He reveals that they actually came to Goa because he requested them so. Karthik realizes that he is losing everything else for his socio-economic status, calls off his marriage, and reconciles his friendship with Vivek. Kaushik gets the confidence to act in films, and Uppi becomes an editor. Vivek finally gets over his breakup, reflects on his feelings for Shirley, and becomes a cooler person without anger issues.
