Her brother-in-law Prof. Sreenivasan remembers how she had mediated the fights between him and his wife / Shyamala's Sister Shobha and ended up uniting them. Sreenivasan also cannot fathom Shyamala's suicide since he found her to be a downright practical and bold person. Even Shyamala's Dad Captain Panicker is shattered at the turn of events, and he starts trying to find the reason for her daughter's suicide. He gets a shirt from her bag when he searches through her belongings. Suresh confirms the shirt to be belonging to their common friend Hafiz Ali. Suresh then questions Hafiz whether they were romantically involved, to which Hafiz replies in the negative, He reveals that he had proposed to her on occasions, but she has turned them down and they had agreed to remain as close friends. One day Panicker gets a call from her hostel warden to go there and collect Shyama's belongings. When he goes there, he meets Shyamala's friend and roommate Laila.

From Laila He learns of the close relationship between Hafiz Ali and Shyamala. After a brief period of fight, Shyamala invites Hafiz to a Kanyakumari trip. They hire a room to watch the sunrise where Shyamala tells him of their mother who had run away at some point in their life from their dad and left the kids also. Hafiz Ali also eventually opens to Shyamala about his personal life. It is shown earlier in the movie when Hafiz tells Shyamala about his father being a mental hospital inmate and been spending last two decades of his life there. That day he further tells her that after his mother's death he had remarried and gave all his properly to his second wife, Hafiz's stepmother. Eventually they start getting ill-treated by her family and his father loses his mental balance after some time. His stepmother finds a girl for Hafiz and conducts their marriage, but even his wife was unapathetic towards him and was controlled by his stepmother. Even after they are having a son and she continues the same attitude, he leaves the house and his family behind. After sharing a tender moment together, both Hafiz and Shyamala end up getting involved physically and she eventually gets pregnant. Totally devastated and at the advice of Laila, she goes back to Hafiz even if she had asked him earlier not to see her again. But she is shocked to see that his wife and son has come back (just as she wished him when they parted their ways after that night). Left with no other option, she commits suicide since she worried that even if she broke out the news to him, Hafiz would come for her deserting his wife and son.
