Sanyo gets ready for the swayamwar, servants are around her applying the turmeric, they smear it all over her legs and arms, her face wears a pleasant smile. Roopali gently rubs the turmeric on her arms and hands also.

In Prithvi's quarters of the palace in Kannauj the Chand, Pundir and Chand are present with Prithvi who is also getting ready and dresses up in fine clothes, he looks fabulous.
Chand says so what is it Prithvi? If sister-in-law saw this she would die watching you.
Arjun makes the final adjustment on his garment. Prithvi turns around to face everyone revealing himself. Prithvi is dressed magnificently and looks splendid in his clothes, even the false beard and mustache suits him well.

Sanyo is given a dose of incense smoke in her hair and body.

At the altar where the swayamwar will take place Prithvi's army disguised as gurus, swamis assemble and sit in their places.

Sanyo applies the eye makeup, wears the nose ring and ‘bindi’. She is ready and gets up from the dressing table, she sees mother and walks over to her. I will remember you afterwards mother.
Mother takes her hand in hers, so will I, you must....take care of yourself.
Sanyo nods yes with tears coming in her eyes, will you come and meet me in Dhilli mother?
Mother nods yes they both take a big final hug.

In Prithvi's camp, Arjun explains we should give you a hug because after that you won't have time for us anymore. Arjun and Chand also take a big hug from their King.
One spy disguised as Prithvi's swami hails "Maharaj Ki Jai Ho", the four look at him with doubt as he greets them.
So what happened?
Something terrible Maharaj, someone has freed Maharaj Surya Pratap from our arrest.
Prithvi and gang are shocked.

Karthikan is laughing now, so this is the fact, now just tell me when will Mhj. Surya Pratap be arriving here? Karthikan just got information from his guards that they found the real Mhj. Surya P. S.
He should be arriving any time now, says the guard.
He will come before the swayamwar? Karthikan asks.

In Prithvi's camp, Prithvi says if Surya P S, comes to the swayamwar before it starts, then our entire plans will be spoiled. Go and find out who has got him. Arjun is about to leave to do the work Prithvi has ordered, another undercover spy dressed as a swami enters. Arjun asks him what news have you brought in?
The troops who released Surya Pratap from our capture were from Karthikan's army.
Prithvi and gang are alarmed, Arjun tells the troop okay you can go. Now what are we to do Prithvi? The moment Surya P S reaches here all will end.
Prithvi remembers the plan he told Sanyo.

In the pavilion, Jaichand declares that today is a very special day in Kannauj for me, a happy day. So today I have decided that I want to share this happiness with all the public. I want to fill the people with happiness.
Karthikan is pacing back and forth because the swayamwar is about to start soon. I don’t understand why my people are taking so long in bringing him here? If he doesn’t come here in time, all that I have done so far will be wasted. Surya P S has arrived and stands in front of Karthikan. Karthikan looks at him he has come finally.

Again in Prithvi’s room a troop enters to inform the latest news. Maharaj, Mhj. Surya PS has arrived in the palace.
Arjun is annoyed now what are we to do?
Say something Prithvi, says Chand, what step do we take now? The situation has changed just in few moments.
Prithvi gets up from his seat and shouts NO! Nothing has been altered, everything will go accordingly as planned. I will definitely keep the promise I made to Sanyo, yes I will complete!

Karthikan and the real Surya P S have gone to meet Jaichand to reveal the truth. Every time he tried to tell Jaichand something his efforts went futile this time he has real proof. Karthikan introduces Krishnanagar’s real King, Maharaj Surya Pratap Singh.
Surya P S bows in front of Jaichand.
Karthikan continues, the imposter is none other than the Dhilli King, Maharaj Prithviraj Chauhan.
Jaichand comes to realization and is furious, he remembers Prithvi’s comment about the statue which justifies the truth.

Sanyo, says mother, let’s go my daughter. They both finish taking the blessings from God. They finish praying before the swayamwar starts. It’s time for the swayamwar now.
Sanyo smiles she sees Roopali waiting for her also, I am getting scared Roopali.
All brides become frightened like this before going to their in-laws.
Sanyo laughs really? How do you know? They both laugh and leave, mother has a serious look on her face.

Prithvi says I have another plan with me, his buddies are listening. Come fast, but first I will have to meet and inform Sanyo about the changes in the plans. They are interrupted, outside the room the 4 can hear Prithviraj Chauhan! Name called loudly.
Jaichand holds his sword ready, with him are Karthikan and Surya P S, and guards behind, they head directly to Prithvi’s room.
The four realize the situation.
Jaichand and everybody go inside the room nobody is there, the guards all search everywhere. Jaichand is furious, today I will not leave you alive Prithvi! Even if you hide in hell also we will find you and get you even from there! They could not find them. Jaichand orders his guards to search the entire palace, he must not be able to leave here alive. And if he is seen anywhere near the pavilion you must kill him there on the spot, Go!
All of the guards leave in search for Prithvi.
Prithvi is hiding in the ceiling above the pillar, he watches them secretly, they all leave. Prithvi jumps down and lands carefully on the floor, the other buddies also return from hiding. Prithvi says, I will definitely complete the promise I made Jaichand. I will take Sanyo away right in front of everybody during the swayamwar, even if the lightning strikes from the sky, Prithviraj Chauhan never goes back on what he says!

