She is also his biggest fan and has been proposed to by Chandhar via their fan letters to one another.

Love soon blossoms between the two and just as things come together, in comes Suri (Karthik in a dual role) who is the identical twin of the manager. Suri was adopted by the owner of the estate and so he feels neglected by his own family. This makes Suri binge on booze and other bad habits.
