yesterday's episode, if not for a man in deathbed, was chock full of humor and comedy of errors...and the last laugh was on Rajesh.......and us....
Guru and Rajesh try out Arthi's number from a PCO and Guru listens avidly and then says, all he hears is some female saying, please check the number you have dialed (in tamil)..Rajesh gets more antsy as he feels the effects of poison doing its wonders in his stomach. The shop-owner is watching this drama with worry and interest. Guru tries again and it is just then Arthi sets her cell phone for charging. Guru says line kedaikkala and Rajesh says, enakku mudivu kedachidum pOla irukkE. then 'line pOguthu by Guru and Rajesh - naan pOyiduvEn...
scene transfers to Abhi's. Arthi sits down to do something and Anu comes by with an armful of clothes, unplugs Arthi's cell phone to plug in the iron. As expected a brief tussle and exchange for words follow and Anu says that she is pleasant to all the other family members and it is only Arthi she is having problems with. guess what - you are being very difficult, obstinate and demanding, tells Anu. Mano comes in and asks both of them to chill out and Anu just walks away.
Here, a very perturbed Rajesh asks Guru to try the landline and they borrow a rupee from the shopkeeper, Guru says 'numberai pOttuttEn' and Rajesh says, naan adhukulLa mandaiyai pOttura pOrEn'. and Arthi picks up the phone and a very inebriated Guru tells her that he has admitted Rajesh in so and so hospital after he consumed poison. Arthi is shocked and rushes outside. Rajendar mama is watching all this drama from inside.
PCO - Guru tells Rajesh that he has done as promised and now Rajesh wants to hurry up to the hospital. Guru looks at Rajesh longingly and with emotion (clean up your dirty minds, readers) and tells him that he will be there for him. Rajesh asks why Guru is crying and the Guru says, just because and then he starts foaming at the mouth. Looks like our Baasha deduces at that time just like us that in his state, Guru had switched bottles and he took poison. Rajesh is now alarmed at the rapids coming out of Hipster. More alarmed is the shopkeeper. Guru says, that is what must have happened - in his confusion, since both bottles looked similar, he had drunk the contents intended for Rajesh...so saying, he slumps..Rajesh who is now out of his -pain-in-stomach-am-going-to-die stupor, calls out for an auto, with their help, takes Guru to the hospital.
Hospital - Police come and interrogate Rajesh and the shopkeeper says it looked like Guru and Rajesh were in trouble and then this happened - enna mun virOdhamO? Rajesh shouts why he shd surmise like that and then it is Guru's parents. The mom is praying for her son. She tells the inspector that though Rajesh and guru were good friends, nothing came out of it and it badly influenced her son. Also, she brings out the Alams matter and says, maybe Rajesh wanted to finish off Guru coz of that. Rajesh keeps crying he wouldn't harm his friend, it was all a mistake but he gets beaten. Arthi hurries up and hears the whole thing. Now Rajesh says, the poison was intended for him...coz he had personal problems with his wife who refused to live with him. So, he wanted to try this stunt; Arthi flinches and is angry, shows disgust. Inspector beats Rajesh some more and finally (phew!!!!!!!) someone better teach this stupid female abt humanity to a kind being..(the kind being, being Rajesh) Now the inspector is sure it is all a concocted story...how else will a wife be here to corroborate his evidence when she even refused to live with him? He tells Rajesh that if Guru dies, then he is in a kanji...(sorry, can't use the word 'soup' with reference to autowala)
Abhi construction high level meeting with low-level employees, sans Athimber. all the lowlife jandhus - krishnan, basker and Ganga are present. Abhi looks vere pretty in a green saree. Rajamani K again talks abt her woes and Ganga lays out a plan. She tells that they can sell the 7 apartments. Abhi asks her point blank if it is her own idea or that of Thols'? Rajamani K says it is a good one and that way, she can ward off her impending financial doomsday. Abhi says no, under no circumstance, we will sell those apts. KichKich chimes in support of Abhi. He quotes that money invested in buildings never goes waste...and says, which business did not suffer a loss? Abi says, it may look as though they are in a fix now but they are sure to come out of it. doesn't Rajamani trust Abhi? if so, believe in her. there is a workaround. also, Kich Kich says, even if we had got all 10 apartments, we would have demolished all those apartments and it would have been a while till you saw your money. RK agrees to this valid argument but now it is Ganga who delivers her two paisa opposition. She says, all said and done, it is true that it is RK's decision and money and they shd understand her position. She angered all her partners, sent them out and invested hugely in this project which by the looks, is going down the tubes. So, she has to protect her investment. Abi chimes in and firmly says, that she absolutely refuses to sell those 7 apartments and when it came to Adhi or Abhi, RK chose Abhi and that trust will be realized soon and Abhi will make this project a huge success, in spite of these minor bottlenecks..(no, she was not talking abt Rajesh and Hipster).
Abhi says, I know Thols and you all think he is behind all these distasteful happenings but I know there is someone manipulating events and by Jove, I will expose who it is who is framing Thols (a good man) and deliver this project. Ganga's face falls literally to the table as she looks on anxiously. Hallelujah! at last Abhi acting with the right dose of determination in the right direction....ooops! forgot to mention - the camera pans to Basker's and Krishnan's not-so-happy countenances as well. this doesn't bode well with either of them....
..........thodarum...
prediction - next scene - we will have Adhi foaming at the mouth...hope Thols uses the power of attorney to the benefit of Abhi, cutting Ganga's already big nose along with Adhi's pinocchio one.
