Episode on Friday, October 10, 2008

Everybody is assembled at the Darbar, all kings stand side by side in a line.
Sanyo and Jaichand walk down the aisle to meet each of them and introduce themselves.
One King had presented the 9 lakh necklace.
Sanyo doesn't even respond to him her attention is elsewhere.
Jaichand is apologetic to him, looks like my daughter Rajkumari Sanyogita has tired out at this time. Now can I only meet you all at the evening dinner and functions?
It's okay Maharaj by the time evening comes her tiredness will subside, tells the King.
Jaichand calls his daughter to come.
(No she says, actually father has hidden the truth from all of you, I am not really tired at all but the truth is, I have already married Maharaj Prithviraj Chauhan of Dhilli.
There is some confusion in the ‘darbar’, the kings are shocked to here such words.
So it’s better you all left, otherwise if Maharaj Prithviraj finds out about all this, he will not spare you.
Jaichand interrupts her, don't listen to anything she said, her mind is out of control these days. I have a remedy for this, I will arrange the swayamwar in the evening itself.)
Sanyo shrieks no! She was imagining she said all that.
Jaichand asks her what happened daughter?
Sanyo thinks for a moment nothing father, looks like I am really tired.
Its okay, father says and pats her, you go to your room to rest, go.
Sanyo leaves, she thinks that she should be more careful in how she replies and reacts henceforth, otherwise father could get a doubt and Prithvi's entire plan will go wasted. Under any conditions I will have to make sure the swayamwar takes place only after 3 days.

Jaichand asks his personnel, have all the invitees Rajas and Maharajas arrived for the swayamwar?
Yes Maharaj everybody except Krishnanagar's Maharaj Surya Pratap Singh.
Where can he be? Jaichand thinks.

Maharaj Surya Pratap Singh is making his journey to the Kannauj palace with his entire group, the guards and ministers. I have heard of Rajkumari's beauty, till today I have never seen her or Maharaj Jaichand. After reaching Kannauj these wishes will come true, he says. Come lets go fast we are already late for the swayamwar
They are suddenly confronted by the 3.
What is this all he asks them? Who are you people?
Chand says, we have been sent to welcome you.
We are in no need of such welcome its better you clear the road. We are already late for the swayamwar tells Surya P S.
Pundir responds, there is no use of going there.
Why?
Arjun tells, that’s because you must have heard that Rajkumari Sanyogita belongs to only Maharaj Prithviraj Chauhan.
Yes, I have also heard that Prithviraj Chauhan was not sent an invitation. So that means Rajkumari Sanyogita is mine only, only mine.
Prithviraj comes out in front and shows himself, really?
Prithviraj Chauhan?
Prithvi summons his army to surround Surya P S's group and walks over to him. Prithvi pulls him down from the horse by grabbing his ‘kurtha’. He pulls him and says Sanyogita is mine, was mine and will stay mine, he makes himself clear. How dare you take her name! Prithvi removes Surya’s garments.
Surya P S has been stripped and tied up, guards have been kept on him to prevent his escape.
Prithvi and gang leave for the Kannauj palace dressed in their garments to attend the swayamwar. Prithvi gets on his horse to leave.
Pundir tells Prithvi, take this Maharaj Surya Pratap, the invitation for you to go to the swayamwar.
Arjun and Chand grin.
Pundir gets on his horse, all set forth to the Kannauaj palace.
While leaving Chand warns and comments on Surya P S, Dhilli's naresh Prithviraj Chauhan is leaving to get his Sanyogita, till that time you relax here, understand.

In the palace Sanyogita gets restless in her quarters. Roopali meets her.
Father has lined a strange looking crowd for the swayamwar, with faces that make you laugh.
Roopali assures her that there is nothing to worry about, you are already married to Maharaj Prithvi.
Yes the marriage was performed already Roopali but I still will have to tolerate all this, till the send off. It’s not that easy, I still have to meet all these Rajas and Maharajas whom I don't want to even see.
Roopali sits down right beside her, just don't worry, it’s only 3 more days for the swayamwar, and you will only have to go with Maharaj Prithvi, right.
But how Roopali, how? You know how father has arranged security in the palace. How will it be possible for Prithvi to enter the palace in the first place?
You can say that, but I trust him very much.
Oh yeah really?
Yes, if you had seen those fellows you would also become "fida". Roopali smiles, what they are and their righteousness and capabilities, his eyes....
Oh yeah! You are telling me? Sanyo tells in a jealous tone. Roopali runs away while she chases her they finally run to the bed and sit. They both laugh.
Your Prithvi will come, Rajkumari Sanyo, breaking all the world’s walls. He will come for sure to get you.

Prithvi and gang have reached the steps of Kannauj palace on horse, they halt, with Prithvi in front. The 4 get off their horses and walk towards the guards.
One guard asks for identification.
Chand replies, (they are all in disguise so nobody recognizes them) Krishnanagar's Maharaj Surya Pratap Singh.
Pundir hands over the invitation to the guard.
The guard takes it and reads it, he crosschecks and nods. Come Maharaj, welcome to Kannauj, Maharaj has been waiting for you, he shows him the steps.
Prithvi says yes, I too have become anxious to meet him. All four make their way up the stairs.
Jaichand is waiting at the top, come Maharaj come all the guests have come, I had been waiting for you for a long time.
Sorry Maharaj for coming a little late.
Jaichand smiles and nods.
I had to make special arrangements for Rajkumari Sanyogita before coming.
I am very happy to see you here Maharaj.
Let God continue your happiness, says Prithvi aka SPS.
Come! Jaichand requests them he doesn't know their real identity.
No says Prithvi, first I want to meet Rajkumari Sanyogita.
Jaichand smiles.
I have heard about her beauty, will I be able to get her "darshan"?
Yes, yes why not, Jaichand smiles, she will also be thrilled to meet you.
Correct, she will be thrilled the most just to meet me says Prithvi confidently.
Come says Jaichand, he leads them into the palace in the corridor. All four walk till Prithvi sees a golden statue of himself, they halt.
Jaichand notices them seeing it, walks to it and says this is my special "darban" Maharaj Prithviraj Chauhan of Dhilli.
Prithvi and his 3 friends are annoyed by the insult but have to keep quiet about it anyways. Prithvi comments why did you think of this?
That's because I have a lot of justifications to make with Prithvi.
Prithvi tightens his fist keeping control of his emotions, he takes one step forward towards Jaichand and says to him, then why don't you confront him directly, what will you get by doing such degrading acts?
Jaichand gives a chuckle and looks at Prithvi aka Surya P S, and says looks like you have some special connection with Dhilli 's Maharaj Prithvi's figure. Perhaps a very extraordinary connection?
No, no nothing like that Maharaj, its just that, my father-in-law to be must keep his pride and self respect, that's all I wish.
Jaichand is marveled and pleased with those words, excellent! You have good thoughts. I am very sure that Rajkumari Sanyogita will be happy to meet you, come let's go. Jaichand leads the way.
They enter through the door, Prithvi tells his buddies to wait behind here. They both go ahead.

