Soon Jai receives a promotion back in the United States and leaves with Neetu. Jagadish is caught computer hacking after trying to help a friend get the answers to a test and Om throws him out of the house as a result. Om, Ayesha and his mother have to leave the house after Om failed to pay the loan covering it. The three brothers are separated. Eventually, they all come together at the house auction to buy it back. Om is at the auction to see the winner and is surprised when Jagadish shows up to bid. He reveals that he used his hacking skills to create a program to block hackers instead. Jai comes at the end of the auction and bids more, which he got by selling his engine for the fastest car and realizes that his future is in India not in the United States.
