One day Anu's friend finds his purse in his back-pack. Sirish reveals to her friend that he is rich and his dad Krishna Mohan said that if Anu fell in love with Sirish without knowing he's rich they would get married. But if she didn't, he would marry a girl of his father's choice. Soon Anu falls in love with Sirish and when she's about to propose, her father says that her godparents would wish that Anu would marry their son Arun. Not wanting to hurt their feelings she accepts. Then Sirish goes to Anu's home in a village to make Anu confess her feelings to him and choose to marry Srish with the help of ShyamSundar, a marriage broker. And then finally Anu's father learns of Sirish's love and asks him whether his family can take good care of Anu. Sirish realizes even if he marries Anu, she would be treated like an outsider like his sister-in-law and Sirish tells his father about the talk with Anu's Dad.
