Years later, when people asked Priya and Karthik about the secret to their happy marriage, they would smile and say:

The next day, Karthik took Priya to her favorite music concert, where he surprised her by singing a song he had composed, with lyrics that spoke of their love story.

("Like the stars in the sky, your love guides me. For you, my love, my heart beats for you alone.")

"வாழ்நாள் முழுவதும் உன்னுடன் (Vazhnal muzuvathum unnudhan) (Will you spend the rest of your life with me?)" he asked, his voice trembling with emotion.

Priya said yes, and they shared a kiss as the waves gently lapped at their feet.
