Why are the locks open?
All in all, there must be ten officers, Devara.
There is no other way.
The smuggler gangs from foreign countries,
who found it difficult to get their cargo through the port,
knew the strength of these men and used them to get it directly from the sea.
Every village had its unique strength.
All the four villages got together and challenging the Red Sea itself,
took up this dangerous mission.
Kids shouldn't be involved in this job.
Devara has addressed this with you on several occasions, Bhaira.
My land, my people, and my rules.
I have made this clear just as many times, Rayappa.
-Count it. -It must be right.
If you eat at this hour of the day,
how will the food nourish you?
Forget that.
If you stay up so late,
don't you see how unhealthy that is?
I have seen it all.
That's why I can't sleep unless I see you.
With these eyes, I witnessed my father's death.
I saw your father's passing too.
I watched my siblings die…
and the death of all my close ones.
How unlucky I am!
I spent all my life closely watching death.
I can't do this anymore, son.
Either you should see my death next…
or I should get to see you every day.
Now that I've seen you,
I can sleep peacefully.
Is Vara asleep?
Your mom doesn't fall asleep until she catches a glimpse of you.
Vara won't sleep until he hears a story from you, will he?
It was raining very heavily that day.
The British ransacked all our treasures
and were getting away in a ship.
My father…
Your grandfather…
-gathered all our people in a ship… -Oh, my!
Stop it, Father.
You always narrate your father's or his father's story.
I want to know my father's story.
Tell me Devara's story.
Your father's story is not worth sharing with the next generation.
My father's is a story of valor and honor, of a fight for our country.
