Ouseppachan is the Managing Director of the institution summons Anamika following the arrears that happened in paying the first semester fee in the college. Ouseppachan asks her to pay up or to quit, because this is not just an educational institution but also a commercial venture. Substantial amounts are collected as capitation fees, in these institutions, which do not favor students entering through the merit route, because such students cannot be charged any capitation fees. This line of story takes its life from the recent 'Rajani' issue which shook the state on her suicide from the entrance commissioner buildings in the capital city. In our story too, Anamika who leaves the room insulted and devastated on rash comments from the head of the institute, commits suicide.
