I think its too late. Is there any chance that it will revive?

The soil is a mixture of perlite and coco peat. The plant is placed in indirect light and receives about an hour of direct sunlight. I was afraid to put it in direct sun because it just arrived a few days ago and it's newly transplanted.http://i1087.photobucket.com/albums/...r/DSC05796.jpg

The plant arrived to me a few days ago. The plant is placed in an indirect light since i was first trying to acclimitize it. The medium is composed of cocopeat and perlite.
