Few days later, Regina gets a call from Surya's friend Aiyappan and learns that Surya had committed suicide. Due to the shock, Regina suffers fits for the first time. 3 years later, Regina can't stand the fact her father is in a mess due to her reluctancy to marry, and accepts the marriage proposal from John's family for her father's sake.
