Days run in a super cool way..

After 2 months, K again goes to a project for just 3 days..

To avoid the irking feel, M goes to the market..

She just roams around the market, to get some some nice, fresh vegetables..

While looking here and there to buy cauliflower, she feels like somebody is tapping her shoulder..

She turns to see Nithya, who is her schoolmate and also the daughter of Mrs.Abirami..

Hey..Nee nithya dhana?

N-Happada..Mullai dhana nee..

Epdi di iruka?

M-Super ah iruken di..

Nee..

N-Enakku enna..nalla iruken..

Nee apdiye iruka Mulla..

Aal maarave illa..

M-Thanks Nithya..Neeyum dhan..

N-Apram, husband, pasanga laam epdi irukanga?

Rendu paiyan dhana unakku?

M-Aama Nithi.. Padikranga.. Oruthan Missouri la..Innoruthan Haryana la..

Husband inga dhan..Settled in Mumbai..

Nee?

N-Enakku enna di..

Amma, dance, avlo dhan..

M-Marriage...

N-Pannikala Mulla..

M didn't ask why..

She knows well that Nithya loved a guy and they didn't agree because she has zero wealth and she is a daughter of a dancer..

She just taps N's shoulder..

M-Apram..Enna indha pakkam?

Ingaya settle aagiruka?

N-Illa Mulla..

Oru dance program kaaga vandhom..

10 naal..

Amma keezha vizhundhutaanga..

M-Aiyo ennachu..

N-Perusa onnum illa..vandha anniku keezha vizhundhutaanga..

Sprain..

Aada mudila..

Naan dhan paathukren..

Ingadhan pakkathula stay..

Variya Mulla?

Her eyes spark with anticipation..

M thinks for a minute..

Veetla avahalum illa..

Poi enna panradhu..

Pesama poitu avangala paathutu varalaam..

She decides and calls up KA to convey the same..

Polaam Nithi..

She buys some fruits and health drinks to meet her master..

Ni-Auto la polaama?

M-Naan car la dhan vandhen..

Vaa, adhulaye polaam..

They get on the car..

Dri-Papa, veetuka ma?

M-Illa na..Ivanga address solluvanga..

Nithi..sollu..

She tells the address where they are staying and the car moves..

A silence and tranquility breeze through the car..

M thinks of those days..

Those golden days..

The desire rises up slowly.

Nithya is wondering how small the world is..

And the same Mullai, who didn't even change a bit after all these days..

When the reached the place, M feels nervous..

Enna Mulla, amaidhiya iru..

Onnum illa..

She tells herself..

They go to the room where the master stays..

M runs on seeing her and falls on her feet..

Madam, epdi irukeenga..

Nalla irukeengala?

Enna theriyudha?

Ab-Mulla.. Epdi ma iruka?

M-Super ah iruken..

Neenga master?

Yennachu..

Nithya sonna..

Yen ipdi aachu..

Ab-With a smile..

Vayasachu ma..

Inime munnadi maadhiri aadi odi panradhu laam korachikanum..

M-Adhellam illa..

Neenga laam always active..

Apdi paaka dhan nallarkku..

Ab-Enna vidu ma.. Nee epdi iruka?

Husband, pasanga laam..

M answers her promptly..

Ab-Romba sandhosham ma..

Pasanga ipa illa na unakku pozhudhu epdi pogudhu?

M-Konjam kashtam dhan..

Aana, pazhagiruchu..

They continue talking for sometime about random stuffs..

And, M thinks to leave..

Sari, naan varava?

Veetla theduvaanga time aache nu..

Ab-Onnu kekkava ma?

M-Sollunga master..

Ab-Innum 10 naal la program irukku..

Nee free ah irundhu, unakku okay na, vandhu konjam students ah paathukriya ma?

N-Naan kekkanum nu nenachen ma..

Vaa Mulla,  varnam laam handle panna dnskkum kashtama irukku..

Nee vandha, konjam helpful ah irukkum..

M-Edhu.. naana?

Ab-Aama ma..Unnala mudinja..

Unnoda varnam laam innum kannu munnadiye nikkuthu..

