Freddy reaches Sanusha's house and plans to kill her by poisoning her. But Asif Ali reaches the flat the same time to erase his fingerprints from the tables and chairs so that even if Sanusha dies he won't be blamed. But all the three feel that if Sanusha wants to die without pain she has to go out. So they all go near a bridge. But during Asif Ali's and Freddy's fight Sanusha accidentally falls from the bridge. When she regains her consciousness she finds Asif Ali along with her and realizes that she hasn't died. She starts calling Asif Ali, 'Messi.' They go in search of Freddy. Along their journey, they grow closer and slowly fall in love. But Sanusha after a small fight with Asif Ali stands in a bus stop which unknown to both of them was the stop for prostitutes'.

Thus she falls in love with Asif Ali and they confess it. They go meet Sanusha's cheater boyfriend and with the encouragement from Asif Ali, Sanusha slaps him. Then the movie moves to Beeran's part where they kidnap Sanusha and how Asif Ali and Freddy together rescue Sanusha.

Reception[edit]
The film received negative reviews upon release. Sreenath Nair of The Hindu was critical about the film, especially the script, camera and direction. In his review, he comments, "Good art seldom allows the viewer digressions. But, if one starts relishing the taste of popcorn and coffee more than anything during a movie, the work is not riveting. Idiots, K.S. Bava’s directorial debut, gives one ample opportunities for such culinary digressions."[1] Paresh C Palicha of Rediff.com rated the film 1.5|5 and concluded his review saying, "Idiots is a film that you would like to forget as soon as you get out of the theatre. Idiots lives up to its name."[2]
