938
Shall we go inside?

21:29.939 --> 21:31.665
(kisses) Come on.

21:32.585 --> 21:34.545
(warm, swelling orchestral music)

21:46.785 --> 21:48.105
