I am the Rajkavi Chand Bardai and come here to witness and write about the grand swayamwar he tells the guard at the gate of the palace in Kannauj. I will write with my quill the entire story and tell the world.
Jaichand is inspecting the palace and checking the tall marble statues. The sculptor is by his side and tells him that the statues will be placed near every pillar in the palace, so that all the guests can see and wonder.
Jaichand is still not impressed, he says I don't need it. What I need is only one statue, a statue of Prithviraj Chauhan.
Sorry Maharaj, I don't understand why you would want to keep a statue of your own enemy around?
I want Prithvi’s likeness sculptured with hands drawn forward in a begging position to place at the gate of entry of the palace so all can see, so that his character will be disgraced.
The sculptor is impressed, what an idea! He compliments Jaichand.
Maharaj Ki Jai ho! The guard calls Jaichand to inform, Rajkavi Chand Bardai has come to attend the swayamwar!
Jaichand is surprised, he knows that he will not come without a reason. This must be one of Prithviraj's tricks! Don't let him come! Tell him not to come at all, he orders the guard.
The guard does not think it’s the appropriate thing to do. He warns his King, but he is Rajkavi and such people have to be welcomed. It’s a tradition, we have to let him come, otherwise all the guests, Rajas and Maharajas will find out and not be pleased by our conduct.
Jaichand has no choice he has to say okay, let him enter. It must be another trick of Prithvi's otherwise why would he come here in the first place?
It is night, Sanyo sits down in a corner of the room. She says time is nearing for me. I get closer and closer to the day of the swayamwar. I wonder how I can retain this night to avoid the next? Sanyo remembers the past with Prithvi.
Jaichand enters the room, Rajkumari Sanyogita? He calls and sits by her side on the bed. He tries to make an understanding between them, daughter I know you see me negatively but parents always try to see what’s best for their children. Now just see what I have brought you for the swayamwar. Just forget about the other arrangements I have made, but instead see your bracelets and designer jewelry specially made for this ceremony.
Sanyo gives her answer she is not interested in seeing the ornaments, she says I have no value for these items.
Jaichand is annoyed and cannot take it anymore, enough! It’s just too much! Think what you want makes no difference to me, you just get ready for the swayamwar! Take all the goods away. Jaichand orders the guards to keep a strict eye on Sanyogita at all times. He shrugs his shoulders and leaves the room.
Roopali returns to Sanyo’s side, and sits next to her. Roopali notices something in Sanyo's hand, it is a ring with many diamonds in it. She asks her where did you get that.
Sanyo says she will remove the diamonds and end her life with it.
How did you get this in the first place, Roopali grabs it from her grasp and takes it away before Sanyo can react?
Sanyo tries to get it back but no use, stop Roopali, she shouts.
Roopali leaves the room quickly before she can do anything.
Sanyo is left alone helpless, it doesn't matter. I will commit suicide under any condition.
Prithvi and Chand enter the palace and walk in the hallway, they both smile. Announcement made to Jaichand, Maharaj, Rajkavi Chand Bardai has come. Both of them walk on the red carpet. Chand comes closer to Jaichand. Jaichand looks straight at him as they both approach. Chand is polite and says, on behalf of Prithviraj Chauhan "prannam sweekar hai".
Come, come Jaichand welcomes Chand. How is it that you come here he asks?
I came to give "badai" on Prithviraj's behalf.
Yes, that’s good since you have come you must attend the swayamwar too. Then you can describe the whole ceremony to him, he will enjoy it!
Chand acts as if he agrees, why not? I will describe to him in such a fashion, that it would be like he was present himself right in front. Don't you feel that my presence here is equal to his presence also? Chand questions Jaichand. Chand puts on a good drama before him.
Jaichand orders that Rajkavi Chand Bardai be taken with respect to the guest house. Jaichand quickly looks at the man accompanying Chand and says, but wait who is this with you?
Prithvi doesn't have any answer ready, he quickly tries to respond uh....uh.. I am Kannaiya, Rajkavi's personal helper/assistant.
Jaichand tells Rajkavi you must rest now but after you have to recite poems here to all the guests and “dil baila-o”.
Yes, of course, why not.
Your Maharaj must be making you do the same all day? Prithvi must like poetry a lot?
No, he is more interested in martial arts Maharaj, Chand responds. Chand takes his leave and goes to the pavilion to join the other guests.
Jaichand gets up from his seat.
At the Yamuna Kinara palace, Sanyo is still after Roopali. You need to give me back the ring, Sanyogita makes her demand to her.
No!
Then will I have to find another alternative?
No!
Then what do you want me to do? Go ahead and perform the swayamwar and marry whomever Maharaj tells me to?
God will find a way out, Roopali assures her.
No! How? There are only 5 days left, what will I do in 5 days?
5 days are plenty and anything can happen in that time period. Just pray to God. Trust God and leave it to him, Roopali gives her good advice.
Chand and Prithvi wander around the palace in efforts to find Sanyo. Prithvi is carrying all the writing material, the load is very heavy. Chand apologizes to Prithvi, I have to make you lift all the goods everywhere.
Its okay I don't mind, I will do anything for Sanyo.
Then how we will find her, Chand questions Prithvi, they don't have clue where she might be.
Prithvi advises Chand to recite his poetry and keep everybody occupied with it, "dil baila-o". I will find out where Sanyogita is soon.
Jaichand has his suspicions, I cannot trust them both, he orders his guards to keep a constant check on them. I need to know each and every move they make, and every word that they utter. Especially that Kannaiya he looks suspicious. Just keep a special eye and spy on Kannaiya! Go!
Jaichand's guards tell Jaichand, you seem to be extra worried for no reason about that Kannaiya, he looks so innocent. He is just an ordinary servant that’s all.
No! He looks intimidating, he looks like he is on a special mission, he looks more like the master then the assistant.
They obey Jaichand, yes Maharaj!
Prithviraj! I know that you will go to any extreme and search from earth to sky just to find Sanyo! I will not allow you to get her at all!
