One day, he meets a monk and tells him he want to become a monk, too. The monk asks him to get permission from parents. Saman returns home to seek his mother, Shalika, permission. She has recently married Charuka. When Saman tries to meet his mother, Charuka expels Saman from the house. After that, Saman lives with his grandfather.

Meanwhile, Saman's father, Chandrasekara scolds Shalika for the disappearance of Saman. Shalika worries about her son and asks Charuka about Saman. He tells that he can't live with a beggar. After hearing this, Shalika gets angry and quarrls with him. After that, Charuka abandons her.
