6 moments · 16 min

Jothi narrates her life: sports over studies, a favourite P.E. teacher, and why an iron dustbin is treated as family.

A song plays over mornings, salon regulars and Jothi bossing her dad around the kitchen.

Wrongly accused and expelled, Jothi watches her father refuse to let go of the man until he says sorry to her.

The truth behind the night of the break-in, and Jothi's one request to her father: take her to the man responsible.

Jothi insists on speaking to her attacker alone and tells him exactly what he is, then lets him live.

Learning the child survived the accident, Selvam begs Maharaja for one word with the girl, and breaks down calling her name.
