He goes to meet her at her house, and comes to know that Supriya is someone that Manavaalan had hired to make Murthy get out of his misery and depression so that he could start working again. He lashes out at Manavaalan for being such a mean and money-minded person. He is mad at Supriya, who confesses that it was true and that she was never married. He calls off the wedding in spite of her begging that she, in fact, loves him. Overly depressed, he decides that he would join his wife and his baby.