Chand is worried about their presence at the palace. He asks Prithvi, what if Jaichand sees us and has doubt on you while we search for her? Just don’t worry keep everybody involved in your poetry and art so he doesn't pay attention to anything else "uska dil baila-o", and leave the rest to me.
Okay Prithvi. Chand notices that Prithvi is smiling, he tells him that he is happy to see him happy after a long time.
Sanyo is restless in her room, she walks back and forth. She is impatient as the days of her swayamwar draw closer. The servants bring in her food, they request her to eat it. We have been ordered to look after you till the swayamwar.
Sanyo is furious, she takes the tray of food and throws it on the floor. Look I don't want it! Tell Maharaj! The servants clean the mess and leave.
Roopali enters the room and reminds her that there are only 4 days left.
I want to commit suicide.
Roopali wants to give hope to Sanyo and changes the subject, she informs her that Chand Bardai has come for the swayamwar.
Yes? Is Prithvi there too? Sanyo is hopeful he has come too.
No, only Chand Bardai has come but he is accompanied by an assistant. She sees she has become upset again. Don't be so upset, don't worry, he must have a plan set. Prithvi won't just keep quiet like that he will definitely take action.
It better be so, I just cannot do this swayamwar at all. Sanyo gives Roopali a hug, she slips her hand into Roopali's gagra/dress-skirt where her draw string pouch/bag has been tucked in. Sanyo carefully removes the pouch without her noticing it. The pouch contains the diamond ring, Sanyo conceals it in her fist.
I cannot wait anymore if the swayamwar isn't stopped, I will stop the swayamwar with my death. Sanyo murmurs to herself.

Episode on Saturday, September 20, 2008
The world should not forget the love story, Chand you write the story, tells Arjun, exactly the way it is.
Yes! Let’s go.
Pundir tells to write the truth of the story and take it to the climax.
The swayamwar nears, Sanyogita has lost hope, nothing can happen now it's too late.
You must believe in God, Roopali reminds her.
Yes, that was the only alternative, it hasn't worked so far and I have abandoned that option already. What should I leave this world?
Take care of yourself.
Take care of what? I should commit suicide that’s the best alternative.
Roopali sees the conversation is getting nowhere, don't say that.
Then what should I do? Sanyogita has lost it totally, participate in the swayamwar and put the "varmala” on the selected king according to Maharaj Jaichand?
No!
Then commit suicide? Go, Roopali go and get the poison for me.
Roopali is trapped in a bad situation, what is this? How can you possibly tell me to get poison for you to die?
You don't understand me!
Then listen, I will not do this work for you. I will not allow you to die like this tells Roopali.
Sanyogita sees the Shiva idol in the room. She comments, you have also abandoned me, you don't help your self, nor do you allow anybody else to help me. Before swayamwar I will commit suicide. She keeps on repeating the same words.
Prithvi is ready, he is dressed in the servant garments and makeup is done appropriately, nobody will recognize him.
Raj Purohit performs "arthi" on Prithvi. He has the tray in his hands, he blesses "Vijay Bhava", at that instance the tray slips from his hand and falls on Pundir’s feet.
Raj Purohit is annoyed he says, what has happened this looks like a bad omen. He remembers the prophecy and the bad dream Prithvi had earlier, is this not a warning of the Prophecy?
Prithvi is concerned and says maybe Pundir, I think it’s better if you stayed back.
No! Prithvi, Pundir is disappointed you stopped me once, not this time, I will come.
Listen to me! Prithvi is adamant.
No! I refuse to listen to your orders this time, Pundir tells his master.
Okay then lets go! Prithvi replies.
Maharaj we have invited all the guests to the “sangeet” program, tells the Minister to Jaichand.
Jaichand is pleased, and looks like M Ghori has finished Prithvi off also, he has not returned from the war.
One of Jaichand’s undercover agents enters the palace to give the latest updates.
The agent informs Jaichand that Prithvi has reached Dhilli after defeating M Ghori. Jaichand’s thoughts are shattered he is annoyed, how did he even survive?
He must have got the message about the swayamwar and also that he was not even invited, warns the spy. Prithvi will be bloody angry about it! He will attack Kannauj, we must be prepared for his attack!
Jaichand listens to his spy, yes then get ready and make all the arrangements for it. Go!
Yes Maharaj, he follows the order.
Pundir, Chand, Arjun and Prithvi have set off on their next mission they travel on horses. They have covered a long distance, soon it becomes night. Prithvi keeps on riding ahead further away from his friends that his buddies are in doubt.
You are so interested in Sanyogita that you go ahead of your friends?
Wrong! I am looking for a suitable place to rest, see that place, we will rest over there. We will continue the rest of the journey in the morning. You see, you all must rest as much as possible and get ready for the morning. After that I will not allow anybody to sleep.
They all arrange to sleep near a tree, the four rest. Prithvi discusses, just Jaichand should not find out about our plans.
Don't worry our army have left to the respective places and will reach in the morning, Arjun assures Prithvi.
By the time two unknown tribal men watch the four rest near the tree, in the forest, they too are behind some bushes. One says, so this is Maharaj Prithviraj Chauhan! We must inform Maharaj Jaichand that Prithviraj Chauhan is coming to get Sanyogita. On the second thought why don't we bring his corpse instead to Maharaj Jaichand. Then he would be pleased. They continue to spy on Prithvi and gang as they sleep in the grass nearby and get ready to attack.
Meanwhile Prithvi is in deep sleep, he dreams and sees Pundir all wounded and walking alone trying to escape his assailants. Pundir falls and rolls down a hill protecting his wound by his hands. Two masked men with swords approach and stab Pundir. Prithvi shouts Pundir! In his sleep, he wakes up.
All wake up too. What is it Prithvi? Pundir is concerned.
Nothing, You.... He is interrupted by people blowing conches there are many of them and approach the four. The 4 are startled, Prithvi looks at each of them, and so do his buddies. The tribals start to surround them all around slowly walking closer and closer.
