Vegullamai Kural 5
Listen, Why we're all gathered here today is because..
Our Rajalingam from big farm, has complained that
his maid Meenakshi's son, Sureshkumar, stole 1000 rupees from his son, Nagalingam..
What do you say ?
No, sir..
My son would never do these kind of acts..
So, Are you saying that my son is lying ?
Sir .. just to know..
why did you give 1000 rupees to your son ?
Today is my son Nagalingam's birthday..
So, as a gift I gave him a thousand rupees note..
Why, shouldn't I?
Rajalingam .. he didn't mean it in a wrong way..
he just meant to ask why would a small child need 1000 rupees..
Oh that ? He told me about the school tour..
That's just for that ...
Ok .. ok ..
Nagalingam..
where did you keep the money that your father gave you ?
Sir .. I tucked in the book I was studying, sir.
Once I'm done studying,
I just thought I could take it later..
Who were all there at your home, then ?
only this woman was there, working, when my father gave me the money..
Then her son came in searching for her..
Suresh ..
Did you go there at that time ?
Yes, sir..
My sister fell ill at home..
So I went to tell that to my mother..
Okay .. who did you see there first ?
I saw Nagalingam..
and asked him to call my mother..
He closed the book that he was reading
and brought my mother..
When I told her the matter
Mom panicked and told Rajalingam sir and then we immediately came home.
Ok .. ok ..
Nagalingam ..
Tell me what happened there with details..
Sir, when I was studying at home
dear..
Here's your coffee..
Are you studying, dear ?
Yes, I have my exams next week..
Good, study well..
Oh yeah .. You told me you wanted to go to some tour...
Yes, dad..
As soon as the exams are over, we have a tour..
Ohhhhhhhhhhhh.. How much should be paid?
750 rupees, dad..
mmmm
here.. keep this..
Why re you giving me 1000 rupees, dad ?
keep it, dear.
Also it's your birthday today..
mmm.. Your mom would've given you a great feast if she was alive..
But, she died as soon as you were born..
Okay .. Take care of the money.. Hand it over to your teacher tomorrow..
I've got some work..
I'm going to the room ..
okay, dad..
And at that time came Suresh..
looking for his mother to my house..
Nagalingam ..
Nagalingam ..
Call my mom
Why ? She just came..
No .. my sister is sick at home..
She's burning hot..
My father Isn't here..
That's why..
Ok okay ..wait..
Having said that, i went in to call his mother..
Once I told her the matter, she went to my father to get his permission..
and left the house with Suresh..
When I opened the book again to study..
there was no money..
Sir
This is what happened
Suresh ..
What do you say ?
Sir .. What Nagalingam said only happened..
but did he really keep the money in the book is my doubt..
Nagalingam ? Suresh's telling this ?
Sir .. I really did keep it in the book..
I remember the page too ..
Really ? What page was it ?
It is between 25th and 26th.
Sir .. he's wrong and I can prove it to you right now..
look at this, sir..
Page 25 and page 26 are on the same sheet ..
Then how could he have kept it in between 25 and 26?
Sir .. let me tell you a truth ..
yes ?
We are in the same class..
As I got more marks than him in the last Quarterly examination..
I got the first rank.
So, I became the class leader..
That's the jealousy,
This is why he blamed us..
With what we've investigated here,
Nagalingam's blame of thieving his money on Sureshkumar is a lie..
So, Rajalingam has to pay 10000 rupees to The Panchayat as a fine..
And Nagalingam has to apologise to Meenakshi and Sureshkumar for false labelling them.
This as The Panchayat's order.
At the same time, we request to consider this a chance to realise Nagalingam's mistake..
by both Nagalingam and his father, Rajalingam..
Please forgive me for filing a false complaint, sir..
Here
Suresh .. I'm sorry ..
I behaved so bad as i was jealous on you..
I won't do anything like this again..
It's okay.. Leave it, dude..
We'll be good friends hereafter..
