Episode on Sunday, September 28, 2008

Jaichand had told Prithvi to remove his disguise. Prithvi removes his moustache and turban. It’s a good thing that you recognized me earlier before I left, otherwise even after coming here I would have felt sorry not being able to meet you.
Jaichand is angry, how dare you come here Prithvi!
I came to see how my father-in-law has made my preparations for the wedding.
“Kabardar!”, “kabaradar” if you dare to say father-in-law again to me! Jaichand is furious.
Then what will I call you Maharaj, Prithvi taunts Jaichand. Wife’s father is called father-in-law, isn’t it?
Ha! Jaichand shrugs, this is your dream Prithvi. It will remain a dream, I will never allow it to happen never!
It will happen, if you are suspicious then just wait till the swayamwar. The “var-mala” will fall on my neck, says Prithvi boldly.
Prithvi! Jaichand is even angrier, before that happens I will kill Sanyogita.
Even if you try to touch her, I will not give you a moment to repent Jaichand! Prithvi comes closer to Jaichand, so now I will take Sanyogita away right in front of you! This is my warning. If you can stop me then try to stop me!
They both look each other in the eye, Jaichand’s face is red with anger. Prithvi walks away.
Jaichand takes his sword and shouts stop Prithvi! Arghhhh! He swings the sword on Prithvi’s back. Prithvi turns around and covers himself with his sword, two swords clash and the fight is on! Both continuously hit with their lances. Prithvi pins Jaichand’s sword and pushes him behind. Jaichand makes another big swing at Prithvi, but again Prithvi holds him down with the sword and pushes him back in a circular motion. Jaichand tries to hit Prithvi again, Prithvi swings at his head, Jaichand ducks down, he misses. Jaichand also aims at his neck, Prithvi kneels down. Rapidly they both swing the lance to hit each other. Prithvi lunges forward Jaichand is on guard. Jaichand and Prithvi pin the sword upward, Jaichand lets go and tries to cut Prithvi, he twirls around to save himself. Jaichand tries at his head, Prithvi ducks down and tries his legs. Jaichand jumps upward. Prithvi and Jaichand pin their swords up.
Jaichand says in my presence you won’t be able to even reach her, understand!
Jaichand pulls his sword back and takes a lunge at Prithvi’s head again, Prithvi’s reflexes are so quick he ducks down. Jaichand aims at his legs once more, but Prithvi jumps up into the air, he misses. Jaichand makes two swings at Prithvi’s face, he misses him. Prithvi again pins his sword in the air he kneels. Jaichand takes advantage and kicks Prithvi in the chest, and he goes flying in the air backwards onto the ground. Jaichand tries to lunge the sword in his chest but Prithvi quickly rolls to the side. Prithvi gets up partially and hits back at Jaichand. Prithvi attacks with his sword but Jaichand gets a hold of Prithvi’s wrist so he cannot move, he glares into Prithvi’s eyes. Prithvi also pins Jaichand’s fist. They both hold onto that position for a minute. Prithvi does Arghhh! And pushes Jaichand away he falls backward, Prithvi’s sword swings on him and cuts his hand.
Jaichand screams ahhhh! He looks at his cut hand.
Prithvi also stops momentarily.
Jaichand’s guards see him injured and run towards Prithvi to get him.
Jaichand yells stop! He looks at his bloody fingers, nobody will come between us! He will die only by my hands! My hands! Jaichand once again lunges towards Prithvi with his sword. The swords clash again, Jaichand tries at Prithvi’s head but misses. Prithvi then punches Jaichand’s fist, which makes Jaichand lose his sword. Prithvi then kicks him, and he falls backward to the ground landing on his head like a little child. Jaichand tries to get up quickly, but Prithvi puts the sword near his face, he is cornered.
Now we will directly meet at the swayamwar, Prithvi warns him. He looks for an exit and runs to his horse. Jaichand gets up, and he and his guards run after him. Prithvi gets on the horse and rides away as fast as he can before they get him. Chand is also with Prithvi he rides with him side by side.
They all race behind him to catch them.
Jaichand yells, to his troops to increase the security around Rajkumari’s Sanyogita’s palace and if you even see Prithvi in the vicinity of the area kill him on the spot. Go! All the troopers run to the palace.
Jaichand shouts, Prithviraj Chauhan!