Who are you people! Prithvi asks them.
One strong built man says I am Angara, I am Sankar adivasi's son, and you are in our capture!
What capture Prithvi responds to him!
It’s because you are the enemy of Maharaj, and we have much debt to make up for Maharaj. We will cut your head and hand it over to him. Beware Prithviraj! Angara warns him.
Stop! First you will have to get us Pundir shouts at them. Har Har Mahadeo! The 4 cheer.
Jai Maha Kali!The tribals shout!
Prithvi starts to attack and kills many "advasis", Arjun, Chand and Pundir eliminate many too. Prithvi manages to eliminate the majority of them. Now Prithvi is left to fight Angara, Prithvi pushes him down. Angara gets up and thrashes Prithvi but misses him with his sword. Prithvi also attacks him back. Angara aims at his legs, but Prithvi jumps up and he misses him again. Prithvi is quick and forces his sword into his stomach. Angara reacts back and holds his hands forward to gesture stop, he is in pain and falls to the ground. Chand stabs the last man on the ground to make sure they are all dead.
We have less time we must go, Chand reminds Prithvi.
Also Jaichand must not find out that I am coming tells Prithvi. Lets go, he says. The 4 leave the site where they camped, dead bodies are all around.
Angara is still alive and wasn't killed. He also lies there, he is breathing and gets up to leave for his home.
The sun has risen its morning the four are near the lake. They ride on their horses ahead till Prithvi tells his buddies, enough. Now I and Chand will go directly to the palace. Pundir will join his division of the army, and Arjun will go to Kannauj to find the exits there with his army division respectively, as per plan. By the time you accomplish your tasks, we both would have found Sanyo and brought her out of the palace.
Arjun agrees and tells him to go and get their sister-in-law!
Angara with his wounds, has managed his way back to his tribal camp, he calls Baba! Baba! He falls and lies on the ground.
Sankar adivasi is alerted of the situation, he comes to his son, he is calling him. What is this! Who did this to you? Go and get the vaid, tells his father!
No! Its no use, I will not survive, Angara replies.
I will not allow you to die like this!
If you want to do something get Prithviraj Chauhan! Take revenge on Prithviraj Chauhan! He is on his way to Kannauj and has a plan, Angara's voice is fading away. He is going to get Rajkumari......... Angara dies he cannot complete the sentence.
Sankar adivasi is angry of the death of his son. I will kill you Maharaj Prithviraj Chauhan! Lets go to Kannauj, he tells his people.
A tribal priest is watching, he interrupts Sankar adivasi, no we must first perform Angara's last rights and give his spirit peace, after 2 days you can go.
No! I am only after the death of Prithviraj Chauhan!
No! The priest warns if you don’t perform the last rites now, Angara’s spirit will roam endlessly.
Sankar adivasi is helpless and cannot do anything he takes oath that Prithviraj Chauhan will pay by giving his life!
Chand and Prithvi approach the entrance of the palace in Kannauj, guards protect the gate. You know what to do? I will meet Jaichand, tells Prithvi.
They come to the gate. Who are you asks the guard!
Go and tell Jaichand that the royal poet Chand Bardai has come!
Why have you come here?
Tell, I have learned about the swayamwar and have come to see how the grand preparations have been made. Also I want to attend the swayamwar. I will write about the wedding in a poem so that I can recite it to the whole world! Please inform Maharaj Jaichand, he tells the guards. Chand and Prithviraj wait outside the gates, they look at each other. They are patient and cool, but don’t know what to anticipate.
Yes! Let’s go.
Pundir tells to write the truth of the story and take it to the climax.
The swayamwar nears, Sanyogita has lost hope, nothing can happen now it's too late.

Episode on Friday, September 19, 2008
The swayamwar is in 15 days tells Raj Purohit, the only thing that’s sad about it is that Maharaj Jaichand has invited all the Maharajas and Rajas of all the kingdoms except you.
Prithvi stands silent in front of the Raj Purohit undisturbed. He doesn't waste time and immediately makes his way to the hallway. His friends watch him leave, Chand says listen..... But he's too late Prithvi has already left and ignores him. Prithvi leaves the palace.
Prithvi stop! His friends Pundir and Arjun call him, they get no response so they follow behind him.
Sanyo is locked up at the Yamuna Kinara Palace. She wonders if Prithvi got her message or not. Somebody outside is approaching on horse, he rides ahead. Sanyo thinks it’s the vaid and he has returned from Chittorgarh and delivered the message, she runs to see the person.
Sanyo! Roopali calls.
It was somebody else. She tells Roopali, I thought it was.....
Why are you so worried? Maharaj will get the message and surely take you away.
No, he has given oath to his mother and will less likely ever come or never come, Sanyo reminds her servant Roopali.
But he is a Rajput, and they live up to their words he had promised you, he will fulfill it.
Sanyo decides to wait outside, lets see for the last time if I get news from him. If separation is in my destiny then so be it.
Prithvi has taken his horse and making his journey to the forest, he has travelled through the night and now it is daylight. Prithvi remembers Raj Purohit's words during his ride and also has flashbacks of the past with Sanyo. Pundir and Arjun are steady behind on horse too, they yell out for him to stop, as there is a valley ahead. Pundir and Arjun ride fast behind and try to over take him.
Prithvi rides his horse non-stop till he reaches a dead end, a cliff and a deep valley is below. His mother is in front of it she blocks his passage. Prithvi is surprised to see her and has to pull the reigns of his horse to stop. Prithvi looks at his mother. Pundir and Arjun have also arrived behind.
Mother asks what are you doing, where do you think you’re going? What you thought she will put the garland on any one.
Prithvi responds to his mother, I will forget her let her do what ever she wants.
Look she has given this message. She is not doing the swayamwar according to her wishes, she is being forced to do it. See this letter, mother shows the scroll to him.
