Soon Jai receives a promotion in America and leaves with Neetu. Jagadish is soon accused of computer hacking and Om chucks him out the house. Om, Ayesha and his mother have to leave the house after Om failed to pay the loan covering the house. The three brothers are separated. Eventually, they all come together at the house auction to buy back their house. Om is at the auction to see the winner but is surprised when Jagadish shows up to bid for the house. He reveals that he used his hacking skills to create a program to actually block hackers instead. Jai comes at the end of the auction and bids more, which he got by selling his engine for the fastest car, but he doesn't have enough so the three brothers combine their money to win back the house, but it isn't enough.
