He replies that he has gone to nirnkush to kill him, as a punishment for what he did to him. she rushes away from there, while all are tensed. she runs on the road and finally catches up on ashoka, walking hastily on the road, in a bid to reach nirankush faster. he sees her, and angrily glares at her asking her not to stop him today, as today he wont listen to her, and shall punish the person who gave veet such pain. she asks if he never thinks of anything else but revenge, and cant he see, as she gets hurt, despite any of her sons getting hurt, doesnt she feel the pain, and from what she saw today, does he see her getting frutrated and disturbed, like he is, getting overwhelmed with the emotions, and taking his life. she says that she wont let him do this today, and that she wont allow him to break the world peace for his inner peace, and in an ordering manner, takes his hand, and turns him around, while he walks with her, rather complacently.
Scene 2:
Location: Nirankush’s fort
Meanwhile nirankush thinks that this is the right time to get ashoka in their grip, as he would come here to avenge the brother’s wounds, and orders his men to catch him alive, this time, as if they fail they wont stay alive. his army leader asks how is he so sure that he shall come. nirankush guffaws that a person who can come and toil so hard and shed his blood, to save his brother, how would he stay quiet after seeing the young brother’s wounds, and shall definitely come back with a vengeance for revenge.
After having waited much, the army leader tells nirankush that ashoka would have arrived by no, if he had to, and that as far as he knows him, he is much more shrewd and knew that if he came here single handedly, he would be outnumbered, and therefore to save his life, he didnt come and must have run away. nirankush is enraged and says that he shall catch him alive.
Scene 3:
Location: Dhaniram’s house
Dharma is busy packing her stuff, asking veet to hurry up too while ashoka fumingly complies. he doesnt allow her to throw away the cloth thats a mark of his revenge. she complies. just then, dhaniram comes in and is boggled and bothered to see them preparing to leave, and says that they could have stayed here, and he knows he might have been angry and demanding at times, but he didnt mean any of it, as now even the rent is paid. she asks him not to think so, as whatever he did, they are grateful and they had to face much due to her, and she wouldnt want to put them and other people in trouble due to them now. his daughter comes and says that this is not the right time to leave. she says that this is the right time, to stealthily abscond. vit tells that he has finished packing. his daughter then goes and gives veet, that he forgot the laddoos, that he is so fond of, and feeds one himself, while he too reciprocates. all are overwhelmed to see this. veet asks her not to hurry as they shall keep coming to visit her, and asks her to keep practising boomerang. dhaniram gets emotional seeing the go. veet amuses them all, giving him his own dhoti for tears. ashoka tensedly, thanks him for letting them stay here, and if they unintentionally hurt them, he apologises. she says that they shouldnt delay any longer.
All gather up, to bid a tearful departure to ashoka and dharma, with veet, while they re oblivious of nirankush increasingly approaching them. they are gone by the time, dhani ram find nirankush with his army, in front of him. his daughter is tensed. he asks dhniram where is ashoka. he replies that they have gone. he is enraged, and demands to know where have they gone. his army catches them, and keeping them captive, he orders for their house to be burnt. they are aghast and watch helplessly, as nirankush burns down their entire house, and it rises up in flames. .
Scene 4:
Location: In the jungles
Dharma and her family start their tiresome journey. vit complains of hunger. ashoka asks them to rest for sometime as they have been waiting for long. they comply. he gets them both down the horse, while she eyes him concenedly. he asks them to wait here, while asking garud, the horse, to take care of the family, while he forages for food. he finally comes across some wild berries, and then suddenly remembers how he had warned kaurvaki from not eating the same type of berries, when they were young, ince they were poisonous. he thinks that she stays alive in his memories, and that once he saved her frome ating those, and today her memory saved him and his family from eating these. he thinks that her memories saved him and his family yet again, and wonders why isnt she near to him, and asks why does this happen to him, that everyone who he loves, leaves him.
