After the funeral, a neighbour reveals to Gopal that his best friend Sadai killed his wife, but Gopal refuses to believe him first. One night, the neighbour curses Sadai for killing Valli. Sadai then kills him for being the only witness of the murder. The next day, his dead body was found under a bridge. Gopal has had this suspicion that Sadai might have murdered his wife, so he decides to unearth his wife's corpse, and he finds Sadai's hair there. He is therefore heartbroken and mad with rage all at the same time. Later that night, Gopal finds an intoxicated Sadai in a chemical warehouse. Gopal beats Sadai up, disposes his body in a gallon barrel, and dissolves his body with nitric acid.
