'Kabaddi' is one of the
traditional sports in India. It is a Tamilian's game!
It is our native sport! 'Kabaddi' originated on our soil! The youngsters who participate in
'Jallikattu' condcuted on 'Pongal' practice 'Kabaddi' to be
prepared for the game. Today, this sport is
played across India and has also spread to
Pakistan, Bangladesh, Iran and to 32 other countries. The Indian 'Kabaddi'
forum called the Amateur Kabaddi
Federation of India was established in the year 1950. A 'Kabaddi' court
measures 10x13 meters! It is spread across
1400 sqft of land filled with saw dust, coir
and sand to ensure safety. Now, the game has
gained National Level fame through
Pro Kabaddi league Berlin Olympic! Asia Olympic! 'Kabaddi' World Cup! Our native sport has gained
global fame through these championships. You should chant 'Kabaddi' before
you touch the center line. Keep a watch on your opponents! Then, you must try to touch the
first line and lift your other leg. You must chant
'Kabaddi' continuously. In case, you are unable
to touch the first line, you are out. You have
to leave the court! If you happen to touch the second
line, you gain bonus point. Also, if you happen
to touch an opponent using hands or legs,
you get a point. Do you follow?
- Yes we do! In case, your opponents trap you while you set foot on the first
line, as you chant 'Kabbadi' they get an extra point. You are out and will have
to stay off the court. Do you follow? - Yes!
- Okay! Go ahead then. Be brave! Go attack them.
- 'Kabaddi' 'Kabaddi! Kabaddi!' My name is Muruganandam
and I am a Kabaddi player. I come from a town
called 'Ottanchatiram'. Try to touch the bonus
line with your legs! 'The 'Kabaddi' league for men and
women, conducted as part of the' 'the annual temple festival
of Goddess Badrakali' 'Kabaddi' championship is part of
every temple festival in our town.' 'We extend a warm welcome
to player Chella Muthu.' 'Naikaripatti's 'Men
of the soil' group' 'and Kanmani group from Kannivadi' 'are requested to come
to the 'Kabbadi' court.' 'Marimuthu has started the game!'
- 'Kabaddi! Kabaddi!' 'Both the teams are equally
talented'- 'Kabaddi! Kabaddi!' 'and are offering a
tough competition.' 'Kabaddi! Kabaddi!'
- 'Marimuthu is out!' Men of the soil group has
scored two points. 'Kabaddi! Kabaddi!'
- Listen to me. Kanmani Kabaddi group has
scored one point. 'It is a nail-biting game.
Both teams are playing good.' 'This is the last try. Men of the
soil group has won the game!' 'Next, the Farmer's group leader
Mr Chellamuthu will begin' 'the Kabbadi' game

men playing 'Kabaddi'. He is our master Savarimuthu! He brought me up and taught me
to play 'Kabaddi'. He is an ex-militaryman and
spends his pension money for promoting 'Kabaddi'. He seeks
donations from his friends and uses the money towards stay, food and college
fees of the girls team! He makes all of
them stay together and nurtures them to be
stars of tomorrow. Her name is Eswari! During holidays, she works as
a daily labor with her father. Brother, your names.

- She comes first in class, Brother. That's wonderful! Brother, your brother-in-law is
here. - Welcome, Brother-in-law! Hello, Brother-in-law!
- How do you do? I am doing fine.
- What is the matter? Give me an invite. What did you get us, Sister?
- Here! Brother-in-law, we are
having an ear-boring ceremony for my second
daughter on 12th! Lovely! - Please do come with family!
- Oh yes! Definitely! Sister, don't avoid coming on
the pretext of shortage of funds. Take this Rs 2000. Get a nice dress
for my daughter worth Rs 1500! Use the rest for
travel expenses. Why are you hesitant, Sister?
Take it. Uncle, we don't need
your money. Your sister will do what is
required. You may leave now. Look at you retort! I thought your parents had no shame.
But you overcompensate for them. Bye, Hothead!
- Sure, Uncle. Come along, dude.
- Yes! Hey, why did you back
answer him? How are we going to arrange
for the money? All you want is money.
- Don't give her the college fees.

Strongest player in the team! 'Kabaddi' 'Kabaddi' 'Kabaddi' This is her family's profession. She and her brother assists
their parents at all times. Her name is Bhuvana! Her mother is a cancer patient. What happened? She is disconnecting the call. She is very stubborn and
will do as she pleases. What happened, dear?
Where did you go? Mother asked me to call you.
I tried. But you didn't attend! Hey, did you pledge my
jewels or sell it off? By pledging your jewels, we can't
buy four days of medicine too. Here! I've got medicines
for the next six months. Hey, what if someone agrees
to marry you after I die? Will you go without jewels? The groom will offer to buy
me jewels and marry me. So, stop worrying and
have your medicines. Her name is Regina! Look, dear. We can't find
a better groom for her. So, ask your daughter
to get married. Instead, if she choses to
go ahead with 'Kabaddi' I'll ensure to get her hair tonsured
and lock her up at home. Mind you! Convince your
daughter somehow. Sister, look at your daughter.
Dear God! Since her mother forced
her to get married she took such a drastic step! "Crying" Her name is Jeeva. Her problem is
quite common in every household. You sold all our property to
educate and get him a job. Now, your grandson has eloped
and married someone of his choice. He assured to construct a house,
fund your wedding and revive the lost assets, after he
settles down in life. Old woman, you are mistaken.
He promised to construct a house for himself and
fund his wedding. We were too naive to realize it.
We are fools! She is Arulselvi! Her mother is a
daily wage laborer. Her father sprays
pesticides in fields! She is Yogalakshmi. Her dad works as
a priest at a temple. These small donations he gets
is their household income. She lost her mother and is
very close to her father. Her name is Meenakshi. She is our
Savarimuthu sir's daughter. 'Kabaddi! Kabaddi!'
- Whoa! That's brilliant. She has got the moves.
- Splendid! Darling, do you want to play
a separate game with me? Hey Kozhandai!
- 'Kabaddi! Kabaddi!' Ask them to stay quiet. Whoa! - 'Meenakshi didn't
score any points'.' Buddy, please stay quiet.
- 'The first half of the game' 'has ended.' -We have been watching
you. You are being a nuisance. Get going! Get lost!
- He is no fun, dude. - Half time! They look great from back. - Yeah!
The trousers give them good shape. Hey number 5, do you want
ice cream? - 'Team 2 has got 7' Such a nuisance!
- 'The game resumes.' Hey! Hey! - Hold her.
- Whoa! They are moving so fast. Lift her and come.
- 'The game is getting fierce.' Buddy, your girl is here.
- Nah! I am eyeing number 5. Oh! She is the elder one.
- They'll lose. Do you want to bet? Kennedy club gets two points. Hey, this is my girl.
- 'Who is going to win the cup?' Hey, careful, dear.
Don't tear your clothes. 'For the last six years, ' 'Kennedy Club has won the cup.'
- Wonderful game! - Match over! All of you did great! Very good!
- Hear us out, dear. Really good! - Wonderful match.
- Very exciting! Simply superb!- The oldie is
coming to preach us, dude. Welcome, Oldie.
- What is the matter? - Say it. Share your wisdom, Oldie! What is your problem?
- You are! Dude, it is not a great deal to
make noise, call names and whistle from outside
the ground. - Oh! What is? If you are man enough, I dare
you to prove it on the ground. We are ready!
Will your girls agree? Check if they are
okay to compete with us! Hey rogues, if you are really bold
try a game against us. Aren't you ashamed to
compete against women? Dude, they are the ones
who pulled us for a fight. They had argued with us.
So, we got to fight them. Am I right, Oldie?
