Upon hearing the truth, Vishwa decides to free her from the virtual prison. Kamala asks him to kill Adhisaya Raj and find her father. When Vishwa finally sees Adhisaya Raj's photo, he refuses to kill him and tells her that Adhisaya Raj once saved his life after a bike accident. Thereafter, Adhisaya Raj finds about Kamala and Vishwa's love and puts the innocent Vishwa behind police lockup. Later, Vishwa gets released from jail and frees Kamala from his house. Vishwa and Kamala blackmail Adhisaya Raj by phone: Vishwa agrees to set her free if Kamala's father signs a document. Vishwa with Kamala and Adhisaya Raj with Kamala's father meet up in a remote place for the exchange. Adhisaya Raj cheats them, and his henchmen surrounded Vishwa.

Reception

''Behindwoods.com'' rated the film 0.5 out of 5 stars and wrote, "If the storyline is not good enough to tire you, director Kalimuthu has made sure that there are other aspects to do the job. Like the unreasonable and illogical villainy of a cop (Saranraj), the cliché-ridden love story between Diya and Veera, and the sleazy camera angels that capture Diya's fleshy buxomness". A reviewer said, "Our simple request to Director Kalimuthu is that you made a great attempt, but lost the track with perplexity between emotional quotient and glamour".
