Then Sarada informs him regarding a diary of Dr.Krishna. Vijay requests Parvati to give it, but she refuses and hands it over to the hospital. As it is in code language, nobody can understand it and throws it into the dustbin. Vijay acquires it after a great deal of dedication he decodes it.

At last, Parvati gets back her eyesight and the movie ends on a happy note with the marriage of Vijay & Parvati.