- Yes, that's fair. - Hey! Give an answer, Oldie.
- Yeah! Don't hesitate. Okay! So, you are ready to contest?
- Yup! Of course!
We are ready! Hey, don't make noise.
- Okay! Go on, sir. I have a condition.
Will you agree to it? We agree! What do you
want us to do? Sir, do you want us to play
without hurting the girls? Sir, don't worry at all. We'll play it safe and ensure not to
touch them inappropriately. Buddy, if you are truly claim
the nobility of your birth promise not to withdraw
in the middle of the game. You should stay for
the entire game. If you agree, I dare you
to come forward. Did you get scared, my dears?
- Not at all, Father. I know you won't be.
You are my children! But I know it is
slightly embarrassing. For almost centuries together,
women have been enslaved by men! Only now, the situation is changing
and women are stepping out. They study, take up jobs
and also take part in sports. So, if we are going to spare these rogues who make fun, they will soon push you back to kitchen and enslavement. Therefore, every move you make in this game, should be equal to you slippering them! You must think ahead and ensure to throw that cheapo out, before he lays his hand on you! Likewise, they won't spare you
when you enter their side. So, even as he approaches to touch you, you must lay your feet on his face! Done!
Cheers! 'Kabaddi! Kabaddi!
Kabaddi! Kabaddi!' 'Kabaddi! Kabaddi!
Kabaddi! Kabaddi!' "Come witness the frenzy
of a proud Tamilian!" 'Look at our fierce
warriors in action!" "The storm ties her hair up
before taking a plunge!" "Three cheers to the Poet Bharathi's
girl, who makes them cringe! God bless you! - I am waiting
behind the temple, dear. Hurry up. I am coming.
Cut the call. Did you buy all the things I asked
you to? - Yes, dear. - Hold this. Darling! This morning, I wrote
a poem for you! Okay! Go on! In the beauty contest,
conducted in college Sorry! Sorry!
I messed the modulation. In the beauty contest
held in college you failed to bag
the first prize! You cried your heart out
lying on my lap! Hopeless idiots! They should have
invited me to judge if you were participating. How is it? Good! Good! Dude, how much money
did I ask you for? Hey, my dad swindles it
if I leave it in my shirt pocket. Hold on! I have reserved
it here for you. How much?
- Rs 300! Hey! Hey! Hold on.
Stay still. Don't move. Stay still.
Don't shake your leg. Look at a jasmine blossom under your crimson red foot! My foot, dear!
- Aunt! I just saw you pick the
flower from ground. Whereas, you say it bloomed
on a rock! There you go! Aunt, not just one flower
an entire garden will blossom in all places she
sets her foot it. What do you think?
- Right, buddy. Why not? You couldn't manage to take a day
off for your cousin's wedding. Mom, I will lose Rs.150 if
he takes half a day off! Correct! - You get going.
- Okay! Yeah! Keep going. Let me see how
the two of you get married. Gosh! She is the one
who calls the shot here. Aunt! I have a poem for
you as well, Aunt. Who says the angels
are found only in heaven? Come, take a look
at my Bhuvana aunt's house! You are good at wordplay! I can't handle any longer. I am
running out of stock. - Bye! Hey Kalaiarasi, all of us are here.
Let's click a picture with Coach! Sure! Bye, sir.
- Thanks! Thank you, ma'am.
- Welcome. Keep quiet! Sir, we have got a
matrimonial alliance for my daughter
from Darapuram! Here is the picture
of the groom. Groom sprays pesticides
in fields for a living. So, we propose to have
the engagement in August, sir. How old is Tamilarasi? Nineteen! What do you do? You are already know it, sir. I want to hear
it from you. I work as a gardener, sir. What did your parents
do for a living? They were also gardeners! What about your ancestors? They were bonded laborers
in a farm, sir. So, you want Tamilarasi also
to be a wage laborer! Am I right? For how long has she
been playing 'Kabaddi'? Eight years, Father. She has been playing
for eight long years! Why? To win a game
and bring honour to our village. When she emerges victorious,
all brothers, sisters uncles, aunts, and all relatives
will come together and take pride in her victory! Having waited for so long,
wait for two more years. She will complete her graduation.
By then, if she also wins a state level match
and bags a trophy, she will be able to get a
government job in sports quota. She will easily earn
Rs 50,000-60,000! You slogged all your life
to educate her. You have sacrificed a lot.
- You have sacrificed a lot. Henceforth, she will earn
and treat you like a queen! Look! I wish to say something
to all of you! I have more faith
in your daughters than all of you! I promise to make
every one of them great! Please trust me. 'Kabaddi! Kabbadi!' Hey Kozhandai!
- Yes, Brother. There are only 30 days left for
the State match. Am I right? Yes, Brother! Only 30 days left.
We need Rs 50,000-75,000
for expenses. Your calculations are wrong! We easily need Rs 1-1.50 Lakhs.
- Greetings, sir. Welcome, Master! Nachiappan, please sit down. Sir, I am no master to you.
Please don't mock me. Hello girls, how are you doing?
- We are fine, Father. I saw them play at
Naikaripatti match! Yes! They told me. Brother, my children wants to
join your club and get trained. So, I brought them here. Very Good! I observed them
play at a couple of matches. Super performance! Very happy to hear this from you.
Let me take leave then. - Bye! Hey, take his blessings. God bless you, dear! What is this, buddy?
Why did they join our club? At least two out of
the seven of us will have to wait out during
the State match. They can't be main players as soon
as they come. We can't allow that. Slow down your hands! Brother! - 'Kozhandai!'
- Tell me, Brother. 'Have the girls
come for practice?' Yes, Brother. They
are practicing here. 'I am on my way to the hospital.
Call me before they leave.' You father has two blocks, dear. One of them is 90%.
We have to operate immediately. Do you have to discuss at home? No, Doctor. We can proceed.
- Okay! Father! Father! Muruganandam, you
take the lead now. 'Kabaddi! Kabaddi!' 'Kabaddi! Kabaddi!' 'Kabaddi! Kabaddi!' 'Kabaddi! Kabaddi!' 'Kabaddi! Kabaddi!' Southern Railway! Southern Railway! - We have
only 50 seconds left. There are only two raiders.
So, don't touch the raider. Let them climb over you! Don't lay your hands
on the player now. Wait! Let them come to the bonus line.
Then, we'll see. Luck is in our favor.
We'll definitely win. Okay? - Okay, sir.
- We'll deal during the tie breaker. Come on! Come on! 'Kabaddi!' 'Kabaddi!' 'Kabaddi!' 'Kabaddi! Let him come in! 'Kabaddi!' Hello, sir! Greetings! Like you had told me Please follow Coach's
instructions, buddy. This isn't gambling
to wait for luck. We must use our talent to
win in sports. - Careful! 'Kabaddi! Kabaddi!' Don't touch him! Wait.
- 'Kabaddi!' Let him go to the bonus line.
- Wait! Wait - 'Kabaddi!' Let him touch the line.
- Hold on! - 'Kabaddi!' I have brought the
match to tie-break, sir. Your team will definitely
win this time, sir. Sir, one minute. What about my posting? Okay, sir. Sure.
Thank you, sir. Thanks! 'Kabaddi! Kabaddi!'
- Wait till he touches! 'Kabaddi! Kabaddi!'
- He hasn't touched yet. Check the time!
- 'Kabaddi!' 'Kabaddi! Kabaddi!'
- Let him play! Wait up. 'Kabaddi! Kabaddi!'
- He can't go in. 'Kabaddi! Kabaddi!'
- Ready! Ready! There's not much time.
- 'Kabaddi!' 'Kabaddi! Kabaddi!'