Forgive me Prithvi, Sanyogita is in her room writing her last message to him, I cannot tolerate this all anymore, and father is talking about forcing me, and I will not under any circumstance participate in the swayamwar. Even after my death, will not put the “var-mala” on anybody else, except on you. Sanyo writes on the pink scroll.

Prithvi and Chand race on in Kannauj, they race ahead to find their army. Prithvi follows the path, till they both reach the place where his troops are waiting, they are dressed in their disguises respectively according to the plan. Pundir and Arjun are present. Prithvi quickly asks Pundir have you people completed your tasks.
Pundir says yes, I have found out about Jaichand’s full army, where they keep all their weapons, how many troops there are and where each of them are positioned.
Arjun tells Prithvi I have found all the secret exits to leave Kannauj, they are dangerous, but away from Jaichand’s army.
That’s good you people wait here, by the time I will go and meet Sanyogita.
Pundir and Arjun give the green signal.
Prithvi tells Chand to accompany him, together they both ride to the Yamuna kinara palace.

Sanyo is completing her message, Prithvi I have come very close to my death, she takes the quill and ink and writes further, I want to tell you again that I love you more than I love myself, that I cannot live without you. Prithvi forgive me, she writes, forgive me she says again and looks at the scroll.
Roopali comes at the door and calls Rajkumari Sanyogita? A servant is with a tray. She gets no answer. Rajkumari Sanyogita? Roopali knocks on the door again.
Sanyo looks at the door and ignores.
Roopali asks Rajkumari Sanyo to open the door she continues to knock.
Sanyo sees the door shake but still no response by her.
Open the door!
The door will never open Roopali! Never!

Outside Prithvi is on his way, he and Chand race ahead. Prithvi ducks away from a branch.
Roopali pounds the door and asks her why have you locked the door, she knocks some more, while Sanyo cries inside. What do you plan to do?
Sanyo cries and looks at the ring on her bed, I cannot live a moment with out Prithvi, Roopali!

Prithvi and Chand ride fast on the horses they pass many trees.

Roopali tries to console Sanyo from behind the door, no Rajkumari Sanyogita, she cries also. For Gods sake don’t do anything to yourself!
Sanyo continues to write, and if God permits, in my next life we will definitely be one, this is all what I wanted to tell you, Sanyo cries more, tears roll down on her face.
Roopali continues to bang the door.
Sanyo looks at the ring kept on her bed she takes it in her hands and looks at which diamond to take.
Roopali continues to bang the door, she says listen to me!
Sanyo stares at the ring.

Outside Prithvi and Chand reach near the palace. They slow down and stop their horses. They both can see the palace gate clearly, all of Jaichand’s guards surround it. Prithvi looks at them and goes in another direction.

Jaichand returns to the palace, he remembers the fight
he just had with Prithvi. He wanders back and forth in his quarters. Jaichand’s informer enters the room Maharaj Ki Jai Ho! He bows.
Did you get any news of Prithvi?
No Maharaj, but all your army is spread around Kannauj.
Did you increase the protection around Sanyogita in the palace?
Yes Maharaj.
Sanyo's mother drops the tray down next to them they are interrupted. She picks the goods up that have fallen.
If Prithvi comes, he will not be spared alive tells the informer to Jaichand.
If Prithvi has reached, we would have got the message by now. You go now! And if that little bird comes in the vicinity of the palace, you inform me immediately.
Yes Maharaj, he leaves.
Jaichand walks over to Sanyo's mother and angrily asks her, has Prithvi found out where Sanyo has been locked up?
Sanyo’s Mother doesn't answer Jaichand at all.
Jaichand is even more furious and asks, Maharani Nayantara has Prithvi come here to meet you? She still doesn't answer him, Jaichand takes her tray and flings it into the air and yells no!
Maharani is shocked and frightened by Jaichand's anger. The contents of the tray are scattered everywhere. I will not spare your life Prithvi! Maharani watches Jaichand leave the room she is shocked.

Prithvi and Chand set out to search Sanyogita they are dressed in a “sadhu” disguise, they chant Alak Niranjan! Alak Niranjan! Alak Niranjan! They are dressed in 'kesri' loin cloth, they have “rudraksh mala” and carry the cymbals, they wear a beard and mustache, sandalwood paste is on their forehead, nobody will recognize their true identity. They both approach the Yamuna kinara palace where the guards are stationed, every few feet. Alak Niranjan! Alak Niranjan! Prithvi and Chand approach the gate.
The guard says Stop! Nobody is permitted to go inside he tells them.
Oh my child, veer fakir can go anywhere, Prithvi tells him.
Then go to the temple veer fakir, what are you doing here?
We are just coming from there child, there God has come in my dreams. He has told to save Rajkumari Sanyogita! Her life is in danger!
We are here for that work Baba, there is no reason for you to worry about.

