In the end, Lachu, Maneesha, Cerena, Junaiz, Anujz, Shiju, Nadira and Devu.

Akhil tells Sobha that he feels like in many ways, Sobha is like a young girl, and jokes around with her about her lack of strength. The latter replies that she is mentally strong and tells Akhil about the time he had teared up thinking of his children. Sobha then becomes angry when she feels like Akhil is trying to make light of her struggles.