- Hold him up! 'Muruga!' 'Sudalai speaking!' Tell me, dude.
- 'Where are you?' I've crossed Kodai road.
- 'How much longer?' I will be there in half an hour! Come, Muruga!
- How much should we pay, Brother? We've paid 0.1 million
and need to pay more 0.2 million. Hey, remit this.
- Okay. Where is sir, Brother? How long
is the surgery? - I guess, it will take about three hours. Mother is...
- What happened to her? Don't spoil your health, mom. Mom! Please don't cry. Come in, dear. Be bold, madam. Sir will be
fine soon. Don't worry. Operation was successful.
You can meet him after two hours. Sir! My dear boy,
when did you come? Sit down! Sit down I say! How do you feel now, sir? Just okay. I am unable to
bear the pain. Don't worry! I'll be fit
as a fiddle soon! Muruga! I was thinking only
about our students as they took me inside
the operation theater. I have given a word to
their parents that I would make every
one of them successful in life. The State match is scheduled to
be held next month. Given my condition, I think you have to
stay here for a month and coach them. It would be
great, if you can do that. Start! Spread out and practice. Who is good at playing
offense in your team? I am good, Coach. What about defense? I do, Coach. You will do the
cooking tonight. Meenakshi madam,
please come here. Tell me, Muruga.
- Why are you late? I forgot to fill petrol
for my scooty last night. Did you forget to
eat your dinner? Not me! Coach
wants to know! How dare you mock me, Fatso?
I'll deal with you shortly! I want you to
run 50 rounds! You must run inside
this circle! Easy-peasy!
I'll do it! Hey Gubera! Tell me, Muruga! Madam, you have to run around him
and stay within the circle. Do you follow? Coach! Muruga! Lord Muruga! Brother, record this. Inform
if she stops. - Sure! Go in reverse! He is doing this
on purpose. Let's end warm-up
and start practice. Coach! Hey, what is all this? This is a daily affair, Coach. The boys jump over
this wall at night, have drinks and leave
the bottles here. 'Do you know who they are?'
- 'No idea, Coach.' Everyday, we begin practice only
after we clean this out. Why didn't you file a compliant? Father filed a police complaint
through the school management. But the Police have not
taken any action yet, Coach. Gosh! Wait till she comes in.
- Brother! Brother! What is the matter, Brother?
Why are you always tense? Meenakshi has fainted. She is not pregnant
to faint just like that. She is acting.
I know her very well. Go ahead!
Do as I say! What is this, Brother? Coach asked me to pour water and
inform you to continue running! Muruga! Looks like they were here
last night as well. - Yes, Brother. Meena, wait up.
Don't throw it away. Brother, check our item. Meena, you must drop
it in the middle of the house. I should be able to
hear the sound from here! Hey! Hey! Hey, who are you?
What are you doing? These are the stuff
that your brother left behind in our
ground last night. All along, we didn't
know who it was. Only yesterday, we
realized it is him. Brother, please check if
I've got everything. Henceforth, I will
ensure to bring whatever your brother
leaves behind. Who is she?
- Okay? I don't know, Mother. Fine! How can you be sure
that my son did it? I have a HD clarity video. You can enjoy
as a family! Especially, towards the end your son has painted the walls
with his urine! Bye, Brother! Sir, good morning! Like in Sherlock Holmes,
we heard you used CCTV to crack that we have
been drinking here. Instead, if you had left a message
on the cigarette cover we would have come to meet you
and could have settled amicably! I don't appreciate the
scene you created at my friend's house! We are going to continue
drinking in this ground! I don't care if you go
to Police or Politician. Do as you please! In fact, you can record us
drinking right now, sir. Dude, he might not have
a video phone. He is a big time loser! Give him your phone.
It has good clarity. Oh sure! Wow! I thought you
were innocent people. But you are quite sharp! You've also got
sharp tools! Kids, the carrot approach
works for few! But only the stick approach
works with few others. You fall under
the second category!- Hey! Hey, wait up, buddies. There are plastic boxes, flower
pots, motor, cycle, bricks and many other
fragile items here. Owner has given it
at free of cost. So, we shouldn't break it.
Let's go fight in that corner. Come on! Come on, Boys!
Follow me. Look! There will be damages
when you fight! So, keep aside your expensive stuff
like phone, watch etc. You can't claim damages from me
if they are broken. Muruga, I don't think advising
works with them. They won't realize until
you hit them. Go on! Turn on the video! Start camera!
- Rolling, sir. Action! Hey!
- "You are finished!" You! Hey Idiot, what are you
looking at? Come forward! How dare you? Brother, we are getting late.
Please make it fast. Brother, ask the students to
start practice on the ground! We'll be done in ten minutes.
- Sure, Brother. Come on! Come on! Hey! Come on, buddies! 'Milk Ice Cream! Ice Cream!' Ice cream! Yes, sir? Do you have milk ice cream?
- Yes, Brother. I also want one. - Here, take it.
- Are you kidding me? Why? Do you also want one?
Come here. We've lost the ice cream! Sir, please pay up
for the ice cream! Hand over this Iphone
to the ice cream vendor. Come on, boys!
- Watch out, Brother. Hey!
- You! Gosh! Dude, I didn't do anything.
You hurt yourself! Do you want one? Come on, buddy!
Take a hit! Where are you going?
Come back. Wow! Meenu, take a look.
He looks glamorous. You should have
listened to me. Dude, take your clothes! I won't hit you!
- Hey, leave that sack behind! You might expect number
one to take an angle. But number two in support
will do it. Likewise, when you expect
number five to dash, number four in support
will surprise you! So, each year the strategies change.
We'll discuss it later. However, team cooperation
is the most important factor. Each of you can't have
a mindset of your own! All seven of you must
have the same aim. Previously, you have lost
two State matches. But you must definitely
win this time, as you are the winners of
Uni If you win this State match, you will get an opportunity
to work in Eastern Railway Southern Railway, Police,
Customs and so on. You might even be selected
to play for Indian team. So, please focus and try
to win this State match. Okay? - Yes, Coach.
- Done! That's it! 'Kabbadi! Kabaddi!' Attack!
- She escaped. 'Kabbadi! Kabaddi!
- Surround her! Come forward!
- Stay! Hey, didn't I ask
you to come? She was inside the line.
Why did you leave her hand? Coach is watching. Don't fight.
Let's resume. Don't let her go! I feel really tired! As soon as we go to room
I'll eat and sleep! 'Yeah! I'll do the same.' Coach! The rest of the team members
are avoiding us. - Okay! We are unable to
mingle with them. They feel we are
breaking their unity! So? We wish to exit this club, Coach. Look, you are saying you are
unable to fit in here. What if you get selected in
Tamil Nadu team tomorrow? There will be players
from different districts. What if you are selected
to play for the Indian team? There will be players
from different states! There will be lot
of politics between South Indian and North Indian. Are you even aware of it?
How are you going to manage? So, treat this as an experience
and enjoy it. Get going. No, Coach.
Others might not... Focus on your game! I am sure other players
need your support. You will definitely find
your place in the team. Carry on! Go.
- Okay, sir. Children, you have a life ahead. Ask them to be a little alert
while playing with Tanjavur team. You don't have to worry
about the rest of the teams. Okay? Okay, sir. In the name of teaching
them some new techniques, don't confuse the children. Okay, sir. I will ask them
to play just as you said. I'll leave, sir. Bye, Father.
- Bye, Father. - All the best. Come on. Both of them sat
on the front seat. You saw that? Should I sit on your lap?
- Why are you picking up a fight? Sit that side. Go back.
- Why? You've been creating some problem
since the time you came. Get up... - She is telling you.