Inside her room Sanyo looks at the idol.
Roopali knocks on the door, listen to me, she requests, Rajkumari Sanyogita.
Go, from here Roopali, just go from here!
Rajkumari Sanyogita I won't let you do anything, Rajkumari Sanyogita! Roopali is at the door.
Sanyo looks at the ring in her hand and looks at the Shiva idol.

The guards complain you have told us nonsense just go from here.
We will complete the work we have come for tells, Prithvi to the guard. If something happens to Rajkumari then we will be upset. Alak Niranjan! They both walk to the gate, the guards block them with their swords.
Looks like you won't listen to us this way.
The guard repeats, I have told you Rajkumari Sanyogita is doing well and to look after her we are present, he points the sword at Prithvi.
Roopali comes out of the palace and shouts somebody save Rajkumari Sanyogita! Her life is in danger, hurry fast she will die otherwise.
The guard asks what you are saying.
Roopali quickly tells she has locked herself in the room, she wants to commit suicide! Hurry! Roopali pleads to the guard.
See that I told you Rajkumari's life is in danger, so God has sent us here.
Forgive us Baba, just hurry and save her life the guard requests him.
Prithvi and Chand enter the palace, Roopali and the guards follow behind, they all run.
Prithvi runs into the hallway he limps as the wound on the sole of his feet hurt.
Sanyo has taken the ‘trishul’ from the idol and uses it to remove the diamond from the ring.
Prithvi reaches the door with the rest behind him. He knocks on the door, Rajkumari Sanyogita open the door Rajkumariji!
Sanyo tells them all to go away. I will take my life she cries, just go away!
Prithvi requests, just see once and open the door all will be okay!
Sanyo is successful in removing the diamond she holds it in her fingers.
Meanwhile Prithvi and Chand try to break the door to open it. They continuously pound the door with their shoulders, the door finally opens and they all rush inside the room. Prithvi is in front and walks inside to see Sanyo as she is ready to put the diamond in her mouth. Before she does it, Prithvi runs quickly and knocks the diamond out of her fingers, it falls on the rug.
Sanyo gives an angry look at the “sadhu”.
What were you trying to do Rajkumariji?
I wanted to kill myself!
Alak Niranjan! Says the “sadhu” and waves his hands. What is the reason that you wanted to give up your life?
Who are you to ask me such questions, Sanyo asks him angrily. I will do whatever I want! Sanyo tries to pick up the diamond, but the “sadhu” stops her. She screams, get out of my way! The “sadhu” blocks her with his palms. Who is this and how did you allow him to come inside Sanyo shouts at the guards! Take him away from here right now, and you all leave here too get out of here!
We will not go from her child, but yes the rest of them will have to go. The “sadhu” turns to the guards and tells them all to go out. To change Rajkumariji's mind I will have to chant the Maha Mruthuynjaya Mantra 108 times, then only her death will be avoided.
Nobody moves.
What are you people thinking? See if anything happens to Rajkumariji then assume you people are gone. Maharaj Jaichand will cut you all into pieces that it will be hard to count. Go from here he tells them. They all finally leave the room.
Sanyo tells the “sadhu” why don't you also go with them?
Chand comes back into the room.
First you tell why you wanted to commit suicide?
Sanyo is about to say something.
See you don't have to say anything, I can see it all in your eyes.
Sanyo becomes annoyed.
You love him so much?
How do you know?
I can see it all in your eyes, you want to give up your life for a person who doesn't even respect your love...
She interrupts him, how dare you comment on Prithvi!
He’s not worthy for you Rajkumariji, forget that stoned hearted person.
I told you not to tell me anything about him, Sanyo picks a pot and throws it on the “sadhu”.
The “sadhu’ moves away and it misses him he finally says “jungli bhilli” you haven't even changed.
Prithvi slowly peels off his mustache, then he removes the beard.
Sanyo finally recognizes him and softly says Prithvi?
Prithvi removes his wig and his actual self is revealed he raises his arms and says Sanyogita?
Sanyo rushes into his arms and hugs him they stand there together in an embrace.
