Due to the ill-reputation of Gowri's husband, she loses her job when Ganga welcomes Gowri to her house. There, Gowri flabbergasts & stupefies to see Chandram alive as Ganga's husband. So, Gowri decides to quit, Chandram obstructs her when she accuses of his deed then he narrates the past. After escaping from the accident, Chandram immediately rushed for Gowri but her whereabouts are not known. Thereafter, in passage, he met Ganga and learns that had she has been ditched by her lover in spite of being pregnant. So, Chandram married her to provide legitimacy to the child, in return for her help in establishing his new identity as Shekar.
