Nagappa leaves Latha after coming to know she is penniless. Kumar in the guise of Farooq Baba takes her to Ramaraya's house. Nagappa kidnaps Saroja for a ransom of 10 lakhs. Kumar saves her and unites with his siblings. It is then revealed that Mala is Kumar's secretary who was sent by Kumar himself to take care of the property in the guise of being a lover to Shekhar so that Shekhar does not fall prey to any one else with evil intentions. She returns the property papers to Kumar and Kumar decides to get Shekhar married to Mala. Kumar and Saroja leave after handing over the entire property to Shekhar. When Shekhar expresses his inability to manage the factory and asks Kumar to stay with him, Kumar refuses to stay. He further announces that the ownership of the factory would belong to every employee working there and proceeds to move towards village life along with his wife.
