Annamalai tells Ram not to tell Radha about the phone calls as she would get upset. Ram goes to his room and sits by Rekha who is sleeping. Ram looks at Rekha's sleeping form and caresses her for a few minutes and gets up and paces for a few minutes before sitting down thinking.
Next day, Ram and Rekha come downstairs, get Santhosh from their maid and walk towards to Annamalai and Radha. Rekha tells her mom that they are going shopping for a bicycle for their son. Radha tells her husband that Rekha has slimmed down and looks very nice and trim. Radha asks for Santhosh but Rekha tells her mom that they are taking Santhosh with them because they are going shopping for their son. Annamalai tells Radha to let Santhosh go with his parents. After they leave, Radha tells her husband that Rekha looks beautiful now. Annamalai tells her to go get him some coffee instead of repeating the same thing over and over again. Unknown to Ram and Rekha, Cithibabu is waiting outside pretending to repair a car in front of their house and watching them. When Ram and Rekha pass. Cithibabu follows in his car. Ram stops at a fruit stall to buy some fruits. Ram pays the man but the vendor doesn't have any change, so Rekha takes Santhosh with her to the car to get her purse. She leaves Santhose int he car and goes to her husband to give him the change. Seeing this, Cithibabu sneaks to Ram's car and kidnaps Santhosh. As Cithibabu is entering his car, Rekha sees him and starts shouting. Cithibabu leaves the spot with Santhosh. Ram and Rekha follow but loses Cithibabu. Rekha is frantic and they go to the police station and lodge a complaint. Int eh meantime, Santhosh is taken to Cithibabu's place and he gives the sleeping Santhosh to his men and tell them to take good care of the baby. He tells his men that Santhosh is not his eneny but Ram is, so they should take care of Santosh.
At Annamalai's house, Radha is worried that it is late and Rekha has not returned. She tells her husband that Rekha would call her every hour but so far there has been no call from Rekha. Annamalai tells Radha to call her. Radha dials Rekha's number. Rekha comes home crying followed by Ram. They tell their parents about the kidnapping and Annamalai wants to report but Ram tells his FIL that a report has already been made. Rekha tells her parents that she will die if anything happens to her son. She cries for her son and faints. Annamalai and Radha take Rekha to the couch and revive her. Rekha tells her father to find her son. Annamalai tells Radha to take care of Rekha while he and Ram go in search of Santhosh. Rekha is in bed but gets up screaming for Santhosh and Radha try to console her. Annamalai and Ram return and Rekha asks what happened. Annamalai tells Rekha not to worry and Santhosh will be back soon. They leave Ram with Rekha and go out. Ram tries to console the irrate Rekha. Outside, Radha asks her husband what happened and Annamalai tells her that he just said that to console Rekha but he himself is worried now because, the Regn no. Ram had was fake. Now he is unsure what to do.
Ram gets a call from Cithibabu who asks him if he is worried about his son or he is ready for another! Ram tells him that he is not responsible for Cithibabu's predicament and wants his son returned. Cithibabu tells Ram that he had once pleaded for his wife but Ram had not listened. Rekha snatches the phone from Ram and pleads with Cithibabu to return her son and tells him that she will give him anything he wants as long as he returns her son. Cithibabu tells Rekha that he will let her know what she wants tonight when he calls again. Annamalai and Radha go to Rekha and sit with her trying to console Rekha who is crying fitfully. THODARUM.