Meanwhile, in another part of the jungle, kaurvaku in her tent, gazes at the moon, while bela gets her food. she refuses saying that he isnt hungry. bela asks her not to ignore food, as she has to travel a long journey ahead. but she says that if she keeps resting like this, it would unnecessarily delay her meeting ashoka, and wishes for water. bela leaves. kaurvaki wonders where would ashoka be and in what condition, oblivious of their proximity.
Ashoka comes out of the jungle, and veet is disppointed to find him without food. ashoka clarifies to dharma that there arent any fruits around. they sit down to rest. vit is extremely hungry, while she asks him to have patience. ashoka cites this as her fault, saying tht her swear tied her hands, or else he would have dealt with nirankush by now, and they wouldnt have been foraging right now for food, and that those who are culprits are walking free, whereas they who are innocent, are being punished. she asks him to conquer the inner enemy, first, before external ones, as till he isnt able to control his own anger and emotions, he wouldnt talk about defeating any other enemy, or going to pataliputra. he hastily gets up. he then finds a ight and thinks that he might have arranged for food, oblivious that ts kaurvaki’s tent. she asks him to give her his anger, and that she shall go. he is aghast that the queen of magadh, and shall beg for food. she says that situation and time change anything. he asks what if she is recognise. she says that she can brave any problem when it comes to her family. she leaves with vit, covering her face, while ashoka tensedly watches from a distance.
While she approaches the tent, kaurvaki goes inside. the guard asks who are they and what are they doing here. she asks for food, just for the son. he says that this is the princess’ area,and restrcted, and taunts that when she couldnt feed, why di she give birth. she is aghast to hear this. kaurvaki steps out, asking how dare he talk to a woman like this, and endearingly calls out to vit, reprimanding the guard of having basic decency and mannerisms. he is ashamed. she apologises to dharma on his behalf. dharma is overwhelmed. kaurvaki is amused to see vit, who asks for food. she asks him to stay put, while she herself goes inside and gets food for him. he is thrilled to see it, while dharma smiles.
MEanwhile, ashoka wonders whats taking so long, and decides that he should go and check on dharma. garud reminds him, and he says that he knows he has been told not to hit, but not restricted him on going. from a distance, under the tree, he observes her giving food to vit, unble to identify her. his shadow causes kaurvaki to wonder, when dharma identifies him as her son, that being of strong built, its shameful that they have to beg, in his presence. dharma says that time is most powerful, and the best of kings bow down. kaurvaki apologises, for having spoken hastily and hurting her. dharma is overwhelmed to know that she is apologising. kaurvaki feels a sudden strange connection to her and the silhouette under the tree, oblivious that its her ashoka. the screen freezes on his shadow.
Kaurvaki once again apologizes to Dharma on the behalf of soldier. Dharma is impressed by Kaurvaki’s mannerisms. You are a Rajvanshi yet you are so down to earth. Kaurvaki feels some connection with the lady. She stops her. Your elder son must be hungry as well. She gives them more food. She looks at Vit who smiles at her. Dharma blesses Kaurvaki and leaves.
Dharma and Vit go where Ashoka is standing. Ashoka asks them who she was. Dharma says the one who asks for stuff others have no right to ask names. Come. He turns to go with her when light falls on his necklace. Kaurvaki catches a glimpse of it. I gave a similar one to Ashoka. Bela says you see or think nothing except Rajkumar Ashoka. It would not be him. Wait a little more. We will reach Ujjaini tomorrow.
Kaurvaki is at Dhaniram’s house. It is still burning. A lady talks nicely about Dharma and her family. They also praise Chand. He used to help everyone but never showed it. He used to treat his brother like a prince. He was like a prince only. They all appeared to belong to a royal family only. I am sure there would have been some big problem. Kaurvaki recalls the lady she met last night along with her two sons. She confirms it with the lady. It means that was Rani Dharma and Vit. The elder brother was no one else but my Ashoka. This is why I felt a connection towards them. She smiles happily.
