Ashwin sitting in his bed and recalling what had happened in shoot again and again...

He looked at his hands and closed his eyes and again recall the feel of her skin in his hands... it's her... His shivu.. that's her .. but...

His thoughts broken by Ashok and Arjun..

Ashok: yen da shoot cancel aagiruchu nu feel pandriya? Yen ipdi utkaandhurukka?

Ashwin: i think I found my shivu...

Arjun: really who's that?

Ashwin: sophie...

Ashok: what?

Ashwin: yes it's her.. she is my shivu...

Arjun: how can you be so... Sure about that?

Ashwin: because I know her embrace and fragrance...  today when i touched her cheeks... I felt the same spark again... That spark when i touch my shivu everytime... That same feel.. she is my shivu...

Ashok: she is neighbour of Jasmine and her friend sweety's sister... I saw her yesterday... She also had tattoo in her her hand..

Ashwin: what tattoo?

Ashok: Ashwin with red heart.. when i asked about that they said it's her husband and both of them are not together anymore...

Arjun: Sophie sonnalaa?

Ashok: she can't speak da... There is another man in her house he said that...

Ashwin: yaar Avan?

Ashok: therila.. peruh ah dhruv...

Ashwin: dhruv (whispered) who the fuck is he? And what's he's doing in my shivu's home at night?

Ashok: come on man.. she might not be your shivu...

Arjun: lusu maari pesadha..  did you notice that she always staring at Ashwin from distance in shoot? Did you notice that she always put extra effort for ashwin's look? What are you going to explain about her tattoo? I don't think she's mute ..  she's acting i think.. everything is connecting da Ashok.. 

Ashok: how can you be this sure that she's acting?

Arjun: Naamma interview kudukurappo nee kavanichiya illayannu enakku therila.. but when that anchor called Ashwin as handsome her face changed.. Hari whisperd something to her ... For that she also muttered something to him . I saw her lips moving like she's saying something... Something is fishy... They are hiding something...

Ashwin: mmm...

Arjun: enna pandradhu?

Ashwin: Naa paathukura...

Ashok: ok Naa Jasmine veetukku pora.. bye...

Ashwin: Avata pechu kuduthu paaru...  edhachu clue kidaikalam..

Ashok: mmm...

With that Ashok left from there...

Arjun: Sari da naanum Apdiye room ku pora... Un Thangachi thaniya iruppa...

Ashwin: adhepdra pudikkala pudikkala nu solitu...

Arjun: Naa avala pidikkala nu enikkachu unta solirukana?

Ashwin: oh ..  appo unakku pidukum ah?

Arjun: Naa apdi sollavey illaye...

Ashwin: poda lusu payyale..  mentalugala..

Arjun: ok bye... Good night...

Ashwin: mariyadhaya poiru..

After Arjun left from there Ashwin sart on bed and closed his eyes and remembered when he first saw her in his own way..

Past..

Ashwin is sitting in a cafe and waiting for Ashok & arjun... There problem was going with arjun's marriage...

Ashwin also lost his sight recently... So it's difficult for him to get used to this new routine..  he is trying as much as possible to coupe up alone... He doesn't want to disturb anyone...

Suddenly his phone started ringing and a voice saying it's arjun... He attended the call and spoke...

Ashwin: solra...

Arjun: maapla Naa varakku oru half hour late aagum da... Sorry da...

Ashwin: onnum prachana illa da.. Naa wait pandra ..

Ashwin: Alexa cut the call...

Ashwin's life turned upside down when he lost his sight...she came to about true faces of people...

He came to know that only his mom and his friends Arjun & Ashok are the one who loves him truly.. 

Apart from them everyone started to ignore him or pity him for being blind...

He doesn't know if he get his sight back or not but he already came to conclusions that no one is true in this world...

He stood from his place to wait for arjun in nearby park... When he entered into the park he heard kids running and Giggling...

He wants to see but can't... All of sudden a bunch of kids dashed on him making him fell back & he fell on top of someone...

That person started to scold him...

"Ugh.. arivilaya ya unakku? Adhaan kolandhainga odi varangalla vali vittu thalli nikkalaamla? Ayyo.. en iduppu pochu... Idhula unakku cooling glass vera..  kannadiya kalattu ya mudhalla ... Yow enna ya Naa thittritey irukka nee apdiye edho bed la paduthurukka maari paduthurukka.. endhiriya.. weight thaanga mudila .  Yow..  anna tower uh .. endhiriya..."

Ashwin didn't said anything but stood silently...  That person continued to scold him but she stopped when Ashwin took his stick from his pocket...

Ashwin: am sorry.. I didn't meant to fell on you... I really can't see those kids running towards me...

Suddenly that person said in guilty voice,

"Sorry nga... Naa theriyama.."

Ashwin: it's ok... I am Ashwin..

"En peru shivaangi shivu nu koopduvanga... Sorry.."

Ashwin: Ada vidunga shivaangi atleast neenga enna adikkalaye adhu podhum...

Suddenly they another voice calling shivu...

Shivu: en sister vandhuta.. Naa kelambanum... um.. naalaikku pakkalam ashwineey...

He chuckled at her and said,

Ashwin: how about same here same time?

Shivu: pakka.. done... Bye...

Ashwin: bye...

Suddenly Ashwin felt her hug making him stiffed a little... He touched and hugged lots of girls because of his profession but none of them couldn't give him this feeling...

He feels complete for first time in his life.. he felt like he got everything he wanted... He wants to stay like this ... Her sweet fragrance filled his nostrils... Her touch imprinted on his mind... He felt like he came to light...

Shivu: bye...

When she left him... He again sucked into dark hole that was haunting him...

Present...

Sophie was sitting in roof with an oversized hoodie which is ashwin's and looking at moon...

She closed her eyes and remembered her lovely moments with her aswin.. a

Vaseegaraa en nenjinikka un pon madiyil thoonginaal poadhum
Adhae kaNam en kannuJonita Gandhi mun jenmangaLin aekkangaL theerum

This song is their favourite song especially ashwin's.. they always dance for this song when they are alone...
She wants his embrace now..

Naan naesippadhum svaasippadhum un dhayavaal thaanae
Aengugi Raen aengugi Raen un ninaivaal naanae...

She hugged her knees to her chest and a tear left from her eyes...

All of sudden she heard a clap sound from behind followed by a voice saying,

"Paada mattum theriyura oomaya ippo dhaa Naa mudhal muraya paakura... Enna acting da yebba..."