I will not get ready at all, and will not celebrate anything, shouts Sanyo, go and take these things back, she orders. The servant has brought all her things to wear for the swayamwar.
The servant leaves and a guard walks into her quarters. Rajkumariji, Maharaj Jaichand brings Krishnanagar's Maharaj Surya Pratap Singh to introduce you to him.
I don't want to meet anyone she shouts on him. Go and tell them.
Jaichand and Prithvi are on their way.
Another servant brings a tray to her.
I have told you already that I will not wear these things, she throws a shawl into the air!
The shawl lands on Prithvi's head, he removes it slowly.
Jaichand introduces his daughter, this is Rajkumari Sanyogita.
Sanyogita jerks her neck to look at him.
But Prithvi is still polite, he smiles and nods at her even after the shawl landed on his face.
And this is Krishnanagar's Maharaj Surya Pratap Singh.
Sanyo doesn't looks at him.
Prithvi grins.
Sanyo, in his kingdom there are 4 big cities and the stories about his bravery are told in far off lands.
Prithvi looks at Sanyo.
That's good, his bravery will be useful for you, and your bravery will be useful for him too.
Jaichand is angry with her, for that silly response.
Prithvi sides with Sanyo and says, what she said is correct, once she selects me in the swayamwar, then Krishnanagar and Kannauj will be one, obviously.
Jaichand is pleased and smiles he nods his head.
Prithvi slowly walks over to her and hands back the garment which she threw in the air and puts it back on the tray, the servant still holds. I like your thoughts he says to her.
I am tired and would want to rather sleep, she replies back rudely.
Sanyogita! Jaichand is annoyed by her behavior.
Prithvi says its okay she will rest for a while and everything will be alright. Prithvi walks back to Jaichand’s side.
Jaichand says come, they both leave the room, Prithvi looks behind to see her once more.

Mother along with more servants carrying trays, enter Sanyo's room. Mother sits beside her, Sanyogita its time to get ready my daughter, you already know of father's anger. Mother takes out the things to show, from the trays one by one. He has ordered from all over the world the fancy and exquisite garments and ornaments made by specialized artists all just for you. Sanyo see these! Mother takes out and shows the special Kashmiri silk 'lenga' and Dacca's velvet veil. See these ornaments daughter! See the intricate design on the ornaments, your father has ordered each and everyone from all over the world.
Sanyo is growing irritated by this all, it doesn't matter from where it has been brought from, I have nothing to do with it. Why can't you make an understanding that my marriage has already taken place with Prithvi. I don't want any of this, she chucks the garments and ornaments on the floor.
One bracelet rolls all the way to Jaichand's feet. He has returned to her room alone, and watches her behavior as he enters.
Mother sees him.
Sanyo is not aware and continues talking, he has brought a collection of strange things from the entire world, I will not go in front of the silly looking line-up. Why can't father understand simply?
Jaichand is listening to the whole conversation he walks up behind her, she is still unaware of it.
Why can't he see in front of his fake glamour? If father wishes this only, then so be it, I will also show them in a ridiculous way, how much they are all big fools and idiots. If I do not drive them all away by tonight my name isn't Sanyo! Tell me where to go mother, I will go in front of them in these same clothes I am already wearing. Sanyogita finally turns around to see her father, the expressions on her face change.
Jaichand responds you will now get ready and you will sit near everybody! And if you even try to do something ridiculous, remember this, I will forget completely that you are my daughter.
But Maharaj! Mother intervenes.
Enough Queen enough this has all happened because of you, you have spoiled her by your love, and attention, that she has become ready to throw dirt on her own father today and degrade me! You have only done this! You have given her love that has made her into a spoiled brat! Enough Queen! I have already seen enough of your motherly love. From now on whatever I say, you will listen, he scolds his daughter. Get her ready as fast as possible, you understand it?
Tears roll down mother's face, Sanyo tells her not to cry. I will get ready now, okay? I can at least do this for you.
Jaichand is listening with a stern look in his eyes.

In the ‘darbar’ the Kings discuss among themselves and chit chat. One exclaims that he promised Jaichand that if the "varmala" falls on his neck I will build a kind of palace that nobody has ever seen before or heard of.
Prithvi and gang can hear him talk, they walk nearby in his vicinity.
Another King says I have already started to build a palace for Sanyogita because I know already she will put the "varmala" on my neck only.
Prithvi listens to that too.
Another King says I have already declared half of my kingdom to Rajkumari Sanyogita during the introduction ceremony.
Prithvi is listening to all these promises made by the Kings, he and his friends are not happy with them. Pundir and Arjun look at each other. They both walk over to another king. Arjun tells Pundir did you hear that?
What asks Pundir.
I will tell you but, be brave, he whispers to Pundir, what were you saying about Maharaj Gangadar and Maharaj Somaya?
Pundir does shhhhhh!.
Prithvi watches them both.
Talk softly Gangadar Maharaj is standing behind you. And if he listens then he will start the battle here. whispers Pundir.
Tell me more, this Gangadar talks about of "veertha", Arjun continues to gossip.
Yes? Questions Pundir.
Yes says Arjun, once he sees the sword he becomes fearful, he laughs.
Prithvi is amused by their drama and laughs.
Pundir says, go and see there Maharaj Somaya. They both have moved behind him and gossip, Pundir exclaims that Gangadar Maharaj was saying Maharaj Somaya only has fought one war where he threw the sword and ran away.
Arjun laughs, and says loudly, what you are saying!
Gangadar and Somaya have been ridiculed by Pundir and Arjun. Both have heard each other’s comments that Pundir and Arjun said deliberately behind their backs, now both kings look at each other angrily.