Prithvi gets down from is horse and takes the scroll in his hands he unrolls it and reads it. Mother prompts and says,
she has written, Sanyo is yours and always be yours, its written that you should not feel that she is less in your life , mother continues, its written that if not in this life then at least in next life nobody can separate us.
On swayamwar night it will not be her “dholi” it will be her “asti” that will leave.
Mother finishes and says, I am taking back the oath I gave you before. I have freed you from it tells mother to Prithvi, now let anything happen Sanyo will be only Prithvi's. Go! Prithvi go, go and get your Sanyogita mother tells him. Go!
In Kannauj, in the "darbar" Jaichand laughs to himself, how it’s going to be fun when all the Rajas and Maharajas come to the swayamwar here and Prithviraj Chauhan will be all alone in Dhilli. It will be an insult for him, it will be remembered forever by everyone.
A minister advises Jaichand, but Maharaj, Prithvi is angry and can attack anyhow.
No! Says Jaichand, even if he wanted to attack he won't. He has the oath, his mother gave to him. Meanwhile the guards announce the arrival of Maharaj Krishnakant of Dakshin Bharath. Jaichand gives orders for him to be taken to the neighboring room where the other king’s are staying. Also make sure that proper care and attention is given to him. I just wish to see Prithvi's face, it would be real fun says Jaichand. Prithvi! Ha ha ha, he gives a big laugh.
Night has fallen, Prithvi is at home at ease, he is distracted by some jingle sound in his room. Prithvi looks around to find out where the sound is coming from. It is nothing but "payal ka gungroo" Prithvi sees Sanyogita (imagination). He walks up to her closely, I caught you he says to her.
Sanyo smiles at him.
Prithvi then touches Sanyo’s chin, I am coming to get you!
I have been waiting so long for it, then she suddenly disappears.
Prithvi! Arjun calls him the gang is looking for him.
Prithvi greets them, come on we will go to Kannauj he says.
Now? His buddies ask.
Yes now, with the full army says Prithvi, I will take Sanyo away right in front of Jaichand and bring her to Dhilli to stay permanently.
But first, Pundir advises, we have to find out where Sanyo is.
Yes Prithvi, Arjun also replies, she is locked up in some place, she will only be let out moments before her swayamwar. She will not be allowed into the palace till then.
Pundir says we are in need of a plan.
Prithvi agrees to all of the suggestions, okay instead we will go tomorrow morning, ready with a full plan.
Arjun diverts the attention, but Prithvi take that off the arm band, he laughs at the King.
Prithvi looks out of the window, Sanyo now nobody can separate you from me, he looks at the moon in the sky from his room.
Sanyo is concerned and wondering about her message. God only knows what will happen, maybe Prithvi got my message after all? But what will he be able to do anyways, he has his mother’s promise.
Prithvi looks out the window and remembers Sanyo. Prithvi finally gets a smile on his face.
Simultaneously, Sanyo also remembers Prithvi.
Prithvi wraps his shawl around him as the cool breeze enters his quarters from the window.
Jaichand enters her room and calls her name Sanyo! I thought I would tell this in person, all about how the Rajas and Maharajas have come to attend the grand wedding that I have arranged. There are many “Veer Yodhas” present also.
There is only one “Veer Yodha” in my life and he is Prithviraj Chauhan!
I always think of what’s best for you and your benefit, tells her father.
You can think whatever you want, I will not put the "varmala" on anybody except Prithviraj Chauhan, even in my next life!
No! You will put the "varmala” on the King we select for you, I will even use force if it goes to that extent, Jaichand warns her. He is furious and leaves the room, his efforts go waste.
Sanyo cries.
Roopali enters her room, what happened Rajkumari Sanyogita?
It’s just too much, I will kill myself before the swayamwar, she tells her. She turns to the Shiva Idol in her room.
It is morning, Prithvi discusses with his buddies about the plans. I am sure while taking Sanyo away Jaichand will attack us. So for that reason I have made this plan. I and Chand will go into the palace to find out where Sanyo is being held. Why I am using Chand is because he is a poet, nobody will stop a royal poet from entering the palace. I will be Chand’s servant in disguise, tells Prithvi, nobody will stop his servant either. Next the army, there will be several divisions:
1. The first group will be in a swami disguise. They will follow the road by the river and keep an eye in that area. The Senapati will lead them.
Har Har Mahadeo!
2. The second group will be disguised as drama artists/actors, they will be lead by Pundir.
Har Har Mahdeo!
3. The third group will be disguised as business people of commerce, they will mix with the soldiers of Kannauj and entertain them. Also keep them busy and divert their attention, their job is to differentiate who is strong or weak.
4. The third group will be disguised as village folk.
5. The fifth group, the last will be disguised as labor force.
Arjun will look after 3rd, 4th and 5th divisions of the army. Har Har Mahadeo! They will mix with the Kannauj villagers and find all exits of Kannauj.
Har Har Mahdeo!
Arjun complements Prithvi, what a plan, very good Prithvi.
Chand also is satisfied and agrees with Arjun.
Arjun tells Chand to write all this in a poem and make it a historical event!
Prithvi stands silent in front of the Raj Purohit undisturbed. He doesn't waste time and immediately makes his way to the hallway. His friends watch him leave, Chand says listen..... But he's too late Prithvi has already left and ignores him. Prithvi leaves the palace.
Prithvi stop! His friends Pundir and Arjun call him, they get no response so they follow behind him.
Sanyo is locked up at the Yamuna Kinara Palace. She wonders if Prithvi got her message or not. Somebody outside is approaching on horse, he rides ahead. Sanyo thinks it’s the vaid and he has returned from Chittorgarh and delivered the message, she runs to see the person.
Sanyo! Roopali calls.
It was somebody else. She tells Roopali, I thought it was.....
Why are you so worried? Maharaj will get the message and surely take you away.
No, he has given oath to his mother and will less likely ever come or never come, Sanyo reminds her servant Roopali.
But he is a Rajput, and they live up to their words he had promised you, he will fulfill it.
Sanyo decides to wait outside, lets see for the last time if I get news from him. If separation is in my destiny then so be it.
