Which could be the correct "jadi bhutiya" Prithvi is not sure which plant to uproot. Nil watches Prithvi from behind a log.
At the village all pray for Prithviraj, God let our king have a long life. If the villagers had not been saved then nobody would have been saved. What has become of the friends, Arjun and Chand ask the people, they both lie on the ground unconscious.
It’s a thorn bush, which one should I pick? Prithvi looks desperately, this must be it. Prithvi falls on the ground, nothing will happen to my “sathiyo” nothing, As Prithvi reaches for the right plant, Nil comes and kicks him. Prithvi loses his balance, as he has weakened and stumbles to the ground. I knew you put poison in the water. You were told to do this all, by Ghori.
Yes Prithvi! Our Sultan won this time.
Move from my way! Prithvi shouts at Nil, and fights him. Nil easily pushes him to the ground. Prithvi gets up and hits Nil with all his might. Nil has fallen, If anything happens to my troops I will kill you all move from my way!
“Bas!” Maharaj even if you stand you cannot survive. I will burn all the plants, even if any are left, I will not allow you to take.
The mukhiya, head of the village is concerned, they need some more herbs they wait for Prithvi, is there any other way to treat them, he asks the vaid?
There is another route, they all turn their heads and look at the Devi Idol. Inside the temple the brahmin does “arthi” All go to pray at the temple. Prithvi is unconscious so are his buddies Chand and Arjun .
Nil has already taken the torch and ignited the grass, to burn the bush required for medicine. He cannot see Prithvi anywhere and wonders where he has gone, he mumbles go and hide Prithvi, once I burn all the herbs you will burn with it.
Prithvi comes out of the darkness and bashes Nil and kicks him repeatedly. Prithvi's head starts to ache. Nil gets up and kicks Prithvi back. Prithvi makes him twirl around and finally breaks his leg.
This cannot be! Prithvi sees the flames engulfing the grass. He tries to stop it from burning and quickly scrambles to pull out the live bush.
All pray at the temple.
Prithvi tries to get as many branches as he can and starts his run back to the village. He stumbles again on the way but manages to stand upright. A little step ahead and Prithvi is down again, he is unconscious now.
The mukhiya of the village is wondering where Maharaj is, he has still not come back.
Prithvi has the herbs in his hand, he opens his eyes and tries to get up again.
Mukhiya says, if you don’t come now we may not be able to save the troops.
Prithvi gets up with great difficulty and tries to walk, he see the village ahead. He calls vaidji in a soft tone. The vaid sees Prithvi and walks towards him, he falls once more.

At his territory Ghori is laughing so hard, he is so delighted with the events. What steps the situation must have gone to. The poison must have taken the toll like insects on them. You have lost even before reaching the destination of the war grounds! Prithvi you have forgot that making enemy with Ghori will get you nowhere. You are nothing but lambs caught between foxes, "Tabai!”. Let’s head for the war grounds Ghori orders his army. I am sure before reaching the war grounds you will be running back to Dhilli! Hahah Ghori laughs some more.
Vaidji says we got the herbs, but time is less, I must start the treatment immediately, everybody come forward to help, he says. All gather around the vaid, he gives them different duties. Take the plant and start to make the concoction. Chand, Arjun are put on a cot and examined .
Mukhiya is concerned, he asks the vaid if Maharaj's troops will be okay?
We should be proud of him he has saved all of the civilians without thinking twice, we must save the troops now.

Om Namaha Shivaya. Om Namaha Shivaya. Om Namaha Shivaya. Sanyo chants, she has two lamps burning in her hands still, Om Namaha Shivaya. Roopali cannot bear it she cries, what is this? This is not the way to do it. If God wanted to listen he would do it anyway.
My request is this, so I must go to that extent. I have to avoid the swayamwar, tells Sanyo to her.
Jaichand is also praying, he says to the idol, I don't want her to go the wrong way, I just want to be a good father to her. The lamp that is lit goes off. The priest is astonished.
The priest informs Jaichand that this is a bad omen, can’t anticipate what will happen.
Jaichand leaves the room and asks the “Maha-manthri” if all the swayamwar preparations are in order or not?
Yes, they are he says. Suddenly the contents of a glass bowl falls on the ground and shatters which was in the corridor, it had caught onto Jaichand’s robe/shawl. It smashes and the contents spill everywhere.
The Minister says this is not good at all, something bad may happen.
Jaichand is greeted by Queen mother, but a servant by mistake drops a tray full of things on the floor and everything gets scattered all over the place.
What is this! It is not good, mother tells.
All the circumstances combined make Jaichand think. Jaichand comes to a conclusion that it would be better to avoid the swayamwar for the next 15 days, as per what the swami had told before. He says the preparations will continue as usual. The swayamwar will only be postponed 15 days.
Sanyo continues her chant, Om Namaha Shivaya. Om Namaha Shivaya. Om Namaha Shivaya.

The villagers gather around their Maharaj. Prithvi is on the cot, he moves his head. Maharaj has become well! Maharaj is okay, they say! Prithvi tries to get up. No Maharaj you still need to rest!
Vaidji where is Chand, Arjun? Nothing has happened to them?
Chand and Arjun walk to Prithvi's cot, with you nothing can happen to us, with a friend like Prithvi. They gather around Prithvi, the villagers are also around his cot.
Prithvi gets up, vaidji are our troops okay? Vaidji you saved my troops? Prithvi gets no answer. He turns his head and sees many of his men lying dead on the ground, kept in row. Prithvi is shocked and walks towards them. He kneels down in front of them in remorse. Prithvi walks to Sham-Prakash, then to Baldev, He remembers each and everyone’s words before going to war, next he kneels before Vikranth and touches his head to pay respects to all of them, he is in deep sympathy and remorse. Prithvi asks them all to forgive him! He cries, Arjun and Chand also shed tears. Prithvi wipes his eyes, Ghori I will punish you for this, a coward you are. I will respond to all your attacks in your style.
Sanyo continues her chants to the Lord Shiva, Om Namaha Shivaya. Om Namaha Shivaya.
Om Namaha Shivaya.
