Vennela visits his restaurant regularly for the same reason, and Kalyan gradually falls in love with her. He proposes to her one day, but to his shock, Vennela cries upon hearing his proposal, saying she loves him too, but she came here to bid farewell. Vennela says she borrowed 2 million Rupees from a gang a few years ago for her father’s heart surgery, and now she cannot repay it. The gang has threatened her family several times, and warned her they will abduct her if she cannot repay her debt the next day.

He starts to look her for through clues she left while with him, but ends up finding nothing.
Meanwhile, Kalyan and Anu’s parents want the two to marry each other. To please his mother, Kalyan agrees to marry Anu, though he loves Vennela. The night before Kalyan and Anu’s wedding, Vennela’s father visits Kalyan’s restaurant to ask for help, saying the gang abducted Vennela as threatened, because Kalyan didn’t repay her debt. The gang now threatens to kill her if he cannot repay the debt the next day. Kalyan agrees again to repay the money, to save Vennela.
The next day, Kalyan escapes from his wedding to save Vennela. He and Vennela’s father arrive at the appointed place, where they see the gang pointing a gun at blindfolded Vennela. Immediately after Kalyan hands over the money to them, police arrive on the scene. The gang is angered and thinks Kalyan brings not only the money, but also police, so they shoot Veenela’s father and hits Kalyan to unconsciousness and takes away Vennela again.
