Viswanathan sends him to a coaching centre ran by KC Francis, a strict principal who watches every child through CCTV cameras. Manu often asks his mother Rema to let him to go home and participate in reality TV shows. However, Viswanathan disagrees. Meanwhile, a fake sanyasi named Himaval Swami opens an Asram in their village.
