However all the money from Remo's bank account is removed and it is revealed that Remo is indeed alive, and all he had to do was to fake his death to catch him, He, Sunny, and the Inspector were all working together to catch him red-handed. In the climax, Siddharth and Sophie meet Remo and the Inspector comes to arrest them. A fight starts between the men fatally injuring Siddharth, while Sophie runs away and falls into an open grave, Remo looks at her and feels sorry for loving the wrong person. An enraged Siddharth comes from behind to stab Remo but Remo dodges the attack and accidentally stabs Sophie and himself falling into the grave, thus ending both of their life. In the end, Remo meets his stepmother in the mental asylum claiming he doesn't know her. While he gets into his car, he meets Sunny and thanks him for saving him from getting framed for murder and both men shake hands.