Won't you respect your seniors? Why should we go back?
Can't she go? Hey, what are you fighting for? Nothing, coach.
- Come. Jeeva, stop there. What's the problem?
Why were you fighting? Vidya, what has happened? Nothing, coach. Go. There's no team co-operation
at all. Start the bus. 'For the state match
held at Dindigul, ' '32 teams came in all.' 'In the first week, we played with
Tanjavur, Coimbatore and Madurai.' 'And then came a match
between Tanjavur and them.' Is everyone ready? You're famous Indian
Kabaddi players! You must win. Understand? Who is he? Why is he
screaming his lungs out? He is a coach of Baroda team.
They've got him from North India. Never ever...
No plastic cover! Looks like a conman
and you say, he is from Baroda. I feel so, too. Okay? Okay! Okay? Understand? Hey, Subramani!
- Who is that? Subramani?! He said, he was
a north Indian coach. 'The owner saw me.' 'I wonder if he'll
still tolerate me.' All my students, I'm the coach. 50 Parottas! Don't you eat? That is not me. You shouldn't scream. Speak softly. You must win...
- Hey! Softly. You must win. You have to definitely win. Okay? That's better. How did you find out, sir? He owns a roadside Parotta stall. He is bluffing that he is
from Baroda. - Oh! 'For that match, I purposely asked' 'Vidya and Vrunda
to stay out.' Come on...
- Dindigul, 1 point. Kabaddi...
- This side. Hey, careful... Dindigul, 2 points. Tanjavur, 2 point. Dindigul, 1 point. Kabaddi... - Let me go.
- I'll go first. Super tackle!
Tanjavur, 2 points. Hey!
- Super! Tanjavur, 1 point. Don't sit and sleep here. Kabaddi... Kabaddi... Tanjavur, 1 point. Half time! We're leading right now. Maintain this momentum. Okay? If we win, what will I buy
for you? - Sweet balls. Sweet balls. And you? Bangles. Bangles.
And you? - Top up. Top-up on your phone so that
you can speak to your boyfriend. Okay? Where is she seeing? Rascal! I am talking to you
all, what are you looking there at? Do I look like a fool? Listen carefully. I beg of you, not as a coach,
but as a father. My daughter's ear-piercing
ceremony is due. You have got your ears pierced,
haven't you? Doesn't my daughter
deserve that too? I am like a father figure to you. Please play deeply. Okay? We need to win this tournament.
- Yes, we must. Only if we win can we...
- Have the ear-piercing ceremony. For whom?
- Your daughter. Don't backstab me. Kabaddi... Come on, take her! Tnajavur, 1 point. Kabaddi... Kabaddi...
- Come on. What were the two of you doing?
She kept her foot forward... Don't let her go. Corner! Yes!
- Kabaddi... Side wise... Match over! If we lost the next match, we can pack our luggage
and go back home. Why are you keeping your
game so low profile? Why are you wasting your energy? Ask them all to wear a
T-shirt comfortable for travel. We'll leave
after the next match. You should cook only after
you cut your nails. Got it?
- Okay, sir. Coach... Yes, captain? Let us allow Vidya and Vrunda
to play in the next match. Really? Yes, coach. Are your players okay with it?
- I've convinced all of them. Vidya, Vrunda, you're playing
in the main round. Everybody, go and do
some warm up. Okay, coach.
- Go. You may go too. Go. 'The other team...' Sir... The children learnt a lesson
even before you adviced them. No advice can be as good
as one's experience. Now, they have realized it. Wait and see how they play next. Come on... Dindigul, 1 point. Get her! Dindigul, 2 points. Get her! Tap on the line! Dindigul, 2 points. Please come, sir. Mynappan, Dindigul, Tanjavur. Kabaddi... Kabaddi... Stop her! Good round! Tanjavur, 1 point. Yes!
- Dindigul, 1 point. Kabaddi... Bonus plus one,
2 points, Dindigul. Go on.
- Hey... Bonus points, sir. Bonus point!
- No Bonus. I know, it's a bonus point.
- No, it is not. It is a bonus point.
What is this, sir? Did I ask you to give me
bonus for festival Diwali? Subramani...
- Or is it my marriage... What is it? Why do you
keep calling me that? You seem to have found out
my secret. So, what's the big deal? Roadside Parotta maker! Yes, I had a stall
of Parotta on the roadside. So, what? If a tea
stall vendor can be a minister, can't
I be a coach? Of course, you may.
- Then what's the problem? But you bluffed that
you've come from Baroda. That's where you made a mistake. You claimed for a bonus point
that she never hit. That's another mistake. Don't act smart with me
and play games... Where else are we supposed to play? You're blocking the flow. I will block you as well,
once you come out of here. My daughter's ears have to
be pierced. God! Kabaddi... Kabaddi... Hit her! Kabaddi... Kabaddi... Take her! Half time! All you need is one point
to march ahead of them. Kabaddi... Kabaddi... Got her! Don't let her go... Kabaddi... No... 1 point, Dindigul. 1 points, Dindigul. Come back... Match over! Don't worry, we'll come to your
stall to have Parotta. - Torturous! I will take care of your daughter's
ear piercing ceremony. - Thanks. 'Vidya played the State match
and University match very well.' 'And so, she got selected in
the Indian camp for Asian games.' 'All of us were highly elated.' Come on, Coach. Good. 'When Vidya got selected in the
Indian camp, from our club, ' 'sir was extremely happy.' 'Vidya went to the Indian camp
held at Pune after two months.' One point, rider. 0-3, Tamilnadu. 'Vidya really performed
very well in that camp.' Three point, rider. 'Like I expected, Vidya got a chance
in the Indian team'. - Come on. 'But something else that I did not
expect also happened.' Sir, the selection
committee is asking for 2 million from each player. What are you saying? Yes, sir. Mukesh has asked for 2 million
to enrol Vidya in the Indian team. Okay, sir. I will meet him
in person and talk about this. Southern railway player,
Muruganandam. - Yes? Sir is calling you inside.
- Yes. Come. Excuse me, sir. Hey, Muruganandam. Come, please take a seat.
- It's okay, sir. No formalities. Please sit.
It's okay. Order for two tea.
- I'll send it, sir. Yes, Muruganandam. Tell me? Sir, she is Vidya. She had come
to the Indian camp, last week. Of course, she is a bright player.
I know. Good player. Sir, to select her
in the Asian team, you seem to have asked money,
said that assitant. How much did he ask for?
- 2 million, sir. That's correct. 2 million! Sir, she is from a poor family.
Where will she arrange the money from? Muruganandam... Our team has been winning
the last six seasons. We haven't lost even once. This time also, I am very confident
that our team will win. If they win, each
player will get 5 million from the
central government. Job in state government and what
not! How many benefits! I am only asking for 2 million
rupees. Big deal! Okay, Muruganandam... You have come to see me,
all the way. So tell the girl to somehow arrange for 1 million extra. That makes
it 3 million rupees. 'Hey! Superb!
- Match over!' 'Good, well played, Muruganandam.' 'Thank you, sir.
- Good. Well done.' 'Muruganandam...' 'Have you decided to
become a coach?' 'What did I ask you to do
and what have you done?' 'Sir, but we won the match.' 'As a player, you won.' 'But as a coach, I lost.' 'Remember one thing.' 'From now on, you will
never play in my team.' 'This is our last game.' Muruganandam... Do you think that I am
taking revenge? There's absolutely no doubt.
I am taking revenge. Sir, what you're doing...
- Hey, you! Go and do whatever you can. Out! Sir, I know how to get her
selected in the Indian team. Oh, wow! Good. Go! I'm leaving.
