Aniyankutty also falls in love with Pappi, but he does not disclose this to Kochu Kurup. Kochu Kurup's father brings a marriage alliance to him, but he says that he is not interested, not knowing that the alliance is with Pappi herself. However, Kartik gets to know this, and he helps Kochu Kurup to cancel the wedding since he has an eye on her.
Kochu Kurup and Pappi try to elope before the marriage, unaware that the marriage scheduled for them was with each other.

But the family intervenes and Aniyankutty is beaten by the thugs.
