Happy New Year! 🥳

The fireworks began to explode, making the night sky as dazzling as noon. On the top of a skyscraper, there resides an open-air pub where people are enjoying their nightlife and celebrating the new year.

A large crowd has gathered in one area of the pub, cheering loudly.

All: CHUG! CHUG! CHUG! CHUG! 🥳

A man was standing on a table, rapidly chugging a large bottle of liquor. He appears to have drank several bottles already, but he is extremely steady for that. The ladies were utterly charmed by him, while the guys were feeling jealous. Three men were wandering through the crowd looking for someone.

👨‍💼: 🧐🙄🤯 Dey! Ange paaruda un nonnan aniyaayam panraan! 🏃‍♂️

The three men hurried through the crowd and approached the man on the table.

👨‍💼: Dey Vikrama! Eranguda Keele! 🤪

Vikram (Ashwin Kumar): Alex! Kaiye Vidra! 😝

Alexander (VJ Rakshan): Dey Un Appa Maanathe Vaangureda! 🤪

Vik: Shut Up! 😝

Vikram kept chugging.

Ale: Dey Hayagriva Edhachum Pannuda! 🤪

Hayagrivan (VJ Vishal): Enne ennada panna solre!? Naan appave sonnen inge varavendamnu! Needhane kootitu vandhe, saavu! 😝

👨‍💼: Both of you shut up! 😤

The third man grabbed the bottle from Vikram and began to gulp on it quickly.

Ale & Hay: 😱

Vik: Dhuruva! That's Mine! 😤

Dhuruvan (Dhruv Vikram): Shut The Fuck Up! 😤

Vikram attempted to get the bottle, but Dhuruvan had a solid grip on it. It soon escalated into a fight.

Hay: Dey Ennada Ivanunga Sarakkukku Ipdi Adichikiranunga!? 😱

Ale: Naan inniki sethen! 🙆‍♂️

Suddenly, a man approached and grabbed Vikram by the collar.

👨‍💼: You lost the chugging contest you asshole? 😈

Vik, Dhu, Ale & Hay: 🤨

Vikram, Dhuruvan, Alex and Hayagrivan landed a powerful punch on the man's face, sending him flying across the room.

All: 😱

On the other side of the city, there stood a towering luxury hotel. There was a magnificent penthouse on top of the hotel, screaming its wealth. The penthouse kitchen exuded a pleasant aroma. A young man wearing only an apron and shorts was cooking.

👨‍💼: Che indha naaluperayum pogavitturukkave koodadhu, kandippa edhachum ezharaiye ilu....

☎️

👨‍💼: Dho vandhurichile, inniki enna pretchanaiye iluthangalo? 🤦‍♂️🚶‍♂️

☎️

👨‍💼: Hello, Bharathacharyan speaking. 🙄

☎️: ....

Bharathan (Dhruv Vikram, dual role): Hmm, okay. 🤦‍♂️🚶‍♂️

Bharathan approached the study room and opened the door. He noticed a handsome man in his fifties seated at the desk, going over some files.

Bha: 🤨

🧔‍♂️: Mr Papukutty midnight-le enna samaikiringe?

Bha: Mr Acharyan Kailayanathanukku avaru pillainga enna pannikittu irukkanganu theriyuma? 🤨

Kai: En pullai samaichikitu irukku. 😄

Bha: Naan ille, unga mootha pullaiyum nadu pullaiyum enna pannudhunu theriyuma? 🤨

Kai: 😮‍💨 Ennachi?

Kai: 😮‍💨

(Chennai)

The sun was shining over the city, trying to dry up the moisture from yesterday's downpour. There was a tall office skyscraper in a tech park. A man was strolling down the long corridor, holding a briefcase in his hand.

👨‍💼: Che, new year annikum indhaalu thollai thaangale. 😒🚶‍♂️

He approached a large door and entered in. It was a conference room with five persons attired in suits seated inside. One man was in the majestic seat, puffing his cigar heroically.

👨‍💼: Sir.

He gave the briefcase to the main man. That man unlocked the briefcase and pulled out a little container.

🧔‍♂️: Gentlemen, indha container-le irukkuradhu ennanu theriyuma? 😎🧫

All: 🙄

🧔‍♂️: Idhule irukkuradhu 1 carat adhavadhu 0.2g of Jadeite. Inniki rate-kku kittathatta idhu $3 million per carat pogum. 😎

All: 🤯

🧔‍♂️: But that's not the case, indhamadhiri ethanai ethanaiyo grams enakku therinja oru edathule irukku. 😎

He revealed the presentation slide.

🧔‍♂️: Varuvaan Kaadu, it's a tribal village located in the middle of the thick forest mountains of Madhikettan Solai. This village is 30km away from Kodaikanal. Veliyendhu yaarum andha village-kku pogamatanga and andha village-lendhu yaarum veliye varamatanga. 😎

All: 😯

🧔‍♂️: Totally isolated from the outside world. Ange poganumna 20km by jeep and 10km by foot-dhan. They don't have roads, electricity, drainage, school, hospital and etc. Pachaiya sollanumna 1000 varushathukku munnadi epdi irundhanungalo apdiyedhan innum irukkanunga. 😎

All: 🙄

🧔‍♂️: Avangaloda income, andha kaatulendhu collect panra ellathayum Kodaikanalukku import panni kedaikkira panam mattumdhan. Avanga engeyum pogadhadhukku reason....

He proceeded to the next slide, which revealed two statues.

🧔‍♂️: 700 years-kku munnadi after the Pandiyans defeated the Chozhas, andha Chozha king avanoda people ellathayum kootikitu thapichi indha Madhikettan Solaikku vandhuttan. He promised that he would defeat the Pandiyas and bring back his people to Thanjai and adhuvaraikkum avanga angeye irukkanumnu order pannirukkan. Avan thirumba varavaraikkum andha people angeyedhan iruppanganu promise panni innum angeye muttai viduranunga. 😒

All: 😐

🧔‍♂️: Adhepathina details andha village-le kidaikkale but far-away Thanjavurle oru abandoned temple-le nadandha archaeological excavation-le kedaichirukku. 😎

He pulled out a palm leaf scripture from the briefcase.

🧔‍♂️: Indha olaichuvadiye archeologist Kumaran kandupudichi andha village pathi research pannaru. Nammalukku info kudukkamatennu sonnaru adhan paavapattu avare mele anuppa solliten nethu. 😎

All: 😳

All: 🤯

🧔‍♂️: Indha oru carat-eh avlo expensive-na 100 elephants konjam nenaichi paarunga. Andha Chozha king romba brilliant, yaarum indha kallellam thedi vandhurakoodadhu plan panni andha tribe-eh anga thangavechirukkan. Indha vishayam irukkunu andha tribe-kke kooda theriyadhu. 😎