- Vidya, come. Yes, I will talk to him.
- Hello, sir. Come in, Alex.
- I'll call at 5:00 PM. How are you doing?
- I'm good, sir. He is my friend, Muruganandam
from Southern Railways. She is Vidya, Kabaddi player.
- Please be seated. Mr Muruganandam... This is my personal advise. Don't
invite trouble from Mukesh in the process of fighting for her.
I think you should step back. 'Just because I spoke on behalf
of Vidya, I was also transferred' 'to an isolated railway station's
ticket counter by Mukesh Ratan.' 'Asian games took place
after two months.' 'The final match was
between India and Iran.' 'India lost to Iran in the finals.' 'Jeez!
- Oh, no! What's this?' 'No!' 'Millions of fans of Kabaddi
in India were disheartened' 'on that day
and they felt cheated.' 'Because of that humiliation
and India's defeat, ' 'the step she took...' 'India has never lost in Kabaddi
for the past 25 years.' 'But now, India lost in the finals.' 'Two months ago, I
got selected in the Indian camp. I
performed so well.' 'To select me in the list
of final players, ' 'the selection committee
asked me for 3 million rupees.' 'I couldn't arrange that.' 'Although I was talented, I was
rejected because I had no money.' 'I am taking this decision for
every deserving and talented' 'sports person.' 'Some people might feel, I'm a
coward to have taken this decision.' 'After my dreams
have been shattered, ' 'I don't feel there's any point
living anymore.' 'The reason why I am posting
this video is, ' 'I want people and the media
to know what happened with me' 'and change the current head of
the selection committee, Mukesh.' 'My sister is also
a Kabaddi player.' 'We are twin sisters.' 'Vidu, take care of dad.' 'Sorry, dad.' Oh, no! What have you done?
- My child... Look at what has she done! Why did you do this? Come quickly... What is it? - 'Because she wasn't
selected in the Indian team, ' Vidya consumed poison. What are you saying? Vidya, Father is here. You think you're a revolutionary! If you die, will things change here? Get one thing clear. In this world, whoever has
worked hard, earned fame and won, were all rejected once. The word warrior can be
heard only in two fields. One is in the battleground
and the other in the playground. It isn't a big deal if your death
gives life to few other people. You must live, struggle, work hard, fight and win to be
an inspiration to many others. That's the sportsman attitude. That girl was so fond of Kabaddi
that she decided to die. Spare us, sir. We'll go back. I will get my daughter married,
at least by taking a loan. We don't her to play Kabaddi, sir. I run my family with whatever little
people offer at the temple. I sent my daughter here thinking,
she'll get a job in sports quota. But they're asking money
even for that, sir. Excuse us. Hello.
- Sir, Vishwanath speaking. Yes, tell me. The Southern railway
player, Muruganandam... Yes?
- He wants to see you, sir. Why? - He wants to
get back in the team, sir. Muruganandam... It doesn't look nice to see you
standing with folded hands. I don't like it. Your arrogance
is what I like in you. This way... Correct, sir. My arrogance is
my best quality, sir. I came to see you now,
not to request you to take me back
in your Kabaddi team. I am here to take revenge. Why are you shocked, sir? There's no place for any doubt. I am here to take revenge! Within next three months, you won't be seen here,
at this post. Just relax. Next Friday, the All India Match
is going to be conducted in Delhi The Sports Minister
will be visiting. The entire media will be present. So will Mukesh Ratan be. That's the right place
to expose him, sir. It sounds good. But you need a team to play there. What do you mean, sir? I'll speak personally to them
and convince everyone. You can try. Are you happy with the job
you are doing currently? Or will this job put an end
to all your financial crisis? Answer me. No, coach. They're asking for
money wherever we try. I don't deny that fact. Let us change the wrong
practice of asking for a bribe. Jeeva, since how many years
have you been playing Kabaddi? It's been eight years, coach. In these 8 years, you've gone
through so many injuries and pain. When you wore a half
pant and played Kabaddi in the beginning,
weren't you shy? So many people would
have eyed with a wrong intention and
spoke ill of you. Didn't you overcome
all that to play? Stating such reasons, if you
quit playing Kabaddi forever... I don't understand this. A true sportsman, if unable to
realize his dream in the sport, still continues to
stay in the game being an umpire, a
coach or groundman. He won't run away and hide,
like you all. If you all quit the game
at this stage, not a single girl from this
village in the next generation will be allowed or sent
to play Kabaddi. You did not start
playing aiming to buy a bungalow, car or
travel by plane. You were here to play to
showcase your talent in the game. You practised thrice a day
without fail, be it an auspicious day or festival.
You never watched TV, or roamed around in parks
and theaters with your boyfriend unlike other girls
and kept practising in the ground. Who, if not you deserve to win? A true sportsman is
the one who gets up without showing his
pain after he falls. That's the sportsman attitude. No, coach. You will have to
convince our parents too. Didn't you send your daughter
to play, for her happiness? If you don't send her to play again, she'll die as a failure, without
being able to achieve her goals. There are people in the field
who are handicap. There are people who even
lost their lives. But did that stop everyone
from playing? Your daughter is going to
play in Delhi not just for herself. But it is for every girl who is
below the poverty line in India. Sir, what happened with Vidya...
- What are you talking? I don't deny the fact
that Vidya decided to end her life. Why did she take that decision? Did she decide to die, because
she did not get the opportunity? She decided to die
so that girls like your daughter get
an opportunity. First, understand that. We need to win the match in Delhi. Only then can we get
Mukesh dismissed from the selection committee. Your daughter is born to win. She will definitely win. Trust me and send her. I will wait for your daughter
at the ground, tomorrow morning. I believe that you will send her. Bye.
- I'm leaving. We're going to Chennai tonight
by the 9:00 PM bus. From there, we'll go to Delhi
by Duronto Express. Okay? We have a match
on the coming Friday. We need to win. Hasn't Kalaiarisi come? It's her marriage today, coach. Sir, the tears are not
because I got married. But it's because I am overwhelmed
as I had a love marriage. You just tell me
when is the match. But your husband...
- My husband? Hey, come here. - Go, she is
calling you. - I am coming, dear. Yes, I'm coming. Don't address me so casually
at least in public places. He is my coach. Seek his blessings.
- Sir... - It's okay. Didn't I tell you about
my match on Friday in Delhi? I'll return in 10 days.
- Go ahead. Sir, you may take her. No, the match is on Friday...
- She told me about it. Take her. The match is on Friday. But we need to leave tonight. Tonight?
- Yes. That's not a problem, sir.
You may take her. Well, it's your wedding night
and so... I had already decided to wait
for her, so how does time matter? I can wait for my Kalaiarisi
even for life, sir. Poetry! When I was a child, my grandma sent me to the grocer
to buy rice, the grocer asked me if I wanted
boiled rice or par-boiled one. I told him, I want only
Kalaiarisi. (Arisi means rice) Don't talk rubbish.
It's your wedding night. Sir, it's my first night
and not yours! Take her along, sir.
You may take her. What will you tell the family?
- Am I answerable to your family? Idiot! What will you tell
your family if they ask you? My family... Wait,
let me think. Sir! Kalaiarisi made me
promise as children, we'd go to Kodaikanal
on our wedding night. Did she do that even before
she was an adult? I'm trying to make up a story,
don't break the flow, sir. I will bring her at 6:00 PM
under the pretext of going there. Believe me, sir. Please... I do believe you. Is your name Rajakumaran? What? There's not even a banner. How did you learn my name, sir? Any man who supports his wife
like this is a Rajakumaran (Prince). Really, sir? I'm so proud.
- Yes, you should be. Are you happy now?
