Prithvi has come back to consciousness he remembers that he has a big task ahead of him to find Sanyogita. I will find you, Prithvi gets up and sees he is surrounded by tribals instead.

At Chittorgarh the kite festival takes place. S Singh and Pratha watch all the kites with many colours in the air. Pratha’s attention is caught by a red kite flying above in the sky she tells her husband to look, both chit chat with each other, they both enjoy the view of the festival.
Meanwhile at the gate of Chittorgarh Vanraj makes his debut. He is disguised as an old man. He approaches the gate. The guards do not allow him entry inside, but then excuse him because they see he is handicapped, the old man has a defect in the limb. Vanraj kills another guard ahead after he passes into the entrance of the palace. He quickly puts on the uniform of his victim. Vanraj Solonki finishes his task and sets out for the next. He approaches S Singh he introduces himself as Virang. He is the old manthri of S Singh. S Singh then introduces his wife Pratha to him. She is Prithviraj’s sister.
So she is Prithviraj Chauhan’s sister, eh? Vanraj is delighted and ponders in his mind how he will commence the destruction of Prithvi’s family.
Prithvi finds himself in a camp sleeping on a cot, he is surrounded by tribals with spears. He gets up and shows his fist to them as he thinks he is in danger. Sardar is coming, one says out loud. One elderly tall tribal man walks towards Prithvi. The tribals hold onto Prithvi, to his astonishment, they all yell out “Maharaj Ki Jai Ho”.
You?
You don’t know me but I saw the emblem on your medallion and instantly recognized you as the Late Maharaj Someshwar’s son. Sardar orders the tribals to let him go and to give him help and medicine. You need to rest, Sardar tells Prithvi.
But I have to go immediately, I cannot wait. Prithvi is anxious to leave.
How can I be of your assistance, asks the Sardar?
I am looking for Rajkumari Sanyogita.
Is it the princess Sanyogita of Kannauj you are talking about? Oh yes, of course I understand now.
Have you seen her? Is she alive, Prithvi questions the Sardar. Where did you see her?
Come with me, I will tell you everything.
Prithvi is relieved for the moment, he is also comforted by Sardars words. He is grateful to him. I knew you were alive, where ever you are, I will find you.

Sanyo keeps shouting continuously. She yells, open the door, she is still trapped inside a jail, guards are positioned. She has a tray of food, I don’t want your food she throws the plate away. Open the door, tell the King that I will kill myself here. I have to come out, the guards listen to her and open the door to avoid any fatality. No, you cannot leave here this is the order of the King, we have to obey him only.
Sanyogita warns them that she will do hunger strike.
Like we told you, we follow only the orders.
How do you do this, what kind of people are you?
The guards have some pity on her. Okay then if you behave we will let you out. The senior guard orders she be taken to fresh air outside. Go take her under full vigilance. But remember if you try to flee we will not spare you, the guard warns her. Sanyogita is led outside finally, to the forest, she is left alone. They watch her from a distance. Where will I run to, to whom I will go to? I have nobody to go to.

Just tell me if Sanyo is alive?
Yes Maharaj, I have seen Jaichand take her forcefully with guards to a place far away.
Do you know the place? Prithvi wants to find out.
It’s in an area linked by 3 places Jaigad, Roopnagar and Ishangarh. Some “pahadi”, ”theen kufiya chupaya hai”, in 3 valleys.
How do you know these areas? Prithvi asks him.
We know these places, we all have been staying here our entire lives.
I will find her and get her!
Don’t go there its dangerous. Those places are hazardous and risky to go to.
There is no such “katra” that exists, that can stop Prithviraj Chauhan. Thank-you for helping me.
You don’t know what you are falling into, my men will accompany you, the Sardar has compassion for Prithvi.
I will not allow anybody to accompany me, I will go on this journey alone. Prithvi sets off to the places.
Go Prithvi, go! Your death awaits you. Princess Sanyogita is nowhere there, its only death. The Sardar has tricked Prithvi and is on Jaichand’s side.

Sanyo is free but cries alone. She reminiscences about Jaichand and Prithvi. You were very late Prithvi. I have nothing to do with you anymore. Sanyo also remembers Vaishalli’s words, he will finally come. Why! Prithvi, why such false promises.
The guards call Sanyo to retreat back, a storm is on its way, they caution her. She thinks of her own storm in her mind. She asks them what this place is. They are not allowed to disclose it.

Prithvi continues his journey ahead on horse, looking for Sanyo, according to the information Sardar gave.

Maharaj ki jai ho! Sardar has come to Kannauj to meet Jaichand. You are right, Prithvi is very adamant, he will not stop. Even after dumping him like that he has survived, we found him you know.
He always survives! Jaichand is irritated with the situation.
Don’t worry Jaichand, we have tricked him and sent him to the valleys of death, nobody returns from that area alive, the Sardar consoles him with the thought.
Prithvi makes his way, he asks a man on the road which is the direction to Jaigad.
The man responds like this: you speak of a very dangerous region it’s a desert and a sandstorm is coming this way, I give my advice to you, not go there.
There is no storm that will stop Prithviraj.
Jaichand is comforted by his words and pleased by the efforts made by the tribal head.
We both have 3 chances, Prithvi has only one chance to save himself. We have to take your life in one of the 3 times, more than sufficient to eliminate you.

Prithvi rides into the darkness, he enters the desert, Prithvi cannot see anything clearly as the dust and sand fly everywhere. He gets off his horse to see if any danger confronts him. People are lying all around him hidden in the sand. He cannot see them. Prithvi looks carefully around. Suddenly all these men get up in front of him. Prithvi sees many people, they have encircled him, all have swords. Prithvi uses his lance on them, one by one. Finally one man is left, he misses Prithvi with his sword. Prithviraj fights the last man. The opponent is strong and catches Prithvi. Prithvi also uses his strength, he knocks and punches him in the stomach, he is killed instantly. Prithvi has succeeded in killing them all. He lifts his sword.
One man is still left concealed in the sand he hides and spies on Prithvi.