Mother is getting her daughter ready and does the finishing touches to her hair. Sanyo looks at the mirror of the dressing table.
Jaichand returns back into the room and asks Queen, is Sanyo ready?
Yes Maharaj.
Come then, people are waiting, and you both mother and daughter listen here and understand now, all the guests invited are reputed Rajas and Maharajas, and if their self respect is insulted even a little bit, then there is nobody else worse than me. They all leave the room, Jaichand leads the way out, mother and Sanyo behind him. After taking few steps, Jaichand stops and turns around, he reaches forward and wipes off the tears on mother's face. On your face should be a smile not tears, I don't want any disorder or confusion in front of everyone in the ‘darbar’, you understand?
Jaichand pulls Sanyo away by her arms into the 'darbar'.
Prithvi waits for Sanyo to come.

Episode on Sunday, October 5, 2008

Chand and Arjun have already collapsed, Prithvi is the last man left of the trio fighting Jaichand's entire army.
Prithvi is growing weary of fighting on his own for a long time, fighting most of Jaichand's troops, a one man show, using two swords at the same time. He has eliminated all of them.
Another batch of Jaichand's troops have come and surround Prithvi, they get ready to attack him. Prithvi can barely manage to stand up, he is completely exhausted. The troops thrash him with the swords on his back and around his body.

Sanyo still looks at the idol with hope.

Prithvi cannot fight the new troops surrounding him, all alone anymore he is exhausted.

Sanyo looks and prays to the Shiva idol.

Prithvi drops down on his knees, just manages to fight in that position. He doesn't want to give up.
Jaichand is pleased and grins as he can see that Prithvi is slowly fading away. He laughs at him.
Prithvi puts all his strength that is left in his body to stay alive. He is real tired now.

Sanyo still prays in the palace.

Jaichand anticipates victory he looks at Prithvi and smiles. You made a big mistake in dealing with us Prithvi! A very big mistake! He points at him.
Prithvi is unable to stay in an upright position. He uses the sword in his hand to give himself support to stand, he staggers to stay up, but no use he finally falls down to the ground.

Sanyogita cries in front of the idol in hopes Prithvi will be saved. The bell sways to and fro.

Prithvi is on the ground totally exhausted, many of Jaichand’s troops come near to him ready to take orders from their King, what to do next.
Jaichand is laughing at Prithvi now, because he thinks Prithvi is doomed.
The troops stand near the fallen Prithvi and laugh at him because they all finally succeeded in overtaking him.
Prithvi lays helpless on the ground he sees them laugh at him. He is so tired and wounded that he cannot get up to save himself anymore, his friends too are also down.
The troops finish laughing and raise their swords for the final.

Sanyo chants mantras in hopes to save Prithvi.

Prithvi is down but conscious, he looks at them.
Arghhh! Jaichand's troops are just about to slay Prithvi.
Prithvi looks in horror at them, they come closer to surround him, and he expects his last.
Many of Jaichand’s troops aim their swords ready to plunge it in Prithvi's body at the same time, but suddenly arrows hit them and they are all killed, instead. Prithvi is saved from Jaichand's troops momentarily.
Prithvi still looks at them in confused state of mind, they have all dropped their swords suddenly and shake with the arrows pinned in their backs. One by one the troops near Prithvi collapse down to the ground. The situation has been reversed Prithvi watches them all fall in surprise, he thought it was his end.
Jaichand is also shocked of the sudden change in the situation.
More arrows pierce the other troops.
It’s Pundir, he has come with the army he runs down the hill. Prithvi’s army continues to fire arrows.
Jaichand looks around to see what has happened.
Prithvi is relieved to see his buddy, he has finally come after such a long time. He has saved Prithvi's life, Prithvi takes a deep breath.

Sanyo still is worried about the situation she continues to pray.

Pundir races in Prithvi’s direction.
Prithvi is safe now, he watches his army come to save and protect him and his buddies. He closes his eyes with relief. The army of Dhilli go directly to attack Jaichand's forces, they chase after them. Pundir makes his way to fight.
Jaichand watches his troops fight, he waits there on the hill and does nothing himself.
Pundir needs to get to Prithvi. He has to fight some troops, he kills them, then some more attack him.
Jaichand can see now he is outnumbered by the Dhilli troops.
Prithvi gains his strength back psychologically, he is happy, and thinks of getting up.

Prayers continue in the palace, Sanyo’s eyes are closed in chants.

Prithvi can see now that his side is on the verge to win he makes efforts to get up.

Roopali comes back into Sanyo's room she calls Rajkumari Sanyogita! Sanyo opens her eyes. Roopali runs to her and Sanyo gets up to learn of the developments. Roopali says, Maharaj Prithvi's army has finally arrived.
Sanyo is overwhelmed and looks back at the idol to thank God, she folds her palms and cries with relief.

Prithvi is standing and watches his army drive Jaichand's forces away, up the hill. Prithvi yells, where are you running! If you have courage fight with me!
Jaichand is annoyed, he scolds at his troops where are you running all! He can see the Dhilli army driving his troops away. Fight them he shouts!