- Thank you, sir. You've made the right choice. Kalai... Where are you going? Our wedding night is cancelled,
but there are more rituals. I'll drop them and be back. You're going by foot
to see them off, aren't you? Yes, of course.
- Go ahead. Aren't you going? - He got irritated
as his wedding night is ruined. Go. Keep going. He is annoyed as he cannot
celebrate his wedding night. Only if both the bride and
groom are present can that happen. How can you change the customs? People have no job
to earn a living and they're talking
about honeymoon. Rajakumaran, welcome.
- Hope we aren't late. No, you aren't.
You brought her on time. Play carefully. All the best.
- Okay. Even the next generation will
talk about your sacrifice. Sir, they need not talk
about it. I just want Kalai to
speak with me over the phone for a few
minutes every day. Rajakumara, why only a few
minutes. I'll ensure that she speaks with you for two hours. That's enough, sir.
- Princess, get inside the bus. Go ahead. - Bye.
- Get inside. Kalai, take this.
- Give it here. Keep this money as well.
- What is it? - Take it. - Enough. Take this. - Give.
That's enough, you go. Why the ring? - Here.
- That's our engagement ring. Wear this. - I've done this
many times. Get back, now. We united the lovers who
left their home and eloped. But our pair that the entire village
blessed, you separated us. Ticket, please. Here's my ID. Sir, Kennedy Club
from Tamil Nadu. Kennedy Club, Tamil Nadu. How many members?
- They're a winning team. Your keys.
- Thank you. Did you take all the bags?
- Yes... Come. - The team from Tamil Nadu,
don't give them the key so soon. Let them wait for a while.
Make them wait, let them be tired. Okay. Sir, there's a small
confusion. Please give me the key back. I'll allot the rooms to you.
Please wait for five minutes. What is it? Hello, sir. Yes, Manoj. Muruganandam is here as
the coach of Tamil Nadu team. Do just as I say. Sir...
- Hold on. You fatso, when will we
get the keys? Five minutes. - Your five
minutes are never ending. Who is the Tamil Nadu
coach here? - It's me. You're called inside
for a coach meeting. Are you kidding?
They've made us wait since an hour without
giving us the key. None of us have freshened up.
How can I come for the meeting? What can I do, sir? You can come
inside and talk to the committee. Good morning, everybody.
- Good morning, sir. I'm sorry... There's an announcement. The schedule that was for 5 days
will now be completed in 3 days. And the league matches have
now been changed to Knock-out. Sir, what's this? You suddenly changed it from
league to knock-out! That's not in our hands.
We had to adjust as per the
Ministry's program. Anyway, we had sent these details
to you on your mail. So, whoever has not
read that, I'll just read the schedule
again for you. First match, Kerala Vs Tamil Nadu. Second match will be
Between Delhi and Haryana. 6:00 PM, Karnataka versus...
- Sir... Please excuse me. We've traveled about 2000 kms
to reach here, sir. We haven't rested, eaten
or slept enough, sir. How will we play if the match
is just after two hours? All the players are tired. Even the Kerala team has arrived
at the same time. They have no complains. We can cover in the next match
if we lose in a league match. But that's not possible in
a straight knock-out match. We take three days to plan
how to play a league match... Mr Muruganandam... We didn't call you
to decide if the match will be league
or knock-out. The decision has been made. All the matches will be knock-out. If you have a problem, you can give
a walk over and walk out of here. Here.
- Why is he giving only a mug? There are no buckets. So, adjust.
- Bucket? To take a bath. There are no more buckets. Adjust with this.
- What's he saying? Okay. Hey, you come here. Come here. Try and see if
you understand what he is saying. We don't have any buckets.
There are 6 mugs... Anyway, Tamil Nadu team.
You will be going tonight. So, adjust.
- Yes, we're Tamil Nadu team. We all are from
the Tamil Nadu team. You're right. You will be going.
- Good. Are you going to Tamil Nadu? Which temple? Madurai
Meenakshi temple or... Not me. Why are you irritating us if you're
planning to go in May? I will... He says, we'll lose the match and
go back at night. So, no buckets. He is asking us to go back
home and take a shower. Sir...
- What did they say? It's not a league match.
Straight away, knock-out. The first match is between us
and Kerala, and that too at 4:00 PM. What? Are they doing this purposely? Yes, they are. Okay, let's go. Come, let's have lunch. There's hardly any time for
the match. Don't eat a heavy meal. I am so hungry, haven't eaten
anything since morning. Make up for it at dinner.
Wait till then. Father, me too? These rules are not meant
for you. You can eat as you please. Okay, Father.
- Serve it to me. Serve some more. Not this, move on. I'll give it to you. You go. Give me some chicken. Hi, boss. Did you think of
roaming around Delhi, click few pictures and go back? Poor man! He will go back tonight. Did the team managers
ask you anything? - No, sir. You need not worry at all.
All arrangements have been made. In knock-out, Tamil Nadu, Karnataka,
Pune, Orissa, Bihar, Rajasthan, Jammu Kashmir and Mumbai,
all these teams will be out. Okay, sir. - In the semi finals,
we'll have Haryana, Punjab, Delhi and the Eastern Railway team. Make sure that the quarter
final of knock-out... How many matches have we won,
is not important. Mr Mukesh has strictly said that if we win in
this tournament, all of you will get a chance
to play in Common Wealth games. Listen, everyone here are talking
that we'll lose in our first match. We must win one-sided.
No 18:20 or 30:18 business. You should be leading
directly with 30 or 40. We must catch the attention
of all of them. You fool... We've come to play in All India
level for the very first time. They don't know our strengths. We should not show them our
strength right in the beginning. No, but...
- Shut up! Do as I say. Jeeva, understand the situation. We are not here to win the trophy.
We're here to prove our talent. You should be just as alert
and careful as you're while lighting the first match stick
even while lighting the last one. They changed all the league matches
to knock-out as soon as we came. I wonder how they're going to
trouble us next. The media will be watching. When we're playing
our game, we must grab the attention
of the supporters. So, we need to win one-side. Okay, coach. Ignore sir's advice.
- Okay. Go and tell everyone.
- Okay, coach. (Music too loud) (Music too loud) Kerala team's captain is taking
the first lead and here's 1 point. Tamil Nadu captain striving
for a point for her team. Ask the girls to waste time.- Okay.
- Continue playing one-sided. Why did you send her?
- She went voluntarily. Time out! Substitute change. You go in. Maintain
the leading position. What did you all think? Didn't they ask for time? Will you play as you like? Sorry, Father.
- What?! Father, don't beat her. Everyone played as per
the instructions given by coach. He called the captain and decided
to play a one-sided game. Shut up! Have you outgrown me,
that you dared to go against me? Get out! Get out of here! Sir, madam is on the line. Coach... I told everything to
Meenakshi now and she said that to
Father by mistake. Sorry, coach. This is no big deal. Sir has kicked me several times
when I was a child. I forgot all that and kept moving. Don't keep this in heart. Play just as I told you.
Look, there he comes. Did sir send you to pacify me?
- Yes, sir. Come. Give him way. Okay, we'll sort out things
and be back. - Come, let's go. Go, sort things out. I don't know how you will
manage things, Manoj. But in the quarter final, Tamil Nadu
should be playing Delhi. How can Tamil Nadu
and Delhi have a match? They're in
the other group. I don't care, Manoj. Don't lecture me, just do it,
like I said. Quarter final has to be
Tamil Nadu and Delhi. Tamil Nadu has to lose. As per the schedule,
we were to play Maharashtra in the
quarter final. Why is he asking us to
play with Delhi now? We need to win three matches.
Quarter, semi and the finale. No matter who we play with.
