Jaichand tries to yank Sanyo away, to make her leave the temple.
No, I already told you! I have already planned to perform the ‘puja’ the entire night.
No Sanyo! No, your determination will not be accepted this time. Jaichand points his finger at her. Now before Prithvi reaches this place, I will take you to the cannibal tribal region, come on. Jaichand pulls his daughter’s arm to force her to come with him.
The pandit watches them both.
Sanyo resists and pulls her arm away. She is upset with the comment and is extremely horrified, in her mind she thinks she will not leave the place without leaving a clue for Prithvi to find. She sees the Shiva in the temple and gets an idea, Sanyo then glances at her father, alright then just allow me again to bow my head down in front of the idol for the last time, she requests her father politely. Sanyo walks back to the temple.
The pandit sees her coming back.
Jaichand gives an angry look and moves away.
Sanyo rushes to the idol and takes opportunity, she quickly uses the ashes at the base of the idol to write a message on the idol itself.
Meanwhile Jaichand speaks to his guard about the journey, he can still see Sanyo from a far. He gets suspicious and his attention is on Sanyo again, she is doing something so he comes near the temple again. He can clearly see she is writing something on the idol. Jaichand rushes inside next to her, she doesn’t even notice he’s standing right next to her while she writes on. Jaichand takes his hand and wipes the ashes right off the idol. Sanyo is startled and looks at her father in surprise she stands up.

Sometime later, the 4 have reached the very same Shiva temple, the bell swings to and fro with the breeze. Prithvi heads inside while his buddies wait. He can see the pandit is doing the ‘arthi’. Prithvi lays down his weapons on the steps and goes inside to meet the pandit. Panditji, has the King of Kannauj, Maharaj Jaichand and his daughter Sanyo come here?
Yes they were here, but….
Prithvi looks at his friends, I knew it. Prithvi looks at the pandit again and asks, where did they halt?
They already left this place, moments ago.
They have gone?...At this time of night? His buddies are also concerned. But where?
Don’t know son but, Maharaj Jaichand was surely in a hurry to go, says the pandit.
Prithvi is annoyed, he is late again.
The pandit is curious, but who are you, he asks.
Arjun replies, Dhilli’s Maharaj, Maharaj Prithviraj Chauhan.
Oh, so you are the one, the pandit points out what Sanyo was doing.
Prithvi walks over to the idol and tries to read and understand the message that was smeared away by Jaichand.

{Earlier, enough Sanyo enough, you have already done what you wanted to do, but now I will not allow even a single clue to be left for Prithvi, Jaichand is adamant.
If this is your determination, so be it, you can try to wipe away 1000’s of my clues, but one thing I am sure of is Prithvi will definitely find me.
Jaichand shouts, we have passed through the jungle full of wild tigers and reached till here, the tigers would not have even touched Prithvi’s corpse by now!
Till I am alive, death cannot even touch Prithvi, from the beginning God had already written about our union with his own hands, what you will do to stop our unification, Sanyo gives her father a firm reply.
Sanyo! Enough, Jaichand grabs her arm again and yanks her away, come with me, come!
No! I will not go anywhere! Let go of me, she shrieks and tries to break free from her father. I cannot live without Prithvi! Sanyo tries to cling to the bell in the temple to resist her father’s force.
What in this life, even in your next 7 lives I will not allow you to meet Prithvi, Jaichand warns her and pulls her away out of the temple.}

Prithvi is kneeled in front of the Shiva idol, he acknowledges the situation, and kisses the veil he still has of Sanyo’s which he found on the journey before.
His friends watch him outside. Prithvi gets up and says how much Jaichand may try to hide Sanyo, he will not be able to hide from Prithviraj Chauhan eyes. Let’s go he tells his buddies, he and his buddies leave the temple. The pandit watches all 4 go.

