He confirms Aswathi's marriage with Kunjumon ([[Aju Varghese]]), a small local businessman. However, the story takes a twist when Manoharan learns that Aswathi had fallen in love with a boy named Sathya from her college in Bangalore. Later, Manoharan meets Anitha in Bangalore and she says that the word of the bride is the last and final word for a marriage and that it's Aswathi's right to marry whomever she wants.

Aswathi later tells everybody that she loved Sathya and wished to marry him. The wedding takes place and Kunjumon is found to be married to Aswathi's best friend. | |||