Prithvi has taken his horse and making his journey to the forest, he has travelled through the night and now it is daylight. Prithvi remembers Raj Purohit's words during his ride and also has flashbacks of the past with Sanyo. Pundir and Arjun are steady behind on horse too, they yell out for him to stop, as there is a valley ahead. Pundir and Arjun ride fast behind and try to over take him.
Prithvi rides his horse non-stop till he reaches a dead end, a cliff and a deep valley is below. His mother is in front of it she blocks his passage. Prithvi is surprised to see her and has to pull the reigns of his horse to stop. Prithvi looks at his mother. Pundir and Arjun have also arrived behind.
Mother asks what are you doing, where do you think you’re going? What you thought she will put the garland on any one.
Prithvi responds to his mother, I will forget her let her do what ever she wants.
Look she has given this message. She is not doing the swayamwar according to her wishes, she is being forced to do it. See this letter, mother shows the scroll to him.
Prithvi gets down from is horse and takes the scroll in his hands he unrolls it and reads it. Mother prompts and says,
she has written, Sanyo is yours and always be yours, its written that you should not feel that she is less in your life , mother continues, its written that if not in this life then at least in next life nobody can separate us.
On swayamwar night it will not be her “dholi” it will be her “asti” that will leave.
Mother finishes and says, I am taking back the oath I gave you before. I have freed you from it tells mother to Prithvi, now let anything happen Sanyo will be only Prithvi's. Go! Prithvi go, go and get your Sanyogita mother tells him. Go!
In Kannauj, in the "darbar" Jaichand laughs to himself, how it’s going to be fun when all the Rajas and Maharajas come to the swayamwar here and Prithviraj Chauhan will be all alone in Dhilli. It will be an insult for him, it will be remembered forever by everyone.
A minister advises Jaichand, but Maharaj, Prithvi is angry and can attack anyhow.
No! Says Jaichand, even if he wanted to attack he won't. He has the oath, his mother gave to him. Meanwhile the guards announce the arrival of Maharaj Krishnakant of Dakshin Bharath. Jaichand gives orders for him to be taken to the neighboring room where the other king’s are staying. Also make sure that proper care and attention is given to him. I just wish to see Prithvi's face, it would be real fun says Jaichand. Prithvi! Ha ha ha, he gives a big laugh.
Night has fallen, Prithvi is at home at ease, he is distracted by some jingle sound in his room. Prithvi looks around to find out where the sound is coming from. It is nothing but "payal ka gungroo" Prithvi sees Sanyogita (imagination). He walks up to her closely, I caught you he says to her.
Sanyo smiles at him.
Prithvi then touches Sanyo’s chin, I am coming to get you!
I have been waiting so long for it, then she suddenly disappears.
Prithvi! Arjun calls him the gang is looking for him.
Prithvi greets them, come on we will go to Kannauj he says.
Now? His buddies ask.
Yes now, with the full army says Prithvi, I will take Sanyo away right in front of Jaichand and bring her to Dhilli to stay permanently.
But first, Pundir advises, we have to find out where Sanyo is.
Yes Prithvi, Arjun also replies, she is locked up in some place, she will only be let out moments before her swayamwar. She will not be allowed into the palace till then.
Pundir says we are in need of a plan.
Prithvi agrees to all of the suggestions, okay instead we will go tomorrow morning, ready with a full plan.
Arjun diverts the attention, but Prithvi take that off the arm band, he laughs at the King.
Prithvi looks out of the window, Sanyo now nobody can separate you from me, he looks at the moon in the sky from his room.
Sanyo is concerned and wondering about her message. God only knows what will happen, maybe Prithvi got my message after all? But what will he be able to do anyways, he has his mother’s promise.

Episode on Sunday, September, 14, 2008
Prithvi removes his moustache. What you thought, you are only capable of deception in war? I can also do it. War is for the brave not the cowards like you. Prithvi and Ghori are face to face, Prithvi has his weapons. I will let you fight and allow you to have your own weapons too because I am a son of the soil of Hindustan and will not allow the opponent to fight unarmed Ghori! Prithvi has his spear and shield with him, he also hands the same over to Ghori. Both are armed, Prithvi attacks Ghori repeatedly. Ghori defends himself. Ghori aims at Prithvi's shoulders, Prithvi answers him with a kick. Ghori hits him and Prithvi gives him more kicks. Ghori makes Prithvi turn and tries to stab him in the back, but instead Ghori gets a spear into his guts. He shouts, he is hurt, he finally falls to the ground.
T Khan wants to assist Ghori. Prithvi looks at the injured Ghori on the ground. All are jubilant and shout, Prithviraj Chauhan Ki jai!
Prithviraj Chauhan Ki jai! Prithviraj Chauhan Ki jai!
All cheer, Pundir, Chand, Arjun all come out to hail their King. Prithvi is annoyed to see Pundir, I told you........
I just needed to come, see the war is over and nothing has happened to me. Prithvi hugs Pundir.
Ghori is waking up he removes the spear lodged in his body Arghhh! Ghori makes efforts to get up also. Chand and the rest of them are not paying attention, Ghori clutches his wound and takes the spear in his hands. He aims it at the direction of Prithvi and Pundir. Mir is also vigilant, he comes in the way of the two to save Prithvi, so instead the spear hits Mir Hussain. They all go to Mir, what happened! Go and get him someone shouts. Mir is down, his head is in Prithvi's lap.
At Yamuna Kinara Palace the vaid attends to Sanyogita, are you okay Rajkumari Sanyogita?
Yes I am okay, but I need your help.
Jaichand practices his game he aims at a dart. The guard suddenly comes and rushes to Maharaj, Sanyo has been injured, but don't worry the senior vaid has taken care of her.
Jaichand is angry once again. Why didn't you tell me before and why did you call the vaid in the first place? This is all a part of her tricks.
Sanyo explains what she wants to the senior vaid. You must do this for me she requests him.