Sushim enjoys getting bit by a snake. Mahamatya stands stunned and looks all freaked out witnessing the scene. The snake dies. Sushim remarks that it has been 10 years playing the cat and mouse game. We did all things but couldn’t find Ashoka. It is all waste. Mahamatya replies that we aren’t defeated till we give up trying. These are mere obstacles. Sushim is in no mood to hear his lectures. You may lose your life if you do it. Siamak says it seems like you lost once again. It isn’t your mistake but of you Indians. Nothing can be done about it. You aren’t fools but biggest fools. What did you get till date by plotting all these things? If you go on like this then you will not get anything ever. You think form your heart. Use your mind for once. One lays prey for the lion to lure him so as to hunt him down. I am sure Ashoka will be more eager to meet you than you are. He will be waiting for a chance to fight with you and kill you. Sushim nods. Siamak suggests him to give Ashoka a chance to do so. Mahamatya likes the idea. Why shouldn’t we open the Nalanda competition for everyone this year? We can open it for everyone to participate. Plus we will announce that you will be participating in it this year. We will make it a national level championship. Ashoka will directly come as soon as he hears it. He will come to his Kaal. Sushim tells him to make an announcement of the same. Mahamatya leaves. Siamak turns to go but Sushim stops him. Why did you say we Indians? What about you? Siamak dismisses it. I gave you a golden chance to catch Ashoka. Focus on that. It is much more important for you. He goes. Sushim thinks he wont spare Ashoka. We will meet really soon!
Rajgir:
A lady shows the house to Dharma. You will find everything here that you may need. Let us know if you need anything. Dharma loves the house. It is very beautiful but it wont be possible for us to pay rent for it. The lady says more than a tenant we needed someone who could look after the house as its own. After meeting you we are sure you are most suitable for it. Plus your mannerisms indicate that you are not from an ordinary family. Don’t worry about it. We got what we wished for.
Ashoka notices people practising wrestling. One man (Bhupal) walks up to him. You will have to work if you wish to live without paying any rent. Dig a pit. Ashoka gets down to work. Dharma is tensed to see the kids fighting. The lady says they (her sons) are doing it since they were a kid. Bhupal wins the competition. Hari tells Ashoka to leave something for tomorrow. the competition will start from tomorrow. There is a lot of time. Dharma thinks it is Ashoks’a birthday tomorrow. Ashoka thinks of the puja and how it was celebrated grandly back at Magadh. He keeps digging the pit.
Bhupal asks Vit to massage his hands. Ashoka looks angry while Dharma stands tensed. Ashoka thinks he has to see such a bad day. My younger brother, Magadh’s Prince has to see such a bad day. Dharma signals him to stop. How do I explain it to you that I am helpless? I have to force you to do all this. Planets have decided a time of 12 years for you. I will not allow you to seek revenge till this time is over.
Ashoka is walking in the market with Garud. Ashoka helplessly talks to Garud. Vit does not know his truth but I know it atleast. I want to give him all the luxuries. Ma has tied me in her swear or I would have ended those devils long ago. Ashoka asks a man if there is some work that he can do. The man denies. The man who forecasted Ashoka’s future (I will address him as Acharya) is also there. Kaurvaki also reaches there. Everyone stands back to see who is here. Ashoka is standing at the back. Ashoka wonders what it that is pulling me to her is. Kaurvaki’s helper asks for someone who can lift all the stuff and take them upstairs. Ashoka offers to do it.
Kaurvaki wishes to take bath. Bela goes to bring her stuff. Kaurvaki is worried for Ashoka. I wonder where he and his family will be and in what condition. Till when will you test me Lord? When will it all finally end?
Bela takes stuff from Ashoka when she notices the necklace around his neck. He notices her looking at it. What happened? She asks him to stop. There is a very important task. Just wait. She rushes inside. The man pays Ashoka for his work and sends him away.
A man makes announcement of the wrestling competition to be held in Nalanda this time. Samrat’s son Sushim will take part in it. You all will witness it. The winner will get 100 gold coins. He will be announced as the Maha Yodha of Magadh.
Acharya thinks it is time for them to come face to face. Ashoka is tempted hearing the prize money. Shall we participate, Garud? Epi ends on the split screen of Ashoka and Sushim. Keep visiting blastersseries.com for fastest updates.