We must win. Please hold on, sir. Did they ask you to play
the quarter final with Delhi? Yes, they did.
- In order to defeat you, all the umpires from Delhi are planning to whistle
one-sided so that you lose. Be alert. Play carefully. Okay, sir. I'll manage. Sir, there's one more left... There's time.
Let's have a re-match. We need to be careful. I'm sure,
he has some plan behind the party. Play carefully. Sir... Delhi Secretary Manoj
just informed me. Mukesh Rathod is treating
the four teams in Semi-final for lunch
tomorrow at a star hotel. Hurrah!
- All she wants is food. How is this one? Sir, does this suit me?
- Is this okay? Is this good?
- What about this? How about this one?
- Brother... We are not going to attend
a local hotel. We're going to Taj Hotel. We cannot go there wearing
these kind of dresses. What are you doing there? If this isn't good, buy me
a new one. - Okay. Have you carried another dress? Muruga...
- Sir? How much cash do you
have balance? Around Rs 19000. Forget about it. Where were you? Why are you
so late? The function is over. You told me, the function
was at 12 noon. The function was from 11 to 11:30. It's over now. Anyway, you're here only to eat. Go ahead, have lunch. What did he say? That we're late and since we're
here, we can have lunch and leave. He purposely called us late.
Sir, come, let us leave. Let us go. Hold on. They are all here. Let them
at least have some juice. Not just juice, I am hungry... I'm very hungry, Father... Don't embarrass me,
you glutton. Is food important
or your respect? Food is more important.
- Hey... Food is more important. She must be...
- Hello, Mr Muruganandam. Good to see you. How are you?
- I'm good, sir. Manoj told me that you're
the Tamil Nadu coach. I'm so happy. Good. I know you would've got the news. You haven't had lunch as yet,
have you? Go ahead, please have it. All of you, go.
- Go and have lunch. - Excuse me. I'm Savadamuthu, founder
of this Kennedy club. From Ottinchitram,
a small town... - Yes. From Tamil Nadu. Can I have a few minutes with you? Of course, sir. I am all yours. From an ordinary player,
you've reached this position. Of course, you would've faced so many
struggles, hurdles and pain. You would have overcome
all this to reach here. At which point, you got corrupted? Sure, sir. I'll answer this question, but I
want to ask you another question. In which posting is there no corruption? No, please enlighten me, sir.
I would like to know. If we go to a star
hotel for a party or function, we should not
go in a small car. The treatment and response we'll
get from there will be secondary. We should not attend
a function or party if we don't
have decent attires. We'll have an inferiority complex
and lose our confidence. You are not getting it...
- You twerp. The children who have come
hail from poor families. But they're best players.
Why did you ask money from them? That's what I want to know and
you're talking about car and attire! Are you mad?
- Hey... Yes, I'll be there. Sir, one who makes
a mistake without knowing will listen
to your advice. But he does it intentionally.
Why waste your energy on him? Have it. Srimati Indira Gandhi memorial's
25th year glowing trophy... None of you have to go to their
court and score any point today. Play defence. Try for third ride. Play carefully without
any injuries. Okay? Sir, the secretary wants to
see you. - I'll be there. Okay, now warm up, everybody. Come. Children, please wait. Muruganandam is a very good person. He never thinks ill for anyone. I am emotionally attached to
him and I also respect him. Due to his inexperience, I thought he made a few
mistakes while playing yesterday. But it's not like that. For his own selfish reasons, he is asking you all to lose
in today's semi-final match. Why, Father? Mukesh Rathod. Mr Savadumuthu... Sir... Sir, in the canteen, I heard the north Indian
referees talking something. What is that? 'Old people fail to understand practicality and
talk about justice.' 'Anyway, now coming to the point.' Muruganandam... In the Common Wealth games that
will follow, I can get two people from your team to play
in the Indian team. Okay? Okay, well... 'I can get a job for two of them,
in the Souther Railways.' 'I'll make you the assistant coach
of Indian team in Common Wealth.' 'What do you want me to do, sir?' 'I want you to lose in this Semi.' We aren't here to play Kabaddi
for ourselves. So many girls who live under
the poverty line in India, we're playing for such girls. The two matches
that we played earlier, you played following his
instruction. And I am aware of that. In the next two matches, you will play as per
my instructions. Okay? Okay, Father.
- Okay. The semi-final match is between
Tamil Nadu and Haryana. You can see a match between
the top-players on the ground. Scoring the first point of her
team. Kennedy club... Amazing! Kabaddi... Scores another point! Bonus plus one, Tamil Nadu. Here's a point... Harayana gears up... They've surrounded her... Well played by Tamil Nadu player. Will she manage to... No! Tamil Nadu scores
another point. Cross arm, right side. I'm repeating, don't play
defence. Be careful. In the final match, none of their players should
have the strength to even stand. Put weight on the players, Suresh.
Do you understand? Yeah.
- Okay? Good. Play just defence. Haryana players on the ground. Captain is... Umpire gives a warning to Haryana. Mother! Hey, no! Did the pain subside now? My leg is hurting badly. Hello... Yes, sir? Okay, I'll tell him. Muruganandam... The minister is on his way, they're
calling the girls to the ground. Okay, let us go. What's your problem? I told you all to play defence. I knew that the other team would
put pressure on you. Why didn't you understand
their tactics? Had you played as
per my instruction, you wouldn't be injured. If we played following your advice,
we would have lost. You would have lost? We know everything. In the greed of being
the Indian team coach, you finalised a deal with Mukesh
Rathod. Father told us about it. Hey! Do you know
what happened the other day? 'What do you want me to do, sir?' 'You should lose in our Semi.' 'What if I refuse to?' 'You won't be on the ground,
for the final match.' 'It's a promise.' 'You didn't get it?' 'My team has been the winning team
since last four years.' 'Railway team will reach
the finals.' 'Being a railway player,
you cannot be the coach' 'of a team that's playing against
the railway team. That's a rule.' 'How can you be their coach in
the finals then, Muruganandam?' 'I can coach them if I resign
from my job. Can't I?' 'Why are you staring? I came here
only to get back at you!' 'You'll again ask for
money before you select players for
Common wealth.' 'Talented ones won't
get an opportunity.' 'India will again lose.
If India has to win, ' 'I can even quit my job,
if required.' 'See you in the field.' 'I mean, we'll meet
in the ground. Okay?' Sorry, coach.
- Sorry. Tamil Nadu is gearing up
for their final match... Get ready quickly and... Yes, sir?
- Speak with your daughter. Dad, we're going to play
the final match. Bless us, dad. Dear... When you were born, you were
born as twins giving us double joy. Let me tell you something now. Keep it in mind. I did not allow you both
to play Kabaddi just because you loved it.
Relatives think I ruined your lives. Achieve your goals and prove to everyone
that I have raised you well. Okay?
- Okay, dad. Win the match. Play carefully, don't break
your legs or hands. Okay? You challenged very boldly,
now it's time to win and come back. Okay, dad. Every time, selection should be
in favor of north Indians alone. We have a challenge to prove at,
in front of the media this time. If we lose to Tamil Nadu, we'll be defamed by the media. Keep that in mind. Sir, what are you saying? They stand no where. They'll regret having come to
the finals and lose miserably. Show it in your actions.
Get it? - Okay. Okay. Okay, dad.
- Coach, here. Your parents are truly great. All of you are so fortunate. Which parent can allow his daughter
to wear a trouser and play? Your parents have faced
more embarrassment and humiliation
than what you have. Truly, they are great. When they allowed you to
play the game, they did not do so because you'll
be very successful. They sent you only
for your happiness. Not just for you, but you must win
for your parents as well. For every sports person, mental
pain is worse than physical. In each of your mind, there should be this aim
to only win. Got it?
