Devi smiles in relief seeing Ashoka and Kaurvaki returning to palace. Jagannath joins her on the terrace. Why do you seem happy? Treasury coming back does not mean they will be together. Ashoka will have to tell how and from where he got it back. They will then be separated even before their unison. He laughs. Devi gets tensed.

Sushim is drinking when Siamak walks in. He angrily hits at his stuff. Ashoka found the treasury. Your game is up. It is your last day today. I wont leave you today! Their swords clash. Siamak says only you knew the secret of treasury. How could you give it to Ashoka? Sushim says seems like you have lost your mind along with your fingers. Why will I steal it? Siamak asks him who stole them then. They both blame each other. Charu tells them to stop fighting
for no reason. Someone else stole treasury! My Daasi told me that it isn’t anyone else but Jagannath! He did it so he can separate Ashoka and Kaurvaki. He isn’t ready to accept it. Sushim says how it can be. He said yes before everyone. He gave Kaurvaki’s hand in Ashoka’s before everyone. Charu says he only pretended. He even hid it from his own daughter. Kaurvaki helped Ashoka in finding it. Good thing is, Ashoka will have to tell truth to Samrat. We can make use of it by making him feel he mistook Ashoka once again. We have to make him realise he cannot trust Ashoka again. Sushim smiles. Ashoka’s heart will break; he will become weak if he loses Kaurvaki. Siamak adds that such people become weak and broken. We can easily end his story then! Charu advises them to wait for the right time. We will play our move then.
Everyone is gathered in the courtroom. Ashoka walks in just then. He presents the treasury to Bindu. Nothing is missing. BIndu and Dharma look on proudly. Siamak thinks knowing truth does not mean I will forgive you for what you did to me. Bindu asks Acharya RG to shift treasury in its room. Make sure it is very well protected in future. It is the only medium to tackle any upcoming dangers. Acharya RG nods. Sushim and Siamak look unhappy. Bindu demands to know who stole the treasury. Who is that traitor? Jagannath smirks. What will you do now Ashoka? You will lose Kaurvaki if you take a name. If you don’t then you will lose your father’s trust. Sushim wonders if Ashoka got any clue against them. Bindu repeats his question. Ashoka’s silence surprises Dharma. Why isn’t he taking any name? Jagannath asks Ashoka why he isn’t telling the name of Magadh’s biggest traitor. Why does it seem that you are trying to save him? I had heard you are a great prince, with all the qualities of becoming a Samrat. Right now it looks as if you are on the culprit’s side. Ashoka replies that he cannot tell him the name. Please forgive me. Dharma asks him why he is saving a traitor.
Jagannath doubts it might be Ashoka only who is behind this. He might have planned to trap Sushim and Siamak. Sushim seconds him. Bindu asks Ashoka about the culprit. Tell us, son. I have been with you always. I would have been till my last time but I am unable to stop everyone today. your silence is making me doubt things as well. Do you know who is responsible for this crime? Ashoka answers in positive. Bindu reasons that as a Magadh Samrat, as a saviour of his citizens, he has every right to know it. You have last chance. ashoka says pardon me. I would have taken it already if I could. Siamak too raises his doubt on Ashoka. He was jealous of me. he dint want me to go to Takshshila. He plotted against me. Sushim, Charu, Mahamatya and Siamak blame Ashoka. Jagannath follows them. Family members aren’t lying. Kaurvaki is hurt.
Bindu asks Ashoka to tell the truth or he will forget their relation. Ashoka’s silence only increases his anger. Tell me the truth or fight with your father! Jagannath thinks Ashoka’s end is near. If you keep quiet then you will die by your father’s hand. If you tell truth then you will die without Kaurvaki. Ashoka says I am sorry. I can neither tell you nor fight with you. Bindu challenges him for a fight to prove he is his son. Pick up your sword if you are a Mauryavanshi. Prove that you have the same royal blood like me. Dharma tries to stop him. Don’t you trust Ashoka? Our son will not hide anything from us until he has valid reasons. He might be compelled for some reason. Charu intervenes. Ashoka is your favourite son but it does not entitle him to do wrong. He is going against Samrat’s decision before everyone. Dharma tries to reason yet again but Bindu tells her against it. He walks up to Ashoka angrily with his sword (my bad guys, I am really sorry ). Take out your sword if you are a true Mauryavanshi. Ashoka reluctantly obliges. Jagannath smirks.
