Roy invites Annie for a movie, but Shamu calls her from a phone booth. Annie goes to meet Shamu and they talk. Roy follows Annie and talks to Shamu telling him he should stop seeing Annie.

Annie meets Shamu again in the forest. Shamu tells Annie about his past life and about a tragic accident that happened to his wife Leelamma alias Leelu (Urvashi) who was washed away in a river current and raped by Roy and his friends.