Arjun has gotten up Chand makes efforts to get up too. Prithvi can barely speak he faces Jaichand once again, that’s good, you also run away like them Maharaj Jaichand! Let it not be, that I cannot get your blessings on the day of swayamwar. RUN AWAY FROM HERE! Prithvi shouts at the top of his lungs.
Jaichand responds, he points his sword at Prithvi, he still has no shame and says on the swayamwar day even if I see you near the palace, I will colour my sword with your blood and sit in my palace in peace understand me Prithvi! Jaichand rides away on his horse like a coward.
Prithvi smiles, justice was served he gathers around his buddies they are all well. Prithvi looks at Pundir and puts his hand on his shoulders, where were you Pundir?
It took me a while to come to you, Jaichand had attacked us and came over here. The group of army I was with were are all wounded in his attack, it took longer to organize and bring the second group of army here, forgive me Prithvi.
Prithvi tells Pundir its okay, we still have to go further and fight and face more situations like this lets go! We have to prepare for the swayamwar, let’s go from here. The 4 leave.
It is night they are near a secluded hill in Kannauj. The vaid finishes bandaging Prithvi's wounds, he leaves. Chand and Arjun bring trays of food, Chand requests Prithvi to eat something.
Not interested, Chand.
All three of his buddies sit next to him on the ground with plates of food.
Looks like the love of sister-in-law has nullified your hunger, Chand taunts.
Prithvi smiles a little.
Meeting her once made you become like this, when she will come to Dhilli, God only knows what will happen then, comments Arjun.
They all laugh together including Prithvi.

Sanyo is in her room she does the "abhishek" on the Shiva idol. She happily pours the pot of milk on him.
Roopali enters her room and sits next to her while Sanyo decorates the idol with some marigold.
Sanyo smiles, you came? When did you come here?
I have come here for some time but you have been lost in the thoughts of Maharaj Prithvi for so long that you don't have attention on anything else.
Sanyo laughs, no, what it really is, God has reunited me with Prithvi and I was caught up in his adornments.
Yes, I know tells Roopali they both smile together.

Prithvi stands quietly on the hill alone looking at the moon. He remembers the "feras" and how he put the garland on Sanyogita when he completed the marriage rites. He visions himself putting the 'sindhoor' on her forehead.

The four have assembled to an isolated location near a hill to discuss secretly their plans.
Has the preparations for swayamwar been completed? Prithvi asks his buddies. They all have bandages on their bodies, they have cleaned up and wear new garments.
Is my army ready to face and fight in any situation?
Pundir says yes! We are ready to respond to any attacks of Kannauj he says confidently.
Now you can easily go to the swayamwar without any doubts, we promise you tells Arjun to Prithvi. Jaichand will not be able to touch you or sister-in-law at all.
Prithvi pats him.
They are suddenly interrupted by and old man with a walking stick he says water! He walks near by. Water!
The 4 watch him.
The man walks directly to Prithvi, water, he asks again.
Prithvi takes him in his arms, bring water fast!
Arjun runs to get it.
Prithvi asks the old man to be brave, water is coming for you.
Arjun gives a cup of water to Prithvi quickly, but before Prithvi can administer it, the old man dies in his lap. All four look at him in shock how did this happen.
Prithvi shouts Baba!...Baba! Baba drink the water!
The troops have now gathered around to see what has happened.
Prithvi gently puts the old man on the ground.
One troop tells, Maharaj this is a very bad omen.
Prithvi looks at him. His buddies don't understand what to do now.
A very bad omen! God only knows what will happen! Maybe a very bad circumstance! The trooper warns.
Prithvi and his buddies look at the troop, means what do mean by that?
Maharaj in our village there is a saying, that if somebody drinks water from you and dies in your hands, it means that a very bad situation will arise. Maybe somebody will die.
Prithvi becomes serious the word death rings in his mind. Prithvi remembers the prophecy of the psychic lady and his dream about Pundir.
Pundir consoles Prithvi not to worry and think about the future predictions.
His 3 friends become serious.
Pundir tells him, see I am alright, till now nothing has happened to me. Also nothing will happen to me ahead.
It’s not the problem you say.
Then what is it?
Prithvi comments sarcastically, I have already lost Sanjam. (Prithvi always brings up that topic).
Prithvi try to understand me....
They argue and Arjun suddenly collapses. Chand goes to his side. Arjun! Shouts Prithvi, he falls down on the ground. Prithvi again shouts, Arjun!
Arjun says ouch, he holds his chest, his head is in Prithvi's lap, eyes closed.
Open your eyes! Shouts Prithvi. Arjun! Arjun!
Prithvi....looks like the future prediction was not meant for Pundir, but about me.
Prithvi has a very worried look on his face. No Arjun, nothing will happen to you, don't believe in such things. Nothing will happen to you, nothing!
Arjun comes back to normal and gets up and laughs, leaving his friends puzzled. See, Maharaj Prithviraj Chauhan has all the answers but still worries. Arjun taunts him he was pretending to be sick and did a drama in front of everybody to prove his point. Arjun looks at Prithvi and laughs some more.
Prithvi is relieved that he is okay, if you try this again I will kill you myself! Prithvi gives him a small thump in the back.
Okay Maharaj, Arjun apologizes. They all smile.
You know all of you are like a part of me.
Okay, but you have given our lives up for the sake of sister-in-law, Arjun laughs, and they all laugh together at Arjun’s comment.
Chand says okay then forget it, you have gotten married, at least we must celebrate the marriage.
Yes, says Pundir, we will all celebrate here and there Maharaj Jaichand will celebrate for you in his palace.