Dharma tries to stop Samrat but he pushes her. She gets hurt on her head. Devi rushes to her side. Ashoka angrily attacks his father. Bindu says you can save yourself but not the culprit. Ashoka speaks of his promise he has made to someone. I cannot break it. He gets hurt in the process. Bindu says protecting motherland was your biggest duty. There was nothing more important to you than that Dharma shouts at them to stop.
They are shocked to see her pointing dagger at her neck. She asks Ashoka to take the name of the culprit. Who are you trying to protect over Patliputra? I cannot see my son and husband fighting with one another. Tell me the name or I will kill myself. Ashoka stops her. He throws the dagger away. Kaurvaki speaks up. Ashoka is trying to save my father! Everyone is stunned. Kaurvaki says yes, my father is the one who stole treasury. He has not just cheated me but you, Ashoka, Magadh and its people. Father and son are fighting today because of him only. Every word is true. Ashoka tries to stop but she says I cannot be this selfish. I cannot let you fall in the eyes of your father, your family to save my family. I pushed you for it but I have realised my mistake.
Trust me Samrat. Like you, I too dint know my father came here with some other intention. The moment I realised it I wanted to tell everyone. I became emotional, selfish. I cannot imagine my life without him. I couldn’t see anything except him. I have lived every second of my life with this dream. I was scared that it might break so I took promise from Ashoka to keep mum. My dream would break otherwise. We wont be able to marry. Ashoka turns to his father (who looks upset). He drops down on his knees and keeps his word in his father’s feet. Forgive me. I got in a fix for the first time as it was you and Kaurvaki. I was thinking if I am taking this decision to save my love. I wouldn’t have just lost my love but Kalinga and Magadh wouldn’t have come together ever then. we could have lost the golden chance to unite these states, to fulfil my Guru’s dream. I dint want it to happen. It may be that I became selfish for the first time. Please forgive me. Dharma and Kaurvaki cry. BIndu walks out of the courtroom even when Kaurvaki requests him to stop. Please don’t punish Ashoka for the crime committed by my father.
Dharma comes to Bindu’s room. He says my own son is playing such games with me. Dharma says if they believed they could not then would they have done it. he asks her to understand what
She corrects him. Ask why instead of what. You need to find answer to that. He has no patience of riddles he says. She says even I cannot hide things from you anymore. It is my son’s ill fate as he never gets his father’s trust. He is our son. he is the best amongst all your sons. That daasi putra did his duty. He loves you, respects you even after you sent him away 14 years on exile. Whatever he has done till date, he did everything to make you feel proud. He does everything to prove himself in your eyes time and agian.
How did you prize him? You prize him by blaming him for anything that goes wrong even when he isn’t at fault. Bindu keeps thinking about what she says. Dharma says he had a pure intention yet you raised sword on him. I would have lost either my son or husband today had I not intervened.
My son never had any wrong intention. He has always proved that his acts, decisions are for Magadh’s good. You don’t trust Acharya Chanakya? Would he have chosen Ashoka if he dint trust him? No, he chose no one else but our son Ashoka. It is his destiny. Acharya trusted him even when Ashoka was a kid. His faith never wavered in Ashoka yet Ashoka was always accused for something or the other by you. Do you know whose weakness is that? Yours! Our enemies always knew you will not waste even a second to take a stand against Ashoka, to blame him even at the slightest time. They have made full use of it. He is still standing strong though. I am surprised to see the father of such a kid not trust him. Is this what you mean by calling him your beloved son? If this is love then I believe it to be more of a curse than blessing. Parents give their kids their everything. Sadly, I cannot do it alone. She cries. Bindu asks her to call Ashoka.
