Fernando's henchmen realise that Arjun has the puppy and try different techniques to take it back and kill Simba, all in vain.

Eventually, the principal finds out with the help of PT Master Swaminathan, and Shankar is informed.

Although they are unsuccessful, they learn about the International Dog Competition happening in Coimbatore, offering a 2 lakhs winning prize.

Shanmugam experiences a heart attack in the middle of the night, only to be saved by Simba, who warned the entire family.

Shanmugam recovers, but the remorseful Arjun explains that there is an entry fee for the final dog competition, which Shankar can't pay due to his situation.

He punishes his henchmen and learns that Simba had just got eye surgery, but this could be disrupted by flashing lights.

During the finals, the judges don't allow Simba in due to a policy that says blind dogs are unable to participate.