- Yes, coach. Go. Indira Gandhi memorial
girls Kabaddi, semi final... A huge crowd has gathered
to watch this match. People are still flocking in,
so are important persons. Did you note it properly?
- Yes, I did. Have you exchanged
your T-shirts and worn? The opposition team will only
see the number of your jersey. Interchange their names to
match with their jerseys. - Okay. Both the team's players are now
anxious to show their strength. Who is going to be the winning team? To inaugurate this match,
we have with us... Our honorable Sports Minister... We request the players
to greet him. Try for the north...
- Yes, sir. Captained by Tamil Nadu's
station coach... - Four. Now, the Indian team coach,
Mr Mukesh Rathod will introduce both the teams
to the Minister. Hello.
- Hi. Hello. Hi.
- All the best. All the best.
- Hi. All the best. Muruganandam... Kennedy Club, coach. They have no stamina
to even stand. How are you going to win
the finals with these players? Weren't you here to take
revenge on me? Muruganandam, all the best. What did he say?
- That we'll lose. - Good luck. Here's the first ride... Selvi, the captain has... Well done! Amazing effort
by the captain. 1:0. Will Tamil Nadu manage to defeat Indian Railways team? No, no... Tamil Nadu player, Arulselvi
goes to attack. Will she manage
to score any point? No! She could not manage any! She could not pull through... One point, eastern railway. Eastern railway's captain
pounces to attack. What an amazing performance! Next... Kabaddi... They've surrounded... One point, eastern railway. Super tackle! If Indian railway's
player surrenders now, Tamil Nadu will score
two more points. No, they failed. Tamil Nadu player goes. Will she score a point
before she returns? First point scored by
this Tamil Nadu player. Super tackle again. Tamil Nadu player goes again. Amazing tackle! What a dive! Super tackle again. Even this time, the Indian
railway team managed to overpower. Indian railway's player
in the field of Tamil Nadu. Gambheera Rai... After scoring the first point
for Tamil Nadu, here she goes again. One more point. A super tackle once again! Well tackled! Super tackle, I must say! Tamil Nadu player who scored
the first two points is here again. On the ground, we can see... Attack! Easter railway displays
a very good performance. Why are you playing this way?
- Time out! Why did you... They're trying to injure
you physically... Don't try to score points in
the side. Play defence. Okay? Okay, coach. Pull to one side. Are you feeling uneasy? Did you take your medicine? Listen... The medicine is in the room.
Go and get it. Okay, sir. Kolandai, come here. He will take too long to
go and get the medicine from room. You go and bring it. Go. How much time do we have?
- Last five minutes, coach. I'm sorry. To send you away from here, I lied to you. That's when I learnt the truth. Now, I am back to life. I feared that in the greed of
becoming the Indian team coach... I believed him when he said
you were bribed. It is now that I
learnt the truth that you quit your job...
Jeeva told me... I don't know...
We have only five more minutes. Even if we take ten rides,
we can score maximum 20 points. They will anyway win
with two points leading. No, we can win, sir. Substitute change.
Hema! First... No. Moni, come here. How can Moni...
- No, she'll play well. Coach, Moni? Moni can do it. All of you
are tired. Moni is energetic. No one knows how she'll play
and that's our plus point. We have five minutes. Moni, you get 24 seconds for
a ride. If you touch them and return in ten seconds,
we'll earn 15 rides. Everyone, stay alert and play. Let anyone come to attack,
oust her within ten seconds. Don't bother about
the 2 points that we'll lose.
We'll gain 15 defence. Don't let anyone touch you.
Just get her! I have faith that we can
definitely win. Do you believe so? Yes or no?
- Yes, coach! This is a sport for everyone here,
for us, it's our life. We'll win. Go! Yes, the game begins... Superb! One point, Tamil Nadu. Eastern Railways, all out.
Tamil Nadu... Hey! Kabaddi... Yes! Tamil Nadu, 2 points. Brave girls, displaying
their valor... Super tackle! 3 points, Tamil Nadu. Yes! 3 points, Tamil Nadu. Super, guys! Eastern Railways is leading... The match is getting exciting. Eastern Railways marching
towards victory... Time out. Try to score at least 5. Eastern railway player comes
for a ride to Tamil Nadu... A super tackle ride. She scores... What an exciting game! The last player is going now... If they catch her, Eastern
railways can score 3 points. Catch! She survived... 30:30. The last 25 seconds that will
determine who the winner will be. Will the Eastern Railways
who were champions for 4 consecutive
years bag it again? Or will the trophy go into the hands
of Tamil Nadu, the first timers? This could be the last
ride of this interesting match. This ride... Will it earn the last one
point needed to win? Foul!
- Tamil Nadu player is out! No, the Tamil Nadu player pounces
on the other, ensuring victory. Kabaddi... Kabaddi... Kabaddi... Kabaddi... Kabaddi... Kabaddi... Kabaddi... Kabaddi... Kabaddi... Kabaddi... Kabaddi... Kabaddi... Kabaddi... Kabaddi... Kabaddi... Kabaddi... Yes! For the first time, super tackle earns
Tamil Nadu 2 points. Eastern Railways
loses to Tamil Nadu. What a magnificent victory!
32:31! Tamil Nadu wins with
one leading point. Well done! Congrats. Nice. Congrats. Well played! Very nice. Congrats. I was so engrossed
in the game. - Thank you, sir. Congrats.
- Thank you, sir. Congrats.
- Thank you, sir. Sir, may I please talk to you? Sir is busy with a
meeting actually. You can talk to him later...
- No. Please come, sir.
- No. Sir, please... I'm an Ex-serviceman. You have to... Sir, please come... Sir, Kabaddi is the ancestral
game of Indians. We've been winning
the championship for the last 25 years,
internationally. Asian game, Common Wealth game,
World Cup, everywhere! But... Last year, in the Asian games,
we failed! Why? You should know the reason, sir. All because of this kind of
corrupted man, Mukesh! Sir, this man has actually
got it all wrong. Actually...
- Let him speak. Hey, stop... He is lying, sir. Sir, that's not true... If he takes money and select
a player on the basis of that, India is bound to lose, sir. Vidya, come here. You appreciated her as the best
player a few minutes back. She ranked first in the Indian
team selection. He asked for 3 million rupees
to select her in the team. Sir, this is utter nonsense. He dismissed him from his job
as he questioned against it and also her. We are poor people,
living under the poverty line. We want to save
the nation's respect. Just because we couldn't
pay the amount he asked, many talented players like her are rejected. You know that? What he did is not just corruption, but betrayal to our country. If cheats like him stay
for ten more years in the game, our traditional game, Kabaddi
will be extinct, sir. I request you, sir. Please get rid of such people
from that post. Save Kabaddi, our ancestral sport. Sir, what action will you take
on Mukesh Rathod? Yes, if they can prove
their point, I will definitely take an
action against him. In the Asian Kabaddi sport
last year, the team's chief asked for bribe
and that has been proved. The Supreme court
has ordered the Indian Kabaddi association
to dismiss him from his post. Following this, Joseph
Anthony from Kerala has been appointed
as the new coach. He is an Arjuna award winner
in the year 2012. 'Seven people from
the club got a job.' 'I was offered the post
of a coach by the Railways.' 'I thought rather than
coaching talented players who got the
opportunity, ' 'it's better that I coach' 'new children under the poverty
line who wish to play the sport.' Muruganandam, you
could have won in the first round. I'll come
back in your life. I will use your own players
to win in the second round. This is my challenge.
- I'm glad. See you in the ground, again!
