As he failed to repay, the harassment from the money lenders increased, thus, Lakshmi along with her family shifted to Janawada, Shankarapalli (m), Ranga Reddy.  As there was no income, to feed the family, they have again borrowed Rs.24,000/- from Narsamma of Jonnada.  Unable to bear the harassment of Biswas, Narsamma, Swami and his wife, Lakshmi left to her parents.  

Appala Naidu was forced to sign on the sale deed of his house in the presence of the local elders Ravindra Reddy and Narsinga Rao, stating that all his debts shall be cleared and paid Appala Naidu Rs.20,000/-.  But to his pity, no debts were cleared apart from the payment made to Sardar and Asif.
