PENN
Deepa continues her story. Her frine Jamuna and her brother Sunil perusade her father to agree to her going to medical college. The 5 lakh donation? asks her father. Who will give that? I will, says Sunil. His parents treated Anjali as their own daughter, and told him to help her go to medical college before they died in a car accident (how thoughtful that they expressed such wishes before dying accidentally!). Father says he will accept if Anjali can repay the loan with interest. Everyone agrees, and she goes off to college, completing three years. In the fourth year...

At the medical college, Manohar and friend Ravindran are leading a group of boys ragging a group of freshers, all girls. Anjali and Jamuna come by and intervene., taking away the girl, Nirmala, with them. The boys threaten her roommate to make sure she comes over in the evening and meets them at a place near their hostel, but also near the mortuary. As they are waiting, Akash, who is Jamuna's friend (the same Akash who is Kala's son!) joins them, asking what they are waiting for. They tell him, reluctantly. He too joins in the fun. They wait in the mortuary, covering themselves with white sheets looking like just another corpse. The girl comes there, after finding that they are not outside (imagine that, a girl actually calls out for them and comes into the mortuary looking for them). She is shocked as they suddenly arise from the sheets. Then they surround her in a menacing way. They lock the door,  and Akash begins to molest her. In the struggle, she is thrown to the ground, hits her head, and lies dead in a pool of blood from her head. The boys flee. On the way out, they see Anjali, who has come in search of the girl, presumably having heard of her meeting from her roommate. She sees them running away, and then looks in and sees Nirmala lying on the floor.