No, I will not do this, I cannot.
You must do this for me please or I will commit suicide.
I cannot do this because, I cannot go against Maharaj Jaichand's orders.
Is my life any less important than his orders? You have been treating us and taking care of our health since my childhood. I make a last request, please.
The vaid finally agrees, okay Rajkumari Sanyogita.
Jaichand has already left on his horse to the other palace. He gets off his horse and comes in the hallway. He goes to his daughter and asks where the senior vaid is? Where is he, can't you answer me!
He has gone.
Where?
He has gone home, where else.
Jaichand is angry, just stop it, stop you falsehood you understand me? I will check everything out!
Mir is wounded and lies in the bed. The vaid is looking after his wound.
Prithvi asks him what is it will Mir be okay?
What can I say the wound is very deep he is breathing his last moments.
No! It cannot be Prithvi shouts.
Mir calls out and raises his arm. Don't cry my friend.
Pundir is by his side and holds his hand.
I am at least happy to prove my loyalty.
Pundir is sad he asks his forgiveness for doubting him. I couldn’t imagine that you would take my buddy’s death and save his life.
Its okay says Mir, I get to listen the word friend from you before I die.
Sorry Mir, I could not protect you Prithvi tells him.
I got a chance to save you Prithvi. I don't mind sacrificing my life for yours. I am fortunate to have saved your life Prithvi, that was his last word Mir has died.
Prithvi is upset his head is bowed down.
Chand tells Prithvi lets go back to Dhilli.
The senior vaid has reached Chittorgarh, he gives the message to Pratha. She is surprised a message from Sanyo? She reads on.
You know that Prithvi gave oath to his mother. To remind you with respect I send you this message, my father has arranged my swayamwar after 15 days. I have been avoiding it all this time and postponed it many times. I know Prithvi will get this message and read it. He will become sad and will not be able to do anything about it so this is another reason to write this. You please take care of him on my behalf. I know you will pass my love to him. Also tell him I am only his and nobody's If not this life, then the next, nobody can separate us! Now in the swayamwar my “dholi” will not go it will be my “asti”!
Pratha reads the last sentence.
Sanyo is crying in her room knowing that the message must have reached Pratha.
All have already left and making their way back to Dhilli. In the journey Prithvi says stop to all and the army, some are on horse some are on foot.
We will stop here in the jungle? Pundir objects to it. We will go some more before we stop.
Ask if they are tired, says Prithvi.
Are you all tired Pundir asks them?
No! The army shouts their answer.
See, says Pundir.
See their faces a little bit Prithvi tells Pundir. We will stop right here Prithvi repeats again. They get off their horses. Prithvi sees a tree he goes to it and suddenly an image of Sanyo appears. Sanyogita? He sees her.
Save me Prithvi, she says, Save me. I cannot be far from you. Prithvi take me from here, save me!
Sanyo! Sanyo! Prithvi calls her. He is nothing but hallucinating. Nobody is there after a few seconds.
Come let’s eat first Arjun calls.
Prithvi's mother is doing "arthi" on the idol. Pratha has come to Ajmer from Chittorgarh, she enters the room. Mother is surprised to see her daughter Pratha. She puts down the lamps. You have come here, what is the matter?
Take this message of your success, she answers in an irritated voice.
Who has sent this message?
The Kannauj Princess, Rajkumari Sanyogita her swayamwar is 15 days from now. She has sent this message thinking of him. Are you happy now? You won, you have separated Prithvi and Sanyogita. Pratha is angry. Now they can never be united and she will commit suicide on the same day of swayamwar. You can live in peace and decorate the palace, Pratha tells her mother.
Maharaj Prithviraj Chauhan Ki Jai!
Maharaj Prithviraj Chauhan Ki Jai!
Maharaj Prithviraj Chauhan Ki Jai!
Maharaj Prithviraj Chauhan Ki Jai!
All salute and welcome the 4 into the palace for their victory.
The Manthri consults Raj Purohit, are you going to tell him about the news of Rajkumari Sanyogita?
No! tells the Raj Purohit to the Manthri.
But we must tell Prithvi!
No!
More cheers all are jubilant,
Maharaj Prithviraj Chauhan Ki Jai!
Maharaj Prithviraj Chauhan Ki Jai!
By the time Prithvi, Arjun, Pundir and Chand come to greet Raj Purohit and Prithvi falls on his feet to take the “ashirwad” and his blessings. What is it you look annoyed Prithvi asks him.
It’s nothing you go and rest now.
Prithvi doesn't move and requests the Purohit to tell him what the problem is, now.
Well, in 15 days Maharaj Jaichand of Kannauj is arranging Rajkumari Sanyogita's swayamwar.
Prithvi has finally found out about it.
T Khan wants to assist Ghori. Prithvi looks at the injured Ghori on the ground. All are jubilant and shout, Prithviraj Chauhan Ki jai!

Episode on Saturday, September 13, 2008
In the village, Prithvi and gang with the surviving troops discuss the situation, it is morning, we have lost most of our “sena” we may not be able to bear the war.
We have our "hosla" but more than “hosla” we will get Ghori, Prithvi assures them. I don't intend to wait till "puranvasi ka din" we will attack now. They all cheer Har Har Mahadeo!
Har Har Mahadeo!
Har Har Mahadeo!
Stop! Somebody hails, they all turn, its no other than Pundir he walks in their direction.
Pundir? Prithvi is surprised to see him, of all people.
Punder walks directly to Prithvi, they give each other a big hug. Pundir, I have told you before not to come.
Pundir has come because he was worried for his buddy, thank God nothing happened to you he tells. I wouldn't be able to forgive myself if anything happened to you. I could not just sit there in the palace like a dumb duck when all the things were going on, like that. Don't worry, I will not take the sword he assures his Pal Prithvi.
Chand intervenes to give Pundir a boost, Pundir is right how could he just sit in the palace quietly when all was happening.
"Teek hai" come with us but remember you take no sword, Prithvi warns Pundir.