Ashoka comes to his father’s room. He folds his hands before him. BIndu says if what your mother said is true then you have a lot to say to me. Ashoka says you had to be embarrassed today in front of everyone because of me. Bindu says it isn’t about me but you today. Tell me entire truth, the truth that has been hidden from me till date. I want to know about the enemies staying near me who I could not recognize even after seeing them. Dharma too tells Ashoka to speak up. Ashoka says Guru Chanakya left a message for me just before he died. He had written that our worst / biggest enemies aren’t the ones outside the palace. They are inside the palace only. It clearly hinted at my brothers, Charu, Helena and mahamatya.
Past incidents are shown. Dharma cries. Ashoka adds that he had no proof against them so they have been roaming around carefree. They have tried to kill me many times, to make me weak and to harm my family. He related all the instances to his father. I dint let them win though. Their attacks only strengthened my mission. Bindu asks him if he missed anything. Ashka thinks about Siamak’s truth. Dharma signals him against it so Ashoka does not tell it to his father. Bindu asks Ashoka what he would have done if he was in his place. Ashoka replies that those who have killed Gurudev are culprits. They should be killed asap as they are the biggest traitors of Magadh. I wouldn’t waste even a minute in doing it. Bindu says not now. kaurvaki was right. Killing culprits isn’t as important as saving the good. Hope no innocent gets caught in this. Kaurvaki isn’t responsible for what happened. First the wedding will happen and then the decision.
I pray that no one gets stuck in the same situation which I have to as a father, as a husband. I promise you today I will give you full freedom to do what is right after your marriage. Not even one traitor should escape then. Be it Mahamatya, Charu or my sons! You will kill them all. You will free our motherland from their sins. I was your biggest obstacle in your dream till date. Now I will become your first ladder in your dream to united India. I will make sure you become Chakravartin Ashoka Samrat to fulfil Acharya’s dream, your mother’s dream. That will build united India after all! Ashoka touches his feet. Bindu blesses him to be victorious. Dharma is touched. Father son duo share a hug. BIndu wishes to tackle Jagannath first so the wedding can happen without any glitch. Ashoka asks him if Jagannath will agree. Bindu is sure about it.
Jagannath asks Devi and Kaurvaki if they still think he wasn’t right. The father and son dint waste any chance to raise swords at each other.
Dint you see it? Do you still think this place is safe? Kaurvaki’s mother too tells Kaurvaki to come with her. This place is not right for you. You will never be happy here. No mother would want her daughter to stay in such a place. Devi says if you really cared about Kaurvaki then you wouldn’t have been saying this right now. Jagannath tells her to stay out of their family matter. Devi says you will be surely punished by Samrat. If you get to live then you will not be free from the sin of killing your daughter ever. Jagannath asks her what she means. She says I have not come to that Raja Jagannath who I saw breaking apart on that river shore that day. I have come to that cruel, ruthless father who does not want his daughter to marry Ashoka for his own selfish reasons. Kaurvaki will die many times if you do that. Do something that she wont feel responsible for your crime. Bindu says it isn’t necessary.
Kaurvaki greets Samrat. Surely my marriage will break because of the truth coming out. I will lose everything. My dreams will reamin incomplete. I will be living lifeless. I accept your every decision but I request you not to mistake Ashoka. He is innocent. You got your treasury back. I will leave from Magadh for forever. I will never come back. Forgive my father. he did it all to stop my marriage. He wanted good for me. Let the dream of Magadh and Kalinga be fulfilled. It will be a big step in Ashoka’s dream of united India. Please don’t punish him. Bindu tells her to stop. You have said enough. Let me speak now. He turns to Jagannath.
The moment I came to know you are the one who stole the treasury I felt like killing you and hanging your body on Magadh’s crossroad so everyone can know how a traitor is punished. Then I thought to punish you in the worst way possible – by marrying Kaurvaki to Ashoka. Jagannath says you will do so but Ashoka wont go ahead when I will say no. Bindu reasons that there must be something which will change his decision.
Jagannath says the biggest thing is that I hate your son Ashoka. Bindu tells him to think through. I am ready to pay any amount for it. Keep visiting blastersseries.com for fastest updates.