Sanyogita is accompanying her mother to go to the swayamwar. The arrangements have been made outside the palace. The sun shines brightly in the garden where it will take place. Mother guides her on the path with Roopali behind her. Sanyo is adorned with her jewels and fancy sari, she goes down the steps.
Jaichand along with Karthikan and Surya PS also approach the swayamwar grounds. All eligible Kings stand ready in a row for the most awaited moment. Jaichand gestures his hands to the two Kings with him, to take their positions in the garden, they bow to him and leave. Jaichand then walks to the altar to take a seat. He looks at the crowd and sits down.
Sanyo is coming with an entire group of women with her mother by her side, they walk slowly in the direction of the altar.
Jaichand declares the swayamwar officially be started now. He can see his daughter approaching down the aisle. Jaichand stands up and his daughter climbs the steps to reach the altar next to him, along with mother and Roopali. All four can see the crowd in front of them. Jaichand turns and looks at his daughter and says, today you have full freedom and entitled to select a life partner of your own choice.
Mother has a worried looks on her face.
Go ahead and select your life partner. Jaichand calls to the servant to bring the tray with the “varmala” to Sanyo.
Sanyo takes the “varmala” from the tray and holds it ready, she smiles and searches for Prithvi in the crowd of eligible Kings. She cannot see him anywhere she is not able to take any action.
Jaichand looks at her and says Rajkumar Sanyogita go ahead and select your groom.
Sanyo is worried she cannot see Prithvi anywhere she is in a dilemma, but has to follow her father’s orders also. Tears come in her eyes. Father, Maharaj Surya Pratap has not come? She holds the garland in her hand.
Jaichand reacts and quickly points out, there he is the real Krishnanagar’s Maharaj. Surya P S distinguishes himself from the crowd. Maharaj Surya Pratap, he informs his daughter.
Sanyo is in trouble, what she can do now. She holds the garland in her hands. Mother also has realized the truth now.
Go now and start the swayamwar, Jaichand repeats again to his daughter he knows he has put her in a fix.
Sanyo doesn’t move at all.
Go ahead and start the swayamwar, Jaichand says softly once more.
(Prithvi what has happened, where are you?) She thinks in her mind.

Prithvi is getting ready, he puts on his chest plate. Then he ties on the leg armor.
Sanyo has no choice but to proceed, she walks down the steps of the altar, with the “varmala” in her hands. Roopali accompanies her down while she sees all the Kings stationed in front. Sanyo comes alone to the aisle and stands, still cannot figure out what to do.
Prithvi puts on his arm plate and ties it tightly, then he puts on the belt around his waist.

Sanyo looks on and doesn’t move. Her father and mother see her. She finally moves on slowly.

Prithvi places the helmet on his head, he is ready for the swayamwar now. Prithviraj takes his sword and moves on to finish his work.
Sanyo has made it half way down the aisle with a terrified look on her face. She passes near Surya P S he bows down to her, no use.

Prithvi makes entry to the garden where the swayamwar is taking place, he slays two guards at the entrance. He walks ahead one more guard tries to stop him, hes gone too. More and more guards stationed in the area are now alerted they try to stop him too. Prithvi finishes them all off too, swords clash.
Sanyo stands alone in the middle of the aisle, she thinks, I will only put this ”varmala” on your neck Prithvi , nobody else’s. She turns around and faces he father again.
Rajkumari Sanyogita go ahead and select your groom.
Sanyogita turns around and walks ahead towards the statue of Prithvi that is kept outside at the end of the garden meant to insult Prithviraj and degrade him because he was not invited.
Jaichand can see his daughter isn’t following his orders. Once again he orders, Rajkumari Sanyogita!
The “muhurath” of the swayamwar lapses, decide fast! Didn’t you hear what I said! Select any one of the “maha-veer” Kings who is present here and complete the swayamwar! Jaichand is getting irritated.
Sanyo again turns to face her father, for me father there is only one “veer” Maharaja, the King of Dhilli, Maharaj Prithviraj Chauhan!
Jaichand heard what she said, mother watches so does Roopali.
Prithvi is engaged in fighting off the guards, he eliminates them all and gets entry to go to the swayamwar.

Sanyo warns her father, you can do whatever you want, I will put this “varmala” only on his neck. Sanyo turns and looks at the golden statue of Prithvi and walks directly to it.
Jaichand is very angry.
Sanyo passes by all the kings, everybody is watching her.
She reaches the statue and pauses, she looks at it with the garland ready in her hand. After a moment Sanyo finally raises her arm and places the garland on the statue very carefully.
Jaichand is furious he yells Sanyogita! Today I will finish your life! He gets his sword in hand and walks down the steps, and goes directly to Sanyogita, mother is worried.
Pundir, Arjun and Chand are waiting among the guests secretly they can see Jaichand coming with sword in hand to get his daughter.
Sanyo has her eyes closed, Prithvi comes behind the statue and whispers Sanyogita?
Sanyo opens her eyes and sees him, Prithvi? Please take me away from here.
Jaichand has come, he lifts his sword in the air to strike Sanyo, Prithvi quickly comes out from behind the statue and catches his arm to stop the lance. Jaichand goes arghhhh!
Prithvi confronts him they stand face to face, all three of them together.