Jaichand comes to the Yamuna kinara palace and rushes into Sanyo's room. He goes directly to Sanyo and asks, did somebody come here and meet you?
No answer from her.
I am asking you something Sanyogita! Give me an answer! Did Prithvi come here?
No answer from her.
Jaichand claps to call the guards, one comes rushing to his side.
Did Prithvi come here?
No Maharaj, nobody had come here. Only a Baba came here.
Baba? (Jaichand remembers Prithvi wore a Baba outfit when he fought).That was Prithvi in disguise of a Baba! How did you allow him to come inside! Get out of my site!
Jaichand looks at Sanyo, and you, I have come to take you back to the palace with me. You will stay there till the swayamwar! Under my discretion! And also you will participate in the other preparations that are left.
Sanyo finally breaks her silence, what preparations?
The preparations for the swayamwar and your marriage.
Sanyo gets up from the bed, for whose marriage you’re talking about? My marriage has already taken place with Prithvi.
Jaichand is shocked to hear those words.
Now only the send-off ceremony is left and that will happen in front of your eyes on the day of swayamwar.
Jaichand is furious with that response. If Prithvi even dares to come to the swayamwar, remember this, from our palace will go your "dholi" on top of his corpse, understand it, and come now. Jaichand yanks her arms and drags her away.
She resists.
Come with me! Come, Jaichand pulls her into the hallway.
No father, she pleads, leave me, let me go father, she cries. Sanyo clings to a drape, he pulls her away, no father, I don't want to come. Jaichand pulls her arms roughly, let me go father, she cries more. Sanyo tries to take a grip of a pillar to stop her father, but no use he pulls her forcefully she has to let go, no father, she cries.

Prithvi was sleeping by a tree outside, he suddenly wakes up and exclaims, Sanyogita? Prithvi remembers how Sanyo was worried about her father’s tricks.
Chand taps his shoulders, what is it Chand?
We got the news that Maharaj Jaichand has forcefully taken Sanyogita back to the palace and he wants her to take part in all the swayamwar activities, tells Chand.
Arjun is nearby and listening he is happy, isn't this all good? What I think is that you should also participate in all the activities with sister-in-law too.
Prithvi is confused what are you talking about Arjun? Jaichand won't allow me to even come near the palace and you are talking about going inside it.
You cannot go inside, so what, Krishnanagar's Maharaj Surya Pratap Singh can go right?
Krishnanagar's Maharaj Surya Pratap Singh? What are you saying Arjun?
Arjun giggles, you just get ready to complete and perform the marriage rites, leave the rest to the fun. The 3 buddies laugh and walk away, leaving Prithvi puzzled.

The swayamwar function is about to start. In the Kannauj palace Jaichand introduces Sanyogita to some of the eligible Kings. This is Rajkumari Sanyogita, he leads his daughter forward, come my daughter he says politely to her. This is the King of Sitapur Maharaj Jaibund.
The King bows to her.
Jaichand continues, his kingdom is filled with gold mines, understand that half of the gold that comes from Bharat come from his kingdom.
The King says something to her, but Sanyo isn’t paying attention to him, she is in her thoughts, he offers some gold ornaments as token to her.
Jaichand gets annoyed by her ignorance, he says come.
They walk further into the pavilion, this is King of Maniknagar Pratap Maharaj Shakti Singh. In his kingdom they have expensive pearls and rubies.
Rajkumariji I have been uneasy, waiting all these years to just get a chance to take a glance at you, he complements her.
Sanyo thinks in her mind, then I will be troubled my entire life, she remembers how Prithvi said he wanted to take her away in front of everyone and she will put the 'varmala' only on Prithvi.
Shakti Singh gives her a gift, 9 lakh necklace of gold on behalf of his Kingdom to her.
Jaichand nods yes and is grateful.

The 4 hide behind some bushes and spy in the darkness. They watch as some King passes by.
Arjun introduces the person in front on the horse, this is Krishnanagar's Maharaj Surya Pratap Singh.
Prithvi eyes him.

Episode on Saturday, October 4, 2008

Prithvi and Sanyogita have gotten married, they finish the rites. Now nobody can break this relation says Prithvi, no "aandhi", not a storm, nobody can. They both hug each other. Now are you happy?
Sanyo smiles.
Chand and Roopali are happy they smile too.
Prithvi says now you can wait till the swayamwar.
Sanyo replies what swayamwar I can wait for you in next life, over and over.
Prithvi holds her head and hugs her again.

Jaichand comes face to face with Pundir, what is it Maharaj?
Vacate the road! We have to go a head.
But today it’s my friend’s marriage, Maharaj, tells Pundir. The marriage ceremony gives this opportunity to enjoy. We are all dancing and celebrating to bring the friend’s bride, today nobody will stop.
Jaichand points his sword at Pundir. I am telling you move away from here!
This is a chance to live Sarkar, just wait a little bit more, we will go ourselves Pundir, tells Jaichand politely.
Jaichand doesn't care and raises his sword on Pundir, your blood will flow he yells.
Arjun is moving fast on his horse he makes his way to get to Prithvi to alert him that Jaichand is coming. He rides on in the forest.

