Following this, Raam is subject to a trial in the magistrate court, which orders preventive detention, alleging that he was responsible for them. Disappointed, Raam, now arrested, sits alone and recollects how he ended up landing on his terrible fate. Ram was a college student, excellent in both studies and extracurricular activities. He, along with his sister, Gayatri, was brought up in a strict and disciplined manner by their father, Jagannath, who worked as the regional bank manager. Their mother had a soft and loving nature. Jagannath wanted his children to become good citizens of the country, with little regard for what they intended to do as they grew up. One day, when Raam was on his way to the college, he saw a local hooligan (a goonda) harassing his fellow college mate by coloring him without his consent (because of the Holi festival). Raam questions him about his misbehavior, only to be treated the same way. Enraged, Raam physically fights the hooligan and his partners. During an auspicious event the next day, the injured hooligan, along with his superior and other local goondas, storms into Raam's house and threatens him and his entire family. Raam's father, Jagannath, literally begs the goondas to forgive his son as he never wanted any trouble. After some arguments, the goondas warned them to steer clear of their paths for good, and left the house. Raam's father criticized him for his behavior for it brought shame to the entire family.
