He tells his mother that he is renouncing everything and a huge function is arranged to make him attain sage hood. Radha realises her mistake and goes to him as a last resort all dressed up.

Reception
Valibamey Vaa Vaa was released on 14 November 1982 on Diwali day alongside other releases such as Darling, Darling, Darling, Kanmani Poonga, Agni Sakshi, Paritchaikku Neramaachu and Adhisayappiravigal. The film was not commercially successful. Kalki felt considering the plot we could have got a psychological film but not even that and the film got totally lost during the climax and concluded like how Karthik got weakened in the film looking at the glamour even Bharathiraja seems to have become the same.
