Although Anupama tries to stop her and tell her that she wishes to read the papers first before signing them, Rajni convinces her otherwise. She claims that there's nothing wrong and that Anupama will not be able to understand them anyway. Anupama reluctantly agrees to sign the papers and starts doing so. Just as she is about to sign away on the last paper of the document, her daughter, Rahi, comes in and stops her right away.
