When Madhubala discovers Rajaram is hurt, she is horrified and provides him first aid, a haircut, and a makeover. Rajaram quickly regains consciousness and assumes a childlike demeanor.

After bringing him to the hospital, Psycho Seenu and his group discover from the physician that Rajaram’s head injury has caused him to lose his memory.

The physician also tells them that Rajaram can recover his memory if he sees something or someone that he remembers clearly, and they should take good care of him until that happens.

Before long, Rajaram is referred to by everyone as Chanti because they don’t know his own name. While all is going on, Nana Bhai and Jeeva find out that Lala is still unconscious but not in danger at the hospital.

When Prathap gets to his house, he goes to confront Shadow/Chanti. When he finds out that Chanti/Shadow is actually Rajaram, Bindu’s long-lost elder brother, he is astonished. When Bindu hears this from her mother, she is also taken aback.