In the palace Prithvi and Chand get ready to return back they put back their moustaches and wigs, then walk out immediately. Sanyo runs behind Prithvi and hugs him from behind, she has tears in her eyes and says, I am getting scared Prithvi.
Prithvi turns around and tells her not to worry, I will meet you in the swayamwar, he smiles and nods his head. Prithvi tells Roopali to take care of her. He and Chand leave the room, leaving Sanyo alone.
Prithvi peeps his head out of the gate, he and Chand exit the palace. There are guards at the gate. They both pass by the guards.
Go children, I have saved Rajkumari Sanyogita's life, our work is over we will go now "Alak Nirajan"! They both leave the palace surroundings and walk ahead into the forest. Arjun has come, he meets them both. Prithvi says Arjun?
Arjun doesn’t waste time and says, Maharaj Jaichand is on his way here.
Prithvi and Chand remove their fake moustaches, Prithvi says we must go from here, fast.
Somebody from elsewhere calls out Maharaj!
Prithvi turns and sees it’s one of his troop’s calling him. The troop limps and holds his chest, he is wounded and calls out Maharaj, again.
Arjun recognizes him, he had come with Pundir.
With Pundir? Where, asks Prithvi.
The 3 run to see what has happened to the trooper he comes and falls in Prithvi's lap.
The man says ahhh! Pundir! Pundir!.....
Arjun looks around if anybody else is there.
He.. He... to Pundir ...Maharaj Jaichand has...
Prithvi, Chand and Arjun try to find out what he wants to say they all listen to him he is wounded badly and in pain.
Ahhh...Pundir! Pundir! Pundir! Pundir! That is all the trooper says only Pundir's name, he is unable to finish the sentence, he dies on Prithvi's lap. Prithvi pats his cheek to revive him, but no use. Prithvi looks up to hear horse neighing above the hill, he can see somebody approaching, its Jaichand and his army. Arjun and Chand also can see. In front of them more troops come. The 3 stand up to see more and more troops come they are all alone.
Jaichand is in front and glares at them his sword pointed in their direction. Jaichand specially looks at Prithvi.
Prithvi shouts where Pundir is!
Leave it about your friend, see your own game Prithvi, your own game! You had warned me before, now you will not leave here alive!
Fine Jaichand since you have already decided to play 'Holi' with blood, then so be it!
I had already warned you before, in spite of that you still had the courage to meet Sanyogita.
What courage have you seen of mine Jaichand! You will soon see my real manliness when I take Sanyogita away right in front of you on the day of the swayamwar!
Jaichand is angry and raises his sword he yells Prithviraj Chauhan! You won't even be alive to see that day! Attack them! Jaichand orders his troops to come and go after the 3.
The 3 watch, slowly the troops come towards Chand, Prithvi and Arjun and face them. Groups of troops gradually surround Chand, Arjun and Prithvi.
Jaichand watches them all.
Prithvi quickly asks Arjun, why didn't you bring Pundir with you?
Pundir had taken the army to stop Jaichand in the middle of his path, from coming here. That was the plan.
Then where has he gone?
Chand says then maybe Jaichand has...
No, no...Nothing can happen to him says Prithvi.
Prithvi how can the three of us fight against all of them asks Chand, he is worried.
Prithvi takes a look at Jaichand’s entire army, we will fight them Chand.... He looks at them again we will fight them all, till we die. Har Har Mahadeo! Shouts Prithvi.
Har Har Mahadeo! Har Har Mahadeo! The three cheer.
Jaichand orders, to attack! Many troops strike on the 3 with their swords. Chand, Arjun and Prithvi pin all their swords in the air, then they push them away with all their might. They all fall down backward like deck of cards.
The next group tries to attack them, the fight is on. Swords clash each other. Prithvi kicks one and thrashes another so does Chand then Arjun does also. Prithvi uses all his strength to beat one after another.
Jaichand watches.
Prithvi jumps into the air he kills two other troops at the same time. Prithvi attacks others, he makes one troop fly in the air. Prithvi kicks another away.

Sanyo is in her room she looks at the mirror and smiles she touches her bindi. She is unaware of the fight that has started outside. Sanyo remembers how Prithvi put the "sindhoor" on her, she laughs to herself. She looks at her palms and remembers her "feras".
Roopali calls and comes in the room, Rajkumari Sanyogita!
What has happened Roopali?
Maharaj Jaichand has come here with his army. Roopali pants and says and,.. And the army has surrounded Maharaj Prithvi and his friends.
Sanyo is shocked to hear the news, no it cannot be. I won't let anything happen to Prithvi. Sanyo runs out of her room.
Roopali calls Rajkumari Sanyogita, Rajkumari Sanyogita, stop!
Sanyo runs out into the hallway.
Rajkumari Sanyogita!
Sanyo pushes the door open then she push the outer door and sees two guards waiting with spears outside. Move from my way she tells them, I won't let them fight!
Sanyo tries to push the spears away. Move away!
Sorry Rajkumari Sanyogita you are not permitted to go there! The guards have been given orders by Jaichand.
Who are you to block my path she shouts, move away from my path! She tries to push the guard’s spears away again.
This is by orders of Maharaj Jaichand.
Sanyogita cannot get freed out of the palace, she shouts Prithvi!
Go ahead, orders Jaichand to his army as he sits on the horse on the hill doing nothing but giving orders. Finish the 3 off, go!
Jaichand's troops carry a heavy log ready to strike at them. Arjun and Chand turn to see the log aimed at them, Prithvi is also alerted. The log just misses them, all 3 have jumped into the air to avoid the log driven by Jaichand's troops, to save their lives.
Jaichand glares at them, he is disappointed, they are still alive.
Prithvi gets up and kicks a troop and resumes fighting once again. He fights many one by one his sword clashes. Prithvi twirls in the air so he can cut into 3 at a time.
Jaichand is annoyed by his strength.
Chand also kills one man, the troop is thrown into the air. Arjun has stood up, but one troop from behind cuts his shoulder, he is wounded.
Prithvi sees it and yells Arjun! He is worried for his friend.
Jaichand is pleased and smiles happily.
Arjun nevertheless holds his wound and fights back.
Prithvi starts to kick his opponents one by one.
Chand pushes another troop with his sword, behind. Chand attacks more but a troop from behind cuts his shoulder he is wounded also.
Prithvi sees that too and yells, Chand!
Jaichand is pleased again and laughs some more, that’s just what he wanted.
Chand holds his shoulders with his other hand, while Prithvi watches him, another troop cuts into his arm, unexpectedly. Chand tries to hold the other wound too and defend himself, but he falls on his knees in pain.
Prithvi again calls out to Chand, he cannot bear his friend is hurt again. Chand tries to pin the troop’s sword upward.
Prithvi rushes to his assistance. Chand pushes the troop back but lands on the ground clutching his wounds as he is in pain. Prithvi kills another troop.
Arjun continues to kill the troops holding his wound with his other hand.
Jaichand watches he is pleased with the results so far.
Chand makes efforts to get up.
Prithvi kicks a troop and then he shoulders another one with his force. Prithvi shouts to Chand get up and fight! Chand is still in sitting position.
Arjun continues to battle them two at a time.
Chand is still down in pain.
Prithvi and Arjun battle it out. Arjun is on the ground now he gets attacked by many they hover above him ready to kill him.
Chand still has not gotten up.
Prithvi kicks one troop and notices that Arjun’s life is in danger he can barely get up.
4 troops are about to attack Chand.
Prithvi yells hey!" Kabaradar" Don't you dare touch them! He points his sword at them.
Jaichand orders his troop to kill them both! Eliminate them!
The troops are ready to kill them and raise their swords.
Prithvi shrieks Arghhhhh! He comes to their rescue and cuts into the troops hovering above Chand. All four of them are eliminated as he flings both of the swords in his hands. Prithvi cuts the other four who were about to kill Arjun. Prithvi steps forward to kill two more troops at the same time using both swords again. Prithvi yells hey! Jaichand watches him.
Prithvi starts to cut many, one by one till he kills 6 more. Prithvi then pins the sword upward of 2 troops, he kicks a third simultaneously. Prithvi holds those two troops and twists their swords backward finally eliminating them both.
Jaichand watches on.
Prithvi ducks down to miss 3 more troops who get him, he kills all three of them too. One troop injures Prithvi in the arm, but he kills him and he falls.
Jaichand can see all his troops are dead. Prithvi is hurt badly but tries to stand up, his eyes are closed.

