The third story is about a group of five friends: Harikrishnan, Usman, Sujathan, Sooraj, and Gopan. Harikrishnan is a youth working in the Gulf. He and his friends are traveling to Pala to deliver a package from the Gulf to another person. The story takes a new turn during their journey.
They land in trouble when Usman beats Shaji's brother, Freddy, for hitting their jeep. Gopan records Shaji killing his rival, Thatill John, as he filmed Jaimy's murder. Shaji and henchmen went to hunt them. During the hunt, Freddy kills Sujathan with a knife and as revenge, Hari kills Freddy. They call Anupama whom they once saved from a robbery by Shaji's men for help. She goes to Jacob, her brother, who plans to save them from Shaji. Shaji's men find them again but during the chase, Sooraj is caught. Jacob arrives and manages to save them. Shaji uses Sooraj to lure his friends. He calls Hari and threatens them to come to the same place where Hari killed Freddy with the phone, otherwise he will kill Sooraj. They arrive but they don't find the phone when Shaji's men check their bodies. It is revealed that they gave the phone to Jacob to check the murder video and to call the fire force and ambulance to wake up the villagers. Jacob fights Shaji's henchmen and beats Shaji. When the villagers arrive, Jacob kills Shaji with his service revolver as the villagers tell him that goons like Shaji are no longer needed because he bribes the police and ministers.
