At the same time, Brahma come to know that the book is lost and orders Yama and Chitragupta to locate the book within one month. Chitragupta fears that if the book is seen by humans, chaos will happen. However, Yama assures him that only the details of the person who is viewing the same will be shown by the book. Meanwhile, Yama and Chitragupta come to Tamil Nadu to search for the book. One day, Gopi learns about his mother's death date through that book. Now, Gopi wants to save his mother and win his lover.