Jaichand and troops travel ahead into the night. Now we must be careful Maharaj, warns Sheraz the commander, because we are about to enter the region of the cannibalistic ‘adivasis’. I have heard that the ‘adivasis’ are so cannibalistic, that death itself shakes in fear of their name.
Don’t worry Sheraz, the Sardar of this area is my friend. He is obligated to me, he will not do anything to us. But if anybody else will dare to come here, he will not spare them alive. ( Jaichand is referring to Prithvi.)
Sanyo hears her father’s comment. Jaichand orders let’s go and they continue their journey ahead. They walk and see human skeletons lying strewn on the ground here and there. Sanyo is shocked with the view, they all pass ahead.
Many ‘adivasis’ stand and hide behind the brush and canopy of the trees.
Jaichand is aware of them and spots them, but they walk confidently ahead. They reach a spot, suddenly they are surrounded by many ’adivasis’ with spears. The ‘adivasis’ are covered in dark paint, wearing minimum clothes and handmade shell ornaments. They all surround Jaichand, Sanyo and the troops, swaying their spears, uttering some strange sounds continuously. The sounds vibrate and echo causing confusion. One ‘adivasi’ points his spear at Jaichand and orders kill them! Kill them one by one! The people trespassing into our territory, not one of them must survive orders the ‘adivasi’.
Jaichand warns them to stop, he has his sword ready in hand, I am your Sardar’s friend, Kannauj’s King, Maharaj Jaichand.
Don’t tell lies, whoever trespasses in our territory is not our friends, but are our enemies! The “adivasi’ warns Jaichand.
No! I am telling the truth, Jaichand tries to make it clear to them.
Who? Maharaj Jaichand! We have never heard of anybody named Maharaj Jaichand, another ‘adivasi’ answers angrily. Neither have we heard about Kannauj! Get ready to die!
Jaichand defends himself and the fight is on, swords clash, Jaichand fights the ‘adivasis’. He kicks two of them and pushes one behind, Sanyo looks in horror. Jaichand is about to kill someone, but somebody shouts stop!
It’s the Sardar himself, Jaichand halts and all the ‘adivasis’ also refrain to attack. The Sardar orders his people to put the weapons down! This is Maharaj Jaichand my best friend. How dare you attack them like this. Come Maharaj, welcome to Kabila. Tell me, what is the reason for you to come here?
Jaichand says, one very special task I have with my special friend.

Prithvi and buddies, walk ahead into the deep jungle. Arjun warns Prithvi they are about to enter the cannibalistic ‘adivasi’ territory. I have heard that these cannibalistic ‘adivasis’ immediately kill any strangers that they see.
Some ‘adivasis’ are already in the area and have spotted them.
Right now I don’t even fear death, my advancing pace ahead to find Sanyo will never halt. Prithvi looks down on the ground and spots something shining, he kneels down to pick it up. Prithvi picks up two more items side by side. See this, he shows his buddies on his palm, 3 golden beads.
What is it Prithvi, questions Chand.
It’s part of Sanyo’s veil, she has left clues behind for me on the road, to find her, to help guide us ahead. Prithvi holds the beads in his hand.
{Earlier, Sanyo is worried and thinks about how her father had wiped out the clue of ashes she left on the idol earlier. What can be my last option, how can Prithvi know the path that we are following? Sanyo looks at her garments. Now I will see how father stops me. Sanyo secretly and carefully removes the beads woven in her garment and leaves a trail behind her for Prithvi to find as she walks ahead.}
Prithvi has realized this and murmurs ‘jangli bhilli’…. I am on the way.
Chand gives a grin.
These beads are definitely thrown by Sanyo to show me the direction of the path ahead, where they have gone. So I can easily reach them following behind. Let’s go says Prithvi. They all follow the trail of beads along the path which they pick up one by one. All four of them pick up the beads, while ’adivasis’ start to approach close by. Prithvi and gang step ahead. Prithvi bends down and picks up one more bead, he looks up and sees a tribal man in front of him. More tribals surround the four and start to stamp their spears on the ground and make some strange sounds. Prithvi stands up fearless and faces the huge tribal man.
Ug! Ug! Ug! Ug! The tribals make their sounds.
Prithvi is unaffected by their sounds and doesn’t react to them.

