Up to March 22?

Catching up

Too much work, I missed a whole bunch of episodes.  I'm trying to catch up, slowly.  Please bear with me.

Quick update (Up to March 22)

Kolangal

As mentioned before, Sivadas is taken away to Cochin.  Abhi and Tolkappian flounder around, with Abhi blaming Tolkappian for the fiasco.

Meanwhile, the blackmailer Maddy is tormenting Anjali and Usha, threatening to reveal everything unless he is given a great deal of money.  Usha goes to meet him, where she is followed by a suspicious Adi ( who does not see the actual person she is meeting with).  On the day before the wedding, a double feature, with Anjali marrying Kishore, and Arjun marrying Rekha, being celebrated with usual madras extravagance, who should show up but Maddy? He  meets with Usha and Anjali in one of the rooms, and threatens them once again that he will reveal all. usha tells him she will meet him later at a deserted spot. She leaves in a hurry, deciding to give her necklace, which is the only wealth she has handy. She meets Maddy at a lonely wood land (by the way are there such spots in Madras?).  She hands over the necklace.  But he wants more -- her.  She pulls out a pen knife, which he easily takes away from her.  As he approaches her, she pushes him, hard.  He trips, and tumbles over a cliff.  She is completely shaken, but she recovers and returns to the marriage hall. shortly thereafter, a policeman comes tothe marriage hall, and whispered something in Kishore's ear. It is about a body that has been found at the bottom of the cliff. Usha is aghast at all this.  Anyway the point is that Maddy is out of the picture.

The next morning, the wedding takes place.  Immediately afterwards, a posse of policeman arrives.  It seems like Usha has been caught.  but it is not Usha they have come to arrest.  Instead, it is Adi! remember the human rights case?  There is a warrant out for both Adi and the Minister.  The latter, owing to some phone call, has left for the party office.  The police, in face off all the usual screams and shouts by the womenfolk, take Adi away.  Rekha quickly calls her father and tells them that the cops are looking for him too. He slips away and is now in some slum, disguised.

Abhi and Tolkappian head to Cochin.  There they run into Shant's husband (remember, Tolkappian's housemate?), in the oddest of circumstances.  He has been given a contract to kill Abhi! fortunately, Tolkappian intervenes, and discovers that his old friend is now a hired assassin.  He promises to help Tolkappian and Abhi find a way to reach Sivadas.

This is set up by a stroke of good fortune.  A little girl is trying to cross the road.  Traffic is flying, heedless of the girl.  An instant later, she is bound to be hit.  Tolkappian, who is talking to his friend, suddenly spots the girl, and plunges into the road and rescues her, without heeding the danger to himself.  Soon a well-dressed lady comes over, and thanks him profusely for saving her daughter's life.  He asks why she allowed her child to walk into the traffic.  The mother says the child is deaf and dumb.  The crowd also praises Tolkappian.  You know where this is going. Appuchami (Shanti's husband) dropped Tolkappian off by boat at the backyard of the DCP, where Tolkappian hopes to convince the official to let him and Abhi meet with Sivadas. The official kicks him off the premises, saying that he too has heard of Sivdaas, the notorious criminal.

As he is walking away dejected, a car stops.  Who should get out, but the motherof a child he has saved only that afternoon!  He tells her his story, and she assures him that she will make the DCP, who was none other than her husband, see differently.  She takes him back to her home, and the DCP agrees to arrange for him and Abhi to meet with Sivadas  the next day.

Meanwhile, back at Abhi's residence, Anu and Mano return  from the wedding. the usual war of words commences between Anu and Aarti. One thing leads to another, and Abhi's mother decides that her daughter-in-law has gone beyond the limit.  She asks Mano to take his wife and leave.  Now Anu drops another bombshell.  She says, I own this house. you all can leave. Everybody wonders if she has taken leave all her senses. No, says Mano. Her mother has secretly purchased this house in her name!Abhi's mother cannot bear this perfidy.  She takes Aarti and Rajendran and leaves immediately. They go to Tiruvengadam's house, where they had treated to the full force of his sarcasm.


Arasi
the three kids are kidnapped by Nallatambi's men. Selvi receives a phone call saying that unless she drops her case, she cannot see the kids.  While she is struggling with this, standing outside her house, Pandian and Chellappillai are driving by on their motorbike. Pandian stops to say something nasty to his old enemy.  She tells him that she herself is in an agitated state because of the children. He guffaws that this is what she deserves because of what she did to him.  Later, while drinking, Chellappillai urges him to do something good for change.  Why not rescue the children and restore them to Selvi, who after all, has only done good things for everyone? Pandian agrees. A midnight rescue is effected, and the kids are brought back to Selvi. She promptly takes them away and returns, saying they are in a safe place from which no one can take them. Nor can they contact anyone. Three annoyances out of the show! Bravo.

 scene shifts to Bombay.  They show Sentamilarasi battling crime, by shooting people at will, no warrabt, no trial. meanwhile, Mahima is kidnapped by the evil twin, whose sells her to a whore housein Bombay. Guess which one?  The the same one that Sentamilarasi is raiding.

The real big development is elsewhere.  Judge Kartikeyan has some "doubts" about the written testimony, and asks Selvi to appear in person.  When he sees her, he goes into shock.  He asks for a number of personal questions, which she answers hesitantly.  Every answer completesanother piece of the puzzle in his mind. she is his wife's daughter! He goes into deep shock.  Stops all communication with his family in Bombay, who are worried about him.  He refuses to take phone calls from them. He knows!

A mini-episode.  Sentamilarasi's daughter-in-law is getting strange phone calls from a former classmate.  A young man is in love with her and refuses to let go.  She agrees to meet him, and does so, telling him that she has never loved him, and has never told them she did.  He should get on with his life.  He refuses.  This composition is being watched, from a distance, by her husband.