N-Enakke avlo varadhu di..

Vaayen..pls..

The desire within M pushes her to say yes..

She accepts and assures them that she will come the next day..

She goes back home and calls up K..

K-Hello, sollu da..

M-Enna panreenga Kathir?

K-Ipo dhan room ku vandhen..

Naalaiku ooruku vandhuruven..

Afternoon 2 pola..

Yen ma..

M-Inniku naan dance master ah paathen Kathir..

K-Unga dance master ah? Avanga enga inga?

M explains everything..

Naan nalaiku anga morning 10 o clock poganum Kathir..

He is silent..

Hello..

K-Apa naan varapa nee iruka maatiya veetla?

M-Naan 4 o clock vandhuduven..

Please Kathir..

K-Sari paathu poitu va..Saptru time ku..

M-Haan okay nga..

K-Sari, naan vechirava?

M-Hmm sari Kathir..bye..

They disconnect the call..

******
The next day..

M is so nervous..

She chooses to wear a salwar and she takes the pair of dancing bells..

Takes some curd rice and a water bottle..

Gives proper instructions to everyone and leaves the home by 9.30AM..

She reaches the place by 9.50AM..

She consults with Ab about the varnam..

Ab-Nee sollu ma..Edhu easy ah varum unaku?

M-Easy nu illa..

Competition maadhiri ndrapa Sakhiye indha velaiyil will be okay nu nenaikren..

Cos, adhu nalla reach aagum..

Abi-Oru thadava aadu ma..

Corrections irundha solren..

Apram pasangalukku solli kuduthukalam..

M ties her dancing bells after ages..

Her heart whims in ectasy..

The varnam plays..

Sakiyae, indha velaiyil jaalangal seiyaadhe..
Endhan swamiyai azhathodi vaa..

The starting was bit tough..

She picks it up anyways..

The theme of this varnam is, a young maiden who has fallen in love with Lord Venkateshwara (the presiding deity in tirumalai)..

Her lord doesn’t show up and she is miserable..

Her love pangs torture her all the day and night..

She recapitulates all the imaginary amorous adventures that she had with her lord...

She is now in a state of mental turmoil in the absence of her lord and she has no interest in food...

She sends her friend to carry a message to her lord requesting a darshan and also to bring him to her with due honors...

M completely gets involved with the dance..

She turns elegantly, her body in tune with the music and the beats..

She puts her mass into her movement, allowing her to feel exactly where she is and what she is doing..

She adapts quickly to changes in direction, allowing herself to take command, and trusting her own self with her safety and well-being on the dance floor..

She savors the movements, taking the time to complete each step before moving on to the next..

She embellishes her steps, with a wave of the arm or a toss of the head..

Varnam is generally considered as the test to dancers as it infuses both the footwork along with the facial expressions..

It is also a test of the dancers temperament and stamina since a pada varnam goes on for almost 30min with the jathis, swaras and the lyrical part performed alternatively..

She finished it in a way to leave the audience with an enchanting experience..

Ab is so overwhelmed..

Anniku paatha maadhiriye iruku ma unna paatha..

Indha arputhamaana thiramai ah poi olichu vaika paakriye..

M flushes..

She thanks her master gracefully..

The next ten days are supposed to be one kinda hectic days..

The dance and desire are keeping her on toes..

K didn't fail to notice it..

But, he had no chance to ask it..

She comes back home exhausted and sleeps as soon as she reaches the bed..

K-Enna nee ipolaam kandukave maatra Mulla..

His constant complaint is this..

M-Kathir, apdi illa..

Enna nambi kuduthurukanga indha velai ah..

Namma ozhunga seiyanum la..

She pinches his cheeks..

I love you kathir..

Aana, idhu innum oru 4 naal dhana?

Konjam adjust karo..

And then I ll be all yours..

He hugs her and kisses her forehead..

Missing our saturday nights ammu..

I need you badly..

He whines..

M-Just 4 naal dhana..Enakkaga..

He sees the spark in her eyes and gets convinced..

M manages to balance between the dance and Kathir..

The next 4 days fly in a jiffy..
