• Ranganath retaliates with a smear campaign; villagers are scared. Murthy is threatened; Naveen’s meetings are exposed, making him a target.
• Radha chooses to publicly testify, confessing her past sacrifice: how she bore a child born from violence and gave it up (or raised it in secret) to protect her family; how she accepted silence to allow her children a chance at a life.
• Climactic confrontation: Radha face-to-face with Ranganath at a village council meeting during a storm. She reveals truth; villagers react with a mix of shame, anger, and solidarity.
• Resolution: Ranganath is investigated; contractors stall. Village begins to organize cooperatively. Naveen rejects easy money and returns to honest work. Savitri’s suspension is overturned; she wins a scholarship.
• Final image: Radha and Leela on the shore after the storm — quieter, closer; a new tide of possibility for the family and village.
