At night, Babu Antony enters Tony house and kills the pet dog. The gundas also enter Sukumaran's house and tie Sukumaran and his family, wearing a mask and telling them to be careful. Raghuvaran wants to get evidence to catch the smugglers. Urvashi, sister of Sukumaran, falls in love with Tony, who seems serious always. Finally, Rajan P. Dev, who lost his son now gets a threatening call from the smugglers to help them smuggle or else his second son also may get converted to a drug addict. Rajan P.