Sanyo is seated, and drinks the drink the Sardar had ordered for them, she coughs with the bad taste.
Bring some more drink orders the Sardar, my hospitality should not be any less on behalf of my friend.
Jaichand replies no need, thank-you.
Don’t worry friend, even if Prithvi comes here, my children will cut him into pieces.
Sanyo is alarmed as she listens to Sardar’s words.
And if your people are not able to succeed in the task Sardar, then I myself will cut him into pieces with my own hands.
Sanyo cannot believe her ears.
Enough, till that time I wish to keep my daughter Sanyo safe in your confinement, says Jaichand.
Your daughter is like my daughter Maharaj, says Sardar, you can leave Rajkumari with us without any hesitation and be free of any anxiety. If Prithvi even tries to set his foot in this jungle by mistake he will surely be killed. Till today not one single person has survived alive after being spotted by us.
Sanyo doesn’t like their discussion at all, she is afraid.
Suppose I was not your friend, then my condition would have been like this too, says Jaichand politely. But now this condition will be faced by my enemy. Just one time I wish to see Prithvi’s corpse with my own eyes, then I can take Sanyo back to Kannauj. There Maharaj Karthikan is waiting to get married to her.
Sanyo is listening to the whole conversation and cannot believe her ears. She is helpless and has to tolerate it all.
On this note we will celebrate, orders the Sardar.
Oh God, my Prithvi is on his way to save me without paying attention to his own life, protect him God, protect him.

Prithvi and gang are out of danger temporarily, they are dressed up in tribal wear. All the tribals who tried to attack them, have been killed. Chand, Pundir, Arjun and Prithvi have put on the black braided wigs and painted their faces, they wear the same outfits and carry the spears in their hands.
Pundir comments, now the murderous tribal’s corpse’s will become our skin/disguise.
We have overcome this danger says Prithvi, but these people are dangerous. We will have to find and free Sanyo without letting them, finding us out.
Looks like, Chand warns, this is going to be a difficult task to hide from their eyes and do the work Prithvi.
If the difficulty is great then our courage will increase, and the win will be with the courageous.
Pundir informs, we must be cautious every step of the way ahead, then see, no such power in the world can stop us from reaching to Maharani Sanyo. The four leave for the mission to get Sanyo back.
At the tribal camp dance and celebration takes place. Men and women dressed in tribal attire, sway to and fro, while some play the blow piped instruments.
Sanyo watches the dancing with disinterest she is not enjoying anything at all. Tears fall from her eyes, she can’t stand it anymore and gets up from her seat situated next to the Sardar and her father. Sanyo walks down from the platform. Jaichand gets up too and tries to stop her.
Sardar intervenes and says, friend….It’s quite impossible to run from here, he assures Jaichand. You just don’t worry at all, I will take full care of Rajkumari, he taps Jaichand’s shoulder. She will not face any kind of problem, at all.
Sanyo runs into a hut.
Jaichand is comforted with those words, you have identified my worries correctly Sardar, my daughter is just like a piece of my liver.
That is what I saw and understood says Sardar.
The main thing is that he has insulted me so bad right in front of the whole world, that if he doesn’t, if he doesn’t get his punishment, he will never understand the insult that I endured. This has all happened because of Prithviraj Chauhan. Just one time, one time let him come right in front of me, Jaichand relaxes and sits down in his seat. Sardar also takes his seat.
Prithvi and gang in disguise enter the tribal premises and walk right in front of Sardar to the platform. “Sardar Ki Jai Ho!” says Prithvi and bows in front of him, “Jai Ho” the rest say.
Where is Prithvi asks the Sardar, was he spotted in the jungle at all?
No Sardar, says Prithvi, we have scanned the entire jungle but could not find their whereabouts.
No problem, today or tomorrow he will definitely come, then we will make so many pieces out of him that it will be so difficult to count. Now go, sing, dance, and celebrate happiness.
Prithvi bows down, Sardar Ki Jai Ho!
Jai Ho! All say.
The Sardar looks at them strangely, while the 4 of them leave. They halt for a moment, Chand questions where has Sanyo been hidden.
Prithvi answers, she must be hidden somewhere here.
Come on, says Arjun, for some time we will do a drama of dancing with them, then after we will move to find sister-in-law. All four join in with the dance.
Sardar watches them carefully from a distance, now you will be happy Maharaj Jaichand, the target himself has come into the hunting grounds on his own.
What do you mean by that?
Means that, your one and only enemy Prithviraj Chauhan has come walking right in front of you.
Jaichand is surprised, Prithvi? Where, he looks around in front of him.
Sardar points and says, see over there, to Jaichand. He points at the four people dancing Chand, Pundir, Arjun and Prithvi. See Dhilli’s Maharaj Prithviraj Chauhan.
Jaichand glares at Prithvi, how did you recognize him Sardar?
The poor man doesn’t even know the customs of my people, and how to come in front of me, they do not kiss my hands, but kiss my feet.
And now this error will take his life, Jaichand stares at Prithvi.
Prithvi continues his dance through the night.
