Sitting down at dinner with the rest of the elders, Kim confidently questions the Dada jee on his decision of marrying Suriya to her cousin without her consent. She is told to keep quiet by Dawood but Kim is not one to listen. If we may say so ourselves, it is the year 2023, good on Kim to be voicing out her opinions even when she is not welcomed to do so. If Kim can help change the conservative thinking of the family, we applaud her for her efforts. Not only is she shedding light on various issues but is also slowly causing Dawood to question his family and their beliefs.

Upon returning home Kim finally tells Dawood why she is adamant on asking for Suriya’s consent for the marriage, she then discloses what she knows about her and asks Dawood not to let the same thing happen to his sister now that he knows she is madly in love with someone else. Dawood rubbishes off Kim’s talks and asks her not to repeat this again.
