The camera then pans to show a theatre, Thankamani Talkies in Kurukanmoola, where Kolilakkam is screened. A drunk man is seen shouting at a woman outside the theatre. There are also glimpses of a thief being accompanied by a police officer and an astrologer. Women are seen fighting for drinking water in the video.