One village folk, a lady gives blessings to Prithvi for victory.
With blessing from you, why I will not have victory he is grateful to her. Prithvi also is thankful to Mukhiya of the village. They all salute
Maharaj Prithviraj Chauhan Ki Jai!
Maharaj Prithviraj Chauhan Ki Jai!
Maharaj Prithviraj Chauhan Ki Jai!
One unknown person in disguise walks through to join the troops he enters the village. He is none other than Mir Hussain. Mir doesn't want Prithvi to fight alone. I will fight too, even if I have to hide my identity like this.
They have already left the village, all march on, everyone on horse and foot go ahead. After some distance Prithvi says enough we will stop here. Senapati where will Ghori be situated now?
Ghori is near below this mountain, (they are on the other side of it). Prithvi, Arjun, Chand and Senapati all carry on, up the mountain. It is steep they have to crawl part of the way. They finally reach the top of it. They can easily see Ghori's camp below and all the troops, where each of them is stationed.
Chand notices that Ghori has a huge population in his army. Will we be able to handle them?
Prithvi is calm and composed he is not worried at all, just wait till night falls, then we will attack him. Before he even realizes it, Ghori will become "barbad".
Enough Rajkumari Sanyogita, see your hands. The lamp is burning her palms. Roopali requests Sanyo to stop.
Mother comes to Sanyo also, they both plead for her to stop. God has listened, Maharaj has postponed the swayamwar finally.
Yes?
It has been postponed 15 days ahead. By the time Prithvi would have finished the war.
Roopali is convinced, If the swayamwar has been postponed it’s only because of Sanyo.
Yes, my swayamwar will take place 15 days from now, but I will only choose Prithvi.
Roopali applies medicine on Sanyo's scarred hands. I can tolerate anything for this. But doesn’t mean I will keep quiet for 15 days, I must send Maharani Pratha a message.
Why, asks Roopali.
Because I need to respond to Prithvi’s request or it will not be respectful to him, if I don't.
Who will send the message to Chittorgarh then?
I have a remedy for that too. Sanyo walks to the Shiva idol and removes the “trishul”. She uses it to injure her hand.
What you did?
Tell the guards I am hurt and to call the chief vaid. I will request the chief vaid to send the message for me. Go! Tell fast.
Okay!
Sanyo protects the lamps from going out by the wind.
Night has fallen Prithvi orders everyone to go ahead and attack and kill the enemy.
Except for Pundir, he tells him to stay put and not to move from here. All are dressed in black camouflage and black streaks of paint are on their faces. Har Har Mahadeo! Har har Mahadeo! Har Har Mahadeo! All cheer for victory.
Like wise Mir is also disguised in black and follows them.
Another person is behind some distance away, also. It is Pundir, he has not listened to Prithvi at all. I am ready to sacrifice my life to protect Dhilli. They all make their way downhill, Prithvi remembers his dead troops who were poisoned. One by one each of them go down the mountain.
At the bottom of the hill is Ghori and T Khan, they are relaxing and enjoying entertainment. The gang watch them and comment, they are celebrating victory .
Prithvi taunts and says, lets go and change the celebration to "mahtam" Lets go! Ghori's guards stand in a row, they are directly behind them, all are slaughtered one by one. More guards are on vigilance elsewhere, they don’t even notice Prithvi or his gang at all. They sneak up behind them also and slit their throats the next lot is dead too. They walk still further, Pundir is silently following behind.
Ghori is being entertained by acrobats. Prithvi secretly enters one of the tents. He finds some acrobat costume, an extra pair and puts it on. Its red in colour, Prithvi joins the other acrobats. Fire is set on big rings, the next trick is to run through it without touching the flames. Prithvi passes through the ring of fire.
Ghori cheers, Wa! “Bahut kub” Ghori likes what he sees.
Prithvi looks at Ghori and says, you should try and jump yourself, then it will be very good Sultan.
Ghori doesn't recognize the acrobat. He gets up from his seat and walks near Prithvi.
I was joking, leave it. It will not be possible for you to do it. You need "jigar" for this game, Prithvi makes fun of Ghori.
What are you thinking I don't have "jigar"?
Prithvi changes his answer, yes you do, you have lots of "jigar" Prithvi is standing very close to Ghori.
I am not interested in this game at all, but rather see your “jigar” instead, listen, not in this game but my own game, tells Ghori. Mir is also watching Prithvi from a distance behind a tent. One big dart is lying there. Ghori gestures towards that.
Prithvi is ready as usual, he stands in front of the dart, fire, Sultan Ghori! Prithvi tells him. But you must aim and hit properly, if the knife touches me then you are the loser because only accuracy is important. Ghori throws the 1st dagger, it misses Prithvi.
Prithvi asks Ghori, so you are fighting Maharaj Prithviraj Chauhan?
Ghori throws the second knife it misses too.
One more try Sultan, if this misses then it is like you have lost to Prithvi, tells the acrobat (Prithvi).
Ghori aims the knife for the 3rd time, Pundir, Arjun and Chand watch the drama, they are tense not knowing what will happen next. Ghori throws the knife, Prithvi has bent down, (what happened?) Chand, Pundir, and Arjun are shocked (suspense). Nothing has happened, Prithvi has caught the knife with his hands only.
Ghori is annoyed with the result and shouts, No!
Prithvi holds the knife up in the air to display it, then chucks it away. He walks up to Ghori to give him some piece of advice. Here you are allowed to miss, but when you hit in war there should not be any errors, because even one mistake can change the outcome, Prithvi teaches Ghori.
Ghori doesn’t want to take advice from commoners and responds to the acrobat (Prithvi), like you I don’t do “tamasha”, I do "Jung" I am the ustad of "Jung".
It may be “tamasha” or war, likewise it’s still a game, says Prithvi.
Have you faced the battle grounds before and war you can see and fear death openly, while blood spills?
There is not much difference in this and the battle ground, replies Prithvi. You should be ustad of all.
You are talking to much, Ghori tells the acrobat (Prithvi).
