Teena's younger brother and Ambili's old friend Bobby Kurian (Naveen Nazim) is a cyclist and a frequent traveller whose passion is to get into the Guinness World Records by having the Around the World Cycling Record before heading to his cycling trip to Kashmir, he heads home to meet his family, where Teena expresses her desire to marry Ambili. Upset by this Bobby fights with Ambili and sets off for his trip to Kashmir. Ambili, who looks up to Bobby, follows Bobby on his cycle. Bobby, though angry at first, later lets Ambili join him. It is later revealed that Ambili's parents died in a terrorist attack at Kashmir when he was young. His father Major Ganapathi (Binu Pappu) was a Military Officer in the Indian Army and was the one who taught Bobby how to cycle.
