rest of the vials. One night, a low-caste labourer calls upon Haridas as his pregnant wife is experiencing pains. He tells him that all pregnancy cases are undertaken by Dr Rajan Thomas and interfering in his domain would cause problems. But Dr Thomas does not go for the delivery and neglects them, as it is the birthday party of his child. Even after Haridas's request, he doesn't go. At last, Haridas himself tries to attend the case, but in vain. The woman dies due to severe bleeding and medical negligence by Dr Thomas. This becomes a huge issue and Haridas is made the scapegoat, thanks to a smear campaign by his uncle and cousins. The mob throws stones at his house and breaks the windows and Haridas is injured as well. The next day, Illethu arrives to check on the well-being of Haridas.

Not able to carry Haridas's weight on his shoulders and due to the stress of ragging, Unni collapses and spits out blood. Unni writhes in pain and then dies. Horrified, Haridas tries to resuscitate him, but in vain. He panics and fumbles all over. All the students run back to their rooms when they see the professor(Haridas's mentor) arrive at the scene. Haridas falls to his legs and pleads with him not to reveal it. The management quickly covers it up as a playground accident. Cutting to Haridas and Illethu, Haridas falls
