The next day, on the drive from Mankulam to the airport, the child persuades them to take a chance and return to the park for one last time. Indira sustains a minor injury in the shoulder and the child and the family are able to flee in their vehicle. The child insists and they wait when suddenly the shooting starts. When the few people in the park suddenly start leaving, the escort tells them it is not safe to stay there.
When Thiruchelvan, his wife and the child reach the park before the scheduled time, there is an uneasy calm. It turns out that he is Shyama’s brother, something he does not tell them. The patrol party leader asks them to come at 4 in the afternoon to a nearby park. Thiruchelvan persuades them not to do so and tells them that he has come to Sri Lanka to find a woman called Shyama whose child he had adopted. The next morning, Thiruchelvan and Vikramasinghe step out of the village for a walk when they are suddenly captured by a Tamil militant group’s patrol party whose leader Pasupathy wants to shoot the Sinhalese escort on the spot. They take refuge that night with a Christian priest. It turns out that the village is in a warzone from which everyone is fleeing. They are told that there is a Shyama from the village Mankulam and they are taken there by their Sinhalese escort Dr Herald Vikramasinghe (played By Prakash Raj).
Amudha is safe, barring the shock, and she and her parents continue the search for the unknown Shyama.

The movie then moves from the serene Chennai to the troubled Jaffna in Sri Lanka where her foster parents take the child and where the engineer in his persona as a writer gives a speech while Amudha steps outside the venue just when a man in a wheelchair turns out to be a suicide-bomber who blows himself up and the policemen around. Her foster parents catch up with Amudha at Rameswaram and she agrees to be with them only if they accompany her to the then war-torn Sri Lanka so that she can meet her mother and ask her why she had abandoned her. Amudha runs away to Rameswaram with the intention of setting out for Sri Lanka to find her mother. The movie begins when the nine-year-old Amudha (played by Baby Keerthana) is told the truth that Thiruchelvan and Indira are not her original parents and that her mother Shyama had given birth to her at a refugee camp in Rameswaram and left her and returned to Sri Lanka. The movie is based on a short story Amuthavum Avanum (Amudha and him) by the late writer Sujatha, the pseudonym for the senior Bharat Electronics Ltd (BEL) engineer Rangarajan who was part of the team which designed and developed India’s electronic voting machines EVMs. The first time Thiruchelvan sees the child at the orphanage, he imagines that the baby is looking in the direction of Sri Lanka and crying for her mother. The baby is adopted by a Tamil engineer and writer and poet Thiruchelvan (played by Madhavan) who gets married to his beloved Indira (Simran) when he is told that the child can only be entrusted to a married couple.
It was about a young girl born in a refugee camp at Rameswaram to a woman activist Shyama (played by Nandita Das) who leaves the baby and returns to Sri Lanka where her husband Dileepan was fatally wounded while fighting in the prolonged war for a Tamil homeland. Eighteen years ago, Mani Ratnam’s Tamil ant-war movie Kannathil Muthamittal (A Kiss on the Cheek) was released.
