Policemen involved are promised promotions from political leaders. Bharath, back at home after legal proceedings, promises (at his mother's insistence) before his late father's photo to not [[2014 Kiss of Love protest|kiss]] anyone whom he doesn't know. It is revealed that his father Chandran happens to be a man whom Rambo had murdered in his early days.

Meanwhile, Bharath is able to requite love from Ganga and one night he stays with Ganga. After this incident Ganga starts to react hypochondriacally and suspects she is pregnant with Bharath's child and preoccupiedly behaves in the gravity of the same. Rambo is able to sketch Pathmanabhan through two bumbling goons, but before executing Pathmanabhan publicly, shoots his own urinary bladder using his suppressed gun due to an unexpected kiss from Bharath (who has just got confirmation on Ganga's love). Rambo, who after the accident has urinary incontinence and is attached to a urine drainage bag permanently, is enraged and asks his right-hand man to round up everyone involved. All the while the police plan to trap Rambo, once and for all, understanding him to be not just a business man but a Don.