Sanyo is helpless locked in the palace. She walks back and forth impatiently, she says what if something happens to Prithvi? She is worried. No I will not be able to live without Prithvi for a second. Roopali rushes into her room, Sanyo runs to her, what happened Roopali she asks. Is the fighting over, Prithvi! Is Prithvi okay?
Maharaj Prithvi's friends are totally injured and lie on the ground.
But is Prithvi okay?
Roopali doesn't answer.
Sanyo is frantic for an answer, she grabs and shakes Roopali. I am asking you a question, Prithvi, is Prithvi okay or not! Roopali answer me, Sanyo cries, is Prithvi okay?
Roopali finally answers, Maharaj Prithvi is wounded severly, and...
And what asks Sanyo.
He alone fights with Maharaj Jaichand!
Prithvi fights two more troops with two swords they are eliminated, he still kills another all are gone. Prithvi is tired and can barely stand he sees Jaichand on his horse, his vision is blurry.
Jaichand shouts Prithvi! Now you will remember your ancestors!

Sanyo is worried, in her room she sits on her bed, she cannot do anything she is helpless and doesn’t know what the outcome will be. She gets up from her bed and sees the Shiva idol, she puts her hand on her “bindi” and closes her eyes.

Prithvi looks at Jaichand.
Jaichand sees him stand alone.

Sanyo opens her eyes and looks at the Shiva idol once again. Sanyo runs to the idol she stands near it. Sanyo folds her hands together to pray. Outside she can hear her father’s voice, attack!

More of Jaichand’s troops have come from another place. Jaichand orders those troops to attack also.
Prithvi stands alone in the grounds. Prithvi watches the area as he can see many more troops run towards him in his direction.
Jaichand orders kill him! Finish him off!
More troops gather around him they are surrounding him. Prithvi holds his sword and looks around himself, they are cornering him in all directions

Sanyo bows down in front of the Shiva idol with folded hands in last efforts to save Prithvi's life.

Prithvi is ready as ever, he positions both of his swords to attack the troops that encircle him. Prithvi with all his might, starts to attack numerous troops, flinging his sword to and fro, he tries to eliminate as many as he can with whatever strength he has. He kicks some away from him and lashes the sword on them.
Jaichand shouts with confidence Prithvi! Now only your corpse will leave this place, only your corpse!
Prithvi clangs his sword rapidly on each one of the troops keeping guard alone, against all of them. Prithvi moves in circular motions to oust the troops away, using both hands and two swords at a time. One troop slashes his chest region another troop cuts into his back. Prithvi can barely stand, he still tries to fight.

Sanyo continues to pray.

Jaichand grins as he thinks he is successful in eliminating Prithvi.

Prithvi makes efforts to continue to fight.

Episode on Friday, October 3, 2008

Sanyo asks, Prithvi are you really here? I cannot believe it, you are in front of me standing here. Maybe this is a dream?
No, this is not a dream its real, a reality that we have been waiting for a long time.
Roopali and Chand listen they are happy too.
Prithvi and Sanyo look at each other, Sanyo puts her hand on his cheek, but how did you come here? Does your mother know this?
Mother herself sent me to go and get daughter-in-law.
What would have happened if she hadn’t cooperated with you?
I would have done the same what you were going to do. Prithvi shows the diamond in his palms. I cannot live without you Sanyo, Prithvi hugs her.

In the palace of Kannauj, Jaichand is dressed in ordinary garments he walks in the hallway to go to the other room, he remembers about Prithvi earlier, about how he warned he will come and take Sanyo away. Three guards follow behind him. He reaches the room to get ready with the gear, his other servants bring his armor. First they put on his thick chained coat, then two servants screw on the arm plates, Prithvi’s words echo in his mind. Another servant takes the helmet and puts it on Jaichand’s head, (if you can stop me, then try). Jaichand takes his sword. Is the army ready?
Yes Maharaj.
If Prithvi has tried to get to Sanyo, then we would have got the message by now. I will myself go to Sanyo to the palace and wait for him. He will definitely come! Definitely! Let’s go! Jaichand and his troops leave.

Prithvi and Sanyo are happy, but Sanyo gets serious as she realizes that, its not going to be so easy. She says, let’s go from here, come, she grabs Prithvi’s arm, before anybody gets the news that you have come we must run from here. I cannot wait any longer Prithvi! Thank God that you came here in time, let’s go, she pulls his arms and leads the way out.
Prithvi doesn’t move he stands still expressionless.
I can’t understand what happened to you Prithvi? Why don’t you come with me? Before my father comes you better take me with you to Dhilli, let’s go.
No is the answer from Prithvi, he instead pulls her arm. What are you thinking? I will steal you away like a thief?
What do you mean asks Sanyo.
It means I love you Sanyogita and I will take you with honor and respect, in front of everybody the whole world.
No! Sanyo shakes her head, no I cannot wait further, just think, just think Prithvi, if father comes in between and plays another trick on us, then? And what if he tries to separate us again?
Nobody can separate us. Sanyogita was Prithvi’s, is Prithvi’s and will always remain Prithvi’s. Now there is no force that can separate us Sanyo.
What if father does something, then what?
Why don’t you trust me, you know that Prithviraj Chauhan already meets Sanyogita secretly like a thief, don’t you know your own Prithvi will take you away from your home in front of the world with dignity and respect.
Sanyo pushes herself away in thought.