Only my tongue speaks now, when the time comes I can also use the sword, when I need to. Prithvi puts his hand behind his back and removes his concealed sword he points it at Ghori's neck.
Hey! What is this! What’s happening here! Ghori is annoyed he orders his troops to kill him. Nobody moves nothing happens to Prithvi. Ghori is helpless he sees all around his men are covered by Prithvi's forces, all are captured. Now is the time, Prithvi slowly peels off his moustache to reveal himself. Ghori looks at his face, he doesn't say a thing. Prithvi still has his sword on M Ghori's neck.
We have our "hosla" but more than “hosla” we will get Ghori, Prithvi assures them. I don't intend to wait till "puranvasi ka din" we will attack now. They all cheer Har Har Mahadeo!
Har Har Mahadeo!
Har Har Mahadeo!
Stop! Somebody hails, they all turn, its no other than Pundir he walks in their direction.
Pundir? Prithvi is surprised to see him, of all people.
Punder walks directly to Prithvi, they give each other a big hug. Pundir, I have told you before not to come.
Pundir has come because he was worried for his buddy, thank God nothing happened to you he tells. I wouldn't be able to forgive myself if anything happened to you. I could not just sit there in the palace like a dumb duck when all the things were going on, like that. Don't worry, I will not take the sword he assures his Pal Prithvi.
Chand intervenes to give Pundir a boost, Pundir is right how could he just sit in the palace quietly when all was happening.
"Teek hai" come with us but remember you take no sword, Prithvi warns Pundir.
One village folk, a lady gives blessings to Prithvi for victory.
With blessing from you, why I will not have victory he is grateful to her. Prithvi also is thankful to Mukhiya of the village. They all salute
Maharaj Prithviraj Chauhan Ki Jai!
Maharaj Prithviraj Chauhan Ki Jai!
Maharaj Prithviraj Chauhan Ki Jai!
One unknown person in disguise walks through to join the troops he enters the village. He is none other than Mir Hussain. Mir doesn't want Prithvi to fight alone. I will fight too, even if I have to hide my identity like this.
They have already left the village, all march on, everyone on horse and foot go ahead. After some distance Prithvi says enough we will stop here. Senapati where will Ghori be situated now?
Ghori is near below this mountain, (they are on the other side of it). Prithvi, Arjun, Chand and Senapati all carry on, up the mountain. It is steep they have to crawl part of the way. They finally reach the top of it. They can easily see Ghori's camp below and all the troops, where each of them is stationed.
Chand notices that Ghori has a huge population in his army. Will we be able to handle them?
Prithvi is calm and composed he is not worried at all, just wait till night falls, then we will attack him. Before he even realizes it, Ghori will become "barbad".
Enough Rajkumari Sanyogita, see your hands. The lamp is burning her palms. Roopali requests Sanyo to stop.
Mother comes to Sanyo also, they both plead for her to stop. God has listened, Maharaj has postponed the swayamwar finally.
Yes?
It has been postponed 15 days ahead. By the time Prithvi would have finished the war.
Roopali is convinced, If the swayamwar has been postponed it’s only because of Sanyo.
Yes, my swayamwar will take place 15 days from now, but I will only choose Prithvi.
Roopali applies medicine on Sanyo's scarred hands. I can tolerate anything for this. But doesn’t mean I will keep quiet for 15 days, I must send Maharani Pratha a message.
Why, asks Roopali.
Because I need to respond to Prithvi’s request or it will not be respectful to him, if I don't.
Who will send the message to Chittorgarh then?
I have a remedy for that too. Sanyo walks to the Shiva idol and removes the “trishul”. She uses it to injure her hand.
What you did?
Tell the guards I am hurt and to call the chief vaid. I will request the chief vaid to send the message for me. Go! Tell fast.
Okay!
Sanyo protects the lamps from going out by the wind.
Night has fallen Prithvi orders everyone to go ahead and attack and kill the enemy.
Except for Pundir, he tells him to stay put and not to move from here. All are dressed in black camouflage and black streaks of paint are on their faces. Har Har Mahadeo! Har har Mahadeo! Har Har Mahadeo! All cheer for victory.
Like wise Mir is also disguised in black and follows them.
Another person is behind some distance away, also. It is Pundir, he has not listened to Prithvi at all. I am ready to sacrifice my life to protect Dhilli. They all make their way downhill, Prithvi remembers his dead troops who were poisoned. One by one each of them go down the mountain.
At the bottom of the hill is Ghori and T Khan, they are relaxing and enjoying entertainment. The gang watch them and comment, they are celebrating victory .
Prithvi taunts and says, lets go and change the celebration to "mahtam" Lets go! Ghori's guards stand in a row, they are directly behind them, all are slaughtered one by one. More guards are on vigilance elsewhere, they don’t even notice Prithvi or his gang at all. They sneak up behind them also and slit their throats the next lot is dead too. They walk still further, Pundir is silently following behind.
Ghori is being entertained by acrobats. Prithvi secretly enters one of the tents. He finds some acrobat costume, an extra pair and puts it on. Its red in colour, Prithvi joins the other acrobats. Fire is set on big rings, the next trick is to run through it without touching the flames. Prithvi passes through the ring of fire.
Ghori cheers, Wa! “Bahut kub” Ghori likes what he sees.
Prithvi looks at Ghori and says, you should try and jump yourself, then it will be very good Sultan.
Ghori doesn't recognize the acrobat. He gets up from his seat and walks near Prithvi.
I was joking, leave it. It will not be possible for you to do it. You need "jigar" for this game, Prithvi makes fun of Ghori.
What are you thinking I don't have "jigar"?
Prithvi changes his answer, yes you do, you have lots of "jigar" Prithvi is standing very close to Ghori.
I am not interested in this game at all, but rather see your “jigar” instead, listen, not in this game but my own game, tells Ghori. Mir is also watching Prithvi from a distance behind a tent. One big dart is lying there. Ghori gestures towards that.
