Both continue to steal. One day, they steal money from an old village man Korai Kaluthu Kuppusamy (Kuladeivam Rajagopal). The next day, the old man dies from heart attack. Felt guily, Aravind tries to help the late Kuppusamy's family. Aravind decides to become a good man but Parthasarathy does not want to change and strongly believe that the society will not accept it. Aravind gets married with Anandavalli (Sithara) who hides a former prostitute. Meanwhile, Parthasarathy fall in love with Kuppusamy's granddaughter Daisy (Nandhini).