In another site Pundir and Arjun wait for Prithvi.
Arjun is impatient he walks back and forth. Prithvi has still not come he is worried, hope he’s not in danger.
Pundir responds, I think that, those people might have got him?
Then lets go, says Arjun he is irritated, we will go and see, standing here and wasting time will not achieve anything. They both get alarmed as they see an army with full strength heading in the direction of the Yamuna kinara palace.
Arjun whispers Maharaj Jaichand. There are many troops on foot heading that way. Pundir and Arjun take their own men away so they are not spotted by the approaching army, and hide behind the bushes.
Pundir and Arjun can see Jaichand on horse in the lead, behind his senapati is on horse and some others, and the rest are the troops who follow by foot.
Arjun says Maharaj Jaichand is going towards the palace to Sanyogita. Let’s go, before he reaches we must inform Prithvi to be careful. Arjun goes to his horse.
Stop! Stop, Pundir requests Arjun, we must not take drastic decisions. We must somehow get to Maharaj Jaichand and his army and try to stop him from reaching, Arjun you go and join Prithvi. I will try to stop Maharaj Jaichand and his army from reaching.
But how will you stop them Pundir?
You don’t worry about that you just go and meet Prithvi. Arjun gets on his horse and leaves immediately.
Jaichand and his troops are moving, full speed ahead.

In the palace Sanyo sits quietly on her bed she is not happy with Prithvi’s decision. Prithvi and Chand wait quietly. Prithvi finally walks over to her and kneels in front of her. Sanyo turns her head to avoid seeing him. Prithvi moves to her side and says Sanyogita, softly.
Sanyo again shrugs her shoulders and moves a bit away from Prithvi.
Prithvi sees her disappointment and gestures with his eyes to Chand. Chand looks at Prithvi with a question mark.
Prithvi breaks the silence, I have told you that you don’t have to worry. He puts his hand on her shoulders, I have been telling you that I don’t want to take you like a thief, but take you away in front of everybody.
Prithvi makes her turn and look in his direction, on the day of swayamwar you will only put the “var-mala” on Prithvi’s neck.
Sanyo doesn’t agree, No! I cannot wait to get married to you, till swayamwar comes. Sanyo is serious and requests Prithvi to marry her now, immediately get married, on the spot.
Prithvi is cool and calm he has a smile on his face, he says really, you wish it?
Sanyo nods her head, yes.
Prithvi gets up from the bed, okay then, he pulls her arm come with me.
Where?
Prithvi holds her arm and leads the way. He takes her to the Shiva idol in the palace. Sanyo looks at Prithvi. Chand and Roopali come to the same room behind them.
We must get married right now, okay. He smiles at Sanyo. Prithvi looks at the Shiva idol and the bells move to and fro with the wind. We are getting married right now he tells her.
Sanyo looks at him with tears of joy.

Jaichand and the troops are on their way. Arjun is on his way too, alone, to get to Prithvi.

In the palace Prithvi takes Sanyo's hand in his, the wind moves the bell to and fro in front of the Shiva idol. A "homa" has been arranged in front of it a fire burns. Prithvi takes Sanyo around it he has a firm grip of her hand as he leads the way.
Roopali throws rice on them Chand chants the manthra’s. They both make the second round of the "homa" both Chand and Roopali throw rice. They both continue to encircle the fire. (“Agni”)

Jaichand and his troops are steady on their way. Arjun side by side rides on.

Prithvi and Sanyogita continue their "pradakshina" around "agni".

Jaichand’s team rides on.
Pundir's army forces are on their way too, they are dressed in civilian attire disguised as a marriage procession with "palki". Pundir is in the lead he holds the "pipani".
Arjun makes his way too.
Pundir walks on, blowing the "pipani" as his procession travels on.
They are completing the 7 "feras" around the “homa” to complete the marriage rites.
The 3 parties carry on with Jaichand at one end and Pundir and Arjun at the other.
Sanyo and Prithvi make the final 7th "fera".
Simultaneously the 3 other parties carry on further.
Prithvi takes the garland of flowers and slowly puts it carefully on Sanyogita, she smiles and looks into Prithvi's eyes. Chand and Roopali continue to throw rice on them. Now its Sanyo's turn, she puts her garland on Prithvi's neck and they both smile. Chand and Roopali also smile they throw more rice.

Pundir's procession are nearing Jaichand's army they will cross paths soon, that's what Pundir wants according to his plan to stop Jaichand. Pundir and the senapati blow the horns loudly, he looks at Jaichand as he comes nearer. Pundir removes the pipe from his mouth and thinks in his mind, now we will see how Maharaj Jaichand gets to Prithvi. Jaichand and his troops come close and then come to a halt, he is right next to the marriage procession now. Pundir leads the way closer to them.
Jaichand sees the marriage procession obstructing his way, he gets irritated and yells, move from here! He gestures with his sword, get out of our way! Jaichand sees the civilians dance. Go! He orders his troops to push them away. Hurry fast!
The troops take their swords and try to push the people of the marriage procession backwards.
Pundir stops blowing his pipe, and gets pushed away.
One guard yells move! Idiots didn't you hear! Move from here! Come on move he pushes them with his hands.
Instead of moving Pundir walks over to Jaichand who is sitting on his horse.

At the palace, Prithvi opens the lid of the kumkum “niranjan”, he looks at Sanyo.
Roopali holds back Sanyo’s golden 'bindi' on her forehead aside, while Prithvi takes the kumkum in his thumb, and slowly applies it on Sanyo's forehead, he fills her "mang” with “sindhoor". Sanyo opens her eyes and looks at Prithvi.

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.
