Tarun, a charming painter, for whom creativity is vision.
He was late in his shower. His mom Saritha called him for lunch.
Saritha: You're still keeping your 56 painting works like a treasure and didn't sell any one of those. How would you earn money then?
Tarun: I'll start my sales at an auspicious day.
Tarun pulled Saritha's hand and made her sit, serving her the food.
Tarun: Amma, shall I visit Aravind now?
Saritha: Are you mad? It will create problems if Aravind's father comes there.
Tarun: He's your elder brother, he won't say anything if I meet Aravind.
Saritha: You already know the personal hatred he has for us. You shouldn't visit Aravind.
Tarun: I won't stop talking to Aravind, he's my closest cousin. I promise that I won't get caught by mama. Trust me Amma.
Saritha: Alright, do whatever you want! Let not your Appa know this, else he will burst out at you. Be careful, and only careful!
Tarun: Leave the rest of it to me Amma.
Saritha: If you meet Aravind without any problems, when will you return?
Tarun: Tonight at 8PM, pakka!
Saritha: Okay da, bye and be safe.
Saritha kissed Tarun's forehead as a sign of utmost care and concern. He hugged her and left after making an excuse to his father.

Kios Packers and Movers was the company owned and managed by Aravind's father. His workers and the entire staff were very much loyal to him.
Tarun sneaked inside to meet Aravind, but had the shock of his life when he spotted Aravind's father talking to him!
Tarun's MV: I came at the exactly wrong time! I should have listened to Amma. Let's manage and take each step backwards slowly and steadily.
He managed to escape and went inside a van where the packages are kept. He assumed that workers may anytime come and keep the packages here, and hid in an empty huge carton box. He prayed that no one should open the box. But the carton box was then taped!
To make himself relaxed and not utter a word, he plugged his headset and listened to some of his favourite songs.
The van started and moved to a place which isn't far away from his house.Tarun was totally unaware of what's happening around him due to his craze in music. His phone battery went dead.
Tarun's MV: It was 20% when I plugged my headset. How will I contact Amma? Where the hell did I land! If I make even a little noise, they will open this box and complain to mama that I came there...
All the carton boxes were transferred to the house. The workers were paid the money and they left.
"Appa, just now the packers and movers shifted everything to our house. Bye pa!" this voice was none other than Sunita's, who had returned from Kerala to their old house. Her parents and younger sister Anu would arrive a day later due to a ticket booking fiasco.
Sunita: Let me check the TV gift!
When Sunita went to a room singing some songs, she saw the package and opened it.
"AAHHHHHH!" she screeched in extreme shock, as it was Tarun who was in the box. He also screeched at her in fear, then he calmed down. Both were looking at each other in awe.
